Me, too. I adore his sense of humor! And I'm still loving his book, "A New Turn In The South".
Carrie L. wrote:Okay, so I have been holding off opening this thread until I got to watch. I figured it would be On Demand and went to watch it last night but no luck. I recorded it at 10am this morning and just finished watching.
Agree with you and Daisy completely. Emeril was by far the toughest...I thought for sure that soup with all the seafood and chorizo would have made it. It looked and sounded great to me. Also thought he liked the cauliflour soup well enough. Guess not. Wolfgang Puck's group was by far the worst. Blindfolded, we all could make better looking omelets than any of those! They were all covering them up with additional ingredients because they couldn't even get them out of the pan without sticking. HAS ANYONE HEARD OF BUTTER??? Hello? The Asian girl's omelet looked and sounded horrendous but she made it through okay. How about Rao's ex wife. What a hot mess she is! Honey, go get a few more collagen injections. On to the salads, nothing to write home about on any of them in my opinion. Pretty lame for esteemed chefs. My take on this season is that the judges or producers actually made up their minds on who would pack their knives and who would move on during the pre-screening process and not these "quick fires."
Okay, Jenise who are your crushes? Please don't tell me the Belgian Knight. There was only one who appealed to me...the Asian/German guy who traveled all over. I can't remember any names at this point. Finally, what is with all the handle bar mustaches? Oh pleeezze no....
Should be an interesting season! Looks like a lot of crazy on-location stuff. Helicopters, sled dogs, yikes!
Jenise wrote:Rao's ex--wasn't she awful? At one point she's on camera speaking after they show her in the kitchen, and her lips are twice the size they were. I played it back to show Bob. I predict she'll be one of the first to go--or at least, I hope so.
Re the Belgian, um, yes! He's tall, he's gorgeous and he has an accent. That's three of my favorite things! And the moustaches: is there any bigger turnoff than a handlebar? They always scream insecurity to me, though I can't put my finger on exactly why.
Should be a fun season. They all end up getting on a cruise ship to Juneau for the finale!
Carrie L. wrote:
I think Rao's ex is there solely for the drama factor. I hope she's gone soon. Really bugs me.
The Belgian, yes, I guess I can see it on the physical level, but he's so full of himself. Who's your other crush?
Agree about the handbars, and really any other "affectatious" facial hair.
Can't wait for next week!
Jenise wrote:No! I've temporarily relocated to southeast Washington with my sick cat who is getting treatment at the outstanding vet teaching hospital here, and I don't get the Bravo channel in my little apartment. . We're going home for the long holiday weekend, so ill catch up then. Good one?
Jenise wrote:Yup, the Tamster. This is expected, it wa just however expected to start ten weeks earlier. She had one complication after another, though, so we were much delayed. Not one thing has gone right for this poor cat, and none of the issues were predictable. Like this week--she has to have anesthesia for her daily treatment, and this hospital uses this this state of the art spends stuff that no other hospital on the west coast has. They go under and pop out in like the snap of a finger. Only two animals in ten years have had adverse reactions to it, and both were dogs. Guess who was the third? My god she was sick--and of course it's so rare that I had to overcome the initial suspicion of bad parenting, it couldn't be their precious gas.
Typical--every time we think we're out of the woods, were wrong. She's handling it better than I am, I think.
Daisy D wrote:While I agree with you Carrie that Carla was becoming entertaining to watch, I do have to say I'm happy with the way last week's Canalis episode played out. I don't know if I agree with the second elimination, however, when one chooses such a classic dish that was a 'special' item to a restaurant, you do run a very high risk of going home if you don't nail it.
Carrie L. wrote:I hear you about the second elimination, though I must say I knew before she even served it she would end up in the bottom. Even us viewers could tell it was way overdressed, right?
Want to make a comment about Stefan. I could not stand him the first time he was on Top Chef. This time, I'm finding him quite likeable. He's a little humbled, and actually pretty charming! Anyone else finding this?

Faculty Experts for Valley Issues and Beyond
Californians are increasingly aware of the importance of the San Joaquin Valley in the state's current and future economies. The state already depends on the Valley and the adjacent Sierra Nevada for water and food. In the future, more of California's important ideas and human resources will also come from this growing region.
As it grows, the Valley faces a unique set of challenges. UC Merced aims to address those challenges by taking advantage of the Valley's resources and bringing together interdisciplinary teams of experts whose top-level research coincides with the problems our communities need to solve.
From air quality and climate change to immigration and labor, you will find experts at UC Merced to comment on the most pressing issues faced in the Valley today — issues affecting all of California now and in the future.
We encourage members of the media to contact these faculty members using the information given on their individual Faculty Experts pages. For additional assistance, you may always contact the Office of Communications.

Wasp Boss Bullet 100's, need a deer to get in the way of one to decide if I will continue.
Printable View
Wasp Boss Bullet 100's, need a deer to get in the way of one to decide if I will continue.
Slick Trick 100 standards......wicked sharp out of the package, can't count how many times I've cut myself putting them together :eek: and they fly like field points. Also use G5 Montecs because they fly like field points and can be easily resharpened. Usually carry a Rage 2 blade in the quiver also since fall turkey season here runs during deer season.
been using TR rocket aerohead 75grn. mini blaster 3's since "04".never had a problem with them! I used NAP spitfires and had them not open on deer. try explaining a round hole in a deer during bow season to a game warden!won't use them ever again.:eek:
since were on the topic of broadheads.has anyone ust the muzzy mx3.i see i has a wider cuting diamiter.but how does it fly.will it still be tru at 50 yards.or is it a 30 yard treestand broadhead.i walk and stalk.
After reading pretty much all the arrow lethality reports published by Dr Ed Ashby I decided to try out the Grizzly broadheads he touted as being the top or always near the top for penetration and bone breaking capability, allowing the broadhead to reach the vitals more reliably than most. After shooting these I've been able to confirm almost all that he said they do. The only thing I haven't had the opportunity to do yet is put them through an animal - the reason being I just switched to them last summer and only called in and saw spike bulls last fall and couldn't shoot them (not enough antler points). I can tell you though they fly VERY well (very accurate) and cut a spiral wound channel just like he and others have observed. The only downside is they are somewhat hard to get sharp initially, but once done they hold a very good edge and are nearly indestructible.
If you aren't familiar with the good doctor you can check out his many field test reports that he's published over the years from here (http://www.tradgang.com/ashby/). They are well worth the time as he's spent close to 30 years testing all types of broadheads, arrows, arrow weights and combinations of different weights and FOC by shooting into live and just killed African game animals of all types and sizes. He's recorded his findings in about as scientific a manner as a person could do so as to not induce bias.
i used rockets stellheads 100gr for years ran out, then rage two blade 100gr for one week did not like them at all ,then back to what i started off hunting with 100gr 3blade muzzys.. one i would like to try is slicktricks 100gr
started out w GK Deadhead 100gr. Very tough,good flight,killed many deer and squirrel. Hard to find now,though. 100gr Muzzy 3 blade,could never get to fly well for practice so I never used them for huntin. Wasp Hammer SST's. Tough w good flight,great blood trail,many deer killed. 100gr Steel Force 2blade, not so tough,dart like flight,reasonably priced,extremely sharp out of the pkg. Thinking of trying them again.killed a few deer. Thunderhead 100gr,good flight w tuning,broken blades and bent ferrule after penetration. Blood trail weak. Magnus 2blade(Nuge blades). Quite tough but sometimes curls from shoulder hits. Good flight w minor tuning. Marginal blood trail but HUGE hole on last seasons deer. Was actually accused by my two brothers,dad,and brother-in-law as well as co-workers of using my 12g pump(anothe pic for A.S. To post?) Carbon Express Mayhem EXT 100gr 3blade,opened pkg, shot into target and had blades break on third shot. CX made it right by seng me a free pkg but not sure I'll hunt w them. Picked up some NAP Nitrons for $15/3pk(Walmart clearance) very sharp,minor planing,However...my bow wasn't properly tuned at that point either. Also in 100gr 3blade. Further practice will determine usage.
now, I was checking out the RamCats yesterday. What's you review of those?
For my Moab, Slick Trick 100 gr. mags or Shuttle T-locks. Both fly great, and get great penetration. For my Firecat, I shoot 100 gr. Rage 2 blade. Haven't been able to get fixed blades to fly well out of it so far. Still working on it though. For turkey hunting, I use a Mini-Max 3 blade expandable 100gr. Huge diameter, and puts alot of shock on the bird when hit. Definitely puts them down where you hit them, if hit well.
Three blade 125 grain thunderheads love them I have only lost two deer In the last 19 years and both were questionable shots!

Contractor Karl Kado testified Monday that Bernard Kilpatrick insisted on being paid for helping him get more than $3 million the city owed him. Kado says he never got that money, but he did get the entire conversation on a wire he wore for the FBI.Kado and Bernard Kilpatrick started out as friends, but that all changed after Kilpatrick's son was elected mayor. A few months after taking office, Kwame Kilpatrick called with a message: Karl, we need $10,000.Over the next five years, Kado says he gave Bernard Kilpatrick and his son hundreds of thousands of dollars -- all to keep the mayor and his minions from messing with his contracts at Cobo Hall. Kado's testimony was all a far cry from what jurors had been told to expect three months ago.Defense attorneys had said Kado was suffering from dementia, but there was nothing foggy about his recall.Other government witnesses have testified that Bernard Kilpatrick provided some services for the thousands he was paid. Kado is the first to call the payments flat out extortion.Prosecutor Michael Bullotta asked, "Why did you begin paying Bernard Kilpatrick?"Kado answered, "He's the mayor's father."Bullotta then asked, "Did you pay him as a consultant?"Kado responded, "Consultant? Consultant for what?"Kado pleaded guilty to tax fraud charges stemming from his payments to the Kilpatricks. He will not do any time, in part because he is cooperating, but the native of Iraq says he is cooperating because he got sick of the Kilpatricks' shake downs.Discussing one payment to Kilpatrick aide Derrick Miller, Bullotta asked, "Why not give him a check?"Kado answered, "I am like hostage there. It's like hostage in Iraq. If you pay, you get them out. I am like hostage in Cobo."Kado also provided free office space to Bernard Kilpatrick in a downtown building and leased another building to the city for its Department of Administrative Hearings. Kado says the city owes him about a million dollars for renovations that he made there.Jurors also heard Kado and Kilpatrick discussing money the city still owes Kado on a wire he wore for the feds. The recording played in court was fuzzy, but clear enough to hear the elder Kilpatrick say, "I gotta get something out of this."John Shea, one of Bernard Kilpatrick's attorneys, says there is more to Kado's story."Wait for the cross examination," he tells reporters.One of the things Shea is sure to bring up is Kado's past. I was in court a few years ago when Kado received a slap on the wrist from the judge in his case. It's far too early to tell what will happen in this case, but if the jury returns guilty verdicts, there's no doubt in my mind the judge in this case won't blow kisses to the defendants like Kado's judge did.

SPOKANE, Wash. - Spokane Firefighters were called to a house fire Sunday morning in west Spokane.
The call came in shortly before 9:00am after callers reported seeing smoke coming from the basement of a home in the 1900 block of West Augusta. Firefighters arrived on scene and made entry into the home in an effort to extinguish the flames in the basement before they spread. However, once inside the fire grew quickly and jumped from the basement to the first floor. Firefighters exited the house and began another offensive attack from the outside. Once outside, firefighters quickly put out the blaze.
Authorities say the two occupants where able to escape unharmed, however a couple of dogs were in the basement and died in the fire. No other injuries were reported.
Fire investigators are on scene trying to determine a cause.
As soon as we get any additional information, we will be sure to update this story.

Amarillo, Texas - It was Christmas in March for an area organization today thanks to a large donation. Dillard's department store has been a sponsor of Ronald McDonald's houses not just nation-wide, but here in Amarillo for many years. Without the generosity of such donors, this organization wouldn't be a home away from home for the families who rely on it while their children are in the hospital.
"We are having Christmas in march at Dillard's today," Craig Seiter, Dillard's store manager says.
A check for more than $11,000 was donated today to The Ronald McDonald house, thanks to sales of a holiday cookbook at Dillard's.
"Without the support of our community in Amarillo and all the communities that serve Amarillo, we would not be able to make this happen today," Seiter says.
Funding for The Ronald McDonald house comes from donations.
"We don't participate in any government programs. It's strictly like I said through corporate partnerships and through sponsorships," Shelly Cunningham, Ronald McDonald House of Amarillo Director says.
Donations from the community are also important to help keep their doors open. April Martinez who is currently staying at the house, while her newborn son is in the hospital, says her and her family will give back after their stay like others she has seen.
"We have families that come back that have been there before and they give back. They cook dinner. They know what it's like to be every three hours at the hospital and come home at midnight. And so, whenever we come home we plan on giving back too just as much because we know how much that means," Martinez says.
Any donation large or small is used by the families who stay there. An easy way anyone can donate to The Ronald McDonald house is by saving soda can tabs to be recycled.

The progression and your dedication definatly shows. This is very naive to say but, I always thought people as good as you currently are just born with mad skills. Don't get me wrong your first sketchbook posts were still really good and now they are just mind boggling good. I respect you as an artist and your philosphy since you help out the art community with crits on your stream and you believe that knowledge that is common (something along those lines) and would help the community should be free which you said on stream once.
Keep killin it bro.

Bringing the Best in Artisan Food
Production to you,
and bringing you to meet the
Picture the scene.....
Early morning at Gortbrack. Into the Smokery. Put on your whites, this is serious food.
Sharp knife and wooden board are waiting, so are the sparkling fresh, silver wild fish.
Have patience, and borrow some skill from Sally Barnes. Fillet. Brine. Load the smoker. Tang of smoke from the sawdust smoulder.
When it's done, you'll have your own piece of West Cork to take home. Eat….enjoy…..remember.
Sounds like your kind of holiday experience? Then give us your preferred dates for a food-lover's holiday, tell us the kind of food and activities you like and we'll create a programme just for you!
What better recommendation than a word from our Patrons:
Our Patrons for West Cork Food are David and Patsy Puttnam who spend much of their time at their house near Skibbereen and are well-known for their active support of local artisan food producers.
"West Cork, a land of plenty, where green rolling meadows surrounded by an ocean stretching to infinity, combine to produce a landscape that plays host to an abundance of lovingly nurtured local food.
As the skill of numerous painter's reflects the unique West Cork light, so the artisans and small businesses of the area lavish their own care and commitment to what they produce; bringing freshly harvested foodstuffs to our tables every single day of the year."
Patsy Puttnam
West Cork has a reputation as a centre of excellence for artisan food production; a reputation founded on the care, commitment and skill that the artisan producers and providers of this enticingly beautiful part of Ireland bring to all that they do.
Many of them have a lifetime's worth of practical experience, and are more than happy to share their skill and passion with people who appreciate good food.
West Cork Food has been created to bring the treasure-house of that experience within the reach of individuals like you, people who truly appreciate good food, how it's produced and how it's cooked.
During a weekend or longer, you get to meet and visit artisan producers, watch the experts at work, acquire some new skills, stay in quality accommodation and enjoy the captivating landscape and seascape of West Cork in all its diversity.
West Cork is an area served and supported by small businesses, a key element of its distinctive character. West Cork Food is itself a small, local business, and we act as a focus for the wide range of artisan producers scattered across the region so that they can provide food, cookery or gardening enthusiasts like you with a unique experience; an experience that incorporates the active participation of those producers themselves.
West Cork Food is organised and managed by Sally Barnes and Stephen Sage, and grew out of their discussions around how to bring the world-class quality of West Cork artisan food production to a wider audience.
Journalist Carol Gilbert described the initiative in these terms: 'Sally Barnes and Stephen Sage have initiated an enterprise, which effectively joins up the dots. They have included all that is best to showcase West Cork food and provide an enjoyable quality experience for groups visiting the region.'
Sally Barnes
Sally Barnes has been an artisan food producer in West Cork for over 30 years. Sally's Woodcock Smokery specialises in products from slow-smoked, fresh wild-caught fish devoid of any artificial additives or preservatives.
Working with her daughter, she has built an international reputation for quality.
In 2006, Woodcock Smokery smoked salmon was awarded Best Speciality Product, Best Fresh Product and Supreme Champion in the Great Taste Awards, the ultimate recognition for food producers in the UK and Ireland. Along with other awards over the years, Woodcock also won Best Irish Speciality Award and a Special Judges Commendation in the Great taste Awards for 2009. As John McKenna in the Bridgestone Guide put it: 'That tells you all you need to know about the distinctiveness, deliciousness and utter singularity of this most gifted fish smoker's levels of creativity.'
Sally's comment is simple: 'Woodcock Smokery is a small, family-run business, making use exclusively of wild fish caught by sustainable methods. Our methodology is time-honoured and traditional and all our products take time to prepare and finish without making use of any colourings or artificial preservatives. All we add are salt, smoke, skill, care, and lots of time.'
Stephen Sage
Stephen's career has involved work as a senior manager for a large local authority in the UK as well as a wide diversity of customer groups and organisations including education, the arts, museums, archives, environmental initiatives, hospitals, prisons, elderly people, ethnic minority groups and those with disabilities.
He also has experience of events and conference organisation, training, exhibitions, publications and radio broadcasting.
Since moving to West Cork in 1998 Stephen has worked with Kearney Consultants on community development projects and as Editor for Irelands Web Services building web sites for businesses and organisations.

The important question is, who's going to reach 10,000 posts first, me or this thread?
What I really want is to have my 10,000th post be the 10,000th post in this thread.
Go MammaMia!!!
"Any idiot can face a crisis; it is this day-to-day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov
Ok lets see if I can help a bit....my house now has electric in it and some of the plumbing and furance/duct work. And I got to see the tub installed and shower. Wanted a huge garden tub but would have cost too much with making the room bigger and basically throwing everything off. But we were able to get a tub that is 2 inches deeper, 4 inches wider and 12 inches longer than standard!
Took me a while but finally decided on this for the fireplace tile http://daltile.com/series.cfm?series=232 it's the city elm one that we are going with.
Picking tile was so hard, second only to laminate counter tops! Too many choices and combinations. OMG I drove DH nuts.
I am in tears right now.
I've been fretting over my hospital bills from last year; collections has been calling and I've had no money to pay them.
I finally got my tax check and paid the first bill of 150.00. Then I called the collections agency for the 410.00 and they said if I didn't start making payments, I was gonna have to go to court. After speaking with my mom, she said she would pay the bill by the end of this month.
Then I called the hospital to ask about the big bill of 3,057.00. I had called before, but got nowhere with the financial aid office. When I called again, the woman said that I'd have to make a payment of 500.00 and then be able to do a payment plan, and I said I'd been unemployed. She said that she needed to speak to someone before giving me more information. I waited, and when she got back she told me that a charity organization paid my bill in full.
Basically.. it's all over. And I am crying so hysterically I can't even seen the screen right now. I cannot believe something that good happened.
I know now that I really shouldn't have left all those bills become friends with the dust bunnies, but I had no money and I figured there was nothing I could do. I am just so thankful that it worked out the way that it did. I knew there were charities around; I just didn't know they took care of what happened!
I guess maybe when I called a few months ago and explained my situation they sent it out for approval to be taken care of by a charity? I have no clue.
And again.. THIS is why I am for the health care bill.
"Any idiot can face a crisis; it is this day-to-day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov
In the beginning, I was crying for sadness. This past hour has been so full of severe ups and downs I'm not sure what to do with myself right now!
Well mine is awfully picky about how things look. So basically he wanted me to just present him with my top three choices. But I kept changing my mind and that was what drove him nuts.
But yeah he REALLY cares about things like curb appeal. We couldn't even look at a house if it had beige siding. LOL It HAD to have a living room in front with a big window. Couldn't be a bilevel or multilevel....it quickly became easier to just build. LOL
I'm happy that it's a Saturday night for the show and it's not one of the weekends DH has to work mandatory overtime. We will go down to my parents that weekend as the theater is a north Chicago subburb about 30 minutes from my parents. July 31st.
Maybe you could just write it in care of the hospital billing department and ask them to pass it along?
"Any idiot can face a crisis; it is this day-to-day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov
It's kinda funny that he's picky about the house and how it looks, although good in a way. You definitely don't want someone who's just gonna go "Eh, whatever," about everything. I think that's DBF sometimes.
Comedy shows are a lot of fun. Usually if you go during the week or on Sunday, the cover charge is less, though I think they always have the 2 drink minimum.
You are in Arlington, right? http://www.hyenascomedynightclub.com/
I worked a few nights here. The two comedians I know coming up are Ben Creed in May and J.R. Brow in June (JR and I worked together a lot - we had the same home club).
You should go - get a sitter and go forget about everything for a while. Your stomach will hurt from laughing!
Fun fact: Kelly Clarkson worked as a cocktail waitress at the comedy club in Ft. Worth before she hit it big!
"Any idiot can face a crisis; it is this day-to-day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov
I actually don't have any children so there's no sitter.. so that's taken care of. Clinton's been meaning to take me there.. and also find some open mic nights to do. He's been writing down stuff he wants to use in a comedy sketch when he actually gets the motivation to go and compete in one. I think he's hilarious, but I'm sorta biased there, haha.
That's really cool about Kelly Clarkson. I had no idea she was from Texas.
When we lived in Milwaukee, there was a club near the house and we went fairly often (I usually had free tickets and just had to pay a cover of two drinks a person). It was usually good but not always and were smaller names.
This is really cool because he's a big name and someone that we both just love and make a point to watch every week on HBO. And this one we are going to is in a fancy theater...I haven't been there before but my parents have and really like it. In fact that was how I found out about the show....my dad must be on the mailing list and asked me if that wasn't that guy that we liked.
Oh yeah I knew he was picky about decorating and looks of things...thank god we have similar taste!!!
It was funny, for about the first two years we were together it was always, whatever you want to me...we always did what I wanted and I got what I wanted. When several years into it, he started saying what he wanted once in a while, I was mad! Took me a bit of getting used to. Though luckily most of the time we agree on what to do or get.

Buick Keychains & Keyrings
Buick Keychains from the Internet's Number One Online Keychain Store Buick is a brand owned by General Motors, and is often billed as the number one American luxury car brand. Although Buicks are not sold in Europe, GM owned subsidiary Saab is said to take its place in the European market. Buicks has a well established market in China and is trying to extend its successful designs there to its American editions. LeSabre, Lucerne and Enclave, the latest SUV from Buick brand, are the presently available models in America.
Associated with prestige and solid engineering, Buicks success stems from David Dunbar Buicks innovation in developing the first overhead valve engine. On the back of his success, David Dunbar Buicks made a series of acquisitions which later culminated in General Motors as we know it today. Ensuring that his brand assets did not compete against each other, he positioned his distinct brands to target different market segments, which in a way was productive idea. Buick, along with Cadillac, is targeted at the high-end market while other GM brands offer less prestigious models.
Our collection of Buick key chains is equally as impressive as their 4 wheel counterparts exhibiting the same ritzy gloss and appealing elegance. Our chrome Buick key chains and our silver and leather models are stylish and classy and are intricately designed and the finish is immaculate. When you are looking for a Buick key chain to indicate that you are proud of your car, there are no better deals available than what wholesalekeychain.com has to offer.

Simon Roberts: We English
In August 2007 award-winning photographer Simon Roberts embarked upon on a 13-month journey around England to document the lives and landscapes of his home country with a large format camera. The resulting photographs are lush in their painterly composition—Roberts lists Breughel and LS Lowry as influences—but defiantly mundane in subject matter, conceived as an unflinching and unbiased exploration of what it means to be English today. They are collected in We English, published by Chris Boot.

Comments about iRobot Advanced Power System (APS) Battery:
I've had Roombas since the earliest models. I now have my second 700 series, having worn out the first. The current NiMH battery pack for Roomba (combined with a power-saving design) means that my Roomba now runs 3x as long as the earlier models, even the 500 series. It will run for an hour or two on a charge, and then rapidly charges. For this application, where weight is not an issue (and may actually help traction) NiMH is actually superior to Li-ion. Very happy with this. My 700 series battery (carried over from the original 700) started dying; it only lasted about 30 minutes, so I got a new one. This is expected for any battery with frequent use, whether Li-ion or NiMH.

With friends in L.A. a few weeks ago, in which we raided their cellar of every 2005 California pinot noir we could dig out, a corked Clos Pepe was disappointing. I encouraged my friends, who had never done so before, to contact the winery about getting a replacement.
They called the other night to tell me what happened. They called, and Wes Hagen, proprietor/winemaker, answered the phone. Wes was super friendly and agreeable, "of course, of course", and when John offered to mail the corked bottle (and his original receipt!), something about the raucous way Wes said "hell no, we don't want that shit up here!" made John decide it would be more fun to visit the winery in person the following weekend rather than having Wes just mail a bottle. They live in Ventura county and were going to be in the area anyway. An appointment was made. As John told me this, I immediately pictured him teetering out of the winery carrying multiple cases, like Thomas Haden Church the non-wine-drinker in Sideways after he met Sandra Oh in the tasting room.
And that turned out to be fairly close to the truth. Wes was a total mensch, turning them loose in his library to select any wine they wanted to replace the corker, and "comped" a number of other bottles. Plus, of course, John found a lot of great wine he couldn't live without and repaid the hospitality with a major purchase. So where they incidentally owned some of Wes' wine before, they'll now be customers for life.

Bailey McCann, Opalesque New York:
Endurance Series Trust, a multi-series trust, is launching with Gator Capital Management, LLC as the adviser for the Trusts first mutual fund series. Endurance Fund Services, LLC, an independently owned and operated fund administration company will serve as the fund administrator for mutual funds in the trust.
Endurance Series Trust is the latest multi-series trust to enter the rapidly expanding liquid alternatives arena. Unlike some of their competitors the trust plans to keep the number of funds included below 20. They will also be working with managers who are new to the mutual fund space, to offer what they consider to be a lower-cost, high touch platform.
"Trusts are usually sponsored by financial institutions, or big administrators like a State Street or a Northern Trust, but after examining those models we thought they werent as advantageous as they could be for managers new to the space," explains Endurance Series Trust President and CEO, Andres Sandate in an interview with Opalesque.
"Many of these platforms are one-stop-shops so if you are unhappy with any of the services youre going to be stuck," he says. Using Endurance Series Trust to launch a mutual fund allows investment managers to outsource operational and administrative functions to Endurance Fund Services.
Investment advisers who form and manage their mutual funds via Endurance Series Trust are also provided with compliance professionals and access ......................

The Foscarini keynote is research, into forms and materials, as well as ideas. Established in 1981 in Venice, Foscarini started out by exploring the opportunities offered by Murano glass. The management assures brand identity and coherence by careful conservation of its Murano heritage, whilst being ever ready to consider new objectives and to exercise its rare capacity for talent scouting.
The company works with both established designers who've created new trends and with younger, emerging exponents of alternative styles and approaches. This makes for a highly original catalogue and one of the most varied in the sector. Over the years, the range of materials used has expanded to include satin-finished glass, polyethylene, wood and aluminium, as well as patented materials such as an exclusive textured glass-tissue and carbone fibre composite.
