To Fr Aquilino Bocos Merino, C.M.F.
1. I am very pleased to address this Message to you for your congregation's 150th anniversary, as you recall that day, 16 July 1849, when St Anthony Mary Claret, with five other young priests, founded your religious family in a humble cell at the seminary of Vich. On this occasion I join in your thanksgiving to the Lord for all the generations of Missionary Sons of the Immaculate Heart of Mary who have been witnesses to the faith and faithful co-workers in the evangelizing mission which the divine Redeemer entrusted to his Church.
This year, which the Church has dedicated to God the Father, your founder offers us an eloquent witness of fervent love for God, since his life was consumed with apostolic zeal to make God known, loved and served (cf. Autobiography, 233). Love for the Father prompted St Anthony Mary Claret to follow and imitate Jesus Christ always in prayer, work and suffering (ibid., 494), and to open himself to the action of the Holy Spirit, who inspired his mission of evangelizing the poor (ibid., 687).
2. The Second Vatican Council teaches that "the spirit and aims of each founder should be faithfully accepted and retained, as indeed should each institute's sound traditions, for all of these constitute the patrimony of an institute" (Perfectae caritatis, n. 2). This time of thanksgiving for which your Congregation is preparing is thus an invitation to turn your gaze to St Anthony Mary Claret. In a society affected by the changes brought by industrialization, he found himself as a missionary, putting the demands of the Gospel before the normal attractions which a comfortable life could offer. His weapon was the Word of God, lived and proclaimed as a message of salvation for everyone. He spread it through the printed word, catechesis and preaching, convinced that consolation for the sorrowful, strength for the weak, health for the sick and forgiveness for sinners could be found in it. With continuous prayer, study and a life of piety, he became an authentic evangelizer, first in his native Catalonia, then in the Canary Islands and later, as Archbishop, in Cuba and Spain.
For you this experience of a vital relationship with the Word of God must be an authentic patrimony, a unifying inspiration and an inescapable commitment in the various situations of life which you must face today in your mission of evangelization.
3. Unlimited availability for the ministry of the Word, motivated by reasons of urgency, opportunity and effectiveness in the service of the kingdom of God, was a characteristic of St Anthony Mary Claret's missionary style, which you have inherited. Thus, transcending human and geographical borders, you are celebrating this 150th anniversary by your presence on all the continents, where you work in the mission ad gentes to inspire the birth of new Christian communities. Not forgetting the so-called "interior mission" of preaching renewal in the ancient Churches, you are furthering your option for the peoples who need to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ since, as your founder taught, the apostolic missionary has been given various parts of the world which he must make fruitful, like the five talents (cf. Avisos a un sacerdote, Appendix).
As you carry out this work of evangelization, be a leaven of unity and brotherhood, teaching all men and women to regard themselves as children of the same God and Father. This is why it is encouraging to note that the consolidated universality of the congregation has also enriched you with vocations from the most varied parts of the world; this grace increases the joy and gratitude of your jubilee celebration.
4. Moreover, community life is an essential feature of your consecrated life. The Constitutions point out that collaboration in the ministry of the Word belongs to the very origins of your community life (cf. Constitutions, n. 13). Fr Claret wanted to do with others what he could not do on his own (cf. Carta al Nuncio, 12 August 1849, in Cartas selectas, p. 74). This celebration has led you to promote the spirituality of communion and to encourage everyone to work together in transforming the world according to God's plan.
Your vocation is described in the Constitutions as "the gift of following Christ in communion of life and of proclaiming the Gospel to all creation" (n. 4). Throughout their history this has been the hallmark of the sons of Fr Claret, who have shone brightly because of their witness in the Church.
5. St Anthony Mary Claret also knew how to pass on to his sons, as a distinctive sign of his charism, a profound "ecclesial sense", of which he gave clear proof during his ministry as a priest and Bishop in the difficult circumstances of the Church in his time. This deep love for the Church, expressed in full communion with and in diligent obedience to the Bishops, especially the Roman Pontiff, has borne abundant fruit throughout the history of your congregation.
Before the great challenges of evangelization lying ahead, Claretian Missionaries, particularly those involved in theological research, teaching, catechesis and the communications media are called to live ecclesial communion with loyalty, to adhere with mind and heart to the Church's Magisterium and to bear a witness of sentire cum Ecclesia, since filial love for the Church imparts power and forcefulness to their apostolic activity (cf. Vita consecrata, n. 46).
As you know, evangelization in the forthcoming millennium calls for a new discernment of your missionary apostolate, especially in suggesting vocations to young people and in the formation of future generations of Claretians, following the teaching of their founder, for whom holiness and knowledge were both necessary, like the missionary's two feet (cf. Constitutions of 1865, 104, 4º). For this reason it is worth mentioning the effort the congregation is devoting to the continuing formation of its members and to community ways of fostering its own spirituality, based on St Anthony Mary's ascetical and mystical experience, set out principally in his Autobiography, the Magna Carta of Claretian spirituality and of your service to God's kingdom in the Church.
6. Mary's presence is one of the features that distinguish your religious identity. From her Immaculate Heart Claret's sons learned her contemplative attitude in accepting the Word, her love and simplicity in transmitting it and her heartfelt devotion to the merciful plan of God, which prompts them to be close to the poor and the needy. This is why Claretian Missionaries must continue to bear the prophetic message of hope which today, in the language of the heart, Mary offers to the human family, so wounded in its deepest values and aspirations.
As the Church prepares to celebrate the Great Jubilee of the Incarnation, I would like to entrust your apostolic projects, your missionary labours and the hopes that animate you to the Heart of God's Mother, so that she may grant you the joy of being docile and generous instruments in proclaiming the Gospel to the men and women of our time.
7. Trusting in the efficacious intercession of St Anthony Mary Claret, I offer my thanks to the heavenly Father for all the exemplary Claretian Missionaries who, over the past 150 years, have distinguished themselves by their missionary energy, self-denial and zeal at the service of the Church on the five continents. In this regard, I would like to recall in particular the 51 Claretian Martyrs of Barbastro whom I had the joy of beatifying in 1992, all of whom were models of the enthusiastic following of Christ in community life.
I commend the present and future of the entire congregation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, so that she, a woman docile to the Spirit and a model of deep fidelity to Jesus, may fill you with her motherly love and zeal for souls. At this jubilee celebration, gathered round Mary in prayer, like the Apostles in the Upper Room, may you relive the experience of Pentecost, strengthening your missionary enthusiasm in order to go and preach the Gospel to the ends of the earth. With these heartfelt sentiments and with great affection, I impart my Apostolic Blessing to all the Claretian Missionaries, Sons of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
Warsaw, the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, 12 June 1999.

"Unknown armed men intercepted two buses on a road in Banaras Chowk neighbourhood and shot indiscriminately on the passengers, killing at least 10 and wounding 20 others," a provincial home ministry official told AFP news agency.
The inspector general of police told Al Jazeera that 15 other people were targeted and shot dead in different areas across Karachi – bringing the death toll on Thursday to 25.
The fresh wave of violence in the city began on Tuesday.
The violence, which broke out in Orangi Town, later spread to Lyari, Baldia Town, Site and Gulshan-i-Iqbal areas.
Pakistan attack raises security fears
Police said armed men hijacked one of the minibuses from Rashid Minhas Road and shot five passengers - three of whom were relatives, in the head.
The assailants managed to escape after dumping the vehicle in the Ziaul Haq Colony in Gulshan-i-Iqbal.
City officials blame the third straight day of violence on political and ethnic tensions.
Police claimed it arrested over 100 individuals suspected of being involved in the violence.
Karachi is frequently plagued by sectarian killings, crime and kidnappings.
'Alarming rise'
On Tuesday, the Human Rights Commission of Pakistan said it had documented the violent deaths of more than 1,100 people in Karachi in the first half of 2011. Some 490 of these were targeted killings on political, ethnic or sectarian grounds. The figures do not include an estimated 42 people killed in the first week of July, one of the most violent periods in Karachi this year.
"The alarming rise in targeted killings and general insecurity in Pakistan over the past two years reflects a grave law and order crisis in the country," said Sam Zarifi, Asia-Pacific director at Amnesty International.
"Even when investigations have been opened in a few high-profile cases, they have either been inadequate or have failed to address the systemic problems leading to impunity."

According to the National Women's Health Network and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, hysterectomy is the second most frequently performed surgical procedure (after cesarean section) for women in the United States. Approximately 600,000 hysterectomies are performed annually in the U.S.
As with any life-changing operation, it's imperative that you explore all options with your health care provider to ensure hysterectomy is medically necessary. Typically, a hysterectomy is a required intervention in the case of several life-threatening conditions, which include:
With continued advancements in technology, a variety of surgical options for hysterectomy exist: vaginal, laparoscopic-assisted vaginal, abdominal and laparoscopic-assisted abdominal. Although there several options for rapid recovery, it's important to understand that the least invasive may not be the best choice for you.
"Every patient is different in terms of how they recover and what type of specific surgery they require," says David Druckman, MD, OB/GYN at Park Nicollet Clinic and clinical director of women's health at St. Francis. "Ultimately, the procedure you and your doctor choose should be dictated by the underlying condition being treated, as well as the patient's medical or surgical history and their individual pelvic anatomy. There are many things that factor in."
A highly trained gynecologist performs the surgery and all seven of the gynecologists at St. Francis offer the full range of options. Hysterectomies may also need to be combined with reconstruction procedures to address urinary incontinence from prolapsed pelvic relaxation, cancer or other complicated circumstance. Many conditions, such as abnormal bleeding, can be managed without a hysterectomy.
"Endometrial ablation has become a widely held option to remove excess endometrial lining, for instance," Druckman says. Uterine fibroids, another common condition, can often be treated with antiestrogen drugs and laser ablation, rather than having to remove reproductive organs. Be sure to speak to your physician about your options if you are experiencing symptoms or have been diagnosed with any of the above conditions, as well as endometriosis or uterine prolapse, or if you have pre-cancerous cells.
"No matter what option you choose the goal is always to provide a safe procedure with minimal hospital stay and a quick recovery," Dr. Druckman adds, "Always talk to your physician before deciding what procedure you want."

uncooked lasagna noodles
1 pound
sweet Italian sausage
2/3 cup
chopped onions
1/2 tablespoon
minced garlic
2/3 cup
chopped fresh parsley, divided
3 (6 ounce) cans
tomato paste
1 (15 ounce) can
tomato sauce
2 cups
1 1/2 teaspoons
Italian seasoning
1 1/2 teaspoons
dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons
dried basil leaves
1 pound
part-skim ricotta cheese
1 (10 ounce) package
chopped spinach, thawed and squeeze dried
1/2 cup
grated Parmesan cheese
2 teaspoons
garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon
ground black pepper
3 cups
shredded mozzarella cheese
This would have been a nicer presentation w/out so much sauce. NO need for 2 cups on the bottom of pan. I also used the no-boil lasagna noodles but I do cover them with hot water for 10 minutes prior to using because...it's easier to layer with normal size noodles. I use my own Italian sausage made from ground pork. Used 3 T Italian seasoning + 1 tsp of crushed red pepper flakes with other recipe herbs in my own homemade tomato sauce. I added extra fresh grated Parm & Mozz & used roasted garlic (and herbs) in ricotta mix. 3 cans of tomato paste seemed "heavy" to me so I didn't use any. I simmered sauce for 1 hour. I have quit using spinach as I don't like fussing with it. Anyway ~ If you can plan ahead: assemble and store (covered) in fridge day before cooking for a stress free company dinner.
What I've found works best for layering: A little sauce + 1 T olive oil, layer of pasta - sauce - cooked/crumbled meat (I don't cook it in sauce) - Parmesan - shredded mozzarella -ricotta mix and back to layer of pasta. Repeat with last layer of pasta on top. Top that lightly with some sauce, add't Mozzarella and parm. Another note: Do NOT try to cut /serve lasagna right out of the oven. Allow it to sit for at least 30 minutes. :)
My husband made this one night. It was good, but took a long time. Also, the sausage taste didn't really come out, so it seemed a bit of a waste.

this recipe makes a mean lasagna! i added sliced zucchini, fresh mushrooms and used 4 cups shredded mozz. i didn't have fresh parsley so i substituted with 3 1/2 tablespoons dried. it turned out so yummy! it's time consuming but the end result is well worth the effort. i will be making this again, and again, and again!! thanks for sharing...
great lasagna! I love that it has sausage instead of ground beef...so much more interesting. For anyone who has not tried this, I did and it worked great - instead of boiling the noodles, I laid them on a sheet pan and poured boiling water over them while I was making the red sauce (btw, I like diced tomatoes, so I substitued those instead of tom. sauce and water as called for). Since the dish bakes for 45 minutes, the noodles came out perfect!! So much easier than boiling the noodles.
I made this for Christmas dinner for my family and they raved about it! Even those who don't like lasagna couldn't help but ask for seconds. I added some extra sausage for the meat lovers. This is now my favorite lasagna recipe!
My family really liked this recipe. It takes some time but we were able to make two meals from this. Be sure you are a spinach lover if you decide to use it because I was able to taste it much more than I expected. Delicious!
FANTASTIC!!! I love a good homemade lasagna, you can't beat them - so much better than store bought. Very time consuming to make, but always worth it! Anyway, made this over the weekend for my mom and dad's birthday dinner & I loved that this one uses tomato paste and tomato sauce instead of jarred pasta sauce. I didn't have Italian sausage, so I used a combo of lean ground beef and some ground pork. I also added some fresh zucchini and grated carrots and my usual dash of nutmeg to the ricotta mixture. A great tip is to soak uncooked lasagna noodles in hot water for 20-30 mins while you are prepping everything else - no need to boil the water and cook the noodles as they finish cooking when the lasagna goes in the oven! I made this on the Friday, left it sitting uncooked until the Saturday and then cooked that afternoon. So yummy. Great with a nice salad and Italian Pinwheel Rolls from this site, mmmmm!!
great and easy lasagna!! I only used 2 cans of tomato paste, omitted the spinach and added fresh sliced mushrooms. I also used the no boil noodles which was alot easier. Must be good because my husband ate a HUGE amount!! Will make again and again!!

Tatung Co, Taiwan's leading home appliance maker, is considering replicating its local retail business model in Vietnam, its chairman said.
"If our local formula works out successfully, we will consider setting up similar stores in Vietnam," company chairman Lin Wei-shan said.
Tatung initiated a strategic change last year, renovating and expanding its service outlets around the nation into 3C—computers, communications and consumer electronics—stores. This allowed the company to diversify its offerings from home appliances to include computers and electronic goods from other brands.
A Taipei Times report said Tatung was eyeing the rising spending power in Vietnam, expected to grow by between 8 and 8.5 percent this year.

If you ever wondered how to lengthen a paper, introductions are one place to start. Here are some ideas: check with your professor first, however, as disciplines vary greatly in what is considered an acceptable introduction.
Where students often go wrong is that they begin the body of the paper after they wade into the controversy or issues. Imagine going into a home: sometimes homes have a small place to hang a coat or umbrella and to take off boots. That is the purpose an introduction has: it's a place to put things before coming into a subject. Here are some of those things you can discuss for 1-2 pages:
These items can make a paper solid; they show you are a master of the subject.

Welcome to Sugar Valley Farm
We are a small family atmosphere offering a variety of equine services to our customers. Our farm is located amidst beautiful farmlands in Kempton, Lehigh Valley.
We are just minutes off of Route I-78, close to Fogelsville, Alburtis, Macungie, Emmaus, Hamburg, Orefield, Lenhartsville and Kutztown (to name a few). We are conveniently situated approximately 15 minutes from Allentown, Whitehall and Reading, and just a short distance further from Quakertown.
Even though we are close enough to populated areas, we are still far enough away that our old country roads see only two or three cars a day. The name "Sugar Valley" was given to our little valley during the era of Prohibition, when area farmers grew apples to make whiskey and then utilized local railways to distribute bootleg bottles around the region.
About Us
Kelly and Ned, the owners of Sugar Valley Farm, purchased the estate in September 2010, and have diligently worked to turn their 17 acre property into a small equestrian facility. The doors of Sugar Valley Farm opened to boarders and lesson students in September 2011. As we continue to grow, we hope that you will share in it along with us!
Kelly has been riding horses for over 30 years. Throughout her childhood and teenage years, she competed at horse shows in the tri-state area with her Saddlebred, Penny's Half Penny. In college, Kelly was a member of the Penn State Equestrian Team. One of Kelly's dreams growing up was to own her own horse farm, and after meeting Ned, that dream finally came true! Kelly and Ned love life in the country, and they want to share it with you. Contact us to arrange a visit.
Sugar Valley Farm offers its customers a relaxing atmosphere to enjoy riding and enjoy the countryside. Whether you are interested in showing, trail riding, or simply riding for fun, you'll find it here at Sugar Valley Farm.

The November weather was changing rapidly, in typical London fashion, from snow to rain towhat's this?balmy sunshine while Brad Grey, snug in the backseat of a Mercedes limo on his way to the set of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, offered his frank thoughts on becoming a studio head: "The idea of running a studiowalking through the lot at Warner Bros. or Paramount or Foxthat's a very romantic idea. The problem is, the job is no longer romantic. It's not the studio days of old, in my opinion. At this point you're simply there to make your quarter and give the parent company a good story to go to Wall Street with." Grey let out a sneaky laugh. "Most of my friendsthe guys who are running the studios nowwill candidly tell you that quite a few of them simply did it for the plane." He allowed himself another magnificent and nearly silent snicker. "But I prefer to pay for my own plane."
Some eight weeks after our conversation, on January 6, 2005, Grey accepted an offer to become the chairman and CEO of Paramount Motion Pictures.
When I spoke with him soon after the announcement, he remembered his comments and laughed again. "Well, contrary to our London conversation, I think this is going to be fun," he said. "The moment I made the decision, I felt this huge sense of invigoration. And I hadn't felt that way in a long time."
Grey brings an enviable package to the boardroom: The longtime independent has scored as both an A-list talent manager and a high-profile TV producer who, at the moment he was hired, was already translating his small-screen success with The Sopranos into Hollywood features. When Paramount called, Grey had more than a dozen movies in the works, including a remake of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, with Tim Burton, and The Departed, with Martin Scorsese. He'd also demonstrated a knack for finding profit in underexploited markets, like cable and DVDs, and he did all this without losing his rep as a likable guy, a good listener, and an eager advocate who could turn negotiations of great consequence into reasonable, easygoing exchanges between grown-ups. Still, the move to Paramount comes with questions: Can an independent producer with a gift for attracting and bundling talent pull off the same trick at a major studioone that's currently in last place?
Viacom, Paramount's corporate parent, lured Grey into the fold by combining the better parts of two jobsJonathan Dolgen's position as chairman of Viacom's entertainment group and Sherry Lansing's as the head of Paramount Motion Pictures. The consolidation of power got Grey's attention. His friend Richard Zanuck, who had similar control over both content and purse strings as the head of Twentieth Century Fox in the '60s, urged Grey to take it, telling him that challenges of this scope don't come along that often. He also said, "Brad, do you realize that everybody who does have this job wishes they were you?" According to Zanuck, studio heads looked across the fence at Brad and said, " 'Oh, if I could only be Brad Grey!' Then Brad Grey decided he wanted to be one of those guys."
The most recent example of the 47-year-old Grey's skills as both a dealmaker and a people person is the Tim Burton project, which got off the ground when Grey secured the rights to the Roald Dahl book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory from Liccy Dahl, the author's widow. "Brad got the rights, which was almost impossible to do," Warner Bros. head Jeff Robinov said. "She basically had veto rights, so all the decisions were mutual, over director, actor, scripteverything. And Brad was instrumental in helping to build a bridge between us and Liccy."
One day last November, at Pinewood Studios outside London, Tim Burton, in a proper director's beret, was busy climbing up and down a stepladder, prepping for the scene in which the golden-ticket winners arrive at the dark and awesome gates of the chocolate factory and the main charactersCharlie Bucket, Augustus Gloop, Violet Beauregarde, et alwandered about on the cobblestones and fake snow. No one seemed to notice Brad Grey walking around the action. The only actor to say anything about the producer's arrival was Missi Pyle, playing Mrs. Beauregarde, the Wonka-world equivalent of a hot tennis mom. "I saw your name on the check," she said. "I guess that's why you're here." Grey chuckled, shook a few hands, politely excused himself, and promptly disappeared around a corner.
As it turned out, Grey absolutely had to find Johnny Deppthe Willy Wonka of the Burton versionto tell him about a surprise deal he'd made the night before. He'd just bought the rights to the Australian novel Shantaram, which Depp wanted to develop into a movie for himself. To get these rights, Grey had stayed up till four that morning, on the phone to California, in a bidding war he finally wonpaying $2 million for the sprawling story of an ex–heroin addict who escapes from prison, flees to India, joins the Bombay Mafia, and falls in love. Grey came back from Depp's trailer a few minutes after he'd disappeared, almost out of breath with excitement. "We were celebrating," he said. "Very happyvery, very happy to get it. He was ecstatic. So I said, 'Give me another assignment, boss. I don't have anything to do tonight.' "

Odfjell Vineyards, Chile
by Tom Cannavan, 07/13
Arnaud Hereu (right), chief winemaker of Odfjell Vineyards, came to Scotland recently to host a tasting of his wines. The theme of the tasting was around organic and biodynamic farming and winemaking, as Odfjell practise these techniques, though interestingly, without seeking certification.
Odfjell is a Norwegian family name. Shipping company owner Dan Odfjell set the business up 25 years ago after "falling in love with Chile," according to Arnaud. Born in Bergen, Mr Odfjell "could not resist the attraction of the austral sun in this Virgilian setting," apparently, and so the project began with the purchase of vineyard land in the Maipo valley, and then further south in Curico and Colchagua too.
Arnaud says that "From the beginning, sustainability was a concept at the heart of Odfjell. We take a very long term view of business: we want to sell, but we are not in a rush." Arnaud goes on to say that Odfjell is considered a boutique winery in Chile. They have strong export sales to Brazil and the USA, but everything is made in "relatively limited" quantities. Old Vine Carignan has become a speciality, and Arnaud talks of a small group of wineries becoming specialised in the grape, and beginning to work together to promote Carignan as potentially Chile's most interesting variety. In fact, Odfjell's specialisms are somewhat unusual for Chile, including Malbec and Syrah. "All we are trying to do," says Arnaud, "is produce wines with a real identity, reflecting each specific vineyard site."
Perhaps it was through his time having studied in Bordeaux, but Arnaud also has a soft spot for Merlot. But he says "There is no great Merlot in Chile. It is too warm and dry." And yet he is determined to make Chile's first Merlot-dominated 'icon' wine: "It's a complicated grape to work with. You have a very short window to pick in this climate but one of our big projects is to make a very high level Merlot for Chile."
Though Arnaud is clearly serious about wishing to express his Chilean varieties and terroirs, the company is clearly quite attuned to the marketplace too. On the subject of oak, Arnaud says "We are using less and less oak because the journalists say that is what people demand," though he goes on to say "But I am not sure the public agrees - at a certain level they want to smell and taste oak in a premium wine." He also employs spinning cone technology to reduce alcohol, but only in wines destined for certain markets that are particularly sensitive to high levels of alcohol. "It does lower quality a little, so for other markets we are picking a little earlier to lower alcohol by just half to one degree, which is enough."
Having discussed the mechanics of biodynamic farming for some time, it became obvious that Arnaud takes a very pragmatic approach, convinced by organic farming and some of the homeopathic treatments employed in biodynamism, but less sure about some of the more esoteric practices (cow's horns, stag's bladders, etc). It did still come as something of a surprise that the wines were not certified bioydynamic or organic, but Arnaud's answer to that was equally pragmatic: "We are not Demeter certified because it costs 2% of the invoice," he says, a price that I presume is one step too far in these days of squeezed margins.
Odfjell's wines are very good. They are wines that for me mostly lie in the upper-middle ground of quality, extremely well made, some very interesting, and representing good value for money. I am not sure that any of them speak with the truly distinctive voice that Odfjell is striving for, but the range and specialisms of this estate are fascinating and it is a name to watch.

Odfjell Vineyards, Armador Merlot 2010, Chile
Armador is the entry level range. From Maipo, this has a lovely, deep, sonorous nose with chocolaty tones, a gentle note of game and earthiness. Nice light and juiciness on the palate, with good balance given by the gentle freshness alongside hints of mocha and plum. 87/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Armador Carmenère 2011, Chile
From Maipo, and to contrast with the next Carmenère, harvested at 12 tons/hectare. Nicely spicy and chocolaty. Plenty of fruit that is cassis and plum, spice and mocha notes too. The palate has a similar juiciness and freshness to the Merlot, but there's a tobacco and smoky quality to the plum and earth that is attractive. 87/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Orzada Carmenère 2011, Chile
Orzada is a level above Armador in the range. From Maule, this Carmenère is harvested at just 6 tons/hectare. Much more cedar, spice and old world earthiness and hints of game here. Beautifully juicy in the mouth, a firm liquorice edge, the whole picture more structured and serious. 89/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Armador Syrah 2008, Chile
From Maipo. Floral and ripe, with lots of kirsch and cassis, hints of bacon fat too, all very authentic and an attractive Syrah expression. On the palate it has sweet fruit, that juicy mouth-watering glugability. Again very well made, and slips down so easily (even with 14.5 abv). 88/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Armador Cabernet Sauvignon 2011, Chile
From Maipo. Lovely nose, a touch of green, a touch of earth and leafiness, with good, ripe black fruit beneath. The palate has delicious rounded juiciness, nice chocolate and spice to the tannins. 87/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Orzada Cabernet Sauvignon 2009, Chile
From Colchagua. More minty and espresso ripeness and richness, a really big, full-fruited wine, big in aroma and flavour, a blast of chocolate and great depth of black berries. The tannins are big and dry, with lots of dry, savoury depth. 89-90/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Orzada Cabernet Franc 2011, Chile
From Maule. Quite minty, quite deep, with a touch of herbal aspect and a rolling, juicy fruitiness. There is a herbaceous, slightly green character and a big, meaty, dry personality that is powerful, but the sweetness really comes through. 89/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Orzada Carignan 2006, Chile
From Maule and the Tres Esquinas vineyard which has 100-year-old vines, worked by horses. Beautiful nose, very deep and resonant, with a wonderful cocoa and spice-dusted deep fruit. The wine still shows plenty of toasty, full oak, but there is a broad-chested depth married to a sinewy, firm, tight acid and tannin structure. Massive stuff, very spicy, perhaps a touch raisiny? 90/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Orzada Carignan 2008, Chile
Lovely depth, the oak seems a little less pronounced, the serious, meaty depth of the wine allied to a more juicy freshness of the fruit. This just has more edge than the 2006, a more vital, spicy juiciness and lovely balance and length. 91/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Orzada Carignan 2010, Chile
More subtle oak again, with a nice sense of fat and ripe black fruit but an edge of grippiness and cedar. Fine tannin and spice and has that juicy liquorice quality. Fresh and very delicious. 90/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Orzada Carignan 2011, Chile
Much more pure fruit, lots of ripe cherry and blackcurrant black fruit. Superb freshness, clarity and length. A real sense of purity and fruit concentration. Marvellous balance and a very natural feeling of intensity. 92/100.
Odfjell Vineyards, Odfjell 2007, Chile
Sumptuous nose on the flagship wine, 100% Malbec from the Lontue Valley and 50-year-old vines. The sheer depth of ripe, fat black fruit impresses, with edges of tobacco, cocoa and cedar, a gently wisping incense. The palate has a huge silkiness and smoothness, both the texture of the wine and the refinement of the tannins. Delicious and huge natural concentration and presence. 93/100.

Movies I Want To See
So I decided there was a load of movies that I've never seen, and that I should. I also decided there was a load of movies I think I've never seen, but in fact have. There's also a load of movies I'd love to see again, but I keep forgetting about them.
To the rescue, the ever wonderful – Remember The Milk. I made a list of all the movies I'd like to see – either because I've never seen them, think I've never seen them, or just fancied watching them again. Some of them are obscure weird ones my brother-in-law suggested. Some of them are weird ones I suggested. And some of them are so awful they're good.
I'll let you decide which are which. Oh, and there are probably duplicates. There's a reason I use Remember The Milk!
Here's a feed from the Remember The Milk tasklist I made. For more listy goodness, you can visit the full page.

Piper has apparently very quietly been sold to one of the
world's richest men ... the Sultan of Brunei. The previous owner
... Singapore-based investment holding company Imprimis
... says on its website "We divested our interests in Piper
Aircraft and Piper Capital in October 2011."
The revelation comes just after Piper went to the Indian River
County government
seeking relief from repayment of some
incentives it was offered when it opened its Vero
Beach plant in 2008. The sale to the Sultan was not mentioned in
the request to re-open negotiations on the incentive package.
VeroNews.com reports that in response to an e-mail, Imprimis
managing partner Stephen Berger would only say that "Piper is owned
by the Government of Brunei." He later said in a prepared statement
that all of the management rights and equity interests had been
transferred to the Brunei Finance Ministry. Berger also resigned as
Chairman of Piper Aircraft Inc.
The changes apparently occurred as Piper was shuffling its top
management in mid October. Simon Caldecott replaced Geoffery Berger
(Stephen's brother) as CEO, and EVP Randy Groom left the company.
In an interview
with ANN, Caldecott indicated he was not at
liberty to say what had led to the latest top management
reorganization. Shortly thereafter, the plug was pulled on the
Piper Altaire jet project.
Indian River County Administrator Joe Baird told the paper that
he is not worried about the company being owned by the Government
of Brunei. He said that he'd be far more concerned if the new owner
was not a resource-rich county like the oil-producing

Don't expect the durability and bomb-proofness of MSR groundhog stakes. I used these in the desert sand and one broke with not that much force. I will be babying the remaining ones since they do do the job well once you get them in.
I've used these in snow and sand when there's nothing else to anchor to. They work very well in soft and semi-consolidated snow with minimal effort to place and they freeze in solidly. Much faster than burying stuff sack anchors. I've used them in rocky pumice "sand" on cascade volcanoes and they hold well, but I don't know of they have enough profile to anchor in something like fine beach sand. Durability was only an issue in the sand, where accidentally stepping on one bent it back about 90 degrees. And once bent, they are very hard to straighten without tools. I don't think they would take much of a pounding in harder ground or ice and I hesitate even to mash them down with my boot. But for lightweight aluminum, the design is about as strong as you can make it.

Celebrate Krishna's Eternal Song
By Vaisesika Dasa
This year, Gita Jayanti, the anniversary of Lord Sri Krishna's speaking the Bhagavad-Gita to Sri Arjuna, falls on Sunday, December 23rd.
For those whose lives have been forever improved by meeting Lord Krishna personally in the pages of the Gita, Gita Jayanti is not only a day of celebration but also a chance to express their gratitude. And the best way to do so is to share the Gita with others. Krishna Himself says, "There is no servant in this world more dear to Me than he, nor will there ever be one more dear." (Bg. 18.69)
The Gita teaches the essence of spiritual knowledge, purely and succinctly, in a way that anyone – in any situation of life – can practically apply its instruction and wisdom. And since Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, resides within the heart of every living being, He is always there to help the reader understand the Gita's profound message.
Many people in the world are innocent; and when they hear the message of the Gita from a devotee, they at once embrace it and attain perfection.
Krishna says, "Again there are those who, although not conversant in spiritual knowledge, begin to worship the Supreme Person upon hearing about Him from others. Because of their tendency to hear from authorities, they also transcend the path of birth and death." (Bg. 13.26)
More than ever before, people need the common sense and elegance of the Gita. Why? The modern media daily brings us foul rumors, incendiary disputes, and scenes of massacre. And a popular scientist has proclaimed, "The human race is just chemical scum on a moderate sized planet . . ." (Stephen Hawking, interview 1994).
It seems that the public demands these things—at least some studies suggest that they do. And news anchors across the world have come to count on the fact that people have developed an insatiable appetite for calumny and the gory details of tragic events.
As people disclose the acrimony and conflict that trouble their hearts in tens of millions of daily blogs, YouTube clips, Facebook postings, and interviews in the 24-hour news cycle, the resultant din is a toxic outpouring of malignant sound that flows into the ears of the innocent masses, leading the world's population into anxiety, despair, and mental illness.
The delicate human ear requires Krishna's soothing voice in the Gita to clarify the heart and fortify the intellect.
Even five thousand years after Lord Krishna's departure from this world, "the Bhagavad-gita can be consulted in all critical times, not only for solace from all kinds of mental agonies, but also for the way out of great entanglements which may embarrass one in some critical hour." (SB 1.15.27, purport)
Lord Caitanya exalts the Gita to Srila Sanatana Gosvami: "Kåñëa is so merciful that simply by aiming His instructions at Arjuna, He has given protection to the whole world." (Cc Madhya 22.56)
The Gita issues from the beautiful lotus mouth of Lord Sri Krishna, our best friend and eternal benefactor. And as that message passes through the pen of Krsna's empowered representative, Srila A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the Bhagavad-gita "As It Is" becomes all the more relishable.
As Gita Jayanti approaches, please read the Gita, remember the Gita, give the Gita.
Humbly in service,
Vaisesika Dasa
One Response to "Celebrate Krishna's Eternal Song"
pustakrishna says : Log in to Reply
Vaisesika das Prabhu is an empowered and 'consistently consistent' bhakta. I once read something that Confucius said, paraphrasing, 'the worst thing about a man is to be inconsistent or unpredictable". Vaisesika Prabhu is definitely predictable. Even in the confusing years of the 1980s when ISKCON had undergone many a crisis in leadership, Vaisesika Prabhu remained a dedicated distributor of Srila Prabhupad's books, even when living as a householder in a community some distance away from any formal temple. What better way to introduce someone to Krishna than through a pure devotee directly, a transparent link to Krishna, ie the translations and purports that have been offered to the world by Srila Prabhupad.
na ca mat-sthani bhutani, pasya me yogam aisvaram
bhuta-bhrn na ca bhuta-stho, mamatma bhuta-bhavanah (BG 9.5)
"And yet everything that is created does not rest in Me. Behold My mystic opulence! Although I am the maintainer of all living entities and although I am everywhere, I am not part of this cosmic manifestation, for My Self is the very source of creation."
God, the Creator, does exist, beyond His creation which is also dependent upon and within Him. It is the highest arrogance, and the dead-end of terminal illusion when jiva souls declare their identity as God…mayayapahrta-jnana (7.15). We can only know these things because Krishna has revealed them to us through His mercy, and the Bhagavad Gita is His lifeboat for the thoughtful conditioned souls.
So, all glories to Sri Krishna. All Glories to His Bhagavad GIta. All glories to the dedicated distributors of Srila Prabhupad's Bhagavad Gita for they are very, very dear to Sri Sri Guru Gauranga!! Pusta Krishna das

It's a nice change to have a pope who isn't working hand-in-hand with the CIA while holding inquisitions into nuns and priests who put the courage of their convictions into practice by helping people.

Peter- '' OUR" pontiff ? Pontiff has a new PR Team in place and they have been successful in changing the agenda. What sex scandals? Corruption and coverup in Vatican? Vatican Bank reform? The very first announce by the Vatican on Nov 11 regarding the devastation left by typhoon Haiyan in the Phillippines was a DONATION BY THE POPE OF $150,00.to be transferred not to the international red cross or other charity but to local catholic churches for their distribution. The donation, the vatican communique concluded, is meant to be the "first and immediate concrete expression of the sentiments of spiritual closeness and paternal encouragement of the Supreme Pontiff towards the people and territories devastated by the floorings." WHOW! How low can Peter's Pense go ! !It just another Papal Bull!

I find it amusing that the so-called "religious right" are so offended by a religious leader actually stating the obvious and throwing their own teachings (which they have twisted to their own benefit) back in their faces. Looks good on them. Maybe Limbaugh, Palin, Santorum and the rest of them can learn something from the Pope.

The root cause of economic disparity lies in the fact that our economic system is a for- profit business. People who can afford to pay for goods and services have access to them and people who can't afford to pay for the aforementioned goods and services do without them. The only exception being goods or services paid for by Governments, as part of the so-called social safety net, which includes: Social Assistance, Family Allowance, and OAS). The oil-fueled economic prosperity being experienced in this Province in recent times; has resulted in those who have already have money, obtaning more money, while those of us who have always struggled financially, are faced with the task of finding the money to cover increases in the cost of basic necessities of life such as food, clothing, and adequate housing.

Ed, I am not a very Religious person. I criticize the value of organized churches and their leadership. Your application of the modern-day euphemisms regarding left vs right just reinforces the ignorant polarizations of simple ideologies. Either/Or. Black and White. One side (if you identify with it) is deified, while the other is demonized. But as I said I am not a theologian. But I can identify that Christianity is based on many values that simply threaten corporate culture. Did Jesus (in the stories) condemn the temple and the golden calf and such? Is it not stories of the Good Samaritan taught in Sunday Schools? Believe me when I say I think the Pope is full of crap and a culture inflated focus of misinformation and greed. BUT this time there are words that actually seem to be logical, sound, and based in the moral direction that I was, as a child, sold as the Christian idea - later to be alienated by the truths of corruption and fallacy. The Pope and other leaders (not just the Dali Lama) need to start preaching the realities of humanity, and not perpetuation the greed and corruption. Finally a step towards something that I believe is what Christianity had sold out from for centuries.

Q: How do I get started with the TomTom Developer Portal?
A: Getting started is easy! Go to developer.tomtom.com and click the 'register' button to open an account. Once you are logged in, go to My Account to get your Map Toolkit API evaluation key! (Note that keys can take up to 24 hours to be approved.)
Q: What does it cost to get started?
A: Nothing! You can register and open an account, obtain our Map Toolkit evaluation API key, and access documentation, FAQs, and user forums for free. Once you have tested your application and determined it is ready for full-scale production you can contact a sales representative who will assist you with getting production API keys and estimating the cost of using our APIs in production mode.
Q: What kinds of API key are available through TomTom?
A: Currently there is just one kind of API key available through the Developer Portal:
- Map Toolkit: This is a collection of calls designed to allow developers to create applications around mapping, routing, and traffic. It includes extra calls such as Geocoding and Reverse Geocoding that are needed to support these functions. These calls can either be coded directly, or via the free Software Development Kits (SDKs) for JavaScript, iOS, or Android.
Q: What functions are included in the Map Toolkit?
A: TomTom's Map Toolkit includes the following key functions:
- Map Display – Our TomTom REST Tile API provides WMS style raster street map images pre-rendered at 18 zoom levels ranging from one global tile down to 40 square kilometer detailed map images. Each image is 256 x 256 pixels and corresponds with a position on an established zoom level grid system used by the WMS-C standard. Map tiles can be layered with routing and traffic tiles from the same interface and using the same grid system to create a compound display. These tiles can be called using either a zoom grid (TMS) or WMS-style calls. The TMS call is also documented in WMTS-compatible format.
- Routing – The TomTom Routing REST API provides point to point routing and route re-calculation using TomTom's established routing algorithms. Route calculation takes into account factors such as intermediate points, established traffic patterns, real-time conditions, and desired day and time to provide the best possible route, either for immediate departure (avoiding current traffic incidents) or for a future day and time (taking account of historic problem areas.) A textual description of the route is returned, localized by language, along with a list of coordinate points for the route and a TomTom RouteKey. The Route Key is used to generate route tiles (the graphic image overlay of the route) via the Tile API.
- Traffic – The TomTom Traffic Model REST API and the Tile API combine to provide traffic incident and delay information to enrinch your map view. The Traffic Model API returns detailed information about traffic jams and traffic-related incidents. Details include the type, duration, significance, and distance of the delay. In areas where our real time traffic feed is available, the model is updated every 2 minutes. A traffic model ID is provided which can be used with our Tile API to render unique icons showing– incidents such as accidents and road work, as well as highlighting road segments to represent traffic jams and slowdowns. TomTom Traffic is a live service that provides a valuable enrichment for your mapping applications: the very latest traffic information at a glance.
- Geocoding – TomTom provides API's for both free text forward geocoding and reverse geocoding as part of its support for routing and map display. Free text forward geocoding allows users to enter an unstructured address, place or point of interest and find its location. Reverse geocoding does the reverse: for a given pair of coordinates, the user is given the nearest specified type of location in the map data (for example, an address or town/village).
- Viewport – This API can be called by client applications when the viewport changes (zooming, panning, going to a location, showing a route). The request should contain the bounding box of the visible area (the viewport). It returns data that is useful in other API calls: map names, software version information, tile versions, the current Traffic Model ID and copyright IDs. The Traffic Model ID is used by other APIs to retrieve traffic information for further processing. The tile version can be used in the Integer Tile API calls.
Q: How do I get an API key?
A: Go to developer.tomtom.com and click the 'register' button to open an account. Once you are logged in, go to My Account to get your Map Toolkit API evaluation key! (Note that keys can take up to 24 hours to be approved.)
Q: How am I notified when changes are made to the Map Toolkit API?
A: Registered users are informed of breaking changes via email. The documentation for each API also has a "Release Notes" section, if you miss an update.
Q: What Mobile platforms does TomTom support?
A: IOS v5.0, Android API level 8 (v2.2x) and newer.
Q: What SDKs are available through TomTom?
A: JavaScript, IOS and Android SDK's are available for download through our portal. There are also separate FAQs for the mobile platform SDKs.
Q: How do I transition my application from "Prototype" to "Production"?
A: An application can be easily transitioned from "Prototype" to "Production" by replacing evaluation API keys with production API keys. Contact an account manager for assistance with this process.
Q: Can I deploy TomTom functionality to my own servers?
A: No, you cannot at this time deploy TomTom functionality to your own servers. However, your application can use TomTom's functionality through the Map Toolkit API.
Q: What is the difference between geocoding and reverse geocoding? What is "free text geocoding"?
A: Geocoding is the process of taking in address or location information (such as "10 Downing Street, London" and turning it into a set of geographic coordinates. The input information can either be a single text field that the geocoder has to parse ("free text") or can be broken into pre-labeled fields ("structured").
Reverse geocoding does the reverse: if a set of coordinates are entered, then the nearest address or geographic name is returned.
Q: How frequently are map tiles updated?
A: Tiles are constantly being updated with minor corrections submitted by TomTom users via the MapShare system. The map data used by the APIs is entirely updated approximately once per quarter.
Q: How frequently is traffic information updated?
A: Traffic information is refreshed every two minutes. Each refresh of the traffic information has a unique Traffic Model ID, which is used in calls to the traffic tile API, Routing API, and Traffic Model API.
Q: How do I ask a question, report a bug, or request a change to a Map Toolkit API?
A: Go to the forum. Look at the other posts to see if your question has already been asked—you may find the answer there already! If not, feel free to make a post. Note that all posts will be reviewed by a moderator before being displayed.
