With Scary Movie 3, the assignment of directing has been passed from Keenen Ivory Wayans to Airplane!'s David Zucker, which is a big step forward right there. (Zucker isn't much of a director, either, but at least he has ideas on how to shape a scene, and is actually pretty adept at making his film parodies look like the films they're parodying.) Plus, any time Zucker and company are satirizing the outrageous pomposity of M. Night Shymalan, whose Signs receives – and deserves – particularly harsh treatment here, Scary Movie 3 is everything you want a movie spoof to be: smart, funny, and more than a little mean. (And heartening – until now, I thought I was the only one who detested Shymalan's "Hitchcockian" appearance as the vet who accidentally kills Mel Gibson's wife in Signs.) The wide-eyed, appealing Anna Faris returns as the lead, ably satirizing Naomi Watts' reporter from The Ring, and comic actors such as Charlie Sheen, Jeremy Piven, Queen Latifah, Camryn Manheim, and legendary spoofster Leslie Nielsen all score some laughs. So why is Scary Movie 3 still so disappointing?

This might sound like an overstatement, but with A Mighty Wind, writer-director Christopher Guest, aided immeasurably by regular co-scenarist Eugene Levy and his cast of brilliant improv artists, has secured his place as the most distinctive voice in American film comedy since the '70s heyday of Mel Brooks and Woody Allen. (And judging by the applause that greeted the film's finale at the screening I attended, I'm not alone in thinking this.)

More than 28,000 ratings and comments are overwhelmingly positive
PORTLAND, Ore., Sept. 3 /PRNewswire/ -- An overwhelming majority of Regence members would recommend their doctor to others, according to a popular online survey on the company's member Web site -- myRegence.com. A "Member Feedback" feature on the site allows Regence members to post feedback on their experiences with individual providers, including physicians, dentists, other health care professionals and facilities.
"Our own research and national studies show that patients want to hear from other patients," said David Clark, Senior Vice President of Health Care Services for Regence. "We created the feedback feature so members can share experiences and compare notes. That kind of information helps our members make better decisions about their health care."
According to Clark, 89 percent of those leaving feedback would recommend their provider to someone else. Those statistics come from more than 28,000 reviews posted on the Web site since October 2006.
Initially, the feedback feature allowed members to rate providers on a numeric scale. Since December 2007, members have also been able to leave comments.
"The majority of comments are overwhelmingly positive," said Clark. "Members are reporting very good experiences. That underscores the high caliber of physicians in our networks. When concerns are raised, it is usually about issues such as waiting time, listening skills, billing issues or bedside manner, issues that most physicians are already working to address."
The Member Feedback feature available to Regence members is the first of its kind in the Pacific Northwest/Intermountain region. Similar tools have been offered in other parts of the country, but the response has generally been less enthusiastic.
The feedback tool also lets providers review comments and reply to
them. This feature was added after discussions with providers, to help

Typhoon 'Pablo': 'Grim reality check' on natural disasters
The effects of Typhoon "Pablo" in Mindanao revealed to the nation what can happen when Nature's wrath is coupled with unabated extraction of natural resources. Hundreds of people were killed after flash floods, accompanied by fallen trees and boulders, swamped entire communities in Compostela Valley. Hundreds of others remain missing.
Pablo is a grim reality check. The carnage it wrought revealed the government's inability to institute effective disaster preparedness and response systems in grassroots communities. It likewise exposed its failure to regulate the extraction of natural resources, such as timber, and to rehabilitate logged-over forests.
The areas devastated by Pablo are geographically and ecologically connected to places where massive logging operations have been taking place for decades. Data from the Department of Environment and Natural Resources show that deforestation has worsened since 2006 due to the increasing incidence of unemployment and poverty. Many of the illegal logging activities occurred in Surigao del Sur, Agusan del Sur and Agusan del Norte, in areas covered by expired timber concession permits.
The Agusan River Basin, the country's third largest river basin, is "under siege." The deteriorating quality of Agusan River Systems—manifested in the loss of biodiversity and degraded natural resources—points to rampant logging, mining and agroplantation activities in forest areas.
The flash floods in Compostela Valley were not an isolated event disconnected from the destruction of its neighboring environment. For instance, Agusan del Sur's river tributaries directly drain into the valley which had most of the fatalities.
In 2011, Mindanao suffered a devastating loss when Typhoon "Sendong" triggered massive flash floods in the cities of Cagayan de Oro and Iligan, killing more than a thousand people.
Subsequent investigations revealed that the disaster was brought about by the combined effects of disaster unpreparedness, logging and the conversion of forest lands into plantations for agricultural export.
The nation's experience with Sendong should have taught the Aquino administration that more needs to be done in order to prevent more loss of lives during extreme weather events. Up to now, environmental and social justice have not yet been given to Sendong's victims. Up to now, the government has yet to institute far- and deep-reaching reforms vis-a-vis disaster preparedness, land use planning, environmental protection, protection of natural resources, and rehabilitation of vulnerable and degraded lands.
Kalikasan party-list calls for comprehensive scientific investigation into the various factors that led to the massive loss of lives during Pablo, taking into account the resource-extractive activities that have significant impacts on the forest cover of Agusan. It is high time to identify and assess the different factors and problems that contribute to these repeated disasters.

Belichick's brand of coaching is nothing new
Bill Belichick is ruthless, demanding and divisive -- no wonder he ticks off everyone outside of New England. But the man on the Pats' sideline is carrying on a star-spangled tradition that stretches back more than 100 years.
Why is Bill Belichick such a complete jerk?
Unless you live in New England, you may have pondered this question in 2007.
It's not just the piling up of wins before ever-larger audiences that engenders so much loathing. It's the way he wins. It's Spygate. It's those surly postgame handshakes. The running up of scores. The jones for retribution against all perceived enemies. And that face, that stone face, the one that greets the cameras before and after every ...

Westchester Q & A: Prof. Giles Scofield;Hardest Choices of the Health Care Crisis
By DONNA GREENE
Published: February 18, 1996
AS Prof. Giles Scofield of Pace Law School in White Plains sees it, "The savings and loan scandal will look like a day at Disneyland compared to today's health care crisis."
Professor Scofield, a lawyer, is director of the school's Health Law and Policy Program. He recognizes that if America is to provide universal access to health care, then all services cannot be provided to all people. Finding the right balance, he concedes, is not easy.
Before coming to Pace, Professor Scofield spent a year on a fellowship at the Cleveland Clinic and two years at Craig Hospital, near Denver, learning first hand about medicine and the law. Here are excerpts from a recent conversation with him:
Q. What did you mean by saying that the savings and loan scandal will look like a day at Disneyland compared with today's health care crisis?
A. What we seem to have decided to do, or what somebody has decided we should do, is to sort of deregulate health care, to let the free market decide who is going to get what and at what price. I think that what is going to happen over time is that the health care system will increasingly be good for people who are wealthy and healthy and not for people who are neither wealthy nor healthy. What the insurance industry will do over time is to try to reduce the number of services available to people who are truly needy or not provide services to them at all.
At the same time -- and perhaps this has changed a little bit over the last month -- there seems to be an effort to reduce Medicare and Medicaid. Those have long been regarded as the safety nets. Once the private market decides that it can only deliver health care to a limited number of people and once the safety net is either gone or significantly reduced, you will have a lot of people without access to care. There is nothing to suggest that the number of people without health insurance will decrease. You don't see managed care saying, "We'd like to provide health to everyone."
The difference between this and the savings and loan crisis was, At that time people were at risk of losing their savings. With the next health care crisis, people will lose their lives. There is no other way to put it.
Q. Who's making all the money in the health care industry?
A. I don't know the answer to that, but a lot of these managed care entities are on the New York Stock Exchange, so their primary obligation is to the shareholders, not the patients. The not-for-profits are limited in what they are allowed to do to remain profitable. That's why the not-for-profit sector suffers. The insurance industry didn't get in this to lose money. And the way to make money is to reduce your risk, and the way to reduce your risk is to limit the benefits that will be provided or reduce the types of people benefits will be provided to. There is a tendency to bash the insurance industry, but if this is what we've asked them to do, we can't bash them.
Q. With limited resources to spend on health care, how do we balance the health needs of the very old with that of a younger person?
A. Carefully. What people are really looking for is either a risk-free solution or a cost-free solution, but the reality is that we simply have to start making decisions. Because if we don't make them, they simply get made for us.
From my perspective, while doing something about limiting costs is clearly an important issue, it pales in comparison to the question of whether we are willing to provide access to care for everyone. The thing is, We can decide to set limits for costs, but that is not going to do anything to improve access to care. As a matter of fact, what we're seeing now is a rise in the number of individuals who are without access to care. So we solve one problem at the expense of making another one considerably worse.
We've lived with the myth that money is no object, and that has always been an illusion. We made a very different decision than other countries did. We decided that universal access to health care is not the important issue, that the prolongation of life was. So we spend a lot of time trying to cure death, and there is no cure for death, and we don't spend nearly enough doing things to improve the quality of life that people have in the United States.
Q. Where does that lead you to? Believing that when people are of a certain age and do not have what is considered by society to be "quality of life," we shouldn't be giving them the most sophisticated and expensive treatments?
A. I'm saying we can't prolong everyone's life forever or act as if we can. And we act as if we can. That's simply foolishness on our part. The problem that we have is that we're afraid of facing up to that issue and unwilling to do something about access to care. If we were to address the access-to-care issue, if we were to say that everyone is entitled to universal health care -- regardless of their ability to pay -- we would be forced to make those other decisions. Because once you decide to open the door to everyone, it's clear that not everyone can get everything.

|If you're going to have Robert Parker or Stephen Tanzer over for dinner, selecting a wine they've rated highly will be a nice choice. However, when you're buying wines for yourself, we'd love to see you find wines that match up your unique palate and pocketbook. We have a large staff of friendly and knowledgeable wine professionals that taste hundreds of wines each week. They can put you in touch with bottles that you are likely to love, often at a much lower cost than the highly-rated gems that often see a run-up in price and frequent availability issues. Like any great group of opinionated professionals, our staff has varied tastes themselves. Often our customers will find a particular staff member with a style that corresponds to their own. That concept works extremely well in our retail stores, and this section is our effort to bring you the same online. Don't get us wrong, we love the highly rated wines from the press and will continue to offer them, but we think you're missing out if you're not augmenting those selections with picks from our excellent staff. Here are their favorites. (Click on a name to see their other selections - or to drop them a line.) Cheers!
2009 Le Bourdieu, Médoc
By: Clyde Beffa Jr. | Review Date: 6/3/2015 | Send Email
Outstanding value from the GREAT vintage 2009. Plenty of sweetness for enjoying now, but also tannic backbone insures long ageing.
Drink from 2015 to 2015
Price: $21.99
2013 E. Guigal Côtes du Rhône Blanc
By: Keith Mabry | Review Date: 6/3/2015 | Send Email
Guigal is still the benchmark producer in the Rhone Valley and one of the greatest testiments to there success is not in the single parcel Cote Roties or Hermitage wines they produce, it's here at the entry level with their delicious Cotes du Rhone wines. The CDR Blanc is a blend of 65% Viognier, 15% Roussanne, 10% Marsanne, 8% Clairette and 2% Bourboulenc. It is fresh and clean with notes of white flowers, apricots and white peaches. Try it with grilled salmon and a mango chutney. Perfect for warm weather sipping.
Price: $12.99
2012 Caymus "Special Selection" Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
By: Christie Brunick | Review Date: 6/3/2015 | Send Email
This vintage of Caymus Special Select is just as special as ever. The 2012 is massive and mouth-coating. If you love the over-the-top style Caymus has become famous for then this year's is going to make your eyes roll back and drool at first sip!
Price: $169.99
2013 Ametza Txakolina de Alava
By: Joe Manekin | Review Date: 6/3/2015 | Send Email
A blend of Petite Manseng and Izarato (Petite Courbu), this is a delicious txakoli! In the typical Alava (also known as Arabako Txakolina) style, the wine is less fizzy and a wee bit higher in alcohol than the stuff from the vineyards closer to San Sebastian, in Getariako Txakolina. Tangy and appley, with just a hint of creaminess and very subtle oxidative notes, this is a great apertive for fans of high acid whites, or a terrific white to pair with Basque style fish dishes - grilled sole, the famous rodaballo (turbot), merluza (hake), all with some olive oil, garlic and parsley, of course!
Price: $18.99
2013 Doural Vinho Regional Duriense
By: Joe Manekin | Review Date: 6/3/2015 | Send Email
A balanced, discreet nose of red plums and cherries leads to a lovely, juicy palate of bright cherries. This is so easy to drink and a wonderful introduction not only to the Douro, but to the inherent value in a well made Portuguese red. Touriga Franca, Tinta Roriz, Tinta Barroca. 12.5% ABV.
Price: $8.99

There are flashy packaged, everyone has to have one, fad of the moment Champagnes - and there are classic stunningly beautiful Champagnes that prove to all who taste them why Champagne is a true luxury worth treating yourself from time to time. The 2002 Dom Ruinart Rose is a great example of the latter. A true special occasion Grand Cru that you deserve to try at least once in life.
Price: $299.00
2013 Claiborne & Churchill Central Coast Pinot Gris
Here is a rich and succulent approach to Pinot Gris. 100% barrel fermented in neutral oak and aged on the lees, the wine takes on an almost resin character mixed with faint spiced-honey, white nectarine and lemon notes. The body is silky and creamy with a crisp acidity in the background that gives the wine luxurious depth and a mouth-watering finish. This would make the perfect antidote for any rich seafood-based dishes.
Price: $19.99
2013 Claiborne & Churchill Central Coast Gewürztraminer
True to its varietal, this Gerwurztraminer offers a tropical and floral perfume reminiscent of lychee, guava and grapefruit. This wine is as much a pleasure to smell as it is to drink. On the mid-palate the sweetness of fruit mixes with just the right acidity to balance out this full-bodied white. This would pair perfectly with variety of cuisine. Try it with Middle Eastern, Moroccan or Asian dishes that have nuts, dried fruits and roasted meats.
Price: $21.99
2013 Claiborne & Churchill Central Coast Riesling
Made from a hand-harvested blend of Monterey County and Edna Valley fruit, the wine is whole cluster pressed, and then partially fermented in cold tank and neutral French oak barrels. On the palate, the Riesling resonates with an aromatic blend of lime, honeycomb and stone fruit with a jolt of acid that awakens the senses. This is a food-perfect wine that is full-bodied with excellent texture and a rich, velvety mouthfeel. Try serving with Dungeness crab for a stellar pairing.
Price: $19.99
2013 Claiborne & Churchill Edna Valley Pinot Noir
Super Value Alert: This is a fine example of the quality Pinot Noir that encapsulates this region. Sourced from five different clones in two different vineyards in the Edna Valley where the grapes are kept cool by breezes from the Pacific Ocean and morning fog, the result is a traditional Burgundian-style Pinot Noir with a good dose of Central Coast afternoon sun. The nose is rich with cherry cola and cinnamon while the mid-palate bursts with a pop of dark red fruit layers of oak and spice. The finish is pretty, elegant and sustained with a soft tannic grip.
Price: $24.99
2013 Claiborne & Churchill Central Coast Dry Muscat
Here's an excellent wine to put into your spring/summer repertoire. The Orange Muscat grapes are sourced from Santa Barbara County and fermented in 100% neutral French oak to capture its intoxicating floral and Indian spice aromas. This light straw colored wine has a stimulating tang, with layers of diverse flavors of preserved citrus, flowers and stone fruit, and a long lasting dry finish. This would be excellent served as an aperitif or simply drink alone for a refreshing sipper.
Price: $24.99
2014 Domaine Les Pins Bourgueil Rosé
Yet another must-have in the fridge at all times, says the boss, aka, my wife. Super quaffable and party-friendly. This is the perfect example of a summertime wine. So far, my favorite pairing has to be grilled sausages and mixed grilled vegetables.
Price: $10.99
2013 Kenneth Volk "Jaybird-Unoaked" Santa Maria Valley Chardonnay
By: Andrew Whiteley | Review Date: 6/2/2015 | Send Email
The quality-to-price ratio on this wine is huge. If you are looking for an un-oaked Chardonnay, look no further. This is a fruit-driven Chard with tons of crisp acidity and no fat at all. It really showcases the true texture of the grape, not relying on oak to beef it up. Lean, strong, and beautiful, and all for 16 bucks!
Price: $15.99
2012 Palmina Santa Barbara County Barbera
This wine took less than two seconds to steal my heart. I personally enjoy having some brett (short for Brettanomyces, a form of yeast that also commonly found in traditional Belgian ales and actually gives Lambic and Gueuze its characteristic and flavor) in my glass giving off that masculine barnyard like, light sweat, leathery note. Then the wine follows up with round and warm spices, a touch of floral and ripe cherry flavors. Yum!
Price: $24.99
2009 Vignalta 'Gemola' Merlot/Cabernet Franc
Wow, the intensity on this wine was off the charts! This bottle reminds me of some of the best Right Bank Bordeaux out there. I would NOT hesitate to put this bottle in front of serious Bordeaux lovers, and I am confident it will measure up. The Merlot shows off classic characteristics of black plum, menthol and other herbal notes. Generous and expressive, it explodes out of the glass immediately. The Cabernet Franc rounds out the mid-palate and give it a touch of elegance and violet, keeping the wine polished and structured. Finish with rich cocoa, indicating some form of new oak very well-integrated and not over the top. The wine is still a baby, give it plenty of time in the decanter or let it rest in your cellar for 5 to 10 more years if you have the patience!
Price: $36.99
2010 Bellaria Brunello di Montalcino
Man, the 2010 Brunelli are really as legendary as everyone's been saying. There are literally no bad wines, and the Bellaria is no exception. On the nose this wine shows a warmer, more stew-like fruit characteristic. It's very pleasant and familiar, like a freshly baked fruit cake sitting on grandma's window sill. Then a very slight hint of allspice followed by firm, lasting tannin and long finish. No doubt it will shine even brighter with few more years in the cellar. Cheers!
Price: $44.99
2012 Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir Marlborough
This dark, spicy Pinot shows the power that Marlborough is capable of. This rich, solid wine is a great example of why Cloudy Bay is so famous. It was fantastic with lamb!
Price: $38.99
2014 Big Flower (Botanica) Petit Verdot Rosé
What a cool rose! Seriously, this wine is too cool for school. Made by the lady who brought you Botanica (50 year old vines, dry-farmed Chenin Blanc from South Africa anyone?). Originally from California, Ginny Povall planted vines and grows flowers around her estate in Devon Valley. The rosé is sourced from her tiny plot of Petit Verdot around the estate. Only 200 cases were produced, and we are lucky enough to be the only merchant in the U.S. to carry a portion of this gem. It's super floral, with hints of chrysanthemum and Oolong tea leaf followed by a very clean finish. I think of dim sum with this wine, it's versatile enough to handle the endless flavor combination of dim sum yet elegant enough not to overpower the dishes. Writing this is making me crave some Fung zao (fried steamed chicken feet) with a bottle of big flower....

2012 Fattoria Petrolo Torrione Toscana
By: Mike Parres | Review Date: 6/2/2015 | Send Email
It is just the kind of wine you want when you sit down with a little bread and cheese or when you open something to drink while cooking dinner. Rich and complex, Sangiovese, Merlot & Cabernet Sauvignon. Super Tuscan & Super Price !

2013 Claude Branger "Les Fils de Gras Mouton" Muscadet Sèvre et Maine sur Lie
Fantastic fantastic fantastic wine for $12.99! Not only is this a really good wine but the people behind it are just as fantastic. Crispy bright white fruits with loads of juicy mineral and ripe acidity to finish. Absolutely fantastic with crab cakes... trust me, my belly knows!
Price: $12.99
2014 Domaine Cherrier Père & Fils Sancerre
A foundation and classic style of Sancerre. This is all about the simple purity of fruit. With that along comes a very accessible, easy but well built everyday style of wine. One of my go to wines, for sure.
Price: $16.99
2014 Domaine des Côtes Blanches Sancerre Rosé
If you liked the 2013 version of this you're going to love the 2014. Super fresh and bright with a nice subtle spice and juicy red fruit finish.
Price: $16.99
2014 Pichon-Lalande, Pauillac
Lots of lovely, exotic, grapey fruit; elegant and precise. Tasty, with a long finish. Pichon-Lalande is back in a big way after complete reconstruction of the vinification facility and the way the fruit is handled. Two stars. **

A very polished nose of berries, currants and graphite although a bit subdued at its very young age. The palate is quite profound with cocoa, blackberries, cherries, blackcurrants and pencil lead. Very fine tannins and perfect acidity. All of this making it an exquisite wine.

2014 Domaine Les Pins Bourgueil Rosé
By: Jacques Moreira | Review Date: 6/2/2015 | Send Email
A great example of what I call the "other" French rosé style. Most people are familiar with the Provençal style, but more people need to try the rosés from the north! The Loire Valley, better known for its whites, offers delightful rosés. The les Pins, made from Cabernet Franc grapes, has beautiful and delicate floral aromatics. On the palate we have the red grapefruit, spices, dry rose petals with a juicy acidity, and dry finish. This wine would be fantastic with any summery/outdoor dishes, seafood pasta, salads, and even light meats. Explore!

2010 Bellaria Brunello di Montalcino
By: Greg St. Clair | Review Date: 6/2/2015 | Send Email
The nose on this wine is sweet and savory full of spiced plum, wild herbs and a hint of the Tuscan dust. In the mouth the wine is expansive and seemingly fills every corner with a luxurious and full body. The flavors are once again the plum but less spice and more wildness this time, the savory component seems to remain on the palate for a longer time than the rich fruit. The finish is long, flavorful and so well balanced the tannins seem almost not to be there, but they are, just in complete harmony. So approachable now it's hard to resist drinking but it will grow in stature with a few more years.
Drink from 2015 to 2015

2003 Krug Brut Champagne
I just tasted this fabulous Champagne with Olivier Krug when he stopped by K&L with some bottles. It is composed of 46% Pinot Noir, 29% Chardonnay and 25% Meunier and entirely barrel fermented. This wine is starting to flesh out with time, and has a spectacular full body, great texture, open knit toasty aromas and flavors and impressive power. This is a perfect partner to charcuterie, and given the history of the house, should age for decades.
Price: $229.00
Billecart-Salmon Brut "Sous Bois" Champagne
The current batch of the Sous Bois from Billecart Salmon is based on the spectacular 2008 vintage, and the combination of richness from the all barrel vinification and the extraordinary acidity of the vintage makes for one of the most impressive bottles in their line. If you haven't tried this newest addition to the great line from Billecart, don't miss out, the 2008 based wine is very special!

2010 Belpoggio Brunello di Montalcino
By: Mike Parres | Review Date: 6/2/2015 | Send Email
This wine is 100% Sangiovese and a small marvel of class and power, especially when the vintage is taken into account. There is wonderful richness of fruit, which melds beautifully with the aristocratic oak, giving spicy scents which come through on the palate, too, right to this final licorice note. Dark-colored ruby with concentrated aromas of blackberries, dark cocoa powder and stony minerals. Full-bodied, with big dusty tannins; needs some air time.
Price: $44.99
1990 Ruinart "Dom Ruinart" Brut Rosé Champagne Magnum 1.5L

2005 Taittinger "Comtes de Champagne" Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne
The Comtes De Champagne is a benchmark blanc de blancs for a reason. Taittinger uses the best Grand Cru Chardonnay that they can get to make a small amount of the most decadent and age-worthy Champagne available. The 2005 is open knit and incredibly delicious now with plenty of toasty brioche and energetic citrus. It should also last quite a long time!

California Chardonnay fans watch out! This second label Chard from Lancaster is going to take over by storm! This screaming deal comes from vineyards with all estate fruit that is better quality than some of the biggest Cali Chard producers in the business. If you love Rombauer, Cakebread, or Ramey and don't want to be in the well over $30 range than try the Roth Chard for well under $20! You will find your new everyday wine!

2007 Terre da Vino "Essenze" Barolo
By: Greg St. Clair | Review Date: 6/2/2015 | Send Email
The lushness of the 2007 vintage is readily apparent in this delicious, balanced and eminently drinkable Barolo. Classic flavors of tar and rose aromatics lie deep in the center of this wine surrounded by a veil of tannin that gives one the "classic" Barolo feel yet coupled with this vintage remains in balance and adds definition to the wine. While the wine is really drinkable it still is Barolo at heart and will be able to age well for another decade. Drinking so well now it's hard to resist!

Swoon-worthy wine alert! Here is an absolutely delectable champagne that holds the perfect marriage of power and elegance. Sourced from Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims terroirs in a stellar 2002 vintage, this champagne glistens with the color of pink copper and exudes layered aromas of fresh pastry, spice and roses. On the mouth flavors of cherry and orange blossom shine through to a glowing and a "savor the moment" kind of finish.

2014 Turkey Flat Rosé Barossa Valley South Australia
By: Angie An | Review Date: 6/1/2015 | Send Email
Yes! It's finally that time of the year again! Rosé season and upon us once again and Turkey Flat is one of the new rosés you won't want to miss year this. 93% Grenache, 4% Shiraz, 2% Cabernet and 1% Dolcetto. Very juicy fruity, easy on the palate a round, rich texture. When a winery is named "Turkey Flat" you have to be a bit curious--turns out, when the vineyard was first planted in 1847 there used to be flocks of native bush turkey also known as "Australian Bastards" running around. I think Turkey Flat turns out to be a much proper alternative! The wine also has just the slightest hint of sweetness, which would pair awesome with fusion Japanese with some spices, drink up with your spicy tuna maki or dynamite roll!

2010 Bodegas Puelles Crianza Rioja
By: Jim Barr | Review Date: 6/1/2015 | Send Email
Again, one of my favorite Rioja producers and this Crianza is a wine that warrants your attention. Produced from Tempranillo, this silky, lush, fleshy wine shows an opulent nose that is red fruit driven with a hint of spicy anise tones and a touch of cedary oak. This classic new-world style Rioja is bright, fleshy, and creamy on the palate, particularly in the mid-range, with excellent structure and acid backbone, and a lasting, deeply flavored finish. This Gem drinks well now but will continue to improve with another five to seven-plus years of cellaring. Rusty wants me bring home several cases of this Gem for our near-term enjoyment. Don't miss this Rioja! ***** 14.0% ABV *****

I have been absolutely loving this great little bargain Pinot for a while. I am a fan of the whole line of Charriere Burgundies that we carry and this little beauty goes to the top of my list for quality and price. Bright, fresh raspberry and Bing cherry fruit on the nose while the palate is deeper with dark cherries and just a hint of spice. Lively finish that has some acidity. Wonderful stuff!

2012 Sesta di Sopra Rosso di Montalcino
By: Kirk Walker | Review Date: 6/1/2015 | Send Email
Another great release from Sesta di Sopra. This is more than "baby Brunello". It is bright charming with subtlety and surprising depth. I love their Brunello but I drink way more of this, not just because of the pricing, its moderate body and less assertive tannins mean it is more versatile, not just for super rich and hearty meals. It also ages fantastically.

A true Sancerre rosé for 17 bucks! Pale pink in color and bright in both fresh red fruits and acid, this rose is the perfect way to kick off any summer afternoon. It's the natural complement to a lively BBQ, complete with grilled veggies and perhaps some wild caught salmon. Made from 100% Pinot Noir, it has lots of weight and texture (for a rosé) that contribute to a fun and easy finish. Enjoy the warm weather with a glass or two.

Amici Napa Cabernet has been a favorite for quite some time now. The 2010 vintage was fantastic for cabs in the area and it really shows in the bottling. Blackberry, blueberry, cassis, a touch of vanilla and oak spice. Drinking well now and will reward another 10 years in the cellar.

Delicate and elegant, yet full of nuance. At first sight this wine would trick you as a white wine, with an ever so faint tint. The palate expresses lemon zest, tangerine, and nectarine with tons of pretty pith and minerality. The bright acidity to this wine would make it a great companion to seafood!

Partners Weisz, Aronofsky brave film collaboration
By Mike Collett-White
VENICE (Reuters) – Film collaborations between real-life
partners are not always happy affairs, but Rachel Weisz and
Darren Aronofsky say it is 'so far, so good' after making "The
Fountain" together.
Weisz, who won an Oscar for her role in "The Constant
Gardener," plays Izzi in her fiance's new film about a man in
three different eras seeking to save the one he loves.
Australian Hugh Jackman plays the lead in a fantasy film
about love and coming to terms with loss and death.
"I'd be honored if she'd work with me again," U.S. film
maker Aronofsky told a news conference on Monday, when asked if
the fact that he was engaged to the female lead might work
against him.
"Who knows? I've got to call her agent and see if we can
get a deal," he joked.
Director and actor Peter Bogdanovich had an unhappy career
slump when he cast his then partner Cybill Shepherd in films
like the 1975 flop "At Long Last Love."
Director Guy Ritchie was widely derided for film projects
starring his wife Madonna, particularly "Swept Away" in 2002.
Asked about his reaction to filming an intimate scene
between Weisz and Jackman, Aronofsky replied:
"I'm a pervert, so I had no issue with it. I enjoy shooting
sex scenes very much. She's an actress, he's an actor … when
you call 'cut', it's over."
Briton Weisz, who has a young son with Aronofsky, added:
"Actually, Darren was shouting to me: 'Take his trousers off!"'
during a scene in which a clothed Jackman gets into the bath
with her.
Aronofsky has little experience to date of bad reviews,
with his 1998 movie "Pi" and 2000 follow-up "Requiem for a
Dream" widely praised. The Fountain is his first film since
Critics' reaction to his latest movie, however, could be
more mixed after the film was booed by some in the audience
during a press screening in Venice, where it is one of 21 films
in the main festival competition.
The project was delayed for several years after Brad Pitt,
originally cast in the leading role, pulled out, according to
Hollywood trade publications.
Aronofsky used unusual filming techniques to conjure up a
clear "bubble" craft drifting through space in the futuristic
storyline set in the 26th century.
Rather than using only computer-generated images, his
visual effects team enlisted a photographer who shoots
photographs of tiny chemical reactions on a laboratory Petri
"We didn't want anything to be from the inside of a
computer," Aronofsky said, adding that science fiction movies
had become "super-dependent" on special effects. "You don't
know if you're watching a cartoon or live action."
The Fountain is due for release in November in the United

Questions as to the nature of my paranoia aside, right now I have a piece of sticky note covering my webcam on my MacBook Air, which, as you can imagine, doesn't really complement the look and feel. Is there a decent product that people have actually used that they'd recommend to replace such a sticky note or piece of electrical tape over the webcam?
What about c-slide? (http://www.c-slide.com) 1 mm thin and works with all latops and pad devices.
The cool thing is that you can open and close it without having to remove any parts from you laptop. And it's sleek, the only downside is that it is black and might not look very nice on a white MacBook frame.
We're looking for long answers that provide some explanation and context. Don't just give a one-line answer; explain why your answer is right, ideally with citations. Answers that don't include explanations may be removed.
I have a web camera blocker on my MacBook Air. I got it from my boss who got it from here
Besides the usual answer (band-aid, electrical tape, post-it) there are a few commercial products for webcam privacy available. The best, lowest profile, most elegant solution I have found is the webcamerablocker. It is made of a material that doesn't leave residue on the machine and and be used and reused almost forever.
camJAMR Webcam Covers works great. I have them on my laptop, iPad, iPhone, and Xbox Kinect. They pretty much fit anything with a webcam.
C-Slide is too permanent. Requires you to glue a breakable plastic piece to your laptop screen.... Sounds pretty damn sketchy - No thanks!
After giving up on tape and post-its, I opted for the camjamr Covert Pack. They blend in with all my black devices so they are basically unnoticeable until you get up close. The pack comes with 12 reusable webcam covers (somehow they stay stuck, yet can be easily removed by grabbing the tab). You can either buy 1 fragile c-slide, or buy 12 reusable camjamrs(which fit every single device)
My webcam cover decision seemed pretty obvious...
I use the SpiShutter on my MacBook. Works great. Check it out at spishutter.com
Peep shield is a static sticker thus not a great solution for a laptop but work well for phones. Campatch falls off and you will need to buy multiples after you lose your first order. Spishutter is way too expensive. C-SLIDE works best and they have a version for every device. Check them out at http://www.webcamcover.com
I used the new Antispy. Of course its not that sleek than the other ones... more of a fashion statement so I am totaly into it.
Check out the Video here
If you do electrical tape, cut it with a three- (or one-) hole punch. Pretty little circle, looks original. Good for muffling the microphone, too.
I use Peep Shields. They are functional and look great too.

Norway to Say Good-bye to the Big Yellow Book
On Thursday's Q4 and full-year 2011 earnings call, Eniro announced that it will phase out its print Gula Sider (Yellow Pages) directory in Norway, leaving only local directories as a print product choice in the Nordic country with a population of 4 million.
The move is yet another sign that the core Yellow Pages directory is nearing the end of its natural life in some of Europe's more densely populated and digitally advanced markets. In December, European Directories shuttered the print operations of its Gule Sider (Yellow Pages) operation in Denmark and sold its online assets to Eniro.
This move shouldn't come as a huge surprise given the rapid migration of directory revenues from print to digital, particularly in large markets like Stockholm, Oslo and Copenhagen, where declines in usage and revenues have been steep in recent years.
BIA/Kelsey forecasts that print will account for just 40 percent of Nordic revenues in 2011, and barely 20 percent in 2015.
Eniro will continue to publish its local directories product in Norway, called Ditt Distrikt, in 74 smaller communities around Norway. There was no word given on the fate of the Gula Sidorna (Yellow Pages) directory in Sweden, Eniro's largest market.
For the full year 2011, Eniro reported group revenues of SEK4.3 billlion, a decline of nearly 19 percent, though the organic decline was a more manageable 11 percent. Adjusted EBITDA was SEK1.1 billion.
Poland, once one of Eniro's more stable markets, experienced a dramatic 44 percent revenue decline in 2011. Another troubling sign for Eniro was very modest 1 percent organic-only growth in its core Scandinavian markets. However, the company is maintaining its guidance to return to growth in 2012.
BIA/Kelsey will have a more complete rundown of full-year 2011 results in an upcoming Advisory.

West Ham defender Anton Ferdinand believes "nasty" Mathieu Flamini has made the difference at Arsenal this season.
The Hammers defender said after his side's 1-0 defeat against the Gunners on Saturday: "Arsenal look more clinical to me than last year.
"They got that vital first goal from Robin van Persie and they were very good at keeping that advantage.
"Cesc Fabregas is already looking great this season but Mathieu Flamini has given them that nasty look that perhaps they lacked. Every top team needs one of those battling type players in midfield who can really tackle."

Real Madrid forward and Portugal captain Cristiano Ronaldo last night won Uefa's Best Player in Europe Award (given to the best player of the previous season playing for a club in Europe) to pip Bayern Munich pair Manuel Neuer and Arjen Robben. The former 29-year-old Manchester United star netted a record 17 goals to help Real Madrid lift the Champions League last season.
Thanking his team-mates for their contribution, he said, "I'm really happy, so I must say thanks to my team-mates because without the team, individual awards would not be possible."
#UEFAbestplayer of Europe. What a joy to win this trophy that I want to share with all of you. Thank you. pic.twitter.com/HYbr9lEg70
— Cristiano Ronaldo (@Cristiano) August 28, 2014
Ronaldo bagged the coveted trophy ahead of Neuer and Robben after winning votes from a panel constituted by journalists. As per UEFA regulations, the award is given after considering the show put up in the previous season. The players are judged on the basis of their performances in all domestic and international competitions, club and national levels, throughout the entire season.
Past winners
Year of winning the award by Players
|1. Lionel Messi (2010-11)
|2. Andres Iniesta (2011-12)
|3. Franck Ribery (2012-13)
|Bayern Munich
Goalkeeper Neuer, 28, helped Die Mannschaft (the German team) lift the FIFA World Cup 2014. The keeper put up a heroic performance and pulled off some great saves enroute to his team's world cup-winning performance.
Bayern and Dutch wingman Robben, scored 21 goals for Bayern and three for the Netherlands on their way to the semi-final in Brazil.
The stylish Madrid man scored a hat-trick to fire Portugal through the play-off opponents against Sweden to reach the FIFA World Cup 2014, but failed to inspire his team. Portugal were a damp squib in the 2014 edition as they were outshone only to be eliminated in the group stage.
The Portugese international's club performance was impressive to bag the trophy ahead of the Bayern Munich duo.
The ex-Manchester United winger scored 51 goals as Real Madrid were crowned European champions (UEFA Champions League) for a record 10th time to complete 'La Decima'. Carlo Ancelotti's men also won the Spanish Copa del Rey but finished a disappointing third in the La Liga.
The remaining seven players before the list was brought down to three nominees comprised of :
- Thomas Muller (Bayern Munich, Germany)
- Philipp Lahm (Bayern Munich, Germany)
- Lionel Messi (Barcelona, Argentina)
- James Rodriguez (Monaco/Real Madrid, Colombia)
- Luis Suarez (Liverpool/Barcelona, Uruguay)
- Angel Di Maria (Real Madrid/Manchester United, Argentina)
- Diego Costa (Atletico Madrid/Chelsea, Spain)
Ronaldo netted 56 goals and made 15 assists for Real Madrid and Portugal. He told media, "My aim this season was to win more trophies for the team and for Real Madrid to do well overall."

Respond to Review of Le Grenier de Notre Dame
by GUEST
Review: I wasn't sure what to expect when checking this place out. The reviews here at Happy Cow are diverse. Personally, I've had some top quality vegetarian food, and I thought this place was great. The service was really nice and helpful with me...something that is rare in France. If there are servers that are rude, though, then that wouldn't be a draw-back, as 'good' service is a non-French cultural expectation, and one isn't likely to find it much in France anywhere (at least in my experience after living here for 5 years). The banana-chocolate-caramel mouse wasn't good, but the pumpkin soup and main courses we got were great. One also gets a LOT of food. We couldn't finish it all. The prices for a regular plate are between 14-19 euros, depending...and frankly...that is normal for Paris which has a very high cost in restaurants unless one hits a crap cafe. I recommend this place.

Dental Care for Babies Center - Tulsa, OK
WebMD Physician Directory
Tulsa, Oklahoma
Tulsa is the second-largest city in the state of Oklahoma and 45th-largest city in the United States.
Once heavily dependent on the oil industry, economic downturn and subsequent diversification efforts created an economic base in the energy, finance, aviation, telecommunications and technology sectors. The Tulsa Port of Catoosa, at the head of the McClellan-Kerr Arkansas River Navigation System, is the most inland river port in the U.S. with access to international waterways. Two institutions of higher education within the city operate at the NCAA Division I level, Oral Roberts University and the University of Tulsa.

Originally written on Mr. Irrelevant | Last updated 11/17/14
One of my favorite baseball happenings of 2012 occurred yesterday, when John Lannan returned from minor-league exile to stop the Nats' two-game skid and extend their NL East lead to 2.5 games. It was a big game, as far as July goes, both for the team and the man, who was demoted this spring in favor of Ross Detwiler and Chien-Ming Wang after being the rotation's bedrock through four very long seasons. Though this was just a spot start, it foretells what's bound to happen in September, when Stephen Strasburg hits his fast-approaching innings limit and a new starter is needed. If/when that occurs, it doesn't necessarily mean that Lannan replaces Strasburg in the rotation; it means Gio Gonzalez replaces Stras, Jordan Zimmermann replaces Gio, Edwin Jackson replaces ZNN, Detwiler replaces Jackson and, finally, Lannan replaces Detwiler. But really, what we're talking about is Strasburg leaving and Lannan entering a pennant race. Looking at what that means, you have to look at Lannan's bo...

Magic & Co. reportedly want Orel Hershiser back in Dodger blue
NOV 22, 2013 4:02a ET
Since acquiring the club from Frank McCourt before the 2012 season, the Dodgers ownership group has been a smash hit with Angelenos. And if the latest rumor pans out, the love affair will only intensify.
The group that saw Magic Johnson take a seat in the owner's box and put players like Adrian Gonzalez, Zack Greinke and Yasiel Puig onto the field is reportedly turning its attention to the announcing booth as it prepares to launch its own network before next season.
And the man they apparently have their eyes on?
Orel Hershiser.
Citing two sources within the club, The Big Lead reported that the Dodgers are targeting Hershiser as the "announcer to be the face of the network in the coming years."
While no one would go on the record for the story, TBL reported that Hershiser's contract with ESPN "is almost up, and he is currently in negotiations with ESPN." Hershiser serves as an analyst for the network on its Sunday night games and in-studio shows.
The Dodgers, purchased from the loathed McCourt just before the start of the 2012 season by a group led by Guggenheim Partners CEO Mark Walter and including Lakers legend Johnson, plan to launch SportsNet LA before the 2014 season. MLB is reportedly close to approving the network.
Hershiser is one of the most beloved Dodgers since the days of Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale. His 1988 season has become Dodger legend, winning the NL Cy Young and World Series MVP in what remains the franchise's last championship season.
Broadcasting legend Vin Scully, 86, will return to call games for the Dodgers next season, but perhaps the Dodgers are making plans for his eventual retirement.
And while most Dodgers fans dread the day Scully retires, gotta imagine replacing him with the Bulldog would be a PR win.

Digital marketers size up the new device.
Apple's iPad has dazzled consumers. And the latest model, unveiled today, includes features that marketers will need to consider in the coming year.
In fact, Apple CEO Tim Rose said Apple sold 15.4 million iPads last quarter, which is more than the sales at any individual PC company during the same period, BusinessInsider reported.
Three marketers, in email interviews with ClickZ, shared how they anticipate the tablet will affect marketing in the coming year.
Better Display
"Certainly the retina display makes a big difference. At 264 pixels per inch, the new iPad has twice the resolution of iPad2 (in fact, it's got more memory and a better screen resolution than an Xbox 360 or PS3), and that translates into a bigger canvas on which to create more powerful digital experiences," said Andrew Solmssen, a managing director at Possible Worldwide.
Improved Camera for Video, Still Images
"Marketers should definitely be excited about the much improved video camera and camera, which will enable more sophisticated apps with functionality such as facial recognition," Solmssen said. "The boost in video camera performance will also improve consumers' ability to capture videos to contribute to campaigns."
Faster Download Speeds
"With 4G LTE, the new iPad is capable of download speeds up to 73 Mbps, and more bandwidth opens the door for more immersive, interactive marketing and ad work," Solmssen added.
Robert Weber, a founder of W3i, concurred. "The biggest impact for marketers will be LTE support. This will dramatically increase internet speeds and result in the ability to create much more engaging app experiences," he said.
High-Quality Device Deserves High-Quality Content
"The new iPad delivers more of everything to the consumer, and marketers need to do the same," said Melissa Krueger, senior marketing consultant, ExactTarget. The new iPad offers a higher resolution display than the iPad 2 and promises a faster processor.
She pointed out that primary uses of the device are "entertainment, exploration, and self-expression in a low effort, 'lean back' environment." And as a result, she said, marketers must consider how their offerings coincide with these uses and mindset. "It's really all about high quality content that is pleasurable to consume and easy to manipulate and share," she said.
And What's Missing…
"These new features also highlight what iPad is still missing - specifically, an exciting, standardized ad model. iAd has been anemic at best on iPad and is due for a serious refresh. Advertisers also need a library of actions that they can use to quickly and easily make creative that, as described above, takes advantage of the tablet for what it does best," Solmssen said.

I won't give him major props if he wins a 3 round main event where neigher guy is damaged at all. "Picking him apart" = landing jabs as he is circling back. Hopefully Dan takes him down.
My issue with Dan is outside of the bombs he throws most of the fight, he always tries to do as little as possible to win fights. I thought that mainy times - second time with Bustamante, both times with Masaki, Franklin (won the first 2 and took the third round off).

Medals and Marketing - Award Shows Provide Honors and Brand Boosting
Award shows are an important element of a company's marketing plan; the top tier shows are judged by some of the highest ranking members of our industry and provide opportunity for ongoing peer and client recognition. As with film festivals, the selection process for any award show is subjective and secretive, so entering is a gamble. But for a few hundred dollars a year, your company and work could receive exposure easily worth tenfold.

The National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) series (formerly titled National Household Survey on Drug Abuse) primarily measures the prevalence and correlates of drug use in the United States.
Due to unequal selection probabilities at multiple stages of sample selection and various adjustments, such as those for nonresponse and poststratification, the 2008 NSDUH sample design is not self-weighting. Analysts are advised to use the final sample weight when attempting to use the 2008 NSDUH data to draw inferences about the target population or any subdomains of the target population. All estimates published in SAMHSA reports (such as the results from the 2008 NSDUH) are weighted using the final analysis weight for the full sample (ANALWT). For the public use file, the corresponding final sample weight is denoted as ANALWT_C, with the "C" denoting confidentiality protection. This sample weight represents the total number of target population persons each record on the file represents. Note that the sum of ANALWT_C, over all records on the data file, represents an estimate of the total number of people in the target population.
In the mental health module of the 2008 NSDUH, the adult sample was split into sample A (MHSAMP08 = 1) who received the World Health Organization-Disability Assessment Scale (WHODAS) questions LIREMEM through LIAD68, and sample B (MHSAMP08 = 2) who received the Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) questions MHAD66a through MHAD68. The mental health adult split-sample weight (MHSAWT_C) was created to accommodate analysis using either one of the split samples, and it is the product of person-level analysis weight (ANALWT_C) and a poststratification adjustment that was done separately for both sample A and sample B. The mental health adult split-sample weight for both sample A and sample B was controlled to the Census population estimates for the civilian, noninstitutionalized population aged 18 or older. It is noted that the MHSAWT_C was set to zero for all 12 to 17 year olds and the 10 adults who were not assigned to either of the split samples. The MHSAWT_C can be used for generating mental health estimates when using just sample A data or when using just sample B data separately. However, if mental health estimates are generated using both sample A and sample B combined data, then the person-level analysis weight (ANALWT_C) should be used.
