Deep red in colour, the nose is rich with perfectly ripened dark blackberry, elderberry and cassis fruit. The palate is medium bodied, but intense with coffee and vanilla characters adding to the dark fruit. The finish is long and textured with fine, grainy grape tannins. This wine will reward careful cellaring and we recommend decanting before drinking.
Learn MoreThe Blend has a long and proud history of over-delivering, but I can't recollect any vintage bettering this one. The colour is particularly bright, the flavours totally delicious, running through blackberry, raspberry, blackcurrant and even a little cherry; the tannins and oak do no more than complete the picture.

July 2014
The following is a compendium of news reports over the preceding month that may be of interest to our AG offices who are dealing with DOE sites or general nuclear waste issues. Neither the National Association of Attorneys General nor the National Attorneys General Training & Research Institute expresses a view as to the accuracy of news accounts, nor as to the position expounded by the authors of the hyperlinked articles.
On a proposal to accept used nuclear fuel from Germany for processing and disposition at the Savannah River Site (SRS), the DOE signed a notice of intent to prepare an environmental assessment. The assessment will analyze potential environmental impacts associated with transporting, storing, and processing fuel at the SRS as well as exploring disposition alternatives for the highly-enriched uranium that will be separated from fuel kernels.
The DOE awarded a $25.7 million task order to North Wind, an Idaho Falls, Idaho, company, for cleanup at the Energy Technology Engineering Center (ETEC) at the Santa Susanna Field Laboratory in Canoga Park, California. North Wind will be responsible for a number of tasks associated with environmental monitoring and deactivation and decommissioning activities.
DOE awarded Dr. James Marra its D.T. Rankin Award for his work as an investigator at DOE�s Savannah River National Laboratory. Dr. Marra was recognized for his leadership in a division that focuses on studying ceramic technologies for waste management and environmental remediation.
Storage, Recycling, or Disposal of Radioactive & Hazardous Waste
The Mississippi Public Service Commission (PSC) unanimously passed a resolution requesting that the federal government consider an alternative location (outside of Mississippi) for consideration as a national repository. The Commission is the initial state agency to oppose the idea of Mississippi being considered as a permanent storage site and instead calls for the federal government to reconsider Yucca Mountain as originally planned.
The Director of the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control has threatened to take action against the DOE after it issued a plan that allegedly fails to comply with every agreed upon waste milestone related to cleanup efforts, which amounts to nearly $200 million in penalties through 2016 alone.
Terrel J. Spears was named deputy manager of the DOE�s River Operations Office at the SRS. In this position, Mr. Spears will oversee the approximate $1 billion budget for both operating and construction affairs.
United States Senators Tom Udall and Martin Heinrich requested that President Obama modify and increase his originally proposed 2015 budget for WIPP to reopen according to recommendations made by the Accident Investigations Boards following the radiation release that caused it to close. Subsequent to this letter, Senate appropriators set aside an additional $102 million in funds to assist in WIPP�s reopening, and the Senate Energy and Water Appropriations Subcommittee voted to permit $323 million in spending on WIPP�s FY 2015 budget.
Due to the closure of WIPP, a physics experiment that studies neutrinos and decay (via a detector that is housed very deep in the geological repository) was halted; the scientists had collected two years of data at the time of the radioactive release, but they expected to continue the experiment and record improved findings for another two to three years since the detector was being upgraded at the time of the accident.
DOE continues to investigate the cause of the WIPP radiation leak and are focusing their attention on 6 drums from the Los Alamos National Laboratory that are currently housed in West Texas and possibly explosive. Although scientists have been unable to reproduce the event to ascertain fully the cause of the accident, they have noted that the breached barrel is from a waste stream at Los Alamos that has a very high acid level.
Dispute resolution negotiations between Washington State officials and the DOE concerning compliance with settlement agreements and cleanup activities at the Hanford site, negotiations came to an end without a clear resolution being reached. Since an agreement could not be reached during the 40-day negotiation period, the next step for state officials may be legal action, but the State has not stated whether it intends to take such action.
Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) has assembled a team of experts to review the work at Hanford, at the request of Washington River Protection Solutions (WRPS), the DOE contractor responsible for management and cleanup at the Hanford site. Among the team�s responsibilities will be to assess the chemical vapor exposure situation, review the industrial hygiene program for chemical vapor exposure, and provide recommendations for enhancements to the WRPS programs and practices to eliminate or minimized worker exposure. The team will also issue a draft report at the end of summer and a final report in December, both of which will be made available to the public.
Workers excavated 2.2 million tons of material from waste sites near Hanford�s D Reactor, eliminating what is believed to be the main source of chromium contamination to the Columbia River. The contamination at these 100-D waste sites was caused by sodium dichromate leaks during reactor operations in the 1940s and 1960s. Project Director Mark French says he believes the cleanup of these sites has removed the �mother lode� of chromium contamination in the reactor area.
Following a DOE directed survey offered to Hanford employees between December 2013 and March 2014 on their comfort levels towards their superiors in general versus senior management officials, the results demonstrated that 30% of employees feel comfortable questioning their superiors while 65% believe that they can question senior management decisions. Additional statistical findings were highlighted in a report in addition to recommendations on promoting safety at the site.
A government programs manager for DOE�s Richland Operation Office in Washington has proposed that a 600-mile reservation should be open to the public, as it is anticipated that most of the site should be clean by the end of next year and could become a tourist attraction. It is anticipated that DOE will hold future meetings and receive public input on how the land should be used.
The DOE has released a new plan to manage waste at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). Work at INL is currently being done under two contracts, both of which will expire in September 2015. Under the new plan, the work will be split into four separate contracts, valued anywhere from $25 million to $1 billion. The DOE will begin to meet with prospective bidders later this year, and will award the bids during the fourth quarter of 2015.
Demolition of the last of 32 inactive facilities at the Paducah Site is ahead of schedule, in part, due to efficiency measures and extra funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. Among the efficiencies used in the demolition are the use of larger shears and equipment designed for demolition, directly loading covered railcars on location to transport materials, and having a crew on-site to perform preventative maintenance. The demolition, which just began on May 13, is already roughly one-third complete.
To assist re-vegetation efforts at the Moab Uranium Mill Tailings Remedial Action Project site, a contractor initiated two Italian honeybee hives at the site after noticing a lack of natural pollinators. It is anticipated that the bees will increase pollination this year, and, starting next year, that they will produce 30-40 pounds of honey, in addition to helping with pollination in the area.
Kurion, Inc. has hired Matthew McCormick as the Project Director for the deployment of the new Kurion Mobile Processing System (KMPS) at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. In addition to being the manager of Richland Operations for the DOE at the Hanford site for the last 4 years, McCormick has had executive leadership roles at the Savannah River Site and the Rocky Flats site. With Kurion, McCormick will be responsible for the commissioning and operational oversight of the KMPS at the Fukushima Plant.
This month the Michigan Senate unanimously passed a bill and a series of resolutions opposing the proposed building of a Deep Geological Repository in Kincardine, Ontario, near Lake Huron. The various resolutions passed called on the International Joint Commission, President Obama, the Secretary of State, and Congress, among others, to assist in halting or evaluating plans for the nuclear waste dump by Canadian officials. The bill also prohibits nuclear waste from being imported to Michigan. There will be public hearings scheduled to begin in September and last for 2 weeks. Among many other things, the hearings will look at the methodology used to determine potential adverse environmental effects, particularly focusing on any lessons that may be learned from the February 2014 radiation leak at WIPP.

Link Speed by Location
Link Speed by Location offers valuable insight into the working throughput of the router at specific locations.
At the 2.4 GHz 20 MHz band, the AirStation came in at 144 mbps in the first three locations; connection rate drops to 130 mbps in the last two locations.
Moving to 40 MHz, the Buffalo mirrored the D-Link in connection rates across all locations.
The 5 GHz 20 MHz band allowed the Buffalo to connect at 176 Mbps at Locations One and Two. Following this, the router dropped off severely with Locations Three and Four; eventually returning to 176 Mbps at Location Five.
5 GHz 40 MHz was able to connect at 400Mbps for the first two locations; dropping off to 200 mbps at Location Three and 50 mbps at Location Four. The speed returned at Location Five.
Firing up the 5 GHz 80 MHz band, we have the AirStation connecting at 867 mbps, dropping to 600 mbps at Location Three, and ending at 80 mbps at Location Four. Location Five showed the speed to jump back up to 867 mbps.

UPDATE: Grenade firing preceded shots in hostage slaying

Phyllis Macay and Bob Riggle were aboard the yacht Quest with its owners,
Scott and Jean Adam of California.
By JASON STRAZIUSO, MALKHADIR M. MUHUMED | Associated Press
Published: February 22, 2011
Updated: February 22, 2011 - 3:28 PM
NAIROBI, Kenya - A pirate fired a rocket-propelled grenade at a U.S. Navy
destroyer shadowing a hijacked yacht with four Americans aboard today.
Then gunfire erupted, the military said. U.S. special forces rushed to the
yacht only to find the four Americans fatally wounded.
The experienced yacht enthusiasts from California and Washington are the
first Americans killed by Somali pirates since the start of attacks off
East Africa several years ago. One of the American couples on board had
been sailing around the world since 2004 handing out Bibles.
Their deaths appeared to underscore an increasingly brutal and aggressive
shift by pirates in their treatment of hostages.
Killing hostages "has now become part of our rules," said a pirate who
identified himself as Muse Abdi and referred to last week's sentencing of
a pirate to 33 years in prison for the 2009 attack on the U.S. cargo
vessel the Maersk Alabama.
"From now on, anyone who tries to rescue the hostages in our hands will
only collect dead bodies," he said. "It will never ever happen that
hostages are rescued and we are hauled to prison."
Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton strongly condemned the killings,
saying in a statement that the slayings were "deplorable" and underscored
the need for international cooperation in fighting the scourge of piracy
in waters off the Horn of Africa.
Pirates had hijacked the 58-foot yacht Quest south of Oman on Friday.
Since then, four U.S. warships and sky-high drones shadowed the vessel's
movement as pirates tried to sail it to the Somali shore. U.S. officials
negotiated with the captors via radio.
But at 8 a.m. East Africa time today, a rocket-propelled grenade was fired
from the Quest at the USS Sterett, a guided-missile destroyer 600 yards
(meters) away. The RPG missed and almost immediately afterward small arms
fire was heard coming from the yacht, said Vice Adm. Mark Fox, commander
of the U.S. 5th Fleet in Bahrain.
Several pirates then appeared on deck with their hands up. U.S. naval
forces boarded the vessel and tried to provide lifesaving care to the
Americans, but they died, Fox said. No U.S. forces were injured or killed.
Thirteen pirates were captured and detained Tuesday, and two other pirates
had boarded the USS Sterett on Monday to negotiate, Fox said.
A member of a U.S. special operations force killed one of the pirates with
a knife, Fox said. A second pirate was also killed, and the bodies of two
other pirates were discovered on board, bringing to 19 the total number of
pirates involved. The U.S. military didn't say how those two died and it
was not known if the pirates had fought among themselves.
Pirates have increased attacks off the coast of East Africa in recent
years despite an international flotilla of warships dedicated to
protecting vessels and stopping the pirate assaults.
But the conventional wisdom in the shipping industry had been that Somali
pirates are businessmen looking for a multimillion-dollar ransom payday,
not insurgents looking to terrorize people.
"We have heard threats against the lives of Americans before but it
strikes me as being very, very unusual why they would kill hostages
outright," said Graeme Gibbon-Brooks, the head of Dryad Maritime
Intelligence, adding that the pirates must realize that killing Americans
would invite a military response.
President Barack Obama, who was notified about the deaths at 4:42 a.m.
Washington time, had authorized the military on Saturday to use force in
case of an imminent threat to the hostages, said White House spokesman Jay
The Quest was home to Jean and Scott Adam, of Marina del Rey, near Los
Angeles. The two had been sailing around the world since December 2004.
Phyllis Macay and Bob Riggle, of Seattle, Washington, had recently joined
the Adams.
"Great sailors, good people. They were doing what they wanted to do, but
that's small comfort in the face of this," said Joe Grande of the Seattle
Singles Yacht Club, where Riggle and Macay were members.
Around Christmas the Quest joined the Blue Water Rally, an
around-the-world race. But race organizers said the Quest recently left
the race despite what Fox said were warnings about the dangers of sailing
in Horn of Africa region.
The Blue Water Rally said in a statement Tuesday that though yachtsmen are
discouraged from sailing in the region, the only other choices are to sail
around the stormy and dangerous tip of South Africa or sail back across
the Pacific.
The Adams were skilled and experienced sailors, having traveled from
Panama in 2005 to Fiji in 2007 and Cambodia last year. They most recently
sailed from Thailand to Sri Lanka and India, and were on their way to Oman
when captured.
Motivated by million-dollar ransoms, pirates have become increasingly bold
in their attacks despite a flotilla of international warships patrolling
the waters off East Africa. The last time pirates kidnapped a U.S. citizen
- during the 2009 hijacking of the Maersk Alabama - Navy sharpshooters
killed two pirates and rescued the ship's captain.
But today's bloody events are apt to leave U.S. military planners in a
quandary: Do they go after the pirates harder? Do they attack their bases
on Somalia's ungoverned shores? One maritime expert said it's too early to
"This is a first," said Gibbon-Brooks, the analyst. "We don't know if the
situation is related to a straight execution. We don't know if it was
related to an attempt to break free. We don't know if it was related to an
Gibbon-Brooks said the killings were "extremely unwise" by the Somalis,
and that the deaths threaten what has been a successful and lucrative
business model.
Two days before the hijacking, a New York court sentenced a pirate to 33
years in prison for the 2009 attack on the Maersk Alabama, a U.S. cargo
vessel. A pirate in Somalia told the AP last week that pirates were more
likely to attack Americans because of the sentencing.
"It's a black day for us and also the Americans, but they lost bigger than
us," a pirate who said his name was Bile Hussein said. "If they still want
a solution and safety for their citizens in the oceans, let them release
our men they arrested."
Only minutes before the military announced that the four Americans had
died, a Somali pirate told AP by phone that if the yacht were attacked,
"the hostages will be the first to go."
"Some pirates have even suggested rigging the yacht with land mines and
explosives so as the whole yacht explodes with the first gunshot," said
the pirate, who gave his name as Abdullahi Mohamed, who claimed to be a
friend of the pirates holding the four Americans.
Pirates - who currently hold 30 ships and more than 660 hostages -
typically win a multimillion ransom for releasing their captives, a huge
sum that is shared among investors and pirates. The money is often spent
on alcohol, drugs and prostitutes. One ransom paid last year was reported
as $9.5 million. Most ransoms are worth several million dollars.
Given that typical financial motivation, Tuesday's killings left several
unanswered questions, such as whether the pirates, being trailed by the
Americans, believed there was no way to avoid spending years in a U.S.
prison, or if the American forces spooked the pirates by approaching the
yacht, or even if the hostages had tried to retake the yacht from the
The military said U.S. forces have been monitoring the Quest for about
three days, since shortly after the Friday attack. Four Navy warships were
involved, including the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise.
Mohamed, the pirate in Somalia, told AP that pirate leaders had been
expecting the yacht to make landfall soon.
Five cars full of pirates were headed toward the pirate dens of Eyl and
Gara'ad in anticipation of the Quest reaching land Monday, he said. Had
the four reached land, they may have faced a long hostage ordeal like the
388 days that the British sailing couple Paul and Rachel Chandler spent in
the hands of pirates. The two were released in November.
"This incident is a clear message and alarm that it's time the world
community quickly steps up to stop these pirate criminal activities. They
should be treated mercilessly," said Gen. Yusuf Ahmed Khayr, the security
minister in the northern Somalia region of Puntland, a pirate haven.
The Adams ran a Bible ministry and had been distributing Bibles to schools
and churches in remote villages in areas including the Fiji Islands,
Alaska, New Zealand, Central America and French Polynesia.
At the Seattle Singles Yacht Club, friend Hank Curci said Riggle and Macay
were carrying out a lifelong dream.
"Now that they're gone it's just difficult for us to accept because it's
like having a family member killed," he said.

Pirates add ammo, men to ships after 4 US deaths
By JASON STRAZIUSO and MALKHADIR M. MUHUMED
The Associated Press
Wednesday, February 23, 2011; 12:27 PM
NAIROBI, Kenya -- Pirates in Somalia said Wednesday they are ferrying
ammunition and men to the 30 hijacked vessels still under their control,
and they threatened to kill more captives following the violent end to a
hostage standoff that left four Americans dead.
The U.S. military said that 15 pirates detained after the Americans were
slain Tuesday could face trial in the United States.
The military, FBI and Justice Department are working on the next steps
for those pirates, said Bob Prucha, a spokesman for U.S. Central Command
in Florida. The Somalis are currently being held on the aircraft carrier
USS Enterprise, which is in the waters off East Africa.
A pirate aboard the hijacked yacht Quest on Tuesday fired a
rocket-propelled grenade at a U.S. warship that had responded to last
Friday's hijacking. Then gunfire broke out aboard the yacht. When Navy
special forces reached the Quest, they found the four American hostages
had been shot and killed.
The FBI is investigating the killings of Phyllis Macay and Bob Riggle of
Seattle, Washington, and Jean and Scott Adam of Marina del Rey, near Los
Angeles, who had made their home aboard their 58-foot yacht Quest since
December 2004.
The Adams handed out Bibles around the world, but a pirate who gave his
name only as Hassan told The Associated Press on Wednesday that played
no factor. He said the pirates reacted violently after the U.S. forces
blocked the yacht's path.
"We had plans to either take the hostages to the inland mountains or to
move onto other hijacked ships because we knew that the U.S. Navy was
serious about carrying out a rescue operation," Hassan said. "The
hostages pleaded with us not to harm them or take them to dangerous
places. They cried when we captured them ... and asked us to release
them because they were too old and couldn't endure captivity."
The killings came less than a week after a Somali pirate was sentenced
to more than 33 years in prison by a New York court for the 2009
hijacking of the Maersk Alabama. That hijacking ended when Navy
sharpshooters killed two pirates holding the ship's American captain.
Pirates reacted angrily to the sentencing and have since vowed that they
will kill hostages before being captured during military raids and being
sent to face trial.
Pirates once were believed to be disgruntled and financially motivated
Somali fishermen angry that international trawlers were illegally
fishing Somalia's waters. Now criminal gangs dominate the piracy trade,
and have begun systematically torturing hostages, including locking them
in freezers.
"What we're seeing is that because of the business model the pirates
have adopted is so lucrative that you're now getting organized criminal
gangs involved as opposed to fishermen who just decided to have a go at
piracy," said Wing Commander Paddy O'Kennedy, spokesman for the European
Union's anti-piracy force.
"Criminal gangs are more violent than your average fisherman who's
turned to piracy," O'Kennedy said.
A pirate in Somalia who gave his name as Adowe Osman Ali said fellow
"soldiers" had ferried the reinforcements to hijacked ships in their
hands on Wednesday in a bid to deter more hostage rescue attempts. He
said after Tuesday's incident, captains of hijacked ships have been
ordered to tell navies not to approach or hostages would be killed.
"In the past, 20 or so soldiers used to guard every ship but now the
numbers are ranging between 60 and 70 soldiers," said Ali, a pirate in
the coastal village of Gara'ad.
"We are more alert than anytime before," he said. "In the past, we
allowed the foreign navies to approach us but now we have warned them to
not get nearer to us."
Piracy has plagued the shipping industry off East Africa for years, but
the violence used during the attacks - and the money demanded in ransoms
- have increased in recent months. Pirates now hold some 30 ships and
more than 660 hostages.
The average ransom now paid to pirates is in the $5 million range, a
huge leap from only three or four years ago when it was in the hundreds
of thousands of dollars, said Roger Middleton, a piracy expert at the
London-based think tank Chatham House. One ransom paid last year was
just shy of $10 million.
"It's really gone up, really an enormous amount," Middleton said. "If
you think you can get a $9.5 million ransom, I suppose the logic is that
you try any means possible to get there, and if that means scaring some
crews and owners more, I guess that's what you do," he said, alluding to
the recent reports of torture.
Industry experts warned Wednesday it's too soon to say whether the
Americans' deaths will require a wholesale change in the way the
shipping industry operates along with the militaries patrolling the Gulf
of Aden and Indian Ocean.
It's still not known publicly whether prompted a pirate to fire a
rocket-propelled grenade at a Navy war ship, and it's unclear whether
there was an internal pirate fight or if there had been a hostage escape
"We don't know what happened yesterday so we're not going to make any
knee-jerk decisions," O'Kennedy said. "But our policy remains the same.
Nothing is off the table. All options are open to us as a military
Pirates blamed the deaths of the American hostages on the U.S. Navy,
saying the pirates felt under attack.
"We warned them before that if we are attacked, there would be only dead
bodies," said a man who gave his name as Abdirahman Abdullahi Qabowsade.
"We have been killed and arrested illegally before, so we can't bear
with such attacks anymore. We will respond to any future attacks

Canon Rebel XSI, Canon 100 -400 mm
Banff Jasper Corridor, Alberta Canada
En-route from Banff to Jasper we pulled off into a campsite and I captured this wonderful view of this Rocky Crag. Tall and imposing it seemed to stand for the area. I was unable to fins a name for this mountain It's stark beauty and textures were amazing. The Rocky Mountains never fail to produce stunning views.
I am an amateur photographer from Sherwood Park, Alberta Canada.
Love scenery, wildlife and anything that catches my eye as being unique. Have a Canon Rebel XSI with a 100mm – 400mm Lens that allows me to get some wonderful captures!
Wonderful capture…wow they really stand out, so majestic Leslie
Many thanks Larry. I love the banner as always . Also thank you for the fave :>)) Leslie

Is this not Castle Mountain sis?
I have a Castle Mountain ready to upload too. Is this Gemini telling me to do so, LOL.
In any event, I love this, looks so very natural just like you are viewing from the naked eye.
No Sis this is Not Castle mountain it is closer to Jasper. We stopped at a lake and campsite on the left side of the highway and this was on the right side of the highway . I took this form the campground. I think you told me you had camped in there somehow ……… There is a fast running stream and then the lake at a foot of the mountain. Really frustrated that I can't place it. Thanks for trying to help :>)) Leslie

Off topic: The Annual Oscars Post
Continuing the tradition, my picks and yours for tonight's Oscar ceremony.
Best Picture
The Blind Side
District 9
An Education
The Hurt Locker
Inglorious Basterds
A Serious Man
Up in the Air
My Pick: This whole '10 nominees' thing was a pain; I actually saw six, one more than would be nominated in a normal year, but now only about half of the pool. "Precious" wasn't something I was interested in seeing based on what I heard of the subject matter, "An Education" didn't come to Eugene as far as I could tell, "A Serious Man" was a tough sell for the fiancee … and "The Hurt Locker" was just an egregious oversight. Tried to slip it in this week, but it didn't happen.
I enjoyed everything I saw. "Up," "Up in the Air" and "District 9" were nice and thought-provoking, while being entertaining at the same time. "The Blind Side" was better than I'd have expected. "Inglorious Basterds" had its moments, but like a lot of recent Tarantino, the dialogue wasn't consistently sharp enough to always hold my attention the way "Pulp Fiction" or "Reservoir Dogs" did. So I'm going with "Avatar." Saw it in 3D, though it was utterly amazing. Didn't quite blow me away the way "Lord of the Rings" did, but those guys had three movies to sell me on. The middle third of "Avater," in which the guy is exploring the new world and people, was jaw-dropping. I loved it.
Who Will Win: The Hurt Locker
Best Actor
Jeff Bridges, Crazy Heart
George Clooney, Up in the Air
Colin Firth, A Single Man
Morgan Freeman, Invictus
Jeremy Renner, The Hurt Locker
My Pick: Only saw two performances, those by Clooney and Freeman, and neither screamed out to me, 'greatest acting job ever.' I like Clooney, but this seemed like typical Clooney. Wishing I'd seen "Crazy Heart" for sure, because I'm thinking I'd be pulling hard for Jeff Bridges. And I'm not even one of those "Big Lebowski" fanboys; never seen it all the way through. Anyway, if I had to choose between the ones I saw, I'd go with Clooney.
Who Will Win: Bridges
Best Actress
Sandra Bullock, The Blind Side
Helen Mirren, The Last Station
Carey Mulligan, An Education
Gabourey Sidibe, Precious
Meryl Streep Julie & Julia
My Pick: Again I saw two, Bullock and Streep (yeah, seriously). I'm inclined to think they'd be the least likely winners here, except now I understand there's some buzz that Bullock might actually win. Never saw that coming. Streep's performance reminded me of Freeman's in the acting category; the person each played was so unique, it was hard not to see the performance as a caricature. Between the two I saw, I guess I'm surprised to say I'd go with Bullock.
Who Will Win: Sidibe(?)
Best Supporting Actor
Matt Damon, Invictus
Woody Harrelson, The Messenger
Christopher Plummer, The Last Station
Stanley Tucci, The Lovely Bones
Christoph Waltz, Inglorious Basterds
My Pick: This one's easy. Once again I saw two, Damon and Waltz. And the performance by Waltz, particularly that opening scene in the farm house where he's playing with his pipe, etc., was one of those where, once the scene ends, you realize you were holding your breath the whole time because it was so captivating. Easy call for me.
Who Will Win: Waltz
Best Supporting Actress
Penelope Cruz, Nine
Vera Farmiga, Up in the Air
Maggie Gyllenhaal, Crazy Heart
Anna Kendrick, Up in the Air
Mo'Nique, Precious
My Pick: Saw 2-of-5, sticking with the theme, both the women from "Up in the Air," Liked both performances; like Clooney's, they seemed effortless, in a good way. Between the two, I'll take Farmiga, though again I regret not seeing "Crazy Heart," because I'm a Gyllenhaal fan.
Who Will Win: Mo'Nique

Hello, I am the contest administrator from the Italian Institute of Photography. Thanks for submitting the photo to our "What does dreaming look like?" contest. To complete your participation in the contest, please write in the comments section here a description of why this photo represents or interprets dreaming. Best of luck!
@iif_milan : I really like the shadows in this photo. The stage was pretty brightly lit, but the hotshoe was broken on my Agfa Silette, and it was my first time using it, so I took these photos with long exposure. Being on stage performing music in front of an audience... really great dream, or really awful nightmare?
Fabulous, well done, v hard lighting conditions!

Cressida Elizabeth - Cressida is so much fun! I love it. Elizabeth feels a little boring with it, but Cressida Elizabeth is still beautiful, and I'd love to meet a little Cressida!
Juliet Eleanora - I'm not the hugest fan of Juliet (like the play, it feels overplayed and overrated), but objectively, it is beautiful. I like a lot of its nns (Juju, Lulu, Liet, Lettie, Jet, etc.). Eleanora doesn't seem to sit right with me. It doesn't quite feel gorgeous, but it feels like too much... something. I much prefer just Eleanor, although I don't love Juliet Eleanor, either. I'm not sure why I can't seem to get into it. It is a pretty combination, though.
Xanthe Isabelle - I love Xanthe--the fun "Z" sound; the Greekness of it; the option for Annie or Thea as a nn... it's just cool. And Isabelle is my favorite girls' name ever, so of course I love this!
Ophelia Beatrice - by far my favorite FN from your list, but I personally don't care for Beatrice. I just can't get into it. It seems hissy and boring and blah. (And Ophelia Beatrice is a lot of Shakespeare!). I do adore Ophelia, though!
Vesper Danielle - och, LOVE Vesper. I don't love Danielle (especially with Vesper--it sort of brings Vesper down, I think?), but it does work, and I could get behind it if it was honoring.
Xanthe Isabelle got my vote, because it's got the most things going for it for me, but if Ophelia and Vesper had different combos, I'd more than likely have voted for one of those instead.
Good luck!Ashley

My exterior doors are steel. On the interior side, they were painted a couple shades darker than the walls (wood trim). On the outside they were a different color.
I'm picking new paint for both sides and my family didn't like my choices. : ( sigh In my living room, the walls are sort of cream colored. Do most people paint the doors a couple shades darker or just the same color as the walls? For painted entry doors, do most people paint them the same color on both sides?
Our front door is on the west side of our house and has to be a somewhat light color so it won't get too hot. I picked a sand color that I THOUGHT would go with both our interior walls and with our brown brick on the outside of the house.
Follow-Up Postings:
All our interior doors are the same color as the trim - white. This includes the *inside* side of exterior doors. Does that make sense? Front door has the leaded glass insert and is painted deep green on the outside, white on the inside. All other exterior doors are a sand color on the outside, white on the inside. tina |
Same here, almost. All of our exterior doors are painted dark green on the exterior, and the same as our trim color on the interior. However, our front door is a natural oak, and it is the same on both sides. In general, I would say the interior of most doors would be the same as your interior trim color. |
I'm in the process of changing my metal door inside color white to match the trim. They were the same has the wall color, which was a creamy color. Our exterior's are dark green. But I see your dilemna though, you can't stain your metal door to match the trim. If it were me, I'd match it to the wall?!?!?! And I say the exterior of the door should be a contrast to the brick color? At least in my opinion it should be. My match my shutters. JMO |
The only door that isn't the same color on the inside and outside is the "front door". It's a greyed tourquoise on the exterior and a cream color on the inside. The inside of the door matches the rest of the woodwork throughout the house. |
Inside of front and side exterior steel doors (in the same area/entry hall) are a cream color, just a bit lighter than the ceramic tile. Trim is stained oak, so the doors can't match the trim. Exterior of front door is a rusty pumpkin color, side door is tudor brown, which matches all the exterior trim. That said, Thursday we are getting new doors, and for now they will be the same color in and out, a creamy beige that matches the siding on the house. It was a lot more money to have them painted different colors in and out, so we went with what works best for the entry inside and the siding and brick outside. Down the line I think I am going to want to repaint the front door, for sure. A beige door, tho it works with the house colors, will likely drive me crazy from boredom! |
- Posted by christie_sw_mo (My Page) on Wed, Dec 5, 07 at 7:07
Thanks for your help. I guess a lot of people have white trim and white doors. My trim is stained a medium/dark oak color. Maybe I should just match the interior of the doors to the walls then. |
I have stained trim also and will be changing out my two front doors. Right now the outside is a cherry red and the inside a white. It looks yucky with the beautiful wood trim. I am changing to a wood door and will be painting the outside the same cherry red that it is currently. Then the inside will match the trim. Hope that gives you an idea of how someone else is doing it. |
Absolutely not! outside of double steel clad doors are the pretty blue trim of our white home, inside are white as are all our walls etc. |
For us, it depends on the room in which the doors are located, and whether or not we want to draw attention to them. We have the old multipanel doors that are a nice feature of our old house. All the trim in the house is painted much darker than the doors or the walls. In my office I painted the doors a medium color because they looked too bland painting them the same light color of the walls, but I didn't want them too dark, either. The exterior of the front door coordinates with the exterior house colors, and the inside coordinates with the LR colors. In the front den the doors are the same light cream we used on the inner trim of the windows, while the door frames are the same dark color we used on the outer trim/frame of the windows. If you want to de-emphasize the doors, paint them a color that makes them recede, such as the color of the surrounding walls. If you want to emphasize them, use a contrasting color that draws attention to them. |
All my interior doors are the same color as my trim, a shade of white. All the exterior doors are white (my exterior trim is white) except the front door which is white on the inside (to match the other doors) and green on the exterior. I may swap the door for a mahogany one, in which case I will not paint it. Our stair rail is mahogany, so it will match that. In case this comes up, the edges of two-colored door should be the color of the side for the direction the door swings. Wow, I worded that badly! In other words, my green exterior/white interior front door swings in, so the edges of the door are white. |

Read More If Melody Gardot's 2009 sophomore effort, My One and Only Thrill, sustained the sultry, atmospheric vibe of her critically acclaimed 2006 debut, her 2012 follow-up, The Absence, is a bit of a creative departure for the vocalist. Apparently inspired by her world travels, and specifically by a trip that brought her to the desert around the city of Marrakech, the album moves her away from smoky, small-group jazz and into a bright, if still bedroom-eyed, rhythmically exotic sound. Produced by guitarist/composer Heitor Pereira, the album is a lush, somewhat orchestral album that finds Gardot delving into various Brazilian, Spanish, and African-influenced sounds -- including bits of samba, tango, bossa nova, and calypso -- that evince her global journey. However, rather than simply making a standards album, Gardot continues her all-original approach, offering up new literate and passionately delivered compositions that bring to mind the work of such similarly inclined artists as Antonio Carlos Jobim, Paul Simon, Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, and others. Although there are a few name musicians who help add spice to Gardot's musical caravan here, including percussionist Paulinho Da Costa, drummer Peter Erskine, and bassist John Leftwich, primarily it is still Gardot's burnished and yearning vocal style that takes the helm on these tracks. ~ Matt Collar, Rovi Read Less

Republican And Democrat Caucus Changes
By Rick Brough
To all appearances, last weekend's Republican and Democratic state conventions could be the last round for Utah's caucus and convention system as we know it. A bill in the recent legislature altered the process for candidates to get on a primary ballot.
But Summit County's Democratic and GOP party chairs think the caucus system might still be basically unchanged. Rick Brough has more.

This tree/shrub grows in central Massachusetts, along a boggy pond on our property. It is in a very wet situation and is definately a wild deciduous plant. It has grown up to 20+ feet. Birdies like the berries, so I haven't removed all of them -- yet! In the New England forum some of the guesses have been: --arrowwood viburnum (I don't think its this.) Any experts out there? Also, how to control methods. Thanks for your attention/responses. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Are the leaves opposite one another? They appear alternate, but not sure if some got dropped off. Viburnum and dogwood have opposite leaf arrangement. Frangula has alternate leaves. That's an easy way to rule some choices. |
Definitely Frangula alnus. The veins are straighter than those of dogwood. The reddish petioles also help pin it down, plus the shiny black fruit. Best way to control is cut stems and treat with herbicide, also known as "cut and paint". Late summer and fall is a good time to do it. |
- Posted by debra_boston Zone 5 - Boston (My Page) on Wed, Aug 6, 14 at 11:32
Will be cuttn and paintin come October! Thanks. |
Note the speckled stems now. Will help to distinguish it from dogwood later on. Might also want to check the area now for speckled alder as it will look similar in the fall. |

So having failed to cure the New York Knickerbockers of their essential Knickitude, Carmelo Anthony is now declared part of the problem rather than the solution.
That's how it rolls in your National Basketball Association, though. When you're cast as an instantaneous savior, you'd better be instantaneously saving, or the only thing you'll be trying to save is your own considerable hind.

Eye on Basketball |
That Anthony could not immediately make the Knicks the Heat, Celtics or Bulls should come as no surprise. He's a superb scorer, but he is not, never has been, and never will be a transformative figure. The Knicks went after him with their customary gotta-have-it-gotta-have-it-gotta-have-it fervor because he was the best thing on the shelf at the time, and the Knicks don't put off shopping just because the goods don't meet their needs.
What is more interesting is how quickly basketball fans went from "The Knicks got their guy" to "The Knicks got the wrong guy." Indeed, the Knicks did get their guy, and they did get the wrong guy, because they wanted Anthony to be something he is not.
A team-turner.
The Knicks are 7-9 since the Anthony trade, and that's not because Anthony is some kind of failure. It's because the Knicks are an average team in a conference with four good teams, and they're not one of them. They used to be awful and now they're hit and miss. Anthony wasn't going to change that, because Anthony is what he is, not what the Knicks and their fans wanted him to be.
In the history of the NBA, there are few players who recreate a team by moving, or destroy their old team by leaving. Anthony isn't one of those, though it is always possible he could be the first significant piece in a makeover that recreates the Knicks.
The Knicks' 7-9 record since acquiring Melo has many thinking New York made a bad choice. (Getty Images) |
Now do we need to say that Carmelo Anthony is not LeBron James?
No, Anthony, through no fault of anything except the terms of his Denver contract, became Mr. Right when what he actually was Mr. Right Now.
But to understand that, one needs to pull back from the heat of the moment, and the problem with the Anthony deal was that it created a lot of heat without the commensurate amount of light. And in your modern physics-defying sporting landscape, heat travels much faster than light.
Therein lies the Carmelo Anthony issue in a nutshell. He was asked by those patient souls in New York and in NBA chat rooms to be something more than Carmelo Anthony simply because he went to New York, which is still supposed to be a magical place despite the fact that the Knicks have a history of being anything but.
And they asked him to be that immediately, with no discernible help. Now that is simply madness. Madness that will not subside just because logic demands it.
It's Melo. It's the Knicks. It's supposed to be something special -- just because it is. And if it isn't, it's because Anthony wasn't what he purported to be.
But that is the fault mostly of the purporters rather than Anthony. They got stars in their eyes because they wanted stars in their eyes. They convinced themselves this was it, and they put in an entire fifth of a season before they decided they'd been had, and blamed the instrument rather than the musicians.
And the musicians, they need to acknowledge, are themselves.

I just bought some pinch pleat drapes to hang in my dining room. I'm not quite sure how to place the clip rings on the drapes. Anyone know??? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I wouldn't think you would use clip rings with pinch pleats. For those you would use the drapery pins that go into little loops on the rings. Clips would be for panels that have plain or flat area on the tops or a flat back to the pleat like a goblet, Maybe someone like our expert Chelone will jump in on this. |
- Posted by dragonfly_ (My Page) on Mon, Dec 3, 07 at 23:50
I used ring hooks for mine. I have the link posted below. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Ring Hooks
I agree--you should use a loop ring--not a clip ring. The sales lady at JCP showed me that you just need to slide the clip off the ring and then you can use them like a loop ring. I do know you will need to place them higer up--not sure how high though. |
- Posted by fivefootzero (My Page) on Tue, Dec 4, 07 at 9:05
Here are mine...I just hung them last week. And on the JCP website they do show pinch pleats with clip rings...so it's not unheard of. I placed my clips behind the pleat. |
- Posted by dragonfly_ (My Page) on Tue, Dec 4, 07 at 11:01
- Posted by fivefootzero (My Page) on Tue, Dec 4, 07 at 11:28
Nope, they are lined and have weights at the bottom. They are the antique satin from JCP. |
They are shown in Linen's - n- Things (where I got them) with clip rings and on the packaging. I also saw them on the JCP website with the clip rings. I just bought another set for the second panel. They come in sets of 7!!? I think I need to iron them and then they should hang right. I'll let you know with pics soon...dining room is almost complete. ;) Just have to get rid of a horrible chandelier from previous owner!!! |
You are right - I went to the JCP website, and some of their pinch-pleated drapery are hung from clip rings. I find that so odd - a very casual way of hanging a more formal style of drapery treatment, especially to have the clips showing on the ends. Personally, I don't care for seeing the clips and chain behind the pleats, but that is just me. If you zoom in on a few of those pix on the JCP website, you should be able to see how they have attached the clips. They come in sets of 7 because there is a standard number of pleats per panel for ready-mades. |

Wycliffe (WYC) | New International Version (NIV) |
2 For another man believeth, that he may eat all things; but he that is frail [but he that is sick, or unsteadfast], eat worts. | 2 One man's faith allows him to eat everything, but another man, whose faith is weak, eats only vegetables. |
