Here's an extended look at the show Dad On Avail, coming soon to a TV near you or your TV. Or your Mom's TV, the TV at the Dentist, even Obama's TV. Probably…
Well hello there. I haven't written here in a while so let me reintroduce myself.
My name is Nick Bush, I'm an actor, husband, dad, and dork. (Dynamite Outta Sight, Radical Kid). For the past year or so I've been working with a great group of actors, improvisers, and filmmakers in Los Angeles to make a web series called Dad On Avail.
Dad On Avail is about the joy and struggles of parenthood and acting. Tom and Marie Carroll are both transplants in Los Angeles, and don't have a lot of family to call on to help. Tom's brother, Matt, is eager to help, but he's more of a slob than a babysitter. To quote Tim Gunn, as new parents with little help and experience, you have to "Make It Work".
Tom has had years of training to be an actor, but he's only had three months on the job as a Dad. Marie, Tom's wife, is now back at work and is struggling with being away from her daughter, Olivia.
We've cut together a trailer of the show, and our goal with the show is to pitch and sell. I hope you enjoy and please share with your friends and family.

Smart investors switching to plastic
Credit-card stocks, such as Visa, MasterCard and American Express, are printing money.
By Charles Sizemore, CFA, Editor, The Sizemore Investment Letter
If consumer sentiment soured last quarter, it appears that MasterCard (MA) cardholders were curiously immune. Earlier this week, the company announced third-quarter revenue was up 27%, and the dollar volume of purchases made using MasterCard-branded credit and debit cards rose 18%.
Earnings per share were up an almost mind-blowing 43%. Not bad, given that we might technically be in a recession. MasterCard's results followed stellar (if slightly more modest) results from rival Visa (V).
Post continues below.
For the quarter ended Sept. 30, Visa earnings per share were up 20%. Most companies would kill for 20% EPS growth; only when compared to MasterCard does it look a little shabby.
American Express (AXP), MasterCard and Visa's smaller rival catering primarily to business customers, reported earnings last month. Earnings per share were up 14% for the quarter. Again, not bad given the condition of the economy.
Not surprisingly, all three card stocks have enjoyed a healthy rally this year. MasterCard is the clear winner, up nearly 70% year-to-date, but Visa too has had a nice run. Both of these stocks had been held back by uncertainty surrounding the implementation of the Dodd-Frank Durbin amendment's restrictions on debit-card swipe fees. (American Express was unaffected, as the company issues only credit cards and not debit cards.)
In lumping American Express with MasterCard and Visa, we're not quite comparing apples to apples. AmEx actually makes loans and accepts credit risk. MasterCard and Visa do not; they simply allow banks to issue credit cards branded with their logos, and the issuing banks accept the credit risk. MasterCard and Visa also get a significant amount of their revenues from debit cards; American Express does not.
So, while I consider America Express "safe" in that its clientele tend to be high-quality borrowers, without a debit card business I consider the company's growth to be limited. Thus, we'll focus only on MasterCard and Visa.
Some of the rocket-like outperformance of these stocks this year was thanks to the Durbin uncertainty being lifted (note the vertical spike in both MasterCard and Visa in late June after the Fed's favorable ruling), but there also are two powerful tailwinds supporting these companies:
- The macro move towards a global cashless society.
- The rise of the emerging-market consumer.
Yes, I realize the world will never truly go "cashless." Many shoppers appreciate the anonymity of paying with cash, and cash in some physical form probably always will be with us. Still, the percentage of transactions settled with "plastic" or through other electronic means grows every year, and the continued growth of internet commerce will only speed this along.
By some estimate, as much as 40% of transactions in the United States still take place with cash or paper checks, and the percentage is significantly higher in most emerging markets. Suffice it to say, MasterCard and Visa will have healthy demand for their credit and debit cards for the foreseeable future, regardless of what happens to the economy. If retail sales were to experience zero growth in the years ahead, MasterCard and Visa would be able to enjoy at least modest gains purely from consumers switching to plastic from cash or checks.
MasterCard and Visa also are well positioned to profit from the rise of the new emerging-market middle class. Visa gets close to half of its revenues from outside the United States, and MasterCard gets more than half. Much of this is from the fast-growing economies of Asia, Latin America and the Middle East. Expect to see these percentages rise in the years ahead. While the U.S. and Europe remain mired in a cycle of debt deflation, emerging markets continue to grow, and millions of people formerly trapped in poverty join the ranks of middle class consumers every year.
Neither MasterCard nor Visa are "cheap" in strict value-investor terms; the companies trade at 17 and 16 times their respective 2012 earnings estimates. Still, this slight premium is worth paying for two high-quality, high-growth companies supported by long-term trends.
Visa is a current recommendation of The Sizemore Investment Letter, and Sizemore Capital clients have a position in the stock at time of writing.

Updated May 12, 2011 at 12:35 PM CST: Authorities tell us say there are no federal violations in the case of missing money from Boomtown Days.
Yesterday organizers announced the lineup for the 10th anniversary of the big event.
In December committee members for the not-for-profit group were informed about missing money. And although there are no federal violations, the Joplin Police Department is in the process of requesting an investigation by the Missouri Highway Patrol's criminal division.
The highway patrol says it will take them at least a month or more to review the case and make a determination.
After the money was reported missing the group's financial chair, Kim Lester, was removed from the committee. She also resigned her post at the chamber of commerce.
Lester has not returned calls or messages.
Joplin police had turned the case over to the FBI because some city employees, including police officers, serve on the committee.
Posted May 11, 2011 at 6:23 PM CST: The Boomtown Days steering committee rallies the media and its sponsors to kick off promotion for the big event despite its earlier negative publicity over missing funds.
Boomtown coordinators today praised sponsors who came back despite the money woes.
Boomtown officials thanked sponsors and volunteers as they announced events planned for the festival's 10th anniversary from a chili cook off contest, to military salutes and music.
One big change this year will be in the kids area. There will be no carnival, but there will be bounce houses and another marvel character, this time Captain America. Also, instead of Boomer buttons, there will be wrist bands that glow in the dark.
The Boomtown Days steering committee says there is nothing new on the investigation into possible missing funds. In December, some committee members were made aware that funds were missing.
The financial chair at that time, Kim Lester, resigned from her Chamber of Commerce job and was removed from the boomtown committee post.
Joplin police turned over the case to the FBI, which will not confirm it is looking into the matter.
Boomtown Days Co-Chair Ginger Lamar says they had some delays in getting started planning because of the investigation into missing funds but says it won't affect the overall festival.
"We're told we won't hear anything until after the festival," says Lamar. "We have great volunteers and great sponsors coming back to us."
The entertainment lineup for the weekend is as follows:

Earth Day Activities
On Monday, April 22, the campus sustainability task force will present "Climate Reality: An Engineering Challenge" with guest speaker James A. D'Aloisio, an engineer who has written extensively on the relationship between building structures and sustainability. This is a great opportunity for students to reconize whats going on with the world if they dont already know. I think its a very good instructional thing that the school is putting on.
On Tuesday, April 23, faculty will present "Global Warming and What You Can Do," a day-long exploration of environmental issues featuring films and discussion from noon-6 p.m. in Kunsela Lecture Hall. This is another great opportunity for the students, this is a very interesting topic that I care about and I will attend to better my knowledge.
On Wednesday, April 24, the campus will conduct a "Whole Building Waste Audit" with the help of staff from the Oneida-Herkimer Solid Waste Authority. Trash and recycled items from Kunsela Hall will be sorted, weighed and evaluated. Weather permitting, this event will take place outdoors between Kunsela and Donovan Halls. Yet another great neat opportunity for the students, that most schools dont normally present information on.
All cool great ways to interact with the students and to help them learn something new and interesting.

LANSING (WKZO) -- The Senate Appropriations Committee in Lansing heard testimony Thursday from Department of Corrections Director Dan Heyns concerning the escape of convicted murderer Michael Elliot earlier this month. Heyns told the committee it was human error and not budget cuts or a lack of staffing that helped Elliot with his escape from the Ionia Correctional Facility.
"If people don't do their jobs, it doesn't do you any good," said Heyns, adding that policies and procedures already in place would have stopped the escape.
Elliot is serving a life sentence for the murders of four people.

Hadoop and Cassandra in the Top 10 Most Important Open Source Projects of 2011
From the Big Data and NoSQL space: Hadoop and Cassandra. And related to this space: OpenStack and Puppet.
So to judge importance, I looked at projects that are influential, gaining in popularity, and/or technical standouts in new areas. In other words, projects that are even more noteworthy than the other noteworthy projects. This means that many projects that are crucial didn't make the list.
On my list of projects left out: Redis, Riak, HBase, and MongoDB. By looking at the explanation of why Android didn't make the list, I could understand why not including Redis, Riak, and MongoDB. But I'd keep HBase.

Tasty canned food.
posted 5 years ago
Fancy Feast's medleys honestly look good enough for ME to eat. But my cats will gladly eat it before I get the chance. This particular kind is a favorite for my bear, but two of my other cats turn their noses up at it when I give it out as a treat. They just have to find a flavor they like, I guess! Overall, a decent wet food.
Pros: tasty, doesn't cause upset stomachs in my crew
Cons: n/a

Roanoke City Council unanimously voted to delay a vote on proposed pay increases for the Mayor, Vice-Mayor, and other City Councilmembers during Monday afternoon's special session.
Councilman Sherman Lea first asked for a delay until the first Monday meeting in June (June 3rd). Several other councilmembers joined Lea in calling for the delay.
Councilman Dr. David Trinkle called for additional public input, and revealed he has asked city staff to come up an alternative proposal that would have incremental pay increases up to the state maximum at a lower percentage than currently proposed.
The current proposals would:
Council has not had a pay increase since 2008, and voted to cut its pay during the Great Recession. Their pay levels reverted to the 2008 level
After Dr. Trinkle's comments, Councilmembers Lea, Ray Ferris, and Bill Bestpitch each expressed concerns regarding how the debate over the proposed pay increase has been portrayed in editorials.
Lea took offense with an editorial calling the proposal an "abuse of power."
Ferris expressed frustration at an image portrayed in "The Roanoker" of City Council as the "best place in town to get a laugh," and of a political cartoon of the Mayor with a shoe on his plate, implying he would "stick his foot in his mouth." Ferris added that if the perception is you're greedy, whether you are or are not, than that is the reality.
Bestpitch called for the debate to stick to the facts and figures, instead of charged rhetoric.
It was unclear at the end of the special session as to whether a special public hearing would be set for the May 20th 7:00 p.m. City Council session, regarding the proposed pay increase.

Missouri requests truckers to bypass Joplin
Missouri is asking truckers to not exit Interstate 44 in Joplin, except for exit 4's fueling plazas, but state officials are expediting trucking permits and waiving fees following the city's deadly tornado.
The Missouri Department of Transportation issued an update Tuesday, May 24, after the May 22 tornado that resulted in 117 fatalities in Joplin. Fuel is not available at I-44 exit 11 and other truck services are unavailable in the Joplin area.
MDOT said certain trucking permits will be issued free and requests will receive priority service around the clock. Carriers entering the area with heavier, wider or longer than normally allowed must request an oversize/overweight permit. Out-of-state carriers that do not hold authority to operate in Missouri can request registration and fuel permits.
Affected truckers should call (800) 877-8499 between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m. Truckers needing emergency permits may call (573) 291-4853 or (573) 291-4517 after these hours.
The expedited service and fee waiver ends at noon May 30.
Many Joplin roads are impassable because of debris, MDOT stated. Emergency response vehicles need reduced traffic on area roads to clear and offer assistance.
Roads in an area north of I-44 are limited to emergency traffic. Law enforcement will ticket drivers who enter this area, which includes sections of Business U.S. 71 and Loop 44.
The area parameters are SR 66 to the north, SR 249 to the east, SR FF/32nd Street to the south and Central City Road to the west. Visit the MoDOT Traveler Information Map – http://www.modot.org/ – and click on the Joplin to see the restricted area boundaries.
Flying J spokesman Jay Stinnett said the Joplin Flying J took a direct hit from the tornado and is closed until repairs can be made, which will be at least two months. Reconstruction will include replacing destroyed fuel pumps and the roof. Employees escaped injury, he added.
The Joplin Pilot had minor damage but is processing transactions. Alternate I-44 company locations are the Flying J in Sullivan, Mo., and Oklahoma City, or Pilot truck stops in Pacific and St. Robert, Mo.
Joel Hamilton, Joplin 44 Petro general manager, said his Petro was undamaged and no Petro employees were injured. "The city, which took the direct hit, is still in a state of search and rescue," he said. "The reality of it has begun to sink in."
Regan Stephans, vice-president of Transport Distribution Co., said power returned May 24 to the Joplin-based company. Joplin trucking companies are generally located outside the path the tornado took. One TDC loaded tractor-trailer arrived in Joplin from Oklahoma on I-44 during the tornado. The driver stopped his truck, but the tornado flipped it over. Although the truck and trailer had damage, the driver was uninjured.
Don Schaefer, president of the Mid-West Truckers Association, said carriers have been extremely busy hauling electrical supplies from factories to Joplin. Tom Crawford, Missouri Trucking Association president, said Joplin carriers had wind damage, but most had fared well.

No-Take Zones in Belize Could Rebuild Conch, Lobster, and Grouper Populations
The islands of Belize are surrounded by vibrant blue waters, beautiful and unusual marine creatures, and the largest barrier reef system in the Western Hemisphere. But even in Belize—one of the least densely populated Caribbean countries—these marine animals and ecosystems are not exempt from exploitative human activities like overfishing. A new report, however, from the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS) suggests a solution for Belize's marine life—and particularly coral reefs—to recover: expand no-take zones.

New Oceana Report Finds Solutions for Protecting the Baltic Sea
You may not know it, but Europe's Baltic Sea is an incredibly unique marine environment: It's the largest body of brackish water on Earth, is home to countless marine species, and is the youngest sea on the planet. Unfortunately, this ecosystem is also one of the most threatened and polluted in the world.

In an event attended by José Ramón Bauzá, the President of the government of the Balearic Islands, and Gabriel Company, Minister of Agriculture, Environment and Territory, the Cabrera National Park hosted the yearly tradition of returning rescued sea turtles to the sea. This event inspires us to take a moment to recognize the benefits of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) like the Cabrera National Park -- safe havens that are essential to the conservation of loggerhead sea turtles and many other species.

Securing the Future of Filipino Fishers
Editor's note: This is part 4 in a series of dispatches from the Philippines.
The last site we visited was overseen by Rare conservation fellow Marybeth Rita. Marybeth has a tough job because her campaign covers three towns separated by a hilly unfinished highway that she traverses by motorbike. After some heavy overnight rain, our van could hardly make it through the deep mud (with no guard rail down to the bay!) so I appreciated the difficulty of Marybeth's assignment.
The mayor of Lanuza, Salvacion Azarcon, met us at her office in the morning. She was a really inspiring woman, and not just because she offered us some local palm wine at 8:30 in the morning. Called pirik-pirik, the wine was mixed with raisins to give it a very mildly sweet taste. It was good enough that we kept the bottle and had more later in the day.
Marybeth and the mayor were working together not just to enact 24/7 volunteer guarding at the MPA, but to start a critically important program to register fishermen. Right now, most local fishermen aren't registered in any way, so it's hard to tell if they're legally in the municipal waters or not. Once registered, fishers will get an awning designed by Marybeth and the pride campaign that promotes the protection of the MPA.
The registration program will also allow fishers to become eligible for a low-interest 2,500 peso loan (about $58). This is a key element of keeping poverty at bay, because unfortunately many fishers can end up in hock to unscrupulous lenders who make loans at outrageous interest rates.

From Dynamite Fishing to Sustainable Fishing
Editor's note: This is part 2 in a series of dispatches from the Philippines.
One of the biggest challenges facing sustainable fishing in the Philippines is the prevalence of dynamite fishing, where fishers create an improvised bomb out of a rum or Coke bottle and ammonium sulfate. The sound wave created by the explosion stuns the fish, which float to the surface, but it also destroys corals and seagrass meadows that can take years to recover from a single blast.
Dynamite fishing has been a problem in Cortes, a town on the southern half of Lanuza Bay. There's a lot of pressure to fish here no matter the cost, because the area produces no other local meat or fruit – everything except some coconuts is sold at the market in Tandag, a half-hour drive to the south. As a result, 80 percent of the residents are fishers, and much of the fish they catch is used to feed their families.
This makes Cortes a perfect location for a Rare campaign, and the mayor, Pedro Trinidad Jr., is an enthusiastic participant. Along with Rare conservation fellow Vincent Duenas, the mayor has upped enforcement of the local MPA – one of Cortes' eight MPAs – with 24/7 volunteer guards. The mayor has even gotten approval to start a landmark program that would require families on welfare assistance to volunteer for shifts in the guardhouse, the first program of its kind in the country.
Vince's work to educate the town about dynamite and illegal fishing has been so successful that fishermen who were part of the problem have now come around. "Illegal fishermen are now stewards of the sea," the mayor said as we met over lunch. "Those who were dynamiting the fish are now guarding the MPA."
Later, we went to visit the guardhouse in Uba, a tiny town of 150 fishing families a short drive from Cortes. Vince's campaign mascot, a friendly oversize rabbitfish named Rabita, made an appearance – swarmed by children – and we met with a dozen fishers and their wives and daughters in the guardhouse, located on a rocky outcropping just outside town.

Help with Scotch shopping in the East Bay
Hi All,
Let me preface this by saying I don't drink alcohol, so am excessively ignorant about it, but...my dilemma. My boyfriend's bday is coming up soon, and he loves to drink good Scotch (I have no idea what makes a Scotch "good" to him). He doesn't buy quality liquor for himself, so I'm thinking of getting him a really nice bottle of Scotch for his bday. Any suggestions about what I should get him, and where to buy it in the East Bay would be greatly appreciated. Money is not an object.
Here are threads with many, many suggestions. However, one man's best is another man's meh. Single malts vs blends, area of origin etc,etc,etc all are personal taste.
Totally depends on your budget and his preferences. Do you know if he prefers Highland malts? Islays with lots of peat and smoke? A spicy sherry cask finish? Are you looking to spend $35-50? $75? $150? Does it need to be unusual, or simply tasty? With a little information I'll recommend a few good options at the price point you want and include suggestions about where to buy them in the East Bay.
re: lexdevil
I really have no idea what he usually drinks, because he doesn't drink it around me. And I sort of don't want to ask him, because then he'll know what I'm getting him. He's not a fussy guy, and my guess is that he'd appreciate a wide variety of tastes, so simply tasty would be fine. He doesn't have a lot of $$, so I don't think he's been drinking expensive Scotch. I wouldn't want to spend more than $75 on a bottle. I live in N. Oakland, so although anywhere in Oak/Berk is fine, the more local the better. Thanks!
re: ace
In that case, though I love them, I would avoid Islays because they are a decidedly acquired taste. There are many Scotch lovers who dislike their sometimes extreme peatiness. Here is an assortment of generally pleasing whiskies at good price points.
Balvenie Double Wood 12 year old (Often at Trader Joe's from $30-35. Currently on sale at BevMo for $32.99). A well balanced, easy drinker with a mild spice from some time spent in sherry casks. A very good deal for a nice drink.
Macallan Fine Oak 10 year old (Under $35 at BevMo). The Fine Oak Macallans are less of the overwhelming sherry bombs that the distillery is known for. A nice, well balanced dram. You could even do two bottles, this and the Balvenie, and stay below your $75 goal.
Balvenie Single Barrel 15 year old (On sale for $58.99 at BevMo). Another really nice Balvenie at a very reasonable price for the quality.
Highland Park 15 year old ($62.99 at BevMo) This has the smoke and peat that Highland Park is known for, but not enough to offend those who don't swing that way. The 18 year old is really special, but more like $100.
Springbank 10 year old (Under $70 at BevMo). A reasonably priced bottle from one of the top cult whisky producers in Scotland. Not Springbank's best, but if you're looking for a label with a Scotch nerd following, this is it.
If I were choosing and I thought the recipient liked Scotch but didn't get to try enough because he doesn't buy it for himself, I'd get the two lowest priced bottles. They're both lovely, and getting him two bottles would allow him to try more. Additionally, if he doesn't like to spend big money on Scotch, he's more likely to be able to buy these for himself in the future if he likes them.
If, however, I knew that the recipient had lots of experience with a range of great Scotches, I'd try to get the most special bottle for the money. Rather than get one of Springbank's least collectible whiskies, I'd go with the Highland Park or Balvenie 15, both of which are excellent. The Balvenie would be the less potentially controversial pick, as it lacks the smoke and peat of the Highland Park. If, however, you can find out if he likes Johnny Walker Black Label, that would indicate that he might favor the Highland Park. You might be able to ask him this without giving away the game, as Black Label is the safe pick in any bar that doesn't have a good Scotch selection.
re: lexdevil
Oooh. You can buy something nicer! I just got an e-mail about a $10 discount on a $75 purchase at BevMo. You purchase on-line to pick up in store. Promotion code is TENSPR. Using that, I'd consider:
Glenrothes 1991 ($79.99 at BevMo, but $69.99 to you) or maybe stretch a bit and do BOTH of the Balvenies I mentioned above.
re: lexdevil
The Albany BevMo has a perfect in stock that is out of stock in Oakland.
Macallan Fine Oak 15 ($77.99, but $67.99 with the promo code above).
Most BevMo stores carry a very large selection/inventory of single-malt Scotch whiskies Ask your b-friend what his favorite brands are. Generally the longer a whisky has been aged, the more refined it will taste (and more expensive it will be!).
Most single-malts are 10 to 12 years old when they are bottled and sold. You might want to buy a bottle of his favorite brand that has been aged somewhere between 15 and 20 years.
Ledger's Liquors has a big selection. The owner seems to know his products, too.
1399 University Avenue @ Acton
Agree with above post of one type being someone's favorite & another's meh. That said, my husband is a big fan of Macallan & I know many of his friends enjoy it too. Also, DH recently had me purchase a 10 yr. Laphroaig for $26.99 at Costco exclaiming "too good of a bargain to pass up".
re: ceekskat
Macallan is great, and a super gift option. It is heavily sherried, which some do not prefer, but few are offended by it the way they are put off by the iodine and peat in some of the Islays. The bummer on Macallan is just that it's expensive. Macallan 18 is outstanding, and an almost universally appreciated gift, but it runs in the $150 a bottle range, while the wonderful Highland Park 18 is around $100. The Macallan Fine Oak (less sherried) series is cheaper and still nice, but it is not what everyone thinks of when they think Macallan.
re: lexdevil
I only recommended Macallan as there are options under $75, namely cask, fine oak & 12 yrs. For someone who "doesn't buy quality liquor for himself", I believe these are great choices. I think DH appreciates all ages, of course the older the better* as I recently splurged for his milestone birthday with a 25 yr. bottle, gulp :)
*Hmm, perfume marketing opportunity? LOL.
re: lexdevil
Thanks so much for all the recs, lexdevil. One more thing to throw into the mix, which I probably should've mentioned. My bf keeps kosher, although I do not. I asked him if scotch has to be kosher, and he said no, unless it's made in old wine barrels (because wine DOES have to be kosher). So I also think if the whiskey had sherry in it, it would not be kosher.
re: ace
Ace more for you to read, a thread about kosher scotch.
And if you don't have time to read the whole thread here is the approved scotch list of the Chicago Rabbinical Council.
re: wolfe
This means that you'll have to avoid Scotches that are aged in used sherry casks (or port, or other wine casks). The upshot of this is absolutely no Macallan, and no Balvenie Double Wood, or Springbank 10. The Balvenie 15 I listed is okay because it is not sherry cask aged. When you look at Scotches on the shelf, look for pale golden ones and shy away from anything dark with redder tones (the result of sherry aging). The Lagavulin 16 on the Kosher list is a favorite of mine and it's in your price range, but it's a powerful Islay with loads of peat.
re: lexdevil
Reporting back- I went to Ledger's. The guy who helped me was nice, but didn't know that some Scotches were kosher, and some weren't. He thought they were all aged in sherry casks. Anyway, I got the Balvenie 15, and the Lagavulin 16, and I'm giving him both, and we'll see which he likes better, which will help me with future Scotch shopping for him. Thanks again for all your help!
Not in the East Bay, the D&M Wines (Fillmore@Sacramento in SF) is selling the Glenrothes Special Reserve single-malt this week for $35. A very good price on a VERY good whisky.
The liquor store in Montclair village (on Mountain near the drugstore) has a good selection of unusual bottles (Signatory special bottlings, etc) though they are mostly more than $80. The owner/manager seemed quite knowledgable and enthusiastic, so it might be a good choice for on-site interactive help.
re: twocents
If you mean Montclair Wines, Spirits, N Brews they are now closed, out of business and the location has a "for lease" sign on it.
re: skwid
Thanks for the info. Seems to me I was there within the last two months. Oh well.
Bevmo is good if they have what you're looking for, but maybe not so much if you need help. I agree Ledger's has an interesting selection. I got a Mackillop's Choice independent bottling there a couple years back. If you're willing to go out to Lafayette, there's a liquor store that also has a pretty interesting selection (Jackson's wine and spirits) though I am not sure if they are helpful or not. K&L in SF has a good selection, but Susan Parnell in the Redwood City store is their spirits buyer and very helpful when she is there.
If you aren't sure exactly his tastes, I agree in particular with the Highland Park suggestions; I personally like Longmorn (15 yr bottling). I also agree on staying away from peaty whisky unless you are sure that's what he likes. Unfortunately, I am not enough of a Scotch nerd to know which bottlings are sherry/port/wine aged... my impression was actually that the majority of Scotch, at least, was aged in used barrels from one of these other beverages.
There are some solid suggestions already, but a lot of the Highland Parks and Macallan's are readily available by the glass at a bunch of local bars and restaurants.
If you're getting a whole bottle for home, get something that you wont normally be served at a friend's home or bar... and try the Glenfiddich 21 Rum Cask finish (it's Kosher too). It's a recognizable brand name, with a different flavor profile because of the Rum Cask (versus french oak or sherry cask).
I still remember my first taste: I sampled a few of their younger Scotches, with some cask strength pours for good measure. When I'd finally made my way to the 21 Rum Cask, it was familiar and surprisingly unique at the same time.
Makes for a nice bottle to have at home and share with a few good friends, and a more memorable gift as well. Isn't that what you're really after?
The owner at Ledgers in Berkeley is nice guy, who has a surprisingly great selection of products.
re: Jumbo_Jack
That's a nice bottle, but I think it's about $45 over budget.
re: Jumbo_Jack
I'm going to third the suggestion for Ledgers (on University at, I think, Acton). It looks like your standard dicey urban corner liquor store but it's not. There's at least one guy in there who's really helpful with their extensive stock. And unfortunately, at least one guy who is not. And I couldn't tell you which was which. But the chances are much better of running into the good guy there than at bevmo. And I'd think going in with a list of kosher scotches could lead to an entertaining time.
re: Chuckles the Clone
I agree, and I'd also recommend hitting K & L, but it's on the wrong side of the bay. I focused on BevMo because I could check their inventory on-line. Much of it should be at Ledgers as well.

Saint Clare's Health System Seeks to Transform Its Sussex Hospital to an Outpatient and Emergency Services Center
November 10, 2011
Application filed with N.J. Department of Health and Senior Services
Saint Clare's Health System (Saint Clare's) today filed a Certificate of Need (CON) application with the state of New Jersey to transform its Sussex hospital to an outpatient surgical, diagnostic and treatment facility including an emergency department.
In its CON application, Saint Clare's proposed to discontinue inpatient medical and inpatient surgical services at Saint Clare's-Sussex Hospital. The CON review process is expected to take six months to complete.
Saint Clare's Board of Directors and leadership along with Catholic Health Initiatives undertook a comprehensive evaluation and a period of discernment to determine that the Sussex hospital's role needed to change for it to continue to serve the health care needs of the Sussex community. As part of the evaluation and discernment process, Saint Clare's commissioned two independent studies. Each study concluded that Sussex County residents would not be adversely affected as a result of discontinuing inpatient services.
While a number of options were considered, including the closure of the hospital, it was decided that maintaining certain services at Saint Clare's-Sussex Hospital, especially emergency care, was important to assure continued access to vital health care services for the Sussex community.
"Not just here in New Jersey but across the country, health care is undergoing rapid change and hospitals are evaluating what measures are required to assure long-term success," said Leslie D. Hirsch, FACHE, president and CEO of Saint Clare's. "When faced with sustained declining demand for inpatient care at Saint Clare's-Sussex Hospital, we deliberated carefully and thoughtfully on the right decision for the Sussex community. Although we cannot sustain the status quo at Sussex, we remain committed to providing health care services that the community needs most, particularly emergency care."
Consistent with declining trends in inpatient admissions across the hospital industry nationally and in New Jersey, fewer Sussex residents have been admitted to Saint Clare's-Sussex Hospital over the past several years. This facility is the smallest, least-utilized hospital in the state of New Jersey caring for on average 12 inpatients daily in a facility that is licensed for more than 100 beds. Total inpatient admissions have decreased by 21 percent from fiscal year 2010 to fiscal year 2011.
"What's important is that the community has access to the services that they rely on us to provide," said Saint Clare's Board Chairman Dr. Edward McManus. "While closure was considered because of the financial savings, we are committed to serving the Sussex community. This plan – while different from the current configuration – delivers on that commitment."
In addition to maintaining a full service emergency department at Saint Clare's-Sussex Hospital, the facility will also continue to operate the Mobile Intensive Care Unit (MICU) program. Saint Clare's continues to be designated by the state of New Jersey as the exclusive provider for Sussex County of pre-hospital Advanced Life Support (ALS) services via its MICU program that is staffed by highly trained paramedics. Additionally, to supplement the network of volunteer ambulance squads in Sussex County, Saint Clare's will also continue to provide Basic Life Support (BLS) ambulance services staffed by experienced emergency medical technicians.
Pending the state's approval of the CON, Saint Clare's-Sussex Hospital will continue to provide a number of services including:
- Emergency Services
- Women's Health Center
- Same Day Surgery
- Endoscopy and minor procedures
- Diagnostic imaging including CT scan and mammography
- Ultrasound
- Peripheral vascular and bone densitometry
- Respiratory therapy
- Laboratory and blood bank services
- Pharmacy support
Sussex patients will continue to have access to their medical records as they do now. Medical records will be retained at the Sussex campus.
Of the 167 employees who currently work at the hospital, 55 full-time, part-time and per diem employees are expected to be affected by the change in services. These employees will receive priority placement for open positions at Saint Clare's other facilities. They will be provided two months' advance notice of position eliminations or changes. Employees will also be offered severance based on Saint Clare's policy as well as outplacement support.
About Saint Clare's Health System
Saint Clare's Health System, which has served the health care needs of northwestern New Jersey residents since 1895, is the region's premier provider of community-based health care and behavioral health services. Saint Clare's operates hospitals in Boonton Township, Denville, Dover and Sussex Borough and other facilities located throughout Morris and Sussex counties.
Saint Clare's is part of Catholic Health Initiatives (CHI), a national nonprofit health organization with headquarters in Englewood, Colorado. The faith-based system operates in 19 states and includes 73 hospitals; 40 long-term care, assisted- and residential-living facilities; two community health-services organizations; and home health agencies.


text: Finally the time was upon us, the time for 5&ADime's 4th annual Motor Union! I can still remember the first one, it was held at the shop and cars just piled around the street and into spots not meant for parking. To think that was only a few years ago and to look at how huge the event has now become is wild! Since moving the event to the Green Flash Brewery in Mira Mesa, its skyrocketed to one of the more sought out events of the year for the car community and urban community combined! I mean there's nothing wrong with beer, cars and prizes! Always can have a fun time with that! Anyways my morning started at Zarlitos of course where I had Tapsilog with a few of my friends. After eating quickly we made the trek north to the show! Once arriving and walking through the gates I could already tell it was gonna be a good time. Now one thing I wasn't looking forward to was the weather! Heat was and always will be against me and my good judgment haha. So I had to find a towel to put over my head immediately! After doing so I did meet up with a few more friends and we kicked it talked and shot the shit, ya know typical friend things. But after grabbing myself a beer and loosening up a bit the festivities began! Seeing all the amazing vehicles the owners had put together, and the coming together of all the local brands in one event was an eye opener. But besides that, I'm gonna let the pictures do the talking.

Date Reviewed: April 16, 2009
Strengths: Handles well on the trail (you can just roll over small stumps and logs while maneuvering around hairpins is as easy as a 26er!) and on the road heading to work (fewer revolutions). Doesn't give you the feeling you are sitting up much higher like on other 29ers, but rather "in" the bike like on some of the high end 29ers I have ridden. Ibex staff responded to my questions right away when I was purchasing the product, so I feel good that if something goes wrong they'll take care of me.
Weaknesses: A bit heavier than the most expensive 29ers, and I'd love to see an upgrade option to at least X-9s, but for the price you can't go wrong. I'd also like different paint options.

The bike handles great. After 2000 miles in mud, snow, and salt, no components have failed (except a broken chain). The bike climbs and descent fast, and it is also decent on pavement. The tires handle great on any terrain, and also roll well.

The Champagne Room near Interstate 10 and 40th Street looks like a strip club, but police say it's actually a house of prostitution. Officers raided the building Tuesday and arrested four people.
It took two years of investigating for authorities to bust the place. Police say the business owner, her boyfriend, and two women who worked there as prostitutes have been arrested.
Phoenix police sent undercover officers inside the business. Customers were allegedly given a menu where they could pick from a variety of services.
"Would charge anywhere between $300 to $900 for specific sexual acts," says Phoenix Police Sgt. Steve Martos.
Police were first notified about this place after business owners and employees in the nearby industrial area complained.
"Some girls would stand on the street corner of 40th and flip signs to advertise the business, other girls just stand out front and try to get your attention as you drive by, they play loud music," says Shawne Wilson, who works nearby.
"We hardly saw them..they'd come out every now and then, but we thought it was just a strip joint because of the way they were dressed. They were dressed in nothing, but not in our wildest dreams did we think anything was going on, other than that," said a business owner who did not want to be identified.
Owner Janet Fiore, boyfriend Sterling Costa, and suspected prostitutes Margaret Pahssen and Tiphany Finklea are facing numerous charges.
$6,000 in cash was found inside the Champagne Room. A search warrant was also served on Fiore's home in Surprise, near 107th Avenue and Bell Road.

Syracuse defensive back Shamarko Thomas was impressive in Indianapolis during the 2013 NFL Scouting Combine and one of his shining moments was the 40-yard dash, which he ended with a tumble.
Thomas clocked in with a hand-timed 4.38 and an electronic time of 4.42.
His results in all of the on-field tests were numbers that will help his draft stock improve, but it is his ability to score a 4.4 forty despite faceplanting across the finish line. You read that right: Thomas did a faceplant at the conclusion of his first 40-yard dash attempt.
Here is the fall:You have to be impressed with his ability to finish strong even though he knew he was about to bite the dust. Well done, Shamarko. Well done.
