Hogue Cabernet Sauvignon
Hogue - Washington State - United States - Columbia Valley
There is little doubt about the fact that the most familiar red wine grape varietal in the world is the Cabernet Sauvignon grape, seen listed on bottles from more or less every single wine producing country across the globe. Part of the reason for this is the fact that Cabernet Sauvignon is a particularly hardy grape, resistant to both frost and rot, and can grow well in a number of climatic conditions so long as it receives enough sunlight and water. Of course, this is only half the story we cannot ignore the fact that wines made from the Cabernet Sauvignon varietal are prized not only for their strong acidic fruit flavors, spicy and earthy notes and high tannin content, but also for the fact that they age beautifully in oak, resulting in wines which are on another level from those made from lesser grapes. Aged wines made using primarily Cabernet Sauvignon grapes are widely recognized to be the finest in the world. The aging process rounds out the tannins, softens the acidity and allows a wide range of fascinating and complex flavors and aromas to come through, making them an unquestioned highlight of the red wine world.
Since it began in the 1820s, wine-production in Washington state has gone from strength to strength, with many of the finest United States wines coming out over the past twenty years hailing from this region. Today, the state is the second largest US producer of wines, behind California, with over forty thousand acres under vine. The state itself is split into two distinct wine regions, separated by the Cascade Range, which casts an important rain shadow over much of the area. As such, the vast majority of vines are grown and cultivated in the dry, arid desert-like area in the eastern half of the state, with the western half producing less than one percent of the state's wines where it is considerably wetter. Washington state is famed for producing many of the most accessible wines of the country, with Merlot and Chardonnay varietal grapes leading the way, and much experimentation with other varietals characterizing the state's produce in the twenty-first century.
The first European settlers to consider growing grapevines in the United States must have been delighted when they discovered the now famous wine regions within California, Oregon and elsewhere. Not even in the Old World are there such fertile valleys, made ideal for vine cultivation by the blazing sunshine, long, hot summers and oceanic breezes. As such, it comes as little surprise that today more than eighty-nine percent of United States wines are grown in the valleys and on the mountainsides of California, where arguably some of the finest produce in the world is found. However, American wine does not begin and end with California, and due to the vast size of the country and the incredible range of terrains and climates found within the United States, there is probably no other country on earth which produces such a massive diversity of wines. From ice wines in the northern states, to sparkling wines, aromatized wines, fortified wines, reds, whites, rosés and more, the United States has endless surprises in store for lovers of New World wines.

Narrow your search
The search giant pulls an about-face and the wireless carrier puts on a dog-and-pony show for April Fools' Day. Also: Microsoft's MS-DOS Mobile, Motorola's premium selfie stick and Samsung's smart knife.
With this 3G, dual-SIM handset, the Lumia line once again pushes the low-cost envelope with this 4-inch phone.
Pricing not available
This 5.7-inch beast of a midrange smartphone goes a step past the Lumia 640 in size and specs.
Pricing not available
This 5-inch phone pairs Windows Phone 8.1 OS with a quad-core processor and both single- and dual-SIM options.
Pricing not available
A great example of a Windows-based smartphone and a killer option for what it costs, although there's still not quite enough going on with Windows Phone to pull people away from Android or iOS.
This model is almost like the entry-level Lumia 532, with just a few slight variations.
Pricing not available
If you're looking for Microsoft to make a high-end Lumia splash, the 532 is nothing special. However, it does stay the course on Nokia's strategy before Microsoft stepped in.
Pricing not available
The Lumia 535's cheap price, big screen and colourful body earn it plenty of points, but its lack of 4G LTE, unimpressive display and sometimes sluggish interface mean this phone isn't suitable for anything more than the basics.
Although the Lumia 735 doesn't have the best camera, it's colourful, curvy and comfortable, has a good display and an affordable price -- all of which go a long way to making up for it.
Since specs are decidedly basic, its low price is the major reason to seek out the Nokia Lumia 530.

Veterans Exposed to Agent Orange: Legislative History, Litigation, and Current Issues – R43790
By Sidath Viranga Panangala, on December 1st, 2014
The U.S. Armed Forces used a variety of chemical defoliants to clear dense jungle land in Vietnam during the war. Agent Orange (named for the orange-colored identifying stripes on the barrels) was by far the most widely used herbicide during the Vietnam War. Many Vietnam-era veterans believe that their exposure to Agent Orange caused them to contract several diseases and caused certain disabilities, including birth defects in their children, and now their grandchildren.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
received the first claims asserting conditions related to Agent Orange in 1977. Since then, Vietnam-era veterans have sought relief from Congress and through the judicial system. Beginning in 1979, Congress enacted several laws to determine whether exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam was associated with possible long-term health effects and certain disabilities. The Veterans' Health Care, Training and Small Business Loan Act (P.L. 97-72) elevated Vietnam veterans' priority status for health care at VA facilities by recognizing a veteran's own report of exposure as sufficient proof to receive medical care, absent evidence to the contrary. The Veterans' Health Care Eligibility Reform Act of 1996 (P.L. 104-262) completely restructured the VA medical care eligibility requirements for all veterans. Under P.L. 104-262, a veteran does not have to demonstrate a link between a certain health condition and exposure to Agent Orange; instead, medical care is provided unless the VA determines that the condition did not result from exposure to Agent Orange. This authority was permanently authorized by the Caregivers and Veterans Omnibus Health Services Act of 2010 (P.L. 111-163).
Likewise, Congress passed several measures to address disability compensation issues affecting Vietnam veterans. The Veterans' Dioxin and Radiation Exposure Compensation Standards Act of 1984 (P.L. 98-542) required the VA to develop regulations for disability compensation to Vietnam veterans exposed to Agent Orange. In 1991, the Agent Orange Act (P.L. 102-4) established a presumption of service connection for diseases associated with herbicide exposure. P.L. 102-4 authorized the VA to contract with the Institute of Medicine (IOM) to conduct scientific reviews of the evidence linking certain medical conditions to herbicide exposure. Under this law, the VA is required to review the reports of the IOM and issue regulations, establishing a presumption of service connection for any disease for which there is scientific evidence of a positive association with herbicide exposure. Based on these IOM reports, currently 15 health conditions are presumptively service-connected.
Under current regulations,
a service member must have actually set foot on Vietnamese soil or served on a craft in its rivers (also known as "brown water" veterans) to be entitled to the presumption of exposure to Agent Orange. Those who served aboard deep-water naval vessels (commonly referred to as "Blue Water Navy" veterans) do not qualify for presumption of service connections for herbicide-related conditions unless they can prove that the veteran's service included duty or visitation within the country of Vietnam itself, or on its inland waterways.
Recently, Vietnam-era veterans have increasingly expressed concerns about all types of medical issues occurring in their children, regardless of age, and in successive generations. Furthermore, they have asserted that more research should be done on paternally mediated birth effects, so that compensation policies might be developed similar to those that address maternally mediated birth effects of Vietnam-era progeny.

Cookin with The Columns: Family favorite
Last week, when Brian wrote the article about me, I thought I should have put this recipe in the Cookin' column for you. I have given it to you in this column before, but it's one of my favorites and one I have used a thousand times at least.
My grandmother (we called her Bu) used to make waffles for me when I spent the night at her house, and now I make them for my grandson, Scott Anthony. My favorite way to eat them is with pecans and bananas on the top, but plain is good too – that's how he likes them. Just lots of butter and syrup. Enjoy!

Automated Mail Purging for SMTP Mail
Copy the scripts to your favorite directory. I used /usr/local/bin. Edit mailrm.sh and mailage.sh to reflect your mail directory and the location of formail. Then just run the script with the number of days to retain messages as its argument. For example, to purge messages older than 60 days:
/usr/local/bin/mailrm.sh 60
Is this mail purge solution perfect? No, it does nothing to lock mail files, which could pose a problem if a user's mail client polls frequently or this job runs during busy hours. Some possible steps to address this could include stopping sendmail while the scripts run, preventing the POP3 server from running and tightening permissions on the mail directory to prevent access from non-superusers. Since it would normally run in the early-morning hours via cron, the probability of collision would be low.
Also, this solution relies on external utilities that may not function as expected. formail might not properly handle all the mail headers, though I haven't encountered problems yet. cat might not like some characters that could appear in messages, resulting in lost message text. I've had few problems with cat, but your experience may be different.
The date conversion logic in maildate.sh is simplistic. It's not accurate for the year 1900, and the leap year calculation will not work correctly after the year 2099. However, it works well for calculating the difference between two dates, and it's reasonably fast.
Since I use three scripts to get around parameter-passing limitations in Bash, this package runs more slowly than it might (because of having to fork processes repeatedly). Recoding the scripts into a single Perl script might help—my Perl skills are too limited for this project.
If you have a need for automated mail purging, these scripts can help you reach your goal. At least, they may give you ideas for your own solution. If you create a more elegant solution, I'd like to hear about it.

The Nigeria international striker continued: "It will be a good feeling to run out at Goodison.
"In the game at Bolton the way the fans treated me was unbelievable and I hope I will get the same reception at home.
"You want to impress them and I am looking forward to the game.
"They beat us at Goodison last season but this time I hope it can be different. We have learnt a lot from what happened."

Rent to Katie at your own risk!!! I would NOT rent to her again. She was so needy that she texted me at least 10 times before ever getting here and daily once she arrived. She complained about everything and out of my 22 great reviews left the only poor one.
High maintenance is putting it lightly, she needed a parental figure.
My house was described as a 1927 treehouse, rustic retreat in the hills with many cats and wildlife. She continuously was surprised when this was in fact the case. I spell it out very clearly in my description. Make sure she has read your description!!! Make sure she knows what she's getting and if you dare to rent to her, prepare to be at her beck n call...
Last but certainly not least, she complained of my place being too expensive, it's $76 a night for the bedroom! This is Los Angeles, I shudder to think of a hotel she could have found for that price, try double!! She also had the whole home to herself for no extra charge.
All in all, she was a stressful pain in the neck.
You are welcome to read my profile, description and other reviews to access for yourself that she is maybe a tad picky. Anyone taking note of your floor boards might do best to stay at the Beverly Hills hotel, not Airbnb!!!

As per estimates, PepsiCo is still far ahead in overall packaged snacks segment with more than a 50 per cent share, compared with ITC's 16 per cent.
According to Prakash, details of the e-commerce strategy, including which portals PepsiCo would tie up with, are expected to be finalised in the next couple of months.
Mentors will include members of the group executive council like Mukund Rajan, NS Rajan, member of the council and chief human resources officer.
PepsiCo India says a mix of age groups is important because the company wants to strike a balance between "experienced veterans and fresh blood".
"It is not a tough call when you feel the pulse of a young workforce," said Shalini Pillai, head of People, Performance and Culture, KPMG in India.
Fair trade regulator CCI noted that PepsiCo India Varun Beverages "are not competitors but have an existing vertical relationship with each other".

Ones anybody know why .38 special is marked as a .38 caliber, where, in fact it fires a . 357 caliber bullet?

The .357 magnum cartridge is refering to the bullet diameter whereas the .38 in .38 special is referring to the case neck diameter if I'm not mistaken.
That's the reason IIRC,but if you have even delved a little into the world of cartridge history you will find that the developers really don't need (and often don't have) a reason to designate a cartridge diameter differently in the name that it actually is. Usually simply because they think it sounds better.
---Shoot To Thrill---
From what ive read, there was a .38 round out back in the day that was crap and they didn't want anyone to think that the two cartridges may be related. Don't know how true that is .
Long ago, in a galaxy far, far away.......
There was a ball and cap revolver (Colt Navy) that had a .36 bore (actually, about .374). When a conversion was made to allow those to fire metallic cartridges, they were .36 caliber bullets, but were "heel seated" bullets- bullet gripped only at the base, by a case the same size as the bullet.
The next generation of revolvers made to fire metallic cartridges used a bullet loaded inside the case. This meant the case had to be larger than the bullet. A .36 bullet had a .38 cartridge case.
After a few evolutions, that became the .38 Long Colt. While became the .38 Special. Which in 1935 reverted to it's actual dimensions when the .357 Magnum was named.
There were reports that S&W was concerned that their new, really hot stuff round would be compared to the fairly weak .36 Navy ball & cap revolver.
So- why is a 45 ACP not 45, nor a 44 magnum 44? PS- the .50 BMG does not fire a .50 diameter bullet.
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.

conditions for hydrangea
Explain something to me - what pH or conditions do hydrangeas like? I have a large H by my driveway in a dry , alkaline location with a lot of underlying limestone from the driveway bed. For several yrs it's look weak, then this yr, when we had at least a month long drought, it has looked great throwing out a ton of leaves. The deer browse it every winter and I was going to dig it out this summer but left it alone because it looked just fine - even putting enormous flowers out from twigs the deer missed.
I'm transplanting another huge hydrangea into an area with more sun but the soil is very heavy clay and even with amendment it will be heavy. Is it going to like that?
Since azaleas, pulmonaria, ferns and hosta are so happy there, I'm pretty sure the soil leans to the acid altho I haven't tested it.
Hydrangeas thrive in moist, well-mulched, acidic soil that drains well. They tolerate alkaline clay soils like mine but require some ammending with sulphur or aluminum sulphate in Spring. The locations that these plants were placed in my garden by the previous owner do not include low spots in the garden were water can accumulate. New hydrangeas were planted using existing soil mixed with 50% compost. Because clay soil tends to drain poorly, I try to water only when the soil feels almost dry at a depth of 4" or more. If you are worried, you can try a raised bed. I would mix the soil below the bed with compost and use only acidic soil in the raised bed.
Thanks Louis. I won't have to treat for acidity because we are in a hardwood forest area that is naturally acidic. Its the clay and light exposure. I had the County Extension Agent out twice because of our heavy clay soil. I'd never seen blue clay that smelled because it was so dense! However its great as an base to raised beds because they don't dry out as fast.
I inherited all my hydrangeas and had always avoided them because of deer browse. They are too big to keep up with the spraying, but now I've moved one inside a walkway by the house and I guess I'll break down and wrap the other one for the winter to see if we can find out what a hydrangea is really supposed to look like minus the deer browse. The former owner of this property had more extra time for wrapping the 45+ shrubs she planted that are all susceptible to deer. I can't cope with that and don't want to look at all that burlap all winter - must have been a sight.
Did FW survive Ike intact?

We actually did this along with some other basics at our last drill. It had been an unusually warm day and it was very warm in the firehouse that night. Having already worked up a sweat in my turnouts made it much harder to don my PPE quickly. My best was just under 2 minutes and the more I tried the slower I got :mad:
I do 1. hood(already set up in right boot) 2. bunkers 3. mask 4. coat 5. scba 6. helmet an on air in 1:10 roughly give or take a few seconds when I started it was quite a few over 2.5 min but practice helps im still getting better time by time. its all fun just relax our state cert is 2min to fully don on air so good on that haha
1. Boots
2. Pants
3. Hood
4. Coat
5. Pack
6. Face piece
7. Helmet
8. On air
9. Gloves
50 seconds. Practice, practice practice. It also helps to have someone with you to see what you are doing that is slowing you down, and good, healthy competition is always a good thing.
A little talcum powder in your gloves helps.
I struggled a little bit in the beginning, from advice overload. Best thing to do is find a friend who can help you in person. I had a career guy with 20+ years show me a coulpe of little tricks and I shaved 30 seconds off my time.
This was all for fireschool anyway. Unless I am covering perdiem EMS shifts and a fire call comes in, I get in my bunker pants, respond to the station, finish getting dressed and hop on or operate one of the engines so the time to don the gear for a volly is usually not so critical. IMHO
One other thing that was huge. I got my gear well before fireschool. And before doing any interior work... that all being said, know your gear and know how it is supposed to fit in a real world working environment. I chose gear from the rack based on how it fit when I tried it on. I should have given it more of a test. Poor fitting gear will slow you down and potentialy hurt you.

Hate the new paint in the family room, help!
Ugh, what a nightmare. We are just finishing up having our living room, family room, and downstairs bath painted. I had intended to paint the living room coral and the family room gray. The plan was to have gray and yellow accents in the living room - I was really set on that color scheme, partially because I brought home an amazing antique rug from Morocco with the same colors. So we painted the living room in BM coral gables and I love it. We tested 4 "grays" in the family room. I liked one color, but the painter and my husband both liked another (BM stardust) so I went along with it. Now it's on the walls and I HATE it. So much. It's brown, not gray. The rooms connect, so it's kind of a big deal and I don't want poop brown in the living room!
The painter is coming back tomorrow to touch up a few things and clean up. I'm not sure if i should try to have him redo the family room now or wait see how it looks with the furniture. Maybe it'll grow on me?
I'm hesitant to rush a repaint because of the cost, but I know it will cost more to let him clean up and leave only to have to do all the prep over again.
We are doing a pretty substantial amount of refurnishing (new house!) - any suggestions to bring out the gray in this BROWN paint? Gray couch? I have two armchairs to reupholster for the room also - I haven't painted the frames or chosen fabric yet so there might be potential there. Or should I just have the painter bring over more samples in the morning and start repainting?
Thanks for the advice for where to post - I figured the "paint" forum was the most relevant and I didn't want to get in "trouble" for posting in the wrong spot!
I asked him to bring new samples and he's re-taping some of the trim now. I was upset about it every time I walked by the room so I figured it's better to repaint now when the prep is basically all done than to wait and have to redo all of that.
"so I figured it's better to repaint now when the prep is basically all done than to wait and have to redo all of that."
I think that is a wise move. If it's not right, it's not right and chances are you won't grow to love it. Getting it repainted now before the furniture etc goes in is much better and most likely you would end up repainting it since you know it's not what you want already.
Stardust looks brown on my monitor. Do go over to the Home Decorating forum - there are many threads on gray paint. A poster named Beekeeperswife has a whole collection of gray paint samples from her trials with it. In fact, you might want to try a search of that forum with her name and the word gray.

Take the SAT and ACT as many times as possible, sign up for as many APs as YOU CAN HANDLE. Georgia is extremely selective these days.

Let's make it happen this year and present this course the way it should be. Lot's of past history but let's work together for a great future for this and all courses.
Thank you,

Had a good discussion with Sylvia at Camp Taloali today about future of the course and what can and should be done to finish course work out, also about the pay to play and how better to make it work. Been lots of players and cars but not much in pay box. Best bet and easiest for any one that plays 6 or more times a year is a annual pass, easier for them to keep track of also. More details to follow but lets get together and make a good course a great course.
Thank you

Lost Disc: It's completely visible in the creek on hole 16. We were out there yesterday, Sunday. Its a red g star tern 170g with the rose city open stamp from last year on it. I'd really like it back if you would be so kind as to return it and not jack it. Sampson and number are on it. Thanks
It's to the left on 17's fairway, if some one can grab it and get it to me, I can get it to Sampson who can get it to Cody since they're in the Portland area. Help a guy out!
In the water in the fairway...you know what I mean. Just past the log that runs all the way across
On a nice day like today, I woulda took the shoes and socks off, rolled up the pant legs and went in!! If you can see it, it ain't lost!!
It is actually Sampson's. I was posting here to help here out. My brother from another mother Lee lives at Taloali, figred this may help her :)
Oh sweet deal! If I hear of it's recovery I'll try to help get it back to her!
Kayla Johnson January 26 at 5:08pm
Just a friendly reminder: Camp Taloali is a pay to play course. There is a $5/player fee to play. (Even if you're playing a CCDG league)The fee can be left in the drop box at the course entrance, or dropped off with Sylvia in the main office. They also offer memberships for $30/year. If you're interested in a membership they can be bought through me, or at the camp office. Thanks!

At a tourney a couple years ago, this guy brought a caddy, and he left the guys stool on one hole, then the the next hole he made sure he grabbed the stool, but left the guys bag on the tee pad. Every time I hear of a lost stool, I think of a pot/something worse caddy.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Here's an IKEA: Let's find money for traffic woes
MP says south-end pressures will grow
OTTAWA -- When Winnipeg South Conservative MP Rod Bruinooge flew back to the city from Ottawa earlier this month, he figured he'd have an easy drive to his constituency.
It was a Thursday morning before the lunch hour and the weather was clear.
But as he made his way south along Route 90, he came to a dead stop.
"The traffic was backed up as if it were rush hour."
And Bruinooge says this is before the big blue traffic creator known as IKEA opens its doors, or the snazzy new stadium starts pulling Winnipeg football fans into the south end of the city. It is also before most of the 30,000 homes in Waverley West are even built.
"In my opinion, we do not have the infrastructure to support this growth," Bruinooge said.
He said the pressure to fix the problems will grow as people from all over the city start heading to the south end to shop and watch football. Before now, most people who drove to the south end did so because they lived there, said Bruinooge.
He said fixing the traffic-flow woes in south Winnipeg will need three things: an underpass at the Waverley Street rail crossing near Taylor Boulevard, extending the bus rapid transit system to the University of Manitoba and widening Kenaston Boulevard north of Taylor.
Bruinooge said the transit extension will take time to work out and the Kenaston widening is in limbo until the Treaty One challenge over the former Kapyong Barracks land is worked out.
The Waverley underpass, to end the bottlenecks caused when trains barrel through several times a day, is the most feasible to do now. A few years ago, the cost estimate was about $70 million. The recent Plessis Road underpass project was $77 million.
But finding that money isn't a simple exercise.
Canada's big-city mayors were in Ottawa last week, begging for more from the federal government.
They convened in the nation's capital seeking a commitment from the federal government for another $2.5 billion a year for municipal infrastructure. It would bring total federal spending on municipal infrastructure to $5.75 billion a year.
If matched by the provinces and the cities, as would be required, that means at least $17.25 billion a year to renew and create new roads, bridges and other municipal infrastructure.
In many ways, it couldn't have been a worse week for the mayors to make their pitch.
Last Monday, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty delivered his fall economic update with bad news.
It will take at least another four years, until 2016, for Ottawa to balance its budget again. The deficit for the current year is going to be $5 billion more than forecast, and over the next four years it will be more than $20 billion more than Flaherty forecast.
So it wasn't likely any request for a big, new chunk of change from Ottawa was going to be met with anything but incredulity and a big, fat 'I don't think so.'
But Bruinooge is undeterred.
Transport Minister Denis Lebel is in the midst of working on the next federal infrastructure program. The current program doesn't expire until 2014, but its funds are all committed. However, Lebel is hoping to have a new program worked out by the end of next year so the new funds can start flowing to projects early in 2014. The last of the money aimed for Winnipeg went into the convention centre expansion ($180 million) and the Plessis Road underpass.
The Kenaston underpass was part of a federal infrastructure agreement in 2005.
Bruinooge is putting on pressure for the Waverley underpass to be part of the next one.
Katz said he has sat in that traffic snarl and knows how frustrating and harmful it is, but he said it's up to city bureaucrats to identify the priority list of infrastructure projects.
The province, which has jointly funded a study on the project with the city, puts the onus on the city to identify the underpass as a priority while cautioning repairs to the 80 bridges and more than 200 roads damaged in the 2011 flood are the province's infrastructure priority.
If Bruinooge has his way, the crush of Winnipeggers expected to descend on the new IKEA store in a few weeks will help drive the push for improved traffic flow in south Winnipeg, and a Waverley underpass will move to the top of the list.

Today is also the date, in 1858, that the Virgin Mary first appeared to Bernadette Soubirous in a grotto in Lourdes, in southwest France. During subsequent apparitions, Our Lady of Lourdes–as she came to be known–revealed various messages to Bernadette, and thus began one of the greatest stories of Marian devotion and pilgrimage in church history. For more on Our Lady of Lourdes, watch this clip of Fr. James Martin, SJ, author of "My Life with the Saints," appearing in a terrific new video from Loyola Productions called "Who Cares About the Saints?"
