Suntory Special Reserve Whisky 10 yo
Review by Nonjatta contributor - Dramtastic:
Suntory Special Reserve Whisky. Aged 10 years. 43 per cent alcohol.
Nose: Nicely fruity: peaches, bananas and pineapple. Vanilla, gentle oak and sawdust. After a while, a vegetal element emerges balancing out the sweetness.
Palate: Immediate spiciness, nuts, fresh baked scones and stewed apples.
Finish: Nicely warming and mouth coating with a medium length; nuts and custard over stewed apples.
General Comment: A classy blend of good complexity.

Sony has revealed a new shape revision for its PlayStation 3 console. The new console will be slimmer and lighter, as well as having better storage.
Sony used its Tokyo Game Show conference to announce the new PlayStation 3. The headline feature of the new design is that it will be 20 per cent smaller and 25 per cent lighter than the outgoing model.
In Europe it'll be available in two models – one with 12GB of flash memory and another with a 500GB hard drive.
The 500GB model will launch on September 28 for €299.99 as part of a FIFA 13 bundle, while the 12GB budget model will follow "closely after" for around €229.99 on its own, according to the official PlayStation Europe blog. There'll also be a new 250GB hard drive peripheral available for those who opt for the 12GB model and feel the need to upgrade.
This will mark the second shape revision for the PlayStation 3. The first (and current model) came in September 2009.
In the US there'll be a 250GB model released on September 25 for $269.99, as part of a limited edition bundle that will include Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception: Game of the Year Edition and $30 worth of bonus digital content for the download-only game Dust 514.
Meanwhile the 500GB model will be made available on October 30 in conjunction with the launch of Assassin's Creed III. We dare say our US cousins can expect a special bundle offer around that time.
To mark the release of a new PlayStation model, the PlayStation Store will also be receiving a bit of an overhaul in October.

DES MOINES, Iowa — Rip Van Winkle slept for 20 years and woke to find the world had passed him by. Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, woke up one morning recently to find that perhaps America has caught up with him.
Paul, 72, has had a 32-year career in the House. But some voters have just now discovered Paul's constitutionalist, individualist, "just bring all the troops home" creed.
Last weekend in Iowa, Paul, running for the Republican presidential nomination, was greeted by 700 whooping fans at Iowa State University in Ames and another 300 at a rally in Des Moines.
"There is something rather amazing about the Internet," he told his Ames supporters, about two-thirds of whom appeared to be under age 25. "I've been used to delivering a message very similar to what I'm delivering tonight for many, many years and not getting a whole lot of responses. And all of a sudden, there's a whole generation of people now very excited about hearing about the message of freedom."
'Practically miraculous'
"I think it is practically miraculous what has happened in the last 12 months," Paul told reporters in Ames. "Not me and not what I've done. But it's miraculous to find out that there have been so many who had already been informed and were just waiting for someone to ignite these issues."
On foreign policy, Paul told crowds in Ames and Des Moines:
- "Let's give up on nation-building and policing the world."
- The Constitution mandates a policy of non-intervention. "That means: mind our own business."
- He'd pull troops from Iraq and everywhere else. "Don't you think 55 years is long enough to be in Korea?"
He also denounced the idea of bombing Iran to prevent the potential of the Tehran regime acquiring a nuclear weapon, which he sees as no threat to the United States or Israel.
Video: Republican discord "Israel would be better off" and the Israelis "could take care of themselves" if the United States ended its alliance with Israel, he said during a weekend meeting with several Christian pastors from across Iowa.
No Ron Paul speech is complete without a denunciation of the Federal Reserve Board which he blames for the devaluation of the dollar.
He forecasts ever greater Chinese reluctance to buy Treasury bonds.
Other political news of note
Animated Boehner: 'There's nothing complex about the Keystone Pipeline!'
House Speaker John Boehner became animated Tuesday over the proposed Keystone Pipeline, castigating the Obama administration for not having approved the project yet.
- Budget deficits shrinking but set to grow after 2015
- Senate readies another volley on unemployment aid
- Obama faces Syria standstill
- Fluke files to run in California
- Animated Boehner: 'There's nothing complex about the Keystone Pipeline!'
"All empires fail because of a financial crisis," he told the Christian pastors.
If elected, Paul would try to radically shrink the federal government.
"If we don't want the government running our lives and we get to run our lives, then we have to assume total responsibility for what we do," he told the Ames crowd. "We have to suffer the consequences. But the great thing about this philosophy is that if you believe in life, liberty, and the right to pursue your happiness, you also believe you get to keep all of the fruits of your labor."
Hence Paul would scrap the income tax.
"We don't have to put anybody out in the streets," he said. "We can just let young people —whoever wants to take care of themselves — get out of the (Social Security and Medicare) system," he said.
Americans' love of the welfare state
Since most Americans have become accustomed to the welfare state, isn't ending it the toughest idea to sell to audiences?
"It is," he acknowledged in an interview before his Ames speech. "It's really tough — unless the young people listen to what I'm talking about, because the young people know they're getting ripped off."
Asked point blank whether he would propose to abolish Medicare, Paul replied, "That's not my goal. It might be my theoretical goal and my philosophic goal."
He predicts Medicare will "self-destruct."
He foresees a transition in which current beneficiaries are paid for, but "young people get out."
The only place where Paul got a less than friendly reception this past weekend in Iowa was the Iowa Republican Party's Reagan Dinner Saturday night.
The members of the GOP establishment sat on their hands through most of Paul's address. Not until he'd spoken for nine minutes did he get any applause, a tepid round of clapping when he called for abolishing the income tax.
Meanwhile, Paul is drawing a mixture of curiosity and respect from Democrats.
Doug Bishop, the treasurer of Jasper County in central Iowa and a staunch supporter of Democrat John Edwards for president, said, "There are a lot of people (in Iowa) looking at Ron Paul because he knows he's not going to win, so he's not scared to tell the truth."
Bishop added, "He's throwing it right out there: get us out of Iraq, take care of America first, let's take care of home before worrying about spending billions and billions of dollars overseas. And that message is resonating throughout the Midwest."
Praise from the left
Rep. Lynn Woolsey, D-Calif., the left-of-center antiwar leader from Marin County, said, "Ron Paul appeals to people who are hungry for politicians who will speak their minds, not parsing, weighing, measuring. He knows what he believes, he's not afraid to say it."
Video: Ron Paul on Iraq She added, "People are loving it."
Joe Trippi, a 25-year veteran of Iowa caucus politics who served as Howard Dean's campaign manager in 2003 and who's now a top aide to Edwards, said, "From what I see, Ron Paul is doing much better than his better-known opponents think he is doing. He is at that stage of the Dean campaign when all the other campaigns are laughing at him and have no idea of how strong he really is."
Trippi added, "This kind of candidacy can be surprisingly strong in a caucus state particularly if it stays just below the radar."
Drew Ivers, Paul's Iowa campaign chairman, used that same phrase in addressing the Paul rally in Des Moines Saturday.
Ivers asked for show of hands on how many members of the audience were registered Republicans. Seeing that about half weren't, Ivers told them they were "under the radar — which is exactly where I want to be."
A repeat of the 1988 Robertson surprise?
In 1988, Ivers headed Pat Robertson's campaign in Iowa, recruiting thousands of Christian conservatives.
Robertson shocked the GOP establishment by placing second in Iowa to Sen. Bob Dole, and ahead of eventual GOP nominee George H.W. Bush.
To some degree Paul is drawing on the same conservative Christian voters that Robertson did, although he must vie for their affections with GOP rivals Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney.
Paul told the pastors' meeting Saturday that, as an obstetrician, he had delivered approximately 4,000 babies. "The right to life issue is a very important issue to me," he told them.
He told them that during his medical school training he'd entered an operating room without knowing an abortion was being performed. "At the time they weren't sophisticated in how to kill the unborn before it was delivered. They delivered the baby and put it in a bucket and put in the corner of the room. It tried to cry, tried to breathe. Everybody was pretending it wasn't there."
He also explained to the pastors that he voted against the constitutional amendment to outlaw same-sex marriage. "It's a state issue," he said, "I think it should be a religious ceremony; I don't even like the idea that it's a state licensing process."
Paul seems astonished by what has happened to him: "I never would have dreamed that I would have a campaign going that would have big rallies in the center of San Francisco and New York City. There's something very strange going on. I don't think anyone has fully comprehended how big it is."
Paul and his fans will get a first measurement of how big it is on Jan. 3, the night of the Iowa caucuses.

Nashville, Tenn. - The Tennessee State men's basketball team hopes to continue its winning ways this Saturday when the team travels to Columbia, Mo. for a game against the University of Missouri.
TSU (4-5) is currently on a three-game winning streak in which the squad has outscored Fisk, Alabama A&M and Drexel by a combined 60 points.
The Tigers have found their stroke from the field in the recent wins, shooting 52.5 percent from the field (84-160), 35 percent from beyond the arc (15-43) and 82 percent from the free-throw line (68-83). The shooting hot streak has risen the team's overall field goal percentage by nearly 16 percent.
"The [jump in shooting percentage] can be attributed to the players taking better shots," head coach Travis Williams said. "They haven't been forcing the issue and we have been getting good ball movement."
TSU will have to continue to shoot the ball well against Missouri (7-1), as the SEC member currently ranks third in the conference in field goal percentage defense, allowing opponents to shoot just 38.4 percent.
"It is going to be very important that our players not get caught up in the moment [of facing a SEC team], but play our brand of basketball. We must continue to limit turnovers and make the most of the opportunities that are given to us," Williams said.
Tennessee State's shooting will also be important because Missouri ranks first in the SEC in rebounding margin per contest at +11.8.
In fact, the battle down low should be the key to the game, as TSU also ranks first in the OVC in rebounding margin (+4.7).
Seniors Robert Covington and Kellen Thornton both rank in the top five in the conference with 7.4 rebounds per game each, and should match up nicely with Missouri's Alex Oriakhi (8.1 r/g) and Laurence Bowers (6.5 r/g).
"Saturday's game will definitely be a physical basketball game," Williams said. "We have to keep their post players off the glass and stay within our system."
TSU is 0-1 all-time against Missouri with the only meeting coming in the season opener of the 1995-1996 season. Missouri won the game 89-75.
Tip-off between the Tigers is set at 2 p.m. and fans can follow the action on ESPN3.com, Fox Sports Network Midwest (DirecTV channel 671), Sports South (DirecTV channel 649) and Sun Sports (DirecTV channel 653).

Myth Five: Fat is Asexual
Dr. Pattie Thomas wrote a book called Taking Up Space: How Eating Well and Exercising Regularly Changed My Life that is just really awesome. If you haven't read it, it's well worth investing in.
The first chapter of the book has 10 fat myths. As I read them, I had so many ideas and thoughts and things I wanted to say about each one. I contacted Dr. Thomas and she said that it would be okay for me to use her list to talk about each of the myths here. So-welcome to a 10-week series.
Myth number five on Dr. Thomas' list: Fat is asexual.
Asexuality refers to a person's lack of interest in sex. Someone who is labeled as or who identifies as asexual feels no sexual attraction to any person of any gender. Asexuality is a sexual orientation. It is different from celibacy, which is a chosen behavior. (A celibate person, unless they are also asexual, feels sexual attraction and chooses not to indulge it.)
I think that this myth refers to a less clinical description of asexuality, perhaps. In fact, I think it may actually be entirely backward. Not: fat people are not sexually attracted to anyone, but: fat people are not sexually attractive to anyone.
In other words, the real myth here is that fat people aren't sexy.
Maybe this comes from a strange kind of herd mentality. Human beings are as a group fairly self-centric. We tend to believe that we are right and everyone should agree with us. Or, everyone else does agree with us, if the belief in question is wide ranging enough.
So, if enough people believe that fat people aren't sexy, than it just becomes sort of a given. So a fat person can fall into the trap of believing that no one could ever want them. Conversely, someone who is attracted to a fat person may struggle with feeling like there is something wrong with them, especially if they aren't also fat.
This is another myth that I really had to dig deep with. Because I am a fat woman and asexuality hasn't been my experience. Not in the true clinical sense, and not in the reverse non-clinical sense either.
I could, of course, just be the exception that proves the rule. But I don't think so.
I saw a news clip lots of years ago that has stuck with me. It was an interview with the owner of a dating service in Las Vegas. She said that ninety percent of her male clients indicated on their surveys that they did not want to be matched with women who were more than ten pounds over weight. The gall of that kind of seared itself into my psyche.
Are these men reacting to some cultural myth of feminine beauty-deciding that, since they are paying for matchmaking, they might as well have the ideal?
Do they even know what ten pounds "over weight" looks like? Over what weight? What if the weight was distributed five pounds in each breast or two and a half in each breast and over each hip?
As with just about every generalization possible, it is ridiculous to suggest that as a rule fat people are not sexually attracted to anyone. It's equally ridiculous to suggest that all fat people are not sexually attractive to anyone.
Here is something that I think might be closer to the truth: it can be very, very difficult to relax enough to enjoy sex or to feel sexy when you are deeply engaged in self-loathing and body hatred. If a person is told often enough, even abstractly as just part of the fat whole, that being fat is disgusting and wrong and not sexy-it makes sense that the message might follow them into their sexual relationships.
I would go so far as to say that for some people the experience of being fat in Western culture can become almost a sexual trauma.
Rejection automatically becomes a symptom of being fat, even if it isn't.
If you don't match the beauty myth, it can be difficult to turn off the (sometimes screaming) voice that insists that there is something wrong with you. You're ugly. You're disgusting. Who in their right mind would want to see you naked?
If you've ever had a partner who shames you for gaining weight or for being fat, then you know how devastating that can be.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that my experiences with having a hard time enjoying sex when I feel like my body is the enemy are pretty universal.
Fat does not rob a person of sexuality. But hating your body, feeling like everyone else hates your body, can dampen it.
I think for some people, including me, letting go of the body hatred is sexually liberating. It comes with a few pretty awesome lessons.
People are allowed to be sexually attracted to you, whatever your size, without it being a fetish.
You may be someone's fetish-filled-fantasy, which doesn't make your body disgusting. It actually makes it perfect, in some way, to someone. (Which isn't to say that you are obligated to indulge their fantasy-just that it is there.)
You are allowed to believe that some people find you sexually attractive in the body you own right now.
You are allowed to be physically attracted to whoever you damned well please.
You are allowed to feel good in your skin, even when someone else can see a whole lot of it. You're even allowed to leave the lights on. In fact, I encourage it.
You are allowed to say no. Your body, your choice.
Some fat people are asexual. Some thin people are, too. But, it is not their bodies that make them so.

I see the implementation of the CCSS as an opportunity to redesign and revitalize our social studies curriculum and instructional focal points. In considering the rigor of the CCSS and thoroughly examining the expectations of the 21st Century skills many of us hope our children develop, we need to move our students away from simply memorizing historical facts and information to becoming critically thinking citizens who understand not only their democratic rights but the expectations that are associated with these rights. This is an opportunity for us to teach our children about active participation in their learning and construction of knowledge as it relates to citizenship and civics, which directly connect to the expectations of the CCSS and the above mentioned 21st Century skill set. Specifically, we want to emphasize that being a member of a democratic society means one must construct his or her own path by actively participating in the process of deliberation and networking. We must cultivate and foster relationships between children where they are challenged to deliberate important issues and they understand that sharing one's view is the beginning of a process where that same view should be diversified by the perspectives of their peers.
Our schools should also embrace the 21st century, as it relates to technological resources, and help our children refine the skills necessary for networking and deliberating beyond the school walls.
One resource that has yet to be incorporated in many schools, as a powerful tool in the ability to deliberate and network, is that of social media networks such as Facebook and Twitter. Social media is a tool that could help "flatten the walls" of our schools and allow children the opportunity to make local, national and international connections and take the idea of pluralism and diverse perspectives to a whole other level. These connections would allow students to develop their own Personal Learning Networks as a resource that could shape one's democratic path and make the act of deliberating and problem solving a global experience. Connections are at the heart of meaningful deliberation and giving our students access to ideas and opinions from around the world will not only enrich them as individuals but will also enhance entire school communities in our collective journey from "fact transmitters" to educating citizens for democratic living in a diverse society. This is our chance to implement the true Common Core - a meaningful and robust Social Studies experience where our children can practice skills related to all content areas!

Actress Hayden Panettiere has put her wedding plans on hold due to the civil unrest in her fiancé Wladimir Klitschko's native Ukraine.
The "Nashville" star announced her engagement to the Ukrainian boxer in October, and while the wedding is still on, the couple has yet to set a date due to the ongoing crisis in his homeland.
She tells Parade.com, "Everything that's happening in Ukraine definitely put a hold on things. But we have time."
Tensions in the Eastern European region were heightened last month when Russian President Vladimir Putin sent soldiers into the Ukrainian territory of Crimea following a period of civil unrest amid calls for political change.
Panettiere previously showed her support for citizens in Ukraine by joining protesters in the country last year.
Meanwhile, Klitschko's brother Vitali has announced plans to run for mayor of Kiev.
He previously entered into the race to replace ousted leader Viktor Yanukovych, but withdrew earlier this month.

So I did some research. The film is helmed by the directing duo -- and identical twins -- Hughes brothers, whose last film was 2001's From Hell. Interesting. They are also known from their debut hit, Menace II Society.
Sure, this will be hard to get to see in the theater with a new baby at home ("go to the movies while you still can" was the second most recommended thing after "get some sleep" from everyone), but I very much want to see this as I'm a big fan of the post-apoc genre of books, comics, and films ever since seeing the Mad Max films in my youth.
[addition: very cool trailer I just found, here]

Both Syrian and Iran are making bold threats following a surprise Israeli airstrike in Syrian territory on Wednesday.
Iran's deputy foreign minister told state TV that the "Israeli bombing in Syria will have grave consequences on Tel Aviv," Haaretz reports.
On Saturday a top aide to Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said that any "attack on Syria is considered (an) attack on Iran and Iran's allies."
Syria's ambassador to Lebanon said the Damascus has "the option and the surprise to retaliate," Al Jazeera reports.
Early Wednesday Israeli jets bombed a target in southwest Syria.
Syria, Iran and Hezbollah contend that the Israeli target was a military research center in Jamraya, three miles from Damascus and eight miles from the Lebanese border.
U.S. officials, Syrian rebels and regional security sources told Reuters the warplanes hit a weapons convoy carrying antiaircraft missiles from Syria to Hezbollah in Lebanon while rebels attacked the facility at about the same time with "six 120 millimetre mortars."
Either way there is no doubt that the Israeli strike has raised the geopolitical conflict in the region to the next level. Mark Urban of Newsnight details how the attack is one more sign of an alarming deterioration of the security situation across the Middle East.
Arab League chief Nabil al-Arabi condemned the strike, saying that the "Israeli aggression... is a clear violation of the territory of an Arab state and of its sovereignty, going against the UN charter and the rules of international law."
Russia's foreign ministry said that "we are dealing with unprovoked attacks on targets on the territory of a sovereign country, which blatantly violates the UN Charter and is unacceptable, no matter the motives to justify it."
Israeli security chief Yaakov Amidror is currently in Russia to discuss the Syrian crisis while Israel Defense Force intelligence chief Maj. Gen. Aviv Kochavi is in Washington for consultations with American officials.
On Tuesday Israeli Minister of Home Front Defence Avi Dichter told Israel Radio that options to prevent Syria from using or transferring chemical or conventional weapons included deterrence and "attempts to hit the stockpiles."
Diplomats in the Middle East familiar with Jamraya told Reuters that the sprawling complex is a crucial element of Syria's missile program that also has a chemical weapons facility.
A Free Syrian Army statement said that Iranian, Russian and Hezbollah members were at the complex helping develop chemical and other weapons including 'barrel bombs' used by Assad's air force.
Agence France-Presse notes that earlier this week Israel transferred two batteries of its Iron Dome anti-missile system to the the country's north, and demand for gas masks almost tripled in January.
Former top military intelligence official Danny Rothschild recently told army radio that Israel "could face an attack by Hezbollah or possibly Syria, that's why we must prepare our defences and Iron Dome is part of that."
On Tuesday Israeli Air Force (IAF) chief Major-General Amir Eshel told an international aerospace conference that the IAF was involved in "a campaign between wars," working with Israeli intelligence agencies in often covert missions "to reduce the immediate threats [and] to create better conditions in which we will be able to win the wars, when they happen."

Meet Our Study Leader: Louie Giglio
I know, because I've been there. I've come face-to-face with giants of my own and experienced God's power and strength that surpasses my best efforts. I'm going to share from that experience as we carve open the biblical story of David and Goliath. Through that story, you'll discover some tools and new habits, some new perspectives, a fresh way of walking through life. The plan toward freedom is doable and straight-forward. It invites your success. But first we need to realize that it's not a simple wish that your giant will fall someday, some time. No. It's a mandate.
Goliath must fall."

- Peter Martin: Cormann silence on neutering of financial advice reforms speak volumes
- CBA chief needs to speak up and soon for bank's good
The Liberal senator, whose dissenting report the federal government is relying on to hose down calls for a royal commission on Commonwealth Bank, did not turn up to a crucial hearing at which victims of the bank's financial planning scandal gave evidence.
Official Hansard transcripts show David Bushby, who was deputy chairman of the inquiry committee, did not attend on April 10 this year, when it also heard from bank whistleblower Jeff Morris, CBA executives and Australian Securities and Investments Commission officials.
Senator Bushby, regarded in Canberra as a friend of Finance Minister Mathias Cormann, also headed a smaller Senate inquiry that gave the thumbs-up to the government's roll-back of protection for consumers of financial advice.
The government introduced regulations on Monday watering down important aspects of the Future of Financial Advice (FOFA) laws, but Labor, the Greens and the Palmer United Party are set to disallow the regulations once the Senate sits again in a week.
Victim Merilyn Swan, who gave evidence on April 10, said that, unlike other senators on the multi-party committee, ''Senator Bushby has never spoken with us and he certainly does not know us''.
In her evidence, Ms Swan told the economics reference committee about how one of CBA's worst planners, ''Dodgy'' Don Nguyen, took less than two years to reduce her parents' $260,000 retirement nest-egg to just $92,000.
''Senator Bushby didn't even bother to attend nor listen via phone hook-up to the compelling evidence given by the whistleblower Jeff Morris, and the CBA victims,'' she said.
She dismissed Senator Bushby's six-page report as ''irrelevant'' when put against the 547 pages making up the majority findings.
''Shame on Senator Cormann for embracing six pages from a 553-page report because he and the government are too frightened to have a royal commission into the CBA,'' she said.
''They should be more frightened of the fact that the largest and most profitable Australian bank has been found to be involved in systematic fraud, forgery and misleading and deceptive conduct and has, within its senior management, individuals who were so bereft of personal and professional integrity that a systematic cover-up was preferable to admitting liability and taking responsible action to address the issues.''
Senator Bushby was unavailable for comment on Tuesday.
Mr Morris, whose disclosures to Fairfax Media triggered the Senate inquiry, said the senator's dissenting report was ''rather sketchy''. ''I was disappointed that Mathias Cormann was hosing down the prospect of a royal commission even before he had read the comprehensive 550-page bipartisan report,'' he said.
In a statement, Senator Cormann said: "The most important question on my mind is what course of action is most likely to achieve a satisfactory resolution for victims with legitimate outstanding and unresolved issues … I am not convinced that yet another inquiry at this point is the best and most efficient way to resolve outstanding issues for victims."

Maybe they should pack catnip in their holsters.
It seems that in separate incidents, three kittens were tossed out of vehicles halfway across the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, only to be scooped up by animal-loving MTA Bridge and Tunnel police officers.
Two cute and fuzzy 2-month-old calico kittens were adopted by the officers. Sadly, the third kitten was so badly injured that it had to be put down.
The first incident occurred two weeks ago.
Alerted by motorists who saw a kitten huddling against the roadway's wall, Officer Trevor Gibson of Arden Heights slowly drove his patrol car across the upper level until he found the little cat, midspan.
"It was up against the wall, scared to death," said Sgt. Kenny Winslow of Bay Terrace.
From his trunk, Gibson pulled out a pair of gloves and a blanket, and gently placed the kitten in a box. It was brought to Rosebank Animal Hospital, but the kitten's injuries were so serious, it had to be euthanized.
A few days later, a kitten was rescued on the upper level by Officers Joseph Dahl and Rosario Marino. This story has a happier ending.
On-duty a few miles away at the Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel, Officer Carlos Martinez, whose 17-year-old cat died recently, heard the news of the rescue over his radio and called back to the bridge officers that he wanted to adopt the kitten.
"Any cat that survives the upper level deserves a second chance," Martinez said.
The officer said he named the kitten "Miley," after his 6-year-old daughter Victoria's favorite pop star, Miley Cyrus.
After Miley's rescue, Officer Sabatino Ilardo of South Beach was on patrol when he saw a kitten curled up against the curb on the lower level.
He, too, tried to scoop up the cat in a blanket, but it ran away from him and jumped onto a support pillar overhanging the water. With nowhere else for the kitten to go but down, the officer was able to grab it. Officer Anthony Giacchi of Fort Wadsworth dubbed the little cat "Elle," as in the double L of lower level.
The kittens were treated for free by Dr. Christine Brognano of Rosebank Animal Hospital. Elle will remain at the vet's office for a while longer while she recovers from ringworm, fleas and ear mites.
Then, she's going home with Officer John Esposito of Graniteville -- and she's not the first pet he has brought home from work.
The self-proclaimed "cat freak," who sports a cat tattoo on his leg, rescued another cat a while back, found, appropriately enough, on the bridge's catwalk. A co-worker took the cat home and named her -- drumroll, please -- Bridget.
The officers believe the cats were most likely thrown out of moving cars.
Since they were found midway across the country's longest suspension bridge, "I doubt the mother cat left them there," Winslow said.
The kitten rescues are just the latest in the Verrazano's walk on the wild side.
From the peregrine falcons roosting above, the poison ivy-eating goats grazing below and the raccoons, dogs, and turkeys that have been rounded up on the roadway over the years, the call of the wild is all in a day's work for its crews.
-- Contributed by Maura Yates

Tinie Tempah is set to make his mark on Live on Letterman tomorrow May 17th, bringing the sound of urban Britain to New York City. The London MC's appearance coincides with the US release of his debut Disc-Overy.
Last.fm Trends is looking into what Tinie's fans are playing most, ahead of his live webcast.
"Pass Out" reached number one in the UK charts, and it's still his most popular track to date with an overall count of 882,082 scrobbles from 173,023 listeners. The rest of his album tracks lag behind somewhat, but its US release could see a re-shuffle of the charts.
Disc-Overy has been made over for the US, featuring two new tracks: "Love Suicide" (originally by Ester Dean) and next single "Till I'm Gone" featuring rising star Wiz Khalifa. "Invincible" with Kelly Rowland previously brought a familiar voice to Tinie's rhymes, but you can discover new favorites tomorrow.
Catch Tinie Tempah Live on Letterman, Tuesday May 17 8pm ET / 5pm PT on CBS.com. This exclusive online concert is brought to you by AT&T – Re-think Possible.
Meanwhile, Last.fm Trends brings you the news in scrobbles every weekday.

BATON ROUGE — The long-awaited site for renewing commercial licenses with state Wildlife and Fisheries is ready to begin processing applications, state officials say.
BATON ROUGE — The long-awaited site for renewing commercial licenses with state Wildlife and Fisheries is ready to begin processing applications, state officials say.
It's a gift fishermen have sought for years.
Prior to this change, renewals either had to be mailed or hand delivered to the department's offices.
Rep. Joe Harrison, R-Napoleonville, said it's a "hardship" fishermen shouldn't have to suffer, given the cost-effectiveness and ease of web-based services.
"You have to contend with the price of gas, drive all the way to Baton Rouge and lose precious time dealing with paperwork," Harrison said.
He made such an argument during this year's legislative session when the House and Senate approved his bill to put all commercial-license renewals online.
The resulting law states an online "license may be issued to the person who held that same license in the immediately preceding license year."
Online renewals can be found at www.wlf.louisiana.gov/licenses. The cost varies based on the renewal needed.
The portal also offers other services, such as renewing boat registrations, purchasing certain hunting and fishing licenses and validating deer and turkey tags.
Hunters can also use the site to get their Harvest Information Program certification, which is federally required of all migratory birds hunters.
Users can even use the web to update addresses and personal information.
"We have advanced electronic systems at our fingertips," Harrison said in an earlier interview. "Let's use them."
Based on an analysis conducted by the Legislative Fiscal Office in concert with the department, the online-renewal system is expected to cost the department about $18,000 this fiscal year. The current fiscal year ends June 30.
That's how much money it will cost to update the existing system to handle renewals.
However, the law that was passed earlier this year to create the renewal system allows for a fee of no more than $2 per license to be charged to users.
It's estimated that the department will be able to sell 10 percent of all such licenses online, or 7,500 licenses, annually. If that number holds true this fiscal year, the department would collect about $15,000 in new fees.
But that doesn't mean the department will be able to keep all the money.
The new law also allows for a "transaction fee imposed by a contractor that has been hired by the department to operate the system." The fiscal analysis pegged the transaction fee around 72 cents per license.
If 7,500 licenses are sold online, the department will pay the operating contractor about $5,400 per year.
The remaining $1.28 per license — that's the original $2 fee minus the 72-cent transaction charge — "will be used to offset expenses to develop and operate the internet system," according to the fiscal analysis.

Three words to describe this class are athleticism, versatility and intelligence. All of them were highly-recruited.
"When I got here in the spring of 2007 I started then focusing on the class of 2009," said Ireland. "It has been a process of communication with most of these players for two years.
"it is exciting to finally get them signed. It will be even more exciting in preseason when we get them on campus. They come from very good club teams. They have been well coached. They will bring new blood and new energy."
Martika Powe, 5-foot-4, is from Indianapolis, Ind., and will play a midfield position. She was an All-State performer in 2008 for North Central High School, scoring four goals and adding five assists.
"Martika runs very well," said Ireland. "She will probably play as a holding midfielder or an attacking midfielder. "She has good speed and is very quick. She is also very skillful and has a very high soccer I.Q. She comes from one of the top club teams in the country."
Emily Longden, 5-5, is from Jacksonville, Fla. She will be a forward or a midfielder. She served as captain of the varsity soccer team at the Providence School in 2008-2009.
"We found her fairly late in the recruiting process," said Ireland. "We first saw her at the Disney Showcase, a huge tournament. She is one of the most fit players I have seen in a long time. She doesn't stop running.
"She has the engine, the speed and a lot of ability. She has very strong work ethic."
Taylor Ann Summers is also from Jacksonville where she was a defender for the Stanton School. She is the first player Ireland ever recruited at Lipscomb. Ireland projects her as possibly an outside back or as a midfielder.
"I saw her at a tournament in Decatur, Ala.," said Ireland. "I found out later that her parents went to Lipscomb.
"We will look at her primarily as an outside defender. She is very smart with the ball. She possesses it very well. She keeps it simple. She fits the system we are looking for. She plays on one of the top club teams in Florida. It is not a big gap between their club soccer teams and college."
Erin Zerio, 5-6, is from Novi, Mich. She will be one of two goaltenders trying to replace former All-Atlantic Sun Conference goalkeeper Katie Shelton. She was All-Region and All-District and Third Team All-State in 2007-2008.
She recorded 42 shutouts in her four –year varsity career. She recorded a 0.44 goals against average and a 60-5-5 record overall.
"Erin is very athletic," said Ireland. "She is very good in the goal. She is very strong. She has great hands. She has the ability to play this year for sure.
Katie Wood, a defender, is also from the Stanton School in Jacksonville. An All-State selection, she is expected to play a center back position.
"Katie is very good in the air," said Ireland. "That is the thing we noticed right away. She is physically strong. She is dominant in the air which is something we have struggled with.
Andie Thornton, 5-7, is one of two players from David Lipscomb High School who will be part of the team this fall. She is projected to be an outside back or a midfielder. She was an All-State selection in 2007 and All-Region and All-District in 2007 and 2008. She was also the Most Valuable Defender on the 2007 and 2008 Lipscomb teams.
"Andie is very athletic," said Ireland. "She is very quick with very good speed. We are excited about her potential."
Ally Marler, 5-9, is from Smyrna, Tenn. She will also be competing for the goalkeeper spot. She was an All-Region pick in 2008 and was 2008 District 9-AAA Defensive Player of the Year.
"Allie has good size and is very strong," said Ireland. "She reminds me of Katie because of her physical size. She is vocal. She has that kind of personality.
"Both she and Erin have a lot of potential. It will be interesting to see how it turns out."
Courtney Williams, 5-3, is also from Indianapolis where she played for North Central High School. She will be a defender or possibly a defensive midfielder.
"Courtney is very aggressive," said Ireland. "She has the ability to be a very good marker if we face a player that we need to mark. She is another player who is very athletic and can play in the back or in the midfield."
Hope Proffitt, 5-5, is also from David Lipscomb High School. The three-time All-State selection (2006, 2007, 2008) has the potential to play at several spots. She was also the team captain and team MVP in 2007 and 2008. She is second in career scoring and first in career assists for David Lipscomb High School. She also holds the single season assists record.
"Hope has all the tools to be a really, really good player," said Ireland. "She has a lot of upside.
"We will look at her as an attacking player. She is the most versatile player we have coming in."
Kameron Stilwell, 5-6, is from Orange Park, Fla., near Jacksonville. She plays on the same club at Katie Wood and Taylor Ann. She was an All-State selection in 2008-2009 and the team captain in 2009 of her Fleming Island High School team.
"She is super aggressive with very good speed," said Ireland. "She can play as a shutdown defender on the other team's best forward. She can play in the midfielder and guard the best midfielder on the other team. We can also put her up top in a forward position."

18 Caramel and Toffee Dessert Recipes We Love
Whether it's in soft and sticky or sweet and crunchy form, caramel and toffee have the power to make any dessert especially comforting. One bite of the sweet (and sometimes salty) goodness and you're transported back to a simpler time when buying a candy bar after school could solve any problem. Here are some tasty desserts that highlight the magical thing that happens when you start cooking your sugar.
Caramel Apples: A childhood carnival favorite to make at home. Tart and crunchy apples are a perfect match with sweet caramel.
Brioche Monkey Bread: A more sophisticated version of the summer camp classic with broiche bread filling in for the usual store bought biscuits.
Toffee Bars: Slabs of chewy toffee topped with chocolate and almonds are a classic brownie alternative.
Beer and Salted Caramel Ice Cream: Salted Caramel Ice Cream with an alcoholic twist! The beer makes for a light and fluffy spoonful and heightens the caramel flavor.
Cardamom Caramel Palmiers: These aromatic Palmiers have the perfect flaky to caramelized ratio and are elevated with a touch of cardamom.
Salted Caramel Blended Ice Milk: A blended coffee drink without the coffee, Caramel Blended Ice Milk is the perfect sweet beverage for a caffeine free morning.
Caramel Flan: A wonderful balance of caramel and custard, this fail proof flan is a good recipes to have in your back pocket!
Coconut Macaroons with Salted Caramel: Sweet and sticky coconut macaroons topped with more sweet and sticky (in the form of caramel) makes for one decadent cookie!
Caramel Cake: Classic caramel cake made with a dense vanilla cake base and a thick layer of crunchy, hardened caramel sauce over top.
Spicy Peanut Caramel Corn: A delicious, crunchy, nutty, and sweet at home version of the Cracker Jack.
Caramel Sauce: Every scoop of ice cream needs a sticky sauce drizzled on top and this caramel version packs a nice salty punch.
Salted Caramel and Walnut Slice: A coconut and walnut shortbread cookie topped with a thick layer of honey based caramel.
Caramel Apple Cider Jelly: All of the flavors of fall packed into one jar, this jelly highlights caramel with apple cider and spices.
Chocolate Covered Pretzel Toffee: Chocolate covered pretzels are always delicious, but add toffee and you've got a full on dessert.
Toffee Chunk Cookies: Chocolate covered toffee chunks make for a wonderful chocolate chip replacement in any chocolate chip cookie.
Chocolate Sticky Toffee Pudding: Spiced date filled and chocolate sponge cakes drenched in an Irish cream liqueur toffee sauce makes for the ideal dinner party dessert.
Salted Caramel Apple Dip: A creamy take on the salty and sweet combination serves as a great dip on a fall day.
Milk Chocolate Cookies with Ginger and Toffee: Tangy ginger and sweet toffee bits amp up a classic chocolate chip recipe.

"Layton, [Lancashire] is mentioned in the Domesday Survey, and in former times was of some importance as containing a mansion belonging to the ancient family of Botiller or Butler, barons of Warrington." [2]CITATION[CLOSE]
Lewis, Samuel, A Topographical Dictionary of England. Institute of Historical Research, 1848, Print. His descendents began to use the surname Butler around the year 1220. His direct descendant became Earl of Ormond in 1328 and their stronghold was Kilkenny castle. The family were rivals of the powerful Fitzgeralds and their kin, and the effective government of Ireland was held by one or the other of these two great Norman houses until the death of the Great Duke of Ormond in 1688.
Many members of the family were ardent Jacobites, including the Abbé James Butler of Nantes, who was chaplain to "Bonnie Prince Charlie" during the last Jacobite uprising of 1745. Despite the strong Irish side of the family, the English side remained strong too. Laughton-En-Le-Morthen in the West Riding of Yorkshire was the site of one such family. "Laughton Hall, the ancient seat of the Butler family, is a spacious mansion, commanding extensive views." [2]CITATION[CLOSE]
