Our screens are often filled with adverts for the mass-produced wines of California or Australia kindly sponsoring our favourite sitcom, but while their wines are generally palatable and cheap, I can't help but find them a little soulless.
Thanks to the cooking show craze that has taken over our screens, the U.K has never before been so culinary obsessed, or so wine and food savvy. Saturday morning kitchen and similar programmes are apparently responsible for a mad weekly rush to consume whichever wine has been recommended by their respective suave wine specialists and as a result, tastes are evolving. But there's not just the wine to go with the food, but also the wine to go in the food to consider!
The best advice I have been given in regards to cooking with wine, is never to cook with a wine that you wouldn't like to drink (there goes the free bottle from the local takeaway!). As W. C. Fields put it, "I cook with wine; sometimes I even add it to the food!" Some companies have even taken to manufacturing ranges of culinary wines and spirits, with lower alcohol content and enhanced flavour, to create unique and distinctive tastes when added to dishes. The alcohol itself doesn't add flavor, but aids in the release of flavour molecules in foods, assisting in the dissolving of fats and allowing ingredients to reveal unique characteristics in ways that water or broth cannot. When adding wine to a sauce I'm always careful to allow most of the alcohol to cook off; otherwise I'm left with a harsh, slightly boozy taste. When I get it right (every so often!) and let the alcohol burn away, the flavours become more concentrated and delicious. I will never make another Sunday roast gravy without wine again!
Many factors need to be taken into consideration when choosing which wine to add to what dish, such as tannins, acidity, flavor and aroma. For example, tannins, which come from the grapes, skin, stems, and seeds, vary in their strength, with thick-skinned grapes like Cabernet Sauvignon producing more tannic wines than thinner–skinned varietals such as Pinot Noir. Tannins in the wine will in turn affect your eating experience. Tannins are experienced in the mouth as a drying sensation, and a young red wine with lots of tannins, will come across as rather astringent. However, if you pair this quality in Cabernet Sauvignon with Beef dishes it can have marvelous results! This is because the tannins in the wine are attracted to the proteins in the meat rather than the proteins in your saliva, which creates a softer, less astringent affect in the mouth. If you want to make a sauce for a vegetarian dish, I would recommend a less tannic red wine such as a Pinot Noir, or a white wine.
When it comes to acidity, it's best to match an acidic food with a wine with enough acid to stand up to it, for example matching tomato-based pasta dishes with a Chianti Classico, rather than a soft Merlot, which simply can't compete!
May 2012
Ah yes, this is it. If ever there was a year to be proud of being British, then surely this is it! The Queen's Diamond Jubilee, the Olympic games hosted by Blighty and the Bakewell Tart flavoured Müller Corner; could it get any better?
It's time to celebrate the best of British in all its forms, its dancing dogs, its changeable weather and of course (to get the party underway), its alcohol! Beer, Cider, Spirits and lets not forget wine, you name it we've got it, and what choice there is! We're all aware of our long love affair with home-grown Beer, Ale and Cider, but until a few years ago you'd be hard pressed to find a good, drinkable English wine. It's becoming very clear however, that 'times they are a-changin', and this could be the year to really put English wine on the map!
Summer 2012 is set to see an unprecedented increase in demand for English wine as we all delight in our Britishness, and believe me there's plenty of it out there to be proud of. Regions which produce smaller yields are often higher in price, and although English wines reflect this, it's worth remembering that in International blind tastings, sparkling English wines have been known to out perform their Champagne rivals! As it turns out southern England's semi-continental climate provides near perfect growing conditions for the three main grapes used in champagne – pinot noir, chardonnay and pinot meunier. Most of our vineyards can be found in the south-facing, chalky hills of the South, from Cornwall and Devon in the West Country, across to Hampshire, Sussex, Surrey and Kent in the South-east and up to Suffolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex in East Anglia. The six most celebrated English vineyards are Camel Valley in Cornwall; Three Choirs in Gloucestershire; Nyetimber in West Sussex; Ridgeview in East Sussex; Denbies in Surrey; and Chapel Down in Kent.
'Worcesterparkians' in the know, will no doubt be aware of Denbies in Dorking and may have already sampled some of their lovely wines which start at around £7.75. If you haven't been it's worth visiting to discover what Surrey has to offer in terms of English wine. Try the Chalk Ridge Rose, the 2010 was awarded gold at the International Wine Challenge 2011. England was one of 21 countries to submit a wine in the still rosé category for which there were 367 entries. This was the only gold award achieved in the still rosé category and an unprecedented achievement for an English wine!
Happily, there are too many excellent wines for me to cover here, but Nyetimber is one that simply cannot not be ignored! Mentioned in the Domesday Book and once home to Anne of Cleves, fourth wife of Henry VIII, this Sussex vineyard is producing some of our oldest sparkling wines, which are arguably up there with the finest sparkling wines in the world. The French were (of course) harder to convince until 1997 when in a blind tasting Nyetimber's 1992 Blanc de Blancs caused a debate as to which area of France it came from! Admittedly Nyetimber Classic cuvee will set you back £25 or more, but when you consider the historical Kudos (and the ability to pull the wool over the French Oenophiles eyes), it seems a small price to pay!
March 2012
I've just returned from a wonderful, if somewhat chaotic trip to Croatia and although I'm exhausted, my passion for the people, land, sea, food and of course wine, has been well and truly renewed!
My husband and I were there for a family wedding, which took place in the beautiful town of Opatija in western Croatia on the Adriatic coast. With its stunning Austro-Hungarian architecture, winding 'lungomare' seaside promenade and blue waters, it's a place that once visited, you must return to again and again. Our trip was made all the more exciting by the thirty-odd young Belgians there to cheer on the groom, who could not have enjoyed their first visit to Croatia more, and boy did we know it!
The wine at the reception was highly enjoyable and suitably easy to drink. With the weather so bright and summery, I chose to drink the Zlahtina. The perfect accompaniment to Croatia's gorgeous sheep's milk cheeses, fish and white meat dishes, this local white wine is grown mainly in a narrow area of the nearby Island of Krk. Zlahtina is always gentle and medium bodied and I like to describe it as a beginners wine, a wine to ease the unsure into Croatian vino territory. The variety gives high yields of large grapes, yet good quality juice that produces wines of alcohol content ranging from 11% to 12%. With soft aromas of apple and ripe citrus and occasional floral notes, this is an immediate wine, a drink now variety that in my opinion, does not age well due to its gentle nature. It's not yet available in the UK, but I believe it's just a matter of time.
As the evening wore on the food was plentiful (7 or 8 courses!), the music was loud, but the Belgians were louder! Belgian chants of 'Where is the party, here is the party', dominated the evening. Prior to the raucous toasts, I was overjoyed to be served a fantastic Croatian version of my favourite tipple… bubbly! Croatia is not often associated with sparkling wine but Persuric Misal Sparkling wine was deliciously delicate and fresh, and so I chose to spend much of the rest of my evening (and morning) sipping Croatian bubbly on the Marina at Icici, while the party carried on inside.
Alas, the trip was over and I had to leave the sun, sea (and sparkling) and return to England to work. My husband stayed out there to explore the nearby Istrian wine country (alright for some!) with the perfect guide, his mother who is herself Istrian. While I can't help but bemoan the fact that I couldn't stay longer myself, my lovely husband did return bearing gifts! Right now I'm looking at seven different bottles of wine from Istria that I've been told are to die for. Croatia never ceases to surprise me and I can't wait to try these new offerings. I'll keep you posted but if you're tempted to go there and explore Croatia and its wines for yourself, do it. I promise you won't be disappointed!
February 2012
Like many women, I'm a romantic. Like many men, my husband is not. Don't get me wrong he certainly has his moments, but after twelve years together, I've resigned myself to the fact that if I require a little romancing, I'd better suggest it myself! In the run up to Valentines day, I'm often asked for suggestions by panicked male friends, and while their other halves are likely to be perfectly happy with traditional gestures like flowers or chocolates, lets be honest, it's not exactly pushing the boat out effort wise. This Valentines, I've come up with a cunning plan to score the menfolk some serious brownie points, so ladies look away now!
Gents, how about preparing a gourmet, award worthy meal for your other half? Fear not, I am not for a moment suggesting that you come over all Heston Blumenthal, but a far simpler solution. The secret is www.cookfood.net. This ingenious family run company, offers award winning, chef prepared frozen meals delivered straight to your door! They aim to create fantastic dishes, prepared by hand using the same ingredients and techniques you would at home, and they don't disappoint. If you're really careful, you could fool the other half into thinking that the Beef wellington was indeed the result of you slaving in the kitchen for hours on end, with love in your heart!
I first came across this great concept at New Years while enjoying our 'staycation' in Lymington, Hampshire (highly recommended). What a great idea for those of us who don't have a great deal of time to cook , but still want to eat well and enjoy a special evening in without the stress of preparation, or the guilt that follows giving in to the local take-away! Imagine my excitement when on my return to Worcester Park, I discovered that there is a Cook shop in Epsom! It's close enough to drop in and choose your meals yourself, or just sit back and let someone bring a delicious dinner to you.
As you know, something would be amiss if I didn't talk about wine at some point in this article, and so I thought I'd take the guess work out of choosing a wine to match a few of their gorgeous 'special nights in' meals.
Roasted Confit of Duck with a Juniper Berry Sauce. This dish works really well with a peppery red wine, such as a predominantly Grenache blend. My personal recommendation is the La Citadelle Sablet from Boutinot for around £10.99. It's not a cheap bottle, but for a special occasion, you can't go wrong! This Grenache, Syrah, Mouvedre blend and it's flavours of black cherry and black pepper, plays well against the sweet, gamey earthiness of the Duck.
Sea Bass with Asparagus tips and Linguine in a Lobster and Saffron Bisque. I love this because and you can go white or red with your wine choice. A crisp un-oaked Chardonnay is the way to go with the white, I recommend the South African Dusty Road un-oaked Chardonnay from Cloof wines from £7.49. Choose a light red like a Pinot noir, or a South African Old Vine Cinsault from Percheron for approximately £7.99.
Last but definitely not least, Risotto with porcini Mushrooms and lemon and sage butter. This vegetarian option is stunning! You can pair this with a light Italian red like a Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, or you could go all out with Laurent Perrier Rose Champagne! Go on, she's worth it!
By Aret Kapetanovic
Happy New Year! Here we are at the start of a new year, and once again it's time to take stock, take the reigns, and try to be a an all-round better human being! Each year I find myself right back here at the precipice of self-control, but alas, the end of the year comes and all I've discovered is a few new vices to give up and add to my long list of New Year's resolutions!
It's no secret that wine is my passion, and for obvious reasons many people would rather avoid the subject of alcohol straight after the Christmas period (due to either overindulgence, or overspending!), but I like to argue that good wine, good food and good company, are never out of season. I'd like to share with you, if I may, my plans to ease myself into 2012, treat myself to something a little special (without breaking the bank) indulge my passion for wine (without overindulging), and entice people to come out of their post-Christmas caves and join me (more on this later).
After the massive over-spend of the Christmas season, buying treats for oneself feels terribly naughty, but actually, this is the time to get some great deals on wine and find yourself an irresistible bargain in the process. (Don't forget to try Independent merchants for something a little unusual!).
Like many others, I tend to eat lighter meals at this time of year to compensate for stuffing myself silly over the last month, and sometimes it can be a good idea to let your wine choice dictate the style of food. For example, I'll be giving heavy Zinfandels, Malbec, or chunky Cabernet Sauvignons a rest for a little while (at least until February), and try to stick to lighter refreshing wines to be enjoyed in moderation and paired with delicate dishes, preferably with fewer calories! For example, Gruner Veltliner in its more structured form tends to be peppery but with its characteristics of peach and apple, it's a particularly good match for grilled fish. Spanish Albarino, is light, crisp and aromatic, and its grapefruity qualities work well with crab and prawn dishes as well as Chinese-style chicken. I doubt that there will be a complete lack of meat in my diet, but I plan to let a lovely Pinot Noir or Beaujolais select the dishes for me on the premise that if I match the body or weight of the wine to the intensity of the foods flavour, I'm less likely to choose a hefty meal to accompany it! Realistically, this good behaviour may not last long, but while it does. I'll feel better about myself!
Now, this is the part of the New Year that I am most excited about! At the end of 2011 I started hosting tastings for a company called Grape Vine Social which, wait for it, offers a genius combination of speed dating and wine tasting. Yes I know, it sounds crazy, but it's really incredibly fun! The idea is simple. The events are held all over London and the UK at great venues, and are centred on a wine or champagne tasting (you can also choose Beer or cocktails). The tasting is blind which makes it necessary to work in groups, and creates easy conversation and interaction, and of course the combination of wine and a room full of new faces, sets the scene for a highly enjoyable and raucous night! If you're interested in these great nights out, or know someone who might be, check out www.grapevinesocial.com.
To guarantee that they come out of hibernation this month, those of my friends who are single are already booked in, but keep it to yourselves, because they don't know it yet and after all, vine not?
This post is for anyone who loves a good Beef Stroganoff and/or a Rioja - we never tried them togher and what an amazing relevation it was!
We would recommend a decent modern style Rioja, one with at least 9 to 12 months of oak life, but where the fruit is still prominent and the wine does not have the classical full on licorice after taste.
On this occasion we had our own Fincas de Landaluce Rioja and we can not recommend this pairing enough.
Try this for the Stroganoff recipe (we used good quality diced beef rather than fillet and it was fine and also added some dried Porcini mushrooms for the extra earthy flavour).
Let us know what you think.
It's that time of the year again, a time for love, laughter merriment and overindulgence!
This year I've really got my work cut out for me. My husband and I are spending Christmas at my parents house, and in addition to my five brothers and sisters and their families, there will invariably be a hundred other people popping in, passing by, or simply related, who will need to be fed and watered. This Christmas I've been charged with the task of bringing over a box (or two) within which I will endeavor to match and compliment every foodie variant. When you consider that the guests will be Nigerian, Hungarian, Croatian, German, Indian and English, you may begin to see my dilemma!
Christmas day! Lets start with the all-important welcome aperitif. Rather than Champagne, Cava or Prosecco, this year I'm including a rather unusual Chilean sparkling wine, called Fresita. Made with Patagonian strawberries, this vibrant pink fizz is a huge hit with the ladies in my family, and at only 8% alcohol, it's a safer start to the festivities!
Roast glazed ham works best with wines that have a high level of acidity and a touch of sweetness. For white I'm including a Gewurztraminer (my mothers choice not mine, honest!), and for the red wine lovers, something not too heavy and which won't drown out the flavours, a lightly chilled Australian Pinot Noir. Chilled red wine! Sacrilege I hear you say, but it's really quite lovely.
Roast Turkey, the main event! A simple roast Turkey pairs nicely with a Chardonnay (yes really) or white Burgundy. Chardonnay adds flavour and complexity to the meat, whilst the Burgundy depending on the style, will add a leaner flavour with more minerality. I haven't decided between the two yet, so I may have to take them both, what a shame! If red wine is desired for this dish, I will serve a lovely light Beaujolais.
I love Turkey, but it doesn't seem to entirely satisfy all the Africans and Eastern Europeans among us, and so Beef (or sometimes Goat), is always a necessity at our family gatherings. Prime Rib is so tender and flavourful, it deserves a wine that stands up against all that flavour (and which isn't afraid of the horseradish!). It's tempting to start popping the corks of giant reds, however, I have decided to go down the more elegant route befitting high quality, rare meat. My choice is New World Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon. Prime Rib needs its structure and tannins but the meat's tenderness calls for its youthful energy.
Christmas isn't Christmas, without a host of fortified wines and my choice for this year are the classics, Sherry and Port. For me these are the bottles that are the most versatile over the festive period and the lead up to New Year. When visitors pop round, and a full meal isn't needed, fortified wines come into their own as an accompaniment to little snacks, creating an unusual cheese board, or on Christmas day, with a selection of festive cakes and puddings.
Here are a few pairing ideas. Manzanilla Sherry, the palest, finest and lightest bodied Sherry is particularly good with strongly flavoured seafood, and an excellent match for smoked salmon and other savoury nibbles, such as green olives and Serrano ham. Tawny Port is great, because it has so many possibilities. Serve it chilled as an aperitif, or as a substitute for dessert wines, especially with dried fruit and nut-based desserts, or with the cheese board. It's particularly good with Sheeps cheese and Cheddar. Last but not least, is Vintage Port. This classic Christmas tipple is the ultimate match to Stilton, or for those with a sweet tooth, top quality chocolate.
I'm really looking forward to Christmas this year, because as the bearer of this beautiful wooden wine gift box, I really should get to try all of the above. After all, it's only fair!
Happy Christmas!
A blend of Sangiovese, Canaiolo and Malvasia this Chianti DOCG is a simple, delightful food wine that can be enjoyed with wide variety of dishes.
Firm and balanced with intense dried cherries and floral notes.

Hello everyone,
I'm on a dilemma and I'm seeking for your advice guys. I been playing as a goalie for a year or two, I still have not got all the equipment (I can borrow part of it in the place where I play), but probably we would get a team to play in Las Vegas this year... so not having my own equipment is not a choice, I need to get a chest protector and also skates.
My question is... does goalie skates make a huge difference compared to wearing regular skates? I would like to get a pair of goalie skater, but if I can invest on a new goalie pant instead of the skates.
Any advice? Do I keep using my regular skates or should I make the transition to goalie skates?

Have been in the military for a long time have not been home to see a game but catch everyone that I can on TV. I am moving home soon so you know were I will be on the weekends. And breaking in a new wife and a baby (have to bring the baby up right). Can not wait to get home. Wife got introduced to the game in London in 2008 and feel in love with our favorite sport. You will find no better fan than a PACKER BACKER. Will see everyone soon.

The staduim was so clean and put together for the number of people in it. The game was just a blast even though I wasn't a Packer fan. The people where just so freindly and talked to you even thought you never seen them before.

The Green Bay Packers are the only not-for-profit and community owned team in the NFL, much less all of professional sports. This fact alone could make the Packers stand out, but the third oldest team in the NFL wouldn't have it that way. Established in 1919, the team boasts more than 12 league championships, nine of these triumphs happening before the Super Bowl existed. If the hard data isn't enough to peak interest, then the Packers' hard-hitting play will pull in any serious football fan. Tackle your opportunity to see professional football at its finest when you purchase your Green Bay Packers tickets today! The current NFC North team has had a relatively smooth sporting career on the feats of some of their most popular players, though like any team they have seen years of feast and famine. The Wisconsin-based squad holds more than 10 divisional, nine conference and several Super Bowl championship wins. These staggering numbers do not include their 20 plus playoff appearances. The Packers are home to a number of Pro Football Hall of Famers including players Cal Hubbard, Don Hutson and Reggie White as well as coaches Earl (Curly) Lambeau and Vince Lombardi. While they hold many records the Packers come in second behind their conference foes the Chicago Bears relative to the number of Hall of Famers the teams have churned out. Characteristic of the fervent NFL atmosphere, the Green Bay Packers have conference rivals in the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings. Also on the Packers' list of teams to beat are the Dallas Cowboys that, while not direct opponents, have come face-to-face with the Packers powerhouse numerous times in the playoffs. Whether it's a home game or out of town, the Green Bay Packers draw legions of cheesehead fans that love the team's powerful level of play! Reviews declare that the Packers are a great football experience for the whole family! Make sure that you are front and center for the action at Lambeau Field to cheer your favorite players on when you purchase your Green Bay Packers football tickets today!

Riven Rock Ranch Resort
Table Of Contents
Riven Rock Ranch is at one with its hilltop panorama high above the Guadalupe River. That it appears to have taken root and grown among the native trees is part illusion, part reality. Original ranch structures built by German settlers in the 1870s were the beginning of today's expansive ranch enclave. Stones and rocks used in construction and landscaping were-and still are-quarried on site. Founded as a ranch and farm operation, and still a working ranch with self-sufficiency farm undertones, Riven Rock Ranch is developing a new dimension as a legendary resort of very real pleasures and restorative powers.
Today's owners, Chris and Elaine Havens, have combined their energy, industry, and artistry to create the perfect environment for modern man to examine and refresh his relationship with nature, his fellow-man, and himself, then to come away whole.
The path that led Chris and Elaine Havens to Riven Rock Ranch resort began with childhood farm and ranch backgrounds. During Chris's corporate career, he and Elaine, an artist, enjoyed being guests in diverse worldwide travel accommodations, but their greatest pleasure came from providing houseguests with first-rate accommodations, entertainment, and food in their "personal resort" home. Perhaps someday, somewhere, when the timing was right, the place unique, and the community a perfect fit, they would own a resort.
Transferred to San Antonio in 1996, the Havens savored the colorful city and fell in love with the surrounding pastoral Texas Hill Country, where they discovered a throwback to the rural America they cherish. In 2002, the Havens someday and somewhere came into alignment at a historic ranch in a magnificent setting near Comfort, Texas. Since then, the property has undergone a historically-aware transformation into a luxurious yet comfortable resort, where the Havens still enjoy providing the royal treatment for their guests.
Riven Rock Ranch is a 200 plus-acre working farm and ranch in Kerr County, deep in the heart of Texas Hill Country. Still true to its 1800s agrarian origins, it has come a long way to meet the needs of today's multi-faceted sojourner. Wood-burning cook stoves have given way to gourmet ranges, outdoor gas grills, and an outdoor wood-fired oven for use in gathering and social events.
The ranch has also remained true to its primeval origins while keeping up with today's world. Plentiful natural habitat is still home to abundant deer and small creature wildlife, but some acreage is devoted to cultivation. There are over 100 acres dedicated to hay production. Produce from organic vegetable gardens, currently under construction, will be available to culinary guests. A vineyard is being planned to supply grapes for a future winery. Flower gardens will produce in-season flower arrangements, and a greenhouse will provide replacement plants for the ranch's extensive landscaping. The Guadalupe River, always life-giving, now also provides irrigation, recreation, and an idyllic setting for events.
Dining options are many at Riven Rock Ranch. The cooking inclined guest who is occupying an entire cottage has the use of a fully equipped gourmet kitchen and an outdoor gas barbecue grill. Open since August 2009, The Terrace Grill, our on-site restaurant, has earned a reputation as a unique dining destination. Riven Rock Ranch has created a wonderful open-air restaurant nestled in a native plant garden, complete with a koi pond and meandering stream. Despite the beautiful setting, the real standout is the exceptional food prepared by Chef Joseph Brantley. Cooked in a wood-fired oven and on a wood fired grill, The Terrace Grill features the freshest local ingredients possible. Game meats, an ever-changing fish special from the Texas Gulf and locally farmed produce are the stars of the menu. Have a sweet tooth? Chef Brantley prepares all of the desserts from scratch. The restaurant is open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, serving lunch from 11:30 am until 2:30pm and dinner from 5:30pm to 9:00pm. La Cocina, equipped with a unique outdoor wood fire oven and overlooking the lush Guadalupe River Valley and surrounding farmland is available for special events and dinners.
Many idyllic scenes and plenty of breathing room set the perfect stage for your private function at Riven Rock Ranch. The great outdoors of beautiful hilltop and riverside terraces meets the great indoors of delightful, expandable meeting/sleeping space for groups of as many as thirty, and there is a spacious meeting hall for larger gatherings.
Whether your special event is a corporate meeting, retreat, wedding, or family gathering, Riven Rock Ranch resort magic will work for its success. This home-away-from-home lends itself especially well to family and friendship get-togethers, where the clan can celebrate an occasion, or simply enjoy the pleasure of fellowship.
The Terrace Grill at Riven Rock Ranch has been opened for business since August the 28th, 2009. We serve lunch from 11:30-2:30 & dinner from 5:30-9:00 on Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays to anyone who would like to come, including guests who are staying here at the ranch. Located in our beautiful native plant garden center, The Terrace Grill is complete with Koi pond & waterfall as well as a stream flowing next to the dining area. This lovely outdoor venue is covered for shade & well fanned for constant breeze in the summer, and has clear plastic roll downs and heaters which provide complete warmth in the winter. The Terrace Grill features an outdoor wood burning oven and grill for cooking tasty dishes for dinner as well as lunch time selections including gourmet pizzas.
This fun outdoor culinary experience enables diners to watch the process & smell the delectable aromas while surrounded by the beautiful native plant garden center.
Our Menu is varied and we offer daily specials to entice as well as delicious desserts made by Chef Joseph on site. The menu is subject to change without notice.

All the many recreational activities for which the Texas Hill Country is famous-and then some-are available on or near Riven Rock Ranch. Activities are geared to individual pace preference ranging from laid back to revved up; couples with dissimilar pace levels can readily optimize individual quality time. Sit on the porch, or ride 'em high horseback (available on a nearby ranch). Watch the wildlife nonchalantly stroll by or closely encounter the land and livestock of a working ranch and farm. In the Spring you are likely to witness the birth of a calf. If you bring a tube you can relax while you float the Guadalupe River, or bring a canoe and pretend you are an Indian and paddle the river. Once you get going, you may also choose to hike, bike, bird watch, fish or swim in the river or in our beautiful swimming pool.
Riven Rock Ranch serves as an ideal home base for groups who like to combine strenuous days with luxurious nights. Your hosts will help make arrangements for these activities including bicycle, tube or canoe rental. Hunting at nearby ranches also can be arranged. The ranch is strategically located for sightseeing excursions in the scenic surrounding countryside, to nearby historic San Antonio, city with a year-round fiesta fixation, and to Fredericksburg, Boerne and Comfort, old German towns with delightful strolling, shopping and festivals.

Linux for Embedded Systems
Fujitec is a global manufacturer and provider of a complete range of elevators, escalators and other vertical transportation equipment. Nearly all of our products use embedded computers in one form or other. To see the implications, a few features of the elevator business to note are:
The lifetime of the product is very long, on the order of 20 years or more.
Safety and availability of elevator service is a deciding factor for the users, especially for medium to high-rise buildings.
Continuous service and maintenance during the full life cycle is vital; usually, it is even required by law.
To meet the requirements of long term, disruption-free service and maintainability for embedded computers, we have recently started to investigate the possibility of using the freely available Linux OS and the GNU utilities.
We have in the past shipped several products using Linux. We will describe here only one of them—a monitoring display for group controllers (see Figure 1).
Figure 1. Controller Monitoring Display
Another application, a user-interface system for editing scrolling messages in elevator cars, is shown in Figure 2, but we do not have space to introduce it in detail. (Notice the Japanese characters—Linux works fine in Japan, too.)
Figure 2. Elevator User Interface
To put things into perspective, we need a few facts about elevators. If a building has more than 2 or 3 elevators, they are usually working in groups sharing the passenger traffic. A group of elevators is connected to a "Supervisory Group Controller", which shares the service of each elevator among users while attempting to give each user the illusion that he/she has a personal elevator.
The modern elevator group controller is rather sophisticated; it has to run difficult, optimal-scheduling algorithms in real time. The latest Fujitec models use neural networks for on-line learning and optimization. Without proper tools, the support personnel who perform installation and testing tasks wouldn't understand what is happening with the elevator group.
For maintenance checks, upgrades and occasional troubleshooting, the GSP (Group Supervisory Panel) has a graphical display showing the status of the elevators. This monitoring display was the target of our first Linux application.
Figure 1 shows the graphic screen of the monitor display. Information for each elevator, such as the present floor, traveling direction, door status, registered calls, etc. is indicated by graphic symbols. This screen design has evolved over several years, and it is now familiar to our technical and maintenance personnel.
We built most of the original monitoring display system with custom-designed components:
A custom graphic board with custom graphics software
Control software common with our sequence-controller, CPU board
Serial interface with our proprietary protocol to communicate with the group controller
A multiscan VGA display (the only commercial part)
These components were chosen to give us the following advantages:
Stand-alone operation in the elevator, machine-room environment
Real-time response
Long-term supply and maintenance
Low cost
Even though we saw several problems with our custom-designed approach and wanted to move to an established, popular platform, until recently it was not feasible.
For the hardware, our first choice would have been the IBM- compatible PC, perhaps in the form of PC/104 cards. However, the dominant commercial OS (first DOS, then Windows), was unsuitable for many reasons. It is neither real-time capable nor reliable, and there is no chance that a particular release could have long-term support from its vendors.
Although there were many alternatives, such as the excellent Lynx OS, none of them satisfied all of our requirements, especially the long-term stability and availability criteria.
With the appearance of Linux, all this has changed.
Over the past few years, several engineers at Fujitec became familiar with Linux. Although we started it as a hobby, gradually the wider applicability of Linux became clear to us.
Our motivation for embracing Linux for product development has several roots:
The availability of the complete source tree of the system, without any restrictions on use, distribution or revisions, is vitally important to us. It can ensure that we will have some way of maintaining our systems at a site 5, 10, 15, ... years from now. If we wanted to guarantee the same with a commercial system, it could easily become a nightmare. We could imagine the vendor in 2010 (if still in business) just staring at us with mouth agape, when we ask them about bug fixes for their 1997 system. However, when we have the source, maintenance becomes "difficult" instead of "impossible", just as with in-house, custom-made systems.
An added bonus is the freedom from administration of a royalty-based, license system for some proprietary OS; not to mention the savings on the license fee.
We have been using Unix for system development for many years. After some rather frustrating experiences with other systems on the PC platform, our developers were quite eager to get back to a Unix-like environment.
Even among Unix systems, Linux feels unique: it is light, fast, runs on almost any platform, contains the latest version of all free software and is now so visible that even non-computer people are starting to talk about it. It is a good feeling to be back in the mainstream again.
However, not everything is rosy. Since Linux is essentially Unix, a few things had to be fixed before we could deploy it in an embedded controller.
Ideally, we would like to use a ROM-based system, such as the one described in the article "Booting Linux from EPROM" by D. Bennett, Linux Journal, January, 1997. In our case, however, we needed X11, Tcl/Tk, libraries, fonts, etc., so we were forced to use a hard disk-based system. This means that we have to think about disk-buffer flushing, cleanup and recovery after messy shutdowns, etc.
Linux is not a "hard" real-time system as it stands, although people are already working on real-time patches. (See "Introducing Real-Time Linux", M. Barabanov and V. Yodaiken, Linux Journal, February 1997.) For our current application, this was not directly a problem, but we would need guaranteed response time if we wanted Linux to control an elevator car.
Installation must be made foolproof, especially for re-installation or upgrades. We have found that our customized procedure works, but it still needs to be improved.

Personalize this children's ID bracelet with engraving along the polished sterling silver surface.
Bracelet Information

Clasp: | Lobster claw clasp |
Chain length: | |
Length: | 1 inch |
Width: | 1/4 inch |
Yes |
I bought this bracelet for my first grandson. I had his name engraved on it and it is just precious! I will end up having links removed as this will be used as a "baby" bracelet vs. a small child that might wear a 6 1/2 in. length.
I was very pleased with my daughter's bracelet. It looked excately like the photo on the website. She likes her bracelet too.
I bought this bracelet for my daughter who was turning 13. I got it monogramed. It fit her perfectly. It's light weight but not too delicate. She loves it but would have preferred if I had her name on it and not the monogram.
In terms of quality, beauty, and value - this bracelet has it all BUT I purchased this bracelet for an infant. The problem is that the bracelet size can not be adjusted. It will be a long time before she can wear it and that's upsetting.
I bought two of them, engraved, for my cousin's newborn twins. I opened when I received them and thought they were adorable and although I haven't had a chance to give it to her yet, I am sure she'll like them.

text: I woke up at 3am today but didn't want to get out of bed. By 3:30am I had to go to the bathroom bad but didn't want to wake Casper up so I snuck out of my bed on the opposite side of the bed from where he sleeps in his own bed on the floor. I did a bunch of ninja manuevers and worked/felt my way to the bathroom in the dark. I closed the bathroom door so Casper wouldn't be awakened when I turned on the bathroom light. I lifted the lid to the toilet and started to take a leak. Then I noticed Casper sitting on the floor behind me! When I finished, I had to go let him outside... just what I was trying to avoid in the first place! He's got some great ninja moves of his own.

California Gov. Brown Being Treated For Prostate Cancer
California Gov. Jerry Brown is receiving radiation therapy for prostate cancer, which his physician says was caught at an "early stage." The governor's office announced the news today, adding that Brown's work schedule has not been disrupted.
"The prognosis is excellent, and there are not expected to be any significant side effects," the governor's office quoted UCSF oncologist Dr. Eric Small as saying. Calling the cancer "localized," Small said that Brown is undergoing a short course of radiation therapy.
Brown is expected to undergo treatment through early January.
As member station KQED's News Fix blog reports, Brown, 74, had a cancerous growth removed from his nose in 2011.

WEST LIBERTY — The Morgan County running game was able to control the clock as well as generate some big plays Friday as the Cougars knocked off Middlesboro 28-6.
Three different backs — Kody Thornsberry, Walker Crase and Jordan Whitt — surpassed the 100-yard mark for Morgan County with Thornsberry and Crase scoring two touchdowns apiece in the game.
"They've got a good football team. A lot of people don't understand, that group right there played in the middle school state championship game a few years ago," Middlesboro coach Randy Frazier said of the Cougars.
Yellow Jacket sophomore quarterback Major Edwards was 10-of-19 passing for 206 yards and accounted for the Middlesboro TD with a three-yard sneak in the third quarter. But he was sacked six times in the game and intercepted twice in the fourth quarter.
"We knew coming into the ballgame that they ran that 3-3 stack and they brought everybody. Our young kids had trouble picking it up, I thought they picked it up better in the second half," Frazier said.
Jake Brock had two catches for 82 yards, Zach Riddle three for 76 and Austin Poindexter three for 18 in the game. The Jacket ground attack was led by Seth Barton's 54 yards on nine carries while Parker Uhl added 32 yards on seven runs.
Barton snapped off a 17-yard run on the opening possession of the game, but Edwards was sacked twice and Middlesboro had to punt the ball away.
The Cougars then went 55 yards on nine plays with Thornsberry scoring from six yards out. Crase ran in the conversion and Morgan County led 8-0 with 4:30 to play in the first quarter.
Following an exchange of possessions, Brock took a swing pass from Edwards and rumbled for a 49-yard gain down to the Cougar 31. But the Jackets were hit with back-to-back 10-yard losses, one on a running play the other on another sack, as they ultimately turned the ball over on downs at the 29.
Crase broke a 47-yard run up the middle after getting hit in the backfield and three plays later he scored on a five-yard run. He added the two-point conversion and the Morgan County lead was 16-0 going into halftime.
The Cougars hurt the Jackets time and again with long runs after Middlesboro defenders failed to wrap up after getting to the ball carrier either at or behind the line of scrimmage. Those missed tackles and the sacks turned out to be difference in the game.
"We missed a tackle here and there and it's tough for young kids to play against an offense like that," Frazier added. "But we feel like we're going to get better from it and we're going to move on."
Middlesboro was victimized by the big play again in the third quarter as Whitt found a seam up the middle and galloped 30 yards. That set up a two-yard touchdown run from Crase and the Cougar lead was 22-0 with 5:58 remaining in the third quarter.
The Jackets, who had given up five sacks in the first half, adjusted their blocking scheme a bit and started finding success through the air.
After a 13-yard run from Uhl, Edwards hit Poindexter for 12 yards and another first down. After a mysterious chop block call went against Middlesboro, Edwards found Riddle on wide receiver screen to the right. Riddle cut the play back across the field and picked up big blocks from Barton and Donnie Foister as he made his way to the left sideline and down the field for a 40-yard gain to the Morgan County 27.
The Jackets overcame a holding penalty as Brock made a sensational diving catch on a deep ball for 33-yards. Edwards ran it in from three yards out on the very next play and it was 22-6 at the 3:46 mark of the third.
Whitt broke another long run and a defensive offsides penalty gave the Cougars a 1st & goal at the MHS 10. But the Jacket defense came through with a stand. Two runs gained a net of zero yards and after an incompletion, they threw Thornsberry for a three-yard loss on a swing pass.
Middlesboro looked to be driving their way back into the game as they marched from their own 13 all the way down to the Morgan County 16. Edwards hit Barton for 23 yards, Uhl for seven and Riddle for first downs of 24 and 12 yards along the way. After another sack he sailed a pass over the middle and Zach Bartley intercepted it at the two-yard line with 6:31 to play.
Whitt found a crease and went for a 70-yard gain and Thornsberry capped a 98-yard drive with a 23-yard run on a pitch around the right side to set the final at 28-6.
"We got better as the game went on. We felt like we had a shot there at the end to make it a one-score game with about seven minutes left. Then they get the ball and they break it and then they score," Frazier said. "They've got a really good football team and we're not taking anything away from them, but we feel like we could have played a lot better.
"Our kid realize they can play better. It's just a matter of bouncing back and going out next week and getting a win."
Bartley came up with another interception to end the final Middlesboro drive and Morgan County ran out the clock.
The Cougars finished with 389 yards on 46 carries. Whitt led the way with 154 yards on nine runs, Thornsberry added 116 on 17 carries and Crase ran it 14 times for 109 yards.
Morgan County (5-0) hosts Jackson County next Friday while Middlesboro (2-3) visits Shelby Valley.

Any of you guys ever find bugs before anyone else does? Like stumble across something before you read about it in a magazine or on the web?
A few I've found for Destroy all humans:
On the Rockwell level tractor the Ferris wheel with your ship, then knock it into buildings. If you do it right you can flip it onto the top of the ship and it will push you through the ground, then you can fly around down there. You can also do this with the Washington monument in the Capital City level.
The game crashes if you repeatedly stack vehicles between two tight buildings, like make a wall out of them, then take one Majestic car and throw it through them, like you're bolwing. Do it about twenty times.
The Robot general boss can be beaten by luring him into the hangar, where his own missiles kill him in a few seconds.
Stack cars in a pile over the landing spot, then land on top of them. Occasionally the cars will either pop through the saucer or you will beam down inside of the car and get stuck there.
You can occasionally get stuck inside of a tank by placing it on a gernade the running under it so it lands on top of you.
The final boss can be beaten easily by jumping over the surrounding fence and shooting her. She can't shoot through the fence. It's a cakewalk.
You can fire sonic booms at tanks and cars, then catch them on top of the saucer when they fly up into the air. This one is really hard to do.
Finally, on the Mr. Crypto Goes to Capital city mission, jump over the fence at the Octagon and trigger the cutscene , then go back to the gate and trigger the cutscene there. That resets the first cutscene, which you can watch again.
Fun stuff.
