Amazing Tailgate Appetizer Recipe – Texas Cheese Dip
I was looking through my grandmother's recipes and I found one for a spicy sounding cheese dip named Texas Cheese Dip. It was cut out from a magazine but I can't tell which one so there is my disclaimer that I did not make this up.

Niagara Gazette
Niagara Gazette — The new medical director of Niagara Falls Memorial Primary Care Center, is working in a job she believes she was born to do.
Dr. Amarpreet Grewal Bath has always wanted to be a doctor. "I come from a medical family," she said, noting that her father is a doctor of pain management, and her brother is also a doctor. "There's really nothing else I wanted to do."
Born in London, raised in California, Bath says she knew she wanted to go into family medicine after rotating through the different hospital departments when she did her residency. "I found I really connected well with the patients," she said.
After working at the Cleveland Clinic and a U.S. military airbase in San Diego, she moved to the Niagara region after her marriage to NFMMC radiologist, Dr. Shelly Bath. The 2-year-old clinic she now heads, located in the offices on the top floors of the parking ramp, was one of four created by the hospital to meet the need for family care in the region.
"We created the clinics to accomodate the public health emergency that occurred when Dr. Metha's office was closed," explained hospital spokesperson Patrick Bradley, recalling the several thousand patients who were left without a medical provider when the former Falls physician, Pravin Mehta, was arrested and accused of being at the center of a massive illegal prescription drug distribution operation. The hospital has opened four family care offices since then, including the clinic at the 10th Street hospital.
"This is a medically underserved community," Bradley said. "But, we've gone from zero primary care facilities to four." The hospital has also opened family care facilities in Grand Island, Wheatfield and North Tonawanda.
The clinics provide those in the region the opportunity to build a relationship with a doctor, which helps patients to take care of small medical problems before they grow into larger problems and reduced expensive emergency room visits and hospital stays, according to the doctor.
"I think preventative care is absolutely paramount," Bath said. "I like to encourage routine annual visits and preventative care such as mammograms, colonoscopies and annual blood work and vaccinations."
Patients can have all their medical needs met at the clinic, from physical to psychological, including mental health issues such as depression and anxiety, the doctor said.
Bath is determined that patients who come to her clinic feel welcomed and listened to. "I want to make myself more available to these patients," she said. "They can have all their health care needs met by a physician who really cares about them.

The IRS is cautioning consumers to be diligent when donating to organizations and charities to help the victims of the recent typhoon in the Philippines.
Following major disasters, it is common for scam artists to impersonate charities to get money or private information from well-intentioned taxpayers. Such fraudulent schemes may involve contact by telephone, social media, email or in-person solicitations.
The IRS is warning people to take the following steps before donating to avoid being scammed:
* Donate to recognized charities.
* Be wary of charities with names that are similar to familiar or nationally known organizations. Some phony charities use names or websites that sound or look like those of respected, legitimate organizations. The IRS website at IRS.gov has a search feature, Exempt Organizations Select Check, through which people may find legitimate, qualified charities; donations to these charities may be tax-deductible. Legitimate charities may also be found on the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) website at fema.gov.
* Don't give out personal financial information -- such as Social Security numbers or credit card and bank account numbers and passwords -- to anyone who solicits a contribution from you. Scam artists may use this information to steal your identity and money.
* Don't give or send cash. For security and tax record purposes, contribute by check or credit card or another way that provides documentation of the gift.
Taxpayers suspecting disaster-related frauds should visit IRS.gov and search for the keywords "Report Phishing."

Mozart's La Clemenza di Tito
Torrington, CT – On Saturday, December 1, at 1pm, The Met: Live in HD series continues at the Warner's Nancy Marine Studio Theatre with Mozart's La Clemenza di Tito.
The virtuosic Elîna Garanèa sings Sesto in Mozart's drama set in ancient Rome. Giuseppe Filianoti is the noble Tito and Barbara Frittoli is Vitellia, in this handsome revival of one of the composer's final masterpieces. Harry Bicket conducts.
Elina Garanca, "sleek and beautiful, with a lustrous voice" (New York Post) is "a splendid interpreter" of Sesto; "she produces luminous sounds that seem to linger suspended in the air like shining pearls." (AP)
As Tito, Giuseppe Filianoti "soared to virile, commanding form," and Barbara Frittoli "burned up the stage as the scheming Vitellia" (New York Post). This "elegant" production (AP) is "more than the sum of its excellent parts" (New York Post).
A pre broadcast lecture by Nunzio DeFilippis will begin at 11am for all interested ticket holders.
Tickets for this event are $25, $23 for seniors and students and $15 for children 13 & under. To purchase tickets you can call the Warner box office at 860-489-7180 or go online to www.warnertheatre.org/metopera.htm.

Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Dunlop D606 dual sport rear tire I like the 606 for performance and wear. I have tried the Pirelli MT21 rear, but I didn't think it wore as well as the 606. Brad Wootton - January 08, 2010 (Vista, CA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Dunlop D606 dual sport rear tire This is awesome. The moment it was mounted on my DR650 I felt the height adjustment and it feels like higher than the old Pirelli. I love the handling and it really needs about 100 more miles to break in and once you done with that you can enjoy the ride conquering almost any terrain. Oh! the price was right too. Ride hard or stay at home. Dissanayake - April 15, 2010 (arlington, VA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Dunlop-D606 Truly an off road tire with the benefit of highway usage. I have had 4 on my Aprilia RXV 550. Hooks up great in the dirt and has some, but minimal vibration on asphalt. I get about 1K miles simply because I burn them off. It's the only way to go on a true dual sport. Scott - April 16, 2010 (Weston, WV) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Aggressive Dual Sport Rear Tire I am on my second D606 rear tire I ride about 50/50 hard top, dirt seasonal roads & trails. I got 2000 miles out of last one should get 1500-2000 miles from this tire I ride a xr650l my son has one on a DR350, very good traction in dirt & mud handles well on pavement. We run the D606 front also, 22psi in both don't run anymore as the rear will feel like it wants to kick out in corners on pavement. Overall I don't think you can beat this tire for an aggressive dual sport tire. J F - May 04, 2010 (bath, NY) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Oops! I ordered the wrong size Stock size for my XT225 was 120/80 R18 and I ordered 120/90 R18. I had it mounted and dealer said it seemed large. I took it home on and tried it out. It was rubbing but didn't seem bad. Rode the bike to work at highway speeds and destroyed the tire. Wish they had this in a smaller size but they didn't so I ended up getting a Kenda K760 in the RIGHT size as a replacement! Rick K - July 07, 2010 (Cedar Crest, NM) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Dunlop 606 Dual Sport Tire I have tried all different brands of dual sport tires, nothing is better than the Dunlop 606. Great traction, durability and tread pattern. Eric N - August 03, 2010 (Bayville, NJ) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit 606 dunlap on Dr650 As usual fast delivery service. This is the 2nd 606 on the rear of a DR 650 Suzuki. This tire works well in the dirt and not bad on the street, corners ok . This is a tough tire as the lugs were not torn off with a lot of spinning. Lasted about 3K miles; 60/40 dirt/street at 20 Psi. Replaced with another 606. Would not recommend for mostly street riding if you corner hard. Stu H - August 31, 2010 (etna ca, CA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Great tire, Great price It is like having a different bike. 10 miles into the ride these tires transformed my DRZ400S into a true off road bike. No more slipping and sliding on the crappy factory tires. These are great! The price was 1/2 that of the local Suzuki dealer for the same tire! Brian A - August 31, 2010 (Johnstown, CO) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Aggressive This sure is a nice tire. I bought the 120/90-18 for the front of my Dad's TW200. The tire is very aggressive looking. It mounted up with some effort, but was very doable. I love the tread pattern. Bryan - September 03, 2010 (Ephrata, WA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit KLR Rider Tire is awesome off road, has aggressive traction, and work well on the road. Great all around rear tire especially for the KLR650. Brent - September 22, 2010 (Richmond, VA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Fantastic tire Great tire. Superior to the Kenda tires they replaced. Very quiet (relatively speaking) on the highway. Highly recommend them. Matt - October 26, 2010 (Parsons, KS) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Dunlop 606 Rear Tire Excellent dual sport tire for Baja - rode plenty of dirt and street and tire performed extremely well. Andrea - November 29, 2010 (san diego, CA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Dunlop D606 120/90-18 Dual Sport Rear Tire Very aggressive tread, great traction on all off road surfaces, a bit too aggressive for spirited on road performance but manageable. Kevin - November 30, 2010 (Monroe, CT) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Rubicon Trail Tested Back in 2005, I purchased 5 sets of 606's for my Dual Sported 01 XR400 after wearing out a couple of sets of MT 21's. No comparison!! The Dunlops are awesome dirt/street tires. I have run this bike through the Rubicon and all over the central sierra and the 606's never give it up. Avg. mileage is 3000 on the rear and 4000 on the front. My street time is usually spent with buds on BMW RT's and some sport bikes. Unless they're really going after it, Nobody has to wait for me!! Just buy them and be happy!! DAN - January 28, 2011 (Placerville, CA) Fit Finish Durability Features Cost Benefit Dunlop 606 dual sport tires. I've been riding dual sport bikes from 1986 till now. I tried many brands of dual sport tires. I recommend the Dunlop 606's for street and trail. Very predictable on the road and wear very well. They also hook up good on dirt. I run about 18lbs air for best handling on or off the road.

The members of the Russell County Fiscal Court met Monday in a special called meeting to address the construction of a new jail.
Mike Carroll and Eric Chambers of Brandstetter and Carroll told the magistrates that the over 14,000 square foot plan is ready to go to officials in Frankfort for preliminary approval.
Carroll said they have made adjustments to the plans to maximize the effectiveness of manpower by allowing fewer people to observe more prisoners.
Based on a "site and foundation permit" Carroll said the county could be advertising for construction bids as early as next month, 30 to 60 days in advance of the Kentucky Department of Corrections' final approval of the designs.
County Judge-Executive Mickey Garner had said at a previous meeting that having the project "shovel ready" in June would be necessary for the county to receive any possible federal economic stimulus grants or loans.
Such funding, if ever offered, could reduce the county's expense for constructing the 80+ bed facility.
The court approved taking the plans before the corrections' facilities review board.
The court also approved proposals from two vendors to mow county road right-of ways. The bids were $40 per road mile of mowing 6-8 feet along each side of roads.
Two part-time seasonal positions and one full-time position at the road department were approved by the board and job vacancy ads were approved in advance of the next court meeting.

Brunello's magnificent 1999s
I will not be publishing my full tasting notes until next month when the wines are finally released but I have to tell you that a recent big horizontal of the 1999s is the single most exciting tasting of Brunello di Montalcino I have ever experienced. Ultra-purist Italophiles shoot me down if you will, but I have always been a bit agnostic about Brunello. It's been easy to admire, not so easy to enjoy, in my humble experience. But those 1999s are, as one of Little Britain's more florid characters says so often, gorgeous . There are, as ever, some over-the-top, dead fruit wines but the best of them have a completely seductive...

A couple of weeks after shadowing Tripp Keber, I hop in the car with Pete O'Neil, an independent businessman looking to get into Washington state's pot game. O'Neil once ran a comedy club in Fort Lauderdale and a high-end pet-grooming salon in Manhattan. Now he's starting C & C Cannabis Company, a retail pot enterprise – the name's a nod to Cheech and Chong.
Even though the state isn't accepting license applications for another two weeks, O'Neil has already leased two storefronts outside Seattle. The state limits license holders to no more than three shops, to prevent market consolidation by a few big-money players. "They tell me I'm crazy to try for a license in the city, but I'm tempted to go for it," he says.
Even though Seattle supported more than 100 MMJ dispensaries in 2012, the liquor control board is licensing only 21 adult-use pot shops in Seattle – about the same number of state-run liquor stores that served the city prior to 2012, when the state got out of the booze business. So those licenses are looked upon as 21 golden tickets. But even Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes has complained about the limit. "The demand is greater than 21 stores can handle," he said recently. "The idea behind legalization is to bring this into the regulated sphere. To do that we need to be able to tell consumers, 'We have a legal supply, that's where you should go.'"
To enter the license lottery, retail applicants had to show the liquor control board a commitment for a lease by December 20th. In the weeks prior, the streets of Seattle were crawling with pot entrepreneurs seeking rentable space. A storefront isn't legal unless it's at least 1,000 feet from a school or day care center. It's a gambler's roll. If you don't win a license, you could be stuck with lease payments and no store.
O'Neil has been tipped to an existing MMJ dispensary in north Seattle that was regulation-compliant. "He's asking $100,000," O'Neil tells me. "But why would a dispensary owner sell out now?"
Good question. The rest of the country may think that Washington state is relaxing its marijuana laws. In fact, it's tightening them. Washington never brought its MMJ industry under regulatory control like Colorado did. There's no registry, no security laws and no tax requirements. "The MMJ folks are having to go through the growing pains that Colorado already went through," says Alison Holcomb, criminal-justice director at the ACLU of Washington and author of Initiative 502, the ballot measure that cleared the way for legal pot in 2012. "Right now many of them have a business model that doesn't involve meeting regulatory requirements or, for some, even paying taxes. That provides a really nice profit margin. Now they're entering a system where competitors may have more business savvy, and they may not be as profitable."
Because the state views dispensary owners with some suspicion, the liquor control board isn't giving them first option on adult-use licenses. But, of course, even this is subject to uncertainty. In an interview last month, Washington State Liquor Control Board Chair Sharon Foster tells me that eight months of conversations with medical users had softened her stance. "I'm not nearly as cynical as I was" about abuses within the MMJ industry, she says. "I think research is going to prove the great importance of this little plant. We have to carve a place for that within the system." The state legislature, she says, may solve the issue later this year by passing a new law for MMJ patients. That law could allow medical users – who may need greater volumes and potency – special privileges within the adult-use industry.
There's no guarantee that existing dispensaries will survive, though, and some owners are selling out while the selling's good. At the north Seattle dispensary, the owner greets Pete O'Neil warmly.
"So you're looking for a 502, huh?" he says. O'Neil scopes the space. Upstairs is a one-room dispensary; downstairs are a handful of spindly pot plants.
"I'm asking $175,000," the owner says.
O'Neil pokers his expression. The price buys neither the building nor the land, only the right to take over a $2,800 monthly lease. "The listing said $100,000," says O'Neil.
The owner nods. "The guy down the road just sold his MMJ for $125,000. He's not even zoned 502 legal. So I figured . . ."
O'Neil passes on the deal. A few weeks later, he leases a storefront two blocks farther south, paying three times the market price to beat out two other marijuana concerns bidding on the space.
Real estate and regulations aren't the only worries for an entrepreneur like O'Neil. The price of pot will dictate profits. Top-quality weed currently retails for $250 to $300 an ounce. Over the long term, though, "that could drop by as much as 80 percent prior to taxation" if legalization takes hold, says Rob MacCoun, a professor at the Goldman School of Public Policy at UC Berkeley who studies marijuana laws and markets.
That's good for ending the black market, but low pot prices contain their own sets of worries, said marijuana-taxation expert Pat Oglesby, former chief counsel to the U.S. Senate Committee on Finance. "If it becomes producible at $20 a pound [less than $1.25 an ounce]," said Oglesby, "and you don't tax it pretty heavily, then you have to worry about the leakage rate [i.e., smuggling across state lines] and the political reaction of the soccer moms."
Cheap pot is bad for state coffers, too. Washington state's pot scheme contains the highest marijuana taxes ever submitted to the voting public. The state takes a 25 percent bite at each level of its three-tiered system, and has estimated it may rake in some $400 million a year.
The challenge state policymakers face is to facilitate what Kleiman calls "the Goldilocks price": a tax-influenced number that's low enough to starve the black market but high enough to discourage a spike in consumption. You don't have to beat the street price, just come close. "Most people want to abide by the law," says Holcomb. "If you give them a chance not to be a criminal, they won't be a criminal."
There's one other factor: Washington is capping its initial weed crop at 2 million square feet. That's 45 acres, only enough marijuana to satisfy about one-quarter of estimated statewide demand. (The idea is to avoid a surplus, which might encourage out-of-state smuggling.) Retailers can't import from out of state, so when the weed's gone, it's gone. Which means prices won't be coming down anytime soon.
The gains made in Colorado and Washington tend to obscure the dismal reality still playing out in many other states. In 2012, there were 749,825 marijuana arrests in America. We're not talking about dealers moving weight. In New York and Texas, the states with the most marijuana arrests, 97 percent of pot arrests in 2010 were for simple possession. Over the past decade, as police departments around the country adopted New York City's data-driven CompStat policing model, pot arrests based on stop-and-frisks became an easy way for precincts to pad their numbers. Queens College sociology professor Harry Levine brought the problem to light in 2009 when he discovered that during the previous year the NYPD made more pot arrests in 12 months than during 18 years under Michael Bloomberg's three mayoral predecessors. In an interview in The New Inquiry last year, Levine described the nation's arrest overreach as a scandal on the order of Love Canal and the Ford Pinto, "horrific situations, harming many people, that go on for years before being revealed."
Ezekiel Edwards, director of the ACLU Criminal Law Reform Project, spent nearly a year mining data on the racial makeup of marijuana arrests. The ACLU found that black people were 3.7 times more likely to be arrested for marijuana possession than white people. This at a time when white and black marijuana usage rates are virtually identical, about 12 to 14 percent.
That racial disparity has grown worse with time. Over the past decade, the white arrest rate for marijuana possession held steady, around 192 arrests per 100,000 white people. Meanwhile, the black arrest rate skyrocketed. In 2001, it stood at 537 arrests per 100,000 black people. By 2010, it had climbed to 716.
Going into the project, Edwards suspected the numbers might be bad. But not this bad. "We knew about racial disparities in New York," he tells me. "We didn't expect to find racial disparities everywhere, urban and rural, 49 of the 50 states." (Only Hawaii had a nearly even black-white arrest rate.) The war on marijuana, Edwards says, "has been a war on people of color."
To understand what those numbers mean on the ground, you only have to visit the American marijuana gulag that is the state of Louisiana. New Orleans, of course, famously welcomes and celebrates bacchanalian debauchery. But Louisiana lawmakers take a perverse pride in maintaining some of the harshest marijuana laws in the country. One joint can get you six months in the parish prison. Second offense: up to five years. Third: up to 20.
Bernard Noble is one of many caught in the trap. Noble, a 47-year-old truck driver, relocated his family from New Orleans to Kansas City after losing his house to Hurricane Katrina in 2005. In 2010, he returned to the Big Easy to visit his father. On October 27th, two cops spotted Noble riding a bicycle down South Miro Street. They ordered Noble to stop, and frisked him. They found a small bag containing less than three grams of marijuana.
An Orleans Parish jury convicted Noble of marijuana possession. Because he had prior felony possession convictions, Louisiana law called for a mandatory minimum sentence of 13 and a third years. "It doesn't matter how much or how little marijuana is involved," Donna Weidenhaft, Noble's public defender, tells me. "In Louisiana you can get twice as much prison time for marijuana possession as sexual battery."
But 13 years for three grams? That seemed insane. Moved by Noble's record as a providing father, the sentencing judge took pity and handed down only five years in prison. Only.
Outraged by the nickel, Orleans Parish DA Leon Cannizzaro Jr. appealed the ruling. Cannizzaro wanted the full 13 years. And after three appeals, he got it. Earlier this year the Louisiana State Supreme Court declared that a judge could waver from mandatory minimums only in exceptional cases. And Bernard Noble, the court ruled, was entirely unexceptional. "You might think this is a horror story, but not in Louisiana," says Gary Wainwright, a defense lawyer with two decades of experience in the Orleans Parish courthouse. "We've had people receive sentences of 'natural life' for marijuana here."
Louisiana imprisons more of its residents, per capita, than any other state. In many parts of the state, the parish (county) prison is the largest single employer. "You can't run a prison without inmates," says Wainwright, and the easiest way to keep the jails full is to arrest black men for pot possession.

Continuing upheavals in the storage marketplace in 2007 led to a surge in innovative storage technology, resulting in vendors submitting a record number of new storage-related products -- more than 200 -- to our annual Products of the Year competition.
As such, it was harder than ever for the judges and editors of SearchStorage.com and Storage magazine to decide this year's winners in the five storage product categories: storage management, backup and disaster recovery software, storage networking, disk and disk subsystems, and backup hardware.
The finalists in this year's storage Products of the Year competition are listed below, by category. The winners will be announced Feb. 5.

Suffolk County correction officers confiscated drugs from inside an inmate this week, which he tried to smuggle in as he arrived to begin his sentence.
Christopher Reale, a 32-year-old East Hampton man, was sentenced in Suffolk County Court in Riverhead on Tuesday to one year in the county jail on a felony charge of driving while ability impaired by drugs, according to court records.
When he entered the jail, officers found him in possession of suboxone strips and methadone pills, the county sheriffs office said in a statement on Friday.
Investigator Michael Hastings of the Sheriff's Internal Security Unit interviewed Reale resulting in an admission, search and recovery of the illegal drugs, the sheriffs office said. "Reale had smuggled them into the facility inside a body cavity using a balloon and fishing line to later retrieve the contraband," the statement continued.
Reale now faces additional charges of promoting prison contraband in the first-degree, a felony, and two counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the seventh-degree, which is a misdemeanor.
Sheriff Vincent F. DeMarco said, "The diligence of our Investigators and Correction Officers prevents dangerous contraband from being dispersed within our facilities."
Reale was arrested after a car accident in Amagansett on May 4. He was charged with felony DWAI due to two prior convictions in the past 10 years, one of which was on Jan. 24, police said at the time. His 2002 Toyota struck multiple trees along Montauk Highway, near Mitchell Dunes Lane.
He was held without bail and indicted in Suffolk County Criminal Court on May 11. He was released on $1,250 bail on May 17, and remained free on bail until his sentencing on Tuesday, during which time he received pre-sentencing drug treatment, court records indicate. He had pleaded guilty on Oct. 9.

"Doesn't anybody around here talk to anybody else?"
That quote from a movie I saw once perfectly describes the atmosphere that apparently existed in most electric utility companies around southern California, Arizona, and Mexico when the on the afternoon of September 8.
Information from the , and it points out things we pretty much already knew, and some things we didn't have any idea about.
It appears, as we pretty much knew, that the whole thing kicked off with missteps by an Arizona Public Service worker trying to fix a problem at the Hassayampa switching station northeast of Yuma- your basic human error.
The efforts to fix that problem instead tripped a 500kv power line feeding into our area offline.
Demand for power automatically switched to other high tension lines- lines that couldn't handle it all.
That caused the beginnings of overloads on other lines into and out of San Diego- particularly another 500kv line at the San Onofre switching facility.
That isolated San Onofre, and in order to protect itself from surge damage, San Onofre went offline.
It seems somewhat silly to say this, , but it could have been a lot worse. We could have been without power for days, maybe even weeks, if the system had NOT shut itself down, as it is designed to do.
The way the system is designed, it left San Diego Gas and Electric in the position of having to sacrifice its customers for hours, to prevent the further collapse of the whole interconnected system.
That cost businesses, like restaurants, monetary damages for spoiled food and loss of business that have yet to be fully calculated.
OK, we get that.
It is what it is- for now.
The Cali ISO- the independent systems operator in Sacramento, says it appears a major part of the problem was that at least five different power-providing entities had no idea what, if anything, their partners in power supply were doing, or not doing, to try to put the brakes on the problem before it snowballed into what it did.
This lack of communication, says Cal ISO, is not a new phenomenon- it's been going on for years.
Yes, the Western Power Grid, and all its component parts, are designed to be able to protect itself in case of a massive emergency , like a major earthquake or huge fires destroying major power lines.
We've had experience with things like that, haven't we?
But we're all left with the question- why WEREN'T the power providers talking? Why DON'T the power providers have plans to look inside each others' capabilities and problems when something like this starts out?
Are you telling me no one was capable of picking up a telephone?
Does no one have land lines that would continue to work, even if the power has gone out to all those thousands and thousands of cell phone towers?
Maybe I've got it all wrong, but I don't think so.
Communication is all in situations like this.
I watched through the rolling blackouts of a few years ago, standing there in the SDG&E control center, watching people trying to communicate.
Didn't work so good then- didn't work so good this time, either.
Doesn't anybody around here talk to anybody else?

On Thursday, the actor offered his congratulations to Reese Witherspoon, who is newly engaged to Hollywood agent Jim Toth.
"I'm very happy for both Reese and Jim," the actor, who was married to Witherspoon for seven years before they split in 2008, tells the New York Daily News in a statement. "I wish nothing but the best for the mother of my children."
Phillippe, 36, and Witherspoon, 34, have two children together, Ava, 11, and Deacon, 7.
Witherspoon announced her engagement this week, and it was revealed that Toth, 40, proposed with a 4-carat Ashoka diamond stunner set on a pave diamond-and-platinum band.

Holy Motors
Denis Lavant, Eva Mendes, Kylie Minogue, Edith Scob
Directed by Leos Carax
Leos Carax, the French writer and director of the wondrous and wicked Holy Motors, has met the challenge of filming the visions dancing and dueling inside his own internally exploding head. Love him or hate him, Carax does Carax brilliantly. From 1984's Boy Meets Girl and 1991's Les Amants du Pont-Neuf through his last film,1999's hugely divisive Pola X, Carax goes his own artful way with a talent that makes up its own rules.
Holy Motors swept me up in its surreal landscape of film genres by the sheer force of Carax's devotion to cinema (he's a former film critic). The great Denis Lavant, a Carax muse and an actor of shimmering physical grace, takes on a dozen roles, male and female. As Monsieur Oscar, Lavant begins his work in Paris by climbing into a white stretch limo chauffeured by loyal Celine (a mesmerizing Edith Scob). Each stop will require Oscar, with the help of wardrobe and makeup in the back seat, to transform himself into a variety of characters – a tycoon, a gypsy beggar, a ninja warrior. You get the picture. Even if you don't, you'll be transported by Lavant as Monsieur Merde, a sewer troll who kidnaps a model (Eva Mendes) from a fashion shoot in Pere-Lachaise cemetery, or as an assassin sent to kill his own double, or – in a rush of pure romantic yearning – a man reunited with a former amour (Aussie pop star Kylie Minogue) in a deserted department store that becomes the setting for a musical interlude of surpassing loveliness. Minogue's singing of the emotive "Who Were We," co-written by Carax, makes a gorgeous coda to a movie that's drunk on its own movie love. Don't be afraid to leap into the wild blue of Carax's untamable imagination. Holy Motors, fueled by pure feeling, is a dream of a movie you want to get lost in. It's a thing of beauty.

Ross Harrison, who has autism, was found cold, hungry and tired last week. Now Fox 5, with the help of Dr. Manny Alvarez, is making sure Ross doesn't get lost again.
We came to see Ross and his family Wednesday night, and this time we came bearing a gift.
It's called the EmSeeQ locator band. It looks like a watch but it does much more than tell time: it uses cell phone type technology to help locate a person. Hopefully this will keep 13-year-old Ross from getting lost again.
Last week Ross spent almost three days riding the subway after getting lost in the city. He was found early friday morning miles from his Bronx home.
The locator is made by a company called EmFinders.
Our medical expert, Dr. Manny Alvarez, was so touched by Ross's story, he contacted the company after Ross was found last week. Dr. Manny's own son has autistism.
The CEO of EmFinders gave Ross the free locator band and his family a year's worth of free service. That's a value of close to a thousand bucks.
But of course, the human value and peace of mind is worth much more.
And it looks pretty cool too.

The article "Cresson gets its chance to be heard" stated that elected officials urged everyone impacted to attend a hearing on Jan. 31.
The impact of the closing of SCI-Cresson will go far beyond Cresson. It will affect individuals and businesses in much of Cambria County.
I am the owner of a small business, and every phase of my business will be negatively affected by this closing.
Gov. Tom Corbett and state Department of Corrections Secretary John Wetzel are so very proud of the savings for the state, but these savings are at the expense of the 500 employees and the individuals and businesses in this county.
The cost for each employee to drive to work annually will be approximately $5,200, and that's if the gas prices do not increase. That will be thousands of dollars more a year out of the family's paycheck.
Because of this expense, families will have a lot less to spend, and that will directly affect the business community.
I, as a business owner, support various school and community activities. With the adverse affect on sales, every business owner will not be able to support these activities. My point being – the economic impact is far-reaching and will affect everyone in this area.
The decision to close is up to one man, Corbett. Isn't that a dictatorship?

We can't retake culture by force
In response to Gale Bala's Readers' Forum letter on Jan. 29, "It's essential to retake our culture": How does the writer propose to do it without forcing the will of others?
In a recent study, 78 percent of Americans identify themselves as Christians. Of those, 58 percent do not attend church regularly.
According to the study, 20 percent of all Christians attend church regularly. It's safe to say that the church has failed to win souls for Christ.
The apostle Paul warned that there would be a falling away before the man of sin is revealed, the son of perdition (2 Thessalonians 2:3-12).
It is this failure to win souls and make disciples that has many churches and their members entering into the political arena to change others' beliefs by force where it failed to do by love, as Jesus commands.
If we are the salt of the earth and the light, as Jesus says, then we should attract by love and truth, not by force.
God never forces the will or the conscience of his children – even on those who reject him.
Neither should we, if love doesn't work, leave it in God's hands, for he is the judge of all. It is Satan who forces the will and conscience, and when we impose our beliefs or morals on others, then we are doing Satan's work. It is not the churches' job to fill pews or force political agendas.
The Bible says we are to make disciples, we are to be like Christ (1 John 3:2). This is how we win souls for God.

Step up and bear the responsibility
Regarding the allegations of sexual abuse against Brother Paul Stephen Baker, who once served as an educator at Bishop McCort Catholic High School: Who is one of the first persons who should be questioned?
Some years ago, when rumors were rampant in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown about sexual abuse by ordained priests, Bishop Joseph Adamec was heard to say "not on my watch."
Well, guess whose "watch" it was when Baker was transferred to Bishop McCort?
Did Adamec not have any knowledge at all about what happened in Ohio?
Let's see who has the courage to tell us who really is responsible for what happened to those young men.

Hilltop 'fixture' will be missed by many
A great heart was stilled Wednesday evening.
Sam Hillard was a humble, loyal, devoted champion of all things Westmont Hilltop, and our world is poorer for the loss of him.
Mr. Hillard was an educator first and foremost, having taught there for 38 years, until his retirement in 1999.
He was a relentless supporter of all Westmont Hilltop School District activities. King Hillard, as he was known,
was always there, whether it was taking tickets, running the clock, working the concession stand for sporting events, or sitting quietly through the musicals, one-act plays and choral, band and orchestra concerts.
His passion for the marching band, guard and percussion groups' competitions, culminating in their yearly Wildwood trips, was seen through the amazing "happy grams" he sent through The Tribune-Democrat.
In the past few weeks, Mr. Hillard received many online comments as well as visits from current and former students, who all spoke of the encouragement he gave them as a teacher and as a person.
Out-of-town students even asked their parents to please come and see Mr. Hillard for them.
For those of us who worked with Mr. Hillard in any capacity, we also saw how special he was, and how his loyalty to Westmont was unmatched.
Truly, Mr. Hillard was one of a kind.
As Mr. Hillard told us many times, and we now tell him, "Soar high like the eagles."
Angels are on your doorstep, our friend.
King Hillard, the great and wonderful, you are already missed beyond words.

In the Garden > Flowering Plants & Shrubs
The Burke's Backyard Spring Special features the following plants.
Rhododendrons are one of the world's most beautiful cold climate flowering plants. There are between 800 and 900 different wild kinds of rhododendrons, as well as thousands of hybrids. They range in size from tiny specimen shrubs to impressive trees that grow up to 20-30m (100') tall. Some species, such as Rhododendron 'Christmas Cheer', can also be used as hedging plants.
Christmas Cheer is a low growing shrub that is no taller than two metres when fully grown. They have gorgeous soft pink flowers that fade to a very pale pink.
Common name: 'Christmas Cheer'. The rhododendron is so named because it flowers in the northern hemisphere around Christmas time.
Botanic name: Rhododendron. The genus name derives from two Greek words, rhoden, 'a rose', and dendron, 'a tree'.
Best climate: Cooler and mountain areas of Australia.
Best look: Planted in a row, they make a spectacular hedge.
Good points: Low maintenance shrub that requires little pruning.
Dislikes: Extremely hot, dry weather - mulch well in spring and summer to keep roots cool and moist.
Care: Prune after flowering has completed.
Availability: Plants are available at most garden centres in south eastern Australia and mountain districts. It costs $30 for a 25cm (10") pot.
Further information: Rhododendrons can be viewed in gardens in the cooler parts of Australia including: Mount Tomah Botanic Garden, Bells Line of Road, Mount Tomah, NSW, 2758. Phone: (02) 4567 2154. The National Rhododendron Gardens, the Georgian Road, Olinda, Victoria, 3788. Phone: (03) 9751 1980.
The jonquil is one of the best bulbs for Australian conditions. 'Erlicheer' is an easy-to-grow, beautifully perfumed, creamy coloured double flower. As its name suggests it flowers early. It is very hardy, flowering relentlessly each year.
For more information on jonquils, see this week's jonquil fact sheet.
Forget-me-nots have long been a garden favourite for their dainty blue flowers that complement plants of stronger colour and form. In recent years pink and white forms have also become available.
Common name: Forget-me-not
Botanic name: Myosotis sylvatica. The genus name derives from the Greek words meaning 'mouse ear' and refers to the pointed tips of the leaves. The species name is Latin, meaning 'of the forest'.
Best climate: Forget-me-nots grow in all regions of Australia except tropical areas north of Brisbane.
Best look: Forget-me-nots make an attractive ground cover and create lovely washes of colour when planted in drifts.
Down side: Growth can become rangy and weed-like.
Care: Forget-me-nots respond well to additional feeding in the pre-flowering period.
Availability: Forget-me-nots are available at most garden centres and cost $4 for a 10cm (4") pot and $8 for a 15cm (6") pot.
One of the most popular forms of pieris is 'Christmas Cheer', a tall shrub or small tree (between 2-3m or 6-10' tall) with white to deep pink pendulous flowers. It is a variety of Pieris japonica, as are many of the most commonly grown varieties of pieris.
Common name: Lily of the Valley shrub. The plant's firm, waxy white flowers are reminiscent of lily-of-the-valley (Convallaria). It is also known as pearly flower and andromeda.
Botanic name: Pieris japonica. The genus name Pieris is from Pieria, a district on the slopes of Mt Olympus in Greece. Pieria is the birthplace of the mythological Muses (all daughters of Jupiter). The species name 'japonica' means from Japan and refers to the origin of this species.
Best climate: Pieris grow well in the cooler regions of Australia, from Sydney to Perth and areas south but are at their best in the mountains, Tasmania and parts of Victoria. They will also grow in the inland regions of Queensland. They like similar conditions to azaleas or camellias, that is well-drained, slightly acid soil and filtered light.
Best look: Massed together or grown in a mixed planting under trees or against a wall.
As well as P. japonica there are other species of pieris that are sold at nurseries. A tall-growing, spring flowering species is Pieris formosa, which grows to 4m (12'). A form of this is P. formosa var. forestii, which is smaller than the species with crimson new growth and panincles of flowers.
Plants are available at most garden centres in southern Australia and mountain districts all year round. Nurseries specialising in rare or cool climate plants should have a comprehensive range of pieris varieties.
These plants may be new to many gardeners and a new book by Margaret Hibbert helps you to locate them and many other plantings throughout south-eastern Australia.
The Aussie Plant Finder 1997/98 by Margaret Hibbert (Florilegium, 1997). ISBN 0958649898. Contact your local bookstore or Florilegium on (02) 9555 8589. Rrp $19.95.
Hellebores are excellent ground cover plants for shaded areas and their winter flowers brighten up the garden when many plants are looking bleak and miserable.
In the past it was difficult to find hellebores in pure colours. Many purple and pink flowers were tinged with green, making them less attractive and fairly insignificant. But growers are now producing hellebore varieties with strong, pure colours such as white, red, mauve and pink. For something different, look for hellebores with pure green flowers.
Common name: Hellebore or Lenten Rose. Despite the common name, these plants are not roses. In Australia they flower in winter not at Christmas. The name Lenten or Christmas Rose refers to their winter flowering in the northern hemisphere.
Botanic name: Helleborus orientalis (one of several species of ornamental hellebores). Hellebores are a member of the buttercup family, Ranunculaceae. The genus name Helleborus was originally used by Greek botanist Theophrastus to refer to medicinal herbs and it gradually became associated with what is known today as the hellebore. The species name orientalis means from the east.
Note: As there is so much hybridisation, garden forms are often referred to as H. x orientalis, H. orientalis Hybrids or H. hybrids.
Best climate: Grows best in southern Australia in cool, elevated regions from Sydney to Perth and south.
Best look: Hellebores are ideal for planting in drifts under trees.
Down side: Many hellebores have flowers which hang down and cannot be fully appreciated when viewed from above.
Flowering: Hellebores flower from winter to early spring. The flowers bloom on stout stalks and stand between 20-50cm (8-20") tall. Heads start off as nodding (bent down) flowers but do straighten with age.
Note: Hellebores make good cut flowers if picked when they are mature, fading in colour and beginning to turn lime green. If picked earlier, they will soon wilt when put in a vase.
Getting started: Buy hellebores in bloom to ensure flower colours are agreeable. Potted plants are available from most nurseries in areas where hellebores grow from $10 (for a 15cm or 6" pot). Plants are also available from perennial and cottage garden specialist nurseries and from some mail-order bulb suppliers.

Fetishes review by Other Music"I'm psyched to be offering up this great release by local provocateur Smoota...who steps out on his own for a killer album that combines the slinky DIY funk grooves of Shuggie Otis with the offbeat, trippy psychedelic stoner charm of James Pants, all topped off with a sly pervy streak that winks toward Serge Gainsbourg and the P-Funk mob.... The twelve songs on Fetishes offer up a killer platter of smooth, laidback soul and funk that's slightly gritty at the edges; he's a skilled musician with the chops to pull this off, playing everything himself and singing every note, and his take on this sound offers riches that reward with multiple listens. It's definitely one of the year's most surprising records...and if you dig soul sounds that keep one foot in the pocket with the other out to lunch, you'll definitely appreciate what Smoota's offering here. This one definitely gets top marks all around from me!" - Mikey IQ Jones

Moviefone just published a "Top 10 Breakout Stars of 2009″ list, and Taylor Lautner took the #1 spot:
Royally buffing up as the shapeshifting werewolf Jacob Black in the sequel 'The Twilight Saga: New Moon,' Taylor Lautner redefines teenage hunk in his breakout role. Graduating from Bella's long-haired admirer in the first film, Lautner is able to flex his muscles, quite literally, with a much larger, brooding part in the second vampire flick.
New Moon's Anna Kendrick also got a spot at #7 (though mostly because of Up in the Air). The list also includes notably actresses like Zoe Saldana (Avatar) and Gabby Sidibe (Precious).2Post a Comment

Positive Experience
Easy Interview
I applied in-person - interviewed at AppleOne in April 2013.
Interview Details – Very easy, however my interview ran longer because they couldn't find the application I had filled out online. I had to fill it out again, which took an extra half hour. The entire process ended up taking me 3 hours. They had several positions available that I am currently interviewing for, one specifically that I am very interested in.
Interview Question – There weren't any. It was a very simple interview process, they are very interested to know exactly what type of position you feel you would be most suited for, be detailed in letting them know for the best fit. Answer Question
No Offer
Negative Experience
Easy Interview
I applied online and the process took 2 days - interviewed at AppleOne in February 2013.
Interview Details – I applied online and set up an interview for the following week. I was called the next morning and asked a few questions about my work experience. I have never held a job with the job title of administrative assistant (I had employees that had that job title) and so I was told that they were cancelling my interview.
Interview Question – Have you ever held a job as an administrative assistant? Answer Question

Easy Interview
I applied online and the process took 5 days - interviewed at AppleOne in August 2011.
Interview Details – Don't even waste your time. They "collect all the information" send you to only one interview, and if that is not a match, you get filed in the back of a very deep bucket. Then they annoy you throughout the year, and "suddenly" they just possibly have a job that you "might fit" and send you really annoying emails. And you have to keep them informed weekly as to your status.

Difficult Interview
I applied through a staffing agency and the process took a day - interviewed at AppleOne in September 2011.
Interview Details – AppleOne's testing process took about 90 minutes to complete. I was tested on Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The one-on-one interview with their recruiting rep was a wake-up call to me: it made me aware of how much I needed to polish my interviewing skills. I was my own worst enemy! I went to the Employment Development Dept's Job Seeker Center in Sunnyvale and took every class they offered, and it's all free, too. What a huge help that was! In fact, I think it would be worthwhile for these temp agencies to coach their recruits on interviewing skills.

Seems like they have the process down to a pretty good science.Be prepared for standard skills test. Recruiter I worked with seeemed very busy but attentive to my needs.

Very Difficult Interview
I applied online and the process took a day - interviewed at AppleOne in October 2009.
Interview Details – Very disappointing. I have over 10 years experience in the field I applied for. I took a year off from the field to focus on a degree (a four year degree at that) and worked as a part time waitress during that period. This company could not look past that one year of service to another industry, didnt care what so ever about having recently completed a four year degree, nor the several recommendations I received from prior employers. I spent an hour and a half completing a very detailed application to include a skills test, etc. I know I did well on those test no dought because I have passed them with flying colors on the job & with other temporary agencies. I received a call at the end of business day the day before my interview (which was scheduled three days prior) and told "You have great qualifications however our clients prefer persons with more recent experience". I was astonished that they chose to cancel an in person interview and persue following through with in house testing because they could not look past one year of service outside of the desired industry, especially for what I was able to offer. I feel this company is very narrow minded and has tunnel vision. I actually feel bad for employers who rely on them because I can just imagine the number of well-rounded potential employees they are being cheated of.

Average Interview
I applied through a recruiter and the process took 2 days - interviewed at AppleOne in April 2009.
Interview Details – I applied for an Administrative Assistant position I found on Craigslist. I received a phone call from a recruiter at Apple talking about how great a candidate I am for the role. I was immediately hopeful and excited to be getting a chance to interview. I did not how recruiting worked at the time. We immediately scheduled an interview.
Arriving at the office I was asked to fill out paper I already spend 30mins filling out on their website after which I was placed in a room to take a computerized exam. After that point I waited another 30mins and was finally taken into the room for the interview. I spoke to one recruiter who assessed my skills and realized I would be a fit for a position they had directly in their office. She told me the qualifications and asked if I was interested, I said I was. She brought in another employee who used to work in that position who was now a recruiter, we spoke to she told me more about the position I again said I was interested. Two or three more people later, upon walking out I was told that they wanted to consult with another employee and they would call me the following day to ask me to come in for training day. That was the last I heard of AppleOne. They never called me back, they took the position off their site, I contacted the recruiter she did not return my calls or emails.
Declined Offer
Negative Experience
Average Interview
The process took a day - interviewed at AppleOne in May 2012.
Interview Details – I was initially contacted via phone because the recruiter saw my resume on Careerbuilder. We played phone tag for a couple days, then when I spoke with her we set the interview date for within a week. The interview lasted a few hours, but it was mostly because she was so talkative and over the top. She spent more time critiquing me than actually assessing my knowledge, skills or abilities. In the last 10 mins of the interview was when she finally told me a little about the position and the company (AppleOne) and told me she thought I'd be a great fit (go figure). I seriously thought she was giving me a Stress Test interview. Turns out, she is really just that abrasive.
My perceptions is that this company may be a hit-or-miss sort of establishment. I have heard of successes, but I have also heard of some epic failures. For me, this was a fail. Her contact and initiative to do her part of the job since "selling" me on the company has not be up to par. Honestly, I think it was a waste of my time.
Interview Question – Has anyone ever told you how bad this resume is? View Answer
Reason for Declining – The offer wasn't in the area of work I wanted to move into.

The Times-Tribune
To the people of Whitley County,
I hope that everyone had a wonderful holiday season! I wanted to say "thank you" to all of my supporters in this brief election cycle. I am very proud of the campaign that I was able to run. I tried to run a campaign that had integrity, honesty and humility. Just as I was taught from my family, church, school and university, all of which hold a special place in my heart.
Now that the campaign season is over, I ask that you join me and follow the lead of Senator Gregory as she leads our district. Pray that the Lord will lead her and our other representatives both local and federal to make the best decisions for all of the people.
Bill Conn,

As the inventor of the telephone, Alexander Graham Bell is credited with bringing countless voices to our ears. And now, for the first time, here he is imploring us to hear his own voice:
The sound is scratchy. You have to strain to decipher it, but the words are clear. They're from Bell's lips, recorded in 1885 but unveiled just last week by the Smithsonian.
"It lets us know what the past was really like. It fills in a gap for people," says Shari Stout, collections manager at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.

Kansan journalist Jason Probst says the Kansas he knows has disappeared.
"The great state of Kansas passed away on March 31, 2013 after a long and difficult battle with extremism," he wrote in an editorial for The Hutchinson News.
His faux obituary, lamenting Kansas' embrace of conservatism, went viral. Tens of thousands of people read it. Many were fellow Kansans who wrote to Probst to say they, too, were disturbed by their state's dramatic swing to the right.

The summer of 1883 proved to be a pivotal time for American baseball.
A brash German immigrant and beer garden owner, Chris Von der Ahe strode onto the scene to found a new franchise, the St. Louis Browns — a team that would later become the St. Louis Cardinals.
His motivation? To sell more beer. And while he made a fortune, he also changed the sport forever.

It has been a boon literary year for wine lovers. The flow of noteworthy books has been so steady that some seminal works can get lost in the current, like a 25th-anniversary edition of Adventures on the Wine Route, Kermit Lynchs prophetic look back at the wisdom and traditions discarded by the mid-20th-century wine industry, presaging a welcome rediscovery and new embrace.
Among the new, these books stand out as particularly provocative, informing or entertaining, sometimes all at once.
First comes The New California Wine: A Guide to the Producers and Wines Behind a Revolution in Taste (Ten Speed Press, $35), by Jon Bonné.
As wine editor of The San Francisco Chronicle, Bonné has been positioned perfectly to observe the profound pendulum swing in style and attitude that has occurred among California winemakers over the last decade. While revolution may be too strong a term if simply tracking public tastes and sales figures, it nonetheless captures a sense of mental liberation among winemakers and consumers freed from a stultifying, dominant style that Bonné labels Big Flavor.
Bonné is occasionally more polemical than edifying, and the book is organizationally awkward. But the story is important and well told, and the time is right.
I dont imagine Clark Smith would be as enthusiastic about Bonnés book as I am. In his new and challenging Postmodern Winemaking: Rethinking the Modern Science of an Ancient Craft (University of California Press, $35), Smith disdains critics like him or, uh, me who may be inclined to speak from an idealistic perspective.
Talk is cheap for the critic who doesnt have to live with the consequences, he grumps.
Yet Smith is hardly a curmudgeon. He is lively, funny, cantankerous, devilish and hard to pin down as Gutman says to Spade in The Maltese Falcon: By gad, sir, you are a character.
Befitting Smith, this is a most unusual book, written more for winemakers than for the general public. Yet anybody interested in the craft of winemaking and an industry perspective will find it fascinating, occasionally maddening, enlightening yet not entirely convincing.
The World Atlas of Wine (Mitchell Beazley, $55), by Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson, is the single most important reference book on the shelf of any wine student. The new seventh edition, coming six years after the last, mirrors the evolution that has now entrenched wine as a global enterprise.
Counterintuitively, many changes have occurred in the historic wine countries, where ancient regions like Ribeira Sacra in northwestern Spain, Sicily and Ahr in Germany are now making fascinating 21st-century wines. The authors have updated these entries and many others, particularly for Eastern Europe, the Balkans and Canada. Maps have been freshened and expanded, and in the iBook edition ($25), you can zoom in on details concealed in print from middle-aged eyes.
Certain regions, like California and Champagne, could use a more detailed re-examination. Connoisseurs of past editions will note less of Johnsons playful pungency and more of Robinsons elegant understatement, as her contribution has increased. Nonetheless, this new edition remains as vital and essential as the last six.
Ray Walkers life is a fairy tale. As a young American in the Bay Area, Walker heard the siren call of Burgundy. With the barest experience in the wine business, with few contacts, no French and a young family, he took off for France and, before you could wave your wand, became the first American ever to make Le Chambertin, one of the grandest of Burgundys grand crus.
How was this possible? Walker, who is now firmly situated in Burgundy with his family, tells his story of passion, determination and unbelievable luck in The Road to Burgundy: The Unlikely Story of an American Making Wine and a New Life in France (Gotham Books, $26).
Its a slender volume, easy to read and engaging. If it falls short of inspiring, its only because key points of drama are resolved through the sort of shocking good fortune that we have trouble accepting outside of fables.
The book ends as Walker achieves his dream, yet his story in real life has continued and deepened since. I, for one, am eager for another volume on life in Burgundy.
Pomerol is sort of a velvet-roped VIP club of Bordeaux. Its mysterious, a backwater with little of the tourist allure of St.-Émilion or the grandeur of the Médoc. Its best wines are beautiful, yet rarely encountered because of price and scarcity. Not much has been written about it, which makes Neal Martins magnificent self-published book, Pomerol, particularly welcome despite the frustrating thirst it will produce.
Martin, a British critic who writes for Robert M. Parker Jr., specializes in Bordeaux, and this comprehensive tour of the history, land and most important producers is authoritative and entertaining. No hushed reverence or omniscience here. Instead, Martins Pomerol is populated with red-blooded characters, both aristocratic and plebeian. His judgments are sharp but fair, and his wine descriptions acute.
This is a huge book, almost 600 good-size pages, easy to absorb in small sips. Its not easy to obtain, available only through the pomerolbook.com for 50 pounds (about $82) plus postage. But if you love Bordeaux, its worth the trouble.
