text: The Rhone appellation furthest north, the translation of Cote Rotie is "roasted slope," named after the region's very steep, south facing slopes that have ideal exposure to the sun. There are two main slopes, Cote Brunes & Cote Blondes. They are just as they sound, with the darker Brunes soils consisting of rich clay and iron, producing firm and robust wine. The lighter soils of the Blondes slope contain more slate and limestone, making elegant and soft wine. Wine can be from one designated slope, or a blend of both – the label will designate which it is.

Andy Irons remembered in Kauai
Andy Irons was remembered today in a memorial ceremony on his home island of Kauai. On the road into Hanalei Bay, decorations were visible everywhere. Many signs read things like, "Andy, we love you" and "1978 – Forever". On the walk down to the crowded beach, the letters 'A.I.' stood 25 feet tall, made of leaves and bamboo, erected by Robert Pa. Marquees lined the beach, with Andy memorabilia and t-shirts printed with 'AI', above a love heart and the letter 'U'. One huge wall was decorated with Irons family photos, including pictures of a handsome young Andy, many of which were with brother Bruce.

NYSERDA seeks proposals for its Advanced Building Program - Deadline: December 31, 2013Oct 24, 2013 at 1:00pm
PON 2606 Advanced Buildings Program
NYSERDA seeks proposals for development and demonstration activities that advance the energy performance of both new and existing buildings in the residential, multi-family or commercial sector. Technology areas of interest include, but are not limited to: construction materials, strategies and practices; HVAC and lighting technologies, automation technologies enabling load flexibility and smarter background operations; and building integrated renewable energy systems. Energy improvements in buildings can also result from activities that do not involve development of new products or construction methods; improvements can result from new policies, regulations or assessments. NYSERDA also seeks proposals for activities to remove inadvertent barriers that hinder the wider use of promising technologies. Added consideration will be given to technologies and opportunities that in addition to improving the energy and environmental performance, increase building resiliency, recovery, and adaptability to disruptions in the electric grid. The total available funding under six rounds of this solicitation is $25 million. The solicitation and associated documents can be found at
A informational webinar regarding NYSERDA's Program Opportunity Notice (PON) 2606 Advanced Buildings Program will be held on November 5th, 2013 at 1 PM EST. The webinar will provide information on the solicitation including technology areas of interest, eligible project categories and funding, program requirements, and the proposal submission process.
The webinar will provide answers to frequently asked questions and offer participants the opportunity to submit additional questions. Proposals for Round 3 of this solicitation must be received on December 3rd, 2013 by 5:00 pm Eastern Time.

The University of Washington's Mary Lidstrom and David Kaplan are among the 84 new members and 21 foreign associates from 14 countries just announced by National Academy of Sciences. Members are named for their distinguished and continuing achievements in original research, according to the academy.
Lidstrom is vice provost for research and a professor of chemical engineering and microbiology. Her research focuses on developing environmentally friendly and economically viable alternatives to chemical fuels. Lidstrom was elected to the Washington State Academy of Sciences in 2011. She also is a fellow of the American Academy of Microbiology and the American Association for the Advancement of Science. Lidstrom has been at the UW twice, from 1978 to 1985 and again since 1996. She received her bachelor's in microbiology from Oregon State University and her master's and doctorate in bacteriology from the University of Wisconsin.

Department of Energy Awards More Than $145 Million for Advanced Solar TechnologiesSep 14, 2011 at 2:59pm
Energy Secretary Steven Chu today announced more than $145 million for projects to help shape the next generation of solar energy technologies and ensure that the United States remains a leader in this global market. Sixty-nine projects in 24 states will accelerate research and development to increase efficiency, lower costs, and advance cutting-edge technologies. Funded through DOE's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, the projects will also improve materials, manufacturing processes, and supply chains for a wide range of photovoltaic (PV) solar cells and components of solar energy systems. Some of these investments also support efforts that will shorten the overall timeline from prototype to production and streamline building codes, zoning laws, permitting rules, and business processes for installing solar energy systems.
Two faculty received awards: Hugh Hillhouse got the only award that went to Washington State and Scott Dunham is funded via the award to Solar World (in Oregon).

Introducing Dave Eaton, Interim Vice Provost for ResearchOct 11, 2010 at 7:48am
I'm delighted but humbled, to step into the role of Interim Vice Provost for Research of this great University. In spite of the relatively recent turn down in the national and state economies, the research enterprise at the University of Washington remains as vibrant as ever. Leading this remarkable organization is truly an honor.
Although there are many challenges we face, I am comforted by the fact that I will still be reporting to the same 'bosses' I've had for the past five years in my role as Associate Vice Provost for Research. Interim Provost Mary Lidstrom, and Interim President Phyllis Wise have, and will continue to provide, steady leadership and vision for this University. Most importantly, I know that the dedicated staff in HSD, ORIS, OSP and OR-Central will continue their tireless efforts to provide outstanding service to our stakeholders, while at the same time ensuring full compliance with federal and state regulations.
The research productivity of our faculty, staff, and students continues to be nothing short of amazing - this is the 'bright light' in an otherwise dim economic climate. The UW recently exceeded $325 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA 'Stimulus') funding from federal resources, placing us at or near the top of all research institutions nation-wide (see ARRA side bar). This is in addition to the over $1 billion in annual grants and contracts our faculty have received.
The recent UW Economic Impact Report shows how important the UW research enterprise is to the State of Washington. For every dollar of state investment in the UW, we have returned over $22 to the state economy! Much of that impressive return on investment is the result of the $1.3 billion in research grants and contracts brought into the State, as well as the intellectual stimulus and well trained graduates that attract new businesses with high paying jobs.
Finally, the research enterprise is an integral part of the education mission of the UW. I am committed to ensuring that the Office of Research does all that we can so that our students (undergraduate, graduate, and professional) have every opportunity to learn from, and contribute to "discovery," the hallmark of our research endeavor. True to our motto, "DISCOVERY is at the heart of the university."

WA State Life Sciences Discovery Fund awards health research program grantsApr 9, 2010 at 7:36am
For Immediate Release
Media contact: Alden Jones
Tel: 206-732-6770
The programs will utilize diverse approaches to enhance the diagnosis and treatment of cancer and other major diseases.
One program, led by Stephen Friend of Sage Bionetworks, will use powerful computational tools to create better models of complex biological systems and identify molecular pathways that can be targeted to develop safer and more effective drugs and diagnostic tests.
A second program, headed by Thomas Matula at the University of Washington, will combine ultrasound technologies with cutting-edge molecular medicine approaches to more accurately image tumors and enhance drug delivery to diseased tissues.
The third program, directed by Peggy Porter of the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, will establish a multi-institutional system for collecting and distributing the biological specimens required to advance cancer research, diagnosis, and therapy.
According to LSDF executive director Lee Huntsman, each award is anticipated to yield great returns on LSDF's investment. "These world-class teams will create critical information, material, and technological resources that are expected to provide competitive advantages to Washington's researchers and companies and, ultimately, accelerate the development of new diagnostics and therapeutics for serious health conditions." Huntsman also noted that LSDF support will further advance Washington's leadership positions in computational research, systems biology, and ultrasound.
The LSDF board of trustees selected the awardees from among 19 proposals that were evaluated by national experts convened by the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In a highly competitive two-phase process, proposals were rated on scientific merit and the potential to improve health and health care in Washington and provide statewide economic benefit.
Funding for these awards comes from Washington's allocation of bonus payments under the Master Tobacco Settlement. The awards are subject to finalization of LSDF's budget for 2010 and the terms and conditions of a grant agreement negotiated between the recipient institutions and LSDF.
The Life Sciences Discovery Fund, a Washington state agency established in May 2005, makes grant investments in innovative life sciences research to benefit Washington and its citizens.
Life Sciences Discovery Fund 2009 Health Research Program Grants
Stephen Friend, Sage Bionetworks - $4,999,996
Program Title: Sage Integrative Bionetwork Community: Scalable Resource for the State of Washington
Program Focus: To more accurately and comprehensively model biological systems through their network of interactions to develop safer and more effective drugs and diagnostic tests.
Human disease frequently causes complex changes in biological systems and molecular pathways, and, consequently, is often not treatable with individual drugs that target a single step in a pathway. Sage Bionetworks is a new nonprofit medical research organization that is developing a novel approach to biological and drug development research. Sage's approach uses powerful computational tools to create holistic models of biological systems that map interactions among the multiple pathways that can influence disease severity, drug efficacy, and drug safety. Sage will create the "Sage Commons" for open-access research on systems biology and network models and for the application of this research to biological problems and human disease. LSDF will fund two facets of the Commons: 1) the development and implementation of a computing infrastructure that will enable scalable delivery of network data models and analyses to collaborators, and 2) the creation of the Washington Partners Program, which will actively engage Washington's academic and biotechnology communities in next-generation systems biology research. By accelerating the identification of pathways that can be targeted to develop better drugs or diagnostic tests, the Sage Commons will provide Washington biotechnology companies with competitive advantages in drug and diagnostic development, help launch new companies and create jobs, and retain some of the world's best computational biologists in Washington.
Thomas Matula, University of Washington - $4,999,999
Program Title: Molecular Imaging and Therapy Using Ultrasound
Program Focus: To develop, translate, and commercialize new ultrasound techniques for molecular imaging and therapy.
Ultrasound is one of the leading medical diagnostic tools in the world due to its high portability and low cost. More ultrasound procedures are performed than any other type of imaging, including X-rays, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The University of Washington (UW) and Washington companies are established leaders in biomedical ultrasound research, development, and commercialization. Ultrasound has traditionally been used for visualizing anatomical structures. However, combining ultrasound technologies with advanced molecular approaches could potentially revolutionize disease diagnosis and treatment by allowing clinicians to target specific molecules in tissues for more precise imaging as well as for delivery of drugs. The program team will create a center focused on researching, translating, and commercializing new ultrasound techniques for molecular imaging and therapy. The ultrasound-based Washington Molecular Imaging and Therapy Center will capitalize on the UW's existing expertise and initiatives as well as recruit new faculty and support novel research projects. Partnerships with clinicians, industry, and venture capitalists are anticipated to accelerate clinical translation and commercialization.
Peggy Porter, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center - $4,995,711
Program Title: Consortium Biospecimen Program (CBP)
Program Focus: To facilitate cancer treatment through comprehensive biological specimen collection and distribution.
Development of molecular tests for early diagnosis of cancer and other diseases, as well as tests that enable treatments to be tailored to a patient's condition and new therapeutic technologies, are critically dependent on blood and tissue samples collected from patients and healthy individuals with their consent. To catalyze the development of new diagnostic tests and drugs, the investigators will develop an information-rich biospecimen collection and distribution system that links regional biomedical investigators with biological specimens. A cross-institution informatics platform will be developed, as well as standardized practices for materials transfer and intellectual property management. This new program will capitalize on the resources and expertise of two programs previously funded by LSDF, the Phase 1 Clinical Trials Program and the Northwest Institute of Genetic Medicine. The CBP represents a collaboration between patients and researchers that provides an opportunity for cancer patients, their families, and friends to contribute to basic science and exciting discoveries that may one day lead to cures. The Consortium includes Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, the University of Washington, and Seattle Children's Hospital and Research Institute.

The Oakland Athletics, also called the A's for short, are part of the Western Division of the MLB's American league. Gold Coast Tickets has the best tickets for Oakland A's tickets this season! They are currently based out of Oakland California, but were founded back in 1901 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. In 1955 the Athletics moved to Kansas City, Missouri and then to Oakland, California in 1969. The A's play at O.Co Coliseum and are the only MLB team left to share their stadium with a NFL team, the Oakland Raiders.
One of the A's major rivalries is against the San Francisco Giants. The two teams play against each other in the Bay Bridge Series, named after the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge which connects the two cities. The rivalry between the two teams is considered friendly, with lower animosity then rivalries between Chicago Cubs-White Sox or the New York Yankees-Mets games.
The A's won their first World Series game against the New York Giants in 1910 during the seventh World Series Champion Game ever played. Since 1910, they have taken home five World Series wins as the Philadelphia A's, and four as the Oakland A's.
In 2003, author Michael Lewis published Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game, based on the Oakland Athletics baseball team and their manager Billy Beane. The book tells the story of how the team took a different approach to the game and focused on a more analytical, and statistic-based way of playing the game. Despite the Oakland A's lack of revenue, their method of sabermetrics helped pull the team to the top. The book and concept of sabermetrics was a huge success and is now used by other MLB teams.
You got a guy at Gold Coast Tickets with the best deals and no service fees for all your MLB ticket needs!

Require a Virtual Office in South Africa?
More and more business owners are beginning to weigh up options to shift operations away from running a physical office.
With office rent going up each year, that is if you can find office space to rent in South Africa which makes acquiring a virtual office a definite and lucrative option.
Virtual Office South Africa
With more and more people shifting their business and reshaping their businesses to cut down on over heads has left the commercial office sector with many vacant commercial buildings and South Africa is actually seeing a decline in rates for physical office space. More and more vacant offices jumps back onto the market these days making finding office space for rent or offices to let a breeze.
Why do people like trading from a virtual office?
Well first and foremost it makes running a business so much more profitable. By being able to cut down on expenses dramatically helps a business to tie up working capital which can be reinvested back into the business which add to a more rapid form of growth within the company.
The fact that South Africa has come a long way in terms of their internet technology makes communication easier as one dedicated broadband line can now be used for pretty much all the necessary office communications. From a fax line, to email, internet browsing and VOIP possibilities makes it possible to even route phone lines.
Phone lines that can be re-routed away from the so called 'office line' to your "virtual Office" which can be anywhere with you making for a complete mobile office solution.
One of the biggest selling points is that Virtual Offices makes it easy for you to run your business on the move. Meaning you are not fixed to a specific street address or land line number which creates confusion among your clientele when you decide to relocate offices.
Young entrepreneurs usually don't have the type of start up capital to both get their new project up and running plus covering expensive office bills during infant stages of their businesses, thus making the virtual office idea a lucrative and smart idea.
More and more businesses are focusing their aim towards running a virtual office and shifting away from the old traditional commercial real estate office buildings.
For more details on obtaining a virtual office or virtual business address within South Africa – Contact the WorkPlace which is one of the most professional and competitive virtual office solution providers within South Africa.
Virtual office solutions has quickly become the preferred office choice for business owners in South Africa

Public Information Office
(301) 457-3691/457-3620 (fax)
The Census Bureau released Census 2000 demographic profile tables with social, economic and housing characteristics for Idaho today. The data — summary tabulations of the responses to census long-form questions — will be used by elected officials and planners to make decisions affecting the quality of life in their communities.
Three new tables are based on answers to the long-form questionnaire, which was delivered to about 1-in-6 — roughly 19 million — households nationwide.
Some of the characteristics included in the new profile tables are:
A fourth table, with profile data from the short form, was released last year. It includes characteristics such as age, sex, race, Hispanic or Latino origin, household relationship and household type and homeownership.
The profiles will be made available for every county, place, metropolitan area, American Indian or Alaska Native area, Hawaiian homeland and congressional district (106th Congress).
To access the profile tables on the FTP server, bona fide media representatives will need two sets of usernames and passwords: one to enter the embargo page, which may be obtained by faxing a request on your organization's letterhead to the Public Information Office at (301) 457-3670, and a second set, which is posted in the embargo area.
For more information about how to order paper copies of the Demographic Profile with 100 percent and sample data, contact the Census Bureau's Customer Services Center, (301) 763-INFO (4636) or e-mail <firstname.lastname@example.com>.

Very disappointed with new formulation July 1, 2013

This had been a great product but with NuNaturals recent reformulation I can no longer say that. It now has a very noticeable bitter taste and more product is required to attain the same degree of sweetness. Also, the liquid has a different viscosity and when the dropper is returned to the bottle the liquid tends to collect a the top of the bottle. It then runs down the outside of the bottle making a mess.
Take a great product, and RUIN it by reformulating it

I have religiously used this alcohol free vanilla stevia for two years. My last order, once it finally came back into stock, was received last week. I was so excited, only to be disgustingly surprised in my first usage, my morning coffee. The formula is thicker than previously (it was like water before, now the viscosity is like glyerin) and it has a god-awful bitter aftertaste, the one reason I fastidiously buy NuNaturals, for the non-bitter non metallic taste. Well, you managed to reformulate and make your stevia taste WORSE than every other brand, NuNaturals. Please, whatever you did, trash it and go back to your old formula, pronto. Or else, I'm just going to buy cheaper Trader Joe's liquid stevia, for convenience. One horrible tasting stevia is just the same as the others, and right now, you all just put yourself at or below the competition in regards to bitterness and taste. I dread my morning coffee now with your product.

This product used to be the gold standard for stevia and now it's below mediocre. Some time in the spring or summer of 2013 NuNaturals lost the formula/extraction rights and this product is now ruined. I had been a customer for many years and I just can't stomach it now. It is incredibly bitter and the color and texture are not even close to palatable. It has a bitter licorice aftertaste that you just can't get rid of no matter how much you try. It doesn't complement any of the foods or drinks I normally used it in before. In fact I'm thinking of patching my leaky gutters with the 3 leftover bottles I have. It's so thick now that I might be able to put the unused liquid stevia to other uses. I mourn the loss of a great sweetener but what also makes this difficult is NuNaturals poor customer service and marginalization to those of us that have contacted them. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT ANYMORE!!!
The product lost it`s sweetness and taste, no point in buying.

I first bought this product in July of 2012 and loved it, now I received a new shipment and was very disappointed to discover nothing about it is the same, aside from the packaging. The potency is much lower then it used to, so one has to use twice as much to get the sweetness and the vanilla flavour. Sadly I won`t be buying it again, NuNaturals should consider reverting to the old formula.

Sole, Yellowfin
Yellowfin Sole is a commercially important Pacific groundfish targeted by U.S. and Canadian trawl vessels. Yellowfin Sole grows at a slow rate and can live for 31 years.
Thanks to successful management measures, they are at high levels of abundance, but changes in oceanic conditions may cause the population to decline in the future.
Bottom trawling for Yellowfin Sole fortunately takes place over sand/mud habitats, which are not as damaged by trawling as other habitats.
