2007 was the year that saw California's wine industry pick up once again, after a troubling couple of years. Indeed, all across the state of California, fantastic harvests were reported as a result of fine weather conditions throughout the flowering and ripening periods, and Napa Valley and Santa Barbera wines were widely considered amongst the best in the world in 2007, with Pinot Noir and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes packing in all sorts of fine and desirable features in this year. South Africa, too, had a much-needed fantastic year for red wines, with Pinotage particularly displaying strong characteristics, alongside the country's other flagship red wine grape varietals. Over in Europe, France had another fine year, especially for white wines. Champagne wineries were very happy with their Chardonnay harvests, and the Loire Valley and Graves in Bordeaux are proclaiming 2007 to be a memorable year due to the quality of their white wine grapes. For French red wines, Provence had their best year for almost a decade, as did the Southern Rhone. However, 2007 was most favorable to Italy, who saw high yields of exceptional quality across almost all of their major wine producing regions. Tuscany is claiming to have produced its best Chianti and Brunello wines for several years in 2007, and Piedmont and Veneto had a wonderful year for red wines. For Italian white wines, 2007 was an extremely successful year for Alto Adige and Campania. Germany also had a very good 2007, with Riesling displaying extremely dry and crisp characteristics, as did Portugal, where Port wine from 2007 is said to be one to collect.
The name of this grape, meaning 'blood of Jove' conjures up evocative images of long dead civilizations, and gives the Sangiovese varietal a sense of the holy, the sacred, the special. Indeed, this particular type of Italian grape has been cultivated and processed for thousands of years, and is said to be the original favorite grape varietal of the Romans, and the Etruscans before them. Throughout history, vintners have continued to plant this varietal, and they continue to produce wonderful wines to this day. The long bunches of very dark, round fruit are treasured by fine wineries in Italy and a few other places around the world, and when young, these grapes are lively full of strawberry flavors and a little spiciness. However, it is when they are aged in oak that they take on some truly special flavors and aromas, as seen in some of the finest wines of the Old World.
Tuscany is probably Italy's most important and widely respected wine region, with a history which stretches back almost three thousand years, and a set of fine grape varietals which produce some of the most delicious quality white and red wines in the world. Sangiovese and Vernaccia varietal grapes are grown all over this expansive region, and the way they are handled, aged and processed varies from town to town. The beautiful hot climate of Tuscany helps these grapes reach full ripeness, despite the fact the soil of the region is generally problematic for the vintners who work there. Despite this, there is a dedication to quality and flavor in Tuscany which is more or less unmatched anywhere else in Italy, and a great mix of strong tradition and willingness to experiment and think outside the box which has been a wonderful recipe for success in the region.
Italy is recognised as being one of the finest wine producing countries in the world, and it isn't difficult to see why. With a vast amount of land across the country used primarily for vineyard cultivation and wine production, each region of Italy manages to produce a wide range of excellent quality wines, each representative of the region it is produced in. Any lover of Italian wines will be able to tell you of the variety the country produces, from the deliciously astringent and alpine-fresh wines of the northern borders, to the deliciously jammy and fruit-forward wines of the south and the Italian islands. Regions such as Barolo are frequently compared with Bordeaux and Burgundy in France, as their oak aged red wines have all the complexity and earthy, spicy excellence of some of the finest wines in the world, and the sparkling wines of Asti and elsewhere in Italy can easily challenge and often exceed the high standards put forward by Champagne. Thanks to excellent terrain and climatic conditions, Italy has long since proven itself a major player in the world of wines, and long may this dedication to quality and excellence continue.

The St. Catharine College volleyball team played two tough opponents last week and came out on the short end of both matches. But the Patriots helped in the effort to defeat another foe when they held Tuesday's match to raise money to fight breast cancer.
The Washington County Commanders had a limited time of possession Friday night, but put twice as many points on the board as the Bethlehem Eagles. WC won the game 40-20 and improved to 3-4 on the season.
"It was a good win," said WC head football coach Mark Perry. "We didn't play well on the defensive side, but it's still a win. They say that's the sign of a good football team, if you don't play well but you still win the game."

I remember watching sports on television back in my youth and most of the advertising before, during and after the game either came from cigarette or beer companies. That was fine. You pretty much knew what to expect and you just enjoyed the game.
Today, it's a whole other story.

The Washington County Commanders wouldn't trade their win on Friday for all the gold in Fort Knox. WC improved to 2-4 on the season and 1-1 in district play with a decisive 48-21 victory over the Eagles. Once again, the Commanders' offense exploded, scoring all of its 48 points in the first half, providing proof of its status as one of the top offensive teams in Class 2A.

LONDON — Contaminated heroin may have caused an anthrax outbreak among drug addicts in Scotland, killing six people and infecting 12 in total, health officials said Thursday.
All of the people stricken with the bacterial disease were believed to be heroin users, said a spokesman at Scotland's Health Protection Agency, who spoke on condition of anonymity in line with government policy. The agency said other cases were under investigation, but would not specify how many.
Experts say contaminated heroin or another powder-like substance used to dilute the drug may have spread the disease. Scottish officials warned that further cases might be detected beyond Glasgow, where 4 deaths have occurred. Another 2 people died near Dundee and Forth Valley.
Anthrax is an animal disease and regularly infects people in Africa and Asia, as well as parts of southern Europe. It can be treated with antibiotics if caught early, and does not usually spread from person to person. Left untreated, anthrax can be fatal.
"Heroin users all across Scotland need to be aware of the risks of a potentially contaminated supply," said Colin Ramsay, a consultant epidemiologist at Health Protection Scotland in a statement.
Only a handful of anthrax cases have been reported in the United Kingdom in the past decade. The disease mostly affects people exposed to contaminated animal hides and other animal products.
"It is highly probable that the contamination of heroin by anthrax is accidental," said Gordon Meldrum, director general of the Scottish Crime and Drug Enforcement Agency, in a statement. "Production processes (of heroin) can be basic and often be conducted in areas where there is contamination from animal carcasses or feces."
Scottish police said investigations into the anthrax deaths were ongoing.
"We are preparing reports for prosecutors," said David Steele, a spokesman for the Association of Chief Police Officers of Scotland. "Those who supplied the drugs are reluctant to talk, but we will investigate them fully."
Agencies working to help heroin addicts, like Turning Point Scotland, said they were scanning more than 120 users a day for signs of anthrax infection.
"We are checking everyone over," said Beverley Bell, a spokeswoman for the organization. "It usually reveals itself through little black dots or spots around the area of injection."
She said the agency was also passing out leaflets about anthrax to heroin addicts and asking them to warn other users of the risks.
Another bacteria outbreak struck Scottish heroin users in 2000, when an infected batch of the drug killed 60 people. In 2000, one person in Norway caught anthrax after injecting contaminated drugs.
In Scotland, authorities said heroin users, rather than the general public, were most at risk.
"Heroin users do need to be on their guard," said Ramsay. While anthrax spores can be spread in the air, officials said there was no evidence of that type of spread in this current outbreak.
"I would advise heroin users to stop using heroin and seek advice," Ramsay said.
He said any heroin users who noticed signs of infection – like redness or swelling around a needle injection site or a fever – should seek medical help immediately.
The World Health Organization said it was monitoring the situation, but did not expect the outbreak to spill over into the general public.
Associated Press Writer Ben McConville contributed to this report from Edinburgh.

Title: | Peace punks and punks against racism: resource mobilization and frame construction in the punk movement |

Abstract: | In recent years, scholars have begun to attend to the gap in our understanding of the relationship between music and social movements. One such example is Corte's and Edwards' "White Power Music and the Mobilization of Racist Social Movements". Our research shares the perspective of Corte and Edwards (2008) which emphasizes the centrality of music to social movement organizations, especially in terms of resource mobilization, but rather than look at how punk music was used as an instrument by an external social movement like the White Power movement, we look at how punks themselves joined social movements and altered the dynamics of the movements they joined. We also provide examples of punk involvement in left wing social movements to emphasize the indeterminate nature of punk politics. We examine two such cases: the Rock Against Racism movement in the U.K., and the Peace movement in the U.S. In both cases, punks made use of their independent media as a means to provide an infrastructure for mobilization of resources to sustain the punks' involvement in these social movements and the unique framing provided by punks, which altered the dynamic of the movements they joined. What makes punk an interesting case is that the "do-it-yourself" ethic of independent media construction that was at the centre of the punk movement made it possible for punks to make connections to various other social movements as well as alter the dynamics of those social movements. In these cases, punk music was not used as a means toward an end, but rather punks themselves had a significant impact on these movements both in terms of resource mobilization and frame alignment. |

An Oldham County returned a verdict Friday in favor of The Rawlings Company, in a class action brought against Rawlings and its founder George Rawlings on behalf of current and former medical claims auditors.
The class action alleged that the company misclassified hundreds of employees as exempt from overtime laws, and improperly failed to pay them for overtime.
The class action sought millions of dollars of overtime pay and penalties, for a period of more than seven years.

freedom of speech
So we're not all Charlie Hebdo …
David Brooks opines today concerning the murders in Paris (quit calling them "executions" and giving them some sort of legal patina):
Americans may laud Charlie Hebdo for being brave enough to publish cartoons ridiculing the Prophet Muhammad, but, if Ayaan Hirsi Ali is invited to campus, there are often calls to deny her a podium.
So this might be a teachable moment. As we are mortified by the slaughter of those writers and editors in Paris, it's a good time to come up with a less hypocritical approach to our own controversial figures, provocateurs and satirists.
The first thing to say, I suppose, is that whatever you might have put on your Facebook page yesterday, it is inaccurate for most of us to claim, Je Suis Charlie Hebdo, or I Am Charlie Hebdo. Most of us don't actually engage in the sort of deliberately offensive humor that that newspaper specializes in.
We might have started out that way. When you are 13, it seems daring and provocative to "épater la bourgeoisie," to stick a finger in the eye of authority, to ridicule other people's religious beliefs.
But after a while that seems puerile. Most of us move toward more complicated views of reality and more forgiving views of others. (Ridicule becomes less fun as you become more aware of your own frequent ridiculousness.) Most of us do try to show a modicum of respect for people of different creeds and faiths. We do try to open conversations with listening rather than insult.
Yet, at the same time, most of us know that provocateurs and other outlandish figures serve useful public roles. Satirists and ridiculers expose our weakness and vanity when we are feeling proud. They puncture the self-puffery of the successful. They level social inequality by bringing the mighty low. When they are effective they help us address our foibles communally, since laughter is one of the ultimate bonding experiences.
A lot of people are panning Brooks today, but on the large point, I think he's right. What was done was, in many people's opinion, "puerile" and "offensive". But as he further points out, even those who are puerile and offensive in that regard do indeed serve a "useful public role." They point to things that need pointed at and they do it in a way that is difficult to ignore. That doesn't mean I have to like their methods or even their message, but I do want them to have the freedom to express it.
For myself, I usually avoid that sort of offense. I personally think most points can be made within reasonable bounds of propriety. But those are limits I put on myself. It's a personal belief that I am able to sway more people with reasonable arguments and bits of sarcasm that I am from being puerile and offensive. I believe that those who engage in that sort of behavior turn off more minds than they turn on. But that's my belief. However, for those that believe otherwise, they have the full right to engage in such behavior as long as it doesn't violate the rights of others. And no, you have absolutely no right to not be offended.
So in that regard, Brooks is right. I'm not in the mold of Charlie Hebdo … but I defend their right to be offensive, profane, blasphemous and puerile via their speech with everything I have. That doesn't at all mean I like it, am not offended by it or think it is right. And whatever they do, their right to free speech also opens them up to the consequences of exercising that right.
Murder is not one of them. Violence of any sort is not one of them. We hear a lot about proportionality. What is a proportional response to being offended? Off the top of my head I can think of any number of "proportional" responses – depending on what you find offensive, there are several ways to make that point – condemnation, boycott, peaceful activism, ignoring them, dismissing them, etc. But their right to say what they want is as fundamental a freedom as the consequences that come with it. And that's how it should be.
Modern Christians, for instance, have seen many examples of profanity and what they'd consider to be blasphemy writ large – in supposed "art" for instance. However, they've responded proportionally to the offense.
So Brooks is right in the large sense. I'm not Charlie Hebdo – but I'll support Charlie Hebdo's right to do what they did to the death.

Islamic violence brings out our domestic would-be oppressors
Eric Posner wants us to understand that we "value" freedom of speech much too much. Because, after all, the rest of the world doesn't see it the way we do, and thus, one gathers from his article, we should become more like them. In the title to his article he says we "overvalue" the right of freedom of speech. Here's what the hoary whisper of oppression sounds like:
This is that Americans need to learn that the rest of the world—and not just Muslims—see no sense in the First Amendment. Even other Western nations take a more circumspect position on freedom of expression than we do, realizing that often free speech must yield to other values and the need for order. Our own history suggests that they might have a point.
He goes on to give examples of our history where government has been less than supportive of the right.
Notice what he values more than free speech? Order. I wish I had a dollar for every pop-gun totalitarian whose clarion call was for "order" over other rights.
You see one of the acknowledged problems with freedom is it's messy. That's right, people get to make choices you don't agree with and, even more importantly, get to act on them without your permission.
That's just too "messy" for some, like Posner. Instead we sh0uld voluntarily curtail our freedoms to placate mobs and murderers half a world away because they choose to become violent over something someone said.
Posner spends the rest of the article trying to defend his premise and sound reasonable. Interestingly it devolves into a secondary attack on conservatives who apparently use this wretched overvalued freedom to oppose such wonderful and valuable things like hate speech laws and political correctness.
Make no mistake about it, at bottom, this is an appeal for speech codes and legal remedy for speech those like Posner find to be "invaluable" for whatever reason – in this case "order".
Putting this to the old libertarian test, i.e. "freedom = choice", it flunks. It limits or removes choice in the face of mob violence half a world away. It gives in to people who chose to be violent.
Anyone with more than a day on this earth knows that such a move would only encourage more acting out by those mobs. They sack an embassy, we clamp down on our own rights. Any time they can dictate a limiting of our freedoms with their actions we essentially play right into their hand and they win. For some reason, those like Posner can't see the dark hand of al Qaeda and other violent radical Islamic gangs behind this. And the first thing these cut-and-run cowards suggest we do is limit our freedoms to placate those who would willingly kill us if given the chance?
No thanks.

DoJ identifies man allegedly responsible for anti-Islamic film
So the Justice Department (a department name becoming more Orwellian by the day) has fingered the man they suspect of being responsible for this film the administration says caused these deadly attacks in the Middle East?
Federal authorities have identified a southern California man once convicted of financial crimes as the key figure behind the anti-Muslim film that ignited mob violence against U.S. embassies across the Mideast, a U.S. law enforcement official said Thursday.
Attorney General Eric Holder said that Justice Department officials had opened a criminal investigation into the deaths of the U.S. ambassador to Libya and three other diplomats killed during an attack on the American mission in Benghazi. It was not immediately clear whether authorities were focusing on the California filmmaker as part of that probe.
A federal law enforcement official said Thursday that Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, 55, was the man behind "Innocence of Muslims," a film denigrating Islam and the Prophet Muhammad that sparked protests earlier in the week in Egypt and Libya and now in Yemen. U.S. authorities are investigating whether the deaths of U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans in Libya came during a terrorist attack.
Uh, so? Implying this film is the reason for the murders that have taken place is a bit like complaining that a woman who was raped dressed too provocatively (which, btw, is a valid complaint … in Saudi Arabia).
And AP, by gosh, is on the job:
The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss an ongoing investigation, said Nakoula was connected to the persona of Sam Bacile, a figure who initially claimed to be the writer and director of the film. But Bacile quickly turned out to a false identity and the Associated Press traced a cellphone number used by Bacile to a southern California house where Nakoula was found.
Bacile initially claimed a Jewish and Israeli background. But others involved in the film said his statements were contrived as evidence mounted that the film's key player was a southern Californian Coptic Christian with a checkered past.
Nakoula told The Associated Press in an interview outside Los Angeles Wednesday that he managed logistics for the company that produced "Innocence of Muslims," which mocked Muslims and the prophet Muhammad.
Nakoula denied that he was Bacile and insisted he did not direct the film, though he said he knew Bacile. But federal court papers filed against Nakoula in a 2010 criminal prosecution said that he had used numerous aliases in the past. Among the fake names, the documents said, were Nicola Bacily, Robert Bacily and Erwin Salameh, all similar to the Sam Bacile persona. Other aliases described in the documents included Ahmad Hamdy, Kritbag Difrat and PJ Tobacco.
During a conversation outside his home, Nakoula offered his driver's license to show his identity but kept his thumb over his middle name, Basseley. Records checks by the AP subsequently found that middle name as well as other connections to the Bacile persona.
The AP located Bacile after obtaining his cellphone number from Morris Sadek, a conservative Coptic Christian in the U.S. who had promoted the anti-Muslim film in recent days on his website. Egypt's Christian Coptic populace has long decried what they describe as a history of discrimination and occasional violence from the country's Arab majority.
If only AP had shown the same drive and interest in Fast and Furious. Or actually vetting the President before the 2008 election.
But to the point. It doesn't matter who did what to whom concering the film. Or who is responsible for it. Until recently this was America, land of the free and home of those with the right to freedom of speech.
We have the right to express our opinions in various ways whether others like it or not. Do you imagine that "Christian feelings" were "hurt" when "piss Christ" was displayed? Of course they were. Christians were very offended.
Don't remember 4 dead over that, do you?
Don't remember the Justice Department becoming involved either.
I think that may be because when that happened the right to free speech wasn't under assualt and those who created the so-called "work of art" (as well as the government) weren't particulary concerned with whether or not the feelings of any particular religion.
Because back then we knew the test of freedom of speech wasn't protecting speech you agreed with, but that with which you vehemently disagreed.
And, like it or not, that's the principle, so quickly abandoned by this administration, Mitt Romney was talking about.

For your company to maintain a clear advantage over its competitors and thus maintain a high value market share in your niche, it needs to have its own unique brand story. This is where effective market research comes into the picture and here we're going to talk about how deep market research can give you a massive strategic planning advantage.
The Strategic Planning Advantage of Marketing Research
The essence of strategic planning revolves around really knowing your customers' desires and needs in a way that guides your long term strategies so they are ahead of the curve of what others in your niche are doing. In other words, by researching your target market deeply enough, you'll gain sufficient understanding of your consumers to let you make a business strategy plan which effectively sustains your company brand so that it appears to be a cut above what others in your market are offering.
As this highly detailed ebook from the people at insightsinmarketing.com explains very carefully, all strategic planning involves squaring long term business and market goals with a heavy load of careful research of market conditions, consumer behavior, best exposure mediums (social, online ads, content creation etc.) and overall trends in your...

How Marketing Research Can Drive Strategic Planning For Marketers
Marketing To Keep Up With The Joneses
The subject for today's post comes from a conversation I recently had with two senior-level marketers who both work for a fine art auction house. The topic is more about overall marketing strategy than bar codes or mobile.
Let me start by asking you the question, if your best friend jumped off a bridge, would you? Chances are you, and most others, would say "no." Now, let me put a marketing spin on the same type of question and ask, if Competitor A launched a Twitter page, would you? Chances are you, and most others, would feel compelled to answer "yes" but, why? If you were one of the two marketers I spoke with the other day, the answer is simple, because it helps to keep us competitive. When I heard this it struck me because, what does keeping competitive in this time and place really mean? How far does it really get you? In my mind, not much and not very far at all.
If Competitor A launched a Twitter page, then you do, the playing field is level. If Competitor A launched a Pinterest board, then... Read more

This study evaluated The Transporters, an animated series designed to enhance emotion comprehension in children with autism spectrum conditions (ASC). n = 20 children with ASC (aged 4–7) watched The Transporters everyday for 4 weeks. Participants were tested before and after intervention on emotional vocabulary and emotion recognition at three levels of generalization. Two matched control groups of children (ASC group, n = 18 and typically developing group, n = 18) were also assessed twice without any intervention. The intervention group improved significantly more than the clinical control group on all task levels, performing comparably to typical controls at Time 2. We conclude that using The Transporters significantly improves emotion recognition in children with ASC. Future research should evaluate the series' effectiveness with lower-functioning individuals.

State's grain sorghum crop late, but good
Mississippi's farmers showed their ability to adapt when wet spring weather forced many of them to change their planting intentions from corn, cotton and soybeans to late-planted grain sorghum.
"This year it rained from about March 25 through mid-May, which had a huge impact on delaying planting and actually switching crop intentions," said Erick Larson, state corn and sorghum specialist with the Mississippi State University Extension Service. "The delay in planting corn acres, plus the likelihood that some producers had herbicides down that restricted cropping choices, contributed to a few more acres of grain sorghum this year."

G.Skill Trident X DDR3-2400 Memory Review - PAGE 9
Chris Ledenican - Sunday, May 20th, 2012 Like ShareG.Skill has always been dedicated to creating exceptional memory for enthusiasts, and the Trident-X series is no exception. This is due to all the kits in the series being designed to take advantage of the improved memory controller in the Ivy Bridge processors, allowing them to run at incredibly high speeds. The kit we examined is set at 2400MHz, but the Trident-X series currently offers memory clocked as high as 2800MHz. Of course at these speeds, the Trident-X series commands a higher premium over competing kits but considering the performance, we believe the pricing is well justified. What's more, the price is actually quite low for a 8GB kit rated at 2400MHz.
The G.Skill Trident-X memory modules also have a sleek modular heatspreader. This design allows the upper portion of the heatsink to be removed from the base, which will come in very handy for users with larger CPU heatsinks. The heatspreader also uses high-quality materials and is thicker than your standard memory heatspreader. The size of this thermal solution helps ensure the ICs are optimally cooled, regardless of whether or not the top fins remain attached.
The only issue we had with the memory is compatibility. During our testing, this kit of memory only worked at 2400MHz in one out of four boards we tried. They didn't work with ECS, ASRock, or Intel based boards, and we had all but given up on testing them until one the companies released a BIOS file compatible with the memory. Luckily for us though a Gigabyte board showed up in our labs just a few days ago that had no issues running the memory at their default setting. So, if you are going to buy this memory, it is HIGHLY recommended you read through the manufacturer's list of supported motherboards, because multiple manufacturers that have yet to update their BIOS to support the memory at time of writing.
- Comment on this article (6)
- check out our other DDR3 Memory articles
- read more G.Skill TridentX DDR3-2400 2x4GB Dual Channel Kit reviews
- visit our DDR3 Memory section
Also you keep referencing 1866mhz kits while there is not a single one in the tests.
Not to mention the price doesn't justify the increase in speed... better off getting some cheaper ram that has a lower speed but with alot tighter timings TBH

if you take the time to read all of the posts, in their entirety, you might learn not all were critical of Mr. Watkins. Perhaps before you spout off in his defens, and create with your verbage the impression he has something to hide, you'll read with a clear, unemotional eye. »

"Some people think she's eccentric, having so many pets, but she just really, really loves animals and it was devastating for her," News.com.au quoted X17online.com, as stating. Despite Hilton's rep telling Access Hollywood the story is "completely false", the website is standing by the claims, which they say have been confirmed by two reliable sources.
Hilton, who revealed on The Ellen DeGeneres Show earlier this year that she has 17 dogs, said she lavishes attention on all of them. "I trade it off so they don't get jealous - I'll bring like three out at once," she said.

Rare distinction for longtime city police employee
WINCHESTER — The city police department's director of emergency communications has earned a designation achieved by fewer than 200 people nationwide.
According to a media release, Erin Elrod was designated as a Registered Public Safety Leader after completing six classes in a year-long program through the Association of Public Safety Communication Officials.
The organization noted that the program "takes endurance and dedication."
Elrod said she is pleased to see new certifications for the industry. "I feel accomplished now that I've completed the requirements."
She has been with the department for more than 16 years and has been the director of emergency communications since 2005.
"[She] is an example of a leader at the police department who deserves endless recognition for her dedication to helping keep our community safe," spokesman Lauren Cummings stated in the media release.
Elrod received a diploma after recently completing online courses in topics such as communications skills for leaders, personal negotiations and building high-performance teams.
Cummings said the classes further Elrod's leadership capabilities and allow her to better serve in her capacity at the department.
Elrod said the classes also allowed for networking and that she appreciated being able to see that no matter the jurisdiction, everyone is dealing with the same issues.

New bugs found in software that caused 'Heartbleed' cyber threat
BOSTON (Reuters) - Security researchers have uncovered new bugs in the Web encryption software that caused the pernicious "Heartbleed" Internet threat that surfaced in April.
Experts said the newly discovered vulnerabilities in OpenSSL, which could allow hackers to spy on communications, do not appear to be as serious a threat as "Heartbleed."

Police said 45-year-old Thomas Garrow was driving a truck with no steering and limited brakes because he was trying to move it. No further details were available on where he was moving the truck from, and to.

ROBERT SIEGEL, host:
If you haven't heard about the band the Arctic Monkeys yet, just wait. Their CD is being released today in the U.S., and many critics are hailing the group as the next big thing.
The Arctic Monkeys have been dominating the British music charts. Their album WHATEVER PEOPLE SAY I AM, THAT'S WHAT I'M NOT is the fastest selling debut album ever in Britain.
Here's our reviewer, Chris Nickson.
(Soundbite of Artic Monkeys)
ARCTIC MONKEYS (singing): Got a feeling in my stomach. It's starting to wonder why you so remind me, why you so remind me, of the same (unintelligible) when the sun goes down.
CHRIS NICKSON reporting:
The Artic Monkeys have very cleverly walked in through the back door to their British success. Instead of a head-long assault on the industry, they burned demo CD's to give out at gigs and put music up on their website to create a groundswell of fans. A few years of relentlessly working the grass roots resulted in an instant number one single, the infectious, I Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor.
ARCTIC MONKEYS (Singing): I wish you'd stop ignoring me, because you're sending me to despair. Without a sound, yeah, you're calling me, and I don't think it's very fair, that your shoulders are frozen. Oh you're an explosion. You're name isn't real but I don't care. Besides I like (unintelligible). I bet that you look good on the dance floor. I don't if you're looking for romance. No I don't know what you're looking for. I said I bet that you look good on the dance floor.
NICKSON: The band's Sheffield home, in the north of England, had its economic guts ripped out when the steel industry died. Songwriter and singer Alex Turner finds poetry in this bleakness and random violence on the CD. And under his cynicism beats a romantic heart. On a certain romance, he writes, "Over there, there's broken bones. There's only music, so that there's new ring tones. And it doesn't take no Sherlock Holmes to see it's a little different around here."
He wears his origins unselfconsciously, using local dialect proudly, as on Maudy Bum, south Yorkshire for moody person.
(Soundbite of Artic Monkeys' Maudy Bum)
ARCTIC MONKEYS (Singing): Well now there, maudy bum, I've seen your frown and it's like looking down the barrel of a gun. And it goes up, and out come these all words. Oh there's a very clever side to you, a side I much prefer. One that laughs and jokes around, remember cuddles in the kitchen, yeah, to get things off the ground. And it was up, up, and away, ah, but it's right hard to remember that on a day like today when you're all argumentative, and you've got that face on.
NICKSON: The Arctic Monkeys songs are camera phone shots of working class life, from its scramble to earn money to its weekend hedonism. One big reason WHATEVER PEOPLE SAY I AM, THAT'S WHAT I'M NOT has found such an audience in Britain is that its sound and images resonate with the young. People recognize themselves and their frustrated emotions here.
There's nothing especially original in the Artic Monkeys' music, but they perform it with a swagger, the jagged edges deliberately intact. The jerky restless rhythms are infectious and their choruses soar into the brain. That sound should win American fans. The trick will be whether their shadowed vision of English life can fully cross the Atlantic.
(Soundbite of Artic Monkeys)
ARCTIC MONKEYS (Singing): This town's a different town today. This town's a different town from what it was last night. You couldn't (unintelligible) on a Sunday.
SIEGEL: The band is the Arctic Monkeys, the album is WHATEVER PEOPLE SAY I AM, THAT'S WHAT I'M NOT. Our reviewer is Chris Nickson.

Southern National Bancorp Of Virginia Inc. Announces Signing Of A Definitive Agreement To Acquire Prince George's Federal Savings Bank Which Is To Be Merged Into Its Subsidiary, Sonabank
MCLEAN, Va., Jan. 8, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Southern National Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. (Nasdaq:SONA) ("Southern National"), the holding company of Sonabank, and Prince George's Federal Savings Bank ("Prince George's FSB") jointly announced today the signing of a definitive merger agreement, under which Southern National has agreed to acquire Prince George's FSB in a cash and stock transaction with a total current value of approximately $11.5 million or $12.75 per share, subject to the terms of the definitive merger agreement.
Upon completion of the transaction, the combined company will have approximately $805 million in total assets, $700 million in total deposits, and $600 million in total loans. The transaction will add four new banking locations for Sonabank within the Washington, D.C. metropolitan statistical area, two in Prince George's County, Maryland and two in Calvert County, Maryland. This will give Sonabank a total of 24 locations, 20 of which, with over $500 million in deposits, will be in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan statistical area. The merger agreement has been approved by the Board of Directors of each company. Closing of the transaction, which is expected to occur late in the second quarter of 2014, is subject to customary conditions, including regulatory approval and approval by the shareholders of Prince George's FSB.
Per the merger agreement, 50% of the consideration will be paid in cash and 50% will be in newly-issued shares of Southern National common stock, based on an election by the shareholders of Prince George's FSB and subject to proration. The exchange ratio for the stock component of the transaction will be determined by dividing $12.75 by Southern National's weighted average stock price during a twenty trading day period ending five business days before the closing of the transaction.
Prince George's FSB was founded in 1931 and is headquartered in Upper Marlboro, which is the County Seat of Prince George's County, Maryland. Prince George's FSB has four offices, all of which are in Maryland, including a main office in Upper Marlboro and three branch offices in Dunkirk, Brandywine and Huntingtown. Prince George's FSB has an excellent core deposit base reflecting its tenure in the communities it serves, and its lending activities have historically been focused on residential mortgages.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

I love to throw parties, but now that I have two kids cocktails or dinner parties aren't always appropriate. That's why I was happy to run across some ideas for DIY crafting parties over on The Daily Meal. With great options like pie-making, canning, or stationary-making, they've got a host of great ideas for fun gatherings that break from the party norm.
Head below the jump for 5 great party ideas.
