When I left islam and realized all other religions are a load of bull crap and became atheist It was one of the best feeling i had i felt free from guilt and can do anything you want like accepting facts , sexual desires are ok , eating pork etc as long as your not hurting others. What about you what was how did it feel and what about your story ? Sorry for my bad English since it's not my first language.
I felt liberated. In scripture Paul claims he had the scales fall off his eyes at conversion. This is exactly how I felt when I realized that I am atheist. What I had believed before was a lie.
Incredibly free for the first time in my life. It was from Judaism which I found very oppressive. I also self published a little book about it on createspace and suggest everyone do the same. Very therapeutic!!!
Eric Stone
Jaber, ironically as an atheist for the first time in my life I have what religion promised. Peace. I have never been more happy or comfortable in my skin. I can now see clearly what is right and wrong. I never worry about offending some unseen God by doing what is natural, or by committing some thought crime, or committing some offense that I am not aware of. Yes peace.

TORONTO, Aug. 13, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BoardSuite (www.boardsuite.co) announced today it has become part of Crowdfunding Infrastructure Platform (CFIP) for the USA Crowdfunding.
The Crowdfunding Infrastructure Platform (CFIP) is a cost-effective best-of-class, cloud-based tools and processes to seamlessly handle the full spectrum of Title II transactional elements. The platform also provides post-transactional Issuer governance and compliance requirements. CFIP is a seamless back office that helps broker dealers and crowdfunding portals with PRE-DURING-POST transaction.
"As I have repeatedly observed about the sale of securities through funding portals is that there inevitably will be lower cost technology based solutions created to replace conventional means of conducting similar business practices, and not only will these solutions achieve the same results but in many cases exceed them - its just happening sooner and better than what I had envisioned," said Douglas Ellenoff of Ellenoff Grossman & Schole LLP.
With an estimated 6 million accredited investors in the U.S. alone, the opportunity presented by Title II of the JOBS Act is very large. However, the legal and regulatory risk to Portals, Broker Dealers and Issuers is equally large. Properly managing this risk requires a new type of integrated scalable technology and services platform.
"Having BoardSuite as part of CFIP is crucial to the success of a seamless platform that we offer to Broker/Dealers, Issuers and Shareholders," said James R Simpson, co-Founder, CFIP.
BoardSuite plays an integral role in assisting companies through the pre and post stages of a crowd funding transaction. Our products provides tools and processes to organize companies for corporate and financial due diligence. Companies can pre-screen themselves with background checks, corporate searches, etc. Post transaction all the closing documents and new shareholder information will be automatically uploaded in BoardSuite. The company, now having successfully raised its capital, will further benefit as all their new shareholders will be given secure access to see their closing documents, share certificate, and any information the company wishes to share with its shareholders. This brings companies and shareholders together like no other environment that exists today.
"When BoardSuite was built, it was to enable any company to organize and manage their corporate information and capitalization table. At that time crowdfunding had not yet evolved. Today, every private company will benefit from using BoardSuite for crowdfunding events. By seamlessly integrating into BoardSuite, companies will have an ongoing and interactive relationship with their shareholders, eliminating the risk of using email to disseminate confidential information. All shareholders will receive the same information at the same time," said Oscar A Jofre, Founder, President/CEO BoardSuite.
Provided as a FREE SaaS-based service, BoardSuite enables management to manage, organize and share their corporate information securely. BoardSuite enables users to manage their documents, calendaring, committees, contracts, and capitalization table.
BoardSuite was created to mitigate risk by providing directors, officers and shareholders a simple yet powerful solution to address their responsibilities surrounding good governance and compliance, thus allowing them to devote more time towards helping their organizations improve overall business performance.
Award Winning Company
BoardSuite has received notable recognition within the online industry for its achievements. In March 2011, BoardSuite was selected as one of the Top 15 Companies to watch by AlwaysOn OnDemand. In July 2009, BoardSuite was chosen as one of Canada's leading Web 2.0 pioneers at the PICK20 Awards (the only national listing of Canada's up and coming Web 2.0 pioneers). In August 2009, BoardSuite was named by IDC (International Data Corporation) as one of Canada's Top Cloud Computing Solutions to Watch, calling it a "disruptive innovation" in the board portal industry.

Evaluating Multiethnic Materials.
Garcia, Jesus
The problem of identifying good ethnic studies materials is a result of the large amount of materials produced in the 1960s and of the currently renewed interest in ethnic studies. Four types of materials are available to elementary classroom teachers: ethnic information, single-ethnic approaches, minority or European-ethnic approaches, and multiethnic approaches. Ethnic information materials highlight a certain group's achievements. Although designed for enrichment purposes, this material occasionally distorts the image of the targeted group. Materials include coloring books, calendars, folk tales, and family history projects. Single-ethnic approaches include group histories written from an ethnic perspective. However, groups are often portrayed from a "problems perspective" and in contrast to white Americans. Learning packets such as "Chinese Americans Past and Present" (Association of Chinese Teachers, San Francisco) and "An Album of Jews in America" (Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, New York) are examples. Minority or European-ethnic approaches present experiences of more than one ethnic group and usually outline the uniqueness and similarities among groups. However, separateness is often given greater emphasis. Examples are the filmstrips "American Children" (Children's Book and Music Center, Los Angeles) and "The Toymaker" (Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith). Multiethnic approaches present a realistic and balanced view of groups. The aim is to present the pluralistic nature of society as positive. Two learning kits are "Ethnic Heritage: A Living Mosaic" (J.C. Penney Company, New York) and "Multicultural Understanding" (Riverside Unified School District, California). The process employed when selecting any ethnic materials is similar to the one used when selecting other materials: the teacher must match the learner with the appropriate materials. (KC)

A Polish rickshaw company is experiencing massive success in the UK market. But while they are loved by tourists, cab drivers loath them
A Polish rickshaw company is experiencing massive success in the UK market. But while they are loved by tourists, cab drivers loath them.
Hundreds of environmentally-friendly rickshaws take to the streets. This green alternative transport is hated by London's black cab drivers but liked by the tourists.
Many of the hundreds of rickshaws that ply the streets belong to the Traditional Rickshaw Company, and are run and owned by Polish. In fact, it has taken just a handful of seasons for the Polish pedicab drivers to conquer the market. The lucrative factor that works for these rickshaws, is that the passengers get to sit in the front.
Co-owner of Traditional Rickshaw company, Tomasz Mysko states, "In Poland since the second war time (World War II), we traditionally had the rickshaws with the passengers at the front. We decided to do this and this was like a spot on idea."
Since they were introduced in 1998, it has all way long been a hard slog for the pedicab industry.
Currently, the London rickshaws are unregulated. But there is an important High Court verdict on licensing coming soon.
Chris Smallwood represents a competing pedicab company, Bugbugs, and he is keen on effective regulation. As Smallwood quotes, "Transport for London have looked at the various models of pedicab and they have decided very firmly, that they will only allow pedicabs on the street, where the passenger are behind the rider. As they feel that with the passenger in the front of the rider, the pedicabs make for an extreme vulnerable mode of transport, and it makes the pedicab unsafe too. So if there is some hard breaking, then the passenger will be tipped out, and the rider will come out over the top."
Also critical are the cabbies, which took the rickshaw industry, to court a few years ago over competition worries. Black cab owner, Dennis Saunders observes, "Well the rickshaw drivers in London are causing mayhem. They are a danger to other road users and passengers. I have actually seen a driving around a congested Hide Park corner, a rickshaw with a girl in the back with a new-born baby in her arms. There are no restraints attached to these rickshaws. The London Taxi Driver Association crash tested a rickshaw and all the three crash tests done, have come out with multiple injuries and death."
London's transport authority points out, the safety of rickshaws will be assessed, once the High Court ruling on licensing is in place.
Though by the looks of it, the rickshaws prove to be slow mode of transport but given London's congested traffic - travelling by rickshaw along some of the city's narrow streets, could actually be a faster alternative.
A popular rickshaw route is from Covent garden to Mayfair. It takes one approximately 15 minutes in a car whereas in a rickshaw, the same distance can be covered in just only ten minutes.
The next stop is United States for these Polish rickshaws. The business is doing so well in London, that it might soon extend its operations to Las Vegas or maybe Southern Europe.

Data Breaches: Ripples Turn to Waves for Merchants Downstream
By Karisse Hendrick, Editor-at-Large, CardNotPresent.com
More than ever before, headlines naming large U.S. retailers as victims of a data breach have been topping the news. As both consumers and as professionals in the card-security industry, we all hold our breath when a new breach is announced. But, the media does not focus its attention on the after-effects of a breach, and how the data that is stolen is used for financial gain. Although credit-card numbers often are used to create counterfeit cards, fraud patterns in the wake of breaches indicate stolen data also is used at card-not-present merchants. In order to be prepared for millions of pieces of fraudulently obtained identifying data deluging your Websites and call centers, it is important to acknowledge and be aware of the impacts to your business this breached data has on the incoming fraud.
Not all attacks are yielding credit card numbers. If that information is not included in the data compromised in an intrusion, it is easy for other businesses to assume there is no threat to their bottom line. In our new reality, however, that is unfortunately not true. Exposed e-mail addresses, usernames and passwords can be just as damaging (if not more) to your business. The way fraud will present itself to your business is dependent on the actual data that was stolen. To get you thinking about this, we have compiled examples of how data from recent breaches may be impacting your business.
Credit Cards
Credit-card numbers, once they have been identified as compromised, are the easiest change both consumers and issuers can make to head off fraud. There will always be a span of time, however, between the breach and when the cardholder and/or issuing bank are made aware of it. Following a breach that compromised just credit-card numbers, merchants might see primarily reshipping schemes or what is known as "clean fraud." Clean fraud is straightforward fraud many merchants experience every day, using a stolen credit card with no other attack method.
In this new age of fraud, depending on indicators such as AVS (Address Verification Service) match, shipping address and IP address location are not going to be very effective. Over the last year, it has been reported that credit-card numbers are being bundled into groups based on location to assist fraudsters in masking fraudulent orders. For instance, a fraudster in Southern California may purchase a bundle of credit cards with billing addresses (or that were used in locations) near them, so the shipping address and/or IP address are near the billing address, making an order appear legitimate. Some tools that may be effective in combating this fraud type are advanced fraud screening and case management tools, device identification (to alert you if more than one credit card is being used on a specific device) and risk-based authentication such as 3DSecure and Verified by Visa.
E-Mail Addresses
From a consumer perspective, almost no one is willing to change an e-mail address, which, in some ways, makes the compromise of e-mail addresses worse than that of credit cards. While "cashing out" on this data is not as quick or simple as credit cards, cybercriminals have a longer timeframe to do so, and the effort is not too high in getting to a payout. The primary way fraudsters turn e-mail addresses into money is through phishing schemes. While it's an old trick, and most consumers are on the lookout for the more obvious ones, it still works. If the phishing scam is asking the consumer for a monetary return (ex: kidnapping/ransom hoax, African lottery, etc.), it has little impact on a merchant. However, some of the most effective scams are the ones impersonating a legitimate company. Most times, a fake email will ask the consumer to log in to their account to make a required change (ironically, most advise consumers this is because the account has been compromised). This then provides the fraudster with the consumer's username and password, which they typically use for multiple merchants. So, even if the phishing e-mail is not impersonating your company, you could still become a victim. In addition to enabling account takeovers, phishing schemes also greatly impact the brand of the company that it is fraudulently represented. Regardless of the fact that they were unauthorized, consumers still associate the scam e-mails with the brand it is impersonating. These also result in higher call volume to customer support centers to either "claim a prize" or find out if the e-mail was legitimate.
Currently, the best way to prevent phishing scams from victimizing your consumers is to continue to educate them on the difference between an e-mail from you and a possible phishing e-mail. What are some things you will never send to your customers? Which e-mail address and domain name will you be using for e-mail communications? Unfortunately, relying on consumers is not a foolproof tactic, so also taking precautions against account takeover attempts are also important (covered in the next section).
E-mails/Usernames + Passwords
Our discussions with merchants seem to indicate the combination of e-mail addresses or usernames and passwords being compromised has had the biggest impact on card-not-present fraud. One gaming merchant once attributed a 30 percent increase in account-takeover fraud over a four-month period to a single breach of this information. The premise is simple. If a consumer has a specific username and password combination for one Website, they most likely will use this at others. Fraudsters will test this at Websites selling similar items, or at popular companies, where most consumers have accounts. Using these credentials, they then have access to stored payment methods. In addition, several merchants are seeing account takeovers occur solely to access a legacy account, with fraudsters knowing that new accounts are the most scrutinized by standard fraud tools. Beyond the impact this type of fraud has on your business, it also can impact your legitimate consumer, either through having their card-on-file stolen or credits on the account used, along with a feeling of insecurity on your site.
Attacks of this nature are still growing and morphing as tools are introduced to stop it. Some merchants have found it effective to require CVV2 re-entry on stored-value cards, but only when stored cards are the target. Others have implemented a required password update upon login or educate their consumers on the importance of password diversity in creative ways, as well as on the account-creation page. Device identification, biometrics and similar tools that provide real-time behavior analytics track the device as opposed to a user, to identify when multiple orders are placed on one device and to authenticate a user. There never will be a single solution that works for everyone, and fraud tools or systems should be determined based on your business model, vertical and order volume, in addition to the type of fraud you are experiencing. These suggestions are based on what has worked for some merchants and shouldn't be considered an exhaustive list .
Data breaches are generating an ever-increasing mountain of valuable information for fraudsters and different bits are being used in different ways. Every breach, no matter the extent or the type of information that was illegally obtained, will impact merchants downstream. Knowing the source and type of the data infiltrating the black market will help you identify which tools and processes to invest and how to leverage them to protect your business.

Vermicomposting is using earthworms to break down compostable materials instead of leaving it to mother nature. The worms eat the leftovers and as it passes through their body leaving behind "casings" which are nutrient rich and make excellent soil.
Make sure your worms have everything they need. By this, I mean don't just open the top of your compost heap and dump worms on top then expect them to be happy and start munching their way through your waste. Add them into the middle of your pile gently and make sure the compost or materials already in place are well mixed and ventilated. There should be plenty of room for your worms to wriggle about in.
Your heap should be at least eight to twelve inches deep and the surround of your bin should be made from wood or a hard wearing material.
Add in bedding material that is damp but not wet. Worms like a home that is about 75 per cent water and the rest waste. This doesn't mean you can dump gallons of water on your compost heap and hope for the best, but definitely worth remembering in the summer that you have living creatures in your compost and they would like some moisture. The best sort of bedding material is shredded newspaper or cardboard. Worms also don't like lots of noise or vibrations, if you can put your bin in an area that is quieter and away from traffic noise or other nuisances.
You should also add gritty materials like sand and crushed eggshells to your compost heap as this helps the toothless worms break down the composting materials. And be sure to wear some really good gardening gloves to prevent the spread of dirt, germs, and things like E.coli or salmonella.
Added features on some composters include trays which separate out the castings from the compost materials and even a little tray to collect "worm tea" which is the liquid left behind after vermicomposting. These are well worth investing in if you can as they make the process much lower maintenance.
Location – Indoor
First thing to think about is if you have the space and where you are going to store your bin. If you want it to be inside your home, think about where it will go and whether you want it to be tucked away or part of the furniture and decor. If it is going to be on display, it might be worth investing in a well designed and attractive looking bin to make sure it fits into your home. Also, worth thinking about is odor. An indoor composter will smell a little it as the worms do their thing but you can get models with odor control to lessen this effect.
Location – Outdoor
Outdoors, you want to make sure the bin you choose suits the size and shape of your garden. If you want it to blend in, choose a dark green model and perhaps plant some shrubs around it or a black version tucked into a nook or corner will melt out of sight.
Material is also very important when you're investing in an outside bin. As most of us don't want the hassle of trying to move a full compost bin (complete with worms!) into the house or garage through the winter months, finding a sturdy bin that will survive extremes of temperatures is really important. Choose a strong plastic or resin that is specifically designed to withstand freezing or heat to make sure your bin is ok to stay outside all year round.
Another thing which really helps worms get to work is ventilation. Make sure your compost bin has holes running through it or a domed lid to encourage ventilation and ensure your little worms are getting enough air.
Added Features such as trays
Added features on some composters include trays which separate out the castings from the compost materials and even a little tray to collect "worm tea" which is the liquid left behind after vermicomposting. These are well worth investing in if you can as they make the process much lower maintenance.
How Many Worms Will I Need?
A good rule of thumb is to get about 2,000 worms for every pound of food waste. As 2,000 worms weighs about two pounds, try to have around half the amount of worms for your waste products. If you start out with a small amount of worms, you can just add less to your bin until they increase and you can add more.

Hello Beer World
Thursday, October 26, 2006
10/24/06 Harvest 2, Winter 4
Deschutes "Hop Trip"
One of the best harvest ales around. Made with plenty of fresh Willamette valley hop, this Pale ale pours a golden amber color and has the aroma and flavor of lemon, flowers, and just a touch of grass. Not too bitter but with tons of hop flavor and aroma. A+
*** Winter Ales Round 4 ***
Golden Valley "Tannin Bomb"
Now to me, this is what winter beers are all about. Out of all the winter beers I look forward to this one the most. It has a big malty fruity flavor that just does it for me. Not too hoppy, a light bitterness to finish well but nothing overpowering. The 8% alcohol is smooth but will warm the cockles of your heart. Best served only slightly chilled so as to bring out the smooth malt and play that against the fruity character. I always age a six-pack or so every year, this year I'm going for a case. This beer actually ages very well. On first sip you might not think that a beer like this can go long term but after about 8 months the malt starts to intensify and instead of it playing against the fruit character, it actually starts to accentuate the fruit and you end up with a more intense beer. I have to give props to Golden Valley for producing a winter beer like no other.
New Belgium "2 Below"
Dark amber in color, this beer pours with a ¼ inch creamy head. Nice resiny pine hop aroma. The flavor is malty nutty with earthy tones a touch of fruit and the finish dry and bitter.
Sierra Nevada "Celebration"
Copper in color with a thin head and a big floral hop aroma. The flavor is lightly of caramel / crystal malt. The hop flavor is bitter with a grassy citrusy flavor. This classic west coast brew is a sure sign of the happy holidays to come.
Scaldis "Prestige"
WOW!!! What a treat. This oaked Belgian beauty has it all going on. Great aroma, and flavor, strong in alcohol and a gorgeous package. It pours orange/amber in color with a big head despite it 13%. The aroma is big with fruity apple, cognac, vanilla, and a floral perfume. The flavor is amazingly complex. Sweet and malty, woody with a bit of tannin from the barrel aging. Creamy up front and dry in the finish the herbal / minty hops are low but in there someplace. Be forewarned that this indulgence does come at a price but a rare delicacy like this is worth it.
De Proef "Flemish Primitive (Pinhead)"
Copper /red in color with an ample head, this beer has a tart aroma with earthy hops. The flavor has a touch of brett and a light sour lemony character. The light body and prickly carbonation fits well and makes for a rather refreshing brew.
*** Back In Stock ***
Victory "Storm King"
This opaque black stout pours at a substantial 9% with coffee and cascade hop aroma. The flavor is of bittersweet chocolate, espresso, fig, and toast. More hops on this one than most stouts of this caliber but it works well and keeps it from getting too sticky. This one is a fun assault on your tongue from both the hop and malt side.
De Proef "Flemish Primitive (Surly Bird)"
The reason the name is in parentheses is that there is no name title, just a scene from a Hieronymus Bosch painting. Brewed with Brettanomyces, this is one of those wonderfully funky sour Belgian Ales. A yellow / light golden color with a massive rocky head that persists for some time. I used a German Weisse glass and still had problems. Earthy acidic aroma that moved into a lightly fruity, cirtusy flavor with a touch of sweetness and dry peppery finish.
Golden Valley "IPA VS Brut"
This deep copper IPA was aged in oak barrels at the Argyle winery. It was also put through the Methode de Champenoise (the way they make Champagne). Sort of a domestic IPA version of the Bosteel's Deus. The aroma is slightly woody with fruity hops. The cork and wire-basket bottle opens with a loud pop, has good carbonation but little head. The flavor is of piney, citrusy hop bitterness with a ting of Chardonnay and lightly malty in the finish.
Bosteels "Deus"
This is by far the most elegant beer I have ever seen (or tasted). This beer is a bottle-conditioned triple that goes through the Champagne method (riddling, disgorging, and dosing). What does that mean to you? All of the complex flavors of a well aged triple, small tight dense head, crystal clear without any filtering. Pale straw in color, spicy / gingery aroma and a sweet tropical fruity flavor with hints of clove and cinnamon spice. It is more expensive due to the extra man power put into it but it is a great treat for the holiday season.
10/21/06 Winter Beers Round 3
*** Winter Beers ROUND 3 ***
North Coast "Brother Thelonious"
This brew is a fundraiser for the Thelonious Monk Institute of Jazz. This 9% beauty is very good Belgian Abbey style ale and is burgundy in color with a tint of brown. Its aroma is caramel with plum and raisin tone. The flavor is a bit sweet with bready, malty character up front. It then moves into a big dark fruit with a touch of spice. The 9% is hidden well and finished dry with a light bitter, vinous quality. I plan to put some of this down as I think it has some tremendous ageing potential.
Pyramid "Snow Cap"
This has always been one of those seasonal beers that I really look forward to. The balance between the roasty malt and the east Kent Golding hops is superb. Its 7% is respectable but not so high that you couldn't have a few. All in all a great NW winter ale.
Great Divide "Hibernation Ale"
This "Old Ale" is brewed in July and aged until October. This gives it a deep malty smooth character with big roasty tones and a well-developed and complex hop presence due to the aging and subsequent dry hopping.
Baladin "Noel"
Noel is an ale with an incredible complexity of aromas: flowery of rose, hint of dried fruits, caramel tasting, banana, cherry, plum, toffee, cocoa, licorice and peppery notes. Excellent with black chocolate, a glass of Noel is perfect for a special night.
*** Back In Stock ***
Baladin "Super"
This Belgain Triple style ale pours dark amber colored beer with good clarity. Its aroma is of warm flowers, apricot, banana and bitter almonds. Similar flavors of apricot, almond cake, citrus fruits, and rich malt come through strongly with a dry, tangy finish.
Baladin "Nora"
This special brew has been concocted from an ancient Egyptian recipe. Unmalted kamut, ginger, myrrh, and orange peel are used to represent the balancing spices of ancient times. The myrrh provides the bittering that allows Teo to mostly forgo the use of hops. The aroma has notes of violets, roses, cyclamen and citrus fruits. Full-bodied with an intense taste in which citrus aroma contrasts pleasantly the balsamic (mentholated) overtone. It finishes with tones of bitter resins.
Baladin "Wayan"
Wayan is made of 17 different ingredients, barley, wheat, spelt, oats, rye, different types of hops & many different spices besides coriander. The balance & bitterness is by a high degree provided by those many spices some of which are very very unusual in brewing. This quite unusual combination of spices & herbs greatly impacts the finish, which again is very different from "regular saison-style ales".
10/19/06 First Havest Ale
This 55 IBU Pale ale is a perfect copper color and pours with plenty of carbonation but thin head. Made with "WET" hops, not dried like most hops. The hops are picked and overnighted to Denver where they make this bitter, grassy, citrusy brew. Malt only has a small if nonexistence part in this totally hop driven brew. If you're not a hophead don't bother, if you are, than snatch up this bitter beauty while it lasts.
Boulder Beer "Killer Penguin"
What bird can not fly AND can not walk?? It is any penguin that finishes a bottle of this by himself. The Killer Penguin is a fine, limited release Barley Wine from Boulder Brewing Company. The color is a red / brown tone and pours with a tight head. The aroma is malty with caramel, toffee, and molasses tones. The flavor is caramel with tropical fruity notes and a touch of brown sugar. It has a great package and I think some aging will lower the sweeter tones and bring the fruity esters forward.
Pike "XXXXX Extra Stout"
The color is darkest brown bordering on true black. The head is big and dark tan. The aroma is roasty with a whiff of grass and flower hops. The body is thick and the flavor is roasty with molasses and coffee. This is one big stout without being too sweet. The dark roasted malt down plays against the light sweetness and makes for one massive stout.
Hale's "Wee Heavy"
This Wee Heavy has great flavor but is a bit more on the North West side of the style if you know what I mean. Nice brown color and a malty aroma with caramel tones that befits a Wee Heavy. The hops come in late in the aroma and flavor and provide a light flowery piney hit to the brew that marks its origins as being from the northwest.
10/12/06 Winter Beers Round 2
Alaskan "Smoked Porter 2006"
This is a dark rich porter that is made with alder smoked malt. It is rich flavorful and intense. It ages very well and will continue to mellow and increase in complexity for some time. For those of you who love the hops, you will probably like it better young, for the rest of us aging it for a year or two smoothes and mellows it.
Alaskan "Winter Ale"
Their winter seasonal is an ale brewed with spruce tips. The spruce gives the beer a deliciously unique sour/bitterness. Not as rich and malty as most winters but definitely one of the most unique. Golden in color with a nice medium body, it is quite refreshing.
Full Sail "Wassail"
Wassail is dark brown / mahogany in color. It pours with a medium head but it settles down to a thin layer. Rich with a malty fruity character and a light hop finish. It seems less hoppy this year, accentuating more of the malt. An improvement to my tongue.
Rogue "Santa's Private Reserve"
Yes, its true, if Santa was going to knock back a pint it would be one of these. Deep garnet in color it pours with a rather thin head. The aroma is mainly of piney resinous hop with a little crystal malt. The flavor is lightly bready, caramel malt with plenty of piney hop bitterness (44 IBU). Every year I try and convince my kids that Santa is lactose intolerant and would much rather have a beer like this with his cookies then a pint of 2%.
** Now Available Online ***
St. Bernardus "Pater 6"
This wonderful Abbey ale is beep brown / red in color. Ample, persistent head with an aroma of chocolate, caramel, and dark fruit. The flavor is big plum and toffee. Another fine Bernardus brew.
St. Bernardus "Witbier"
Belgian wheat beer spiced with orange and coriander. St. Bernardus Wit has more body and a smoother texture than any other witbier. This provides a beer that is not only extremely flavorful but is also very refreshing.
St Bernardus "Sampler Pack"
This brewery used to brew the beer for the Monks at Saint Sixtus. Although they no longer have a business relationship with the Trappist monks, they still make an outstanding lineup of beers. Beers that are made in the Trappist style (big, smooth and fruity) but are not made by Trappist monks are referred to as Abbey Ales. When looking at Abbey Ales there is none finer than St. Bernardus. This sampler includes three each of their Abt12, 8, 6 and Witbier and a 5% discount but. This makes a great introduction to Abbey Ales, Belgian beers in general or a great gift of any beer lover.
October 6th Winter Beers Round 1
First out of the gate with many more yet to come.
Deschutes "Jubel Ale"
Another yearly fav of mine. Dark brown in color, dark malt aromas along with chocolate and caramel. Flavors dominated by roasty malt, chocolate and bitter sweet tones. Very good, as usual. Early in the release (10/6 as I'm writing this) the hops are bright and have a pine / juniper flavor. This mellows out as the season progresses.
Dick's "Double Diamond"
This malty, roasty beer is just what you need on these colder nights. Made with Munich, caramel, and roasted barley along with a touch of wheat makes for a dark brown rich winter ale. They throw in a healthy does of hops to pull it all together into a well-balanced winter warmer.
Anderson Valley "Winter Solstice"
Full body with a smooth mouth-feel, caramel malt sweetness with a fruity ester flavor. Nice spicy hop flavor without being overdone. It's a great addition to our winter beer lineup.
Dogfish Head "Punkin Ale"
A full-bodied, spiced brown ale brewed with real pumpkins, cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar. Dogfish Head Punkin' Ale is named after the annual Punkin' Chunkin Festival held near Lewes, Delaware the weekend after Halloween.
Dogfish Head "Midas Touch"
Is it beer? Is it a mead? Is it wine? All I know is it is a wild and crazy historical brew. A brew based on the analysis done on the remnants found in the cup of King Midas himself. It has great flavor, great aroma and a great story that can be found at http://www.dogfish.com/beer/midas.cfm. Try it yourself and be Touched. 9%
October 3rd
St. Bernardus "Abt 12 Special Edition"
Year 2006 marks the 60th Anniversary of the brewery St. Bernard. The brewery was established in 1946 with a sole purpose to commercially brew St. Sixtus Trappist Abbey ales until 1992, when their agreement ended.
St. Bernardus Abt 12 is still made according to the same original recipe from 1946 and is recognized as one of the best ales in the world. This Special Edition of Abt 12 (11% abv) will be available in an attractive metal container and was brewed for that occasion by brew master Bert Van Hecke. Bert is paying tribute not only to the brewery, but also to the hop growers from Poperinge region of West Flanders by using their Challenger and Golding hops together with black, amber, Munich and pale ale malts. A perfect gift for anyone who loves beer.
Jerome "Cerveza Negra"
This Argentinean beauty is an excellent Schwarz bier style. Light in body, black malt roastiness, and a light silky caramel. It is also brewed with Patagonian Cascade hops.
Jerome "Cerveza Roja"
This imported amber goes down smooth with a light crystal malt flavor and a touch of bitterness at the finish.
Jerome "Cerveza Rubia"
Golden in color this beer has a nice floral hop character and is light on the malt without being sweet.
Jerome "Cerveza Diablo"
A little stronger than its brothers. This amber has more malt than the Roja, bigger body and a smother finish.
Avery "Samael's Oak-aged Ale"
Holly Crap!!!!! This is one powerful, flavorful, sneak up behind you and hit you in the back of the head kind of beer. Big, big malt like an English Old ale and fruity esters like a Belgian. At 14.5% it is a behemoth that should be server well chilled and enjoyed slowly...with a friend....while sitting down. Not even "The Beast" could take on "Samael". A+++ IMHO.

Jargon is a term which identifies technical language used by a specific industry among professionals in that industry. Understanding Jargon is vital when learning about services that an organization offers. This holds true for most industries, but especially so when looking to hire a photographer. In this 4 part series we will look at Photography Jargon and explore the different things this Jargon refers to and how it applies to your photo session.
This time of year couples are looking to gift their special someone with something that is not only memorable but embodies what they feel towards that individual and relays that unique connection that they share. Often times the perfect gift is not just a thing, but comes with an unspoken promise of what they are willing to do for that person. Boudoir, or sensual photographic images, are the perfect gift for most people, as they incorporate all the above criteria for Valentine Gifting. Unfortunately, few if any of us have that perfect Marilyn Monroe figure that we would like. That is where enhancements come in handy. An enhancement is anything that is done to your images (outside of basic editing) to make them better or stylize them to accomplish a certain look, feel or to match a specific theme.
Enhancement options can seem confusing for the subject who is unaware of what options they have. A few examples of basic enhancements include Duo-toning such as Sepia or Black and White, Vignettes (a soft colored shadowing around the outside of image), Softening, Borders, Text inclusion, and Blemish Removal. Of course, there are hundreds of others, but these are the most requested and utilized Enhancement Services in the Photographic Industry.
Uses for enhancements are seemingly as varied as the options are themselves. Borders and text allow a person to incorporate a theme or specific thought into a seemingly generic image. Blemishes are on you, but they should not be seen as a part of you. Softening and Blemish Removal help an individual bring attention to the best parts of the photograph and allow them to put their best foot forward by removing unwanted items such as acne, wrinkles, and rosacea. Vignettes and Duo-toning are a great way to add a sense of whimsy to an image or create a classic (old-time) look that plain colored images often fall short of. Any enhancement should be used towards a purpose. They should all make the image more personalized and improve the overall emotional impact an image has on the viewer.
No one enhancement is going to be perfect for all images or all subjects. Talk to your photographer about what you want out of a session before you start. Enhancements are most effective when the original shot is taken with the effect in mind. With all today's modern technology anything is truly possible. If you don't like the way your thighs look, no problem! A good Editing Professional can give you the figure you want without the sweat and hours in the gym. When applied correctly enhancements are a great way to take your pictures over the top and, while this is great any time of the year, it is especially important for Boudoir pictures! No matter who your Valentine is give your loved one the gift of YOU with great enhanced images from Southern Moon Photography, LLC!
Be sure to look for your next Edition of this Newsletter to find out about more Photography Jargon. The next edition will discuss the difference between Sheets and Prints.

Thinking Outside The Box
One of the remaining 'Occupy' protestors, this man had taken up residence on The High Line, New York's elevated skypark in the Meatpacking / Chelsea district. His objective was to get passers-by to 'think outside the box', whilst he remained in his.
The man pictured here is Mr David Everitt-Carlson. His official website has this thought-provoking poem by Mr Vincent J Tomeo –
What can an artist do with a cardboard box occupying Wall Street?
He can put things into the box
He can think outside the box
The box can become a work of art
The box can become a sign of protest
He can occupy the box..
Sometimes, the simplest actions can have profound effects.

New Avengers: Infinity War promo art has given us perhaps our best look yet at Proxima Midnight, a member of Thanos' Black Order.
We currently know very little about the role of the Black Order in Infinity War, not even which actors have been cast as the evil lieutenants. In the comics, Proxima Midnight is arguably Thanos' greatest warrior, with a spear whose blades are made from a star that can cut through any substance.
Check out the promo art below:
New Infinity War Promo art with a new look at Proxima Midnight and Nomad from marvelstudios
It's tough to tell who is under that mask. Who do you think could be playing Proxima? Let us know in the comments!
Directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, the film stars Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Bettany, Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel, Pom Klementieff, Karen Gillan, Sean Gunn, Benedict Cumberbatch, Tom Holland, Sebastian Stan, Chadwick Boseman, Benedict Wong, Tom Hiddleston, Benicio Del Toro, Danai Gurira and Josh Brolin. Here's the official plot synopsis:
As the team and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
Avengers: Infinity War hits theaters on May 4, 2018.

10 Characters That Need To Be Avengers In Marvel's Phase Four
Avengers: Infinity War arrives this year, and will be followed by a currently untitled fourth Avengers film that will close off Phase 3 and will mark a new chapter in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. In Phase 4 it is safe to say audiences will meet a new roster of the Avengers.
Iron Man, Thor, and Captain America have been the pillars of the Marvel Cinematic Universe since its inception, as their individual films have guided lead audiences into each Avengers film. But with the next two Avengers film it is safe to say the curtain will set for those three. That means the Avengers as audiences know them will change dramatically. This means the team will need some new members, ones that will make a big impression to fill the shoes of their predecessors.
While the status of other founding members like the Hulk, Black Widow, Hawkeye and more up in the air right now, part of the fun in the Avengers comics is the ever-changing roster. The latest roster for the Avengers needs to make a statement. This isn't the same old Avengers, this is the beginning of a new chapter. Some characters should be upgraded, others will take center stage as the new tentpole franchises, and the Avengers will be new.
Here are the ten characters that should make up the roster for Marvel's New Avengers. Click Next to get started!

As part of our advanced work, members are encouraged to teach others what they know.This way we all benefit from others in our group.

The two men charged in connection with Tuesday morning's murder of a Hannibal gas station employee will have a preliminary hearing on October 28.
Family members filled courtroom seats at the Marion County Circuit Court Friday.Gary James Wiltermood III and Michael Studer made their first appearance, via video conferencing, on a laptop before Judge John Jackson.
Both men are each charged with second-degree murder in connection with the killing of 61-year-old Adrienne Arnett. Police say she was shot and killed at Abel's Quick Shop at 100 Shinn Ln. just before 4 a.m.
"The guy that supposedly pulled the trigger is my cousin, but I hope he gets what he deserves," Joseph Elzea said. "For anybody who innocently gets killed like that, it's not right. Nobody deserves to have their life taken like that."
"Regardless of him being my family, I hope he gets what he deserves," Elzea added.
Click here to find out what Wiltermood said happened in the hours surrounding Arnett's death and who he says was with him.
No other charges are filed in this case and the prosecutor declined to comment when asked if he plans on charging anyone else in connection with the murder.

Prior to becoming involved with RESAAS, Mr. Rossiter was the Managing Director of Lightmaker, an award-winning global digital agency, where he successfully ran the company's Vancouver office following a four-year stint at its UK headquarters. While at Lightmaker, Mr. Rossiter became known for bringing Flash mobile solutions to mass markets for the likes of Adobe, Nokia and Samsung; had the opportunity to consult on-site with those corporations and more across North America, Europe and Asia; and led teams in the scoping, design and successful implementation of digital solutions for multiple verticals.
Mr. Rossiter has a vast array of experience in the management and delivery of digital solutions across the web, desktop and mobile fields, and has been recognized as a subject matter expert in accessible design, particularly in relation to introducing advanced capabilities to Rich Internet Applications. Outside of RESAAS, he serves as a director of the Vancouver-based Asian Real Estate Association of America and is a member of the National Association of REALTORS®, the trade association representing the real estate industry in the United States.
"Tom has been my most valued partner from day one at RESAAS -- he is a visionary and passionate leader who has contributed a great deal to RESAAS's growth and success over the years. I couldn't be more proud and excited for him to assume the CEO role and lead the company into its next phase of development, growth and expansion," commented Cory Brandolini, the Chairman and outgoing Chief Executive Officer of RESAAS.
Despite stepping down from his position as Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Brandolini will continue to be actively involved day-to-day with RESAAS in his capacity as Chairman. The move will provide Mr. Brandolini, a former investment banker with 20+ years of experience at various securities firms, with the flexibility to focus on pursuing further corporate finance opportunities for the company while expanding relationships with members of the greater investment community and media throughout North America and abroad. This evolutionary change at the management level will benefit the company in both the short and long term by allowing Mr. Brandolini to devote more time to increasing RESAAS's profile and leveraging his extensive knowledge and contacts in the equity markets.

What a birthday gift – a book about you and to you from a Grandma who is a writer.
Cheryl Therrien, an author and blogger (grandmotherdiaries.com and geekgirlusa.com) who loves technology, decided to write a series of letters to her upcoming grandchild.
She published her book, Letters from Grandma: Before You Were Born, just weeks before the May 4, 2013 arrival of her new grandson.
She nicknamed her grandchild Sweetling.
She has already started a conspiracy with Sweetling to spoil him or her rotten, and to reveal his or her daddy's tricks, showing her delight at the thought of seeing them in the next generation.
"A gentle word of caution now, your father will no doubt know when you have something mischievous planned."
"Try not to think about it ahead of time and make it a spur-of-the-moment surprise."
"He will not tell you this, but he did the very same things you are thinking of doing now when he was your age."
"Where do you think those ideas come from anyway?"
"Yes. You are your father's child."
She also picked out an unusual gift for the parents-to-be, a rocking chair.
"I have consented to provide a rocking chair for your parents to use to rock you to sleep or whatever."
"OK. I offered and they consented."
With such a gift, Therrien is saying to the parents that she knows they will have many days and nights when only rocking will soothe the baby.
With such a gift, she gives them days and nights of closeness to that precious bundle.
With such a gift, she passes on the memories of being rocked by their parents.
When I was expecting my own first child (in those days you never knew the gender until they were born), I found an old rocking chair, stripped it and refinished it, in anticipation.
My mother-in-law made a cushion for it and my father-in-law crafted a replacement spindle in his workshop for one that was missing.
With such a gift, the torch is being passed.
In addition to telling her soon-to-be grandson, whose gender she didn't know when she started writing the letters, that he was loved already, she puts her advice to her new grandchild in values she wants him to learn:
- All things are possible
- You are loved
- Pay attention to your health throughout your life
- Take time to enjoy life.
Appreciate Your Parents
Though this letter is written to remind her grandchild-to-be to appreciate what is right in front of them, the same sentiment applies from parents to their adult children.
"[Your parents] know they cannot protect you from all the bad things that can happen in life, but they will be there to help you get through them."
Make Your Own Choices
Anticipating the many voices of advice that children and then, adult children hear, Therrien tries to arm her grandchild to trust its own inner voice.
"When you are young you want nothing more than to make all your decisions yourself."
"By the time you are ready to make all your decisions for yourself you will want someone to give you advice."
"That's when you have to listen to what people have to say and then make the decision that is best for you."
Looking Ahead
Looking forward to the time when that little grandchild is snuggled in her lap to be read to by a grandma who loves to read and loves to write, Therrien advises her grandchild:
"I think this is enough for a first letter."
"Yes. There will be more."
"Yes. You have to read them when you are old enough to read."
"That way you will know beyond a shadow of a doubt how much you were and are wanted and loved."

Seeing London for free??
Travelling can be expensive but if you know few tricks you can manage your finance properly.
Sure London is a very expensive city.
I would say next after Geneva was London which drained my pocket the most.
Everyone has her own limit so you should look into your own finance to know what you can afford and what you should just skip.
When I arrived in London Heathrow Airport, I immediately bought a sim card at a machine in the arrival hall for my husband.
It is cheaper than roaming.
That is because he has to be able to stay connected to work in Malaysia.
You can pay as low as £5-10 and use cards for payment.
Rate for pounds to Ringgit is £1=RM 5.40
So everything you will convert in your head to avoid overspending.
Then, I bought Oyster card for hubby and me.
Each card has to be depositted for £5 and you will get back once you return the Oyster cardbefore you leave.
I chose Oyster because it doesn't limit your days of travelling.
If you travel less than the amount you topped up, you can use more for the next day instead of buying for example 3 days card or 5 days card.
Oyster card still have a maximum cap for a day.
It was if I am not mistaken £8 something.
Beware that one trip on a metro will cost you £2.20 which equals to RM 12.
What to do, it is London.
Europe is cheaper.
Previously I reserved a Hotel in the city.
It was Hilton Kensington Hotel.
Despite the name, it has its flaws.
The room wasn't that big but it is big enough for London.
An expensive city will have high rate per square feet so the room should be small.
The price was RM 2400.
The good thing was that it will be in the middle of the city and some things will be closer but as London is a huge city, you will have to travel a lot to most of the other attraction sites.
I wonder if it was worth it?
It is far from Heathrow Airport and Luton Airport, which means I would have to take a taxi.
2 taxis for arrival and depart to later will cost me more than £100 which will be more than RM 500.
Now, what if I get a place still near London city with a direct train to the city and from Heathrow Airport.
Which means, I can just use a train from Heathrow directly to my accommodation.
After days of searching, contemplating, I found one townhouse in Ealing through airbnb.
It can be reached directly through Picadilly line from Heathrow and stop at the Acton Station.
Acton Station has an elevator for strollers and wheelchair.
That was an advantage for us.
It takes about less than 5 minutes walk to the townhouse from Acton Station.
I have saved my first cab and used Oyster card instead £2.20
Owh, the cost of stay in this rented room in Stewart's townhouse was RM 1600.
So I cancelled Hilton and chose this.
Saved RM 800.
The townhouse was 3 storey, big and all white, English style.
Stewart and his wife, little girl lived on the 3rd floor.
We got the second floor to ourselves.
Our room was big, neat, all white with a desktop, printer and office table, side table with reading lamps, baby cot, soft toys for Isabella, children's books, novels, maps and London guide book.
It was connected to a private spacious, clean and modern bathroom.
The room and bathroom was even bigger than the one I saw for Hilton.
We were very comfortable.
Every morning, I made porridge for Isabella using rice I bought from a store opposite the road.
I made breakfast for hubby and me.
So, one meal was saved.
We ate until we were full.
Got ourselves,cheese, breads and eggs for sandwiches.
Stewart and his wife was very gracious and helpful.
They were always ready to give advices and suggestions.
His wife even let Isabella used her little girl, Ishbel's prescribed cream when I told how Isabella's skin reacted to the cold weather.
From Acton town station to London central, it took us 15 minutes via Picadilly line direct to the centre.
No hassle.
Not all underground station has a lift but it is good to have our final stop, Acton Town Station, prepared for a stroller after a long exhausted day of exploring.
The groceries shopping for 5 days of breakfast was £10=RM 54 and you will have more than you can get in Malaysia.
Everyday, we spent £15-20 for food for both of us.
One dinner of falafel/kebab was £7/pp which makes it £14 for 2.
Lunch we would grab delicious halal samosa at the knightbridge underground station which costed £1.50 per piece. Grabbed 2 of them plus a hot chocolate.
Hot chocolate of £2.50.
Total of spending for food £19.50.
Though we didn't eat this everyday.
It is just an example to you.
I set it as £20 just as a guideline.
Which means there were days when we exceeded £5 or we used lesser than £20.
During my student days, I spent only £10 per day strictly.
I usually used less.
I was a student and money was tight.
Now, I don't have to make it that way. However, it is good to have guideline so that you can track your spending and not be surprised later by the balance in your bank.
If however, you wish to spend £15 for 2, I think that can be done as well.
Just eat the halal beef samosa 2 at one time and you will be full.
Even if you buy for dinner as well, you are still below the limit.
The samosa was tasty and filling.
I stayed for 4 days (groceries £10 + 4 days food £80+extra when I bought water and stuffs £10)
Oyster cards= £40/pp X 2 =£80=RM 432
Taxi to Luton airport on our final day £50=RM 270.
We have to be on our way by 4 a.m. so taxi is the best choice.
simcard £20. My silly husband chose the most expensive sim card when the last time I was in London, I bought for £10 only. It bugged me when this kind of things happened.
Total of RM 3031
The accommodation, I have paid before arrival, months before so I only used during my stay in London RM 1431.
But we did indulge ourselves with shopping and all which made the spending was more than this. We also bought Arsenal jersey for Isabella and hubby got himself Arsenal gilets. Since it is not related to the budget so I am not sharing here.
If you don't do shopping and don't buy souvenirs, you can definitely use less than RM 1300.
It depends on your finance.
RM 3031 plus without flight ticket for 4 full days and 1 half day is not that difficult to save.
I am not interested in museum, so I did enter any museums and save myself the entrance charge.
You can still see a lot of London by going through the city, streets, buildings and all, you won't even have enough time to see everything for free.
Of course the first rule is to have more than the amount required for emergency.

David Neligan
David Neligan (1899–1983), known by his soubriquet "The Spy in the Castle", was an important figure involved in the Irish War of Independence (1919–21) and subsequently became Director of Intelligence for the Irish Army after the Irish Civil War (1922–23).
Early life[edit]
David Neligan was born at Templeglantine, Limerick where his parents, David and Elizabeth Neligan, were primary school teachers. He was an accomplished hurler with his local Templeglantine GAA Club.
Against his father's wishes, Neligan joined the Dublin Metropolitan Police (DMP) in 1917, and was recruited into the G Division in 1919. In May 1920 Neligan's elder brother Maurice (1895–1920), an Irish Republican Army (IRA) member and friend of Michael Collins, persuaded him to resign from the DMP.
After his resignation Neligan returned to his native County Limerick. Shortly afterward his brother Maurice was killed in a motorcycle accident, near their home in Templeglantine. In the meantime Neligan received word from a family friend that Michael Collins wished to meet with him in Dublin. Collins persuaded Neligan to rejoin the DMP and provide information to the IRA. Along with Eamon Broy and James McNamara, he acted as a valuable agent for Collins and passed on reams of vital information.
In 1921 Collins ordered Neligan to let himself be recruited into MI5. He used this as an opportunity to memorise their passwords and the identities of their agents. All of this was passed on to Collins. After Broy and McNamara were dismissed in 1921, Neligan became Collins' most important mole in Dublin Castle.
Irish Civil War[edit]
On the outbreak of the Civil War in June 1922, Neligan joined the National Army in Islandbridge barracks with the rank of Commandant, and was attached to the Dublin Guard. He was involved in the seaborne assault on Fenit and spent the remainder of the war serving as a local intelligence officer operating between Ballymullen Barracks Tralee & Killarney. He has been accused of involvement in several atrocities including the Ballyseedy Massacre. However, Ernie O'Malley expressed doubts as to the evidence of this.[citation needed] In 1923 Neligan was posted to Dublin, where he was promoted to Colonel and succeeded Diarmuid O'Hegarty as National Army Director of Intelligence.
Later life[edit]
In 1924 Neligan handed over his post to the youthful Colonel Michael Joe Costello and took command of the DMP (which still continued as a force separate from the newly established Garda Síochána) with the rank of Chief Superintendent. The next year he transferred to the Garda when the two police forces were amalgamated, and was instrumental in the foundation of Garda Special Branch. When Éamon de Valera became head of government in 1932, his Republican followers demanded Neligan's dismissal. He was subsequently transferred to an equivalent post in the Civil Service.
Neligan drew pensions from the DMP, the British MI5, the Garda Síochána and the Irish Civil Service. He also received an 'Old IRA' pension through the Department of Defence.[1]

Leverkusen, Germany, 16-5-2014 — /EuropaWire/ — Bayer HealthCare has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Interventional device business to Boston Scientific. The total consideration for the transaction, including fees for transitional services, is $415 million (about EUR 300 million). The sale will include the AngioJet™ (thrombectomy) and Jetstream™ (atherectomy) systems, and the Fetch™2 Aspiration Catheter used in cardiology, radiology and peripheral vascular procedures. Closing of the transaction is subject to customary conditions, including relevant antitrust clearance, and is expected to occur in the second half of 2014.
"With this sale, our Medical Care division can concentrate on innovation and growth in Radiology and Diabetes Care where we already have a strong presence," said Dr. Olivier Brandicourt, CEO of Bayer HealthCare AG.
In Radiology, Bayer HealthCare is the global leader in contrast-enhanced diagnostic imaging equipment, contrast agents and Informatics for Total Dose Management (contrast and radiation). In Diabetes Care, Bayer is also a technological leader in blood glucose monitoring systems, lancing devices and diabetes management software.
"We are confident that the planned sale of AngioJet, Jetstream and Fetch2 is a positive step for the long-term sustainability of these products given Boston Scientific's strong position in devices for peripheral and cardiovascular diseases," added Alan Main, President of Bayer HealthCare's Medical Care Division and Member of the Bayer HealthCare Executive Committee.
"The addition of Bayer Interventional will expand our commercial footprint and enhance our ability to provide physicians and healthcare systems with a complete portfolio of solutions to treat challenging vascular conditions," said Jeff Mirviss, president, Peripheral Interventions, Boston Scientific. "This acquisition will accelerate the growth of our Peripheral Interventions business and strengthen our position as a global leader in peripheral therapies."
Bayer's Interventional business accounted for approximately $120 million in sales in 2013.
The AngioJet Ultra Thrombectomy System employs a unique technology to break apart and remove blood clots from within blood vessels. It has been used in more than 600,000 cases worldwide and is among the leading choices for eliminating large thrombus burden.
The Jetstream Atherectomy System is one of the most versatile debulking solutions for breaking apart and removing thrombus and plaque from upper and lower extremity peripheral arteries. The system catheters can be used to treat multiple lesion morphologies – from thrombus to challenging calcium deposits.
The Fetch2 Aspiration Catheter is used in those instances where the interventionalist is working in small vessels and prefers to use a manual thrombectomy device to resolve small, fresh thrombus in the peripheral and coronary arteries.
