USS Grandeur - One... More... Time!

Re: USS Grandeur - One... More... Time!
It is. Even ignoring my personal distaste of the big black sections it at least looks functional on the saucer, lacking windows and clearly appearing to serve a purpose. The section you have colored dark on the secondary hull looks arbitrarily painted-on in comparison. There are certainly opportunities to include the black on the secondary hull, but the current implementation is bordering on lazy and that isn't something I generally associate with your design choices.

Thunder, Nazr Mohammed agree to one-year extension
Jun 29, 2011, 2:11 PM EST
Oklahoma City wants to keep its defensive-minded rotation at center in place.
To that end, they have reached a one-year extension with Nazr Mohammed, according to the Oklahoman. Terms of the deal are not public, but as a 13-year veteran you can expect it to be in the $1.5 million to $2 million range. At age 34 next season, just a one-year deal makes sense.
Mohammed is a defense and rebounding backup center, a steady one you can count on which is why the Thunder traded for him mid-season. He along with Kendrick Perkins, Serge Ibaka and Nick Collison give the Thunder a number of defensive-minded, paint protecting bigs. That was part of the reason they advanced to the Western Conference Finals, where they ran into a hot jump shooting Mavericks team that fired away over the top of those bigs.
This is a good deal for the Thunder, who now move on to bigger fish (or will when the lockout ends) — they need to sign Russell Westbrook to an extension. It will be at or near the max they can offer under the new Collective Bargaining Agreement, whatever that number turns out to be.

Danielle Nay: 'An event needs talking points'
Danielle Nay has organised events for celebs such as Madonna, Ralph Lauren and Bob Geldof. She tells Suchitra Bajpai Chaudhary how she plans to redefine entertainment in the UAE
- Image Credit: Stefan Lindeque/ANM
- With a goal of redefining entertainment and event management in the UAE, Danielle believes in giving her clients a fun-filled event with never-seen-before glitter and edginess.
It occurred more than a decade ago, but it still remains in Danielle Nay's mind. "It was in 2000,'' says the head of transformers, an event content and rentals company in Dubai. "I was operating an event managing firm in the UK called Dr Party when I received a call from Sir Bob Geldof, the musician behind Live Aid. 'I'd like you to create an event for my 50th birthday party on the fifth of October,' he said. 'It should be unforgettable and sweep the guests off their feet.' He went on to tell me that he wanted a Moroccan-meets-Balinese-meets-Bollywood event,'' says Danielle.
She had just a fortnight to set up the event for a 300-strong guest list at Bob's country home in Kent. Ever willing to take on a challenge, Danielle agreed and set to work.
For the party, the lawns of his home were transformed into a spectacular world that could have been straight out of an Arab/Oriental movie. "I set up ornate tents decorated with silk brocade and arranged for succulent kebabs and oriental delicacies to be served," says Danielle. "There were talented belly dancers to entertain the crowds, and foot-tapping music with the likes of Sir Mick Jagger, Sting and Trudie Styler taking the stage.''
Bob was so delighted with the party that he asked Danielle to organise his 60th birthday as well. "He wanted it to be combined with his daughter Pixie's 21st birthday celebration," she says. "He also asked me to organise an event for his elder daughter Peaches' second marriage to singer Thomas Cohen."
Bob Geldof isn't the only celeb on Danielle's client list. With clients including designer Karen Millen, model and dancer Dita Von Teese and corporate giants such as Disney, Microsoft and the BBC to name a few, this Dubai-based 'event alchemist', as she prefers to call herself, has several A-listers on her speed dial.
Relocating to Dubai in 2009 after her husband Adrian Bell set up a communications agency here, Danielle first headed the communications division at an event management organisation, and then was the organiser of Barry Kirsch's Big Ball charity event, before setting up transformers in 2011.
With a goal of redefining entertainment and event management in the UAE, Danielle believes in giving her clients a fun-filled event with never-seen-before glitter and edginess. She tells Friday how she makes it all happen.
Successful event management requires creativity and organisational capabilities. A helping of diplomacy and charm goes a long way too. Many event management projects are basically about logistics. I only embrace the ones where we get to innovate in some small way. In the words of Apple: "Think Different!"
After my graduation in classics and modern languages in 1990, I joined as the personal assistant to Alan Crompton-Batt, a public relations consultant credited with creating the notion of the celebrity chef. He was the man who could turn chefs into stars.
Working there for three years gave me all the experience I required, and in 1996, I joined the UK broadcaster Channel 5 as their PR and events manager. My brief was to reinvent the network's communication division. It was a challenge as I had a very small team and had to create great ideas to publicise the channel.
It was during this time that I met the Spice Girls, who were not very well known at the time. They had just released Wannabe (their first single) and were on the cusp of success. We opened dialogue with them a few weeks later about fronting the launch. By the time we launched Channel 5 in Spring 1997, they were huge and our timing was brilliant. I had to pinch myself when the photo stunt we staged with them at Marble Arch in London made almost every newspaper front page in the UK.
My success with the channel helped me set up Dr Party in 1998, which was acquired by Bob Geldof's media group Ten Alps Communications in 2001. I continued as a director of their events division. I had great success in the six years that I ran it, putting on parties for Karen Millen, Ralph Lauren, Madonna and of course Bob.
"Another event that still stays in my mind is the one we did for Karen Millen's 40th birthday party, with a Moulin Rouge theme. We built a bridge over the swimming pool in her garden, floated candles and flowers in it, then erected a huge tent over the pool. Then we turned the structure into the Moulin Rouge set, complete with a heart-shaped doorway. The next morning when we returned to the house, we found a ceremonial sword – used to slice the fantastic Jane Asher cake – in the swimming pool. That has to be the sign of a good party.
At Peaches Geldof's wedding this year, her Golden Retriever Parper was the ring bearer. We were worried about whether Parper would be able to manage. That famous mantra, 'never work with children or animals' is one that I usually try to live by. However at the rehearsal, Parper (as the groom's father later wryly observed) was the only one to do exactly as he was told. He behaved impeccably on the day and looked great too, wearing a huge flower collar.
I've been lucky enough to work with some inspiring and fun people over the years, including Batman director Joel Schumacher, the Spice Girls and brands like Sony, Microsoft, Ralph Lauren and Gucci.
I've produced highly theatrical private parties and weddings for Madonna, author Martin Amis and, of course, for my favourite repeat clients, the Geldof family. Peaches Geldof's lovely country wedding was my latest production for them: it was full of vintage, cinematic touches and I'd describe the look as Federico Fellini meets Merchant Ivory.
While organising such mega events, you have to be very professional – get everything in writing as it saves any squabbling if someone doesn't deliver on the day. I prefer to visualise it all, and give a detailed list to my client. I also make sure I've got enough staff on hand so I'm free to enjoy the party.
I have a low boredom threshold, so for me, content is king at a party. I care a great deal about the little details. I think a good event needs talking points and photo opportunities, especially since the advent of social media where every event and experience seems to be shared in real time.
This is the fundamental insight that led me to start my Dubai-based events company, transformers. Our mission is to provide unique (often interactive) finishing touches to transform any gathering into event gold. The UAE is such a fascinating place to work, where great things can happen in the blink of an eye. I find it inspiring.
A large part of my work involves creating wonderful environments in which to entertain guests. I definitely get that passion from my mother Helen Andersen, a celebrity portrait painter-turned-fashion designer. She would also throw glamorous dinner parties and is the most creative person I know.
She would bake the most spectacular cakes for my birthdays. I recall one Goldilocks and the Three Bears cake, where she actually made rice-paper bedsheets, such was her attention to detail. I think my father Salvator, a retired TV producer and director, gave me the ability to weave a narrative and create a three-dimensional personal experience at my events.
We lived in Belgium until I was five and then we moved to Liverpool, where my mother owned a leather boutique.
By the time I was 14 I had already begun throwing my own parties and getting others to have fun. But back then I didn't know that I could actually do this for a living.
I graduated in classics and modern languages from New College, Oxford. My work is all about colour and visual spectacle, but at home I crave serenity. Our large apartment in Dubai Marina is decorated in calming neutral colours with flashes of glamour – the occasional chandelier or bespoke furniture piece.
I met my husband Adrian Bell, who now runs a live events and bespoke communications agency, in 2008 in London. Adrian and I moved to Dubai in 2009.
Not having children gives us time to enjoy the arts and leisure scene in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, which is gathering momentum.
We also love food and enjoy dining out and cooking at home for friends. We could probably do a better job of staying in shape, but we're looking forward to cooler sea temperatures so we can take up paddle boarding.
We travel as much as we can. Dubai is a great base for people with wanderlust! Of course everybody passes through sooner or later, so we often have house guests, be that business associates, friends or extended family.
The promenade below our home is the perfect place to walk a dog. This is good news for our one-year-old Lowchen, Freeway, who we named after the star of 1980s TV series Hart2Hart. He's a truly adorable creature, who I was obsessed with as a child.
I have always dreamt of being a proper, hands-on patron of art and design and writing in my spare time. I have about three books inside me that are bursting to get on to the page.
I desperately miss the London theatre, which was always such a rich source of inspiration. I'm looking forward to the day when Dubai has its own opera house and museum of modern art.
I am hoping to identify home grown, local talent to nurture and collaborate with on creative projects for our clients.
My personal dream is to write and also to work more with the arts in general, not necessarily anything to do with my work, but more as a writer and patron of the arts.

Government promises a top-up for HS2 compensation payouts
Thursday 25 October 2012
Compensation measures for residents affected by the London-Birmingham HS2 high-speed rail project will go "significantly beyond statutory requirements", the Government promised today.
The Government said it would buy any owner-occupied home in the "safeguarded area" - an area within 60 metres of the planned route.
As well as paying the unblighted value of the property, the Government is proposing to pay additional compensation of 10% up to the value of £47,000.
The safeguarded area includes 338 homes that will have to be demolished to make way for the first phase of HS2 which cuts through Tory heartlands and is bitterly opposed by some councils and many residents.
There are 483 rural residential properties within the safeguarded area as well as 340 urban residential properties and 278 business properties.
The Government, which will consult on the compensation package, is also establishing a voluntary purchase zone (VPZ) a further 60 metres outside the safeguarded zone in rural areas.
Within the VPZ homeowners can sell their homes at their full unblighted value. There are 788 homes and 25 business properties in this zone.
The Government also announced today:
* A long-term hardship scheme to help those with a need to move during the development of HS2 but who are unable to sell their home;
* A sale-and-rent-back scheme to give more flexibility to homeowners who wish to stay in properties which will ultimately be required to allow for construction work;
* A package of measures to provide clarity and reinforce confidence in properties above tunnels, including before and after surveys;
* A commitment to work with local authorities, housing associations and affected tenants to develop a strategy for replacing any lost social rented housing.
HS2 is expected to be completed around 2026 and will significantly reduce London to Birmingham rail times.
A second Y-shaped phase, taking the line to north-east and north-west England and beyond, is due to be completed around 2032/33.
Rail minister Simon Burns said: "HS2 will completely transform the UK. It will define our country, not just for the 21st century but beyond - linking our major cities in a way previous generations could only dream of.
"No major infrastructure project on this scale can be built without some impact on local communities, but I am determined to do everything I can to minimise the effect of HS2 on those closest to the line."
He went on: "We have developed the right compensation package, providing absolutely the right support for those affected, while at the same time protecting the interests of taxpayers.
"We have thought long and hard about this and the measures I have announced are fair and strike the right balance for local communities and the British taxpayer."
Hilary Wharf, director of the HS2 Action Alliance, said: "What's on offer is derisory. It's cynical and dishonest and gives the lie to repeated Government promises that this would be the most generous compensation scheme ever. They themselves say it's comparable to HS1's (the London to Folkestone Channel Tunnel fast link) arrangements - regarded as unacceptable 20 years ago."
She went on: "For those affected by blight (beyond the 120-metre mark from the line) it effectively just continues the existing hardship scheme, under which just 60 households have qualified in the last two years.
"If the Government can't afford fair compensation, it can't afford HS2."
Ms Wharf continued: "This is neither a generous nor the right package for those impacted by the plans for HS2. Under these proposals many thousands of ordinary people will be left with houses they cannot sell or worth considerably less than they were before the plans for this eye-watering, expensive white elephant were announced. It offers no prospect of relief for the vast majority of those whose lives are ruined by HS2."
Ms Wharf said the consultation on compensation had been delayed three times since it was first scheduled for February last year, "with the lives of thousands of ordinary people - from Camden to Staffordshire - damaged by this fatally flawed plan".
She went on: "As the last consultation was a shambles, losing hundreds of responses and triggering five judicial reviews, we have no expectation that this will be any better.
"As with every step of this fatally flawed project those impacted have been insulted and treated with contempt by an incompetent DfT (Department for Transport) and uncaring Government who seem hell bent on pushing though HS2 no matter what the personal, financial or environmental cost."

2 Americans held in killing of Ruscombmanor man in Bahamas
Updated On: Mar 18 2014 04:22:21 AM CDT
Two American men have been charged with manslaughter in connection with the deadly stabbing of a Berks County man in the Bahamas.
Carl Yerger, president of the Oley Valley Youth League, was in the country on business when he was found murdered outside his resort on the island of Bimini early Friday morning.
"Carl was a caring and loving father. We're really going to miss him," said Steven Rothenberger, who lives directly next door to Yerger and his family in Ruscombmanor Township.
Rothenberger and other community members are trying to come to grips with the tragic loss. They described Yerger as a true family man, husband and father of two young boys.
"This was a decent decent man and a decent family. My husband and I are literally sick over this," said Mary Keppley, who lives two doors down.
Yerger, 45, was found early Friday morning stabbed to death on the grounds of the Big Game Club and Resort & Marina, said police.
"The victim was discovered by an employee of the resort," said Asst. Commissioner Emrick Seymour, Royal Bahamas Police Force.
According to investigators, four American men were taken into custody and questioned. Two have been charged; the other two have been released pending further investigation, Seymour said.
Police are still trying to determine a motive and if the men knew Yerger.
"They were all captain and crew of a vessel that was in the marina right there at the hotel," said Seymour.
"They need to be punished for what they did. It's unacceptable behavior," said Keppley.
Yerger was a pillar in the community. He led the Oley Valley Youth League since December 2012. His neighbors said he was down-to-earth and volunteered countless hours.
"He was family-oriented and loved,loved, loved kids," said Keppley.
"It was a major shock to my family and everybody in the development here of an awesome person that we're going to be missing," said Rothenberger.
Rotherberger and other neighbors are trying to provide meals for Yerger's wife and two children.
The Oley Valley Youth League board of directors posted their condolences on the league's website:
"Carl was also an outstanding coach. His players and the parents respected his coaching abilities and appreciated his down-to-earth no nonsense approach to teaching children to play baseball and basketball and to love the games. Carl not only coached his boys, but also could be found on the sideline of any given baseball, basketball, or soccer game enjoying watching the children learn to play sports and develop the types of skills and behaviors that he knew would enable them to one day improve our society.
"The Oley Valley Youth League sends our deepest condolences and prayers to his loving wife and family."
The investigation continues.

Re: Sample McDonalds Budget
But you are right that arguing the numbers is pointless. I mentioned this in another thread about the Koch brothers. Conservatives put out information like this because they know their opponents are easily baited by statistics. Throw some statistics out there and you'll get people to waste their time determining why the stats are right or wrong, or creating their own. All the while, the conservatives who sourced the data in the first place are just moving along with their agenda to gut the middle class and make working class life as miserable as possible in order to enrich themselves. One of the shrewdest things they do is convince middle class people that poor people are ripping them off--and that's the real effect examples like this budget have. "Look at that, seems someone can live just fine on McDonald's money! Guess we don't need welfare or food stamps or Medicaid, then. Screw those lazy-ass poors who just won't step up, I don't want my tax money supporting them."
It's a clever trick and most people in this thread (including me) fell for it.
I just have to remind myself: the only way to win is not to play the game.

I've taught life skills classes that included budgeting, and the figures in the samples I saw were never very realistic. Just like "word problems" in math, where the numbers may not be realistic for the storyline.

Re: Sample McDonalds Budget
$0 for heating? It's possible. We could be talking about the south, or it could be provided by the landlord.
The fact that food and clothing and gas aren't included? Well, it gives people $900/month for that (the $800 spending money plus the $100 in savings).
Someone mentioned property taxes. Really? Isn't it more unreasonable to criticize them for not including property taxes than it is to assume a significant number of these minimum wage workers would never be able to become property owners in the first place?
Once again: I think a guy working 80 hours a week in this country should be able to live significantly better than this, but that's not the case. So why waste energy on the budget rather than on the system that requires such budgeting?
Travel's fatal to prejudice, bigotry, narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things can't be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's life.

Re: Sample McDonalds Budget
And yes, home ownership at that salary is a dumb assumption, and not worth discussing. You can MAYBE work out kids, but spouse needs to also work full time, and there's likely assistance of some sort involved at that point, too.
Gets back again to the question i keep trying to ask: what's the minimum expectation? If your primary attribute is "generally shows up, (probably) has high school diploma", SHOULD we be talking about houses, vacations, etc.? Argue how much the cable tv bill really is, but it's stupid and irresponsible if someone in this position actually HAS that bill, should be watching broadcast TV and saving the money to try and do more important things. HBO isn't a necessity. Cell phone? maybe, but gotta be a cheap one.
Not voting for 'starve on the street', but if we're talking the bare minimum of entry level work, it kinda SHOULD be the bare minimum of reward for that work, no? It would be great if everyone was rewarded with a minimum $40k/year salary, but it's not realistic.

Re: Sample McDonalds Budget
And yeah, I think given productivity gains over the years it's a reasonable expectation that if you put in a little effort in a job, that you'll get things like basic health care, some spending money, and the ability to take vacations to keep you sane.

Re: Sample McDonalds Budget
your incredulity is really a sign of the changed economic environment that we live in now. There was a time, not too long ago, that a person with nothing more than a high-school diploma COULD indeed find a blue-collar job that required no specific skill and yes, they could support themselves, even a family, and afford to save money and go on vacations.
This was during the great post-WWII economic boom, prior to the collapse of unions, globalization, de-regulation, and the onset of wage stagnation. It's not like there's some iron-clad rule of economics that those without a college degree who have low-skill jobs are doomed to crappy pay, we've just chosen policies that make that the case.

Re: Sample McDonalds Budget
The US has pretty well ruined our economic model, yes. There's still money in tech jobs, and anything involving intellectual property, but outside of that, things have shrunk so that the only big segment left is Service Industry. There are various levels of that, but it's not the easy highway to the comfortable blue-collar lifestyle we used to have, completely agree.
And since we decided that a college degree was the big thing, pretty much EVERYONE goes now, so if you don't, you barely qualify for the entry level wage now. It used to be that having the degree set you apart, now NOT having one does, and having one really doesn't buy you much unless you picked a good one, and got decent grades while doing so. Advanced degrees are now the thing that gets you above the pack. Even that is being watered down as people avoid the job market and become degree-collectors/career students instead.
Not sure where to go with that, other than restate that the bare minimum is now more than it used to be. More competition, fewer jobs. If you're trying to get by on the OLD minimum, it's going to be rough at best, and it shouldn't be a shock.
Maybe this is one of the areas where my 'Republican' shows a bit, but you're not just OWED a comfortable life for showing up. Gotta do something to earn it. When there's increased competition and fewer opportunities, you have to work harder, not just complain that it's not as easy. No one owes you a nice life or a house with cable tv.

Re: Sample McDonalds Budget
yes I was talking about factory jobs, but there's nothing magical or special about them that made them so great for workers-there were two factors-they were heavily unionized and they were stable jobs that provided folks a measure of security.
You're right about where our economy is going-two-tiered, where you've got a small number of really good tech jobs or "creative class" jobs and a large amount of service sector jobs that don't pay well and have crappy benefits. Part of the solution is to drive for unionization of service sector jobs, but globalization makes this a different envoronment so that those jobs might just disappear if that happened.
You can go on about how "workers aren't owed a decent living," and I guess you're right, strictly speaking. But our current model is unsustainable. You can't say "everyone needs college" and then make college unaffordable, or de-value the worth of degrees. What next? Everyone needs Ph.D.s?
And from a national economic standpoint, you need workers with money in their pockets to buy products and services.

Sox, Cubs to talk Theo compensation today
Oct 13, 2011, 10:00 AM EST
John Dennis of WEEI reports that the Red Sox and Cubs will start talks regarding compensation for Theo Epstein today. As reported earlier, it's likely to involve either non-prospecty minor leaguers or cash, with some suggesting yesterday that the Sox would just prefer the cash.
I wish I could listen in on those negotiations. I'd want to know if, in light of the Sox' front office totally throwing Theo and everyone under the bus yesterday, the Cubs took the bold position of saying something like "from what we can tell we're doing you a favor. You give us something."
- bloodysock - Oct 13, 2011 at 10:13 AM
Forget the 'non-prospecty minor leaguers'. The Sox will take some Popeye's, Corrs Light and xBox console bundles in return.
- aleskel - Oct 13, 2011 at 10:47 AM
I'm betting this ends up like the famous Dave Winfield-for-a-hot-dinner trade (per Wiki):
"During the 1994 baseball strike, which began on August 12, Winfield was traded to the Cleveland Indians at the trade waiver deadline on August 31 for a "player to be named later." The 1994 season had been halted two weeks earlier (it was eventually canceled a month later on September 14), so Winfield did not get to play for the Indians that year and no player was ever named in exchange. To settle the trade, Cleveland and Minnesota executives went to dinner, with the Indians picking up the tab. This makes Winfield the only player in major league history to be traded for a dinner."
- proudlycanadian - Oct 13, 2011 at 10:53 AM
I still think that The Sox will want the Cubs to take Lackey along with Epstein.
- Old Gator - Oct 13, 2011 at 11:00 AM
Maybe they could just swap curses, with a couple of gouts of bad karma to be named later.

"We demand Starlin Castro!"
"Then keep Theo as your GM."
- cruncheazy - Oct 13, 2011 at 11:07 AM
Hypothetically, since the deal is already done, what happens if the two teams can't reach an agreement? Are the Sox out of luck then, or are the Cubs required to give up some level of compensation?

I don't know for sure, but I think all that's been agreed to are Theo's financial terms, and some rules about him not being able to take any front office guys with him w/o owner approval. The compensation is another facet of the 'big deal' that needs to be agreed to, then I think Theo/Sox tear up the current contract and he's free.
- mabunar - Oct 13, 2011 at 12:12 PM
I don't know about the Cubs having this leverage you allude to. Epstein's free agency/trades have been run through the gauntlet continuously since 2008 and that hasn't stopped all the Cubs postings I've read be so giddy about the prospect of getting him. If anything, the Sox could pull him back and just make everyone be uncomfortable for another year, it's not like they care about that as long as people are filling Fenway.
I'll guess they'll take some sort of monetary package, unless they can convince Chicago to give up a Jackson/Colvin/Cashner-y type of player that can play in the majors this year.

Thank you for this information. And thank you for the invitation to the society, I will give it consideration. I did not know where Elius was buried. Do you know if there is an index for this cemetery online? And also, where I might be able to find on obituary for Elius Joseph MYERS? Thanks again for your help.

A NUMBER OF SCHOOLCHILDREN who reside at Country Towers on Country Road, St Michael, were among those inconvenienced by power outages there on Friday night and Sunday night. Residents reported that a number of the students from the area were unable to attend school on Monday. Resident Jerina Luke recalled: "You could not do certain things, like press clothes, and the [refrigerated] stuff would hardly be any good." She added: "I could not sleep properly because I usually sleep with the fan and inside the unit where I live was so hot." Communications administrator with BL&P, Jackie Marshall-Clarke, said that after Friday night's outage, the company's crews restored power temporarily "as the cables are underground and they would have to contact the various agencies with reference to the manholes where the cables were". With the second outage on Sunday night, crews again responded and power was restored permanently at 12.37 p.m. yesterday, she said. (RL)

Sudan: Humanitarian progress in Sudan, but significant challenges remain (EN/AR)
(Khartoum, 8 August 2012) Relative stability in many parts of Darfur has meant that since January 2011 some 178,000 people have been able to return to their areas of origin. To ensure that these returns are sustainable, humanitarian actors are working to ensure that basic services are delivered in areas of return.
Incidents of fighting and new displacement, along with concerns over food insecurity following a poor harvest season mean, however, that many challenges...

Hacienda Araucano Pinot Noir 2011
Hacienda Araucano - Valle Central - Chile - Colchagua - Rapel
The year 2011 was an interesting year for many northern and central European countries, as the weather was more than unpredictable in the spring and summer. However, in most countries, the climatic conditions thankfully settled down in the late summer and fall. The result of this slightly difficult year of weather in France was a set of surprisingly small yields, but overall, these yields were of a higher quality than those harvested in certain previous years. A fantastic set of wines was also made in Italy and Spain, and the Rioja wines - when released - are set to be very good indeed. Austria also had superb year in 2011, with almost fifty percent more grapes being grown and used for their distinctive Gruner Veltliner wines than in the year before. Possibly the European country which had the finest 2011, though, was Portugal, with wineries in the Douro region claiming this year to be one of the best in decades for the production of Port wine, and the bright, young Vinho Verdes wines. In the New World, the Pacific Northwest saw some of the best weather of 2011, and Washington State and Oregon reportedly had a highly successful year, especially for the cultivation of high quality red wine grapes. Chile and Argentina had a relatively cool year, which certainly helped retain the character of many of their key grape varietals, and should make for some exciting drinking. South Africa had especially good weather for their white wine grape varietals, particularly Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, and many South African wineries are reporting 2011 as one of their best years in recent memory.
Pinot Noir is one of the planet's most widely grown and enjoyed grape varietals, and thanks to the popularity of the key wines it is associated with Burgundy and Champagne it has successfully spread from its native home in France to much of the wine producing world. Pinot Noir means 'black pine' in French, and this refers to the extremely dark, inky color of the fruit, and the fact that it grows in conical bunches, resembling a large pine cone. It has long been revered for its wide range of refreshing, summery flavors, and the fact that it produces red wines of a beautiful garnet color and light body. More recently, sparkling wines made exclusively with Pinot Noir have been extremely popular, and the orchard notes found in the fizzy 'blanc des noirs' wines mark out just how versatile this grape varietal really is. Despite being notoriously difficult to grow, it isn't hard to see why this grape is now found in vineyards all over the world, as it is synonymous with romance and decadence, quality and fantastic flavor
Chile's Valle Central has to be one of the oldest 'New World' wine regions on earth, with a viticultural history which stretches all the way back to the 16th century, and the time of the first European settlers in South America. This long stretch of valleys and mountains, which extends between Maipo and Maule, has grown to become one of the most prodigious and productive wine regions on the continent, with a reputation for big, flavourful and characterful wines. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Carmenere all flourish in various part of Valle Central, and the many micro-climates which characterize the region allow wineries to experiment and innovate with their crops. Today, the Chilean wine industry is stronger than ever, and quality has for the first time overtaken quantity as a priority, making it something of a golden age for the country's wine producers.
When the wealthy new landowners of the 19th century began planting large vineyards in the fertile central valleys of Chile, they must have been impressed at how successful the imported Old World grape varietals took to the land. However, such a fact is hardly surprising; with eight months of blazing sunshine coupled with oceanic winds from the west, and crystal clear spring waters from the Andes irrigating the soil, grapes such as Malbec, Merlot, Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon were given everything they needed to flourish, and more. As the centuries passed, Chilean wineries continued to expand and experiment, resulting in a wide range of wine production methods and techniques, and consistently producing fine quality wines perfect for the international market. Nowadays, Chile is renowned for producing a wide variety of crisp white wines, and juicy, fruity reds enjoyed around the world for their drinkability and flavorful character, making this country very much one of the 'New World', albeit one with a fascinating link to the Old.

"Wow... Perfection:) I'm so please with not only the speed of receiving my photo heart but the quality is superb. The picture is so very clear.
I was hesitant to order, at first, because I had one
made elsewhre and was terribly disappointed with the clarity.
You'll be getting more orders from me. What a great gift :)
with the clarity."
-- Agnes
"I received my order today and I am very pleased with the results and the craftsmanship. I really did not know what to expect, most especially, since I was having a difficult time sending Mr. Daniel Schifter a clear picture as an attachment.
I very much appreciate Dan responding very quickly and keeping me informed on the quality of the pictures I had sent him. I thank him for his patience and hard work. I had many friends comment on the quality of the picture on the pendant and have asked me where I ordered it from. I am so proud to give your website.
This will definitely not be the last time I order from you guys.
-- Michelle
"Usually these comments are about the product, but I wanted to write about your customer service.
My outlined picture charm came and I was not satisfied but the customer service I received was EXCELLENT!
I cannot believe how simple it was to discuss my issues and how quickly PicturesOnGold handled them.
I choose not to keep the charm but I have reordered something else - and cannot wait to get it.
They stand by their products and refund policy!"
-- Roxie
"I have never written a testimonial before, but I was so impressed with the quality of workmanship and speed of service from PicturesOnGold.com that I felt compelled to write. Last year I had been looking for a very special Christmas gift for my sister-in-law in memory of her son who passed away just four months earlier. I saw your website for photo pendants advertising "Guaranteed for Christmas", but to be honest was skeptical ordering it so late. I placed my order online Tuesday 12/7 and was amazed to receive my delivery by Thursday – just two days later. The pendant really is exquisite; it captured the photo of my nephew beautifully and the special message was engraved on the back. My sister-in-law has never taken it off and said she is going to cherish it forever. I have shared your website with many friends and family.
Wishing you All a Joyous Christmas,
-- Debbi
"I just got the watch I ordered for my husband's birthday, and it is so beautiful! It turned out just as I wanted it to! I can't wait till the lockets I ordered for my sisters arrive, i'm sure they'll be gorgeous too!"
