Darcie Kent Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Madden Ranch 2008

2008 saw very high yields across wineries in much of the southern hemisphere, as a result of highly favorable climatic conditions. Although in many areas, these high yields brought with them something of a drop in overall quality, this could not be said for South Australia's wines, which were reportedly excellent. Indeed, the 2008 Shiraz harvest in South Australia is said to be one of the most successful in recent decades, and western Australia's Chardonnays are set to be ones to watch out for. New Zealand's Pinot Noir harvest was also very good, with wineries in Martinborough reportedly very excited about this particular grape and the characteristics it revealed this year. Pinot Noir also grew very well in the United States, and was probably the most successful grape varietal to come out of California in 2008, with Sonoma Coast and Anderson Valley delivering fantastic results from this grape. Elsewhere in United States, Washington State and Oregon had highly successful harvests in 2008 despite some early worries about frost. However, it was France who had the best of the weather and growing conditions in 2008, and this year was one of the great vintages for Champagne, the Médoc in Bordeaux, Languedoc-Roussillon and Provence, with Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay grapes leading the way. Italy, too, shared many of these ideal conditions, with the wineries in Tuscany claiming that their Chianti Classicos of 2008 will be ones to collect, and Piedmont's Barberesco and Barolo wines will be recognized as amongst the finest of the past decade.
By far and away the most recognized and widely grown red wine grape varietal in the world is the Cabernet Sauvignon. First cultivated in the 18th century in France, this wonderful cross of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc grapes has long since been the most important varietal for red wines across the globe. Now grown everywhere from its native France to the furthest reaches of the New World, Cabernet Sauvignon is adored and prized by wineries for its hardiness and resistance to rot, as well as its large and sharp flavors and wonderful capability for fine aging Indeed, many of the finest wines of history and the modern age would be simply unimaginable without Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, with the famed wineries of Bordeaux and other important regions using it as the primary grape in their oak aged produce. High tannin levels, acidity and powerful flavors are the characteristics most commonly associated with this varietal, however, when blended and slowly aged, it is capable of a world of flavors and aromas unmatched by any other grape.
California has long been the New World's most important and prodigious wine producing regions, with a history which stretches back to the 18th century and the Spanish pioneers who settled here. Today, California produces vast quantities of wine, and if it were a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine on earth. Despite experiencing many problems in the mid 20th century, including a very serious blight which almost crippled the state's wine industry, the ideal terroir and excellent climate ensured that Californian wines soon became the envy of the New World once again. California produces a vast range of wines, and utilizes a long list of fine grape varietals, with many wineries and their produce more closely resembling those of France and other Old World countries in regards to character, practices and flavors
Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.

Gang steals £1 million of watches from open shop
They walked into a busy branch of Selfridges and left with their haul in 80 seconds. So how did they do it?
The raid
The gang of three men just walked in from the street in the middle of the evening, and headed straight for the designer watches section near the entrance. They used an axe and a crowbar to smash into the cases, and took around 100 watches. Within 80 seconds they left the shop, and were driven away in a Black Mercedes Benz by a fourth member of the gangThe car was found abandoned about a mile away. Detective Constable Adam Cronshaw, of Greater Manchester Police, said: "It was clearly well planned and executed. These men were in and out in less than 80 seconds and were very particular about the watches they selected."
He asked people to be mindful of this theft if they were approached by anyone selling watches - and to call the police. He also noted that the high visibility suits were new, and asked for the public to contact the police if they knew where they had been manufactured or purchased.
He added: "I am appealing for anyone who knows who is responsible or has overhead someone talking about this robbery - either before or after it happened - to contact us in absolute confidence."
The CCTV footage of the robbery has been uploaded to Youtube.
Less success
It's a shocking raid, and so far the gang remains at large. However, not all daring raids go so well for the criminals.Last week in Temecula, California, a masked gang crashed their BMW through the front of an Apple Store, and helped themselves to gadgets. Unfortunately for the gang, their 4x4 wouldn't reverse back out again through the shutters, so they took several attempts to escape. When they finally got out, their number plate was ripped off and left behind in the store - allowing the police to trace the driver.

Jimmy Jean-Louis, who plays "The Haitian" on the hit NBC series Heroes, has become a Goodwill Ambassador for the Pan American Development Foundation (PADF) to help raise awareness and support for children in Haiti. The campaign, called "I Too Am Haiti," seeks to engage the U.S. public in resolving forced labor, trafficking and exploitation of Haiti's children.
"The exploitation of children is a stain on human dignity," says Jimmy. "It is within our reach to create a better future for these children."
The U.S. State Department reported in 2008 that "Haiti is a source, transit, and destination country for men, women, and children trafficked for purposes of forced labor and commercial sexual exploitation." As many as 200,000 children are the victims of this type of exploitation. We commend the work that Jimmy Jean-Louis and PADF are doing to help raise awareness of this tragedy.

A bodyboard is a short, tombstone-shaped board designed for surfing whilst laying flat on your chest, or for the skilful, whilst kneeling on one knee. Like inline skate is to rollerblade, bodyboard is the generic term, where boogie board is a brand.
A variety of design factors change the performance of the bodyboard. The taller the bodyboarder, the longer the board should be. Ideally when standing upright, the board should come up to your belly button. If you tend to ride smaller waves then the board can be a little longer while if you ride bigger waves the board can afford to be shorter. Longer boards with more buoyancy tend to suit heavier riders though they can not manoeuvre as tightly.
A narrower nose on the board creates more straight line speed whilst a wider nose creates better manoeuvrability and a larger pivot area for tricks.
A Guide to Lengths
This is a simple table to give you an idea of what length board you need according to your weight and height. It was taped to the bottom of one of my boards. Caveat emptor, my friend.
Board Length | Body Weight | Height 38.0" | Up to 55kg (121lbs) | Up to 5'6" (168cm) 39.0" | Up to 60kg (132lbs) | Up to 5'8" (173cm) 40.0" | 30-65kg (66-143lbs) | Up to 5'10" (178cm) 41.0" | 30-70kg (66-154lbs) | Up to 6'0" (183cm) 41.5" | 30-75kg (66-165lbs) | Up to 6'2" (188cm) 42.0" | 35-80kg (77-176lbs) | Up to 6'2" (188cm) 42.5" | 40-85kg (88-187lbs) | Up to 6'2" (188cm) 42.0" | 45-95kg (99-209lbs) | Up to 6'6" (198cm) 44.0" | 50-100kg (110-220lbs) | Up to 6'10" (208cm) 46.0" | 50-127kg (110-279lbs) | Up to 7'0" (213cm)

Ozzie Guillen's suggestions of a Hanley Ramirez position-switch to the contrary, a representative for Ramirez told the Palm Beach Post yesterday that no one with the team has said a thing to his client about it:
Ramirez was surprised about reports last week that suggested Marlins manager Ozzie Guillen had not ruled out the idea of Ramirez playing another position. He told [representative Andy] Mota that was never discussed in a brief conversation Ramierz had with new manager Ozzie Guillen last week.
Ramirez had shoulder surgery in September. He's said to be recovering as expected, but you have to wonder how Ramirez would respond to, say, third base with a recovering wing. Or the outfield for that matter.

Yep, over to you Gator…. . . . . . .
- Old Gator - Oct 27, 2011 at 10:47 AM
Hanley must have been not quite recovered from his anaesthesia if he was capable of a "brief conversation" with Slobbering Ozzie. That, or or the Incoherent One must have been taking a beer nap.
Anyway, there you have it – the special brand of communication Slobbering Ozzie has with his players. I wonder what Larry Beinfest though when the Witless of Oz began running his motormouth about what he was going to do with his players without having consulted the brass – you know, in that "all on board team spirit" Scrooge McLoria, Beinfest and the Chihuahua are always advancing as their ideal style of management. I don't know if it's begun to dawn on them yet that they're not going to manage their manager without repeated tazings; their new motto is likely to be "no tazame 'mano!" For those anglos and non-tropicals in the audience, here's a brief lesson in Espanglish conjugation and idiopoeia:
the verb "tazer" (to taze):
tazo (I taze)
tazas (you taze, familiar)
taza (he, she, it tazes; you [imperative, unfamiliar] taze)
tazamos (we taze)
tazais (you, plural familiar) taze
tazan (they taze; you, plural imperative or unfamiliar] taze)'mano is the Espanglish equivalent of the English idiom 'bro. It also happens to be Espanglish for hand. So, ironically, Slobbering Ozzie would be crying "don't taze me hand" – not a half-bad metonymy for that which feeds him. And feeds him. And feeds him….
- Old Gator - Oct 27, 2011 at 10:55 AM
PS – aside from wishing, out loud, for the umpteenth time, that MSNBC would get off its fat lazy R&D-proof nalgas and give us a steenkin' EDIT FUNCTION, I want to mention that the third person plural form of tazer, tazan, is not related to the way Beanbag fans pronounce Lord Greystoke's nickname. There is no relation between Lord Greystoke and Slobbering Ozzie. Greystoke was the guy who famously said "Jane, my mother was an ape. I never knew my father." Slobbering Ozzie was the guy who said…who said…well, what the hell did he say, anyway? I didn't understand a goddamned word of it.

I started write a post critiquing the er vs. ar verb ending and conjugation, and I was like, oh s^!t there has got to be more stuff on the internet I have not looked at that has to be better than arguing with Old Gator.
- Old Gator - Oct 27, 2011 at 12:04 PM
Yeah, I know that – let's just call it an irregular verb. Using the "-er, es, e" form wouldn't have achieved the desired effect, for one thing, and I did identify it as Espanglish, not Spanish. Welcome to Macondo. The grammars were defenestrated long ago.

The Cleveland Cavaliers are not just getting luck into convincing potential hires to turn around the team.
Before agreeing to remain with the University of Kentucky last week, NBA sources report that the Cleveland Cavaliers and John Calipari were deep into negotiations that would have installed the college mentor as both head coach and team president of the Cavaliers for a minimum of ten years.
Dan Gilbert, Cavaliers owner had been persistent in his goal to install Calipari with full control of basketball operations, with sources saying that an offered salary of almost $80 million dollars was turned down by Calipari. ESPN.com also says that part of Cleveland's drive to chase the coach was to enhance its chances of luring back LeBron James to return to the team that drafted him.
All of the Cavalier's effort went for naught when Calipari finally rejected the offer and chose to fully commit to a seven-year extension at Kentucky.
The Cavaliers' offer was as lucrative as they come for coaches with personnel decision in the organization. The kind of arrangement has been typical in the previous years when team tried to lure veteran and successful coaches such as Doc Rivers of the Los Angeles Clippers and just recently, Stan Van Gundy of the Detroit Pistons.
The Cavaliers offer an intriguing position given that it has young All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving, who is also dealing with the prospect of a maximum contract extension, and the pressures of delivering a worthy No.1 overall pick this June 26th after picking Anthony Bennett No. 1, a year ago. Apart from these, there is also the pressure for a new coach to bring the team into the playoffs after multiple years of futility and management's consistent pressure to deliver after LeBron's departure.
The Cavaliers also met recently with other potential hires for the job including Los Angeles Clippers assistants Alvin Gentry and Ty Lue, ex-Memphis coach Lionel Hollins and ex-Clippers coach Vinny Del Negro. Apart from Calipari, Cleveland has also set its eyes on other college coaches such as Michigan State's Tom Izzo and Florida's Billy Donovan.

The Impact of Gene–Environment Interaction and Correlation on the Interpretation of Heritability

Get AccessAbstract
The presence of gene–environment statistical interaction (GxE) and correlation (rGE) in biological development has led both practitioners and philosophers of science to question the legitimacy of heritability estimates. The paper offers a novel approach to assess the impact of GxE and rGE on the way genetic and environmental causation can be partitioned. A probabilistic framework is developed, based on a quantitative genetic model that incorporates GxE and rGE, offering a rigorous way of interpreting heritability estimates. Specifically, given an estimate of heritability and the variance components associated with estimates of GxE and rGE, I arrive at a probabilistic account of the relative effect of genes and environment.

Dyson Cool™ AM07 Tower Fan, White
Product information
Powerful air projection. No blades.
The Dyson Cool™ AM07 Tower Fan generates smooth, powerful airflow for personal cooling. Like all Dyson bladeless fans, it uses Air Multiplier™ technology to draw in surrounding air, creating powerful air projection.
Some fans are quiet but weak; others are powerful but noisy. AM07 is both quiet and powerful. Dyson engineers have reduced turbulence and noise throughout the machine by channelling airflow more efficiently. Motor noise and vibration have been isolated and significantly reduced.
AM07 now houses a Helmholtz cavity, designed to capture and dissipate noise from the motor – which has been calibrated to run slower whilst maintaining powerful airflow.
There's also a remote control for precise airflow control, and the AM07 has a sleep timer which can be programmed to turn off after preset intervals, for ease of use throughout the night.
All Dyson machines are tested rigorously during development, so the AM07 comes with a 2 year parts and labour guarantee.
Key features:
- Air Multiplier™ technology – air is accelerated through an annular aperture, drawing in surrounding air to project smooth, powerful, high-velocity airflow.
- Safe – no fast-spinning blades.
- Acoustic engineering – streamlined air channels for reduced airflow turbulence. Awarded the Quiet Mark by the Noise Abatement Society.
- Energy efficient – engineered to create powerful airflow using 10% less energy than AM02.
- Sleep timer – AM07 can be programmed to turn off after preset intervals ranging from 15 minutes to 9 hours.
- Remote control – 10 precise airflow settings. Curved and magnetised to store neatly on the machine.
- Oscillation control – to project air around the room. One touch for smoother oscillation.
- Easy to clean – no awkward grilles or blades.

Raj Rajaratnam Insider Conviction Upheld by Appeals Court
Galleon Group LLC co-founder Raj Rajaratnam's conviction for directing the most extensive insider-trading scheme in U.S. history was upheld by an appeals court, which ruled the government's use of wiretaps was proper.
The U.S. Court of Appeals in Manhattan, in a decision issued today, affirmed Rajaratnam's 2011 conviction for conspiracy and securities fraud and rejected his challenge to the use of wiretaps in a securities-fraud case.
The hedge-fund manager argued his conviction should be vacated because prosecutors misled the lower court judge who authorized the wiretaps in 2008. Rajaratnam, 56, claimed prosecutors and Federal Bureau of Investigation agents omitted key facts from their request for the secret recordings, called Title III wiretaps, including the existence of an insider-trading investigation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
"Rajaratnam's arguments are not persuasive," U.S. Circuit judges Jose Cabranes, Robert Sack and Susan Carney said in a 29-page ruling. "The record does not support the finding that the omission of the SEC investigation in the Title III wiretap application was made with 'reckless disregard for the truth.'"
Telephone Conversations
The case was the first to focus exclusively on insider trading in which U.S. investigators wiretapped their targets' telephone conversations, a tactic used in organized-crime probes. Jurors listened to more than 45 wiretap recordings, on some of which Rajaratnam can be heard gathering nonpublic information from his sources.
"Rajaratnam had been careful to exchange nearly all of his inside information by telephone," the panel said, quoting U.S. District Judge Richard Holwell's earlier ruling that allowed the wiretaps to be used during Rajaratnam's trial.
"Wiretapping is particularly appropriate when the telephone is routinely relied on to conduct the criminal enterprise under investigation," the panel said. "The district court made the point explicitly in discussing whether the government should have pursued additional 'normal investigative procedures' before seeking a Title III wiretap.'"
'Reckless Disregard'
Benjamin Harris, a spokesman for Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP, the law firm that represented Rajaratnam at trial, declined to comment on the panel's decision.
While Holwell, who presided over the trial, found that prosecutors may have acted with "reckless disregard" in omitting information from the wiretap applications, he allowed prosecutors to use the wiretaps. The appeals court today concluded that prosecutors and agents acted properly and the omitted information "would have only strengthened" the request.
The ruling comes as one of the sources of Rajaratnam's illicit tips, former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. director Rajat Gupta, waits to hear from the same appeals court in his bid to overturn his insider-trading conviction based on the legality of the wiretaps.
Gupta, who was Rajaratnam's former business partner, argues that prosecutors shouldn't have been allowed at his trial to use wiretapped calls in which he wasn't a participant. Gupta was sentenced to two years in prison for insider trading and is free pending his appeal.
Zvi Goffer, a former Galleon trader who worked for Rajaratnam and was also recorded on FBI wiretaps, has also challenged the government's use of wiretaps. Goffer is serving 10 years at a federal prison in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania, after being convicted at a trial in New York in 2011.
Public Companies
Reed Brodsky, the former assistant U.S. attorney who prosecuted Rajaratnam and Gupta and is now in private practice as a partner at Gibson Dunn & Crutcher LLP, said that Rajaratnam's next decision is whether to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.
"I think it's a historic day, though, for the prosecution of insider trading cases," Brodsky said in an interview with Bloomberg Television. "The court essentially said that the government did not in any way shape or form misrepresent facts or was reckless or intentionally omit facts from the wiretap application."
While he declined to say what the ruling may mean for Gupta's appeal, Brodsky said the appeals court's ruling makes it easier for the government to win insider trading cases because prosecutors need only show that someone traded in a stock knowing they had inside information.
"I think prosecutors will take an aggressive view based on that opinion," Brodsky said. "I certainly think it puts the wind at the back of the U.S. Attorney's Office in continuing to use wiretaps if they continue to do so. I think it gives them enormous confidence that these wiretaps will be defended successfully on appeal."
Portfolio Managers
To date, more than 70 people, including portfolio managers, hedge fund analysts and employees at public companies have been convicted of insider trading since the Manhattan U.S. Attorney's Office and the FBI in New York started a crackdown.
Rajaratnam, who oversaw a hedge fund that was among the 10 largest in the world in the early years of the last decade, was convicted by a jury on nine counts of securities fraud and five counts of conspiracy. He's serving his 11-year prison sentence at the Federal Medical Center Devens in Ayers, Massachusetts.
Holwell also ordered Rajaratnam to forfeit more than $53.8 million and pay a $10 million fine.
Jerika Richardson, a spokeswoman for Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara, whose office prosecuted the fund manager, declined to comment.
The Rajaratnam appeal is U.S. v. Rajaratnam, 11-04416, U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (New York); The Gupta case is U.S. v. Gupta, 11-cr-00907, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York (Manhattan).

Agencies to use social media for book drive for Terry Children's Center
The Children's Department is hoping the power of social media can be harnessed to give young people at its Terry Children's Center Facility an opportunity to further support their treatment efforts through the use of books and family-focused DVDs.
As of Feb. 1, department staff, in coordination with the Governor's Office, the Department of Health and Social Services, and the Delaware Libraries began using Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Flickr to launch a monthlong donation drive to the children at the Terry Center.
"The many benefits of reading to children, including how it sets them up for academic and lifelong success, cannot be underestimated," said Gov. Jack Markell. "We saw a great response during the Week of Service last month, as it relates to the goodwill and supportive nature of Delawareans. We also saw an increased level of engagement from the online community with the health-focused social media campaign. Harnessing the power of both efforts is a simple way we can support the boys and girls of the Terry Center."
During the month of February, the public is encouraged to donate new or gently used children's books that are appropriate for ages 6-12, as well as family-friendly DVDs that can be used at the Terry Center. Six Delaware libraries have offered to serve as designated drop-off spots for the items. They are the Wilmington, Hockessin, Newark, Dover, Bridgeville and Millsboro public libraries. The books will be picked up by AmeriCorps members and delivered to the Children's Department, where they will be screened for appropriateness. The agencies involved will use #helpDE and #KidsDE to engage the public through social media and facilitate online discussions regarding the many benefits of reading to children.
The Terry Children's Center is a residential treatment center serving children ages 6-12, who may be experiencing one or more of a variety of mental health challenges. Both residential and day treatment services are available. The TCC serves up to 42 children at any given time. TCC Director Tom Olson said donations of books will especially benefit the children served at the center, because books and other reading materials are often not readily available in their homes.
"This book drive will help us address this discrepancy. Reading can open up new worlds to children, especially for those who may be developmentally or emotionally lagging behind others in their age group," said Olson. "Also, the one-on-one focused interaction of parents and staff reading to a child can give the child self-confidence and a sense of being valued."
Throughout February, follow the Children's Department on Twitter @DelKIDS for updates on the progress of the campaign. Photos will be available throughout the month on Flickr at www.flickr.com/photos/delchildrensdept.
"We're very excited to use social media in a way that allows citizens to become partners in helping the vulnerable children we serve. In many ways, this affirms our belief that children in residential treatment are children that have the same needs hopes and goals shared by all of us," said Karryl McManus, acting secretary for the Children's Department.
The Children's Department provides a range of services to children who have been abused, neglected, are dependent, have mental health or substance problems, and/or have been adjudicated delinquent by the courts. For more information, go to www.kids.delaware.gov.

Kendall Jenner
Kendall Jenner Dumped Harry Styles For Not Taking Her on Tour — Report
Young love can be fickle. Young love can be fleeting. And, if you're Kendall Jenner, it can be over in an instant for some really foolish reasons. According to a report by The National Enquirer (via Celeb Dirty Laundry), the 18-year-old model found out that the quickest way to move on from a guy — even a bonafide hottie like Harry Styles — is to have them leave you off their tour bus. While, to us, any length of time spent on the One Direction tour bus sounds a bit like a nightmarish ordeal, between the hair products coating every surface, the complete lack of privacy, and the near impossibility of ever getting "Best Song Ever" out of your head, Kendall reportedly wanted nothing more than to follow Harry around the world. Sadly, the 1D boys have one cardinal rule when it comes to the road: no girls allowed. While this story sounds a bit dubious to us, on account of Kendall's dual careers as a successful runway model and Keeping Up With the Kardashians fixture, which we're sure she can't just put on the back burner to follow around her fling, if the world needs a PG reason why these two can't be together, it seems this one's as good as any. Do you believe that Kendall would dump Harry over being left off his tour? Source: The National Enquirer / Celeb Dirty Laundry

text: Juan Jesus is tonight's guest on Inter Channel's 'Prima Serata'. He talks about friendships, hobbies, emotions, memories and the future: the Brazilian defender tackles all this and so much more in his interview with Roberto Scarpini, which will be aired tonight on Sky Italia channel 232. We begin by discussing his closest friends, people Juan Jesus spends time with, not just in the dressing room, but also on nights out: "I spend a lot of my time with Coutinho and Jonathan. I knew 'Cou' from the Under-20 World Cup and Jonathan is a bit like an older brother. We often have dinner together: either our wives cook or we eat out." As soon as Juan Jesus mentions Coutinho's name, a video is played in the studio: it's the young striker laughing at his team-mate and even comparing him to Shrek of all people. Juan chuckles in agreement: "It's true, people always say that, it's because of my ears." Juan meanwhile had praise for his countryman saying, "I would compare Coutinho to a Ferrari because once he sets off with the ball you can't catch him. He's tough to defend against in training."

The Australian Health Ethics Committee (AHEC) has established a Working Committee to develop an issues paper on the Commercialisation of Human Tissue Products. The paper is currently entitled Ethics and the exchange, sale of and profit from products derived from human tissue.
In March 2007, the NHMRC endorsed guidelines on organ and tissue donation. The guidelines noted that there is a need for continuing community debate and legislative oversight over the area of commercialism in tissue banking. The matter was referred to the Australian Health Ethics Committee (AHEC) to consider the ethical issues at its meeting in October 2006, and it was agreed that this issue should be addressed as part of AHEC's work program for the 2006-2009 triennium.
At its meeting of 28 August 2007, AHEC decided to develop an issues paper on ethical issues involved in the commercialisation of human tissue, including biobanks and products derived from human tissue. A working committee has been established to draft the Issues Paper.
The purpose of this Issues Paper is to identify ethical issues in the commercialisation of human tissue including biobanks and products derived from human tissue.

Nonhydrolytic sol-gel processes are promising new routes for the preparation of new oxide, silicate and phosphate materials. These reactions are based on aprotic polycondensations with the elimination of small organic molecules (ethers, esters, alkylhalides, etc.) in the absence of hydroxyl groups. One of our goals was the synthesis of new precursors - aluminum chloride-alkoxides - and their nonhydrolytic transformation to alumina by alkylhalide elimination. The second area of interest was improving the synthesis of phosphosilicate gels. We prepared phosphosilicate gels by the elimination of acetic acid esters in heteropolycondensation reactions between silicon(IV) acetate and tris(trimethylsilyl) ester of phosphoric acid. The nonhydrolytic ester elimination provides clear amorphous hybrid phosphonosilicate gels at room temperature. Finally, a novel non-hydrolytic syntheses of a SiO2-TiO2 mixed oxide system by the polycondensation of silicon(IV) acetate with titanium(IV) dimethylamide, diethylamide,and isopropoxide was studied. The materials were tested in the epoxidation of cyclohexene by cumyl hydroperoxide and showed a high selectivity but a mediocre activity. Catalytic properties were significantly improved by combining non-hydrolytic and hydrolytic methods yielding mesoporous and homogeneously mixed silica-titania dioxide.

Tom Tancredo says Denver is a Sanctuary City; John Hickenlooper says it is not
You decide whether you think Denver is a Sanctuary City and that Governor-elect John Hickenlooper would make Colorado a Sanctuary State. The Denver Post's Christopher N. Osher builds a pretty strong case that Denver is no more a Sanctuary City than the rest of Colorado, but Tom Tancredo thinks it is while Hickenlooper, of course, says it isn't. Some of Hickenlooper's strongest supporters, including President Obama, oppose enforcement of border security laws and labor laws that outlaw the hiring of illegals. Do I think Hickenlooper would make Colorado a Sanctuary state? Yes. LINK: Hickenlooper out of line on illegal immigration, foes say, by Christopher N. Oshner.

Oh, I think that's a tough one. IMO, if you and your husband decided to parent your DSD together and you are both on the same page and trust each other, I would do whatever you feel in your heart is the best and most appropriate thing for your DSD (same way you would approach any other parenting issue.)
. . . Sorry I don't have a clear answer. I'm sort of telling you to do the opposite of what I did, if the mom won't go completely crazy against you and your DH. I strongly believe in being honest with children, using age appropriate language. If they ask, that means they're ready to know. Avoiding the questions is never good, IMO. |

hahahaha - we got the same from the 11 yr old That was an interesting night of questions! Especially when she finally got to "you did it more then once?!?!?!" LOL LOL LOL
So, I guess my opinion (in my circumstances) was that the open communication was way more important then anything else. Not because the answers now are so important, but because the comfort in asking you will be VERY important when she gets into the teen years.
I don't know what the answer is, but my philosophy is to always answer honestly, but not to answer anything that wasn't asked. Does that make sense?
I think you need to refer questions to dad and mom. I also think dad needs to stand up to mom and say she is SOL. At 6 she should be having sex education by you adults. He needs to answer these questions. Do a premptive strick on how that baby got there and how it will get out. Difference between man and woman. It is as much as his job as anyone else.
The ex wants to shelter this child. It isn't healthy. Ex is in denial that her baby is growing up and that dad has moved on. |

Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
Award winner taking care of business on, off the field
Jayden McKoy was a busy football player this season.
The Miles Macdonell Buckeye — who was named the winner of the Winnipeg High School Football League's Harry Hood Memorial Trophy and the Potter Division's offensive player of the year on Nov. 28 — was listed as a quarterback, but that hardly begins to describe his contributions to the team.
"I wouldn't say he was the best quarterback in the league," said Miles Mac head coach Dan Washnuk. "He was far and away the best football player and athlete."
After starting the season at wide receiver, McKoy moved under centre and led the Buckeyes all the way to the ANAVETS Bowl, which they lost to St. Paul's.
He also played safety, returned punts and kickoffs, and at the end of the season was Miles Mac's punter.
McKoy only passed for three touchdowns, but he ran for 10 more, returned two interceptions all the way and took three kick returns the distance.
The switch to quarterback was a major adjustment for the St. Vital resident, who started his football career with the Mustangs.
"It was a big difference cerebrally," said the Grade 12 student. "I had to know the entire offence, what every player was doing on every play. I had to read defences. It's a lot different from playing receiver."
And if all that wasn't enough, McKoy had to attend defensive and special-teams meetings and learn all those schemes.
"It was a lot of meetings, and a lot of film," he said.
The Harry Hood award is about more than just football. The winner is a player who shows academic achievement, school citizenship and demonstrates fair play.
McKoy maintains a 94% average in his French immersion studies while contributing to the school's We Day group and other extra-curricular activities. He plans to play university football while studying mechanical, electrical or computer engineering next year.
"It definitely means a lot (to win the award)," he said. "It shows that football is just one part of life. There are other things to take care of."
Next season, the Buckeyes won't need to find one player to replace McKoy — they'll need to find four.
"Without him we would have been nowhere near as successful as we were," Washnuk said. "We had some talented players, but he was the final piece of the puzzle."
McKoy is the second Buckeye to win the Harry Hood award in the last four years, joining 2009 winner Bryton Balzer.
"I think Miles Mac is certainly a gifted school athletically," Washnuk said, "but our focus is always on academics first. We have some special players, and their academics gets highlighted."
It was also the fourth consecutive year that a Buckeye was named the offensive player of the year in their division, and the second straight year in which the school's coaching staff was honoured as tops in the league.

Looking Back While Looking Forward...
27 comments:
My favourite destination is wherever my sister and her family are! When we are together, THEN we can visit other places. It matters not where, as long as we are together.
I loved reading the excerpt above. In a small way, it reminded me of myself, as for years I have "never made the most of what I have". I am what I am. Since turning 50 a few years ago, though, I am starting to "come out of my shell" and accentuate my assets in order to detract from what I feel are my liabilities.
Funny story: I recently attended our annual badminton banquet and bought myself a new top to go with my usual boring black pants (necessary, as I wear orthotics so can't wear skirts/dresses). I thought the top was sexy on me. It has black silkish material gathered like spandex against my body, with black see-through lace covering the spandex and my bare shoulders. I ditched the black/white polkadot sash that came with it and bought myself a red/black sash instead, donning red earrings too (but no necklace, as I can't wear them re itchiness, plus it would have caught on the lace). When my 24-year-old daughter saw me ready for the banquet and I asked her what she thought, she said, "It's revealing." Hmmm. I said, "If [so-and-so] wore it, would it be revealing on her?" and my daughter said, "No way." So in my eyes, it was just more revealing than I usually wear, but not what society in general wears. I got to said banquet and had many compliments, but the best one (to me) was when a very conservative 71-year-old man out of the blue said to me in his broken English, "I like your dress, or whatever you call it. You look classy." Wow. Revealing from the young'un and classy from the not-as-young'un. Usually it's the opposite reaction, I would think!I've always loved history & archaeology - best of luck to your daughter for a happy & successful future.
When I really want to relax I love to be at the beach, but sitting in the shade with a good book (or actually several books).Christina, what a great set up for a book! I love the idea of an archaeologist. I've had a heroine who's a marine archaeologist and would love to have another one some time. Your setting is so gorgeous too. I'm looking forward to this one.
Favourite destination to get away from it all? A book - no travel involved!Hi Christina,
For me the best getaway destination is definitely a good book, as it can manage to transport me to a whole new world,yes it might not be a real world but for me it is the escape that I need for everyday situations in life. A Christian book can make me feel closer to the word of God and a romance book can make me feel as if I am experiencing the passion between two characters that the author is sending accross.
Thank you for sharing your lovely post with us and thank you for the lovely chance to win your really nice sounding book.

Marketing to investors vs. current tenants
Marketing to investors vs. current tenants
Robert Griswold
Inman News
Q: I have a rental condo that I want to sell due to some financial issues and I could really use the money. My tenants have had three one-year leases and asked that I give them a new two-year lease because they say they love my rental condo. Because I was unsure of my finances, I let their current lease expire so that they now are on a month-to-month rental agreement. My understanding of our state law is that I am simply required to give them a minimum of 60 days' written notice to terminate their tenancy. Can I give them 60-day notice and then have the unit vacant for selling?
A: Yes, you can give them the required notice to vacate. In some areas you may be required to give the tenants a reason for the termination of the tenancy. Even if not required, I think it would be a good idea, as the tenants deserve to know your reasoning.
But besides just being a fair and reasonable landlord, there is another potential positive aspect of explaining your situation, as you might find that your current long-term tenants are interested in purchasing the condo from you.
You might even consider offering them a limited first right of refusal or excluding them from the listing agreement with your real estate agent if they are qualified and interested. You could also offer them a net price, as you wouldn't have to pay real estate commissions.
While you may not need help finding a buyer, I would strongly advise that you retain or consult with a real estate professional or an attorney to assist with the procedural aspects of the transaction. Remember that a real estate professional does a lot more than just market your property.
Even if your current tenants are not willing or able to buy your condo, I would suggest you take the time to consider another option before giving your tenants notice. I know that many real estate agents have very strong opinions about the benefits of selling a property when it is vacant.
I cannot disagree with that practice, especially when the most likely buyer is planning to be an owner-occupant. But in today's market, I believe that there are many areas in the country where there are more investors than owner-occupant buyers.
While much of the nation has experienced very high unemployment, there seems to be a tremendous amount of investment capital seeking good-quality real estate for the long-term investment opportunities and as a hedge against what some see are likely to be inflationary times, in light of the record government spending projected for the next decade.
While there are many opportunities for real estate investors to buy vacant and often foreclosed rental properties, you might actually be able to attract a better offer from a real estate investor if you can show that your tenant is paying a reasonable market-rate rent and is seasoned.
Many real estate investors are wary of some investment opportunities in the current economic climate, as it can take quite some time and a lot of expense to prepare a vacant unit for rent, market the property, screen the prospective tenants and still have zero cash coming in during this time.
Wouldn't your rental condo be more attractive to a real estate investor who is looking to rent out the property if you can tell the investor that you have a long-term tenant who has been in your property for three years and wants to stay for at least another 24 months? Long-term, quality tenants and low turnover are keys to success for rental property owners.
So I would suggest you contact a local real estate broker who knows the local market and the type of likely buyers before you send out a notice to your great tenants. You could be disrupting their lives and actually hurting your chances to sell your rental condo for a great price in a short time.
Remember that most investors will be looking to obtain financing, and a lender would certainly like to see an established tenant in possession.

"Stories that shake one's sense of reality, stories that take you on a trip down a metaphorical rabbit hole interest me," says Sarita Sundar, as we meet in Koramangala over mint ginger drinks and a platter of Insalata di Caprese.
A visual artist based in the neighbourhood and co-owner of Trapeze, a multidisciplinary design consultancy, Ms. Sundar believes in exploring various art forms and sustainability in design. She has a particular interest in exploring the forgotten form of storytelling through shadow puppetry.
"I have always liked 'Alicisms', maybe it's an interest in nonsense... I feel books, or anything that has an inbuilt amount of irreverence to it, lend themselves to multiple meanings and translations, with gems waiting to be discovered."
"Anyone who has witnessed a shadow puppet performance in a village has to be transformed by the experience. Shadow puppets engage mythology in a contemporary manner, they are very participatory, there is no gap, you are almost sort of touching the performers, and you are engulfed."
The role of heritage in society is a vital one, says Ms. Sundar. "What is worth saving? Memories, recipes, poems, songs. To preserve all of that and to convert them into a form of creative expression, that's an area I want to eventually get into."
As a creative designer, she also hopes that the idea of sustainability will be looked upon and taken seriously, especially in the urban setting. "Designers can be conscious about not wasting materials. Here, for instance, we try to work on projects where the materials used are up-cycled."
After two decades in Bangalore, she says the city is finally emerging with platforms for the arts. "It was a lot quieter in the early 90s but now there are exciting events every weekend, and it has the potential to become a good space for artists."
