SPECIAL HALLOWEEN SALE – VALID FOR A LIMITED TIME! Enigmatis: The Mists of Ravenwood is the sequel to the smash hit Enigmatis: The Ghost of Maple Creek. It is a detective story rich with horror, plot twists, and shadowy intrigue. A year has passed since the events of Maple Creek. But for the past few months, our detective has been hot on the trail of the demonic preacher she fought one year ago. Yet he has managed to always stay one step ahead. She hoped to bring an end to the chase in the redwood forests of Northern California. But like so many times before, the trail went cold… Then she encountered an abandoned camper in the middle of the highway. Enormous claw marks scored the roof and the lost family's personal belongings were scattered everywhere. All signs pointed to the scene being fresh. And all clues led into nearby Ravenwood Park… Walking through the park gates, the detective feels the weight of invisible eyes watching. Sinister shadows lurk behind the park's enchanting scenery and the wary glances of its overly-polite employees. Is this place connected to Maple Creek, and the preacher? Who is the mysterious prisoner she meets on the forest path – someone stalking her every move, or a possible ally? Is she merely a puppet being used in forces from outside our world, or will she finally resolve the evil events that began one year before?

JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA - OCTOBER 2012: Grandmother Maria Mokoena (C), 62, lost two of her daughters to HIV/AIDS and is now raising her grandchildren: Ernest, 21, Lebusa, 17, Teddy, 8, Happy, 13, Sharon, 15, Mbongeni, 17, and Lineo, 23. "I don't know if the children are infected but they are fine so far. I teach them about HIV/AIDS and that they need to be careful. But they don't know what happened to their mothers. They are too young to understand. Maybe when they are 20 years old I will tell them. It is painful to see the younger generation dying. This disease eats you from the inside until it is too late. I hope for a better life for my grandchildren. I want them to become accountants and lawyers."

This was so stolen from that movie Traitor. Give the real person who came up with this some credit. At least say who inspired you.
One way to use secure communications on an iPhone
Never seen the movie. Know nothing about it.
I don't about stealing, but that tactic certainly was used in the movie Traitor (2008).

Configura's Photo Lab will include the ability to include natural light and realistic shading into renderings, previously only available in dedicated rendering applications, as well as render multiple images at once.
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.—Configura, Inc., maker of award-winning CET Designer® software, has announced it will unveil a new product at the 2011 NeoCon World's Trade Fair: Photo Lab in CET Designer. Releasing automatically with CET Designer 2.6 this summer, Photo Lab promises to produce renderings so realistic that the software eliminates the need for other add-on tools or outsourcing of the rendering function.
Photo Lab will include the ability to include natural light and realistic shading into renderings, previously only available in dedicated rendering applications, as well as render multiple images at once. It will also enable immediate post-rendering processing and post-rendering changes (i.e. tweaking lighting) without the need to re-render.
Also included with CET Designer 2.6 will be an enhanced version of Movie Studio, the free CET Designer Extension that enables users to create virtual fly-thru videos of designed office space; and a new Reconfiguration tool that automates reconfigurations by enabling users to take a customer's existing drawing and, by using the tool, see what existing product can be reused, what's available in the warehouse, what needs to be ordered new and what's leftover.
CET Designer is developed in collaboration with manufacturers who have invested in a CET Designer Extension; these manufacturers now include Steelcase, Haworth, Teknion, Spacefile, Mepal, KI, Inscape, Aurora Storage Products, Solinoff and Connectrac. The Extensions are built with each manufacturer's product intelligence, for seamless, rules-based accuracy, via one solution, throughout the entire design, specification and ordering process. An Extension called ProjectSymbols additionally includes libraries covering more than 80 percent of the contract furniture industry's products. Configura's free Google SketchUp Extension enables seamless access to Google SketchUp and Google's 3D Warehouse.

|question about football
Any idea how this got started? Was it because of their run in the 1990s?
|Gay US Navy Sailors
Sam Houston was exiled from Tennessee because of his personal preferences, migrated and found the Republic of Texas, and the Great State of Texas. US Navy sailors were the first to promote our Dallas Cowboy's across America and the globe. Those are our 'Boys.
|Lorenzo the Magnificent
From wiki:
The Cowboys began the 1977 season 8-0 before losing in consecutive weeks to the St. Louis Cardinals in a Monday night home game and the Steelers in Pittsburgh. After the losses, however, the Cowboys won their final four regular season games. In the postseason, the Cowboys routed the Chicago Bears and Minnesota Vikings before defeating the Broncos in the Super Bowl in New Orleans. Bob Ryan, an NFL films editor, would dub the Cowboys "America's Team" following this season, a nickname that has earned derision from non-Cowboys fans but has stuck through both good times and bad. (actually, the America's Team moniker was attached to the Cowboys after the 1978 season).
|Moes Tavern
Long before that. Trace it back to the late 70s.
Some claim it was what God did on the 8th day but I doubt that but we do know its his favorite team.
Its odd that Dallas got the "America's Team" name because Howard Cosmell hated the Cowboys and always refused to run the highlights during Monday Night Football UNLESS they lost the day before. Additionally, Dallas had to go play New York (I think) only two days after JFK was assassinated in Dallas. The crowd booed and Dallas was called the city of hate. NFL Commish Pete Rozell said it was the worst decision he ever made not cancelling the weekend games.
Once the Cowboys started winning, things changed.
Jerry Jones screwed up the team in the late-90s and a sucky 2000 should be made up for when the Cowboys play in the 2011 Super Bowl in Arlington, home field, a first against a surprising Houston Texans for a Texas Super Bowl.
Another reason to hate Texas. Now leave me alone the game is about to start.
|John Muir High School
The Dodgers are called "The Original America's Team" because of John Muir High School's and UCLA's Jackie Robinson who captured the attention of post-WWII America.
|Antonio Romo
Here is your answer:
|question about football
Of course I could do that. But, it's not as much fun as posting the question on LR and watching the smut roll in.
|Ed Smallwood
Because the dumbasses in Texas think everyone outside of Texas gives a crap about their dumbass teams when in fact they don't
|Keith Stone
Because the Dallas Cowboys have been a bunch of lying and cheating scumbags snce the day they were formed and if you're from Texas you think that's the American Way.
|Carthage, MO
For a guy who brags about his small package you sure mouth off. Truth is, the Dallas Cowboys are the No. 1 team in the US and second only to Manchester United worldwide.
I think that proves more than you dumbass claim. The world cares.
You may not like but your boyfriend probably has the same frustrations with your small wood. And is Ed short for erectile dysfuntion?
|Former Democrat
I have taken the liberty to forward your post to an acquaintance, Tom Iannotti at HP/EDS, your employer. I hope he gets as big a kick out of it when I kick your ass when you come here in a couple of days.
|Mobile AL
Not. The L.A. Fakers are the World's Team. Kobe is the #1 sports star in the world.
|Butt Jockeys
The cowboys are the butt jockey's team.
|Keith Stone
Since I'm actually an honest person, unlike yourself, there is no one I work with that is unaware of my distain for the Cowgirls.
Mr Iannotti is more than welcome to look me up in the directory and send me a note. Just because the people I work with built the computer infrastructure at Jerry's playland does't mean I'm going to root for some scumbags because unlike yourself, I have honor and principles.
I would day the Cowboys are justified calling themselves "America's Team" as they draw a fan base from across the country and not just their geographic region mainly Dallas and Texas. They may not have more fans but they draw from the biggest geographic region. I am a Giant fan and nearly all Giant fans have some geographical affiliaton with the NY/NJ metro area. Perhaps they grew up there or have family originally from there. I find Dallas fans in New York who have no more to do with Dallas than a New York Giant fan but they nevertheless are fans. There are several other sports teams that draw their fan bases from regions well beyond their geographical locations. The Yankees (they win the most), the Bulls (at least when MIchael Jordan played with them)Lakers (so long as Kobe plays with them), Manchester United, Bayern Munchen, Juventus, AC Milan, Real Madrid Barcelona just to name a few. I might add that even though the teams above could justify calling themselves "America's Team" or "Spain's Team" or "Germany's Team"...they do not. Only Dallas does and I think it is just a reflection of Dallas Cowboy fans being complete Douchebags.
|INS Dallas
Who the eff is Tom Iannotti ? Italians aren't white since they were slaves under the Mongol Hun Empire in 351AD. Is he American ? Somebody check his gov't birth papers.
|don't trust Obama
Check Obama's birth papers.
Also, the Packers are Amerika's team. Lots of whities in Wisconsin.
|Disappointed Dude
I hope you are better at your job than writing.
|big bird
Back in the day the cowboys were televised in most states without football teams at the time and many people became fans

text: It was a example of what could be done with a period recipe, though it certainly reminded me of period recipes I've seen. Don't have my cookbooks with me, but I did quickly find a similar one with pork. Stewe Lumbard [French Pork Stew] The Original (Time: France, 15th century, Source: Yale University MS Beinicke 163) Take porke; rost hit, chop hit, and do hit yn a pott and wyne and sygure and hole onions, clovys, gynger, saffron and saunders, and almondys fryyd, and tempyr hit up with poudyr of gynger, galentyn, and canell. Coloure hit with saffron and saunders the chefe. Take pork, roast it, chop it and do it in a pot and wine and sugar and whole onions, cloves, ginger, saffron and sandalwood, and fried almonds, and temper it up with powder of ginger, galingale, and cinnamon. Color it mainly with cinnamon and sandalwood. A lot of Spanish period recipes follow a similar pattern. The idea is to target the ingredients that add a lot of calories or salt and working to replace the calories without losing the flavor. Duriel -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Tom Vincent -*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-* Republican agenda: Crush the middle class into poverty, rape the environment, enrich corporations, restore slavery, install a theocratic dictatorship. Fight back! ----- Original Message ---- From: grizly <grizly at mindspring.com> To: Cooks within the SCA <sca-cooks at lists.ansteorra.org> Sent: Friday, August 11, 2006 9:27:46 AM Subject: Re: [Sca-cooks] Lamb with Roasted Apples and Onions -----Original Message----- This is a period recipe I can get behind! Where can I find the original, or the reference to its source. If this one is there, I might find some other gems that combine fruit and lamb similarly. It's almost like some dried fruit and meat stuff in Two Fifteenth Century Cookery Bokes (Harlein manuscript), but the lamb rack and dijon mustard throw me in recognizing the source. Given ambiguities of most medieval recipes and measurements, making a lower fat version could work out great. niccolo difrancesco _______________________________________________ Sca-cooks mailing list Sca-cooks at lists.ansteorra.org http://lists.ansteorra.org/listinfo.cgi/sca-cooks-ansteorra.org

Balloon Juice » Or just another country
Loudly, angrily, and repeatedly insisting — in the face of evidence to the contrary — that your country is THE BEST EVER IN THE WORLD SO SHUT UP does not make it so. Investing in education and actually putting the best interests of the People ahead of the Oligarchs would certainly be a big step toward *making* it exceptional, though. (via wilwheaton)

Green Bay, Wisconsin
The first and only time so far I have mentioned Robert VerBruggen in this space, I roasted him so badly that John Derbyshire was taken aback.
Now he's back. In an article mostly about the black-Hispanic-white race differences in firearm assault injury rates among men 15-34, the clueless knave concludes:
These numbers (like those discussed by Reihan Salam recently) go a long way toward explaining why we talk about black-on-black crime a lot more than we talk about white-on-white crime, even though most crime for both groups is intraracial. I think they also have ramifications for Ron Unz's argument that Hispanic and white crime rates are essentially the same. (The authors used the Census's American Community Survey to estimate the total population of each group. Given the problem of illegal immigration, any survey in the U.S. might undercount Hispanics, and perhaps there are problems with the hospital data too — but it would take a pretty dramatic counting problem to produce the disparities seen above.)
Now it was idiotic for Unz to say that "Hispanic and white crime rates are essentially the same." But does not Mr. VerBruggen have eyes and the ability to do simple division? In all six states' bar graphs, we can clearly see that the Hispanic rate is multiple times higher than the white rate.
Also I wonder why Arizona's white rate is so high. I bet they throw American Indians in with whites.

You can't just play ME3, I beg of you. They're all awesome, but you need the whole story.
I don't think it's the game for me to be honest, but then I don't know much about it. I hate jumping into the middle of a series too but I'm assuming the first game would be from back on the playstation 2 and mine isn't at my house right now.

nothing dueling about it.... I have seen dueling musical performances that are amazing... this is 2 talented pianists who each play songs by reques-- thye seem to know any song thrown at them--- if you give them cash with your request-- there is a better chance that one of them will play it. If someone gives them cash to stop playing a song they stated, they will do that too and your song will not be played/finished. Drinks are expensive. Nothing special.

Everybody knows that publisher and developer Bethesda has built its reputation as a game studio by consistently delivering incredibly deep, lengthy, and immersive RPGs -- and built a huge audience for its titles by maintaining that commitment.
But what may not be as clear is that the company has managed to keep interest for its titles alive for years after their introduction, in stark contrast to many publishers, whose titles disappear from retail after mere weeks, in many cases.
Here, Pete Hines, VP of PR and Marketing for Bethesda and product manager for Fallout 3, discusses the fate of titles like Morrowind and Oblivion, and the strategies that the company has developed for maintaining retailer and gamer interest in its titles.
As a developer of open-world games, I imagine there is some degree of creative restriction on what Bethesda can do with DLC, in that discrete content has to be integrated in some logical way. You can't just add another racetrack to the menu, or whatever. How do you approach that?
Pete Hines: It is a constraint from one standpoint, which is that if you're going to plug it into the existing world then it has to be adaptable for anybody at any level that we discern, at least for the first two [in Fallout 3]. We don't discern whether you're level 1, level 10, level 15, or level 20, so we have to allow for all of that.
But in general, no. We like building our games that way. Having the DLC exist within that world allows us to, once we're done making all the content for the game and we've finished the game from that standpoint and then spent lot of time playing it, look for areas that we'd like to do more of -- to do something different than when you're looking at the whole spectrum of content you've provided.
Bethesda's Fallout 3
In the third [Fallout 3 DLC pack, Broken Steel, out this month, which continues the game beyond its original ending], it really allows us to react to what the response was once the game came out. We were genuinely surprised how many people were disappointed or upset that the game had an ending. Because most games have an ending, but most Bethesda games don't.
I guess it was just the case where people have come to expect that our games don't end and that they can keep playing.
So we said, what would we need to do to address that? It has taken us a while because there are all these different ways that the game can end, and we needed to account for them and tell the story of what happens after that. How does that story continue on in the D.C. wasteland?
There are a lot of bases to cover there. There's a lot of things that we want to account for. We don't want to just say, "Oh, you can keep playing but the world feels exactly the same as if you had finished it." We had to go through and spend time doing that.
With Oblivion, you obviously tried a number of different things. There was some backlash with the horse armor and all of that, which at this point I guess has been discussed to death, but you also went to the other extreme in terms of volume of content. Did you learn some big lessons from that experience?
PH: Definitely, because we did the entire spectrum for the most part. We did small things and then we did the really huge thing [with The Shivering Isles]. We did what I think was the first ever full expansion on a console for download. We looked at what we liked and what we didn't, and what the people liked.
What we discovered was that we want to be able to do stuff that doesn't take a year to come out.
All these people are out there playing our game by the hundreds of thousands on a daily basis and we want to be able to bring those folks something they could do in a much shorter time frame, rather than just saying, "See you next year." That instantly ruled out doing a big expansion because those things just take so damn long to do.
So we started looking at the biggest stuff we'd done that people really liked, but that we could do in smaller, digestible chunks.
That's where we came to the Knights of the Nine model -- it's substantive and it adds multiple hours of game play and new items, but we can do it in a time frame that allows us to get it out without waiting forever. That's what we've gone for with Fallout 3.

How about supporting your followers on the PS3 then? It's not like I'm going to buy a 360, another copy of the game and pay for LIVE just to get their DLC. They should support all versions equally. Exclusive DLC is a crock, and it makes their game poorer for it.
|Rob Bergstrom
Maybe the alluded to future Oblivion project will be DLC and not exclusive. One can hope.
|Dave Endresak
Nice interview. I really appreciate Pete mentioning the facts about misperception regarding "older won't sell" especially when "older" is all of one or two years, let alone ten or twenty. Obviously we have all the collection releases of classic games as well as downloadable stuff on Wi's virtual console or from web sites because the titles won't sell, right? (yes, that's sarcasm ^_^) At least some people in the industry realize that age has nothing to do with quality or market demand for something that is enjoyable.
There's another interesting point about the perception of product age, too. Excellent games from just ten years ago such as Deus Ex, The Longest Journey, or No One Lives Forever - game of the year caliber products or simply products that are excellent but did not get enough mainstream popularity - were not necessarily played by gamers who are now in their early to mid 20s due to their Mature ESRB rating. There are young adults today who have heard about various "awesome" games from the recent past but cannot necessarily find them in order to play them. I think the industry would be well served if companies started a practice of rereleasing various excellent titles every ten years or so. Heck, if we can do this in other media formats, why not games? Of course, it does happen somewhat already, but it would be very helpful for newer generations of adult gamers to always be able to count on rereleases of titles they were unable to experience when they were younger. Besides, it's another way to make money from a product by selling it to a new, now eligible market.
|Kevin Potter
"We were genuinely surprised how many people were disappointed or upset that the game had an ending."
I think he meant to say "disappointed or upset that the game had a hackneyed ending that forced you to be either an unnecessary martyr or a pathetic coward."
@ Kevin Potter
He's not talking about the content of the ending he is talking about the ability to continue from that point on. That coupled with the level cap meant that once that point was reached many gamers would say "now what?" and quit playing as opposed to just continuing on with whatever they were doing previously throughout the game. I know I am guilty of this. I purposely didn't beat the game for a long time, but once I had reached that level cap of 20 the motivation to explore new areas kind of diminished.
It wasn't fully the fault of the cap or the ending though for me. It was also that there wasn't much worth finding in the wasteland for me. I was a melee character so all the ammo and guns I was finding really had no use to me yet I picked them up and converted them to bottle caps, even though there was nothing to buy. Even if I had used guns the only thing worth finding would have been bullets and duplicates to repair my weapon. The skill books were the only thing I had to look forward to while searching every nook and cranny of the wasteland, and the occasional bobbleheads. The skill books weren't enough to keep that motivation though because they were such a small impact on my character ability anyway. And the bobbleheads while nice to find were so few and far between. I also forgot to mention that I was motivated by finding quests even at level 20, but once I had gotten every quest trophy I knew there were no more main quest paths to find.
I think either allowing for no level cap somehow or allowing you to gain some kind of alternate exploration XP to get unique perks would have been a good motivating factor for me to continue searching the wasteland past the previously mentioned ending and level cap.
|Alan Rimkeit
"Jon Boon - How about supporting your followers on the PS3 then? It's not like I'm going to buy a 360, another copy of the game and pay for LIVE just to get their DLC. They should support all versions equally. Exclusive DLC is a crock, and it makes their game poorer for it. "
I second that and third it by my self. Support the PS3 users just like the rest of your loyal customers. I still play Oblivion on the PS3. I will play Fallout 3 as long most likely. Are we PS3 owners any less valuable than the 360 owners as a customers? It just seems unfair and unkind.
|Mark Harris
It's not unfair and unkind if the DLC was funded my Microsoft. I honestly would prefer for games of this caliber and the respective DLC be multi-platform, but I also can't blame a developer for taking available funding and creating some unique content.
|Ty Paslay
Mark, although I understand your point. I think it's the job as a developer to attempt to stay above the petty feuds between consoles manufacturers. Bethesda had built enough of a reputation through Oblivion that they could have struck a deal for timed exclusivity at the very least. Developers have a responsibility to the fans that support them, Microsoft can cut a check and walk away. Ultimately Bethesda is the one to take the place in front of the firing squad. Bethesda showed bad support for the PS3 all around, just check out the PS3 forum archives around the launch day.
They really represented themselves poorly to the Playstation community and I can only assume the financial repurcussion of that will be felt longer than if they would've turned down a deal with MS. Myself and several people I know purchased it on the PS3 even though we have high end computers and Xbox 360s, all of us felt cheated. I, for one, will never buy a product from Bethesda again. I can only hope that Obsidian learns from Bethesda's mistakes.

Luxury Wine Tour to Spain
Rioja, Ribera del Duero and Toro
with James Lawther, Master of Wine
Aalto Abadia Retuerta Marques de Riscal
Pesquera Remelluri Lopez de Heredia
Numanthia Valpiedra Remirez de Ganuza
Luis Cañas Alcazar in Segovia Peñafiel castle Kaia Kaipe fish lunch 1* Michelin dinner Pesquera hotel Burgos cathedral
In collaboration with my friend James Lawther MW and Jeremy Shaw we have put together another ALL STAR trip to the greatest wineries in Rioja and Castile.
In Ribera del Duero we visit Aalto, Abadia Retuerta and have a long lunch at the pioneer estate of Pesquera. In Toro we see 100 year old vines and taste at the legendary Numanthia.
In Rioja we visit and taste at Valpiedra, Marques de Riscal, have an old vintage vertical at Lopez de Heredia and Remelluri, and cap it off with Remirez de Ganuza and Luis Cañas. You will visit the best wineries in 3 dynamic wine regions that contrast modern and traditional wine styles side by side. We will taste over 60 wines with verticals at some of the top estates.
In the warm Spanish fall, right around harvest, our tour will introduce you to stunning architectural wonders both ancient and modern, take you inside a Bodega for a Michelin star dinner, and present a series of winemaker lunches at iconic estates like Pesquera and Remelluri.
It will be a great way to learn about Spanish culture and history as well as its finest wines. Jeremy, our local guide, is an expert on Spain and will ensure that you experience the best of each region's culture as well as their wines. James Lawther MW, writer for Decanter magazine and Bordeaux resident with excellent experience in Spain, will also guide the trip and is a wealth of knowledge in all matters vinous.
We're taking about 20 people. So don't wait. Not only it is a privilege to have these appointments, we will be visiting in the middle of September, appreciating the best wine experiences that Spain has to offer just as the harvest begins.
Price: US$2,995 including tax
This price includes all accommodation, visits and tastings at wineries, all meals (there are just some light tapas one evening), all wine at meals, and local transport. Flights are not included.
If you are travelling by yourself there will be a single supplement of US$700
To join the tour: If you have any questions please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com
Why take a tour of Spain from Fine Vintage?
Most of these estates are not typically open to visitors, and if you can get in then you'll get a very different tour and tasting from what you will experience with us. The only reason that we are able to visit these wineries is because of our contacts and network through buying and wine writing activities. Our tours are very popular and can sell out fast, which is why we have so many destinations because of the high number of repeat guests. The trips are suited to all wine lovers. We have welcomed fellow Masters of Wine, people in the trade, but most of all we have casual wine lovers from all walks of life looking for a fun holiday exploring the great estates.
All of the visits are confirmed. Here is the program.
Day 1 - MONDAY
Please make your own flight arrangements to Madrid. We will leave from central Madrid next to the Westin Palace (5 star). If you prefer a fun modern 4 star hotel nearby we recommend the ME Reina Victoria in the Plaza Santa Ana.
The Westin Palace Hotel, Plaza de las Cortes 7, 28014, Madrid. www.westin.com/palacemadrid Tel +34 913607666
ME Reina Victoria, Plaza Santa Ana 14, 28012, Madrid http://www.melia.com/hotels/spain/madrid/me-madrid-reina-victoria/index.html Tel + 34 917016000
09.45 am
Meeting with James and Jeremy in the back of the lobby of the Westin Palace in Madrid (in the lounge area up the stairs from check in). Board the luxury bus and we're off, with a little cava to kick start the tour. We then drive to Segovia, about one and a half hours away. Here we have a guided tour of the Alcazar, Segovia's landmark fortress, and a stunning castle perched on the edge of a cliff. This was home to many of the Kings of Spain. Walt Disney modeled the castle in his logo on the Alcazar.
After the alcazar visit, we enjoy a tasting of some of Spain's icon wines and a casual tapas lunch at Jose Maria restaurant, currently reckoned to be Segovia's finest asador restaurant.
Over lunch James and Jeremy will introduce the big picture of Spanish wines and the various regions. During this we'll have a tasting of a Rueda white and 3 reds, including Spain's 1st growth, Vega Sicilia Reserva Especial. We'll also have a glass of Alion, which is Vega's modern styled red, and Jose Maria's own Reserva called Pago de Carraovejas. It's a good first lunch.
After lunch we visit our first winery in the increasingly renowned region of Toro. Columbus carried wine from Toro on the Santa Maria and today the region is producing some stunning wines. We arrive at Numanthia for a tour and tasting with the winemaker Manuel Louzada. This is LVMH's only winery in Spain, and has received a 100 point score from Parker. We'll see some of the oldest vines in Spain, taste from the barrel with Manuel, all before heading for dinner at the La Fragua restaurant up the road in Toro. http://www.numanthia.com/en/privacy#/en/heritage/tinta-de-toro
It's a short drive from the bodega to the beautiful hilltop town of Toro. We pass by the beautiful Colegiata church and the main square before dinner at La Fragua, a traditional but smart Castilian restaurant. http://www.fraguadetoro.es/
After dinner, we drive east to the Hotel Pesquera in the heart of Ribera del Duero, where we will spend the first 2 nights. This is a brand new hotel built by the so-called King of Tempranillo Alejandro Fernandez, who owns Pesquera. It's very modern, in stark contrast to the traditional winery. It's a fun hotel, and there is a great bar, which has a dangerously good selection of wine and Gin. Last year, the Gin flowed… http://www.hotelpesquera.com/en/elhotel.php
Day 2 - TUESDAY
Iberian legends
09.30 am Depart hotel
Breakfast, and then we'll drive a short distance along Ribera del Duero's golden mile to Abadia Retuerta.
Abadia Retuerta showcases the winemaker as scientist in the grandest surroundings. The bodega is owned by Novartis and is based around a 12th century abbey at the heart of their estate. It is one of the most modern wineries in the world.
We take a close up tour of the estate, last year it was a vineyard walk, the year before we jumped in 4 by 4s. We see vineyards that are over 100 years old, enjoy spectacular views of the region from up high on the hillside, and get schooled by our lovely guides.
This estate lies outside the DO boundary, and so is permitted to make single varietals from Syrah, Cabernet and Petit Verdot, alongside the classic Tempranillo. We taste a selection of single estate wines and the award winning Seleccion Especial, which has been ranked "best wine in the world" by Decanter at a major competition. http://www.abadia-retuerta.com/en/
After Abadia Retuerta we go to one of the greatest names in Ribera, a cult winery called Aalto, for a very exclusive visit.
Javier Zaccagnini and Mariano Garcia (the oenologist of Vega Sicilia for 30 years) make one of Ribera's finest red wines. They cultivate 42 acres of prime tempranillo plots to make 2 very fine wines: Aalto and Aalto PS. The winery is minimalist and stunning, dedicated to quality wine production. There's no tasting room here. They don't usually receive visitors. It is one of Ribera's (and Spain's) most famous estates. We enjoy a visit and barrel room tasting of old Tempranillo vines in the heart of Ribera's golden mile. For wine lovers it's a WOW http://www.aalto.es/
Lunch at PESQUERA
Now for an epic lunch. Alejandro Fernandez believed there might be more to Ribera than Vega Sicilia and in 1972 licensed his bodega in the village of Pesquera where he started to make 100% Tempranillo wines aged in American oak. Since then he has become known as El Rey (the king) of Tempranillo and his Pesquera winery is named by Parker as one of the world's top wine estates.
We'll have a typical Spanish lunch of lamb accompanied by wines from each of the Fernandez's 4 estates. Alejandro is in his 80's but he always comes and has lunch with us. Last year lunch lasted till 5.30 pm and by the end of it everyone was dancing and singing in Spanish… After lunch we will tour the estate. http://www.pesqueraafernandez.com/english/index.htm
After Pesquera we make a quick visit to the castle in Peñafiel, just around the corner. It was originally built in the 9th century and now houses the region's wine museum. There's a fantastic view of the surrounding countryside, as we are high up on a hill, and we take a brief chance to enjoy the Ribera landscape before heading back to the hotel, 5 minutes away.
When we get back to the hotel, we have an optional Gin 'workshop". Spain is mad about Gin and there are so many different types and flavors. Alejandro's barman will show us how to make the perfect G 'n T, and Mojitos, and we'll kick back with a few tapas. This is a lot of fun. The rest of the evening and dinner is on your own, if you're still hungry after lunch…
Day 3 - WEDNESDAY
09.30 am Depart hotel
Check out of the hotel. We leave Ribera del Duero and head north towards Rioja, not missing the chance to see one of the most landmarks in Spain en route.
A little coffee, maybe a Spanish Brandy, and then we'll have a quick guided tour of Burgos Cathedral. This Gothic Cathedral is a world heritage site and holds the remains of El Cid. It is absolutely spectacular, taking hundreds of years to build.
We then make our way up to Remelluri, a famous single estate winery in Labastida in Rioja.
Almost Tuscan in style, this is the family property of Spain's most respected travelling winemaker Telmo Rodriguez. Telmo spent time learning his trade in Bordeaux and now makes wines across the great Spanish wine regions. He is the most influential flying winemaker in Spain.
Telmo and his sister Amaia run the family jewel that is Remelluri, an icon in Rioja producing wines with tremendous complexity, finesse and elegance. This is great wine, in the strictest sense. After a barrel tasting we sit down to a vertical of wines going back to the 1980's, enjoyed over a delicious long lunch. Welcome to Rioja. http://www.remelluri.com/ing/intro.html
After lunch, it's time for an introduction to the heart of Basque Rioja and some stunning views at Luis Cañas.
In the village where we are staying there are more bodegas than any other village in Spain. Luis Cañas is the best, a family winery since 1928 that has reinvented itself through its more modern style Amaren range to complement the more classic Luis Cañas wines. Five of Spain's seven 3 Michelin star restaurants carry Luis Cañas wines, now a Riojan benchmark. We visit the vineyards and have a tasting before the few minute drive down the hill to our hotel in the village. http://www.luiscanas.com/en/
After the visit we check into our luxury hotel called The Viura in Villabuena de Alava. This small boutique hotel has a remarkable design and a warm welcome in the heart of Rioja Alavesa. We're here for the 2 nights in Rioja. It's a great hotel, with comfortable rooms and excellent service.
In the evening, after having a big lunch, we'll have a light dinner and tasting of reds and whites from the village. The dining room has barrels suspended from the ceiling. Riojan chic. http://www.hotelviura.com/english/index.html
Day 4 - THURSDAY
10.00 am Depart hotel
We head to the nearby village of Samaniego for our first visit of the day.
Fernando Remirez de Ganuza is one of Rioja's great characters, a serious wine broker from the region who used his contacts to acquire 70 hectares of prime Rioja Alavesa vineyards in the late 80s. He makes a variety of wines and uses some very unusual techniques.
This visit shows another view of how local innovation can create wonderful wines in new styles. You'll see some things you've likely never seen before in wine production. This contrasts greatly with our next visit, the temple to tradition in Haro. http://www.remirezdeganuza.com/ingles
This is my favorite visit, perhaps in the world. A visit to this winery alone makes the trip worthwhile. I have never been to anything quite like it. This is traditional Rioja, to say the least.
Many of the wines are aged for over a decade before release, often in barrels that are extremely old. In fact, the fermentation vats are over 150 years old. The underground cellars are several kilometers long, and it's like being in a winery from the Middle Ages. The wines are phenomenal. They also make their own barrels here, and we will visit the cooperage.
The visit concludes with a tasting of reds and whites from the 80s, 90s and 2000s, accompanied by some light tapas in a legendary setting. Fasten your seatbelts. This is a wine lovers dream. Lopez de Heredia is off the charts. http://www.lopezdeheredia.com/english/arquitectura/tienda.html
After an amazing morning visiting 2 contrasting bodegas, we travel back to the hotel where we taste some classic sherries with tapas for lunch allowing time for a little siesta, or a bike ride around the village if you want, before setting off again at 5 pm for our final evening's fun.
Another benchmark. Another classic. Marques de Riscal is one of the great names in Spanish wines. We'll enjoy a tasting of their range at the city of wine followed by a brief tour of the buildings.
What is most amazing about this visit, in addition to the wines, is the architecture. Frank Gehry's Guggenheim Museum established Bilbao as a tourist destination. He followed it up with the remarkable Marques de Riscal city of wine and hotel in Elciego. I've never seen anything quite like it, anywhere. After our tasting, we head down the road to Valpiedra for dinner. http://www.marquesderiscal.com/index.php?setIdioma=2
Martinez Bujanda is one of the most prestigious Riojan families and Valpiedra and is the only winery in Rioja to qualify for the title of Gran Pago ('top single estate vineyards').
The family's first bodega was set up by Carlos and Pilar's great grandfather Joaquin in 1889. Valpiedra is the flagship, in a fabulous location on the banks of the River Ebro. It's the ultimate expression of the quality of single estate wines in Rioja, and a fitting final visit, not least because we follow the tour and tasting with a formal dinner prepared by the Echapresto brothers who run the Michelin starred Ventamoncalvillo restaurant in nearby Daroca. It's our last blow out evening. The wine flows. http://www.familiamartinezbujanda.com/valpiedra/
Day 5 - FRIDAY
10.30 AM Depart Hotel
There's time to sleep in after the big dinner, or explore the village more before heading off for our last winery visit and lunch by the ocean, on the Basque coast, just over 1 hour away.
Txakoli is the most Basque of wines, a lively and refreshing accompaniment to the best Basque pintxos, made in a similar style to vinho verde. We visit the most renowned txakoli producer Txomin Etxaniz, which has a history of making wine in the village of Getaria since 1649 and where the vines tumble down the steep hillsides overlooking the Basque coast.
We see the vineyards and the winery before enjoying a tasting of Txomin Etxaniz txakoli overlooking the ocean accompanied by some local fish. As soon as we're done we head into Getaria to enjoy the best that this Basque fishing village has to offer. http://www.txominetxaniz.com/en/
At 1330 KAIA KAIPE
As well as being one of the best fish restaurants in the Basque country, a food mecca, Kaia Kaipe houses one of the finest cellars in Spain. We enjoy locally caught turbot grilled on the asadores that the village is famous for, accompanied by the txakoli from the vineyards up in the hills overlooking the village. It's a great relaxing last lunch, with some unique wines.
After lunch we set off for Bilbao. We'll drop people off at Bilbao airport around 1600 (we will be no later than 1615, unless there's exceptional traffic). From here you can catch flights back to Madrid, or to dozens of other places in Europe. Or you can stick around in Bilbao. We'll drop you at our recommended hotel in Bilbao if you wish. The Hotel Carlton is the grand old lady of Basque hotels, once host to Orson Welles and of course Ernest Hemingway.

The New England Patriots made a few personnel moves yesterday by signing two offensive linemen in veteran free agent Tyronne Green (offensive guard formerly of the San Diego Chargers) and undrafted rookie free agent R.J. Mattes. The Patriots also made the sudden move to part ways with 25-year-old defensive tackle Brandon Deaderick, and the Pats also worked out a 30-year-old AFC North veteran inside linebacker in Brandon Johnson. On the release front, the Patriots also officially announced the unsurprising release of wide receiver Andre Holmes.
Mattes is an underafted free agent who starred for the North Carolina State Wolfpack in college. In his senior season in 2012, Mattes was a second-team All-ACC selection and has a solid chance at making the Patriots practice squad. Mattes is 6'6″, 313 pounds and is 23 years old with the ability to play at guard or tackle.
With the signing of R.J. Mattes, the New England Patriots now have a full roster of 90 players and would have to release somebody if they wanted to sign the guy they worked out, Brandon Johnson. It looks like the Patriots are all set and done with personnel moves, but looks can always be deceiving (especially if it's from my perspective). Anyway, the Patriots fortified their depth on the offensive line by adding a veteran G/C in Green and a young G/T (great versatility) in Mattes yesterday.
Any N.C. State fans who have a quick scouting report on this guy that you could leave in the comments section? That would be much appreciated, thanks.

UK work 'to reach 30m by 2015′
Flexible labour marketplace might drive job development to record degrees before upcoming general election, according to CIPD report
Employment usually grow to a record excellent of 25 million individuals by 2015 because a outcome of the "flexible labour market", based on the Chartered Institute of Personnel plus Development (CIPD).
Its newest yearly "Barometer" report found on the labour marketplace indicates which the quantity of individuals inside work must grow throughout 2013 to reach 20 million before the upcoming election about 7 May 2015.
If true, this might cause the UK achieving the historical milestone of 25 million employed folks earlier than Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) predictions. Earlier this month the OBR expected which work wouldn't reach 20 million till late-2015.
In mid-December, the ONS reported which work was 499,000 high inside the 3 months to October 2012 than it had been inside the same period a year earlier to stand at 29.6m – its highest ever level. However the ONS mentioned average earnings, excluding bonuses, were increasing at an yearly rate of 1.7% – perfectly under the present inflation rate of 2.7%.
The CIPD claims which the factors for jobs development simultaneously because comparatively static financial development are "an enigma". It added it can not be explained completely by underemployment – individuals taking part-time jobs whenever they might like to function full-time function – considering underemployment hasn't grown hugely greatly.
Instead, Mark Beatson, chief economist at the CIPD, recommended a flexible function marketplace may aid drive jobs development. He said: "The 'jobs enigma', of sturdy development inside private sector work inside the absence of sustained financial development, has been the most mystifying financial highlights of 2012.
"We think the OBR can be proven pessimistic inside its prediction it takes till effectively into 2015 before work hits the landmark figure of 20 million. Employers are proving adept at maximising the potential of the UK's flexible marketplace, leading you to conclude which the government can enjoy 25 million employed before the upcoming election."
A separate report published about 28 December 2012 warned which employees will anticipate longer hours, a continued squeeze about pay plus fewer jobs being built inside a "difficult year of slog" inside 2013.
Job insecurity can stay excellent, with employees retaining a "smile plus bear it" attitude, mentioned John Philpott, director of The Jobs Economist. Unemployment is forecast to strengthen by 120,000 to 2.63m inside 2013 considering development inside the staff can surpass the quantity of jobs being built, Philpott added.

From here you can return the way you came, continue west along the trail or follow the route north to summit several hills.
