Steroids AgainThursday, April 1st, 2004
- House panel approves bill to limit sales of steroid precursors
The bill also would double the penalties for manufacturing or distributing anabolic steroids at or near a sports facility, prompting the only real debate at Wednesday's meeting.
The bill is H.R. 3866.
The rational behind extra penalties for selling drugs near a school is that children are innocent, unable to make decisions regarding their health and safety on their own, and need protection. None of those apply to adults at the local gym.
Prior to the Steroid Control Act of 1990, you could find a doctor specializing in sports medicine who would prescribe reasonable doses of anabolic steroids, monitoring your blood and liver all through the process. The Steroid Control Act of 1990 made anabolic steroids C-III controlled substance (possession without a script from a US doctor is a felony), and made it illegal for a doctor to prescribe them for performance enhancement. Fourteen years later, anabolic steroids are more popular than ever. But you can't go to a doctor for advice. Instead you go to your local drug dealers and hope that what he gives you is not fake, diluted, contaminated, or counterfeit.
Then because of a loophole in the Hatch Supplement Act, steroid precursors (prohormones) were discovered and became available at every local health food store. They're not as good as anabolic steroids. Some may be harsher on your liver than injectables, but at least you know what you're getting. Now the US government wants to outlaw prohormones and increase the penalties for selling steroids near a gym.
Adolescents under the age of 21 should not use anabolic steroids or prohormones. They're not done growing. Limiting the sales of prohormones to adults is a reasonable measure to take. But that would just force adolescents to buy real steroids off the black market.
The only way to prevent children from buying steroids is to dry up the black market. The only real way to do that is to allow doctors to prescribe steroids for cosmetic or muscle enhancing purposes. I, as an adult, have the right to change my appearance as many times as I wish through surgery. Why not through hormones?

Bulls routed by Hawks, suffer worst loss on heels of best win
BY JOE COWLEY email@example.com December 22, 2012 10:44PM
Louis Williams throws down a slam against Kirk Hinrich as the Bulls lay an egg on the road. | Todd Kirkland~AP
Updated: January 24, 2013 6:48AM
ATLANTA — It usually comes as a simple gesture from Tom Thibodeau.
A head nod and a shout. Obviously, loud enough that it can be heard from way down on the bench.
It's Vlad-Rad Time.
The problem is, when Vladimir Radmanovic gets playing time, it means something went really well for the Bulls or terribly wrong.
It was the latter Saturday night. One day after what was arguably the Bulls' most impressive victory of the season against the New York Knicks, Thibodeau watched his team play its worst game in a 92-75 loss to the Atlanta Hawks.
"If you're tired, look at Atlanta. They played [Friday night], too,'' Thibodeau said when asked about the letdown factor. "It's a will game.''
The Bulls (15-11) didn't seem to be able to stand toe-to-toe in the battle.
"It was a letdown because we lost,'' Joakim Noah said. "We got our [bleeps] kicked. Tough loss. The highs and lows in this thing are unbelievable, man. One night you feel great because you won a big game, and then the next night you come out with the wrong mind-set and you lose the game. Tough, but we just got to move on and be ready for Christmas.''
They definitely didn't look like a team that was ready for Saturday.
Even while jumping out to a 21-17 first-quarter lead and holding the Hawks (16-9) to 36 percent shooting, the Bulls seemed to lack energy, especially for a team that limped in from New York. Kirk Hinrich was battling soreness in his left knee, and Luol Deng — fresh off an injured left shoulder suffered against the Knicks — admittedly didn't have his usual aggressiveness.
"It's OK. I played, so that's all that matters,'' Deng said of the injury. "I was worried about it, even to start the game, and it took a little bit of my aggressiveness away, even with rebounding. I was a little shy of contact, but you know, it's not worse than it was before.''
When asked about the exact nature of his injury, Deng didn't have any answers. It happened when the Knicks' Jason Kidd tried to steal the ball and pulled down on Deng's arm.
"I'm not even trying to hide anything. I can't explain what it is,'' Deng said. "It's more than a stinger, it's a sprained something, somehow, but I don't know exactly.''
Deng shot 5-for-14 in scoring 11 points, pulled down only two rebounds and played just under 34 minutes, which spoke volumes that he wasn't physically right.
The Hawks were led by Al Horford's 20 points, and all five starters scored in double figures.
"Our energy was bad, I feel like we settled for too many shots early in the clock,'' Noah said. "Sometimes when you're tired, you just got to move the ball. We just let them play to their strengths, as well.''
Thibodeau was a bit more detailed about the mishaps.
"Guys got going, and once they get going, they're hard to shut off,'' Thibodeau said. "We got beat in every facet.''
A letdown game? Likely. Not that Radmanovic was complaining.

I hope you have better weather for your trip!! Actually, I'm sure you will. It might even bee too hot!
Thanks for commenting and letting me know you're there!
I don't know if they do it every day or not, but it looked like she had about 20 swords to hand out first thing in the morning. It was such a magical moment (it would have been even better if Sawyer wasn't crying).
I was actually sleeping last night! I can't stay up until 1:30am every night like my sister does! I only do that when I've got too much on my mind to sleep!

I don't like the Pooh ride either.
There, I said it!
I hate that there are so many "non-themed" spaces. I don't want to think I'm on a ride, I want to think I'm in the 100Acre Woods! I will never for the life of me understand why there is ALWAYS such a long line for that ride at Disney World!
I do however, LOVE the Peter Pan ride,which I rode a total of ZERO times on this last trip.
Somehow though, I think we ended up riding Pooh at least three!

I thought this would be a good place to add some of my photopass pictures!
I warned you that they were dorky! I always feel SO stupid when they tell me to do this pose.
This was my favorite one. Tessa said she didn't see Tinkerbell in her hand. We told her that she flew away so fast, that only the camera could see her.
I love this with the decoration! I believe this is where Tessa was telling her "I've been waiting 5 years to meet you!"
The famous kiss!!

I love the photopass pictures. Hmm, I think I saw those somewhere before. BTW, I ordered it.
I don't like doing the dorky poses either!

I love the pooh ride at Disneyland! The line is all outside and feels very 100 acre-woodsy.
Cute photopass photos Heather! I really love the one of Belle kissing Sawyer! His little face is so cute!
Here is the info on the Mermaid ride from the Feb. 19 Passporter newsletter: (an article by Cheryl Pendry)
Some of the most radical changes will be made to Paradise Pier and the second phase of those changes have already begun, with the closure of Golden Dreams. Previously home to a stirring film history of California, this is now making way for a new Little Mermaid dark ride, due to open in 2011. I can't wait to see this, as the concept drawings looked quite something.
I want to go to Disneyland just to see the plans for the California Adventure update! The last time I was there, there was A LINE just to see the PLANS!

Let's Shoot Grandma! MUWHAHAHAHA!!
When we stepped outside of Crystal Palace, I instantly noticed that it had gotten warmer. It certainly wasn't WARM, but it was warm-ER.
I noticed that Sawyer's diaper was sagging. We were right next to the baby center, or whatever it's called. I had never been in there, so I thought this was a much better option than doing the "amazing standing diaper change" that we had done up to this point. You see, there is generally only 1 or 2 changing tables in the Disney bathrooms. There is always a baby on the table and a line of 3 more waiting to be changed. So, I generally just take Sawyer into the stall with me and change his diaper while he's standing up (as long as it's just wet). Hence, the "amazing standing diaper change" was born. I called it such because it made him laugh when I said it.
It was a really cool place! A sweet woman met us at the door and asked us how she could help. I told her I needed to change Sawyer's diaper and she directed us to a large room full of big, padded, changing tables. They had huge sheets of paper that you put down under the kid so as to not get all germy. It was like diaper changing heaven.
We were the only ones in there! After I was done changing his diaper, we all needed to use the bathroom. There was a unisex bathroom adjacent to the changing area, so we went in there. I was very surprised when I saw that it was just like a regular public bathroom. You know, the kind with the slats that you can see through, if you are looking, and multiple stalls. I used it, but I was really afraid a man would walk in!! I really don't think that should have been a unisex bathroom!
We peeked around the rest of the baby area and saw a room with lots of baby stuff- formula and everything. There was everything you could possibly need in there. There was also an area with high chairs for feeding babies. I hope there was a seperate area to nurse your baby, but we wouldn't have went in there and disturbed them.
Sawyer had been looking forward to riding Buzz Lightyear since he saw it online (mom had been showing him videos online for months). So, we went to check out the wait.
First, we saw that it looked like there wasn't much wait for the Laugh Floor, so we got in line. However, Sawyer was fading fast and I wasn't sure he would stay awake for the whole show. So, we got back out of the line and went over to Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin.
The line was very short- maybe 3-4 minutes.
Mom got to take Sawyer on his first spin since she got him so excited about riding it.
Deer in the headlights!
Sawyer LOVED it!!
Tessa took it very seriously.
Here's my redneck photo of a photo. Notice how I cut our scores out? You didn't need to see my pitifully low score. I believe it wasn't more than 4 digits long...
Mom is actually pretty good at this game. Her score is always WAY higher than mine.
As soon as we got off the ride, Sawyer was jumping and saying "Again! Again! Again!" He got upset with me when I wouldn't let him get right back on the ride at the exit. But, I assured him that we were going around to ride again. First, we had to pose for the standard "Imprisoned with the Evil Emporor Zurg" pictures.
This time there was absolutely no line at all. I mean NONE! We walked right on and there weren't even any people in front of or behind us! I got Sawyer this time. In the weeks leading up to the trip, he was really looking forward to shooting grandma on Buzz Lightyear. Sick, I know. So, I turned our car around and let him fire away.
He was laughing and giggling so hard, he practically fell out of his seat. He was having the time of his life! I can't believe I didn't get a picture of him! It was SO cute!
I'm thinking we rode a 3rd time, again with no line at all!!
When we got off our final spin with Buzz, we saw BUZZ HIMSELF over by the Carousel of Progress. I told mom to get the kids in line and I'd go to the stroller and get the autograph books.
We definitely waited longer to see Buzz than to ride the ride! But, it was worth it! Buzz was hilarious and kept doing these silly poses and such.
I don't think the kids thought he was as funny as I did because they were just looking at him like he was crazy.
I wish there had been a photopass photographer with him! I would have gotten in the picture.
Sawyer was very unsure about the whole thing, even though he LOVES Buzz!
We noticed that below us (we were up on the walkway to COP), Stitch was signing autographs. So, we got in line for him, too.
Stitch was really funny, too. (Tessa chose the totally unrelated decorations for this picture)
Stitch took Sawyer's autograph book and put it on his pen and started spinning it around.
Then, it flew off!
He proceeded to pick it up off the ground and "lick" it clean. It was SO funny! I was "EWWW"ing and "gross" ing. So, when he went to hand Sawyer his book back, he really didn't want it. (Sawyer really liked the Bolt decoration and insisted on it for this pic)
I had to go and take it for him.
We were done in Tomorrowland and I wanted to head over to The Jungle Cruise because it was closed for part of our last trip and I didn't get to ride it.
However, Tessa started having a meltdown because she wanted in the stroller and she didn't want Sawyer in there with her. We have a wonderful Peg Perego Pliko P3 stroller that the incredibly generous Stephres gave me. It has a little platform on the back for Tessa to stand on, so she wasn't doing much walking. But, she wanted to get IN the stroller. We let her get in, but Sawyer had to be in there with her because he was tired, too.
This did NOT make her happy.
You really must watch this video of how mom and I react to such things.
We could see that she actually thought we were pretty funny, but she wasn't about to admit it.
I warned her that she needed to stop acting like that or we were going to go back to the hotel. She really didn't want to leave, so she straightened up for a few minutes.

But, when we got in line (it was really short) for the Jungle Cruise she started acting naughty again. I was starting to think we would have to leave the park after the Jungle Cruise.
Anyway, Sawyer got a 2nd wind after resting in the stroller and he was LOVING the Jungle Cruise. I wanted him to sit on my lap so he could see better, but he insisted on sitting on the seat like a big boy.
My mom HATES snakes! This one's for her.
Pouting Tessa:
Lions! Oh my!
Sawyer LOVED the whole ride! It was so cute!
We had quite a long delay docking the boat. I don't know what was going on, but we waited for around 10 minutes to dock. But, our captain was great! He entertained us with jokes, trivia, and just chatting.
I wish I could remember some of his jokes because they were rather funny.
After the ride, Tessa was still acting up. So, I took her in the bathroom for a "discussion". She decided that she'd rather be a nice girl than have to go back to the hotel for a nap. So, she straightened right up.
I am happy to say that this was the ONLY no reason, tired, meltdown that we had on this trip! That is a reason to rejoice!!
We wandered around and saw that the line for Pirates of the Carribean was way too long and there was still no Peter Pan or Wendle around. So, we headed to Frontierland.
As soon as we crossed into Frontierland, we saw Donald Duck, right next to a DVC station. We quickly got in line. There was a guy standing at the DVC station smoking a cigarette and it was blowing right at us. I was very irritated. Then, this same guy knocked a big thing of popcorn over and it spilled into our stroller. It wasn't a big deal and he felt really bad about it. So, I ALMOST forgave him for smoking in a non-designated area. ALMOST, but not quite.
I've never seen Donald Duck over here and it was pretty cool that we just happened upon him!
Tessa stopped at the DVC center for a little pin trading. The guy there was less than enthusiastic and very impatient when Sawyer decided that he wanted to trade, too. Sawyer was really excited about it, so it irked me when the guy was rushing him (it's not like there were people lining up to hear about the DVC).
We saw that they were getting ready for the parade to start, so we staked out a sweet spot right there in Frontierland. We were about 1/2 hour early, but we were happy to have a seat and rest for a while.
Sawyer was starting to get tired, so I reclined the stroller in the hopes that he would take a little nap.
It wasn't happening.
Tessa suddenly gave me a hug and said "Thank you so much for taking me to Disney World. You're the best Mom in the world."
...and all was right with the world. :
I just love that girl!
Finally, the parade started. Here comes the family of the day. Who do you think it was???
Yes, that's the family from the teacups! It is also the camera crew that was with them. I find this to be very curious...Looking at the picture again, I just realized that I don't see the mom or the girls from the teacups- just the dad, the boys, and the camera crew. Very curious indeed...
Tessa was quite impressed with the "pretty dancing girls".
Sawyer tried waving at everyone, but he was fading fast...
You will notice in the following pictures that a great number of characters on the floats looked right at us and waved or blew kisses. It was awesome!
The parade stopped for a while when Ursula was right in front of us. Tessa had a good time with that at first. She would stick her tongue out at Ursula and Ursula would put her claw-like fingers in the air like she was going to get Tessa. It was all good fun until Tessa realized that this was REALLY URSULA!! She suddenly got really scared and hid behind me until the float moved again.
Seriously, what is up with the costumes these poor guys have to wear? They're very similar to the costumes the guy in the Disneyland Fun video (circa 1989) are wearing.
"Line up on the curb, come on everyone. Here the excitement and fun has just begun. As your Disney friends come dancing down the street. This show is a show that can't be beat."

Bad picture, but I just love the theme of this float!
Hi Alice! Nope, that doesn't look like my good friend "Wendle" in the background.
This video of Tessa is too cute!
That was a wonderful parade! We all loved it. Well...Sawyer was asleep, but the rest of us loved it!
Since we were so close to the Haunted Mansion and Sawyer was sleeping, Tessa and I headed that way. Mom said she'd meet us by the exit (she doesn't do the Haunted Mansion for religious reasons).
I was afraid that the line would be REALLY long since the parade just ended. But, we got right in! This was a GREAT MK day!
Tessa hated this ride on our last trip. But, she said she wanted to ride it again. I made sure she really did want to ride it and that she wasn't scared. She said she did!
So, we did! She did great! She didn't seem to be scared at all. She told me that she knows it's just pretend. Our doom buggy stopped twice during the ride. I found this to be rather creepy. I admit, this ride scares me a little bit. So, when the car stopped in the darkness with the sounds of ghosts and freaky things going on around us, I was a bit nervous. I even could have swore I saw someone standing in the darkness beside us...
But, I don't think I let Tessa in on what was going on in my mind because she was fine.
Our doom buggy started moving again, thankfully, and I was fine, too.
When the ride was over, Tessa wanted to do some shopping. She had been wanting to buy a baby Dumbo that she had seen in the Pooh dump shop. I made her wait in case she found something else she wanted. That Dumbo cost over $20!! So, that was pretty much all of the money she had left.
We started doing some shopping and saw these jewels that she wanted (um...$7 for a little bag of plastic discs, I don't think so). We didn't buy them, but we told her to look like she had just found some treasure.
Not quite....try again...
There we go!
I decided to let her buy the Dumbo at that point. It was her money and she REALLY wanted it. I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact that Arminda got this very same Dumbo on our last trip.
Mom noticed on the Times Guide that Storytime with Belle was about to start. Tessa told me that she didn't want to be in the show this time. She just wanted to watch. I told her that she could tell them that if they asked her to be in the show. In case you missed it, last time she was Chip in this show! Here's the video evidence!
Mom wasn't real enthused about sitting on a cement bench, in the cold shade, to watch a show. So, she sat on a bench out in the sun with a sleeping Sawyer.
Man, it was really cold in there! I thought maybe it wouldn't be too bad since it was more sheltered. But, it was windy, with no sun, on a cold cement bench. BRRR!!! Tessa really enjoyed the show and was relieved that she didn't get chosen for it.
There was a woman behind me who had 2 little girls dressed in Minnie dot. I asked her if she had made the outfits, but she said she had a friend make them for her. I told her they were really cute. She seemed very dissapointed that her girls weren't chosen to be in the show. But, her husband ended up being chosen as The Beast. Here's most of the cast:
Tessa really enjoyed the show and loved watching it this time instead of being in it.
Sawyer was still sleeping, so we thought we'd try once more to meet Tinkerbell and Co. When we got over to Toontown again, the line was still an hour long, and looked even longer than last time. Ugh! I just couldn't do it! Instead, we browsed the gift shop for a while.
I was looking at the magnets to add to my super-cool magnet collection. I thought I'd spotted one I liked and went to grab it. At that moment, a woman came up right next to me, and turned the revolving rack I was looking at! HOW RUDE! I said "Excuse me, but I was looking at those" and proceeded to turn it back. This woman actually grabbed the rack so I couldn't turn it back! I couldn't believe it! What a total and complete jerk! I said "You are behaving very rudely and I'm not going to fight you for control of the magnet rack." and I walked off. I'm not sure if she spoke English, because she never said anything to me at all.
In the meantime, Tessa had taken off with mom and had found an Ariel bank that she really wanted. She said it was just exactly what she was looking for since she broke her glass Cinderella bank. She even tapped on it to show me it was plastic! I told her that she'd already spent all of her money, so she couldn't get it. I know, I'm cruel!
Sawyer was interested in one thing, and one thing only, CANDY! He really wanted some overpriced Disney candy. Again, being the cruel mother that I am, I told him "No."
Then, I remembered that I had a $200 gift card!!! I went and got the bank that Tessa wanted, the candy that Sawyer wanted, and the magnet that I wanted. Yay! "Free" stuff! Mom came over to me and said she'd already bought the kids the suckers. How sweet is she? So, I put mine back. Tessa saw the bank and squealed with delight. She actually asked "Mom, is that for me or the Wish kids?" You see, lots of times when I buy fabric and things, it's for the Wish kids, and not for her. I assured her that it was for her and she was just as happy as could be.
After our shopping excursion, we decided to take the train back to the entrance. Sawyer had been wanting to ride the "Choo Choo" the whole time we'd been there. So, we thought he'd love it!
Ummm...not so much... The train's whistle blew and it scared him to death as we were getting on. He cried for a few minutes. The poor thing!
Tessa was just happy that she had candy to eat!
Sawyer calmed down after a while and tried to enjoy himself.
It was 6:00pm and we were done for the day. So, we headed back to Pop Century for supper.
Mom offered to get the cups for us if we wanted to wait in the food court for her. I readily agreed because I was still freezing and pretty darn tired. I sat with the kids for a while and we talked about what a great day we had together. Sawyer said "Pan" was his favorite ride and Tessa said hers was Dumbo.
When mom came back with the mugs, she looked really excited. She whispered to me "We have a towel animal in the room!" She was positively giddy about it! Honestly, so was I! We never got a towel animal at all on our last trip to POP.
I don't remember what we ate, but we told Tessa that there was a surprise in our room and that we had no idea how it got there!
It's a bunny! It had a teeny little heart sticker on it's ear, too. So cute!
Tessa's headband was on the pillow, spread out all pretty (she wasn't wearing them today because I wanted her to wear the bow that I made to match her outfit).
Baby Simba (bought on our last trip and has slept with Tessa every night since) was wearing mom's Mickey ears.
It was so cute, and the perfect thing to come back to!
I had made some window decorations and printed them on transparent window paper. So, I went about putting them in the window. It was REALLY hard to get the backing off of those suckers! But, I finally did it and decorated the window all cute. I thought I'd wait until morning to take a picture from the outside.
We were all in bed and asleep by 9:00! The next day we were going to Animal Kingdom.
Up Next: No, it is NOT better than home!

I LOVE all the updates! I would love to see the bow up close! I had to go back and look after you said you made it. For some reason I have this desire to make a bow!
Sawyer was chunking on his lollipop! I have never been in the baby care center either but it sure seems nice. I didn't know it was there for the longest time.
Hmm, you can tell I didn't open word this time!
I love it when the room is all "decorated".

Police probe Manchester shooting - updated at 11:55 a.m.Staff Report | December 31,2012By Patrick McArdle
MANCHESTER - A local man who was shot on Sunday evening told police he was the victim of a drive-by shooting but police are still investigating the circumstances that resulted in the gunshot wound, according to Manchester Police Chief Michael Hall.
Hall said on Monday morning that he believed Donald Ely-Gardner, 27, of Manchester, was no longer in life-threatening danger because of the wound.
Ely-Gardner was taken to the Manchester Police Department by a friend at around 8:30 p.m. on Sunday. He appeared to have been shot in the chest.
Hall said the gunshot wound appeared to have been caused by a small-caliber handgun.
Around 9 a.m. Monday, Hall said that, after a preliminary investigation, police believe Ely-Gardner had been at home with a friend, William Nichols Jr., in Manchester on Sunday evening. Hall said Ely-Gardner told Nichols he was going out for cigarettes around 8:30 p.m.
A short time later, Ely-Gardner called Nichols to say he had been shot. He told his friend he was on Route 7A about 200 feet south of the new roundabout at the intersection of Routes 11/30 and 7A, Hall said.
Hall said Nichols told police he went to the scene, found Ely-Gardner in a parking lot and brought him to the Manchester Police Department which is farther north on Route 7A.
The Manchester Rescue Squad took Ely-Gardner to the Southwestern Vermont Medical Center in Bennington. He was later taken by helicopter to the Albany (N.Y.) Medical Center where he had been listed in critical condition early this morning.
However, by 9 a.m., Hall said he believed Ely-Gardner was no longer considered to be in life-threatening danger.
The only information that police got from Ely-Gardner was that he had been shot by a passing driver.
"We're still processing the crime scene up there and still gathering evidence at this point," Hall said.
While police were doing their on-site investigation, Hall said they might face some challenges because a light snow was beginning to fall in Manchester on Monday morning.
Hall said police had no reason to believe there was an immediate danger to the public.
Ely-Gardner has a criminal history in the area.
He currently has seven felony charges pending for violation of an abuse prevention order. The charges were felonies based on Ely-Gardner's previous convictions for violating abuse prevention orders in November 2004.
In that case, a woman reported to the Bennington Police Department on July 11 that Ely-Gardner had been sending her text messages in violation of a relief from abuse order issued in April. Sgt. David Dutcher said he had contacted the Manchester Police Department, because Ely-Gardner lives in Manchester, and asked that Ely-Gardner be cited and given new conditions of release which re-stated that he was not to have contact with the woman.
The woman called Dutcher later on July 11 to report that Ely-Gardner had sent her text messages within about 45 minutes of being released by the Manchester police.
Ely-Gardner also has a pending charge of driving under the influence of alcohol.
In March, 2010, he was convicted by a jury of domestic assault in Bennington criminal court.
Both Hall and Bennington County State's Attorney Erica Marthage said they were not expecting to host a press conference on the incident on Monday.

Liliana, Chris, Jesse & Michele Padberg/Owners
Vivác Winery is the creation of brothers Jesse and Chris Padberg, along with their wives,
Michele and Liliana Padberg, respectively. In November of 1998 Jesse and Chris embarked on a new mission
Jesse and Chris found inspiration in France and Italy, and were especially drawn in by the Old World wine culture, where winemaking is a dance between art and science. The brothers began reading every publication they could find about grapes, winemaking, and the world of wine. Though extensive travel around the world and mentorships with other local winemakers, they learned about the wine business in general and more specifically about the wine business in Northern New Mexico; "At every turn people were there to help us out" say the brothers.
WINE EDUCATION:Through the world-renowned enology department at the University of California at Davis, the brothers gained credits and knowledge. Both Jesse and Chris continue the pursuit every day and will soon obtain their Wine Making Certification from this very prestigious school. Chris, Jesse, and Michele completed a certified wine sommelier course through the International Wine Guild in Denver, Colorado. Jesse and Michele passed their second-level wine sommelier exams and both have achieved the rank of Certified Executive Sommelier. The couple has also completed several Master-level classes. Chris and Liliana will complete their second level soon. Liliana completed her first level during their visit to Argentina at the Esencial Sobre Vinos, Tecnica de la Cara.
Chris and Jesse were born and raised in Dixon, New Mexico. Chris attended the University of Tulane in New Orleans, Louisiana, for three years before transferring to and graduating from the University of New Mexico in 2001. While at UNM, Chris worked on Vivác Winery with Jesse, while he finished up his degree in history. He now lives with his lovely wife, Liliana Zavala Padberg, and son Maddox and daughter Chablis in Dixon."
Jesse attended the University of Colorado at Boulder, where he got his degree in Spanish Literature. He now lives in Dixon with his lovely wife, Michele Alexandra Padberg (formerly Bartley), and their son, Denim.
Jesse and Chris are a nonstop team, making the wines, testing the wines, tasting the wines, and working the vineyards, each step done by hand, together. The perfectionist in each of them drives the two forward to create ever-better wines. Jesse and Chris's studies through UC Davis and The International Wine Guild continue, helping them to unearth the secrets to "the perfect wine." By nurturing each varietal, coaxing each wine through a slow and steady fermentation, and breathing soul into each wine, Jesse and Chris show their true love and passion for winemaking.
Michele and Liliana form the team that runs the business side of Vivác Winery. Michele is the Director of Marketing and Publicity. Liliana is the Tasting Room and Wine Club Manager. Together they push the winery into the forefront of people's minds through events, the Web, social media, and advertising. Vivác's growth is dependent on products getting into the hands of customers every day; the follow-up is that the product in the bottle is superb.
Michele was born and raised in Taos, New Mexico. In addition to her work with the Vivác line, she is Creative Director for Red Hot Mama Wines and the host of "Great Grape TV" a wine travel show due to air soon. Michele has a background in fine art and theatre. She studied at the renowned The School of The Art Institute of Chicago, and spent an additional 3 years as a B.F.A. Theatre major with an emphasis on Performance at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Michele is an Executive Sommelier, certified from the International Wine Guild. With her extensive knowledge of fermentation and taste profiles, she created Kissable Cheeses and is now Vivác's in-house Fromegére creating hand crafted cheeses. Her contemporary paintings and Kissable Cheeses are for sale at the Vivác Winery Tasting Room and Gallery.
Liliana was born and raised in Aguascalientes, Mexico. She has worked as a model and studied photography both in Mexico and at the University of New Mexico-Taos prior to completing her sommelier certification at Esencial Sobre Vinos, Tecnica de la Cara, in Argentina. In addition to her managerial roles with Vivác, Liliana handles the extensive taxes for the winery, happy-hour events, and computer programming. Liliana's greatest fame comes from her business, Ek.Chuah Chocolates, along with her black-and-white photography, both of which are for sale in the Vivác Winery Tasting Room and Gallery. Ek.Chuah Chocolates are hand-made and -painted moulded truffles that delight the professional foodie and the young enthusiast alike.
The word "Vivác" is a Spanish term meaning "high-altitude refuge," and Vivác Winery is just that. By choosing only the highest-quality products-from the best grapes, the most advanced winemaking equipment and processes, and real corks, to Riedel logo glasses in the tasting room-Vivác is a rarity. At every turn the Padbergs treat their wines with the utmost care; hand-harvesting and hand-sorting grapes, and even using a gentle bladder pump and gravity feed so as not to bruise the wines. Only high-quality French oak barriques and stainless steel barrels are used for aging. After bottling, these unfiltered, unfined wines rest for 12 months before they are sold. Every winemaking step is done meticulously by hand. The ever-expanding estate Fire Vineyard is farmed organically and keeps this area focused on agriculture. Each item in the tasting room that represents this boutique winery is one of elegance and refinement.With record-breaking ratings in Wine Enthusiast Magazine, Vivác Winery has earned the title of "Highest Rated Red Wine Producer in New Mexico's History." Sunset Magazine has named Vivác "Notable up and coming wine makers" and "Winery to discover now!" With a commitment to excellence, the Vivác Winery family has pushed the boundaries of what New Mexico wine can be!
While a major portion of the grapes used at Vivác are sourced from the southern part of New Mexico (in Deming), Vivác also cultivates their own estate vineyards.
The first to be planted was the Fire Vineyard in 1999. Organically farmed, this vineyard sits at 6,000 feet, and was so named because then 8-year-old Jesse and 6-year-old Chris lit the field on fire with fireworks. This vineyard is planted on the family property tucked into the hills of Dixon, near the winery facility and surrounded by apple orchards. When Jesse and Chris planted the vineyard, little was known in the area about what would grow. Local vintners and growers recommended French hybrids, including Leon Millot, Baco Noir, and Marechal Foch. As years have passed and these highly skilled winemakers learned to tame the briar-like rustic qualities of these grapes, the Fire Vineyard estate wine has become a customer favorite!
The newly planted 1725 Vineyard is organically farmed and sits at 5,800 feet. It was named based on the information given to us about the land itself by Dixon native and historian, Estevan Arellano. The land where the tasting room and new vineyard are located once belonged to Mr. Arellano's great-grandmother's companion, Francisco Martin, a great-great-grandson of the original Francisco Martin who settled the Embudo Valley in 1725. The couple never married, but had three children. The land passed down through generations and finally to Vivác.
Originally the boundaries of this land stretched from the Barrancos Blancos (the white sandstone mountain that is on our label and serves as a landmark to our tasting room) down to the Angostura (which is the present-day Arroyo de la Mina). The Padbergs were struck by the history of the land and the long-lost years of the past; what this soil has seen is awe-inspiring. To quickly articulate all of this, you need say no more then "1725," and thus the new vineyard name was found.
1725 Vineyard, thus far, is planted in white Chenin Blanc grapes, white Riesling grapes & red Petit Verdot grapes. Vivác looks forward to expanding the vineyard in the next year with Pinot Noir.
In 2008 we purchased an adjacent 2 acres to the tasting room property, and in 2010, we purchased another 8 acres, also adjacent to the tasting room property, which includes a vineyard house. All of this new property will be planted in vines and eventually house the entire winemaking facility as well. The vineyard will continue to be named 1725 Vineyard.
Southern New Mexico's Mimbres Valley (at 4,300 feet) is currently the state's only AVA (American Viticulture Area), and is the site where a major portion of the state's grapes are grown. Vivác works closely with the vineyard manager to pick when the grapes have an appropriate sugar level and yet a level conducive to good acidity. The grapes are handpicked in small baskets and delivered to our winery whole.
Vivác Winery, along with other growers in the area, are currently working to have the Embudo Valley named as an AVA. This will help New Mexico greatly expand its reputation and recognition in the wine world.
The winery facility is on the family property, tucked into the Dixon foothills, surrounded by apple orchards. The original building is a 500-square-foot Rastra-block space built by Jesse and Chris in 1999. This space was quickly outgrown. In 2004 the current facility, a 1500-square-foot metal building, was put up, insulated, and equipped with a full heating and cooling system designed to keep the wines at a constant temperature, from fermentation to oak aging and finally to bottle. The initial building is now used for storage of bottled wines awaiting release. The total winemaking facility is 2000 square feet, not nearly enough for the 20% yearly growth in production.Everything in the winemaking process is done entirely by hand, from hand-sorting the grapes to hand-punch-downs and hand-bottling. The 100% French oak barrique collection is formed of both new and old oak barrels. Despite French oak's high price, the Padbergs insist on using only this top-quality wood because it imparts the sweet spices that are a hallmark of Vivác's Old World-style wines. When not in oak, Vivác wines are fermented and aged in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks.
Located at the corner of Highway 75 (Dixon) and Highway 68 (between Taos and Santa Fe), this 900-square-foot adobe building was built by Jesse and Chris themselves. With vaulted ceilings and a striking flagstone bar, the tasting room offers guests a chance to taste impressive Vivác wines. Guests can shop for wine gifts (corkscrews in every budget, a library of wine education books, wine racks, games, logo shirts, Riedel logo glasses, and much more) and enjoy the famous handmade chocolates, contemporary jewelry, and exquisite art (paintings, photography, and blown glass). The Padbergs' thirst for knowledge is accompanied by a desire to share that information, including an intensive training and testing schedule for staff. Each tasting room attendant is required to not only know about the Vivác wines, but also about the process of growing grapes, winemaking, and general knowledge about wines around the world. This training is in an effort to create a knowledgeable staff ready to help each customer to their fullest.
Outside, the rock-framed flowerbeds welcome visitors and draw them along flagstones paths into the walled retreat of the patio. The views are breath-taking, one toward the river and mountains gazing over the vineyard, and the other of the massive sandstone mountain, Barrancos Blancos, which is so artfully depicted on the signature Vivác label.The tasting room is open 7 days a week all year long, with free Wi-Fi and a happy-hour season (from spring through fall) that attracts locals and tourists alike to the live-music Saturdays and drink specials, making it truly a community winery.
Jana is a Texas transplant, but has lived here long enough to be considered a local! She elicits the memories of summers past when she would visit New Mexico, lured by the beautiful high desert. Upon her move, she built a solar home in the small village of Ojo Sarco. Jana loves wine because "it encompasses all of the senses: taste, sight and smell." She goes on to say that her favorite things about Vivác Winery "are the people I work with and the customers I meet from all over the country and around the world." Jana has an extensive résumé working in retail prior to becoming a part of the Vivác family. Today, Jana's hobbies include road cycling, river rafting, and hiking.
Jasmine was born and raised in Taos, New Mexico, and recently moved with her husband, Zach, to Dixon. Her mother was actually one of Jesse and Chris's teachers at Taos High School. With a résumé built on retail experience, Jasmine is also an organic farmer. She appreciates that Vivác organically farms as well. Jasmine explains that she was drawn to Vivac for the winery's "quality of products and commitment to quality," along with her love of wine, "the history, the diversity of flavors and aromas. The more I learn, the more fascinating it becomes."
Heather moved to New Mexico from Vermont to pursue her Master's degree in Eastern Classics from St. John's College in Santa Fe. Her first introduction to wine was on a trip to France and Italy at the age of 18. There she "learned to understand the ritualistic love of wine and food." The wine she brought back and the experience drinking it has left an indelible mark. Heather's favorite thing about Vivác is "meeting all of the interesting people who come through the tasting room." Heather says, by working at Vivác, "I rediscovered my love of wine." Heather and her husband, Les, organically farm and keep 200 topbar hives, selling the produce and honey at the Santa Fe Farmer's Market.
|Seraph grew up in Eugene OR, but moved to Vadito, NM with her husband and daughter after what she calls "a bad day at work"! As a children's clothing developer for a department store chain in OR, Seraph shifted gears to work at Sipapu Ski Resort and Espanola Public Schools here in NM. She loves that no matter how much she learns about wine, there is always something more to surprise her. She says "Vivac wines were the first NM wines i tasted that i really enjoyed! It was clear from the beginning that there was a lot of love thought that went into these beautiful hand-crafted wines. Getting to know the winemakers and their families cemented my admiration. Now i can combine my belief of supporting small businesses and eating locally, with my appreciation of wine!". Seraph also enjoys reading, baking, sewing and travel.

Plum Persimmon Tartlets
That day, my neighbor, Mary Ann invited me to another neighbor's house, Milo, to pick some plums in the backyard. He has a very beautiful backyard with green lawn, a gazebo with nice outdoor furniture set, some beautiful colorful flowers and some healthy fruit trees especially the santa rosa plum tree. I was amazed by the number of colorful purple magenta light red plums hanging on that giant tree, just like Christmas tree full of colorful ornaments. I said to myself that I am going to get a plum tree in my backyard too. Now, it is my recipe making this plum tartlets and added in some persimmons too.

Healthy Chicken Beans
I was making this chicken dish because of wanting to eat healthy and light. I used 2 big pieces of chicken thigh with drumsticks to make into a big pot of chicken soup (as usual way of making a soup with celery, carrots and onions). However, the chicken has to be cooked just right or little al dante. Take out the chicken and let it cool down so that you can shred the meat out. No Skin for this healthy eating. Once shredded, saute some beans (I used turtle purple beans just like purple string beans) with carmelised onions and some ginger. Add some garlic salt to taste. Once near to done, add the shredded chicken meat into the pan and mix all together, saute again for a min or two. Thats it, healthy chicken beans for dinner. No starchy food. Garnish with cucumber and bell peppers, or any other vegetables you like. Lastly, drizzle some soy sauce on top and you can enjoy this meal in front of the TV.

Rockfish Ontop of Congee
It was fun thinking of what goes with my Rockfish, that is the Congree or Porridge. Cantonese called it "Jook". You can make your own flavor jook or just plain easily. Mine was watercress, sausage, chicken stock, green onions and of cos, jasmine rice. Why Jasmine Rice? Well, it is very smooth in texture, cooked fast and more aroma than the others. So the Rockfish I got from Costco is fresh and I seasoned it with olive oil, garlic salt and masala spice. Seared the Rockfish until cooked, say 4-5 minutes each side depends on how thick is the fillet. The thicker the longer in the hot saucepan (medium to high heat). The texture of the rockfish is flakey and white fish taste. I garnished with chopped fresh parsley. You can use cilantro or green onions or any other herbs you prefer. Well, try it and you sure will enjoy your jook time.

On top of that, it also looks after the hair using far infrared technology to heat the hair from within (which helps to conserve moisture) and emitting negative ions which eliminate static and frizz. The result? Soft, smooth, shiny hair that holds its style.
The Corioliss C3 has a 360° swivel cord to prevent tangles. It's available in 6 designs: glossy, stylish Black or bang-on-trend Gold Leopard, Gold or Silver Paisley, pure white Carbon Fiber or new for A/W 2014 Purple Ombre.
Each C3 is supplied with a matching heat mat (see picture below).

This Mustang Parts Installation Guide Works For
Tools Required
Installation Time: 3 Hours
Do not smoke, carry lighted tobacco or have an open flame of any type in the area where installation is taking place. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and may be ignited. Do not carry personal electronic devices such as cell phones or audio equipment when performing installation. Failure to follow this warning may result in serious personal injury.
Do not attempt installation before relieving fuel pressure as outlined in step 1 below.
Please review these instructions carefully. If any part of this procedure seems out of your scope of capabilities, please seek a certified mechanic to perform this installation.
Step 1. Relieve fuel pressure by opening the fuse box cover (Illustration 1 & 2) and removing the fuel pump module fuse as shown (Illustration 3). Start the engine and allow it to run until it stalls. After engine stalls, crank engine for approximately 10 seconds to ensure fuel injection pressure has been relieved. If engine fires, repeat cranking until engine does not attempt to start. Turn ignition switch to off position.
Step 2. Disconnect negative battery cable from battery.
Step 3. Unbolt and remove strut tower brace (Illustration 4).
Step 4. Disconnect Crankcase Vent Outlet pipe and Vacuum Tube Outlet pipe from air intake assembly. Remove clamps holding Inlet tube to Throttle Body and remove Inlet Tube as shown (Illustration 5).
Note: This step will vary if an aftermarket induction package is installed. Removing the inlet tube assembly from the throttle body is the requirement for this step, however it is accomplished.
Step 5. Disconnect IAT2 connector, Fuel Rail PressurelTemperature Sensor connector, and Throttle Position Sensor connector as shown. Disconnect Fuel Rail/Temperature Sensor vacuum hose at both ends as this will need to be replaced with Ford Part Number 7R3V-9E498-BA or suitable fabricated hose (Illustrations 6 & 7).
Step 6. Remove fuel supply spring lock coupling as shown (Illustration 8 & 9), using the appropriate fuel line disconnect tool (Ford Tool number 310- S039 or equivalent).
Step 7. Disconnect the electrical connectors to the 8 injectors.

Asko Washer (Model: WM90A / 10710505) - #1 Prog Cycle Not Working
Posted 07 October 2012 - 11:27 AM
I've got an Asko washer and one program cycle isn't working (the program cycle #1). All of the other cycles (#2-9) seem to be operating completely as expected. I'm guessing that it's either the timer/timer motor or the fill valve, but I'm unsure how to test these, or what exactly I should be testing...
Can anyone give any guidance?
Posted 07 October 2012 - 02:50 PM
I'm guessing that since the timer/motor seems to be functioning in all other programs that the problem is the inlet valve.

I've used a lot of front load washers, none have gotten my clothes as clean as the Askos - and honestly, I've never had many issues with these units. I've just been procrastinating fixing them. Normally, I'd hire someone to do the work, but at this point in their lives, I don't feel it's worth the extra expense, especially since I'm quite capable of fixing them myself.
My only *real* complaint is theat the matching dryer is too small to dry a washer load's worth without wrinkling them. (and no, I never dry them to a completely bone dry state - except sheets - damp sheets suck)

Recognising and understanding the impact that different farming practices have on greenhouse gas emissions is an important aspect of tackling the ambitious emissions reduction target that has been set for the UK agricultural industry.
The Farm Carbon Assessment Tool takes an alternative approach to assessing a farm's carbon footprint. Instead of focusing on figures and tonnes of emissions it allows you to look at the aspects of your farm which contribute to your farm's carbon footprint and scores key farm practices in relation to their impact on greenhouse gas emissions – highlighting areas for improvement, providing targeted, technical support and enabling you to monitor your progress towards best practice in relation to low carbon farming and lowering the emissions impact of your farm.

Book Format definitions:
Leo Tolstoy combined detailed physical description with perceptive psychological insight to sweep aside the sham of surface appearances and lay bare man's intimate gestures, acts, and thoughts. Murder and sacrifice...greed and devotion...lust and affection...vanity and love -- one by one, in this volume of great stories, Tolstoy dissects the basic drives, emotions, and motives of ordinary people searching for self-knowledge and spiritual perfection. Chekhov said, "Of authors my favorite is Tolstoy." And Turgenev "marveled at the strength of his huge talent...It sends a cold shudder even down my back...He is a master, a master."

Idk how to do my team bank & stuff.
2013-1014 is the season the Pelicans fanbase grows!!!!
You don't follow my Twitter, I lead yours.
I loved your peja pic. I literally lol'd
Actually there are no franchise changers left in the remainder of this draft..
What you all think of the Stackhouse pick? 😁
All matters what you do around him IMO . Didn't love it didn't hate it. You've got a scorer which is always important.
ugh... felt so dumb, I just kept looking at the top of the draft page (that wasn't updated) and was wondering what was taking so long to get to my pick... didn;t think about looking at the replies, I'm an idiot
I wanted Brand
Why isn't round two snake, according to the draft order index?
I don't think that's your call. I didn't see any votes for complete random.
I don't see how 5 votes (only 17% of the total GMs) can overturn the current system (which is a randomized draft). And, yes, the randomized system is the current system because CP3forMVP couldn't get the computer to change to the snake system. So, as such, you would need 51% of the total votes (or 15 out of 29 votes) in order to overturn the current system. I mean, that is how we do things in America.
Well all Im saying is nothing has been announced and if he were going to do the snake the first two rounds I doubt the index would be updated to it. Let's wait on the official word before we announce anything like its happened. I was under the impression it was a straight majority vote. So we will all have to wait and see with the power to decide says.
I'm not saying it has happened. I don't know what is going to happen. I'm just saying that logic and justice would suggest that we are sticking with the current format, considering only 17% of the GMs voted to change the current system.
I disagree, but nothing's new there. We shall see.
Because if that is your position, then you are incredibly biased to the point of embarrassment.
Majority rules. I shut up and let you guys have your little vote. The vast majority of GMs decided not to partake in said vote, but that is not my problem. There is not enough popular opinion to overturn the current system. That is my stance, and I have figures to back me up. All you have is "I want a higher draft pick, so I'm voting to change the system."
Again, I'm sorry that you got a bad bounce in the 2nd round, but somebody had to pick later in the round, and that process was decided in the fairest way possible - a computer generated randomization. It doesn't get much fairer than that. You position is weak, at best, so please cut the shenanigans.
It turns out it is a snake draft, for the first two rounds.

|On 5/14/10 The LVCLC with help from the ASCA replaced the 4th protection bolt on the route. The bolt was moved about 1' higher due to rock quality concerns. The anchor bolts were also replaced and mussy hooks were added. All bolts replaced are 1/2" x 3.5 5-piece bolts. The first bolt was not replaced (we could not safely do it without several crash pads), so bring a stick clip for this route- the second bolt (now the 1st) is roughly 15' up.
