Hi and thanks for the wealth of information you provide on this website. I booked my first south africa bowhunt safari last month,going June 2-12 I just checked the moon phase,full moon on June 4th! What are the disadvantages of hunting in full or 3/4 moon phase? Should i be very concerned? Thanks.
From what I have heard, read and seen (although my African experience is extremely limited) moon phase has the exact same effect on amimals here as in Africa. Expect more mid day activity with a full moon and more dawn and dusk activity with a new moon. There are of course always some exceptions especially with nocturnal animals. For example I have read (and will find out in may) that Caracal are most active and easiest to call during the 3 days before and after a new moon. I am sure some of the PHs on here will have opinions on this one.
I am hunting a area in the Eastern Cape with more than 7000 Springbuck, 4000 Blesbuck, i can go on about numbers in this area , the area is almost 20000 acres , i have never had a problem with the moon, a Monday or a rainy day. I think it is all about numbers the more you have the more you will see them . I am sure in some areas the moon will have an effect on the animals as they can drink and feed at night with a full moon, and if the numbers are low it will slowdown the amount you will see . Animals get use to the surroundings very easy, in Zambia i did hunt a area with a lot of poaching in the area, and the buffalo did drink water during the night with or without a moon just because they felt safe. Go and enjoy your hunt and shoot strait.
In my opinion moonphase has a definit influence on game movement especially when bowhunting (due to the fact that as a bow hunter you are stationary), game tend to move much more during the night coming on, during, and going off a full moon, I would say expect the hunting to get better by the day the more you get into your safari. As a rule I try to keep my bowhunting clients around dark moon, game animals tend to be much more localized during dark moon (do not move around much at night) tend to lie down at around 9 pm for the night, and do the bulk of their feeding during the day. On a full it is excatly the opposite, movement tends to be much more during the night and way less during the day, hunting pressure has a influence for sure but in such a case game tend to move at night allot more over the broad spectrum regardless of moon phase, We run an operation on 33 000 acres, with only 30 - 40 hunters a year and the same happens here. IMO the full moon has a much larger effect on game species such as Kudu, Oryx, Nyala, Wildebeest, Zebra and a couple others, please note that this is not to say that your hunt will be a "bust" I am simply saying that movement tends to be better when not around its full phase. Terrain has much to do with it, in the plains it could be slightly different but on bush properties, I truly believe out of experience that the moon has a noticeable effect on such game movement, I have sat in way to many blinds on a full moon seeing only the faint shapes of game approaching a blind on a full moon but being to dark to draw..... which on the same area and same blind is not the case during its darker phase. My very best always.
On another note: I booked during a dark moon and the thing I noticed that had a much larger effect on game movement was the weather on the day. Snow (yes, they had snow in Africa and it opened my eyes) and rain and cold temperatures kept them from moving around. It also started activity later in the mornings or kept them in heavy cover. I looked at the "harvest times" when I got home most were in the afternoon, and that was not due to my sleep ins either. In Namibia when it was minus 3 C (this was the dead of winter for them) the critters did not move until they were getting warmed up. We may as well have slept in til 10AM daily. But there was no way I was going to miss sun rise no matter what.
Moon phase is very important, critical in fact if you are planning to hunt over waterholes. Try and book your dates over a new moon and try and stay away from weeks with a full moon.
If African animals are like American, I'd much rather hunt during a new moon phase. By far I see more animals during a new moon than a full moon. My buddy and I have been keeping track of this very closely for about 10 years now and am convinced with that many data points it's not coincidence.
I have not hunted Africa but have hunted animals many other places. The full moon does have a tendency to entice nighttime and mid-day movement which can be used to an advantage during hot weather. If you are going to be hunting during a full moon period, I would want to be hunting on or around waterholes during the middle part of the day. Adapt to conditions as needed and enjoy your hunt. Good luck.
Yep, here in NA I normally see just as many animals regardless of moon phase. The most notable difference is patience on the full moon, Most hunters have given up and gone home before the game really gets moving and even once it has it does not have nearly as concentrated of a peak time like a new moon. Most new moon activity here occurs in the 1st 2hrs and last hr of light, full moon activity is slow but steady all day long with a slightly better period from 10-3pm give or take.
Diamondhitch, not to be contradictory, but my experience has taught me that movement virtually shuts down especially on species as mentioned above, another very true statment made is that our game is extremely sensitive to the slightests of weather changes. A sudden drop of 5 - 10 degrees makes them bed, a gusty windy day shuts emm down completely. With a bit of rain movement virtually stops on waterholes, as well as on cold and gusty days. Game tend to drink and feed at night (Full moon) and movement on waterholes (which is pretty much the norm in bowhunting in SA) I would say drops by 60%Once again this is especially true of Kudu, Oryx, Wildebbest And Zebra simple fact of the matter is when bowhunting you hunt until last light, and if you have no light to shoot it is simply not going to happen, it also puts a new spin on things once you start paying for trophies and shooting those ones at last light and not being able to recover tham due to poor blood trail or whichever reason, only finding them the next morning to be chomped on by Hyenna and Jackal will make most hunters think twice about shooting in low light, I am mentioning this because this is what happens on a full phase those Oryx and other species come in right at dark and even right after and definitely during. My best always
As Jaco says, moon phase is pretty important to a bowhunter hunting from stands over water. If the property is conducive to stalk hunting - and you're good at it - then it doesn't matter too much! If you can, set yr hunt up for a dark phase...why make things difficult for yourself?!
Judging by the way the moon affects my wife and daughters, it surely then MUST affect all other simple creatures..! :wacky:
I think it is especially important when hunting predators, leopard, lion, small cats etc. it seems to be much more productive on a dark moon. I am booked for brown bear this year and it will be a full moon and I am concerned about it
spike.t & docman - you better watch yourselves. The same can be said about men. Being a woman going through menopause I always know when there is a full moon.
I know a lot of people put a lot of faith in the moon phase set ther hunts up or stay in bed because of it, now I can't speak for every where but where I live I've been doing an Experiment for the past two years I've put my cameras out and have gotten thousands of pictures of deer moving and comparing these to several popular hunting magazines that post the moon phase for hunting and fishing info. I've came to one conclusion FUEY with all of those pic with the moon phase, temp. and time printed on them in 2 years with med. hunting pressure this year I got 1 picture that matched the moon phase in those books. I to will be hunting on 2 June my Birthday on the East Cape and all I can say is critters beware.
Jaco, I would not argue one bit with you about African game. I saw exactly what you described re: bad weather last year over there. As for Moon phase over here (NA), I stand by my statement whole heartedly.
It is a self fulfilling prophecy, there is no better way to not see game than not going out to look. I have a wall of whitetail taken during all moon phases at all times of day, why was I successful? Because I was in my stand when they came out, plain and simple.
We hunt (as full time African professional hunters) every day on average 180 days a season, some seasons 200, over a 12 year period you would be looking at roughly 2 280 days spent watching monitoring game, figuring out what is ideal and what not whilst hunting with clients, Currently we have 3 African guides on this thread one of which has roughly 5000+ days of active hunting as a professional hunter and another roughly having 3500 days of hunting under their belts as well. that is a combined experiences of 10 780 days (29,5 years of physical time spent hunting every day) hunting with clients I also hold firm that movement slows down. Why else would we reccomend our bow clients to rather not come over a full moon phase ..... because we are superstitious?? No it is better success for them and ultimatly better for an outfitters bank account. My best always.

When did the people start paying federal income tax?
According to the History of the Income Tax in our almanac, the federal income tax was first enacted in 1862 to support the Union's Civil War effort. It was eliminated in 1872, revived in 1894, then declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court the following year. In 1913, the 16th Amendment to the Constitution made the income tax a permanent fixture in the U.S. tax system.

My Double Flowering Almond
32 comments:
Lovely, lovely pink ! So soft , so fragile ! I love the first photograph because it looks like a painting and I also love the third one, with the clusters of flowers..they look like as though they are made of soft tissue paper. And the other pictures are delightful to look at because of the sun rays filtering through each petal...awesome photography !
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness ~ you've photographed it SO beautifully Jennifer. As you did last year making me want it (see, the rain didn't carry away all the blooms then ~ you still had enough for a picture to make me run to the greenhouse!)
I hope you get to enjoy it for a long while ~ at 6' it must make quite a statement. My new one is lovely even at only 2' tall so I'm imagining...I've seen flowering almonds only in catalogs and always read the descriptions with longing. Does it smell as heavenly as I imagine? Is it fairly easy to grow? If the answer is yes to both questions, I really want to make room for one here. I love the smell of almonds, and from your photos, it's obviously a beautiful shrub.

Customer service as an indication of service quality in South African supermarkets

Customer service as an indication of service quality in South African supermarkets
Marx, Nadene
Today's consumers demand much more than quality products – they also value the service that is provided in the retail environment highly (Arnold, 2003:78; Samson&Little, 1993:390) From retailers' perspective, customer service may have become the only way to differentiate them from competitors because the products that they offer often differ insignificantly from one store to another. Excellent customer service therefore may be the only opportunity to attract and to attain customers to the extent that it results in store loyalty. Unfortunately limited research could be found on customer service that would conquer the hearts and wallets of consumers in specific retail settings for the sake of store loyalty. Extant research mostly address single, very specific elements of customer service or customer service in general in terms of its effect on buyer behavior or store patronage in general. It was proposed that retailers could enhance customers' repeat purchase behaviour if they could successfully increase customer satisfaction through improved service quality. In order to identify the elements of customer service that are considered crucial in terms of excellent customer service and repeat purchase behaviour, an attempt was made to determine why consumers often divide their purchases across different supermarkets that apparently stock the same goods. The research thus required the identification of the elements of customer service that individually and/or collectively affect consumers' preference for specific supermarket/s and their probable repeat purchase behaviour. This study also explored how consumers rate the service of supermarkets and attempted to make suggestions in terms of how retailers could improve customer service to ensure consumer loyalty. The systems theory approach was used to guide discussions, as it enabled a study and understanding of the sequence, relationship and interdependency of fundamental elements of customer service (as subsystems ) within a larger complex system (retail environment). The cognitive perspective was incorporated in the discussion of the elements of customer service as it enabled the understanding of customers' interpretation of customer service. Participants were recruited by means of snowball sampling within the area of Pretoria East in the geographical area of Tshwane. In this area, major supermarkets are located within close proximity, which is conducive for shop hopping. It was required that participants either resided and/or shopped in the specific area; they were from LSM groups 5 and higher; older than 25 years, but no requirements were set in terms of race or gender. A quantitative data collection method was used (a survey: questionnaire). A qualitative data collection technique (focus group discussions) was however implemented beforehand to include every day constructs and to include additional constructs that might have been overseen. It became evident that consumers apparently patronage different supermarkets on a regular basis and that the customer service of some of the supermarkets are viewed significantly better than others. The elements of customer service that are more severely criticized seem to be mostly PROCESS and PERSONNEL related. Through factor analysis and linear regression, three elements of customer service were identified as those that are apparently regarded crucial in terms of excellent customer service. Two familiar elements, namely PROCESSES and PERSONNEL as well as a newly structured element, namely VALUE FOR MONEY was identified to design a model that depicts the elements of customer service that were identified to be crucial in terms of excellent customer service.

Are you going on holiday soon and want to avoid the queues at the airport? Then perhaps you should invest in an e-gate card, with 2-year validity.
E-gate cards are especially good when arriving back into Dubai to avoid the long queues at immigration. Residents of the UAE over the age of 17 can get an e- gate card which works in all Terminals or added on the Emirates National Identity Card, however this only seems to work at Terminal 3 when travelling with Emirates Airlines. The fee for this is Dhs 200. Read more
Do you keep finding the roads in Dubai are constantly changing. Maybe you don't have a Sat Nav or you just want to know how long it will take to get to your next destination, or where the traffic jams and/or accidents are. A really useful way of finding out this information is with an app called Waze.
Waze is the world's largest community-based traffic and navigation app. Join other drivers in your area who share real-time traffic and road info, saving everyone time and petrol Read more
Even before you move to Dubai most people will know that this is an expensive city especially when it comes to entertainment.
However, deals are a plenty in Dubai and there are many ways of making your Dirham go that little bit further so we asked our readers what their favourite discount sites, voucher books & discount cards were.

Look around at any group of people in the world and especially in Dubai and you will see that they are all clutching a mobile device and sometimes two. Information is at their fingertips.
Dubai now prides itself on providing many home grown apps and in recent years the government have also produced many useful apps for the services they provide to the community.
The benefit of apps is you can download them before you arrive, helping you be that little bit more prepared for life in Dubai.
Below is a list of apps to get you started.
New app feature negates need to call police to minor accident sites, generate accident report faster
Reporting to police your own minor fender-bender car accident has never been easier.
Motorists will soon be able to report their own minor vehicle accidents on local roadways via smartphone rather than calling Dubai police officers on patrol to attend the scene, confirmed a senior police official.
In an interview with Gulf News, Colonel Khalid Nasser Al Razooqi, General Director of Smart Services at Dubai Police, said the police service is set to launch next month a new feature of the popular app — dubbed 'Report Minor Accident from Phone'.
After reporting their own minor accidents via the app, drivers will receive the police report for the accident, which they can then present to insurers. Read more

26 New England beers worth trying this fall
By Sam Costanzo and Maureen Quinlan/Boston.com Correspondents| 11.14.13 | 3:52 AM
Starbucks isn't the only place with pumpkin-spiced everything during the fall season. New England brewers have rolled out their fall offerings as well. While pumpkin is by far the most popular flavor, there are plenty of cranberry-infused, Scottish-inspired, and wheat-based brews out there too. Take a look at some local libations for this season. Next
R.hode I.sland P.umpkin
Made by: Newport Storm Brewery
Location: Newport, R.I.
Alcohol by volume: 7 percent
This brand new fall brew from Newport Storm is a variation of their Old Cyclone Claudia recipe from 2007. "We use three pounds of pumpkins per keg, chocolate malt and a blend of local spices, including cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice and clove," said Taylor Butzbach, Newport Storm public relations manager. The pumpkin beer is available until Dec. 31 by draft only. Next
Oktoberfest Marzen Lager
Made by: Newport Storm Brewery
Location: Newport, R.I.
Alcohol by volume: 5.5 percent
This authentic Munich malt has been a Newport Storm fall staple for several years. Its rich amber color, light sweetness and malty body are available through Thanksgiving in bottles only. Next
Autumn Wheat
Made by: Mayflower Brewing
Location: Plymouth
Alcohol by volume: 4.8 percent
Mayflower's Autumn Wheat is dark and malty with a classic German flavor.
"We decided to go with wheat instead of doing another pumpkin beer," said founder and president Drew Brosseau. Instead, the brew has a more bready and fruity taste. It's available in six packs through the fall. Next
Thanksgiving Ale
Made by: Mayflower Brewing
Location: Plymouth
Alcohol by volume: 6.7 percent
Mayflower's president and founder Drew Brosseau said that as far as he knows, this is the only Thanksgiving beer in the world. It's a combination of English old and American strong ales and uses barley and malt that's been toasted on oak. The ale rests for eight to 10 weeks before it's packaged in 22-ounce bottles instead of the usual two weeks, Brosseau said, making for a complex and nutty character.
Thanksgiving Ale is scheduled to arrive on shelves at the end of October and last through early November. Next

The Pumpkin Lager has been revamped for the Halloween season said head brewer Jim O'Neil with a spookier label and strong pumpkin spice flavors. "You will get the taste of biting into a piece of pumpkin pie," O'Neil said. The lager will be available until the end of November in bottles and kegs.
Smuttynose Scotch Ale
Made by: Smuttynose Brewing
Location: Portsmouth, N.H.
Alcohol by volume: 8.2 percent
Smuttynose's Scotch Ale, released in early October, is a reddish brown ale made with beachwood smooked malts. The original batch was made in April and then aged in red wine oak barrels. That batch was then mixed with a fresh batch to create the batch being sold now in 22-ounce bottles. Next
Smuttynose Pumpkin Ale
Made by: Smuttynose Brewing
Location: Portsmouth, N.H.
Alcohol by volume: 6.3 percent
Smuttynose is celebrating 10 years of producing its Pumpkin Ale. The company has brewed 100 1,500-gallon batches. The six-packs and 12-packs of 12-ounce bottles and draft will only last through Halloween. "This amber ale has a moderate bitterness and is finished with a hops blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and clove," said JT Thompson, Smuttynose Brewing's minister of propaganda. Next
Berkshire Brewing Co. Scotch Ale
Made by: Berkshire Brewing .
Location: South Deerfield
Alcohol by volume: 7 percent
Berkshire Brewing Co. released its fall beer, Scotch Ale, in 22-ounce bottles and on draft. It will be available until it runs out which is expected to be mid-October. It is a traditional Scottish beer made with a peated malt giving it a smoky flavor. "It has a rich, warming effect, which is great for fall," said Jason Hunter, general manager and director of sales. Next
Great Pumpkin Ale
Made by: Cambridge Brewing .
Location: Cambridge
Alcohol by volume: 4.4 percent
Cambridge Brewing Co. has been making this pumpkin beer for 24 years with the original recipe from founder Phil Bannatyne. It uses 150 pounds of raw, shredded, Massachusetts-grown sugar pumpkins for every 300 gallons brewed. And because the pumpkin is not roasted before going into the beer, the taste is a "fresh and sqaushy" one, said Will Meyers, CBC's brewmaster. It is also spiced subtly with cinnamon and allspice. It will be available through Thanksgiving on draft and in 22-ounce bottles in Massachusetts, Vermont, Connecticut, and Southern Maine. Next
Red God
Made by: Cambridge Brewing
Location: Cambridge
Alcohol by volume: 9 percent
Red God is a red imperial ale that will be released on Nov. 18, just in time for Thanksgiving. "It has a deep red color with caramel and malt flavors," said Cambridge Brewing Company's Brewmaster, Will Meyers. It includes five different American hop variatals making for a bitter finish. It will be available in 22-ounce bottles and on draft. Next
Made by: Magic Hat Brewing
Location: South Burlington, Vt.
Alcohol by volume: 4.4 percent
Séance is Magic Hat's seasonal fall brew this year. It is a dark and earthy brew made with saison yeast which balances with a smoked and roasted flavor from the dark malts. It is available in six packs, 12 packs, in the fall variety pack, and on draft through the end of October. Next

Location: South Burlington, Vt.
Alcohol by volume: DeVEILed, 5.2 percent
Magic Hat releases seaonal variety packs, and this year's fall pack includes four fall beers: #9, Séance, HI.P.A. and DeVEILed. DeVEILed is what Lead Brewer Chris Rockwood called "a not-so traditional amber." It has smooth malts and hops that leave piney notes on the end. DeVEILed is available exclusively in the variety pack through the end of October. Next
Pumpkin Stouts
Made by: Cape Ann Brewing
Location: Gloucester
Alcohol by volume:7 and 10 percent
Cape Ann's Pumpkin Stout, sold in six pack and on draft, uses real pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, and allspice to create a classic fall brew. The more robust and intense Imperial Pumpkin Stout uses the same flavors and is sold in 22-ounce bottles.
Owner Jeremy Goldberg said that the stouts will be on draft until Thanksgiving, but the bottled versions are going fast. Next
Smashed Pumpkin
Made by: Shipyard Brewing Company
Location: Portland, Maine
Alcohol by volume:9 percent
Smashed Pumpkin is part of Shipyard's Signature Series. It's made from malted barley and has more sugar than other pumpkin beers.
Founder Bruce Forsley said that Smashed Pumpkin has a more sophisticated palate and recommended enjoying it chilled to 45 degrees in a snifter.
The beer has been available since mid August in 22-ounce bottles and on draft, and Forsley expects it to stick around until Thanksgiving. "I think Americans just have a fascination with the pumpkin flavor profile," he said of the beer's rather early release.
Made by: Shipyard Brewing Company
Location: Portland, Maine
Alcohol by volume: 4.7 percent
Shipyard's Pumpkinhead, which founder Bruce Forsley said is by far the brewery's most popular variety, uses a proprietary blend of nutmeg and cinnamon to create a sweet wheat beer that finishes dry. "People seem to be able to finish quite a few of them," Forsley said. Bostonians especially seem to love it, he said: it's Shipyard's biggest seller in the greater Boston market.
Most bars that serve Pumpkinhead on draft, he said, like to add a cinnamon and sugar rim to the glasses for a pumpkin pie-like experience. You can recreate that at home by purchasing the brew in 12-ounce bottles as well.
"It's also getting popular to use this beer as a mixer of sorts," Forsley said. "You can add whipped cream vodka or spice rum or Southern Comfort to give it a little bit of lift." Next
Made by: Harpoon Brewery
Location: Boston
Alcohol by volume:5.3 percent
This variation on a classic fall beer is brewed with Tettnang hops for a full-bodied, smooth, and slightly bitter beer, according to head brewer Sean Cornelius. It's available in six- or 12-packs, cases, in cans, or on draft through November. Next
Grateful Harvest Cranberry Ale
Made by: Harpoon Brewery
Location: Boston
Alcohol by volume:5.9 percent
Harpoon's cranberry-infused Grateful Harvest has more than just that tart berry flavor to make it unique. One dollar from the sale of each six pack of this medium-bodied, malty ale is donated to local food banks through the Harpoon Helps program as well.
"The cranberries we use are from local bogs owned by AD Makepeace, not far from where the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock," head brewer Sean Cornelius said in an e-mail. How's that for Thanksgiving-themed? Next
Craft Cider
Made by: Harpoon Brewery
Location: Boston
Alcohol by volume:4.8 percent
Harpoon has pulled off quite the magic trick this Halloween: its Craft Cider is made with nothing but local apples and its house yeast. This crisp, tart brew is available in six packs, caases, and draft year round, but what better time to drink your apple a day than the fall?
Craft Cider is naturally gluten free. Next
Hope Street Amber
Made by: The People's Pint
Location: Greenfield
Alcohol by volume:5.1 percent
Hope Street Amber is an English ESB style beer with a toasted caramel grain flavor. It's made with spicy hops but has a bit of sweetness in it as well. "Good for apple picking, I always say," said Woodley Wardell, Sales and Distribution Manager.
Hope Street Amber is currently available in 22-ounce bottles. Next
Scotch Ale
Made by: The People's Pint
Location: Greenfield
Alcohol by volume: 7 percent
People's Pint's Scotch Ale gets its robust, smoky flavor from darker malt that's smoked right outside the brewery. It's a dark ale that balances this smokiness with fruity and toffee flavors for a warm fall taste. Scotch Ale will be available in bottles by mid-October. Next
Slippery Slope
Made by: The People's Pint
Location: Greenfield
Alcohol by volume:9 percent
"People go crazy for this," Woodley Wardell, sales and distribution manager, said. "It's the lightest, most refreshing 9 percent alcohol beverage people have ever had."
With a recipe that sounds worthy of a fruit salad, that's no real surprise. Slippery Slope is made with malted grain, local apple cider, honey, chunks of ginger, and bitter orange peels.
It's available in bottles and is scheduled for a November release. Next
Made by: Boston Beer
Location: Boston
Alcohol by volume:5.3 percent
Even though brewery manager Jennifer Glanville calls this a traditional American-style beer, she's been told by German farmers that OctoberFest is very reminiscent of traditional German beer. That's because the star of the show is a five-variety blend of malted barley, while the delicate flavor of noble hops takes a back seat.
"It has really sweet toffee, caramel, and cereal notes," she said. "It's big and malty, the complete opposite of a Boston Lager or IPA. I think people like that this time of year."
Glanville, who loves cooking with beer, said that this beer is incredibly easy to incorporate into recipes and especially likes to use it in slow-cooked pulled pork. Next
Harvest Pumpkin Ale
Made by: Boston Beer
Location: Boston
Alcohol by volume: 5.7 percent
Harvest Pumpkin Ale was a well-kept secret inside the Sam Adams until two years ago, head brewer Jennifer Glanville said, when the brewery decided to sell it in six packs and the Harvest Collection variety pack.
"I had been tasting some of the other pumpkin beers on the market and thought the others didn't really utilize a lot of pumpkin," Glanville said. She carried 350 pounds of pumpkins to a catering company across the street from the brewery to be roasted and pureed for her first batch of the medium-bodied ale. Now, each barrell uses 17 pounds for a distinct flavor.
The pumpkins' sweetness is balanced out with four types of malts, included a smoked malt for extra roasted flavor. "We also use English hops that have a more earthy note, like a geranium," Glanville said. Next
Fat Jack
Made by: Boston Beer
Location: Boston
Alcohol by volume:8.5 percent
Like the Harvest Pumpkin Ale, Fat Jack is made with traditional pumpkin pie spices. It requires 28 pounds of pumpkin per barrel, head brewer Jennifer Glanville said, but the flavor is toned down a bit because of the high alcohol content. "It's almost like an earthy sweetness," Glanville said. "The higher alcohol content also adds a nice warming character."
Fat Jack is available now in 22-ounce bottles.
Made by: Thomas Hooker Brewing
Location: Bloomfield, Conn.
Alcohol by volume: 5.7 percent
This full-bodied brew uses a special blend of German malts to create a smooth brew, according to Thomas Hooker Brewing's website. The slow fermentation and cold maturation process harken back to traditional brewing methods. The Marzenbier is available until the end of October. Back to the beginning

PETER MAN, 2003 Cast: Jason Isaacs, Jeremy Sumpter, Rachel Hurd-Wood, Lynn Redgrave, Richard Briers, Olivia Williams The Darling family children receive a visit from Peter Pan, who takes them to Never Never Land where an ongoing war with the evil Pirate Captain Hook is taking place. CLICK HERE and watch TV SHOWS FOR FREE! REVIEW: J. M. Barries Peter Pan has been retold many times in various ways. Starting out as a short story, it was next adapted for the stage, and later into a novel. It has inspired several film adaptations, from the animated Disney version to the 1990 sequel Hook. Yet the original story has probably never received a more satisfying treatment than P. J. Morgans 2003 version. This adaptation focuses on the relationship between Wendy and Peter, playing up the adolescent yearnings they have for one another. It also tackles the anxieties the children have about growing up, in a way to which we can all probably relate. The movie opens with our heroine Wendy and her younger brothers John and Michael. The three siblings amuse themselves with tales of pirates, but as Wendy grows older, her parents and aunt fear she will soon have to outgrow these games. Just when Wendy is under the most pressure to abandon her childhood, she encounters a figure right out of a storybook: Peter Pan, a boy who simply refuses to grow up. Lured by the promise that they too can have an everlasting childhood, the Darling children accompany Peter to Neverland. Of course, they soon learn that life there is not really all fun and games. The adults in the cast also do a marvellous job. Olivia Williams shines quietly as Mrs. Darling, while Lynn Redgrave provides some lovely comic relief as stuffy Aunt Millicent. Richard Briers plays the long-suffering Smee, who as always seems too mild-mannered for a bloodthirsty pirate. Jason Isaacs plays both Mr. Darling and Captain Hook, a device frequently used in stage productions of Peter Pan. Isaacs portrayal is multi-faceted, touching on the humorous aspects of the character while still making him genuinely dangerous. As civilized as Hook appears, it seems theres nobody he wont kill, from children to fairies to his own crewmembers. Of course, we can also see that Hook is absolutely miserable, and although this isnt exactly played for sympathy, it certainly adds some depth to the character. This movie also puts an interesting spin on Wendys perception of Hook: although its played very subtly, she seems to have a bit of a crush on him. This leads to an interesting internal conflict for Wendy; in choosing to side with Peter or with Hook, shes choosing whether or not to cross over into adulthood. In a category of her own, we have Ludivine Sagnier as an especially mischievous Tinkerbell. Sagnier displays an impressive talent for physical comedy, and her antics are the comic highlight of the movie. She has no lines, but her expressive face makes dialogue unnecessary. The visual effects have a very fitting fairytale look, from the candy-floss clouds to the flying Jolly Roger. The flying effects are excellent; after a while, you forget its an effect. As far as creatures go, theres the infamous giant crocodile, not to mention something youre not likely to find in any other movie: scary mermaids. Theres also what must be the worlds most tragic-looking parrot, a rickety old thing that unwisely tangles with Tink. James Newton Howards score is adventurous and stirring, especially in the I do believe in fairies scene. The overall tone of Peter Pan is bittersweet. There is always the sense that the fun cant last forever. On the one hand, we recognize the inevitability of growing up and facing the real world, but we also long for the fantasy Neverland represents. Peter Pan reminds us that even though we all have to grow up, we dont have to lose our enthusiasm for life.

Artwork Description
I was doing a project for illustration class..I wanted a frog for each season, and i wanted them to look very animated and warped.....im ok with the spring and winter frogs...but the fall season "red" one looks a little sloppy to me. I may end up redoing them
im the first persone to put a comment in like 5 years!!!!!!! wow!!!
Cool frogs! For spring, you should make a yellow frog. For summer, you should make a green frog. You only have three frogs. You should make a frog for every season. The picture is cool!
Awesome. It's nice to see a different style here on Epiloque. Yours rocks!
for some reason, i read "mango frogs". made the frogs even sweeter. i want the red one to keep as my digital pet.
is there a summer frog?
kinda funny you have the frogs next to the fly boy.
excellent, i like how you draw frogs

I'm telling you guys, not only will Vinny Curry not be there for us in the 2nd. He is going to go 1st round. He was way undervalued when he was first originally projected to go in the 2nd. He's done everything to increase his stock. He's a late round 1 guy.
I can't believe no one has really talked about this on here but Luke Kuerchly came in for a visit. If he's there at 20 he may be the pick.
I would prefer to go D Lineman the first two picks Situation 1 Round 1) DT Devon Still (DT's make linebackers and d ends better, not the other way around) Round 2) DE Vinny Curry (He goes hard every snap. I love guys that work hard, but there is no substitute for athleticism on the field, and he has it by the ton) Round 3) C David Molk (Strong as an ox, could be a mauler in the middle) Situation 2 Round 1) DE Whitney Mercilus (Get an athletic DE and help with the depth at that position. We get after the QB we take this defense to top 15-top10) Round 2) DT Brandon Thompson (IDK if he will last this long, but he has the strength to really anchor the middle of our line) Round 3) C Mike Brewster
Trade down, because I'd be happy with any of them besides the CBs. Just don't think we need to draft one high at this point this year. Move down 5 spots and pick up another pick.
Just watched some videos on Brockers against UGA and MSU and wasn't impressive at all, I'm a little skeptical about him now. He got pushed around a bunch.
i voted cox....i think he has tremendous upside and will fit in with us along with having a good chance of being there when we pick still too
If DeCastro doesnt fall I will be happy with Stephon Gilmore, Whitney Mercilus, or Cordy Glenn. Barron if he runs a sub 4.5 40 would be acceptable as well.

Cost at the door with a RSVP is $25. If you show at the party without being pre-paid or RSVP the cost is $30.
Q: I've never done anything like this before, is it fun? A: Yes, it's fun and a great way to meet new people. With your lock or key you will find it very easy to approach someone and start up a conversation. We see new people at each party so you'll want to come back again and again.
Q: I want to attend, but am unsure about coming alone. Is it safe for me to do so? A: Absolutely. One of the driving factors in our selecting venues for our parties is that the location must be one that our partygoers will feel comfortable coming to alone or bringing their friends. A Lock And Key party is so much fun that you really don't need a Wing Person! Remember, you are attending the party to meet new people!
As for coming alone, we often hear that someone wants to attend, but can't get a friend to go with them. Here's a chance for you to find new friends at the party that enjoy getting out and doing fun things. If not, Ladies may call Janice at 770-815-4997 or include "Party Pal" and your phone number in your Registration to let us know you are attending alone.
Q: I'm really shy and this seems like something only outgoing people do. Should I attend? A: YES. We hear all the time that someone is too shy to approach people in a group setting. Not to worry, at this party people of the opposite sex are going to approach you!! You will soon be in the party mood. :-) Our party is the ULTIMATE ice breaker and conversation starter. Even the shyest folks have been seen talking and laughing all night. It's time to unlock your social life!!!
Q: What do I do when I "unlock" with someone? Am I stuck with them? A: Your goal at this party is to meet as many people as possible. Once you find a match to your lock or key, you both go back to the Lock And Key Distribution Station to exchange your old hardware for a new lock or key. PLUS, you get a ticket for the prize drawing. The more unlocks you have the more chances you have to win some of the great prizes offered!
Q: What if I meet someone that I like? A: We hope you meet several people that you like! You're free to ask for or hand out contact information on your own. We'll supply the pencil and paper!!! When you check in, you'll receive a small Lock And Key Pencil and Contact Card on which you can write down phone numbers, names, etc. You can even exchange business cards. NOTE: Current singles etiquette regarding phone numbers is that you give your cell number not your home number. If you don't have a cell phone, then give your email address.

The Cost Of Online Rebranding
Small Business Mavericks
If you've built a solid online brand and find yourself having to rebrand your business online for one of various reasons, then you should count the cost before you start. If it is, there are some definite costs, and I mean beyond the dollars and cents. You'll also have to count the cost of rebranding your other assets. It's a relatively easy process, but it does require you taking some action. For each additional aspect of your business that you have to rebrand, there's a cost – even if it's minuscule. That means more work.
