Emery High hosted their annual high school rodeo on April 15 at the Carbon County rodeo grounds.
Emery rodeo club members did very well at the event. Justin Miller placed fourth in bareback. Tawn Jewkes competed in poles and breakaway. Kelby Farnsworth competed in poles and barrels. Jacob Marshall and Chris Wilson competed in bull riding and Zac Jensen and Wacey Allred did team roping. Wacey Allred placed second in bull riding. Colton Grange did team roping and calf roping. Brock Winn did saddlebronc and was seventh in team roping with partner Devin Day from Juab. Jaden Bagley was fifth in bareback. Andy Sitterud was 11th in calf roping. Cade Whittle was fourth in cutting. Lacey Branson participated in barrels and breakaway.
Junior Spartan wrestlers recently completed their season with closing matches. The wrestlers all received medals and T-shirts. Coaches from throughout the county helped the young wrestlers learn new skills.
Junior Kyler Edgehouse picked up two wins in pitching Emery to region wins over Delta and North Sanpete in high school baseball. Emery defeated Delta 7-2 before the spring break and then returned after the break to defeat the Hawks 16-5.
Edgehouse started the North Sanpete game by giving up a homerun to the leadoff batter. The Hawks scored one more run in the inning to buoy their spirits as they looked for their first region win. The joy was short lived.
Edgehouse allowed two more runs in the third inning and Trevor Komar pitched the fifth inning and allowed an additional run.
Trevor Thompson, Emery's leading batter, led off the first inning with a strikeout. Ryne Jones and Ryan Draper both walked before Blake Mortensen also struck out. With two out and two on, Dave Justice walked, Edgehouse walked, Josh Eden walked and then Landon Thomas got on via an error by the Hawk second baseman. Kade Jones then got Emery's first hit of the game and picked up two RBI's. Emery now led 5-2.
Thompson, still Emery's leading batter, came up for the second time in the inning and promptly tripled scoring two more runs. Jones was up to bat again and this time tripled scoring Thompson. Draper walked for the second time, Mortensen got a single this time up and Justice was hit by a pitch. Edgehouse got on board due to another Hawk error before Eden finally ended the inning with a ground out. Twelve Emery batters scored in the first inning. All after two outs.
Emery scored four more times in the second inning as Thomas walked, Thompson doubled, Jones singled and Mortensen's fly ball to left field was dropped. Justice added a single and Emery had four more runs. Emery played JV players the last inning and a half in the victory.
In the Delta game, Emery scored once in the second inning, once in the fourth inning, twice in the fifth inning and three times in the sixth inning. Delta only scored twice in the fifth inning. This loss is Delta's only region loss of the season. Edgehouse picked up the win. He allowed eight hits over the seven innings and struck out 10 batters.
Emery's second inning score was by Edgehouse. He had singled before Draper brought him home with a triple.
Emery's fourth inning score was by Justice. He got on via a dropped third strike and was brought home on a double by Ryne Jones.
Thomas and Eden each singled to start the fifth inning. After a Thompson sacrifice fly, Edgehouse and Justice each singled and Emery had two more runs.
Ryne Jones, Mortensen and Thomas scored Emery's final runs. Jones singled, Blake tripled and Thomas singled. Eden then walked and Thompson singled for Emery's last base hit.
Thomas led the way with three base hits as the Spartans finished the game with 13 base hits.
Emery is on the road next week as they travel to Granite and Carbon for more exciting region baseball. On Thursday, Emery will host Manti in a non-region game.
There is good news, there is bad news and then there is better news. Sometimes you just do not know what order in which they come or in what category they fit.
The good news is that I lost 15 pounds in less than a week. It is absolutely amazing how much better one feels with just a measly 15 pounds less being toted around on the body.
The bad news is that no one else will want to follow my example. You cannot, or at least should not, duplicate my efforts. It would not necessarily be a pleasant experience for any of you. It was not for me.
The better news is that things are improving and that life is returning to almost normal. All right I hear you snickering, I hear you thinking "almost normal", there is no way. You have never been almost normal.
There is a saying on my wall by Les Brown that says "No one gets out of the game of life alive. You either die in the bleachers or on the field. So you might as well come out on the field and go for it!"
So I did. I went out on the field, and even though the results are not what any person would hope for and it hurt like heck, I am glad that I did. (Heck is what we said growing up in Idaho when we could not say h-e- double toothpick.)
I agreed to be one of those people that everybody loves to yell at and curse and call names and wonder if you are blind and every other manner of harassment. I umpired a softball game at the high school, a sophomore game no less.
I was told repeatedly "These are sophomores, you need shin guards."
They were emphatic about it but I was bull headed. I'll be all right. They insisted, "NO these are sophomores, you will need them." I did not listen.
Well they were wrong, I did not need them. What I needed was for the Delta pitcher not to pitch early. What I needed was for the pitch that the Delta pitcher pitched early to be low not high. What I needed was for the pitch that the Delta pitcher pitched early that should have been low and not high to not be fouled off by the batter. What I needed was a different set of circumstances.
As I returned to the plate after a call in field, just as I was returning the mask to its rightful place of protecting my face from errant balls, here came the above scenario.
And it was not pretty and it kinda hurt. Fans in the stands thought they saw pieces of teeth flying. All I knew was I had a mouth full of blood and a hole along my tooth line. I cut my bottom lip deeply and lost my two front teeth. In a mirror I thought I looked like a character out of Lord of the Rings. You know which ones.
Well to cut to the chase, liquids are what I had for a week, could not chew, could not even use a straw. I dribbled more than once, as I could not control my lower lip into doing the right thing. So that brings us back to the good news, I lost weight and I feel better, and the saga continues.

Countdown to US Independence Day 2008 – Top 10 National Parks – Bryce Canyon National ParkMonday, June 30th, 2008
One of America's greatest treasures is its National Park system. Today there are nearly 400 national parks in every state in the Union except Delaware.
So join us as we continue our countdown to Independence Day 2008 with a look at our top ten national parks. Why not visit one of them this 4th of July to truly experience America?
Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah
Best known for its stunning red rock spires, Bryce Canyon offers the outdoor-loving family a host of adventures in one of America's largest national parks. The park covers a 2000-foot range of elevation, peaking at 9,100 feet along the rim.
If you're visiting for Independence Day, you might enjoy a four-hour, wrangler-guided horseback ride into the canyon, a day-long hike along a canyon trail, or a sunset stroll around the canyon's rim. Who needs fireworks with views like these?
Plan on warm temperatures for July days, with cool nights.
Entrance Fees: $25 per private car, but parking is at a real premium in Bryce Canyon — there's just one space for every four cars that enter, so consider availing yourself of the park's free shuttle service
For more information: Visit www.nps.gov/brca or call Visitor Information at (435) 834-5322.
Check back each day for another Top 10 National Park (or you can cheat and check out our top 10 parks here).

Travel Like The Great Gatsby
Channel your inner Gatsby. Travel "ceaselessly back into the past" of the opulent Jazz Age touring the grand mansions on Long Island's Gold Coast and Newport's Cliff Walk. Daisy not included.
The PlazaStart your Gatsby tour at N.Y.C.'s Plaza hotel, the setting for one of the book's most climatic scenes. Today, the Plaza gives a hat tip to its role in the American classic. Designed with Art Deco touches, the hotel's Fitzgerald Suite will have you waking up feeling like you're Daisy Buchanan. 960 1280
Oheka CastleThis Gold Coast mansion was one of the inspirations for Fitzgerald's depiction of Gatsby's mansion. Today, the French-style chateau is the second-largest private residence still standing in America. In the 1920s, philanthropist Otto Kahn threw Gatsby-esque parties on this lavish 443-acre estate, entertaining royalty and Hollywood stars. Oheka was also featured in the 1941 classic, "Citizen Kane." 960 1280
Coe HallChannel Daisy Buchanan as you stroll through the splendid gardens at this historic Gold Coast estate's Planting Fields Arboretum. After you take in the estate's restored Italian garden, tour the 65-room Tudor Revival-style house museum, whose original pieces and furnishings offer a look into the opulence of the Jazz Age. 960 1280
FalaiseTransport yourself back in time to Long Island's lavish past with a guided tour of this Normandy-style Guggenheim mansion built in 1923. The waterfront estate, overlooking Long Island Sound, is one of three mansions on Sands Point Preserve -- you're sure to get lost in the splendor of this surrounding, 216-acre nature preserve. 960 1280
Vanderbilt MuseumSee how the Vanderbilts lived in the Gilded Age at this the 43-acre museum complex. Tour the 24-room Spanish Revival mansion for a look inside the decadence and promise of the era. With one of the most impressive views of the Long Island Sound, this mansion will leave you feeling like Gatsby looking for the green light across the water. 960 1280
Nassau County Museum of ArtYou don't have to travel to N.Y.C. to see amazing art. In the heart of Long Island's famed Gold Coast lies the former Frick Estate, once home to the co-founder of U.S. Steel. Today the Georgian mansion houses an intimate museum filled with art from the 19th and 20th centuries. An impressive sculpture park is also located on the 145-acre estate, with more than 40 sculptures. 960 1280
Glenmere MansionTalk about drama. With a Gatsby-like motivation, real estate baron Robert Goelet built this Italian villa in the Hudson Valley in 1911 to woo back a woman -- his wife, who was having an affair with an Italian man. Thus the impetus to design this 150-acre estate reminiscent of a Tuscan villa with marbled staircases and gardens that rival Italy's Boboli Gardens. Today the mansion is reborn as a luxury hotel that would impress the likes of Gatsby's houseguests. 960 1280
The BreakersAmerica's elite in the 1920s summered in East Egg-esque majestic mansions in Newport, R.I. One of the grandest, The Breakers, was built by the Vanderbilts on Newport's famous Cliff Walk. A stunning 138,000 square feet of awe-inspiring grandeur made it a perfect setting for parts of the 1974 film version of "The Great Gatsby." 960 1280
RosecliffThis Newport mansion on spectacular Bellevue Avenue was used for Gatsby's home in the 1974 film version of "The Great Gatsby." Modeled after the Grand Trianon, the garden retreat of French kings at Versailles, this magnificent estate is now used for weddings and other lavish events. 960 1280
Vanderbilt GraceYou'll feel like you're a guest at Gatsby's mansion at this luxurious 33-room hotel. Reveling in the Gilded Age, the hotel is offering a Gatsby package that includes a champagne breakfast, tickets to the iconic Newport mansions and a five-course dinner at in-house restaurant Muse. The restaurant even includes an updated version of a meal served at The Breakers back in the 1920s. 960 1280

Meadow Brook Hall (Rochester Hills, MI)Explore the fourth-largest historic home in the United States. Spanning 110 rooms, the 88,000 square-foot mansion was built in a Tudor Revival style, between 1926 and 1929, by the widow of auto pioneer John Francis Dodge. The mansion and surrounding 1,400-acre grounds were donated to Michigan State University in 1957. 960 1280
Hearst Castle (San Simeon, CA)This Mediterranean Revival-style mansion was designed for newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst by Julia Morgan, the first woman architect licensed in California. Morgan's vision, shaped over the course of a 28-year collaboration with Hearst, features 56 bedrooms, 61 bathrooms, 19 sitting rooms, 127 acres of gardens and so much more -- including the world's largest private zoo. 960 1280
Flagler Museum (Palm Beach, FL)Once hailed by a New York newspaper as "more wonderful than any palace in Europe, grander and more magnificent than any other private dwelling in the world," this 55-room mansion, built by oil tycoon Henry Flagler in 1901, later came close to demolition -- until one of Flagler's granddaughters saved it in 1959. You'll need a good 2 hours to tour the property -- must-see stops include the Louis XV-style Grand Ballroom and the atrium garden. 960 1280
Hillwood Estate (Washington, DC)Post Cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post had 3 estates, including Mar-a-Lago on Palm Beach Island. Donald Trump now owns that one, but the real star of Post's collection is Hillwood Estate. Post loved this urban oasis in the heart of DC more than any of her other estates -- her ashes are interred in the estate's Rose Garden. The biggest draw is the estate's decorative arts collection, from Faberge eggs to 18th and 19th-century French art. 960 1280
Stan Hywet Hall & Gardens (Akron, OH)This swanky country estate ranks as the 12th largest house in the United States. The Tudor Revival-style home, which originally spanned 3,000 acres (it's now on 70 acres), was built between 1912 and 1915 by the founder of the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company. Above the manor's front door is a stone inscription: "Non nobis solum," meaning, "Not for us alone." In keeping with that motto, the estate is open seasonally to the public. 960 1280
Edsel and Eleanor Ford House (Grosse Pointe Shores, MI)This 87-acre estate, just northeast of Detroit, was the home of Edsel Ford (Henry's son) and his wife, Eleanor. Before her death in 1976, Eleanor stated that the property be used for the "benefit of the public." Today, visitors can tour the 20,000-square-foot home to see the intimate family photos that take you back to 1927, when the home was built, and beyond, to the home's heyday in the 1940s. On the grounds, be sure to check out Josephine Ford's child-sized playhouse, built by her grandmother in 1930. 960 1280
Oheka Castle (Huntington, NY)Head to Long Island's Gold Coast for a tour of this sprawling estate -- the second-largest private home in the US. The estate comprises 127 rooms and over 109,000 square feet. Oheka was built between 1914 and 1919 to serve as the country home of investment banker Otto Hermann Kahn (the name Oheka is an acronym for his name). Oheka also served as partial inspiration for Gatsby's estate in Fitzgerald's novel. 960 1280
Moody Mansion (Galveston, TX)Step into turn-of-the-century splendor at this sprawling 28,000-square-foot, 4-story mansion. Completed in 1895, the estate was the home of American financier William Lewis Moody Jr. – once proclaimed by TIME magazine to be one of the 10 wealthiest men in America. Now a museum, the estate offers tours of 20 rooms. Among the beautiful touches is a gold leaf ceiling in the dining room. 960 1280
Virginia Robinson Estate (Beverly Hills)Beverly Hills is home to plenty of jaw-dropping homes, but only one is open to public tours. This 6-acre estate, once home to Harry and Virginia Robinson (of Robinson's department store), was built in 1911. The estate's architectural highlight is its playhouse/pool pavilion, which was added in 1924. Its memorable features include a reflecting swimming pool, as well as Tuscan columns and arches with sgraffiti, an Italian style of wall décor similar to fresco. 960 1280
Pabst Mansion (Milwaukee)This Flemish Renaissance Revival-style beaut was home to German-American beer baron Frederick Pabst between 1892 and 1908. The property was later purchased by the Archdiocese of Milwaukee, and for the next 67 years, it served as home to 5 archbishops. Centrally located in downtown Milwaukee, the estate is open year-round to the public, offering visitors a chance to behold the estate's signature feature: intricate woodwork. 960 1280
Glensheen (Duluth, MN)This 7.6-acre estate was built between 1905 and 1908 by lawyer and businessman Chester Adgate Congdon. The lakefront property features 38 rooms, and an exterior inspired by neoclassical French and English touches. Throughout the house are fine works of art by American and European masters of the day. But the mansion also has a dark side: In 1977, Congdon's daughter and her nurse were murdered here. While tour guides at the mansion were once prohibited from speaking about the murders, today they'll speak briefly about it ... upon request. 960 1280
Staatsburgh State Historic Site (Dutchess County, NY)This gorgeous home in the tranquil hamlet of Staatsburg, NY, is regarded by architecture scholars as one of the finest examples of an estate built during America's Gilded Age. Tour the grounds and see a massive portico, balustrades, floral swags and pilasters that all add up to one big impression: The owners sure had it good here. 960 1280
Biltmore Estate (Asheville, NC)In the mountains of Asheville, NC, this luxurious Châteauesque-styled mansion awaits. Built by George Washington Vanderbilt II between 1889 and 1895, Biltmore is the largest privately owned house in America – it spans an astonishing 178,926 square feet and 250 rooms.

The US Grant Hotel (California)A fixture of downtown San Diego, the U.S. Grant Hotel, was built by Ulysses S. Grant Jr. (yes, the famous president's son.)

America's Most Luxurious Mansion Hotels 14 Photos
Forks, WashingtonForks, WA, a sleepy small town in the Pacific Northwest, sprang to life with the Twilight phenomenon. The rainiest town in the US, averaging 212 days of rain a year, was the perfect setting for author Stephenie Meyer to base her Twilight book series. Where else would a family of sun-fearing vampires live? 960 1280
Forks, Twilight TownThe Twilight craze breathed new life into the town of Forks, WA. "Twihards" from around the world flock to this wet town on the Olympic Peninsula to see the locations from the books and films. Forks, a 3-stoplight town, welcomes fans to explore its darker side, embracing its official "Twilight" town status. 960 1280
The Cullen HouseThe Miller Tree Inn in Forks, WA, is named the "Cullen House" by the town of Forks. While it resembles the book's description of the Cullen's home, it looks nothing like the movie version. That doesn't stop fans from relishing in the Twilight theme here, with innkeepers who speak "Twilight" and Twilight memorabilia scattered throughout the inn. 960 1280
La Push Beach, WashingtonLa Push, a mere 12 miles from Forks, is home to the Quileute people. In the Twilight saga, Jacob and his wolf pack hail from the reservation. Whether you're on Team Jacob or Team Edward, La Push is worth a visit to see some of the most stunning beaches on the Olympic Peninsula. 960 1280
Volterra, ItalyThe ancient Italian city Volterra is where the powerful vampires Volturi reside in the Twilight saga. In the film version of Twilight's New Moon, the Volterra scenes were actually filmed in the Italian town Montepulciano. Vampire-scouting aside, both are charming towns that should be part of any Tuscany tour, thanks to their medieval architecture and some of the best wine tasting in Italy. 960 1280
Jacob's JavaLa Push's Quileute people welcome the new interest in their tribe as a result of the Twilight craze. In the saga, Jacob leads young Quileute men who shapeshift into wolves and are tasked with guarding the reservation from vampires. Fans can stop by Jacob's Java espresso stand in La Push for a cup of famous Washington coffee and perhaps a little werewolf scouting. 960 1280
Hoh Rain ForestThe Hoh Rain Forest, lying outside the town of Forks, WA, can get up to 12 feet of rain a year, earning the status of one of the wettest spots in the world. The gloomy skies and towering trees (over 200 feet high and 500 years old) make it the perfect setting for vampire and werewolf battles in Twilight. 960 1280
Denali, AlaskaVegetarian vampires? They exist in this vampire saga. In Twilight, humans are safe from the Denali coven that dwell in Denali, AL. With a large supply of game in the Denali National Park, the Denali vampires feast on wild animals versus humans. With six million acres of stunning wilderness, Denali appeals to us for its lack of humans, too. 960 1280
Port Angeles, WashingtonIn Twilight, Port Angeles is the often the small-town escape for teenagers in Forks -- whether to watch a movie, shop for prom dresses or to have their first date with a vampire. Located in the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains, Port Angeles gets significantly less rain than other areas of Washington -- hardly good news for sun-fearing vampires traveling through here. 960 1280
Paraty, BrazilIf you were a vampire who'd just gotten married, where would you go on your honeymoon? A private island in Brazil, of course. While the book's Isle Esme is fictional, the Breaking Dawn film was shot in Paraty, Brazil. You can even rent the house in Paraty, where Bella and Edward's honeymoon scene was filmed, for a mere $4,000 a day. The romantic paradise can only be accessed by boat or helicopter; it even has its own private beach. 960 1280

After having struggled for most of this season, the Emery Spartans finally got a region win and lost a close one as time ran out against the North Sanpete Hawks in Mt. Pleasant.
Emery downed Carbon in Castle Dale by a score of 69-58 as sophomore Nevin Jensen had a good game for Emery. Nevin scored 15 points in the second quarter and another 11 points in the fourth quarter to lead Emery with 26 points.
Carbon won the odd quarters while Emery won the even quarters. Carbon won the first period 12-11 and the third period 17-7. Emery won the second quarter 28-14 and the final period 23-14 to get the win.
Emery shot the 3-point shot often and well. Nevin hit five of them in the game. Karson Jensen and Jordan Gee each hit a pair of 3�s and Dempsey hit another to give Emery 10 for the game.
Gee finished the game with 15 points in maybe his best outing of the year. Karson scored 10 points, Dempsey Jeffs scored 8 points, and Colton Barnett scored 6 points and really helped the Emery cause with some great defensive play in the paint. Colton is only a sophomore but showed lots of promise as he blocked shot after shot. Tyler Killpack and Cameron Hansen each scored 2 points.
At North Sanpete, Emery shot the 3-point shot maybe as well as any team ever has but they still lost a heartbreaker. North Sanpete prevailed 87-85 over the Spartans.
Emery finished this game with 17 three-pointers. That is not a mistake; they had 17 of them things and still did not win. Not only did they score a lot of them, they shot them well. In the first half, Emery made 10 of 13 shots behind the arc as four different Spartans hit them. Dempsey paced the team as he hit all four shots that he took plus went 5 for 6 at the 3-point line to finish the first half with 17 points.
Karson hit three 3-pointers, Nevin hit a pair of them and Cameron hit one. Emery led after the first period 27-23 and at the half 45-37. Besides Jeffs, Karson and Nevin were also already in double figures for scoring with 11 and 10 points respectively.
The second half did not go as well for Emery as the smaller Spartans got pushed around inside by the bulkier Hawk team. Tyler Killpack fouled out with 4:32 left in the fourth period, Colton Barnett followed 59 seconds later and then Jordan followed 1:29 later.
North Sanpete�s size advantage allowed them to get off several shot attempts each time down the floor as the Spartans could not out muscle them.
After having been down, Dempsey tied the score at 80 apiece with 2:33 left in the game as he hit another 3-point shot, was fouled and then put the free throw in for a 4-point play. With 1:57 left, Emery could have got within 1 point but a pair of free throws by Gatlan Huntington bounced out. Ten seconds later, North Sanpete turned over the ball and Cameron Hansen scored a basket and Emery trailed 83-82. Emery took the lead with :33 left on a 3-point shot by Karson Jensen as Emery led 85-84. At :17.4 seconds left, Dempsey, by now almost exhausted from the pace of the play, was fouled and missed a pair of free throws. North Sanpete scored the last three points to get the win.
Jeffs finished the game with six 3-pointers, 13 of 20 at the free throw line and 33 points. Karson Jensen finished with five 3-pointers, 3 of 3 at the line and 20 points. Nevin Jensen finished with three 3-pointers and 13 points. Gatlan Huntington had a pair of 3�s and six points. Cameron Hansen had a 3-pointer and 5 points. Jordan Gee and Killpack each had 4 points.
You would be tempted to say that Emery lost the game at the line as they were 16 for 28 but that would be wrong. North Sanpete was no better as they were 18 for 38 at the line. This game was our outside shooting, which we did well, against their bulkiness inside and their many more shot attempts. Although a win would have been nice, the effort of the team was truly appreciated by the fans at the game. The effort was a total team effort and the excellent play of Tyler in the middle kept Emery in the game as long as they were.
Emery now starts the second half of region play with their eye on winning the rest of their games. They now know that they can compete. Emery hosts Wasatch Tuesday night and then hosts Juan Diego this Friday night.

Cute shoe

Good, mid-height heel for a long night out
"I bought these sandals for a formal event in the gold color; I was pleased that the color was more antique/dark gold than bright gold. Went well with my dark brown evening gown!Great heel height for a long night out -- we walked to and from our event (about 3/4 mile each way) and I was on my feet pretty much the whole night. By the time I got home, I was definitely ready to take them off, but it wasn't the worst I've experienced, and for that amount of time on my feet? Not bad at all.The shoes are pretty basic in terms of construction -- not the comfiest soles and a bit narrow, but I have narrow feet, so not a problem. Honestly, for the price, this is a great shoe. And if you're not on your feet the whole night, you'll probably be even happier with them than I was!"

Why do we tell stories?
To further understand how we must change the way we produce and present our narratives for digital distribution (I've written a first article about this subject here), I wanted to learn why we, as humans, need stories and storytelling.

Classic but interesting!
"I have these in black and teal. The black is very classic (appropriate for work) but the heel/platform make them sexy in a subtle way. The teal are a little more green than blue - and fairly bright - but interesting with an otherwise boring outfit (e.g., black career dress). Overall, a good buy at full price but a GREAT buy on sale. They take a while to break in, though."

Nice but....
"I thought the shoe was gorgeous, sexy, & sleek; to be rocked with skinny jeans, wide leg jeans, dresses. pencil skirts, the possibilites are endless. It is a really versatile shoe that should be a staple in a woman's wardrobe. The only flaw is that the front side of the tip of the shoe has some sort of smudge. Therefore, I have to get a replacement. Otherwise the heels would have been perfect."

Sixpoint Craft Ales and Pacific Standard Brew A Craft Beer Love Child
Brooklyn was one of the biggest beer brewing cities in the country from the 1870's until the 1950's. When Rheingold and Schaefer closed their doors in 1976, the industry disappeared completely from the borough until craft brewers like Red Hook's Sixpoint Craft Ales, along with Williamsburg's Brooklyn Brewery and Clinton Hill's Kelso of Brooklyn, began pioneering a revival over the last decade.
Since their debut in 2004, one of the hallmarks of Red Hook-based Sixpoint Craft Ales has been their prolific creativity. They've brewed almost 80 varieties of beers to date, and expect to hit 100 by the end of the year. Many of their beers are brewed in relatively (or in some cases very) small batches. Some surface seasonally, or from time-to-time throughout the year, while some make appearances only on special occasions and others are brewed just once.
The constant flux in the availability of many of the brews keeps their fans paying close attention to what's available at any given time and where it can be found. The Sixpoint crew don't do much advertising – they keep their devotees apprised of the latest offerings largely through twitter (where they have over 20,000 followers), facebook, and good old-fashioned word of mouth.
Want examples of that Sixpoint creative streak at work? The past couple of weeks alone have seen the debut of the Sehr Crip Pilsner, the first of a whole new line of lagers; Pumpkin Brewster, their original take on a new kind of harvest-season classic; Purple Rain, a limited-edition plum beer created in collaboration with Red Jacket Orchards, and another small-batch special: the Missionary Style IPA, a west coast-style beer brewed to celebrate the 3rd anniversary of Park Slope watering hole Pacific Standard.
At their 3rd anniversary party last Tuesday, Pacific Standard cleared the taps to mount a blow-out lineup of over 14 Sixpoint drafts, and most of the Sixpoint crew was on hand to help them celebrate.
I sat down with Sixpoint founder Shane Welch and Pacific Standard co-owner John Rauschenberg at the party to try some of Sixpoint's latest creations and to talk about the brewing and pouring of craft beers.
First, I asked Shane about the creative zeitgeist so evident in Sixpoint's ever-evolving selection of brews.
Nona: One of your hallmarks, and I think one of the things your fans love most about Sixpoint is your creativity. You're always rolling out something new. What provides the inspiration that generates so many ideas?
Shane: "Part of it is the community of people we work with and hang out with. We spend a lot of time with creative, like-minded people who make and serve great food and drink, and who work with all kinds of different products that aren't necessarily standard beer ingredients. We make an effort to get out there and spend time with artisanal chefs, brewers, farmers and all kinds of tastemakers in Brooklyn and beyond. Seeing their passion for what they do inspires us and really gets the creative juices flowing, and we look for ways to incorporate what they do into what we do.
But I think that the most important thing behind our creativity is that everyone making beer at Sixpoint started out as homebrewers. They all developed their craft in ways that forced them to be creative while working with limited resources, but also without the constraints that come with a lot of larger-scale brewing efforts. They're all inherently creative and passionate brewers, and they bring that spirit to everything we do at Sixpoint."
Have you always featured such a wide variety of beers, or did you start with a few core brews and expand as you grew?
We had a lot of pent up recipes that we wanted to share by the time we launched in 2004, so we came out with guns blazing. We immediately released 12 different beers. We've brewed 78 different varieties to date, and we'll be up to 100 by the end of the year.
Who were some of the first local spots to pour Sixpoint?
We worked hard to get a few restaurants and bars to tap our beers in the early days. Barcade and Spuyten Duyvil in Williamsburg, Brooklyn Social in Carroll Gardens, Waterfront Ale House on Atlantic, Franny's in Park Slope and Kettle of Fish in Manhattan were some of the first. Since then, we've gained a lot of momentum: There are a few hundred spots pouring our beers in Brooklyn today.
Many people clearly love your beers, your creativity, your approach, and the way you represent Brooklyn. How do handle the increasing demand?
We've made the choice to manage our growth ourselves, rather than letting the market dictate what we do. There is a very high demand for our beer, and if we produced more we'd sell more, but we're committed first and foremost to quality. Our ability to retain the quality and integrity we want in our product is our top priority. Producing and selling more beer is secondary.
For us, it's not just about getting the formula and ingredients right once, then recreating it over and over – we're committed to continual refinement. We're determined to make each batch of each of our varieties better than the last.
Balancing the integrity of the product with the intense demands of a supply chain that wants mass production can definitely be challenging. Most of our focus right now is internal – on building a culture, a process, and chemistry that will allow us to grow in the way WE want to grow … not necessarily in the way the market wants us to grow right now.
So we won't to be seeing Sixpoint ads featuring bikinis and beach volleyball on TV anytime soon?
That actually brings up a good point – Marketing is another thing that we're really careful about. We're all saturated with advertising and marketing that throws honesty out the window by design, in order to get us to buy all kinds of things – from mass-produced beer and food, to cars, political messages and … everything. At Sixpoint we have always been and will always be very careful to communicate our message and our story honestly, authentically and with integrity. That's really important to us.
One question that always comes up about Sixpoint is, "Why don't they bottle their beers?"
Early on, it was partly due to size, space, and capital-intensive reasons – we simply didn't have enough of any of those things to make it feasible! But that's not the total story. The reality is, when you launch a company that has its entire focus on the quality of the product – NOT where its from, or the name of the owner, or some gimmick, but rather the QUALITY of the product, we think the best way to cultivate that kind of brand is to have no packaging at all. With good packaging, sometimes the consumer will buy the product entirely based on appearance. They'll walk down the aisle and simply buy whatever catches their eye.
That can't happen with our beers because we have no packaging. We are a draft-only brewery so the only thing the customer sees is the tap handle. For us, it's all about what's INSIDE the keg, versus the exterior facade. So we sell our product based on its merits, not on the "brand."
Another thing I like about the draft-only approach is that it helps promote a sense of community – it forces people to go out to local restaurants and bars to find your latest brews … that creates a different dynamic than picking up a sixer at the corner bodega and drinking it at home in front of the TV.
I wholeheartedly agree. Beer is a social beverage – it incites ideas, conversation, and conviviality. Contrast that with someone wearing headphones, grabbing a six-pack on the way home from work and drinking alone on their couch while watching TV. We want people to go out, and to get to know the people and establishments pouring our beers.
I know you grew up in Milwaukee, a place pretty steeped in brewing history. What brought you to Brooklyn?
Brooklyn has a real magnetic quality to it. I think that's why so many immigrants, writers and artists have settled here through the years. This borough right now is one of the epicenters of culture in our country – amazing things are happening with food, drink, music and art, right now. I was drawn to Brooklyn for lots of reasons, but mostly I just thought this would be a real home for us – A place where people would be receptive to what we do and how we do it. I thought that people here would appreciate our approach to brewing our beer.
What are some of your favorite food and drink spots in Brooklyn?
There are just so many. I live near Franny's – I love what they do, they kick ass. I love Frankie's on Court Street and Calexico Carne Asada on Union. The Stumptown coffee roastery is a neighbor of the brewery in Red Hook. They're amazing. Whenever I'm feeling a little ragged I walk over there for a cup of their coffee. The stuff is like nectar.
Any food pairing favorites? Do you have any personal favorite combinations of food and Sixpoint beer?
I do. One of my absolute favorite pairings is a traditional Thanksgiving dinner with our Brownstone Ale. There's just something about the savory flavors of turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes and all that other good stuff that fits perfectly with the rich, roasted flavors of the Brownstone. It's actually a Sixpoint tradition going back to before we launched in 2004. I don't do Thanksgiving without Brownstone.
One last thing: You know we're big fans of the burgeoning urban agricultural movement here in Brooklyn and all it represents. Tell us about the rooftop garden you started this year at the brewery.
Sure. We had all these used kegs sitting on the roof – we needed to so something with them. So we starting talking about it. Should we send them to the scrapyard? We thought, wait, there's got to be some practical use for these. They're steel…maybe we can repurpose them into something functional…Eventually we realized they were already on the roof…we could just cut the tops off and use them to create a roof garden! So we did.
The garden fed us all summer. We had amazing tomatoes; heirloom herbs like thyme, sorrel, basil and tarragon; these great purple viking potatoes that we fried, mashed, scalloped, baked and roasted; great early-season snap peas and lots more.
Did you get a chance to incorporate any of your rooftop harvest into a beer?
Oh yeah – getting enough for a big 500 gallon batch from the garden is a challenge, but we had enough for some small batches that we're experimenting with.
How'd you get to know the Pacific Standard guys?
Ha Ha. These guys have been buying beer from us since 2005, right when we opened. That was a couple of years before they opened the bar. They had a kegerator in their apartment and would come down to the brewery on Saturday afternoons to get beer. They loved our beer because it was the closest thing to "California-Style" beer (aggressive and hoppy) they could get in NY. Making the Missionary Style IPA with them was fun and easy – they just wanted something hoppy!
While Shane went to grab another pint, I sat down with John to talk about Pacific Standard and their long-term love affair with Sixpoint.
So how did you end up opening a west coast-inspired beer bar in Brooklyn?
John: I moved to New York from Northern California in 2001 to pursue a career in book publishing. I noticed right away that in New York at that time there was just a total lack of bars with the laid-back vibe and focus on great local beer that you'd find everywhere in the bay area. It seemed like all the bars around here fell into two categories back then: dives that featured $2 PBRs, and upscale places that featured $16 appletinis. It seemed like there was room in the middle there for bars that were laid back but passionate about serving quality craft beers.
My friend (and co-owner of Pacific Standard) Jonathan Stan was back in Berkeley at that time, working at Chez Panisse. We'd talked for years about opening a bar that was all about great beer, and on a visit back home a few years after I had moved to New York, we decided to do it. Jonathan moved out, we spent about a year scouting locations, another year on construction and bureaucracy, and we opened in 2007.
Brooklyn was an easy choice. After living in Manhattan for a few months I had moved to Brooklyn and just loved it. It felt to me like the Berkeley or East Bay of New York. There was a real laid-back vibe and an interest in artisanal food and craft beer that reminded me of home.
Shane mentioned that you were one of their original customers … that you got to know each other a few years before you opened Pacific Standard. How did you discover them?
My book publishing job actually led me to Sixpoint. I grew up with good west coast beers, and one thing I missed about Northern California was the ready availability of laid-back bars that showcased great craft beer.
Luckily, my office was a few blocks from The Ginger Man, one of the few bars in Manhattan that really featured and promoted craft beers at that time, and they had Sixpoint on draft very shortly after they launched. I loved the beer, and heard through a friend that they did brewery tours, so I went out one weekend, met Shane and the crew, and I actually became one of their first customers.
This was before you opened the bar?
Yup. I used to take the bus from Park Slope out to Red Hook, stop by the brewery, talk to the guys, hang out a bit, buy a keg and call a car service to take me home, where I'd hook it up to the kegerator system in my kitchen.
I just loved the beer and loved how they were doing it. It didn't feel like a business. It was just 2 or 3 guys with a dream and all the right ideas about how to make great beer, how to source the right ingredients, and how to do it all in the way they wanted to do it…what they were doing felt so local and authentic. I was a big fan from day one.
Tell me about the Missionary Style IPA collboration
It was kind of like a dream come true – we had talked with Shane for years about doing something together. I think this year was the first time they really had the manpower and capacity in place to do a small batch special brew with us.
We thought a lot about what style of beer we wanted to do, then realized we were being dumb. Jonathan and I are from Northern California. We grew up loving west coast-style IPAs…why not just go with that? Sixpoint hadn't done a west coast IPA before, and they had a lot of fun going crazy with the hops. Shane used a Kolsch yeast – a traditional German yeast used for for really light, dry, summer beers. Using Kolsch in the IPA gave it a west coast twist – a dry, tart, tangy dimension. The Kolsch dried it out, lightened it, and gave it this great pungent aroma.
I'm really happy with it – I think it came out great.
Shane mentioned that the Missionary Style IPA was brewed in a pretty limited edition. How long do you think it'll last?
They brewed a one-time 30 keg batch that'll just be available here at Pacific Standard. We hope it'll last until around Halloween, but we'll see…
You'd better act quickly if you don't want to miss out on Sixpoint's latest limited-edition creation. The Missionary Style IPA will be available only at Pacific Standard until it runs out.
In order to celebrate Sixpoint's creativity and Pacific Standard's 3rd anniversary, we're giving away two pints of the Missionary IPA each to five lucky Nona subscribers this week. For your chance to win, just email us at email@example.com with the subject line 'Sixpoint' by Thursday, September 30. We'll announce the winners in next week's newsletter.
You'll also have the chance to try another Sixpoint small-batch concoction on Sunday at the Atlantic Antic. All of the bars participating in the Antic will be pouring the Atlantic Antic Amber, a special beer that will be available only on Sunday, only at the festival.

Very Cute
"I picked these boots because of the slimmer calf size and the dark brown color. I have very thin calves and it's really hard to find boots that don't look really sloppy. I was please with the fit around my calf, the color and the leather but the were not comfy. I wore them around the house for a couple hours and could not break them in. I have wide feet. And they felt narrow so I thought I would try a 1/2 size bigger but they were out of stock.:( I will be sending them back."

I currently work in Maplin and earn around 300 pounds a month (do a bit of basic math) and it would take me about 5 months.
Any better, I could do with a contract deal and say pay monthly 200£ or something.
I really need to replicate myself first to get a grasp of half the things I would like to do.This could be very interesting but take a year or two of my life :-( Does anyone have any experience of the learning curve ?
If you're not already familiar with either paper drafting or CAD there can be a significant learning curve.

New York City and Long Island begin gas rationing on Friday morning. Drivers have been dealing with huge gas lines since Superstorm Sandy hit.
The first day of gas rationing in New York has gone smoothly. Lines are relatively short, but finding an open station remains a problem.
NEW YORK — On Manhattan's West Side on Friday, one line for gas started at 10th Avenue and W. 41st Street, just over three blocks south of a bustling Hess filling station.
The wait on this first day of an odd-even license plate rationing plan for New York City and Long Island was roughly 20 minutes. For Avik Amany, a car service driver from Brooklyn, that was just fine.
"So far, it's working," Amany said of the new restrictions as he pumped gas for his black SUV just before noon. "The line was about two hours here yesterday. It was crazy. This is much better."
New York City police officers established a gas waiting line along 10th Avenue. Duk Ho Choi, a yellow cab driver from Woodside, Queens, said the line was orderly and moved relatively quickly.
"The last few days it was very hard" to gas up and keep working, Choi said. "Now it's good."
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and the chief executives of Long Island's Nassau and Suffolk Counties ordered the rationing plan — the first of its kind since fuel shortages during the 1970s — amid long lines and short supply after Superstorm Sandy battered the region.
Under the plan, motorists whose vehicle license plates end in an even number may buy gas only on even-numbered days, and those whose plates end in an odd number may fuel up just on odd-numbered days.
Commercial and emergency vehicles, buses, taxis, paratransit vehicles and vehicles with medical doctor license plates are exempt from the restrictions, as are people filling gas containers.
City and Long Island officials instituted the plan after a similar system in New Jersey proved successful after it began last weekend.
Although many motorists gave the experience an initial thumbs up Friday, finding an open station remained a problem.
A GasBuddy.com online fuel shortage tracker launched after Sandy struck showed just 12 service stations open in Manhattan early Friday afternoon --days after electrical power was restored to most of the borough.
Additionally, seven of 57 petroleum terminals that were in Sandy's path remained closed Friday, according to a U.S. Department of Energy report. All were located in either New Jersey or New York, a contributing factor in the reduced levels of gas actually reaching service stations.
New York State Gov. Andrew Cuomo said that state and local officials and the private sector must redesign gas supply and other essential services to withstand what he said was the reality of a permanent increase in dangerous storms.
"I think that's a challenge for us, all across the board," said Cuomo. "If you want to paralyze a region, as we learned, just stop the fuel delivery for two days."
As far as Amany was concerned, the only immediate drawback Friday was on the Hess sign: $4.03.9 per gallon for regular unleaded, and $4.35 for premium.
"It's working today, but let's wait a few days and see what happens," he said.
Michael Green, a spokesman for the AAA auto club's national office, said checks of gas stations showed lines were shorter around New York City and Long Island after the rationing plan took effect.
"That said, the long-term situation probably won't change until the gas distribution system is restored to normal," Green said.
He said AAA had heard many reports of black market gas being offered for sale at sky-high prices.
"There are online ads on Craigslist, and we've heard about people knocking on the windows of cars waiting in (service station) lines and offering to sell them gas," Green said.
People who have made it to the pump are filling up gas cans, then posting those items in the For Sale area of Craigslist.com. Friday afternoon, the online classified ads included a 5-gallon can for $75 and a 5-gallon can for $90 -- putting the price at $15 a gallon and $18 a gallon.
A user who was selling a single gallon of gas for $5 touted it as "good gas," saying "you can inspect it."
Another ad said this: "I have one gallon of gas in a container. 6 dollars and its yours. Or 10 dollars and I will deliver it to you. Good Gas!! Pumped Recently."
Most sellers positioned their ads to say they were selling the cans — and the gas just came along with the price.
Some who needed gas went on Craigslist.
"I will pay 50.00 for a 5 gallon can of regular gas if you bring it to my house in Richmond Hill, Queens," said one user.
New York and New Jersey officials have said they will go after those who excessively increase the cost of essential goods such as gas.
Friday, seven gas stations and one hotel in New Jersey were hit with lawsuits from the government that accused them of illegally hiking up prices during the Hurricane Sandy state of emergency.
One gas station was accused of excessively charging $5.50 per gallon for regular gasoline. That was an increase of $2.05 per gallon — or 59% — above its pre-Sandy prices, according to a statement put out by the New Jersey governor's office, the attorney general and the department of consumer affairs.
"New Jersey has a tough price-gouging law to ensure that profiteers will not take unfair advantage of people at their most vulnerable — those who have been displaced from their homes, have limited resources and are seeking fuel, shelter and the basic necessities of life," Gov. Christie said in the statement. "Businesses operating in New Jersey will obey our laws — or face significant penalties."
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said he would investigate post-Hurricane Sandy price gouging after receiving hundreds of consumer complaints. In a statement, his office said general business law prohibits such increases in costs of essential items such as food, water, gas, generators, batteries and flashlights, and services such as transportation, during natural disasters or other events that disrupt the market.

How do I add a guest?
If you are attending a New Student Conference must register their guests online when then they sign up for a conference. You can log into your myUH self-service account, navigate to your registration page, make changes and then click the Updates button at the bottom of the page.
Parents and guardians are welcome at all conferences and, if attending, will follow a separate schedule of events. Because of the nature of the program, it is not appropriate for anyone except parents/guardians or spouses to attend as a guest. Friends or siblings are not allowed to accompany students. The exception would be an older sibling who is acting in a guardian capacity; however, in this case the sibling would attend Family Member Orientation and would not be with the student during any time parents and students are not ordinarily together.
How do I get to the University of Houston?
Houston is served by two major airports. Hobby Airport is approximately 20 miles closer ($23 by cab) to the University of Houston than is the George Bush Intercontinental Airport. If you are traveling by car from I-45 North, take the Texas Spur 5 exit. Turn right on University Drive. From I-45 South, take the Elgin/Cullen/Lockwood exit. Turn left on Elgin and left at the second light. Turn right on University Drive. Keep straight to Entrance 1 at Calhoun Road.
Conference check-in is located on the second floor of the Conrad N. Hilton Hotel.

O-Team Leaders will be available to guide you around campus during your time at New Student Conference. Maps are available online if you would like to look at one before you come.

You have a complimentary/free parking option:
Students and guests attending the conference may park at no cost in lots A&C of entrance 20, at Spur 5 and University Drive, and in lot 4A, at Calhoun Road and Wheeler Street, with the parking permit found here. Please print the permit and display it on your automobile's dashboard.
Non-complimentary parking options include:
Park in the UH parking garage (located at Entrance 1 at the intersection of Calhoun Road and University Drive); the first half hour is free and then an hourly rate is applied.
Stop by the Visitor Information Booth (located at Entrance 1) and purchase a daily parking permit valid in student surface lots. The cost of the daily permit is $3.
Do I have to take the Math Placement Exam?
Yes, this exam is required prior to attending a New Student Conference, even if you already have credit for a math course. You will not be able to enroll in math- or science-related courses without a score on file. Having a score on file will fulfill the math placement requirement. After taking the exam, if you have questions about your Math Placement Exam or which math course you should take, you will consult your major advisor during your New Student Conference for more details.
What do I need to know about transfer credit?
Transfer credit will be evaluated before your ART date. You will be able to register for classes at ART based on your transfer credit.

Log in to the myUH self-service account to check your status.
Developmental Education
Students who score below the minimum passing level on one or more sections of the initial assessment test are required to enroll in appropriate developmental education course(s) as assigned by an advisor in the UScholars Division. You will meet with your advisor at your New Student Conference.
Credit by Exam
If you can receive credit at UH for courses you took in high school, you definitely want to know before you arrive at your conference and begin enrolling for classes. Learn more about Credit by Exam or contact University Testing Services for more information.
Special Needs
The University is proud of its nearly barrier-free campus and its numerous support services for students who have temporary or permanent health impairment, physical limitations, psychiatric disorders or learning disabilities. If you will need assistance during the conference or need to request an accessible room for your overnight stay, please call the Center for Students with DisABILITIES at least one week prior to your conference date at 713-743-5400 (voice) or 713-749-1527 (TTY).

John Williams makes wondrous music.
Star Wars, Harry Potter, Indiana Jones etc, great titles deserve great music.

"Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain" OST, Yann Tiersen is one of the best.... and there's also "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly" OST from Ennio Morricone

Are you a One Piece Fan? Then click HERE, you wont regret it!!!
Highlander has the best soundtrack, followed by the new Tron movie.
I Love You!
I'm gonna have to say the soundtracks for Guilty Gear and Blazblue. Daisuke Ishiwatari knows how to make some real goddamn music.
Props to Ravona for the awesome sig! Noel is the greatest and I challenge you to prove me otherwise!
MyAnimeList MyMangaList
^ yes!
Guilty Gear has always had brilliant old school-ish rock music, Kliff's theme (Pride and Glory) really gets me going
Best non-anime OST for me though is Blade Runner.
It was composed by Vangelis. 'nuff said.
Pulp Fiction is well worth a mention too.
Mmm....I'll go with the last soundtrack i was given....Garden State and....maybe the Escaflowne movie....all because of Yubiwa and Sora (curse you maaya)
Why don't more people read these mangas?
White Men can't jump, especially Main Source's 'Fakin the Funk', Deep Cover. Pulp Fiction's is pretty good as well.

One of the rarest albums that I like every single track, it's probably the only one in fact.
