- Level:
- Easy
- 1/2 cup skin-on almonds
- 1/2 cup packed fresh mint leaves, plus more for garnish
- 1/4 cup honey
- 6 just-under-ripe white peaches, halved and pitted
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 cup mascarpone cheese
Combine the almonds, mint and honey in a food processor and process until smooth.
Preheat the grill for high heat direct grilling.
Brush the cut side of the peaches with canola oil and grill until golden brown and caramelized, about 1 1/2 minutes. Flip and continue grilling until just heated through, about 1 minute longer. Arrange the halves on a platter, cut-side up. Spoon some pesto into the pit hollows and then top with a little dollop of mascarpone. Garnish with torn mint leaves and serve immediately.

The Cranberry Show - Revelations
Artist: The Cranberry Show
Producer: 40 Mill
Album: JENESIS Magazine Presents: Under the Radar
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 8 votes )
Unable to Watch this Youtube Video? Click here to play in Soundcloud instead.
Since September, when The Cranberry Show dropped off the official visuals for reader-acclaimed single Traffic Lights, fans have been waiting on their next broadcast like I've been waiting on the final episodes of Breaking Bad. (August 2013?! AMC, you're killing me!) Today, the Milwaukee duo return to kick off their latest season of fresh tunes with Revelations, a previously-unreleased cut. Here, 40 Mill's flips a sample of Bob Marley's Revolution as Young Focus and Arcane blend the witty and braggadocious ("Like a fisherman, I came to bring the real (reel) back.") with the quotidian ("I just eat pizza rolls and f*ck b*tches."). Like what you're hearing? Stay tuned to The DJBooth for more new music leading up to the December 20, arrival of JENESIS Magazine's Under the Radar street album.

I agree. But where, from your standpoint, is the package manager? I found one the strong points of Linux is that you have your central installation place.
What I would like to see is a change of culture, more tailored to the users who like experimenting and trying new things out:
In Windows I like that it is customary to offer all-in-one binaries, even if you only release a super-early techdemo in a forum.
For me that means: Especially for some super-early tech demos in forums. Instead of an undocumented github page where I have to read the code first to figure out the dependencies.
Bottom line:
More binaries for small and obscure software, for the time between release and adopting into package manager (even if that is years).
In the end I like my pacman and I always find it nice to see that the Arch package is there in binary form and not only an AUR script.

Canadian iPhone 4 launch details emerge
A few details of the upcoming Canadian iPhone 4 launch have emerged. iLounge has confirmed with the Apple Store Eaton Centre in Toronto that the store will be opening at 7:00 a.m. Friday, July 30 for device's launch and will be selling the iPhone 4 at full price unlocked, or on-contract from all four major Canadian carriers. We were told that no other Toronto-based Apple Store is expected to alter its hours, but are awaiting additional confirmation from a second store. In addition, iLounge was told that no personal shopping appointments or pre-reservations will be offered, meaning all units will be sold on a first-come first-serve basis, and no official pricing has been announced despite recent reports to the contrary. Apple will launch the iPhone 4 in Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland this Friday, July 30.
Update: iLounge has confirmed that the Apple Store Fairview will also be opening at 7:00 a.m., potentially indicating an early opening for all Canadian Apple Stores.

Future of Nursing Initiative
THURSDAY, June 23 (HealthDay News) -- Initiatives to expand HIV testing, including an opt-out HIV screening approach used among inmates during prison medical intake evaluation, appear to be effective in identifying new HIV cases, according to two reports in the June 24 issue of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report.
The CDC evaluated data from its Expanded HIV Testing Initiative, which was an effort that funded 25 health departments, starting in October 2007, to facilitate HIV screening and increase diagnoses of HIV infections and linkage to care among populations disproportionately affected by HIV, non-Hispanic blacks in particular. The data revealed that 2,786,739 HIV tests were conducted, of which 29,503 (1.1 percent) were positive and 18,432 (0.7 percent) resulted in new HIV diagnoses. The data also revealed that blacks accounted for 1,411,780 (60 percent) of tests and 11,638 (70 percent) of new HIV diagnoses. Clinical settings accounted for 90 percent of all tests and 81 percent of all new HIV diagnoses.
In another study, the Washington State Department of Corrections (WADOC) evaluated HIV testing data for male inmates undergoing intake medical evaluation between January 2006 and December 2010. Before September 2007, WADOC provided HIV testing to inmates on request only. But, starting at that time, WADOC began routine HIV opt-in screening, and in March 2010, it switched to opt-out screening. The data revealed that, between Jan. 1, 2006, and Aug. 1, 2007, 5 percent of 12,202 incoming inmates were tested for HIV at their request during the intake medical evaluation, and three (0.50 percent) of those tested had newly diagnosed HIV infection. Between Sept. 1, 2007, and March 15, 2010, 72 percent of 16,908 inmates agreed to opt-in HIV screening, and 13 (0.11 percent) tested positive for HIV. The data also revealed that 90 percent of 5,168 inmates agreed to opt-out HIV screening, and six (0.13 percent) tested positive for HIV between March 16, 2010, and Dec. 1, 2010.
"Compared with routine opt-in HIV screening, opt-out HIV screening was associated with a greater proportion of inmates tested, without decreasing the rate of case detection," the authors write.

Macomb County opens reference research center
Thursday, May 06, 2010
The old Macomb County Library building on Hall Road has reopened as the Wayne State University Macomb Education Center.
Wayne State took over the 29,000-square-foot building last year and invested $3.4 million into breathing new life into the circa-1979 structure. Today it primarily hosts classes for Wayne State students, but it also houses the Macomb County's Reference and Research Center.
"The building is beautiful," says Sandy Casamer, manager of the
Macomb County's Reference and Research Center
Renovations include new paint, carpet, light fixtures, restrooms, and a new layout to the single-story building at 16480 Hall Road. The Reference and Research Center offers 75 databases to the public, as well as access to databases from Wayne State University. It also maintains a 2,000-volume reference collection, Wi-Fi, and 12 internet terminals for public use. Databases are accessible through its
new Web address

Oakland Schools Technical Campus adds solar, wind systems
Thursday, May 06, 2010
The Oakland Schools Technical Campus in Clarkston is going for a twofer in alternative energy, installing both a solar- and a wind-power system.
Over the last year,
Oak Electric
has been working with the school to get approvals for permits and to sort out engineering issues. The foundations for the solar panels and the wind turbine have been poured and installation of the actual equipment will begin next week. Both systems should be up and running by the end of May.
The school district is spending $36,000 to install a two-kilowatt ground-mount solar system, which will be installed first. Next is a 2.4 kilowatt
wind turbine that will stand 45 feet tall.
Both systems will be used to power the campus. They will also be used as teaching tools for students to learn about the ins and out of alternative energy.

Downtown Auburn Hills offers free Wi-Fi
Thursday, May 06, 2010
Downtown Auburn Hills is now laptop friendly after installing free Wi-Fi service for the quaint city center.
The new service allows anyone with a laptop or a smartphone to surf the Internet with wild abandon. This came about as one of the recommendations of the city's 2009 HyettPalma Economic Enhancement Strategy for the Downtown.
"That's what people said they wanted to see if they moved down to the area or work there," says Peter Auger, city manager for Auburn Hills.
Local leaders also see the service as a way to make the area a desirable destination. Other suggestions include increasing business development, making public improvements, and marketing and managing the downtown.
"We'll see where it goes," Auger says. "If it reaches the point where we should increase the bandwidth, that's a good story."
Auburn Hills-based Netarx, a Wi-Fi vendor, used Cisco equipment to make the service operational. The total price for installation came to $43,358.78, which was funded by the city's tax increment finance authority.

Q&A with Ron Campbell on the Oak Street Fair
Thursday, May 06, 2010
Preserving and improving existing building stock will be a central theme to this year's
Oak Street Fair
in Hazel Park. The event will focus on helping Oakland County's urban stakeholders revitalize their neighborhoods through sustainable rehabilitation and playing to the area's strengths, such as its local character.
The free event will be held in Scout Park from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday. Ron Campbell, a principal planner/preservation architect for Oakland County Planning & Economic Development, is helping organize the event and Oakland County's Oak Street program. He agreed to answer a few questions over email about the event and preservation of the region's housing stock.
In a sentence or two, could you sum up what people attending the Oak Street Fair could come away with in regards to improving their home and their neighborhood?
Oak Street and the Oak Street House is a generic term that we are applying to any house built before 1960. We want these home owners to realize that their homes are unique. The issue of keeping and maintaining a house built in 1890 is going to be different than it will be for a house built in 1930, which will be different than for a house built in 1950. Homeowners should come away understanding that maintenance and repair can be very cost effective and there are resources available from experts who understand and have worked with older homes, which is far different than new construction. We want to build a resource bank of knowledgeable and skilled people to share with homeowners.
Metro Detroit's urban housing stock is aging and in many cases crossing the century mark, but many of its building and housing policies, practices, and even conventional wisdom are geared toward new housing. Could you name one policy or idea that either already is or could help bring more of a focus on making the most of the building stock that we have?
A good example that comes to mind is Oakland County's Oak Street program. The primary purpose of Oak Street is to make homeowners and local officials more aware of the economic and social value embodied in established neighborhoods. Also, there are many existing programs/movements focusing on the existing housing stock. The Community Development Block Grant Funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act has also provided focus to the importance of existing neighborhoods and homes. But by far the best-known one is the green movement or sustainable design. If it makes sense to recycle soda cans and bottles, how much more sense does it make to recycle our buildings. The greenest house in America today is one that you don't have to build �because it already exists. Building green is more than using Energy Star appliances and bamboo flooring. It is far more environmentally friendly to repair than replace. Fairgoers will find exhibitors to show how you can be green, save money, and have curbside appeal for your home.
Historic preservation is a term that everyone in Metro Detroit seems to easily identify with but is not the best at when it comes to practicing its ideas. The state also recently passed enhanced historical preservation incentives. How much of an impact could these incentives have on making local stakeholders more preservation inclined?
There are various incentives for historic homes, including tax credits, which are effective for those stakeholders, but those incentives apply only to a very small percentage of the existing housing stock. While historic preservation is a component and tool within the Oak Street program, Oak Street is more of a smart rehab program than a historic preservation program. We would certainly advise homeowners to the principals of historic preservation when they repair and remodel their homes; but it would be more with an eye to the economic and environmental sense it makes. The more we can help people realize the extent of the investment our neighborhoods represent and the benefit that we all receive when that investment and unique character that distinguishes their house or neighborhood from others is protected, then the more new and innovative programs will be available to help this larger population.
Name an idea, policy, or mindset from elsewhere that you would like to see this region adopt?
We don't have to go too far to find examples of strong and vibrant neighborhoods. They are sprinkled throughout this region. What helps neighborhoods stand out comes from the housing stock being maintained and the intrinsic character of the houses and neighborhood being preserved. Recognizing what the important features and character are is difficult to put a finger on, but it includes everything from architectural style to walkability. Oak Street is envisioned to help homeowners and neighborhoods discover theirs and provide the means to protect it.

Celebrate construction kick-off for Newberry Hall on May 6
Model D
Thursday, May 06, 2010
It's getting hard to keep count of all of the historic rehabs going on in Midtown, Detroit's most vibrant and dynamic neighborhood. The latest addition to that list of investment is the new life that is being breathed into the Newberry Hall by the Detroit Medical Center.
It's taken 4 1/2 years to get off the ground, but renovation is now underway at Newberry Hall, the former nurses' housing located on John R at Willis in Midtown. Built in 1898, funded by the Newberry family -- major investors in the Packard Motor Co. -- and designed by Elijah Meijer, the architect who designed the Michigan State Capital among several others, the building has "social importance to Detroit and architectural importance to Detroit," says Ernie Zachary of development and finance consultant firm
Zachary and Associates
. "It's a really important building and to lose this building would be criminal."
Over the past few years, the developer has changed, but the goal has remained consistent: to renovate the structure into housing. There will be 28 rental units ranging in size from 700 to 900 square feet available for $1.30/square foot. Zachary expects construction to take a year.

Conceptual design nearly done for Ann Arbor Skatepark
Thursday, May 06, 2010
Ann Arbor's first skatepark will take a big ride toward becoming a reality when conceptual plans are released later today.
What will the plans for Ann Arbor's first
look like when they're revealed later this month? Interested skaters and fans of the longtime underground sport should look east for clues.
Trevor Staples, chair of the
Friends of the Ann Arbor Skatepark
, says they are using the new
Riley Skatepark
in Farmington Hills as a sort of template for what they plan to build. They are also working to make sure storm water run-off is taken care of and public art is incorporated so everyone can enjoy the new facility.
"Our goal is to have something for every skater," Staples says. "We want to have beginner, intermediate, and expert levels right next to each other so they can learn from each other."

Woodward sculptures set for downtown Pontiac, Detroit
Thursday, April 29, 2010
The Woodward Tribute sculpture project is set to gain momentum this summer, now that plans for one in downtown Pontiac have a green light and another in downtown Detroit are primed and ready to go.
General Motors
have pledged $10,000 toward the Pontiac tribute sculpture, helping the Woodward Avenue Action Association (which is spearheading the project) meet the $150,000 price tag. Construction is set to begin in late July or early August and complete by the
Woodward Dream Cruise
"Once they break ground it only takes a week or two to install," says Nicole Brown, outreach and promotions coordinator for the
Woodward Avenue Action Association
The non-profit is also finalizing plans for the tribute sculpture in downtown Detroit this spring. Once the location is finalized (near the Spirit of Detroit statue at Woodward and Jefferson avenues) the project will be announced, probably within the next few weeks.
The Woodward Tribute sculptures help raise awareness about the history behind Michigan's Main Street and how important it is to not only the state but the U.S. and the world. The sculptures are normally a robust column a story or two tall that depict part of Woodward's illustrious history.
Ferndale built the
one in its downtown in 2008. More are being planned for other communities along the Woodward corridor.
"We're speaking to several different communities to go forward with a fourth one," Brown says. "This is a great piece of art that helps people see the story of Woodward in an artistic way."
The sculptures are funded by a number of organizations. Those chipping in for the Pontiac sculpture are the Federal Highway Administration
National Scenic Byway
funds, Oakland County, and
Genisys Credit Union

Metro Airport installs first wind turbines
Thursday, April 29, 2010
Propellers and jet engines aren't the only thing spinning at Metro Airport these days, now that it has installed a half dozen wind turbines.
The $75,000 project put six
turbines at the north and west sides of the airport. These are not your normal wind turbines. They are made in a cylinder, so the blades are vertical. The made-in-Michigan turbines stand 30 feet tall but measure only four feet wide. They will not interfere with air traffic.
"We're trying to stay as low as possible," says Ali Dib, director of facilities for
Metro Airport
The wind turbines harness wind energy at lower speeds (4.5-5 mph). The electricity will help supplement the demands of the airport and will serve as a testing project to see if more are feasible.
"My CEO has advised me that he would like more," Dib says.
Among the other sustainable features at the airport are recycling aircraft de-icing fluids, using old cooking oil from airport concessions for biofuel for airport vehicles, and $1.5 million worth of LED light fixtures (5,000 in total) for taxiway edge lights. Those lights save more than $12 million in energy costs per year compared to the incandescent fixtures they replaced.
Metro Airport is also looking at a number of other sustainable projects, such as installing solar panels, green roofs, and gray-water recycling.

East Dearborn downtown makes plans for arts district
Thursday, April 29, 2010
The East Dearborn Downtown Development Authority is taking steps to set up an arts district in the city's eastern center.
Downtown leaders see the creation of an arts district as an important tool to both help encourage economic development and to raise the quality of life in the city's eastern downtown, which centers around the Michigan Avenue and Schaeffer Road intersection.
"We have so many vacancies downtown," says Melissa Kania, who is spear heading the project for the
East Dearborn DDA
. "Why not create pop-up galleries? If this building is empty, why not lease it to this artist for a short time and create a gallery?"
That could create more foot traffic for local retail businesses. Local leaders also think it will attract new economy-based entrepreneurs and businesses because the young people behind them often run in the same circles with artists.
The DDA is currently working with
to see if it can create some inexpensive space for artists and other creatively inclined people. One possibility is the former Kroger building, which could serve as a central location for local creatives.
"This is all very conceptual right now," Kania says.
That doesn't mean a good bit of work hasn't gone into it. The DDA recently revealed three sculptures in its downtown to help kick off the effort. The sculptures come from a recent offering of eight pieces from the Midwest Sculpture Initiative. The other five are in Dearborn's western downtown.

Phase 1 of the downtown Belleville streetscape project, done. Phase 2 is underway, while the third and final phase is set to take place this summer.
The hard work is over now that construction crews replaced the sewer and water lines and other infrastructure in the downtown last year as the first phase of the $5.8 million project.
The second phase is to redo the above-ground infrastructure on South Street from Huron River Drive to the railroad tracks and the Fourth Street Square. The final phase, set to begin after the Strawberry Festival in June, will replace Main Street from the Bridge to Huron River Drive. That should wrap up by October.
The above-ground improvements include bigger sidewalks with decorative brick pavers, benches, trash cans, bike racks, and new landscaping. New landscaping, including trees to replace those lost to the Emerald Ash Borer, will also be installed.
No improvements have been made to the downtown streetscape since the early 1990s. An initiative to have the work done via a bond proposal was
last year. This new project is coming mainly from the city's coffers.

Dearborn switches to single stream recycling
Thursday, April 29, 2010
Dearborn will jump into the next level of recycling when the city switches its pick-up system to
The City Council approved the switch, which will allow residents to put all of their recycling into one container. It will also allow for more materials to be recycled. City officials expect the current recycling rate of 20-30 percent of waste to double.
"It would be great to see it double," says Dave Norwood, sustainability coordinator for the city of Dearborn. "We did a pilot test area and it doubled."
The city is going from collecting just No. 1-2 plastics to No. 1-7, including the rarely recycled No. 3. It plans to begin disbursing the new recycling containers this week and move forward with the switch in July.
Among the incentives for going single stream are making it easier for residents to use, meaning more is recycled, expansion of the recycling list, and reduced logistical costs.
Among the other cities that use single-stream recycling are Austin, Texas and

Oakland, Macomb counties push forward green programs
Thursday, April 29, 2010
Oakland and Macomb counties are pushing toward a more sustainable government with a recent spate of announcements for environmentally friendly programs. Those programs include a website dedicated to information activities on sustainability, cutting energy costs through efficiency improvements, and challenging local residents and businesses to cut energy use by 10 percent within the next two years.
That last one is called the OakGreen Challenge and was issued by Oakland County Executive L Brooks Patterson just before the county's second annual
Green Summit
in mid-May.
The program is similar to Ann Arbor Mayor John Hieftje's
Green Energy Challenge
. That initiative, announced in 2005, calls for Ann Arbor to use 20 percent green energy by 2010 for municipal operations and by 2015 for the whole city. The city is now on a path to reach 30 percent green energy usage by the end of the year.
Not to be left out of the energy efficiency fun is Macomb County, which recently announced that it has saved taxpayers $44,400 in energy costs through implementing energy efficient improvements. Those savings took place in the first two months of contracting electrical power from First Energy for nine buildings that draw power from its main powerhouse, plus the Administration Building. The savings are projected to hit $600,000 over the next two years.
Macomb County also recently launched
Green Macomb
, a website dedicated to green initiatives and information. Think of the efforts being undertaken to create everything from energy efficiencies to clean water initiatives.

MDOT to build bike path along I-275
Thursday, April 29, 2010
The rehab of seven miles of bike trail along I-275 in Wayne County got underway this week and promises to make alternative transportation along one of the most heavily traveled corridors much easier.
The $4.1 million project will rehab the trail between Hines Drive and Michigan Avenue. The trail was built in the 1970s and hasn't seen any major infrastructure improvements since. Today it suffers from overgrown vegetation, uneven grades, deteriorating bridges, and cracked asphalt.
"It's in poor condition," says Mike Bellini, transportation engineer for the Michigan Department of Transportation. "It gets worse as you go south."
The project, paid for with federal stimulus funds, is divided into three sections. The first (the northernmost section) will rebuild the trail between Hines and Koppernick. All work should be done by mid-October.
New asphalt will be laid and five bridges rebuilt along the route.

University of Michigan's Five Fellows turn house into public art
Model D
Thursday, April 29, 2010
Opportunity leads to art in Detroit. In this case, it's a combination of University of Michigan students and Hamtramck's Design99 studio.
Five University of Michigan architecture fellows, through the help of Design99, purchased the house at 13178 Moran from the city's foreclosure auction for $500 and have turned it into their architectural canvas and a piece of public art for the neighborhood.
Inside you'll find a Q-Bert-esque staircase, a space called the "Tingle Room," another staircase leading up to a skylight, a removable nook in the back, and the garage drilled with 1,000 holes and jammed with 1,000 glass tubes. Each would require more than 1,000 words for explanation.
"We've collaborated but we have five different projects throughout the house," says Ellie Abrons, one of the fellows.

Brutal Doom/Doom 2 Map - Shell v0.6Sep 29, 2014 DoomDb - The official Doom WAD sharing group! News 1 comment
Brutal Doom/ Doom 2 Map - Shell v0.6 (A Classic Doom Base)
About: DoomDb is a group in Moddb where you can share all the best kinds of Doom WADs out there! (As long as the rules are followed)
1- Always credit the owner. You should also link the owner's homepage when sharing (although that is optional).
2- Its okay to share/post updates about WADs that you are making. If you are going to do this though, don't spam the page with its stuff. A picture or link is always enough ;)
3- Avoid sharing Terry WADs.
4- Avoid any kind of serious discussion in the comments. This group is for sharing WADs and having fun. If the user persists then the comments/image could get deleted.
5- Always contact the author and ask for permission before uploading a wad up here, unless your uploading wads that give you permission to distribute the file in their readme or if they are very old (more than 10 years). Having their mod uploaded in multiple places by other people can make it difficult to ensure everyone is using the latest version. If you are unable to contact the author, or the author says no, then simply don't upload it.
Top Wads:
Many have debated, many have fought, but there is one source that keeps on recognition to those whom stand out from the rest. It started with Cacoawards, but since then a top 100 wads of all time list was started, to cover every year since Doom's release.
Doom 1 and 2 are long in the tooth but that doesn't stop modders from keeping it running on modern systems. Numerous ports that enhance the game to have many options, features, graphical improvements and bug fixes to keep it in tip top shape. The most notable of which:
ZDoom and its offshoot GZDoom (maintained by Graf Zahl)
Zandronum (older version was called Skulltag)
Chocolate Doom
BrutalVideoVault - For all the brutal doom communities concept art and videos, this site will keep you upto to date. Follow the tumblr group, if you wanna get your art featured, pm the facebook page.

The latest alpha for The Space Pirate, version 0.1.2b, has been released!
I finally got my own computer after seven (yes, seven) years with the Doom series (The Ultimate Doom, Doom 2 and Final Doom) as the very first games I got from steam and I am so happy that there is all this awesome free content. I am so ****** off at game companies screwing consumers with crappy day 1 dlc content and half-assed game ports, I am looking at Duke Nukem Forever and Skyrim, there is so much love shown to Doom that I am confident that when I have a family I will give these games to my kids so they can know what true games are. Screw any company that treats people like they are stupid or crap. DOOM forever!
Here Here :D
Welcome to the Doom Family Again, Sorry we lost you for seven years there, But welcome back lol :)
search Aquarius199 on youtube
what if there was a slender mod but not that crappy ghosted mod but an actual slender wad but it might need some time because of masky,hoody and the slenderman you might need to make some sprites that can actually move but it might be more fun if it has like the slender the arrival feeling into it to so if this is a idea to any mod makers than here it is.
Someone will go for it :)
Vintage video of ID Software's office back in November of 1993. Contains footage of Doom played before it was complete and released to the public. Enjoy!
I came across that a wile back, :)
It's a good watch, You also get to see the Aladin game I had, Came on I think 6-8 floppys
But they play some console version of it I think, Was on a TV anyway, Believe it was John Romero you see playing it
You can also Download the Alpha Versions of Doom 1 and run them through DosBox
Haven't tried running the wads through DoomsDay
Also you can get a Beta Version 0.99 which I believe should suffer the Hang Romero talks about in the Doom postmortem Him and Tom did
You can also Hear Carmack mention the same crash in one of his talks cant mind which
I haven't left any of the versions running long enough to get the crash,
But the evil unleashed alpha has hung before, But im not sure if its because the timer tick wasn't for made or if it glitched with dosbox, Probably both lol
Heres a link to all the Alpha leaks from back in the day lol

I always get a bigger size whenever I order anything cashmere. I was cashmere by hand or light cycle in the washer so it does tend to shrink a bit, so I leave a little room for this happening. It is a beautiful rust/cinnamon color. The design is nicely different. The price for cashmere this year is quite elevated from other years but still a good value. I layer my wardrobe so this light weight sweater coat is perfect for me. This is one of my favorite colors and sweaters. Thanks O.co for carrying it. It came very fast-less than 3 days time! Can't beat that!
So glad I got this, I dont button it and it so pretty hangs nicely. I am shorter in stature and it does not hang too low.

Day Trip to Beaune?
- Porthos Feb 13, 2007 07:57 PM
Is there way to visit a decent chateau near Beaune or Dijon without having to rent a car? I'm planning on taking the TGV to either Beaune or Burgandy and was hoping to catch a bus of some sort that'll take me to a nearby chateau (kinda like what I was able to do in Florence). We will not have a car but recommendations for cheap bike rentals in either city would be greatly appreciated. Also any notable chateaus near either Beaune or Dijon within walking/biking distance would also be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Id think if you got down to Beaune from Dijon (I dont know the travel options) it would be en excellent place to base for some vineyard visits and that biking around that area would work just fine (there are many small roads and marked bike trails through the vineyard area. which is very close indeed to the town of Beaune. The town is itself very interesting with many tasting opportunities. Give yourself a day or two and you will be happy. Cant imagine a day trip working too well, though.
Here's a post about our quick visit (by car) to the area last June and a very nice restaurant we enjoyed just outside the walls in Beaune - we had a couple of quick tasting visits in Volnay and Meursault - just dont try vineyard visits at lunchtime - the tasting rooms will pretty much all be closed!
re: jen kalb
Thanks lots! I need to double check the TGV schedule. I thought I was able to get to Beaune through a Dijon transfer.
re: Porthos
You definitely will
it looks from my Michelin city map that there is a train station to the east of the town center. The center is walled, with a moat and street running round the outside and roads running out the gates like spokes. Le Benaton is on the Rue de la Fg. Bretonniere (N74) heading out toward Chalon. FYI we stayed at Auberge La Bretonniere a short walk down the same street. The town had a festive atmosphere (all that wine I guess) and it and the tourist crowd there looked prosperous! the Hotel Dieu is not to be missed.
ps. My daughter would kick me for not mentioning a "great food" of this region - the gougere.

re: ChefJune
TGV stops in Macon too, closer than Lyon and a jumping off point for the southern part of Burgundy (Beaujolais, Maconnais, Cote Chalonnaise).
The landscape in Burgundy is much different from Bordeaux where grand chateaux dot the horizon. Estate producers are much smaller around Beaune without imposing buildings or large cellars. But they are much more accessible for the general public and happy to pour their wine. A few of the big negociants have facilities in town that you can visit. Francois Gaunoux has a sales/tasting room in the middle of Beaune, http://www.gaunoux.com/ .
I've run into French tourists on the weekends in Beaune who bought TGV-rental packages out of Paris that includes a RT train ticket to Dijon and a car for the weekend for local use. You might check into those kinds of deals.
re: Melanie Wong
Thanks Melanie. Have you been to both Caves Patriarche or Marché aux Vins?
re: Porthos
Sorry, I have not, but I hope someone else can tell you about them.
Be sure to take a look at the L'Athenaeum de la Vigne et du Vin, a fabulous wine bookstore, on Place Carnot. One of the handiest purchases I made is the French-English pocket size wine dictionary.
The BIVB (Burgundy Wine Education Bureau) is in Beaune, and has day and half-day trips to places that would be difficult to get to without a car. Here is the web site for the education site in english. http://www.burgundy-wines.fr/index.ph...
Have a great time.
re: ChefJune
I would recommend that you stay in Beaune for more than a day! The city centre is quite charming and the vineyards in the surrounding areas are beautiful. The tourist office is in the city centre, not to far away from Hotel Dieu. They will probably be able to give you some guidance on bicycle rentals. There are also companies that run half to full day guided tours of the vineyards. But they can be pretty pricey.
My impression of Burgundy is that there are a lot of small wine producers, and so there are not really chateaus to speak of. Just many family-run operations in each town.
If you're looking for a good place for dinner, I would recommend La Gourmandin. We had a wonderful 4 course meal there, for a reasonable price!
re: mightycheesehead
I know, I wish we had more time but I only have a week with Paris as my homebase. Thanks for the La Gourmandin recommendation.
re: Porthos
The Burgundy Wine Education Bureau (BIVB) is located in Beaune, and they have reasonably priced programs you can sign up for, for a day, half day, or longer. They also do bus trips to some vineyards. I would look into those, if you are interested. They have programs in English as well as French.
I really enjoy Ma Cuisine, a small restaurant in an alleyway off the Place Carnot (I'm pretty sure that's the location. I don't have my notes with me) They have or had one Michelin star, but their prices are extremely reasonable, and the food is superb. It's owned by a couple named (appropriately) Escoffier, and the woman, Fabienne, is the chef. I think anyone in town will be able to direct you there!
If you know any wine retailers in your town, you may be able to get them to contact the distributor of either Louis Jadot or Joseph Drouhin, both of whom have houses in Beaune. Tours of those places are always by appointment, but they are definitely worth the effort you expend to get one arranged.
re: ChefJune
Yes, Ma Cuisine is just off the Place Carnot. Here's my long ago post on eating there my first time in Beaune.
Do take advantage of your time to check out Perardel. You can have a list of inventory emailed to you to reserve bottles before your arrival and have them delivered to Paris.
re: Melanie Wong
Thanks for that heads up, Melanie!
Porthos, if you take the train to Beaune you will probably transfer at Dijon. Then when you get to the station in Beaune, walk a block and a 1/2 towards the center of town and rent a bike from Florent at Florent at 03.80.22 0603:
Florent is accustom to arranging things via email. He will supply a map, draw a route to suit you and recommend where to taste and eat. You should decide if you want to ride 10KM north into Cote d' Or or 10KM south via vineyard roads into Cote d' Beaune. If its bad weather, skip the bike and visit the négociants in Beaune.
If you ride south, we like Le Cellier Volnaysien 03.80.21.61.04 in Volnay for lunch. If you want to ride about an hour south to Puligny Montrachet, have lunch at Olivier Leflaive, 38 euros with 8 wines. Its a trip with Pascal doing his song and dance about wine. When we were there last time a group stopped in clutching their R Parker bibles.
Also, stop by Alex Gambal's place in Beaune:
He is from DC and has been a négociant in Burgundy in 1997. He is located around the corner from Florent (close to the Beaune Post Office). He can tell you about the restaurant finds in the Beaune area.
