1M Goes On Vacation (VIR, Primland, Blue Ridge Parkway) ... Picture Heavy
Last week my wife and I decided to take our 1M on a vacation trip through Southwest Virginia that included track time, luxury, and twisty roads. Here is a journal of our trip:
Warming up for the trip. Virginia International Raceway The first stop on our vacation trip was Virginia International Raceway to participate in the VIR Open House and Charity Laps. This event, that is usually held twice a year, is used to develop business and memberships for VIR while raising money for charity. This year's spring event benefited the Victory Junction Gang Camp. The Victory Junction Gang Camp provides a summer camp experience for terminally ill and chronically ill children who would not normally be able to attend a normal summer camp due to their condition. http://www.victoryjunction.org/ Prior to the event, my wife and I stayed at the VIR Villas located onsite at the track. The Villas are very luxurious and provide great access to view and participate in track events. VIR Villa kitchen/living room. VIR Villa bedroom. VIR Villa track view from porch. VIR Villa, track, and 1M. Money is raised at this event through the purchase of Charity Lap Sessions ($25 per session) and through Hot Lap Rides ($15 per hot lap). Charity Lap Sessions The Charity Lap Sessions consists of 20 minute parade laps between a pace car and a chase car at "highway speeds." All cars have to be "road safe" are allowed to have passengers. Helmets are also not required. The spring session of Charity Laps this year took place on the VIR Full Course. Having never been to a track day, my wife and I thought this would be the perfect experience to "test the waters" while raising money for a great cause. Also, all donations are tax deductible which makes this one of the cheapest ways to get on a track. For each session, a group of about 20 cars are staged in the "False Grid" while another group of cars completes its session: 1M staged in the false grid. Notice the 245/40/18 square winter tire setup (Alpin PA3s) and the wife reading her Kindle. Gathering for the session's driver's meeting to go over rules. The main rules include no passing, no stopping, not video taking (by the driver), and no holding back. Heading onto the track through Pit Lane with a last minute rules reminder. The experience was awesome! While advertised as parade laps at "highway speeds", I would say the pace car and the field drove at 8/10ths through most of the track. The 1M regularly hit an indicated 120 mph on the back straight (135 mph was our best) and 110 mph on the front straight! The car handled excellent in the high speed sections of the track including the Climbing Esses (90 mph) and the Roller Coaster. However, due to the square winter tires (only 245's in the rear), a trunk filled with three suitcases, a set of golf clubs, and numerous pairs of shoes, and my lack of experience I found the car quite challenging in the slower corners. The car was very eager to rotate and I estimate that the traction control light was flashing for over 50% of each lap including a couple of times at 100 mph during a 3-4 shift! While I was slow through the slow corners, the 1M closed ground like no other on the straights. I regularly left (or caught up with) some powerful vehicles including a Mustang GT and Pontiac G8 GXP on the straights. Also, I love the noise of the turbos singing at extended periods of full throttle. Flying down the Roller Coaster (photo originally posted by someone else on Smugmug). My wife and I ended up completing 5 Charity Lap Sessions and over 100 minutes on track. There was a wide variety of cars that participated in the sessions including everything from a Prius to a early 1970's 911 to a vintage stock car to a Ferrari 430 to a Cadillac Escalade (lol). There were a couple of spins throughout the day (by riced civics) and a couple of cars that broke down mid lap. Here are some of the M brethren that participated in the event (pictures originally posted by someone else in a Smugmug pool): Hot Lap Sessions In addition to the Charity Lap Sessions, a BMW M6 (from the Performance School), an Ariel Atom Spec Race Car, and a Porsche GT3 Cup Car offered ride along hot laps for a donation. My wife and I took hot laps in the M6 and Atom (unfortunately the GT3 hot laps started when we were about to leave). The M6 is brutally powerful and the BMW Performance driver was a rock star. He asked me what I drove and I told him that I drove a 1M. His response was "so you are one of the lucky ones." He then launched the M6 out of pit lane, drifted through the first several corners and then went full throttle up until the Oak Tree turn. We then hit an indicated 157 mph on the back straight and then absolutely flew down the Roller Coaster. Picture of my wife grinning after her hot lap in the M6. She thought it was awesome and then commented on how she like the blue brake calipers and disliked the carbon fiber interior (lol). Props to my wife for being so awesome to participate in this event (she is a pediatrician and has a friend who is a doctor who works at the camp). Ariel Atom Spec Race Car. Picture from my hot lap in the Atom. The G-forces in turns and during braking were just awesome. I also thought it was cool that the car quickly topped out at its top speed (~127 mph) on the back straight. The staff at the track indicated that the open wheels produce tons of drag that greatly limits the top speed. GT3 Cup Car hot lap (originally posted by someone else on Smugmug pool).

After our day at VIR, my wife and I set out for Primland, a resort located in Meadows of Dan, VA. The drive between VIR and Primland is approximately 90 miles. The last third of this trip features fantastic sweeping turns and stunning views as you climb to over 2,700 ft. in the Blue Ridge Mountains. In fact there are still 6 miles of curves with hardly a straight section between the North Gate and the Lodge at Primland. Primland North Gate. Along this route there are several warning signs for various wild life including bears and dear. We encountered wild turkeys: Primland is a small world class resort with phenomenal service that is truly in the middle of nowhere. There is basically no AT&T cell phone reception and the resort can only be reached in good weather. The resort started out as a private hunting retreat (still a heavy focus of the resort) and then developed into a world-class golf resort and spa. I am an avid golfer and who's wife doesn't love the spa? Approaching the Lodge at Primland. The Lodge at Primland. The first two nights that we stayed at Primland we rented a suite in one of the three Fairway Cottages (each cottage has two suites). The cottages are located a short distance from the Lodge (which also has rooms) and a golf cart is provided to travel back and forth. The fit, finish, and furnishings in these cottages are spectacular. The buildings are designed to be eco friendly and feature radiant floor heating and recycled wood. The bathroom in the cottage was actually about the size of our condo's living room. Here are some pictures: Primland Sparrow Cottage. 1M's parking place at the cottage. Sparrow East living room. Sparrow East kitchen. The second day we were at the resort, a surprise snow storm hit the mountain. I knew there was a reason I kept my winter tires on for a track event : 1M covered in snow. Luckily for us, it quickly warmed up the next day and I got to play golf the remainder of the time while on the resort. Mountain golf at its best – the Highlands Course is ranked #2 in VA and the #13 public course in the USA by Golf Digest. Primland also features fantastic and unique food! Here I am pondering my choice of afternoon snack among some of Primland's specialties - Truffle French Fries, Hush Puppies with Maple Sugar Butter (the best hush puppies ever), and Pig Candy – fried bacon that is then caramelized in maple syrup. Moonshine distilling is a huge (illegal) industry in this area of VA. The Lodge at Primland is actually located on Moonshine Drive. The bar features several different varieties of legal moonshine. Primland is also the only resort in North America that has its own observatory. Large telescope under rotating observatory dome. For our last night at Primland, my wife and I decided to stay in the Golden Eagle Tree House. This unique lodging is situated over a 2,700 foot cliff partially in a tree near the 4th green of the golf course. In order to get to the Tree House I had to trade my 1M in for a Ford Explorer (provided by the resort) and for good reason. 1M now parked in front of the Lodge. Ford Explorer. Logging trail to Tree House. Extremely steep grade. Greater than 2,500 ft. drop only a few feet away from trail. Golden Eagle Tree House. While the furnishings inside the tree house were not quite up to those in the Fairway Cottages, they were still excellent. However, who cares what your furnishings look like when this is your view: View from Tree House deck. Sunset from Tree House. Blue Ridge Parkway to Blacksburg, VA While my wife and I were sad to leave Primland, we were excited to meet up with our families for dinner in our hometown of Blacksburg, VA. It also happens that you get to Blacksburg from Primland by taking the Blue Ridge Parkway. More awesome roads, curves, and no cops (at least on our trip)! Some scenery along the route: Another Wild Turkey. Mabry Mill – a circa 1910 sawmill that is popular tourist stop on this section of the Blue Ridge Parkway. One of the many scenic overlooks on the way. Heading Home After dinner and some March Madness watching action in Blacksburg with our families it was time to head back home. However, since our dog was boarded at the kennel and I had the 1M, I could not pass up taking the "alternate" route to I-81. This route was my favorite road growing up and features an awesome tunnel and many great turns including five hairpins that let you feel the 1M's differential work its magic. 1M at Home. Does BSM stand for Black Sapphire Metallic or Brown Sapphire Metallic or even perhaps Bug Sapphire Metallic? Last edited by burnsniper; 04-09-2013 at 06:18 PM. Reason: Updated |

WOW! So this is amazing, I'm still in Roanoke, great to see all these places so close to home. Thanks for sharing some of your routes, I need to go check out some of those roads this weekend!
Next time you are headed through the area let me know, would be nice to meet up with another 1M. TJ |
I've been on that track with 3 different cars. It is one of the most mentally and physically challenging courses in the US. I love this track. It's too bad you didn't have the proper shoes on the 1M! But, awesome pics and glad you had fun.

The 245s with a full trunk made the back end really act like a pendulum on the more abrupt transitions/weight shifts (felt almost like a 83' 911sc that I almost bought a long time ago). |

Frantisek Kupka: Art Works from the Pompidou Collection at Picasso Museum
The exhibition devoted to Kupka at the MPM features 91 works including oils, drawings, gouaches and prints. Photo: Jesús Domínguez. ©Museo Picasso Málaga.
Frantiek Kupka took painting to its essential elements: the plane, line and dot. Over the course of his career he developed a highly distinctive and unique style that still defies any attempt to classify it due to its focus on science, philosophy and mysticism. In addition, Kupkas work suggests new approaches to interpreting the birth and evolution of modern art.
The exhibition held at the
Museo Picasso Málaga
brings together around 90 works, including oil paintings, drawings, gouaches and prints. They span the career of this unique artist, from his earliest academic studies to his pioneering discoveries within the field of abstract painting.
Frantiek Kupka. Art Works from the Centre Pompidou Collection is curated by Brigitte Léal, Associate Director of the Musée National dArt Moderne-Centre de Création Industrielle (MNAM-CCI), and co-produced by the Fundación Joan Miró in Barcelona.
Born in Bohemia in 1871, Frantiek Kupka first studied at the School of Fine Arts in Prague where he received a traditional, academic training. This was followed by a period in fin-de-siècle Vienna, at that date the capital of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the vibrant setting for thinkers and artists such as Sigmund Freud and Gustav Klimt. There, Kupkas early spiritual interests soon led him to become interested in Symbolism, a style that focused on the quest for universal truth, the use of metaphor to express ideals, and a mood of introspection. The artists profound interest in the metaphysical and his fidelity to his origins would be evident throughout his career. The modern spirit of Paris encouraged Kupka to move there in 1896, and he remained there until his death in 1957.
An artist of his time but one difficult to categorise, in the French capital Kupka became acquainted with the artistic movements that arose during the first half of the 20th century. He established links with them but still maintained his own personal direction and was consequently described by the painter and theoretician Félix Del Marle as rebellious, insubordinate and one who pursued his own path. Kupka was never comfortable with the limits imposed by a particular movement, and as a result his painting does not fit within the traditional account of the rise of the early avant-garde movements. Instead, it invites the viewer to adopt new perspectives on the birth and evolution of modern art.
For some time Kupkas independent artistic nature allied itself with the Puteaux group of artists, alongside the Duchamp-Villon brothers, and with the Section dOr, who were close to what Guillaume Apollinaire termed Orphic Cubism (a poetic, colourful variant of Cubism). These artists were also interested in the existence of a fourth dimension in the sense of mathematical proportions, movement and spiritualism. Within this context (with which Kupka was only briefly associated) his investigations led him by 1911 towards a distinctive type of abstraction that he would go on to develop in two principal directions, evident from that point onwards in his work.
Two directions
Firstly, Kupka investigated the idea of the organic, in other words, the consonance of forms and harmony and of vibrations and fluid forms. Secondly, he focused on a more geometrical type of abstraction that involved a profound exploration of the relationship between planes and the idea of the centre, lines, colours and rhythms. I took painting, my painting, towards its constituent parts, its elements, as Poussin would have said. And, as you can see, this was always about the plane, the line and the dot. These are the reasons that explain why I sought flight in complete solitude, explained Kupka, whose creative process was always meticulous, systematic and profoundly reflective.
Kupka had already established some reputation by this point but it was in the 1930s that he started to become well known and to be acknowledged as a pioneer of abstract art, albeit belatedly. Nonetheless, the artist himself saw his aspirations as lying elsewhere: Even if I never achieve great success in life, I am happy to think that this will come about after my death. My whole self is not just my body, and by then I will be sailing far away, in the realm of space.
MPM exhibition
The exhibition devoted to Kupka at the MPM features 91 works including oils, drawings, gouaches and prints. They allow for a complete appreciation of the artists career, from his earliest Symbolist compositions to his last period. The works are loaned from the Centre Georges Pompidous holdings of Kupka, which were largely bequeathed in 1959 and 1963 by his widow, Eugénie Kupka.
Frantiek Kupka. Art Works from the Centre Pompidou Collection is the first retrospective exhibition to be devoted to the artist in Spain. Having been seen at the Fundación Miró in Barcelona, it arrives at the Museo Picasso Málaga with the aim of offering an in-depth analysis of the work of an artist who was a key figure in the development of the art of the 20th century, during the years when Picasso created most of his oeuvre.
The exhibition is completed with a series of documents, including letters, publications with illustrations by Kupka, photographs, and books by him, all of which contribute to our understanding of his work. This material has been lent by the Kandinsky Library of the Centre Pompidou, by the Musée du Grenoble, France, and from the personal collection of the gallerist Pierre Brullé.

MBB: Hawkeyes Defensive Woes Troubling, But Not PermanentBy Scott Dochterman, Reporter
BLACKSBURG, Va. — There's concern, but not dismay, over Iowa's defensive performance in Tuesday's 95-79 loss at Virginia Tech.
The Hawkeyes (5-2) appeared to revert to bad habits that plagued the team a season ago. The Hokies (6-0) shot 52.5 percent from the field and outpaced the Hawkeyes in transition play. Virginia Tech also was dominant in second-chance opportunities, outscoring Iowa 13-2. Iowa's post players got into foul trouble early and struggled to match the Hokies' athletic ability. While the players know they could have played better, Iowa sophomore Aaron White said Tuesday's defensive effort was an aberration. He said it does not mean the Hawkeyes have returned to last year's bad habits, when the team gave up an average of 72.5 points a game. "We haven't had that problem so far this year," White said. "So far we've been locked in defensively. We've been following the game plan. I think we've been a pretty good defensive team this season to be honest with you." Iowa Coach Fran McCaffery said the team doesn't need to readjust its priorities. It's more about execution at both ends of the floor. "We did it (the defensive lapses) with a lot of young players on the floor, and we hope that they learn from it," McCaffery said. "The unfortunate thing is we had some experienced guys on the floor that were breaking down. I thought we were beyond that." McCaffery was most troubled with the team's defensive breakdowns midway through the second half. The Hawkeyes went on a 16-2 run and cut a 15-point deficit to three points. The Hokies twice got to the free-throw line on consecutive possessions, including one where Iowa junior Zach McCabe threw a hip into Virginia Tech guard Robert Brown during a layup. That turned into a three-point play and took the Hokies back up to eight points. During the deciding stretch where Virginia Tech scored on 13-of-15 possessions, Iowa missed four 3-pointers and didn't pick up an offensive rebound. That directly led to four Virginia Tech fast breaks, and the Hokies scored nine points on those possessions. "At that point, as tough as we were in that stretch when we went on the 16-2 run, we needed to be even tougher, and we weren't," McCaffery said. Iowa junior Devyn Marble said the team suffered from "a drop in intensity" on defense. But improving on defense is more about attitude than revisiting fundamentals. "Just get back to how we started off the year," Marble said. "We were mentally focused, we were tuned in, excited, we played together. We've just got to get back to that." CLEMMONS STEPS UP Iowa freshman point guard Anthony Clemmons earned significant playing time Tuesday, and his production was solid. Clemmons played 16 minutes, including 11 after halftime. He scored nine points, dished two assists, had a steal and one turnover. He also fouled out. "I just wanted to come out and give my team a boost once again," Clemmons said. "Every time I come into a game I want to contribute and give us a boost off the bench, come in with energy and go in and attack it." Clemmons was surprised he fouled out; he thought he only had four when he was whistled for his fifth. "I didn't think I had a foul in the first half," he said. "Stuff like that, it happens. That was one thing my high school coach told me, if you're fouling out, you must be playing aggressive I tried to play aggressive and get after it on defense." He also provided a spark offensively. He drilled a 3-point to keep Iowa within one point with four minutes before halftime. He helped whittle Iowa's deficit during the 16-2 run with a drive to the basket. He later hit a pair of free throws and a jumper to keep the Hawkeyes close before the defense collapsed. "He really fought defensively," McCaffery said. "He played intelligent offense. He attacked the basket, he took what was there; he didn't force anything. He did not play like a freshman."

In 2011, Minot voters approved a plan to redirect some city sales tax money to a fund that would go toward property tax relief (30 percent), infrastructure (40 percent) and community facilities (30 percent). Following the Souris River flood, the Minot Park District requested and was granted money from the fund to help with repairs to the Jack Hoeven Baseball Park, which made sense considering the intent of the funds set aside for community facilities.
But this week, the Minot Park Board requested that the Minot City Council designate half of the money set aside for community facilities strictly for use by the park district, for the 10-year duration of the tax.
That raises a couple of questions.
First, does the city council have the authority to automatically redirect a portion of the tax? If the council does not have the authority, then such a decision would likely have to be put on the ballot for voters to decide, since voters originally approved the language of the ordinance.
Second, would giving half of the allotted 30 percent for community facilities exclusively to the park district, either by council decision or voter approval, be a proper use of the funds? Well, that likely depends on who you ask. There's no denying the park district needs financial help with ongoing flood recovery efforts, and the money from the city sales tax fund would certainly speed the district's ability to make repairs to damaged parks , Souris Valley Golf Course and Roosevelt Park Zoo. But what other potential projects wouldn't get funded because the park district would get half the funds?
We're not against the park board's request, but we want to make sure the decision is handled properly, whether it's made by the council or is voted on by Minot residents. If park board members expect public support, there should be public discussion on the issue, so voters have the ability to express their support or reservations about the idea.

GelSight allows for portable 3D super-high-resolution imaging
By Ben Coxworth
August 10, 2011
Typically, if someone wishes to obtain three-dimensional images of micrometer-scale objects, they need to use a device such as a confocal microscope or a white-light interferometer. Such equipment is big, expensive, and often has to be mounted on a vibration-free table. Even then, it can take up to a few hours to get the finished images. Scientists at MIT's Department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, however, have created a system that can obtain the same kind of images almost instantly, using a soda can-sized sensor and a sheet of rubber. It's called GelSight.
The clear, synthetic GelSight rubber is coated on one side with a layer of paint, that contains tiny flakes of metal. When the painted side of the rubber is pressed against a surface, it deforms to the shape of that surface. Looking through the unpainted side of the rubber, one can see the minute contours of the surface, pressing up into the paint. Using cameras in the sensor along with computer algorithms, the system is able to turn those contours into 3D images, that capture details less than one micrometer in depth and approximately two micrometers in width.
The paint is necessary in order to standardize the optical qualities of the surface. Many surfaces are composed of multiple parts that react to light differently - they could be transparent or opaque, for instance. The paint, however, causes everything that makes up the surface to react to light in the same way. This allows for the use of standard computer vision technologies, for obtaining the images.
A major aerospace company has already expressed an interest in using GelSight to check the structural integrity of its products, while forensics experts are also interested in using the technology to identify the unique marks that individual guns leave on shell casings. The MIT researchers believe it could also have applications in areas such as dermatology and biometrics.
The video below illustrates the kinds of things that the technology is capable of.
nothing less than awesome. how much?
Chi Ken Sup11th August, 2011 @ 05:54 am PDT
The gel and the paint layer must be incredibly soft and flexible, and presumably very delicate. An amazing idea!

Sara Avery's passion is helping people uncover the energy that creates their story and the uniqueness of who they really are. In 2001, she transitioned from her first career as an orchestral violinist to guiding people through the deep transformation of Quanta Change. Quanta Change identifies Learned Distress (the feeling that "there is something wrong with me" absorbed in the womb and early in life) as the source of non-well-being. This unique process works with your brain during sleep to permanently remove layers of Learned Distress, allowing your natural well-being to become the source from which your life is generated. Sara's clients discover a new ease and joy in life that they've never experienced—in emotional, spiritual, and physical realms. One client said, "I've been seeking for 40 years, and this is by far the best thing I've ever done for myself." Learn more on her website or read more from Sara on her blog.

- WomanWearingUnderwear
- Photo: Getty Images
Whenever we read "What Men Really Think" magazine articles, there is always one man who says that he loves when a woman isn't embarrassed to get down and dirty in the bedroom with the lights on. To him, there is nothing more confident that a woman unafraid of showing her imperfections (or lack of). We can only imagine how these men would feel about glow-in-the-dark underwear. But does that exude confidence or a "look at me, look at me" mentality?
Related Article: Is It A Fling Or The Real Thing?
British designer Henry Holland, who is appearing on Rihanna's new Sky Living show Styled to Rock, created a glow-in-the-dark underwear collection, full of bright and loud colors, that is "to be seen."
"I wanted our first full underwear collection to be loud and proud," the designer told Vogue UK. "The neon adds a great flash of color when worn to be seen with low-cut summer pieces, and it also glows in the dark - what more could you want?"
So tell what you think: Is glow-in-the-dark underwear used as an accessory piece sexy or trashy?

An intriguing design for an app that uses colour to create a sense of organisation.
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppLogo created by me, for myself! Bright colors, and a stylish fresh look make it pop out.
Emils GarjanisPosted in Branding → LogoA solid design for a business card that uses a bright yellow to grab any prospective contacts attention. The simple mark works well in combination with the branding strength of the yellow.
Posted in Branding → Business CardsA design portfolio that makes a striking impact through its use of typography and concise use of text. I like the restrained use of colour and the way the site immediately plunges you into this designers portfolio.
Posted in Web Design → PortfolioA simply gorgeous site for a software developer that's predominantly focussed on Android apps. I really like the consistency in their icons and the clean and stylish feel of the site. The use of the official colours for Facebook and Twitter looks great.
Posted in Web Design → SoftwareA beautiful site for a community of active people who are passionate about their work. I love the colour palette and static header. The use of certain design elements is very strong, I especially like the hexagons.
Posted in Web Design → CommunityA fascinating portfolio site for a photographer and web designer. I find the use of green and yellow an interesting combination. The cutout effect on the separate grids works well to add some character to a standard gallery format.
Posted in Web Design → PortfolioA fascinating user interface design project for an iPhone game. I really like the thought that's gone into the icons and logotype. The coloured game icons themselves work brilliantly to draw the player in.
Posted in Interface → iPhone AppA brilliant, if slightly abstract, logo for a construction company. I love the symbolism and great use of bold colours. I find that the use of perspective here really helps to make this logo stand out.
Posted in Branding → LogoThis design and development company utilises a rather interesting user interface to engage visitors to the site. The content is laid out in a horizontal slideshow for which you can, if you like, use your arrow keys. I like the overall simplicity of the idea, although using your arrow keys is perhaps a little gimmicky.

Today the United States lost one of its living legends, as Robert Mondavi died today at the age of 94. It's hard to overstate the impact that Robert Mondavi had on the wine world. His name itself was, and still is, one of the most well known brands in America. His family's (and his own) success in the wine business was a prototypical example of the American dream.
Robert Mondavi moved to Napa in 1930's to work in the post-prohibition wine industry of the region, having grown up making wine with his father and brothers in Lodi, California, before attending Stanford University in Palo Alto. Mondavi convinced his father to purchase the Charles Krug winery in 1943, a decision that would prove fateful for the entire family. Under the Mondavis, Charles Krug would become one of the most successful Napa wineries of its time.
This success was not without its trials however, as Julia Flynn Siler chronicled in her history of the family last year. In 1966, after essentially being kicked out of the family, Mondavi founded his own winery in Napa. Through a combination of passion, savvy marketing, and sheer force of will, Mondavi built what can only be called an empire. The rising tide of Mondavi's success, coupled with his own tireless promotion of the place he believed wine should hold in the modern American lifestyle, helped to forge Napa's identity as one of the world's great wine regions.
While the Mondavi name has perhaps lost some of its luster, just as the wines that continue to bear his name have diminished in quality and reputation, these should not and cannot detract from the accomplishments of the man himself. Most wine lovers today owe him a debt of gratitude, if only for helping make America a little more friendly to wine and those who care deeply about it.
Cheers, Robert!
You're quite right in pointing out his contribution to making wine a part of the American lifestyle. Being from a French culture where wine has longer and more "naturally" been part of life, I am perhaps less sensitive to that aspect of his work - perhaps I should say mission.
I'm mostly struck by the finesse and distinction he brought to so many of his wines - something which has been partly lost in the race for hang time, concentration and power. Last night, I tasted a 1997 Mondavi Stag's Leap District Cabernet Sauvignon, as part of a horizontal tasting of 1997 California Cabs that wound up being a circumstantial tribute of sorts. We toasted to Robert Mondavi's memory as we took our first sip of the Stag's Leap, a subtle, elegant and wonderfully balanced wine that held its own against the more powerful Beringer Reserve and Kenwood Artist Series, among others. A lovely tribute to the man, and a sign of what should be preserved of his heritage.
bless his soul

Loading... Telegraph Avenue (original 2012; edition 2013)by Michael Chabon
Work detailsTelegraph Avenue by Michael Chabon (Author) (2012)
Birds in Fiction (19) » 6 more
Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. How could I not love this book? For the past twenty years I have lived a half block off Telegraph Avenue in Oakland. With this book Michael Chabon makes my world a colorful and vital place to live (which it truly is). It is a perceptive portrayal of life in a 21st-century urban American neighborhood full of cultural misunderstandings and larger than life personalities. It is a moving story about class and race, parenting, marriage, and friendship written with warmth and humor and enthusiasm. Telegraph Avenue is a mesmerizing read and I highly recommend it. (Oh, by the way, there is one twelve page sentence!) Telegraph Avenue, by Michael Chabon, takes place on and around the titular street, on the border between Oakland and Berkeley, where Archy Stallings and Nat Jaffe run a small, struggling used record (as in vinyl) store. Their two wives, Gwen and Aviva respectively, are both midwives working in conjunction with a local hospital but generally providing home births for their clients, who are mostly middle and upper class white women; Gwen, who is pregnant herself, is particularly bothered by this because she went into the field to help other Black women give birth in more natural surroundings than a hospital offers. When Nat and Aviva's teenage son Julius, known affectionately as Julie, hooks up with a newcomer to Oakland, Titus, who turns out to be Archy's son by another woman, the relationship between the two couples becomes strained; when a large, Black-owned business plots to move into their turf, the men's record store is threatened; and when Archy's ne'er-do-well father, an ex-junkie and ex-martial-arts movie star, turns up with a comeback scheme, the lives of all the intertwined families are up-ended.... I have to say from the get-go that I reacted very subjectively to this book, because I grew up in part exactly in the area in which this novel takes place, albeit some 25 or 30 years earlier than the events in the book: when, in the very short Part 3 section of the book, a woman deciding what to do with the furniture of a deceased relative and realizing that the pieces are "fit only for the Ashby BART flea market," I think "hey, that's where I bought my very first couch, a monstrous yellow thing that cost me $15!" and when, later in the same section, a bird ends up near "Juan's Mexican," I think "hey, that's where we had dinner with my mother and a friend the last time we were in California!" So one cannot say that I am unbiased with respect to this story. Leaving that aside as much as possible, I really like this book a lot. Chabon has a trick of getting into the heads of very disparate characters, and the stories from the past and the present flow into one another in almost a stream-of-consciousness way without being either pretentious or annoying in the process. The story is sometimes very very funny, and at other times heart-breakingly sad, and at all times it feels entirely real and human. I've only read a couple of Chabon's other novels, but I enjoyed those two very much as well; I will definitely seek out more in the future. Recommended! I can't go without mentioning the eleven-page-long third section of the novel--a single sentence, mostly written from the viewpoint of a parrot. Yes, it's undeniably virtuosic writerly trickery, but I was seven pages into it before I even realized that it was all one sentence, and to me, that means it worked. When I finished the section, I commented to my husband: Me: "This guy just wrote a sentence that was eleven pages long." Tall Paul: "Is that even legal?" Me: "It is if you do have a license to do literary tricks like that, and this guy most definitely does." Aside from the parrot's-eye-view piece, I appreciated the way that Chabon's explorations into genre during the last decade or so colored this return to more literary fiction. I loved the smart pop-culture references, which cover such a wide range--assorted musical genres, comics, classic science fiction, film theory, television--that even if you don't get them all, your own particular form of nerdery will probably be represented. Granted, I have an abiding weakness for smart pop-cultural references in most of my entertainment anyway, but I particularly like sensing that they're not just tossed in; for the most part, I found them to be well-chosen, functional details that help flesh out scenes and characters. I'm not sure that Telegraph Avenue is as ambitious a novel as Chabon's Pulitzer Prize-winner The Adventures of Kavalier and Clay, and I don't think it fully achieves the ambitions it does have. That said, I generally applaud that kind of ambition, and feel a little let down when it doesn't quite stick the landing. But when someone writes the way Chabon does, the letdown isn't quite as rough. READ MORE: http://www.3rsblog.com/2013/05/book-talk-telegraph-avenue-michael-chabon.html There are two principle problems with this book. First, it moves along at an absolute snail's pace. Second, the thoughts and observations of the main characters are more like an Ivy League educated Caucasian than an inner city dweller living in Oakland, California. For instance, upon looking at grass in a yard a lady observes that it looks like "pampas grass". Another time when watching a movie a character compares a technique to an old obscure Alfred Hitchcock belief. There are hundreds of things that wouldn't match up to the way people think in my neighborhood either. It was all writer talk and totally incongruent with the characters being portrayed. I liked Chabon's earlier award winning book but this one does not float my boat. There are several long passages where Chabon gets so carried away in the desire to make his narrator hip that important plot elements get lost. The dialogue shines, though. I'm not wild about the way the gay characters get treated, especially coming from a writer who is normally so sensitive to those things. Still, this book has a lot of style, and encompasses some great 70s history. The book says some really complimentary things about Quentin Tarantino, and takes a cue or two from him in terms of its mix of pop culture with jazz culture. Recommended.
"Telegraph Avenue," Michael Chabon's rich, comic new novel, is a homage to an actual place: the boulevard in Northern California where Oakland — historically an African-American city — aligns with Berkeley, whose bourgeois white inhabitants are, as one character puts it, "liable to invest all their hope of heaven in the taste of an egg laid in the backyard by a heritage-breed chicken." The novel is equally a tribute to the cinematic style of Quentin Tarantino, whose films its characters study and discuss, and whose preoccupations pepper its pages: kung fu, cinematic allusions and the blaxploitation films of the 1970s; and an interest in African-American characters and experience. Chabon and Tarantino make an unlikely duo; while the latter's films tend toward gaudy eruptions of violence, Chabon bends Tarantino's sensibility to a warmhearted novel about fatherhood in which the onstage violence consists of two graphic childbirth scenes and a 15-year-old boy whacking a chubby thug with a wooden sword. A self-help book in the style of Andrei Tarkovsky would be hardly more oxymoronic. Mr. Chabon has constructed an amazingly rich, emotionally detailed story that addresses his perennial themes — about fathers and sons, husbands and wives, and the consolations of art — while reaching outward to explore the relationship between time past and time present, the weight (or lightness, as the case may be) of history, and the possibility of redemption and forgiveness.

No descriptions found. In this novel the author takes us to Telegraph Avenue. It is a story that explores the profoundly intertwined lives of two Oakland, California families, one black and one white. Here he creates a world grounded in pop culture: Kung Fu, 1970s Blaxploitation films, vinyl LPs, jazz and soul music, and an epic of friendship, race, and secret histories. Longtime band mates Archy and Nat preside over Brokeland Records, a used-record emporium. All is well until a former NFL quarterback, one of the country's richest African Americans, decides to build his latest Dogpile megastore on nearby Telegraph Avenue. Not only could this spell doom for the little shop and its cross-race, cross-class dream, but it opens up past history regarding Archy's untethered dad and a Black Panther-era crime.… (more) (summary from another edition) |

Pacific Rims: Basketball in the Philippines
Editor's Note: This guest post by Patrick Truby takes a look at the newly released book about one of the most passionate basketball-loving countries in the world: The Philippines. I'm incredibly excited about this book (and to be honest, a little disappointed that the publisher didn't get the review copy to me that they had promised!). At the bottom of the article are some links to follow Patrick's other writing.
Being half Filipino and growing up in Hawaii, much of my youth was filled with the sights, smells, and tastes of my grandmother's Filipino cooking, as well as the sound of her chatting up other old women in Tagalog, their native language. I've eaten some of the food and know a small selection of Filipino phrases (the naughty ones), but that's pretty much the extent of my knowledge. I've been told by a number of Filipinos that I need to go see my homeland. I would be all for it, but I wouldn't know where to start, since I have no idea where in the Philippines my family came from or when my grandparents moved to Hawaii.
I'm telling you this because Rafe Bartholomew's Pacific Rims: Beermen Ballin' in Flip-Flops and the Philippines' Unlikely Love Affair with Basketball is as much about Filipino culture as it is about basketball. Bartholomew, an assistant editor at Harper's Magazine and 2005 Fulbright Scholar, embeds himself with the Alaska Aces of the Philippine Basketball Association (PBA) for a season. The PBA is the second-oldest professional basketball league behind the NBA. Like other PBA teams, Alaska was named after its corporate owner, in this case, the Alaska Milk Corporation (the Aces arch-rivals are the brewery sponsored San Miguel Beermen).
That the immense popularity of basketball in the Philippines makes a franchise an effective marketing tool is only one hint of how the sport permeates through Filipino culture. PBA players and coaches often translate their basketball fame into government positions. Politicians build high-end, roofed courts not only to appease local constituents, but also because courts are often used as community centers.
Bartholomew catalogs the basketball culture by linking its introduction to the history of the Philippines and pointing out that its popularity is not as unlikely as his title suggests. Like Catholicism, which was brought to the country by Spain, Bartholomew writes, "Basketball was also introduced by a colonial power," this time the United States. The Philippines embraced it, created their own style of circus lay-ups instead of flashy dunks, and even became a dominant international basketball powerhouse from the early to mid 1900s.
Basketball is everywhere. Bartholomew begins the book by finding a pickup game simply by following the sound of dribbling basketballs. Many kids learn to play on makeshift hoops with backboards of planks of wood nailed together. Jeepneys—"a form of public transportation from U.S. military vehicles that once carried GIs around the American naval and air force bases"—are often painted with NBA team logos and players' faces.
Pacific Rims also boasts its share of fascinating characters. There is Willie Miller, the Aces' star player and PBA's "clown prince," providing moments of levity. There is Rosell "Roe" Ellis, the Aces' star import player. Roe attended Rainier Beach High School, the same high school in Seattle as Nate Robinson and Jamal Crawford. Roe's history is presented with the clarity of amazing self-awareness. Before diving headfirst into the events that brought Roe to the PBA, Roe begins his story of how he ended up in the Philippines by asking, "You know I choked a ref, right?" Then there is the unforgettable Billy Ray Bates. Bartholomew picks up Bates's story where David Halberstam left off in Breaks of the Game. The pages devoted to Bates are simultaneously joyous and heartbreaking. They tell the story of a tragic-hero type figure finding and losing direction through the game of basketball.
Like any good sports book, Pacific Rims has its sequences of cinematic highlights, including a suspenseful game recap where I found myself turning the pages, wondering what would happen next, and rooting for the Aces to pull off a hard-fought win. But the best parts of the book are when Bartholomew links basketball to Filipino culture. When speaking to Michael Tan, who researches gender, sexuality, and public health in the Philippines, Bartholomew writes:
The sport had become not just a pastime for young Filipino men, Tan explained, but a rite of passage. When boys reach adolescence, they receive privileges. Their mothers begin to allow them to roam their neighborhoods freely, getting into trouble but also learning how to carry themselves as men. Inevitably, these boys end up playing basketball, first in their own neighborhood, but then branching out to compete against kids in other areas. These early trials teach them masculine virtues like teamwork, aggression, and machismo...So basketball is there to make friends, build alliances. It even crosses class barriers.
Finally, there is the passage that reminded me of my childhood family dinners, my grandmother's cooking, and her sitting around the table, chatting forever with her Filipino friends: "Togetherness is one of the most rigid social norms in Philippine culture, and it played a major role in the chemistry of PBA teams. There's a powerful urge in Philippine society to be part of the group, whether it's a family, a bunch of classmates, or a basketball team."
There's a wealth of information on the internet regarding Pacific Rims. Bartholomew's website is a good place to start (and has links to order the book, which you should do ASAP). Check out the book's Facebook page, which also includes a bunch of photos of Philippine basketball. Last but not least, be sure to check There's No "I" in Blog, where I will be posting an interview with Bartholomew in the near future.
Patrick is a Boston-based writer who grew up in Hawaii and Seattle. He once ate a raw chili pepper in exchange for Ken Griffey, Jr.'s rookie card and now dreams of a Supersonics return to Seattle. He writes for There's No "I" In Blog. Follow him on Twitter.

DeVine Wine Club
The Royal Cliff Wine Club was launched on 28th April 2001 as the visible face of the resort's enthusiasm for promoting wines and hosting wine-related events. It has enjoyed tremendous success from its very first function.
The opening ceremony was presided over by Lord Mayor of Pattaya, Khun Pairat Suthithamrongsawat, and Mrs. Panga Vathanakul, Managing Director of the Royal Cliff Hotels Group. Then for the next two hours, wine club members and invited guests were enjoyably educated in the art of wine appreciation.
Today, membership has grown substantially and we are now Asia's leading wine club. Our monthly dinners are always very popular, offering an exquisite seven-course meal. At each event the resort invites renowned international wine experts to introduce and offer their wines to our members.
Our award-winning wine cellar houses the most formidable selection of wines, boasting more than 36,000 carefully selected bottles in its inventory, including over 1,000 of the world's best new- and old-world wine labels and 15 varieties of the resort's own label selection. The wines in this selection hail from some of the world's best wine producing regions and are exclusively made and bottled for the Royal Cliff Hotels Group.
In 2009, the resort was bestowed five "Best of Awards of Excellence 2009" from New York's Wine Spectator magazine, making it the first hotel resort in the world to achieve this feat. Many wine enthusiasts, winemakers and wine writers around the world have acknowledged this remarkable achievement.
For more information about the wine club and membership, please email the club's acting-president
Mr. Antonello Pass at firstname.lastname@example.com.
