best dark beers – Planet Of

Planet Of Beer

Dark Horse is proud to present . . . actually, make that giggling manically as they present one of the silliest – yet most subversive and darkly funny – collections of comics you’ll see this year. Planet of Beer selects the best and weirdest comic strips from the popular underground weekly comic Smell of Steve in one gloriously colored, landscape format book. Join creator Brian Sendelbach’s all-misfit cast of under-loved underwater superheroes, space-faring former U.S. presidents, soul-sucking alien DJs, Bigfoot, the Loch Ness Monster, and other insane characters as they work together to find the elusive and legendary Planet of Beer. Actually, that’s way more of a sensible plot than you’ll actually find in this book, but if you like your comics absurd, awesome, and maybe just a tiny bit disturbing and wrong, we’re pretty sure you’re going to love this book.

Day 119 – Best Beer Ever

The Bourbon County Stout from Goose Island Brewery in Illinois is quite possibly the best beer I’ve ever had. I’ve drank quite a few beers. I don’t generally even really love dark beers, unless they are exceptional in some way. This is exceptional in basically every way. This is the richest, best tasting, most alcoholic, smoothest, heartiest, coffee-ist, chocolatiest, most spectacular stout ever. I normally go for the IPA or Double IPA styles (my top five is top heavy with those), but this one makes the list easily anyway.

We bought a 4-pack of this at the liquor store a few weeks back, and loved it so much we immediately ordered "a few" more bottles of it online. We didn’t make it back to the store to pick them up until last night. I’m so glad that my liquor cabinet is well stocked with this spectacular specimen of a beer. I do plan to savor them. I wonder if they will age well, or if they should be drunk promptly . . . either way is good to me.

Now, back to work. *sigh*

This is the time to think boldly about adolescent literacy. So much of what we know about adolescents and their learning has changed in the last decade, and since then both the world of education and the world at large have become very different places. Adolescent Literacy convenes a conversation among today’s most important educational thinkers and practitioners to address crucial advances in research on adolescent learning, to assess which of our current practices meets the challenges of the twenty-first century, and to discover transformative ideas and methods that turn the promise of education into instructional practice.

In Adolescent Literacy renowned educators Kylene Beers, Bob Probst, and Linda Rief lead twenty-eight of the most important and widely read educators across the country in a conversation about where we are in the teaching of literacy to adolescents and how best to move forward. From researchers to classroom teachers, from long-treasured voices to important new members of the education community, Adolescent Literacy includes the thoughts of central figures in the field today.

Adolescent Literacy discusses the most provocative issues of our time, including:
English language learners
struggling readers
technology in the classroom
multimodal literacy
compelling writing instruction
teaching in a “flat world”
young adult literature.

Each of its chapters builds on the previous to create a unified story of adolescent literacy that will help all middle and secondary teachers and administrators envision literacy instruction in exciting new ways. In addition Adolescent Literacy’sassessment rubrics for teachers, administrators, and staff developers make it an ideal resource for schoolwide and districtwide professional development, while its accompanying study guide is perfect for small-group discussions.

Now is indeed the time to create a powerful vision of how to teach adolescents. The research on their learning has reached a critical mass, modern technology has allowed them to engage in a far wider range of literate behaviors than ever before, and their world has become increasingly connected, increasingly competitive, and increasingly polarized. Read Adolescent Literacy, consider the thoughts of leading educators, and join a conversation about what it means to teach and learn in this dynamic new environment. And do it soon, because the need to turn education’s promise into classroom practice has never been more urgent.
