MAULE VALLEY, Chile —
Sven Bruchfeld doesn't mind if you don't like his wine, as long as some people love it.
He's part of a bold new wave of independent vintners who are challenging Chile's reputation for producing oceans of agreeable but predictable wines. Their quirky, small-batch harvests are capturing the attention of wine connoisseurs at home and abroad.
"We need wines that are polemical, that are not liked by everyone, that generate controversy and spark conversations," said Bruchfeld, a Chilean of German ancestry who is owner and chief winemaker at the Polkura winery.
The independents have broken away from Chile's industrial wine culture to lovingly squeeze out small lots of wines, usually using organic, even spiritually tinged theories of winemaking.
In Alvaro Espinoza's vineyard in the Maipo Valley south of Santiago, a horse plows along rows of grapevines in the shadow of the Andes mountains while a solar panel powers the irrigation. In the Maule Valley farther south, Pilar Miranda also farms with horses and when her wine is ready for bottling, she punches the corks in by hand.
"This new generation is much more conscious about environmental problems and more committed to healthy, sustainable agriculture ... and also for the production of wines that have a stronger connection to the Earth," said Espinoza, whose Antiyal wines regularly break into the 90s in respected ratings.
"That's why I think this new generation of winemakers and entrepreneurs is going to change Chile's image globally."
Chile has been making wine since the mid-1500s, when Spanish settlers brought the first vines to the coast-hugging nation. And it has grown into the world's No. 7 wine producer, with an output of nearly 1.3 billion liters last year. About 480 million liters of bottled wine were exported.
While major producers such as Concha y Toro also release batches of world-class wines, critics have long complained that Chilean wine overall was too industrial and fixated on volume.
"It had quality but lacked character, and there was no space for the small winemaker," said Patricio Tapia, Chile's most respected wine writer.
But in the past decade "a new generation has been born, and Espinoza was the precursor," said Tapia, author of the "Descorchados" wine guide.
The 52-year-old Espinoza who apprenticed at wineries abroad as well as in Chile was among the first to embrace the "biodynamic wine" movement that was taking root in Europe and the United States.
Based on the writings of Austrian philosopher Rudolf Steiner, it forbids artificial pesticides, herbicides and fertilizers and it sees farms as living organisms affected by the cycles of the moon and planetary alignment, as well as seasons.
Like Espinoza, most of the new vintners emerged from the country's old wine industry, either working at corporate winemakers or studying enology at local universities.
But some have also come from abroad: an Italian count, a former Canadian ski coach and a Swiss lawyer are among the 18-member Chile-based Movement of Independent Vintners.
The artisanal producers have pounced on long-abandoned vines or set up shop in forgotten wine zones, while others have experimented with new combinations of grapes, regions, temperatures and terrains.
In the quest for a more interesting wine, they've experimented in extreme places: from the icy south to northern areas in the heart of the Atacama desert. The result has been a rich mosaic of styles.
They often use rustic but proven methods such as manual corking and egg-shaped concrete vats and earthenware pots for fermentation.
"For us it's about getting back to our roots to make some great juice," said Miranda, 40, who started making wines in the garage with her ski-coach Canadian husband and created the whimsically named Garage Wine Co.
The couple's mountain-grown cabernet blend and cabernet Franc and a dry-farmed, single varietal Carignan are mostly sold in boutique wine shops in San Francisco, New York and London for $20 to $30 a bottle. "I'm going to call them hipster shops," said her husband, Derek Mossman, who began the company in his garage. "We don't compete with the big players from Chile, but rather with the independent offerings from the south of France, Spain, Italy and California."
In the Colchagua Valley, Polkura focuses on syrah grapes to produce 2,000 cases a year. Its name means yellow stone in the native Mapudungun tongue and comes from the yellow granite spread in the area's clay soils. Polkura's winemakers say the decomposed granite "gives the wine minerality and elegance, while the clay provides body and structure."
Its 2008 syrah made it into the Top 100 list for both Wine Spectator and Decanter magazines. And its Block g+i won the Southern Hemisphere's best syrah in Australia's "Five Nations Wine Challenge."
Prestigious mainstream vineyards such as Lapostolle, owned by the heirs to the Grand Marnier liquor fortune, also have embraced biodynamics. Its Clos Apalta, a blend of carmenere, merlot and cabernet sauvignon, was named Wine Spectator's wine of the year for 2008.
"More people are experimenting, searching for new frontiers and new techniques," said Andrea Leon, Lapostolle's winemaker. The results "express a place of origin and a particular vision of wine that doesn't have to be the same."
For Peter Richards, author of "The Wines of Chile," ''It's not an overstatement to say that the very future of Chilean wine is being decided right now."
"Chile can stay in a dependable, reliable but slightly unexciting mode, or it can choose to spread its wings and really try to discover its potential for fine wine," said Richards, one of the world's 314 certified "masters of wine."
"It's very exciting to see the beginnings of this revolution. The flame is still small but it continues to grow. It just needs more fanning."

First Lady Michelle Obama shows off her dance moves
Thursday, February 28, 2013
We had so much fun at First Lady Michelle Obama's rally to launch her new Let's Move! Active Schools campaign. Not only did she speak about inspiring kids, parents and educators to get moving, she joined athletes, trainers and CPS students on stage for a quick work out.
That workout included some classic dance moves. "Mom moves" if you must.

New Sculpt
Monday, October 18, 2010
Pele (finally!)
After wrestling with different ideas to light this sculpture, after attempting a couple of sculpted heads, I decided that this project couldn't be done proper justice with sculpii. If I used UV light to make it glow I couldn't have gotten the nice, rich reds (UV light makes reds go pink) and if I used internal LEDs to light it then I'd never have gotten an even glow, nor could I light delicate things like fingers or arms. I'd been meaning to learn Zbrush anyway, so this project provided a great opportunity to do so. It's been a major battle, taking far longer than a physical sculpture would have taken me - and these renders are a product of 6 different software packages (Zbrush, Maya, Modo, Photoshop, Painter and UVLayout). Yowza. The renders have very little doctoring in photoshop, mostly I used Painter and Photoshop for creating and applying the textures you see on the model.

Voting Closed
We have our Winner! Thanks again for all of you artists and your entries - it was a close race and there's a good chance I'll end up doing more than one of these designs. but first up, I get to do Brittney Lee's - It will likely be a few months before I'll have it ready, due in part to the fact that the technical challenges of this piece will be very large. But they should be interesting to work out - I'm debating right now whether or not I want to try to light her internally or externally with UV lights pointed at phosphorescent red\orange clay. Externally gives me a more even\smooth spread of the glow, while internally lighting gives me a more vibrant\accurate color of glow, though I'll have hot spots where the leds are seated. Hmm.
Monday, April 19, 2010
So here is my latest sculpt - no LEDs, but there is a little bit of slime and drool, so that makes up for it... well, almost it does.
Sorry mom, this one's a bit violent for me, I know. Here's the clip from the story (Book 2, Prometheus Fire)
"Asharadel wrenched her bow free from the hard packed soil. The carved steel of the blades glinted in the blazing sunlight, one of them wet with the Tamarak's violet blood. The creature's bulky body lay a few yards away, the mass of limbs and spikes finally still with death. The terror of the battle, the adrenaline, the thrill of the hunt all slowly drained from her, leaving her body weary and exhausted. But the beast was dead, and that realization suddenly burned bright within her. She had done it, and she lived.
Elder Aoselan still stood on the stony outcropping twenty yards away, flowing robes a bleached bone-gray that seemed to glow in the sunlight. The shadow of his hood hid his expression, and Asharadel could not see if he was pleased or angered that she had done what none said she could. Slowly the man raised his staff, signaling the final form of the ceremony.
Asharadel strode to the body, grasping the Tamarak's severed head by the scruff of the neck with her gauntleted hand. Every muscle in her body ached from the long hunt, and the many scars crisscrossing her plague-ravaged arm burned with the exertion of hefting the thing. She lifted the trophy, the mark of her right to stand among the Hunters, forcing her expression to remain calm as she regarded Elder Aoselan. This was her right, her heritage.
For a moment the Elder regarded her from beneath the shadows of his hood. Finally, wordlessly, he lowered his staff, bowing his head just enough for the light to brush across his brow. It was finished."
Please continue to submit your designs! I'm excited by what I've received so far. To those of you who have sent me your work, thank you so much! I will post the different designs and open it up for voting by the beginning of may.

Silvester and the Cupcake
So - All you folks who read my blog (if any of you are out there) I want to know what story this sculpture inspires for you when you see it. Please comment and tell me why you think he's crying, and what the cupcake has to do with anything. So far I've gotten a few delightful ideas from people who have seen it in person, and I'm curious what everyone here might come up with. Perhaps when I've gotten a few responses I'll write what I had in mind when I drew him up.

New Elrae Shots
Sunday, September 20, 2009
Zak - finished
So, despite this guy turning out alright, I'm still very very frustrated that he doesn't match the original design very well. If you go to my painting blog, you'll see the original design - which to me is much more appealing than the final sculpture. The legs ended up way too stumpy, and the head just too big and not shaped quite right. The sculpture is cute, but it just could have been better had I followed the design better. This is a frustration I've had time and time again - almost with every single sculpture. Guess I'm doing something wrong.

latest work on Elrae
Monday, May 11, 2009
Random Sculpt
This is my latest - just a random sculpt I did while I was waiting for parts from Jim for the Elrae sculpt. I wanted to try doing just normal looking clothes for once - it turned out that T-shirts are incredibly hard. Also I'd been wanting to try glasses- and these ones were really tricky. The lenses are cut out from a 2 liter soda bottle :)

Sculpt of Ryan Woodward's 'Soldier'
here's a quick one I did with Casteline. (since my sculpture studio is in my bedroom I haven't been able to bring myself to use CM-50. The smell of sulfur permeating your room when you're trying to sleep at night isn't pleasant.) The design is Ryan Woodward's: he taught my character design class back at BYU, and is an amazing artist. You can see more of his work on www.ryanwoodwardart.com

The performance of Ziad Tabet's Jabcap Event Driven Fund has been a bright spot in a difficult few months for Philippe Jabre's $6 billion Geneva-based firm
The fund – a carve-out of Tabet's event-driven sub-portfolio within Jabre's flagship multi-strategy offering – is annualising at around 17.5% after seven months of trading.

Tabet has run the event-driven component of the firm's flagship JabCap Multi Strategy Fund since its debut in early 2007. His performance has been impressive, even before launching the standalone...

Members of The Connor Group team are not of the apartment industry. They're talented, driven people who just happen to work in the apartment industry.
Our associates come from an array of backgrounds. We employ former coaches and entrepreneurs, former editors and retail managers — just to name a few. Though their backgrounds vary greatly, they all share a few common traits.
They are high achievers with strong track records of success. They are dynamic leaders and come-hell-or-highwater producers. They are accountable for themselves and others. What they are not, are industry insiders. And that is by design.
We do not hire people who have worked in the industry before. Our associates don't know the industry standards. They have no knowledge about what has been deemed impossible by others in the business. We like that. Because we don't deal in industry standards, or impossibilities for that matter. What we do — as recruiters, trainers and leaders — is find the best and brightest individuals and teach them The Connor Group way of doing things.
We take proven people and place them into our proven systems.
The Connor Group owns and operates approximately 17,000 high-quality apartment units in six markets: Columbus, Cincinnati, Dayton, Dallas, Atlanta, Raleigh. Since being founded in 1991, we have grown from $0 to more than $1.3 billion in assets.

As part of its "Mobility for All" campaign, Renault has introduced the first front passenger swivel seat by a European OEM.

Illustration by Christopher Silas Neal When Angela's husband, Mike, passed away, he left her with wonderful memories, a considerable fortune and a gorgeously decorated mansion. Angela had personally designed the interiors with objects she'd found while traveling around the world. But with Mike gone, the massive, empty house felt like a relic of a bygone era. So Angela moved into a smaller home and started decorating again, but this time she couldn't seem to get it right—in her eyes, anyway.
No sooner had she realized one vision than she'd launch into another and begin anew, rearranging the furniture, replacing art and swapping out the drapes. Angela's friends, who kept being invited over to see the ever-changing decor, insisted each time that the place was perfect, hoping that their praise would help her take a sorely needed break. Not a chance. Angela had become a compulsive decorator, and her anxious energy prevented her from stepping back and actually enjoying the fruits of her labor. This unquenchable need to tinker can happen to any of us, whether we live in a mansion or a studio apartment. But the drive to make everything beautiful—taken too far—creates disharmony. If you can't rest easy with the look and feel of your home, if you fear that you've stopped making it better but can't stop making it different, it's time to put yourself—and your house—back into balance with these three steps. Step 1: Plan Your End Game The momentum of decorating can have a hypnotic effect that keeps people like Angela fussing long after a room is finished. It's easy to get caught up in this loop when you don't set an end point before you begin. Envisioning a state of completion helps you know when it's time to stop. Do this in two dimensions, not three. Find pictures of rooms that have the look you want. Draw a floor plan or sketches of the finished space. Don't worry about your artistic ability; all you're doing is imprinting a mental model of "doneness." When your 3-D space matches your 2-D photos and drawings, you'll feel a sense of resonance. It will be visually clear that the room will look less like your goal—not more—if you continue to decorate. From the Summer 2008 issue of O, The Oprah Magazine

The reason I cannot put 4 stars is becuase of the accessiblity of the Bear's Den. The hours can be very inconvient for students with late classes or classes all afternoon.

Read MoreIt depends on the meal. They offer a variety in buffet style. The school has designated meal times and those are the best times to go and eat, but they have certain things that are offered all day. Additionally, the school offers to-go meals which you can get and take back to your room to eat in there or later on.

The cafeteria has a decent variety of food and good staff. Every day pizza, burgers, wraps/subs, and a salad bar are available, while other entrees, soups, and desserts change daily. The eating area is large and never gets overcrowded. If you are in a hurry, you can use one meal to get a to-go bag, which included a drink, entree, and two sides or a side and dessert. There's also Jazzman's Cafe, where students can buy coffee and treats.

I like the smoky flavor of turkey bacon, the crunch of broccoli. I also like to mix my cheese up. I like the combination of my home made pecorino, cheddar, parmesan & gruyere. Sometime when I feel like getting fancy I use lobster or when I'm in the mood of going vagetarian I put in some mix mushroom for more protein. — ima.purnomo |

"It is not enough that the party invoking the power of the court have a keen interest in the issue," Chief Justice John Roberts Jr. wrote, adding that "we have no authority to decide this case on the merits."
The decision eliminates a 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruling and leaves intact a trial judge's order blocking Proposition 8 from taking effect. Typically, it takes about 25 days for a Supreme Court ruling to filter down to the lower courts, though advocates hope it will happen sooner.
"We're elated," Berkeley, Calif., resident Kris Perry -- one of the individuals who challenged Proposition 8 -- said at a news conference. "Now our children will finally be in a family where their parents are married."
Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act declares that, for the purposes of providing federal benefits, marriage is "only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife" and a spouse is only a "person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife."
The definition is important because it determines eligibility for a host of federal rights, benefits and privileges.
The Government Accountability Office has identified more than 1,100 areas of federal law in which marriage matters, ranging from tax and welfare benefits to employment and immigration. Same-sex military couples, for instance, are denied housing, health insurance and disability benefits, and are ineligible for burial alongside their spouses in national cemeteries.
"The statute is invalid, for no legitimate purpose overcomes the purpose and effect to disparage and injure those whom the state, through its marriage laws, sought to protect in personhood and dignity," Kennedy wrote.
Twelve states -- 13, including California -- and the District of Columbia recognize same-sex marriage, and a recent Pew Research Center survey found that 72 percent of those asked thought that legal recognition of gay marriage was inevitable.

There are already over 1,000 events already planned to take place across the country during National Apprenticeship Week 2014.
Hundreds of employers are now behind traineeships and the government is urging even more to get involved.
The Skills Funding Agency has moved its main web presence to GOV.UK.
We fund skills training for further education (FE) in England. We support over 1,000 colleges, private training organisations, and employers with more than £4 billion of funding each year.
SFA is an executive agency of the Department for Business, Innovation & Skills.
The government aims to make sure that further education provides the skilled workforce employers need and helps individuals reach their full potential. Read more

Type | Private |
Industry | Fast casual restaurants |
Founded | Sauk City, Wisconsin, U.S. (1984) |
Headquarters | Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin |
Key people | Craig Culver, CEO Lea Culver, Co-Founder Phil Keiser, President and COO Joe Koss, CFO |
Products | Frozen custard, Butterburgers |
Website | www.culvers.com |
Culver Franchising System, Inc. is a privately owned and operated fast casual restaurant chain that operates primarily in the Midwestern United States. The first Culver's opened in 1984 in Sauk City, Wisconsin. The chain now has 501 restaurants across the United States.[1]
In 1984, Sauk City restaurateur George Culver purchased the A&W on Phillips Boulevard (U.S. Highway 12) and began renovating it.[2] On July 18, 1984, along with wife Ruth, son Craig, and daughter-in-law Lea, he opened the first Culver's Frozen Custard and ButterBurgers.
In 1987, the Culvers were approached about franchising a restaurant in nearby Richland Center. The Culvers agreed, granting the franchisee a loose licensing agreement, charging no fees or royalties. Because the franchisee had invested very little of his own money, it was a simple matter for him to walk away a year later when he decided he no longer wanted to be in the restaurant business.
As a result of this experience, the Culvers established a set of standard franchising procedures that form the basis for those currently used by Culver Franchising System, Inc. Three years later, they tried again in Baraboo and business quickly doubled. Soon after, the increased recognition that the second store earned this small-town chain prompted expansion into the Madison and Milwaukee areas. At the end of 2011, 445 Culver's restaurants were open in 19 states.
As of 1993, Culver's was still a small, local chain, with only 14 restaurants across southern Wisconsin. Culver's first restaurants outside the state were opened in Buffalo, Minnesota in September 1995, Roscoe Illinois in December 1995, and Dubuque, Iowa, in November 1996. In February 1997 the company opened the first Culver's in Texas.
Beyond the Midwest[edit]
The current franchising strategy is one of contiguous growth at a pace of about 40 new stores per year. The chain expanded into Colorado Springs, Colorado, Cheyenne and Wyoming in 2005, followed by an opening in Bowling Green, Kentucky in July 2006. Culver's shifted its attention to developing markets beyond the Midwest.
Culver's has expanded to the Phoenix metropolitan area.[3] As of August 2012, Arizona had 13 locations. Culver's also opened in South Carolina in 2012.
In 2011, Culver's expanded into Utah, when Kristin and Tom Davis of Wisconsin relocated to Utah and opened a 100-seat Culver's franchise in Midvale. The couple signed a development agreement for four locations in the southern half of Salt Lake County.[4]
Future expansion[edit]
The Metro-98 prototype, developed in 2006 and first constructed in Fort Dodge, is much more compact than the traditional 120-seater commonly built through much of Culver's expansion. While the Metro-98 has less seating to offer guests, it also reduces the amount of land needed for construction by around 20%.[5]
Venture into casual dining[edit]
Culver's Blue Spoon Cafe, opened its first store in Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin in 2000 as a soup-sandwich-salad restaurant as Blue Spoon Creamery Cafe.[6] The name Blue Spoon comes from the color of the spoons used at the Culver's fast food restaurants.[7] A second store in Middleton, Wisconsin was open for two years, but closed in August 2010.[8]
Culver's menu features Culver's trademark ButterBurgers and frozen custard, (which is also sold in bulk). The rest of the menu runs the gamut from pork and fish, fried chicken to salads and specialty sundaes. The menu is divided into seven sections: sandwiches, sides, drinks, kids meals, dinners, salads, and desserts. Items are made to order and are served at table-side. All Culver's restaurants resemble one another. Culver's also features its own brand of root beer.
Culver's sponsors sports teams including the Wisconsin Badgers, Milwaukee Admirals, Iowa Hawkeyes, Minnesota Wild, and Chicago Cubs.

NYU Offers Classes On Occupy Movements
Occupiers are now in the history books
Looks like protestors in the Occupy movements across the world have picked a new place to take up space, the classroom.
NYU is offering two classes based on the the movements that originated in New York City's Zucotti Park, just two miles away from campus.
According to the class description the course titled "Cultures and Economies: Why Occupy Wall Street?" will focus on "economic inequality and financial greed" as well as "race, class, gender, sexuality, region, religion and other factors." The class will also feature guest speakers who actually took part in the protests.
"Occupy Wall Street has done us all the service of illuminating [the fact] that the economy operates within the framework of political, social and cultural conflicts, and not outside them," says Professor Lisa Duggan, who will be teaching the course.
Ironically NYU is one of the more expensive schools out there. So there is a good chance that the students taking this course will become a part of the 99% themselves. Experience is the best teacher, right?

Yes for sure, Griffin isn't 100% and they are still playing well.
My favorite facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Eli-M...51547878256599
Being banned is like going to a correctional facility, it doesn't correct anything, in fact, it makes you worse
Wonder if Bill Simmons still predicts no playoffs with his 45 wins at best, bold prediction?? He shredded the bench additions but the Clippers have been the best bench in the NBA this year and are still short players.
No... Chris Paul and Jamal Crawford are there best players.
For those that say No explain why? Paul can take over series, he has a deep bench and Griffin is a solid Number 2 option.
My favorite facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Eli-M...51547878256599
I mean, seriously, why did they trade Kaman for CP3? You never trade big for small! They would be dominating the NBA if they had Kaman playing next to Griffen! Not to mention they threw in Eric Gordon for CP3 who is injury prone. Like, wtf?
Seriously though, yeah, they have the personal to win it all. CP3 is the most valuable player in the league though. It all hinges on him and his health.

I disagree, Id say
My favorite facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Eli-M...51547878256599
I think Crawford is a brilliant fit and a great signing but Bledsoe can dominate the game defensively, on the boards, with passing AND still give you 15 points any given night. Crawford may score 25 and hit clutch shots but won't do much else which is why as an overall impact I got Bledsoe higher. I respect your opinion though man.
My favorite facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Eli-M...51547878256599
The talent is certainly there, so I would say yes.
Yea, but they are near the back end of the group we call contenders.
Just wondering... who do you think has been better than the Clippers so far? I'm not saying who has better record but rather who has been more convincingly good outside of maybe Miami and the Spurs? OKC, Lakers, Grizzlies, Celtics etc have all looked weaker than the Clippers so far.
Edit: Knicks have been very good too, forgot them.

text: UC Davis and Cornell University have the approval for testing genetically engineered grapes in California. In this case no application or environmental assessments were undertaken for the permits and there were just notifications given by the institutes. As far as the field tests are concerned there seems to be a veil of secrecy surrounding them therefore grape growers are not aware regarding the measures which need to be taken for protecting their vineyards from genetic contamination which could dent their image and even cause huge losses if the customers shun genetically engineered products. USDA was even criticized for not paying attention towards the field trials being undertaken and the U.S. Inspector General report said: USDA lacks basic information about the field test sites it approves and is responsible for monitoring, including where and how the crops are being grown, and what becomes of them at the end of the field test. It was only last month when a federal judge ruling stated that USDA cannot give approval for new GE field trials without environmental assessments but this wont be applicable to the grape field tests which have been already given permission. Such secrecy is expected to cause huge problems in the future for GE foods and if proper study and transparency is not ensured then genetically modified food will have a tough time ahead.
