SodaStream Named Among Fast Company's "World's 50 Most Innovative Companies"
AIRPORT CITY, Israel, Feb. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- SodaStream International Ltd. (NASDAQ: SODA), the leading manufacturer and distributor of home carbonation beverage systems, was named as one of the World's 50 Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company in the magazine's March 2013 issue.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20121107/NY07412LOGO )
''We are honored to be recognized by Fast Company as one the World's Most Innovative Companies in 2013," said Daniel Birnbaum, CEO of SodaStream. "We empower consumers around the world to change the way they consume carbonated beverages, offering a more convenient, better-for-you, eco-friendly alternative to "Big Soda" and the disposable plastic they create. We understand that innovation never ends and we see this honor as an inspiration to continue moving our mission forward."
Fast Company cited SodaStream as one of the World's Most Innovative Companies for "making DIY carbonation sexy." Other contributing factors for the honor include SodaStream innovations in soda flavors and its broad range of products such as The Source, a soda maker designed by renowned consumer product and industrial designer Yves Behar.
"The Source was created with the understanding that world-class aesthetics are a prerequisite to securing space on the countertop. It combines a sleek, clean design with best-in-class engineering," said Yaron Kopel, SodaStream Chief Innovation & Design Officer. "With a patented 'Snap-and Lock' bottle mechanism for easier connection and release, as well as clear LED feedback for carbonation levels, SodaStream Source creates a beautiful, functional and eco-friendly 21st Century appliance." Fast Company also honored businesses such as Apple, Amazon, Google and Nike, alongside rising newcomers such as Square, Fab and Tumblr, and international stars such as Kenya's Safaricom, Russia's Oktogo and China's Landwasher. Fast Company also recognizes Top-10 companies in certain countries, and for Israel SodaStream was rated #1, with Waze and Better Place among those rounding out the field. In their words, The World's Most Innovative Companies is Fast Company's most high-profile editorial effort of the year. The editorial team spends months gathering and sifting data to identify those enterprises that exemplify the best in business from across the economy and around the world. The end result is a package that dares to be different, emphasizing not just revenue growth and profit margins but also progressive business models and an ethos of creativity.Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

Last week, we introduced you to Richard Grenell, the man who had just been hired as Mitt Romney's national security and foreign policy spokesman. We also introduced you to a variety of mean and often sexist tweets that Grenell had gone in and deleted from his Twitter account because they made him look like a total asshat. Well, the good news is that he abruptly resigned from his job today, so we won't have to contend with his sexist remarks and general incompetence.

Like his previous books, "Possible Side Effects" is a series of funny little vignettes into Burroughs? life. The topics are hardly interesting and tend to repeat themselves, but his writing style is what makes his essays like potato chips: you know how they will taste and it's that familiar quality that has you coming back for more. And in providing that sort of entertainment, I applaud Mr. Burroughs and his unfailing ability to always bring about the Junk Food of Writing.
Apr 8, 2007
Intriguing, funny and comfortable, this book is the best I have read in MONTHS! Augusten is a person I feel that I am getting to know, while reading this book. He's witty and truthful, writing about his life experiences and telling the tale so simply, yet it all comes across as being funny and so REAL! I laughed many times, sympathized others, and related to every aspect of this book, chapter for chapter. I will urge all of my friends who are readers to purchase this book! In fact, I am ordering 3 of his others right now!

Genuine Contentment
The LORD gives strength to his people;
the LORD blesses his people with peace.
Psalm 29:11 NIV
Everywhere we turn, or so it seems, the world promises us contentment and happiness. But the contentment that the world offers is fleeting and incomplete. Thankfully, the contentment that God offers is all encompassing and everlasting.
Happiness depends less upon our circumstances than upon our thoughts. When we turn our thoughts to God, to His gifts, and to His glorious creation, we experience the joy that God intends for His children. But, when we focus on the negative aspects of life—or when we disobey God's commandments—we cause ourselves needless suffering.
Do you sincerely want to be a contented Christian? Then set your mind and your heart upon God's love and His grace . . . and let Him take care of the rest.
Contentment is not escape from battle, but rather an abiding peace and confidence in the midst of battle.
Warren Wiersbe
The secret of contentment in the midst of change is found in having roots in the changeless Christ—the same yesterday, today and forever.
Ed Young
Contentment is something we learn by adhering to the basics—cultivating a growing relationship with Jesus Christ, living daily, and knowing that Christ strengthens us for every challenge.
Charles Stanley
I believe that in every time and place it is within our power to acquiesce in the will of God—and what peace it brings to do so!
Elisabeth Elliot
Today's Prayer
Dear Lord, You offer me contentment and peace; let me accept Your peace. Help me to trust Your Word, to follow Your commandments, and to welcome the peace of Jesus into my heart, today and forever. Amen
Knowing the answer to this question is the first step to improving the relationships in your life. In these pages, Stephen Arterburn draws from his own positive and negative experiences, as well as his years of counseling others, to reveal six key attributes of thriving marriages, families, and friendships. His practical advice will help you lay the foundation for the lifelong, supportive relationships you were created for.

Barnsley V Peterborough at Oakwell Stadium : Match Preview
Barnsley V Peterborough - view commentary, squad, and statistics of the game live.
Stones ready to roll againBarnsley teenager John Stones could return to the starting line-up in the home clash with Peterborough.The 18-year-old defender missed the recent 5-0 win at Birmingham due to an ankle injury, but stepped off the substitutes' bench early in the second half of Saturday's home draw with Ipswich.Another defender, Bobby Hassell, is available following suspension, but was not included in the squad at the weekend, while Toni Silva is having to be patient before making his first appearance after recovering from a knee injury.The former Liverpool winger had returned to full training ahead of the Ipswich game, but was another player not included in manager Keith Hill's squad.Hill, who has no new injury or suspension problems, must decide whether to recall Luke Steele in goal or retain Ben Alnwick.Teenage striker Danny Rose hopes to play a bigger part after his appearance as a second-half substitute on Saturday, while winger Matty Done, plus midfielders Kelvin Etuhu and David Perkins are pushing for recalls.Saido Berahino will be included in the Peterborough squad, although the teenager is likely to start on the bench.West Brom striker Berahino linked up with Posh on Monday in a loan deal that will see him remain at London Road until the start of January.Darren Ferguson saw his side get their first points of the season on the board with a surprise 3-1 victory at Hull on Saturday and the Peterborough boss may be tempted to name an unchanged team when Posh visit Yorkshire for the second time in four days on Tuesday night.That would mean that Gabriel Zakuani and other experienced heads such as Danny Swanson, Lee Tomlin and Grant McCann remain as substitutes.

Master Time: Dictates everything from when to get up to when we die
There are two things that most Winter Olympics games have in common -- they involve sliding action of some sort and they pit the contestants not against each other, but against the clock, against time.
Time is our master, and it rules with an iron fist. It tells us when to wake up and when to sleep, when to arrive and when to leave, when to be born and when to die. Time has dirty tricks, cruel punishments in store for anyone who tries to undermine his harsh rule.

I am 22 years old I was taken to the US at the age of 4 months. I already had my interview at CD Juarez but they needed more documents about my residence in 1999 which I was in Mexico, I was 10 years old at that time, and did not remembered that and my parents did not tell me about that. It showed in there system I went to apply for a visa in 1999 at Mexico, so are they going to apply the 10 year bar for lying well I said I did not remebered that which I didnt I was only 10?
I am so confused and really scared. Need some advise fast because I'm losing my mind. Last October, My K1 petition was denied at the US Embassy in Dominican Republic. It was denied because When I filed in April 2010 I did not have my fiancé's divorce certificate and sent the original court documents signed by the Judge and translated into English. It was approved 68days without RFE's at VSC. Well his Original Divorce certificate was printed 4 months later based on the date of the hearing.
I have a question regarding the laws pertaining to sham marriages. Back in the year 1980 I made a sham marriage to stay in the U.S., I obtained a divorce through the court (NYC). I also was given a green card back in 1989. I had other issues with the law that resulted in my deportation in 1996.
I am a widowed and permanent resident women ,intending to get married overseas(in my country) with a man who lived in USA illegally(overstayed his visa) for 12 years and voluntarily went back home a year ago.Could he re-enter in USA after we get married?
I am an American citizen.Last year I married an Australian citizen. I then filed a petition I 130 and an adjustment of status for his permanent residency. In October we went in for his final interview. In November we received the decision letter saying he'd been denied. On the On the decision letter it said he was denied because he admitted to having smoked marijuana but they documented that he smokes on a regular basis when in fact that is not the case; it didn't say that he had to leave or he was going to be deported or anything helpful for that matter.
Hi, I have a question regarding the chances for my Colombian fiancee being approved for a visa. He has a drug trafficking conviction. Sentence was 8 years, but he served 3 1/2. It was his first & only offense and he is completel
I entered the U.S. as a minor (16 years old) in 1989 and went to high school and college in the U.S. After graduation I decided to regularize my situation, so I returned to Mexico in 2005 and applied there for a visa. I was, instead, impossed a bar of 10 years (until 2015) in order to be re-considered. In the meanwhile I have lived in Germany with my wife and children (my wife has never been in the U.S illegally). Since then I also acquired German citizenship. My two children (3 years old and 6 months, respectively) have German citizenship. So, all of us are German citizens.
We applied back in 2007 for a k1 and was denied because my wife (then fiance) was honest and told them of some past usage of drugs on (3 occasions to be exact). And so they made us wait 2 yrs and do various anti doping exams and take some drug adict class during the 2yrs until we could reapply. And we did all what they requested. But during that time we got married at the us international bridge in eagle pass tx. So with us getting married that changed the requirments so we started applying for a I-130 in 2010. will the denial affect us at the interview?

State says it forged papers to draw up scheme
The State government, on Monday, told the Kerala High Court that the composite scheme for amalgamating Harrisons Malayalam Ltd., Enchanting Plantations Ltd., and Malayalam Plantations Ltd. was intended to scuttle the action taken by the State government to take over lands in the illegal possession of Harrisons Malayalam.
In an affidavit, T.V. Vijayakumar, Joint Secretary, Revenue Department, said the subterfuge of amalgamation was employed solely to "hive off precious government land illegally in favour of paper companies."
The affidavit said the government was concerned about the scheme of the company since precious government land was going to be transferred under the cover of the composite scheme, which was formulated on the basis of concocted and fraudulent documents. The government said the High Court had already stayed the Vythiri Taluk Land Board's order issued in favour of the company. The order came on a writ petition filed by the government which contended that 59,693.997 acres of land spread over eight districts had been possessed illegally by the company.
The affidavit pointed out that that even before filing a counter affidavit in response to the petition, the board of directors, at a meeting, resolved to transfer land in favour of a new company called Harmony Plantations Ltd. The permission of the High Court was not sought. The company was also notified in the Bombay Stock Exchange.
Besides, the High Court had asked the company to surrender the excess land in its possession in August. It was then that the company filed an application seeking permission for the amalgamation scheme with a view to "defraud the investing public by holding out that various estates illegally possessed" by the company had "marketable title."
The company was consistently trying to change the status of the land under the guise of the amalgamation. The company was indulging in "overreaching the jurisdiction of the High Court."The government pleaded that its intervention application seeking to reject the company's petition for the court's permission for the amalgamation scheme be allowed.
The court adjourned to next week the hearing on the petition.

Real-time bidding is a major feature of the exchange, and one not currently offered by Yahoo's Right Media.
Google has pulled back the curtain on its DoubleClick Ad Exchange, an important step forward in its grand plan to meld search and display advertising.
For ad buyers and sellers, the launch creates a trading pool for display ad inventory that seems destined to rival Yahoo-owned Right Media -- currently the dominant player among exchanges. Hundreds of thousands of AdSense publishers and AdWords advertisers are automatically included in the Google exchange at launch, creating vast demand on both the buy and the sell side. Those large and small AdSense publishers are joined by major publishers who use DoubleClick's DART for Publishers platform for ad serving and yield optimization, and others Google has struck individual relationships with.
One of the platform's key features is the ability for ad networks and agency buyers to bid on inventory in real-time, letting them zero in on impression attributes such as geographic location or the presence of advertiser cookies before placing a bid. Yahoo's Right Media ad exchange does not currently offer bidding in real-time, though it is available through some smaller ad marketplaces.
"It's pretty big news for the industry to get real-time bidding on such a large pool of inventory," said Matt Spiegel, CEO of OMG Digital. "Ultimately this is about getting more transparency and visibility on the buy side, and also taking more control."
The exchange has long been in the works, and indeed has recently enjoyed heavy trading activity by publishers, agencies, and ad network buyers. Spiegel said it's already a significant source of inventory for OMG Digital, which has been using it for about five months. In some cases it's the largest source.
Spiegel added, "We are turning more and more to the exchanges over time, and ultimately at the cost of the ad networks," in particular horizontal networks.
Even so, ad networks represent an important constituent for the exchange, and Google has taken steps to ensure it's hospitable to them. In addition to getting real-time bidding, ad networks and agencies can bring their own ad serving and tracking tools -- a key feature and one some had wondered about, given DoubleClick's ad management products. Also, Google says it has streamlined invoicing and billing, making payments relatively transparent for "thousands of publishers and thousands of advertisers."
Neal Mohan, VP of product management and captain of Google's display ambitions, called the exchange "a major milestone in Googles's display ad vision."
"We want to democratize access to display advertising and make it as acceptable and open to all participants as search," he told ClickZ yesterday. "Just as quickly as you can get a test campaign up and running on search...you can get a display ad running across a number of display ad networks in a number of minutes."
Mohan emphasized the controls available to publishers and ad buyers. Larger publishers using DoubleClick's for ad serving and yield management will be able to automate decisions about whether to sell in-house or through the exchange by setting up base-level CPMs that would trigger an exchange sale.
Meanwhile smaller publishers participating in the exchange through AdSense will be able to control their involvement through the AdSense interface.
Mohan pointed out small- to mid-sized advertisers that may lack creative resources to build banners can use Google's Display Ad Builder product, which launched a year ago as an AdWords feature. According to Mohan, their experience of the exchange will be no different than it is for display ads placed through the existing Google Content Network.
"It'll be seamless," he said. "They will continue to buy on the content network. Now it turns out some inventory they didn't previously have access to will be included."
Exchange rival Right Media said in a statement it hoped to work with new exchanges entering the market.
"The industry will be well served if all exchanges embrace the values we cherish, and will help promote rather than restrict the spirit of openness and the resulting transparency and liquidity of supply, demand and data in the industry," it said.

No such luck for Fineout. As he faces the possible end of his career in journalism, Fineout flashes back to his early days at the Tallahassee Democrat when the newspaper business first began venturing onto the internet in the early to mid-'90s. He remembers thinking that it didn't make sense to offer the newspaper's content for free, and he heard some business-side employees voicing the same opinion.
He wonders if the early decision by the industry not to charge for stories might be costing him his job today. But he knows it's a question to which he'll never have an answer. "You can't put that genie back in the bottle," he says.
Fineout's buyout likely won't give him much comfort. For every year he has worked, he will receive two weeks' salary. With four years under his belt, he's likely looking at just eight weeks' pay. Even longtime employees like Phil Long won't get much severance, since the Herald is putting the maximum buyout amount at 32 weeks' pay.
He says he's concerned about his family's future, but he's not in dire straits. His wife is employed, and he's confident he'll find gainful employment with the skills he's honed as a reporter — a job he expected to have his entire working life.
"I'm not leaving journalism," he says. "Journalism is leaving me."

More than half of migraine sufferers are affected by weather. The most common weather factors that affect migraines are:
Major weather changes over one or two days
Changes in barometric pressure
Some migraines attributed to weather are not related to it at all. Many people tend to pin their headaches on weather patterns, when other triggers, such as excessive consumption of caffeine or changes in sleep patterns, may actually be the cause. If weather truly is a trigger for you, watch the forecasts. Then you can take preventive medications when troublesome weather lies ahead. Please consult with your health care provider about the general use of preventive medications for migraine.

Why Sigma Designs (SIGM) Stock Is Falling In After-Hours Trading Today
NEW YORK (TheStreet)- Sigma Designs
(SIGM - Get Report) shares are down -4.5% to $3.85 in after-hours trading on Wednesday following the release of the company's first quarter earnings results.
The company reported net revenue down -29.8% to $36.9 million from the same period a year ago.
The company also reported a net loss of $5 million, or -14 cents per diluted share for the quarter, 1 cent better than analysts had anticipated.
Must Read: Warren Buffett's 25 Favorite Stocks
TheStreet Ratings team rates SIGMA DESIGNS INC as a Sell with a ratings score of D. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation:
"We rate SIGMA DESIGNS INC (SIGM) a SELL. This is driven by several weaknesses, which we believe should have a greater impact than any strengths, and could make it more difficult for investors to achieve positive results compared to most of the stocks we cover. Among the areas we feel are negative, one of the most important has been a generally disappointing historical performance in the stock itself."
Highlights from the analysis by TheStreet Ratings Team goes as follows:- SIGM's stock share price has done very poorly compared to where it was a year ago: Despite any rallies, the net result is that it is down by 29.38%, which is also worse that the performance of the S&P 500 Index. Investors have so far failed to pay much attention to the earnings improvements the company has managed to achieve over the last quarter. Naturally, the overall market trend is bound to be a significant factor. However, in one sense, the stock's sharp decline last year is a positive for future investors, making it cheaper (in proportion to its earnings over the past year) than most other stocks in its industry. But due to other concerns, we feel the stock is still not a good buy right now.
- The company's current return on equity greatly increased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of significant strength within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Semiconductors & Semiconductor Equipment industry and the overall market, SIGMA DESIGNS INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.
- SIGM, with its decline in revenue, underperformed when compared the industry average of 3.2%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues fell by 12.9%. The declining revenue has not hurt the company's bottom line, with increasing earnings per share.
- The gross profit margin for SIGMA DESIGNS INC is currently very high, coming in at 71.30%. It has increased significantly from the same period last year. Despite the strong results of the gross profit margin, SIGM's net profit margin of 3.25% significantly trails the industry average.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 235.58% to $13.08 million when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, SIGMA DESIGNS INC has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of 3.91%.

Stay connected with people to serve them, he tells MLAs
Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi told elected MLAs and MPs that the entire blame for the party's poor performance in the recent Uttar Pradesh assembly elections could not be laid at the doors of those Ministers whose controversial public statements were said to have adversely affected the chances of those in the electoral fray. They may have contributed, he said, to the results but not entirely. Party sources said that he said that he had hoped the Congress would get more than 20 per cent of the votes that would have translated into 125 seats – instead it got about 11 per cent and 28 seats. The Ministers' statements, he stressed, could not have led to a loss of 10 per cent votes — and therefore, it was important, to look elsewhere.
The three Union Ministers in question — Salman Khurshid, Sriprakash Jaiswal and Beni Prasad Verma — were all present at the meeting. While Mr. Khurshid spoke without referring to the reservation issue that he had highlighted during the polls, Mr. Jaiswal defended his statements on the possible imposition of President's Rule, even saying that the Congress had done better in the phases that followed his controversial remarks. Mr. Verma chose to remain silent. The subject came up as the Ministers came in from a great deal of criticism over the two days that Mr. Gandhi is conducting a stocktaking exercise.
On Friday, Mr. Gandhi who held two sessions — the first with the just elected MLAs and the second with the MPs — focussed on what could be done in the future rather than on recriminations. Indeed, on the second day of the review of the party's performance in the U.P. polls, and ahead of a thorough revamp of the Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee (UPCC), Mr. Gandhi suggested that the State should be divided into four zones for better management and control, in the way the Youth Congress has already done in the State.
Currently, the Congress has 115 district and city committees across 75 districts of the State, which include 73 district committees and 42 city-level committees in big districts. But in as vast a State as U.P, state presidents have traditionally found it difficult to monitor all the units and grassroots level functionaries from Lucknow. Now the party is considering whether there should be one State president and four zonal coordinators under him or her or one State co-ordinator and four State presidents. One view is that there is need for one prominent face across the State, while the other feels that one State president will replicate the current situation.
In the first session with the MLAs, Mr. Gandhi said that they should not expect "kid gloves treatment from now on." Those who have "stayed connected," he said, "have sailed through. Do not forget the name of your grassroots workers after you win. Stay connected with people, not with a purpose of winning elections but to serve them." Unity of purpose and action in the State legislature will help them forcefully put forward their views, he added.
Keywords: U.P. polls, Rahul Gandhi, Cong. review meeting

I dont tie the liner as tight as i can get it because it wont take long to kill your foot so I get it tight but not overly tight...you'll have to decide what that is for you. Then I tighten my boots as tight as I can get them. I like them to be solid.

I got a great deal on the Northwave legend on brociety. When I had regular laces I would make them too tight or too lose, it would take a good 10x before I could figure how tight to make them. On the legends I've figured out how tight to make em by my 4th day this season. I like their two zone system as well. Boot tech has come a long way for me. I keep the inner liner to medium since it seemed to tighten up more as the day went on. Bottom part slightly less than super tight since I have fred flintstone wide feet. And the top medium since I have giant calves.

Social Security By Bankrate.com
Begin collecting Social Security Uncle Sam gives you a choice. You can begin receiving Social Security benefits early, at the age of 62, or at your "official" retirement age. The official age is computed based on the year you were born, but it's between 65 and 67. If you choose to receive benefits early, they will be reduced to account for the longer period over which you'll be paid. You could come out ahead, depending on how long you live. Here's some guidance for transitioning into the world of government benefits.

The discipline of the Designation of Origin wine in Italy dates back to 1963, in particular the law 930/1963, which identifies for the first time the quality levels of the pyramid, placing at the top of the Denomination of Controlled and Guaranteed Origin (DOCG).
Denomination of Controlled and Guaranteed Origin (DOCG)
In fact you had to wait until 1980 to finally see the new DOCG operating. In 1980 alone, in fact, after Vino Nobile di Montepulciano DOCG, Brunello di Montalcino and Barolo and Barbaresco born. They were 10 DOCG in 1992, when the law 164 has reorganized the discipline, on the basis of Regulation EEC Nr.823 of 1987. We come to 2011, when with the DM 30/11 / 2011 the specifications established for all appellations of Origin Italian are published, amended to conform to the EC Reg. no. 1234/2007. This event led to the approval of 17 DOCG in 2011 only, which followed 13 approved in 2010. For comparison, consider that in 2009 only 2 were approved, and in 2008 only 4. Today (31 / 07/2014) there are 73 DOCG.
The region with more DOCG is Piedmont, with 16 DOCG, followed by Veneto (14) and Tuscany (11). At the bottom, Sicily, Sardinia and Basilicata count one DOCG and Trentino-Alto Adige, Valle d'Aosta, Molise and Calabria Liguria none. In the latter regions some DOC would have unlimited features for maximum qualifying, so we expect that these gaps will be filled in the near future.
Appellations of Controlled Origin (DOC)
The DOC, in addition to the requirements for IGT, have to come from more demarcated areas, they can not be produced with grapes for wines IGT, they must be subjected to physico-chemical and organoleptic examination during the production. They can also be characterized by sub-areas or smaller areas depending on the regulations. They can mention specifications of the product (ex. Classico, Superiore) if required by the regulations.
The first DOC were established in 1966, Ischia DOC (03/03/1966), Frascati DOC (03/03/1966), Bianco di Pitigliano DOC (3/28/1966) and Arpilia DOC (13/05/1966). So the palm of the First Italian DOC is shared by the Frascati DOC Ischia.
Later it has been noted a progressive increase in the number of names, undoubtedly due to the increasing interest in the identification and discovery of products and especially of their quality. In 1992, time of re-ordering of the names in the Italian EU regulation of 1987, the DOC were already 193.
With the evolution of the international wine market, there has been an explosion of the "marketing" of the names that are still created in order to "distinguish" a particular area by its "competitors" or "enhance" a territory or a product. The result are DOC 330 (30/11/2011) of which at least fifty marginal, little or no significant or even superfluous, since in many cases comprising whole regions and / or uneven areas in terms of cultivation and tradition.
At that time, with the DM 30.11.2011, the specifications established designations Italian are deposited, in compliance with the EC Reg. No. 1234/2007. From that date on, the introduction of a new name is subject to approval by the European Union and indeed the spread of names appears to have stopped, except of course the updates due to bug fixes or whatever.
However, with regard to the understanding of a complex subject such as enography, the system of Appellations of Origin, of which the DOC area represents by far the biggest group, make us the great service of being able to organize and catalog Italian wines according to regions, provinces, varieties and types, living us a complete picture of national production that eventually allowed to build the rational infrastructure of this site.
Typical Geographical Indication (IGT)
The D.P.R 930 of 12/7/1063 envisage three types of designations of origin for wine: the terms "simple", the terms "controlled" and the names "guaranteed". As a result, the Law Nr.164 of February the 10th, 1992 stated that the so-called names "simple", ie designating the wines made from grapes "by the traditional grape varieties of the corresponding production areas, vinified in accordance with local, fair and consistent of those areas" without further checks, were renamed as IGT, namely wines with Typical Geografical Indication.
Even if these denominations are less "strict" then those of DOC and DOCG wines, and then placing much larger limits of the area and the range of varieties, looser regulation in terms of viticulture, winemaking, bottling and labeling, since there is no obligation to chemical physical control or sensory examinations, and not allowing the transfer directly to their DOCG wines, these names are useful, however, to define and classify the wines according to the Italian territory.
With DM 30.11.2011, the consolidated disciplinary Italian designations are deposited, in compliance with the EC Reg. No. 1234/2007. At that time there are 118 IGT therefore, unchanged in number until today(07/31/2014). From that date onwards, the introduction of a new name is subject to approval by the European Union and indeed the spread of names appears to have had a set back.
More than once the IGT offer producers the option to "interpret" the wine and the territory without strict constraints in the specification with a designation. This has meant that, despite the lower position in the so-called "quality pyramid" more than a few important noble wine fall under this classification.

Reverend Billy Arrested After Trying to Stop Removal of 130-Year-Old 'Bendy Tree'
Activist preacher and frequently arrested person Reverend Billy Talen took another trip to the Tombs this weekend, this time for trying to halt the removal of a 130-year-old, much-beloved, very crooked tree in Tompkins Square Park. As East Village blog EV Grieve was first to report, the tree, known affectionately as "Bendy Tree," was condemned by an arborist with the city Parks Department, found to be "structurally unsound" and a danger to the public. Image via Facebook Reverend Billy stands atop a Parks Department truck during the demolition.

A center swirl of 14 karat gold provides the centerpiece of these highly polished sterling silver earrings. Traditional native designs - a horse, bear paw, lizard, rabbit, turtle and hummingbird - are carved out of the sterling silver, adding a sense of spirit and extra eye appeal. To add to the amount of detail, the sterling silver also is etched in a texturally interesting pattern. A special set of earrings straight from the heart of the Southwest. Earrings measure 7/8" long x 7/8" wide and have a post and clutch closure. Made in America.
Like all fine jewelry, Carolyn Pollack Sterling Silver Jewelry should be handled carefully. Store jewelry in a plastic bag, dry and wrapped in tissue paper, when not being worn or displayed. Clean sterling silver with a silver polishing cloth when necessary, but never subject to chlorine, silver dips, chemical solutions or ultrasonic cleaners, as these substances can cause the genuine gemstones to discolor. Never wear jewelry in a swimming pool.

Tip: Men's clothing for long and short waists
Men with longer waists should tuck in their dress shirts and wear double breasted jackets to avoid looking too lengthy. While men with shorter waists should wear shirts pulled out. Pullovers are also a good option for men with short waists. Shop around, there are a variety of different options in men's clothing for all shapes and sizes.
Tip: Don't make your own men's suit
Men often think that they can become men's fashion designers and mix and match jackets and pants. If you bought a suit, it is usually best to just play it safe and wear both pieces together. There is nothing worse than a man wearing a wool jacket with polyester pants thinking that the two go together simply because they are both black.
Tip: Socks with sandals
This is by far one of the most discussed men's clothing topics. Some men still sware that it is ok to wear socks with sandals. However, almost any woman alive will tell you that this is not an attractive look. Pick one or the other, not both.

To The Democratic Party: When You're Wrong, You're Wrong
I would be absolutely remiss if I did not take the Democratic Party to task today.
It appears as though members of the Democratic Party (namely Sen. Charles Schumer, head of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee) have been successful in convincing Senate candidate Paul Hackett in dropping out of the race.
For those who may not be familiar with him, Paul Hackett is a veteran of the Iraq war, and he came thisclose to defeating Rep. Jean Schmidt (R-Ohio) in a Congressional race.
Recently, Hackett has been running for the Senate; he and Rep. Sharrod Brown have been campaigning to win the nomination in the primary.
But under pressure from Chuck Schumer and others, Hackett has withdraw from the race. Apparently some Deomcrats think Sharrod Brown will have a better chance in the general campaign against Republican Sen. Mike Dewine.
To Schumer and any other Democrat involved in this farce: who do you think you are, to tell Paul Hackett to withdraw from the race?
Here is a man who went and served his country in combat. To his credit, he wants to serve his country some more, this time as a United States Senator. And you want to tell him no thanks, his service isn't wanted anymore?
These are NOT the values of the Democratic Party I know and love, Chuck Schumer.
Comment(s) »
Being from Ohio, I feel badly for Paul Hackett. Being encouraged to run, and then slapped down when the dnc found someone they liked better was pretty dirty.
I can definatley understand why he's so upset! -
There you go. Wrong as usual. You said "when the DNC found someone they liked better."
For the record, the DNC (that would be the Democratic National Committee) was NOT involved in the Hackett situation. Howard Dean has already spoken out and said how upset he is at what transpired, and if the Democrats continue to do stuff like this, they will lose elections. He hit the nail on the head!
It was not the national Democratic Party involved in this. It was Chuck Schumer and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (those are the folks responsible for helping get Democrats elected to the Senate).
HAHA! We 'hicks' here in Ohio call our political parties dnc and rnc, respectively.They even do it on the affiliate news stations! Just a little local slang, which did kind of obsfucate my comment.

Sadly it's came to the point where I'm finding this site very unfulfilling.
That doesn't mean I'll be completely gone, mind you. I'll still check back every now and then, post for potential voice actors etc.
Expect a lot of my new animated stuff to appear on my Youtube channel: www.youtube.com/user/Zeurel

Unbiased Reviews by Real People
Good Ninja, Bad Ninja, I�m The One With The Spatula Welcome to the world of Ninja Burger. Where else can you order fast food online and have it delivered in record time? Seriously folks, these guys had my delivery on my kitchen table within five minutes of hanging up the phone. Strangely, they didn�t knock or ring the bell; they snuck in � undetected � left the food and exited. Not an easy thing to do with a house full of animals (and kids). Kudos� to the honorable Kenshiro Aette, founder of the �fast as the wind� fast food palace � Ninja Burger. Ninja Like Anyone who is a fan of martial arts should check this site out. It�s just jammed packed with goodies � and there�s even cool Ninja Burger games coming in the near future. For now you can get a sneak peak when you check out the site and look for Ninja Fun on the right side menu. Please, don�t forget to Kiss The Ninja So who are these guys? Surely there aren�t Ninja�s running around delivering fast food� Think again. These guys are fast but one ninja made what could have been a fatal mistake. He dropped his Blockbuster video card when he was jumping from the kitchen window. Herman Johnson, that doesn�t really sound like a Ninja-type name to me. I was expecting something a bit more�. a bit more�. Japanese. I am sure Herman will be reprimanded for this � don�t be too hard on him Kenshiro Aette � he�s still a N.I.T. [Ninja In Training] Fashionable Ninjas So you just can�t get enough Ninja Wear? When the guys from Ninja Burger aren�t behind the grill or delivering food faster than a speeding bullet they kick back and chill in one of their very own Ninja Burger t-shirts. Yes, that�s right. Act now and you can choose from two awesome styles in sizes ranging from small to XXXL. Prices vary depending on size and delivery location. Maybe I�ll be luck enough to grace the Readers Photos section some day. By the way, an XXL shirt will only set you back $17.00 � including shipping and handling. That�s not much when you consider the prestige and sheer awe you will receive when you were it out in public. The shirts aren�t cheap either � they are very thick, don�t shrink and draw a lot of attention. They even accept PayPal. Are these guys cool or what? Ninja�s Love To Play Turf War Feel up to the challenge of defeating the out of shape, under paid, barbaric oafs as Samurai Burger? Set forth on an epic adventure in Turf Wars. Capture more of the neighborhood and win � help destroy the sloppy samurai once and for all. Silly samurai � burgers are for Ninja�s. Nin-Ja-Toe Be sure to play a few games of Nin-Ja-Toe, a ruthless modern version of that classic game, Tic-Tac-Toe. Beat the Ninja and be awarded � but lose and find yourself at their mercy. Don�t worry, the fun doesn�t stop there, you can receive your very own, limited edition, ultra secret Ninja name. Be on the look out for up coming games � 9th Level Games and Ninja Burger are working on Ninja Burger: The Role Playing Game. Until then be sure to check out the great animation available so far. Mommy, I Want The Ninjas At My Birthday Party When you check out the site � and you will or you�ll find yourself incurring the wrath of the ninja�s - be sure to check the new menu items. My personal favorite is the Samurai Chicken Sandwich and the kids go nuts over the new Little Humans Menu. Ninja�s are available for birthday parties but they assume no responsibility for any damage, loss of limbs or other injury.. Children must be told not to move suddenly � or they will startle the Ninja � which will result in physical harm. Employment Opportunities At Ninja Burger If you aren�t happy at your current place of employment why not try out for the Ninja Burger Team. Don�t worry about any past criminal involvement, you don�t tell � they don�t ask. Some of the perks are free uniforms including Tabi boots and sword, exciting workplace and employee meals. If you are interested please fill out the online application. There�s even a 401K plan in effect � what more could you want? Besides - I hear the Christmas parties are killer. The Bottom Line So what is Ninja Burger really about? Humor, fast food and fun. The site is simple and easy to navigate but at the same time you can get lost in the pages and pages of pictures, games and events. Another great thing � no pop up banners every two minutes. The team at Aethereal Forge have done a tremendous job with this site � it loads quickly but isn�t short on graphics or photos. There are also links to the other Aethereal Forge sites listed and clickable from the top of the page. Those sites are Dark Park, Decay, Gamegrene, Ironclast and Power Grrrl. All of them are extremely interesting and certainly not run of the mill. All too often humor / parody sites are created and the link is passed from person to person until it slowly fades away. This site is constantly changing and always has new photos of the Ninja team in action. I book marked it the first time I came across it and check it out about three times a week. I�ve never encountered it being down for an upgrade or had any troubles getting around the site in general. No broken links, no banner ads and once again I have to mention � no pop up ads. I spend a lot of time on the internet and see a ton of websites � I don�t return to many of them but Ninja Burger is one of my personal favorites. It get my highest Freak Rating of 10 Stars � or in this case 10 Shurikens. Visit the hardest working Ninja's today at www.ninjaburger.com. Ok, so Ninja�s aren�t really going to show up with fast food. I just had to write a review about this site � I was in tears from laughing so hard. [sorry honorable Ninja] Regardless of what you�re subconscious tells you; no Ninja will visit your residence. No Ninja were hurt, tortured or mutilated in the writing of this review. All reviews are Ninja cruelty free and contain no recycled Ninja parts. Over one hundred million served� are you gonna argue with a Ninja?
