There will be no reserve Cabernet from Seven Hills in this vintage and, as is sometimes the case, the regular bottling is all the better for it. Here the addition of fruit from Klipsun, Artz and other blocks, generally used in the Pentad bottling, adds heft and depth. Lovely aromas of raspberry and cherry, highlights of basil and other fresh herbs, and bracing natural acidity create a perfect mix of flavors that remain delicate yet penetrating.

3 of 12 - God is Love - He Gives Us Kindness - Billy Crone - Today's Christian Videos
Embed bcrone1 2768 views 2008-03-17T00:00:00 One of the most misunderstood attributes of God is that God Is Love. Notice I didn't say He is loving or even just loveable. He's love itself. And people, stop and think of what that means. Every single thing God has ever done or ever will do is a perfect act of love. Why? Because God Is Love. But herein lies our problem. We live in a society that has a warped view of what true love is. When you mention the word "love" today, most people think it refers to doing something sexual. But people, God demonstrated what true love is by something sacrificial. He sent His Son to die for our sins. Now that is love! But even here, we've become so numb to this amazing act of God's love, that we have lost any appreciation for it. Therefore, God Is Love takes a look at the 6 ways God demonstrates that He is love itself. He does it by giving us Compassion, Kindness, Graciousness, Faithfulness, Patience, and Goodness. And what's so incredible about all this is that the whole time it's not only free for the asking but we don't deserve it! People of God, if we can't seem to appreciate the fact that God Is Love, then something is terribly wrong with us! If we had any idea of the depths of God's love we would not only fall on our knees in reverence and kiss the very feet of Christ but we'd get up on our feet and run to tell everyone of their immediate need of Christ! Why? Because that's what happens when you truly understand that God Is Love.

An accident near Fingal early Monday claimed the life of a Wisconsin man.
The accident occurred on Highway 32, 10 miles south of I-94 near Fingal. The driver, a 56-year-old male, was northbound on Highway 32 and entered a curve.

Crosby medical team not on same page
Penguins/NHL Videos
Members of Sidney Crosby's medical team seemingly can't agree on when the Penguins captain will be ready for contact drills.
Crosby will participate in noncontact activities during the first training camp practices Saturday at Consol Energy Center, he said Friday shortly after players reported to camp.
At about the same time, Ted Carrick, a Florida-based chiropractor who has been examining Crosby for about a month, told a Pittsburgh radio station, "Sid's as ready (for physical contact) as just about any player in the NHL."
"Now it is more a situation of his physicality and getting back into shape," he said.
Officials at UPMC, where Crosby has been treated at a concussion clinic, declined to address Crosby's status, citing HIPAA laws.
But UPMC officials were "surprised" by Carrick's comments, spokeswoman Susan Manko said. She said Michael Collins, a clinical neuropsychologist who diagnosed Crosby with a concussion Jan. 6, stands behind comments he made at a Sept. 7 news conference with Crosby and Carrick.
"We're going to make sure we introduce contact in a very careful way," Collins said at the time. "And we're not even close to that right now."
The Penguins declined to comment but were not pleased with Carrick's speaking to WDVE-FM, team sources said.
Crosby has not played since Jan. 5 because of a concussion and concussion symptoms.
"Whatever symptoms I've had have been pretty minimal," Crosby said. "To be cleared (for noncontact activity) is good."
Carrick did not return phone messages left by the Tribune-Review.
"Certainly, he's a different person than when we saw him from a few weeks ago," Carrick told the radio station. "He'll be back in the game pretty darn quick â€' quicker than I think other people would have ever thought."
Collins, who heads UPMC's renowned concussion clinic, did not refer Crosby to Carrick, Penguins sources said.
Crosby, with the Penguins' permission, began seeking second opinions this summer, visiting concussion specialists in Michigan and Georgia, in hopes of learning what was causing a recurrence of headaches during workouts.
Crosby had been working out in April before being shut down during the Stanley Cup playoffs because of headaches. He was cleared for noncontact skating but had to alter his workouts in August because, at 90 percent exertion, he again was experiencing headaches.
Penguins head physician Dr. Charles Burke, an orthopaedic surgeon, has the final authority to clear Crosby for contact. Collins has served as the head of Crosby's concussion team based on Burke's recommendation.
Crosby reiterated his stance from 10 days ago that since seeing Carrick he hasn't felt better.
"At this point, I'm just worried about (Saturday's practice) and getting through it," he said.
Crosby will wait until after practice to determine whether he will skate Sunday.
"Practices at the end of the season are probably lighter than what camp's going to be," Crosby said. "I think camp will be a pretty good indication (of where I am). It's going to be pretty intense. Even without contact, it will be a pretty good pace."
Crosby said there is no assurance he will be cleared for contact before the Penguins' season-opener Oct. 6 at Vancouver.

The Staff wishes you both well, wherever you are and asks me to mention that Simon appeared at Le Louroux all dressed up as a travelling musician... he would like to know how he managed that? [The Staff says the picture is on his flickr site.]ReplyDelete
He would also like to know if this Lavoir ever had a roof on it? Personally I hope not... it looks such good drinking water for us cats... seems a shame to spoil it!!
There are so many of these Lavoirs around. Some lovingly restored and some looking quite sad. This one is quite different to any we have seen, and I agree it does look like Roman style. Have a good weekend DianeReplyDelete

Gallery: State of California Shows up the Fed's Emissions Targets With ...
In 2013 California will go where no U.S. state has gone before – it will start a comprehensive emissions limiting program by employing the mandatory use of carbon credits throughout the state for large emitters. AB 32, the Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006, was passed by the state legislature and signed into law by Governor Schwarzenegger. It gives the California Air Resources Board (CARB) the power to start limiting carbon emissions on a small-scale immediately after the passing of the bill, and asks CARB to develop a long-term plan for the reduction of the state's carbon emissions. The long-term plan will institute a carbon cap-and-trade program that is expected to reduce emissions by 2-3% per business each year until 2020. The plan will allow businesses to sell credits for excess carbon they reduce or buy credits if they are unable to do so. The plan starts in 2012 with present levels of carbon emissions, and reductions will become mandatory in 2013.

It isn't that important to the point of this article but California is the United States third largest state. Largest economy… largest population… Largest governor maybe?

Last I checked California was the third largest state in the US. Alaska is bigger then Texas (next largest) and California combined. Perhaps you meant most populated?

Great issues of the day are tackled boldly and head-on.

As the NFL world sets to play it's final game of the 2012 regular season this Sunday, some eyes are already looking ahead to the 2013 season and Super Bowl XLVIII. Next year, the Super Bowl will be played at the Meadowlands in New Jersey, marking the first time that the big game will be played in a northern climate in a non-dome stadium. I despise the idea, and it seems that Baltimore Ravens QB Joe Flacco agrees.
Mike Klis of the Denver Post got quite an answer from Flacco when he asked the New Jersey native about the Super Being in his home state next season. "Yeah, I think it's retarded. I probably shouldn't say that. I think it's stupid. If you want a Super Bowl, put a retractable dome on your stadium. Then you can get one. Other than that I really don't like the idea. I don't think people would react very well to it, or be glad to play anybody in that kind of weather," said Flacco.
The New York/New Jersey region got quite a blast of cold air last week, with many cities in the northeast setting records for record cold temperatures.
I couldn't agree with Flacco more. The award of the Super Bowl to New York/New Jersey was a horrible idea and I am hoping for record setting cold and massive amounts of snow so that the league never repeats this horrible decision ever again.

Yep, PaizoCon has a lot of publishers talking to writers, hanging out in their booth, what have you. It's small enough that you can probably bend someone's ear without trouble.
Artists who want to pitch me at GenCon, well, I get that it might be easier for people to attend, but the time pressures are a lot tougher there.
Small conventions are good for meeting publishers and art directors, is what I'm saying.
A totally reasonable concern!
Fortunately, we waited to launch this one until the Southlands project books were sent to press. Beyond approving printer proofs and working with our shipping team, there's not a lot for the Kobold crew to do until the Southlands launch.
Designers, artists, and editors all get bored when there's no project, so we're using our time on this next project.
The NPC codex is a chance for backers to contribute favorite characters, and for the book's designers to strut their stuff, and to make it super-easy to pull out and use.
It's major increase in the total number of NPCs. Because it's a PDF release (at least at $50k), it doesn't destroy the shipping and printing budget.
Chapter 19 is funded, and the Dhampir chapter is going in the book!
Next up are SRM's Jinnborn, and expansion for the Gearforged. Back it and get the goods for 19 playable races!

Is is possible to reveal what the five appendix races are so far? I see Owen KC Stephens is doing the Kitsune, and I think I remember seeing suli mentioned somewhere….
All I can say is that of the 5 appendix backers, 3 have expressed a preference. Those are:
Dragonkin (added into that chapter)
The other two are free-floating right now: I'll be happy to mention then when those backers choose the race they want covered.
The Halls of the Mountain King is not Kickstarter-only. It will also be available at PaizoCon and via the Kobold Press store.
Goblins in the Brewery is sold at conventions only, so ok, that one appearing on the Kickstarter is pretty much an exclusive.
And yeah, international shipping is a nightmare right now, and the rates are going to rise in about 2 weeks. Shipping is not fun as a buyer, and possibly even less fun as a publisher.
Maybe I'm too close to it, but I'm not seeing a lot of coyness in the Advanced Races Compendium. The races included are spelled out, the goals are spelled out, we've done a ton of art previews. As announced on the Kickstarter project page, Owen KC Stephens is writing the Kitsune appendix, which was sponsored by an Appendix Patron. Victoria Jackzo will write the Dhampir chapter (not yet funded).
FWIW, I tend to provide project information on the project page first, then social media and forums later. The latest update on the project page is here.
137Ben, as you said, the crunch on these races is all Open Content, with the possible exception of some regional traits that are drawn from particular Midgard locales (I think centaurs and maybe tiefling had some? Not sure). The setting material is closed.
Looks like the art goal is going well. Looking forward to getting backer input for those.
Hey, the Escapist has done an article on the Advanced Races Compendium!
They seem a little confused about the launch date, but still nice to see the coverage.
BPorter wrote:
Understood on lizardfolk, and as mentioned above, it's something we'll address in the expanded version of Lizardfolk (including Southlands sidebar material).
Hero Lab files are very much part of the plan, though we need to fund the hardcover itself first.
Oceanshieldwolf wrote:
Have the races that kinda lost the flavor been....flavored? I know it's hard to keep flavor things setting-neutral, but flavoring physiological differentiation or life cycles or gender differences could go a long way...
It was an experiment. I'll be adding some flavor and lore elements to the lizardfolk, both some elements related to Veles-Sa in the Southlands setting, and some more setting-neutral lore that could be dropped in anywhere.
El Ronza wrote:
Do the hard copy pledge levels really have international shipping charges included in the price? As a resident of the Land Down Under, I need to know before I pledge.
The pledge levels are quoted without international shipping, but I believe Australia is a $10 shipping charge. Sort of ridiculously low international shipping.
And I'm pleased to say that this race is included in the new HARDCOVER project, the Advanced Races Compendium, along with the rest of the Advanced Races series!
Please give it a look.
Sure, we are currently struggling mightily to get the hardcover book on press. It's close, which means if things go well we will hit a July release date for both the Campaign hardcover and the Southlands Bestiary. That's July for project backers--public release is more likely an early August ship date.
The project exclusives I won't guess on.
I say this with a touch of bias, but Larger than Life: Stone Giants is my clear favorite of the giants series.
Thanks, Liz! :)

Supposing we were not selected for the final cut; are we able to post our entries elsewhere, say a personal blog article or on these boards?
Nope, the contest rules are pretty clear that submitting a creature to the contest grants publication rights to Kobold Press.
That said, it isn't over yet. We're hoping to write a couple little spotlights on some of the other interesting creatures (after the voting is done, appearing in April), so it might appear there.
Also, anyone who is especially eager to keep their creature off the Kobold blog should send me a note. I'm happy to revert the rights.
The judges decided to go with a Top 6, because we had a lot of great entries. The first 3 are posted at KoboldPress.com, and voting will start this weekend or Monday latest.

All around him swirled other patrons, dancing, mingling, feuding. Across his table, Zéphyrine was upright, stiff like a soldier, armed with pen and paper. She looked at the slight englishman before her, her mouth twinging in subtle disgust at his groomed wild hair and practised fool's grin. His features were roguish too, proudly wearing his weather-worn face, slightly-greying hair only adding to his boyish charm. "It's unlike you to be this quiet, Brown. Shouldn't you be up having the ladies fall about your feet?" came her petite voice, flawlessly hiding her french accent.. Brown's eyes snapped to hers, eyeing up her angled features with a measured playfulness before replying. "Shouldn't you be acquainting yourself with the charming officers?

New York-based Human Rights Watch recently released a report entitled Just the Good News, Please: New U.A.E. Media Law Continues to Stifle Press, in which it urged the UAE government to review the draft media law. The report claimed that the draft law had several irregularities, and that it would promote self-censorship among journalists.
A large majority of the respondents to our poll, 73 percent, agreed that there is no freedom of speech in the country. Close to 16 percent felt that it does exist at times, when the government isn't looking. And around 7 percent said that, compared to the rest of the Arab world, the UAE does have freedom of speech.
Interestingly, just one person, representing less than 1 percent of our respondents, felt that the UAE scored positively in this area, and said 'Yes, absolutely' to our poll question. It is probably somebody who would agree with the response from the National Media Council (NMC), which is responsible for the draft media law, to the Human Rights Watch report:
"[The NMC] would like to note its view that some of the remarks made in the HRW report show either a real lack of understanding of the situation in the Emirates or an attempt to promote concepts and/or procedures that are not compatible with the laws of the UAE and its value system […] It is the view of the NMC, therefore, that such a preamble as is suggested by Human Rights Watch would be superfluous and unnecessary. The National Media Council continues to take the view that the new draft law represents a significant step forward in terms of press freedom in the UAE."
Finally, around 3 percent of our respondents said they don't care.

The Panasonic HC-X1000 1080p 4K Ultra High Definition Camcorder is created with a 4K 8-MP 1/2.3-inch BSI sensor. Compared with the 2-MP sensors used in ordinary Full-HD camcorders, this distinct sensor advantage renders UHD and FHD professional-quality results. Right down to the finest details and with minimal blurring.
4K Ultra HD Video On the Go. This highly agile, multi-format camcorder is ideal for shooting documentaries, sports and events. It supports 4K, Cinema 4K and Full-HD with frame rates that include 30p, 60p and 24p. In 4K 60p resolution, the mobile X1000 captures stunning, lifelike images. Using 60p/50p, the frame rate has twice the information of 30p for smoother motion. If you're ready for 4K, this is how you do it.
Versatile Formats and Bit Rates make the X1000 unbeatable in a wide range of applications. Its AVCHD, MOV and MP4 formats make editing quick and easy. And Full-HD utilizes ALL Intra compression for a maximum bit rate of 200 Mbps to bring incredible quality to image production.
2-Channel XLR Audio Input Terminals. For external mic and line recording, the X1000 is equipped with 2-channel input terminals. A +48 V phantom power supply is also included to handle pro-spec, high-performance microphones for recording high-quality sound.
20x Zoom with 4-Drive Leica Dicomar Lens System. To fit a 20x optical zoom into this portable body, the X1000 is designed with four compact, separately driven Leica Dicomar lens groups and a space-saving drive range. This efficiency - together with the subtle nuances and shading captured by renowned Leica lenses - clearly shows in sports scenes and other professional applications.
ND Filters. To suppress the amount of incident light, Neutral Density filters are built into the lens and can be selected - 1/4, 1/16, 1/64 or OFF - to match your shooting environment. It's a distinct advantage when shooting at a slow shutter speed in bright daylight. And you can attain high resolution and a shallow depth of field when opening the aperture.
Triple Manual Lens Rings. For speedy and intuitive shooting, independent focus, zoom and iris rings are included on the lens barrel to meet professional needs.

Great board for very small swimmers
from Baltimore, MD
on 9/16/2012
This kickboard has been a life saver for my little 6-year-old peanut. We bought it for her after she had trouble holding the big kick boards in stroke clinic last year. (she says the bigger boards pitch). She is now in swim team and uses it multiple times a week for particles and seems very comfortable with here. My average size 8-year-old says the board is a bit small for her but it's a great investment for a small/young swimmer.
Nice board

My 11 years old son likes this size of kickboard. Not too small or too big for him. Just right size for him since he is only 55 1/2 inches tall. Also it is comfortable to use during the practices.

I bought this kickboard for my 5 year old. It is still a bit big and pinches her a bit. She has to grow into it. I am sure it is a perfect fit for 6-7 year olds! Highly recommended.

Swim mom

Small, light and buoyant

from Ringwood, NJ
on 12/3/2008
My eight - almost nine - year old son uses this kickboard for swim team practice and finds that its weight and size are good for his wet bag, and that it provides the buoyancy he needs for his drills. He's very happy with this kickboard.

You know when you pet your dog or cat in a special place, and their leg goes back and forth excitedly? You just know you've hit the right spot! Well, if you were the owner of this cat, I think you'd know you hit the right spot because he would start singing!
Okay, so maybe he wouldn't start actually singing, but the voice dubbing in this video is just the best! I had to watch it twice, and was laughing each time! It perfectly sums up how most cats feel when you hit their favorite place!

Dynamite Entertainment is well known for it's "pre show" barrage of announcements, and there have been some good ones, but it's safe to say that publisher Nick Barrucci has rarely been as excited over anything as this: Dynamite has been granted a worldwide license to publish James Bond comics, including early years, and, it appears, all the characters. So maybe Young Jaws and Pussy Galore when she was just Pussy Moderate-amount.
Bond, James Bond coming from Dynamite
31 Days of Halloween: Neil Gaiman's Last Temptation starring Alice Cooper
About 20 years ago, Neil Gaiman was mostly known as The Sandman Guy. He was as beloved as ever but it was just before he became one of the work's bets known authors. ONE of his projects of the time was THE LAST TEMPTATIOn, based on a theme album by horror rock icon Alice Cooper. Illustrated by Michael Zulli, the themes of the album fit in well with Gaiman's work: a boy named Steven leaves from home only to meet up with the Showman and his Theatre of the Real. Buying a ticket to the show is buying a ticket to a nightmare.
Beautifully drawn by Zulli, and published by Marvel's bizarre Music Line (there was also a Billy Ray Cyrus comic by Paul S. Newman, Dan Barry, and Gail Beckett) this oddity is being brought back by Dynamite in a limited edition Hardcover Remarked edition, signed by Gaiman and remarked by Zulli, with the art remastered and colored by David Curiel at InLight Studios. The book is available in an edition of only 200, with bonus material including all three scripts to the book, the original outline, and Neil Gaiman's original correspondence with
Alice Cooper.
Dynamite expands Art Editions line with Vampiralla, Battlestar Galactica and John Carter
Battlestar Galactica art edition? Why yes, when Walt Simonson drew it. Dynamite is adding to its oversized Art Editions line with Simonson's BSG book, Jose Gonzalez' Vampirella and Marvel's John Carter Warlord of Mars series which had art by Gil Kane, Carmine Infantino, Dave Cockrum and more. Tasty!
Walker and Evely announced as creative team on Dynamite's SHAFT
Dynamite announced they would be doing a Shaft comic book a few months back, and now they have announced the creative team: David F. Walker and Bilquis Evely. Walker is a writer and filmmaker and one look at his blog BadAzz Mofo will tell you he's a complicated man. Plus he wrote a book on blaxploitation films so, yep. that works. Evely is a Brazillian artist who isn't an obvious choice, but an intriguing one. Variant covers are by Francesco Francavilla, Michael Avon Oeming, Ulises Farinas, Matt Haley, Sanford Greene, and a collaboration between Denys Cowan and Bill Sienkiewicz.

Interview: Aaron Gillespie is bringing the Chaos! with Purgatori
by Nicholas Eskey
This year, as part of Dynamite Entertainment's 10th anniversary, the comic publisher will be rolling out with "Chaos!" line of titles, including a rebirth of the cult classic Purgatori. The first issues goes on sale next month. Through the magic of the interweb, I had a chance to interview Aaron Gillespie, writer for Dynamite's take on the series, and ask him a few questions regarding the demonic femme fatal:
Army of Darkness Anniversary Special/Creator Reunion Due in November
Dynamite is celebrating it's 10th anniverasy with a special issue of Army of Darkness, Army of Darkness #1992.1 (after the year the film was released). This is appropriate, given that the Army of Darkness license was what started Dynamite down the path of becoming a publisher. Solicited for November, this is a bit of a "let's get the […]
Cullen Bunn on Masks II
Cullen Bunn is really spreading himself around these days. The Sixth Gun at Oni. Magneto and Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe at Marvel. Sinestro at DC. You can add Masks II at Dynamite.

New Lone Ranger Series by Gray/Villegas in November
Dynamite will be starting a new Lone Ranger series in November. Justin Gray will be writing it, which is interesting for a couple reasons. First off, it's unusual to see Gray's name without his usual co-writer/co-conspirator, Jimmy Palmiotti. Secondly, Gray (along with Palmiotti) is the longest tenured writer of the western genre in recent memory. His association […]
John Carter: Warlord of Mars Relaunches (and finally gets to use the proper title) at Dynamite
As you may recall, Dynamite and Edgar Rice Burroughs, Inc. came to an understanding a little while back and we're continuing to see the fruits of the agreement.

It's called an "event" series,. so […]

Evil Ernie Returns to His Own Series
Evil Ernie, last seen in Dynamite's Chaos! mini-series, will be returning in his own series.

First New Offering Under Digital India Initiative
The iPhone 5 is coming, and so are a slew of new or upgraded smart phones and tablets. How should security leaders prepare for this new wave of mobility? Malcolm Harkins, CISO of Intel, offers advice.
Intel, a pioneer in the bring-your-own-device trend, currently supports roughly 30,000 smart phones and other mobile devices used by its employees, and that number grows by 700 to 1,000 each month. To prepare for iPhone 5 and other new mobile devices, Harkins offers critical advice: As you secure the new devices when they enter the workplace, don't forget about the old ones as they exit. Many of these devices, if they are employee-owned, will be handed down to children. You don't want them handed down with critical data or applications still on them.
"My first thought is to go make sure our existing devices, as they get retired ... that our controls are in place to handle the potential volume of that change," Harkins says.
With the surge in new or upgraded devices come renewed concerns about data security, mobile malware and the growth of third-party mobile software applications - many of which pose veiled risks to users and, by extension, their organizations.
"That's a growing concern around not only how you might potentially mitigate the malware that might get onto the small form factor devices," Harkins says, "but if it was widespread, how would you handle that event?"
Because users are on the front line of receiving the threats and protecting the devices, security awareness is vital, Harkins says, and it's a key focus for Intel's security team. In this interview, Harkins discusses:
Don't miss Harkins' webinar on BYOD, Mobile: Learn from Intel's CISO on Securing Employee-Owned Devices.
Harkins is vice president of Intel's Information Technology Group and CISO and general manager of information risk and security. The group is responsible for managing the risk, controls, privacy, security and other related compliance activities for all of Intel's information assets.
Before becoming Intel's first CISO, Harkins held roles in finance, procurement and operations. He has managed efforts encompassing IT benchmarking and Sarbanes Oxley systems compliance. Since joining Intel in 1992, Harkins has held positions as the profit and loss manager for the Flash Products Group; general manager of Enterprise Capabilities, responsible for the delivery and support of Intel's finance and HR systems; and in an Intel business venture focusing on e-commerce hosting.

Product description
A non-incorporated territory of the United States, Puerto Rico operates under U.S. legal, monetary, security and tariff systems. Despite sharing in these and other key U.S. institutions, Puerto Rico has experienced economic stagnation and large scale unemployment since the 1970s. The island's living standards are low by U.S. standards, with a per capita income only half that of Mississippi, the poorest state. While many studies have analyzed the fiscal implications of Puerto Rico's political relationship with the United States, little research has focused broadly on the island's economic experience or assessed its growth prospects. In this innovative new book, economists from U.S. and Puerto Rican institutions address a range of major policy issues affecting the island's economic development. To frame the current situation, the contributors begin by assessing Puerto Rico's past experience with various growth policies. They then analyze several reforms and new initiatives in labor, education, entrepreneurship, fiscal policy, migration, trade, and financing development, which they incorporate into a proposed strategy for jumpstarting Puerto Rican economic growth. Contributors include Gary Burtless (Brookings Institution); Orlando Sotomayor, Luis Rivera-Batiz, Ramon Cao, Maria Enchautegui, Jose Joaquin Villamil, Eileen Segarra, Marines Aponte, and Juan Lara (University of Puerto Rico); Richard Freeman and Robert Lawrence (Harvard University); Helen Ladd (Duke University); Francisco Rivera-Batiz (Columbia University); Steven Davis and Bruce Meyer (University of Chicago); James Alm (Georgia State University); Ingo Walter, Rita Maldonado-Bear, and William Baumol (New York University); Belinda Reyes (University of California, Merced); Alan Krueger (Princeton University); Carlos Santiago (University of Wisconsin); David Audretsch (Indiana University); Ronald Fisher (Michigan State University); Fuat Andic (UN Advisor); Arturo Estrella (NY Federal Reserve); James Hanson and Daniel Lederman (World Bank); James Dietz (University of California, Fullerton); and Katherine Terrell (University of Michigan).
