Two weeks ago, I was in the Riverdale section of da Bronx, getting all mad scientist in Junior Merino's Liquid Lab. Junior's a consultant and former bartender who created the Liquid Lab in a Riverdale apartment, as a facility where he can create and test new recipes for cocktails and food flavored with spirits. The Lab is stocked with thousands of bottles of spirits, liqueurs, mixers, and bitters–many of which are otherwise unavailable in the United States.
Gird Your Belly!
Junior's wife, Heidi, had warned me in advance that I needed to start my day with a hearty breakfast, to provide a base for all the spirits and cocktails I'd be tasting. So after a hearty repast, I caught the subway up to the Bronx. When I arrived at the Lab, I met my fellow attendees: bartenders from Drink and Craigie on Main in Boston, and drink slingers from Hotel Delmano, Pranna, and Eleven Madison Park in New York. Rounding out the group was Village Voice writer Chantal Martineau, who's beaten me to the roundup scoop, with her writeup here. We signed a release form (no photography or video allowed, which is why I have no pix of my own here), donned lab coats, and got ready to go.
All photographs are the property of The Liquid Chef Inc. and are used with permission.
First up, though, was a true breakfast of champions: punch-spiked cereal. Talk about yer basic snap-crackle-burp!
Aroma Architecture
Next, Junior launched into a section he called Aroma Architecture. He passed around various herbs and greens, and urged us to sniff and taste each one, to think about using their flavors in cocktails, and also to think about how similar flavors come through in the taste of certain spirits. Some of these herbs are relatively common cocktail ingredients–mint, sage, dill, hibiscus. Others were surprising, but upon tasting them in this context, I could start to make some connections between my salad plate and my mixing glass; among these were baby chard, baby kale, carrot greens, borage, and pea shoots. When we started down this road, I knew I was in for a great time at the Lab because I knew I'd be tasting new flavor combos all day long.
Willy Wonka Cocktailing
Then we got into the heart of the Lab. Now, if you've never been, let me explain how it works. Junior secures sponsors for each Lab, for both base spirits and liqueurs. Each Lab is broken into five flights and mixing sessions. For each flight of base spirit, you blind-taste five examples of that spirit and discuss the flavors and aromas with Junior and your fellow participants. So, for example, you taste five piscos or five gins. Then you get to mixing with that base spirit.
The rules of the Lab are, you make two drinks per base spirit. Each of your two drinks must include the sponsor's product, plus at least one of the sponsor liqueurs. Any other ingredients are your choice, using any spirit, liqueur, herb, spice, bitter, syrup, salt, or garnish that Junior has available. You mix up one drink, divvy it up among nine tiny cups, and distribute those out to Junior and the other guests (leaving one for yourself, of course).
That's a Lotta Cocktails!
How many? Let's rock some mathemagics now. For each base spirit, you're mixing two cocktails, which means that over the course of the day, you're creating 10 new cocktails. Eight other people in the room are mixing 10 drinks a piece (including Junior), and you're tasting every single cocktail. Including your own drinks, that adds up to 90 cocktails. Zam! Now, each taste is only about half an ounce, but that still means, if you actually drink each one instead of just taking a sip, you're consuming about 45 ounces of cocktail over the course of a day. That's roughly 15 full-size drinks. Luckily for us, we had ample supplies of bottled water, but now you see why Heidi urged us all to have a large breakfast first.
Tipsy & Overwhelmed
Our base spirits, in order, were pisco, cachaça, rum, tequila, and mexcal. In each category, Junior had bottles of the spirit on its own, and he had several infused bottles. You could choose to use the plain spirit or one (or more) of the infusions. I wish I could tell you what I mixed up for these spirits, but I simply can't remember, and it wouldn't matter anyway because to be honest, my drinks weren't that good. The thing you have to understand is that the Lab is fast-paced; I mean lightning fast. I was around professional bartenders here, who serve some of the top restaurants and bars in the Northeast.
In a very short time, we had to choose between the plain spirit and the infused options (tasting if you wished before you decided), then choose the liqueur, and then track down a third ingredient and anything else we wanted in there, and not just once, but twice. For an amateur, it was a challenge. I tried to get creative; I was grabbing bottles and herbs and whatever, just to see what worked together and what didn't. Tequila, coca liqueur, and ginger-hibiscus syrup, with muddled electric Szechuan buttons? Why the hell not, what have you got to lose? (A bartender from Eleven Madison teased me at one point: "Why not use that? No one likes your drinks anyway." At least, I think she was teasing.)
But when I said my drinks weren't that good–well, I don't really know whether they were or not. It was a little beside the point, in a way. I mean, yeah, you want to make good drinks whenever you pick up a shaker. But often the cost of creating a really great drink is mixing your way through many bad ones first, until you find the right notes. I do know that at one point, I was playing with the tequila, and I paired it with Combier triple sec and something else. I realized the balance was off and added lime juice. Then I smacked myself in the head when I realized I had reinvented the fucking Margarita. Dammit!
My problem was, I was a little cowed by the talent around me, and I was letting it get to me, and starting to play it safe. After the fucking Margarita, I started taking chances again and having more fun as a result.
It's Not Just About the Drinks, Though
At one point, Junior passed around plates of edible cocktails, and these were fun and surprising:
- Macchu Pisco sour marshmallow
- Siembra Azul tequila and Combier Liqueur D'Orange gummy
- White chocolate, Castries Peanut Rum Creme, Chairman's Reserve Rum, and Domaine de Canton truffle
- Leblon cachaça and Vita Coco coconut-water popsicle
The truffle, of course, was amazing, but I think my favorite "edible" was the pisco-sour marshmallow, which really captured the essence of a pisco sour. Lunch, served I think after the cachaça round, was an amazing spread of booze-infused food. Here are just a few examples:
- Tuna Lollypop: sushi grade tuna, marinated in whiskey that has been infused with pinepeppercorns, some asian spices, herbs, and grenache vinegar. Served with a cube of watermelon and topped with Koppert Cress Basil Cress.
- Guava Chipotle BBQ short ribs: short ribs braised for 12 hours in herbs and cinnamon, and dressed with a bbq sauce made with guava, chipotle, and Chairmans's Reserve Rum infused with vanilla and other spices. Served with a cipollini onion roasted with Royal Combier and topped with Koppert Cress Atsina Cress, that has light licorice notes.
- Elotes: traditionally a staple in Mexican households, this dish is made by cooking ears of corn, then smothering it in a homemade Scorpion Mezcal aioli, queso cotija (aged dried cheese), and powdered chipotle pepper.
Traditionally, Junior and Heidi then take everyone out for dinner and drinks. We wound up in the Bar Room at The Modern, a Danny Meyer restaurant connected to the Museum of Modern Art. This was a little heady for me, since the only other Danny Meyer place I had ever dined at was Shake Shack! Coincidentally, I was in the middle of Meyer's book, Setting the Table, which covers the role of hospitality in business, so it was fun to both talk to the Eleven Madison bartenders about his book, and also see his concepts in action at The Modern. Everyone was pretty wiped out after dinner, so we chose to eschew the post-dinner cocktail round.
Was It Worth It?
Oh, hell yes. I'd do it all again if they'd let me, but I know they need to spread the joy around to many other bartenders. I took a lot from this day of creativity and rabble-rousing. First, as I said earlier, I loved sampling all the various herbs and thinking about creative ways to use them in drinks. Next, just being in the room with such talented and witty people was energizing. It made me really want to try to push my own ingenuity forward. It was also nice to see that nearly every bartender turned out at least one dud. Why wouldn't that happen? You're trying crazy new ideas, and not all of them are going to work. Finally, the day was just fun. Junior and Heidi kept a good, positive spirit flowing in the Lab and made it a really great experience.
I'd recommend Liquid Lab for anyone in the spirits industry; it's that good.

Villa and Swans share points
Aston Villa ended their losing run but there was little respite for under-fire manager Paul Lambert as they ground out a 1-1 draw with Swansea.
It was a meeting of two out-of-form teams, with Villa having lost their previous four matches while Swansea were without a win in five.
The hosts scored in the first half at Villa Park for the first time this Barclays Premier League season through Gabriel Agbonlahor in the seventh minute but Swansea piled on the pressure and got their reward when Roland Lamah equalised eight minutes before half-time.
The Welsh side dominated the second half but were unable to find a winner.
Swansea boss Michael Laudrup made seven changes from the defeat by Chelsea on Boxing Day, while Villa had midfielder Ashley Westwood back after suspension.
The hosts had left the field to jeers after losing at home to Crystal Palace on Thursday but they began positively, pressing high up the pitch and wasting no time breaking forward.
They got their reward in the seventh minute as Andreas Weimann picked up the ball on the right and played in Agbonlahor, who exploited dreadful positioning by the Swansea defence and found himself all alone on the edge of the penalty area.
The striker hesitated but then showed good composure to place the ball under Gerhard Tremmel.
It was just what Villa needed, but as the half wore on Swansea became more and more dominant.
Their first chance came in the 17th minute when Pablo Hernandez cut inside and tested Brad Guzan, who initially spilled the ball but quickly gathered it.
Three minutes later the visitors should have been level but Ben Davies headed the ball into the ground and over the bar from six yards when he was picked out by Jonathan De Guzman's corner.
Villa threatened sporadically but their periods of possession were fleeting and the pressure continued to grow at the other end.
The visiting fans celebrated erroneously when Antonio Luna's poor clearance fell to De Guzman on the edge of the area and he flashed a shot just wide.
But two minutes later Swansea were level, Jonjo Shelvey picking out the lively Hernandez on the left and his cross was headed in at the back post by Lamah.
Guzan got an arm to the header but could not keep it out.
The home fans again expressed their disgruntlement at the half-time whistle, and the pattern continued at the start of the second half.
Guzan was called into action again in the 52nd minute, tipping over De Guzman's free-kick, before Wilfried Bony fired well over the bar.
Shelvey was the next to try his luck but his shot was blocked five yards out by Luna and Bony was unable to get to the rebound.
The worry for the visitors was they were not testing Guzan nearly enough and there was always the danger that Villa could hit them on the break.
Agbonlahor at least tried a shot at goal for the hosts in the 71st minute but it was from 25 yards and flew well over the bar.
A goal appeared much more likely at the other end, and Villa did well to block Bony's dangerous shot before Shelvey's cross just evaded two Swansea players.
Lambert sent on Karim El Ahmadi, Libor Kozak and Marc Albrighton in a bid to give Villa more attacking impetus but they were struggling to string two passes together.
Fabian Delph, one bright spot for Villa this season, tested Tremmel with a well-struck shot but it was straight at the Swansea keeper.
That turned out to be the final chance and there were again boos as referee Roger East blew the final whistle.

This week I'm adding a freshly crocheted batch of organic pot holders to my shops. They will be the last batch in this incarnation (these colours with these design in this beautiful organic yarn) and will never be repeated in quite the same way. Although I'll definitely be working up some of these designs for my regular pot holder collection I'm planning to take a new direction with my organic/up-cycled ideas. Those are on the hooks as we speak and I'm hoping to have them ready in a week or two.

tomfryday needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 73 designs submitted by 23 freelance designers.
FRYDAY unique constructions
I work independently in Australia as a builder. My service is making designer furniture and unique pieces for inside and outside the house. Such as desks, daybeds, stairs, tables, chairs etc.
The message I want to convey is that my stuff is unique and personally tailored to their needs. I use allot of recycled material with a very homely feel.
Householders and anyone who wants something special in their home or work place that isn't mass made or comes off the shelves.
The words FRYDAY needs to be in the logo as does UNIQUE CONSTRUCTIONS. I feel unique constructions should be smaller than fryday, but you're the designer you decide. I don't have any specific colours in mind.I use allot of recycled material so an earthy feel to the logo. I'm a builder not a designer- that's why I need you. JUST GO FOR IT!!

Cardinals Shut Out Nationals and Take a 2 -1 Lead in Division Series
Chris Carpenter was every bit the postseason ace he's been in the past for the St. Louis Cardinals.
Taking the mound for only the fourth time in 2012, missing a rib after surgery to cure numbness on his right side, the 37-year-old Carpenter pitched scoreless ball into the sixth inning, rookie Pete Kozma delivered a three-run homer, and the defending champion Cardinals beat the Washington Nationals 8-0 Wednesday to take a 2-1 lead in their NL division series.
All in all, quite a damper on the day for a Nationals Park-record 45,017 red-wearing, towel-twirling fans witnessing the first major league postseason game in the nation's capital in 79 years.
Three relievers finished the shutout for the Cardinals, who can end the best-of-five series in Thursday's Game 4 at Washington.

The Ecological Footprint is a resource accounting tool used widely as a management and communication tool by governments, businesses, educational institutions and NGOs to answer a specific resource question: How much of the biological capacity of the planet is required by a given human activity or population?
The Ecological Footprint measures the amount of biologically productive land and sea area an individual, a region, all of humanity, or a human activity requires to produce the resources it consumes and absorb the carbon dioxide emissions, and compares this measurement to how much land and sea area is available.
Biologically productive land and sea includes area that 1) supports human demand for food, fiber, timber, energy and space for infrastructure and 2) absorbs the carbon dioxide emissions from the human economy. Biologically productive areas include cropland, forest and fishing grounds, and do not include deserts, glaciers and the open ocean.
Current Ecological Footprint Standards (www.footprintstandards.org) use global hectares as a measurement unit – which makes data and results globally comparable.
Personal Footprint
You've probably heard of the Ecological Footprint - the metric that allows us to calculate human pressure on the planet and come up with facts, such as: If everyone lived the lifestyle of the average American we would need 5 planets.
How much land area does it take to support your lifestyle? Take this quiz to find out your Ecological Footprint, discover your biggest areas of resource consumption, and learn what you can do to tread more lightly on the earth.
There are a number of online Ecological Footprint calculators in use today. When evaluating other Ecological Footprint calculators, the most important consideration is whether the calculator is actually measuring the Ecological Footprint and not just using the term footprint as a proxy for general environmental impact. These calculators may offer interesting insights but they are not aligned with the international Ecological Footprint Standards, which were adopted in 2006 in order to ensure that Footprint studies were both credible and consistent.
The Ecological Footprint as defined by the Ecological Footprint standards calculates how much biologically productive area is required to produce the resources required by the human population and to absorb humanity's carbon dioxide emissions. Approximately 90 percent of all leading Ecological Footprint practitioners worldwide have joined Global Footprint Network and have agreed to adhere to these standards and to use a common set of data.
For globally comparable and credible Ecological Footprint calculator results, look for transparent information on the methodology used, and check to see if the calculator was created by a Global Footprint Network partner, as partnership requires compliance with Ecological Footprint standards.
Biocapacity is shorthand for biological capacity, which is the ability of an ecosystem to produce useful biological materials and to absorb carbon dioxide emissions.
Overshoot, which in this context is shorthand for ecological overshoot, occurs when a population's demand on an ecosystem exceeds the capacity of that ecosystem to regenerate the resources it consumes and to absorb its carbon dioxide emissions.
The Ecological Footprint is often used to calculate global ecological overshoot, which occurs when humanity's demand on the biosphere exceeds the available biological capacity of the planet. By definition, overshoot leads to a depletion of the planet's life supporting biological capital and/or to an accumulation of carbon dioxide emissions.
Ecological Footprints can be calculated for individuals, groups of people (such as a nation), and activities (such as manufacturing a product).
The Ecological Footprint of a person is calculated by considering all of the biological materials consumed and all of the carbon dioxide emissions generated by that person in a given year. All these materials and emissions are then individually translated into an equivalent number of global hectares.
To accomplish this, the amount of material consumed by that person (tonnes per year) is divided by the yield of the specific land or sea area (annual tonnes per hectare) from which it was harvested, or where its waste material was absorbed. The number of hectares that result from this calculation are then converted to global hectares using yield and equivalence factors. The sum of the global hectares needed to support the resource consumption and absorb their carbon dioxide emissions that person's Ecological Footprint.
The Ecological Footprint of a group of people, such as a city or a nation, is simply the sum of the Ecological Footprint of all the residents of that city or nation. It is also possible to construct an Ecological Footprint of production for a city or nation, which instead sums the Ecological Footprint of all resources extracted and CO2 emissions generated within the borders of the city or nation.
The Ecological Footprint of an activity, such as producing a good (an airplane) or service (providing insurance) in the human economy, is calculated by summing the Ecological Footprint of all of the material consumed and CO2 emitted during that activity. When calculating the Footprint of a business or an organization, the activities to be included within the boundaries of that organization must be clearly defined.
A global hectare is a common unit that encompasses the average productivity of all the biologically productive land and sea area in the world in a given year. Biologically productive areas include cropland, forest and fishing grounds, and do not include deserts, glaciers and the open ocean.
Using a common unit, i.e., global hectares, allows for different types of land to be compared using a common denominator. Equivalence factors are used to convert physical hectares of different types of land, such as cropland and pasture, into the common unit of global hectares.
Global hectares can also be converted into global acres.
The term Ecological Footprint, capitalized, is a proper name referring to a specific research question: how much of the biological capacity of the planet is required by a given human activity or population? Often, the word 'footprint' is used generically to refer to human impact on the planet, or to a different research question. For example, the term 'carbon footprint' often refers to the number of tonnes of carbon emitted by a given person or business during a year, or to the tonnes of carbon emitted in the manufacture and transport of a product. There is a carbon component to the Ecological Footprint. It measures the amount of biological capacity, in global hectares, demanded by human emissions of fossil carbon dioxide.
The term Ecological Footprint has been deliberately excluded from trademark to encourage its widespread use. Global Footprint Network strives to maintain the value of this term by encouraging our partners and others using the word footprint or Ecological Footprint to apply the term consistently, using the definition found in the Ecological Footprint Standards (www.footprintstandards.org). Global Footprint Network encourages research answering different questions to be referred to as something other than Ecological Footprint.
How does the Ecological Footprint relate to carrying capacity?
Carrying capacity is a technical term that refers to the maximum population of a species that a given land or marine area can support. Many species have easily defined and consistent consumption needs, making carrying capacity relatively easy to define and calculate. For humans, however, carrying capacity estimates require assumptions about future per-person resource consumption, standards of living and "wants" (as distinct from "needs"), productivity of the biosphere, and advances in technology. An area's carrying capacity for humans is thus inherently speculative and difficult to define.
Ecological Footprint accounts approach the carrying capacity question from a different angle. Ecological Footprints are not speculative estimates about a potential state, but rather are an accounting of the past. Instead of asking how many people coulddata sets. be supported on the planet, the Ecological Footprint asks the question in reverse and considers only present and past years. The Footprint asks how many planets were necessary to support all of the people that lived on the planet in a given year, under that year's standard of living, biological production and technology. This is a scientific research and accounting question that can be answered through the analysis of documented, historical
The Footprint tracks current human demand on nature in terms of the area required to supply the resources used and absorb the CO2 emitted in providing goods and services. Trade is accounted for by allocating this demand to the country that ultimately consumes these goods and services. This accounting reflects import and export flows, but makes no judgment regarding the benefits, disadvantages or fairness of trade. The Ecological Footprint is therefore neither pro- nor anti-trade.
As new technologies come on line that affect biocapacity and resource-efficiency, their impact on resource supply and demand are reflected in biocapacity and Footprint assessments. In other words, the Footprint and biocapacity results reported in any given year are in part a function of the technology used in that year. This accounting does not judge whether the use of a technology is positive or negative, but only shows how the technology impacts resource flows. Footprint assessments are historical rather than predictive, and make no judgment about the value of technologies that may become available in the future.
The Footprint approach is neither pro- nor anti-GDP. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is an economic indicator used to track the annual value added to an economy. For a more comprehensive understanding of national trends, additional indicators are required--unemployment statistics, longevity figures, or ecological asset measures, for example. Global Footprint Network is working to have nations adopt the Ecological Footprint as a complement to, rather than as a substitute for, the GDP, and has set a specific goal in this regard--to have 10 nations adopt the Ecological Footprint by 2015 as a national indicator, in parallel with their use of the GDP.
Though they are often compared and contrasted, Ecological Footprints and Water Footprints are, as indicators, fundamentally incapable of being substituted. The Ecological Footprint does not, and is not intended to measure freshwater flows. Because this is nevertheless a vital renewable resource, in 2002, A.Y. Hoekstra proposed that the Water Footprint be created as a sustainable water use indicator measuring the total volume of freshwater directly or indirectly used by a population.
In essence, the Ecological Footprint measures the biological capacity a population uses and the Water Footprint measures the freshwater a population uses. They each provide a different piece of information in the sustainability puzzle. Instead of being seen as competing metrics, they should be seen as two complementary indicators of natural capital use in relation to human consumption.
For more information on the similarities and differences between the Ecological and Water Footprints, please consult A.Y. Hoeksta's recent article Human appropriation of natural capital: A comparison of ecological footprint and water footprint analysis.

This is the time of year, that we learn to give
And the greatest gift is learning to forgive.
We will have the best that time we ever knew
If あなた forgive me and I forgive you
I don't want to light a fire
Unless it will warm your heart
I'm playin no holiday songs
I need あなた to sing your part
And baby if I could have just one wish come true
I don't wanna spend one もっと見る クリスマス without you
It's so hard to believe
We're staring at the end
Daughtry - Life After あなた lyrics:
Ten miles from town, and i just broke down
Spittin' out smoke on the side of the road
I'm out here alone, just trying to get home
To tell あなた i was wrong, but あなた already know
Believe me, i won't stop at nothin'
To see あなた so i've started runnin'
All that i'm after is a life full of laughter
As long as i'm laughing with you
I'm thinkin' that all that still matters is 愛 ever after
Runt: God, what large teeth あなた have!
Princess: あなた look cold.
Runt: No... well, just... (shivers) Okay, i'm freezing.
Princess: And probably hungry.
Runt: I... i'm a picky eater... just warning you.
(Princess throws him a steak)
Runt: But i can be flexible.
(Runt eats the steak)
Runt: Mmm, yummy! (burps and smiles cutely; gives the rest of the ステーキ to Princess)
Princess: Why aren't あなた eating the rest? Don't あなた know how scarce meat is?
while Kate and Humphrey are spending the night under the tree, Humphrey has a dream, which shows how he first met and fell in 愛 with Kate when he was a puppy.
(in Humphrey's dream)
Mooch: (to Humphrey) Dude, there's this new girl in the park. Her name's Kate, and あなた gotta meet her. She's awesome and hot.
Humphrey: I'm not sure if i can.
Salty: Ah, come on! It'll be fine.
Shakey: Yeah!
Humphrey: Well, i guess a give-it-a-shot won't hurt.
so, even though "Alpha and Omega 2" still has a 58% rating, i been hearing people hating on the ending. and i been thinking why so much hate. i mean, i know it's your opinion, but c'mon! no, it's not as bad as あなた say.
the movie ends with Kate, Humphrey and the 子犬 getting trapped によって the winter, so they spend the night at the souvenir shop/gas station from the first movie. now, everybody's being going nuts about this ending. some people are calling it the worst ending ever made, and they're even giving the ending 0/10 ratings. but i'm here to set the record straight: is the ending as...
so, "Alpha and Omega" was awesome, hilarious, sweet, emotional and 全体, 全体的です a fantastic movie. now, that the awesome sequel came out in October, let's review it! i'm really happy it was made.
"Alpha and Omega 2: A Howl-iday Adventure". alright, so y'all know this: i'm a huge "Alpha and Omega" fanatic, i 愛 this first movie, it was amazing and it had everything i was looking for. i don't give a shit what others say, as long as i 愛 this movie, that's what matters. and finally, in October we get the sequel we always been waiting for. so in "Alpha and Omega 2", we get to see Kate and...
well, as we all know, "Alpha and Omega 2" got mixed to positive reviews, with critics saying it's an improvement over the first movie (in terms of story, script, character depth, voice acting, humor and heartwarming scenes). The movie currently has a 59% rating in Rotten Tomatoes (9 good reviews, 7 bad reviews) and some critics even 発言しました it's one of the best straight-to-DVD sequels out there.
i do agree with most of that (and i gotta say again, i absolutely loved Alpha and Omega 2), but i can't say it's a 100% improvement over the first movie. i mean yeah, the jokes are funnier; there...
so i was just hanging around the internet, checking for info on A&O 3 and 4, then in IMDb i saw that somebody listed a 一覧 of 12 songs for A&O 2. now i got no idea if these songs r actually the soundtrack of the movie, but i did heard that they were originally gonna use this songs in it, but the movie couldn't b longer than 45 mins, so they didn't use any of them. here's the 一覧 (and none of the songs were listed in the end credits since they didn't use em in the movie):
"No Life After You" によって Daughtry
This movie is cool but I think they need to improve on the アニメーション a bit もっと見る I'm not trying to be mean but it could use some work the pups need a better デザイン but their cute tho if あなた look closely in the movie it needs a little もっと見る work the voice 芝居 is Good they got the timing just right it got a little boring after a while but it was interesting and cool the New characters are cool the plot is a クリスマス like plot I have a feeling this should have been released in December then October because its a クリスマス like movie this is a short review tho I did enjoy the movie The rating...

LONGMONT -- Oskar Blues is headed for the hills.
Fresh off celebrating the 15th anniversary of Oskar Blues Grill & Brew last weekend in Lyons, the Longmont-based brewer announced its first venture outside the Centennial State, a restaurant/music venue and brewery in Brevard, N.C.
In a statement released late Tuesday, founder Dale Katechis, a mountain biking enthusiast, said he has kept a bike in Brevard, on the edge of the Pisgah National Forest, for years, and travels there frequently to go mountain biking and to attend the annual Mountain Song Music Festival.
"This place rings true with the same eclectic mountain charm that inspired Oskar Blues to put Dale's Pale Ale in a can back in the day in Lyons," Katechis said in a statement announcing his plans.
His company has signed a contract on a 30,000-square-foot brewery space adjacent to a 6,000-square-foot restaurant and music venue in downtown Brevard, which he said, has a "small town main street tone" similar to Lyons.
The company has been looking at taking its Colorado operations "to the next level," Katechis said in the statement, but opening a smaller venue in a community he has an affinity for struck him as "a lot more fun," as well as allowing the company to save on shipping costs, as more than 35 percent of its beer is sold east of the Mississippi River.
The new venue should be up and running by December, the company said.
Oskar Blues made other news Tuesday when it announced that it and Indiana-based Sun King Brewery are collaborating on a new limited-release beer they are calling CHAKA, a Belgian-style ale that will be packaged in 16-ounce, resealable aluminum bottles made by Ball Corp.
The two breweries worked closely with Ball and Cask Brewing Systems on the design of the Alumi-Tek bottle, which will be used for limited-release beers and for Oskar Blues' new B. Stiff & Sons Old Fashioned Root Beer.
The connection between Oskar Blues and Sun King dates back 15 years, when Dave Chichura, now Oskar Blues' head brewer, started his professional brewing career in Indianapolis and became friends with the two men who founded Sun King. They had been talking for years about working together on creating a beer and are excited to do it while introducing new packaging available to craft brewers, according to a joint statement by the two breweries.

Bear - General Regulations
|Daily Limit: 1
Two black bear may be taken during the archery season or firearms season, or one each in the archery and firearms seasons combined provided that at least one bear must be taken in Boone, Fayette, Kanawha, Logan, McDowell, Mingo, Nicholas, Raleigh or Wyoming counties. No person may take more than one bear per day.
To hunt black bear, hunters must possess one of the following valid license combinations: resident license (Classes X+DS, Classes XJ+DS, Classes AHJ+DS, Class XS, Classes AB-L+DS, Classes A-L+DS, Classes A+CS+DS+BG or Classes AH+CS+DS+BG); or a free license (Military, Disabled Veteran, former POW, Senior Citizen or Class DT); or nonresident license (Classes EE+DS+CS/LE or Class DT). Underage residents and resident landowners (see page 10) hunting on their own land may hunt bear without a license. Class DT license holders must be accompanied by a parent, guardian or, with written consent of the parent or guardian, any other competent licensed adult 21 years of age or older.
Additional licenses must be purchased:
These penalties are not subject to suspension by the court.
First Offense
$1,000 to $5,000 fine or 30 to 100 days in jail, or both. Also includes suspension of hunting and fishing licenses for two years.
Second Offense
$2,000 to $7,000 fine or 30 days to one year in jail, or both. Also includes suspension of hunting and fishing licenses for life.
Third Offense
FELONY - $5,000 to $10,000 fine or one to five years in prison, or both.
Each person killing a bear must attach a completed field tag to the bear or remain with the bear and have upon their person a completed field tag before moving the carcass from where it was killed. A person who does not have a tag must make one. This tag must bear the hunter's name, address, hunting license number (if required) and the date, time and county of kill. Immediately upon arriving at a residence, camp, hunting lodge, vehicle or vessel, the field tag shall be attached to the bear and must remain on the carcass until it is tagged with an official game checking tag.
A person killing a bear must, within 24 hours after the kill, transport the bear or its fresh skin to a Natural Resource Police officer or an official game checking station for retagging. A checking tag must be affixed to the bear before any part of it may be transported more than 75 miles from the point of kill, and shall remain on the skin until it is tanned or mounted.
No person may transport or possess wildlife killed by another hunter, unless the wildlife or parts thereof is accompanied by a paper tag filled out legibly bearing the signature, address,date of kill, hunting license number (if required) and the official game checking tag number (if required) of the hunter who killed the wildlife. The tag shall also specify the species and quantity of wildlife.
The same licenses required for bear hunting are required for the training of dogs on bear.
Training for nonresidents is permitted during any open small game season.
The DNR is currently studying factors related to the productivity and mortality of black bears in West Virginia. As part of this research effort, radio collars, ear tags and lip tattoos have been placed on a number of bears. Anyone observing a bear wearing a radio collar or ear tag is asked to report the number of the tag (if obtainable) to the DNR. Hunters who harvest a bear with a radio collar and/or ear tag should return this equipment to the DNR.
Successful bear hunters can contribute to this research effort by either pulling or allowing a small tooth or
two to be pulled and submitted to the bear project. Hunters pulling a bear tooth should refer to the accompanying diagram.
Use a screwdriver to pry out the small teeth located just in back of the large canines as shown. This is
difficult to do without breaking the roots, so work slowly.
Each tooth pulled should be taped to an index card, placed in a small envelope and labeled with the hunter's name, county of kill, bear weight, sex and check tag number and dropped off at an official game checking station or mailed to the DNR at: Elkins Operationn Center, PO Box 67, Elkins, WV 26241. After processing the tooth, the DNR will provide you with the age of the animal. If you do not collect a tooth, please contact the appropriate District DNR office to make arrangements for a tooth to be collected prior to processing the bear or disposing of the skull.
A tagged bear may have been tranquilized. Please contact the District Wildlife Biologist prior to consumption of meat.
WV Wildlife Biologists are continuing to collect female bear reproductive tracts. Information from these tracts, as well as a premolar tooth from each bear, will reveal such data as breeding ages of females, number of cubs produced, age structure of the female population and reproductive success. Please help us obtain as much information as possible by following the outlined procedures. You may call any District DNR office or the Elkins Operations Center for assistance.

Asian cuisine refers to any of several major regional cuisines, including East Asian, Southeast Asian, South Asian, Central Asian, and Middle Eastern. A cuisine is a characteristic style of cooking practices and traditions,[1] usually associated with a specific culture. Asia, being the largest and most populous continent, is home to many cultures, many of which have their own characteristic cuisine.

Asian recipes were casually shared among the womenfolk in Asia, who generally got together after a long day's work, to discuss the day's events. Many of these recipes were guarded as important family secrets and carefully passed down from one generation to another. Asian cooking has enormous potential in modern times, as Asian food chains are springing up all over the world very rapidly, and are also enjoying immense popularity.

Since the end of the recession, Greater Rochester has performed admirably. From 2009 to 2011, the Brookings Institution's Metro Monitor program repeatedly ranked this region among the nation's top 20 metropolitan areas in performance during the economic recovery.
The latest Metro Monitor report suggests, however, that the local economy faces a challenge in trying to maintain this level of performance. The report shows Rochester ranked 43rd overall among the top 100 metro areas in the second quarter, down from 40th in the first three months of the year.
Rochester continues to do well, relative to its low point during the recession, in some of the main indicators: economic output (10th), house prices (28th) and employment (33rd). But this area's unemployment ranking is near the bottom, 93rd.
A closer look at the data reveals another characteristic of the recovery here that could signal a longer-term challenge for the local economy. Employment growth shows a concentration in what economists refer to as non-tradable industries. These include real estate and construction, retail, government and many services.
Non-tradable activities are those confined to the local market. By contrast, tradable activities operate in the global arena.
Jobs in non-tradable industries tend to pay less than those in tradable sectors such as manufacturing. What's more, they do not bring new wealth into the community.
And here's another reason why the tradable sector is important: It enables local companies to take advantage of rapidly growing markets abroad.
Indeed, as Brookings senior fellow Amy Liu noted in a recent speech, companies focused on international sales have driven the recovery in economic output. "Exports were responsible for 46 percent of U.S. GDP growth between 2010 and 2011-which is remarkable since exports make up only 13 percent of the GDP of the U.S.," she noted.
This region traditionally has been a per-capita export leader; Brookings ranks Rochester 18th in exports as a share of metro GDP. But the growth rate of exports locally during the recovery ranked only 73rd.
Rochester's future economic performance is likely to depend on the ability of local businesses to compete in the global marketplace.

It's time for school, but don't forget the importance of playtime
"The new school year is an exciting time as parents, teachers and administrators try to ensure children succeed in the classroom. But it's also a good time to remember one of the essential ingredients in a child's success – play." continues
Sacramento Bee.

Play is critical to the physical, cognitive and emotional health of children. The American Academy of Pediatrics says play is so central that it should be part of the very definition of childhood, while the United Nations declares that children have the right to play.
Many forms of play, such as swinging on a swing or climbing a tree, help to build bones and muscles, improve coordination and boost confidence. Playing with simple toys, such as building blocks, helps children develop their intelligence, language skills and imagination. When playing make-believe, children use social and communication abilities such as negotiation, cooperation and sharing – all lifelong skills.
Creative play with words, music and reading is critical to brain development. We know 90 percent of a child's brain development occurs by age 5. Daily exposure to reading, writing, talking, singing and playing helps children develop listening, problem-solving and creative-thinking skills. Reading stories together, especially over and over again, builds vocabulary and helps children learn abstract concepts.
Listening to music, singing along and playing musical instruments can help children develop and recognize patterns, which will assist with language and math skills. Play brings families together and inspires lifelong learning by encouraging children to be active learners through hands-on experiences.
And, let's not forget: Play is fun.

We have an old OSC based store that has been running smooth for about 10+ years currently sitting on a server running PHP 5.2.17 that we have to migrate now to a newer server so we can install SSL certificate.

Pro bike: Fabian Cancellara's Trek Speed Concept Tour de France
Intimidating new machine for Spartacus, plus a look at his Madone
Leopard-Trek strongman Fabian Cancellara was perhaps the most pampered rider in this year's Tour de France – at least in terms of equipment – with a custom designed and finished Trek Madone 6.9 SSL road bike and Speed Concept time trial bike designed in collaboration with graphic artist Joshua M Smith (aka "Hydro74").
While the bikes are very different, both share a similarly menacing theme, with a matte black base and an array of grey graphics playing off of Cancellara's "Spartacus" moniker. Dark grey carved floral patterns are littered throughout the frame (and the rear disc wheel in the case of the time trial bike) but the dominant visual features are the big Spartan helmets on the head tube and top tube, the threatening sword and lucky dice plastered on the stem, and a giant "Spartacus" logo on the top tube.
The broad and flat top tube leaves plenty of room for eye-catching graphics on Fabian Cancellara's custom Trek Speed Concept
Cancellara's road bike is dressed up even further, with baby blue accents on the frame, headset spacers and even the custom tire labels from Schwalbe, and both bikes receive the full Yumeya treatment from Shimano, with gold anodized titanium bolts and even cable end caps.
As for the equipment itself, Trek have pulled out the stops for Leopard-Trek's time trial wizard with their innovative Speed Concept. Rather than use true airfoil sections, as was commonly done in the past, Trek instead use Kamm tail truncated airfoils. These supposedly mimic the aerodynamic performance of sections much deeper than those allowed by the UCI but with aspect ratios that are structurally better suited for weight and stiffness.
Trek say the Speed Concept's Kamm Tail tube shaping mimics the aerodynamic performance of a much deeper airfoil without violating UCI technical guidelines
The proprietary brakes are fully integrated into the external-steerer fork crown and chainstays, the bar and stem present noticeably less frontal area than conventional setups, and the cabling is almost entirely internal from end to end for an ultra-clean surface throughout. Save for the proprietary bits and the SRM crankset, Shimano provide most of the rest of the running gear in the form of their Dura-Ace Di2 electronic group, which is especially useful in this configuration with its multiple shift button locations.
On the day we spotted it, Cancellara's Speed Concept was fitted with a Carbonsports Lightweight carbon rear disc and Bontrager's new Aeolus 5 50mm-deep, wide-profile carbon tubular wheel up front. Finishing bits include Speedplay Zero Stainless pedals, an SRM Power Control 7 computer, and a single Bontrager Speed Bottle (which supposedly improves aerodynamics over not having one mounted).
The rear wheel is covered with a big 'Bontrager' decal but underneath is a Lightweight disc
Position-wise, Cancellara's setup is notable for its emphasis on power. True, his position is plenty aerodynamic but the custom Prologo Nago Evo TTR saddle is pushed roughly 10mm further back than minimum UCI guidelines and the armrest pads are set relatively wide – especially when compared to someone like Garmin-Cervélo's David Zabriskie. Total weight as pictured is 8.41kg (18.54lb).
Save for the custom finish and Yumeya accents, Cancellara's Trek Madone is essentially standard team-issue with two major exceptions: a SRAM PG-1070 cassette in lieu of the Shimano Dura-Ace equivalent (SRAM team liaison Alex Wassmann says he just likes the 11-26T ratio) and while the rest of Leopard-Trek happily use Di2 on their road bikes, the four-time time trial world champion instead sticks with the mechanical Dura-Ace group.
Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 time trial componentry allows Cancellara to shift from either the base bar or the extensions
This is something we initially noticed back at the cobbled spring classics – along with a few other notable riders. Team spokesman Tim Vanderjeugd insists: "It's a simply a matter of preference. Shimano offer the team the choice to use their components of choice. Fabian chooses to use mechanical Dura-Ace on his road bike simple because he prefers the feel. On the TT bike the Di2 offers a distinct advantage with multiple shift points, and Fabian prefers to take advantage of that."

Designing a complex circuit board today can be a daunting task. Never before have PCB designers on the cutting edge faced more formidable challenges, both electrical and mechanical.
This book, written by Freedom CAD COO Scott Miller, provides a set of guidelines for designing the most complex, high-speed circuit boards.
Written by Happy Holden, I-Connect007 consulting technical editor with over 47 years of industry experience, this book provides examples and descriptions of numerous devices, processes, and systems that can be easily implemented into the supply chain. Readers will gain solid knowledge of opportunities and innovations surrounding automation in the PCB industry.
Written by Prototron Circuits' Mark Thompson, an industry veteran with over 38 years of experience, this book describes exactly what a PCB fabricator requires in a design output package and explains the consequences of providing incomplete or inaccurate information. Mark also highlights the importance of earlier communication between the designer and fabricator.
Written by Morgana Ribas and other expert authors from Alpha Assembly Solutions, this book provides an introduction to the evolution of modern low-temperature soldering. Readers will learn the benefits low-temperature alloys have to offer, such as reducing costs, creating more reliable solder joints, and overcoming design limitations with traditional alloys.
Considering thermal issues in the earliest stages of the design process is critical. Written by Didier Mauve, sales and marketing manager at Ventec International Group, and Ian Mayoh, technical support manager, this book highlights the need to dissipate heat from electronic devices.
Written by John Bushie, director of technology at American Standard Circuits, and Anaya Vardya, president and CEO, this micro eBook provides information needed to understand the unique challenges of RF PCBs. The authors answer two main questions: what is the correct material to use for a particular project, and what can be done at the design stage to make a product more manufacturable?
Signal integrity issues remain a concern for many in the electronics industry. This micro eBook details the importance of eliminating signal integrity challenges. Written by signal integrity engineer Fadi Deek of Mentor Siemens, the chapters explore four possible signal integrity problems using an understanding of essential signal integrity principles.
Written by signal/power integrity specialist Fadi Deek of Mentor, A Siemens Business, this micro eBook provides a thorough investigation of power distribution network performance. Deek addresses problematic issues within electronic transmissions, and presents a variety of simulations and analyses in every chapter.
This is an easily digestible guide for individuals involved in the procurement or specification of conformal coatings, especially for PCBs that are required to perform in harsh environments. This book can help you find a safe path through the minefield of available coatings, while dispelling many commonly held myths and addressing a variety of critical issues.
If you're a PCB designer or design engineer, chances are you're probably dealing with high-speed PCBs and their attendant issues. Part 1 of this book covers Specifying, Modelling and Measuring. Not just for designers, this book will appeal to buyers, salespeople, recent graduates and marketing professionals.
This book, The Printed Circuit Designer's Guide to…Secrets of High-Speed PCBs: Part 2, is a must-read, not just for designers, but for anyone involved with, or confused by, high-speed PCBs: purchasing agents, salespeople, marketing professionals, recent graduates, etc.
This concise and highly useful book on flexible circuits from American Standard Circuits was written to provide circuit designers, both new and seasoned, with valuable and important information that will help to assure their first pass success in getting their products to market.
Solder has been a loyal servant of the electronics manufacturing industry for years; however, like any aging servant, the efficacy of solder has been waning as the industry looks to make products.
This eBook has something to offer for the seasoned designer and the newbie. After reading this eBook, PCB designers will have all the DFM knowledge they need to eliminate costly design re-spins and get a good board back, every time.
This micro eBook is first in the Buyer's Guide series that was written to give you the essential information needed regarding AS9100 certification in a concise and easy-to-read format. Print-on-demand also available.
Reflow soldering of through hole components can simplify the entire assembly process for companies running tin/lead or lead-free and continue to maintain the quality and reliability of the products being built. The reflow-only process can also eliminate the cost and waste associated with wave and selective soldering.
The widespread use of new electronic components employing Ball-Grid Array (BGA), Chip Scale Packaging (CSP), and other evolving technology form-factors means new fabrication techniques must be used to create printed circuit boards (PCBs) that will accommodate parts with extremely tight lead pitches and small geometries.
Right the First Time explains why many PCB designers and design engineers currently see getting a design right the first time as a foreign concept. The trial-and-error design method has been the rule, not the exception, since the advent of transistor-transistor logic (TTL).
In the global economy that is today's business environment, there are no guarantees. In this environment, the big continue to get bigger through acquisition or elimination of the competition. Never before has US manufacturing had to look over our shoulder as we do now.
Flexible Circuit Technology, 4th Edition provides the basic knowledge required to design, manufacture and use flexible circuits while avoiding many of the potential problems that may be encountered by those who attempt to learn from their own experiences.


text: There was a bit of misinformation about the difference between the BLAST and FASTA programs for protein and DNA sequence comparison program. Both BLAST and FASTA search for local sequence similarity - indeed they have exactly the same goals, though they use somewhat different algorithms and statistical approaches. The advantage of an ES40 or other large shared memory machine for BLAST is that it has been optimized for searching databases that are large memory mapped files, and it runs multithreaded. PVM and MPI versions of BLAST are not available, but, it is important to remember that BLAST is extremely fast, and highly optimized to go through a large amount of memory very quickly; it would be difficult to provide an equally efficient distributed version - but, of course, a distributed memory machine would be much cheaper. PVM and MPI versions of FASTA are available. FASTA actually is a package of about a dozen programs that vary more than 100-fold in speed. It is easy to make efficient PVM/MPI versions of the slower algorithms (Smith-Waterman, TFASTY, TFASTX); parallel versions of the FASTA algorithm are less efficient. How to benchmark BLAST and FASTA - As Greg Lindahl pointed out, the appropriate platform for BLAST (less so for FASTA) depends on the size of the database. Very few databases are larger than 2 Gb (I think the person who said he had an 80 Gb database was mistaken - the largest publically available sequence database, Genbank, currently has 17Gb of sequence data). In contrast, protein sequence databases are much smaller, typically 50 - 500 Mb). If you would like to try searching some protein or DNA sequence databases, they are available from ftp.ncbi.nih.gov/blast/db. nr.Z and swissprot.Z are two representative protein sequence databases, nt.Z and est_mouse.Z are representative DNA databases. Simply select 10 - 100 sequences at random from these databases and run them against the full size databases. Bill Pearson

Marching Orders for Congress from One Citizen
This is an open letter to Senators John Thune, Tim Johnson of South Dakota, and the other 98 members of the greatest deliberative body in the world. This is also for re-elected Congresswoman Kristie Noem of South Dakota and her 434 colleagues.
The lame duck session of Congress will be the most important work days of your lives and the most important for the citizens of this country and our future. You have to prove yourselves worthy of the awesome responsibility we have placed in you. As you know recent polls show our trust in you is at an all time low.
To refresh you memories: I am working at a job I love; Next month I turn 66. I have two children and five grandchildren. All of my life I have been a Republican. I have voted for Democrats when I felt they were the best person for the job. Tim Johnson, you are on that list. This year I voted for any Independent or Libertarian on the ballot. My frustration with your lack of ability to get things done is at an all time high.
As one of your employers, want to give you instructions for tasks I expect to be accomplished before the end of the year:
You need to find a way to rationally deal with the cuts coming due to "sequestration." To be clear, I expect you to compromise. Realize that is a dirty word in the beltway, on right and left wing talk radio, and probably not what your minions are telling you. However, without compromise on this critical issue, you will be leading us off the "fiscal" cliff. The good news, as our leaders, you will hit the ground first. The bad news, we will perish with you.
The House needs to vote on the Farm Bill. I don't care if it passes or fails. I expect a vote, so all of us will know who stands where, and why, so you can begin the process of compromise.
To save this country from financial ruin, you are going to have to make difficult choices. I understand that reality. If you are afraid to make them, please leave office now, so we can put somebody in who has thick enough skin to make the choices and stand the bruising which will come from those affected.
You have my permission, to raise the retirement age, remove the salary cap on those paying into social security. If you think some "means testing" is appropriate, I am open to that concept. You have my permission to alter Medicare, I am not on it yet, but I know it is one of the big financial problems we are facing.
Keep cutting waste. Keep going after tax evaders.
My expectations from the federal government are very simple: Safe food to eat, clean water to drink, and air to breathe. Our country should be secure from foreign invasion and we should have enough resources to root out those folks, foreign and domestic, who want to do harm to our people and systems.
I need a safe, secure, and non- corrupt banking and financial system. I want the government to be a resource for me to get information, about education, commerce, energy, etc. I don't want you ordering me to do things a certain way.
Please don't waste any more of my time, and your voice power complaining about those dastardly.(fill in the blank). From my perspective you have all earned the lack of trust you have from me and your other employers.
To use a sports metaphor, we are in the closing minutes of the game. If we don't win this one, our chances of playing another are limited. I am in the stands and can't be on the field. Although I wish I was. You are there, I have chosen you to represent me on the field. I expect your very best for the rest of this game.
I expect positive results.
Do it.

6DOF Digital IMU
Digital IMU Combo Board - 6 Degrees of Freedom using ITG-3200 gyro and ADXL345 accelerometer.
This is a simple breakout for the ADXL345 accelerometer and the ITG-3200 gyro, giving full 6 degrees of freedom. The sensors communicate over I2C and one INT output pin from each sensor is broken out, see the schematics below.
The schematics is also available as PDF.[1] Eagle files are available from the Sparkfun product page.[2]
This is a 3.3V device and therefore it needs a level converter to connect it to a 5V Arduino. Remember to use the TX lines to get bi-directional conversion.
Uses I2C bus:
- ITG-3200 address: 0xD0 for write and 0xD1 for read.
- ADXL345 address: 0xA6 for write and 0xA7 for read.
There is an example application on GitHub, see https://github.com/a1ronzo/6DOF-Digital .
On Arduino we can also use the Wire library. However, note that the Wire library uses 7 bit addresses. In fact, I2C addresses are only the upper 7 bit the last bit indicating whether we read (1) or write(0). For the case of the ITG-3200:
- Write: 0xD0 = 11010000
- Read: 0xD1 = 11010001
There is the issue of Wire library not supporting reading from a specific register[3]. As the discussion shows, there is a workaround and the new readFrom method will be included in Arduino 023. Moreover, the page links to ADXL345 and ITG-3200 drivers specifically written for Arduino[4][5].
