2016 Arkansas Times Craft Beer Festival preview
Make plans to attend Oct. 28.
Arkansas Times Staff
If you don't make it any farther in this article, remember this: The Arkansas Times Craft Beer Festival takes place from 6-9 p.m. Friday, Oct. 28, at the Argenta Plaza at 6th and Main streets in North Little Rock, and it is a hot ticket. The festival routinely sells out, so if you think sampling beers from around the country (and world) while noshing on food from local restaurants and listening to live music sounds like a good time, hasten to centralarkansastickets.com and buy your ticket in advance.
As usual, dozens of breweries will be pouring more than 250 different beers. There will be food from Skinny J's Argenta, Zaffino's by Nori, Whole Hog Cafe in North Little Rock, Arkansas Ale House, Taziki's, Damgoode Pies, Cafe Bossa Nova, Old Chicago North Little Rock and Edwards Food Giant. Opal Agafia & The Sweet Nothings, a self-described "soul/roots/folk" band from Northwest Arkansas, will provide the soundtrack. Plus, Sam Adams will have a pop-a-shot, cornhole and something called a mustache teeter-totter set up in its corner. As usual, proceeds benefit the Argenta Arts Foundation. Read on to learn more about the breweries and beers coming to the festival.
Arkansas Breweries
(See here for more on Arkansas breweries.)
Bubba Brews You won't miss this brewery at the beer fest; it will be serving its 10-Point Bock, All-American Pale Ale, Dirty Blonde, English Godfather ESB, Great White, Oatmeal Stout, Scooter Trash IPA and Southern Rok Oktoberfestbier out of its tap truck.
Blue Canoe The River Market district brewery will be pouring 4X4 Pale, Wolf Trail Pale and The Whittler, a milk stout.
Buffalo Brewing Co. The state's newest brewery is also one of the state's smallest. Situated in the back of The Water Buffalo, a supply store for gardeners and cheese-, wine- and beer-makers, it will have on hand 3 Doses, Easy Red Rider, Pineapple Wheat and a nonalcoholic root beer. Also, look out for a Water Buffalo tent with info on home brewing and the store's free classes.
Core Brewing Co. The Springdale-based behemoth continues to open public houses throughout the state at a rapid clip. Next year, look for it to open a distillery in Fort Smith. At the festival, try Core's Arkansas Red, Behemoth Pilsner, ESB, Hilltop IPA, Kyya Imperial Chocolate Stout, Leg Hound Lager, Pumpkin Pie Lager, Raspberry Lager and Toasted Coconut Ale.
Damgoode Brews The River Market district brewpub will pour its Arkansas Amber, Arktoberfest, Damgoode Pale Ale and O Quattlebaum, an IPA named for longtime brewer Joshua Quattlebaum.
Diamond Beer Brewing Co. The state's oldest production brewery will be serving tasty food from its North Little Rock Arkansas Ale House as well as most of its beer lineup: Dogtown Brown, Oatmeal Stout, Pale Ale, Pig Trail Porter, Presidential IPA, Rocktoberfest, Southern Blonde and Strawberry Blonde.
Flyway Brewing The North Little Rock brwery will have on hand its year-round Bluewing Blueberry Wheat, Free Range Brown and Migrate Pale Ale as well as special and seasonal brews Coffee Cake Stout, Magdalene Tripel and Pumpkin Ale.
Lost Forty Brewing The state's largest brewery will debut its new limited release Snake Party IPA, a double dry-hopped double IPA, and pour its latest seasonal, Forest Queen Stout, along with year-round brews Love Honey Bock and Rock Hound IPA.
Ozark Beer Co. The Rogers-based brewery will have on hand its widely distributed American Pale Ale, Belgian Golden and Cream Stout as well as its October Saison. True beer nerds will likely be hovering around Ozark's table, waiting for a limited pour of its Bourbon Barrel Aged Double Cream Stout (BDCS), one of the most celebrated Arkansas beers.
Rebel Kettle Brewing Co. The rapidly growing East Village brewery will show off its range at the beer festival, pouring its popular Working Glass Hero Blonde Ale along with a trio of specials — Harvest Season Saison, REDRUMPUM Imperial Pumpkin Amber Ale and Show 'Em Your O'Fest Oktoberfest Märzen.
Stone's Throw Brewing The Ninth Street nanobrewery will have on hand its Amer Belge Belgian IPA, Barton British Standard, Big Dam Horn Imperial Oktoberfest and Special Cider Release.
Vino's & Moody Brews After a stint at Damgoode Brews and working on his own Moody Brews as a gypsy brewer, Josiah Moody is back at Vino's while also working on his own creations. He'll have both at the festival: Moody Brews Earl Grey ESB, Moody Brews Watermelon Ginger IPA, Vino's Dry Hopped Gardenhouse and Vino's Dunkelweizen.
Regional Breweries
Abita Brewing Louisiana's largest craft brewery was started in 1986 in the small town of Abita Springs, which sits about 30 miles north of New Orleans. Driven in part by the concentrated collective thirst radiating across Lake Pontchartrain, Abita has grown to produce over 151,000 barrels of beer annually, including its signature Amber. It will have a full menu of brews on offer this year: Amber, Purple Haze, Big Easy Session IPA, Oktoberfest, Andygator Dopplebock, Bourbon St. Coffee Stout, Bourbon St. Honey Pale Ale and Peach Harvest Lager.
Boulevard Brewing Co. For fans of wheat beer, Boulevard Brewing Co.'s Unfiltered Wheat Beer — usually just called "Boulevard Wheat" — is a reliably delicious tap mainstay, a brew to order when you're not feeling adventurous and none of the tap handles look familiar. The brew that earned the beer a Gold Medal from the Great American Beer Festival likely owes a lot of its complexity to the Kansas City brewery's bottle conditioning process, in which sugar and yeast are added to the brew just before it's bottled, creating a second fermentation inside the bottle. The company also brings its Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale, a floral-scented saison that's heavy on the grapefruit; the Snow and Tell, an oak-aged Scotch ale added to the brewery's lineup last winter; the Nutcracker Ale, a reddish winter brew with hints of caramel and toffee; the special-release Rye On Rye On Rye (or, Rye on Rye X), a beer version of the New Orleans Sazerac cocktail aged in a Templeton Rye whiskey barrel; and the Saison Brett, a take on the Tank 7, bottle-conditioned with a wild yeast called Brettanomyces.
Cedar Creek Brewery Situated on Cedar Creek Lake 60 miles southeast of Dallas, 4-year-old Cedar Creek Brewery is another fairly recent addition to the booming Texas craft beer scene. Founded by beer lover Jim Elliott and his wife, Cindy, the brewery grew out of Jim's frustration with not being able to find good craft brews on tap when he moved to the area in 2008. Elliott eventually hired brewmaster Damon Lewis and together, they cobbled up a brewery from former dairy equipment. Since then, the little brewery has expanded considerably and continues to churn out fan-favorite suds. At the festival, look for the Dank-o-Saurus IPA, Patio Pounder Pale Lager and Lawn Ranger Cream Ale.
Charleville Vineyard & Microbrewery A winery that expanded into brewing, Charleville is situated in Sainte Geneive, Mo., in the hills just south of St. Louis, where in addition to the winery and brewhouse, there's a refurbished 1860s log cabin that serves as a bed and breakfast. Look for the brewery to pour Late Night Karate Kicks, Oktoberfest and more.
COOP Ale Works This 7-year-old Sooner brewery based in Oklahoma City, bottles, cans and kegs its beers and is sending five to Central Arkansas for the festival: Its high-octane DNR (the label featuring bare feet and a toe-tag), a Belgian dark ale with notes of cinnamon, dried fruit and yeast; muddled pink Very Cherry DNR; its hop-forward F5 India Pale Ale; Spare Rib pale ale (a "gas station beer"); and spicy Elevator Wheat, a blend of Maris Otter barley, white wheat and rye. COOP expanded in 2014 and made its Craft Beer Festival debut that year, its first time to venture out of state.
Ghost River Brewing According to the brewers at Ghost River, "The Memphis Sand Aquifer is purified naturally through 850 feet of fine sand and natural quartz. That's why every brewery in Memphis uses it." The brewery donates $1 for every barrel it brews to the Wolf River Conservancy in the spirit of preserving that aquifer, and it'll bring the results of that purification to the festival by way of four brews: the flagship Golden Ale; the Riverbank Red, a Great American Beer Festival winner originally brewed for the Memphis Redbirds baseball team; the 1887, an IPA made with Columbus hops; and Midnight Magic, a German-style black ale that's light-bodied, but still tastes like a dark beer.
Goldcrest Brewing Co. Last year, Goldcrest Brewing Co. revived the domestic lager Goldcrest 51, a.k.a. "The Original Memphis Beer," produced from 1906 by the Tennessee Brewing Co. until 1954, when the brewery closed. (The brewery was older, having opened in 1885.) Memphians used to say, "I'll have a 51"; now we can say the same at the Craft Beer Festival. The new 51, the only beer produced by Goldcrest, is based on the original recipe and is now lightly hopped with Fuggle and Tradition hops.
Great Raft Brewing The Great Raft was a massive logjam on the Red River, at one point clogging the river from Shreveport 65 miles downstream to Campti back in the 19th century. Great Raft Brewing, on the other hand, has been flowing freely on the Red since 2012, when Andrew and Lindsey Nations launched their brewery in their hometown of Shreveport. Since then, the brewery has landed a Gold in the pale ale category of the 2015 U.S. Beer Championships. Great Raft paddled all the way upstream to Little Rock in September for Great Raft Arkansas Launch Week, serving up several varieties of suds at The Faded Rose, Maddie's Place, Flying Saucer, Reno's and at liquor stores. It returns for the Craft Beer Festival laden with Commotion Pale Ale, Reasonably Corrupt dark lager, Southern Drawl "Euro" lager and Creature of Habit American Brown ale.
Lazy Magnolia Mississippi's first package brewery since prohibition, Lazy Magnolia has become one of the South's most widely distributed beers. Founded in 2003 in Kiln, Miss. (the hometown of Brett Favre), the brewery will be pouring three beers from its Welcome to the Porch Series, or as it calls them, "easy-drinking brews for all occasions": Flour De Wheat, an American wheat ale; Lazy Saison, a pale Belgian-style wheat ale; and Southern Pecan, its popular nut brown ale. Also on tap: the brewery's fall seasonal, an American strong ale called Me and The Dev Ale.
Marshall Brewing Brewmaster Eric Marshall untapped the first of his "full-strength ales and lagers" in Tulsa in 2008 and says his goal is to be the "premiere brewery in Oklahoma." The brewery is sending over four beers, three of them from its year-round lineup: its "easy-drinking" Sundown Wheat, Atlas India Pale Ale and the Old Pavilion pilsner. The fourth is the Black Dolphin Russian Imperial Stout, a beer with which to celebrate cooler weather.
Mother's Brewing Co. The brewers at Mother's, headquartered just up the road in Springfield, Mo., say they are doing their best to make their mothers proud with beers they say show their love for community. Mother-love in Central Arkansas will come in the form of four brews: Loopty Loop, a New World lager; Brandy Barrel MILF; Winter Grind, a coffee stout; and Three Blind Mice, a brown ale. Mother's, opened in 2011 in a former Hostess bread bakery and won a 2016 Feast award for best microbrewery in mid-Missouri. You may have sampled some of Mother's best at last year's festival or at Oktoberfest at Eureka Springs or the Osceola Gala last weekend. If you were born at least 21 years ago, Mother you should know: It's the beer with the heart label.
Piney River Brewing Co. More Ozarks-brewed beer for the Craft Beer Festival: Piney River Brewing Co. returns with seasonals Sweet Potato Ale and Masked Bandit black rye IPA and year-round releases Black Walnut Wheat Ale, the 2012 Grapes, Grains and Growls Festival winner; and Old Tom Porter, the 2013 Great American Beer Festival Gold Medal winner. Piney River Brewing was once a nanobrewery on Joleen and Brian Durham's farm in Bucyrus, Mo.; it's still on the farm, but now has a canning line and is distributed in Missouri and Arkansas.
Public House Brewing Co. A brewery that grew from co-owner Josh Stacy's adventures helping his homebrewer father make his own kitchen suds, the Rolla, Mo., Public House Brewing Co.and Brewpub opened in 2010 to rave reviews, and now has three locations in Rolla and St. James. Especially known for its seasonal brews, including a strawberry wheat ale and Courtship Cranberry Ale, Public House is fast becoming one of the big names of craft brewing in the Show Me State, which knows a thing or two about beer. Look for five of its favorites at the festival, including its Courtship Cranberry Ale, Rod's Cream Ale, Revelation Stout, Hide and Seek Hefeweizen and Elusive IPA.
Shiner Beer The Shiner Brewery was founded by Kosmos Spoetzl, a Bavarian beer enthusiast who settled in Shiner, Texas, where he began brewing from within a tin shed in 1909, spreading the gospel of the Spoetzl Brewery's output by leaving bottles of his beer on the fenceposts surrounding the fields in which local farmers worked. "Every drop" of the beer is still brewed there, Shiner says, and it'll be bringing drops (collected conveniently in kegs) of its low-ABV summer grapefruit-ginger lager Ruby Redbird; the signature Shiner Bock that inspired the ram on the beer's label; Shiner Cheer, a dunkelweisen brewed with peach and pecan; and the Wicked Ram IPA, the brewery's first India Pale Ale.
Southern Star Brewing Located about 40 miles north of Houston in the town of Conroe, Texas, Southern Star began brewing in 2008. It's known locally for sponsoring a homebrew "Pro-Am," in which the winner has a chance to brew his or her recipe using Southern Star's equipment. This year, it'll be pouring Bombshell Blonde, Buried Hatchet and Conspiracy Theory IPA.
Tallgrass Brewing Co. Founded in 2007 in Manhattan, Kan., Tallgrass now distributes throughout the Midwest and South, exclusively in 16-ounce cans with colorful labels. For the festival, look for 8-Bit Pale Ale; Buffalo Sweat, an oatmeal cream stout brewed with vanilla beans; Flying Hawaiian, a double IPA brewed with pineapple; the Belgian-style Songbird Saison; Top Rope IPA; and Zombie Monkie, a robust porter made with roasted dark chocolate and specialty malts.
Tin Roof Brewing A standout from the burgeoning Louisiana craft brew scene, Baton Rouge's Tin Roof Brewing Co. is yet another example of beer lovers creating their own supply when living in an area where the local beer offerings didn't pass personal muster. Friends and business partners Charles Caldwell and William McGehee, both hardcore craft beer fans, had long dreamed of opening their own artisan brewery for years before making Tin Roof a reality in November 2010. Among other popular brews, they've since canned up the official beer of LSU, but please don't hold that against them, Hog fans. They won't be pouring their LSU-approved Bayou Bengal Lager at the festival, but they will be offering up their Juke Joint IPA, Game Day IPA, Perfect Tin Amber Ale, Turnrow Coriander Ale, Voodoo Bengal Pale Ale and Blonde Ale.
National Breweries
Anchor Brewing Co. This hallowed San Francisco institution claims to be "America's first and oldest craft brewery," and with roots dating back to at least 1896, it makes a convincing case. Anchor has survived Prohibition, the mid-century era of mass-produced lagers, and, long before any of that, the destruction of its original brewery in the great earthquake of 1906. It still produces its famous Anchor Steam in a copper brewhouse in San Francisco, along with variants like Brotherhood Steam, California Lager, Flying Cloud Stout and Anchor Porter — all of which will be available for sampling.
Blue Moon Brewing Co. Initially named "The Sandlot" because of its being situated in a Denver, Colo., baseball stadium, the Belgian White beer that earned Blue Moon its reputation — with a signature orange wheel garnish in place of the traditional lemon — spread like wildfire when brewer and founder Keith Villa toured bars with cases of the brew and bags of oranges. Blue Moon's Belgian White made its way first to Northwest Arkansas and then across the state, eventually becoming a taproom staple. The MillerCoors brewery also brings its White IPA, a hoppier twist on the classic Belgian Wit made with a hops variety called Huell Melon; a Cappuccino Oatmeal Stout, a limited-release beer that makes up part of the brewery's winter sampler pack; a Cocoa Brown that pairs chocolate with a hint of orange; and the brewery's Cinnamon Horchata Ale, a take on the classic Valencian agua de horchata, a milky cinnamon beverage brewed with long-grain rice.
Brewery Ommegang Situated on a hilltop in Cooperstown, N.Y., Brewery Ommegang looks more like a farmhouse wedding destination than a brewery, and there's a reason for that: The brewhouse is situated on a former hops farm. Like Blue Moon, Ommegang's signature brew is a Belgian wheat called Witte that's brewed with orange peel and coriander. It'll have that on hand, as well as the brewery's Lovely, Dark and Deep Winter Ale, brewed with midnight wheat, chocolate and flaked oats, as well as two brews based on HBO's "Game of Thrones," which the brewery says are "made to be deep, dark and complex like those who have sworn the oath to defend Westeros against threats from the north."
Carson's Brewery Jason Carson's 3-year-old microbrewery is new to the Craft Beer Festival. Carson's produces six core beers, seasonals and barrel-aged products in Evansville, Ind., and is sending five of those plus a retired label, Purgatory, which means you'll be drinking the last of it. Carson's marketing has a dark side, as you'll see by the names: Meet the RIPA, Carson's Red India Pale Ale; Demonik Double IPA, with a "sarcophagi bitter finish"; the nutty and dark Brown Cow brown ale; the Harlot Honey Blonde light ale; and Eville American Wheat ale. Don't fear the RIPA: It brought home the bronze medal in the Double Red Ale category at this year's Great American Beer Festival.
Cascade Brewing A Portland, Ore., brewery founded in 1998, Cascade Brewing only makes sour beer, which is intentionally brewed to be sour or acidic in taste. Cascade will have on hand its Apricot Sour Ale, a blend of blonde ales aged in wine barrels with apricots; Blueberry Northwest Style Sour Ale, a blend of blonde and wheat ales aged in wine barrels with blueberries; Kriek Northwest Sour Ale, a blend of sour red ales aged in wine barrels with Bing and sour pie cherries; and Strawberry Northwest Sour Ale, a blend of blonde and wheat ales aged in wine barrels with strawberries and vanilla beans.
Clown Shoes Beer The mission of this Ipswich, Mass.-based brewery is "to produce beer without pretension while being free and a little crazy." Judge for yourself by trying The Barista, a "breakfast" brown ale; Chocolate Sombrero, a Mexican-style Chocolate Stout; Evil Crawfish Imperial Red Ale; Mango, an American Kolsch; and Undead Party Crash, an American Imperial Stout.
Craft Brew Alliance The fifth largest craft brewery in the country was born in 2008 out of the merger of two popular Pacific Northwest breweries founded in the 1980s — Redhook Brewery and Widmer Brothers Brewing. Over the years, Craft Brew Alliance has added Kona Brewing Co., Hawaii's oldest and largest craft brewery, and gluten-free Omission Beer. At the fest, look for Kona's Longboard Lager and Big Wave Golden Ale along with Widmer Hefewizen and Omission Pale Ale.
The Dudes Brewing Co. Torrance, Calif.-based The Dudes Brewing Co. might not be the brewery traveling the farthest distance to participate in the festival, but it's probably in the running. Founded in 2013 by surfer and craft brewer Jeff Parker and his business partner Toby Humes, the company has long been big on putting its offerings in beach-friendly cans, and often brings the flavors of Southern California to its brews. All the beers from its popular "Juicebox" series will be available for sampling at the festival, including its Blood Orange Amber, Grandma's Pecan Brown, Peach Berliner Weiss, Pumpkin Golden Ale and Schnitzen Giggles.
Einstok Brewing Co. Einstok's website prominently features a set of geographic coordinates: N65° W18°, a spot about 60 miles south of the Arctic Circle. That would be the fishing port of Akureyri on the northern coast of Iceland, which is where Einstok crafts its ales. Newcomers to the festival this year, the Nordic brewmasters will serve their White Ale, Toasted Porter, Arctic Pale Ale and Arctic Berry, which is flavored with hand-picked bilberries.
Founders Brewing Co. A winner of six World Beer Cup medals, four European Beer Star medals and three Great American Beer festivals, this Grand Rapids, Mich.-based brewery will be pouring its All Day IPA, Breakfast Stout, Centennial IPA, Dirty Bastard, Kentucky Breakfast Stout, PC Pils and Porter.
Goose Island Owned by Anheuser-Busch InBev since 2011, Goose Island has kept up the quality and willingness to experiment that's made it such a well-respected name in craft beer. It'll bring an impressive lineup to the fest, including standards 312 Urban Wheat and Goose IPA; vintage ales Lolita, Halia and Gillian; Belgian-style farmhouse ale Pepe Nero; and the 2014 edition of the highly coveted Bourbon County Stout.
Green Flash Brewing Co. You'd have to visit the West Coast to sample Green Flash brews in their natural environment, but luckily, the San Diego brewery is bringing its inventive and always lovely-hued brews inland, including the Cosmic Ristretto, a high-ABV dense black porter brewed with espresso; the Passion Fruit Kicker, a tart wheat ale brewed with tea and passion fruit juice; and the Styrian Golding Single Hop, founded on a base of English malt. Green Flash Brewing Co. joined forces with a fellow San Diego brewery, Alpine Beer Co., with a handshake between owners that doubled the capacity of Alpine's production, a badly needed strategic move after Alpine's Great American Beer Festival medals stretched its popularity beyond its facility's capacity. Green Flash now brews several Alpine beers, one of which it will have in tow at the festival: Alpine's Hoppy Birthday, a session IPA.
Joseph James Brewing Co. This Henderson, Nev., brewery, founded in 2008, will be pouring its American Flyer Craft Lager, Busker Brown Ale, Citra Rye American Pale Ale and I'm Out Imperial Stout.
Lagunitas Brewing Co. A new and welcome entry into Arkansas last year, this Petaluma, Calif.- and Chicago-based brewery has been in expansion mode since it sold a 50 percent stake to Heineken International last year. It will bring its hop-forward 12th of Never Ale, American Strong Ale Brown Shugga, IPA and Lagunitas Sucks Ale to the fest.
New Belgium Brewing Co. Founded in a Fort Collins, Colo., basement in 1991 with two soon-to-be-famous recipes — Abbey, a dark Belgian Dubbel, and the now-ubiquitous Fat Tire Amber Ale — New Belgium this August celebrated both its 25th anniversary and the grand opening of its second production facility, in Asheville, N.C. Along with Fat Tire, New Belgium will be serving Citradelic IPA, Ranger IPA, Pumpkick and Tart Lychee, a sour ale in the brewery's boundary-pushing "Lips of Faith" series.
Oskar Blues Brewery Oskar, which operates three breweries — in Longmont, Colo.; Brevard, N.C.; and Austin, Texas — calls its products the "original craft brew in a can." Cans, Oskar says, keep beer fresher, are portable and are recyclable. This basement-to-149,000-barrels-of-beer outfit was founded by Dale Katechis in Longmont, which is open for tours in case you want to scope out the process that goes into making Dale's Pale Ale (named "Best Pale Ale" by the New York Times in 2005 and first brewed in Katechis' bathtub when he was a student at Auburn University in Alabama); Beerito Mexican lager; Old Chub Scotch ale; Priscilla (a take on Belgian Classic Wit); and Ten Fidy, a "boundary stretching" Imperial stout.
Rogue Founded in 1988, Rogue Ales was at the vanguard of the craft beer movement that has since spread around the world, making the Oregon-based brewery one of the foundation stones of the phenomenon. A repeat medalist for its beers at the Great American Beer Festival, Rogue is known for complex flavors and willingness to field quirky brews — like Voodoo Doughnut Pretzel, Raspberry and Chocolate Ale — as well as its commitment to never using preservatives and sourcing local ingredients, which have become a hallmark of craft brewing. It will be pouring some of its most popular brews for the festival, including Dead Guy IPA, 4 Hop IPA, 7 Hop IPA, Hazlenut Brown Nectar and Shakespeare Oatmeal Stout.
Samuel Adams (Boston Beer Co.) Though the first batch of Boston Lager was concocted in the home of founder Jim Koch in 1984, its lineage goes back to the 1870s, when Koch's great-great-grandfather, Louis Koch, used the recipe at his St. Louis, Mo., brewery. Over a century later, Jim's gamble to rekindle the family business paid off big: The Boston-based company today produces over 4 million barrels per year, making it the nation's second-largest craft brewery. In addition to its trademark lager, Sam Adams will be pouring Winter Lager, White Christmas Ale, Nitor Coffee Stout and four different IPAs: Rebel, Rebel Rider, Rebel Grapefruit and Cascade.
Shock Top Another brewery under the Anheuser-Busch InBev umbrella, Shock Top specializes in drinkable, wheat-style beers. At the fest, try the Apple Wheat, Belgian White and Pretzel Wheat.
Sierra Nevada Now the nation's third-largest craft brewery (behind only the makers of Yuengling and Sam Adams), this pillar of the beer scene helped define the citric, hop-heavy style that's come to be called the American IPA. Sierra Nevada still brews in Chico, the California town where it got its start in 1979, but in 2012 it opened a second facility in Mills River, N.C. It will be pouring its trademark Pale Ale, along with Nooner Pils, Otra Vez, Hop Hunter IPA, Torpedo IPA and Oktoberfest.
Sixpoint Brewery Founded in Brooklyn's Red Hook neighborhood in 2004, Sixpoint makes the audacious claim that its history really began "at the dawn of civilization," seeing as the six-pointed "Brewer's star" that ornaments its slender cans has quasi-mystical roots that trace back to before the Middle Ages. Say what you will about Brooklyn and cultural appropriation, but Sixpoint makes some fantastic beers: This year, it'll be pouring Resin, The Crisp, Sweet Action and Bengali (all available year-round), as well as its specialty 5 Beans, brewed with coffee, cocoa, vanilla and black cardamom.
Stone Brewing Now celebrating its 20th year in business, Stone Brewing is the 10th largest craft brewer in the United States, and has breweries in Berlin as well as Richmond, Va. The company started as a microbrewery in San Diego and now operates Stone Brewing World Bistro and Gardens restaurants there and in Escondido, Calif. The brewery, which uses an image of a gargoyle on its label, has seven year-round releases, including two coming to the festival: Stone IPA and Stone Go To IPA, the latter brewed with "an irrational amount of hops" for an aromatic and bitter drink. Stone is also sending its limited release Stone Coffee Milk Stout, a bittersweet brew; and, from Stone's Arrogant Brewing division, Arrogant Bastard, a bourbon-barrel-aged beer, and the pilsner Who You Callin Wussie. BeerAdvocate Magazine has called Stone Brewery the "All-Time Top Brewery on Planet Earth."
Summit Brewing Co. Founded in 1986 in Saint Paul, Minn., in an old auto parts warehouse, Summit has been in Arkansas for two years now and gained a strong following. In 2009, it started the Unchained Series, where Summit brewers were given the freedom to brew anything they wanted. One of those, Unchained No. 23 West London Ale, will be available at the fest, along with the brewery's Oktoberfest and excellent Saga IPA.
Traveler Beer Co. Can a brewery subsist on shandies alone? Traveler's success proves it's possible. Since first opening in 2012, this Burlington, Vt., based company has grown to distribute its light blends of American wheat ale and other ingredients to all 50 states. It will bring to the festival its Grapefruit Shandy (which is available year-round) and the seasonal Jack-O Traveler Pumpkin Shandy.
Tommyknocker Brewery No, not like the Stephen King book. In miner folklore, tommyknockers are subterranean sprites of mischievous inclination and dubious goodwill — a fitting image for any beer and especially one brewed in Idaho Springs, Colo., a mountain town forged by the Pike's Peak Gold Rush of the 1850s. The recipient of a cumulative 17 medals from the Great American Beer Festival, Tommyknocker Brewery returns to the festival this year with Green Chile Lager, Legend Anniversary Ale, Butthead Bock, Imperial Nut Brown and Jack Whacker Wheat.
Wasatch Brewery/Squatters Craft Beers Now in its 30th year, Salt Lake City-based Wasatch Brewery is another old-timer of the craft brewing scene, and was often forced in its early days to battle for the right to exist in conservative, buttoned-down Mormonland. When the company opened in 1986, it was the first brewery in Utah and later spearheaded the legal effort to bring brewpubs to the state. Wasatch will be joined at the festival by Utah Brewers Cooperative partner Squatters Craft Beers, a 27-year-old operation also based in Salt Lake. Wasatch will be pouring its Polygamy Porter, Devastator Double Bock, Ghostrider White IPA, Apricot Hefeweizen and Evolution Amber Ale. Squatters will serve up its Off Duty IPA, Hop Rising Double IPA and Full Suspension Pale Ale.

Binance support number 1844-907-0583 CEO Changpeng "CZ" Zhao really doesn't want to tell you where his firm's headquarters is located.
Binance support number 1844-907-0583 has loads of offices, he continued, with staff in 50 countries. It was a new type of organization that doesn't need registered bank accounts and postal addresses.
To kick off ConsenSys' Ethereal Summit on Thursday, Unchained Podcast host Laura Shin held a cozy fireside chat with Zhao who, to mark the occasion, was wearing a personalized football shirt emblazoned with the Binance support number 1844-907-0583 brand.
Scheduled for 45 minutes, Zhao spent most of it explaining how libra and China's digital yuan were unlikely to be competitors to existing stablecoin providers; how Binance support number 1844-907-0583's smart chain wouldn't tread on Ethereum's toes – "that depends on the definition of competing," he said – and how Binance support number 1844-907-0583 had an incentive to keep its newly acquired CoinMarketCap independent from the exchange.
There were only five minutes left on the clock. Zhao was looking confident; he had just batted away a thorny question about an ongoing lawsuit. It was looking like the home stretch.
Then it hit. Shin asked the one question Zhao really didn't want to have to answer, but many want to know: Where is Binance support number 1844-907-0583's headquarters?
This seemingly simple question is actually more complex. Until February, Binance support number 1844-907-0583 was considered to be based in Malta. That changed when the island European nation announced that, no, Binance support number 1844-907-0583 is not under its jurisdiction. Since then Binance support number 1844-907-0583 has not said just where, exactly, it is now headquartered.
Little wonder that when asked Zhao reddened; he stammered. He looked off-camera, possibly to an aide. "Well, I think what this is is the beauty of the blockchain, right, so you don't have to ... like where's the Bitcoin office, because Bitcoin doesn't have an office," he said.
The line trailed off, then inspiration hit. "What kind of horse is a car?" Zhao asked. "Wherever I sit, is going to be the Binance support number 1844-907-0583 office. Wherever I need somebody, is going to be the Binance support number 1844-907-0583 office," he said.
Zhao may have been hoping the host would move onto something easier. But Shin wasn't finished: "But even to do things like to handle, you know, taxes for your employees, like, I think you need a registered business entity, so like why are you obfuscating it, why not just be open about it like, you know, the headquarters is registered in this place, why not just say that?"
Zhao glanced away again, possibly at the person behind the camera. Their program had less than two minutes remaining. "It's not that we don't want to admit it, it's not that we want to obfuscate it or we want to kind of hide it. We're not hiding, we're in the open," he said.
Shin interjected: "What are you saying that you're already some kind of DAO [decentralized autonomous organization]? I mean what are you saying? Because it's not the old way [having a headquarters], it's actually the current way ... I actually don't know what you are or what you're claiming to be."
Zhao said Binance support number 1844-907-0583 isn't a traditional company, more a large team of people "that works together for a common goal." He added: "To be honest, if we classified as a DAO, then there's going to be a lot of debate about why we're not a DAO. So I don't want to go there, either."
"I mean nobody would call you guys a DAO," Shin said, likely disappointed that this wasn't the interview where Zhao made his big reveal.
Time was up. For an easy question to close, Shin asked where Zhao was working from during the coronavirus pandemic.
"I'm in Asia," Zhao said. The blank white wall behind him didn't provide any clues about where in Asia he might be. Shin asked if he could say which country – after all, it's the Earth's largest continent.
"I prefer not to disclose that. I think that's my own privacy," he cut in, ending the interview.
It was a provocative way to start the biggest cryptocurrency and blockchain event of the year.
In the opening session of Consensus: Distributed this week, Lawrence Summers was asked by my co-host Naomi Brockwell about protecting people's privacy once currencies go digital. His answer: "I think the problems we have now with money involve too much privacy."
President Clinton's former Treasury secretary, now President Emeritus at Harvard, referenced the 500-euro note, which bore the nickname "The Bin Laden," to argue the un-traceability of cash empowers wealthy criminals to finance themselves. "Of all the important freedoms," he continued, "the ability to possess, transfer and do business with multi-million dollar sums of money anonymously seems to me to be one of the least important." Summers ended the segment by saying that "if I have provoked others, I will have served my purpose."
You're reading Money Reimagined, a weekly look at the technological, economic and social events and trends that are redefining our relationship with money and transforming the global financial system. You can subscribe to this and all of CoinDesk's newsletters here.
That he did. Among the more than 20,000 registered for the weeklong virtual experience was a large contingent of libertarian-minded folks who see state-backed monitoring of their money as an affront to their property rights.
But with due respect to a man who has had prodigious influence on international economic policymaking, it's not wealthy bitcoiners for whom privacy matters. It matters for all humanity and, most importantly, for the poor.
Now, as the world grapples with how to collect and disseminate public health information in a way that both saves lives and preserves civil liberties, the principle of privacy deserves to be elevated in importance.
Just this week, the U.S. Senate voted to extend the 9/11-era Patriot Act and failed to pass a proposed amendment to prevent the Federal Bureau of Investigation from monitoring our online browsing without a warrant. Meanwhile, our heightened dependence on online social connections during COVID-19 isolation has further empowered a handful of internet platforms that are incorporating troves of our personal data into sophisticated predictive behavior models. This process of hidden control is happening right now, not in some future "Westworld"-like existence.
Digital currencies will only worsen this situation. If they are added to this comprehensive surveillance infrastructure, it could well spell the end of the civil liberties that underpin Western civilization.
Yes, freedom matters
Please don't read this, Secretary Summers, as some privileged anti-taxation take or a self-interested what's-mine-is-mine demand that "the government stay away from my money."
Money is just the instrument here. What matters is whether our transactions, our exchanges of goods and services and the source of our economic and social value, should be monitored and manipulated by government and corporate owners of centralized databases. It's why critics of China's digital currency plans rightly worry about a "panopticon" and why, in the wake of the Cambridge Analytica scandal, there was an initial backlash against Facebook launching its libra currency.
Writers such as Shoshana Zuboff and Jared Lanier have passionately argued that our subservience to the hidden algorithms of what I like to call "GoogAzonBook" is diminishing our free will. Resisting that is important, not just to preserve the ideal of "the self" but also to protect the very functioning of society.
Markets, for one, are pointless without free will. In optimizing resource allocation, they presume autonomy among those who make up the market. Free will, which I'll define as the ability to lawfully transact on my own terms without knowingly or unknowingly acting in someone else's interests to my detriment, is a bedrock of market democracies. Without a sufficient right to privacy, it disintegrates – and in the digital age, that can happen very rapidly.
Also, as I've argued elsewhere, losing privacy undermines the fungibility of money. Each digital dollar should be substitutable for another. If our transactions carry a history and authorities can target specific notes or tokens for seizure because of their past involvement in illicit activity, then some dollars become less valuable than other dollars.
The excluded
But to fully comprehend the harm done by encroachments into financial privacy, look to the world's poor.
An estimated 1.7 billion adults are denied a bank account because they can't furnish the information that banks' anti-money laundering (AML) officers need, either because their government's identity infrastructure is untrusted or because of the danger to them of furnishing such information to kleptocratic regimes. Unable to let banks monitor them, they're excluded from the global economy's dominant payment and savings system – victims of a system that prioritizes surveillance over privacy.
Misplaced priorities also contribute to the "derisking" problem faced by Caribbean and Latin American countries, where investment inflows have slowed and financial costs have risen in the past decade. America's gatekeeping correspondent banks, fearful of heavy fines like the one imposed on HSBC for its involvement in a money laundering scandal, have raised the bar on the kind of personal information that regional banks must obtain from their local clients.
And where's the payoff? Despite this surveillance system, the U.N. Office on Drugs and Crime estimates that between $800 billion and $2 trillion, or 2%-5% of global gross domestic product, is laundered annually worldwide. The Panama Papers case shows how the rich and powerful easily use lawyers, shell companies, tax havens and transaction obfuscation to get around surveillance. The poor are just excluded from the system.
Caring about privacy
Solutions are coming that wouldn't require abandoning law enforcement efforts. Self-sovereign identity models and zero-knowledge proofs, for example, grant control over data to the individuals who generate it, allowing them to provide sufficient proof of a clean record without revealing sensitive personal information. But such innovations aren't getting nearly enough attention.
Few officials inside developed country regulatory agencies seem to acknowledge the cost of cutting off 1.7 billion poor from the financial system. Yet, their actions foster poverty and create fertile conditions for terrorism and drug-running, the very crimes they seek to contain. The reaction to evidence of persistent money laundering is nearly always to make bank secrecy laws even more demanding. Exhibit A: Europe's new AML 5 directive.
To be sure, in the Consensus discussion that followed the Summers interview, it was pleasing to hear another former U.S. official take a more accommodative view of privacy. Former Commodities and Futures Trading Commission Chairman Christopher Giancarlo said that "getting the privacy balance right" is a "design imperative" for the digital dollar concept he is actively promoting.
But to hold both governments and corporations to account on that design, we need an aware, informed public that recognizes the risks of ceding their civil liberties to governments or to GoogAzonBook.
Let's talk about this, people.
A missing asterisk
Control for all variables. At the end of the day, the dollar's standing as the world's reserve currency ultimately comes down to how much the rest of the world trusts the United States to continue its de facto leadership of the world economy. In the past, that assessment was based on how well the U.S. militarily or otherwise dealt with human- and state-led threats to international commerce such as Soviet expansionism or terrorism. But in the COVID-19 era only one thing matters: how well it is leading the fight against the pandemic.
So if you've already seen the charts below and you're wondering what they're doing in a newsletter about the battle for the future of money, that's why. They were inspired by a staged White House lawn photo-op Tuesday, where President Trump was flanked by a huge banner that dealt quite literally with a question of American leadership. It read, "America Leads the World in Testing." That's a claim that's technically correct, but one that surely demands a big red asterisk. When you're the third-largest country by population – not to mention the richest – having the highest number of tests is not itself much of an achievement. The claim demands a per capita adjustment. Here's how things look, first in absolute terms, then adjusted for tests per million inhabitants.
Binance support number 1844-907-0583 has frozen funds linked to Upbit's prior $50 million data breach after the hackers tried to liquidate a part of the gains. In a recent tweet, Whale Alert warned Binance support number 1844-907-0583 that a transaction of 137 ETH (about $28,000) had moved from an address linked to the Upbit hacker group to its wallets.
Less than an hour after the transaction was flagged, Changpeng Zhao, the CEO of Binance support number 1844-907-0583, announced that the exchange had frozen the funds. He also added that Binance support number 1844-907-0583 is getting in touch with Upbit to investigate the transaction. In November 2019, Upbit suffered an attack in which hackers stole 342,000 ETH, accounting for approximately $50 million. The hackers managed to take the funds by transferring the ETH from Upbit's hot wallet to an anonymous crypto address.

During the coronavirus, are cryptocurrencies suffering or taking advantage of the moment?
Up until just a short time ago cryptocurrencies were considered to be a sort of safe haven. This idea has gained greater strength in the measure in which, during recent periods of crisis and instability, the Bitcoin has risen in value; however, now, with the pandemic of the coronavirus hitting the entire planet, the freefall of the cryptocurrency quotes most used these days shows an uncertain scenario and demystified the option of "safe haven".
https://preview.redd.it/yspkat1aan151.jpg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e692f86d3141a021fce448812f3a3815b886ccb5
Halfway through February, before the before the pandemic became widespread, Bitcoin's quote reached over 10,200 dollars, its highest quote during the last seven months; but, from that moment on the decline has been resounding – around 40% - so that its present value is in the region of 6,300 dollars. In its fall, Bitcoin dragged other cryptocurrencies along with it, like Ethereum which lost 29% as went from 194 dollars to 137, and Ripple, which ceded 22%.
What provoked the decline in prices?
Cryptocurrencies operate contrary to the traditional financial system, because they don't need banks; however, this doesn't make them immune to the economic chaos unleashed by the pandemic.
In China's case, the country where the virus arose, the analysts waited for the launch of the digital yuan; however, the Wuhan crisis will postpone the presentation of the new cryptoasset between three and six months, since, according to YuanJie Zhang, the director of operations of Conflux, "The majority of the budget's resources were spent in containing the virus".
For Zhang, the coronavirus hasn't had a negative impact on the cryptocurrency mining industry in China, because the majority of these farms continued working and never hired a lot of people.
Nevertheless, the fall in prices was evident. What could have provoked it? This continues to be a subject that divides the experts, since more than a few feel that there are no clear elements that explain the downward trend, because cryptocurrencies aren't affected by the prices of petroleum and or the global recession.
According to various experts, the decline was expected because Bitcoin, for example, saw its price rise 100% during the last six months and many investors opted to sell them now to cover the losses that they suffered in their portfolios from other assets with variable yield.
Others look for a link to the pandemic and analyze that the collapse in prices was produced at the moment when the bonds and shares fell around the world. The investors suffered so many losses that they had to liquidate assets that, at this time, have enough value to cover their obligations.
"Investors are liquidating alternative assets like gold and cryptocurrencies to comply with obligations of the market and to create cash reserves, a theme that is similar to what happened during the last financial crisis," stated Matthew Dibb, co-founder and director of Stack operations.
A variation is that the retail investors have sold their cryptoassets so that this way they can obtain money that will allow them to obtain more food, medical supplies and take on other monthly expenses, since extended quarantines impede them from working and, therefore, generate income.
Blockchain initiatives against the coronavirus
The donations in cryptocurrencies to support the most affected areas with medical supplies or to encourage research about the coronavirus have increased in recent times.
The Binance exchange donated 1.4 million dollars to the Chinese authorities for medical supplies. The project was called "Binance for Wuhan". In addition, Binance Charity continues to be wrapped up in raising five million dollars in cryptocurrencies that make it possible to buy essential medical articles for the countries most affected by the coronavirus.
The crowdfunding platform The Giving Block launched a campaign for donating cryptoassets, in coordination with Gitcoin, an open code reward platform in the Ethereum blockchain.
The decentralized Alliance of AI presented the #COVIDathon, considered the first hackathon designed to help the medical industry to search for solutions that allow them to battle the COVID-19. This alliance depends on more than 50 members of the blockchain.com space, Ocean Protocol, Aragon, Shivom and SingularityNet.
Ripple Labs donated 200,000 dollars to two non-profit organizations, Tipping Point Community and Silicon Valley Community Foundation, to contain the propagation of COVID-19 in the United States.
The Napoli Blockchain Association undertook a crypto fund raiser that made the purchase of a large amount of appliance equipment possible for strengthening medical attention in Italy.

I-Team: Greyhound Racks Up Nearly $1 Million in Unpaid New York Thruway Tolls
Greyhound has racked up more than $760,00 in unpaid tolls in fees dating back to 2011
By Chris Glorioso and Dave Manney	• Published at 10:06 am on August 17, 2017
Greyhound has racked up more than $760,00 in unpaid NY Thruway tolls, with some of the violations dating back to 2011
The revelation came in a list of top toll violators requested under the Freedom of Information Law
The bus company says a mistake was made with license plates and that it has worked to resolve its debt
Amid a crackdown by New York State on E-ZPass toll violators, the NBC 4 New York I-Team has discovered Greyhound is a top offender, having racked up more than $760,00 in unpaid tolls on the New York State Thruway. Some of the violations date back to 2011.
The revelation came on a list of top toll violators requested under the Freedom of Information Law.
Greyhound's parent company, First Group Leasing Nominee, is the runaway No. 1 scofflaw with 7,410 open violations – and a debt to the state of $763,738.

New York is currently running an advertising campaign intended to encourage drivers to purchase E-ZPasses. The state has also increased penalties for repeat violators and is scanning license plates at cash-less tolls to help nab offenders.
"Toll evaders flaunt the law and do so on the backs of hardworking New Yorkers who play by the rules," Gov. Cuomo said in January when he announced the new measures.
For six years, the Thruway Authority sent collection notices to First Group Leasing in Dallas, Texas. But it wasn't until this year that the state realized First Group is affiliated with Greyhound and its sister brand Bolt Bus.
Now the Thruway Authority and Greyhound say an administrative mixup related to E-ZPass is to blame for the bus company's enormous debt.
"E-ZPass account holders are required to update their license plates on their account. It is apparent that this company did not update their license plates contributing to the violations," a spokesperson for the Thruway Authority said.
Greyhound agreed a mistake was made with license plates.
"Our belief is that when the file was sent to NY E-ZPass, they uploaded the incorrect data column and it resulted in our plates being improperly listed," a Greyhound spokesperson said. "The NY Thruway Authority has several addresses on file for us, including prior mailing addresses, resulting in us not receiving many of the notices."
Greyhound said it worked to resolve its debt.
"We have come to an agreement with the New York Thruway Authority on the amount to be paid by Greyhound to settle the fines we owe," a spokesperson said. "We will be paying the balance agreed upon on our next routine payment cycle ... We have been in good standing with the New York Thruway Authority for many years, and will once again be in good standing as the issue has been resolved."

Complete Guide to Spectrum Games – Part 7
September 16, 2007 Nathan Games, Sinclair 6
Well, after that short break, normal service is being resumed. Without further ado, I bring you – Part Seven!
Adversary – Steve Roe, 1984
And hey, that's still more of an introduction than this game gives you. Look, this is what appears as soon as the game loads…
See? And at least I'm not expecting you to leave a comment before I do anything else. However, a lot like me this game does stop for long periods of time, apparently no longer interested in playing. For instance, I'm still waiting for it to take its second move. It's been nearly five minutes now, which is about as long as I was going to play it in total. Y'know what, I'm going to claim victory against the computer here – I've moved two pawns and just totally psyched it out. For this poor performance, I'll have to score it, ooh… one out of Big Blue.
Aegean Voyage – Spinnaker Software, 1984
And here's another one that just drops you straight into the game. After the minor preamble of being asked for the number of players, you get to sail a reasonably pretty sea. At first it seems to be a simple maze game, but then a giant floating Zardoz wannabe comes out of nowhere spraying lightning all over the shop.
Dodge that, and eventually the juddery scrolling stops, leaving you with nowhere to go. A barely-there typhoon'll smash up your ship, and that's that. You don't seem to be able to land on any of those beaches, and there doesn't seem to be anywhere to go. Still, look at those minimalist graphics. Mm.
Aerea – JS Software, 1984
Bugger, it's in Spanish. What the hell does all this mean?
Okay, okay… let's say that 'aviones' are aeroplanes. 'Ano 1' is year one. 'Carta' is either map or menu… I think this might be an airline management simulation.
Ah, yes. Very interesting. Now to put this valuable information to use…
Alright, I don't speak Spanish at all. Perdidas out of impuestos. Next!
AeroBirds – Compiuter Soft, 2006
See that picture? That's about half a second into the game. Less than half a second after that, I'm looking at (c) 1982 Amstrad. While this wonder of modern twenty-first century programming has saved me some time, it's also got a really irritating squealy noise that it works in twice before I get to play it, so now this game owes me some points.
Afghan Attack – Southern Software, 1985
Ooh, look at that loading screen. Atmospheric, eh? What do you suppose the chances are of the game matching up? Well, it's got twenty-three pages of introductory text before telling me to 'press any key to load part 1'. Not a great start.
And then it's a text adventure. A text adventure in which you cannot move in any direction from the starting location (and yes, I tried up and down too). I think I'm owed some more points.
Africa – Phantomsoft
Oh god, another text adventure! And this time it's in German! And take a look at this…
Now, obviously I don't understand any German beyond what I remember from The Great Escape. That's not the biggest problem here. The biggest problem is the border. You can't see it in that screenshot, but it's going all Jeff Minter on my monitor and given me a headache in approximately zero point zero seconds. (Click it if you really want to get a glimpse of the horror.) Not only am I now owed points, but I'm also owed some sort of physical compensation.
Africa Gardens – Gilsoft, 1984
Well, it's another text adventure, and it's thankfully in English. Unfortunately it also has a really horrible parser, where things have to be typed in precisely as it tells you, and nothing can be examined. Two rooms in and I really can't be bothered with such a finicky game any more.
African Seeds – ZX Computing, 1985
I've learnt the hard way that when a game asks if you want to see instructions, you could be volunteering for twenty slow-moving screens of utter irrelevance, with the controls tacked onto the end. So when this game asked, I said, quite firmly, no. And then I was presented with this.
J was illegal, apparently, so I tried A. The computer then did the precise opposite from when it was playing Chess, and made about half a dozen moves, moving the board around completely. So now I've got this…
…and I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing. None of this makes sense. I'm guessing those are seeds, but what is it that makes them African? Why is it making all these noises? Why does the computer get to make five moves for every one I make? Why does this feel like a CGC entry? Why am I still trying to play it?
African Trail Simulator – Positive, 1990
What… what's this? Proper music? A proper menu screen? (Okay, the text is blimmin' hard to read, but still.) Could this be… a proper game?
Great pip! It's a real, live, playable machine code game! It's a side-scrolling game, where-in you ride a motorbike as fast as you can from one end of the track to the other, going over hills and things. I'm truly awful at it, but I don't care. It's a proper game at last! After working my way through all that dross, I've finally been rewarded… This game earns a grateful ten out of ten.
So, at the end of that little lot, I'm owed twenty points and at least three bottles of something good. That was worth putting off… er, waiting for, wasn't it, eh, Spec-chums? Next time, it's Aftermath to Agent X!
CSS Crap Games Competition – A Reminder
Jeff Braine
Hurrah, lawks and a toffee cream slice slapped on the thighs of a tights-clad archer!
Getting into the real games now old chum. Can't wait until you get to L.
Jinkies! Yoiks!
NickH
African Seeds looks very similar to a game that came on one of my old mobile phones, and I can't for the life of me remember what you have to do…
Aegean Voyage looks EXACTLY like Zelda, Wind Waker on the Gamecube. EXACTLY like it.
David Faltskog
Great to see the A to Z back! Keep it up, 2012 is getting closer 😀
African Seeds is quite obviously Mancala or a derivative. The reason the computer appears to have twenty-six goes to your one, is because it knows how to play it. After you drop the seeds into the cups, if the last one lands in a cup which has seeds in it already, you pick them all up and keep going.
Basically, what I'm saying is, you should probably have pressed "Y" when it asked "Do you want to read the instructions?"
(Proper hyperlink bunged in there, for extra time-saving clicky goodness! Ed.)
Pffft. Instructions, indeed. I'm not taking that sort of a chance. I'll keep putting my 'X's where-ever I feel like too!


In the Big Apple at last!
Big artistic vision, short time to work.
Pricey place, small paycheck, next steps?
The story begun in Piper Perish opens a new chapter for the teen artist as she arrives in New York City, far from family demands in Houston (= why I prefer this book to #1).
No need to read the first book to get caught up in Piper's explorations of NYC's art scene and her own artistic ideas.
Head for your local library or independent bookstore to dive into NYC with Piper.
Away from home and family – what's your first move?
Book info: [author site] [publisher site] Review copy and cover image courtesy of the publisher.
In New York City at last, Piper works for a famous artist with a "new vision" but the Houston native also wants time for her own creative desires as she learns to navigate the city in a whirlwind season before starting art school.
Hired by Carlyle Campbell based on photos of her big senior project in Texas, now Piper must replicate that piece and several others for Fashion Week – fast!
Can she keep her own artistic focus while working to reflect what Carlyle wants the world to see?
The intense connection she felt online with her student mentor Silas seems erratic when they're together in person – hmmm.
It's Piper Perish in the big city as she leaps into the next chapter of her life – as long as she can find a way to stay here!
or will she beat Zero at its own game (game over, forever)?
Therapy and medications might keep Catherine's manic-depressive swings manageable right now, but she feels like such a burden to Mom.
If she can just accomplish a few things first – like being in love or having friends again – when the giant Zero of depression hits, Catherine will end it all, for good.
Can her history project partner Michael, his loud and loving family, and a girl from daily group therapy change her mind?
That depression coming for Catherine, the bottles of pills she's saving – paperback cover or hardcover?

visiting his grave seems right… so far from here.
So… if you just discovered at age 16 that you were a twin, would that explain why you never felt complete?
Emma thinks it's possible and that traveling from New York to North Carolina to see his headstone will help her in ways that her parents and much older siblings can't.
Peter longs to escape their small town, and a trip with Emma (just friends) is one way to start.
Another satisfying story of traveling, evolving friendship, and interesting secrets from the author of The Statistical Probability of Falling in Love (my notes here) and Geography of Me and You (noted here).

Hello Everyone, First off thank you all for your support and encouragement. The positivity is very important when creating custom technology. As in most cases companies or developers choose for modifying off the shelf solutions like wordpress or one of the other many solutions available. With indra.design that is a bit different in the way that we develop our own architecture and then choose various open source tools to bring our architecture together. The first part of that architecture is our rahula.club network which uses a platform called NodeBB to allow us to enter content into the system and communicate with our friends. It also has a great API so that way Indra can do things like create accounts, post blogs, and manage all the content from the various sites he will be publishing too in the future. NodeBB A better community platform for the modern web. NodeBB is next generation forum software. It's powerful, mobile-ready and easy to use. https://nodebb.org/ From there we open the API (Application Programming Interface) to Indra and then provide data to sites like https://indra.design so that way everyone can partake. Patreon Next comes into patreon where individuals who make offerings to support the development of indra.ai into the future will also be given a rahula.club account so that they can have access to all the features and also use rahula.club to publish their own websites too. Which I will talk more about in the future when the KEY system is complete. indra.design Then with the design/coding architecture of indra.design we can build amazing interfaces that interact with lots and lots of data and then pass that back into the AI for a most amazing experience. So that's all I'm going to write for now. Most of these are just to log my thoughts and test formatting on the new site, so I can make it work better for you in the future. Thanks again for all your support and encouragement over the last year while this all comes together.

Welcome to my website where you can see my art and read my thoughts
Today I was wondering around in thought thinking about "What is currency to an artist?" as it is different than currency in your pocket. An artist makes their own currency which they exchange for other forms of currency with buyers/patrons of the art. But what makes that currency valuable isn't the quality of the art itself it is in the size of the sharing network around the art. For example: Artist A has a sharing network of 100,000 people. Artist B has a sharing network of 100 people. Artist B is substantially a more technical artist who has difficulty in social situations. Artist A is a fly by night personality who makes prints but people adore. Artist A is going to have a more lucrative career as an artist over Artist B because the world supports personalities over talent. It is very simple in that way in the more people who know about your work. The more people there are to exchange various forms of currency for that work. The more likely you are to reach a success point where the Artist A or B has the resources to create from the imagination. So when it comes to art it is the artist with the largest social sharing network who will win in the end. The artists with personality difficulties will generally find it more difficult to create a large social sharing network. I'm one of the artists with personality difficulties, and everyday I struggle with creating the social sharing network that is required for an artist to be successful. Then you can see artists link Banksy or Mr. Brainwash who have the personality to gain a large social sharing network which has ensured the success of their art and provided the resources necessary to create it. -Quinn

10 20 Life
Speak with a St. Petersburg Criminal Defense Attorney
In 1999, Governor Bush signed into law the 10-20-LIFE bill. The law requires a minimum 10-year sentence for crimes committed with a gun, a 20-year sentence for firing the gun during the commission of a crime, and 25 years to life if the bullet fired caused death or injury. The legislation enacted to implement the Governor's proposal provided mandatory sentences for felons convicted of crimes in which they used a gun.
Since 1972, LeavenLaw has protected the rights of those facing difficult legal situations. We are proud to uphold a tradition of excellence and have established a track record of success for our clients.

Call our firm at 727-346-6050 today to learn more about your charges.
The bill signed in 1999 imposes harsh penalties on those who possess or use a gun in conjunction with a crime.
The following provisions Section 775.087 (2)-(4), Florida Statutes became effective for crimes committed on or after July 1, 1999:
For pulling a gun during a crime, a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years is imposed.
For certain felony crimes or attempted felonies, the 10-year mandatory sentence is authorized if the criminal possessed a gun (or destructive device).
For firing the gun during a crime the mandatory minimum sentence is 20 years.
For injuring or killing a victim by firing the gun during a crime, a mandatory minimum sentence from 25 years to life in prison is authorized.
For many years, it has been a felony crime in Florida for felons to possess guns. Recognizing that felons who possess guns, despite this violation of law, may intend to commit other serious crimes using guns, the 10-20-Life legislation provided for a mandatory minimum prison sentence of 3 years for such known felons who possess a gun. This provision alone has affected many felons sentenced to prison in Florida. The legislation also increased to a 15-year minimum prison term when the offender possesses a semiautomatic firearm and its high-capacity detachable box magazine or a machine gun.

Massive Metal Monday: "All We Are" By Warlock
By Ides Bergen | @ | December 1st, 2014 at 5:30 pm
Warlock was a German power metal band that was on the verge of a major breakthrough in the American market when their fourth album, Triumph & Agony, was released in 1987. The album's first single, "All We Are," became a staple during the height of MTVs "hair metal" phase and the band's striking front woman Doro Pesch had become an icon for females in metal and somewhat of a sex symbol.
Watch the video for "All We Are" here, below.
