In the many rentals I've lived in over the years, I've never looked at any of them as permanent homes. I didn't plan on staying in any of them for more than a year or two, so there's many things I never did that could have increased my level of happiness and peace within the home. But there are five things I never did to any rentals I sure wish I had.
Quite often when we talk about the upgrades you can make to a rental apartment or home, I am the first to look at the list and balk, saying to myself that none of it is worth the effort. When the time comes to actually move out of your home, no one really wants any additional work, but with a little extra organization and coordination, I've come to realize that I could have had the home I wanted, instead of the home I was trying make feel like me without big impact ideas.
1. Paint, Paint, Paint: Everyone always talks about painting your rental and even though it seems like a great hassle to paint a space and then paint back over it, since paint can be done in a single coat these days, it seems worth your time. When the time comes to paint back over it, pay a friend or neighbor in snacks or cash to come do it for you while you're busy packing. It will keep you working as well!
2. Dealt With Sucky Lighting: There's bad lighting and then there's sucky lighting. Bad lighting means the place is dark and you obviously need a lamp. Sucky lighting is the kind that is enough light, but it's not great and even though a few extra light sources would have helped. You tell yourself you're not really home enough to worry about it, but think about how it would have improved the look of the room to add a few lamps or liven things up.
3. Put Heavy Things On The Walls: Now I'm no stranger to patching holes, but most of them are on the small side. It's easy to shy away from large artwork or heavy pieces because of the hole that they will leave. For the most part, you can patch any hole or paint over any surface with the coordinating color. Life would have been better with my amazing porthole mirror on the wall instead of sitting in the back of my closet for the day I didn't rent.
4. Bought Space-Specific Items: When you live with one foot out the door, buying things that are specific for a single space can seem like money spent unwisely. Sure you want to organize that closet and make your kitchen pantry exactly what you need, but buying things that fit in those exact spaces that might be the wrong scale for somewhere else means you make due with what you have and although "making it work" can be a badge of honor, having it be right creates peace of mind.
5. Looked At What It Was Instead Of What It Wasn't: Even though there's no act of buying, repairing or decorating in this last item, it can be an easy thing to forget when you have a less than awesome, but kind of ok apartment. Sure a space might be utilitarian, boring, or even cookie cutter, but a home is a home. Focus on the goodness that you bring to it, smile and laugh and play great music. Make it your own space without worry and don't wish for something else… until it's time to move anyway.

At one point, I heard her friends say to her...this is a great party.
I went to the dollar store for many of the decorations...I lucked out as their garden items were fully stocked! I decorated the table for a proper luncheon and made our chandelier the centerpiece! The dessert table was completed by magic mushroom cupcakes.
Each girl arrived at the door and said the fairy pledge. She received her wings (from Oriental Trading) and her crown (which I made from dollar store items...). Ella then sprinkled each girl's wings with fairy dust, aka glitter. They ran around the yard until everyone arrived.
We headed in for lunch...I made little sandwiches cut into hearts and stars. We made fairy sticks (pretzels) and fairy moss (Pirate Booty) and fairy berries. And, of course, tea.
For activities, each girl decorated mini birdhouses, aka fairy houses that I bought at Joann's for a buck each. We also decorated wands that I got at Oriental Trading. I jazzed each wand up with curly ribbon from the dollar store and extra ribbons from my stash. We played musical toadstools...musical chairs. The last activity was a scavenger hunt where each girl had to find a golden necklace, earrings, a feather, a gold coin and a wishing rock. The put their loot in little gauze bags I got from the dollar store.
The day resulted in this....
This happy face...which makes it all worth it! Always!

Nevada Radon Education Program
The Nevada Radon Education Program (NREP), supported by the EPA and Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health, was instituted in 2007 to educate the citizens of Nevada about the radon health risk. University of Nevada Cooperative Extension (UNCE) offers literature, educational programs and radon test kits in many county Extension offices.
Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that has no odor, color or taste and is produced by the breakdown of uranium in soil, rock and water. Uranium is found in all soils and in higher concentrations in granite, shale and phosphates. As it decays into radon gas, it moves through the soil into the atmosphere, where it is harmlessly dispersed in outdoor air or can enter buildings through foundation openings and become trapped inside. When it enters a building, it can accumulate and present a health concern for occupants. Buildings other than homes can also have radon concerns (such as commercial buildings, schools, apartments, etc.).
Radon breaks down into several radioactive elements called radon decay products, which are solid particles that become suspended in air. They are extremely small and easily inhaled, where they can attach to lung tissue. Not everyone exposed to radon will get lung cancer, but the greater the amount of radon and the longer the exposure, the greater the risk of developing lung cancer. Radon is classified as a Group A carcinogen, a substance known to cause cancer in humans. Next to smoking, scientists believe that radon is associated with more lung cancer deaths than any other carcinogen.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the American Medical Association (AMA), the American Lung Association (ALA), the U.S. Surgeon General, and the National Academy of Sciences (NAS) - in addition to many other health organizations - all agree that radon is a health concern that must be addressed. The U.S. Surgeon General, Richard Carmona, issued a national Health Advisory in 2005 warning Americans about the health risk from exposure to radon in indoor air. The nation's chief physician urged Americans to test their homes to find out how much radon they might be breathing.
"Indoor radon is the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the United States and breathing it over prolonged periods can present a significant health risk to families all over the country," Dr. Carmona said. "It's important to know that this threat is completely preventable. Radon can be detected with a simple test and fixed through well-established venting techniques."
Dr. Carmona noted that more than 20,000 Americans die of radon-related lung cancer each year.
The Radon Health Risk
According to EPA estimates, exposure to radon is the leading cause of lung cancer among nonsmokers and is responsible for about 21,000 lung cancer deaths every year, more than drunk driving, household falls, drowning, or home fires.
Lung cancer is the only health effect which has been definitively linked with radon exposure. There is no evidence that other respiratory diseases, such as asthma, are caused by radon exposure and there are no immediate symptoms from exposure to radon. Smokers are at higher risk of developing radon-induced lung cancer.
However, as with those who smoke, not everyone exposed to high levels of radon will develop lung cancer, and the time between exposure and the onset of cancer may be many (5-25) years.
For more information:

- EPA's A Citizen's Guide to Radon
- CDC Household Radon factsheet
- More medical links
Risk Factors to Consider
Your individual living patterns could influence your assessment of your personal risk. Your answers to the following questions may help you evaluate your personal risk.
- Does anyone smoke in your home?
Scientific evidence indicates that smoking combined with radon is a very serious health risk. If a person smokes and is exposed to radon, the risk of lung cancer is much greater than radon exposure alone as described in the risk assessment chart below.
|Radon Level a
|Lifetime Risk of Lung Cancer Death (per person) from Radon Exposure in Homes b
|Never Smokers
|Current Smokers c
|General Population
|36 out of 1,000
|26 out of 100
|11 out of 100
|18 out of 1,000
|15 out of 100
|56 out of 1,000
|15 out of 1,000
|12 out of 100
|45 out of 1,000
|73 out of 10,000
|62 out of 1,000
|23 out of 1,000
|37 out of 10,000
|32 out of 1,000
|12 out of 1,000
|23 out of 10,000
|20 out of 1,000
|73 out of 10,000
|73 out of 100,000
|64 out of 10,000
|23 out of 10,000
|a Assumes constant lifetime exposure in homes at these levels.
b Estimates are subject to uncertainties as discussed in Chapter VIII of the risk assessment.
c Note: BEIR VI did not specify excess relative risks for current smokers.
- Do you have children living at home?
Young children's lungs are smaller and their respiratory rates are twice as high as adults. They may also spend more time inside the house. Combined with their respiratory rate and length of exposure to elevated radon levels means children are exposed to the radon health risk at a much higher rate than adults.
How to Find Out If You Have a Radon Problem
Since you can't see or smell radon, special equipment is needed to detect its presence. Test kits are commercially available, relatively inexpensive and easy to use. They can be purchased and used by the homeowner without outside assistance. The Nevada Radon Education Program offers low-cost test kits through many Nevada Cooperative Extension offices.
Other types of test equipment are more technical and expensive and must be used only by specially trained people. For more information about radon test kits or radon measurement, call 1-888-RADON10 (888-723-6610).

The word clouds are just a preview because they're easy to generate.

So - what...
When the first stones were created, I already was old. The first charity job after my final retirement was the public relations for the fundraising for the original Stonehenge construction. I studied fine arts a loooong timed ago, worked in advertising for some two decades or so, made a life from photography for 12 years, returned to my roots in drawing and sculpting in 2004, stumbled over Poser in August 2006 while looking for a fast and easy way to illustrate a movie storyboard. By this I got lost in the x, y and z axis, but I try to return to 0/0/0 once per week.
Besides some teaching and some advertising work, I am creating Poser content with the goal clearly set to realism and originality. In my spare time I try to look as dangerous as possible.

This is my contribution to this week's WDE at Wet Canvas. Joel was the host and provided a bunch of great photos!
I combined two photos for this painting. A beautiful sundown and two elephants. Something about painting elephants touches a sad spot in my heart, knowing their plight just to survive a bit longer on this planet.
This is oil on a 5x7 canvas board. Part painting knife and part loaded brush. Plenty of paint for texture. I had to re-invent some of the lighting....never an easy thing to do.
Hope ya'all like it!

HOUSTON – As Major League Soccer adjusts its development strategy to take advantage of its nascent partnership with the USL PRO, the Houston Dynamo are working to identify how they will approach developing their talent in the future.
According to club president Chris Canetti, the final decision and announcement will come in the offseason, but the club is working toward striking an affiliate agreement with a current USL PRO club to provide minutes and game time for players that are not getting it in Houston.
"At this point, we're ultimately leaning in the direction of going with an affiliate," Canetti said. "We believe at this point that's the most effective and efficient way of going about it rather than having our own USL PRO franchise at this point."
Houston will follow in the footsteps of the four clubs -- D.C. United, Sporting Kansas City, New England and Philadelphia -- who used the system this year with varying degrees of success. Under the agreement, clubs must loan at least four players to their affiliate club, although they do retain the ability to recall the players at any time.
Fielding a USL PRO affiliate replaces an MLS club's Reserve League team. The decision to strike an affiliate agreement meets one of the options that MLS laid out to clubs as part of the partnership: striking an affiliate agreement or creating a USL PRO side that would compete full-time in the third division.
After considering both options, Canetti said the feasibility of operating another club is too much for the Dynamo to take on now, but it is not out of the question beyond 2014.
"Quite frankly, it's economics," Canetti said. "When you have your own team, you're wholly responsible for the franchise. I'm not sure, with the stage we're at as a club, that's a burden we need to take on. Down the road, having our own USL PRO franchise continues to be an option. In the short-term, 2014, an affiliate is the way we're leaning. Continuing to determine whether starting our own franchise is viable will continue to take place."
One of the details still to be hammered out is with which club the Dynamo will affiliate. Canetti declined to comment on specific clubs that are under consideration.
Three of the other four partnerships have had close geographical ties, with the Kansas City-Orlando City agreement the lone exception. There are no USL PRO teams currently in Texas, but an Oklahoma City club is set to enter the league in 2014.
The Premier Development League's Austin Aztex, coached by former Houston forward Paul Dalglish, do anticipate returning to the professional ranks, according to multiple media interviews with owner David Markley this season, but no timetable for a move has been publicized. When the Aztex were a professional team in the USL from 2009-10, the Dynamo loaned several players there, though rarely on a season-long basis.

Houston have also loaned players to the San Antonio Scorpions and Tampa Bay Rowdies in the North American Soccer League, but their most notable success story came this year in midfielder Brian Ownby's loan to the Richmond Kickers, despite the club's affiliation with D.C. United.
Ownby (pictured above) produced seven goals and six assists in helping the Kickers to the regular-season USL PRO title, and he added three goals in seven Reserve League games for the Dynamo, gaining necessary experience in a season that has seen him limited to just three MLS appearances.
What the Dynamo will look for in a USL PRO affiliate, Canetti said, is a partner club that shares a similar philosophy and can get the Dynamo's young players what they need most: time on the pitch.
"You prefer to do what Kansas City did and send all your players to one place, where there's one philosophical approach and they share ideals," Canetti said. "That's the perfect world in the affiliated model, and that's something we'll go out and try and find."

Seth Rogen and Zac Efron stopped by The Tonight Show on Tuesday, and Jimmy Fallon, people person that he is, convinced them to dress as teen girls for his recurring "Ew!" sketch. Obviously, hilarity ensued. Seth plays Allison Donnelly, a Starbucks-obsessed girl with a pretty cool "Maybe" statement necklace, while Zac shows up later as an interloper named Stacy Anderson. He actually looks kind of hot in a dress, even if it is a little too small to contain his bulging pecs. Stacy and Allison must be best frenemies, because her matching statement necklace says, "Never." Eventually, they all dance to "Turn Down for What," and it is amazing.

Halle Scary's hubby. I forget his name.
Olivier Martinez
But aren't they divorcing, sugarbread?
Yes sugarbread!
I think the separation is just rumours, nothing official yet....but he's just the dirtbag to do this...
betch still be crazy. she was separated from david justice when he got caught with a hooker and she rode the "poor me" train for 20 years.
Halle Hubby is an actor? Huh, I thought he was a model or something. I think Halle is gorgeous in that way that some snakes are beautiful but you'd be a damn fool to get near it.
Sugarbread, don't forget Eric Benet.
yes she can pick winners. she has to be the better person always. narcissism
Can't cosign the olivier guess though I tgink its a solid good guess because I saw what Olivier did to Gabriel's face. I don't think a 115 pound woman angry or not puts any fear in a man who can throw a punch like that. Ijs
@7 he was in that terrible movie Unfaithful with Diane Lane and Gerbil Gere, that's the only thing I've seen him in anyhow...
I think elsa tacky lets thor stick his hammer wherever as long as she get's her pap walks and d-list mag covers.
I can't see Elsa Pataky as having a violent temper. The woman has a castle and Thor babies, if she's still discontented, we're all doing it wrong.
Hey, it worked for schwartengger.
Olivier Martinez is a sperminator!
What an idiot. Men didn't learn anything from Ahnold.
Olivier Martinez
Run Olivier, you in danger girl!
Isn't that a play out of the Gold Digger's handbook? Look it worked for Marsha, Robin's former wife/nanny. Now she's "producing" isn't she?
ah "Unfaithful" really applies here Olivier, doesnt it?
anyone feel that earthquake this AM????
I was awake (insomnia) and it was really strong but brief. In the 5 seconds it took to run from the living room to my husband it was over. He didn't wake up.
Oliver - I liked Unfaithful,
watched again last weekend. Love Diane Lane.
Easy Easy! Olivier.
Anyone else feel sorry for Nahla? The one person in that crazy household who we were hoping had placed this childs' emotional needs first ( or at least CARED about her) and she's boinkin the boss man bareback to get a GD Dip!oma. ( typo stays)
Sorry, kid. Adults be fucked up, yo...
@eros, he touches her, he better put her in the ground cause she will OWN his ass. Her people will start an Avalanche on his behavior that will make De Sade look like a Reverend.

Adams' ninth-inning homer gives Cardinals win over Pirates
Matt Adams hit a two-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to give the St. Louis Cardinals a 2-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday night in the opener of a four-game series with the NL Central rival they topped in the division series last fall.
The Canadian Press
ST. LOUIS - After beating the team he grew up rooting for with his first career game-winning hit, Matt Adams couldn't resist a celebratory fist pump just a few steps out of the batter's box.
"This is unbelievable," Adams said after his two-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning gave the St. Louis Cardinals a 2-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Monday night in the opener of a four-game series with the NL Central rival they beat in the division series last fall. "I don't even know what to say."
Adams is from Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania, and starred at Slippery Rock College, but the Pirates never showed any interest. He joked that the only people in western Pennsylvania that were happy were "probably a handful of family members."
"I don't think I touched the dirt the whole way around (the bases)," Adams said.
Matt Carpenter drew his third walk leading off the ninth and Matt Holliday flied out before Adams hit his 10th homer on an 0-1 hanging breaking ball from Justin Wilson (2-1). It was the Cardinals' first game-winning homer since Skip Schumaker connected against the Kansas City Royals on June 19, 2011.
"As soon as I made contact I knew it was gone," Adams said. "It felt good off the bat."
Adams entered the game batting just .190 against lefties but has been the Cardinals' top threat lately with six hits the last two games. He foiled the Pirates' shift in the first lining an opposite field double to left.
"He's a dad-gum good hitter, man," Cardinals starter Adam Wainwright said. "I think we're just breaking the ice of the surface of what this guy can do."
Wilson said simply: "Bad pitch, good hitting. Probably the worst time to hang a breaking ball there."
Wainwright, the Cardinals' 11-game winner, scattered seven hits in seven scoreless innings without consistent location on his fastball.
"I felt like I had the command of an A-ball pitcher," Wainwright said. "I should be good for the next start, I got plenty of work out of the stretch."
Pat Neshek (3-0) worked a perfect ninth against the top of the order for St. Louis.
The game lasted 2 hours and 37 minutes but was extended by two rain delays totalling 58 minutes.
Morton remained 2-10 for his career against the Cardinals although he reduced his ERA to 5.58. He was lifted in the eighth when the Pirates loaded the bases with two outs. Sam Freeman struck out rookie pinch-hitter Gregory Polanco.
"It might not be logical to you, it was kind of logical to me," manager Clint Hurdle said. "I thought our better opportunity was to send somebody up other than Charlie."
The Cardinals squandered a chance in the eighth when Jon Jay was doubled off second after pinch-hitter Oscar Taveras lined out to right.
The Pirates had runners in scoring position five times against Wainwright, who has thrown 14 2-3 scoreless innings his last two outings. He was particularly tough on fellow Al-Star Andrew McCutchen, who tapped out to end the fifth to waste Starling Marte's triple and flied out with two on to end the seventh.
Right fielder Josh Harrison, chosen by Cardinals manager Mike Matheny as an All-Star reserve on Sunday, made an outstanding diving catch to rob Jhonny Peralta of a hit in the second.
Rain — or the threat of it — was a dominant factor early with the grounds crew ever on alert. The start was delayed 47 minutes with the tarp down in anticipation of a storm and ominous clouds looming but no precipitation,
It was halted 11 minutes by heavy rain after the Pirates stranded two in the first. Some Pittsburgh players began running off the field when a second brief storm hit just before the game resumed and crew chief Joe West appeared ready to call another halt before dropping his arms and retreating to first base.
Plate umpire Alan Porter made a rarely seen call in the first after Russell Martin was plunked in the arm, ruling that Martin hadn't made an attempt to get out of the way. Instead of loading the bases with two outs, the pitch was simply ball three for a full count and Martin flied out.
NOTES: The Pirates scratched Gerrit Cole (oblique) from his scheduled start on Wednesday and will place him on the 15-day DL. Cole threw in the bullpen earlier in the day. ... McCutchen was a career .382 hitter against Wainwright before Monday. ... Hurdle hedged whether he lobbied Matheny for his All-Star candidates. "I didn't have any conversations along those lines," Hurdle said. "And if I did I wouldn't share them." ... Vance Worley (2-1, 2.28) opposes rookie Carlos Martinez (2-3, 3.91) on Tuesday. Worley has pitched into the seventh each of his four starts since being recalled in mid-June. The Cardinals are 4-0 in starts by Martinez. ... Rehabbing Pirates LHP Francisco Liriano (left oblique) worked six innings in his first rehab start.

The simple search box is located in the top right hand corner of every page. It can be used to perform a general search on the descriptions of the images, objects and articles catalogued in the website. It will quickly find keywords anywhere within the records. Just enter the word or words you are looking for in the search box and click on Go.
To narrow down a search you can either use a Boolean search, or look for words in specific fields of the catalogue record by using the Advanced Search .
Searching is not case sensitive so search words can be lower and upper case or a mixture of the two.
The Boolean operators, AND, NOT, OR can be used to define a more specific search in both Simple and Advanced search fields.
Note that Boolean operators must be typed in UPPER CASE
Where no operator is specified between words, the operator AND is assumed. Brackets allow you to define the order in which operators are applied.
For example
When applying the operators NOT and OR, further qualification by AND is optional, so:
river NOT Thames is the same as river AND NOT Thames.
Quotation marks can be used to identify phrases of more than one word.
The advanced search can be used to narrow down the search by looking for a term in a specific field or group of fields in the catalogue record. In this way it is possible to distinguish Kingsley the person from Kingsley the place. Boolean searches can be applied within any of these fields.
The Sense of Place South East (SoPSE) website covers a wide range of types of material and draws on a number of different pre-existing catalogues. We have tried to bring these together into a single database but there are inevitable variations of usage and terminology between, for example, a collection of artefacts and issues of a newspaper. Some collections will not make use of fields that are important to others. These notes explain how the various searches relate to the fields in a SoPSE record.
Use this field to search for an object or image title, an article title from a newspaper or magazine or the title of a newspaper, book or journal. (E.g. Snare's Reading directory.)
The name search brings together names of people connected with the item. This will either be as creator or subject. The full object display record will show the person's name in either the Creator or Name Subject field. (E.g. Robert Scott.)
SoPSE partners have used a range of keywords to describe the subjects of items in their collections. If your search is unsuccessful try using a synonym (another word with a similar meaning). Some keywords mentioned in the 'Full Description' (used to describe images in detail) may not be entered in the Subject field so it can be more effective to use the Simple search box to find references to particular subjects.(e.g. costume, boat, health)
Use this field when searching for a specific place relating to the object. This field can relate to more than one place and can be used for the subject matter of the object (e.g. Himalayas) or the place where the object was produced (e.g. London).
Use this field to search for the publisher of a printed work. In some cases it is also used for the organisation that commissioned a work (e.g. Huntley & Palmers) as distinct from the makers (e.g. Huntley, Boorne & Stevens).
Use this field to search for the original object type e.g. calendar. This field works effectively when used in conjunction with other search fields or on uncommon objects. Warning: A large proportion of items currently on the database are digitised photographs so a search for photograph will yield many hundreds of results.
Use this field to select a specific named collection to search on.
Use this field in conjunction with Title when you are searching for a specific issue number of a newspaper or journal.
For example:
Title: Slough Observer
Issue: 29546
This field is also used to enter volume numbers of books, journals and magazines.
Use this field in conjunction with Title when you are searching for a specific page number of a newspaper, journal or book.
For example:
Title: Itchen Engravings
Page No: 7
This field is for searching the location where the original object or item is currently held. This is not the place depicted in the image or where the original object was made (see Place). Use this field when you are searching for all items held at a specific museum, library, archive or other organisation.
Use these fields to search for specific dates or date ranges. It is not necessary to fill in every box - you can search on a year, on a month in a year or for an exact date.
If the day and month fields of the 'From' box are left empty the date defaults to 1 January. Similarly the default date for the 'To' box is 31 December.
To Search on a Specific Date: Ensure you input the date in both the 'From' and 'To' boxes. This limits both ends of the search.
To Search on a Date Range: If you only fill in the 'From' box, the search will collect every result from the date you specified in the 'From' box up to the present day. Similarly, if you only fill in the 'To' box, the search will collect every result up to the date you specified in the 'To' box.
When search terms are entered in more than one field the Boolean operator AND is assumed. This means that the search will only find records satisfying all your criteria.
For example:
Name: Thomas Palmer AND
Location: NOT University
will include all items related to Thomas Palmer except those held in the University.

Vox Announces AC4TVmini
MUSIKMESSE, FRANKFURT, GERMANY, March 24, 2010 — VOX Amplification has added the new AC4TVmini to its amplifier lineup. Extremely portable, the AC4TVmini is ideal for recording, jamming with friends, rehearsals and more. Based on the popular VOX AC4 from the 1960s, this all-tube practice amp has been factory-modded with a premium transformer and select components for optimum tone.
This up-to-date Class A version retains the distinctive EL84 power tube of the original and features a 12AX7 pre-amp tube, plus an original VOX design 6.5" speaker. Adjusting the volume and tone settings can create a broad range of tones – from a sweet, clean sound to the distinctive VOX overdrive sound. Stylish, clean and classic, the AC4TVmini borrows its retro-chic "TV" front styling from the classic 1958 AC15. This vintage VOX design is still in use on today's AC15HTV from the VOX Heritage Collection.
The attenuator switch allows the AC4TVmini's output power to be set at four Watts, one Watt or even one-tenth of a Watt. This convenient and ear-saving feature allows the amp to create a real, musically satisfying distortion – even at the lowest power setting. An external speaker jack is also provided for connecting to the user's favorite cabinet.
The AC4TVmini will be available in June 2010 with an MSRP of $300.00.

Canadian Club Sherry Cask
Whisky Review: Canadian Club Sherry Cask 85.5/100
a review by Chip Dykstra (Aka Arctic Wolf)
Posted February 6, 2011
A whisky sample for this review was provided to me from the personal collection of J. L. Wheelock, who is part of the Beam Global team here in Alberta. The sample was smaller than my normal 200 ml minimum sample size, and I augmented this sample by opening my own bottle of Canadian Club Sherry Cask Whisky such that I could complete my normal tasting regimen of five independent tasting sessions.
The Canadian Club Sherry Cask Canadian Whisky is new twist on Canadian Club Whisky. The base of this whisky is an eight year Old Canadian Club whisky made from the familiar "blended at birth" recipe of corn, rye, rye malt and barley spirits. The spirits from these grains are blended before entering the white oak barrel, and then set down for six to eight years to age. Then the resultant whisky is double matured in Sherry Casks from Jerez Spain.
The second maturation allows the whisky to acquire some of the characteristics of the sherry (similar to sherry cask matured scotches), but this second maturation is of a much shorter time period which ensures that the core spirit remains the centerpiece of the whisky. When the Canadian Club Sherry Cask is bottled, it is done so at 41.3% alcohol by volume, just a hair over the regular 40 % strength of the rest of their line-up. That added little boost of alcohol is just one of the unique characteristics of this C.C. Whisky.
In The Bottle 4/5
The Canadian Club Sherry Cask is presented in a clear bottle pictured to the left. Although the flagon style of the bottle is typical for Canadian Club, the labeling is quite different. Based upon this new style of label, I'm guessing that the producers of Canadian Club want it clear right from the opening presentation that this whisky is going to be a little different. Another new touch is the inclusion of the batch number printed under the main label near the bottom of the bottle. The bottle I am reviewing is from Batch No. SC-018. As well, this bottle is the first of the C.C. range (assuming we start at the six-year-old Premium and move up from there) to be sealed with a cork, rather than with a plastic screw cap. I like the added touches, and I will admit I was persuaded to buy the bottle based upon its uniqueness as compared with other Canadian Club offerings.
In the Glass 9/10
In the glass, the Canadian Club Sherry Cask displays itself as a rich amber coloured whisky with bright copper tones flashing when it is held up to the light. Initially, I receive wiffs of a nice sweet cherry aroma from the glass as I nose it. Hints of orange marmalade, and lemony zests fade in and out. I seem to receive additional (different) citrus notes each time I sample the whisky, and my feeling is that the temperature plays a key role in the actual scents of aroma I am receiving. The warmer the glass, the more delicate citrus notes I receive. A certain smokiness is evident as well which seems to carry aroma of drier fruits like raisins and dates into the breezes. When the glass is allowed to fully decant, rich baking spices appear as well.
In the Mouth 52/60
The whisky is soft in the mouth and somewhat sweet; but it carries sharper notes of grains and orange peel with the soft sweetness. Caramel, as well as impressions of cherries and ripe plums seem to lie just under this sharpness. Just as the nose was fickle, I seem to receive different taste impressions each time I sample the C.C. Sherry Cask. At times it is smoky with a bevy of dried fruits, and at other times the whisky is almost rye-like in its fruity spiciness. Lurking in the bottom of the whisky I taste damp tobacco and a smidgen of tar.
My sense is that this whisky is full of complexity, but I also feel that the balance is not quite on par with the complexity which is leading to the chameleon-like impressions I am receiving each tasting session. I enjoyed each sampling session immensely, but I was seeking a resolution to my taste impressions that was never realized.
In the Throat 12/15
The Canadian Club Sherry Cask proved just as difficult to quantify in the finish. Once again, my impressions on the finish changed with each tasting session. One day the whisky will settle into a delicious chocolate and tobacco fade, and the next day I experience a baking spice and caramel landing. The only consistent aspect of the finish was that each time I felt that the sharpness of the finish was a little more penetrating than I liked. A sharpness similar to citrus peel that burned just a little down the throat.
The Afterburn 8.5/10
I do not think I have experienced a whisky that had such a changeable character as this one. In some ways this was pleasant as the ritual of discovery stays fresh and exciting; but, this changeable character might cause me to choose another whisky from my cabinet to enjoy on certain days. I like to know what to expect, and to choose a spirit based upon my mood; but, this whisky is never what I expect.
In the end I have decided that I like this whisky a lot, but I must choose to enjoy it only when I can approach it with an open mind and an open heart.

Suggested Recipe
Canadian Club Swizzle
a cocktail by Arctic Wolf
1 oz Canadian Club Sherry Cask
1/2 oz Canadian Club Premium
1/2 oz Lime Juice
1/2 oz cranberry juice
1 teaspoon Agave Syrup
Chunks of Ice
Ginger Ale
Shake the first six ingredients over ice
Strain into a tumbler half full of ice chunks
Stir until the glass frosts
Finish with Ginger Ale
Garnish with a slice of Lime
Please enjoy the C.C. Whisky and the suggested cocktail responsibly!
As always you may interpret the scores I provide as follows.
0-25 A spirit with a rating this low would actually kill you.
26-49 Depending upon your fortitude you might actually survive this.
50 -59 You are safe to drink this…but you shouldn't.
60-69 Substandard swill which you may offer to people you do not want to see again.
70-74 Now we have a fair mixing rum or whisky. Accept this but make sure it is mixed into a cocktail.
75-79 You may begin to serve this to friends, again probably still cocktail territory.
80-84 We begin to enjoy this spirit neat or on the rocks. (I will still primarily mix cocktails)
85-89 Excellent for sipping or for mixing!
90-94 Definitely a primary sipping spirit, in fact you may want to hoard this for yourself.
95-97.5 The Cream of the Crop
98+ I haven't met this bottle yet…but I want to.
Very loosely we may put my scores into terms that you may be more familiar with on a Gold, Silver, and Bronze medal scale as follows:
70 – 79.5 Bronze Medal (Recommended only as a mixer)
80 – 89.5 Silver Medal (Recommended for sipping and or a high quality mixer)
90 – 95 Gold Medal (Highly recommended for sipping and for sublime cocktails.)
95.5+ Platinum Award (Highest Recommendation)

CC Sherry Cask is one of THE tastiest whiskies I've ever tasted. I only get it every so often, but it is definitely one of my FAVES from the CC line. Definitely give it a try. One of the less-expensive scotches, the "Macnish" brand has one as well, that I want to try……I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this whisky!!! It's a good one for folks who normally don't like whiskies…..
December 20, 2012 at 12:53 am
im trying this whiskey for the first time tonight, and the major taste on my palette is fruity tea, but reading your review, im really excited for the next few tastings, i am a big fan of variety in my drinks, and also that little burn 🙂
February 7, 2011 at 5:13 pm
I will third that observation. The CC sherry cask never quiet tastes the same twice, but it is a great whisky none the less.
February 7, 2011 at 10:49 am
I was mightily impressed by this whisky. I really could not find any flaw, aside from a bit of a thin body. I would certainly buy it again.
February 6, 2011 at 7:36 am
couldn't agree here more.
I bought a bottle of this, the first few drams I tried I was really impressed.. it tasted great.
then the next few I was disappointed… felt too sweet or imbalanced.
Finally I got to the last 3rd of the bottle and just decided to mix it with coke because i didn't want to drink it straight or on the rock anymore.
It mixed well with cola, but I'd rather use the less expensive CC premium to do that.
I haven't quite had a bottle treat me like that before. Strange experience.

Hebrew Text Updates
Posted 13 August 2012 - 02:25 AM
BHS-T which comes with the BHS Apparatus had serious missing tags. It has now been updated and is available for download through Check for Content Updates..
HMT-W4 will replace BHS-W4 as our Hebrew Bible. It is also available as a free upgrade but you need to order the upgrade, which appears in Paid Updates.
The upgrade is important as Groves/Westminster have further corrected the text to the Leningrad Codex, and the tagging is also improved. This is their release 4.16.
The BHS-W4.syntax will soon be updated and released as HMT-W4.syntax in order for it to work with the new text. You will be able to order this as a free upgrade to the BHS-W4.syntax.

Here is a suggestion so others do not encounter the issue that I did. When I downloaded and installed HMT-W4, I immediately deleted BHS-W4. However, I had not changed the Preferences setting at Compare Text. As a result I got a warning dialog box that said that BHS-W4 was not installed. When you click the OK box it continually reappears. I had to Force Quit Accordance, go to Library>Application>Accordance>Modules>Texts>and double click BHS-W4 to reinstall it.
Moral of the story: Change your Preference settings prior to deleting the BHS-W4

I am a little confused ..when I ask Accordance for updates..it wants to charge me for all of them..I do not have a problem paying for them if they are needed ...I am a serious student but not sure what I would benefit by the updates...my syntax module will not update now....can you please give me some advise when you have time (no hurry)....it you think I need the "updates", do I have to go to each module and pay for a update (Accordance says I need 4 updates)....thanks for your help!
Posted 15 August 2012 - 04:26 PM
If you add the module to your cart and check out, it will cost nothing, and the respective item will appear in your purchased items list. If you then go to Easy Install in Accordance, the new module will be there for download and installation.
If an item is a free update, simply download and install. For those you do not go through the website, adding to the cart, etc.

We also offer the first fasicles of the BHQ, the Biblia Hebraica Quinta which is the next edition of the critical Hebrew Bible, with commentary, apparatus, and masorah. The text is not tagged at all, but is also not much different from the the BHS.

Likewise, eventhough I bought the BHS-Q, I haven't found it of much use simply because I haven't made use of the limited number of books which are published in it. When it comes to keeping my highlights intact and not having to start over, what text should I use?

Note also Helen did not say the morph tagging in the BHS-T will not be updated, just that it will not be updated often since we had to do some tricky programming to adapt the morph to that text. Also, I believe it had been almost two years between the 4.14 and 4.16 update from Groves to the morphology; since it has been around so long it is not undergoing constant revision.

(1) I am in need of an apparatus, and
(2) I am very interested in text-critical work on the Hebrew Bible (I will soon be purchasing the tagged SP, for example). How can I go about obtaining an apparatus...Many thanks for the help!
You can get the Apparatus for $109.99 by purchasing the following:
"The complete text of the Hebrew Bible, following the Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia, with the Groves-Wheeler Westminster Hebrew Morphology 4.14. This module includes vowel pointing, cantillation marks, and lemma and grammatical tagging information for each word in the text.
The BHS Apparatus is included with this purchase, and the text is marked with the sigla for the notations in the apparatus."
http://www.accordanc...pparatus add-on
"This bundle adds both Hebrew apparatus modules to the tagged Hebrew text. The BHS-T has both tags and sigla to mark the loications of the apparatus notation. The BHQ text is not tagged but is accompanied by the apparatus, commentary, and the minor and major Masora."

If you are looking to get into Textual Criticism of the Hebrew Bible, I would suggest BHQ (and Oxford Hebrew Bible and Biblia Qumranica or the Accordance Dead Sea Scrolls Bundle). If you already have a print BHS, I wouldn't buy an electronic edition. The BHS is riddled with problems, both methodological and insufficient data. BHQ seeks to correct some of these issues.
In addition, you might as well as buy Tov's textbook, Textual Criticism of the Hebrew Bible.
Posted 23 May 2013 - 08:36 PM
If you already own the HMT-W4, I would recommend the Hebrew Apparatus Add-On (the second link posted by bkMitchell). For the same price as the first few fasicles of the BHQ (which are very reasonably priced in comparison to their print counterparts), you also receive the tagged text of the BHS and its apparatus.
While the BHS is not without its problems, it remains the standard manual edition for scholarly research. Although it will be superceded by the BHQ, it's doubtful that this project will be completed before 2020, meaning that the BHS will remain the starting point for text-critical research for some biblical books for the next several years. As far as I am aware, The Oxford Hebrew Bible Project has not advanced beyond the initial proof-of-concept stages, which would suggest that publication is years away.
I would agree with J. T. that anyone interested in the textual criticism of the Hebrew Bible should have a copy of Tov's Textual Criticism of the Hebrew Bible (the third edition includes the most recent assessments of the biblical scrolls from Qumran, as well as a lot of other essential information).

The ridiculously good Bit.Trip Runner has a sequel, of sorts, on the way. It's not part of the Bit.Trip series, though, so it's simply called Runner 2. Which about sums up what's going on.
Note that, as good as this already looks, it's a "super sneaky peek" at pre-alpha code, which you'll eventually realise with the lack of effects or background animations.

These two put everybody to shame (except the snowboarders) carrying the beds! And Bill rocked the tobacco task. I hope they make it far; they have already made it farther then I previously thought.
In the recap last episode:Phil: "Eight teams remains, who will be eliminated next?"Cathi: "Hot Dog"
I LOVE LOVE LOVE them so much!!!!! So happy they are still in it!!!! LOVE how they cannot be placed lower than 6th place now!!! WOW. Who would of though at first that they would go that far!!!
