2011 Grgich Hills Cabernet Sauvignon
"Bright medium red-ruby. Tight aromas and flavors of dark berries and licorice complicated by tobacco, spicecake and flowers. Bright and juicy in the mouth, with a touch of sweetness counterpointed by sound acidity. Nicely avoids the greenness of the vintage and finishes with a fine dusting of tannins, good energy and moderate length." -Stephen Tanzer

Movie Info
The recipient of seven Oscar (R) nominations, this film version of Jane Austen's classic 1811 novel stars Emma Thompson as Elinor Dashwood. With her mother and sisters, Elinor struggles financially after the death of her father, who bequeathed the Dashwood estate to his oafish son by an earlier marriage. While sorting out the family's affairs, the shy, self-sacrificing Elinor secretly falls for her stepbrother-in-law, Edward Ferrars (Hugh Grant), a sensitive, well-educated bachelor who cannot

Thompson's script manages the neat trick of preserving the necessary niceties and decorum of civilized behavior of the time while still cutting to the dramatic quick.
I can't say I remembered this 1995 feature too clearly a couple of days later; but I certainly had a good time as I watched it.
Thompson and Winslet give fine performances ably supported by the rest of the ensemble.
The sensibility may be a bit off, but there is more than enough sense involved in this mid-Atlantic Austen to make up the difference.
Sense and Sensibility is an enjoyable film, and yet it left me somehow unsatisfied.
For once, Thompson turns in a gimmick-free performance, and the rest of the actors range from fine to fabulous.
Unlike most of the usual rolling hills, costume period drama, Merchant-Ivory type, century-old novel movies, Sense and Sensibility succeeds quite handily.
Though old-fashioned, this version of Austen's popular book is most enjoyable due to Ang Lee's skillfull helming, Emma Thompson's astute screenplay, which deservedly won the Oscar, and excellent ensemble headed by Thompson and Kate Winslet.
Enduring love, heartbreak, undying passion and bitter betrayal. What more could you ask from Jane Austen, and for that matter, from a film?
Seeing a world that seems kinder, gentler, nobler and simpler to our own can have its own theraputic value.
A host of fine performances support the great screenplay, photography and editing of the film.
This is a film devoid of egotism but full of soul, an intelligent work of art that is not afraid to get wacky at times.
[Sense and Sensibility is]...the first film of Jane Austen that I can remember having enjoyed.
I don't want to see another movie for the rest of the year. To do so would be to spoil the joy I experienced in seeing Sense and Sensibility.

- Elinor Dashwood: What do you know of my heart? What do you know of anything but your own suffering. For weeks, Marianne, I've had this pressing on me without being at liberty to speak of it to a single creature. It was forced on me by the very person whose prior claims ruined all my hope. I have endured her exultations again and again whilst knowing myself to be divided from Edward forever. Believe me, Marianne, had I not been bound to silence I could have provided proof enough of a broken heart, even for you.

A man has been jailed for 25 years for murdering his neighbour who moved to London from Sussex for a fresh start.
Leonard Head, 50, of Grove Road, Walthamstow was today at Snaresbrook Crown Court told he would serve a minimum of 25 years for the murder of Jeffrey Coombes who he killed to steal his property to buy drugs.
Mr Coombes – who was known as Jeff – "sought no confrontation with anyone", police said.
The 51-year-old, from St Leonards, was last known alive on June 21, 2013, when he had phone conversation with a friend.
After not hearing from him, concerned relatives tried to get hold of him but to no avail, including visiting the address on a couple of occasions and leaving notes on his door asking him to contact his sister.
No contact was made with family and relatives attended again on July 14, 2013.
They were so concerned then officers were called.
Mr Coombes was found dead in the flat – he had suffered head and facial injuries. Inquiries found that a white 24-inch Bush HD television was missing from the address, along with a Nokia mobile phone, an Acer laptop, a wallet with Velcro fastening and a set of house keys.
Inquiries led police to Leonard Head who lived at the same address, but in a flat opposite Mr Coombes.
Both men knew each other.
A witness said Head, a drug addict, had tried to sell him a white television and a laptop similar to what was stolen.
Head's fingerprints were also on the television as well as blood from the victim.
Detective Chief Inspector John Sandlin said: "Leonard Head has not accepted any responsibility for the murder of Jeff.
"He attacked Jeff, stole his property for money in order to feed his drug habit, and then laid low hoping that his crime would not be discovered, stating he was oblivious to the smell of Jeff's decomposing body in the flat opposite his, even though it was described as overpowering.
"This was a cowardly attack on a man in his own home, who had been described as a man who sought no confrontation with anyone."

Please Lord, I Really Don't Want An Orange Jumpsuit.
I am so ready for vacation.
Either I get the hell out of Dodge or various acts of mayhem will occur.
Let's just list the highlights, shall we ?
1. I did not go to school to become as obsessed as some of the co-workers that I have to tolerate with regards to the status/operational function or tidiness of the womens fucking bathroom on my floor. Contrary to popular belief, that is NOT listed in my job description, not even loosely falling under the umbrella of " duties as deemed necessary ". I can and do send the property management an email with a service request as needed.
Not a big deal.
However , even after 30 + years here , these entitled , shrews with all the warmth and compassion of Elizabeth Bathory seem to feel a God given compulsion to continuously come up to me to report, advise , question and discuss the problem de jour in graphic terms...again and again and again and again and again.
The property management has been alerted. It will be attended to .
And you wonder about my attitude ?
2. The conference room situation. Now this is a part of my actual job, riding herd on meeting space and scheduling same . In the past this has been a no brainer. But as we become busier , since there are only 4 rooms available on this floor at any given time , the possibility that you will in fact be able to use a room for your bullshit birthday breakfast/cake/geedunk decreases proportionately. Do not bristle if I politely ask which attorney, number of people involved and so on. Two of the rooms are smaller than the others. I try to accomodate your actual needs with space available. Booking a room at the lunch hour for you and your BFF's to eat your lunch because after all , you are not only special but also deserving of this boon...HELL NO. These rooms are dedicated to actual CLIENT MEETINGS .The kind the attorneys can BILL for . You know..that pesky little procedure that generates OUR PAYCHECKS ? Not to mention that it is widely known that cleaning up and or removing your beverage cup/glasses and removing your food debris....is after all beneath you....AIN'T MY PROBLEM BITCH. I doubt a client would appreciate the aroma of BBQ or what ever noxious aromas linger long after you have begrudgingly tromped back to your desk at the cube farm as you pine for Prince Charming to take you away from all of this splendour.
In other news............
Why do people think it is permissible to interrupt others when the former sees the latter quietly reading on their own property ? It never fails. You get to the best part of the chapter and here they come. ....and I was raised right. I close the book and give my attention to my guests . I would'nt mind half as much if they would occasionally ask if then was a good time to walk over..but then knowing me , I would agree out of politeness regardless of what I was doing....
See what I mean ?
I need a drink, a nap, a cupcake and out of here...not necessarily in that precise order.
At least SU has the common sense to know when to give me space when I am stressed ...

I found this while noodling around Pinterest and thought what the hell. It's that time of year where it is officially hotter than Satan's underoos and I am bored with being bored with food. One of the things that I love about autumn is that I am more apt to get my brain engaged in the kitchen . Pinterest is a grat way too archive recipes that I want to try and save before I have one of my usual " WTH did I see that fill in the blank recipe again ? "
AKA : Arrrrrrrggghhhhhhhhhhhhhh !
No , I have not dropped off the planet..I 'm hostage to my kindle and Anne Rice . Since she has a NEW LeStat coming out in October I am re-reading all of the vampire books.

Sharknado 2 : The Second One
I am one of those folks who watched the first movie more than once and just flat out loved it . I love bad science fiction B films..not the gore fest popular today and not horror films.
Freddy, Jason and Chuckie can go take a hike.
What I love are films that have humor.
Also known as anything with my boy Bruce.
Brain candy.
Like badly edited martial arts movies.
" Dialogue, dialogue, scowl, angry face, more verbiage....".
Translation : " No ! " .
I fell in love with the first Sharknado because no on involved took it or themselves seriously. They weren't so self aware about it that it insulted the audience, it was more .." Hey ..this shits gonna be a hoot ..lets rock this ."
Much like " Bubba Hotep".
Sharknado 2, The Second One ..or just S2 was the same with the added bonus of many cameos. In the first 5 minutes you had Robert Hayes ( Airplane ) as the pilot...Kelly Osbourne as a flight attendant and The Wheatons ( Yes................both Wil and Anne - bonus ! ) get eaten by sharks. Sharks that were flying through the air in turbulence, hitting the plane..actually more like taking bites out of it..and so on.
The cameos were wonderful :
Robert Hayes
Kelly Osbourne
Wil and Anne Wheaton
Billy Rae Cyrus
Downtown Julie Brown
Kelly Ripka
Her co - host whose name escapes me
Al Roker
Matt Lauer
The black business man from " Shark Tank "
Judd Hirsch
Robert Klein
Andy Dick
It was wonderful !
Bonus..Chainsaws !
SyFy will be running both again this weekend...look out for the bits where Nova in the first one actually explosion jumps in her escape before the actual truck ignites.
Happy Friday Eve

I Am Soooooo Excited.
I am so unbelieveably stoked , excited and twitching.
Back in 1983 or 1984 , I went to the Texas Ren Fes for the first time . I had been to others and for a very long time was an active member of the SCA. I encountered Real and Muffy just on the inside of the perimeter on the left and fell in love.
I had seen a couple of the pocket dragons at Ashley Avery and picked them up but had no idea that I would soon be meeting the creator .
I'm a groupie.
A Real Musgrave dragon loving figurine collecting groupie.
I have never been a collector of anything really save unset cut gemstones ( that's another story ) so I actually bounced up and down on the chair in the den when SU found this notification. I suspect that since he has purchased tickets on line for this before that he is on their mailing list....score !!
Real and his wife live here in Texas and he had to quit his craft a few years ago because of arthritus , I of course was broken hearted . And to top that off, the dragons have become harder and harder to find. The smaller pieces are sometimes available on Amazon or with a few smaller gift shops but for the most part what is out there I already have.
We have a few of the larger pieces that were the combo anniversary/Christmas gifts and they stayed in the house during the renovation last year.
One of my most prized Christmas / Anniversary gifts from my husband , is a large signed poster from either 1985 or 1989 that I held onto for ages just stashed away . . He had professionally matted and framed. It hangs in the long hall at the end just outside of the master bedroom. I have never really wanted to hang anything other than some of Reals artwork on the wall and so the walls save the one mentioned above are bare.
Not for long.
I have a friend who also has a few pieces and have offered to get her a signed poster that I will send off...we are small but mighty in our dedication to all things pocket dragony.
To see my obsession google Real Musgrave or Pocket Dragons.
Have a great week.

For The Love Of God....Why ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????
I should not be but I am .
I am continuously surprised at the bullsh*t I see some people pull at work, regardless of their placement in the overall food chain, especially with the implied expectation that no one notices their shenanigans and malarkey.
You rarely see egos like those of attorneys.
It ain't pretty.
A whole section is being reshuffled because one slack jawed knuckle dragging primate in training has decided that he " NO LONGER WANTS TO PASS BY OR LOOK AT THE FACE OF HIS FORMER LEGAL ASSISTANT."
I no longer want to shave my legs but because I am a civilized person I do so as a courtesy to the lovely folks who do my pedi's every other week. No...for the record, I do not shave above my knee where the foldy bit of the leg actually is ..if we are in that region....there had better damn well be dinner and many drinks involved bucko...just sayin.
But still...manners are manners.
This hatted one has everyone in an uproar. Most of us are amazed that this is being allowed to happen but he does bring in the Benjamin's so squeaky wheel wins again.
Does he really think he's won ?
Yes, the legal assistant could have been a bit better at managing her time attending to his work, I tried to warn her that the junior member of her assignment slipped a lot into toddler behavior quite easily and she needed to placate him a bit...but no....
In the end it did no good because the hatted one got his way and she frankly is lucky to have a job here..trust me..I've seen separations for less cause.
Life lesson...learn to observe behavior more and pay attention .
In order to be able to validly say " Not my first rodeo." , you have to survive it in tact.
Gonna be a long ass week.

I'm Still Alive..Mostly That Is .
It's been hotter than the 9'th level of Hell lately so unfortunately I have had no energy to post.
Come to think of it, most of this year has been like that due to one reason or another. Hells Bells, I surprised myself that I actually skipped posting a ditty about Bastille Day, tho to be fair I crashed as soon as we got home..nausea not my friend.
Anyhoo , not a hell of a lot is going on right now at the Casa which is fine I guess. Every night when I get home and change I water all of the potted plants on the deck then pray for rain...and pray some more. I can't complain ( like that ever stopped me , bitch please , have you met me ? ) since we have had a lot of blessed rain and while it has helped the drought , we are by no means out of the woods.
At least we are not as bad as Cali...HEH.." We can't run out state as it is so lets subdivide..so much more efficient." . Yeppers..laughing directly and out loud at that one. Instead of one idiot fi'g up the whole magilla..lets grab 5 more and make a six pack of idiots to run this thing.
Let me know how that goes for ya ..m'kay ?
I always need more material to abuse and poke my big stick at.
And hisself has been working a lot so in his free time he has been running with his buddies and or playing goof so I can't complain..I do anyway but not as much or as often..DUDE....I do try ok ?
Gracie Marie ( YES DEAR ..I AM GOING TO CALL HER A GIRL...LIVE WITH IT..SHE AND I ARE FINE WITH IT ) has decided it's too hot for her so most days she is on the water bed, belly side up ,l fur floofing under the ceiling fan...smart girl. We still have our Mommy and me time on the deck but it's usually about 7:30 pm when it is not quite OMG out there.
I've got a couple of things rattling around in the little gray cells so stay tuned.
Have a great week.

If It's Monday It's John Barrowman Time !
Happy Post I hope y'all survived the 4'th .
I was surprised this year that we had as many fireworks in the subdivision as we did . A few years ago when we were under a drought/no fire/no burn ban , I didn't think a lot about it . I assumed that folks had the common sense not to and with the exception of the Pyro that lives directly behind me on a cul de sac , every one paid attention. After that there has been an increasing amount of the boom booms until this year.
This year sounded like the DMZ the whole weekend.
Gracie Marie was not a happy kitty.
Nor was her Mama .
I know it's fun and all dudes and we have had a lot of rain but some of us want to actually get some sleep at some point before the coming dawn....without passing out in order to do so .
Sheesh !
SU was off campus for almost the entire weekend so I was able to get a lot done and Gracie only moderately fussed about her incarceration so that was all good but as usual my to do list is way longer than the actual amount of available time so as always I over do...and pay the price.
Oye my back !
At least this weekend I got a day nap on Saturday and we did cook off a decent size brisket so meals are in the clear..
It's clouding up again and they say that we are going to have showers every afternoon which is fine by me..less to water but I seem to be the exception to the issue. A lot of folks that I work with are really getting po'd about the rain .
They are also the types to get po'd about what ever is the opposite of common sense.
This is the time of year that we really watch with hurricanes. We actively watch the water temp in the Gulf .
We really need the rain about now.
Because of the drought the last couple of years the price of beef , chicken and to a smaller part lamb has gone through the roof.
Produce...forget finding a decent price even at the local markets.
I like sitting on the deck with the kindle listening to the rain on the metal cover.
All I have to do is figure out the new Kindle HD I had to buy Thursday.
Anyone who knows me knows I cannot function without a book of some kind.
And the battery on the old one went kaput.
I did however buy a users guide this time because this new HD is way more complicated that my old one which was only 3 years old ?
First generation Fire.
Anyhoo, the forums under managing your device (s) is not very helpful. I think they lack a moderator because there is the usual battery of Trolls there...and I don't have time, the need or interest in engaging that ilk.
I basically want a reader but the screen for the paperwhite is just too small.
I may or may not use the other function, I didn't on the first one so we'll see .
New adventures with electronics........................HUZZAH !
Have a great week.

HOUSTON – A third suspect accused of swiping more than $6 million worth of gold, watches and diamonds from a Houston jewelry store was arrested in Dallas Saturday, according to police.
U.S. Marshals and a Dallas SWAT found Kelvin O' Brien in a nightclub, according to authorities.
O'Brien, his brother John O'Brien and Jason Kennedy, were charged with engaging in organized crime after police said they allegedly targeted a number of high-end stores in a series of well-organized heists. In fact, investigators believe the trio is responsible for as many as 30 thefts in Texas and Oklahoma, dating back to 2000.
John O'Brien and Kennedy were arrested September 6 and given a $12 million bond each, but Kelvin O'Brien remained at large until multiple tips led authorities to his whereabouts.
According to court documents, Houston police investigators were alerted to the trio after a break-in at the Karat 22 jewelry store in the 5600 block of Hillcroft on February 5, 2011.
The owner of the store told investigators his alarm went off that night, but when he checked security cameras from his home computer, he didn't see anything out of the ordinary.
Assuming it was a false alarm, he went back to sleep.
But the next day, when he showed up at the store, he realized he'd been burglarized.
The victim told police someone had cut a hole through the roof of his store and cut their way into his vault.
The victim said 155 kilos of 22-carat gold, precious stones and Rolex watches were missing.
Surveillance video from a nearby business showed a pickup truck cruising the area on the night of the robbery, police said. Around 4:30 a.m., police said two men could be seen dragging heavy objects from the store to the truck.
Police said they later discovered the truck belonged to Kennedy.
Investigators also said they found several cut off blades at the scene of the crime, apparently used by the suspects to slice through the vault.
Houston investigators then spoke with an IRS North Texas Asset Forfeiture Task Force investigator, who said he'd been investigating a series of jewelry store burglaries in Texas and Oklahoma similar to the break-in at the Karat 22 store.
That investigator said he'd identified Kelvin and John O'Brien, who both own businesses in Dallas at which jewelry is bought and sold, as suspects.
Kelvin O'Brien was previously charged with a jewelry store burglary in Dallas in 2007.
Investigators said they were able to determine that the cut off blades found at the scene of the Houston burglary were sold exclusively at Home Depot, and later found surveillance footage of John O'Brien purchasing some of the blades near his home in Fort Worth.
Investigators said when they searched John O'Brien's home, they found appraisals for stolen diamonds.
An HPD officer interviewed the president of Millennium Precious Metals, who said he'd bought gold from the O'Briens in the past.
He said the brothers came in with two Home Depot buckets containing 99 pounds of melted-down 22-carat gold to sell on February 7.
Millennium Precious Metals purchased that gold for $1.6 million, which the purchaser said he wired to John O'Brien's bank account.
Four days later, the president of Millennium Precious Metals said the O'Briens came back with about 85 pounds of melted-down gold, which he also purchased – this time for $1.3 million.
Soon after the burglary, police said Kelvin O'Brien paid cash for a $445,000 home, put in an $85,000 pool, bought a $100,000 Land Rover and a $100,000 boat.
Investigators said they later interviewed Kennedy, who admitted that he'd committed the Karat-22 burglary with the O'Briens.
Kelvin O'Brien will be extradited to Houston for prosecution.

Practise Putting At 900m With This Mountaintop Mini-Golf Course
If you make it to the top of La Rhune, a 900m tall mountain in the Pyrenees between France and Spain, you can look up and out to the natural panorama: peaks and valleys stretching unobstructed into the distance. Or you could look down to the playful Panorama: an eight-hole goofy golf course at your feet.
Clever Golf Trick Shots Activate A Fun Rube Goldberg Machine
Video: You would think that you could only do so much with golf trick shots but David Kalb, trick shot extraordinaire, takes it to another level. He rigs his trick shots so they have to be absolutely perfect because they eventually turn into Rube Goldberg machines that can make hot dogs and create flaming watermelon heads. Watch.
Watch A Pro Golfer Knock A Drone From The Sky With One Golf Ball
Shooting down a flying drone is challenging even for machine gun-wielding sharpshooters.

Thankfully, the quadcopter was carrying a GoPro, so we could see the whole thing unfold. Poor drone.
The Jedi Putter's Constant Feedback Makes You A Master Of The Green

Simon Connor spliced golf highlights from the Masters with traditional mini golf courses and it's perfectly goofy.
Sparking Titanium Golf Clubs Might Be Causing California Wildfires
Researchers at UC Irvine have determined that golfers who can't keep their shots out of the rough might actually be responsible for wildfires in California in recent years.

"I only said that, next year, drivers would be hard pressed to be over 80 kilos" - Martin Whitmarsh
Alonso's boss Stefano Domenicali is admitting the fight against Sebastian Vettel is "almost impossible" to win now.
Fernando Alonso: "He deserved to be in front of us because he did a fantastic race."
A bit of history between the Scuderia Ferrari and the Japonese Grand Prix.
He finished Sunday's Korean Grand Prix a stunning fourth, and was crowned "the man of the race" by Mercedes chairman Niki Lauda.
Formula One drivers continue to complain and worry about the Pirelli tyres, and now Perez adds his thoughts after the Korean Grand Prix.
Felipe Massa told that mid-season change made some teams go forward while others went back.
Webber accused Pirelli of being unconcerned about driver safety.
Prior to the start of the Korean Grand Prix, Vettel and his "balls" comment is back along with the "boos" but as Alonso said: "When I was world champion, the fans booed me."
Gutierrez told he has changed his whole approach to the entire weekend.
Mercedes Ross Brawn: "We haven't seen his true pace yet, but hopefully we won't get a repeat of Singapore."
Monisha Kaltenborn told reporters on Saturday she only did not categorically rule out the 41-year-old for 2014 out of respect.
Fernando Alonso told reporters in Korea the tyres "will not do 5km"
The unpopular race at remote Yeongam has been given a provisional date on the huge 22-race 2014 calendar.
Lewis Hamilton believes that Sebastian Vettel is not the best driver in F1 field.
Davide Valsecchi lack of experience, compared to Felipe and Nico, does not make him the favourite, but he is obviously on the list, Eric Boullier admitted.
"Hopefully it will be possible for him to return" - Felipe Massa
Kimi Raikkonen insisted that nothing has changed to his motivation and he still racing for wins and podiums.
Fernando Alonso insisted he stays at Ferrari.
"Let's see the real calendar and then we'll figure it out" - Christian Horner
Surer believes that a change would be good for Vettel.
Money from the Russian rescue deal has begun to flow.
Bernie Ecclestone: "I'm a big fan of Felipe's"
"It was definitely inappropriate" - Nico Rosberg
"Fuel was mentioned purely for illustrative purposes" - FIA spokesman
Monisha Kaltenborn told they have couple of options for Barrichello
"I never had any clause in any contract defining who is the first or the second driver" - Felipe Massa
According to the Telegraph, Briton Ward has been quoted as admitting that he could stand aside for Bin Sulayem
Vettel's 'system' and Raikkonen's back are the main two big talking points
Mexico is one of three races given only provisional status on the unprecedentedly-long 2014 calendar, the others being New Jersey and Korea.
Alonso insists that Saturday is not a problem for him.
Reports have suggested Red Bull might actually be mimicking the banned 'blown exhaust' era with a clever engine mapping solution.
"We need to have quality events, quality drivers, quality teams and keep that going." - Mark Webber
"My role requires me to be ready" - Davide Valsecchi
Team boss Kaltenborn said Sauber is yet to decide who Sirotkin's teammate will be, but is approaching the decision with an open mind.

A good photographer is essential to any event that you want to remember. Photos bring memories of the events alive. However, when I look back at the photos of important occasions in my life, I often wish I had more pictures, perhaps from other angles, with other expressions, or with individuals who did not pose in that picture.
It's raining outside right now, but summer will come eventually and with it come a host of outdoor events including concerts. Even though it feels like summer is a long time away, events take a long time to plan, so there's no time like the present to start.
Where do you intend on holding the concert? Popular outdoor concert venues in the Portland area include the Clark County Amphitheater, Oaks Park, Columbia Meadows in St Helens, the waterfront, and some Portland Parks. Be sure and get all necessary permits and insurance for your event and know the requirements and restrictions of your venue.

A report commissioned by the city Fisheries Commission shows that, as of a month ago, 210 commercial fishing vessels berth at docks and wharves in Gloucester's Inner Harbor and 38 percent of those utilize publicly-owned facilities.
But that's not all it shows. The report, compiled by the Urban Harbor Institute at UMass-Boston, also offers a glimpse of how quickly things can change as the city and the region experience the throes of the ongoing commercial fishing crisis.
The first draft of the report was completed last spring. Between then and late February, when the Fisheries Commission received the final report, the roll of vessels docking at the 77 waterfront properties in the city's Designated Port Area declined by at least 12-15 boats.
Also during that period, the 56-berth Jodrey Fish Pier went from having a waiting list of eight vessels to an availability of five slips, according to the report's findings.
MassDevelopment, which operates the Jodrey State Fish Pier, disputed those numbers. Spokeswoman Kelsey Abbruzzese said the State Fish Pier still has a waiting list of 11 vessels despite two open berths each able to accommodate 100-foot vessels.
"None of the vessels on the waiting list are looking for a berth that size," Abbruzzese said.
That discrepancy aside, the fishing crisis, now entering its third full season, is a picture of flux and uncertainty, where the bad news seems to be snowballing with accelerating momentum.
"If there's one thing about the report that surprised me, it's the speed in which things can change," said Fisheries Commission Chairman Mark Ring. "That did surprise me."
That's one reason that Jack Wiggins, president of the Urban Harbor Institute, calls the report a "snapshot in time."
Wiggins said the fluid nature of the fishing crisis, with boats being sold and otherwise leaving the fleet while others — mostly lobster boats — make their way in, makes it difficult to determine the current demand and the future needs for dockage.

Melanie Brown took to the red carpet at the Lancashire County Cricket Club in Manchester, England, today (June 16) for the first X Factor UK auditions for 2014.
The former Spice Girl who joins the panel – which includes the returning Cheryl Cole – wore an Anthony Vaccarello Spring 2014 studded black skirt with a long-sleeved top.
While I'm glad she didn't wear the strapless top, I'm also thankful, for her sake, that the auditions are conducted with her behind a desk, because that micro skirt, hankie or whatever you call it will barely cover anything once seated.
Nude Louboutins and a simple ponytail completed her look.

Though the energy flags a little in the film's second half, overall the comedy feels nervy and original.
As with the 2002 movie that introduced us to the pair, director Michael Dowse (who co-wrote the script with Lawrence and Spence) makes it clear that these are loveable losers.
The FUBAR films are an experiment - can two knuckleheads really get by doing nothing but partying and drinking beer? And is it believable? You bet it is.
I've got a bunch of Canadian friends, and everything about this film feels so real, despite being so over-the-top insane.
...a clever, complicated comedy which plays like a performance from a far off distant galaxy.
Gets better as it goes along, although I was never rolling on the floor with laughter.
Really a series of comedy episodes, which I appreciate because why waste precious joke time trying to have a plot?
Audience Reviews for Fubar: Balls to the Wall
Fubar 2 is an extremely funny film by director Michael Dowse and like the first Fubar, this one is destined to become a Canadian Cult Classic.
The film is just as funny as the first one, except now, the film is a bit more theatrical, meaning it feels less like a documentary on the banger sub culture. Still the film has all the elements that made the first one so great. .This film redeems Canadian cinema after the very painful film Passchendaele directed by Paul Gross. Fubar 2 is the definitive redeeming film as it erases the mistakes made by Gross. Paul Spence and David Lawrence play Dean and Terry respectfully. If you loved the first Fubar, then you'll enjoy this second film.

Local donation helps shelter
The cats, dogs, and furry critters of the Kelowna BCSPCA shelter are once again receiving help from a local member of the community and his company.
Dale Lamb, with DKL Financial Services Inc. donated $1,500 to the branch to go towards the kennel/room sponsorship program.
Sponsorship for cat, dog or small animal spaces are available at different levels and are recognized with a plague on the wall/kennel thanking those who donated for their generosity.
Marni Adams, the Kelowna Branch Fund-raising Support Manager says Lamb is a big animal supporter who owns both dogs and cats so it may be tough for him to choose which kennel the donation will go to.
"Dale has been a huge supporter for many years and is very active with our annual gala as our Reception Sponsor," she says.
If you would like to help the animals of the Kelowna shelter please contact the branch located at 3785 Casorso Road, 250-861-7722.
