Kris Humphries is the ex-husband of Kim Kardashian and a forward for the New Jersey Nets.
Kris comes from a mixed-race family; his father is African American and his mother is caucasian. He has two sisters, Kaela, a runway model who we met on Season 6 of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, and Krystal, who has yet to make her KUWTK debut.
Growing up, Kris was always athletic. His first love was swimming, and by age 10 he'd already nabbed himself the title of top 10 year old in 6 different swimming events. (He still holds one of those records for 10 year old boys!) He switched the style up when he turned 12, and began honing his basketball skills. Not that they needed much – Kris was a natural. While attending Hopkins High School, he received several prestigious awards and nominations for his bball skills, including Super 25 Basketball Team by USA Today and state player of the year by the Minneapolis Star Tribune. This Midwest teen's life was anything but ordinary!
Later, he attended the University of Minnesota after turning down a scholarship offer from Duke University. He played for the school's basketball team, and while many say he played well personally, the team wasn't so great. Kris was then drafted to the NBA in 2004, joining the Utah Jazz. He also played for the Dallas Mavericks before eventually landing on the NJ Nets in January 2010.
Kris met socialite Kim Kardashian through New Jersey Nets teammate Jordan Farmar in December 2010. It was a whirlwind romance, with the 27-year-old proposing to Kim after only 6 months of dating. It was also a whirlwind divorce: Kim filed for divorce from Kris on October 31, 2011, after just 72 days of marriage.
The proposal – in which Kris got down on one knee in the socialite's bedroom and slipped a 20.5-carat, $20 million ring on her finger – was captured on film and aired during the sixth season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians. The couple shared vows during a lavish ceremony on August 20, 2011, which aired in October 2011 as its own 2-day special for E! titled Kim's Fairytale Wedding: A Kardashian Event. The demise of Kim and Kris' marriage was the major dramatic plotline in Season 2 of Kourtney and Kim Take New York.

Some of us still remember Kirstie, 60, best as neurotic Rebecca from Cheers. But we also haven't forgotten her with John Travolta in the Look Who's Talking films. Did you know she's had seven Golden Globe and eight Emmy nominations? She has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. She also has an open issue with her own weight. She co-wrote and starred in Showtime's comedy Fat Actress. She was a Jenny Craig spokeswoman from 2005 to 2008. In 2010, Kirstie worked with experts in science, nutrition, and medicine to develop Organic Liaison, which includes Rescue Me, the first ever USDA certified organic weight-loss product.

Mar 26, 2013It's so different to the first Bioshock, yet so similar at the same time. It does everything right, great story, amazing graphics and combat, and if anybody's having second thoughts about buying it because they're worried about Elizabeth being annoying, that's not an issue at all. She adds so much to an already fantastic game. Just buy it already!

Mar 26, 2013Already a contender for GOTY. Gorgeous and unbelievable are understatements. Not only is this game the best in the series, i might put it as one of the best games this decade.
Mar 26, 2013Bioshock Infinite is a true contender for Game of the Year. From the gorgeous graphics and the addictive game play and the smooth controls makes this one of the best video games of all time in my books if you have never played Bioshock I strongly recommend you go and buy it once you play the first few minutes of Bioshock you will be hooked on these amazing games.
Mar 26, 2013
Apr 5, 2013Combat is solid and the skylines make for a great amount of fun. The animations, voice acting and sound might be the best overall we have ever seen in a game before. The story is sound and interesting. Must buy.
Apr 19, 2013This game is what every sequel should aspire to be; it never tries to be the original, or to recreate the things the original does well, but makes it's own way, while still preserving the original's spirit.
This is a game not to be missed. -
Mar 27, 2013Amazing game. Level of detail is outstanding. The gameplay, story, characters and the setting are all fantastic. Go out and buy it you won't be disappointed.

Apr 30, 2013i loved the first bioshock and this one, although realllly different, is still just as on par in terms of plot, gameplay, soundtrack etc. some of the voice acting can be annoying but that's just because i'm bipolar and everything is annoying when i'm manic. (anyway). anyway.
Apr 30, 2013This is a great game. The greatness comes from gameplay, story, environment controls, polish, but not nessiceraly from graphics. But for true gamers we all know that graphics is not all to a game look at the sentence before, there are 6 or 7 things that contribute to greatness and this game by Irrational Games has it all.

Mar 30, 2013Bioshock infinite is amazing. The level of detail in this game is beyond the words of a reviewer, and the story is perfect for the time we live in. This is one of the best games I have ever played
May 23, 2013
Apr 11, 2013
Aug 23, 2013A story that keeps you hooked till the jaw-droppingly deep ending, gameplay that's so deliciously violent and graphics that don't always look great, but it's sure fun to look at. I'm serious. That ending will leave you in deep thought for days.
Apr 14, 2013This game is worth the hype do yourself a favor and at least rent it, you won't be disappointed, this is a true work of art. Plenty of throwbacks to the original Bioshock which is easily one of the best games of all time.

May 28, 2013One of the best storyteller game i have ever played. Lots of Easter eggs with story connection, amazing graphics, sounds, and graphic interface. great soundtrack too.
Jun 9, 2013Best game!

Dec 8, 2013In my opinion this game is pretty good, but not great, the gameplay was kinda boring and columbia for me seemed like it was there so they could slap in a new city, but with those issues it still had a fantastic and believable story, great graphics, and while the gameplay was a litte boring the shooting is still decent, this game is good, just doesn't deserve the reviews it got

Apr 8, 2013BioShock Infinite was a game that I was extremely hyped for when it was first announced and it has finally arrived. Was it worth the wait? Yes, if you have not played this game yet I highly suggest you do so. Its a game that is a must buy for any die hard gamer. It features some of the best characters, and storyline in a video game to date and it cannot be missed by anyone.
Apr 13, 2013The game play may seem a little old to some, but I enjoyed it. The characters are believable, the game looks and feels great. Audio and voice acting are top notch as well.

Dec 30, 2013I think bioshock infinite is the most overrated game of this gen it's truly a nice game specially the storyline but still farbehind TR,TLOU,GTA V and even DmC
Aug 30, 2013Bioshock Infinite is a great game. Not better then the original and the game feels like some other game but still feels like Bioshock. The Voice acting is superb. I mean it's excellent. I think the game is a little over rated. I mean yes it's great but it's not really amazing. Still a great game though.
Sep 14, 2013
Oct 16, 2013Beautiful world with an engaging story, but I found the gameplay to be rather lack luster, with fun moments too far and few between. I've played the other two Bioshocks as well and so far my opinion on them remains the same, worth renting and playing through once, then sending it back on its way. To me they just don't have any replay value, it's a great one time experience though.
Nov 7, 2013Goods
- Lovely characters
- LOVELY soundtracks
- LOVELY Visual
- Gameplay felt boring and repetivive
- I have not played any other bioshocks but i felt that this game was a very strong start to get me into the franchise -

Apr 4, 2013This game. Is so intense. So mind blowing. This is, at least for me one of the BEST games of this generation. Anyone who rated under 9 probably didn't get the ending, because they didn't take their time exploring Columbia, finding hints about what the heck is actually going on. So much emotion, so many feels. This is a MUST OWN.
Mar 29, 2013An amazing game, the story is the best thing in it. It's like you're reading this great book and you just cant wait to see what will happened in the end, and believe me it will blow your mind.
You don't judge a book by its cover or the print quality (graphics,action,stealth etc..) you judge it by it's story and this one will pull you in and you'll want more. -

Mar 27, 2013A fantastic combination of brilliant story telling, beautiful graphics and great character development. It's not just that though, making America look like a roman utopia in the sky mixed with space and time manipulation just blows your mind and this is coming from a lover of history and imagination, you must play this game as you would a film you will enjoy it I guarantee it.
Mar 29, 2013No words can describe how good this game story is, all I can say is you must buy this game it will blow your mind and will leave you questioning "did that really just happen"
Mar 30, 2013
Mar 27, 2013I had ridiculously high expectations for this game, and it exceeded them greatly. This is the first game that ever done that for me and is just flawless on almost every level. Ken Levine is a god, and this is by far the best game I have ever played.
Mar 28, 2013
Apr 1, 2013
Mar 30, 2013Even though I had some framerate and loading issues, this is the best game I've played so far this year and my best experience with a first person game since the last Bioshock game. Gameplay is inventive and fun, narrative is strong and well paced. Regardless of which system you play this on, this is a experience worth having.
Mar 27, 2013
Mar 26, 2013Simply an awesome game in every way I know the graphics aren't as good as the pc version but they are still absolutely stunning this game already deserves the goty get off your butts right now and go buy this superb game you will not regret it
Apr 1, 2013
Apr 5, 2013This is everything we hoped it would be and more. Far exceeded my expectations. Those giving it a low score need to take a good hard look at what they're implying by giving this game a 0 or 2 etc. Infinite is far above the maximum score of 10 we're allowed to give.
Mar 28, 2013This game became the my favorite game of all time. Its hard to say whats good about this game without spoiling it. Just play it all the way through, you will appreciate it the more you play it.
Apr 16, 2013
Apr 29, 2013
Mar 29, 2013Expectations, I can say, have been exceeded. Bioshock's strongest talking point was its location; a sub-mariner underground brimming with mystery and danger. Infinite sells on the same principle, a steam punk world where nothing really makes much sense and everything at the same time just seems so damn cool.
I dare you to miss it. -

The game takes some risk at some of its gameplay design, but the whole game takes that problem and make it to something easy and good! -

May 27, 2013In an infinite universe, anything can happen, but in Infinite's, the specifics are what get you.
Apr 23, 2013One of those rare games that speaks to the player on a personal, emotional level with a thought-provoking, mature storyline set in one of the most amazing worlds conceived in a game. Plus, it's a wonderful FPS with deep, tactical combat. Essential. [Issue#230, p.66]
Apr 22, 2013Multiple dimensions and a clever scenario with a surprise around every corner make it difficult for us to explain our enthusiasm without spoiling the story. Only the extended ghost chase (literally) halfway through the game drags on a bit too long. [April 2013, p.74]

This Evaporative Air Cooler, Humidifier, Air Filtration and Fan with Ionizer is versatile and an economical way to cool and humidify the surrounding air. Designed with micro-computer control system, this unit can lower surrounding temperature and humidify the air through the principal of water evaporation. The Cooler easily rolls from room to room with lockable casters. This Air Cooler shoots a stream of air with oscillating louvers, to evenly distribute refreshing cool air. Can also be used as a fan or humidifier if temperature is not an issue. The remote control allows you to easily change settings.
The Air Cooler works by endothermic reaction (a reaction that consumes heat), so this evaporative Air Cooler sucks air through a wick saturated with water. As the air flows through the wick, some of the water evaporates into the air, consuming the heat that was in the air. An air stream is then blown out the front of the unit and is considerably cooler than the current room temperature! This is not an air conditioner and therefore uses much less energy.
Note: This unit is best used in dry climates or open spaces. Leave window/door open when temperature or humidity rises in the room. Add as much ice as possible and set unit next to you for best effect.

Heavy rain fell. It was getting dark, the streets were growing empty. Paris's cafés were packed with people. I found myself in one of them. A dreary evening. The usual music playing. Suddenly, I sensed a presence behind me. Even without turning my head, I could feel an energy filling the surrounding space. When our gazes met, I felt faint inside. One of my friends said, "It's a man in a mask." The stranger smiled at me. We started talking. I couldn't move, much less leave. I kept watching him, taking in every gesture, his inner power. He showed me his drawings of nude, faceless people. He said he would take me to his studio the next day.
From then on, we spent all our our time together, from morning until the last run of the night bus. He showed me another Paris, another life, and another self.

and is there much risk of store bought wax transmitting disease?
and is there much risk of store bought wax transmitting disease?
acrylic projects picture blog
The short answer is no, the chances of disease being spread by spores in wax is almost nonexistent. There is some chemical contamination in small amounts but I have not seen any studies that have proven damage to the bees from using all wax foundation or wax coated plastic foundation.
Thanks AR
also wondered which is better to order
white or yellow beeswax, for recoating plasticell foundation?
acrylic projects picture blog
I have always used my capping wax from the year before and never bought any. I think the only difference in white or yellow is the white has been bleached.

If you don't want to do it give me the source and i will do it. It can't be that hard.

by Ken Nail Full playback and fast charging Want to listen to your iPod or iPhone through your 2009-up Alpine CD receiver? Connect this KCU-445i connection cable between your iPod and the stereo's USB port, and you'll get super-fast data transfer and full playback control. You'll enjoy the superior sound quality of the Alpine's digital-to-analog converter, plus your iPod's or iPhone's battery will charge extra fast as you drive, thanks to the cable's compatibility with the 1-amp USB ports found on new Alpine receivers. The package contains an 8-inch connector cable and a 5-foot extension cable in case your receiver has a rear USB port. Once connected, your receiver's controls allow you to manage just about every playback function right from the radio's faceplate. QuickSearch™ makes it easy to find the music that you want — jump between artists, albums, and playlists at the push of a button. You can even scroll through songs using the rotary control knob. Album, artist, and song information from your iPod will show up on the radio's display, too. Warranty: 1 year. Why would I need an iPod® adapter? An iPod adapter allows you to connect your iPod to your car stereo, then access your playlists with your stereo's controls - a great idea for several reasons. One, you can scroll through your song titles on your stereo's larger display, instead of squinting down at your iPod. Two, you can route the adapter cable to your glove compartment or center console, so your iPod stays safely out of sight. Three, the iPod adapter keeps your iPod fully charged, so it's ready to rock when you leave your car. And last of all, some adapters bypass your iPod's internal digital-to-analog converter, using your stereo's superior DAC to turn your files back into music.

husband's gift Written By Julie R, Richmond, VA on Saturday, July 26, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This was a very simple way to get the exact thing that we needed. We searched several other companies and no one had it and definitely not for a price that we liked. So thank you for having exactly what we needed, for getting it to us quickly and for making the whole ordering process so simple and easy to manage. Pros: Easy to order site, quickly processed and shipped, and a great fair price. Cons: Wasting time searching anywhere else.
Solid Wire Written By Jason, Easton PA on Tuesday, November 26, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Nice wire, very well built with great sound quality. Pros: Solid Construction, easy to use Cons: none
Alpine KCU-445i Written By Kerry, Statesboro, GA on Sunday, November 17, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great product!!
Sound Out of Sight Written By Karky, Los Angeles, CA on Monday, June 03, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I love that the cable is thick and solid. I was already removing the center console on my Boxster, so I was able to run the cable inside the console and fashion an iPod connection inside my storage compartment so I have no exposed cable. My Alpine stereo completely takes over iPod control and now I wonder why I even purchased a CD Receiver and not just a media receiver alone. I could not be happier. If you can keep the cable out of sight and position your iPod where it's obscure, you have a killer stereo without the distracting wires. If I couldn't hide the wires, I'd still use the cable, as it really makes playing the iPod through the rear USB of my car stereo easy and efficient. Pros: Great connection, thick wires, heavy construction. Cons: None, really.
Alpine KCU-445i Written By Russell YB, North Jersey on Monday, April 01, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I have use many of the iPod connection over the years, but this one is by far the most innovative.. With the CDE HD 138BT, I have much more control of the iPod than ever before. When I use my iPhone with the Head unit it is even more user friendly. I can't say enough good things about tis Alpine product and all the Alpine products. Crutchfield has the best after sales customer services I've ever had the pleasure of working with, and they ship for FREE I like that. Thanks guys for great before and after sales support. Russell YB Pros: Great product, easy to install and use. Alpine is the best. Crutchfield carries the full line. Cons: No complaints on any issue

Twelve apostles judge twelve tribes. I assume each apostle judges 1 tribe.Is the apostle that judges that tribe member of the tribe?If yes and the none of the apostles is from the tribe of Levi as Judas was then that's proof Judas didn't lose his throne.Does someone have a list of tribes the apostles belong to?
Quote from: WhiteWings on March 18, 2010, 02:45:25 PMTwelve apostles judge twelve tribes.

YA know I looked it up on the net and you did too eh?
Peter is given this kingdom sounds like all the thones he sits on in Christ as the WHOLE ? just another thought ...
I still dont think Judas is among them Though JMO! ... dont you think them sitting on the thrones determins how one could enter in the gates of the City they are judging with Christ Jesus / Lamb of God
26But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger/ last or least ; and he that is chief/ first , as he that doth serve. Saul asked /Paul small /least was chief/ first of sinners , so he serves the Lord well now ! no mention of Judas except his death and being replaced in the ministry
I don't rule it out either, Tony. And whether he's on one of the 12 thrones or not, Jesus still He would draw (drag) ALL men to Him. So either way, Judas is/will be forgiven and part of the kingdom.
I still do not understand why the scripture says it would be better if Judas had not been born.
21"For the Son of Man is to go just as it is written of Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born."
Hello Will;You are completely ignoring a well established understanding of biblical context. The number 12 is the representation of Hebrew government. There are twelve tribes of Israel, that have 12 judges who judge them. This structure was lost to the Hebrew people through their continual falling away from God. At the time when Jesus arrived there was no Hebrew governmental structure other than the religous.Jesus chose twelve apostles because of the [1] restucturing of the need for the twelve tribes, one to judge each. So much so that Jesus even said that they (the twelve) would judge the twelve tribes. [2] This office of judge was the office Judas lost his position from.
I realize that you will take more scripture out of context and use it to prove an idea you have, so there is no need for me to respond after this. People need to keep the whole bible in mind when claiming such things.
I am not condeming nor did I ever suggest Judas recive punishment, I just stated what the scripture recorded.
Judas betrayed Jesus, comitted suicide, lost his office, both of which were prophesied, and likewise to fulfill prophecy his office as judge was given to another.
There is no need for a thirteenth judge/apostle, there are only twelve tribes....
Irregardless of your opinion, bro.
You have posted ZERO Scriptural support for these two contentions above (1) JESUS was about a "restructuring" (2) that JUDAS lost the "office of judge"...
The context is, the whom woe will come upon is the betrayer. Seriously, it is straight forward, and if you need to twist that to fit your wholy ideology you are the one having difficulty with the scriptures not others.Now it says woe to the betrayer that woe really doesn;t mean anything then? So likewise when revelation says woe that also doens't really mean woe but more like, kinda unfourtunate.
Revelation 8:13 "Then I looked, and I heard an eagle flying in midheaven, saying with a loud voice, "Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the remaining blasts of the trumpet of the three angels who are about to sound!" Revelation 12:12 "For this reason, rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time."
There is a calamity that befalls Judas, that is an internal calamity, ripping at his soul, as he fights within himself for peace at what he had done. That man who betrayed Jesus now must turn to Jesus and accept Jesus' inclusion.... not going to be an easy thing to face....almost as though it would be better for him not to have been born. So much so that man was destryoed within himself he killed himself. Surely Judas was included into the cross, just try to convince him of that.
a full-grown man who got fired has a very hard time telling people because of shame (suicide rate from it), so how easy is it going to be for Judas who betrayed GOD to turn to Him and acknowledge it? Imagine the shame that he carries about it, it was so much he did kill himself.
Interesting thread.Suggestion. If a father tells his son as they are on their way to the woodshed that it would be better for him if he hadn't been born ... well you know that boy is getting, as they say, a whuppin.From what I can tell, UR still believes that judgment can be very severe.Infinity minus one moment - is still a verrrrrry verrrrrry long time.

So much so that man was destryoed within himself he killed himself. Surely Judas was included into the cross, just try to convince him of that.There is a very SPIRITUAL picture in the death of JUDAS... It is the DEATH of ADVERSITY... which must occur in ALL... ALL men are AS GUILTY as JUDAS, concerning the DEATH of the Savior. And JESUS' "inclusion" WILL be as HEART FELT in each man, as it was in JUDAS... for He embodies OUR BETRAYAL.Quote from: Dallas on Today at 02:53:29 PMa full-grown man who got fired has a very hard time telling people because of shame (suicide rate from it), so how easy is it going to be for Judas who betrayed GOD to turn to Him and acknowledge it? Imagine the shame that he carries about it, it was so much he did kill himself.I just addressed this... we all must willingly submit to DEATH, the CARNAL version of ourselves, and submit to the CHRIST within, which shall NEVER [not at any time] leave us or forsake us. (He WAS with us, IS with us, and ALWAYS WILL BE with us)
FIRST --- Twisting? ...This is an unnecessary comment, and you should be ashamed for suggesting it of another. We are all seeking... and in that seeking, we shall find ourselves in varying places along the pathway of truth.You cannot erect the STRAWMAN called "twisting" and exempt yourself from it. So let us ignore this foolishness, and leave it to burn.]And, yes I can. I see the use of the scriptures as you are using them to be twisting. Scripture is literature and when you decide to change the lituature to wrangle a meaning out of it you have lost the meaning it already had. There is also a great conotation that you need it to say what you want verses, just because you found others who need that same idea isn't surprising, even Heaven's Gate had more than one member.
Hey willie I would also like to point out what Peter said about Judas;Acts 1:25 "to occupy this ministry and apostleship from which Judas turned aside to go to his own place."
No one is denying that another APOSTLE was appointed to carry on... But this replacement APOSTLE was not of the FOUNDATIONAL TWELVE.CHRIST chose the FOUNDATIONAL TWELVE... and the WORD NEVER CHANGES... So the CHOOSING that He did IS ETERNAL.You are more than welcome to maintain your opinion.
I've searched for the duration of punishment. I found various articles on it by Rabbi's. They all seem to agree correction lasts 0-11 months. 3 months for most people. 12 months for the extremely wicked. A minority thinks the last group will stop to exist after 12 months. I do not now how they concluded that.My idea/guess is that it's related to the spring/fall harvests.
This is what I am saying, you just simply chose to deny the scripture even why I did post it for you. It says straight forward, Judas had recived his portion already, he gave up his seat and another was appointed to fill the role.
But you chose to deny the simply stated reality of it...when Jesus included Judas he knew full well that he was going to lose his seat, if not him someone else would have, the seat would need to be replaced and Jesus gave it to Paul personally.
Just as Saul the first King of Israel lost his position, and David was put in his place, likewise the judge lost his and was replaced. And along with it all it's rights and privellages.
This has been on my mind for a couple of days now and have read everyones POV the thing that is bugging me most is that satan entered Judas Jesus said Have I not choosen you twelve and one of you is a devil ? so was satan leading Judas around by the nose on the betrayal? and its actually satan whom betrays Christ though Judas ? is it not satan whom always betrays Christ ? us even , we are all prisoners of one or the other satan or Jesus ............. It seems we are chosen vessels [honor and dishonor ]and have very little control over what chooses us and if we even have a choice in anything really in our weakness the Lord is our strength ! you cannot be any weaker when suicide looks good to ya ! just some thoughts on this thread , that has been bugging me for two days now , its still not settled within yet .. 3 Then Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve. 4He went away and conferred with the chief priests and officers how he might betray him to them. 5And they were glad, and agreed to give him money. 6So he consented and sought an opportunity to betray him to them in the absence of a crowd.
It is certainly most important and interesting that Jesus was betrayed by one so close to him. There is hardly any experience in life more painful than that. The story could have played out any way at all, but it played out this way. What wound could be more devastating?He surely lets us know that he understands everything we will suffer in this life, because he suffered it himself.Zechariah 13:6And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.But, I no longer stand on the foundation of a betrayer and liar, but the sure foundation of one who is worthy, one who is faithful, one who is true--Our foundation is not the betrayer, but the Christ.2 Timothy 2:19Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
the only sin that is unforgivable is to Blaspheme the Holy Shirit do you think Judas is guilty of that ?

One of the awardees was rock star, Sammy Hagar who received two gold awards on behalf of Cabo Wabo Tequilas, a product line named after his night club in Cabo San Lucas. We learn first-hand why he was also honoured as a master taster of tequila, as recognized by the American Culinary Institute.

With 2000 bottles in the private collection and over 6000 bottles in the restaurant cellar, not to mention the largest collection of cognac in the world, Bistro à Champlain lives up to its title. Clos du Bois winemaker Margaret Davenport describes the balance between quality and quantity in a good harvest year.
Show 11 ~ Penfold's, Australia
At Penfold's, one of Australia's most famous wineries, WINE TELEVISION discovers why their world-renowned, hard-to-get Grange label fetches top prices at international wine auctions. There are few international wine fairs in the world where a wine producer's presence is considered mandatory but halfway between Milan and Venice in northern Italy is a town called Verona that hosts winemakers from all around the world during the extravaganza known as VINITALY. With over 8000 kilometres of navigable waterways crossing through some of the most scenic, renowned wine regions in the world, it was only a matter of time before someone discovered a perfect holiday option for culinary travelers. We'll board a barge as it cruises through the beautiful canals of France, stopping for gastronomic delights at every lock! Presiding over the tony Upper East side of Manhattan is Restaurant Daniel, the latest in a string of successful endeavours by owner and acclaimed chef Daniel Boulud. We'll see why he enjoys a reputation as perhaps the top French chef and haute restaurateur in New York City. Our expert is Georges Blanc winemaker Colette Morel who describes the perfect wine glass for every style of wine.
Show 12 ~ Bichot, France
WINE TELEVISION travels to the city of Beaune, the jewel in the crown of the French winemaking region of Burgundy, to meet sixth generation wine maker Alberic Bichot. His ancestral family vineyard was lost during the Second World War and it wasn't until the 1950′s that their current holding, Maison Albert Bichot was built. Today, they are producing some of the finest wines in the region. We then witness a "ten-chef homage" to the great Chef Jean Blanchet at the American Tasting Institute's annual dinner in New York's Kitano Hotel. Next, we visit Hunter Valley Resort and Wine School, the only place in Australia that has a vineyard, 4-star accommodation, winery, wine-tasting, restaurant, cafe, micro-brewery, and wine school all on the one site. Brothers Raffaele and Massimiliano Alamjo introduce us to their shared philosophy calling for modern interpretations of traditional techniques and recipes practiced at their multi-generational family restaurant Le Calandre in northern Italy. Our expert this week is Jean Luc Le Du, Sommelier at Restaurant Daniel in New York City who gives us his opinion on matching food to wine.
Show 13 ~ Arrowood Winery, California
WINE TELEVISION believes that winemaking is an art and during our visit to Arrowood Winery in California's Sonoma County we discovered the home of a true artist. Richard Arrowood started his winemaking career in 1965 and eventually became the first winemaster at Chateau St. Jean winery in 1974. His own winery was completed in 1987 is a carefluly planned, stylish facility containing equipment often described as a "winemaker's dream". We'll learn how this technology is used to produce highly specialized handcrafted wines in small quantities with which Richard Arrowood can freely express his art. Next, we head north to the Vancouver Playhouse International Wine Festival where this year, Italian wines take centre stage. New York City has more than its fair share of luxurious hotels. One of the most acclaimed hotels is known simply as W New York and we'll discover why it claims to be the hotel experience of the New Millennium. We'll then meet one of Europe's greatest culinary celebrities. Georges Blanc invites us into the restaurant that has been in his family for 5 generations and shows us how his French cuisine has retained its integrity by remaining true to its traditional roots.

1951 Mercury No Limit Engineering Installs Trailing Arm Rear Suspension - Mercury Rising (And Dropping)
Written by on April 1, 2010 No Limit Engineering Installs Trailing Arm Rear Suspension On A '51 MercI'm a big fan of trailing arm rear suspension, especially under customs. Not only does it offer a smooth ride with great handling and traction, but there are no upper arms to worry about, or even the upper section of a ladder bar. This means they'll fit under the floor of a custom with minimal or no modifications, especially advantageous when dealing with low cars with scant room underneath! I've installed this setup a couple of times, including on the Rod & Custom project '49 Chevy. This type of suspension also has the benefit of no wheel hop, unlike the parallel leaf systems they usually replace, and is the type of setup widely used in NASCAR racing. It's rugged, simple, and it plain works.
No Limit Engineering also likes the trailing arm system, offering a number of kits for '37-57 Chevy cars as well as '47-54 Chevy pickups, available with airbags or coilover shocks. They recently undertook a trailing arm install on a '51 Mercury chassis belonging to No Limit Owner Rob MacGregor, and while previous kits have used Chevy pickup arms, and even fabricated tubular arms, No Limit Engineering kits will use the box section arms, as shown here, in the future. In addition to being adjustable (before they're welded) for length depending on application, the box section arms eliminate the need to transition from a tube to a flat section for the axle mounting pad, but also offer more rigidity when it comes to axle wrap, reducing the possibility of pinion angle change under acceleration and braking.
The comprehensive kit comprises the trailing arms, axle saddles and U-bolts, Panhard rod and brackets, shock absorbers, airbags, front and rear mounting crossmembers and hardware. Though obviously easier to install on a bare frame, there's no reason this job couldn't be undertaken with the body in place, and with the exception of a new driveshaft and brake plumbing, should be an easy weekend project, offering improved ride quality, air suspension, updated brakes, and modern wheel stud pattern all in one fell swoop.
