Making Homemade Wine - Home Wine Makers Reference Guide - Winemaking Recipes and More at Honeycreek Vineyard and Orchards.
Always Remember Wine making is a Art Form and as any art form patience becomes a key
component so learn it and benefit from it when your making your home made wine. Join us in one of the best and most exciting hobbies you can do, winemaking. Learn the basic structure
of how to make wine in your own free time by reading our extensive library Wine 101. It along with the rest of the site will give you a complete look into the wine making process as
well as the wine makers tools required to finish the job with the least amount of hassle. Wine making or making your own homemade wines can be as simple or as complicated as you desire
to make it but the basic process anyone can follow. As with anything in life it can be kept to the basics or you can go all out, make your own wine, learn how today to turn that fruit
you grow into your own wine with your personalized touch. Come back often as the site tends to change during the different seasons. Enjoy your stay and I really hope to here about your
home made wine.
Whether your just getting started in wine making or have been making wine for numerous years you know there is a lot of information out there on the subject. You have more than likely been reading someone elses style of making wine and then gone to another site or book and read something totally different than you just finished reading. You sit back and ask yourself why the difference.
Well it boils down to style, the art of making the wine. Though wine has been made for more years then you or I have been alive and it is true the basics are pretty much set in stone but the style is what sits all of them apart. Just like a painting no two artists can look at or dream of the same picture and produce a carbon copy of it.
Wine is the same, ever buy a bottle of wine and just love it only to go back the next year to purchase some more of your new found love and it does not taste the same as you remember? Grapes or if you are making a country wine will change year to year it is the wine maker or as I like to say the Artist that brings out the best the fruit of choice has to offer. By doing this you not only create something no one else will but you also give your style, your touch to the wine.
Though wine can be created on a budget from almost anything you can eat if you really want to produce something you can be proud to share with family and friends there is one thing you must learn above all and simply put it is patience. Yes you have heard I am sure about a 1 month wine but I promise you this will not be the best nor even close to a good wine. Just about the earliest a wine comes of age and this is a country wine (fruit) is around the 6 month mark, this is pushing it. Most generally a country wine or a white wine will not come together for at least 1 year, reds more closer to 2.
Now I want to stress here that this site is only one of many out there, I do not claim nor shall I ever do so that my way is the only correct way. Remember I stated wine making is a form of art so as with any art there are numerous ways for one to take their master piece to the final stage this site is only about one way of doing so. I do not wish anyone to think I am a master wine maker as I do not believe in the wording. It is my humble opinion that no one person can master anything as to me if you claim that title then you claim there is nothing more you can be taught and I know there is much more I can learn.
With all that in mind you might ask yourself why is this site live or what does this site offer?
For the first question it began many years ago when I first got started in making wine. I kept numerous notes on my endeavors in the process along with findings from books that I had read and with sites on the net I visited. It soon became clear that I had way to much information for my feeble mind to process plus the fact of keeping all the notes organized. So for my own personal usage I made a local site to catalog all the wine making information I had collected. This was great, now I could flip through all easily on the computer to remind myself of things I have read and or done in the past. Notes and remarks I had written into recipes, tutorials and so on.
Then one day a friend of mine, fellow wine maker ask me why I did not publish all these notes. Well the thought of a book never entered my mind but I had a thought, why not publish it via the net as a website. That was the start of it and has grown ever since averaging around 50 emails a day from wine makers world wide along with some radio talk show hosts. This is my baby and I love taking care of this site just about as much as making my wines.
What does Honeycreek offer? Nothing more than the shared knowledge of myself, friends and the users that contribute there talents to it. If you like the site, if it helps you in making your wine then I have succeeded far more than I had ever dreamed of as to me to help someone is the greatest payment I can hope for.
Good Luck in your undertakings and God Bless one and all. Please feel free to join the community as we all benefit from the questions or comments you may have.

Mamaw Shapiro is Robbie's grandmother, who has a problem using her new computer. She lives with her husband Maury and only appeared in the episode The Birthweek Song. She is shown to be a complaining individual, and her conversations with her husband are most often negative. When she meets Cat, who she does not seem to like, she gets annoyed and asks Robbie if they're dating. She tries to hook him up with another girl, Brenda. She seems to not be very tech savvy. In fact, she knows extremely little about technology. Her real name is Sylvia. She is portrayed by Renée Taylor.
- She lives in apartment number 327.
- Her screen name on video chat is Mammaw327.
- Her personality is very similar to Sylvia Fine's personality (another role played by Taylor) from the 90's sitcom The Nanny.
- Mamaw hates Cat because she does not like the fact that she dyed her hair red, as she thinks no girl would dye her hair that colour unless she had psychological problems.
- In How Trina Got In, Robbie mentioned that the skin on her feet is so thick, you have to use both hands to rub each foot. Robbie made Tori massage his Mamaw's left foot because she was in a lot of pain.
- She has a husband named Morty just like when she was in the 1990's sitcom The Nanny.

Along The Silk Road
Journeying Along the Silk Road
As the annual Festival of the Arts at Southwest Virginia Community College approaches (April 21 – May 2), attendees may want to orient themselves to the locale of the Silk Road.
Marco Polo made the Silk Road famous in the West, but he was not the first or the last traveler to marvel at the places he saw. In fact, the Silk Road had been in existence some 1,500 years before Marco Polo's time (1254-1324) and has been in more or less continuous use since then.
What exactly is the Silk Road? More than a single highway, the Silk Road is an entire network of routes, both overland and sea, connecting the East with the West. The routes allowed China to trade silk and tea for glassware, silver, gold, and horses, and became the vehicle for exchange of languages, beliefs, scientific knowledge, and cultures. Although the routes had been followed since about 300 BCE, the term "Silk Road" was coined only very recently, in 1877, by a German geographer to describe the routes of exchange.
The silk routes connected Beijing and other eastern cities with the Roman Empire at Jerusalem and Constantinople and, from there, with numerous points in the Mediterranean. A list of the cities on the various silk routes is available at www.wikipedia.org, illustrating the very wide reach of ancient commerce and communications. Countries (in today's geography) linked included Italy, Turkey, Egypt, Oman, Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Russia, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka, Japan, Korea, and China.
The armchair traveler has many options for exploring this exotic part of the world through the words of other adventurous travelers.
Denis Belliveau and Francis O'Donnell lead the reader "In the Footsteps of Marco Polo", their two-year journey to trace the travels of Marco, his father Niccolo and uncle Maffeo Polo. Taken in the early 1990s, the latter journey was fraught with peril and involved not a little intrigue, baksheesh, and careful playing of one warlord against another. Luckily, they survived to write their story, which is the companion to a PBS film. This is an easy-to-read, beautifully illustrated account which offers an overview of the entire route taken by the Polos, and interesting commentary on the contemporary state of affairs across Asia.
Greg Mortenson
Greg Mortenson has always been a traveler. Raised in Africa as the child of medical missionaries, he became interested in mountain climbing and tackled some of the world's most difficult peaks. But his failed attempt at climbing K2, one of the world's highest, led to his greatest success. Stumbling into a tiny, poor village in eastern Pakistan near the foot of K2, the sick, emaciated climber found a caring people who nursed him back to health. To thank them, he embarked on his life's journey to build schools for the children of Pakistan and now Afghanistan, a story he tells in "Three Cups of Tea" and "Stones into Schools".
Christina Lamb
Lamb is a British journalist who worked in Afghanistan in the 1990s. After September 11, 2001, she decided to return to Afghanistan to see how the country had been affected by the rule of the Taliban, a journey she recounts in "The Sewing Circles of Herat". Each chapter, recalling a separate episode in her journey, is woven into a tapestry connected by smuggled letters from a young teacher describing what life is like for one whose livelihood and opportunity are stripped away by the repressive Taliban regime. Lamb is well acquainted with many Afghan leaders and paints fascinating portraits of them, including Hamid Karzai, the exiled king, several tribal warlords, as well as ordinary citizens caught up in horrible circumstances. In the title story, she accompanies girls who meet ostensibly in a sewing circle to socialize while they sew but, behind closed doors, open their sewing baskets to reveal books and lessons, a practice forbidden by the Taliban.
Rory Stewart
Stewart, a young Scottish professor of history, had walked across Iran, Pakistan, India and Nepal to gain a closer understanding of the people and cultures of the region, but was interrupted in his journey by the events of September 11, 2001 and not allowed to enter Afghanistan. After months of persistent effort, he obtained the necessary approvals, and set out to traverse the country from Herat in the west to Kabul on the eastern border. For his route, he followed in the footsteps of Babur, the 15th century emperor, from whose writings he often quotes. His knowledge of the region's history and its languages, as well as his interest in the people he meets, enable him to survive a sometimes harrowing journey, and to give the reader greater insight into the nationless character of the Afghan peoples. Although not everyone exhibited the famous code of hospitality for travelers, Stewart found many generous souls who shared their meager meals and accommodations with him and inspired him with their humanity in the face of unspeakable poverty.
Vikram Seth
After two years of graduate work at Nanjing University, Vikram Seth hitchhiked from Nanjing on the east coast to Heaven Lake on the Silk Road, then south into Tibet and Nepal, and finally to his family home in New Delhi. "From Heaven Lake: travels through Sinkiang and Tibet" is the story of his journey and his encounters with nomadic Muslims, Chinese officials, Buddhists, fellow students, and other travelers. This beautifully written, brief account is a most interesting portrait of China.
Joesph Needham
Simon Winchester, in "The Man Who Loved China: the fantastic story of the eccentric scientist who unlocked the mysteries of the Middle Kingdom", tells the fascinating story of Joseph Needham, the brilliant Cambridge scientist who unlocked the most closely held secrets of China--long the world's most technologically advanced country. This married Englishman, a freethinking intellectual, while working at Cambridge University in 1937, fell in love with a visiting Chinese student, with whom he began a lifelong affair. He became fascinated with China, and embarked on a series of extraordinary expeditions to the farthest frontiers of this ancient empire. He searched everywhere for evidence to bolster his conviction that the Chinese were responsible for hundreds of mankind's most familiar innovations--including printing, the compass, explosives, suspension bridges, even toilet paper--often centuries before the rest of the world. His dangerous journeys took him across war-torn China to far-flung outposts, consolidating his deep admiration for the Chinese people. After the war, Needham began writing what became a seventeen-volume encyclopedia, "Science and Civilisation in China". Listen to the audio version of this. Winchester's expert reading makes this biography un-put-downable.
Rob Gifford
Route 312 is the Chinese Route 66. It flows 3,000 miles, passing through the factory towns of the coastal areas, through the rural heart of China, then up into the Gobi Desert, where it merges with the Old Silk Road. "China Road" witnesses every part of the social and economic revolution that is turning China upside down. In this surprising book, radio journalist Gifford, a fluent Mandarin speaker, takes Route 312 from its start in the boomtown of Shanghai to its end on the border with Kazakhstan. Gifford reveals the rich mosaic of modern Chinese life in all its contradictions, as he considers the crucial questions that all of us are asking about China: Will it really be the next global superpower? Is it as solid and as powerful as it looks from the outside? And who are the ordinary Chinese people, to whom the 21st century is supposed to belong?
Enjoying armchair travel along the Silk Road is the perfect way to experience the romance and mystery of ancient times and, at the same time, connect the dots between today's hot spots and gain a fuller sense of the reasons for contemporary conflicts in this part of the world, and of the challenges as well as opportunities to come.

Hotels apartments b&b and residence in Amalfi coast Italy
Amalfi Coast, "La Divina" [+]
The landscape is made of sea and mountains, with creeks and coves often attainable only by sea, such as for example the wonderful cave, grotta dello Smeraldo in Conca dei Marini and Furore fiord. In some areas nature is completely uncontaminated. The area is occupied by LattariMountains, of calcareous nature: the highest mountain is Monte S. Angelo a Torre Pizzi (1425 m). [read more]
The Coast is characterised by the typical cultivations on the terraced land where the most important product is lemon and other citruses. Lemons are mostly sweet; they can also be eaten in slices, as a dessert, with or without sugar. A legend tells that the inhabitants of Minori convinced the Pope to give them back the bishopric giving him as a present a basket with lemons and other citruses. Lemons are used for cakes and to make the "limoncello", a traditional yellow liqueur famous all over the world.
Amalfi Coast is made of thirteen towns along the road that goes from the Gulf of Salerno to that of Naples. Creeks, coves and cliffs on the sea: the variegated landscape enchants all the visitors that come to these towns, Praiano, Amalfi, Ravello, Scala, Tramonti, Furore, Agerola, Minori, Maiori, Cetara, Vietri sul Mare. Each of these towns has its treasure made of lemons, villas, gardens, sea, beaches, smells. Stefania Maffeo

Hm, fair point. But those Adam Hughes covers are dreadful. Can that guy do anything other than sameface and big boobs? Funny how he's held up as a great artist (Terry Dodson isn't much different, admittedly, but I think his work can look better) whereas Greg Land is criticised for much the same thing (sameface and big boobs, not to mention his inability to draw the human form).
Reading New Crusaders as it comes out in monthly editions. Really quite interested to see how it goes, and I like how a non-white, female character seems to be getting a lot of push in marketing (even if she's not had all that much spotlight in the comics yet, bar a part in Issue 3).
And today I took delivery of Honour Among Punks, a collaboration between Guy Davis (Sandman Mystery Theatre, B.P.R.D., etc.) and Gary Reed (I dunno) which is like a punky take on Sherlock Holmes... where Holmes and Watson's analogues are female. Looking forward to getting my teeth into it. Yummy, comics as old as me.
November 10th, 2012, 04:02 PM #902
That Guy Davis book sounds cool. I'll be interested to hear what you think of it.
I'm not sure what my next series will be now that I'm done with Fables. I have complete sets of Queen and Country and Gotham City Central and Criminal on my shelves, and they all look tempting.
November 10th, 2012, 04:27 PM #903
I wanted the series to have a couple of things not seen much in comics at the time: a strong female lead whose focus was her character and not her breast size, and also making it a fantastic piece for the punk scene I was into
November 16th, 2012, 11:46 PM #904
Speaking of stuff with a great female lead character...I read the first two omnibii of Greg Rucka's Queen and Country over the past couple of days. Really good stuff. A spy book that doesn't go all Hollywood James Bond, but takes a more realistic approach to how the intelligence field operates. My only gripe is that the art is inconsistent. They rotate a new artist in with each new story arc, so you get three artist per omnibus. They've been either hit or miss with me so far. Some, like Steve Rolston and Brian Hurtt, have been great, while others have been a total let down.
Rucka is great when it comes to writing female protagonists. Between Whiteout, Stumptown and now this, I'd say he's one of the best.
November 17th, 2012, 01:50 AM #905
B.P.R.D.: Plague of Frogs Omnibus 4 arrived on Thursday. I finished it on Thursday.
Guy Davis' art was absolutely amazing in it. Just an awesome collection. Easily the best and most focused of the four so far.
January 22nd, 2013, 04:35 PM #906
Not read a whole lot of comics (for me) lately. I've still got a few to finish, but I have still been reading.
Sabrina the Teenage Witch
The Sabrina series with Holly G! on art (and writing? I can't remember) is probably amongst the best stuff Archie has ever produced, behind maybe the recent Jinx reboot. But the art is consistently good (unlike Dan Parent), the humour's there and I just enjoy it. Yeah, me. Me with the military sci-fi, gory fantasy, violent films and so on. I enjoy a clean comic about a teenage witch and her talking cat. I also think the addition of Shinji, another wizard (who has a magic-related variation on dyslexia, which I think is a nice twist), adds a new dimension to the comics without it being too much like Archie.
Sandman Mystery Theatre
I stayed up until near midnight catching up on this series two weeks ago, reading two arcs (The Face & The Brute, as well as the first issue of The Vamp). I didn't mind the art in The Face or The Brute, though The Face was quite questionable at times with its depictions of the Chinese community, but if you view it with the attitudes of the 1930s/40s, it kind of makes sense, though is no less uncomfortable. The digital re-release is back onto Guy Davis' art, though, which I'm really glad about.
One more issue to go until the end of Volume 1. I'm really enjoying this, both as a send up of popular culture but just as a capes title that intrigues me. Whilst the art can be a little... cheesecake at times (but VERY mild for an Aspen title), I am really enjoying this title.
Judge Dredd (IDW)
There are some who don't quite like this title, but I think it's better than some of the 2000AD stuff I've read. I feel it captures the humour and the wackiness rather well, plus it was great to see Judge Anderson appear in the second issue. She even had her own back-up story.
Okay, I'm buying it. I'm not exactly reading it. Shoot me.
2000AD - Judge Anderson: The Psi-Files Volume 3
Best Judge Anderson collection yet, despite some cheesecake art. Steve Sampson went, over the space of this collection, from an artist I didn't care much for to one I really enjoyed. His work on the Wonderwall (I think) arc was brilliant.
Stephen King's The Dark Tower: The Gunslinger - The Man In Black
Well, that's a mouthful. Whilst it doesn't do much that the novel didn't, I felt Alex Maleev's art brought it to life quite well. I don't think there'll be many more left, now. The Gunslinger is over, so I think we'll get a few related stories (e.g. the current/just-ended Sheemie's Tale) and then they'll call it quits, particularly after Peter David's recent stroke.
Hellboy in Hell
Mike Mignola on writing and art. Hellboy. Lots of talking, not much else right now, but I'm interested to see where it'll go.

Has anyone read Jeff Lemire's "Sweet Tooth"?? Its about a young boy named Gus who is an animal/human hybrid and takes place in a rural post-apocalyptic setting.
This graphic novel (collection of the issues) was recommended to me by the staff at my friendly neighbourhood comic shop and I was blown away. I initially found his art style odd, but it quickly grew on me and fits with the world he is describing. Jeff Lemire has a talent for people and characters, his gritty, off centre style really adds to the creepy feeling you get when reading his books.
I am sorry for being so vague, but its one of those series where you spoil by saying too much. I was lucky to meet the author at the Fan Expo in Toronto last year, he signed all my books and even drew the main character "Gus" inside all my covers!
It is one of only three graphic novels I purchase without reading reviews, Goon and Hellboy being the other 2.

Mind the Gap vol. 1: Intimate Strangers
Blerghlywergly eh. It's pretty good but it's not perfect, and I really don't know what to think about it. It's trying to be one of those Lost-esque Morning Glories titles but it doesn't really manage it too well. Esquejo's art (mostly coloured by Sonia Oback) is rather good, though. Plus it's gone one of those vile, boring, stereotypical English accents.
Chew vol. 2: International Flavour
Eh. Ehhhhhhhh. Average at best. Some rather dodgy choices for the humour, too, including African-Americans with stereotypical accents. And I think they came rather close to a "Black People Love Chicken" joke. Racial stereotyping is funny, isn't it? Oh, wait, it's not. Not sure if I'll continue.
Velocity (1995 3-issue miniseries)
I loved the more recent miniseries, and this one is just as good - there's even an issue in which Image superstar Savage Dragon appears! I found the art a little repetitive at times (okay, we get it, Velocity can look really sad, but do we need the same close up of her face at least once per issue?), but it was surprisingly cheesecake-free considering when it came out (okay, it was a little cheesecakey, but it wasn't as bad as you'd expect for '90s Image title, particularly a Cyber(-)Force spin-off). I liked it quite a bit, though. Always good to have more Velocity.
Alabaster: Wolves
Read all five issues in one night, and then because I want more, I've pre-ordered the hardcover to hopefully help boost the pre-order figures. Really, really good series with some great art and some really good writing. It's certainly different, but in the good way.

Overcoming Weight-Loss Barriers
In This Article:
Certain barriers to weight loss are easy to change. Doing your part from a lifestyle point of view can work wonders. In fact, sometimes making only one change can assist you in shedding pounds.
Enjoy Your Beauty Rest
Are you getting enough vitamin ZZZZ? You need adequate sleep. If you're deprived of sleep regularly, you'll struggle to reach your ideal size. Remember the saying "If you snooze, you lose"? Well, hooray! With weight loss, it's true! Research has shown that if you don't snooze, you gain.
Figuring out how much sleep you need is the question. You require basically the same amount of sleep per night every night. Chances are, the amount you need has remained fairly constant throughout most of your life. You probably need somewhere between six and nine hours of sleep every night.
Don't fret if your sleep needs are on the high end. It's not a "badge of honor" to get by on less sleep. This "getting by" attitude is fattening. During sleep, your body relaxes and releases fat. Without enough sleep, your body's cortisol levels climb and your stress levels are higher, making your body hoard fat.
Plan your life so that you get the sleep your body requires. Yes, some nights you won't get enough sleep, but make them infrequent. Remember, those thin jeans are going to feel so good when they finally fit.
Too Much Fight-or-Flight Adds Pounds
Living a life of continual high stress keeps you fat and can actually increase your weight. Adrenaline is our friend when we need it for emergencies, but it was never intended to be tapped on a day-to-day basis to deal with traffic, anxiety, work-related issues, and deadlines. If you live with stressful deadlines, a high-stress job, a frantic daily commute, and so forth, losing weight will be an uphill battle … and another source of stress!
Your best choice for dealing with continual stress is to schedule time periods when you simply relax. Don't run errands, paint the bedroom, or clean out the garage. Instead, snuggle on the sofa with a good read. Rent funny movies and enjoy some laughs. Give yourself the luxury of really resting, and by the next morning, you may just find that your jeans are looser.
Here's another example: ever wonder why you sometimes lose weight on vacation? It could be that your body is off the adrenaline rush long enough to release fat stores it doesn't need. If you vacation infrequently, make a habit of taking a whole day off whenever you can. Then do nothing productive. Amazing, isn't it? Thin and lazy sometimes go together!
The Dark Side of Caffeine
If you change your morning coffee ritual, you may find yourself getting thinner. Have breakfast with your wake-up cup of coffee. Include some protein, even if it's dinner leftovers. You'll love the results.
A good cup of coffee is certainly a delight and, for some people, is pretty much a necessity for getting the day started. Perhaps you even drink a cup or two mid-afternoon to perk up from an energy slump. The same could be said for tea, caffeinated soda, and diet sodas. Caffeine is tricky. It can prevent you from losing weight and can contribute to weight gain.
How can this be? Caffeine has no calories. But calories are not the only factor in weight loss. Caffeine stimulates the pancreas to, in a sense, overproduce insulin. Insulin is one of your hormones that cause your body to store fat.
Does this mean you should never have a cup of coffee again? Not really. You don't need to give up caffeine, but you could benefit by changing the way you drink caffeinated beverages. The simple rule of thumb is this: have your caffeinated beverage with a meal, not before a meal or all by itself. (By the way, putting cream and sugar in coffee or tea does not count as a meal.) By having food with your beverage, the insulin is not overproduced; it's more balanced.
It is also perfectly fine to give up caffeine entirely. Plenty of people do. They seem to function fine, although their caffeinated friends find this hard to believe. If you want to get off coffee or caffeine, you can wean yourself off slowly or go "cold turkey." In either case, expect to be physically uncomfortable for a while. The most common reactions are lethargy and headaches. They go away after several days to a week.

Phoronix: KDE Ships 4.10 Beta: Better Performance, More QML
The first beta of KDE SC 4.10 was released on Wednesday ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday in the United States...
I'm a big LXDE fan and while that may have almost the fewest options of all, the DE is so basic that it doesn't need much to choose from. This assumes you use it for its intended minimalist in purposes.
That refreshed Air theme looks great. Actually, I like how pretty much everything looks in the preview (not even the super saiyan glow is ruining KDE for me these days, lol), I'm mostly impressed with how nice the Oxygen fonts are turning out... I like them better than Ubuntu's already.
But... that window background color is depressing as hell. Brown-gray. Really. It makes everything look rusty
well, I'm not qualified to judge, maybe there's some deep meaning to it

Styx, REO Speedwagon, & Ted Nugent Heading Back On Tour
Wednesday, February 13, 2013
Styx, REO Speedwagon, and Ted Nugent have announced the first 20 dates of their upcoming group tour. The trek -- once again dubbed "The Midwest Rock 'N' Roll Express -- will kick off on April 18th in Grand Forks, North Dakota and, as of now, wind down on May 19th in Burgettstown -- although more dates will be added soon. Styx guitarist James "J.Y." Young said in the press release announcing the tour: "Due to the overwhelming success of last year's tour, we are going to once again wind up the juggernaut of mega-tainment. Styx, REO, and the Motor City Madman: there aren't enough expletives in my vocabulary to explain how great this is . . . but I'll try. This is going to be . . . awesome!"
REO frontman Kevin Cronin went on to say: "Yo, wake up everybody! Winter is over, the snow is melting, the sun is coming out -- it's time for the second annual REO, Styx, Nugent springtime extravaganza . . . Time to strap on our six strings, pack up the trucks and tour buses, get together with our best rock buddies and go out to have some big fun. See y'all soon."
Ted Nugent added: "When you live the ultimate American guitar player's dream, with the ultimate grinding band, performing the most intense fun songs in the world to the most enthusiastic audiences alive, every tour and every concert is an indescribable celebration. Styx and REO deserve me. Here we come again baby, like dogs in heat!"
Styx guitarist Tommy Shaw told us that the Styx-REO connection stems from his personal friendship with Kevin Cronin: "Kevin and I ran into each other -- we've known each other since, like, 1975, and it's something we'd talked about. We ran into each other in 1998 at a MTV, at some kind of a game show that he and I were both on. And he wound up coming back over and I was doing 7 Deadly Zens at the time, and he said, 'Let me come over and be on your solo album.' So that was kind of the genesis of it, that 'Wouldn't it be cool if we did this?' But so many things had. . . the planets had to align. And they finally did, and once they did it was like a piece of cake."

Calgary Folk Music Festival - Folk Festival Society of Calgary
Thursday July 23rd to Sunday July 26th 2015
The Calgary Folk Music Festival, celebrating its 35th anniversary in 2014, annually features 70 artists from over 16 countries on 9 stages in 100+ distinct concert and unique on-the-fly collaborations at urban, forested retreat of Prince's Island Park to daily audiences of 13,000. Like a mini town, the site boasts an interactive family area, international craft market, global culinary delights, a record tent and tree-shaded beer garden. Our extensive environmental program garnered us a Greener Festival award.
It's a collective sound salvation for musical omnivores; a 4-day long weekend where a diverse, multi-generational audience is immersed in live music in a cool, relaxed atmosphere.
Dubbed by the Globe and Mail as 'one of the seven musical wonders of the world,' it's a genre-bending affair that cleverly brings in roots, world and indie icons and upstarts from around the globe for an ear-opening journey into the heart and soul of the roots and evolution of the music we like to call folk.
The Festival also presents an annual Boot Camp, Song Contest and programs music and art around Calgary, including at its new Inglewood venue - Festival Hall - throughout the year.

woo! yay canonical for going upstream with something this important!
maybe now i can use my wacom bamboo graphics tablet correctly?
Phoronix: Introducing The X.Org Gesture Extension
Earlier this morning Canonical had announced the UTouch Framework, which is their multi-touch framework to be formally introduced with Ubuntu 10.10. Canonical developers crafted up their own multi-touch solution and even their own gesture language for Ubuntu, rather than leveraging any similar free software projects, but -- to some surprise -- it turns out they are now going to try to engage with upstream developers to at least have a formalized extension to the X.Org Server for gestures...
woo! yay canonical for going upstream with something this important!
maybe now i can use my wacom bamboo graphics tablet correctly?
obvious question: does Android have an open-source multi-touch protocol/component that could be ported to X?
just got AppArmor into the kernel too - hopefully this will help address some of the criticism about lack of support for upstream which has been levelled at Canonical recently.
- system boot, with Upstart and initramfs-tools, now adopted by other distributions
- package management, with dpkg, gnome-app-install, update-manager, apt, Synaptic, gdebi, which all goes back into Debian
- installation, with debian-installer and Ubiquity, which is used by Debian and derivatives
- crash reporting, with Apport, used in Fedora
- Linux Terminal Server Project, developed by all distributions, led by Ubuntu for 2.5 years
- QA for Xrandr
- KDE, with System Settings, a printer applet and power manager
- employing some GNOME developers
- bugfixes (patches.ubuntu.com), pushed upstream
- hosting svn.gnome.org, l10n.gnome.org, Inkscape, Miro, etc
- Uncomplicated Firewall
- Uncomplicated VM Builder
- AppArmor, pushing it into the kernel
- infrastructure, with IdeaTorrent, Launchpad, GNU Bazaar
- server software, with PowerNap and Byobu (extension of GNU Screen)
And now with the proposed multitouch X11 extension, people are saying that they 'finally' contributed...
"Chase Douglas of Canonical has just announced the X Gesture Extension to the X.Org development community and he hopes this will become part of the X Input 2.1 extension. The X Gesture Extension is to work hand-in-hand with the recently-drafted X.Org Multi-Touch Protocol Specification that was written by input-expert Peter Hutterer. "
This is definitely an improvement on the past, and worth congratulating Caonical for. But there's still a problem:
"The X Gesture Extension will be found in Ubuntu 10.10, which is using X.Org Server 1.9 but with Canonical's patches. The Multi-Touch and Gesture protocols for X.Org are planned for X Input 2.1, which could come with X.Org Server 1.10 due out early next year."
Announcing that you're going to include it in Ubuntu 10.10 - presumably regardless of whether upstream decides to adopt it or not - is rather holding a gun to the head of the upstream consideration of the proposal. Again, this is still better than previous efforts and that's great, but the best way to do this is to draw up your plans, submit them to upstream at that point, get them adopted, work on the code in upstream, and *then* pull it into Ubuntu once it's released as part of a new X.org.
It's somewhat over-complex, but it seems like a reasonable way to compromise on upstreaming versus what I suspect is some kind of OEM need to have viable multitouch support in 10.10. So that's really not bad at all. Decent job.
Yes Canonical does much to give back to the community, but for example the openssl fiasco some years back shows how bad they are at it sometimes (and yes Debian should have some flogging for this too) where they instead of bringing a patch upstream and getting a comment on why the patch is bad they just incorporate it and leaves their users whith badly broken keys securitywise.
The opposite process, produce a standard out of thin air and then expect people to implement it, almost never works.

A Wind From the West: 1. A Wind From the West
A Wind From the West
"I am turning aside soon. I am going to have a long talk with Bombadil: such a talk as I have not had in all my time. He is a moss-gatherer, and I have been a stone doomed to rolling. But my rolling days are ending, and now we shall have much to say to one another."
Homeward Bound, ROTK
To the dismay of those that stood by, about the body of Saruman a grey mist gathered, and rising slowly to a great height like smoke from a fire, as a pale shrouded figure it loomed over the Hill. For a moment it wavered, looking to the West; but out of the West came a cold wind, and it bent away, and with a sigh dissolved into nothing.
The Scouring of the Shire, ROTK
November 3, III 3019
I stood on the crest of the green ridge that sheltered Bombadil's comfortable house and stared into the afternoon. The light angled below the wide brim of my hat and into my eyes. If anyone had been there to see it, I suppose my face was twisted into a scowl. I watched with a mixture of dread and anticipation for the sign I knew would come today, for the end that my foresight said would happen this afternoon. A good thing I hadn't brought my pipe; I would surely have bitten through the stem.
This was the deeper reason I had tarried near, to wait for this day. I had suspected, of course, where my former colleague would go, and had done nothing to prevent him. No longer my task, I had told myself; they are more than capable now, and they must learn to trust themselves. My heart was confident that Frodo and the others would find their own way to put things right in this corner of Eriador where the last of Mordor's shadow still lingered. But my head wouldn't quit worrying. I could not quite bring myself to be more than a brief stallion's ride away, just in case... If things went badly, if somehow Saruman got the upper hand... How could I live with myself, if something happened now, after everything? And so I had stayed nearby, a visit to Bombadil's house the pretext. Or so I told myself.
A light breeze at my back lifted a few strands of my now completely white hair. For a moment my eyes strayed downward toward the hollow below the hill where Bombadil's neatly thatched, white-washed cottage glowed in the afternoon sun. My host and Goldberry worked in their garden, Tom carrying sheaves of straw and Goldberry packing it carefully over the plants they wished to shelter from the coming winter. Bombadil made a game of it, capering and dancing as he wove between the rows with armloads of yellow straw. He leaped clear over Goldberry's head as she knelt on the loam; I could the echo of her laughter as she reached up and tried to swat him playfully.
Odd, I thought, that something I could feel and know so keenly seemed to be hidden from Iarwain Ben-Adar. Usually Bombadil knew everything. Iarwain could read the thought and memory of anything or anyone who crossed his borders, as clearly as he read the sky or understood the muted utterances of the trees of the Old Forest. It was his compensation, Tom had told me years ago, for gathering moss. His power was concentrated and focused within a barrier that he defined, and inside that circle, he reigned. But the coming event would take place beyond the boundary of the small land he had chosen as his realm. Not far, but far enough so Iarwain's sight was clouded.
My eyes rose as I looked toward the Shire. I knew not how, or precisely why Saruman would leave behind his mortal form this day; I knew only that it would happen, and violently. And Tom, if he felt it, expressed no interest in the event. Curumo had come but once to this little hollow of Middle Earth to visit, according to Iarwain, and had stayed only one day.
"He had more important tasks than to tarry here and listen to nonsense and riddles," Bombadil had laughed when I inquired about it.
The breeze shifted. A hissing wind came through the grass from the Barrow Downs, and with it, high overhead, came a faint shriek, repeated once. I glimpsed the hawk soaring in slow circles. Another day, I would have searched the skies eagerly. But I turned my gaze westward again. Any moment now.
The north wind's fingers sent a chill through me. I found myself shivering—no, I was trembling. I held my breath. There! Something there... Far off, perhaps a dozen leagues... Hobbiton, maybe, or somewhere near Bywater... A shimmer in the sky, then a dim haze rising, yet with the hint of a menacing shape. A cloaked figure of smoke, reaching out, reaching Westward...
I saw the wind coming long before I felt it. The rising smoke swiftly dissipated; a few moments passed. Then the trees began to move. The Forest was tossing, heaving, the crown of every tree swayed and bent before its wrath. The mists of the Withywindle Valley were torn and swirled into white shreds. Then the tempest was upon me. I staggered backward a step and leaned on my staff. My hair and beard flew back. My cloak twisted and flapped as I clamped my eyes shut against the fierce anger in that howling wind.
Then it was gone, and the gentle breeze returned, tickling at my back. The sun shone brightly, and the hawk called cree, cree again.
My shoulders sagged as I stared into the bright middle distance. How had it come to this? Curumo had been named first by the Council of Valinor, over two millennia ago. He had offered his service, with dignified courage, in the struggle against Sauron. No one, least of all I—Olorin—had been surprised when Curumo stood tall at the front of the crowded gathering place. His power was great, his knowledge inexhaustible, and he seemed to possess an implacable will. And Curumo and Sauron came from Aüle's people; they were of the same house. He was an excellent choice for the task.
And I had come only after hearing my name called, not once, but thrice; I had not asked for this. I had not stood proudly before the others, certain of the rightness of it. I had been hesitant and troubled; yes, afraid. Where had all of Curumo's certainty gone?
And what might I have done, once we arrived on these shores, to stop the destruction that had occurred on the very threshold of my small friend Frodo Baggins' house this afternoon? What if I had given Curumo the respect deserving to the one who had stepped forward in leadership for the dreadful task laid before us by the Council? How might he have behaved if I had supported him fully, given him my loyalty? What if I had sought him out in all things, confided in him when clues useful to the success of our once-common goal came to me, and not to him?
Nay, we were both too proud for that. From the first, he treated me with barely veiled contempt, for I had not volunteered, but had been called out of my dark corner by the Head of the Council of the Ainur, and only agreed to join the Five with reluctance. The thought was never far from his mind, and he found such cunning ways to remind me of it, again and again. The accusation stung in its truth, and wounded my fool's pride. Yet what did I do? In my turn I used clever words and subtle jabs to mock him, and watched with wry amusement as he seethed and tried to conceal his rage. I did not trust him, and whatever trust he had in me eroded away. He was right; I conspired behind his back with others who I found more suitable. Might things have come out differently, had I been more open with him? If I had quelled my own pride, my own anger, might we have come together and worked side by side, instead of always at odds, circling around one another with guard up and weapons at the ready?
I looked again to the West, where now the sun was sinking in flames. The Old Forest and the fields of Buckland beyond it lay at my feet, drenched in autumn gold; and I released my regret, and the last of my pride. No, it was not to be, and I was arrogant to think my actions might have swayed him. I could not have stopped Curumo's desire for power. When it woke in him, I did not know, but his hunger thrived in this far land, where those of us who are only travelers here can feel our power, if we grasp hold of it and use it too often and too eagerly. Such a hunger can consume, as well as clamor to be filled.
And some hearts cannot be warmed, not even by the wielder of the secret flame. Even I cannot walk in every dream. He chose his own path. All come to such crossroads, seen or unseen, acknowledged or not. He made his choice, long ago, perhaps even before he crossed the Sea. I could only give my thanks that I was not so tempted, or if I was, that my desires were of a different sort, and less perilous to fulfill.
"You could not have saved him. He would not have allowed it."
Iarwain Ben-Adar had come up the slope so quietly that I had not heard him approach. I looked into his sun-browned face and studied his startlingly blue eyes. He had known after all.
"Yes," I sighed. "I know you are right."
Bombadil's face creased into a broad smile. He tossed his own hat into the air, and suddenly reached up, grabbed mine and flung it sailing away down the hill.
"What in Arda was that for?" I snapped, though I was grinning at the same time.
He did not answer, but began to dance around me. He clasped my arms and before I knew it I was twirling around Bombadil as we raced and tumbled down the slope of the hill in what must have appeared to be the Dance of the Ancient Madmen. When we reached the back fence of his garden, Bombadil let go of me and leaped over it, running to Goldberry. I came through the gate and entered their garden in what I hoped was a more dignified fashion, although I could hardly catch my breath for laughing. He drew her to her feet and soon they were both capering around me and singing.
Sing, derry, merry dol! Tom's had an awful fright!
The Wand'ring Wizard's just admitted that someone else is right!
That night I sat by Bombadil's fire and listened while he told Goldberry stories of Curumo, the Maia of the House of Aüle, whom the Firstborn had named Man of Skill for his many marvelous inventions. And though I cannot with honesty say that I grieved for him, I released what had been clinging to my heart, and I forgave him...and myself.

Wedding Facilities
Sunken Garden
Willow Glen's Sunken Garden has been a favorite location for outdoor wedding ceremonies for almost 30 years. The manicured lawn can accommodate up to 200 guests for a romantic outdoor wedding. The banks surrounding the lawn are covered with shrubs and flowers in season. Several species of mature trees top the banks and give a private, room-like feel to this popular outdoor venue.
Your guests park in Willow Glen's 2 acre main parking lot and enter through a vine covered arbor that marks the beginning of a romantic path through Willow Glen's side yard then around the tree lined bank, past the top of our main waterfall and into the sunken yard where they are typically greeted by one or more Bridesmaids. After signing your guest book guests are free to mingle while enjoying your selection of music and the naturally soothing sounds of Willow Glen's waterfall and wild birds in season until the call to be seated is given.
At the designated time, your procession proceeds from either of two possible entrances along a topiary lined path through the center of the audience to a wedding arch near the main waterfall. After completion of your ceremony, the sunken yard provides several vignettes suitable for small and large group photos. We have been told time and again, "Your sunken yard is just what I imagined my wedding would be."
Outdoor Stage
Willow Glen's outdoor stage patterned after a building from America's Old West offers a unique venue that can accommodate up-to 300 guests dancing or 150 seated banquet style. If your family loves to dance, food service can be provided on the adjacent lawn area and/or in the Old Barn Restaurant. If your family is dance challenged, the space can be set up banquet style (as shown in the photo above) avoiding the "empty dance floor" syndrome. However, most of our wedding parties choose a combination setup that provides tables and chairs for guest seating while still allowing room for dancing. Our stage also provides performance space for a DJ, 5-piece rock band or even a small chamber orchestra.
Whether you are planning a cowboy wedding, a formal event with the traditional classical flare or a contemporary, informal party, Willow Glen's outdoor stage fills the bill.
Old Barn Restaurant
Willow Glen's Old Barn Restaurant located next to the outdoor stage (just visible on the left edge of the photo above) completes the wedding and reception facilities. It compliments the rustic western flavor of our stage, serves as an alternate venue in case of inclement weather and provides, food service facilities, brides dressing room and public restrooms for your guests. It also accommodates weddings and receptions through the winter months with its real wood fireplace, cast iron gas stove, high ceilings and separate ceremony and reception rooms.
The Old Barn Restaurant offers indoor wedding ceremony seating for up to 70 guests and banquet seating for up to 100 guests without dancing or up to 80 guests with dancing. However, larger parties can be accomodated with additional standing room for the ceremony.
Down Home Comfort
As can be seen from the photos in this and other sections of our web site, weddings and receptions at Willow Glen are comfortable, convenient and fun. You won't find stuffy elegance at Willow Glen. You will find the perfect venue for a relaxed gathering of family and friends to celebrate the begining of your new life together.

SU Study Abroad Handbook (PDF)
What options do students have to study abroad at
Salisbury University?
There are four ways to study abroad through SU:
Through a variety of short term faculty-led
international programs during January, Spring Break, and
Summer Session (students apply directly to the SU
program through the faculty director; students pay SU
directly the costs of the program; students earn SU
credits; programs led by SU faculty);
2) through one of four semester/ year exchange
agreements with foreign universities in China, Ecuador,
France, and Germany (students apply for the exchange
slot through the SU Center for International Education;
(students pay SU tuition and fees for the semester(s)
they will be an exchange student; students earn credits
through the foreign university and transfer the credits
back to SU; students pay no tuition at the foreign
3) SU has signed affiliation agreements with seven
international study abroad affiliates offering programs
all over the world in all majors. SU has agreed to
accept credits from our affiliates and SUCIE works
regularly with its affiliates to make all arrangements
for student participants (students apply directly to the
affiliate; students file a series of paperwork with
SUCIE to establish themselves as in-status SU study
abroad students; students pay tuition and fees directly
to the affiliate; students pay no tuition to SU for the
period that they are studying abroad on the affiliate
international program; all SU financial aid can be
applied to the affiliate's international program costs;
students receive transfer credits from the affiliate
program); and
4) Sometimes students have a specific need for an
international program that neither SU nor any of our
approved affiliates can satisfy. In this case, SUCIE
will approve on a case-by-case basis SU student
participation on a non-affiliate international program
(students meet with a counselor at the SU Center for
International Education to receive approval for
participation in a non-affiliate program; students apply
directly to the non-affiliate program; students file a
series of paperwork with SUCIE to establish themselves
as in-status SU study abroad students; students pay
tuition and fees directly to the non-affiliate program;
students pay no tuition to SU for the period that they
are studying abroad on the non-affiliate international
program; all SU financial aid can be applied to the
non-affiliate's international program costs; students
receive transfer credits from the non-affiliate
international program).
How do I choose a study abroad program that is best for
A: You should take the time to think
about and define your personal and educational goals in
relation to studying abroad. The following questions
will assist you in deciding what type of program would
be most suitable for your needs.
- What are your long term academic and professional
How can your study abroad experience become the
academic and intellectual
highlight of your undergraduate studies?
- How long can you study
- If you could get more financial aid for a longer
program abroad than a shorter program, would that be
important to you?
- What do you hope to learn
as a result of studying in another country?
- How
important is studying or perfecting your competence in a
foreign language?
Can I study abroad with my major?
Yes. There are study abroad programs for every
major. There are SU short-term faculty-led study abroad
programs in many majors. If SU does not sponsor a
program in your major, there is certainly an affiliated
or high-quality non-affiliated program that does.
How will I know if my credits will
If you
study on an SU program, you will earn SU credits just as
if you were on campus. If you study on an exchange
program, or with an affiliated or approved
non-affiliated provider, as part of the process to
establish yourself as an in-status SU study abroad
student, you will file paperwork to get your courses
pre-approved for transfer. In-status SU study abroad
students know not only that their credits will transfer
before they travel, they know exactly how those credits
will count in their programs of study back at SU.
How much does it cost to study abroad?
The cost for studying abroad varies for each program.
Cost is determined by length, extent of program
activity, etc. and may fluctuate based on exchange
Q: Is
there any financial aid available?
Yes. Students can find scholarships and financial aid
options through the SUCIE website; SU offers small
scholarships to study abroad students regardless of
where or how they are studying abroad; Students studying
abroad for a semester or year can bring their regular
financial aid package with them. The financial aid
office will work with students once they are well
advanced on their application process.
On the SUCIE website, students can find a list of
various independent financial aid and scholarship
choices in addition to scholarships and financial aid
offered through Salisbury University's affiliate
When do most students study abroad?
It depends. Many students study abroad on short term
faculty-led programs during January, Spring Break or the
summer. Many of these programs are offered to students
from freshman year through senior year. Other students
study abroad in the Fall of Spring semesters. Students
have studied abroad for a full semester at all times
