Bartenders spend much of their time, well, behind bars. They make drinks, make jokes and make you feel welcome, even when youve had too much. The good ones do, anyway. In the Behind Bars series, we give barkeeps a chance to speak their mind. This week, we catch up with Chick's Cafe & Wine Bar's Phoebe Esmon, who tells us how she fell into bartending, why the word mixologist is stupid, and where she goes to find Flemish sour ales.
Name: Phoebe Esmon
Where she is serving: Chicks Cafe & Wine Bar, 614 S 7th Street.
Time served there: A little more than a year.
Where else have you served?
Ugly American
How many years have you been behind bars?
10 years
How did you get into bartending?
We all get into it because we like to drink. I sort of fell into it. I used to go on these research binges, like learning about tiki or learning how to make the perfect Margarita. I once went down to the Kentucky Club in Mexico where the Margarita supposedly originated to see how they made it. Then I graduated from grad school with and art degree and I needed a job. I naturally gravitated toward bartending full time.
How did you go from being just another bartender to a key player in the artisan cocktail renaissance?
I guess from reading a lot of books. My boyfriend is Christian Gaal from Noble. We used to share a house with Nick Jarrett who works at the Franklin and Maria Polise who works at Amada, and it was this torrent of information, and just an accretion of this knowledge. I also think it also comes from knowing how to cook and understanding how flavors interact. Ive been cooking my whole life.
Do you consider yourself a bartender or mixologist?
Bartender. I dont think we need that word mixologist. Any good bartender knows how to mix good drinks and take care of customers. I think mixologist alludes to the fact that you know how to mix drinks, but service is one of the most important parts of bartending.
Where did you pick up your bartending skills?
Its mostly been through learning, exploring my own interests and watching other bartenders work.
Do you have a favorite beer?
Im really into Flemish sours. Im kind of obsessed with that style right now and open to all of them. Ive been picking them up at the Foodery and I had a really good one at the HeadHouse before it closed.
How would you describe your ideal customer?
Open to unlikely combinations of flavors. Not overbearing or planning on making out with anyone at my bar. Respectful and treats the bartender like an equal.
How would you describe your worst customer?
That would involve making out at the bar. Id say anyone who causes the other people sitting at the bar any sort of discomfort, whether its through vocalizations or actions. People who pound on the bar, wave dollar bills in the air, yell or pick fights. Your worst customer at a bar is exactly what comes to mind when you think about an obnoxious person.
Most bartenders know a good joke or two, do you?
Im more of a snappy comeback girl than a joke teller.
Have you ever had to break up a fight?
Just barely once; it was verbal fight that was just on the verge of going fisticuffs.
How do you deal with unruly drunks?
Everyone who sits down at my bar receives a glass of water. If they come in and theyre obviously drunk, I dont ask them what theyre drinking and just leave them with the glass of water.
Do you think its okay for bartenders to hook up with customers?
I dont think its very professional to do that.
Whats the best tip youve received?
This old guy from South Philly came in one night and he was talking to the owner. I guess they knew each other. He and his friends kept trying to one up each other. He insisted on buying their drinks and kept tipping on them each round. Then as he was leaving, he stepped back in and said, Sweetheart, sweetheart, sweetheart, thank you so much. He took my hand and palmed me a $100 bill.
What is the best part of being a bartender?
In my case I have a lot creativity at my job. I have a lot of freedom to do stuff. I really like the interaction and making sure people are happy and comfortable.
Whats the worst part?
Having to clean the bar at four oclock in the morning, and they way my hands look after working three or four days.
Where can we find you on the other side of the bar?
Southwark, Alfa, Village Whiskey, Franklin. Southwark is probably my favorite bar.
Why should I come and get a drink from you as opposed to the bartender at the next bar?
Im better looking, I have wit and a charming personality. And, the drinks I make are different. The drinks I make are not the same as what you might find at the next bar.
Whats the secret to being a great bartender?
Caring and not taking any shit.

NASCAR has a Chase again!
11/9/09 in NASCAR | Debi_L | 11868 respect
While neither Mark Martin nor Jeff Gordon were able to make the very best of Jimmie's bad luck by winning, the difference between them and the top spot has decreased drastically.
While before the race, we were joking that Jimmie could park the car and still have the lead, no one really expected that to happen. Unfortunately for him, that's almost exactly what happened.
Jimmie finished in 38th position, over 100 laps down to the winner, Kurt Busch. Mark Martin wasn't able to lead the most laps (or any laps), or win the race, Kurt's younger brother Kyle led the most laps, and almost won the race, but for running out of fuel, like so many others. Jeff Gordon wasn't able to make the most of Jimmie's misfortune either, calling his 13th place finish a "missed opportunity". He did lead some laps, and it seemd for a whilethat he might be able to do what he had donein the spring, but in the end, it wasn't to be. He ran into trouble and spun on the track, needing to replace the splitter on his car. Jeff doesn't like Texas much, and says so freely, but coming ouf of there with a 13th place finish was a bit of a victory.
In the end, the top three spots didn't change, although the points did tighten up. Mark is now only 73 points back of Jimmie, while Jeff is 112 back. Kurt Busch jumped 2 spots to fourth, while Juan Pablo Montoya dropped two, to 6th. Tony Stewart stays in 5th, but even he is closer to Jimmie than even Mark was before the weekend, only 178 points out of first.
So, who has a chance? Is it still all about Jimmie? With his 73 point cushion, Jimmie and Chad can call all the shots. They can determine how to "attack" Phoenix and, after that, Homestead. Mark Martin has a chance, but it isn't a great chance. Jeff, too, has a chance, but really, unless Jimmie crashes out again early this coming Sunday, it is still his Championship to lose, in my opinion.
I could spout a bunch of stats about what Mark and Jeff need to do, and what Jimmie can do and still win, but I'm not a stats kind of fan. I go with the gut, even though my gut may not always be right. Yep, that would be me who has been saying for the last couple of weeks that it was all done, that Jimmie was going to break Cale Yarborough's record and win four championship.
I still say that is the case. I still think Jimmie is going to win his fourth Championship in a row. I know there are a ton of Mark Martin fans out there, to say nothing of Jeff Gordon fans, all of whom disagree with what I say. I just don't see the comfort level or the commitment in those two that I see in Jimmie and Chad.
Unfortunately, Tony, Juan, Kurt and the rest are really out of this equation. Juan is over 200 points back, and with only two races left, there is just no getting around it, the rest are just racing for a win. Carl Edwards, Ryan Newman, Greg Biffle and Juan Pablo Montoya are in the top twelve, but none of them has won a race this year. Carl and Greg specifically are surprised to find themselves in this situation and really will be looking for the win and the bragging rights. Without at least one win, it will be a very long winter for both of them.
And by the way, I really hope Kurt doesn't win again, I don't want to see another of those backwards Victory Laps. Although I understand it may be his own unique salute to the fans, it doesn't work.
Two more races to go. I've told you what I think, that Jimmie is going to be the champion, but what do you think? Does anyone have a chance?

I am the third NZ owner of this MX5 which has been used purely as a fun car. The hood and rear window are excellent, with no leaks. The upholstery has no tears or repairs and the paintwork is also in very good condition apart from a fewminor scratches or stone chips.The centre of the dash has been cracked but is not obvious;probably done by a previous owner fitting an extra radio to give both CD and cassette facilities. Extras include Nardi leather bound steering wheel,steering wheel clamp and rear mudflaps. Overall the car is in very good original condition and a delight to drive.
The car is located in Te Awamutu. A new WOF will be included.

PitBull Petrill
Much has been said about the chins of Lennox and Wlad. IMO both had/ have decent chins because Wlad took some bombs from Sanders and still kept getting up. Thank God the ref stopped it. Lennox did get hit with bombs when KOed. All in all… average chins.Posted April 5, 2013 9:54 am
PitBull Petrill
excellent points Tark.Posted April 5, 2013 9:49 am
I have never seen boxing "writers" post such one sided, blind sided comments about boxers. If you read this article it sounds like DAVID PRICE tripped over his own feet like Tony Thompson did nothing. SOOO continue to pump David's head up with this rubbish, you guys are doing the same like you did with the first fight…LOL this is laughable.!!! David the air you breathe alone wil allow you to win this fight! LMAOPosted April 4, 2013 8:41 am
It's Me, Ernie
Blah blah blah…Posted April 3, 2013 10:40 pm
One loss doesn't end a career… Just look at Wladimir, who suffered through 3 really bad stoppages before he got his act together. However the manner of Price's stoppage was cause for concern. He didn't take a really heavy shot, but he got clipped behind the ear where some guys can take it and some can't … He can't.
With Wladimir, he didn't react badly to any one punch… With Lennox, he got hit with a couple of the hardest right hands ever thrown.Posted April 3, 2013 7:13 pm
Price on points or a late knockout … in a boring fight.Posted April 3, 2013 6:34 pm
It shows Price has character to take him on again …. i think Price can do it. Hopefully Price can adapt …. if he cant beat Thompson then its hard to see where he can go from here. Its a do-or-die fight. I wonder if Thompson will come in better shape this time?Posted April 3, 2013 6:33 pm
the dude
Thompson by Ko round 7Posted April 3, 2013 5:14 pm
Let them fight five times. Oh, I forgot their names aren't Pac and Marquez.Posted April 3, 2013 4:57 pm
Price needs to do what he has to do to get to wlad, if that means fighting boring defensive fights then so be it, if or when he gets a shot at Wlad, then he should do what he tried to do to Thompson, if u and ur opponent have questionable chins then u better land firstPosted April 3, 2013 4:41 pm
Good piece of writing. A well balanced article.Posted April 3, 2013 4:02 pm
Mick the Marmalizer
I'm English, but believe the rematch should not happen in the UK!Posted April 3, 2013 3:22 pm
horst fraze
i gotta agree, price was exposed and the only question is how much longer he can last the second time around, bonne chance!Posted April 3, 2013 2:40 pm
Whether it happens or not, regardless of who wins, my question for Thompson is "why bother?"Posted April 3, 2013 2:11 pm
Mooma Ja Hoopa
In the Rematch, Thompson is going to be in better shape and he is going to give Price trouble again.Posted April 3, 2013 12:59 pm
I think Price will win the return. Price learned a harsh lesson last time and he strikes me as a person that will heed the lesson. I suspect his punch-resistance will always be a weakness, he just needs to develop a style that limits the exposure of that weakness ….. a bit like Wladimir did. We will wait and see but I think Price will bet Thompson this time round. Thompson is nothing special …. a decent boxer but not a fighter that deserves to be feared at world level.Posted April 3, 2013 12:55 pm
Yes Price had to try and get a rematch anything less would look like he was ducking Thompson.Thats the problem today with fighters waiting to long to advance their careers,they are to old to rebuild rearange their blueprints.At 29 or 30 fighters have to move pretty fast if they want to do something big.I also agree Price dosent look happy when he has to fight on his back foot,and when your knocking out medicore fighters your not learning how to do this very well.But this is a make or break fight for Price.Because of the type of shot Price took on the ear I will give him a pass but with a big ?.Its like a clean liver shot it dosent mean you have a weak body if you get stopped by it.But this rematch will tell the whole story,if Price can move on or look to be a bouncer somewhere.Posted April 3, 2013 12:28 pm
I think price was guilty of underestimating thompson. He was on top and tried to finish him off early like all the others and got caught going for the stoppage, however this time by a top boxer. When you step up you have to be aware of that and price wasnt. I would expect price to win next time around but a defeat would finish him so for price this fight is hugePosted April 3, 2013 12:28 pm
get knocked out againPosted April 3, 2013 12:24 pm

Originally written on 643ball | Last updated 10/18/14
We'll continue our look at the ten fantasy baseball trade hounds you may or may not want to find yourself in negotiations with this season. Every league has that dude that sends you a low-ball offer for Mike Trout, or maybe worse the guy who gives Mike Trout away for next to nothing because he just got back from his two year cruise in Aruba. We've all interacted with one at some point, and while they may assume different names and faces, at their core is the same essential trade personality. Click here to read Part One. Each of these characters is given a frustration rating on a 1-5 scale, where 1 isn't that bad and 5 makes you want to tear your hair out. On to the rest of the list... The No-ShowA favorite of mine, the No-Show is exactly what it sounds like. On draft day, he's ready to go. He even makes some nice picks and has a nice start to the season. But that's the last you'll hear from him folks. Try sending him an email. Try calling him on the phone. Try sending a carrier pigeon. This guy just can't be reached. He'll resurface in September with an inbox full of trade proposals and his league dues ready to be turned in. He's the Bermuda Triangle of fantasy baseball owners. Frustration Level: 5 the first year he does it, down to 1 after you get used to himThe ProspectorProspectors are a rarity in redraft leagues, although they do sometimes exist in deeper ones. More often than not they can be found lurking in keeper leagues. I actually believe the Prospector WANTS to fall out of contention so he can begin collecting prospects from other teams' farm systems the way your creepy auntie collects porcelain figurines in her china cabinet. The Prospector's internet browsing history contains the statistics from every minor league game that's been played in the last three months and he's most likely got a copy of the Prospect Handbook under his pillow, which he reads every night while his wife stares off into the middle distance. Frustration Level: 2Harassment HarryHarry just doesn't take no for an answer. He sees his constant chatter as being persistent, and that has to be good, right? Not interested? Expect daily emails to continue. Blocked him on Facebook? He found your phone number. Giving him any of the players he wants will just aggravate the situation. You might think it will make him go away, but in fact it will be like feeding the seagulls at the beach. Soon you'll be changing your address and developing a nervous tick when someone mentions the words, "...any interest in making a deal?...." Frustration Level: 4Accept-O-BotAccept-O-Bot is a personal favorite of mine due to the fact that I have been able to acquire players from him that are normally hard to get. You see, Accept-O-Bot gets his name from the fact that he will basically accept any deal that crosses his inbox, making it seem like his team is run by an automated response system. You can basically go to this guy with any offer and treat his team like it's your own personal waiver wire. Only problem is that other teams are onto this as well, which means you will cringe every time you see Accept-O-Bot's name in an "accepted trade" notice from your league, because somebody just got a player for 50 cents on the dollar, and it wasn't you. Frustration Level: 1 when it's you, 5 when it's somebody else...The Treadmill (AKA: The Flipper)The Treadmill is a variation of the Accept-O-Bot, but he actually makes some pretty sly moves. The only problem (and this is how he gets his name) is that he will make so many cute little deals over the course of the season that he will essentially end up with the exact same team statistically as he would have if he made no deals whatsoever! Every player he gets, he flips, and he keeps flipping and flipping until he can't remember what he was trying to improve in the first place. You can spot a Treadmill pretty easily. They are the one that finishes in sixth place EVERY YEAR and their team never has any of the players they drafted on it at the end of the season. Frustration Level: 1Have you encountered any of these characters? Did we miss any? Leave your thoughts and stories below in the comments section. Happy trading!

5 notes &
Your Breakdown Will Be Your Breakthrough!
I hope through sharing my story, I can make a difference because finding this blog has been a true blessing.
I was born and raised on Oahu. The culture is very relationship-family oriented and people are so accepting. The ethnic groups were diverse and open to each other's culture, beliefs, etc. I grew up in a positive culture and family without much judgment or pressure to be thin.
However, when I attended college in California (Biola Univ. a strict Christian univ because my mom wanted me to attend a "safe Christian" school), I was surrounded by a majority of Whites who looked like Barbie. I was an athlete my whole life in soccer and track (and still am fitness oriented). Retrospect, I was already beautiful, lean, and had a healthy amount of muscle for a 5'6" 18 year old Japanese-Okinawan female. But with the comparison of my peers/college environment and not having any support group, for the first time I felt unsure about myself—and my body! I was away from being accepted, known, my hometown, family, friends, etc. I was lonely and felt unaccepted. I began to run and increase my runs to cope with the rejection and loneliness. This is how the anorexia began for the next 3 more years by restricting and running daily. Before, I sought treatment and counseling, I was dangerously thin for 5'6. Many looked up to me and my friends were slightly envious of my willpower and determination, yet they were alarmed at how thin I was looking. The disorder was controlling and affecting me too much that I finally sought help. I'm glad I did.
After recovering from anorexia, now the other extreme of eating loads of comfort foods! Whats happening?! I felt lost, ashamed, depressed, angry, frustrated, helpless in this vicious cylcle of binging.
At that time in my last year in grad school pursing a MA in Clinical Psychology. I was under a lot of stress, pressure from school, and had a difficulty to handle disappointment. And—I was healing from a toxic emotionally abusive relationship that just ended. The only thing that felt comforting and a way to escape was through overeating and binging on comfort foods.
I felt rejected and disapproved by my own mother. I gained a lot of weight from binging. My mom was very critical and would say disapproving comments about my body, food intake or too much this or that. Sigh. While struggling with binging, it was difficult because I felt trapped between what my mom desired me to look like vs what my body was capable of. I wanted my mother's approval and appreciation of me, not just my external looks. After many moments of crying, feeling desperate, helpless, hopeless, and back to all or nothing thinking, I finally broke down.
What made me realize I needed to heal completely and wanted to have lasting solutions:
I believed I wouldn't ever have completely satisfied relationships with my family, friends, future partner/marriage/family. Why? Because I would continue to be preoccupied about eating and feeling emotionally horrible about myself.
Would you want to be with someone who struggles with binge eating, emotionally unavailable, poor body image—-and to seek my future partner to help and reassure me over and over? I answered that question and said no, it's unfair for that special person. Since, I desired to be an influential role model to my future partner and children (which I still don't have children), I wanted to give them my undivided attention, affirmation, love, respect, and support. I wanted to change my life and future. I am the creator of my life! I knew making this commitment would be the hardest, but I knew my reward of my life would be priceless! And it has been beautiful! I've been pursuing more of my dreams, my friendships are deeper, have an amazing relationship with someone, more confidence, lack of fear on overeating, and more unconditional love for myself. Fast forward to 2012, I've healed through binge eating and anorexia.
The process of healing and growing was filled with challenges. There were moments I wanted to forget about my commitment to heal. It was a process of accepting who I was and who I was growing to be. This is where I learned that to be unconditional to myself.
Change can only happen when someone is ready to change. A deep belief and commitment that YOU are valued and worthy to deserve the best for yourself. You deserve every ounce of joy, hope, self love, self acceptance, drive, forgiveness, belief, etc. Even though you may desire to lose weight, but if you're still believing that you are ugly, undeserving—your actions overtime will resort back to binging or negative self talk.
I've read a lot of reading on binging and nutrition books, but it still felt it was too narrow or missed a lot of other issues on body image, culture, family experiences, and the other aspects on self valuing. I'm currently writing a binging book now that touches upon aspects of how our family, culture, self expectations, stressors and other aspects that keep us trapped into binging.
I'm a personal trainer. I have always wanted to be one. I wanted to share and empower others that the vicious cyle of emotionally eating or negative body image doesn't have to be "heavily dependent on to exercise yourself to be thin." I'm planning to return for a doctorate in psychology to help more people who struggle with disordered eating, eating disorders, binging, etc especially with the asian culture.
Lastly, the power of Instagram has allowed me to speak on taboo topics on binging, all or nothing thinking and about our attitude towards fitness. The amazing aspect of IG is that it has created a community of support, honesty, and encouaging others. I'd love to meet more from this community—and COLLABORATE with others who are passionate about the Asian community and the values of EMPOWERING oneself!
Thank you for taking the time to read and hear my story.

Even before the NYPD was embroiled in a dustup over dirty dancing, four cops got caught up in a Fourth of July football-throwing fiasco, the Daily News has learned.
Two of the officers are fighting the discipline raps they received for tossing around a football with a young boy at a Bronx housing project - charging oversensitivity from police brass jeopardizes community relations.
"I don't think throwing a football to a 7-year-old boy is misconduct," said Officer Catherine Guzman, a 17-year veteran of the force. "It was the Fourth of July, it was 96 degrees out and we were interacting with the community.
"Everybody was happy," she added.
That is, everybody except Deputy Chief James McNamara, the commanding officer of the Bronx Housing Bureau. He witnessed the football tossing and gave the cops a dressing-down worthy of Vince Lombardi.
"He was irate and berated us in front of everyone," Guzman recalled. "He said, 'What are you doing? Do you realize you are on overtime?'"
News of the football caper comes on the heels of controversy over cops videotaped dancing and gyrating during the annual West Indian American Day Carnival Parade. Police officials are reviewing the tape of the Labor Day weekend incident, which shows cops happily grinding their hips into the backsides of scantily clad dancers at the Brooklyn parade.
The four officers involved in the 2010 football-throwing incident at the Webster Houses were slapped with command disciplines, and two accepted a penalty of two vacation days.
But Guzman and Officer Mariana Diaz are appealing the ruling and taking their case to the department trial room.
Both face significantly stiffer penalties if they are found guilty of charges that they "did fail and neglect to remain alert, to wit: throwing and catching a football with three uniformed members of service…while maintaining a foot post."
Their lawyer, Eric Sanders, said the NYPD needs to rethink its definition of community policing.
"I think the Police Department prefers its officers to be an occupying force rather than interacting with the community it serves," Sanders said.
NYPD spokesman Paul Browne did not respond to a request for comment.
Diaz said she's taking a stand on principle.
"There's a lot of negativity toward police," she said. "I want kids in the community to look at us in a positive way."

Alleged child abductor Randall Peter Hopley, 46, arrived at court in Cranbrook, B.C., early Wednesday morning to face charges in the alleged kidnapping of three-year-old Kienan Hebert last week.
Hopley was spotted being transferred from an RCMP vehicle around 8 a.m. PT. He is expected to appear briefly in court to face charges of kidnapping and abduction of a person under age 14.
On Tuesday morning Hopley was arrested with the assistance of police dogs as he was running from an abandoned cabin at a bible camp in the Crowsnest Lake area in Alberta near the B.C. border.
Hopley, 46, is accused of abducting Kienan Hebert from his home in Sparwood last Wednesday. Kienan was returned unharmed to his family home on Sunday morning.
Court documents indicate Hopley has already been charged with two counts of breach of probation. One of the breaches is alleged to have occurred last Wednesday, and the other on Monday.
9/11 - Ten Years Later by Constable Sandra Glendinning (Vancouver PD)
We all have a story from that fateful morning.
Of where we were. Of what we were doing. Of the memories.
Some from the East coast of Canada took in those stranded by re-routed planes – God bless you. Others tried contacting friends and loved ones in the stricken areas. Still others were there, at Ground Zero.
For most of us, though, our memories revolve around watching the day unfold on television.
I was attending the Vancouver Police Department's Homicide Conference in downtown Vancouver, and the morning of September 11th found me shoulder to shoulder with dozens of police officers from all over North America as we watched the big screens in the hotel lobby.
The first tower fell, and we pressed closer together in an unconscious effort to drawn comfort from one another. When the second tower fell, we spread apart, milling about, not sure what to do with our overwhelming emotions.
Ten years later, I still think about those who were lost – who they were, what they believed in, and what they stood for. First responders – fire fighters, police officers and paramedics – were doing what they did best, and they died trying to make a difference.
Citizens went out of their way to help others in dire need, and strangers reached out to one another.
A plane full of people took charge of their own fate, and likely saved hundreds of innocent lives in the process.
May we never forget.
Where were you?
MONTREAL — Some amateur video shot on The Main has put the Montreal police in the spotlight again for its apparent use of excessive force.
Police were called to St-Laurent Blvd. near the corner of Prince Arthur St. late Wednesday night to deal with a case of public drunkenness.
Robert Bugeag was out that night, saw the commotion and began recording it with his mobile phone.
The video appears to show police using a billy club on one person, and then using pepper spray.
"They didn't seem to have control at that point, because I think there were three cops and maybe four other people who were arguing and screaming at them, and of course all the other civilians that were around," Bugeag said Friday. "So they seemed to be out numbered."
Later in the video, a woman is crouched near the person who had been pepper sprayed. A police officer appears to be asking her to move away, then grabs her and pushes her into a bicycle post.
"At that point he pushed her so yes, she actually hit the post and with the bicycle there," Bugeag said. "After that she was complaining that she hit a rib and was in a bit in pain."
The police say they are looking into the incident.
"Montreal police is analyzing the event to be sure that the right actions are taken," said Chief Inspector Patrick Lalonde.
That analysis will attempt to determine whether the level of force seen in the video was appropriate, but Lalonde stressed that civilians need to allow the police to work.
"We always ask the citizens who are witnesses to police intervention to step away and let police officers do their job," he said.
However, in Bugeag's eyes, not much more analysis of the event is required.
"For me was it excessive," he said, "maybe a little bit."
Always Remembered ♥
In my Heart ♥
We all remember exactly where we were when tragedy struck on September 11th, 2001. Many of us lost a loved one, or know somebody who did on that day. But tonight, as the tenth anniversary approaches, we pay tribute to the victims that many of us never saw: the 3,000 children who lost their mother or their father on that day. 9/11 touched children of all ages, backgrounds, and religions. They are the living legacy and enduring light of 9/11. Tonight, we salute these remarkable individuals. This is their story.

Still, more than 100 years later, the origins of a bottle of whiskey can still be a bit murky, and a bit controversial.
Take the whiskey called 1835, which is bottled by North Texas Distillers in Lewisville. The name is a salute to the year settlers in Gonzales stood their ground against Mexican troops in what is historically considered the start of the Texas Revolution. The label also reads, "Come and take it," on both the back and front, along with a picture of the iconic cannon that was the seed of the conflict. The words "Texas Made" are printed front and center on the label.
It's unlikely that a single speck of Texas, much less the battle of 1835, is actually in any of those bottles. Stretching the term "Made in Texas," the drink is a blend of whiskeys, most or all of them likely from Kentucky, and is only bottled in Texas. The highly astute label reader or whiskey aficionado would be able to discern this, but the average consumer might not. Despite all the Texas banter, the label lacks one key word that is all-telling: "distilled."
Federal regulations tell a whiskey maker what it can and can't put on its labels. The most important line in the pages and pages of codes unequivocally explains that distillers can use the word "distilled" on a bottle only if they physically distilled the product in its entirety at their facility. If a company does anything else — bottle, blend, package, produce or lovingly coddle — but does not actually create original whiskey from the corn up, they are not allowed to use the verb "distilled" on the label.
Texas Silver Star Spirit Whiskey is another blend from Lewisville, also bottled by North Texas Distillers. It contains 20-percent grain neutral spirits. The back label explains the whiskey is "a tribute to the Texas cowboy of the Chisholm Trail and is meticulously hand-crafted using nothing but the finest ingredients and aged to perfection."
There's no way to know where it's actually distilled.
"There's certainly nothing wrong, per se, with buying a spirit from another producer whether you blend or just bottle," says Charles Cowdery, author of Bourbon, Straight: The Uncut and Unfiltered Story of American Whiskey. "Most of the talk about blending is itself a smokescreen. Most people who resell spirits made by someone else do little more than put it in a bottle."
Cowdery doesn't see anything wrong with these bottlers, as long as they're forthcoming.
"People who make anything from scratch will usually say so straight out. Anyone who doesn't, or who weasel-words it, probably does not," he says.
While some are obviously weasel-wording by romanticizing Texas history, others shoot straight. Leonard Firestone and Troy Robertson of Firestone and Robertson Distilling Co. in Fort Worth met through their kids' playgroup, then spent years researching craft distilling. They traveled the world, studying different methods and dissecting flavor profiles. When they got serious, they had a proprietary wild yeast strain developed by their head distiller, Rob Arnold, who holds a master's degree in biochemistry with a concentration in microbial fermentation and analytical chemistry.
For now, Firestone and Robertson are patiently waiting for their house-made craft whiskey, which was barreled two years ago, to mature. In the meantime, they created a blend called TX Blended Whiskey, which won double gold medals and Best in Class in the category of American Craft Whiskey at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition this year. The back of the label of reads: "We value two things: true craftsmanship and excellent whiskey. That's why we blend and bottle ..."
Cameron, of Rebecca Creek in San Antonio, defends his product's provenance, and says the amount of GNS mixed into his spirit "is far less than many of the major whiskey brands that are currently sold in Texas. The majority of all whiskey producers use GNS for back blending, so the practice is not uncommon." (Says Cowdery, "There is no GNS in straight bourbon nor in any other straight whiskey. Ever. None. Not a drop.")
Besides, Cameron says, it all comes down to taste. "Does it taste good? Do consumers enjoy drinking Rebecca Creek Spirit Whiskey? Is Rebecca Creek Spirit Whiskey reasonably priced? The answer to all three of these questions is, 'Absolutely.' We are selling every bottle we can make and it's now available in five states."
But the state's distillers are watching closely to make sure the blenders follow the law to the letter.
"If there's anything but the exact letters 'distilled by,' then they didn't make it," says Tate of Balcones. "They bought it, maybe they blended it, then a lot of times they hire a guy like me to help them with it. It's a branding opportunity. Does that piss me off as a craft distiller? Yeah. I can't think of a person I've told that they weren't like, 'What?' People actually do care."
Dallas County's first distillery was born out of a chance meeting at a Starbucks 12 years ago. Marshall Louis had a long history in the fine spirits business. Herman Beckley — scientist, historian and distiller — had always been a whiskey geek. They discovered their shared passion by chance, and have quietly been making whiskey ever since. Recently, they finally decided to roll out their products at the retail level, after their Texas Bourbon Whiskey won a silver medal at the American Distilling Institute Competition in the category of straight bourbon.
Are you seriously using the word "fakers" at all in this piece?
Lauren you did a great job with this article. The fakers have long been one of my pet peeves. Part of the problem lies with the TTB; our federal government has laws about labeling and technical if whiskey is distilled one state and bottled in another, then both states are to be listed on the label. The enforcement of said law is spotty at best. Liquor labels also have to be approved by the State of Texas as well to be sold here, so I also blame our State.
My other pet peeve is Spirit Awards. IMHO, these competitions are nothing but pay for play advertising. The largest of the bunch is the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. The last 'award' list from them was 38 pages long and had more winners than products competing (some products entered in multiple categories).
Tito's is still bragging in commercials about an award they 'won' back in 2001 at the San Francisco Spirits Competition. He fails to mention that 2 other Vodkas also 'won' double gold at same award show and another Vodka was named best. Speaking of Fakers, has anybody been to Tito's and seen his fermenting tanks? If you are not fermenting your product, exactly how does one have anything to distill?
Great article, Lauren. Cheers to the Dallas Observer for having the guts to call out the fakers. Texans are too proud of their state to put up with inauthentic marketers parading around as whiskey makers. Drink local, and educate yourself about what you're drinking! Thanks for helping Texans get more educated.
"6 score and several hangovers..." 120+ years? if you wanna make cute turns of phrase, at least know what you're saying
I was wondering how so suddenly we had all these "Texas" Spirits on the shelves, now given that more than half are fakes I know, and sounds like these spirit makers are just following the lead of some of the bogus "Texas" winemakers & specifically the GO TEXAN branding, which has been discussed at length on that other DFW food blog.
Localism is getting turned into modern day snake oil, Hey I was offered "local coffee" at the CM, LOCAL COFFEE !!!!! My cotton T-shirt is more local than my coffee
@scottindallas - I think the point was that 120+ hangovers were endured in the process of coming up with the unique spirits offered by Balcones Distilling. I hate to be this guy, but if you want to snark about cute turns of phrase, at least polish up your reading comprehension skills first.
This was a fine article, the cutesy "6 score" added nothing but confusion. Again, good reporting and writing, save the one silly and pointless sin
@gmit I'll give some credit to the true Texas craft distillers, the ones who products are grain to glass (fermentation, distillation, aging, bottling) all done in state - Balcones, Garrison Brothers, Railean, Ranger Creek, and Bone Spirits (Fitch's Goat). These companies have never sold anything they did not truly make themselves.

"At one point during the monologues "Mary" (born Greta) had a seizure — a real seizure. She fell to the ground with one of those very real thuds and started to convulse. I don't know if you've ever seen someone have a seizure but it is horrifying, and the etymology of being "seized" by some other force suddenly seemed inarguable. Because this was a movement class, we were used people doing weird shit all the time, and of course, moving in bizarre ways was essentially one of the tenets outlined in the course syllabus. But unless this was a social power-play from "Mary" who wasn't much known for stealing the spotlight, this was something that was happening in the real world that all of a sudden the characters in "our" world had to deal with."

Slow Braised Zucchini Courgettes
Preliminaries: For optimal results, make some rosemary infused olive oil. Just put some good olive oil in a clean glass jar, about two thirds of the way up, then stuff the jar full with rosemary. No garlic, no chilis, and certainly not a dainty single sprig. Put the lid on the jar and leave it out on your countertop. Give it a shake when you see it, once a day at least. In a few days you will have a headily rosemary-scented olive oil. At this point you can leave the rosemary in to make the scent even stronger, or remove the rosemary.
If you are in a hurry, you can scent your olive oil as you cook the zucchini slices by putting a couple of sprigs into the simmering oil. Beware of the rosemary burning though, which will impart a bitter taste.
- 3 to 4 small to medium zucchini (courgettes)
- Rosemary infused olive oil, or olive oil plus a couple of sprigs of fresh rosemary, or rosemary hydrolat if you have it (see notes below about hydrolat)
- Salt
Slice the zucchini (courgettes) into 1/2 inch / 1cm thick rounds. Pat the slices dry with paper towels or a kitchen towel.
Pour 1/2 inch / 1cm oil into a large frying pan, and turn the heat up to HIGH. Put the zucchini in one layer in the pan - do not overcrowd the pan. Keep the heat on HIGH until the oil starts to bubble up rapidly, then lower the heat to low-medium, or to the point where the oil is quietly bubbling around the zucchini.
Leave like this for at least 30 minutes, until the undersides of the zucchini slices turn golden brown. Turn the slices over, and cook until the other sides are also golden brown.
Do not add salt during the cooking process! Salt will draw out the moisture from the zucchini, which is not what we want here. We want the moisture to stay inside while the surface gets crisp and caramelized.
Once the zucchini slices are darkly golden brown (they will have shrunk quite a lot too), remove them from the oil. You can drain them on paper towels to get rid of excess oil if you like. If you are using hydrolad, add about 1/2 teaspoonful at most to the hot zucchini slices and toss rapidly right now. Add a pinch of salt - don't oversalt, or you'll mask the delicate rosemary scent.
Serve piping hot, or at room temperature.

I just deleted a database table, only to discover that I deleted my entire database! I didn't even know that was possible.
Is there any way to recover a lost database?
On closer inspection, it looks like I didn't delete the database; instead I deleted all the tables. I see this message: "No tables found in database."
Another note:
I did a search on my Mac and discovered that I apparently still have files associated with at least some of my tables, like this:
gw_geog.myi, gw_geog.myd, gw_geog.frm
I don't see any similar files for some tables I created earlier today, but they should be easy to recreate.

"A literary tour de force . . . [HHhH] is a gripping novel that brings us closer to history as it really happened." —Alan Riding, The New York Times Book Review
"[An] extraordinary first novel . . . HHhH, translated from the French by Sam Taylor, charts Heydrich's rise through the Nazi ranks and Germany's march to war . . . [to] the training in Britain of the Czech and Slovak assassins, Jan Kubiš and Jozef Gabcík, who parachuted into the country in December 1941 to kill Heydrich. Ample material for a decent espionage thriller, but Binet, 'a slave to my scruples,' makes something altogether less commonplace of it. His fidelity to the historical record, and obsessive urge to analyse those moments where surmise replaces fact, makes HHhH as much about the technical and moral processes of writing a historical novel as it is a historical novel . . . This unusual method results in a literary triumph . . . Using short, punchy chapters, Binet keeps his story haring along. The book's final section, which recounts the assassination and subsequent manhunt in minute detail, is a masterpiece of tension, and its closing pages are extremely moving. Very few page-turners come as smart and original as this." —Chris Power, The Times (London)
"Captivating . . . [HHhH] has a vitality very different from that of most historical fiction." —James Wood, The New Yorker
"[Binet] knows how to wrangle powerful moments from history." —Susannah Meadows, The New York Times
"[HHhH is] a marvelous, charming, engaging novel." —Carolyn Kellogg, Los Angeles Times
"Every now and then a piece of work comes along that undermines the assumptions upon which all previous works have been built . . . These pieces of art complicate the genre for everyone that follows. A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius did it for the memoir, Reservoir Dogs for action films, and now HHhH does it for the historical novel. Laurent Binet's brilliantly translated debut deconstructs the process of fiction writing in the face of the brute reality of facts . . . Binet's [HHhH] resets the path of the historical novel. He has a bright, bright future." —David Annand, The Telegraph
"One of the best and most original new novels I've read in years." —Mike Fischer, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
"Ingenious and inventive . . . HHhH [is a] knockout blow in the boxing match of genre-defying literature. Binet steps between styles with ease . . . [and] has written a tale of Heydrich to defy most academic study. Moreover, Binet has managed to engage. His description is playful and joyous, at times even wrongfully celebratory, but always, always surprisingly on form. As a deserving winner of the Prix Goncourt, HHhH is a fantastic read. As a dynamic assault on the genres of contemporary writing, HHhH must join that coterie of celebrated titles: it is unique." —Charles J. Haynes, California Literary Review
"An impressive debut . . . HHhH is fascinating not only because of the subject matter, but also because of the immense amount of detail Binet includes. The book transports and enraptures. It also impresses upon the reader the legacy of that history. His reflections on how to write the book with thoroughness and integrity and the effect of the project on his life are examples of how important the subject and the consequences of the history are to him. Heydrich's life is not as documented as those of other high ranking Nazi officers. By researching and publishing HHhH, Binet reminds the reader that history has myriads of layers, but that they are all relevant in our contemporary world." —Ashley McNelis, Bomb
"[HHhH is] quirky, clever . . . Binet makes a very perceptive and informed recording angel, one with an exceptionally clear and unfussy prose style (rendered extremely well by the translator, Sam Taylor). It doesn't hurt that he has triple-A premium material, but Binet doesn't push too hard to give the events a meaning. He lets them be the tragedy that they are, and as such they're devastating." —Lev Grossman, Time.com
"[HHhH] is as much a meditation on fictionalizing history—on factual truth versus a more expansive definition of truth, on the obligations and the agendas of writers—as it is a story about an assassination . . . Binet accomplishes something paradoxical. By clinging to the historical record and a very strict definition of truth, he transcends the barest facts and creates a work with its own heft and depth . . . [He] has produced the only essential piece of World War II fiction in years." —Jessica Crispin, Barnes & Noble Review
"[HHhH] is utterly compelling and ruthlessly fascinating." —Laurence Mackin, Irish Times
"A breezily charming novel, with a thrilling story that also happens to be true, by a gifted young author . . . [Binet] marshals and deploys his materials with exceptional dramatic skill . . . By the time you reach the book's devastating finale, it's this discreet storytelling mastery . . . that leaves the deepest impression." —James Lasdun, The Guardian
"A cracking book . . . With its double-narrative and its authorial playfulness, HHhH reads in places like a stylistic homage to WG Sebald or Italo Calvino." —Ruadhán MacCormaic, Irish Times
"That HHhH is so devastatingly brilliant is testament to both its originality and ambition. In fact, it would not be going too far to say it is a modern masterpiece." —Rob Minshull, ABC (Brisbane)
"HHhH triumphs precisely because it not only delicately, and sometimes grippingly, depicts a major historical moment, but because it manages to depict the unique challenges of 21st-century remembrance." —Michael Lapointe, The Globe and Mail
"HHhH is brilliant." —Michel Basilières, The Toronto Star
"[A] remarkable first novel . . . Binet has created a rare thing: a book that tells us stories, mixing scholarship with suspense, while simultaneously laying bare and critiquing the book's construction. It's a difficult approach, which makes the enjoyment of reading it all the more striking." —Matthew Tiffany, Plain-Dealer (Cleveland)
"There are not enough books that blend the profound and the entertaining. This is one and it comes in a sparkling translation by novelist Sam Taylor." —John Gardner, New Zealand Herald
"An extraordinary first novel . . . A literary triumph . . . The books final section, which recounts the assassination and subsequent manhunt in minute detail, is a masterpiece of tension, and its closing pages are extremely moving. Very few page-turners come as smart and original as this." —The Times (London)
"This is mesmeric stuff; history brought to chilling, potent life." —Leyla Senai, The Independent
"I really don't know how to praise this book further than to say that it changed my conception of the possibilities of literature. I cannot recommend this book more highly than saying, despite the cliche, that it is an actual must-read, both for its important content, but as importantly, for its avant-garde nature as it pushes forward the boundaries of historical fiction. (From a different lens, it represents the avant garde of teaching history. I can't imagine anyone who would read this book and consequently not feel interested in the essential questions of historiography i.e. what can we truly know about history.) Go out, find this book, devour it, and prepare to find yourself changed, in ways you could not expect." —Joe Winkler, Vol. 1 Brooklyn
"A brilliantly profound debut about the assassination of the architect of the Holocaust . . . I found myself turning pages faster and faster while I read about the two men who parachuted into the countryside and slowly closed in on Heydrich, even though I knew exactly what was about to happen. Maybe you can't write a successful novel about the Holocaust. But, turns out, you can write a wonderful book—let's call it a novel—about the impossibility of writing about the Holocaust." —Malcolm Jones, The Daily Beast
"Riveting . . . [HHhH is] exuberant and breathless and wonderful throughout." —Weston Cutter, Kenyon Review
"HHhH blew me away. Binet's style fuses it all together: a neutral, journalistic honesty sustained with a fiction writer's zeal and story-telling instincts. It's one of the best historical novels I've ever come across." —Bret Easton Ellis, author of American Psycho and Less Than Zero
"HHhH is a highly original piece of work, at once charming, moving, and gripping." —Martin Amis, author of The Pregnant Widow
"A wonderful, ambitious book, and a triumph of translation." —Colum McCann, National Book Award-winning author of Let the Great World Spin
"HHhH is an astonishing book—absorbing, moving, for the agony and acuity with which its author engages the problem of making literary art from unbearable historical fact." —Wells Tower, author of Everything Ravaged, Everything Burned
"A work of absolute originality." —Claude Lanzmann
"By the time I got to the last page of Binet's masterpiece, I had to close my eyes and rethink histo...
Laurent Binet was born in Paris, France, in 1972. He is the author of La Vie professionnelle de Laurent B., a memoir of his experience teaching in secondary schools in Paris. In March 2010, his debut novel, HHhH, won the Prix Goncourt du Premier Roman. Laurent Binet is a professor at the University of Paris III, where he lectures on French literature.
I was looking forward to this book, but finished it slightly disappointed.
So, if, like me, you're a fan of historical fiction, history, fiction, the philosophy of writing fiction, or any combination therein, you'll probably dig this.
Interwoven with the story are Binet's first person thoughts and the decisions he makes during the writing process.

Ford says October China auto sales up 55% year-on-year
That compared with a 61 percent increase in September.
In the first 10 months of the year, sales by the Dearborn, Michigan-based automaker totaled 741,818 vehicles on a wholesale basis, up 52 percent from the same period last year.
Ford, whose sales have been boosted by hot demand for models such as Focus and Mondeo, has now overtaken its Japanese rival Toyota Motor Co., whose sales grew only 4.9 percent during the first 10 months to 719,200 units.
Ford partners with Chongqing ChangAn Automobile Co Ltd. and Jiangling Motors Corp in making vehicles in the world's biggest automotive market. (Reuters)

Step 1: Gut the Front Office
I hate to call for a course of action that involves people losing their jobs – honestly, I do. But what other course of action do the Sabres have before them? Stay the course? Are you kidding me?
It is pretty clear that this is an organization with no clue as to how to build a reputable, successful hockey team. I have written about this before, but who in the Sabres organization has ever truly tasted success? Who brings with them to the table prior experience that can be drawn upon as the Sabres develop their blueprint for the future? Ted Black, and then . . . yeah.
Fans are being told that the Sabres are in the midst of a rebuild. Actually, you can argue that the Sabres have been rebuilding ever since Chris Drury and Daniel Briere left town, and the results are a mixed bag at best, and a complete joke at worse. The people in charge of making decisions for this team appear to be guessing, instead of relying on discernible skill and knowledge, It's time for Terry Pegula to use his money to bring some knowledgeable professionals into the front office of the Buffalo Sabres.

More reviews by MakeUpIsFabulous
The conditioner for this line is great with no issues. The matching shampoo is a stinky little mess.. I would not repurchase.
This conditioner is really creamy and it really worked as good as any salon conditioners I have purchased in the past. I would say its really thick and creamy and it worked great on my dry thick hair. Helped improve the look of my dry hair ends so makes me happy. I would repurchase this again.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This conditioner is ridiculously amazing!! I have really thick natural hair that's pretty hard to detangle. After I washed my hair and added some in, I just left it in as a leave in. Oh my goodness!! My hair was instantly soft and the moisture was restored!! It even worked its magic on the days my hair has suffered from a dramatic dry spell of neglect and laziness. This has the most amazing SLIP out of most of the conditioners I've ever tried! Plus the large size is only $5? That's an awesome steal! I'm one for only using natural products but I'm stuck on this product for the price and the slip.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
I had tried another Garnier conditioner when I was visiting my friend, so I decided to buy one for myself. I saw this at Walmart in a set so I got it just for the conditioner. This conditioner is amazing! I got so sick of buying expensive conditioners and had decided to use drugstore products that were under $10. This is the best conditioner I've tried. It makes my hair instantly soft and when I rinse it out, my hair feels soft. I've settled down with this as my moisturizing conditioner and can't see myself straying.
