Fluorescent light tubes have been used by marijuana growers for years. They are mostly used to increase the production of buds, while also decreasing the shadows cast upon other plants. In this instance, most growers also use HID lights overhead, but now there are plenty more options available. You can choose from plasma lamps, LEDs, HO, fluorescent lights and even HID lamps. These are available in various wattages, not to mention that the colour of the light can also affect the growth, so what light is best for growing marijuana and what conditions should you use?
LED Lights
LED lights are incredibly energy efficient, which makes them suitable for long term usage. You will also find that many LED lights are available in reds and oranges, which means that they will support the growth of the plant. Most LEDs are fitted with blue lights as well, so you really do get the best of both worlds without having to pay extra out for different colours and wattages. A good LED light will put out around 300-600 watts per panel, and these normally do deliver the best results so if you plan to install LED lights in your marijuana garden, make sure that you purchase a quality light that supports this wattage.
High Powered LEDs
If you don't have a lot of space in your home, then you may want to use strain selection as well as some high-output LEDs as an overhead light as opposed to HIDs. This will allow you to achieve a higher potency, which is great if you don't have a lot of plants or a lot of growing space.
Whatever you need, LEDs remain to be one of the best choice of lights for growing marijuana, and it can really help you to achieve the ideal yield and potency for your requirements.

It turns out there was top-secret engineering work at Bletchley the weekend before Christmas, and there was only one train an hour going anywhere for the West Coast main line from Euston. I'd been a bit nervous about travelling on Sunday anyway, because there is only one bus an hour from Burghfield, but that leg of the journey worked fine. Euston was appallingly chaotic, with British Transport Police having to hold the fort. Neither my train nor the one before had arrived by the time mine was due to depart; in the end we left about half an hour late. We crawled through north London - or so I thought, until I saw platform signs for Acton Main Line and West Ealing. For a moment I thought the train was going to retrace my steps and go through Reading, but it turned off through Greenford and I metaphorically waved to rosamicula as we passed Northolt.
The only stopping point on that leg was Coventry; after that, the train crew decided to turn off the heating and the train noticeably chilled. We were held outside Nuneaton - by now over an hour late - for 15 minutes or so. Nuneaton turns out to have the worst station signage and loudspeakers ever, with only one display board; I avoided the Manchester train and got on to the next train north, sat unchallenged in a reserved seat (of course by now everyone was on a different train to the one they'd booked). The train manager on the route to Nuneaton struggled to deviate from his script and continued to say he hoped we'd had a pleasant "travel experience"; at least his colleague on the train to Glasgow acknowledged that most people on the train had already suffered disruption and inconvenience. I arrived an hour and a half late.
Dad was fine and although the weather wasn't great, it wasn't terrible either. I'd watched the news and ironically, the only part of England and Wales not covered by flood warnings was the Lake district. We had Christmas dinner with some of his friends; we'll gloss over who knocked the glass of red wine as serving bowls were being passed around.
Somehow the FreeSat PVR failed to record Doctor Who on Christmas Day; we both noticed some problems and I wonder if one of the tuners is broken (it has two, so you can watch one channel while recording another). Fortunately I caught the repeat on Boxing Day. I didn't have high hopes, but actually I thought that was one of the better Christmas specials. It took me a while to join all of the dots but I liked the references to the classic series and I imagine we'll see rather more of those as the 50th anniversay approaches.
My return train was already ten minutes late when I boarded it, and as I suspected, the first class carriages were fairly full (though still civilised, apparently unlike the state of the cattle class carriages). We arrived in to Euston about three-quarters of an hour late, and so I missed the planned connection from Paddington. Unfortunately this cascaded because of another 10-minute hold up waiting for a platform at Reading, which led to missing the bus by minutes and having to wait an hour because it was a Saturday service and I'd just fallen into the evening part of the schedule. I had wondered whether to go for the earlier train - unfortunately to get the cheaper fares it would have been three hours earlier - but with hindsight it would have been the right decision and I shall have to try to remember that for next year.

Special education means specially designed instruction to meet the unique educational needs of a child with a disability. It can include instruction, accommodations/modifications, supports, and related services needed as determined by the child's individualized education program (IEP) team. The parent is a necessary component and is always invited to participate as a team member. The steps in the special education process are listed in the table below. For more information, you may want to look at the VDOE document, Parents Guide to Special Education.
Special Education Advisory Committee (SEAC)
Local Special Education Advisory Committees (SEACs) are typically made up of parents, people with disabilities, a teacher, and community volunteers who have a desire to improve services and outcomes for students with disabilities. Members often rotate on and off the committee and come with different experiences and skills as committee participants and leaders. Those who find themselves in positions of leadership have the important job of guiding the committee in getting organized, developing, and implementing a plan for what the committee will do, as well as outlining how the local SEAC will assist their school division in identifying and addressing unmet needs of students with disabilities.
|Meeting Date
|Tuesday, November 17, 2020 at 9 a.m.
Meeting ID
Phone Numbers
Questions related to SEAC can be directed to the Special Education Department at 540-743-6533 ext 2819.
- All meetings are held at the Central Offices at 735 W. Main Street, Luray, VA 22835
- All meetings will begin at 9:00 am
- Please contact the administrative assistant (see contact information to the left) to RSVP if you are interested in attending this meeting. All SPED parents are welcome.
Special Education Process
Identification and Referral
When parents or school staff notice that a student might need special help, they should give that information to the school system. A team will gather information and decide if an evaluation is needed. Information given by the parents is very important. Anyone who has a vested interest in the child's education can refer the student to the Child Study Team. Contact your child's building administrator to complete the referral request.
An evaluation is a careful look by a team of teachers and specialists at a student's abilities, strengths, and areas of need. It provides information about the student's educational needs and will also include information provided from the parents. Information given by the parent is very important.
Determination of Eligibility
In order for a student to receive special education services, the student must meet the criteria of one or more of the thirteen disability categories which adversely affects educational performance. At the eligibility meeting, a team of qualified professionals and the parents of the student make a decision as to whether or not a student meets the requirements to receive special education services. If the student is found eligible, then an IEP will be developed and special education services will begin.
Development of an IEP and Determination of Services
An Individualized Education Program (IEP) describes the educational plan that has been designed to meet the child's unique needs. Each child who receives special education and related services must have an IEP. The IEP is developed with a group of individuals such as teachers, parents/guardians, administrators, related services personnel, and student (when appropriate) who work collaboratively to create a plan that provides meaningful benefit for the student with a disability.
Special education services include a variety of options that allow the student to access the general curriculum. Teachers provide special education services across a continuum of service options that range from the least restrictive to the most restrictive. Students receive services determined by their specific needs. Related services mean developmental, corrective or supportive services required for a child with a disability to benefit from special education, including: assistive technology, occupational therapy, physical therapy, social and behavioral services, speech-language therapy, vision services, hearing services, and transportation.
Review and Re-evaluation
Annual Review - At least once a year, the IEP team meets to review/revise the student's IEP.

J. Korean War (1950 – 1953)
During the Cold War between the Soviet Union and the United States, Korea was split into two regions, with separate governments. Since both governments claimed to be the "real" government of all of Korea, a conflict eventually escalated into open warfare on June 25, 1950. After the North Korean invasion, the United Nations Security Council called for an immediate ceasefire. Twenty-one countries from the United Nations contributed to the UN force, with the United States providing 88% of the UN's military personnel.
The fighting ended on July 27, 1953, when an armistice was signed. The agreement created the Korean Demilitarized Zone to separate North and South Korea. Since no peace treaty has been signed, the two Koreas are still at war until this day.

Dennis Black avoids jail time after stealing more than $300,00 in state funds
Black received five years probation, community service for two felony charges
Former UB Vice President Dennis Black received five years probation Friday morning after pleading guilty in September to stealing more than $300,000 from university bank accounts and avoiding taxes on the illegal funds, a separate felony charge.
State Supreme Court Justice John L. Michalski said he believed Black's criminal acts warranted at least a year in county jail, but because sentencing guidelines would only allow Black to serve a state prison sentence – an option Black's defense attorney Brian Mahoney argued was unfair considering Black's full restitution and many years of public service – Michalski sentenced him instead to five years probation, 2,500 hours community service and a $5,000 fine. Michalski mentioned that Black's community service could not involve handling money or bank accounts.
"You're not to be trusted in that regard," Michalski said.
The sentence went against District Attorney John Flynn's recommendation that Black receive some amount of prison time.
Co-prosecutor Assistant District Attorney Candace Vogel also argued for jail time for Black in her statement.
"This is not a man who made a mistake one day, this is not a freak aberration," she said. "This was calculated activity. It went on year after year, charge after charge, and trip after trip and all this time he was portraying himself as the great volunteer and philanthropist. The people would request that Mr. Black receive some incarceration."
Mahoney argued that this same public stage has led Black to suffer greatly already from his actions.
"Mr. Black has paid a real price in the damage done to his reputation and he has suffered public humiliation which is understandable giving his actions," Mahoney said. "We just ask that this court take that into account."
Black himself offered a remorseful statement to the court in which he apologized for the "negative consequences" of his actions on the university community, his family and friends.
"I know I'll never be able to make up to that what I've done but I'll forever keep trying," Black said.
The university released a statement following Black's sentencing saying, "Throughout these legal proceedings, we have had confidence in the judicial process. We are pleased that restitution to the university has been made as part of the Mr. Black's guilty plea."

I took a bus from Ljubljana to Budapest, Hungary and got to my airbnb late. My host was from Shanghai and she lost her shit when I spoke to her in Chinese. I went to bed without a drink and woke up at 7 because of the light coming through the window and my anxiety about getting up to Krakow in time. So I spent the morning trying to buy yogurt. I remembered being in Yangshuo with the Argentine dancers and how they ate bananas and yogurt every morning and I got a huge craving for it. So I went to a local grocery but mistook sour cream for yogurt which, when combined with cut-up banana, is a pretty weird tasting breakfast.
I took a walking tour and met Alex, a guy from Syracuse, NY and we chatted for most of the day. The tour was good, and the guide was a tall, gay Hungarian with dark hair, dark skin, and beautiful bright blue eyes. He was definitely Jewish and he delicately walked the line while talking about how Hungary was with the Nazis in the beginning of the war.
Budapest is such an impressive city. I always heard it was one of the most beautiful cities in the world. From the mountains that encircle the city it looks like a powerful paradise, like the original concrete jungle.
Throughout the tour I noticed that I smelled bad and while the guide was explaining the details of the Hungarian language (my favorite part!) I kept nonchalantly trying to smell different parts of my body to see what was up. Finally after bending over to "pick up something I dropped" I realized it was my newly washed jeans. The damp, misty, Slovenian atmosphere didn't dry my pants even though they were hanging for five days. Now there was a coat of mold on them. I only had one pair of jeans without gaping holes in the crotch, and so I'd have to deal with it when the time was right.
After the tour I walked back to the apartment and went out for Hungarian food. It was a dark restaurant on the basement floor of a building. The walls were stone and beautifully decorated. I got the fried stuffed turkey with vegetables on the side which was delicious. There were two women sitting at the table next to me and I think they were from Long Island. Their accents didn't sound too Long–Island-ish but everything they said did. Lot's of New York talk. I spent the first half of the meal reading more of Tropic of Cancer and read his passage about how much the main character hates New York.
New York makes even a rich man feel his unimportance. New York is cold, glittering, malign. The buildings dominate. There is a sort of atomic frenzy to the activity going on; the more furious the pace, the more diminished the spirit. A constant ferment, but it might just as well be going on in a test tube.
With my head down in the book I put a piece of Turkey in my mouth and started choking. It was a slow realization. I tried swallowing harder, and then harder, and then again, but it wouldn't go down. Adrenaline flushed my body as I started to stand and look around, swallowing as hard as I could. This is it. Here we go. Either the heimlich or I'm a dead man. With a glass of water it finally un-wedged and slowly made it's way down my throat. I felt it all the way. I reached out for my glass of white wine and saw my hands were shaking and continued to shake for the rest of the meal as I contemplated what it means to die alone in Budapest while listening to two maybe-long islanders talk about their neighbors.
I mentally recovered and went back to the airbnb. My Chinese host was celebrating her birthday with another guest, a Hungarian student, and I played Happy Birthday for them on my banjo.
The next morning I took a train towards Bratislava, the capitol of Slovakia. It was only a 2 hour trip. From the highest point in the city you can easily see Vienna. Once we got to the station I was stranded in the rain underneath an overpass. There was a Peruvian girl there who was lost and we bonded over the rain and the Spanish.
My friend John was on his way to pick me up. I met John 10 years ago when I worked as a line cook at a seafood restaurant while living at Ocean City, NJ for a summer. Ohhhhhhhh what a summer it was! There was a Slovakian man who cooked with me and he took me to parties at the house where all the Slovaks lived. John was among them. These guys knew how to party. I hadn't seen or talked to John in probably eight years but he jumped at the idea of hanging out. He drove up to the station in a nice BMW and the Peruvian girl and I hopped in. There was trash all over the floor and it seemed that he lived out of it. Well, I'm living out of a backpack so who am I to judge? We dropped the Peruvian at the bus station and John took me back to his apartment.
He opened the door and brought me into what seemed like a dorm room. There was no kitchen and in the one room there were two twin beds next to each other. Jerseys and pictures of athletes covered the walls. There was a bathroom. I became self conscious about my moldy jeans but and tried to avoid getting too close. Maybe he would understand my traveling ways. I sat on a swiveling office chair for a moment and he pulled out a tin can full of weed. At least 10 grams. He rolled a joint and I played the banjo. I was still stuck on everything I experienced in Slovenia and I couldn't get the picture of bald Syd Barret out of my head. Shine On You Crazy Diamond was on repeat in my mind for the next 24 hours. I was trying to figure out the melody in thumb lead when I drifted into a fog and John talked about America. "I had money there," he said. "And I felt free because of that."
Remember when you were young
You shone like the sun
He took me to a small market next to his place. There was a Thai restaurant with all locals so I knew it was good. I housed a noodle soup and then we went back to his place to regroup. I had showered that morning in Budapest but he kept insisting that I shower before I go out so I assumed I reeked of mold.
I had a bus to Krakow at 11pm that night so I only wanted to stay in Bratislava for the day. The next day I was going to visit friends for one night before hanging out with Tom. John wasn't having it. He insisted that I spend the night there and the next morning he would drive me to the center of the country so I could see the scenery and he'd arrange to have a driver take me from Presov, Slovakia to Krakow. I was in no state to argue.
He rolled another joint (massive) and we went to a bar. He ordered us two beers and launched into a tirade about American politics and the state of the world. American arrogance was the topic of affairs. He edged on 9/11 conspiracy theories and I gave him an earful and we moved into more solid ground – Syria. More specifically – the flow of Syrian immigrants. "The immigrants that are flocking to the states do not like the states. They bring that hatred with them. That's what I think," he said.
He called one of the other Slovakian guys I knew from the beach and he invited us to his girlfriend's sister's birthday party. John rolled another enormous joint for the car ride. The party was at a preschool. Yup, that's right, a preschool. I guess the birthday girl who worked there also lived there so . . . that was that. In my post-smoke state I prepared myself to be surrounded by tiny person things.
I wanted to pay for the cab so I grabbed the coins out of my back pocket and after I payed the driver I put the rest in my front pocket. But I wasn't wearing the moldy jeans – I had put on my old jeans with a whole in the pockets just big enough to let coins through. Damnit, Jim! So I walked into the preschool with a bunch of 22 year olds kissing me on the cheek and I felt 15 coins slowly fall down my leg. "Please take your shoes," they said and pointed to a shoe pile. Oh dear. I took off my boots and a bronze coin clanked on the tile. Whoops. I played it off like it fell out of my hand. I was quickly ushered into the main room with a table and chairs designed for 4 year olds and they were all toasting with Jameson. I was trying to keep focus on what people were asking me as a few more coins drifted down my thigh. It felt cold and thrilling. Then the birthday girl did a big toast and her friend popped a confetti bomb all over the place. Yessss!!!!!!!! The confetti was circular and dark and shiny. Success! I can shed coins all night and no one will know. I didn't want to lose too many euro so I spent a good amount of time wandering around picking up coins. What must I have looked like? The smoking had taken me to a new level and I saw there were pretzels on the table so I focused on taking them all while appearing to be interested in conversations.
Now theres a look in your eyes
Like black holes in they sky
I woke up the next morning in my boxers in John's apartment. It was 8am and we needed to get on the road to drive to the middle of the country. John was wondering out loud why there were coins all over the bathroom floor and he pushed me again to take a shower. We drove for three hours through the mountain ranges of central Slovakia. I didn't talk much and John smoked joints out the window.
When we got to Presov we had two hours to spare so we went to a nice restaurant. I had chicken soup to start and then duck leg with cabbage and dumplings. It was heaven.
We met my driver and negotiated a price. It was another two hour ride to Krakow and as soon as we passed the Polish border we got pulled over and the cop wanted to scan all of our IDs. We made it to the Krakow airport and I had one hour until my bus left for Kielce. I was heading there (about two hours outside of Krakow) for one night to see friends I had met previously in Poland. I got to the bus station with no time to spare and presented my ticket to the bus driver.
"Bus to Kielce?" I asked.
He nodded and looked at my reservation number and motioned me onto the bus in an effort to get going. This was the same station where, a month before, I took the wrong train to Auschwitz and went to some obscure town, so I was worried. I sat on the upper deck and settled in. I had the one thought that always means I fucked something up – I'm good at this. I dozed off and an hour later I looked at the map on my phone and saw we were going in the opposite direction of Kielce. I panicked and asked the person across the aisle if the bus was going to Kielce. He looked at me funny and I showed him my ticket. His eyebrows went up and he shook his no. I rushed to the lower deck to ask the driver. He yelled at me for disturbing him while he was driving and I asked other passengers on the lower deck. They informed me that the bus was going to Wroclaw. Not Kielce. I was on the wrong godddamn bus again.
"FffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKK!" I yelled.
I spent a few moments breathing heavy and looking at my shoes. I noticed that everyone was looking at me. I asked what the next stop would be. It was Wroclaw. No early stops. We'd arrive there in three hours. It was already 6pm. No way I was making it to Kielce. A second defeat by the Krakow station. Why not sit right next to the toilet so my world would also smell like shit.
A middle aged blonde woman got my attention and said, "Wait" in a weird accent. A large gentleman came out of the bathroom and talked to her.
"Why did you get on the wrong bus?" the gentleman asked me in broken English.
"I showed the driver my ticket and he put me on board." I pulled out my ticket to show the man and he waved his hand in disgust at the bus driver. He was big, not bad big, but, you know, jolly. He translated everything I said to his wife.
"What is your name?" he asked me.
"James, what will you do?"
"I don't know. I don't know if there are trains to Kielce."
He shook his head and pulled out his phone. I tried to regroup. Wroclaw? What is that? The city sounds terrible. I had slow internet so I let my friends know and they were furious about the bus driver letting me on the wrong bus. The big man next to me was chatting on the phone and I heard the word "James" and "Kielce". He got off the phone and looked at me.
"James," he said. "My daughter lives in Wroclaw and she checked online and there is a train from Wroclaw to Kielce but it takes six hours." What a nice gentleman. I told him thanks. Then he called someone again and after he hung up he informed me that his daughter had found me a hostel to stay in for the night.
Well, well, well. Serge was his name. He was Ukrainian. He and his wife were traveling from Western Ukraine since 6am that morning to visit his daughter who lives in Wroclaw. He was obsessed with my banjo and told me that his youngest daughter plays the Bandura, a traditional Ukrainian instrument. We chatted about everything after that. He served in the Navy for the Soviet Union and was stationed all over the world including Namibia and Angola. He was a talker, and his English was broken, but his kindness banged a gong and it was moving me along. But more about Serge in the coming chapters. When the bus arrived in Wroclaw he waited for me outside and then the three of us walked to meet his daughter who took me to the hostel.

Welcome to NCM!
*This is Part II of a blog that was submitted by an anonymous NCM employee who recently visited local dealerships to purchase a vehicle. See Part I Here.
After finding the perfect car and being thoroughly impressed with the front-end experience at the dealership, I returned to Dealership A and purchased the vehicle from them. This enthusiasm was quickly soured due to the terrible back-end practices used by the finance manager and GSM. I wanted to share this experience with you because—even if one of these mistakes can be avoided in your business—both you and your customers will be happier with their purchase.
At NCM, I encourage and consult about operational improvements. I was pleased to see that my sales consultant was following Road to the Sale process throughout our visit. As a consumer, however, I didn't like seeing the Road to the Sale flyer prominently positioned in his cube. If you're using similar internal flyers, ensure they are stored digitally on the computer's desktop or in a pocket-size guide. While this may seem like a small thing, it appeared unprofessional and made me uncomfortable as a customer to see their process of earning the most gross profit from me prominently displayed on the wall.
After I had selected my new car and signed the sales paperwork, I set an F&I appointment for 11 a.m. a few days later. I came in early to work and planned to complete my appointment over my lunch break. I arrived 10 minutes early, was greeted and lead to the F&I office and was told I'd have to wait for the F&I manager to wrap-up his previous appointment.
Two hours go by, and I am still waiting in the office for the F&I manager. After another 45 minutes, I found my sales consultant and asked if there was someone else who could help me. They only had one F&I manager, he said; so unfortunately, all I could do was continue to wait. At this point, I had no intentions of financing with the dealership or purchasing warranties. Why would I when this is the type of service I can expect for the department? When I finally met with the F&I manager, he let me know that there were other customers who had purchased cars from the showroom while I was waiting. Those customers were a higher priority, and he had to assist them first before helping me. I informed him that my appointment had been set for hours prior, and that I was already late heading back to work because of the lengthy delay. His response: "Appointments are not always guaranteed. You can wait or come back another day." Don't do or say these things to a customer.
Since I had a few hours to kill while waiting for my F&I manager, I looked for a GM or GSM that could potentially assist with getting my appointment started. During my search, I noticed the GSM was running around high-fiving sales consultants, updating the scoreboard (in view of customers?), and checking on customers walking around the showroom. I wondered if she assessed how many people were waiting in line for an appointment or recognize that she may need to be desking deals to create a positive experience. It was clear that variable operations got most of management's attention in this dealership while the other departments were on their own.
It was clear that the F&I department was understaffed and stretched thin. At first, I felt bad for the F&I manager as he seemed overwhelmed and aggravated with his environment. However, that is not an excuse to offload his frustrations onto me—the customer. After three and a half hours of waiting at the dealership, he signed over my paperwork without reviewing any of the options with me. Instead, he chose to sign my paperwork in silence and finally grunted for me to have a nice day as he slid the paperwork over the desk.
This dealership's F&I department needs to work on their processes and customer service skills. As a customer, I would have appreciated the GSM finding time to help get deals moving in F&I rather than only working the showroom.
As I drove home in my new vehicle, I had a lot of mixed feelings about working with my dealership. The sales team was exceptional and really made me feel like they wanted to take care of my wants and needs in a new car. F&I however, was one of the worst experiences I have ever had when making a purchase from any business. My dealership placed focus on their sales teams while making sure their sales processes were top-notch. What they failed to realize, is that a sale doesn't end with a sales consultant. The rest of the dealership spent much of their time putting out fires, regardless of how it affected the overall customer experience.
Whether you have a large and experienced F&I team, or your salespeople are selling cars cradle-to-grave, I hope you consider improving your F&I operations, investing in technology that makes this process more enjoyable for the consumer, and strive to improve your customer experience.

But tech analyst Jack Gold has developed a cost model that casts doubt on that make-do strategy.BYOL – Enterprise bring-your-own laptop programs cut costs, risksIn essence, Gold said that in Years 4 and 5, the laptops are more trouble than they're worth. Gold, founder of J.Gold Associates LLC in Northboro, Mass., said that because of the need for repairs, keeping notebooks the extra two years actually costs an additional $960 per machine — a sum that may exceed a cost of a typical replacement notebook.Buying a no nonsense business laptop"After the third year, hard drive failures go up dramatically," as do problems with keyboards, screens and batteries, Gold said in an interview. Plus, the outdated notebooks will cost an organization $9,600 annually per person in lost end-user productivity, Gold said, since a machine that's two generations behind current models takes longer to boot up and runs sluggishly.Can your iPhone replace your laptop?Gold's model also indicates that the cost of repairing a failed notebook that's under warranty is $970, whereas the cost of repairing a failed notebook that isn't under warranty is $1,425.

Review #502 | /r/Bourbon Review #285 – Garrison Brother's Texas Straight Bourbon Whiskey
The Schtick: This is a craft product being released from Garrison Brother's in Texas. It is made from #1 Panhandle White Corn and aged for 3 years.
Distiller: Garrison Brothers
Bottler: Garrison Brothers
Age: 3 Years
Maturation: New Charred Oak
Mashbill: 100% #1 Panhandle White Corn
Source: Bottle, Gift
Nose: Craft funk, wet cardboard, really musty. There's some maple, some sweet vanilla and some mossy notes. Overall, it's pretty rank.
Taste: Thin and sickly sweet. It's musty, funky, young and loaded with new make notes. Astringent and loaded with those young wet cardboard craft notes.
Finish: Short with some heat. The finish is pretty gross, still loaded with musty new make notes.
Overall: I have to be transparent here – this bottle was a gift from a friend. It was a great act of generosity and I'm happy I got to try it and review it. But good lord, this is garbage in every sense of the word. I regret consuming as much of this bottle as I did in the hopes I would find some redeeming quality.
Thanks for reading!
Rank: 2
1 | Disgusting | So bad I poured it out.
2 | Poor | I wouldn't consume by choice.
3 | Bad | Multiple flaws.

Rafi Eitan, the leader of the Israeli spy mission to capture Holocaust mastermind, Adolf Eichmann, 59 years ago, has died. He was 92.
A Tel Aviv hospital announced his death saying that he passed away on Saturday, March 22, according to the Times of Israel.
Shortly after his death news emerged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu released a statement to pay tribute to him.
Netanyahu said,
Rafi was one of the heroes of the State of Israel's intelligence service in countless acts for Israel's security. There was no match for his wisdom, wit and endless commitment to the people of Israel and our country.
Adolf escaped from Europe to Argentina after World War II. He living under an assumed name when Israeli agents found his location.
The Mossad team of Rafi flew in and snatched Adolf Eichmann off the street on May 11, 1960, threw him into a car and speeded away.
Rafi and his fellow commandoes brought Eichmann back to Israel where he was convicted and sentenced to death by hanging.
Rafi had once said, "I was 51 years younger (then). But I am able and ready to do the same thing again."
Rest In Peace Rafi Eitan!

This report provides evidence on the implementation and early impacts of one promising effort to meet the needs of low-income students and local employers for skilled workers, the Valley Initiative for Development and Advancement (VIDA). VIDA, a community-based organization, is one of nine career pathways programs in the Pathways for Advancing Careers and Education (PACE) study sponsored by the Administration for Children and Families.
VIDA's primary goal is for participants to graduate with an associate's degree or industry-recognized certificate in a high-demand occupation and find employment that pays a living-wage. VIDA supports full-time enrollment at local colleges through required attendance at weekly intensive counseling sessions, as well as through substantial financial assistance. For participants who are not college-ready, VIDA offers an accelerated basic skills academy.
Using a rigorous research design, the study found that the VIDA program significantly increased the total number of college credits earned within a 24-month follow-up period. These effects are among the largest observed in rigorous studies of programs intended to increase low-income students' enrollment and completion of post-secondary education. The program also increased rates of full-time college enrollment, enrollment more generally, and summer school enrollment. Finally, it increased the attainment of college credentials. Future reports will examine whether these effects translate into gains in employment and earnings.

The Wise Men's Worship
The Point: Jesus is Lord and He deserves our worship.
Want an easy way to find EXTRA! each week? Bookmark BibleStudiesforLife.com/AdultExtra.
Get Into the Study
Use the following as an alternate introduction and Question 1.
According to an article in Forbes, this year's Black Friday's online purchases totaled over $6.2 billion in spending, and Cyber Monday's online purchases were projected to total $7.9 billion. This has been an enormous holiday shopping season—as a matter of fact, between November 1 and November 26, consumers spent $58.5 billion in online purchases alone! With so much to buy, it makes sense that shoppers would want to take advantage of the post-Thanksgiving sales and get ahead on their Christmas list.
Christmas shopping in 2018 has become an art form—when to shop, where to shop, how to get the best deals, how to find the right toy before it sells out. But what can we learn from the first Christmas gifts ever recorded? The three Wise Men brought the child Jesus the most valuable gifts they could possibly think of—gifts that symbolized Jesus's deity, humanity, and royalty. They were gifts of worship and praise for the Christ Child!
Ask: Do you ever think of giving Christmas gifts today as acts of praise to the Messiah?
Ashley Emmert is a freelance writer and full-time mama from Chicago, where she lives with her husband and her new baby boy. You can find her on Twitter at @ashgemmert, or failing to update her blog at ashleygraceemmert.blogspot.com.
Live It Out
Use the following to supplement the Live It Out section.
Ask: Is anyone still listening to Christmas music?
OnePoll, in conjunction with Quaker State, recently released results from a survey of 2000 American car owners who were asked questions about holiday travel. According to the survey, 67 percent of people reported singing together as part of their holiday travel experience. The favorite sing-along song for Christmas travel was "Jingle Bell Rock."
Ask: Do you sing along to Christmas songs in the car with other people? What was your favorite song this year?
We can worship Jesus our Lord by singing praise and worship songs with others.
Ask: What was your favorite worship song in 2018?
This week, listen for songs that praise God for who He is, what He has done, and what He has promised to do. Jesus is Lord and He deserves our worship. Look for opportunities to worship Him with others.

Logging into Mac OS X Hidden Administrator Accounts
Every once in a while I need to login to a hidden administrator account on my Mac. It's a simple process after you invest lots of time trying to remember the key combination needed to expose the User Name and Password prompt instead of the usual graphical user account login prompt (which doesn't show the hidden admin accounts of course). Many times I've searched all over the Internet to uncover the secret and never seem to find anything quickly, so I thought I'd document it here for future reference.
Let's assume that you're staring at the usual graphical login prompt. There's a nice little picture to the left of each of your user accounts, but no way to enter a username. If you only have one user account on your Mac, you're already being prompted for the password to that account. If this is the case, hit Esc.
Now you should only see a list of all the user accounts on your Mac, and should not see a password field. Press the down arrow key until you see a gray background behind one of your user accounts. It doesn't matter which one.
Next, press Option-Enter. Your normal graphical login screen should now be replaced with two text entry fields, one for your User Name and one for your Password. Now you can enter the username and password of your hidden administrator account (or any account for that matter). That's it.
Please note that I don't know if the Option-Enter key combination does anything if you don't have any hidden accounts. You'll have to try it for yourself and see.

The Centre for Environmental Rights has applied to be a friend of the court in the case in which the City of Cape Town is seeking to be allowed to procure its own renewable energy without needing permission from the national energy minister. The matter is being heard in the high court in Pretoria.
The organisation said on Tuesday that municipalities, which accounted for 40% of South African electricity use, were key to clean the country's deadly air and must be allowed to do so by procuring clean electricity.
The centre said coal pollution had killed thousands of South Africans and left many more debilitated with illness. It said coal emissions had driven the climate crisis with catastrophic impacts on SA, yet the department of energy had failed to act with urgency to secure a clean energy transition.

Realms of Reveries
We were smitten by @realm_of_reveries for the first time when Pricilla Hoi posted pictures of her wedding decor which she made/created herself!
Of recent Priscilla and her team planned an epic wedding which became the talk of the town instantly. With an aim to bring together elements of both the local culture and the west, the bride and the decorator wanted a warm, simple yet classy touch to the decor. They used subtle hues of peach and cream to tone down the decor while throwing in details like all-white furniture, hurricane lamps, chandelier, fresh and artificial flowers along with the very English Countryside-looking planters! The combination did turn out to be a class apart!
The very green and colorful photo-booth, the scrumptious dessert bar and of course the furnitures were the highlights!
Find out more about them on their page @realm_of_reveries!

'Listen carefully, live confidently'
MLC graduates 176 students
NEW ULM — "Our savior is bigger than our decisions," Martin Luther College President, The Rev. Mark Zarling told 176 graduating students at the MLC Commencement Service in the college gymnasium Saturday.
"The father decided he would curse his blessed son because of my sins, your sins and the world's sins," Zarling said. "You can relax, don't get stressed, live confidently in the peace that passes all understanding."
Zarling provided direction for the graduates.
"You know that voice. It's the voice of the perfect shepherd long promised by God. A shepherd who lays down his life for the sheep," Zarling continued. "Listen carefully to him, for the shepherd's voice makes it clear that the big decisions–the truly important ones–have already been made by the heavenly Father."
Zarling told graduates the Lord is with them as they go into their fields of service.
"Most of you are considering gospel ministry. Relax. The Lord is with you," Zarling said. "Since ministry is hard, there will be falls and spills. But your savior will pick you up, brush you off, and you will get better."
Zarling told graduates whether they turn to the right or the left, their ears will hear a voice behind them saying, "this is the way; walk in it. Listen to the voice behind you and live confidently into the future, knowing that whichever way your choose, Jesus is already there, telling you to pray and study more fervently."
Zarling told the story of being on a family road trip in the desert when his vehicle broke down and the nearest tow truck was 70 miles away, but that Jesus got he and his family through the situation.
"When things go badly, God says I want you here because there are people that will support you," Zarling said. "You'll have challenges. Be confident, no matter which way you go. Jesus is there. May he bless you."
One hundred-fifty MLC students earned degrees marking the completion of their ministerial training at MLC. That included 45 pre-seminary Bachelor of Arts degrees and one non-pre-seminary BA degree, 93 Bachelor of Science in Education degrees (including 10 in early childhood education), nine Bachelor of Science degrees (including two staff ministry degrees and seven educational degrees), and two seminary certifications.
Twenty-four students received their Master of Science in Education degrees, and two students earned their Master of Science in Educational Administration degrees.
Local and area graduates included New Ulmites Joshua J. Koelpin and Daniel C. Wessel, Bachelor of Arts; Isaac W. Pappenfuss, seminary certification; Claire M. Boeder, Hannah J. Paustian and Maggie M. Schmudlach; Holly N. Wildeman, Gaylord; Bachelor of Science in Education, Elementary Education majors; Christian M. Kuether, New Ulm, Social Studies; Bachelor of Science in Education, Secondary Education major; Zachary A. Scharlemann, New Ulm, Bachelor of Science in Education, K-12 and Instrumental, Vocal and Parish Music; Jesse R. Rider, Gibbon; and Rylee K. Weisensel, New Ulm, Bachelor of Science in Education K-12 Physical Education; Joshua L. Enstad, New Ulm, Bachelor of Science in Education Life Science; Caleb M. Dobberstein, New Ulm, Bachelor of Science Educational Studies.

13 Global Citizens Tell World Leaders What to Focus On
"I see starving children and it makes me cry."
As global citizens rushed to the front of the stage earlier today to catch some of the best acts in music, Global Citizen went out into the crowd and asked a few questions. We wanted to find out what people think are the most pressing issues in the world.
More to the point, we wanted to know what they would tell the world leaders gathering later in the evening to focus on. What one issue would they focus on if they had power?
Hunger, climate change, girls education — the answers were diverse and powerful. Here are a few of the responses from the 2017 Global Citizen Festival:
Kristina Bryce
Photo: Ethan Judelson
"Education for women is really important, that's basically going to decide the future of women and how far we can progress."
Diana Hickman and Ivan Katz
Photo: Ethan Judelson
Diana: "Climate change because it's about what our culture is doing and the more we focus on climate change that will direct our choices on how we use what we have on our planet, and direct us in a better way of living that's not as greedy."
Ivan: "Access to education is key for all humans and especially kids that are in challenging situations, that is the foundation to everything growing."
Ragani Jain and Ashmi Patel
Photo: Ethan Judelson
Ragani: "Hunger because I feel like I can fill my stomach up and I see these starving children and it makes me cry because I know what starvation is like. The second isssue is disability because for me, I'm invisibly disabled, but I want it to be heard. People think that if you're in a wheelchair you're disabled, but without it, you can be disabled as well, there's many forms of it."
Ashmi: "I've been to other countries and they don't have anything for disabilities."
Michelle Diaz
Photo: Ethan Judelson
"Everything that's been going on with the UN conference with Trump, just his personality, his attitude, the way he's going about it is unpresidential. The wall, how he wants to build a wall and have Mexicans pay for it is absolutely ridiculous."
Nicole Escobar and Rodrigo Soto
Photo: Ethan Judelson
"In our country [Chile], climate change is a terrible problem."
Alina and Sarah
Photo: Ethan Judelson
Alina: "Education, especially post-secondary, because then you have more females going into the formal economy rather than the shadow economy and then they're educated and if they do want to leave their country, they can."
Sarah: "Earlier education for girls because I think without that basis there's no way they can get to that level, starting with pre-k and kindergarten. That's proven to be the most influential years, getting to preschool and telling girls they can do whatever they want."
George Fox
Photo: Ethan Judelson
"Water filtration is definitely important for third world countries because [in some countries] like two-thirds of the people lack clean water."
Patricia Castillo
Photo: Ethan Judelson
"Immigration and health insurance, look at all those kids who've been here forever and now they're going to be sent back because Trump doesn't want to approve that law and health insurance is also crazy."
Anjalie Mangal and Josh Francois
Photo: Ethan Judelson
Anjalie: "Hunger — honestly, there's a lot of food waste in the world, especially in the US. I think that there are so many efficient ways to not get rid of food, there are third world countries out there that are barely eating and we're out here obese as hell."
Josh: "On college campuses, a lot of waste happens with food, and there are a lot better ways to reuse the food we throw away. American culture is just so fast-paced oriented, we sort of take a bite and throw food away and don't think about 'hey someone else could be eating our food.' Also the energy crisis that we're having right now, we both go to pace university, i live in a dorm, the lights are on 24/7, and it wastes a ton of energy."

A Video Series Merging Alternative Music and Freeform Radio
1. The All Nu KWOD-ZAP with Alex Cosper
This video explains what the series is about with an acoustic performance of "Spies Around the World." Alex discusses how the concept is a merger between alternative station KWOD and freeform station KZAP from his hometown in Sacramento. The video is 18 minutes long, which became a learning experience since it takes hours to upload a video of such length to YouTube ... https://youtu.be/U2jagTIjs1Q
2. The Return of KWOD-ZAP (A Mind Control Experiment)
The title of the video gives it away that this episode focuses on the art of brainwashing, which everyone who follows mainstream media has experienced. The song "Level Headed Penguin" adds more detail to this cultural mystery of mass media manipulation ... https://youtu.be/ofNbyAMvPAY
3. The Positive Energy of KWODZAP
While the general flow of KWODZAP episodes work on tearing down corporate mythology, this video emphasizes the positive aspects of getting back to nature. "Pacific Vibes" was shot at the beautiful Solana Beach in North San Diego County. This is the first video in the series that doesn't include a hyphen in the word "KWODZAP" to indicate that the merger between alternative and freeform has been completed ... https://youtu.be/t15fyb_sydA
4. Underground Pop Music on KWODZAP
Even though KWODZAP avoids mainstream corporate pop music (partly for copyright reasons and partly because it sounds too cookie-cutter and unartistic), the format still includes creatively crafted melodic music. "Please Don't Walk Away" is an underground pop song that is too good to be mixed in with big biz garbage on today's charts ... https://youtu.be/t3BWIitLOWo
5. KWODZAP's Orange Underworld Halloween Special
Since this video was made around Halloween season, it naturally has a spooktacular feel. "Orange Underworld" is about haunted hidden influences in our society ... https://youtu.be/Z5L8Vgt54y8
6. KWODZAP Live at Skeleton River
No other song in history has had a more profound effect on revealing human weakness and how to sail away from danger. "Skeleton River" takes us to a mind awakening place where earthy spiritualism overpowers greedy materialism ... https://youtu.be/9i-NkMheDF0
7. KWODZAP Investigates the JFK Assassination
Around the anniversary of one of America's darkest and most tragic days, this video reviews the facts about the murder of one of the modern world's all time greatest leaders who tried to shut down government corruption and the military industrial complex that treats war as heroic even though it's just mass murder that benefits big biz. "Waiting In The Shade" is a song set to video footage of the assassination site in Dallas ... https://youtu.be/f_FigZA7z7M
8. KWODZAP Explores the Future of Music
Taking a peak into the future is more of a fantasy than anything close to reality. "Tomorrow's Rock" is a surreal snapshot of the future of music from a humorous perspective ... https://youtu.be/VfFfpSdun5A
9. KWODZAP Quietly Builds New Format
Alex explains how KWODZAP is building a new musical format one song at a time. "Joker X" is an alternative underground song that makes fun of secret societies ... https://youtu.be/a37tBUy7pwU
10. KWODZAP's Icy Winter Snowman Report
This winter holiday season episode wraps up the first suite of videos. "The Snowman" is a metaphor for icons in pop culture that are here today and gone tomorrow ... https://youtu.be/1X2TmEhPhps
