It's an overpriced, gimmick, prefragmented round that despite being overhyped will underperform and underpenetrate.
Spend the money on a premium JHP, which are proven performers...and also will let you put some rounds downrange to make sure that your gun will actually shoot them reliably and accurately.

Unless you plan on shooting someone in an airplane, save your money. The average person couldn't even determine reliability at that cost. The round was designed for situations where overpenatration is unacceptable, and you'd better believe there's a trade off for that.
Like the others said, pass it up and buy you some proven rounds in the caliber you need. The really light rounds are good for those who buy into the FPE over penetration, not me.
The ideal round IMO, employes both. As a general rule, I prefer the heavier rounds over the lighter one's in any caliber. Slower doesn't always equate to less effective. I use the slightly lighter rounds specifically for short barrel firearms just to boost the velocity for expansion only, and let the FPE fall where it may.

I did a bunch of research on MagSafe after carrying it for awhile because of the claims. After looking through the FBI reports on the needs of a duty round, the MagSafe lacks the penetration necessary to do the job effectively in actual shooting scenarios. I suggest a proven JHP round for SD.
"...whoever has no sword is to sell his coat and buy one." (Luke 22:36)
Christianity and Self Defense from a Biblical Perspective
It has its place. Price is the big downside IMO, more so than design or ballistics.
I've blown off only a few packages for obvious reasons of cost and found that for my purposes (preferences) it is quite OK. I particularly liked the low recoil in .40. OTOH, I'll likely not buy it again. It is just too too expensive and there are other options.
Right now though, since I already bought a few, that is what I have loaded up with.
Around here, except for deep winter, it is T shirt time. Penetration through outer garments isn't much of an issue.
This one round I never experimented with in live tissue. Like the others have said, due to cost vs any real advantage, it may not be worth it. But like Hopyard stated, in hot weather with t shirt type dress, it may be great, especially if concerned about richochets from an errant shot.
Mag Safe and Glaser do a great job of creating a huge wound on the surface that rarely goes deeper than 6". If they do not come in contact with intermediate resistance like heavy clothing or parts of the body such as an arm they work better. That said I have no use for them. I have been a middle of the road medium weight bullet believer for several years but am starting to lean towards the heaviest weight in caliber. As Glockman10mm has said in several of his post he uses actual results in animals that he has harvested to show that getting in deep and breaking bones leads to faster incapacitation. Over penetration has been a question in law-enforcement circles for quite some time but I believe shot placement and bullet effectiveness is far more crucial in the vast majority of LEO involved shootings. The heavier projectiles get in deeper and tend to do more damage by breaking down the structure that supports the body that would allow it to continue to fight. Just my $.02.
"Violence is seldom the answer, but when it is the answer it is the only answer".
"A nation of sheep breeds a government of wolves".
If I was a criminal, I'd go to the home of someone carrying MagSafe instead of real ammo. While I'm speaking with tongue in cheek!, overpenetration is grossly overblown because only 12% - 13% of rounds hit their intended target - what about the other 88% that MISS?
MagSafe ammo was created solely to help the overly-concerned solve their fears about overpenetration. While this is a valid issue, it should not be taken out of context amist the other 88% of rounds that miss.
Suggestion: Instead of buying weak / underperforming ammo like their fears tell them to do, most civilians would be better off with more training to ensure a higher probability of hitting center-mass with regular HP ammo that penetrates about 12" +.
Aim for the Thoracic Triangle Area between the armpits and the base of throat.
1. Shot Placement: Center Mass Between the Armpits & Base of Throat
2. Heavy for Caliber Bullet Weight / Construction
3. Choice of Caliber
That round doesn't interest me. Monstrously overpriced.
By the way, it's wasn't designed for firing inside aircraft. Bullets won't cause explosive decompression; they only cause a minor air leaks. The air marshalls carry the .357 Sig caliber. Go figure. Guess they're not concerned about overpenetration.

"We don't need to work too hard on these issues because the contract is clear. I don't know the exact situation right now because the lawyers are working with it. But we already have people working here and everything is okay."

When I first learned how to do herringbone stitch, the only way I could understand the thread path was to make herringbone tubes and ropes. So, that's what I did. And I made lots of herringbone ropes. Lots and lots and lots...until they eventually became my Iridescent Braids beading project.
While I love making herringbone stitch ropes when I need to bead (but don't know what I want to make), they're really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to this versatile bead-weaving stitch. Herringbone stitch can be modified and varied to create dozens of shapes and textures for beaded jewelry projects! Check out these five herringbone stitch projects that show off what this popular African beading stitch can do in the right hands.
One more thing these great herringbone stitch projects have in common? For a limited time, they're all on sale in the Beading Daily Shop! Stock up on these and other great herringbone stitch projects and save a little cash for more beads!

In my past 20 ranked losses, 8 of them are because of afk's, 3 of them are because either 2 people picked a mid champ or a top champ and BOTH got owned in lane. 9 of them are because I won my lane but went negative near the end of the game because I suck at carrying teams. If you go back further than that....there is another 5 afk game losses. Jesus this is insane.
And yet another game where 2 people decide they are going mid no matter what and we end up with a BRAND/TARIC bot lane that feeds vayne a ridiculous amount, not to mention syndra lost to lux even after I gave her a kill as jungle. Went from silver 2 99 LP to now being silver 3 0 LP. I win my lane EVERY time but I cant carry these teams anymore. 1 feeder is fine, but ALL of my losses involve 2+ feeders. If they took away the current dodge penalties of losing points and cancelling your placement matches, I'd probably be gold by now as I would have dodged around 80% of my losses.
Worst Yasuo Bot
I don't get why you don't dodge when you know your going to get trolls. I understand if you were in promotion series why you wouldn't want to dodge but otherwise the LP penalty for dodging is so minimal you would barely even notice it. I would rather lose 3 LP for dodging than losing around 20 or so and wasting 20 minutes or longer cause of trolls.
And I bet you can't recall any of the games you won because the enemy team straight up sucked, right? XD

nomenclature of sails on sailing vessels
I''m looking for a book or any source that describes and shows(diagrahms) sails gallants?????royals?? etc. Can anyone help me out here????????? firstname.lastname@example.com thanks!!!!
nomenclature of sails on sailing vessels
Books from the Aubrey/Maturin series by Patrick O''Brian each have a picture of a sailing ship with the sails labeled. They might not have all the names you need, however, because some boats aren''t rigged with all of them. Skysails, for example, might be found on an extreme clipper ship, but perhaps not on an earlier vessel, or one with a different use, like a whaler. The Mystic Seaport website might be a good place to look as well, along with one on the USS Constitution, since they just got a new suit of sails for her 200th anniversary.

French voters split. Mitterrand's Socialists stymied in bid for clear majority
France plunged Sunday into political confusion. Legislative elections left Socialists and conservatives running in a dead heat. According to final exit polls, President Fran,cois Mitterrand's Socialist Party won between 265 and 285 deputies. The mainstream conservative coalition also took between 265 and 285 deputies.
With the communists capturing 25 deputies and the extreme right National Front garnering one or two deputies, no single party will obtain a clear majority in the 577-seat National Assembly.
The uncertain results send a warning to Mr. Mitterrand. A month ago, he soared to reelection - only to find it impossible to translate this smashing personal success into a legislative majority. Frenchmen endorsed the President's reassuring presence, his steady hand at the helm during the last two years of ``cohabitation'' when he ruled with conservative Prime Minister Jacques Chirac.
Despite the stronger-than-expected right-wing showing, Socialist officials rule out a return to power by Mr. Chirac or another hard-line conservative. Nor, they say, will the election result in a repeat of the 1981 Socialist-communist coalition.
Mitterrand is expected to try to rule with the support of a swing group of centrist deputies.
``People voted for Mitterrand, not for the Socialists,'' explained one Socialist official in private. ``In many voting districts, Socialist candidates ran as much as 10 points behind the President.''
During the legislative election campaign, the President assured that he would not repeat his ``socialist'' experiment of 1981. There will be no massive nation alizations of industry, no notorious new corporate taxes, and no bold attempts at shortening the work week.
The moderate Mitterrand promised this time to ``choose a prime minister from the new majority.''
He could appoint a centrist leader such as Simone Veil or Pierre M'ehaignerie as prime minister. Or he could stick with his present choice, the moderate ``social democratic'' Michel Rocard. Many here compare Mr. Rocard to United States Democratic presidential hopeful Michael Dukakis. The two men are small in stature, dull public speakers, intellectual, and technocratic. Their greatest asset: a can-do image of competence.
``Rocard and Dukakis both believe in the same thing: a free market with a human face,'' says Jean-Pierre Jouyet, a top-ranking Ministry of Industry official. ``They don't want `socialism.' They want to work with industry.''

Pac-12 primed to take big step among nation's elite leagues

Pac-12 primed to take big step among nation's elite leagues
While we ponder how the SEC keeps getting stronger, and how everyone else can't seem to close the gap, we give you the Pac-12: A regional, top-heavy conference with a visionary commissioner trying to convince everyone this thing is about to blow up.
Sort of like the SEC and Roy Kramer in the early 1990s.
"Back then," Kramer said, "people thought we were crazy."
Crazy enough to introduce the SEC championship game, which grew so big and made the league so unique that it led to a network national television deal that spawned ridiculous multibillion dollar television contracts, which gave us the feeding, frightful monster we have today—with two teams in the BCS National Championship Game.
To this I say: The exact same thing could happen in the Pac-12. Why? Television money.
I ask you, would you have watched Washington State or Arizona this fall? Of course not. Will you watch the Cougars or Wildcats next season?
You better believe you will.
When Wazzu hired Mike Leach and Arizona hired Rich Rodriguez, it not only added two dynamic personalities to the Pac-12, it made a significant statement that the university presidents in the conference were serious about using the new influx of television money from conference expansion.
UCLA spent big to go after Boise State's Chris Petersen (didn't get him), and Arizona State did the same to try and land June Jones and Kevin Sumlin (more on that later). That those two had to settle (UCLA for Jim Mora Jr., ASU still looking) doesn't overshadow the reality that the landscape has changed in the once regional league.
Add those new hires to existing top 10 coach Chip Kelly (Oregon), and rising stars Lane Kiffin (USC) and Steve Sarkisian (Washington), and the Pac-12 is primed for a big step among the national elite.
The awful television contracts of years past—with limited money and exposure—are history. So is playing backup to the SEC and Big Ten.

2. Restoring the faith
Dear RG3:
Thanks for reminding us that the last 12 months of greed and corruption, of lying and cheating, isn't what college football is all about.
Sometimes it's about a trendsetter and his time. About a guy who—hold your breath, people—does the right thing.

3. Hello, sanity
Charlie Weis went from coordinating offense and calling plays at Florida, to the head coach of Kansas. He took a significant step down in pressure—and a significant step up in job security.
And got an extra $1.2 million a year for it.
Yeah, that must have been a tough decision.
of 9
4. If it worked once ...
Look, I'm the first guy to say Ron Zook had more than enough time to make it right at Illinois.
But if you're a university president and you're going to fire your head coach, you better damn well make sure the guy you're getting is an upgrade to the guy you ran off.
Illinois deep-sixed Zook, and hired Tim Beckman. If that's surprising, let me explain that coaching industry sources say the Illini offered the job to Petersen, Cincinnati coach Butch Jones and Sumlin (all declined) before turning to Beckman—who was 21-16 in three years at Toledo and whose defense gave up 63 points in back-to-back games this season.
When announcing the hire, Illinois athletic director Mike Thomas said Beckman was a high-energy guy and that, "caffeine is scared of him."
Uh, Mike? You just hired Ron Zook.

5. This week's sign that the acid trip offseason is still with us
Sometimes you just shake your head and move along. Case in point: the brouhaha over automatic qualifier "status." Whatever that means.
Seems as though the non-AQ teams (see: non-BCS) don't like being called non-AQ teams. So they want all classifications in the BCS system dropped so everyone is called the same thing.
Really, they do.
These "classifications", C-USA commissioner Britton Banowsky says, have been a "negative driver" in the marketing and growth of non-BCS schools. So Banowsky and all the current non-AQ teams want everyone on the same level.
No, Britton, you don't. Because once the AQ status is removed, then safeguards currently in place to allow non-AQ teams access to the major bowls disappear.
Anyone who thinks the Sugar or Orange Bowls would have chosen Boise State or Houston or Southern Miss over Michigan or Virginia Tech or Stanford are out of their mind.
The non-BCS schools should be holding onto that non-AQ status like grim death—instead of unwittingly playing into what the sport's heavy hitters want.

6. Here we come, 'SC
Let me see if I've got this straight: UCLA went looking for a coach, couldn't land the coach it wanted (does it really matter who?), then hired Jim Mora with all of no experience recruiting.
When I say no, I mean none. Not one recruiting call, not one visit, not one sell.
Meanwhile, across town, USC will begin the first of three consecutive seasons with 10 fewer scholarships to give (from 25 to 15). If ever UCLA needed a recruiting dynamo—a coach who can land elite recruits from Southern California while going head to head with recruiting ace Lane Kiffin—it's now.
A quick anecdote: UCLA's practice football field is 80 yards. That's right, 20 yards too short.
Fitting analogy.

7. Lacking a spark
I'm not exactly sure who ends up coaching Arizona State, but it's now abundantly clear why the Sun Devils can't seem to put everything together in a program set up for greatness.
Everything filters from the top.
Twice in the previous 10 days Arizona State had a terrific coaching hire locked up to replace fired Dennis Erickson—and twice the deals fell through with Sumlin and Jones.
Sumlin moved on to accept the Texas A&M job, and Jones—after ASU refused to pay his $2 million buyout from SMU—released a statement saying he was happy at SMU, which will join the Big East in 2013.
Meanwhile, a couple of hours south in Tucson, Arizona AD Greg Byrne got Rodriguez to sign before he even stepped on campus.
of 9
8. Pick your spots
Michigan athletic director David Brandon says he doesn't understand how Ohio State has received a waiver to essentially have two coaching staffs over the next three weeks.
Luke Fickell and his staff will coach the Buckeyes through bowl practices and against Florida in the Gator Bowl. New coach Urban Meyer and his staff will recruit.
In an email to The Associated Press, Brandon said, "I am struggling to understand how this relates to the 'level playing field' the NCAA claims it is always working to create."
That's funny, because I'm struggling to understand how Brandon is struggling to understand this non-story after watching the NCAA play patty-cake with Ohio State's blatant rules violators.
But that's just me, apparently.

9. The Big Footprint
Late last week, the Big East announced expansion plans—a shift West that will forever change the landscape of the game.
If you think the nearly 3,000-mile difference between San Diego State and the conference office in Providence, R.I., is crazy, consider this: with the new lineup, the Big East could have games played in all four times zones at the same time.
So they've got that going for them.

Current Research
My work focuses on fire danger prediction, with a goal of mitigating the threat seasonal wildfires pose to lives, properties, and landscapes in Southern California's highly populated and fire-prone region.
Research Interests
Developing fire danger forecasts using meteorological climate models. Such applications are critical to fire danger management. I also simulate largescale weather patterns, which help to explain variations in regional climate.
In the future, I will continue to focus on fire danger and behavior predictions to contribute to the protection of communities.

COP1 (constitutively photomorphogenic 1) is a RING-finger-containing protein that functions to repress plant photomorphogenesis, the light-mediated programme of plant development. Mutants of COP1 are constitutively photomorphogenic, and this has been attributed to their inability to negatively regulate the proteins LAF1 (ref. 1) and HY5 (ref. 2). The role of COP1 in mammalian cells is less well characterized. Here we identify the tumour-suppressor protein p53 as a COP1-interacting protein. COP1 increases p53 turnover by targeting it for degradation by the proteasome in a ubiquitin-dependent fashion, independently of MDM2 or Pirh2, which are known to interact with and negatively regulate p53. Moreover, COP1 serves as an E3 ubiquitin ligase for p53 in vitro and in vivo, and inhibits p53-dependent transcription and apoptosis. Depletion of COP1 by short interfering RNA (siRNA) stabilizes p53 and arrests cells in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Furthermore, we identify COP1 as a p53-inducible gene, and show that the depletion of COP1 and MDM2 by siRNA cooperatively sensitizes U2-OS cells to ionizing-radiation-induced cell death. Overall, these results indicate that COP1 is a critical negative regulator of p53 and represents a new pathway for maintaining p53 at low levels in unstressed cells.

I found the venue for our training (50-60 people) on Saturday, April 13th. Need catering ideas for lunch. Who have you all used?
Oh how funny! Looks like we have some great options to choose from for catering!
What about Dion's? They are local and have stores all over town. We had box lunches from them today doing taxes -- a sub, a pickle, Greek Dressing. And the included side is a nice slaw or a fruit cup. The 6" subs were only $5.50 each! They have 7 different subs and lots of options, like salads.
Or Baggins on Lomas near San Pedro. I don't know what part of town you are doing this in.
Thanks for the suggestions, folks. I am thinking of going with Gourmet To Go. The woman who runs this used to be the cook at Serendipity Day School when my kids were little and she is really great.
A bit late but I've had Daily Grind cater for groups of 25-50 with wonderful results.
For more ordinary (but good) food for weekday lunches, we've used Sandwich Company on Renard.

Saturday, December 05
United Center
Attendance: 20,481
Chicago, IL (Sports Network) - Chris Bosh made 9-of-12 field goals on his way to a game-high 25 points while pulling down 12 rebounds, as the Toronto Raptors demolished the Chicago Bulls, 110-78, at United Center.
Marco Belinelli added 15 points and five rebounds off the bench for the Raptors, who have won two in a row following a five-game skid. Rasho Nesterovic ended with 12 points and five rebounds while DeMar DeRozan chipped in 11 points for Toronto, which shot 48.2 percent from the field.
"Our guys got off to a real good start -- good energy, good on the glass, and running the ball. It was a good start for us and we were able to carry it through," said Raptors coach Jay Triano.
John Salmons and Jannero Pargo each scored 13 points for the Bulls, who have lost two straight and seven of eight overall. Brad Miller donated 11 points for Chicago, which shot 39 percent from the floor.
"They jumped on us early. Our starters didn't get us off to any type decent start. We got way behind in the first quarter and we were chasing the whole game," said Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro.
Ahead 18-11 midway through the first quarter, the Raptors closed the period with a 19-5 run. Bosh tallied seven points during the spurt, which Nesterovic capped with a jumper for a 37-16 lead heading to the second.
Toronto then opened the second stanza with a 12-5 flurry to build a comfortable margin. Belinelli started the burst with a trey and ended it with two straight baskets to make it 49-21 with about nine minutes left until half.
The Raptors held a 64-44 lead heading into the locker room. Toronto shot 56.1 percent from the field and made 14-of-14 foul shots in the first half.
Toronto turned the contest into a full-on rout in the third, starting the frame on a 15-3 spurt. Hedo Turkoglu's jumper made 79-47 with under 6 1/2 minutes to go.
The Raptors took an 87-58 lead into the final stanza, and cruised to victory from there.

An effective blog should only be an area of your website where you publish fresh content regularly, which could easily be called your News section. We suggest focusing your energy on the quality of your content rather than the quantity of visitors.
What is a CMS? A CMS, also known as a Content Management System is a website you can update on your own. The most common Content Managment Systems are WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal. Read more »

The weather finally cooperated enough to get some better pics of my Service Grade Max-Con V this morning - sorry it took so long guys.
All of the following pics are of the Service Grade. I'm still VERY satisfied to say the least and when being worn I can't tell a bit of difference between my Presentation and Service Grade MCVs. I'll leave any further comments up to Gary and Remy if they want to jump in here. Thanks you two!
BTW, those little white flecks in some of the pics are dust/lint - the finish is perfect!

Kendall, Kylie, & Drake Made A Music Video
The Jenner sisters join Drake in a new music video for PartyNextDoor's "Recognize." That makes Kourtney the only Kardashian sister who hasn't been in a music video. And, we've gotta say, Drake and the Jenners make an unlikely but totally solid trio. Plus, PartyNextDoor's song is perfect for those Friday-morning vibes. Check out the video below. You'll see the only thing Drizzy loves more than calling his exes is shouting out The Six. (MTV)

Frequently Asked Questions - Long Term Care
I understand that for some long-term care policies the insured person may deduct premiums on the Maine income tax return. For what policies is this deduction available? What is an elimination period? For long-term care insurance, it is the number of days that you pay out-of-pocket before the insurance company begins to pay benefits. What is the Maine Long-Term Care Partnership Program? Before July 1, 2009, insurers offered only traditional long-term care insurance policies. Now insurers can sell partnership policies as well. A list of Bureau approved partnership policies is posted here. If you have a long-term care partnership plan, you may be able to keep assets of a greater value than normally allowed for enrollment in MaineCare (Medicaid). MaineCare cannot recover this higher asset value from your estate. Where Can I Learn More About Long-Term Care Policies? We have a Guide to Long-Term Care in Maine available online, which provides additional information, including a list of insurance companies currently selling long-term care policies in Maine. If you prefer to receive this publication by mail, please call our Consumer Health Care Division at 1-800-300-5000 (in Maine) or 207-624-8475, or email us at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Wine libraries are not at least. Wine library may conjure images of one's dream collection of the world's best wines or perhaps a collection of tasting notes from a self-proclaimed sommelier or it may just be a medieval term with wines as outdated as the name.
Commonly referred to as the wine cellar, the Cathedral Ridge Wine Library is our opportunity to showcase our best wines with a collection of tasting notes from our own sommeliers. With original Flerchinger Vineyard vintages, Halbtrocken lovers would be beside themselves, to Merlot and Zinfandel verticals and even our famed Rusty Red from the beginning, our Wine Library is a dream for those who love our wine.
With Passport Weekend upon us, we invite you to join us to venture into the library for a complimentary Reserve Cellar Tasting and if you love what you find, we're offering 10% all reserve cellar purchases. But don't fret; if you can't make it this weekend, we welcome you to come in for a visit and perhaps an opportunity to venture into our library and our history. Enjoy the beauty of a different kind of library.
]]>Nothing scores higher on the intensity meter than syrah. A great syrah will entice with its notes of fruit, spice, and textures. As such, syrahs pair terrifically with meats from beef and lamb to pork, game, and tuna. It pays to play up syrah's spice with use of aromatics like garlic and alliums, peppercorns and peppers (bells as well as chiles), cinnamon and clove, all mushrooms, mustards, ginger, bay, basil, mints, parsley, sage, rosemary, oregano, and thyme. Grilling and roasting are always good ideas, but bringing out the sweetly scented berry or plum qualities of syrah by first marinating any number of ways is also good. Herewith, three noteworthy syrah pairings: Cumin-spiced burgers with Harissa Mayo, Shanghai Stir-Fried Pork with Cabbage and lamb Ragout with Olives and Peppers. ]]>
It's likely you've seen him roaming the winery grounds and there's a good chance he's attempted to solicit a pet or two from anyone that glances his way. Always bounding about, our hardworking and faithful winery dog Rusty, is a beloved CRW family member.
It seems like just yesterday that I missed a day of school to travel up north into Central Washington to pick-up the newest member of our family. Driving home, he was immediately dissatisfied with traveling in his crate and ended up making the journey home asleep in my lap and it hasn't changed much since, even though he's quadrupled in size. Growing up, Rusty was another brother. Always protective, an endless playmate and I even had to share the backseat on family road trips with him, wrestling for who got the most room and always losing.
Aside from being a brother, Rusty is also a top-notch bird dog, but you'll have to read that story on the bottle of wine dedicated to Rusty himself, our Rusty Red. A complex wine with rich, jammy blackberry, hints of chocolate, a bit of smoke and a touch of earthiness. A little bit of everything, just like Rusty is to our family.
We invite you out to say hello to Rusty and of course have a glass of wine. And keep an eye out for our newest family member, Rhett, a bundle of exuberant puppy racing around the grounds. Something tells me that his tribute wine will be a bit more spicy.
]]>While it's always a treat to go out to dinner, Valentine's Day is one of the few nights that I'd prefer to stay in. Sometimes the prix-fixe menus and forced romantic atmosphere can feel stuffy. Staying in can still be a major indulgence with the right ingredients…I plan on trying the following menu this Thursday (thanks, Martha!):
Appetizer: Artichoke-Parmesan Crostini, Main:Pepper-Crusted Filet Mignon, Side: Creamy Spinach and Slow Roasted Tomatoes, and dessert:Bittersweet Chocolate Mousse.
My husband and I will whip this up together while rocking out to some good records and sipping Rusty Red. This 100% Syrah is the perfect match for the pepper-crusted meat and veggies. It's also the "Wine of the Month" at Cathedral Ridge Winery, so it's a great time to stock up!
Cheers! –AG

For this coming Labor Day weekend, consider including a new element into any parties that you might host or attend. A vertical wine tasting is tasting one particular varietal (from the same winery) from successive years to experience the nuances that can change from year-to-year. It's a really interesting way to taste the way that unique weather patterns and soil conditions can slightly alter the resulting grape. A fun way to do it is to place each wine in a bag so that the tasting can be blind. Take notes and share personal favorites. You might go in with some friends to enjoy both a white and a red vertical. A Cabernet would be especially versatile with summer grilling: Try the Cathedral Ridge September Special (the two newest cab releases against the vintage). Cheers!! ]]>
The past several weeks have been Chanterelle mushroom season here in the Pacific Northwest, and those who know of a prime picking spot guard the secret with their lives. We happen to know of such a spot, where the Chanterelles are plentiful enough to fill large baskets if you hit it at the right time. After a picnic in the woods that included a little Pinot Noir (2009 Cathedral Ridge from Dampier Vineyard), we were like kids on an Easter egg hunt, plucking the golden delicacies until we had as many as we could carry.
After returning home with our bounty, we sauteed most of the mushrooms lightly in butter, and froze them to use throughout the year. That night, we enjoyed the freshly picked Chanterelles with roasted salmon (caught by my father in the White Salmon river), which paired amazingly with the Dampier Pinot Noir. I highly recommend the following recipe from Food & Wine…they suggest Oyster mushrooms, but encourage Chanterelles if they're available.
ROASTED SALMON with CHANTERELLES IN RED WINE
