No yellow prong, our wii and wii U on HD and non HD TVs are black and white. Ugh!!!
If you have a Wii with the regular AVI cable that it came with , you are REALLY cheating yourself by NOT getting the Component cables, LOOK HOW INEXPENSIVE and the quality of your picture and graphics will be like NIGHT and DAY!!! GET YOURS!!!
After switching the WII to using this cable and setting the output resolution to 480p I could see a clear improvement in picture quality. I don't know why I didn't get this earlier.
It's a great cable...if you don't care whether your game is in color or not. Huge disappointment.
The cables provided a picture to my elaborate home theater system without any difficulties. The picture delivered through the cables was slightly better than the picture delivered via the video cable. I was disappointed that the delivered picture had a 480i resolution instead of a 480p resolution as advertised. This has nothing to do with the cables. The resolution is determined in the Wii console. The advertising though is misleading.

Republican Presidential candidate, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney declares victory in the Wisconsin presidential primary, Tuesday, April 3, 2012, at the Grain Exchange in Milwaukee. (AP Photo/M. Spencer Green)
LYNCHBURG, Va. (AP) --Mitt Romney is steering clear of the fight over gay marriage and talking about his commitments to his own family in a commencement address at a conservative Christian university.
The presumptive Republican nominee for president doesn't plan extensive remarks Saturday about his Mormon faith, a religion viewed with skepticism by some conservative Christians.
Instead, he will tell graduates at Liberty University that marriage is an institution that should be defended and will urge them to follow through on commitments to their own families.
Liberty University is the evangelical school in Lynchburg, Va., founded by the late Rev. Jerry Falwell. For Romney, his appearance presents an opportunity to address the kind of socially conservative audience that had been wary of him during the prolonged GOP primary fight.

I just want to thank you for helping me look years younger than I am. Many people are amazed when I tell them I am 63 years old. They think I am in my 40's.—Stephanie L.
Between your office and the surgical center it's like going to a 5-star hotel and spa. Thank you very much!—Tim G.
I didn't realize the results from fillers would be so great! Dr. Flaharty made me feel like I want to live again!
—Dottie T.
Honestly, it was scary; who do I trust with the only face I have? I interviewed 4 plastic surgeons. I was getting discouraged with their attitude, approach and staff. Then I saw Dr. Flaharty. He was down to earth, dressed neatly and in good taste. I was received in the office with respect and honesty. He and his staff listened to me and looked me straight in the eyes. They were interested in me, what I wanted and what I wished for. I was put at ease; this was the surgeon for me. The result was dramatic! Dr. Flaharty pushed the sun up into the sky for me one last time and for that I will always be grateful!
—Phyllis S.
I want to thank you and your staff for the excellent care. Everyone involved was highly professional and supportive throughout my surgery and post-operative period. Every step of the way, you and your staff told me what to expect, even though they knew I am a registered nurse. This meant a lot to me. I am so pleased with the results and would highly recommend you to all my friends. You and your staff have made my year special and refreshed! Thank you doesn't seem like it says enough about how wonderful you've made me feel about myself.
—Carol L.
My face lift looks so natural that nobody, not even my friends ever guessed! But I am constantly being complimented on how youthful or great I look. Dr. Flaharty did a fabulous job, ensuring that I would look natural, yet achieve the results I wanted. —Lydia T.
What are the latest trends in facial cosmetic surgery?
The biggest growth in the field of facial cosmetic surgery in recent years has been in the non-surgical office based procedures. This includes the non-invasive laser technologies to tighten and smooth the skin as well as remove unwanted sun spots and vessels from the face. In addition, the in office injectable procedures including Botox and the rapidly growing field of facial fillers. These non-surgical procedures can yield incredible rejuvenation of the face with little or no downtime making them very popular in todays challenging economy.
How does Botox work?
Botulinum toxin is an injectable agent that temporarily weakens muscles and thereby softens the line and creases created by those muscles. Botox is often used to treat the frown lines between the eyebrows, horizontal forehead lines, and Crow's feet around the eyes but can also be used in other areas of the face to lift tissue and smooth unwanted lines and creases.
How do facial fillers work?
Facial fillers are injectable agents that plump up tissues by replacing volume that we loose as we age. They can fill lines, creases, folds, and hollows as well as add volume to sunken, deflated areas of the face, lifting these tissues. Fillers can be used for frown lines, dark under eye circles, lifting the eyebrows or cheeks, filling in folds and creases around the mouth, and filling the temples.
What is a "Liquid Facelift"?
A liquid facelift is the combined use of Botox and Facial Fillers to rejuvenate the face. With a quick in office procedure we can remove frown lines, forehead creases, Crow's feet as well as remove dark under eye circles, lift the cheeks, lift the eyebrows, fill in lines and creases around the mouth, improve the jaw line and temples and even rejuvenate the lips and all with little or no downtime.
Tell us about eyelid surgery?
Eyelid surgery is the most commonly performed facial surgery annually. The delicate tissues of the eyelids are often the first to show signs of aging. The eyelid skin is very thin and with blinking 20 times per minute the tissues often stretch and wrinkle faster than the other tissues of the face. This often shows up as loose skin and wrinkles around the eyes, which worsen with age. Fortunately eyelid surgery is a fast and effective procedure that can remove excess skin, reshape the fatty tissues, and eliminate wrinkles dramatically improving the appearance of the eyes. Upper eyelid surgery is sometimes covered by insurance.
How have Eyebrow/Forehead lifts changed in recent years?
Most brow or forehead lifts are now performed using a small incision, endoscopic approach. This has been a dramatic improvement in brow lifting making this procedure faster, more accurate, and with much less downtime. Through a few small incisions hidden in the hair the entire forehead and eyebrows can be released and lifted rejuvenating the entire upper half of the face with virtually no visible signs of surgery.
What is "Harmonious Facial Rejuvenation"?
Harmonious Facial Rejuvenation is the comprehensive rejuvenation of the entire face in a single procedure. This is an important concept because addressing the entire face in a single procedure results in a more complete and natural rejuvenation of the face. It also offers the advantage of a single procedure with one recovery period compared to a staged, multi-procedure approach.
What is the best type of Facelift?
There are a number of different facelift procedures and each has its advantages and disadvantages. Ideally a procedure should be designed to best fit the patient's specific needs after a thorough understanding of the patients anatomy and the desired outcome of the surgical procedure.
Are neck lift procedure performed with facelifts?
In most cases neck lifts are performed with face lifts to give the best results in surgical rejuvenation of the face. Laxity of the lower face and neck usually occur at the same rate and rejuvenation of these areas is generally performed together to achieve optimal results.
Do you perform liposuction of the face?
Liposuction of the face and neck is an important adjunctive procedure to enhance the surgical result. By sculpting out the excessive fat you can achieve a more defined jawline and neckline improving the final surgical outcome.
When are chin implants used in facial rejuvenation?
When do you use a chin implant in facial surgery?
Chin implants are used in facial rejuvenation when genetics or aging leads to an anatomically weak (recessed) chin. These soft and natural implants can strengthen the jawline, improve chin projection, improve facial balance, and even improve neck contour. They are placed through small incisions hidden under the chin and provide a permanent and natural enhancement.
What is a photofacial?
A photofacial is a non-surgical, office based procedure that uses light energy to remove unwanted brown spots and vessels from the skin. This popular procedure is completely non-invasive and yield wonderful rejuvenation of sun damaged skin.
Tell us about the non-ablative fractional laser?
The non-ablative fractional laser is a fantastic new office based procedure that tightens and smoothes the skin reducing lines and creases. It is also very effective in reducing acne scars and stretch marks. As a non-invasive laser the best results are achieved with a series of 4 – 6 treatments. There are no injections and no downtime. Improvements in skin texture and tone can be seen for 6 months after the last treatment.
Tell us about laser hair removal?
Laser hair removal is a popular office based procedure that allows the permanent reduction of unwanted hair from any part of the body. Face, back, arms, legs, and bikini area are all popular treatment areas. Best results are achieved with darker and hair and requires a series of 4 – 6 treatments. Like the other office based laser treatments there is no downtime with laser hair removal.
What is fat transfer?
Fat transfer is a surgical technique where ones own fat cells are harvested from areas where it isn't wanted and transferred into the face to plump the tissues providing a youthful fullness to the face and reducing hollows, folds, and creases.
Although this is a surgical procedure, fat transfer uses your own living fat cells to replace the cells lost through natural aging of the face. This is a great procedure to combine with face and neck lifting to achieve a three dimensional rejuvenation of the face.

Andes — The Peanuts Gang, characters from Charles Schulz's beloved comic strip, will invade the Andes Central School (ACS) stage on Friday and Saturday nights, May 21 and 22. ACS students will perform "You're A Good Man Charlie Brown," a musical production based on Schulz's famous comic strip. Show times both evenings are scheduled for 7 p.m.

These days when you see a teenager, he or she is likely to be utilizing some sort of electronic device. iPod earbuds in the ears, thumbs typing away madly at a cell phone or PDA keys, face illuminated by the screen of a laptop computer. Such is the culture of the generation.
A 20-year-old Andes man was found Friday of two felony charges stemming from his arrest for e-mailing a sexual image of an underage female. Clint Peterson was charged with promoting a sexual performance by a child under age 17 (a class D felony) and possessing a sexual performance by a child under age 16 (a class E felony). The guilty verdicts were rendered at a jury trial in Delaware County Court in Delhi last Friday.

The Andes softball team that traveled to Roxbury on Thursday was a very different team than the one that took the diamond against the visiting Margaretville Blue Devils just a day earlier.
When the host Mountaineers faced the visiting Blue Devils on Wednesday afternoon, early innings indicated that it would be a tight game. However, a tough sixth inning put Andes in a three-run hole, and an eight-run seventh inning by the Blue Devils all but put it out of reach for the Mountaineers.
Roxbury — Winners of in-school Cultural Arts Spelling Bees will compete in the Second Annual Delaware and Otsego counties Regional Bee at The Roxbury Arts Center on Saturday, May 8 at 10 a.m. Admission is free to the general public. Light refreshments will be served.
Andes — Opening its sixth season on Main Street, Chace-Randall Gallery presents new works by Jenny Nelson. The show will hang from May 7 to June 20. A reception for the artist will be held on Saturday, May 8 from 5 to 7 p.m. Working in oil on canvas and linen, Nelson's abstract renderings of line and light are widely admired and collected–from the Catskill Mountain Region to Atlanta, Ga., where she exhibits extensively.
Andes — The Tremperskill Boys will bring their high-energy, fiddle-driven music with them when they open the season at the Pleasant Valley Meeting House on Saturday, May 8 at 7 p.m.
This skilled band of musicians is intent on pleasing with less well-known but musically well crafted Irish, Scottish and Appalachian tunes brought to life with the accordion, claw hammered banjo, flute and fiddles.

The Roxbury Rockets came out firing on all cylinders in last Thursday's match-up against the host Wildcats of Hunter-Tannersville, despite less-than-ideal weather conditions.
"It was a wind dome," said Roxbury Head Coach Jane Ware. "You could throw a ball from first base to home plate on that field and it would move over six feet."
The gusts didn't ruffle the feathers of Roxbury pitcher Heather Davie, however, who led off the game with a home run.
The Delaware County Public Health Nursing Service will offer two free area rabies vaccination clinics for dogs and cats in May. The first will be held on Friday, May 7 from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Andes fire station pavilion.

The Margaretville Central School Board of Education voted four to one Monday night at its monthly board meeting to reject Andes Central School's request for an athletic merger for the coming academic year.
Board president Barbara Funck represented the lone yea vote, while board members Robbie Martin, Randy Moore, Joe Moskowitz and Al Tanzer voted against the measure, which would have allowed male Andes student-athletes to compete on Margaretville Central School athletic teams.

Millions of Spiders Seen In Mass Dispersal Event In Nova Scotia 79
Posted by samzenpus
from the arachnophobia dept.
from the arachnophobia dept.
Freshly Exhumed writes A bizarre and oddly beautiful display of spider webs have been woven across a large field along a walking trail in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada. "Well it's acres and acres; it's a sea of web," said Allen McCormick. Prof. Rob Bennett, an expert on spiders who works at the Royal British Columbia Museum in Victoria, BC, Canada, said tiny, sheet-web weaver spiders known as Erigoninae linyphiidae most likely left the webs. Bennett said the spiders cast a web net to catch the wind and float away in a process known as ballooning. The webs in the field are the spiders' drag lines, left behind as they climb to the top of long grass to be whisked away by the wind. Bennett said it's a mystery why these spiders take off en masse.

Moscow: Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov has said the country knows everything about the US missile shield`s composition in Europe.
"We have technical data about the number of interceptors, the set of launch-tracking tools and warning radars, the new platforms such as ground-based launchers and additional cruisers and destroyers," Xinhua quoted the minister as saying Friday.
There is still time for Russia and the US to reach an agreement over the missile defence system. But a deadline is fast approaching, he said.
Such an agreement should be reached before Washington begins the third phase of the missile shield deployment, the minister added.
Moscow has always opposed the deployment of U.S.-led European missile defence facilities near its borders and has called for legally binding guarantees from the US and NATO that the missile shield will not target Russia.
On Friday, Ryabkov reiterated Moscow`s insistence on a legally binding pledge that the system would not target Russia.

Hold up, I thought most of this 'savings' was actually debt reduction rather than new bank deposits or stock purchases? Sounds to me like it will prompt more risk reduction and deleveraging, rather than new investment..

Hold up, I thought most of this 'savings' was actually debt reduction rather than new bank deposits or stock purchases? Sounds to me like it will prompt more risk reduction and deleveraging, rather than new investment..
"WE'RE all familiar with the paradox of thrift. Consumers seek to increase their savings and reduce spending. The reduction in spending curtails economic activity, reducing incomes and ultimately leaving consumers with reduced savings."
Keynesian nonsense.
In the Keynesian universe saving is a bad thing while capital formation is assigned to the credit ex-nihilo manipulation by the central bank. But just as this credit is illusory, the growth is too. Of course, there are cartelized interests that benefit from this aspect of crony capitalism.
On the contrary, for healthy growth thrift is the precondition for saving which provides the capital which is invested into improving the factors of production which then leads to a higher standard of living.
Page 48 of the paper shows a huge spike in corporate savings during the earlier part of this decade. I suspect a lot of that was firms buying the new-fangled financial instruments like derivatives and collateralized debt obligations. Is that correct?
The economy was supposedly growing strongly then (the Bush Boom!) - why were corporations saving so much and investing so little?
That paper seems to contain wisdom based on logic and evidence. I expect it will be largely ignored by academic economists.
So, let me see if I've got this right. You're saying that we actually need capital for capitalism to function?
I'm a bit short on astonishment at this revelation...
Keynes wrote about the Liquidity Preference that takes hold when economic growth takes a nosedive and causes consumers and businesses to start hoarding cash. Perhaps the blogger can provide more data about the levels at which corporations have been investing over the last few years, compared to now. It would also be interesting to see what the Cost of Capital has done lately. Is there not some objective way to more directly measure the Demand for Capital?
Of course over the long term the US consumer has to become more frugal - the negative savings rate we saw a few years ago doesn't seem rational. And of course US companies should export more and import less - but how to we encourage that?
Ah, here we go: The Golden Rule SteadyState in the Solow model.
I suppose that's why they call it a paradox. But I remember a chart from intermediate macro which found an optimum level of savings, consumption and investment to promote ongoing growth. If anyone can remember which chart I'm talking about, that might be an interesting way to look at this. As I recall, there were two lines, something like a parabola and, of course, a hyperbole. I think it was called "the golden" something or other.
The answer is that both need to happen. For consumers to consume more and invest, costs of current expenditures needs to come down. Interest on existing debt needs to fall and so do no discretionary expense prices. That means reducing regulation and moving forward on cheaper energy production and using the cheap money the government is borrowing to pay down existing debt instead of consuming it (and keeping interest rates up).
My guess is that it's a lack of demand. After a good scare, caution prevails.

Speaking at a meeting on Friday, the chairman said that caution was prudent, and that the agency needs to "make sure that we understand what is going on here."

This hostel didnt have much of an atmosphere when we stayed. The receptionist who was also a traveler did not know about our reservation, but let us check-in early. Staff were very cold and uninviting, they only spoke to you when you asked a question and made it seem like a huge inconvenience that you were asking them something. Breakfast is not served on Sundays, its their "rest day"! So if you only book on a Saturday night, breakfast is not included like it says on the website. Dont stay here.

I did not have the best of stays at Andescamp. It's located away from the center compared to most other hostels, the hostel was almost empty, and the staff did not appear to be very enthusiastic about their job. On one occation there was a miscommunication between the hostel and the travel agency about pick-up-point resulting in the tour being delayed one hour for everybody, including people from other hostels. Also they were unable to call a taxi for me. Pancake breakfast is amazing though!

Great hostel with a great staff. Great breakfast too. Unfortunately, I left after staying just one night because the wifi was not fast enough for my needs (I work whilst on vacation), but the staff helped me find a new place and were very good natured about my leaving. This shows just how nice of a place this is. About a 10 minute walk to the city centre.

Andescamp is BAD. I felt like they were always trying to rip me off. Everything, from TP to a shower after check out is an extra expense. The staff is awful, except for Yumar. I was very sick and had to cancel one of my outings resulting in a lack of compassion, BLATANT LYING to us by staff, and BAD feelings. I cannot recommend. They tried to charge us for THEIR room mistake just bc they would need to change the sheets. Lazy and bad service just bc they are "travellers". TERRIBLE PLACE

Wes Welker on contract talks: It's "out of my mind"
Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker says he is not going to worry about his contract status. He is scheduled to make $9.5 million this season under his franchise tender. (Winslow Townson/Getty Images)
The New England Patriots have been known to play hardball when it comes to negotiating contracts, so their All-Pro receiver Wes Welker says he is done thinking about it and says there are no hard feelings between him and the team. Welker has said he wants a long-term deal with the team.
"The contract, and everything else, is out of my mind," Welker said to ESPN.com at training camp practice. "Everyone tried. I tried, they tried, and it just didn't work out. It's in the past, and we've moved on to this season, which we expect to be a good one."
Welker will play the 2012 season making $9.5 million, which is the franchise tender he signed during the offseason. If Welker is franchised by the Patriots again next season, he will make $11.4 million.
"You got to prove it every year. There is no year where you don't need to prove it," Welker said when asked if he had anything to prove this year.

Helping Bono on his way to recover he seems to have a great deal of support from his friends in high places.
U2's front man his wife of nearly 29 years, Ali, were snapped lounging on Oracle owner, Larry Ellison's yacht "The Rising Sun" with Roman Abramovich. "The Rising Sun" is the largest privately owned yacht in the world.
This spotting of Bono comes just weeks after he hung with his friend Lance Armstrong at his villa in the South of France. It must be nice to be in with such circle of friends.
The Chelsea football club owner, Roman Abramovich, met the couple of the massive yacht in the Mediterranean sea just off the French coast.
Bono has been staying at his own holiday home in the South of France. His hope is to be healthy enough to return to performing this fall for the next leg of his "360 Tour".
If these are the people he calls friends imagine who his doctors are!

The Maricopa County Air Quality Department is enforcing mandatory No Burn Day restrictions Saturday and Sunday due to a high pollution advisory. The air quality forecast suggests stagnant air, low wind and winter inversions will trap fine particulate pollution close to the ground, according to a news release.
No Burn Day regulations state residents and businesses must refrain from burning wood in fireplaces, wood stoves or outdoor fire pits during the restriction period. This includes individuals and businesses that have burn permits for open burning. Grilling activities and gas powered fireplace activity is allowed on a No Burn Day.

COLLIER COUNTY, Fla. - Thursday the Collier County Sheriff's Office announced it's launching a new program that pairs puppies with inmates.
The goal of the program is to make the dogs disciplined, loving, faithful family pets and increase their chances of landing in a forever home.
At the same time it teaches inmates valuable life lessons and job skills in areas of dog training and dog grooming that they will be able to use after they complete their sentences.
Chance is an 18 week old golden retriever and one of four dogs getting 24/7 training as part of the program.
Michael Simonik, Executive Director of the Humane Society of Naples says, "The dogs are really responding to this one on one program that they're getting because at the shelter they're just one of many volunteers that work with them."
The puppies selected came from troubled homes, but are expected to leave the jail, disciplined and well trained family pets.
"These puppies will be the envy of the neighborhood for any lucky owner," says Jeannie Bates, Director of Behavior for the SW Florida Professional Dog Trainers Alliance.
The program not only provides a second chance for the shelter dogs once they leave the jail, but it also teaches these inmates a lot about life.
"They come in and normally they have low self esteem. They don't care about their self or anybody else and then they take this puppy and they start teaching it leadership and they start teaching it how to do things and get used to dealing with disappointments and how they can work through it," says Jail Captain Beth Richards.
The puppies are each paired with two female inmates. They stay in the cell with the new trainers around the clock. Bates has been working directly with the inmates and the puppies since October. She says she can already see the program is working.
The CCSO is working in conjunction with the Humane Society of Naples and its affiliate Southwest Florida Professional Dog Trainers Alliance.
"The girls are more receptive to the love the puppies," says Bates.
The program has been successfully working in Lee County for several years. Once the dogs complete their training inside the jail they will be returned to the Humane Society of Naples. That is when families will be able to adopt them.

NEW YORK — Video shows a New York City fire truck arriving to respond to a transformer explosion in Manhattan, only to find an NYPD cruiser already there.
Firefighters and police officers can be heard asking, "Whose car is that?"
The vehicle reportedly made access to a nearby fire hydrant difficult. In the end, firefighters were able to work their way around the vehicle.

The Empress of Mars is not a person it's a bar- the only place to buy alcohol on Mars. This book is less of a space opera and more of a western-small-town-takes-on-the-evil-railroad-corporation book in space. The characters are all unique (scientists turned bartenders, Italian playboys with a love of spaghetti westerns, ice truckers), and the customs the locals all stranded on Mars have come up with are really... Martian. All this, and an evil corporation you love to hate!

Some changes in limo behavior emerge but illegal parking and idling violations continue
A new survey of illegal parking and idling in the vicinity of Barclays Center during the first Nets/Bulls play-off game uncovered some changes to black limo behavior from the last survey. Overall the survey, which covered a smaller geographic area than the last, demonstrated illegal parking and idling conditions continue.
The survey is easy to execute by the volunteers because the locations for illegal parking are so predictable. There were very few unuccuppied hydrants in the area during the survey.
Notably not a single black limo was parked in the official location designated by the Department of Transportation for TLC parking on the south side of Atlantic Avenue from 6th Avenue to Carlton Avenue. A NYPD tow truck was stationed there to clear it of private cars, but it had little motivation to work.

The Pad is used regularly regardless of the type of event.

Saracco Moscato d'Asti is as sweet and seductive as the hills where it is born and grows; as vibrant and sharp as the mountains that surround and protect the land on the horizon; refreshing and effervescent, like the wind rushing down from the Alps towards our hills. Served cold with its delicate and persistent bubbles, it is like a refreshing shower in summer.
Grapes: Moscato bianco Canelli 100%
Vineyards: Various around the village of Castiglione Tinella
Soil: Calcareous limestone with sandy veins
Total production: 650.000 bottles
Alcohol: 5.0%
The Saracco Moscato d'Asti 2011 received 90 points from The Wine Advocate: "Saracco's Moscato d'Asti 2011 wraps around the palate with serious depth and richness. Green apples, pears and white flowers flow through to the expressive, nuanced finish. Like most wines of the vintage, the 2011 is richer than normal, but there is no shortage of personality or pure class here."
For the producer Saracco wine is a metaphor for life. Nature, with its soils, sun, heat, water offers the winery in Castiglione Tinella a unique opportunity: Moscato. In a metaphore for life which repeats itself every year, Saracco give birth to Moscato and through Moscato every year they live the expectations, fatigue, hope, pains and pleasure that life offers to all of us. That is why they feel more blessed than skilled, more cultivators than technicians, more "of the land" than "of the market". It must be clear, they are proud that so many people from all over the world tell the Saracco Moscato d'Asti wines are excellent. Their pride stems from being the link between the land that we walk on and the wine that this same land gives us. Perhaps this is not a philosophy, it is who they are, it is what this land offers to us.
Moscato d'Asti is one of the few so-called aromatic wines, because the aromas and perfumes that the grapes have are similar to those we find in the wine. Furthermore, moscato d'Asti has its cradle in the southern part of Piedmont, the only area where the moscato d'Asti vine grows, right where Saracco's property lies.
All this helps explain Moscato Saracco's uniqueness: the winemakers ability to trap all the aromas and perfumes of the grape into the bottle. Ultimately, this is the challenge of any moscato maker; to this challenge they come armed with our own philosophy. The Saracco family have been wine makers for four generations, always embracing new technologies as they arise. They have doubled production over the last years while safeguarding quality throughout the production process, from grape to glass. They have focused on one wine, the one that is naturally suited to our unique terroir, while most were trying to please the market with different varieties.
The result is a wine that becomes an integral part of the land the landscape. That is why Saracco Moscato d'Asti is as sweet and seductive as the hills where it is born and grows; as vibrant and sharp as the mountains that surround and protect the land on the horizon; refreshing and effervescent, like the wind rushing down from the Alps towards our hills. Served cold with its delicate and persistent bubbles, it is like a refreshing shower in summer.
Collection and storage
We gently press the grapes immediately after harvesting. We only take the outer part of the grape, the one with all the aromas and perfumes of moscato. Then we collect the juice in stainless steel tanks and maintain it at a temperature of -3 ° C.. By doing this we prevent the must from fermenting. Each tank corresponds to a day of harvesting and a specific part of our properties, each one with its own unique characteristics. The must remains in steel tanks at controlled temperature. While the market places orders, we start the process of fermentation, so that the wine hits the market as fresh as possible.
The juice from various tanks is first blended thoroughly and after that moved to autoclaves used to start fermentation. Unlike many wines, such as the single vineyard ones, moscato d'Asti aims at the best average quality. Here consistency across vineyards is the goal. Moscato d'Asti is therefore a result of blending together musts. This implies blending something that hasn't begun the entire process of fermentation. This is a lot more difficult than blending wines, where you mix something that has already finished its process. The fermentation is activated by raising the temperature and allowing the natural yeasts to begin the transformation of sugar into alcohol. When the alcohol content reaches 5.5% and we achieve a perfect balance between acidity, sugars and alcohol, we lower the temperature in the autoclave and the fermentation stops. During fermentation, part of the carbon dioxide that is formed is freed in the air and part dissolves into the wine to create the lightly sparkling style. If we let the fermentation continue until the transformation of all the sugars into alcohol we would make a wine having an alcohol content of 14%.
Microfiltration and bottling
Subsequently, the wine is filtered via microfiltration to give it highest purity and transparency, then it is bottled. The pressure in the autoclave is about 2 atm, and goes down to about 1.5 atm after bottling. The sugar content in the bottle is about 140 g / L. In conclusion, the entire process of fermentation of Moscato d'Asti combines technology (steel tanks, sterilization, cold maceration) and extreme care in transferring aromas and perfumes from our grapes to the palate of our customers.

PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) - It was a cheese road block in northwest Florida.
A semi trailer carrying more than 39,000 pounds of shredded 5-blend cheese caught fire Thursday afternoon. Several lanes of traffic on Interstate 10 were blocked. The accident happened in Escambia County, one mile east of the Florida state line.
The road block lasted about five hours, and the cheese has since been cleaned up.
Florida Highway Patrol Trooper Josh Tucker says the brakes on the truck caught fire, igniting the entire vehicle.
The driver of the truck was identified as 53-year-old Singh Jaspal of Clovis, Calif. He was not injured in the fire.
No charges have been filed.

Recos for bachelorette - Adelaide and Spadina area
- p
- pâté chinois Apr 17, 2013 06:48 PM
I'm organizing a bachelorette and need a resto for about 10 ladies with the following restrictions: gluten-free/vegetarian (a couple people in the group) and peanut allergy. We're going out for cocktails first and then want to have dinner. Currently looking into Sultan's Tent and Hey Lucy but I'm not familiar with that area so looking forward to suggestions! Thanks in advance
re: c_snapper
It is a full vegetarian/vegan menu so unless everyone will be ok with veg options it might not fit the bill. I went twice with a vegan friend when it was Fressen and it was terrible so I'm not sure the makeover is going to help much with the food given it is the same owner.
Luma might work for you. They have a full menu online. I would avoid Hey Lucy or the Sultan's tent if you're at all really food people. Neither will leave good impressions IMO.
re: JennaBean
I know they use peanut oil for frying their frites, but I'd think it would be quite possible to avoid peanut oil in non-fried food at LS? I didn't think they used peanut oil outside the frites. Might be worth checking with the kitchen.
I agree, the veg options are limited at Le Select, as they are at most other restaurants, but there are a few veg mains (currently asparagus risotto and a mushroom with polenta, which might work for gluten-free) , as well as quite a few salads at Le Select. http://www.leselect.com/menus/view_me...
Thanks for the suggestions and comments! Grassland is closed on Tuesdays, which is the evening we're doing the bachelorette, so I rule it out. The bride is gf/vegetarian so it is a must that she have good options. Le Select I am ruling out because of the risk of peanut contamination (I don't want to endanger the maid of honor's life!). I will check Luma and see if they have options that meet our requirements. I must say I find a lot of pales in that area are for die-hard carnivores (which is great but not what we need this time around).
Lee (King/Portland) caters very well to allergies/vegetarians. I have dined there with a gluten-free; it definitely exceeded his expectation. You should definitely let them know about the peanut allergy ahead of time.
Politica (Strachan/Adelaide) is intimate and charming. They have gluten-freen pasta/pizza options, as well as a couple of vegetarian dishes. I had sampled their egg parm and loved it. The owners are super nice. If you let them know about the special occasion, they will make it extra special.
Oh and I agree with everybody else - avoid Hey Lucyand Sultan's!

Pros: Works, easy to use and takes only a couple minutes to get an article set up.
CONS: None that I can see other than it would be cool to be able to select multiple articles to be placed.
All in all it works great and good job. Thank you for creating this extensions it's already proven useful in more than one instance. Keep up the good work. :)
PROS: Works well, is being updated and features are being added to it progressively. Author support - 2 thumbs up.
CONS: It's not complete and I can't beta the next version until it is released! lol
At any rate thank you for this nice extension and I encourage others to try it if you're looking for some sort of 'Wall' or Notice Board for Community Builder.
CONS: the only cons I see really is that there is no percentage bar or readout to indicate how much file upload is left. There is only a little animated box to show this. One other little thing I noticed was the pause button on the side of audio file name titles doesn't actually pause audio files or show a pause / play icon when they are paused, playing or stopped.
All in all though this plugin is pretty nice so don't let any thing here influence you into not using it. It is worthy of use. If the above could be added and perhaps even album covers to go with audio files, that would top this little gem off.
Thank you for your efforts gone into this plugin. It is great to see more non-commercial extensions become available.
PROS: great idea for sharing your SoundCloud info.
CONS: it doesn't work fully anymore.
Hello and thank you for your review. As you can see on the demo page, the plugin now loads the HTML5 Soundcloud player. It has the same functionalities as it always had and works the same. If it doesn't work on your side it could be because of a server restriction. To make sure you don't miss anything before leaving a not so positive review, we encourage you to ask in our support forum.
PROS: It works good, has lots of share choices and is one of very few free available extensions for CB here on JED. That alone is a big plus.
CONS: only one (that I have found) is when the modal comes up it doesn't fade the background page and you have to also click twice on the X in the upper right corner to close the modal.
This is a good module though none the less. The above improvement options however would make this component exceptional and stand out even more so than it already does from most others.
Today, Tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tomorrow, Wednesday, Thursday ...
Also, when setting the primary map location with the exact co-ordinates, the weather doesn't show for that day and only shows tomorrow and beyond weather conditions. If you enter your location into the list it shows Today's weather and then Tomorrow's, but if you don't you only get the weather for Tomorrow and beyond.
Also, when you set a city location it does not allow you to select the state or province thus forcing the use of city and country. I believe this leads to the 'Tomorrow' first in the list display without showing 'Today' first.
If this extension didn't do this it would probably be among the better ones out there, but these things really need to be fixed.
We were hoping for Virtualmin support, but apparently we were the only first ones to ask them about support for it. If anyone else is interested in Virtualmin support please contact the developer to show them your interest in Virtualmin support! If we show enough interest they may support it. When they can support it I'll be buying this for sure. ;)
PROS: Very simple to install and check site security status of installed components, there are regular updates, support is great and the developer takes security seriously.
CONS: The only con is this component doesn't scan plugins and modules.
All in all this is a great component and I would especially recommend this to novice webmasters as well as advanced Joomla webmasters. It is simple, effective and to the point.
Thank you for your review, B0RG!!
I take note of your suggestions for future developments.
CONS: Image descriptions don't show up fully below images and when images are clicked on, you still can't see the full description because there is no image descriptions when the picture is brought into full view.
All in all this extension is fantastic, but only lacks one feature - description controls and placement.
Hi, displaying of description depends on used detail window method (standard popup, modal box, modal box image only, highslide js, highslide js image only, shadowbox, jak lightbox, slimbox, boxplus, boxplus image only, etc.)
By image methods - this can be customized in the specific javascript library
By iframe methods - it can be easily set in template of detail window:
components/com_phocagallery/views/detail/tmpl/default.php or can be overwritten with help of MVC in template. Or can be set in parameters (description can be displayed below image or over the image in opacity box)
http://www.phoca.cz/documents/396-phoca-extensions-general-advices (8) - difference between image and iframe method
http://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-gallery-component/494-options-parameters - setting parameters to display/hide or set specific position of description
