• President Ronald Reagan, Jan. 30, 1984: "Exports create and sustain jobs for millions of American workers and contribute to the growth and strength of the United States economy. The Export-Import Bank contributes in a significant way to our nation's export sales."
Editor, The following is an open letter on sequestration to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nevada, from retired U.S. Army Gen. Gordon R. Sullivan, head of the Association of the United States Army:
Some of my favorite Norman Rockwell prints all have something to do with eating, but not for the reasons you might think.
Remember the story of "The Little Engine That Could"? That could well describe the city of Dalton, a town of some 34,000 nestled in the corner of northwest Georgia, not far from the Tennessee line.
In an article that appeared in the Feb. 20, 2013 edition of the Coastal Courier, the Liberty County commissioners blamed Midway for delaying the fire plan, but never addressed or discussed why the city opted out of the county fire plan.
Lately, I've been thinking about the treasure trove that can be found in life's challenging times - the wisdom, the victories, the emotional muscle built and, of course, the stories. As those who know me well often say with a smile, "It's always about the story with her."
This weekend, Keep Liberty Beautiful will host two Native Plant Awareness Giveaway Days to encourage the use of native plants and other great growers in our community.
I realize, perhaps better than anyone, that it's not polite to ask others about their reproductive plans. I've long ranted about how much it annoyed me when friends, family members and even perfect strangers would inquire about a possible plunge into parenthood. Even now, as most of my readers know, I get aggravated when people ask whether my 2-year-old daughter, Reese, will ever be a sister.
Can it be? Is it September already? One of my favorite tunes, "September Song," was written by Kurt Weill and Maxwell Anderson for a Broadway musical in 1938 called "Knickerbocker Holiday." The lyrics could apply today to the current political season in Georgia: "For it's a long, long time from May to December, but the days grow short when you reach September."
History is fickle with heroic humans, even when they loom over their generation in service to humanity. Even presidents suffer the fickle hand of history, especially when events in their administrations overshadow them. It happened to Herbert Hoover.
Editor, Recently, I've spotted some news headlines - around the region, state and country - that I never thought I'd see. It really makes me wonder, "Whatever were they thinking?"
As many of our readers know, over the past few weeks the Courier received numerous comments and requests to look into recent policies and decisions made by leaders and administrators of the Liberty County School System.
Editor, The Hinesville Fire Department responds to several residential fires each year. Often, the structure involved in the fire is rented property. In several incidents that I have responded to in my 21 years with the department, residents have lost all of their belongings and did not have renter's insurance. This is a reminder from our department for renters to get renter's insurance today.
National Planting Day, sponsored by Keep America Beautiful, is a special way for us to celebrate the value and power of native species for local landscapes.
Have you noticed how "nostalgia" sells? This hit me like an antique butter churn the other day as I was watching television, and so many of the commercials have incorporated "old rock" music into their marketing spiels. And we can say, "Yes I remember that one!" We might even say, "Hey, that was our song!"
Editor, Hinesville Military Affairs Committee's second Veterans Salute was Nov. 1 at Bryant Commons, 438 West Oglethorpe Highway. It was a cold and windy day, but that did not stop or hinder our spirit.
Show support for Marne Division Monday at listening session
Editor, The members of Hinesville Military Affairs Committee would like to thank everyone in the community who contributed to the silent auction held during the second annual Veterans Salute on Nov. 1.
This is a story I shared with some of you a couple of years ago, but given the well-deserved tributes this week to our veterans, it seems an appropriate time to share it with all of you. It is about a terrorist; an honest-to-God terrorist. Not only does he not deny the appellation, he's proud of it.
At the Department of Veterans Affairs, we have one of the most noble and inspiring missions in government. I accepted this job and joined this mission to better serve you - our veterans - and improve the delivery of the care and benefits you have earned. It is our privilege to serve you, and I have made clear that as we move forward as a department, we will judge the success of all our efforts against a single metric - the outcomes we provide for veterans.
Over the years, I've crossed paths with many who were extremely successful as well as some who were such miserable failures that, as Mama liked to say, they "ain't worth the breath they draw."
I recently saw a meme posted to a social-media site that said something along the lines of "Having children: Your way of showing the world you no longer intend to be on time - ever."
America Recycles Day is coming up this Saturday and is the only nationally recognized day dedicated to encouraging Americans to recycle and to buy recycled products.
In September 2009, I wrote a letter to the editor that began like this:
Editor, "Greater Good" is a point or ideology that has been defined, perceived and twisted. So what does this mean? I wonder if it's even fair to apply this concept because, at the end of the day, the definition is construed. Man is still making that determination.
In 1976 in the rainforest, a virus was transmitted to people from wild animals, and it spread through the population via human-to-human contact.
Editor, I just spoke with Liberty County Chief Registrar/Elections Supervisor Ella Golden. She reported Sunday voting results as:

Moldova after the Elections: Fast-forward or Sliding Back?
n 30 November Moldova will hold parliamentary elections. In light of developments in Ukraine throughout the past year, these elections are mostly presented in Europe as a major geopolitical choice that will decide on a black or white future of Moldova – that is – either moving towards the EU path or the Russian-led Eurasian Economic Union - writes Anita Sobják and Stanislav Secrieru
Is the Eastern Partnership Weakening?
The new European Commission and High Representative are planning to revise neighbourhood policy. The Eastern Partnership (EaP) could see enhanced project cooperation but also a weakened political commitment from EU institutions in the bloc's relations with its eastern partners. This means primarily a risk of departure from the policy objectives of the EaP, such as support for democratic transition and bringing these countries closer to the EU - writes Elżebieta Kaca
Treaty with Abkhazia, Russia's satellite, does not meet imperial ambitions - comment by Konrad Zasztowt
The treaty on alliance and strategic partnership signed on 24 November between Abkhazia and Russia caused understandable concern in Tbilisi, as well as critical comments from the EU, NATO and the United States. On this occasion, Moscow promised Sukhumi financial support of $200 million. Furthermore, President Putin announced plans to restore the Abkhazian railway, which was destroyed during the war with Georgia in the early 1990s.
The Legacy of the Maidan
Today Ukraine is marking the first anniversary since the beginning of anti-government protests that were instantly dubbed Euromaidan. It soon grew into massive, mostly peaceful demonstrations across the country that lasted 94 winter days. They culminated in a bloody crack-down by the riot police that killed a hundred citizens and wounded many more. The scars of that massacre are still seen on Kyiv's Instytuts'ka street, adorned with wreaths and pictures of the fallen heroes - writes Ievgen Vorobiov
Santa KLAUS is coming to town

Ok, so that title might be a little melodramatic. Have you ever heard the phrase "we need to stop the bleeding", we have been hearing it at work a lot lately in regards to losing money. For some reason when I woke up this morning that phrase seemed to fit my life. I alluded yesterday to some turmoil going on in my personal life. The turmoil is still going on and still effecting me more than I would like it to. Basically a family member is going through a really traumatic event and for some reason or another it has truly shaken me. Parts of me are feeling guilty that I can't be around more to help them and part of me is angry that it's happening.
Regardless of all this mess I have let myself get lazy. I barely slept for 3 days because I wake up sick to my stomach or in a cold sweat. I basically have spent the last 2 days eating my emotions away. I have known for quite some time that I didn't have a healthy relationship with food and that I used it as a means of comfort but over the last 2 days I have really made some major revelations. I see now that I turn to foods as a means of comfort because it is easier than opening up to someone and telling them how I really feel. This all started 11 years ago when my dad passed. I was young and felt like I had no one I could talk to about what happened. My family has never been big on talking about how you feel to begin with and after he passed we all pretty much shut down. Still to this day we rarely talk about my dad, Tom has been with me for 6 years and he can only remember a handful of times when we talked about him. I can see looking back now that is when I really started gaining weight, this unfortunate trend continued 3 years later when my grandmother who was the only person I did normally turn to passed. I continued using food to comfort myself because there was nothing else that made me feel better. I spent the last 2 days eating myself sick, chocolate, chips, soda, etc and realize that food will never make me feel better. I talked through all of this with Tom because he was concerned that I was shutting down, which I was. He made me realize that I do have someone I can talk to about this stuff now, he's there and he always listens and will not laugh if I cry. He may not have the right words to make me feel better all the time, but he promises to at least lend his ear without judging me. That's so important for me, I need to turn to other sources when life gets hard otherwise I am going to end up back at 273 lbs or heavier and I certainly do not want to go back to that, EVER. Not to mention that I feel like total garbage today. I can't even stomach the idea of eating anything right now, I feel bloated, nauseous and still full. I hate this feeling and realize now why binging is so terrible, I feel terrible.
That's where the "Stop the Bleeding" comes into play. I need to step back and realize that the last 2 days did happen, I did eat a lot and probably gained a few lbs. I checked the scale this morning and it was bad, but I realize that I lost 100 lbs so far and I can definitely lose back this weight and finish with the last 20 lbs or so. I just need to focus and stop letting food run my life. I am ready to find better ways of communicating, with my family and myself so that I stop using food as comfort. I made a promise to myself that this is the last time I let this happen. Food will never make me feel like I am whole, it will never stop the crying or the hurting and it certainly will never hold me when I need a hug. Food will be there as a means of fuel and that's it. I guess I just never looked at myself long enough to see what I was doing to my body, and to my mind. Letting go of food will make my life so much fuller and will help bring me closer to family, friends and my husband. Now the void in my life will not be filled with junk food but with things that are important.
This is probably all over the place but it's been bothering me and I feel better knowing it's out.
Thanks for listening
So I weighed myself this morning, I normally do on Friday and again Monday to check my damage for the weekend. Well luckily this weekend it seems I didn't do any damage but rather have finally dipped below 169 lbs.
(Yes both dogs are in the bathroom with me, they are everywhere I am most of the time and it's a ladybug tattoo on my foot)
I am no longer considered overweight for my height. This is huge for me. I can't actually remember a time when I was this healthy or weighed this much. I feel proud of myself and for all that I have accomplished in the last 7 months and I know I will be at my goal weight in no time. I have set some pretty high goals for the next few months but I know that if I stay motivated and dedicated I can achieve those goals. I hope that I can inspire those around me to do it, I tell everyone all the time "If I can do it, anyone can". It's true. It is a lot of hard work but it is totally worth it in the long run.
In any case my weekend was bland. We went to Bonefish Grille for dinner with some of our friends on Friday night. I really do not like fish but I had mahi mahi and it was actually very good. We were supposed to go duck pin bowling because none of us ever had before but the boys pitched a fight so we ended up sitting at Starbucks for 2 hours. It was not my idea of an exciting Friday night but hubbies were grumpy. Saturday I went to the gym and then came home and crashed on the couch with the puppies. For some reason, whether I'm tired or not, I fall asleep everytime I watch the movie Twilight. I loved the books but the movie knocks me out. Saturday I also had to do grocery shopping and although I get much better deals at Walmart, it makes me irate having to go there. People are crazy there and it makes me dread grocery shopping. Sometimes I can convince the hubby to go shopping on his nights off because he can go very late at night when less idiots are out. Sunday I went to the gym again and then did some organizing. Hubby bought me a shelving unit for the garage that I wanted to put some overflow kitchen items on. We have a few too many big appliance items(toaster oven, rotisserie, huge crockpot) that were taking up too much room in the kitchen. I organized the shelving unit in the garage and opened up 2 whole cabinets in the kitchen. It's amazing and I told the hubby he's the best. Sunday nights are wind down days for me, I usually spend an hour reading and try to get to bed early for a fresh start to the week. I also usually spend half the day baking and prepping the week's fruits and veggies so that I don't have to do it during the week. Yesterday I baked homemade cornbread muffins, chocolate chip cookies and brownies. The brownies were for a friend at work and the muffins were for hubby since they are his favorite. The cookies were mainly because I ripped a bag of chocolate chips and spilt half of them so I figured why not.
Speaking of baking, I really love it. I would love to open a pastry shop of some sort. I just want to make sure it's a true bakery and not a trend like a cupcake shop because ultimately that trend will fade and then there will be nothing. I think a real, true bakery is hard to come by anymore. Maybe the tradition of the whole idea is fading. I just remember being young and my grandmother taking us to the bakery where you could buy anything. Bread, donuts, cakes, pastries, dough for pizza. It was great. I wish there were more around.
I leave you with a picture of my sleeping Remi last night. For as crazy and out of control that he is(still a puppy I hope) he can be a sweetie pie

I love the snow. I really love the snow. It looks so pretty and just brings back really warm memories of childhoods in Pennsylvania. Maryland and the people that live in Maryland do not like snow however. They don't know how to clean the roads and they can not drive in inclement weather of any kind but especially in the snow. We woke up this morning to a beautiful 5 inches of snow. My favorite part of the snow storms are when I walk the dogs at 7 am and no one is out, it's quiet and still dark and it honestly feels like I am walking in a snow globe. Everything sounds like it's on mute, you can't hear traffic and the puppies and I just walk through the snow piles making our tracks through the snow. Seriously I could write about snow all day. I just adore it.
In any case I took some pics on my way to work this am, I was stopped when I took them so it wasn't dangerous.
I love how big and fluffy the trees look. It truly looks like a Christmas card right now and I adore it.
I also wanted to show you all a pic of the new puppy. He is just too cute- meet Remington he has one ear up and one down always. It's so cute it makes me want to kiss him
And as to not leave my baby Sophie out here she is look at that face, she should be a doggie model.
Hubby and I are traveling to Chicago this weekend to visit with his parents. They have finally sold their home(Tom's childhood home) after having it on the market for over a year. This will be our last time visiting there since they are moving to South Carolina in March. I'm excited to get away for a few days and spend some time with his family but also sad to say goodbye to Tom's childhood home, and a lot of memories that he and I have created there. This will be an exciting trip because it's the first time we will be allowed to sleep in the same bed since we are finally married. YAY
Hope everyone has a wonderful day

Night work begins on the Hāna Highway in the Wailua Valley area of East Maui this week. The work to repair an existing drainage crossing will result in a road closure between the Wailua Valley Lookout near mile marker 19 and Puaʻa Kaʻa State Park at Mile 22.
Crews will remove five Cook Pine trees and 11 Ironwood trees that are decaying and are at risk of falling.
An 18-year-old Kula man was medevaced to the Maui Memorial Medical Center with life threatening injuries following a single-vehicle collision on the Piʻilani Highway just south of Upper Kanaio Road near Ulupalakua.
UPDATE: TRAFFIC ADVISORY MĀʻALAEA: 10:30 a.m. Emergency crews remain on the scene of a rollover accident on the Honoapiʻilani Highway in Māʻalaea. A van was still on its side blocking Lahaina bound traffic at last report.
A flood advisory for Maui has been extended to 10:45 p.m. on Saturday, March 29, 2014. Forecasters with the National Weather Service say radar at 9:20 p.m. showed that rainfall had diminished over the Windward East Maui area; but the flood advisory remains in effect as ponding and runoff continues from heavy rains earlier in the evening.
County officials say the parking lot at War Memorial Gymnasium has been reopened ahead of schedule, after the repaving of the lot was completed.
A section of Hansen Road in Central Maui is closed from 7:30 a.m. on Thursday, March 20, to Friday afternoon, March 21, to allow the removal of dead tree branches overhanging the road, county officials announced.
An 18-year-old Kīhei man sustained life-threatening injuries in a motorcycle crash on the Piʻilani Highway in South Maui last night, according to Maui police.
At 6:26 p.m., we received reports that traffic was starting to move and that the accident had been cleared from the main road.
The closure extends along Wakea Avenue from Kamehameha to Lono for the rest of the work week.

I have been asked to bring a red wine to an informal dinner. Host will be serving pork tenderloin with horseradish apricot glaze, Brie with puff pastry & raspberries, not sure what else is on her menu. Any suggestions on red wines?
I guess I'd recommend a light-bodied pinot noir, but, yeah, I'd probably prefer a riesling also.
Agreed with the other posters that with all the sweet and spice, a Riesling (white wine) would be more appropriate.
If you do have to do red, a Pinot Noir from Russian River Valley would be best. Fruity enough to stand up to the strong flavors, not spicy/smokey/heavy enough to clash with the food.
re: goldangl95
Thanks for suggestion will probably do Pinot Noir and a Reisling even though it was not asked for. Any Riesling suggestions?
re: VeraMasters
If you are picking up from a wine store, I would ask for a rec for an off dry riesling (depending on the guests tolerance for sweet. I would prefer off-dry to semi sweet...semi sweet is pretty darn sweet).
Something from Mosel maybe?
re: VeraMasters
To play it safe I'd choose one from Alsace. Plentiful fruit and a dry finish. But I think that a spatlese/halbtrocken would work better being fruity and bigger and rounder.
re: Chinon00
I'm probably too late but I agree with this recommendation. I was also thinking a lighter Blaufrankisch would work well too but that's probably harder to find unless you have a really good wine shop.
re: bg90027
Ah yes! How I miss a great Burgenland Blaufrankisch. Not too many of those available where I live.
White does work a lot better I am afraid. Either Riesling (Alsace, Mosel, Nahe, Franken, but avoiding the bone dry stuff) or a great Alsatian blend (Marcel Deiss does some amazing stuff - try for example Rotenburg). Alsatian slightly off-dry Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc woudl also work.
re: vanderb
I think Gewürztraminer will work too. But I do not think that attempting to more mimic the flavors in the dish leads necessarily to a better pairing.
re: Chinon00
It does depend on the dish but I do find Gewurztraminer goes very well with sweet/spicy Thai, Vietnamese and Indian dishes (not the same flavour palate as the dinner mentioned above) but I thought worth a try.
re: vanderb
Yeah I don't think that it would be a bad pairing. I just fear that by trying to imitate flavors they might end up canceling each other out.
Thanks all of you for the great suggestions. Will go wine shopping today. Will let y'all know outcome.
Lot going on here.
Apricot leads me to Viognier, but then, horshradish, and I am thinking Riesling, as a Spätlese.
The raspberries, and then your question on red wines, and I think a Merlot, but there are still those other flavors.
With many pork dishes, I lean towards Pinot Noirs, but those other flavors!
Brie, at room temp and especially if a double, or triple cream, and I think a bigger FR Chard.
In the end, and after some palate gymnastics, I lean toward the PN, or the Riesling, as others have mentioned.
Hi VeraMasters,
Clearly you want red wine for a reason (even if white would go better with this meal). I suggest Taltarni's Three Monks Cab Merlot. It's a great red wine to pair with lighter meats and even goes great with chicken. The fruit-driven palate will go great with the pork and brie, raspberry pastry. If you need to know some info on where you can find it - go to: http://www.taltarni.com.au/buy/wine-o...
Your description of the menu was similar to a meal we recently had. The wine I chose was a cheap Chilean wine, a rosé made with Cab Sauv. Turned out to be a beautiful magenta color, almost hot pink, and was surprisingly good for the price. I believe the brand was Vistaña. Worth looking for something like this. It was not very sweet and matched the food perfectly.

NEW YORK—Cushman & Wakefield Inc. announced that Edward C. Forst has been named president and CEO of the company. He will join the firm effective Jan. 6, 2014.
Forst, 53, joins Cushman & Wakefield following his tenure at Goldman, Sachs & Co. as Global Co-Head of the Investment Management Division, as a member of its management committee and previously as the firm's Chief Administrative Officer. Most recently, he served as an advisor to Fenway Partners, a private investment firm.
Forst has more than 30 years of experience working in international asset management, capital markets, and operational leadership. He has held multiple executive level roles in both New York and London at Goldman, Sachs, where he was elected partner in 1998. While at Goldman, Sachs, Forst also served in leadership roles at the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (SIFMA) and was elected as its first co-chairman and subsequently in 2007 as its chairman.
During the financial crisis of 2008-2009, Forst was selected to be the first EVP and principal operating officer of Harvard University, leading its non-academic affairs and served as advisor to the Secretary of the Treasury of the United States.
John Elkann, chairman and CEO of EXOR, Cushman & Wakefield's controlling shareholder, stated, "The appointment of a professional of Forst's caliber will further strengthen Cushman & Wakefield's ability to capture the opportunities to accelerate the firm's growth and capitalize on the substantial investment that has been made in the business over the last few years. EXOR remains strongly committed to supporting Cushman & Wakefield's development, enabling it to achieve its full potential in this exciting new phase."

For the past few years, the talk of The Lodging Conference in Phoenix had been focused on the economic recovery, solid industry projections and "cautious optimism." With the word cautious no longer necessary, the economic outlook took a backseat this year to the seemingly unending parade of new lifestyle brands.

NVIDIA 190.42 Linux Driver Grabs Official Tag
Published on 29 October 2009 10:24 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
Comment On This Article
A week after the NVIDIA Linux engineering team released the
190.42 driver release candidate
, this driver is now deemed stable and has been officially released on NVIDIA's web-site. The NVIDIA 190.42 driver is the first official release in the 190.xx Linux driver series, which has been in beta for a number of months and undergone numerous releases.
Compared to the NVIDIA 185.xx driver series, the NVIDIA 190.42 driver brings new hardware support, support for
OpenGL 3.2
, many
video playback improvements, initial support for X Server 1.7 / X.Org 7.5, support for configuring the NVIDIA GPU's fan-speed, and support for configuring the GPU PowerMizer mode. There are also various bug-fixes and other smaller improvements. Among the newly supported hardware is the
GeForce GT 220
, GeForce G102M, GeForce G210, GeForce G210M, GeForce GT 230M, GeForce GT 240M, GeForce GTS 250M, and GeForce GTS 260M.
The NVIDIA 190.42 driver, however, does not contain the
support that is found in
this driver set
, but we anticipate the Open Computing Language library to be merged into the mainline package soon.
The official NVIDIA 190.42 display driver is available for
64-bit Linux
32-bit Linux
. The FreeBSD and Solaris NVIDIA drivers have also reached version 190.42 with similar changes.

HAMILTON, Ont. -- A building at Hamilton's McMaster University is set to reopen after being closed for the day Friday over a threat.
University spokesman Gord Arbor says the Integrated Applied Health Sciences building will be operating as usual Saturday.
He says police released the facility to the university after searching it in the wake of a threat made against the building just before 9 a.m.
Arbor says about 1300 students and staff typically use the building on Fridays.
He couldn't comment on whether police discovered any suspicious items.

RRSTAR.COM STAFF REPORTS Posted Aug 05, 2010 @ 10:41 PM ROCKFORD — For the seventh consecutive year, Rockford College has been named one of the best colleges in the Midwest by the Princeton Review, a New York-based firm that specializes in resources on colleges for prospective students. The Princeton Review made its selections based on institutional data received from colleges across the U.S., visits to colleges over the years, and opinions of high school and independent advisers. The Review, which is not affiliated with the university, also polled students on various aspects of life at their colleges using an 80-question survey. Rockford College is one of 19 colleges in Illinois to make the cut. Among the special distinctions Rockford College is noted for is its civic engagement, involving students in community-based nonprofit organizations and projects. As a result, the firm previously named the college a "College with a Conscience." For the past two years, the college also has been named to the President's Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll for its campus engagement with the community. For a complete look at The Princeton Review's "Best Colleges Region by Region," see princetonreview.com.

After a fire destroyed Fire Island nightclub Pavilion last November, its owners just announced plans to rebuild.
FIP Ventures hired Manhattan-based architects Hollwich Kushner to design the new club that's expected to be completed in the spring of 2013, according to a statement.
The rebuilt Pavilion will have two stories of outdoor terraces. The ground level incorporates benches, wide staircases and storefronts and the entrance forms a set of bleachers that act as a viewing platform, stage, wedding chapel and extended dance floor. The welcome bar on the first floor, the high-tea terrace and the Pavilion Club are all connected by an internal loop of stairs.[dmc-related-post-wp numitems="3" title="Also read"]
"Although the new building will have the same envelope and mix of uses as its predecessor, the similarities end there," Matthew Blesso, developer and managing partner of FIP Ventures, said in the statement. "The Pavilion will be in context with other Pines architecture. It will be made of wood and be modern and casual, yet bold and iconic. It is the first thing visitors see when getting off the ferry, and we've envisioned it to be the heart of the Pines community."
The fire also damaged FIP Ventures' canteen building, pool deck, bulkhead and boardwalk, all of which have been fully repaired and are open for the season. Master planning is being led by Blesso and Charles Renfro from design firm Diller Scofidio + Renfro, which also designed Manhattan's High Line Park and Lincoln Center.

Too early in the year for holiday gift guides? Perhaps!
Each year for Details.com I write a gift guide of spirits to consider for holiday gifting or just winter drinking. This year's list includes 11 spirits and 1 book, nearly all of which came out in the later half of the year (as Details is all about new stuff).
Spirits are mostly from well-known brands and include bottles from:
Check it out on Details.com here. Note: It's a slideshow so there is lots of clicking, sorry.
Drinks International's World's 50 Best Bars list for 2014 was announced last week. Now you can view the list, bar write-ups, and more information either online in website format or as a digital magazine.
As you may know, I'm one of the primary pollsters for this list, and this year was in charge of choosing the voting academy and collecting the votes from people in North America. I collected 110 votes from the US and Canada, including voters from 29 cities in the US.
Many people are curious as to the voting process and it's explained well here. This year there were 334 voters in total. The magazine has a graphic breakdown of the distribution of pollsters by region on page 5 and the full list of the voting academy is here.
I went through the list and have been to 25 of the World's 50 Best Bars. That doesn't sound like much, but they're pretty spread out!
In a story for Details.com, I wrote about how fat-washing has moved beyond bacon and into other fatty liquids and the flavors they carry.
The next chapter of this libation trend has arrived.
Now crafty cocktailians are moving beyond grease into other fatty liquids like coconut, olive oil, cocoa, butter, and even nut fats. Sounds filling? Fattening? Foolish? Not at all.
The story includes mention of fat-washing at bars like:
Last week I had the honor of being awarded the International Cognac Writer of the Year for 2014. The annual award is granted by the Bureau national interprofessionnel du Cognac, the BNIC. They are the industry promotion group for cognac.
Previous winners of the award include David Wondrich and Salvatore Calabrese, so I'm in excellent company.
I was given the award at the annual La Part des Anges charity auction held in Cognac, which this year raised over 237,600 euros for the Children in Crisis charity. The charity's patron Sarah Ferguson, the Duchess of York, was there to host the event. (I sat at the next table over with her assistants.)
My friends Eric Fossard and Thierry Daniel were awarded the Cognac Personalities of the Year award for their running of the Boutique Bar Show in Paris.
In addition to the certificate to hang on the wall of my office, they gave me an engraved bottle to tempt me from storage.
In FSR Magazine I wrote about bartender training programs in better cocktail bars, from online and in-class corsework to conference and conventions, to hosting brand ambassadors for in-bar trainings.
Check out the story here.
Here's a paragraph from the story:
For starters, Dobbs required his staff—bartenders and servers alike—to take an online course called BarSmarts Wired before their first day of training. "I didn't want servers to drop a drink menu off and then come back and just take an order," he says. "I wanted interaction, conversation, and dialogue. I required BarSmarts for everyone. Even my hostess has taken it."
For Details.com I wrote a preview of about 10 cocktail bars to get excited about opening around the country. And as the story was postponed a week, a few of them are already open so get in there and get to boozin'.
Read it here.
That big feature I wrote on Sacramento's cocktail, coffee, and craft beer scene has gone up on the magazine's website.
Even if you're not a subscriber (and you really should be), you can read the story online here.
In a new story for Details.com I wrote about bartenders using salt in cocktails.
The first time I ever heard of such a thing (besides around the rim of a Margarita glass) was from Duggan McDonnell of Cantina. That was probably four years ago.
Now it seems that everybody is in on the secret and is using salt in their cocktails - whether they tell you about it or not.
Check out the story on Details.com about how and why and where bartenders are using salt in their drinks.

China Highlights Reviews
Peter LJust returned from a wonderful 10-day trip to the Yunnan-Tibet region. What made the trip more special was that our guides were from local minority groups, Naxi, Tibetan (one had been a monk for five years), who gave us insights on local life. In Lhasa, from our hotel window we could see the Potala Palace right in front of us.

Everything she organized was perfect. (Single compartment on the train, Hotels, local guide and driver, flights). The local guide was pleasant and knowledgeable and adapted well to our needs.

Rapper-turned-actor 50 Cent reveals to the ladies of "The View" the mindset of the dark drug dealer he portrays in the new movie, Twelve.
Despite having a past history in drug dealing, 50 admitted that the role called for a more serious character.
"It's a totally different experience for me because I've been away from that for a very long time," 50 Cent said in an interview on "The View." "In this actual project, the character's actually darker. I've never done anything with those motivations. There's a scene in the actual film where he's excited to trade the drugs for a woman's virginity. That's darker than anything I've experienced…Well, I mean just my motivation. I didn't come there to actually hurt anyone. It was just what the environment provided for me without any requirements…Like they don't say, 'You need a master's [degree] to be a drug dealer.' Everyone's eligible. You have two hands [and] two feet… Run, the cops are coming." (The Boom Box)
50 recently opened up about his role in the film.
"It's an interesting role. The dynamics of the role are extreme. I play a drug dealer who's from Harlem, who doesn't actually have any support. He previously was in foster [care] and there is a connection between me and the kids from midtown because they are coming to Harlem to look for the excitement that they can't find at home." (MTV)
Details on the film's overall plot show 50 playing the back-up to actor Chance Crawford.
Do rich kids and drugs go together like peas and carrots? According to movies like "Cruel Intentions," "Black and White" and the upcoming "Twelve" thriller, starring Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson, they most definitely do. In Joel Schumacher's latest film, "Twelve," high-school dropout White Mike (Chace Crawford) sells drugs to his wealthy former classmates. When White Mike's cousin is brutally murdered in an east Harlem project, he quickly finds himself on a collision course with his own destiny. (Tr3s News)
50 became involved on the project around April 2009.
50 Cent is returning to the silver screen. Varietyreports that 50 will join the cast of Twelve. The Joel Schumacher directed film will be an adaptation of Nick McDonnell's 2002 novel of the same name. It follows a high school dropout-turned-drug dealer, whose life sours when his cousin is brutally murdered. (Hip Hop DX)
Twelve is set to be released tomorrow, July 30th.

Artists Quincy Jones III and Chamilionaire discuss the myriad ways that online media and technology have leveled the playing field for "e-hustling", or the pursuit of entrepreneurship. Jones equates the Internet to the turntable when it comes to its thumbprint on hip-hop culture, whereas Chamillionaire extols Twitter as a frighteningly efficient - and more cost-effective - PR machine than a professional publicist.

London - Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney said he was delighted with his return to competitive action after a four-week layoff following his team's 2-1 League Cup victory over Newcastle United on Wednesday.
Rooney had not played since he suffered a nasty gash on his leg in the club's first home Premier League match of the season against Fulham on August 20.
The England striker failed to get on the scoresheet on Wednesday but his team-mates comfortably eased into the next round with goals from Anderson and Tom Cleverley to set up a fourth-round clash against Chelsea.
"It's been just over four weeks since I last played and I'm delighted to be back out on the pitch playing, and it was a good run-out for me and hopefully there's a lot more games to come," Rooney told Sky Sports.
"I feel good, obviously it's always difficult in your first game back after a few weeks but it's great to get the minutes under my belt and hopefully that can benefit me."
United, who are currently second in the Premier League after five games, next play Tottenham Hotspur at home on Saturday.
