I use a blender quite often and this one meets my needs perfectly.
This is a good blender. I'm just disappointed that the part that looks like gleaming metal in the photograph is really just a piece of plastic.
It has many speeds...can even crush ice! Great for making smoothies. Very durable. A great investment!

Comments Thread For: Larry Merchant Discusses Andre Berto's Ring Return
A scant four and a half months ago, former welterweight champion Andre Berto participated in one of 2011s finest fights as he traded knockdowns and went toe to toe with Victor Ortiz. The action was riveting but unfortunately for Berto, he would end up suffering the first loss of his career by way of unanimous decision after seeing Ortiz take much of the fights initiative.

"The Art Dealer" typifies Quik's use of bold color and his practice of incorporating pop cultural icons into his work. Here, the artist employs the face of Felix the Cat, covering the famous feline with a brilliant smattering of colors and rendering the character with an enormous cartoon smile. The surrounding text adds irony to the work, making it a commentary on the tension between street art and the mainstream art world.
Growing up in Queens, New York, Lin Felton a.k.a. QUIK (b. 1958) started tagging around his neighborhood during the 1970s, and by the 1980s he was one of the few New York graffiti artists to be shown in art galleries and museums. Throughout his career, QUIK's artistic style has matured to include ironic commentaries on social, political, and personal topics while still maintaining his personality and the spirit of graffiti. QUIK has exhibited widely throughout the United States and abroad, with recent solo shows at Green Flowers Art Gallery, Boulogne-Billancourt, France; AAA Gallery, Rotterdam, Netherlands; Avenir Finance, Paris, France; and Galerie Arte Ventuno, Brussels, Belgium

Mountain View 4, Wilson 0: Freshman forward Zach Emerson scored two first-half goals, leading the Cougars (9-4-2) over the visiting Trojans (6-6-3) in Bend.
Sophomore forward Mario Torres and senior forward Bryce Tipton added second-half goals, and junior goalkeeper Levi Schlaphfer made 10 saves in Mountain View's third consecutive shutout. The Cougars outshot the Trojans 21-15.
"They are a very physical, senior-laden team, but we were able to take advantage and stretch them out on our bigger (regulation-size) field," Mountain View head coach Chris Rogers said.
Mountain View will host Crescent Valley in a Class 5A quarterfinal on Saturday.

K9 Officer Down Memorial Page
I am a member of the Officer Down Memorial Page where you can see recent officer deaths and leave condolences for the family members....they just started a k9 officer down page and I was very upset to see the first two deaths were of k9 officers left in cars You can still leave condolences, but just fyi, if you try to post anything mean or bad (even if the handlers deserve it) they will take it down because this is supposed to be a memorial page not a message board.

This is probably the most awful:
"K9 Chase was shot and killed after being abducted from his handler's patrol car at the Leeman Field fairgrounds in Pennington Gap. His handler had stopped at the fairground to use the restroom and left Chase in the idling patrol car. When the officer returned he discovered that Chase was missing. Chase's body was located in roadside ditch suffering from a gunshot wound two days later.

I didn't get to read the whole article (sorry), but I would wonder how anyone could get a k9 out of the car to do that in the first place. There are some very hard working individuals who do k9 (police) work, but then you got your want to be, related to someone who wants a police car and a dog and is as dumb as a rock and gets it.
In our town we lost an upstanding Marine (also cop) do to the war and his dad a state law officer was just crippled for life, due to his job. |

Booker Vineyard Vertigo 2005
Rhone Red Blends from Central Coast, California
Winemaker's Notes
A true Rhone blend, the Vertigo, has an exquisite palate of red fruit and supple texture. This wine is layered with velvety tannins that carry through to a deliciously long finish. Year to year, this is always Booker Vineyard's most versatile wine.
Critical Acclaim
The Wine Advocate - "The 2005 Vertigo (Syrah) exhibits a deep ruby purple color and smoky cassis notes intermixed with hints of pepper and roasted herbs. Elegant, medium to full-bodied, and moderately tannic, it should age nicely for 10-12 years." -
International Wine Cellar - "Glass-staining ruby. Spicy red and dark berry aromas display impressive intensity and clarity. Explosive raspberry and cassis flavors stain the palate but retain focus and energy. A suave cracked pepper quality builds through the long, sweet finish. This clocks in at 16.6% alcohol but betrays no heat or obvious overripe character."
Booker Vineyard Winery
Booker Vineyard is located on Paso Robles' Westside, immediately joining the famous Stephan Vineyards that produce L'Aventure Wines. The high-density vineyard is mostly Rhone varietals planted on steep hillsides of calcareous shale. The name Booker comes from the two orphan brothers Claude and Dick Booker who had owned the land, as well as hundreds more acres on Paso's Westside. The Booker brothers were Paso's favorite sons, dedicating their lives to being great farmers and humanitarians. Aside from lending their farming knowledge and manual labor to neighbors and those in need, they were the area's biggest philanthropists, leaving 100% of their estate to charity when they passed.
At Booker Vineyard we have dedicated our lives to farming perfection. We are constantly striving to find perfect balance in our vineyard through sustainable farming practices and methods. Beginning in the spring of 2010 we began our venture into the world of Biodynamics. Our wines are always 100% estate fruit and are a true reflection of the calcareous and salicious shale hillsides provided by our Westside Paso Robles vineyard. View all Booker Vineyard Wines
About Central Coast
The largest of California's wine growing regions, the Central Coast produces the majority of California's wine. The district sprawls out, covering most of the vineyard land between San Francisco and Santa Barbara. Smaller sub-AVAs of the Central Coast include Monterey Bay, Paso Robles, Santa Ynez Valley, Santa Maria Valley, Santa Cruz Mountains and many others.
Notable Facts
Grape varieties range from Pinot Noir and Chardonnay to Cabernet Sauvignon and Zinfandel. Some Central Coast wine is generic, bulk wine that contributes to the high production numbers of the area. But many winemakers and wineries, particular in some of the smaller AVAs, are small production artisans, creating unique and high-quality wine. The great thing about the Central Coast is its diversity - you're able to find a number of grape varieties and styles at a number of different price points.About California
It's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.
Customer Reviews
Sign In to Add Your Review0 }div>Alcohol By Volume Guide
Most wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.Wine Style Guide
Light & Crisp
- Light to medium bodied wines that are high in acid and light to medium fruit. Typically no oak.
Fruity & Smooth
- Light to medium bodied wines with lots of juicy fruit, typically medium acid and medium oak.
Rich & Creamy
- Full bodied wines that have typically undergone malo-lactic fermentation and/or spent time in oak.

List of Recommended Street Trees
The List of Recommended Street Trees is reviewed and adopted annually by the Urban Forestry Council (UFC). This list helps provide information on species that are the best performers in our city. When using this list to help select a species to plant, make sure to consider microclimates and existing infrastructure. It's important to keep in mind all factors that may affect a tree in the location that it's being planted and it's always better to get a tree that fits the spot well than it is to try and prune it to make it fit.
The List includes trees that do well in just about every microclimate in the city as well as trees that grow well in specific conditions that are part of one climate in the city, but might not be best for another.
The UFC works with key urban forest stakeholders, including the Department of Public Works and Friends of the Urban Forest for an annual review and update.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Posted: 02/3/2014 4:02 PM | Comments: 0

WINNIPEG - The Canadian women's soccer team will get another chance this year to try and beat the United States when the rivals meet May 8 in Winnipeg.
Canadian midfielder and Winnipeg native Desiree Scott is thrilled the team will play in her hometown for the first time since 1990.
"I'm beyond excited," she said. "I've been waiting for this day to come."
Canada lost to the No. 1-ranked Americans 1-0 in Texas on Friday and hasn't managed to beat them since 2001.
"Obviously we didn't play our best match but we had our opportunities in that game and I think we're inching ... closer to the Americans," said Scott, a member of the 2012 bronze-medal Olympic team.
Winnipeg has already been named as one of the six host cities for FIFA Women's World Cup in 2015, but fans in the Manitoba capital won't see the home squad in that competition.
Canadian head coach John Herdman was also on hand for Monday's announcement and said the team has been in a talent development and refocusing phase since the Olympics, which is starting to show results.
"Last year was a huge learning curve for the team and we did all right but this year's about stepping forward and I hope when we play the big teams we can get a (win) and that should put us in a good place heading into 2015," he said. "The opportunity to beat a team that hasn't been beaten in 12 years by Canada? Man, the script's already been written I think."
The Canadian team, which is ranked seventh in the world, is announcing its friendly schedule piecemeal and will make a stop in Edmonton on Tuesday.
Scott said she's anxious to play in front of friends and didn't shy away from trying to twist a few arms to ensure a good crowd at Investors Group Field, the home of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers.
"It's going to be a great game and I hope all of Winnipeg comes out," she said. "You really have no excuse not to be there."
Scott currently plays for FC Kansas City as part of the new National Women's Soccer League.
Meanwhile, a new study predicts women's World Cup soccer events this year and next in Canada will create about $337 million in overall economic activity.
Six provinces will get a share, ranging from a high of $80 million in Alberta to a low of about $26 million in Manitoba. Tournament games will also be played Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia and New Brunswick.
Most of that $337 million will be generated by Women's World Cup, with about $70 million coming this year from the under-20 women's World Cup. Winnipeg won't see any under-20 action this year.
The preliminary report prepared by the Canadian Sport Tourism Alliance looks at out of town visitors, capital construction costs and the costs of hosting competitions. It said the net economic activity for Canada would run about $169 million.

Which resort in Lake Tahoe??
Im not sure if this is the right section but im planning on taking my girlfriend to a resort in Lake Tahoe for the weeekend for our 1 year to go snowboarding. I also want it to be nice of course and have some nice things to do. She has never boarded before and I haven't in several years so I will also need a resort that will have easy runs.
Im really considering Northstar because it has an ice skating ring, and other things to do, they're also having a good package on hotel and lift tickets. Any input on this? Thanks. |

Northstar is a good overall resort, lots of stuff to do. There's something about Northstar that gives me a very, village vibe. I love it.
The slopes themselves aren't any special, what you find there can be found pretty much everywhere in Tahoe. But they don't have a lot of green, (at least that I can remember) However, if you want pure snow, go to Kirkwood |

I dont advise you to go to Northstar because your friend is only a beginner. And Northstar is expensive! Try going to something cheaper because shes a beginner and won't care about the terrain park, black runs, blue runs. She'll probably be on the green runs all day. Go to somewhere cheaper like Donner Ski Ranch (30-42 bucks) or Boreal(30-49 bucks) . Also, if you go to Boreal apply for the iRide card, so on your 3rd day you get a lift ticket for free. Get the beginner package for her, lessons.

^^^^Agreed! If you aren't too sharp on a board and she's never been riding, make sure you get her lessons. Otherwise she'll be grumpy the whole time. Lessons will ensure that, while sore and grumpy, she'll have understood the basic concepts. Forewarn her that she will fall a ton and she will be sore a ton, but that getting through those kinks will ensure that she learns how to ride!

I consider N* my home mountain and I wouldn't take a n00b. A buddy of mine had no choice, but I'd head to a place like Sierra at Tahoe (great instructors, in my experience) which is really mellow and an easy resort to mess around at.
Getting through the village at N* is always a mess. and if you don't have VP, it's not even worth it on the weekends.

Poll: Should Stefan Have Let Damon Kill Caroline?
Caroline going vamp creates a tricky situation. Unlike Vicki, Blondie's high profile. People will notice if she suddenly stops going to school or being seen in broad daylight. What's more, if she lives, not only could other innocents die, she could also out the Salvatores as bloodsucking centurians. So do what do you think?
Everybody else knows the truth about Caroline. But her boyfriend's still in the dark. It doesn't seem fair. Plus, we've gotta admit, it's going to be hard to hide the fact she's persona non grata to sunshine. So what do you say?
Speaking of truths, Caroline has no idea why a woman — who looked exactly like Elena — gave her a message for the Salvatores, then suffocated her to death.

Vince Wilfork Interception Among National Football League's Top Defensive Plays of 2011
June 24th, 2012 at 7:52 PM
Vince Wilfork is the heart and soul of the New England Patriots defense. His sheer size necessitates double-teams from opposing offensive lines and opens up pass-rushing lanes for his teammates.
Most of his contributions involve taking on bodies and stuffing the run. However, he made a couple of flashy interceptions in...

HARRISBURG, Pa. -- Juniata or McKean County residents who suffered losses as a result of severe weather and flooding Aug. 20 and 21 have only one more week to apply for state and federal disaster aid. The deadline to apply is Nov. 1.
"We've had more than 900 applicants from these counties requesting help," said Jack Schuback, federal coordinating officer for the Pennsylvania disaster-recovery effort. "However, there may be people who need help and have not applied. We would like to reach every eligible disaster victim."
Schuback urged anyone who suffered damages or losses as a result of that flooding to begin the process by calling the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) toll-free registration number, 1-800-462-9029. Speech- and hearing-impaired applicants can call 1-800-462-7585 (TTY).
As of Friday, federal and state officials report more than $2.3 million has been disbursed to McKean and Juniata residents in the form of grants for housing assistance and other serious disaster-related needs, and as U.S. Small Business Administration low-interest loans for homeowners, renters and businesses.
"If you already have applied and have questions about your application, you can call the FEMA Helpline for information, even after the deadline has passed," Schuback said. The Helpline number is 1-800-525-0321. The number for speech- and hearing-impaired applicants is 1-800-462-7585 (TTY).

Picked this up on for about 15$ at Costco. Screw-cap. I've had a couple of other Rieslings from Pacific Rim and found them to be enjoyable. A different, less mineral, less acid style than Germany. (Maybe I'm insane? Just doesn't taste quite like German Riesling. More fruit, less rock.) Just a bit of residual sugar--0.9% and relatively low alcohol at 12.2%. Typical Riesling diesel notes at first, along with peach and candied lemon (actually, very similar to a lemon bar that I had to taste for work last week). Once it's in your mouth, peaches lead into an orangey-lemon peel (slightly bitter) finish. A nice amount of sweetness and acidity; stood up to spicy jerk catfish, quinoa, and a tomato burrata salad. Despite everything, I felt like this was missing a bit of "wow factor." (Am I getting more jaded? I feel that way...) B+ We made jerk catfish because we went to this crazy Jamaican restaurant that I saw in the LA Times. It's called Front Page Jamaican Grill. The place was awesome; pretty good food, especially for what is basically an out of the way strip-mall joint bordering on a bad neighborhood. It's in Inglewood, so I imagine that there are a lot of people that won't even consider going there. Well fuck that. Don't be a pussy. It's one of those "only in LA" places, and it's worth a trip, especially if you're in the vicinity of the airport and like new experiences. I had curry goat, Sarah had grilled jerk snapper. A little expensive, but a cool vibe, with a live DJ and reggae blaring. Snapper was definitely better than the goat. Next time I'm going to get the jerk chicken instead of the curry goat...

VINTJS Pinot Gris 2009 Willamette Valley
The last VINTJS wine I had was pretty clunky Chardonnay. Shocking--it was from California. In the end, I guess it was okay, and you get what you pay for. I basically have written off a lot of Trader Joes wines at this point, especially their private label stuff. Fine for sangria or chugging, but generally, it leaves something to be desired, in particular at the super low-end. Sure, there's palatable stuff there, but it's not really interesting. Maybe that's why the majority of people that end up on this site are looking at stuff pertaining to TJ's wine? I don't know; I think it's funny that you would spend the time to research some 4$ bottle of plonk from a random source. It's probably cheaper to just buy a bottle and try it out. At the very least, you end up drunk. Anyways, the only reason that I picked this up is that Pinot Gris from Oregon can be really good, and this is a departure from TJ's. I'm used to seeing California wines in these labels, or something from Australia. I don't think I've ever seen anything from Oregon before. 5.99$, and comes with a screw-cap. Says on the back of the label that the vintner is Wine By Joe, a rather inauspicious name if there ever was one. This is typical Pinot Gris from Oregon, and is quite good, especially for the price. Do I prefer the wine from Willamette Valley Vintners that you can get for 12$ at Costco (been available on a regular basis for at least six months and we've had at least 6 bottles of it) to this wine? Yes, but this wine is half the price, and delivers just about the same amount of pleasure. Very floral on the nose, with lots of orange and stone notes. Eventually, the wine develops more green apple/pear aromas. Lots of acidity and a persistent stoney grapefruit finish round this wine out. This doesn't have the richness of some barrel-aged Pinot Gris that would be more along the lines of Alsatian wines. Went very well with squid and also didn't get completely destroyed by heirloom tomatoes with buffalo mozzarella. Worth checking out, especially at the price. B+/A-

Saint-Pierre Tradition Cotes du Provence Rose
This was 10$ at Costco, calling my name. Been really lazy lately with the wine-buying, but it's also partly utilitarian. I'm going back to school to get my MBA, which is expensive, but should be worth it in the long-run. That means that I don't want to get tempted walking into K&L...I'm not nearly as tempted as walking into Costco, because I know that there's only a few things that I would reasonably purchase in a normal situation. Anyways, looks like I'm destined to drink more wines along the lines of the Big House Red Octavin than I have been for the past six years.
I wanted to like this wine, but ultimately, I think it's the lamest rose that I've had this year. (Note to Costco--bring back the Couly-Dutheil rose--it's 3$ more, but I will gladly buy it.) Lots of strawberry and cherry notes, with a stony under current and the faintest touch of cream (??). Good acidity; refreshing to drink. Comes off as pretty sweet. Is there some residual sugar in this rose? I think maybe just a touch. Goes well with food--a riff on bruschetta with tomatoes, squid, onions, toasted bread and Parmigiano-Reggiano (Cheese on seafood? Heresy, I know.). This is one of those wines that there's nothing wrong with, but for whatever reason, I wasn't into it. On the flip side, Sarah was delighted with it. Trouble is, I think you can get much more interesting and better rose for the same price. C

Chateau Bel Air Bordeaux Superieur 2005
It's been quite a while since I've had a red Bordeaux. It isn't exactly a "value" category, if you know what I mean. I was intrigued that this was 8$ at Costco and was also from 2005. It's incredibly interesting to me that there are still 2005 Bordeaux on the market in places other than wine shops. Really, the vintage has been available at least a couple of years. It just goes to show that there's a lot of inventory out there, and the hype machine is in full effect for 2009 Bordeaux now as well. So I figured that this might be a pretty good deal. Just because someone has to (or wants to) dump it cheap doesn't mean it isn't good. On the contrary, actually. This wine is mainly Merlot, but also sports 11% Cabernet Franc, and 7% Cabernet Sauvignon. This isn't as good as some of the more expensive Bordeaux that I've had, but this is cheap. You could drink it everyday if you wanted to. The nose is focused on darker fruits (blackberry and plum), and becomes more expressive the longer it's open, eventually showing notes of pencil, earth, mint, and a bit of vanilla. More linear and less fruity than I expected after smelling it, this wine also has a good deal of tannin and a finish that is reminiscent of over-extracted black tea. There's good balance as well. Definitely something to drink with some food, just to calm down the tannins some, but this is pretty good for 8$, if perhaps a bit austere. I daresay that this will probably also get more complex and could age for longer. I'm going to grab a couple more bottles and forget about them. B+

"Trinch!" Bourgueil Catherine et Pierre Breton 2009
It's been a good while since I've had a Cab Franc, and after a couple of spectacularly boring wines this week, I wanted to make sure that I opened something that would be good. This is 16$, imported by Kermit Lynch, and is made by Catherine and Pierre Breton. Grown bio-dynamically (whatever that means...check out this web-site for some interesting insights into Rudolph Steiner if you have some time to kill) as well. Pretty much a slam-dunk for me liking the wine. This wine features lots of Cab Franc-ness, with violets, candied cherries, just a hint a leafiness/tobacco and loads of rocks. Mineral driven finish, backed up by a lot of acidity, and some tannin for good measure. Fresh. Not a really "serious" cab franc in the sense that it is really meant to be delicious young, drunk with food in reckless quantities out of a carafe, and probably not aged. (I think that the plastic cork and the exclamation point in the title probably portend that.) Worth checking out. Slightly cheaper than a lot of Chinon, but not quite as serious either. Maybe a little more pricey than some of the stuff that you get from Bourgueil normally, but then again, this is also Kermit Lynch in combination with some awesome vintners. B/B+

Cantina Zaccagnini Montepulciano d'Abruzzo Riserva 2007
I picked this up at Costco for 12$. I figured that since this is the first time that I've seen a Montepulciano d'Abruzzo at Costco, that it might be interesting, if not at least good. You can't see it in the picture, but the bottle had a weird cutting of what I'm assuming was a dried out grape vine/twig tied to it. Strange. I guess the reason that Costco is carrying this is that Parker gave it 90 points, and 12$ is probably a decent deal for a Parker 90 pointer.
We drank this with pasta alla norma, and it went pretty well with it. (More and more, I'm starting to view wine as a "cocktail" as an aberration...) The wine features plummy, figgy, currantty, bordering on raisin fruit with notes of licorice, and just a bit of spice or earth lurking in the background. This wine took a while to really open up; initially it seemed incredibly closed and wasn't showing much of itself. There is a good amount of acidity to back up the fruit. Sarah and I weren't all that impressed with this wine for two reasons: 1. Isn't Montepulciano d'Abruzzo normally a really bright, rustic cherry-ish wine? This one isn't...it's besieged by the scourge of Parker and doesn't seem like it's typical or has the soul of a Montepulciano d'Abruzzo. 2. It's just not that interesting. That being said, there's nothing wrong with this wine. It's just uninspired. C
Lastly, you ought to read an interesting take by W. Blake Gray called the "100 Point Scale and Liberal Elitism." As I've said a lot of times, Gray seems to be pretty on point and I really enjoy his writing. However, I do have one problem with his analysis on the 100 point scale. And that's that he contends the market "levels the playing field" so that everyone can understand wine. I don't think that's true. I think it adds more noise to an already confusing system. I was talking to my friend the other night over some California wines, (He happens to be the wine buyer for a supermarket chain), and we were talking about how people buy wine. Kendall Jackson is the number one wine in the United States, and it doesn't have anything to do with points. It has to do with branding. The reason that it has to do with branding, and that points are prevalent, is that most people don't have a clue as to what to buy, what's good, or even in a lot of cases, what they might like. They've figured out that they like Kendall Jackson, or Mondavi, or whatever other wine that sells well, but they can't make the leap and figure out what else they're going to like. So they keep on buying the ubiquitous wine that's everywhere and they look for that. There's nothing wrong with that. Do they care that it got 87 points from Wine Spectator? No. Does the 87 points help them out? No. When they go get other 87 point wines, or a 90 point wine, and they don't like it because it isn't similar, did the points help them out? No. They confuse them. Points only level the playing field to the extent that the players are able to understand what they're getting when they buy a wine that has X points from a particular taster. I know I don't really like a lot of Tanzer wines. So I stay away from them. People that might be inclined to pick up some Kendall Jackson, probably don't know whether they like Parker, Tanzer, or Gary V. What point does it serve to have their opinion out there when people are buying into the brand? Points don't simplify things, they make them more complicated...and points are like a secondary brand that is on something. Call it a co-brand. Regardless, Gray is right. People should drink what they like. If it's not what you like, it's none of your business.

Belleruche Cotes du Rhone Rose 2009
Picked this up for 9$ at the LA Wine Company. I've had a couple of different vintages of the Chapoutier Cotes du Rhone too. This is about right for 9$ rose--watermelon and lots of rocks. B+ I drank this with a couple of old colleagues. They had a bottle of the Franciscan Magnificat Meritage 2006 open when I got there. Apparently, it's on sale right now for 15$ at F&E...seems that they can't sell it. It retails online for 40$, which is absurd. I guess in a normal Ralph's it would be $23.99. Anyways, definitely California--big and ripe, with vanilla, dark berries almost bordering on jam, and a slightly smokey edge. Very smooth. Quite good I think, although definitely not at 24$, or god forbid, 40$+. At 15$, this is a much better deal...but you can get a lot of stuff that's comparable from Spain or Australia for less. B (at 15$) Also had a little bit of the Franciscan Cab, which retails for the same price as the Magnificat Meritage. Not even close to as good as the Meritage. Overly ripe, jammy, monolithic and flabby. Yuck. I wonder when California is going to have a shake out like Australia? I can't believe that this retails for $24. Crazy. WAY overpriced. Really, it's not demonstrably better than the Big House Red, which is all of 3.25$ a bottle if you get the Octavin. D

Ecker Zweigelt 2009
This is the second bottle of Zweigelt that I've picked up this summer. 11$ at the LA Wine Company for a full liter. This is a Thierry Thiese wine. Instead of coming with a beer bottle cap, this one comes with a screw-cap, but not one that you would typically see on wine bottles. This one is a little more crowd-friendly than the Becker that we had a couple of weeks ago as it's much fruitier. There's still the same Zwiegelt pepperiness (reminds me a lot of Cab Franc, actually), but instead of being at the forefront, it's in the background. In the foreground is the bright, delicious cherry fruit, which reminds me of cherry pie. Very well made, and more new world than it's companion the Becker, which is funkier. I actually like the Ecker better because it's got a lot of fresh fruit and great balance. Went awesome with tomatoes too, which is a hard task. If you haven't been getting out to the Farmer's Market (or Whole Foods...stay away from TJ's--their tomatoes suck ass) to get some heirloom tomatoes right now, you are officially not that smart. Summer at its' best with a little mozzarella, burrata or creme fraiche, good olive oil, salt, pepper, basil, and maybe some balsamic. There are also lots of good squash, peppers, eggplants, melons, and a smorgasborg of stone fruit...all delicious...you should be going nuts while you can. A

Castillo de Monseran Garnacha 2008
What can I say, except that I always hope when I pick up a 5$ bottle of wine at TJ's it will be good? It's as elusive as Shangri-La, or Ponce de Leon seeking the mythical "Fountain of Youth." (Ironically, the fountain of youth resides in present day Florida. Go figure.) Anyways, sad thing is, it rarely is all that great. Sure, there are occasionally good finds. Sure, there's a lot of stuff that's palatable, if perhaps somewhat on the wan side. But more and more, I'm finding that I want something that lives up to a certain standard--and more often than not, I'm finding myself disappointed. This wine is a good case in point--cheap Garnacha from a country that has been making cheap wine for centuries should be good. The problem is, by the time you factor in transportation and everything else, you end up with really cheap wine. Cherries, just a bit of pepper, some acidity, and no finish to speak of. A resounding "meh." This wine is drinkable--there are no flaws other than the fact that it is boring and insipid. You'd be much better served with an Octavin of Big House Red for a whole lot less, or to trot out an old favorite, the Perrin Cotes du Rhone for two dollars more. D+/C-

Muga Reserva Rioja 2005
23$ at Costco; call it a recession special. 23$ is a few dollars cheaper than everywhere else. I doubt Costco would have been able to get their hands on this a few years ago. I don't know why I picked this up--I guess I like to stretch the limits of what I think I like and this seemed interesting. The simple fact that this is from Jorge Ordonez probably should have turned me off...But, I had read or heard somewhere that Muga was a traditional Rioja estate...with modern leanings...and I think that's exactly what this wine is. There is no denying that this wine is made in a more modern style: ripe cherries, raspberry, and licorice, along with polished tannins. However, this wine is missing the vanilla milk-shake texture, and is superbly balanced. It's the perfect combination of ripe modern fruit and competent wine making. (Interesting that Tanzer liked this wine more than Parker--probably explains why I liked it. Although lets be honest--who gives a fuck about either one, and who cares about 2 points? 90 vs. 92 points is a pointless discussion if there ever was one.) It isn't as savory, spicy, or light to medium bodied as more traditional Rioja, but it doesn't disappoint me either. We drank this with lamb chops, fried mint, mint and garlic creme fraiche, and a red quinoa that I studded with sun-dried tomatoes, caramelized shallots, and Kalamata olives. B+/A-
A couple things that anyone stumbling across this ought to read--the first is from Horny for Food, ripping on wine writers. Stuff to think about, agree with, and lots of clever bon mots. This piece on Super Tasters from the Cab Franco Files is interesting too, and a nice corollary to Horny for Food slamming contemporary wine critics. Really, who tastes the same things anyways? Lastly, I feel like I should document what we've drank a lot of recently:

Beckman Vineyards Grenache Rose 2009
Picked this one up at the LA Wine Company for 15$. I don't care what anyone says about it not being a terribly nice summer here in LA--I fucking love it. It's perfect--by the beach, the highs are about 70--just about right. When it's sweltering hot (lets say anything above 85 degrees), and you don't have AC...well, let's just say that there's a reason that I would prefer to be too cold as opposed to too hot any day of the week. It's so much easier to just put on another layer of clothing. Anyways, it's still summery here, and I have been feeling like drinking lots of rose and white wines. There's lots of summery produce (eggplants, peaches, peppers, squash, tomatoes), and summery stuff going on (yesterday we saw Weezer for free at the Huntington Beach Surf Festival), even if this year we aren't living in an inferno.
This particular wine is pretty good, but I think 15$ is too much for rose. This particular wine has watermelon/strawberry jolly rancher fruit, but is juicy with crisp acidity and a mineral driven finish. The fruit has California written all over it--this wine is much more fruit-forward than any of the other roses we've consumed this summer. Just a tad pricey at 15$. Why so expensive California? It makes me sad... B

"SaSyr" IGT Rocca delle Macie 2007
Picked this up for 12$ at the LA Wine Company. I've had good luck in the past with their recommendations; I really think that's the best way to buy wine in a wine shop. Some people may scoff at that notion, but if you're going to go cold into some wine shop, and you're reasonably comfortable talking about what you like, you'll generally get steered towards something good. It certainly doesn't hurt to have something specific in mind, or to have some wines you'd like to pick up or try for whatever reason (recommendation, curiosity, etc...), but in a good wine shop, your typical salesperson/clerk/owner/alcoholic leading you around, has probably tried a lot more of the wines than you have. Sometimes this backfires--like with this wine. Maybe I should have pulled the plug on a wine with a retarded UFO joke name. Maybe I should have pulled the plug because Sangiovese shouldn't be polluted with Syrah and vice versa. Maybe I shouldn't have taken my own advice, and put this one back. I put quite a few different 15%-ers back in disgust, but on the flip side, the guy also recommended several Kermit Lynch wines and a 5 year old Muscadet...so he wasn't trying to just sell me any old crap. I'll offer a relatively tacky haiku about this wine, because it fits my mood:
Should not be mixed with Syrah.
Ugh. Disappointing.
Lots of dark berries, with smoky, herbal overtones. Has that weird, overly sweet, watery Kool-Aid-ish background taste that you get in lots of cheap wine. I would not say that a terrible amount of Sangiovese character comes through on this wine despite it being 60% of the blend. Not incompetently made, but boring, and honestly, you can get a lot better at this price. C-, but just barely.

Berger Zweigelt 2009
Boy, watch out for liter bottles of wine, especially ones that taste good. For some reason, we always end up draining the entire bottle. Sarah and I just can't control ourselves when confronted with an extra third of a bottle sitting there all lonely and lightly chilled. To be fair to our livers, there isn't all that much difference draining a liter bottle of this delicious peppery juice and draining one 750mL bottle of some 15% monstrosity masquerading as wine. If you do the math and convert to "standardized drinks" (ie one 5oz serving of 12.5% wine, such as this Zweigelt deliciousness), there are 6 standardized drinks in the 15% 750mL bottle, and 6.72 in the full liter at 12.5%. Oh look, I've just justified being a lush (at least to myself). So I ask you, which would you rather consume? I think it's an obvious choice, at least for us.
There are other benefits to this wine as well, which was picked up at the LA Wine Company for $10.99 (in standardized bottle terms, for the math challenged, that's $8.25 a bottle), is selected by Thierry Thiese (a mark of quality if there ever was one, just like Jose Pastor and Kermit Lynch) and comes with a beer bottle cap (I like to think the cap is in place because of the European way of drinking...ie open containers in parks, or on the beach, or well, somewhere public, where it's nice to have an easy to open container. None of this Puritanical bull-shit that masquerades as "the law" in the US.). Particularly peppery, smokey and even a little meaty on the nose, with some cranberry and raspberry fruit lurking in the background. Did I mention the pepper? Lots of pepper in the mouth, and acidity that is a perfect foil for sausages, cheese, and pasta with eggplant and onions. The finish is short, but this is really more about having something cheap, delicious, and refreshing to drink on the table a la Beaujolais, rose, or Gruner Veltliner (we've had the Gruner from this producer too; it's also worth checking out). A- for sheer value.

Coenobium Rusticum 2007
This is a totally weird and wacky orange wine. Paolo Bea and some nuns from Lazio teamed up to make these wines. Anyways, I've been wanting to try something orange for a while. Basically, up until last night, orange was the only style of wine that I've never had. I've had whites, roses, reds, fortified wines, sherries, sparkling wines made Champagne style and in the tank, passito wines, corked wines, cooked wines, natural wines, and a whole bunch of other fermented beverages made from grape juice, but never an orange wine. For those unfamiliar with orange wines, they're made differently than other white wines. Basically, the wine is made like a red wine and is fermented with the skins, which causes three things to happen: 1. The wine is partially oxidized, 2.Atypically for white wine, there are tannins, and 3. Instead of being white, the wine is orange. Anyways, there are better posts than mine to read about the back ground of this wine here and here. I'm not the first person to have tried this wine and been impressed. 55% Trebbiano, 15% Verdicchio, 20% Malvasia and 10% Grechetto. Imported by Neal Rosenthal. $27 from K&L.K&L still has 11 bottles in stock as of right now in Hollywood; if you like interesting stuff, definitely go get a bottle before they're out. This wine is rad. The nose is honeyed, with marmalade, limes, apricots, almonds, and a hint of spice. There's a lot going on in the mouth too, but mainly what I notice are honeyed citrus notes, and the small bit of tannin at the end. Fantastic balance between all the elements, and superbly poised. This is definitely weird, but definitely cool, and most importantly, delicious. I even feel slightly guilty, what with being a total heathen and drinking nun wine...of course, that never stopped me from drinking Trappist beers before, or this. A

Md. Fire Kills Boy, 5, Injures 2-Year-Old Sister
Fire investigators in Charles County are looking into the cause of a fire that killed a 5-year-old boy and critically injured his 2-year-old sister.
Crews were called to a single-family home in the Strawberry Hills Estates section of Arbor Lane in Bryans Road around 6 a.m. Thursday.
Firefighters found Shevon Conley, 31, standing outside the home with only a few of her six children.
She told rescue workers that landscapers helped her get a ladder to the rear of the home to get a 3-year-old girl out, but two other children were still inside.
Crews said the 2-year-old girl was rescued from the home by firefighters and was suffering from severe smoke inhalation. She was taken to Civista Medical Center in critical condition.
Firefighters then found the body of the 5-year-old boy in the bedroom, where they believe the fire started. Most of the fire was contained to that room, officials said.
Investigators said there didn't appear to be any working smoke alarms in the home.
They're still investigating a cause.

Missouri lawmakers pass cannabis extract bill
Missouri lawmakers have given final approval to a bill that would allow use of a cannabis extract by people whose epilepsy isn't relieved by other treatments.
On Thursday, the Senate passed the bill 32-0. House members later approved it 136-12, which sends the legislation to Gov. Jay Nixon.
The bill would allow use of "hemp extract" containing little of the substance that makes marijuana users feel high and greater amounts of a chemical called cannabidiol, or CBD.
Senators approved the measure after Sen. Eric Schmitt gave an impassioned speech about his son, who has epilepsy. Schmitt says he doesn't know if CBD oil will work but that a lot of families are willing to try. Schmitt's family watched the debate from the Senate chamber.

March to the Match Podcast: Who's making USMNT World Cup roster? Our report from camp
Wednesday, May 21 Postcard From CampOne week down at USMNT camp – are we any closer to knowing what Jurgen Klinsmann's thinking? The guys give their observations from Stanford, including their thoughts on the (again) growing German influence, the battle at right back and what lineup suits this team best. Plus, is the Armchair Analyst a Dom Dwyer hater? Matt keeps doubting, and the Sporting KC hit man keeps answering right back. |

Manchego Stuffed Dates
Dates are widely used in the Spanish kitchen, especially in the South. Probably, this is the influence of the Arabic kitchen. This is why dates stuffed with cheese are considered as traditional cuisine. Any type of cheese can be used: fresh (a kind of creamy cheesy), semi-cured, cured, goat cheesy, sheep milk cheesy, mixed type. |

Breckenridge, CO 80424
While there are live-music venues in downtown Breckenridge, Cecilia's Martini Bar, which opened in 1995, pretty much has the local dance-club market covered. It's also one of the area's only martini bars, serving a wide assortment of martinis as well as single-malt Scotch and cognac. DJs spin an eclectic mix of music most nights at Cecilia's, which is divided into three different areas, making it one of the more lively venues in Breckenridge, as well.

Are Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder on Good Terms? Stars Exchange Supportive Tweets
Ian Somerhalder doesn't seem too torn up over the news that his Vampire Diaries co-star and ex-girlfriend of three years, Nina Dobrev, is now dating Dancing With the Stars cutie Derek Hough. In fact, these two exes are downright supportive of each other. The two stars showed a mutual respect for each other during a Twitter exchange after Ian was awarded a Conde Nast Traveler Visionary award for his efforts in encouraging teens to embrace environmentalism. "I'm crazy stupid proud to be in this. Thank you to all for this honor and I look forward to collaborating with all I met last night. Such a monumental moment in my life," Ian wrote alongside an Instagram photo of himself holding the award. After personally thanking a few select individuals, Ian wrote, "The world is a better place because you are in it... Thanks for snapping this shot- photo credit @ninadobrev from set of the Vampire Diaries Love Ian." To express her encouragement in ways other than snapping an Instagram pic of her co-star, Nina tweeted, "@CondeNastTraveler Recognizes you for your relentless outreach + using it to change the world as you have + will continue to do. MAJOR Congrats!"
But the tweets of mutual admiration don't end there!
"Awwww!" Ian wrote back. "Thank you NINA-thank you for the love & support. Truly. Xo Ian."
We're glad to see that these two ex-lovebirds are still on great terms, even with the news of Nina's blossoming relationship with Derek.
Do you think these two exes should remain close friends? Let us know in the comments below.

Penn State Can Rebound From Scandal – Just as Dallas Recovered from JFK Tragedy Updated: 12/27/2011 - A trip to the TicketCity Bowl will help the wounded psyche of the Penn State football faithful, and a number one ranking in both major polls is providing respite for fans of Syracuse basketball.
Future May Be Now for Youngest Football Wildcats Posted: 12/05/2011 - The 2011 Kentucky football season ended in a way that nobody – NOBODY – saw coming, especially before the season began, when your faithful correspondent included this missive within his predictions:
Joker, Staff Might Need a Football Lesson from The Marx Brothers Posted: 10/24/2011 - A note to suffering Big Blue football fans – When in doubt, turn to The Marx Brothers.
Honeymoon Cut Short, Joker Needs to Revitalize Big Blue Nation Posted: 08/11/2011 - It's inaccurate to say the honeymoon is over for Joker Phillips. That's because he never had one.
Former Wildcat Rex Chapman Among 7 Set for Hall of Fame Posted: 06/02/2011 - It's a term thrown around almost too cavalierly these days: "Future Hall of Famer."
UK Best of Final Four Teams, with No Trophy to Show For It Updated: 04/05/2011 - I said it prior to Saturday and I'll say it again: Kentucky is the best team of the Final Four. It's even more apparent after watching whatever it was that passed for basketball Monday night, in the championship game between Connecticut and Butler at Reliant Arena in Houston.
UK's Veterans Never Gave Up on Themselves Posted: 03/29/2011 - Admit it. You wanted DeAndre Liggins gone. On that November, 2008 night in Las Vegas, when he refused Billy Gillispie's order to check into the Kansas State game, choosing instead to sit on the bench and pout, you threw up your hands in exasperation and demanded that the freshman be kicked off the team.
UK's Spot in NCAA Tournament Not as Unfair as It May Appear Posted: 03/14/2011 - Everybody take a breath. You howled over Kentucky's NCAA tournament draw the moment it flashed across the screen, and likely you've been thrashing about ever since. The conspiracy theorists are at full throttle and the Big Blue Nation is tweeting, posting, messaging and bashing.
NCAA Tournament Can Lead to NBA Riches Posted: 02/28/2011 - Watching from afar as the Knicks, Nuggets and, to a lesser extent, the Timberwolves conducted their recent NBA trade business, I couldn't help but think of the day Chauncey Billups got paid. I was there to see it.
UK Fans Learning: Be Careful What You Wish For Updated: 02/15/2011 - Once again, the fans have spoken. And, once again, they aren't exactly sure of what they want.
Calipari Says Wildcats Need Veterans to Act as Though They've Been Starters All Along Updated: 01/31/2011 - Their philosophies could be as diverse as snowflakes, but coaches have so many things in common, including one trait that drives all the great ones: Their desire exceeds their grasp.
Cutler, Rodgers Both Suffer Knee-Jerk Slings of Social Media Posted: 01/24/2011 - It was going to be either Aaron Rodgers or Jay Cutler in the Super Bowl. Only one quarterback would be packing for Arlington; the other would be heading off to the suburb where 30 of 32 NFL teams currently reside: Waiting Until Next Year.
Wildcats Better Than Last Year's Team? Stop… Updated: 01/20/2011 - Can we stop now? Can we stop with the comparisons to last year's team? And the laughable notion that this year's Kentucky team is better? If a second straight road loss, to an Alabama team that lost to St. Peter's, isn't evidence enough to the contrary, what is?
Nobody Knows Oregon's Pain, But the Wildcats Came Close Updated: 01/11/2011 - No college football team can know the pain and misery suffered last night by the Oregon Ducks.
DeQuin Evans' Story Straight Out of Compton – and Hollywood Posted: 12/09/2010 - DeQuin Evans, then a grocery bagger in Compton, California, went to the movies. The film? "The Gridiron Gang," starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as a probation officer at Camp Kilpatrick, a juvenile detention center in Malibu.
Cats Maddeningly Close to Where They Wanted To Be Updated: 11/02/2010 - I stand by my pre-season prediction that this year's Kentucky football team will win eight regular-season games – even though it's impossible.
Get to Know Your Football Wildcats – This Saturday Updated: 09/21/2010 - Whether you're sitting in your recliner at home, chowing down on wings at your favorite establishment, or watching in sweaty Gainesville, it's a pretty good bet we'll know more about the football Wildcats by the end of the night than we do right now.
Swing Games, Once Again, Will Dictate Fortunes of Football Cats Posted: 09/03/2010 - In 2009 the football Wildcats finally pulled off the kind of victories their fans have been waiting to see since, well, since the '70s in one case and the '60s in another.
From the Sidelines - UK Football Personnel Posted: 08/25/2010 - There may be just as many questions surrounding the 2010 season opener at Papa John's Cardinal Stadium as there are fans sitting in a stadium expanded by about half as many seats.
From the Sidelines Posted: 07/31/2010 - The Southeastern Conference would seem to be, once again, an inverted Weeble – lots of power at the top, winnowing into a pool of teams that won't compete for anything beyond the mid-level bowl games.

Glad you made it to the "C1" page. I hope you have time to listen to all the great oldies tunes from artists: Freddie "Boom Boom" Cannon and the Carpenters to name a few of the oldies' artists. All the oldies' music included here on this website are in the MIDI format. You really should consider downloading Cresendo when listening to all MIDIs as Cresendo in my opinion, provides the highest sound quality when listening to MIDIs. AND LASTLY, ENJOY ALL THE CLASSIC OLDIES!!! :) |

Thanks For Visiting And Be Sure To Tell All Your Friends. Remember that this site is based on the oldies played in Philly. Philadelphia is not only the birthplace of the "Soft Pretzel" and the "Cheesesteak", but also the birthplace of Rock 'N Roll. We who live in the Philly area also boast the countries' most popular "Oldies Station" in WOGL 98.1FM. WOGL is also one of the original pioneer radio stations in the US. |

Pat Widolff, professor of movement and sport sciences, commented that the track does not just look bad but poses an injury risk to all people using the track. Once the original First Street, it is now covered by the southwestern part of the track in Ortmayer Stadium. It has acquired drainage problems making it unusable for track events. Additionally the installation of the new surface on the track seven years ago has begun to bubble because it did not adhere properly. / photo by Rafael Anguiano
