- Complete and total miss....cashmom1Dined on 6/15/2014Father's Day breakfast meal with 2 out of town guests. We were the first people in the restaurant that morning and had to wait 15 mins to order our food. Throughout the meal empty coffee cups sat on the table. Everyone's food came out cold. My Sister-in-law ordered Chilaquiles; it was basically a pile of tortilla chips with a few (cold) black beans dropped on top, a spoonful of salsa, and topped with a poached egg. This was sent back after one bite. Cream cheese stuffed French toast was a thick layer of cold cream cheese between 2 pieces of burnt (but cold) bread, the inside of the bread was not battered it was just plain bread with cream cheese spread on it. Bacon with pecans and brown sugar was totally limp and had zero flavor.
- GREAT LOCAL RESTAURANT!seattlemomDined on 6/14/2014Great menu and great staff! If you become a regular here, you are treated SO WELL! The food is always great and reasonably priced!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food, nice people.turner56Dined on 6/7/2014Very nice hostess staff, we were late for our reservation due to heavy traffic, they immediatly still sat us. Food was good, service was great. This is my 3rd time eating there.Special Features:
- Good food and friendly staffcsgrhgDined on 6/7/2014Highly recommend the flatbread appetizer and the eggplant fries. Delicious.
- Sustainable ingredients; delicious!LeighboiseDined on 6/5/2014I ate here once with my mom last August, and just this month with my son and his girlfriend. Everyone loved the food and the service.Special Features:
- The following 116 reviews are from the 50 North reviews archive.
- Always GoodheidijDined on 5/31/201450 North is one of our go-to places for a relaxed brunch/lunch with friends. The menu has a nice variety and the cocktails are excellent. The only reason I didn't rate them as outstanding is that my fish tacos were a little bland and the food seemed to take a while to come out. Our waiter was wonderful and very attentive and the complementary slice of black bottom banana cream pie for my friend's birthday was perfect.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hit or MissSeaLassDined on 5/18/2014This place is in my neighborhood and has a good location, parking, and ambiance. And consistently good waitstaff. The food, however, is very hit and miss. Some of the dishes are amazing and keep bringing me back. The filbert-coated goat cheese appetizer is done perfectly. The faro salad with mint dressing in its various seasonal versions is one of the best salads in town. But the main entrees are often clear misses. Last night's fish and chips was a crime -- the fish was fresh (good), but the preparation was undercooked (center was raw and cold), the favor was non-existent, and the coating (a tempura batter) never made it to the fish. And it was served with cold, soggy fries. Yuck. Son's lamb burger, however, was great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- jillDined on 5/2/2014The food was disappointing, and the ambiance marginal. Not worth a return visit.
- out0townerDined on 5/1/2014Fabulous food, wonderful presentations, uncommonly great service--all around great experience!Special Features:
- Terrific!AllisonSDined on 4/29/2014I was so impressed by everything about this restaurant. The service was wonderful, the atmosphere was refreshing, and it was great to have the option of being outside on a sunny day. The food was amazing...they have new entree's every week so there is always something new to try. Everything was just perfect and we will definitely be back.Special Features:
- Nice find!luvtoeatDined on 4/23/2014This is a nice restaurant if you want to get a bit away from the University Village scene. We had a good dinner at a reasonable price. We would definitely go back.Special Features:
- Disappointed experienceFoodthought7Dined on 4/20/2014We have been wanting to try this place for some time now. Finally went and truly disappointed. Fries are dried and over cooked (didn't know you can make bad fries). Food had no flavor, service was slow for how busy the restaurant was. Not worth spending the kind of money for the food you get. We will never go back.
- Easter BrunchrockawaygalDined on 4/20/2014We had an outstanding Easter brunch at 50 North - served buffet style. The food was excellent and there were many choices. They seemed a bit frazzled when we arrived at 1p, having had to wash dishes and glasses and cups in order to serve the next wave of people, but they recovered quickly and all went well after that.Special Features:
- Worth ReturninglucyskyDined on 4/20/2014The atmosphere in this restaurant is relaxed but service is attentive. J went for brunch and there was a good selection of the usual brunch fare. I thought everything at the steam tables was at the appropriate temperature, but my dining companion found the small potatoes almost, but not quite, cold. Everything was tasty and, as usual, I ate too much! I would go back again. An added bonus is the free, garage parking immediately adjacent to the restaurant.Special Features:
- Disappointing for Easter brunchCC48Dined on 4/20/2014We ended up at 50 North because last minute logistics prevented our crossing to Vashon to enjoy Easter brunch at (what I understand is) their sister restaurant, The Hardware Store. Service was good; unfortunately, the ambiance was more appropriate for a lunch crowd or after work drinks, and although the food was acceptably good, there was not a single item to write home about. $28 per person is not by any means extravagant for a buffet brunch, but in terms of value, unless you're someone for whom "all you can eat" is the prime concern and points for creativity or standout flavor are secondary, this will not satisfy. In a city where well-priced inspiring food is a stone's throw from practically anywhere, hugely disappointing.
- Easter brunchAnAdventureInFoodDined on 4/20/2014We went here for Easter brunch 2013 and were very impressed. This year however did not. Everything was bit on the greaser side. The sausage and bacon were delicious. The home fries were cold. The eggs were tender and fluffy. I loved the topping bar. The doughnut holes were so greasy I couldn't eat them. The pasta salad was simple but good. The ceasar salad was good but soggy. Overall, we decided to look for another brunch place next year.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Easter Brunchsbc123Dined on 4/20/2014We got there a bit early and the front staff were super accommodating and all the staff were very friendly and attentive. The smells were wonderful and enticing (yes, I ate more than I should have)! The choices were wide, from basic pancakes with fun fresh fruit & whipped toppings to wonderfully prepared salmon. A nice choice and close to U Village and the UW campus. We will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Off day?LuvNomNomVIPDined on 4/19/2014My husband and I have been here a handful of times and the food was delicious. My husband ordered the eggs benedict and I ordered the Fifty scramble. He enjoyed his as well as I liked mine. However the 1st cappuccino my husband ordered might as well had been a drip coffee the second one the same but with a little more foam. My biscuit seemed like it was a day old; hard and dry. But the service was very good. Noah was attentive and gave us service with a smile after we complained about the cappuccino.Special Features:
- Awesome!OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 4/18/2014Everything about this restaurant is wonderful. Delicious food made from fresh ingredients, excellent service, great atmosphere. I will definitely come here again!Special Features:
- A Treasure in U VillageAllisonSDined on 4/18/2014I was so impressed by the attention to detail in every aspect - the food was delicious and presented elegantly, the restaurant was chic and incredibly clean, and the servers were friendly and well-trained. There was free parking and it was just across from the University Village. This is our new home away from home - the whole family was happy!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Gluten-free treatsOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 4/4/2014Much to like, specially the gluten-free offerings. Found some gluten-free donuts there, best ever.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- YUMMY!seattlemomDined on 3/30/2014LOVE THIS RESTAURANT!! Great food and great wait staff! Super good brunches on Sunday mornings, too!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Brunch visitBruncherDined on 3/30/2014This is a wonderful place to get some brunch. Great bloody mary (and virgin mary, too. Blood orange Mimosa, good selection of tasty egg dishes and the usual other ones, too. Quiet enough to talk to each other!Special Features:
- 50 North is consistently good!ColbyVVIPDined on 3/23/2014Our family has wheat allergies, so we have to be picky about where we go. The great thing about 50 North is that they're consistently good and willing to work with you. We go regularly for the great burgers and fish-n-chips. The chowder is awesome and the wine menu a number of go-to favorites. You can't go wrong!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hidden gem!BearheaderDined on 3/23/2014We have never had trouble getting in and we always wonder why. The food and service have been fantastic every time we have been. Don't quite understand why they aren't always packed.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ok but not memorableEmmanuelVIPDined on 3/22/2014Food was average. I just had a clam chowder, which was average. The wine list was short, but my wine was good. Service was dreadfully slow.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just OkOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 3/15/2014Ingrediants were tasty, but nothing was really a stand out.Special Features:

- The food made me want to goShannaDined on 2/23/2014The food made me want to go back, the service could be improvedSpecial Features:
- Enjoyed!SparkyDined on 2/20/2014Thursday nights should be crowded in restaurants but 50 North was pretty empty. Don't know why. Maybe too much competition or the location. Hope it makes it because the food is decent and it's comfortable. Some restaurants are so hard to talk in but not this one. Fish tacos were a bit messy, maybe a bigger tortilla. Good variety of food and beer.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- I always enjoy the quality63mikeDined on 2/18/2014I always enjoy the quality of ingredients and the variety of food offered. It seems that all the greens and vegetables are extra fresh and vibrant! The chicken added to the arugula/beet salad was perfectly grilled.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice and quiet, not very busyOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 2/16/2014Nice and quiet, not very busy at 10 a.m. on a Sunday. Got busier as we stayed. Food was good, potatoes were a bit undercooked. Service was very friendly and helpful. Everyone at the table enjoyed their meal. Nice pleasant place to meet for brunch, close to university so handy for students to meet their parents.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Valentines dinner was good,JayblueDined on 2/14/2014Valentines dinner was good, but not worth $50 per person.Special Features:
- Perfect Night!happydinerDined on 2/14/2014We went to 50N for Valentines Day, they had a fixed menus which was different but fun. There was great live music and the food was AMAZING. My husband had the steak, it was so tender and great flavor. I had the Cod and it too was flavorful and perfectly cooked. The service was excellent and very friendly. Perfect evening!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Business DinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 2/12/2014I had a business dinner, the service was excellent and as requested we were seated where we could talk. Liked the grub and the draft selection. Definitely a restaurant I would consider in the future.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- 50 north burgerAbbyDined on 2/8/2014Their specialty 50 north burger is one of the best burgers I've ever had. The apple pie a la mode was also delicious, it tasted home made.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Meh1mermaidDined on 1/30/2014This is a very mediocre restaurant. Portions were small it is not a good value. I thought the food was very bland and I would not go there again.Special Features:
- Mixed FeelingsSeattliteDined on 1/3/2014The food was very good, but call me a sensitive first-timer celebrating a 50-something birthday, but the waiter mentioned that the restaurant for some reason attracted an older clientele, and they played 70s pop Muzak all evening. I don't mind my age or a visit thru the way-back machine once in a while, but I look forward and like fresh music and experiences. Will go again as the food was refreshing and healthy, or to simply see if the soundtrack has changed!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Service was slow. ReceivingOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 12/14/2013Service was slow. Receiving food was even slower -- we were there way longer than desired.Special Features:
- Poor experience all around.FirstishfridaysDined on 12/13/2013Poor experience all around. Service was not good - after being ignored for 30 minutes, we had to flag down a busser to order more drinks. Food was bland, except the spicy chicken sandwich which was overseasoned. Live singing performer was talented, but volume was way too loud.

As music continues to move further and further toward the outer limits of extremity, and bands struggle to one-up the musical and lyrical brutality Cannibal Corpse spawned, there's a neat little twist in the strain of evolution. Good old fashioned occult rock and roll is making a comeback. Largely carried on the shoulders of the massively popular (for the style) Ghost, bands are starting to rediscover that leaving more to the imagination can be the best course of action.
I come to you this fine morning from the waiting lounge of Porter airlines in sunny Newark New Jersey. I'll be honest up until about a week ago I had no idea Porter airlines existed but now I'm hooked. Free coffee, food and wifi in the airport? I've been told the later flights have free booze. How is that possible? I plan on taking them every time I fly to Canada. Yes I never plan on going to Canada again after today but that doesn't make any of this less exciting.
Joan Allen seems like an all around nice gal. I can't say I remember one movie she's been in or actually recognize her face or name but still I think she's got a winning personality. And if that doesn't sell you on the fact that she's been added to the cast of the big screen adaptation of Stephan King's "A Good Marriage" I'm not sure what will. The story follows a wife who discovers her husband has been hiding an awful secret for many years. What's my awful secret you ask? I love those little country stores that sell all kinds of jams, jellies and knick knacks. There, it's finally out there.
If you love Michael Bay and James Wong, and I mean really love them like you want to be with them, then you're going to be super excited about the new supernatural cop drama the two are working on for A&E titled "Occult". The show follows two investigators who find themselves a part of a new task force that focuses on the occult. Just to be clear I don't mean you love them like brothers I mean you love them like you want to kidnap them and hold them hostage.
I don't know what it is about Neil Jordan but the guy has a name that makes me want to throw him off a cliff. I mean I like his movies and all I just can't stomach the name. Neil.... JORDAN. But I will get past it and watch "Byzantium", a new film of his that was just picked up by IFC. The film follows two girls who find themselves on the run when they encounter a 200 year old vampire. To be clear I'm going to watch the movie because apparently they work in a brothel for a while and the chance of nudity trumps all name hate.
Everyone's favorite uber-star Nic Cage is apparently in talks to take the lead in a new film titled "I Am Wrath". In the film Cage would play a husband who must take the law into his own hands when he finds the people investigating the murder of his wife are not such nice fellas. I assume they're fellas cause you know you never see a real prick female cop in movies. I don't know if that's sexist or not. I think it might be.
Ah young love. It makes you do crazy things. Taking off your boyfriend's prosthetic leg and beating him with it is not the first crazy thing that comes to mind usually but what do I know. I've never lived in Florida.
Biting off someone's nose during an argument is a pretty extreme form of lashing out but doing THAT to your sister? That's just bad family values.
CC's back, Joe's confused, and we hope you enjoy the new sound!
A movie that has the crew conflicted.

Comments about Race Face Turbine 2X10 Crankset OE:
Although the craftsmanship and quality of this product are top notch I didnt do enough research and ended up with a crankset that wont go lower than a 26t inner chainring. The 80mm BCD REALLY limits your chainring choices and if you need a granny gear you are hosed. Should have gone with a traditional crank with a 64mm BCD so I could have gone to a 22 or 24 inner ring.

Great cranks, replaced OEM on my Cannondale Rush. Went in with no problems, but I do have the right tools. Used it a couple of times only, maybe 4 hours total, nothing came loose and it works as advertised. My bike dropped 1 pound also! Don't know about durability yet.

We offered $33 bucks (for Yahoo) and it's $11 today. It's clear Yahoo didn't want to sell. They probably still think it's worth more than $33 a share.
I still think it makes sense for their shareholders and ours.
That evening, Carl Icahn, who long pushed for the deal, agreed with Ballmer:
I will say and I continue to say that sooner or later there's got to be a deal with Microsoft and Yahoo of some type. I really believe that very strongly.
Meanwhile, as CNET reports, Yahoo's shares jumped at the prospect.
But Microsoft corporate was quick to tell Yahoo, "Tough cookies." Well, more accurately, they said, "Microsoft has no interest in acquiring Yahoo!; there are no discussions between the companies."
What do you think—doth Microsoft protest too much?

The Gold Standard
Security at nuclear power plants is the gold standard across all industries. Nuclear plants are among the most secure facilities in the world, meeting stringent security requirements set forth by the NRC.
Callaway Energy Center's security features include:
Well-trained and well-armed security officers on site 24/7.
Physical barriers and illuminated detection zones.
Surveillance and patrols of the perimeter.
Intrusion-detection aids, including detection fields and closed-circuit television systems.
Robust buildings protect the reactor and related facilities, as well as protect the facility against potential terrorist penetration.
Security is routinely tested in drills and exercises. In addition, the NRC requires "force-on-force" exercises at each plant, using highly-trained paramilitary personnel, at least once every three years.
The U.S. military also is on call to respond to a threat, if necessary.

Ease of Use
I have Roscea & this has helped extremely, I can actually touch my face. However I have no desire for sex, my clitoris actually feels bruised. I don't understand this. Please don't show this on the web. My Dr says this is normal, I want to go off of it cause of that but I don't want my face to look so horrible again. I don't know what else to do.

Ease of Use
I have been taking this med for almost a year. My acne has decreased dramatically although I get a couple of pimples at that time of the month. I can't think of any side effects I've experienced. I highly recommend it, but keep in mind all drugs work differently on everyone so listen to your body if you have any weird side effects

Reviewer: Ellen, 35-44 Female on Treatment for 5 to less than 10 years (Patient)
Ease of Use
For treatment of acne, I have been using a 100mg dose for 7 years. No problem side effects at all. Realize that while the drug does increase urination, you can't skimp on water intake as a way to avoid this! The oil production on my skin is dramatically decreased therefore I my breakouts (mild and cystic) have stopped. I am definitely keeping spiro as part of my anti-acne program.

'Prime Picks'
Handicapping with Jeff Siegel
Sunday's nine-race card begins with a first post of 1 p.m. There are several attractive wagering opportunities.
Trainer Ron Ellis is exceptional with the first-off-the-claim angle that's the main reason #7 Nueva Fortuna should be a rolling exotic single. Lightly-raced and drawn comfortably outside, she's especially fond of this main track and has the proper style for this extended sprint distance. If you can get close to her morning line odds of 5/2, take it.
We'll double the second race, a maiden claiming miler for juvenile fillies. #9 Midnight Candy surfaces for a tag for the first time and has speed figures that are more than good enough, so she's the logical top pick. However, at 6/5 on the morning, she doesn't offer much in the way of value. #8 Yes Yes Baroness chased much tougher sprinting in her debut, continues to train like she has some ability and is very likely much better than her first race indicates. Baze stays aboard. Both should be included in rolling exotic play.
A fairly good group of entry-level sprinters occupy the third race. #3 Cherubin gets back to conventional dirt, and we suspect he'll return to his best form. Freshened since late July and showing a considerable amount of spark in recent drills, the D'Amato-trained colt is good enough to win with his best effort. #6 Kristo had no chance when an overmatched runner-up to Masochistic in a highly-rated race at Del Mar but this group should be within his range, and he's another with a good record over the Santa Anita main track. He's a fit on figures and should draft into an ideal pace-prompting position. We'll give Cherubin a slight edge but use both in our rolling exotics.
The fourth race is a straight maiden turf miler; it's a below par field for the level and an ideal spot for the once-started Mr. Excavator to earn his diploma. Fourth but beaten less than a length in a similar event at Del Mar, the Gaines-trained colt will benefit greatly from the outing and should produce a major forward move today. We like him on top but we'll also toss in#4 Silver Torch, unproven on turf but runner-up in his last pair with strong numbers.
The fifth race is a restricted (nw-3) $16,000 sprint; we'll double the race without a great deal of conviction and if you prefer to spread, go right ahead. #4 Zippingaroundtwon has won over this track in the past, ran well when third in a similar spot at Del Mar last time out and continues to hold his form in the morning. #3 Cuzan shows up for a tag for the first time and though he's never been keen on winning (two wins, nine seconds) he does have several back numbers that would put him strongly in the fray.
#2 Daddy's Duo gets a nice spot in the sixth race, a maiden claiming sprint for juvenile fillies. The daughter of Scat Daddy drops to her lowest level ever, has better than par speed figures, and very little to beat. The main concern – that this represents her third consecutive class drop (despite having finished second last time) – makes her a bit suspicious so this hardly qualifies as a prime play, but if she doesn't win, we're not really sure who will. Let's make her a default rolling exotic single and not get too involved in the other pools.
#1 Big John B has been awesome in winning his last three starts while moving up to the top of the class in the older turf handicap division on the West Coast. We're fully expecting the veteran gelding to extend his streak to four, though at 8/5 on the morning line (and likely to go lower at post time) there really isn't much we can do with him. He's a logical short priced rolling exotic single.
The eighth race is a fairly strong sprint for juvenile fillies and a couple of promising first-timers catch the eye. #5 Ol' Fashion Gal has done good work in the morning for Casse and Talamo has gotten to know her; the daughter of Sky Mesa looks fit and ready for a big effort and offers considerable value at 6-1 on the morning line. #1 Olivia's Greatdane is another newcomer with an impressive work tab; the Baffert-trained filly must overcome the rail but she's trained well enough to earn "must use" status in rolling exotic play. The best of the known element is #8 Moons Over Me, a closing third in her debut for Cassidy without being knocked about and very likely to benefit considerably from the experience. Smith rides her back and the extra half furlong will compliment her style. We'll use all three in our rolling exotics while preferring Ol' Fashion Gal on top.
The nightcap is a deep first-level turf miler for sophomore fillies and requires a bit of a spread. #13 Grazenette gets the worst of the draw but if she can somehow negotiate a trip she can fit with these based on recent speed figures. She's also a proven winner over this course and Talamo fits her nicely. #7 Royal Temptress was no factor sprinting on the main track in her local debut seems sure to improve a bunch today while catching much more favorable conditions. Smith rides her back for Puype. #6 Charlie's Angel makes her U.S. debut for Hollendorfer and her French form was strong, though much of it came over very soft ground. She's worth tossing in as "stranger danger."

Physics Teacher,
This conversation is closed.
A universal definition of life.
Any entity that has the ability to store and exchange information autonomously.
Perhaps as we move through the next millenium we will need a definition of life that is this general. It may be needed to classify artificial life or to classify alien life. We may find life forms so different to ourselves that the only recognisable feature is information management. It might also help us to identify the point at which a person is no longer alive.

Sep 3 2012: ...
This was addressed by my high school biology teacher. It was something like :
1. metabolism
2. reproduction (to a highly self-same form)
The question was then raised: is FIRE alive? it breathes (conducts metabolism) and reproduces. But it doesn't reproduce to a highly self-same form; so fire is not alive, but biological organisms are. This touches on your "store and exchange information" point.
Viruses are also not alive, because they don't conduct metabolism.
Sep 3 2012: I find it very interesting that several people in this conversation have quite categorically stated that viruses are not alive and they have all been US citizens. In AUS the question is considered very much unanswered. We are taught that the jury is out on viruses from junior high level of science. It's an interesting contrast between two very similar cultures.
Sep 3 2012: ...
Our scientists have much different notions of life, in that case.
Viruses are much simpler than bacteria; and completely inert until they injecting RNA into a cell. They have no independent means of reproduction. Some of them are not even *contiguous* (e.g. the Hepatitis B virus comes in 2 pieces).
Biologists can actually build some viruses in a lab from scratch. That's not remotely true for a cell (though Craig Venter has bootstrapped the DNA of a cell).
If you're going to categorize a virus as life, you might as well define a prion as life. A prion is just a single (mis-shaped) protein.
Sep 5 2012: I don't think that's well-defined in the PAST (as life was developing) ; but today it's fairly well defined ... in the sense that there are zero (or very few) ambiguous cases today.
At the point that you have metabolism (energy consumption) and self-same reproduction, I would say that's life.
... The future might bring new ambiguous cases, if technology creates a reproducing robot (not just self-assembling, but actually self-reproducing from raw materials in the environment).

Seventeen Magazine's Body Peace Treaty →
On April 19, 14-year-old Julia Bluhm started a petition on Change.org asking Seventeen magazine to print one unaltered photo in its magazine each month.
By Tuesday morning, the petition had attracted 84,168 signatures. And Ms. Bluhm reacted enthusiastically to news of the magazine's policy statement.
"Seventeen listened!" Ms. Bluhm wrote on her petition page, under the headline "How We Won." "They're saying they won't use Photoshop to digitally alter their models! This is a huge victory, and I'm so unbelievably happy."
Editor-in-chief Ann Shoket, along with the entire magazine staff signed an eight-point pact to never change the body or face shapes of any of its girls and only include images of "real girls and models who are healthy," and also make photoshoots transparent by posting them on Tumblr.
FJP: Well done, Julia Bluhm. And well done, Seventeen. We especially like the effort to be transparent.

As a company with a history stretching back hundreds of years, Fuller's is an integral part of the communities in which it operates. Brewing has taken place on the brewery site in Chiswick, West London, since at least the 17th century and some of our pubs have been in the company's ownership for over 150 years. Our distribution centre in Horndean, Hampshire, is a stone's throw from the site of the old Gales brewery, retaining strong links with the area, including retaining valuable local employment.
We understand that while we are a business, it is important that we maintain a connection and dialogue with the people we share our space with and on whom our activities have an impact. We try to take an active role in those communities in a number of ways, from supporting charities and organisations in the immediate vicinity of the brewery with financial support, to donating beer for the Wayfarers Dole at the Hospital of St Cross in Winchester.
Locally to our Brewery, we support organisations such as Chiswick House and Gardens, the Chiswick Pier Trust and St Mary's Convent & Nursing Home. We also sponsor the Christmas Lights on Chiswick High Road, the annual open-air opera at Chiswick House and a 10-mile running race along the river, the Thames Towpath Ten. We provide direct financial contributions to numerous charities including Help for Heroes and The Poppy Appeal amongst others and we have helped raise over £1m for Cancer Research UK through our support for the London Pride Walk and Fun Run, which has been running annually since 1996.
For every barrel sold of Gales Seafarers Ale we make a donation of £5 to Seafarers UK. Seafarers UK provides grants to other charities that help our nation's seafarers and ex-seafarers. Since its launch in 2009, Seafarers Ale has really caught the imagination of our customers, and as of March 2011 the beer had raised in excess of £35,000 for the charity.
We also provide over £100,000 worth of products each year for use as prizes at numerous charity events, including those at our pubs. We encourage our pubs to become the centre of their communities and the brewery supports their work in sponsoring local events with donations and assistance with marketing and promotions. Our free trade teams spread this support outside our tied estate by sponsoring many of the sporting and local interest clubs in their geographical areas, which extend beyond our traditional boundaries. In addition, we offer staff the opportunity to donate money to charities via payroll with the Give As You Earn scheme.

Mayor Challenges Golfers to Raise Funds for Families of Soldiers Wounded or Killed in Action
On Saturday, September 1, customers at Louisville's nine Metro Parks golf courses can spend money on more than a round of golf – they can support families of soldiers who have been wounded or killed in the line of duty, Mayor Jerry Abramson and Metro Councilwoman Madonna Flood (D-24) announced today.
Metro Parks is participating in the nation's first Patriot Golf Day, a joint initiative of The PGA of America and the United States Golf Association. On September 1, Metro Parks and the PGA Professionals who staff each golf course will ask customers to contribute an extra $1 per round of golf. All donations will be sent to Wounded Warriors, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that provides support to families of those who have been wounded, injured or killed during combat operations.
"Having a son who was injured in the line of duty, and knowing the difficulties that wounded soldiers and their families face when they return home, I can say first-hand how important this support can be," said Flood, whose son – Sgt. Brandon Sword – was injured in Iraq earlier this year. "I would ask everyone to donate to this worthy cause, at $1, or at whatever level you can afford. I can't tell you how helpful it was to have the support of organizations like this one when our family needed it."
Patriot Golf Day is spearheaded by PGA Professional Dan Rooney of Stillwater, Okla. Rooney, an F-16 pilot in the 125th Fighter Squadron of the Oklahoma Air National Guard, has logged two tours of duty to Iraq, and following his most recent tour he began to think of ways he could stay involved in the war effort.
For more information about Patriot Golf Day, visit www.PlayGolfAmerica.com. Citizens who won't be able to visit a golf course on September 1 can make an online contribution by visiting this web site. For more information about Wounded Warriors, Inc., visit www.woundedwarriors.org.
Metro Parks golf courses are open from daylight to dark seven days a week, and each course has a fully stocked pro shop. Private lessons are available from a PGA Professional at each clubhouse. Metro Parks operates 9-hole golf courses in Cherokee Park and Crescent Hill Park, along with Waverly Park's Bobby Nichols Golf Course. There are 18-hole courses in Iroquois Park, Long Run Park, Seneca Park, Shawnee Park, Sun Valley Park and Charlie Vettiner Park. For more information, call (502) 456-8134.

Weather conditions are favorable for several different ear rots of corn in Indiana and other parts of the Midwest this year. As harvest begins, it is important to identify fields that may have ear rots to ensure timely harvest and proper storage of moldy grain. There are several economically important ear rots to watch for, including Diplodia ear rot, Gibberella ear rot, Fusarium ear rot, and Aspergillus ear rot. A different fungus causes each of these rots, and the environmental conditions at and just after silking influence which ear rot may be problematic in a given year. Additionally, some of these fungi are able to produce mycotoxins as a byproduct of the infection process. Mycotoxins can be toxic to humans and livestock, and are carefully regulated in food and feed. Proper identification of ear rots is key for managing affected grain.
Aspergillus ear rot is caused by the fungus Aspergillus flavus, and is one of the most concerning ear rots due to its associated mycotoxin, aflatoxin. This fungus infects during hot, dry weather after pollination occurs, and was particularly problematic in 2012. Drought stressed areas are most affected by the disease. Aspergillus ear rot is typically identified by an olive green, dusty mold that is often at the tip of the ear, but can be scattered on kernels throughout the ear. Symptoms usually appear first in fields with dry soils or other issues, such as nutrient deficiencies, or insect damage. The mycotoxin aflatoxin is a potent carcinogen, and is regulated in feed and silage. FDA has established action thresholds for various end uses of grain. Aflatoxins are of concern to dairy producers in particular because the FDA regulations require aflatoxin residues in milk to be less than 0.5 ppb. To prevent the carry over of aflatoxins into milk, silage and other feed components should not contain greater than 20 parts per billion (ppb) aflatoxin.
Diplodia ear rot is caused by the fungus Stenocarpella maydis, and is very common in cornfields across the Corn Belt. This fungus survives in residue and infects plants approximately two weeks after pollination. Humid weather and rains prior to and after pollination will favor disease development. Diplodia ear rot is identified by white fungal growth on the cob, often forming a mat of fungus across the ear. Infected kernels may also be brown-gray in appearance. Small, black fungal structures called pycnidia may form on the kernels or the cob. The fungus is reported to produce a mycotoxin called diplodiatoxin in South America and South Africa, however, no reports of toxic effects of grain on livestock or humans due to Diplodia ear rot have been reported in the United States. Grain dockage may still occur, however, due to moldy grain.
Fusarium ear rot is primarily caused by the fungus Fusarium verticilliodes. This fungus infects corn after pollination, and often overlaps with Aspergillus ear rot since infection is favored by warmer temperatures. Fusarium-infected ears may have white fungal growth on the cob, or symptoms may appear as discolored kernels scattered throughout a cob or associated with insect feeding. Visible fungal growth may not be obvious on the cob, but a white "starburst" pattern in kernels can sometimes be observed on ears infected by this fungus. The mycotoxin fumonisin is associated with Fusarium ear rot.
Gibberella ear rot, caused by the fungus Gibberella zeae, is common during cool, rainy years. The fungus infects during early silking and pollination, and is favored by cooler temperatures than the previously described ear rots. This fungus produces a fungal mat on the ear, similar to Diplodia ear rot, but often with a pink or reddish color to the mold. Gibberella zeae produces the mycotoxin deoxynivalenol (DON), commonly referred to as vomitoxin. This mycotoxin can be extremely harmful to swine, and is carefully regulated according to the FDA action levels.

My friend, Annabel Park, an activist and documentary film maker, tried to begin a dialog on the gun control debate after the mass shootings in Connecticut, but found that the divisions were so deep on this issue, that her faith in dialogue and storytelling was tested.
With her experience with interviewing people for her documentaries, Annabel has been on the front line of the hyper-partisan debates in America. She is now working a documentary called, 'Story of America: A Nation Divided'.
Annabel believes in the transformative power of dialog and storytelling, as I do, because just spouting opinions at those that disagree with you will not achieve good results. It requires listening.
If you listen to the other side's stories while relating some of your own, the conversation has more of a chance to become civil and dialog may occur. There are some that will never be reached though. Their stance on this issue is so culturally ingrained in their world outlook that advocating for any changes will always be a non-starter.
However, not everyone believes as strongly as they do, and are not as fixed in their views on the second amendment that listening to the stories of other people can be attempted. Many people really do live in different cultural worlds, but within each of those worlds, there are people like me that agree with Annabel's thoughts on common sense gun measures, even though they believe everyone has the right to own a gun for protection and hunting.
I have been seeking others that believe in the 2nd Amendment but also believe changes need to be made for gun control, because they are the key in helping to diffuse the hostility of the debate. They are fluent in the cultural and religious traditions and can better verbalize the concerns and trepidation of the gun control advocates, as well as those of the gun rights advocates.
If the call becomes large enough for change, real progress may occur, if that call is heard from within each of the gun rights advocate's own communities.
After Annabel wrote a blog post advocating basic gun regulation to her pro-gun friends, a heated debate ensued, and in response, she wrote this essay:
Zombies, guns and confronting my biggest fear
- By Annabel Park · December 27, 2012
Dear Friends,
I have been reflecting a good deal on this past year and why my new project Story of America means so much to me.
It was a difficult year for many of us because, regardless of how you feel about the outcome of the 2012 election, the debates that we witnessed this year were a reminder that we are indeed very divided from each other.
As some of you know, I have deep faith in the transformative power of dialogue and storytelling. Even during the ugliest moments during the election, I maintained the faith that we can heal the divide in our country through dialogue.
We began filming Story of America in the first week of November and documented just how divided we were as voters even down to our experiences of voting. We created videos aboutBattleground Virginia and were featured in the Washington Post for our dramatic coverage of the 5-hour lines at polling stations in Prince William County.
After the Newtown massacre, I must confess, my faith in dialogue was tested. Two days after the shooting, I wrote a blog post, Replying to my pro-gun friends, addressing some popular pro-gun talking points and pointing out that we need sensible gun regulation. My basic point is that gun laws should be regarded as a public safety issue. With nearly 50k likes and over 650 comments, it generated a lot of discussion. Along with hundreds of people, I tried to reply to some of the angry comments on that page and in my inbox. I found it incredibly challenging to engage people in a constructive dialogue.
I get the self-defense argument, especially for those living in rural areas. I'm not someone calling for a ban on all guns — not at all. I'm aware that most gun owners are responsible. I personally know plenty of responsible gun owners.
What I don't get is the desire and need for military-style assault weapons. The argument that this kind of weapon is needed for defending oneself from home invaders and wild animals or hunting animals for food is not convincing to me. The fact that so many people desire and own these weapons makes me wonder if people approach ordinary life in America as warfare. Why do we need such powerful weapons? Are we in a war of some kind against one another and I didn't know it?
While trying to talk to people online about gun control after Newtown, I started to wonder if we just live in different worlds and we don't have enough in common for dialogue. I feared that my critics are living in the Walking Dead, the post-apocalyptic TV show about zombies, and I'm living in a Frank Capra movie. That is, we're not just divided, we live in such different realities that we cannot understand each other and feel alienated from each other.
I'm not saying that all pro-gun people live in this world. I worry that there is a subset of pro-gun advocates who do live in this world and those are the people who test my faith in dialogue.
This is my fear and this is what some people tried to tell me in the last three years since the rise of the Tea Party: the other side is full of crazy, evil, and horrible people. You can't reason with them. You can only beat them or eliminate them from the process. I had insisted that this is just not how American democracy works. We need many voices, a diversity of people freely expressing their opinions: E pluribus unum.
Last Friday, Eric Byler and I documented the protest outside the NRA press conference in Washington DC, their first one after Newtown. We captured NRA protesters shouting at pro-gun activists trying to disrupt their protest. I was confronted face-to-face with the specter of that existential chasm — it looked like the NRA protesters and the pro-gun activists were utterly alien and zombie-like to each other.
In fact, when I was interviewing Larry Ward, one of the pro-gun advocates arguing with the NRA protesters, he specifically asked what would happen to us if we declared a zombie-free zone. We'd get eaten by zombies. He started out speaking about zombies figuratively, but then compared people addicted to meth to zombies.
This is my fear about America in a nutshell: Are we feeling so alienated from one another that we see the other as zombie-like and worthless? That is, not deserving of compassion, a voice in the political process, or even life? And, is this alienation creeping into our legislative process? Everything from gun control to the budget, immigration laws, and Stand Your Ground laws?
And if that is the case, what are the ultimate consequences and the remedies?
I do accept the point of my pro-gun friends and perhaps the creators of the Walking Dead that to some extent that civilization (law and order) is more fragile than we'd like to believe it is and there are some truly awful and destructive people out there. I can readily imagine needing to defend myself from chaotic and violent forces in our society.
The problem is that the belief that civilization is breaking down can become a self-fulfilling prophesy. The less you trust and value civilization and the inherent worth of human beings, the more willing you will be to live outside it and see the people inside as weak, parasitic and worthless. This kind of alienation from our society just is destabilizing.
I believe we have a big choice to make right now and this is the bigger point that I think the creators of the Walking Dead are making: civilization is a choice not a given. In order to make that choice, we must think about some fundamental questions about our relationship to each other. Do we see value in each other as human beings? As fellow Americans? Do we want to reaffirm the Union? Do we choose to commit to the principles and the experiment that is America? Is so, what does that mean? Do we consent to the social contract? If so, what does that mean? And, how do we (re)commit to the social contract in a meaningful way?
Something interesting happened for me last Friday outside the NRA press conference that helped me answer some of those questions. Despite my fear that Larry Ward and Adam Kokesh (independent journalist who created Adam Vs the Man) lived in a different world, we talked.
After a few minutes of talking, they did not seem alien to me at all. I quickly realized that my initial assessment of them was fear-based and way off. I didn't agree with them, but I was able to have a civil and reasonable conversation with them. In engaging them on this polarizing topic, I thought it would be helpful if we can begin the conversation with the agreement that guns are already regulated so that discussion is not centered on IF it should be since it already is. Both Larry and Adam readily agreed that guns were already regulated. Now the question is, which regulations are actually helpful from the standpoint of public safety and acceptable from the standpoint of self-defense/gun rights of individuals? Surely, we can have a balance of those two. I do believe there was some progress made. What do you think? I'm curious to hear your opinion on these videos.
Beyond the issue of regulating guns, I realized that my anxiety about our alienation from each other, the Walking Dead problem, can be addressed by talking. Moreover, I think dialogue is itself a reaffirmation of the social contract. If we didn't care about that contract at all, we wouldn't be talking; we'd be shooting or eating each other. We would resort to violence much more often than communication. As it is, even though we're often uncivil and ineffective, we're still talking to each other. That says something. The more we talk to each other with respect (speaking our minds and listening), the less alienated we will be from each other, and the stronger our nation will be.
I know that's a lot of pressure to place on talking and dialogue. However, a sophisticated language is, after all, what distinguishes human beings from the rest of the animal kingdom.
It's tempting to think that the main problem with politics in America is extremism. I think it's a combination of extremism and the silent, browbeaten, apathetic, exhausted, cynical, disengaged and marginalized majority. That majority must now stand together with a roar to reset the course for America by dominating the national dialogue instead of allowing it to be controlled by the loudest and the most divisive few.
This has been a long explanation of why I'm putting my heart and soul into the Story of America. Thank you for listening.
I believe we are ready to have a dialogue about gun control. We must be, because the violence will continue and continue to the point where no one will care anymore when they learn about future mass shootings and the senseless deaths they cause. We are almost there now, but if the dialog can turn to common sense regulations and removing the fear that many have about their guns being taken away, constructive talks may finally begin.
Many staunch second amendment advocates have family and friends that are not as unyielding in their beliefs. They may agree that everyone has a right to own guns, but they also see the devastation caused by the mass shootings using high power weapons, high-capacity magazine clips and armor piercing ammunition.
For those that honestly want to find a solutions to this national debate, we need to seek these people out and begin a dialog. They are the key, because they are the only ones that can influence those that cannot be reached.

MILWAUKEE (WTAQ) - Rookie Mike Rogers won his third straight start Friday night with five-and-a-third impressive innings of work against Pittsburgh.
Bolstered by a four-run cushion after the 1st inning, Rogers held the Pirates to just one run and the Brewers went on to take a 9-3 win.
Pittsburgh stayed a half-game behind the equally-struggling St. Louis Cardinals in the battle for the second National League wild card slot.
A two-run single by Aramis Ramirez, followed soon after by Corey Hart's two-run homer got the Brewers off to a strong start. The Brewers scored a run on a wild pitch in the fourth inning, then crossed the plate four more times in the 8th.
Ramirez's two-run home run was the big blast that send the Pirates reeling.
Jeff Karstens took the loss, leaving the game in the first inning with pain in his hip.

"'To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.' - Voltaire"Featured comment
Auckland Council has used bullying tactics to try to silence a member of the public who criticised it on Twitter.
When Tara Sutherland – an infrastructure designer at Telecom – wrote a scathing tweet yesterday about Auckland's parking prices, the council's transport arm, Auckland Transport, complained to her employer.
Ms Sutherland's offending tweet read: "Screw you Auckland City ... your public transport is rubbish and in the space of three hours you triple parking prices!"
The tweet was accompanied by a photo of two parking tickets reflecting Ms Sutherland's gripe.
Two hours later, she tweeted that Auckland Council had made a complaint to her employer about the tweet.
In a tweet soon after an unidentified person from Auckland Transport replied, saying: "Sincere apologies. As moderator I'm mortified and we're dealing with it internally as it is in breach of our policy."
The wayward bureaucrat at Auckland Transport would have had to do some digging to find who Ms Sutherland's employer is, as it is not listed on her Twitter profile.
Mayor Len Brown would not front to explain why one of his citizens was bullied by a council bureaucrat, instead referring NBR ONLINE's inquiries to the council's bloated PR team.
Council communications manager Sharon Hunter says an internal investigation has been launched to work out how it occurred.
"Auckland Transport has an open approach to comments on social media and welcomes all feedback regarding our services and activities." Unmitigated bunkum.
The so-called "open approach" and feedback welcome failed in this case.
Which raises the question of how much more of this sort of nasty bullying is going on in Brown's Town?
Tell us your council bullying story.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- The victim of Sunday's fatal accident on the Gene Snyder Freeway was identified Monday.
The coroner tells WHAS11 Dustin Cooper, 21, was killed when the Chevy Cavalier he was driving got trapped under a semi truck and became engulfed in flames at the Bardstown Road exit.
That accident happened around 9:30 Sunday night.
The driver of the semi and the passenger in the Chevy were not injured, but the passenger in the Chevy was arrested after leaving the scene of that accident. Police said he had a warrant for his arrest.
Police on the scene said alcohol may have been a factor in the accident, but autopsy results are not complete.

MADISON, WI (WSAU) The Wisconsin men's basketball team will host Virginia tonight in the Big Ten-A-C-C Challenge. Both teams are 4-and-2. The Badgers are coming off a seven-point win over Arkansas at the Las Vegas Invitational, in which they overcame an 11-point deficit at halftime. The Badgers are 6-and-7 in their annual challenge against A-C-C teams, but they're 4-and-1 in Madison.
The game also marks the return of former Badgers' assistant Tony Bennett, who's now the head coach at Virginia.
Meanwhile, Sam Dekker – the state's fourth all-time high school scorer – continues to adjust to the college game. He had a season-high 19 points off the bench against Arkansas, and he's third among Big Ten freshman with 11-and-a-half points a game. Dekker is also third on the Badgers in scoring. But he says he should be playing better defense by now. Dekker says he's had trouble adjusting to the Badgers' help-side defense, and getting players around curls. But he's getting more comfortable with the system each day. Some fans wonder why Dekker's not starting – but he accepts his role, and he says he's embracing the opportunity to play for Wisconsin.
Also tonight, the Badger women play at Virginia Tech in their Big Ten-A-C-C Challenge. And the Marquette women are at South Dakota State.

The NFL ensured that the legacy of Deacon Jones will live long after his death by naming an award after the greatest pass rusher in league history.
Starting 2013, the NFL's leader in sacks will receive the Deacon Jones Award, according to NFL.com.
The NFL made the announcement as part of a tribute to Jones during memorial services held for him in Los Angeles this weekend. The Hall of Famer died less than three weeks ago due to natural causes. He was 74-years-old at the time of his death.
Ironically Jones' career sacks total cannot be quantified since the term did not become an official statistic until 1982. Jones played his career debut with the Los Angeles Rams in 1961 and retired from the NFL after the 1974 season. However, his impact in the game as a premier pass-rusher and team leader cannot be denied.
"Even with his fellow Hall of Famers, Deacon Jones held a special status. He was an icon among the icons," NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said of Deacon Jones (via Twitter) following the former NFL defensive end's death earlier this month. "He is warmly regarded by his peers not only as one of the greatest players in history but also for his influence & sense of humor."
Now, the man who coined the term quarterback sack, will now be forever memorialized in a new award recognizing the player who leads the league in sacks at the end of each season. The Deacon Jones Award will be among those featured in the nationally televised "NFL Honors" award show the night before Super Bowl each year.
Jones spent most of his 14-year career with the Los Angeles Rams (1961-1971), where he managed eight Pro Bowl berths and was the leader of the Rams' Fearsome Foursome. He also recorded at least 20 sacks in four separate seasons with the Rams, according to NFL historian John Turney. Then Jones played two seasons for the San Diego Chargers before finishing his NFL career with the Washington Redskins in 1974. Soon after, he was inducted into the Pro Football Hall (1980), and also made the league's 75th anniversary all-time squad.
