Is the Hop Harvest Better This Year Than Last? — Founders Harvest Ale 2011
There must have been an issue with the hop harvests last year, at least in the midwest. Nearly all of the fresh-hop beers that I saw reviews of last year seemed a little lackluster and bland. While I ended up giving the 2010 Founders Harvest Ale a B+ overall, I definitely didn't think it was all it could be.
I don't want to bother shooting another review for this one, but I wanted to give the 2011 a shake.
Even just starting the pour I can smell the nice fresh resiny hops. Beautiful floral notes, some nice pine background. Almost like a Christmas tree. I'm more attuned to hops than I was last year, but I suspect it's definitely a more pungent hop aroma.
Ditto for the flavor. A bit more earthy, but with those definite pine and floral resins. Slight golden malt backbone provides just a tiny bit of sweetness, but this beer is definitely a showcase for hops. At 6.5% it's not quite as big as a traditional IPA, nor is it quite as heavily bittered, but drinking this beer less than two weeks after bottling (bottling date: 09/22/2011) definitely fulfills my hop quota.
If the 2010 bottling was a B+, this is an A-, maybe even an A. Ridiculously drinkable as well. Drink it fresh or don't drink it at all.
Beyond the Pour grade: A-
Can Anheuser-Busch Make a Decent ESB? (Goose Island Harvest Ale 2011)
Goose Island Harvest Ale
English Special Bitter
This is sort of the moment of truth, isn't it? Harvest Ale will be the first seasonal release from Goose Island made since their sort-of acquisition by A-B Inbev. I don't have a clear memory of what this beer tasted like in previous years, but if it's a solid ESB we have room to hope that Goose Island's other seasonalsbourboncountystout!will still be decent.
So let's get the damn thing in a glass and find out!
Pours very clear orange/red body with almost no haziness at all. Typically with an ESB you have a bit of haze, but nothing here. It gives me about a finger and a half of white head that dissipates pretty quickly. Aroma is very English, with lots of biscuity toasty malt and a very dry character. Love to see what this one's like on cask — I'll have to see if it's available next time I stop by the Clybourn location in Chicago.
I digress. Flavor is very much like the aroma, somewhat sweet with lots of fruity esters. Very malty and toasty, drying on the finish with a hint of spice quality. Aftertaste is clean but biscuity. Nothing too complex –certainly not my favorite ESB!– but it's definitely solid. Tastes like a very authentic example of the style.
I've got to say, this bodes well for the future of Goose Island. We'll see how it goes, but for now color me cautiously optimistic.
Beyond the Pour grade: B+
Sierra Nevada Southern Hemisphere Harvest 2011
So I did a video review of the Sierra Nevada Southern Hemisphere Harvest Ale last year, which means that I'm not really interested in shooting another review for this year's batch. Even if that was very early in my video reviews, so the video basically sucked donkey balls. Instead I'm going to use this year's version as an excuse to get back into text reviews. Just got off from work so it should be a nice refreshing beer.
Pours a dark coppery orange color with a thick slightly off-white head. Leaves significant lacing on the glass. I could smell the earthy spicy hops the second I cracked the cap on the bottle, and in the glass it's even more impressive. Nice golden malt notes underneath, very bready and biscuity, with slight caramel notes.
Damn this beer goes down smooth. Clean bready sweet malt balances beautifully with the spicy earthy hop character. The hops leave a slightly metallic spicy "sting" on my palate and tongue after the beer finishes. I'm not sure how fresh this bottle is but the hop character tastes quite nice regardless — perhaps it could have a bit more of that "bright" bitterness as opposed to the spicy quality here, but it's a perfectly good sessioner.
The issue with these fresh-hop beers is that despite their drinkability, which would make them good everyday beers, they're by definition only briefly available once (or, if you're Sierra Nevada and want to import fresh hops from New Zealand, twice) a year. The expense of getting hops that fresh also makes these beers a bit pricey — $6.99 for a 25oz bottle isn't crazy expensive, but it's more than I'd pay for a simple sessionable pale ale. Overall, a solid beer, well-put-together, but nothing really worth dying for. In other words, a perfectly "Sierra Nevada" kind of product.
Beyond the Pour rating: B

After checking the generic drug approvals on FDA's website today, I was disappointed to see that OGD only approved 11 ANDAs in the month of November. Prior to this, the lowest month was July 2014 when OGD approved only 18 ANDAs. This comes after October's encouraging numbers, with OGD issuing 45 ANDA approvals.
If we take a walk down memory lane, back to the days of the generic drug scandal, approvals fell from 50-60 per month to a mere trickle of about 10 or less a month, until things started improving towards the end of FY 1991.
Right now, approval data is the only information relative to OGD productivity that is publically available as the Generic Drug Monthly Activity Report apparently fell victim to the new CDER IT platform (see previous story here). The approval figures are obviously not representative of the total body of work that OGD produces as that includes (among other things) responses to controlled correspondence, Complete Response Letters, industry meetings, policy and procedure development, but it is certainly at the top of the list as the number one output product by which the generic industry gauges OGD success.
According to the Activity Report, the last approval for the month of November was issued on November 24, 2014. The holiday and vacation over the Thanksgiving weekend routinely impacts the end of November, and we know that the end of December is also relatively slow for OGD approvals, but usually not so for submissions as firms race to the end of the year to get their applications into OGD. But, this year, we may not even know what those submissions numbers look like until the IT folks in CDER can figure out how to generate the necessary reports that can be publically disseminated. Unfortunately, this is another setback for the Generics program and we don't even know how the new IT platform problem actually impacts OGD productivity or ability to track required data under GDUFA.

Nokia Corp. (NOK) said Tuesday it has now secured 37 fifth-generation commercial contracts, up from the 36 that it disclosed in its first-quarter earnings last month.
Twenty of those contracts are with named customers, including T-Mobile, AT&T Inc. (T), Saudi Telecom, and Telia Co. AB (TELIA.SK), it added.
In a statement released in conjunction with the company's annual general meeting, Chief Executive Rajeev Suri said the 5G-driven spending cycle that is now building momentum supports Nokia's end-to-end, full-portfolio strengths. Consequently, end-to-end sales as a percentage of sales pipeline are now at the highest point ever.
"5G is now accelerating and the power of Nokia's end-to-end portfolio is being recognized," he said.

Jessica & Brian: A Lush and Lovely Herb-Filled Wedding at Ojai Valley Inn and Spa
Fresh lavenders, blushes, blues, and greens created the perfect spring palette for Jessica and Brian's wedding at Ojai Valley Inn and Spa. The beautiful outdoor ceremony boasted an abundance of greenery and chic decor, including potted flowers and plants and metallic bohemian lanterns. Hints of teal and terracotta added a desert vibe, fitting for the Spanish style architecture and details of the venue. The romantic huppah flaunted airy cream linens and greenery and lanterns hung from above, creating an intimate and stylish setting for the couple's ceremony. With mountain views and natural accents, the outdoor venue provided comfort for each and every guest.
Encompassing the couple's desire for an outdoor garden space as well as a ballroom feel, designer Kristin Banta Events and florist R Jack Balthazar created an indoor pergola for the space, donned in overgrown vines and metallic lanterns, a certainly unique and amazing extension of the ceremony decor. While the pergola defined the dance floor, guests were seated at tables with to-die-for elegant place settings. Vintage chic napkins tied with twine and a lavender sprig added a dainty detail, contrasting the bold table decor. Rattan chargers, gold flatware and various styles of purple napkins were accompanied by one-of-a-kind centerpieces that included an array of florals, greenery, glassware, amethyst stones and candles to create a romantic ambiance.
The five-tiered cake showcased texturized layers and lavender accents, with an ivory flower to top. A wide bar perfectly embellished with wood, iron and florals and a stage flanked opposite sides of the ballroom. Treats of all kinds, including soft pretzels, burgers and popcorn was served as everyone celebrated Jessica and Brian's marriage.

We definitely need more people in the world like these two! They absolutely rock! We photographed Lianne's proposal to Rachel in St Ives last year, and had our fingers firmly crossed they would book us for their wedding day at the beautiful Trevenna. Trevenna is a venue I really don't shoot enough at, and since my last visit, it was clear that they had upped their game and are quickly becoming one of Cornwall's top venues. (I need to shoot here more!)
Lianne and Rachel's wedding was full of thought and details, I absolutely loved it! If you or somebody you know are getting married at Trevenna and need inspiration for your big day, then you need to look at this blog.
I arrived early on Easter bank holiday Monday and was greeted by the most happiest and enthusiastic of friends and family, I don't think I stopped smiling with them all day. The weather blessed us with an outdoor ceremony and Lianne and Rachel celebrated with their guests whilst enjoying those first few moments of married life.
It was super to be working alongside Joel from Dove Films, and we'll share his gorgeous creation in due course, I'm sure it'll be a beauty.
Here are a few previews from their wedding day…

Lexington Vice Mayor Jim Gray has called a special meeting of the Urban County Council for 1 p.m. Tuesday to address the temporary closing of Firehouse No. 4 on Jefferson Street.
The firehouse was closed for 24 hours Saturday by Mayor Jim Newberry's administration as a cost-cutting measure.
"I called the meeting because when it comes to people's lives and safety, they deserve a say in what happens," Gray said Sunday evening. "I think we need to give the public a chance to understand what's going on, because they're anxious."
Newberry has said the safety of area residents was not in jeopardy because there are four other fire houses within a 1.6-mile radius of the closed station. Firefighters protested Saturday, saying the closing endangered nearby residents.
Gray, who is running against Newberry for mayor in 2010, said he called the meeting in response to concerns expressed by several council members, including Linda Gorton, Andrea James and Tom Blues.
Gray said he expects the city's finance department and the fire department to provide information at the meeting.
In late November, Newberry said the city might consider layoffs, pay cuts, furloughs and the elimination of city programs to stem an estimated shortfall of $12 million to $13 million. City government division directors were asked to propose ways to cut expenses by 5 percent.

Workers Claim Six Flags Neglects Its Animals
FAIRFIELD, Calif. (CN) – Two top directors of animal care claim in court that Six Flags fired and defamed them for blowing the whistle on its inadequate care of animals.
Michael Muraco had been director of animal care at the Six Flags theme park in Vallejo since 2007 when he was fired in November last year. His wife Holley Muraco had been its zoological reproduction physiologist since 2012. She was fired in February this year, they say in their Oct. 14 lawsuit in Solano County Court.
The Muracos say they told management repeatedly that crumbling infrastructure, poor water quality, improper diets, overmedication, improper surgical procedures, abusive training techniques, insufficient salt in the tanks and other compliance issues were endangering the health of the animals, and in some cases endangering employees and the public.
When two baby dolphins died at the park last year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture found that poor water quality was a factor in the deaths, the Muracos say.
Michael Muraco says he told federal investigators there were problems in the avian and terrestrial facilities as well. For example, "a badly damaged elephant enclosure was not repaired until an elephant was caught climbing over the enclosure on a crowded day," according to the complaint.
Six Flags denied all of the claims.
"We provide excellent care for all of our animals. The lawsuit is without merit and we intend to vigorously defend ourselves," Six Flags spokeswoman Nancy Chan said.
Things apparently got nasty during the federal investigation. The Muracos claim that , to retaliate for their complaints of inadequate veterinary care, two Six Flags veterinarians, defendants Diana Proctor and Vanessa Fravel, told investigators that Holley was doing research without a permit. Holley Muraco says it was determined that no permit was needed because her research was not invasive, but her reputation was damaged.
The Muracos say the USDA cited Six Flags for many of the issues they had raised, but when Michael asked for resources to address it, he was told that nothing could be done until the USDA appeal was final.
The Muracos claim the final defendant, Six Flags employee Sam Dover, told co-workers that they were the reason the dolphins had died, and they would be fired for it.
"Less than a month after Michael Muraco took a stand to protect the animals, he was terminated from his position as director of animal care," the complaint states.
Then Six Flags cut off Holley's 5-year research contract, with two years remaining, and fired her.
The Muracos seek lost wages and punitive damages for Labor Code violations, defamation, intentional infliction of emotional distress and wrongful firing.
They are represented by J. Gary Gwilliam with Gwilliam, Ivary, Chiosso, Cavalli & Brewer, of Oakland.

- Miscellaneous expenses account for nearly one-third of overall expenses primarily due to a car service bill. The service was long overdue and had to be done. Hopefully, May will see a drastic cut in this category.
- Used my credit card for booking airline tickets to Mumbai and back (for my graduation). May should see a zero-charge on my credit card.
- EMIs continue to haunt me! I still think of EMIs as a curse on mankind.
- Overall expenses down 22.19% from March, which was a terribly expensive month. Expenditure on petrol down by a whopping 40.47%.
On the positive side, I get my first post-MBA salary in May. That's something to look forward to. I plan to construct a savings and investment strategy towards the end of May.

There are two ways to spend Federal Dollars. Spend them on "operating costs" such as Medicare, Medicaid, Military, Social Security, interest on debt. They may also be invested in "capital costs" such as road and rail infrastructure; replacement infrastructure for water, sewer and "wire" utilities; new sources and distribution of energy; research and development ways to derive more benefit for our dollars; education and training of the replacements and expanded staffing of our medical services.
There are two ways to raise the funds that we spend and invest. We can tax various activities and assets to generate revenues and we can borrow the funds from people and countries that have a trade surplus with the US. The FED issuing more dollars into the economy is merely a form of borrowing against the future.
Borrowing to pay immediate operating expenses is really a bad decision. It is the same for the nation is it is for an individual or family who charges a lot of expenses on a credit card when there is insufficient income to pay the balance due each month. Many people got into difficult position with their debt when they counted on a pay increase or bonus that did not materialize. The setback may also be attributable to an unexpected expense such as illness, injury or layoff.
Borrowing to build for the future or facilitate lower monthly expenses is a good reason to borrow. College educations, continuing education credits, replacing an old car, replacing an old furnace all can bring about a better financial situation down the road.
Not taxing enough assets at a high enough rate for our immediate operating expenses leads to bad borrowing. Bad borrowing leads to present people leaving a financial burden for the next generation if it is not paid up within about 20 years. Bad borrowing is repeated each year such that the debt can never be repaid by those who benefited from it.
Borrowing to build a 50-year bridge is a reasonable debt if the balance is paid off in the 50 years that the bridge will stand. Borrowing to build a power plant of any kind is a reasonable debt since it will keep making electricity for many decades and a second and third generation may still benefit from it.
Obama's problem today is that it is on his watch that all the neglect of several decades has come together with the reduction in revenues that the nation needs for paying the obligations. We did not tax enough when we needed to do so. We did not pay down our debt balances. We spent one trillion dollars on a decade of war in two countries. We watched millions of jobs move beyond our borders. We allowed ourselves to have a massive trade deficit with China and the OPEC nations. A lot of that trade deficit came back to us as credit on easy terms, therefore we were not eager to stop it.
We watched as the largest population cohort, the 79 million Baby Boomers, aged from worker status to Social Security status while doing nothing to prepare for the cost of that money. They aged out of Blue Cross, et al, into Medicare. 2011 is the year that the floodgates open for Medicare enrollments. As people reach 65 they become eligible to start collecting Social Security payments, too. We can make President Obama shoulder the burden for the debts incurred on behalf of those millions of Americans. After all it is on his watch that it starts. Problem is that even with a second presidential term in office, the problem of retiree income and health care payments will long out live the Obama Presidency.
The growth in SSI recipients will continue through 2039. After that year, barring any major life extending factors, the over 65 population will begin to drop. By 2044 every Baby Boomer will be over 80 or dead. Although the Baby Boom population will be aging out of the system, there is a second wave of future beneficiaries, not quite as large, following close on their heels.
Congress, economists, and visionaries need to figure out how we will provide for our non-working parents in their last few decades of life. One political party wants to curtail SS and Medicare in order to contain costs. It is ironic (read idiotic) that their mouth-pieces in the pseudo-news media are the ones who are warning that their opposition wants "death panels" that will ration health care and turn medical decisions into a government bureaucracy. There is no faster way to kill off elderly people by the thousands than to have them starve in cold dark quarters because they have no money for food and heat or access to doctors.
It is not just the publically funded retirement income and health care that is growing without control. The lack of control is not for a lack of trying. The lack of control is due to the increased numbers of people who each year age out of their jobs. Their employer funded pensions and health insurance continues to mount. As the balance sheet accrues more retiree expenses, more of the company income must be applied to those accounts. This means less profits for the owners and shareholders. This means higher prices for the products and services. Higher prices make the business less competitive in the global market where foreign laborers either get health care and pensions from their government or they get nothing at all.
The bottom line to us is that we need a new paradigm of funding our retirement and health care costs. In our purely Capitalist system of business where all the means of production are in the hands of private citizens and private businesses, the only method of funding for our retirees and other non-working people is to levy a tax, or legislate that an employer pay all the bills.
President Obama has had the supreme misfortune to have been the man elected to the Presidency at the crossroads of global change. He is faced with powerful forces that that no other American President has had to face. His war legacy will be the "War on Global Economic Collapse." It is a WWIII even though no Nukes are being hurled at each other. The fact that only a few burning tires and minor demonstrations have yet perforated the curtain erected by partisan media on both sides is a testament to the leadership of our President and the many other national leaders who are trying to keep a smoldering world from bursting into flames. When America went to war in Afghanistan and Iraq, the ultimate cost of doing so was unimportant to Congress. We have spend more than a trillion dollars so far without a single tangible benefit or hope that any part of it will get paid back to the American taxpayer. Because we borrowed that money, our descendants unto the fourth or fifth generation will be paying that bill. Congressional partisans quibble over a few millions in earmarked funding while demanding taxbreaks or taxes to balance a budget and not stymie the economic recovery. In all this wrangling and rancor we loose sight of the need to find a solution to our poor budget practices and invest in ourselves.
We have been willing to spend $1 trillion on our current military wars. How much are we willing to pay for keeping our economies from being destroyed?

Alviks Tower
PEAB Sverige AB
Stockholm, Sweden
32500 m²
1. prize in competition. 2008
Alvik Tower is a sculptural housing complex on the waterfront in Bromma, known as a garden city in the Stockholm metropolitan area, with close proximity to Lake Mälaren and several nature reserves.
The site forms a transition zone between the city and the landscape, which has inspired the architecture. The development with 151 apartments - a fractured block of nine storeys and a landmark 18-storey tower divided into two parts - draws its angles and lines from the steepness and structure of the mountains bordering the lake Mälaren.
The layout provides each residence generous amounts of daylight and views. At the same time, the solution provides free areas which are used as squares and public spaces. With restaurants and shops on the ground floor, a large and lush courtyard and a central square oriented towards the city, the development enhances the urban environment for all residents in the area.
The tower houses the larger apartments, with multiple aspects and spacious terraces, while the lower wing houses maisonette-type homes with balconies and roof-top terraces. The sculptural angles and pre-fabricated white polished terrazzo facades give the development a bright and interesting appearance, which varies with the many different lines of sight from the surrounding city.

Nestled in the Rhone-Alpes region of central France, Saint-Etienne is a city proud of its past as an industrial and mining center. Today, professionals come for the biennial design fair, while vacationers come to visit the modern museums, tour the walkable streets, and eat in fine restaurants featuring locally sourced ingredients. Book a Saint-Etienne vacation rental near one of the city's much-beloved public squares and you'll feel like a local. Then head to one of the nature reserves just outside of town and be at one with the water birds taking it easy on the banks of the Loire.
Sights in Saint-Etienne reflect the city's rich past and stylish present. The Mine Museum features a reconstructed mine that shows visitors how workers dredged up coal in the old days, and tours help kids and history buffs explore the site's past from the 1840s to the 1970s. The Musee d'Art Moderne et Contemporain is the country's second largest modern art museum. It houses more that 15,000 works, including paintings, sculptures, and photographs. If possible, the Cite du Design is even hipper and more modern. Its glass and steel edifice is positively gleaming, and inside, diverse exhibitions are refreshed regularly.
The most popular activity among Saint-Etienne visitors is the good old-fashioned stroll. The center of local life is Place Jean Jaures, a large square with a bandstand and a border of beautiful buildings, including the town hall and the Cathedrale Saint-Charles. The Saint-Jacques district features lively streets and colorful shops, and the Place du Peuple is probably the prettiest square in the city. Every 2 years, in November, the city comes alive with the International Design Biennale, drawing artists, design executives, and students from the world's best design schools.
Saint-Etienne isn't known as a summertime tourist haven, but maybe it should be. Temps in June, July, and August are in the 70s and 80s, and sunny days are common. Winters are cold but not bitterly so. You'll want to bundle up against nighttime lows in the 30s, but you'll rarely freeze your tail off. Spring and fall see highs in the 60s, and rain showers are short and sweet. So go nuts and book your Saint-Etienne vacation rental any time of year. Just make sure you make plans in advance if you're traveling during the International Design Biennale.
A city known for making things, Saint-Etienne is still surrounded by one thing no human can produce—natural beauty. The city limits include part of Pilat Regional Nature Park, 250 square miles of protected land that includes spruce forest, meadows, and hills blanketed in tall grasses and dotted with vineyards. Your Saint-Etienne vacation rental will also be right next door to Gorges de la Loire Nature Reserve, a vast green space that hugs the Loire River and draws hikers, backpackers, fishermen, and birdwatchers from all over Europe and beyond.
Fly into Saint-Etienne (EBU-Saint-Etienne - Loire Intl.), the closest airport, located 7.7 mi (12.4 km) from the city center.
If you're traveling by train, Saint-Etienne-Carnot Station, Saint-Etienne-Le Clapier Station and Saint-Etienne Châteaucreux Station are the main stations that serve the city.

Venus Libido
If you have ever experienced what it feels like to not be at peace within yourself, to struggle with loving & appreciating yourself then you will understand the inspiration behind Venus Libido.
Venus Libido was born as a direct result of experiencing self-doubt, mental health related issues & exploring her position in this world as a woman. Her story of survival, seeking inner peace & finding value in her life plays a huge part in the messages behind her pieces. Art was a lifeline for her & she believes in sharing her story with people through her work. Her pieces are deep yet comical, strong yet relatable, controversial and in some instances, she pushes the 'socially acceptable' boundaries & calls out things even if they are taboo.
The general aesthetic of her work is colourful and vibrant. It reflects a personal irritation and bitterness that has stemmed from experiences of misogyny, patriarchy and a constant fight for equal rights for women in the work place.
Venus is a female illustrator based in London. She spent several years working within a variety of different art industries & has taken her experiences within the working world to build this great platform.
There is a part of Venus Libido in everyone and she challenges you to find it

Riana McKeith
"Art Director Quest: Lessons Learned in 10 years of Animation & Mobile Game Development"
Riana McKeith recently joined King as an Art Director in the London Studio, where she leads a talented team of artists creating the artistic vision for some of the exciting new games currently in development. Originally from an animation background, Riana has over 10 years' experience bringing charming and engaging stories to life and sharing them with players around the world. Prior to joining King, she worked as a Studio Art Director at Rovio and Wooga, as a lead artist at PopCap Games, and had the opportunity to work on several high-profile games such as Futurama: Game of Drones, Plants Vs Zombies and Bejeweled iOS.
Alexis Kennedy
Alexis Kennedy founded Failbetter Games, where he made Fallen London and Sunless Sea - both critical and commercial successes that have continued to influence the indie end of the industry He took a gap year to do guest-writing gigs for clients like BioWare, Telltale and Paradox, and now he's co-founded Weather Factory, a studio specialising in narrative experiments with a consciously indie aesthetic. Weather Factory's current project is a 'typically unclassifiable' narrative game, Cultist Simulator.
Cultist Simulator was a low-budget experimental project, and an unconventional. even divisive game. It also hit #1 on Steam and sold >50K copies in month 1. A lot of that was luck, a lot of it was marketing, but some of it was also the result of conscious design decisions. I'll talk about those.
There will be a selection of Video Games on display to be played by attendees. This selection is curated by Demo Screen.
Hosted & curated by Jamie D (@uk_resistant), Demoscreen is an occasional event to showcase up and coming indie games being created around the world.
Ranging from just started projects to newly released products, the idea of Demoscreen is to shine a light on games which might get lost in the noise and to give developers of all backgrounds a platform to be seen.

UPDATE: For the BBC's coverage of the House of Commons Wednesday, click here:
The BBC online gave us almost nonstop Rupert Murdoch coverage Tuesday, but every so often it paused to catch its breath. And during those pauses it posted an announcement, "Live BBC phone-hacking coverage will resume shortly." The scandal has a name.
Tuesday it found Murdoch grilled by the House of Commons media committee as Prime Minister Cameron rushed home from Africa to address the House Wednesday. There's a lot more on Parliament's mind than phone hacking. The MPs will want to know why Murdoch was a frequent visitor to the prime minister's residence at 10 Downing Street — entering through the back door, as Murdoch testified Tuesday. They'll want to know what Cameron was thinking when he hired as his media chief Andy Coulson, the former editor of Murdoch's now disgraced and defunct News of the World newspaper. They'll wonder why Sir Paul Stephenson, who resigned under fire as head of London's metropolitan police, has admitted that the force hired as media consultants 11 former employees of Murdoch's News International. And they'll want Cameron to tell them a lot more about the "cozy and comfortable" relationship — as he recently put it — involving Britain's police, press, and politicians, a relationship in which Murdoch's place seems to have been coziest and most comfortable.
(Here's an excellent, mildly snarky, numerical breakdown of the scandal by ProPublica, with enough links to keep you busy for hours. For instance, amount of money News International has reportedly paid to settle lawsuits from phone-hacking victims: at least $3.2 million. Amount of money News of the World allegedly spent bribing Scotland Yard officers: $161,130.)
But this is a scandal with a hook, and the hook is the phone hacking that has given it its name — in particular the hacking of the phone of a missing schoolgirl, Milly Dowler. Allegedly, thousands of phones were hacked — but Dowler's was the one that stirred Britain to abhor all the others.
Watergate was about a lot more than a break-in. But the break-in was the hook. It was a crime everyone got, and as a result the attempt to cover it up was a crime everyone got. And as a result of that, Watergate didn't go away until it brought down the ultimate cover-upper, the president.
No one without an ax to grind is saying with confidence that Cameron's job is safe. He can't do what Nixon tried to do and hide within the purple robes of state. The queen's head of state. He's just the people's humble servant, and a dead girl's phone was hacked by friends of his.

"No match?" option controls how scripts are processed
The "No match?" option controls what to do when no rules for an option are matched. You find the setting in the advanced controls of each option panel (shown as 1 in the screenshot above).
The options are:
Default: choose the option marked with "Use as default option?"
First: choose the first item in the list (also chosen if no Default is specified). Elements in the rule block can be reordered by dragging:
Skip: skip this option block all together and move on to the next
Empty: stop processing this script and return an empty VAST response (or Null JSON response)
Empty VAST response
The VAST standard specifies (Page 9, Para 5) that any ad server in the response chain that does not want to respond, or has no ad to respond with, can return an empty tag:
This option is useful if you want to not serve anything if rules are not matched. We use this for things like accurate location targeting where we don't want to serve an ad to any user with inaccurate location information.
Be aware that returning an empty VAST response is an expensive processing task and also relies on the upstream ad servers being able to replace the missed ad with another so that the opportunity to serve an ad is not missed.

The Falls
This morning was filled with a crazy few hours of travel to make it to one of the coolest sights that I have ever seen, Iguazu Falls! I had a 4:30am flight out of Paraguay that was as painful as it sounds into Buenos Aires EZE Airport, where I then took the transfer bus to Buenos Aires AEP Airport. The transfer bus is much cheaper and easier than a taxi or Uber would have been. It took about an hour to get from one airport to the other, and I then flew to Puerto Iguazú (IGR) airport in Argentina. Iguazu Falls is situated on the Argentina/Brazil border, and as a result, there are cities and airports on both sides. I then took a taxi across the border to Brazil.
I took an official taxi from the airport, and my driver was really helpful without speaking a ton of English. She knew exactly how the border crossing worked, and it was really easy! First, she showed her taxi license and I showed my passport when we were leaving Argentina. Then, when going into Brazil, we stopped, walked into immigration where there was no line, and had them stamp my passport. The drive was probably forty-five minutes total to my hotel, Hostel Paudimar Campestre, near the falls on the Brazilian side.
There is definitely a difference depending on which side of the falls you decide to visit. Argentina supposedly has more falls while Brazil has better access to the main waterfall, Devil's Throat. I chose Brazil because it is a lot to see in a more condensed area, and I had a short time frame to visit. I arrived at my hotel on the outskirts of Foz do Iguaçu that was only about five minutes from the entrance of the falls. After checking in I quickly made my way over to the falls by taxi because it was already 3pm. There is a reliable bus system to take advantage of, but with little time to use I had to take a taxi.
I bought my ticket online ahead of time so I walked right to the line for the bus into the park. You ride a double-decker bus from the entrance down to where the falls are, and there are a few other stops as well. If you wanted to, for example, you could ride a boat near the base of the falls. The bus took about ten minutes, and from the moment you are let off you can see the falls. And then you keep seeing them for as long as the eye can see. Just a heads up, there are going to be TONS of pictures throughout the rest of this post, because words alone really cannot do Iguazu Falls justice.
From the first time I saw them I was just awestruck, and it only gets so much better throughout the walk. You are dropped near the end of the falls on the Brazil side, and the walk takes you up towards Devil's Throat. All along the walk, for over twenty to thirty minutes, you just see a giant, stunning waterfalls. Most of the walk you are looking out at them from the walking trail, but towards the end, once you reach Devil's Throat, is where it gets really exciting.
There is a walkway that goes right up into the falls. You are not right under it (because that would probably kill you) but you get really close! Close enough that I was completely soaked after maybe five minutes. Thank goodness I remembered to bring my rain jacket! I spent about twenty minutes out on the platform, and I think it was the coolest part of my trip so far, right up there with Machu Picchu. It is unlike anything I have ever and will ever see again, and was so cool to be so close to. It's hard to imagine how amazing it is to have major waterfalls surrounding you for as far as the eye can see, but let me tell you it surpasses whatever you can imagine!
After walking out on the platform, taking a million pictures/videos, and facetiming with my family, I then took the elevator up to a viewing platform out over the falls. This was really cool because you could get a lot closer to the main waterfall and see just how much water was pouring over it, and you could also see the winding river above where all of the water was coming from. If you looked in the opposite direction you could see the waterfalls as far as the eye can see that you had just walked past on the walking trail.
After taking a few last pictures I walked up to the bus stop and gift shop. During your time at the falls, likely near the beginning or end of your walk, you will likely walk past a coati. They are a cute animal that looks kind of like a mix between a raccoon and a lemur, maybe? Anyways, they are very cute but will scratch so definitely don't try and touch them! This area is up at the top by the river, but what I found cool was if you looked really hard across the river, you could see tourists visiting the falls on the Argentina side! I walked around this area for a bit, bought a few souvenirs, and then boarded the bus back to the main entrance.
I was able to spend a full three hours at the falls, which felt like enough time to fully see the Brazilian side, so I was very glad that I chose it over Argentina. However, I would love to come back to Iguazu from the Argentina side in the future! After an absolutely exhausting day, I headed back to my hotel and ordered a pizza there, before going to sleep very quickly. I'm excited for tomorrow, though, as I'm headed to Rio to see the famous Christ the Redeemer statue before I fly back to the US!
31 countries down, 165 to go.

Sarkar controversy: Makers concede to govt pressure; revised version of film to be screened from today
The battle between AIADMK and Vijay's Sarkar film is currently the most hotly discussed political topic in Tamil Nadu. On Thursday, a cadre of AIADMK took to the streets vandalising posters and cutouts placed outside theatres screening the film. They was incensed over the depiction of their late leader Jayalalithaa and her welfare schemes in the film.
The Sarkar controversy now seems to have overshadowed the second year of demonetisation. Even as Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu gears up to meet DMK strongman MK Stalin today (9 November) in Chennai in order to strengthen the mahagathbandhan, all eyes remain on Murugadoss' next move. Various Tamil Nadu government ministers have been making anti–Vijay statements. The bone of their contention is that their late leader former Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa and her welfare scheme have been tarnished by Sarkar.
Amid the raging controversy, Tamil Nadu Fisheries Minister Jayakumar asked: "Is Komalavalli the only name you could think of to name the villie (antagonist) of the film? Such films exist only because Amma (Jayalalithaa) is no more." Shortly after the statement, social media and television channels were flooded with videos of Vijay's appeal to the Jayalalithaa government during the Thalaivaa controversy.
The theatre owners in Tamil Nadu do not want to get into the crossfire between the state government and Vijay because they fear for their property. The famous Sathyam Cinemas had petrol bombs thrown at it at the time of Vijay's Kaththi controversy. This time, Sathyam and many other screens have removed banners and cutouts which are usually kept outside the screens. VV Rajan Chellappa, the powerful AIADMK MLA from Madurai warned: "If these scenes aren't removed, we will ensure that all theatres in TN are shut down."
Fearing a backlash, Tiruppur Subramaniam of the powerful Tamil Nadu Theatre Owners Association said: "Whenever there have been skirmishes between actors and political parties in the state, it has been the cinema theatres playing the particular actors films have bore the brunt of the attack. It is not good for our business as theatres attract large number of families and they will keep away (if protests continue). In case of Sarkar, we have told Sun Pictures, the producers, who have agreed to remove the so-called objectionable scenes."
The scenes in question have been removed and the revised content will be screened in cinemas starting today at noon (9 November).
Meanwhile, Sarkar took a phenomenal opening collecting approximately Rs 102 crores in two days, worldwide. But on Thursday, the morning and afternoon shows showed a natural slump, as both were working days. But by evening, with the raging controversy fuelled further by the AIADMK party members and ministers, the collections picked up for the evening and night shows. In three days (6-8 November), the film has grossed a record Rs 6.03 crore. Abirami Ramanathan, the Chennai city distributor of Sarkar, said: "The film has taken one of the biggest ever opening for any film and most of the screens are sold out over the weekend."
The controversies surrounding Sarkar have stirred up more curiosity around the film, and collections have picked up outside of Tamil Nadu too. It looks like the film will cross Rs 200 crore by the end of its first week worldwide, as the controversy surrounding it refuses to die down.

Although Michigan was a blast, I am so happy to be home! I can't believe we went home to our very own house after vacation! So surreal! We are almost 100% moved in. We finally got our table, chairs, patio furniture, washer and dryer, and desk yesterday. The last item of furniture we need to move is a little twin bed for the guest bedroom and we are planning on getting that this weekend. I am so ready to be done moving!
It was nice to take a break from #adulting for a long weekend. Whenever I go on vacation, I love to pack comfortable clothes. Everything I wore was extremely comfy. Most of the time I was just wearing loose shorts and a bikini top.
Everything I wore was very affordable! Most of the items were from Kohl's. If you couldn't tell, that is my go-to store, haha! I am still in shock over how cheap my new two-piece swimsuit was! Under $20 for the cutest swimmy?? Can't beat that!
With Love,
Quiet Girl

Pastor :: Michael Airgood
Michael grew up in Kane, PA and was active in Kane First UMC for all of his formative years. "My mother was the church organist, so I was there every time the doors were open," he says. His older sister is a physician assistant and his brother-in-law is a professional monster truck driver for the Raminator team. Michael has two nephews, Hemi Tucker and Warn Jack, and although he has many titles, Uncle is his favorite.
Michael has served as a missionary on many short-term ventures in many different countries. He served as a Global Ministries Individual Volunteer in South Korea, Mongolia, and Ukraine. He was a standard support missionary serving in Lviv, Ukraine for years. He worked in the area of new church development and then served as interim-director of an inter-confessional student ministry before turning the ministry over to local leadership. He is abundantly proud of the young people from that ministry and their maturity in faith and trust in God's Holy Spirit. "It was the great joy of my life to serve with those students – even though the situations we faced were very challenging, they taught me to constantly trust and obey," says Michael.
Michael taught at Ivan Franko National University in the Translation Studies department and is a translator of Ukrainian poetry into English.
He loves the United Methodist church and longs for the day when we can honestly live out our vision of Open Hearts, Open Minds, Open Doors.
