2013 Ayres Vineyard, Pinot Noir,
Willamette Valley, Oregon (S) | 19.99/215.89
Since 2001 Ayres Vineyard
has fashioned some of the Willamette Valley's
most immediate, soulful and delicious Pinot Noirs. Ayres'
just-released 2013 Willamette Valley Pinot is a blend
of estate-grown Pinot from Ribbon Ridge blended with
fruit from the Yamhill-Carlton AVA. The result gives
a keen glimpse into the transparency and impeccable
balance we're looking for in the 2013 vintage.
A transparent garnet color in the glass, Ayres'
2013 Pinot opens with aromas of pie cherries, spicy
cinnamon, vanilla bean and smoky soil. On the palate,
Ayres' Pinot casts waves of snappy cherry and
raspberry fruit accented by a smoky soil undercurrent.
Balanced, food-friendly tannins frame the wine's
core of crunchy red fruits. Enjoy this delicious, splendidly
balanced, tangy, red-fruited Oregon Pinot over the next
three years with grilled salmon, roast chicken, pan-seared
pork chops, boudin blanc and hearty vegetarian fare
featuring chanterelle mushrooms.

2012 Elian
da Ros, La Vin est une Fete, Cotes du Marmandais, SW
France (B) | 14.99/161.89
Here's a spectacular
country red that drinks like a delicious cross of a
fresh, young Right Bank claret and a rustic, gripping
red from Cahors. Working biodynamically, winemaker Elian
da Ros blends the traditional Bordeaux varietals Merlot
and Cabernet Franc with the indigenous Arbouriou. An
opaque claret-plum color in the glass, Da Ros's
Le Vin est une Fete (Wine is a Party) explodes with
deeply-pitched black currant fruit alongside complex
notes of cedar, white pepper, tobacco and cured meats.
Vibrant in the mouth, the wine coats the palate with
plum and currant fruit accented by stony minerals, tar,
tobacco and fine, framing tannins. Long and complex
well beyond its modest origins and price tag, da Ros's
Le Vin est une Fete finishes with additional suggestions
of menthol, herbs, cracked peppercorns and lip-smacking
tannins. This is another superb Elian da Ros wine to
buy by the case for enjoyment now and over the coming
three years with just about anything but seafood.
2012 Les
Vignerons du Quercy, Les Hauts Lastour, Coteaux du Quercy,
SW France | 10.50/113.40
Les Vignerons du Quercy
is a group of thirty-three winegrowers dedicated to
achieving the vast potential that this newly minted
Appellation Controlee in Southwestern France can offer.
For their Les Hauts Lastour bottling, the vignerons
blend 20% each of Malbec and Gamay and 10% of Merlot
into a foundation of Cabernet Franc. Tobacco and herbal
notes buoy a vibrant core of plum and cassis fruit.
On the palate, tangy suggestions of cedar, tobacco and
Bing cherries yield to fine, lifting tannins and an
undercurrent of limestone minerals. The wine finishes
long and savory with leafy tobacco notes and hints of
herbs. The Hauts Lastour satisfies both as a delicious,
quaffable rouge and as a wine to tickle the curiosity
of French wine fans. This is one heck of a value and
a terrific, versatile choice to partner with pates,
sausages, roast pork, burgers and Thanksgiving turkey
with a savory dressing.
Chateau Lanessan, Haut-Medoc, Bordeaux, France 23.99/259.09
Looking for something
extra special to grace your holiday table? Look no further
than this impressive Bordeaux from Chateau Lanessan.
One of the greatest overachievers in the Haut-Medoc,
Lanessan employs a classic Left Bank blend of 60 % Cabernet
Sauvignon and 35 % Merlot seasoned with dollops of Petit
Verdot and Cabernet Franc. Add to this twelve years'
maturity and you have a sensational claret that's
just now entering its window of peak drinking. Sporting
a translucent ruby core with hints of mature orange
at the rim, Lanessan's 2002 opens with heady cassis
and plum fruit accented by hints of cedar, tobacco,
black pepper, gravelly soil and vanilla. Silky and voluptuous
with waves of chewy cherry and currant fruit, the wine
shows the mature sweetness and leafiness that can only
be achieved by time and patience. Long and sexy on the
finish, the Lanessan reprises waves of silky red fruit
framed by lovely tannins. It will prove a lovely foil
for rich and savory fare such as roast beef, game and
poultry, as well as seasonal mushroom preparations.
Enjoy this now and over the coming decade.
2013 Domaine de Fenouillet, Ventoux,
Southern Rhone Valley, France (O) | 12.99/140.29
Brothers Patrick and
Vincent Soard own and operate the impeccable Domaine
de Fenouillet, based in the hallowed village of Beaumes
de Venise. Fenouillet's 2013 Ventoux, a blend
of 75% Grenache, 20% Syrah and 5% Carignan, casts a
deep plum-ruby robe and heady aromas of macerated cherries,
smoke, bay leaf and arid, stony terroir. Dense and chewy
on the palate, the wine fuses a deep kernel of cherry
fruit with overtones of orange peel, herbal garrigue,
cloves and potpourri. Fine tannins sneak in on the back-palate,
frame the wine's exuberant fruit, and segue it
to a long herb- and spice- tinged finish. A lingering
hint of juniper makes the wine all the more delicious.
This is a superb and smartly-priced selection that will
make a nice addition to your Thanksgiving table and
served with grilled and roasted meats over the coming
cool weather. A Neal Rosenthal portfolio selection.
Joseph Drouhin, Cote de Beaune-Villages, Burgundy, France
| 20.99/226.69
Drawing from superb
sources in the Cote de Beaune, Drouhin blends wines
from a few hand-selected villages to fashion its Cote
de Beaune-Villages. A vivid garnet color in the glass,
Drouhin's Cote de Beaune-Villages conveys senses
of earthy raspberry and pomegranate fruit, licorice,
and that special limestone earthiness that adorns the
most honest of red Burgundies. Nuanced and supple on
the palate, the Cote de Beaune-Villages' earthy
red fruit kernel mingles with fine, buffered tannins
and complex suggestions of wood smoke, game, mint, and
vanilla. Long and tangy, the wine finishes with reprises
of red fruits, smoky soil and earth. Another fine choice
for your Thanksgiving table, enjoy this beauty now and
over the coming three years with full-bodied savory
fare such as gratin dauphinois, duck, roast chicken
and pork.
2010 Domaine des Forges, Anjou-Villages
Rouge, Les 3C, Loire Valley, France (S) | 11.99/129.49
"Les 3C"
on the label refers to the three C's of the Branchereau
family, owners of the Domaine des Forges: Claude, the
grandfather; Corentin, the grandson; and Camille the
granddaughter. A blend of Cabernets Franc and Sauvignon,
Forges' Les 3C is a brilliant representation of the
varietals as expressed on the schistose soils of the
Anjou. Translucent black-ruby in the glass, the cuvee
casts aromas of dried leaves, cured meat, black currants,
black pepper and herbs. Showing the beautiful structure
of the Loire Valley's 2010 vintage, the wine alternates
waves of currant and cherry fruit, plentiful fine tannins,
leafy underbrush and smoky soil notes. Spicy and cinnamon-tinged
on the finish, the 3C presents further complex suggestions
of bitter chocolate, black cherries, Assam tea and salty
minerals. Firmly structured with chewy tannins, the
wine is delicious and savory today, but has the poise
and the balance to reward five to seven years' aging
in your cool cellar. Pair this superb Anjou-Villages
with cured meats, aged goat cheeses, braised rabbit
and pork dishes, and grilled beef. Another testament
to the greatness of France's 2010 vintage!
2012 Brigaldara, Valpolicella,
Veneto, Italy | 15.99/172.69
There's truly
nothing like pure, unadulterated Valpolicella for a
versatile, delicious and characterful year-round red.
The benchmark Brigaldara estate's gorgeous 2012
Valpolicella casts a transparent black cherry robe and
delivers a pure, delicate nose of cherry and raspberry
fruit accented by hints of tar, violets and potpourri.
On the palate, fresh, spicy cherry and raspberry fruit
joins zippy acidity and delicious overtones of limestone
minerals, camphor and sweet cinnamon. On the finish,
fine, food-friendly tannins and an appetizing bitter
almond note serve to frame and elevate the wine's
gorgeous kernel of red berry fruit. Fashioned exclusively
from the traditional Valpolicella varietals (Corvina
40%, Corvinone 20%, and a blend of Rondinella, Molinara
and Sangiovese), the wine is ripe, lush and ready to
go. Pair now and over the next five years with savory
poultry, pasta, burgers, pizza and grilled squashes.
Delicious Valpolicella and another fine turkey wine!
Tenuta Sella & Mosca, Tanca Farra, Alghero DOC,
Sardinia, Italy | 22.99/248.29
Sella & Mosca is
unquestionably Sardinia's leading estate. The
estate's Tanca Farra ("iron earth")
is a terrific blend of equal parts indigenous Cannonau
(aka Grenache) and Cabernet Sauvignon. This ferrous
soil profile infuses the wine with a compelling terroir
expression and amazing complexity. A deep ruby color
with crimson highlights, the Tanca Farra casts aromas
of black currants, figs, ferrous earth, smoke and licorice.
Broad and rich on the palate, the wine coats the palate
with rich black fruits imbued with the soil signature
and hints of cured meats, tar and game. Barrel notes
of dark roasted coffee emerge on the long, soil-driven
finish. Pair this truly impressive wine with sausages,
salumi, braised rabbit, rich game dishes, hearty pastas
and pizzas, as well as roast lamb and beef. Enjoy now
and over the coming seven years.
2010 Feudi di San Gregorio, Aglianico,
Rubrato, Irpinia IGT, Campania, Italy | 11.99/ 129.49
There's little
debate among Italian wine authorities that Nebbiolo,
Sangiovese and Aglianico are the country's three
noblest grapes. Aglianico, the least well known of the
three, reaches its apogee on the volcanic hillsides
in southern Italy's Campania region. A fickle
and difficult grape, the Aglianico requires the care
and gentle coaxing of a quality-conscious producer like
Feudi to realize fully its mysterious and elusive personality.
Feudi's Rubrato embodies all the hallmarks of
a great Aglianico wine: a dense black-purple color,
flavors of plums and deep, black fruits, licorice, and
a finish that expresses the volcanic ash soils from
nearby Mount Vesuvius. Feudi's 2010 Rubrato sports
a bright, high-toned nose of dried cherries, Medjool
dates, star anise and tar. The Rubrato's palate
is zippy, lively and satisfying with nuances of blackberries,
cinnamon, star anise, menthol and cloves, but it's
on Rubrato's long finish that Vesuvius's
volcanic terroir emerges and conveys the unique expression
of ashen soil that simply can't be matched anywhere
else on the planet. This is a wonderful cool weather
wine that's tailor-made for grilled meats, salumi,
hard cheeses, charcuterie and pasta dishes with sun
dried tomatoes. Drink now or over the next five years.
Eyrie Vineyards, Pinot Gris, Dundee Hills, Willamette
Valley, Oregon | 17.99/194.29
From the granddaddy
of Pinot Gris in Oregon, the legendary Eyrie Vineyards
is back with a vengeance. In 1970 Eyrie produced Oregon's
very first Pinot Gris. Forty-three years later, Eyrie
has released yet another classic Oregon Pinot Gris with
a rich golden color and refreshing aromas of Williams
pears, smoky soil and buttery tarte tatin. On the palate,
Eyrie's just-released 2013 Pinot Gris offers a
fleshy yellow plum and fresh apricot expression, followed
by a perfumed mineral streak that reminds us of a fine
Condrieu. The wine finishes with complex suggestions
of ginger, jasmine and Meyer lemon. Jason Lett carries
the torch of elegance lit by his father, and this is
absolutely gorgeous, textbook Oregon Pinot Gris from
the Willamette Valley's most legendary estate.
Enjoy now or over the coming seven years with sturgeon,
salmon, halibut, oysters, roast chicken and braised
pork preparations.
Thevenet et Fils, Saint-Veran, Clos de l'Ermitage
St. Claude, Vieilles Vignes, Burgundy, France | 19.99/215.89
White Burgundy lovers
rejoice! The honest, old-school wines of Saint-Veran's
Thevenet family are back! Thevenet's Clos de l'Ermitage
Saint Claude Vieilles Vignes is their prestige cuvee,
crafted from the 70-year-old estate vines. These old
vines express themselves in both an impressively soil-driven
nose and explosive concentration on the palate. A brilliant
lemon-gold in the glass, Thevenet's Clos de l'Ermitage
casts limestone-infused aromas of buttered pears, wildflower
honey and smoke. Brisk and tense on the fore-palate,
the wine opens to reveal gorgeously pure impressions
of Bartlett pears, lemon and sweet butter. Long and
savory, the wine's smoky clay-limestone undercurrent
shows impressive persistence while notes of lemon balm,
menthol and ginger linger on its long finish. A superb
buy for enjoyment now and over the coming five years
with broiled salmon, pan-seared chicken breast, medium
aged chevres, and recipes highlighting the noble chanterelle.
Be sure to serve this at cool cellar temperature –
not too cold – so that the wine's old vine
intensity and smoky mineral soil notes can fully reveal
Drouhin-Vaudon, Chablis, Burgundy, France | 17.99/194.29
The Moulin de Vaudon,
an eighteenth-century watermill on the Serein River,
is headquarters for Joseph Drouhin's Chablis endeavors.
Over the decades, Drouhin has quietly crafted excellent
Chablis, and now these wines are firmly entrenched in
the region's upper echelon. Pale green-tinged
lemon gold in the glass, Drouhin-Vaudon's 2012
Chablis casts broad, classic Chablis limestone soil
notes alongside hints of fresh lemon zest. Ample and
fleshy on the palate, lemon and grapefruit expressions
mingle with suggestions of smoky, flinty limestone soil,
ginger and hazelnuts. Further waves of limestone segue
the wine to its long finish featuring added notes of
unripe pineapple and candied lemons. Drouhin-Vaudon's
Chablis is drinking smashingly well at this early stage,
but will reward five years' patience in your cool
cellar. Pair with all things seafood, vegetable souffles,
mashed potatoes, light poultry and pork preparations.
Domaine Maurice Schoech, Cotes d'Ammerschwihr,
Alsace, France | 18.99/205.09
The Schoech family
traces its roots in the vineyards of Ammerschwihr back
to 1650. The current domaine was established in 1971
and boasts a superb portfolio of traditional Alsatian
wines. This is Schoech's delicious everyday white
blend, fashioned from primarily Pinot Blanc with a dollop
of Muscat, all grown on hillside vineyards situated
at the beginning of the valley south of Ammerschwihr.
A brilliant lime-glinted lemon gold color, Schoech's
Cotes d'Ammerschwihr fuses a base of fleshy, pear
and green apple scented Pinot Blanc with exotic Muscat
notes of orange zest, muskmelon and linden blossom.
Ripping acidity balances the wine's fleshy fruit
expression and lifts the wine's top notes of mint,
kaffir lime leaves and orange blossom honey. Schoech's
Cotes d'Ammerschwihr finishes long, crisp, clean
and begging for food. If you're looking for a
versatile wine that will complement all your Thanksgiving
fare, look no further than this elegant Alsatian beauty
from Maurice Schoech. Enjoy now and over the coming
three years.
2010 Domaine des Baumard, Savennieres,
Loire Valley, France (S) | 21.99/237.49
The noble Chenin Blanc
grape reaches its pinnacle as a dry wine in the complex,
schist-dominated terroir of Savennieres in the Loire
valley's Anjou sector. We're thrilled to
be able to offer this stellar example from the legendary
Domaine des Baumard that brilliantly expresses the 2010
vintage's classic, racy, soil-driven profile.
Baumard's 2010 is a superb, spine-tingling Savennieres
that opens with a brilliant gold hue and a knockout
dose of Savennieres' smoky, assertive schistose
minerals. Brisk on the attack, the wine's acidity
and ineffable minerality lift and electrify its fleshy
core of preserved lemon, Mirabelle plum and quince fruit.
Notes of chamomile, beeswax and ginger mark the long,
grand cru finish, followed by a dusting of dissolved
saline minerals that lingers on your lips. Baumard's
Savennieres are renowned for their early appeal as well
as their ability to age. Thus, we suggest pairing this
over the next year or two with medium to rich seafood
dishes, and then allow the rest of your case to mature
for another seven to twelve years while it gracefully
adds complexity, richness, texture and nuance.
Falchini, Vernaccia di San Gimignano, Vigna a Solatio,
Tuscany, Italy | 10.50/113.40
Falchini, undoubtedly
one of San Gimignano's finest and most venerable
estates, enjoys yet another well-deserved appearance
in this newsletter with this classically fresh, dry
and delicious single-vineyard Vernaccia. A lemon-gold
hue in the glass, Falchini's Vigna a Solatio casts
aromas of pear skin, fennel and white meadow flowers.
Brisk and refreshing on the palate, the wine conveys
suggestions of crisp Bartlett pear and green melon fruit
mingling with zesty acidity, menthol and bitter medicinal
herbs. Crisp and clean on the finish with lingering
notes of grapefruit, lime, melon, almond skin and smoky
minerals, Falchini's Vernaccia drinks impeccably
well by itself, and will perform splendidly as partner
to fresh and semi-firm cheeses, pastas tossed in olive
oil, the entire seafood spectrum, and light poultry
preparations. Enjoy now and over the coming year.
Terradora Dipaolo, Falanghina, Irpinia, Campania, Italy
| 13.99/151.09
Falanghina is one of
southern Italy's most historic and noble white
wine grapes. Terredora Dipaolo estate's commitment
to excellence is evident in this brilliant lemon-gold
Falanghina, which shows an especially beguiling fusion
of white flowers, beeswax and subtle tropical fruits.
The 2013 Falanghina begins with captivating aromas of
star fruit, pear blossoms and freshly-cut pineapple.
Fresh and snappy, the wine's palate meshes pineapple,
lemon and quince fruit with brisk acidity and a subtle
volcanic mineral undercurrent. On the finish, the Falanghina
turns up the volume on its minerality as the dissolved
volcanic dustiness merges with the wine's acidity
to lift its fruit profile and make it especially versatile
at the table. Drink this superb Falanghina now with
sushi, clams, mussels, squid, vegetarian fare and seafood
pasta dishes sporting lots of extra virgin olive oil
and fresh garlic.
Tintero, Grangia, Vino Bianco Secco, Piedmont, Italy
| 9.99/107.89
Oh my goodness,
this is delicious! Imagine Txakolí or Vinho Verde
with a Piemontese twist. A blend of 50% indigenous Favorita,
25% Moscato, 20% Arneis and 5% Chardonnay, the pale
straw-colored Grangia sports an intentional dose of
trapped CO-2. Herbal, lemony and chalky on the nose,
the wine revives and refreshes on the palate with lemon,
lime and tangerine fruit complemented by suggestions
of hops, musk, cardamom pods and tarragon. Dry on the
finish, the wine adds electric limestone minerality
alongside notes of beeswax, clover honey and lemon thyme.
Terrific by itself as an aperitivo, the Tintero Grangia
will also pair well with antipasti, grilled fish and
vegetables, light soups and young cheeses. Drink over
the coming year to capture all the wine's electric
Domaines Des Baumard, Carte Turquoise, Cremant de Loire,
France | 19.99/215.89
A Chenin Blanc and
Cabernet Franc blend that delivers quality and finesse
at Champagne level, at less than half the price.
Ampelidae, Armance B., Brut, Loire Valley, France |
This a fantastic value
sparkling wine made in the traditional Champagne method.
A blend of 60% Chardonnay and 40% Folle Blanche makes
for a beautifully floral sparkling wine of considerable
finesse and elegance.
Bereche & Fils, Brut Reserve, Montagne de Reims,
Vallee de la Marne, Champagne, France | 39.99/431.89
An equal blend of Chardonnay,
Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, this low-dosage Champagne
with its crisp, lemon, almond and apple fruit will bring
stars to your eyes. Very elegant and sophisticated.
NV Pares
Balta, B, Cava Brut, Penedes, Spain | 14.99/161.89
Spicy mineral
and citrus peel aromas, with a hint of yellow plum.
Fresh and broad on the palate, showing notes of orange,

b) Agreed about the quickness! The players you mentioned were all very fast not to mention Stajan and Kulemin! At the beginning I kept noticing this #41 skating around out there I was thinking "who is that guy" found out Kulemin, love it.
c)Ya Schenn looked decent in his debut, and once again Kulemin didn't do a lot but you could see him getting into the mix and he really does skate well. Give him a couple months more in North America, by X-mas he'll be looking sweet.
d) I really thought it looked strange with the 2 hands on teh stick in your own end. I never heard about that before and Tlusty wasn't buying into it ahaha. Ian White made that great outlet pass to Earl, but he was lost in his own end and refused to take the guy in front on the 3rd of 4th goal.

Some things I noticed
a) we wont get pushed around. we didnt have mayers in the lineup or even our biggest players like antropov, pony and kubina and while the sabres are pretty small pups themselves, we didnt back down. if we're going to go down, we might as well go down fighting, hitting and making life difficult. hollweg was really good at that. can he keep it up? tahts hard to say. he has a rep for taking really dumb penalties. but with all the bodies around, i think he knows he has to play more controlled and not be selfish. he got under the skin of the sabres and walked away lots of times but when he needed to, he fought. he must do that to stay in the lineup. its really important for the leafs to avoid their usual half dozen blowouts which have happened the last 3 years. perhaps it was coaching and/or leadership and/or goaltending but the leafs were rolled over too many times and simply quit. if tehy can stop that trend, call that a huge success.
b) team speed. wow, we're quick or at the very least we have some quick players. its very possible that the sabres were just going through the motions but the leafs used their speed well and created plays from it. players like blake, tlusty, hollweg, they really used their legs and were going full tilt. moore impressed me the most. he really looks like he has an extra step. even on D, carlo, van ryn, thats some pretty good mobility.
c) the kids. well kulemin didnt do too much but you can see he has decent hockey sense and two way smarts. he was in decent position most of the way but clearly he isnt a game breaker. he makes lots of smart plays though and if the leafs do start this quick pass offence, he'll fit in well. he was really good at making tape to tape quick short passes to players in stride. tlusty used his speed quite a bit and was effective opposite blake. they create havoc. schenn, well what can you say? solid. at 18, first ever NHL game. yeah nerves got the better of him, but he played a safe solid game. pogge starred in the 2nd period even if he kinda struggled in the 3rd. he wasnt terrible. he looked athletic and quick and should keep the marlies a good team this year. earl scored on a nice breakaway, he's quick too.
d) the system. its a work in progress. 2 practices and 1 game will not solve anything. but in time, maybe by february, they will start to "get it". they were taking away lanes and blocked 31 shots on the night. pretty impressive since it seemed last year they didnt do that in a month. if they use their speed, they should get back into position better. and while they were hemmed in their zone a few times, they didnt panic all that much. they collapsed, got in the way and stayed patient for the most part. still a lot to learn and lots to improve but all in all its good to know they're listening. they do have a million bad habits to break but with so many newcomers, not all of them were taught the wrong way the last 3 years.
i also liked the team's effort. the worked hard almost every shift. coliacovo again teased us with the impact he can have. but with the way he needs to play to be effective, i cant see him staying healthy playing taht way.
on the down side. silly penalties and a weak PK. plus a bad start. the sharks were one of the best 1st period teams. thats a goal for the leafs, to start strongly. i believe the last 3 opening nights the leafs were scored upon on the very first shot attempt on goal. if anything i think the leafs woes at the start of games were due mostly to just laziness and a total lack of concentraction and intrest in playing. wilson i dont think will allow that to happen.
white unfortunately has a long way to go to make the team. his lack of size is such a huge disadvantage. he is easily beatable. kronvall was ok but really has to stand out to make the team. not sure if he has the talent to beat out all the other guys.
all in all, a really small first baby step. they'll have their difficulties i have no doubt. not every game they'll score 7 goals, certainly not every game will they come out on top. its a work in progress and there is lots of work to do. as long as the 23 guys band together and really want to work at getting better and are open to learn and adapt to what is being taught to them, i think in a few months, tehy will start to see a few results and that foundation and identity the leafs have not had whatsoever in the JFJ era. i say around february they start to "get it"]]>

# 11-Through The Valley of the Shadow: The Search for the Abbotsford Killer
For half a year, the man who came to be known as the Abbotsford killer terrorized the valley community.
On Friday, Oct. 13, 1995, two teenage girls - Tanya Smith, 16, and Misty Cockerill, 15 - were attacked by Terry Driver in the heart of the city. Smith's body was found near the Vedder Canal. Driver had clubbed Cockerill seven times in the head with a baseball bat, but she managed to get to the nearby hospital to tell her story.
The case was a bizarre cat and mouse game; the murderer taunted the public and the police by dumping a gravestone on a vehicle at a local radio station. The killer would call the station and police from local phone booths, saying he would kill again. People, women and girls in particular, deserted the streets at dusk, too afraid to be out on their own.
Dozens of Abbotsford Police officers worked with the RCMP, tracking down the suspect.
The case broke when two things happened: investigators found a complete fingerprint on an envelope that was with an item Driver had thrown into a window. The second was when Driver's own mother recognized his voice on tapes the police made public.
Rod Gehl, a retired Abbotsford police inspector who took the first call from Driver back in 1995, will discuss his book on the case, called, Through the Valley of the Shadow: The Search for the Abbotsford Killer.

Interview with Stacey McKitrick
Abbotsford, BC Country artist Stacey McKitrick was singing from the start. At the age of nine months, she would often be heard around the house singing along to her favourite artist, Reba McEntire. By the time she was 10, she was spending every free moment singing and making stage shows for friends and family. Along with singing, she embraced songwriting early on: "I've been writing my own songs since I was nine years old - my first song was called 'If You Could Touch A Rainbow'. When I was thirteen years old, I began writing songs as a way to release my feelings and channel my creativity; songwriting continues to be a strong artistic outlet for me." She's been to Nashville to write with some of the top writers around. Stacey's debut CD is set for release shortly and will take her that much closer to being a big name in Country music.

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has given the most definitive indication yet that the platform holder will not develop for rival systems, stating that it would only be a strategy he'd employ if he did not care about the company.
Speaking to CVG contributor Steve Boxer, Iwata insisted that his job is to secure long-term prosperity for the company, rather than jump on quick fixes.
"If I was to take responsibility for the company for just the next one or two years, and if I was not concerned about the long-term future of Nintendo at all, it might make sense for us to provide our important franchises for other platforms, and then we might be able to gain some short-term profit," he said.
"However, I'm really responsible for the long-term future of Nintendo as well, so I would never think about providing our precious resources for other platforms at all."
Since the launch of Wii U, various executives within the games industry have suggested Nintendo could restore its fortunes by developing software for other platforms.
In June, the respected Eidos life president Ian Livingstone said Nintendo should have its IP on every platform.
As well as branding this as a fast-buck policy, Iwata said such a switch would remove one of the company's pillar assets.
"What I believe is that Nintendo is a very unique company, because it does its business by designing and introducing people to hardware and software - by integrating them, we can be unique. And because we have hardware and software developers in the same building, they stimulate each other," he said.
"And those kinds of conditions have enabled us to create something that no other companies can create. Those kinds of backgrounds are there behind the fact that such a number of great Nintendo franchises exist, and those great franchises always shine for people around the world."
Since its November 2012 launch, Nintendo has been challenged by the Wii U underperforming globally at retail. In July, the company revealed that only 160,000 units had been sold around the world in three months, which it blamed on "the release of few key first-party titles".
As well as the firm's initial struggles with HD development resources, Iwata said the company is also challenged by the expectations of its audience.
"I would say that the people's expectations about what will come next from Nintendo is becoming higher and higher," he said. "So we are facing more challenges than ever - that's true.
"But it's nothing new for Nintendo. Nintendo is a company that has never stopped progressing, and when it comes to the fan-base, of course, we have to sustain that, but we are always trying to expand that."
Nintendo's first financial quarter (ending June 30, 2013) resulted in net profits of 8.6 billion yen (£57m / $88m), thanks largely to the strong performance of 3DS.

I'm working on a simple project to create tables and insert data into them, and finally execute some queries. Please note: I'm using the MySQL command client.
My schema is easy to implement; it's no problem.
Emp(eid: integer, ename: string, age: integer, salary: real)
Works(eid: integer, did: integer, pct_time: integer)
Dept(did: integer, budget: real, managerid: integer)
My first question:
- Find the department with the highest average age of employees.
When I first read the question, it seems easy. However while implementing I can't get the results. I have many queries like this, can someone explain the steps to make these queries easier?
I use the following query to get the avg ages of the all employees. The next step is to get the MAX age, but how?
> SELECT AVG(E.age) FROM DEPT D,EMP E,WORKS W
> WHERE D.did=W.did and
> W.eid=E.eid GROUP BY D.did
If you know any good books for just understanding these types of queries, that will be fine for me.
Second question:
Sometimes some instructors or database managers want the relational algebra of the queries?
Why is knowing the relational algebra of the queries important?
And can we all implement all these complex queries by using relational algebra?

Hank Winchester brings you the latest update from the Bob Bashara court case.
His illness halted the trial, but it resumed Monday.

She said she was in the Bashara family's Grosse Pointe Park home before Jane Bashara's murder. She said she got an excuse from Bob about why it appeared he was still sleeping with Jane.
Rachel Gillett was nervous early on, but her testimony is key.

The jury, including alternates, consists of 11 men and 5 women.

He was in court Tuesday, clean-cut and mild-mannered.

Virus likely in Manitoba: expert
Doctors, nurses on alert for signs of disease
SWINE flu has likely arrived in Manitoba -- it just hasn't made anyone severely ill yet. That was the message from the province's top medical official Wednesday, as global experts sounded the alarm bell that human swine flu is one step closer to becoming a worldwide pandemic.
Manitoba's chief medical officer Dr. Joel Kettner said he has no doubt the human swine flu virus is circulating in the province, considering the number of Manitobans who frequent Mexico and the fact the viral outbreak has cropped up in other Canadian provinces.

- Experts worry mild disease outside of Mexico hampers bid to get people to prepare
So far, there have been nine suspected cases of swine flu in Manitoba, but all tested negative for the virus.
Doctors and nurses across the province are on the lookout for patients with symptoms of severe respiratory illness who have recently travelled to Mexico, including patients with a high, persistent fever, shortness of breath and chest pain.
"I have no doubt that it is in Manitoba, in people," Kettner said. "It's showing up all across Canada, it's showing up all around the world, so I think it's probably here too."
The growing threat of swine flu has raised questions about whether Manitoba is doing enough to screen people who may have been exposed to the virus.
Winnipegger Mike Babinsky spent a week in the Cancun sun with his wife and two sons at the end of March, where his 13-year-old fell ill with a serious cough and fever. The symptoms persisted, and three weeks ago a Winnipeg doctor prescribed Babinsky's teen with an inhaler.
By the time reports of the human swine flu surfaced, Babinsky said his other son started coughing. That was enough to prompt another visit to the doctor for both of the boys, where Babinsky said the physician refused to test the boys for swine flu. "We're in Mexico, we're close to pigs, they're coughing, they had the flu," Babinsky said, noting his sons went to school while they were coughing. "If you're not going to screen, (is that) why we don't we have any confirmed cases in Manitoba? We went to the doctor and we asked for it."
Kettner said the province is not screening every traveller returning from Mexico or every Manitoban with mild symptoms of swine flu, saying it's impractical and a potential waste of resources. The province's pandemic plan focuses on detecting and treating people who are severely ill, since people with mild symptoms will recover.
Kettner said most people know when they feel sick enough to need a doctor, and anyone with mild flu-like symptoms shouldn't panic. Manitobans can prevent the spread of flu by washing their hands, using hand sanitizer and coughing or sneezing in the crook of their arm to contain the spread of germs.
Family doctors and clinics have been directed to put a mask on anyone who fits the bill for severe respiratory illness, and phone an emergency room to alert staff the patient is en route. Hospital staff are directed to put any patient with a suspected case of swine flu in isolation, and use gloves and gowns when interacting with the patient.
Every province considered testing everyone returning from Mexico with few or no symptoms of swine flu, Kettner said.
"It would be a huge waste of time, money, and we wouldn't have the lab tests when we need them or when there's clusters or outbreaks."

If you're curious to know how well PlanetSide 2 has been doing since its official launch on November 20th, the answer is quite well. SOE boss John Smedley took some time to chat with Games Industry International about the shooter's success. Without giving away any solid numbers, Smedley stated that PlanetSide 2 is "doing an order of magnitude greater revenue daily than any of our other titles."
Smedley also touched on the lackluster success of some of SOE's endeavors into Facebook gaming with titles such as PoxNora and Dungeon Overlord, and from all indications, they're unlikely to return to the social gaming scene anytime soon.
"We discovered that we really weren't interested in doing that as a company, and as a result, the games just didn't come out to the quality level that we were happy with," Smedley explained. "So we decided that we didn't want to be in that space."
Smedley ended the interview with some optimism about MMOs and the next generation of consoles, lamenting the success of DC Universe Online on the PlayStation 3 but also the difficulty in creating such games for the current console generation.

It is good to remember that India along with China and a few other developing countries has posted positive growth numbers
At the end of the year 2009 there are reasons to be optimistic about the Indian economy. The real economy and the financial markets are better than at the start of the year.
There are however pitfalls in drawing conclusions from comparing indicators such as GDP growth estimates and stock market indices over specific timeframes.
Even so, according to the widely watched indicators — the stock indices and the CSO (Central Statistical Organisation) growth estimates — the stock markets and the economy have shown resilience in the face of one of the most adverse economic environments in many decades.
It is good to remember that India along with China and a few other developing countries has posted positive growth numbers, albeit below recent trend rates, when economic growth in nearly all developed countries has turned negative.
The International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and other world bodies have acknowledged that fact and, what is more, expect the developing countries to be in the forefront of an eventual global recovery.
That is precisely what has been happening. While the U.S., Japan and most other developed countries are technically out of the recession, their growth is still anaemic. The U.S. economy is beset with high unemployment. Japan recently lowered its growth estimates sharply.
India, China fare better
On the other hand, economic news from India (and China) has been getting better by the day. In fact, at year end, there is hope that India's GDP growth will bounce back to an annualised 8 per cent level.
The most distinguishing feature of the recent performance is perhaps not the attainment of high growth rates but the steady acceleration seen.
It has not been a steady one way upward movement of the growth estimates though.
In fact, on several occasions, sceptics have questioned the sustainability of a particular growth forecast. GDP growth in the second half of 2008-09 had come down to 5.8 per cent.
During the first quarter of the current year it had come down to 6.1 per cent but by the end of the second quarter (July-September 2009) it had recovered sharply with a 7.9 per cent growth over last year.
It is primarily based on this unexpected growth that many forecasters have started revising upward the annual growth rate for 2009-10.
As recently as in July, the Economic Survey had indicated a target range of 6.25-7.75 per cent. The wide range probably reflects the inability to make a more accurate forecast in the face of sometimes conflicting evidence.
The government's mid-year review of the economy (December 18, 2009) expects the economy to grow even faster, perhaps close to 8 per cent.
Short-term anxieties
Two relevant issues need to be addressed here. First, is the forecast rate of around 8 per cent for the current year achievable? Second, will India get back onto a high growth trajectory and aim for double digit growth rates?
Obviously, short-term growth prospects depend on how well agriculture fares during the third quarter (October-December).
During the second quarter, when the overall growth rate was 7.9 per cent, agriculture grew by just 0.9 per cent, down from 2.7 per cent a year ago and 2.4 per cent in the first quarter.
The low growth of 0.9 per cent does not take into account the shortfall in kharif production of rice, pulses and oilseeds. The inference is that industry and services will have to fare exceptionally well to make up for the lag in agriculture.
Inflation threat
The biggest stumbling block could be inflation. With food inflation around 20 per cent, policymakers are at their wits' end to deal with the price rise. Although this bout of inflation is traced to supplyside factors — inadequate supply of food articles in the face of rising demand — sooner rather than later monetary measures will become necessary.
Sustained rise in the prices of essential articles will push up inflation expectations further.
Besides, there will be second order effects from inflation that will spill over into the demand side, necessitating RBI intervention. In what form and when the central bank will intervene is still in the area of speculation. It may involve a CRR (cash reserve ratio) hike (to drain liquidity) and/or a hike in repo rates (short-term interest rate signals).
Indian industry and services have benefited from the stimulus packages and easy monetary stance. But these will have to be withdrawn at some point. Viewed in a larger context, the gross fiscal deficit at 10 per cent of the GDP cannot be tolerated for long.
The Finance Minister has already hinted at a return to the path of fiscal rectitude. The relatively high growth figures of the last quarter may be one other reason prompting the RBI to tighten monetary policy.
To place the current growth rate in perspective, the economy grew by 7.2 per cent on an average between 2000-01 and 2004-05 and by 9.2 per cent between 2005-06 and 2007-08.
The current growth rate is in line with the long-term trend. Regaining a 9 per cent growth trajectory will be a task for the medium-term.

November 25, 2014
A Georgia man, who's been in the Walton County jail for the last five months, is now facing more charges.
Walton County Sheriff's Investigators say they now have evidence they need to tie 23-year old Steven Ryan Ritchie to more crimes.
They received the results of a fingerprint analysis this week from the state crime lab they say ties Ritchie to a vehicle burglary and an attmepted home burglary last August.
Deputies first arrested Ritchie on August 27th. Around 6:30 that evening, Deputy Marjorie Ginell King spoted him at a Express Lane gas station at the corner of Highway 331 and State Road 20 in a stolen 1999 Jeep.
As she was waiting for back-up, Ritchie allegedly got into the Jeep, began rolling backwards toward King's patrol car, then jumped out.
The jeep hit King's car, injuring her shoulder.
That set-off a five hour manhunt, that ended with Ritchie's arrest near Freeport.
A few days later, authorities harged Ritchie with armed burglary, grand theft, and firearm theft for an August 17th burglary at a Santa Rosa Beach home.
They say Ritchie stole more than $10,000 worth of property.
He's also wanted for outstanding warrants in Cherokee County, Georgia.

Foles, Eagles hoping to stay hot against Packers
Published On: Nov 09 2013 07:31:38 PM CST
Suddenly, the prospects of an Eagles win in Green Bay don't seem too far-fetched.
When the Eagles travel to the Packers on Sunday, they'll do so on the heels of Nick Foles record-tying performance in Oakland last week.
Foles became the first quarterback in NFL history to throw for over 400 yards with seven touchdown passes and no interceptions last Sunday.
Now, he'll lead the Eagles against a Green Bay team that will be without its All-Pro quarterback, Aaron Rodgers.
The Eagles will take a 4-5 record into Sunday's game.
