This novel protein purification system opens up the possibilities for the expression, purification and functional analysis of His-tagged proteins expressed in rabbit reticulocyte-based protein expression systems. The MagZ™ Protein Purification System offers a unique advantage over nickel-based systems by specifically purifying polyhistidine-tagged (His-tagged) proteins from rabbit reticulocyte lysate without co-purification of hemoglobin. Thus, the proteins purified using the MagZ™ System could be used for several downstream applications, which are often limited by the presence of hemoglobin in the eluted samples using other immobilized metal ion affinity chromatography (IMAC) methods.

Double Bedsteads and Bed Frames at Archers Sleepcentre
As part of our double bed sale, there is 20% off all double bed frames. Available on a free next day delivery service, the value for money is absolutely superb. Double beds are probably the most versatile - you can have great looking frames for the master bedroom, or choose something slightly less expensive for a room that just has the space for one.
We have a wide collection of double bedsteads for sale, from cheap 4ft 6 metal frames to deluxe leather and wooden sleigh beds. Our UK stores hold an expansive stock of products, meaning they are ready to be dispatched quickly. If you need to kit out a guest bedroom for the weekend then take a look at our express delivery double bed frames.
Our 4ft 6 metal beds are a complete bargain. The sprung beech slats prolong the life of the mattress and the frames themselves are extremely durable. Whilst being cheap and long lasting, they also come in a stylish silver finish. We show several painted metal bed frames as well; if silver isn't what you are looking for then cream or pink might well be. Other than being retailed at a top price, these contemporary beds are quick and easy to assemble.
We show a range of traditional wooden beds that give an authentic look to a bedroom. They come in a variety of finishes including natural wood, antique lacquer and painted. You can even transfer this look to your bedroom furniture as we have a variety of different styles on offer. Pine beds are very popular for their grained look whilst the white frames for sale are also appealing; your choice is dependent on the setting you wish to create in your bedroom.
A high footend or low footend is another variation available on some of our double bed frames. The low foot end transforms the bedroom, enhancing the feeling of space. The high foot end is great if you put your bed up against the wall as it means you can use either end as a headboard.
Our leather double beds spoil you for choice. Cream, white, brown or black, you are sure to find something that takes your fancy. These faux leather beds radiate style and are the ideal centrepiece for your bedroom. It's important to note that they are imported from the Far East and at times we find a particular one-off bargain. So look out for some prices that seem unbelievably low. When these beds are gone, they are gone!
Our double beds for sale, whether it be a cheap double bed frame for a spare room or a luxurious centrepiece for the master bedroom, all offer excellent value for money. Buy Today.

Just call 3 contractors in New Jersey stating you just moved there and need rough estimates. Hard to say how many hours were involved, any surprises, cost of materials.
Sounds high but lots of variables can alter/raise the cost of work. Buyer's remorse after the sale though has fingers pointing both directions on this situation.
Make sure you explain to your 88 father that you must be included in all financial transactions over $500.00 from here on out. Problem solved.

Trump Marina Hotel and Casino Add Ozone To Laundry Procedures
- Details
- Created on Tuesday, 03 July 2007 02:53
- Written by Staff
Atlantic City, NJ – The Trump Marina Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City, NJ has joined in an energy savings and clean energy initiative that is sweeping the nation. The 728-room resort began their upgrade and installation of utility and energy saving equipment in 2006 by switching over to compact fluorescent light bulbs and finished up just two weeks ago with the installation of ozone equipment on all the hotel laundry's washers.
"Ozone is a typical recommendation for laundry savings – it has a quick pay back, less than two years," says Ken Hughes, development engineer at Constellation Energy Services (CES) who oversaw the entire Trump Marina energy conservation project. CES developed a comprehensive energy project for the hotel of which the laundry was just one feature. "We go in and design, engineer and manage a project that can include installing anywhere from three energy conservation measures to 100," says Hughes.
Since the laundry already had a Thermal Engineering water recycling system in place CES focused on energy savings from the reduction of hot water and total water use, improved wash quality and ironer finishing speed and reduced chemical use and wash formula time. The company they contracted to install the EnviroSaver II ozone system as independently operated equipment on each washing machine was Wet-Tech out of Worcester, MA.
"We came at it from two angles," says Jack Reiff, President. "We lowered the hot water tank thermostat by 20 degrees and then started using less hot water in the wash by 70 percent."
As far as chemicals go, Reiff explains that ozone helps reduce chemical use by oxidizing the alkaline chemicals, which are then kept active for longer periods of time. In other words, ozone allows you to use fewer chemicals to handle the same amount of laundry. Reiff and his team from Wet-Tech didn't just look at the project from an ozone point of view but rather from an overall good washing procedures as well.
"The laundry's problem was really with their ironers as the linen was backed up because the ironer could not keep up with the washers," says Reiff. Improving the water extraction through the use of ozone (ozone makes the water slicker so that it slides off the material faster) and wash formula changes meant less water retention in the linen which allowed the ironer to accomplish its' job at a higher speed.
"They were running their ironer at 50 feet a minute and now should be running it at 80 feet a minute," says Reiff.
Doreen Macklin, laundry manager at the hotel, acknowledges that their ironer speed has improved and notes other positive changes since the project ended two weeks ago.
"We're using less hot water," she says explaining that where they used to use 160-degree water they now use 140-degree. "We have reduced our chemical usage too." And then of course there's the added bonus that only ozone offers – improved linen quality. "Whatever the oxygenation is in this system our linen now has a different smell – you can't smell the bleach anymore and it looks a little brighter," says Macklin.
The hotel's laundry processes a weekly average of 69,000 to 70,000 pounds weekly with more in the summer when the pool is open. There are 21 laundry and linen attendants, five seasonal summer employees and three washers.
The goods are processed by two 450-pound Washex washers, one 65-pound Washex washer, two standard Maytag washers, one 450-pound Challenge dryer, one 65-pound Cissel dryer, a Jensen flat ironer for large pieces, a CV Sharper Image ironer for small pieces, a Challenge towel folder and a Colmac Mark 11 steam tunnel.

Vanilla is a WikiClone written in REBOL. It is useful for collaboratively working on projects, tracking todo items, managing adresses, and creating Web logs. All page editing takes place in the browser. Vanilla features a simple templating system, a full-featured user and session management system, and an extension architecture for writing simple Web applications in REBOL.
TagSoup is a SAX-compliant parser written in Java that, instead of parsing well-formed or valid XML, parses HTML as it is found in the wild: poor, nasty, and brutish, though quite often far from short. TagSoup is designed for people who have to process this stuff using some semblance of a rational application design. By providing a SAX interface, it allows standard XML tools to be applied to even the worst HTML. TagSoup also includes a command line processor that reads HTML files, and can generate either clean HTML or well-formed XML that is a close approximation to XHTML.
r80v5 is a fast, lightweight HTTP server written in REBOL, supporting the execution of server-side REBOL code embedded in HTML files. It is easily extended by mapping modules to a resource pattern. For example, one module could be called for all *.txt files, but a different module could be used for all *.txt files in the directory 'source/'.
Perthon converts Python source code to human- readable Perl 5.x source code. It makes use of Damian Conway's Parse::RecDescent for parsing, and aims to reimplement the Python language as specified in the Python Reference Manual and BNF grammar. Perthon is similar to Jython (www.jython.org), which reimplements Python on the JVM, except that Perthon works at the source code (not byte code) level. Perthon does the reverse of Bridgekeeper (http://www.crazy-compilers.com/bridgekeeper/), which attempts to solve the (much harder) problem of Perl-to-Python source code machine translation.
Joxa is a Web services tool geared towards providing arbitrary XML-RPC and SOAP-based services. It seeks to provide an easy to use multi-language platform for developing, testing, and deploying Web-based services. In many ways, it tries to provide the ease of use for services that Zope provides for Web applications.
AgileTrack is an agile development planning and iteration tracking tool. It assists in the creation and life-cycle of iterations, projects, stories, tasks, and bugs. It is focused on simplicity and practicality. Its interface is designed to be useful specifically for software developers on small development teams with rapidly-changing priorities and requirements. Its primary interface for developers is geared toward availability, speed, and purpose. It is flexible and minimalistic with respect to the data that is required for records. It is designed to be compatible with agile development methodologies, particularly Extreme Programming.

Native Omahan Neal Duffy will return home when Neon Trees opens the Maroon 5 concert on Sunday. Duffy is a sound engineer for the pop-rock group.
The Utah-based band behind songs such as "Everybody Talks" and "Animal" has employed Duffy, 31, since he joined them at the South by Southwest music festival a few years ago. It's an exciting gig, but it keeps him busy.
"I spend more time with them than I do my family," he said, adding that the band is like family. "And when a band finds their sound engineer, they get really comfortable with them."
Duffy was with the band on its recent tour of Europe, where it played sold-out shows to up to 500 people.
"The European tour was great, aside from myself and the other crew members being stuck in Shannon, Ireland, for a couple days," Duffy said. "All the shows were ... packed to the roof with crazed Neon Trees fans. It was kinda fun to go back to smaller rooms with a more intimate vibe. The energy was amazing."
Neon Trees is now playing with Maroon 5 and almost every show is sold out.
"Huge crowds," Duffy said. "It's pretty different running sound in a club for 2,000 people versus running sound in a huge arena for 15,000 people, I've definitely learned a large amount in a short time."
He's happy to be with Neon Trees, and says their work ethic is "top notch." Duffy is especially proud to work for the band in front of a hometown crowd at the CenturyLink Center.
"I've been waiting so long for an Omaha show," Duffy said. "I'm so happy it sold out."
Duffy will DJ some jams — performing as W.E.R.D. — at House of Loom on Saturday for Dance Dance Vinyl Monster, a pre-party for Sunday night's concert. The event will feature Neon Trees' lead singer, Tyler Glenn, as a guest DJ. There will be a $5 cover.

The Cybermen that appeared in The Wheel in Space had a similar design to the previous versions, they were the same shape and build.

The Cybermen were controlled by the 'Cyber-Planner'
These Cybermen only appeared in the 1968 story The Wheel in Space and were controlled by the Cyber-planner.

All a thermostat does is connect the Red (power) to the White (heating, first stage) when it calls for heat. It is effectively a switch that opens and closes (closed should turn on the furnace). But, keep in mind, these colors are what are marked on the thermostat, and they may have used different colored wires in the cable, so be careful. First thing is to make sure the wires are tight in their connections.
The power on the red is (or should be) around 24vac - enough to spark, but normally not enough to hurt you except under really unusual circumstances. With many of these digital thermostats, removing it leaves the mounting plate and electrical connections on the wall. If you were to take an insulated piece of wire and connect (short) the red to the white, the furnace should come on. If it does, then it is the thermostat. If it does not, then it is the furnace. If you don't feel comfortable doing this, then you need to call in a qualified service man.
If it ends up being the furnace, it could be numerous things, but that's another whole troubleshooting sequence. Your operator manual for the furnace should help there.

BOISE -- On Saturday evening, Boise welcomed the holiday season by lighting the official city Christmas tree. Hundreds of people gathered at Grove Plaza for caroling, food, warm drinks and the official lighting ceremony.
The tree was donated by Lucille Eason of Boise. The Christmas tree is also known as a 'Giving Tree', which has more than 1,000 wish list tags the public can take to fill basic needs and wishes for the Women's and Children's Alliance.
The tree will stay lit until New Year's Day.
At the ceremony, KTVB asked dozens of people one question: "What's your Christmas wish?" Here are some of the answers from kids and adults alike:
"A new RC car."
"A guitar."
"A unicorn."
"To have superpowers. Flying, laser eyes and shape-shifting."
"A BCS Bowl game!" [This was obviously a Bronco fan.]
"For us to all be loved for who we are without fear of being hurt."
"That all the families out there that are separated would be brought together."
"I wish that all of American war men have a safe trip home."
"I hope that our whole family can be together for the holidays."
Mayor Dave Bieter did the official tree lighting countdown. Here is his Christmas wish: "Since we're standing right by it, I'm going to wish that the hole [at 8th and Main] is filled like we plan on having it...I'm going to make that my wish, and I think it's going to make it." He also hoped people would be at home and safe this holiday season.
Watch the video above to see more Christmas wishes.

Thomas MacDonald travels to San Francisco, CA for a quick tour of Smith & Fong, makers of Plyboo, a sustainably manufactured bamboo plywood.
PlybooQuiet is an underlayment system specifically designed to reduce noise in a multi-level residence. PlybooQuiet transforms any living space into a sanctuary of tranquility. Testing at a 60 IIC rating with a drop ceiling, PlybooQuiet will significantly reduce noise between floors solving noise abatement issues in multi-unit environments.
PlybooFit is made from 95% recycled rubber and can be paired with any Smith & Fong Plyboo or Durapalm floor.
Plyboo® bamboo flooring, plywood, and veneers are now available SoyBond™. Soybond, a proprietary manufacturing system, is the designation for Plyboo products made with soy adhesives.
As of summer 2011, the full line of PlybooPure (no urea-formaldehyde) bamboo flooring and bamboo plywood, as well PlybooSport bamboo sport flooring are manufactured as SoyBond.
The Soybond process takes a lot of complications out of manufacturing and in the end uses a formaldehyde free adhesive that's more natural. The end result is naturally formaldehyde free bamboo flooring and plywood, not to mention, yet another innovation for the Plyboo brand.
Plyboo bamboo plyboard and bamboo floors that are Soybond manufactured will have the SoyBond logo shown above.
To learn more, please watch our video about SoyBond.
Plyboo® takes strand technology to the next level by going outside with PlybooDex bamboo decking. This textured and grooved deck has a beveled edge that perfectly fits PlybooDex hidden deck fasteners. PlybooDex is PlybooPure®; it uses a non-urea-formaldehyde resin in its manufacture.
Let Plyboo be your favorite summer destination
Plyboo® now has you covered inside and outside with the formal introduction of PlybooDex strand bamboo decking. The company uses strand technology to manufacture a textred and grooved deck that can withstand the elements. The bamboo deck's beveled edge works perfectly with PlybooDex hidden deck fasteners for a beautiful install. Like all Plyboo products, PlybooDex is made without added urea formaldehyde, and is available PlybooPure.
Deck railing is also available for purchase for a complete look, along with decking blanks (decking pieces without the beveled edge).

Copenhagen If you have been to Copenhagen, you surely stopped at one of the city's most famous spots: the bronze statue of the Little Mermaid. Well, the mermaid has been overshadowed as the city symbol by a new monument: the $3 billion Oresund Bridge, connecting Copenhagen with Malmo, Sweden. Opened in July, the road and rail bridge has influenced building projects at both its ends, including new plans by Marriott and Hilton in Copenhagen.
Denmark's capital, Copenhagen is a city in which modern design shops and galleries coexist with such whimsical historical creations as Tivoli Gardens, an amusement park/botanical garden dating from 1843 and tailor-made for dine-arounds.
Across from Tivoli is the city's most striking new venue: the Copenhagen City Conference Centre, developed and managed by restaurant and catering company Bojesen ApS. Owner Rasmus Bojesen completely restored several floors of the 1920 office building Axelborg. Guests enter through carved bronze doors and descend to the remarkable, remade bank lobby in the center of the building. The room, which seats 400 for a banquet, features oak-paneled walls reaching up to a glass ceiling.
Another unique space has been created from the former basement Safe Department - whose thick doors have been left as a monument - which will hold 400 guests for an exhibition. Six meeting rooms on the first floor hold up to 380 guests theater-style. The venue is ideal for high-end corporate events, says Bojesen, who set standards for the building's renovation intended to match the exceptional quality of the company's service and F&B.
Among the other unique hotels and venues in and around the city:
- Hotel D'Angleterre, the 250-year-old, five-star grand dame of Copenhagen hotels, offers 130 rooms, 18 of which are suites and all of which offer Internet access. Rose and green marble, a carved ceiling, and gold brocade curtains are part of the breathtaking renovation of the Palm Court Ballroom, which holds 320 for dinner.
- The 212-room Hotel Phoenix, dating from 1680, was meticulously restored in 1991 and accommodates meetings of up to 130 people.
- The Radisson SAS Scandinavia and Radisson SAS Royal Hotel offer a pair of top-notch modern meeting options. The 542-room Scandinavia features a casino and meeting space for up to 1,600 guests; the 265-room Royal Hotel has meeting space for up to 300 attendees.
- The Royal Stock Exchange (The Borsen), a city center landmark dating from 1639, offers several rooms for group functions, including the Stock Exchange Hall, with its dark, carved wood; oil paintings; and stained-glass windows.
- Ledreborg Castle, in Lejre, was built by Count Johan Ludvig Holstein in the 18th century and has been the home of the Holstein-Ledreborg family for more than 250 years. Groups can take private tours of the palace and book the Family Hall for banquets.
- Just half an hour west of Copenhagen is Denmark's historic royal city of Roskilde, which offers its own unique venues and hotels, including the elegantly restored, 305-year-old Hotel Prindsen, the oldest hotel in Denmark and part of the Best Western chain. Its historically lovely but technologically advanced ballroom seats 400 people theater-style. The stunning Roskilde Cathedral is a must-see for its many unique chapels and remarkable altar-piece.

Florida added 30 players from 7 different states on Wednesday and Thursday. A breakdown of the Gators' "target zone" is below:
Florida = 18 recruits
Georgia = 6
Mississippi = 2
Michigan = 1
Pennsylvania = 1
Tennessee = 1
Virginia = 1
In-State Signees = 60.0%
Out-Of-State Signees = 40.0%
The Gators had a consensus top five signing class and it ranked #1 in the SEC according to our system. If there's a nit to be picked — and that's all it would be with a class this good — it's that UF landed only two of the top 10 prospects in the Sunshine State. In addition to in-state rival Florida State, Ole Miss, Notre Dame, Southern Cal, Alabama, Clemson, and Ohio State (with ol' pal Urban Meyer) all came into Florida and lured top local talent away. But again, that's pure nitpicking. Nothing more than something to keep an eye on moving forward.

James is a year-round San Diego Lifeguard. San Diego Lifeguards not only perform surf rescue, but also provide law enforcement and marine-fire-fighting functions as the Harbor Patrol on Mission Bay. San Diego Lifeguards also effect technical cliff rescue, and perform inland swift water or flood rescue. James is a member of the Dive Team, which is responsible for underwater search and recovery operations, and is an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT). James is applying the knowledge and experience gained through the Masters Degree in the Educational Technology program to the design of interactive computer-based training for the San Diego Lifeguards and other public safety services.
Based on the patient's chief medical complaint, the EMT will be able to recall proper patient treatment and equipment related to that treatment, as determined by current San Diego County Emergency Medical Service (EMS) Treatment Guidelines.
A card game is well suited to the working conditions of an EMT. Emergency Medical Technicians experience a lot of "down time", this is time when they are not responding to an emergency. Having a game to play will help break up this "down time." A card game is practical for EMT's, because of its portability and ability to be played in the field.
1. 2 to 4 people may play.
2. The dealer deals each player 7 cards. The top card of the deck is then turned over and placed beside the remaining cards.
3. Players try to group Skills and Equipment cards together with appropriate Chief Complaint cards. For example, an "Ensure Airway" Skills card and "Stiff Neck Collar" and "Backboard" Equipment cards can be grouped with an "Unconscious Head Injury" Chief Complaint card because they are part of the appropriate treatment and equipment as set forth by San Diego County EMS.
4. Play begins with the player seated to the left of the dealer and proceeds clockwise. Each player must maintain at least 7 cards in their hand. They may choose one replacement card at a time from either the face up or face down piles of cards.
5. Players earn points by laying appropriately grouped cards down in front of them. The cards in each group are laid down face up. Each group contains 1 Chief Complaint card and a minimum of 2 other cards. A player may also add cards to his own or other player's groups.
6. Challenges: If the treatment rendered or equipment used are wrong, the first person to correctly challenge and state the proper skill and equipment will receive double the point value of the card or cards being laid down. The player who incorrectly stated the skill or equipment has the point value he had stood to gain subtracted from his score. Challenges are decided by county protocols. An unsuccessful challenger loses double the value of the cards.
7. A player who is able to lay down all 7 cards in a single group receives a total of 50 points. Successful challenges are worth 100 points in this case.
8. The play continues until one of the players runs out of cards. The winner is the first player to reach 200 points.
9. It may be necessary to refer to current San Diego County EMS Emergency Medical Technician Treatment Guidelines.
Each card will be either a wild card, the patient's medical chief complaint, a life support skill, or a piece of first aid equipment. The point value assigned to each card is based on the Deck Design and field relevance. The deck is designed so that there is more Equipment cards than Skills cards. This is done so that the game will move quickly and be playable in a short time span. Focus is on lower level learning and memorization of equipment related to appropriate treatments. The Chief Complaint cards are worth the lowest point value because in the field the medical chief complaint is much more obvious than the treatment or the equipment that is necessitated by that treatment. For example, if the player is able to match a "Cardiac Arrest" Chief Complaint card with a "Look, Listen, & Feel (3-5) seconds" Skills card and a "Oropharyngeal Airway" Equipment card they may lay these cards down. Since these cards follow the EMS Protocols, the player will receive eight points.
There are 52 cards in this deck:
The reason for choosing 52 as the number of cards in the deck is because people expect it in traditional types of cards games; i.e. Rummy. The names of the three categories are printed along the outside edge to assist in quick card identification with the point values represented in diagonal corners of each card. The Jokers, not pictured, have the Joker face in the middle of the card and the word Joker in text below the graphic. The Skills and Chief Complaint cards have text, identifying the treatment or medical chief complaint in the center of the card. A scanned-in photo or diagram, and the name of the piece of equipment clearly identifies the Equipment cards, and The EMT Star of Life emblem is found on the back the entire deck of cards.
The need for a game of this type is evident to anyone who must frequently requalify in certain skills or procedures in order to retain employment. In the case of the EMT, not only will not knowing therequisite knowledge get you terminated, it may also cost someone their life. Therefore, I see this card game as a fun and low-stress way to learn the skills and equipment related to treating a particular medical chief complaint as set forth in current EMS Guidelines.

|PAHO's New Collaborative Virtual Space Will Help Enhance Scientific Papers and Proposals
Washington, D.C., January 30, 2008 (PAHO)— The Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) has launched a new Collaborative Virtual Space to help individuals, organizations and groups in the Americas Region submit contributions to technical meetings, congresses and conferences.
The new web-based initiative is linked to the upcoming International AIDS Conference, to be held in Mexico City in August 2008, and seeks to improve the overall quality of submissions for this and other major health events. The site is intended as a "paper clinic" that will allow a greater number of contributions from the Region to be accepted and presented during this and other scientific meetings.
The PAHO Collaborative Virtual Space aims to help authors and presenters prepare abstracts, papers, posters, and presentations through links to selected online writing and research tools and through tutoring by senior PAHO technical experts. It will initially provide direct assistance for the development of papers to be submitted to the Scientific Committee of the Mexico City International AIDS Conference.
Target beneficiaries include Latin American and Caribbean researchers and practitioners who are developing HIV-related research activities in the PAHO Region, as well as Latin American and Caribbean researchers working overseas.
Dr. Rafael Mazin, PAHO's Regional Advisor for HIV/AIDS Prevention and Comprehensive Care, notes that many researchers are unable to share their studies and findings because they may not be sufficiently familiar with procedures for organizing, presenting, and disseminating them.
"Furthermore, they may not succeed in having them accepted at congresses, conferences and technical discussions because of purported 'deficiencies' or 'weaknesses' in the structure and overall organization of their research papers," says Dr. Mazin. "As a result, the Americas Region and the world are deprived of invaluable experiences and findings that could help to reorient programs, initiatives and interventions at all levels."
The new PAHO Collaborative Virtual Space will focus initially on the following areas:
The PAHO Collaborative Virtual Space is an "ongoing endeavor" that will be modified and expanded through the contributions and opinions of users. "Further support will be provided for the development of presentations and posters and for last-minute submissions," notes Dr. Mazin.
For more information on the International AIDS Conference (AIDS 2008), please visit its web site.
The Pan American Health Organization, founded in 1902, works with all the countries of the Americas to improve the health and quality of life of their peoples. It -serves as the Regional Office of the World Health Organization (WHO).

The Unmissables – the top ten debut albums of 2012
It is almost the end of the year so time to start compiling those best of 2012 lists, and to kick things off we thought we 'd take a look at the best debut albums.
There has been an explosion of great new guitar bands this year. From Alabama Shakes in the States through to Sweden's bizarrely monikered Goat, the new breed are playing intelligent, tough but catchy pop songs, often rooted in the past but given a very contemporary spin by mixing and matching musical genres and trends.
Here then is our top ten. In no particular order. They are all available on Spotify. And you can hear a selection of the tracks on our playlist under the image.
Any we have missed?
The Sufis
Nashville-based band who have swallowed rhe Syd Barrett songbook whole. they do it so well too and if you love early Floyd you'll adore this.

Cellar/Tasting Notes "Relatively strong reduction hides all but the spice and wood toast notes. By contrast there is good volume and mid-palate concentration to the well-delineated, intense and seductively textured flavors that are supported by firm and reasonably refined tannins on the dusty and moderately austere..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Soft and generous fruit, its tannins enveloped by a warm and ripe juicy fruit layer. The wine is already delicious, showing sweet tannins and a subtle touch of wood."
Cellar/Tasting Notes The 2011 Pinot Noir Two Brothers, tasted from barrel, is hugely promising. There is a level of purity in the fruit that is simply beautiful. The style is a bit exuberant for the year, but all the elements are very much in balance. A blast of sweet red cherries, dried flowers and sweet spices flow..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2009 Brunello di Montalcino is a standout expression with long and polished notes of dried fruit and tobacco presented in a smooth and seamless fashion. It shows good structure and balance but an even prettier nose with ethereal balsam herbs, tar, licorice and pressed violets that emerge as..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Here too there is moderate toasty influence on the notably ripe, indeed almost liqueur-like aromas of red and black raspberry, cassis, plum and soft spice notes. There is a textured mouth feel to the supple, round and delicious middle weight flavors that possess a bit more verve before culminating..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "This offers quite an interesting, and completely different, nose as it's quite floral with wild raspberry, currant and wet stone nuances combining with refined, detailed and very pinot flavors. There is an excellent depth, length and impeccable balance to the sappy and energetic finish. A really..
Cellar/Tasting Notes Although it begins with austerity, its acidity and tannins dominant, the palate opens beyond its youthfulness after a few moments. It becomes dark and powerful, certainly still dryly tannic, but the fruit is generous, and the final taste is of beautiful, ripe fruits.
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2008 Barbaresco Riserva Montefico hits the palate with a blast of fruit intermingled with copious acidity and pure structure. Montefico shares a boundary with Ovello, and shows many of the structural elements typically associated with that side, but with more depth in its fruit, probably..
Cellar/Tasting Notes "The 2011 Merlot is a little reticent today. Cloves, dark cherries, plums, mint and cloves all take shape in the glass in a medium-bodied wine that is built for near-term enjoyment. There is a lot to like here, but I expect the 2011 to offer its best drinking earlier rather than later."
Cellar/Tasting Notes "Since 2002, this great terroir has been fully exploited by the dynamic duo of Nicolas Thienpont and Stephane Derenoncourt. Following the monumental 2005,a legend in the making, it is hard to get excited about the 2006, even though it is an outstanding effort. While more austere and not as..

Patapum Baby Carrier
" This was a gift and it was by far the most valuable thing I was ever given for my son. I still use this carrier today (although I have modified it to have a longer body for his nearly 4 year old self). We used this carrier daily for at least two years when my son was a baby. It goes on so easily, and I can get him off while asleep and remain asleep. None of the buckles..." --Pumpkin_Pie
Patapum Toddler Carrier
" We got this carrier because at 6 months my daughter was 22 pounds, and we knew we would want to carry her past the weight limits of some of the other carriers. I used this carrier until she got to be tall enough to hit the back of my knees with her feet, which was at around 3.5 years old. I could still carry her in it at this point, but it would be kind of funny. Both..." --AdinaL

Minnesota Wild forward Zach Parise was named captain of Team USA for the Sochi Olympics, the team announced Friday.
The U.S. named Los Angeles Kings right wing Dustin Brown and Wild defenseman Ryan Suter alternate captains.
Parise, a 29-year-old Minneapolis native, tied for the U.S. scoring lead at the 2010 Olympics in Vancouver with eight points. He scored the game-tying goal with 24.5 seconds left in regulation of the gold-medal contest against Canada to force overtime.
Parise played for gold-medal teams at the World Under-18 Championship in 2002 and the World Junior Championship in 2004.
This season, Parise has 34 points in 41 games while battling injuries.
Parise is the third different U.S. captain since the NHL starting using players in the Olympics. Chris Chelios captained the team three times from 1998 to 2006 and Jamie Lagenbrunner was captain in 2010.
