Benziger Cabernet Sauvignon 2006
Cabernet Sauvignon from Sonoma County, California
Winemaker's Notes
This wine is full-bodied and round with well integrated tannins for a smooth finish. The initial aroma contains dark berry fruit with a hint of earthiness. In the mouth the wine is intensely flavored with components of cherry, cedar, tobacco, toast, herbs, and blackberry.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Enthusiast - "A very nice Cab, at a good price. shows real fanciness in the ripe blackberries, currants and spices, with a rich overlay of smoky oak. And the tannins are just right."
Benziger Family Winery
The Benziger Family Winery was founded in 1980 on the slopes of Sonoma Mountain. Their Reserve wines showcase those rare lots discovered in the vineyard or developed in the cellar that receive the highest level of care and emerge as the best of the vintage. Benziger also produces Benziger Family wine and the limited production Vineyard Designate wines. At the core of Benziger Winery are eight, same generation family members committed to managing every aspect of grape growing and winemaking. View all Benziger Family Winery Wines
About Sonoma CountyView a map of Sonoma County wineriesRelated Links:
Twice as large as Napa in size, Sonoma County only makes about a half the amount of wine as her northeasterly neighbor. But Sonoma, with her size, is able to vouch for more diversity within her borders, including sub-AVAs that are climatically varied. The atmosphere of Sonoma is decidedly laid back and down home country style. But in wines, they are keeping up with the Joneses, or Napa-ites if you will. Grape varieties are more varied here, from Pinot Noir and Zinfandel to Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay.
Notable FactsThe largest sub-AVAs of Sonoma include Dry Creek Valley, Russian River Valley, Alexander Valley and Sonoma Valley. Each sub-AVA, with its own micro-climate, is unique in its grape varieties and styles of wine. Dry Creek makes a mean Zinfandel while Russian River produces stand up Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The Alexander Valley makes some of the better Cabernet Sauvignons in the county and Sonoma Valley creates excellent wines from all the above varieties. Other grapes found throughout Sonoma include Sauvignon Blanc, Merlot and Syrah.
About CaliforniaIt'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.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost 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 & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

Common racetrack confrontation takes tragic turn
By Viv Bernstein, New York Times | August 10, 2014 | Updated: August 10, 2014 11:55pm

Ward was killed Saturday, Aug. 9, 2014 at the Canandaigua Motorsports Park in Central Square, N.Y., when the car being driven by Tony Stewart struck the 20-year-old who had climbed from his crashed car and was on the darkened dirt track trying to confront Stewart following a bump with Stewart one lap earlier.

Stewart struck and killed Kevin Ward Jr., 20, a sprint car driver who had climbed from his car and was on the track trying to confront Stewart during a race at Canandaigua Motorsports Park in upstate New York on Saturday night. Ontario County Sheriff Philip Povero said his department's investigation is not criminal and that Stewart was "fully cooperative" and appeared "very upset" over what had happened. (AP Photo/Derik Hamilton)
Tony Stewart, a three-time NASCAR champion, was moonlighting Saturday night. He had gone back to his racing roots for a few hours, competing in a local dirt-track event at Canandaigua Motorsport Park in upstate New York, bumping and grinding his high-powered open-wheel sprint car with the mostly unknown competitors.
There was nothing unusual about Stewart's presence at the track or about the little hit he delivered to Kevin Ward Jr.'s race car that sent it spinning into the outside wall during the race. And it was not all that surprising to see Ward, 20, unbuckle his seat belts, jump out of the car and look to confront Stewart on the track. It happens sometimes in racing. Stewart himself had done that to a driver in a 2012 NASCAR race.
What happened next, however, was hard for anyone to fathom but available for the world to see in a widely circulated video.
As Ward stood on the track and pointed at Stewart, Stewart's race car fishtailed, the right tire hitting Ward and dragging him under the car. Ward was thrown several feet and lay motionless on the track. He was later declared dead at a local hospital.
The accident left a racing community in mourning, a NASCAR star's future in question, and a sport under the microscope for its history of verbal and often violent confrontations between adrenaline-fueled drivers.
The death occurred about an hour away from Watkins Glen International, where Stewart was supposed to compete in a NASCAR race Sunday. But after his team had said it would be "business as usual" for Sunday's race, Stewart announced he would not compete.
"There aren't words to describe the sadness I feel about the accident that took the life of Kevin Ward Jr.," Stewart, 43, said in a statement. "It's a very emotional time for all involved, and it is the reason I've decided not to participate in today's race at Watkins Glen. My thoughts and prayers are with his family, friends and everyone affected by this tragedy."
The accident is being investigated by the Ontario County Sheriff's Department, which said Stewart was cooperating. No criminal charges have been filed.
"Of particular interest at this time is forensic examination of any videos that exist of this crash that occurred last evening," Sheriff Philip C. Povero said. "At this very moment, there are no facts at hand that would substantiate or support a criminal charge or indicate criminal intent on the part of any individual."
Ward was from Port Leyden, N.Y., a small town at the foot of the Adirondacks about 140 miles northeast of Canandaigua. According to his website, he began racing go-karts at age 4. He moved up to the Empire Super Sprints series at 16, winning Rookie of the Year honors in 2010.
Ward's family issued a statement, saying, "We appreciate the prayers and support we are receiving from the community, but we need time to grieve and wrap our heads around all of this."
Conflicting opinions
Witnesses offered conflicting opinions about Saturday's wreck, some blaming Ward for approaching Stewart, others the darkness of the track. Still others pointed to Stewart.
Although it seemed Ward put himself at grave risk by walking onto the track while race cars were on it, that kind of action is not unheard of in racing. Drivers have confronted other drivers directly on the track, and fistfights on pit road or in the garage are not uncommon.
In 2012, Stewart walked onto the track at Bristol Motor Speedway after a wreck with Matt Kenseth and threw his helmet at Kenseth's race car in disgust.
Earlier Saturday afternoon during a NASCAR Nationwide Series race at Watkins Glen, driver J.J. Yeley walked onto the track after a crash to make a gesture at Trevor Bayne, who had bumped him into the wall.
Sprint car driver Tyler Graves, a witness to Saturday night's crash, told the Sporting News that Stewart would have been able to see Ward from his car and that Stewart hit the throttle as he got close to Ward.
"When you hit a throttle on a sprint car, the car sets sideways," Graves said. "It set sideways, the right rear tire hit Kevin, Kevin was sucked underneath, and was stuck under it for a second or two."
History of incidents
It does not help that Stewart has a long history of combativeness on the track and off, battling drivers, NASCAR officials and even the media. He was once fined $50,000 after a confrontation with a photographer and said he would seek anger management counseling.
Standing beside the dirt-caked maroon Volkswagen rally car he races some weekends, Russell Norton, 45, said the thought that Stewart might have been sending a message to a younger driver haunted him.
"As a race car driver, that really scares me," he said.
Others disagreed.
"In no way do I think it's Tony's fault," said Scott Caton, bartender at nearby Canandaigua Brew Company, who has been attending races at the track for 43 years.
This was not Stewart's first accident at Canandaigua. He was involved in a 15-car wreck in July 2013, and two drivers were taken to the hospital. He later apologized for being too aggressive on the track and causing the crash.
Stewart has been racing sprint cars, which are much different than the closed-wheel stock cars of NASCAR, for years. He broke his right leg in a crash at a dirt-track sprint car race last August, forcing him to miss the rest of the NASCAR season. He returned to NASCAR in February and was back in a sprint car by July.

The present coin displays pleasing light gray toning and surfaces that are remarkably clean for the grade. The Liberty and eagle motifs are fully outlined and contain a modicum of internal detail. All of the other design elements are clear, except for the bottom of the 2 in the fraction, and are nicely centered on the planchet. A small squiggly scrape in the lower right reverse field near the rim identifies the coin.
The connoisseur of Bust halves does not want to miss out on this lovely lower- to middle-grade piece of Americana. Such an "affordable" specimen that is devoid of mentionable problems may not appear on the market again for some time.

Ranieri said he did not plan to make radical changes to a Greece team which reached the last 16 of the World Cup for the first time.
"For me there is no need to make many changes in the spine of the squad, but we'll see that more clearly when we are able to evaluate all the players," Ranieri said.
"I want to continue this hard work ethic."

NCAA punishes USC; infractions linked to Bush
NCAA USC report
- Tim Sullivan:Bush needs to tell the truth, the whole truth
- April 24, 2006:Parents of Bush face questions about home
- April 28, 2006:Owner: Bush parents owe rent
- April 29, 2006:Lawyer: Bush's parents got cash
- April 12, 2007: Landlord settles with Bush's parents, won't sue for rent
- April 22, 2010:Reggie Bush settles benefits lawsuit
Q-and-A: USC MAY LOSE 2005 NATIONAL TITLE
QUESTION: What will USC have to forfeit from past seasons?
ANSWER: It will have to vacate football wins from December 2004 (two wins) through the 2005 season (12 wins). That means the wins are erased from the record books and will not count as victories for the losing team on the field.
QUESTION: Is the team's BCS Championship won in January 2005 affected?
ANSWER: The win doesn't count. The BCS, which is independent of the NCAA, will make the call but rules will force it to strip the title unless USC successfully appeals to the NCAA.
QUESTION: What are the future penalties?
ANSWER: No bowl games for the 2010 and 2011 seasons. Loss of 10 football scholarships from the maximum of 85 for 2011, 2012 and 2013 seasons. Four years of probation.
QUESTION: Is Reggie Bush's Heisman Trophy affected?
ANSWER: Maybe. It's up to the Heisman Trust, which declined to comment. The Heisman ballot states "the recipient must be in compliance with the bylaws defining an NCAA student-athlete." Bush was ruled ineligible that year. But the Heisman Trust may take into account Bush's charity work since winning the award in 2005.
QUESTION: As part of the sanctions, will USC be banned from television?
ANSWER: No. But the NCAA Infractions committee did consider this penalty.
QUESTION: Did USC know this was coming? Did the university do anything to lessen the blow?
ANSWER: It has been under investigation since April 2006. To mitigate NCAA punishment, USC imposed penalties on itself for violations in men's basketball involving star player O.J. Mayo. The NCAA accepted these penalties, including a postseason ban for this past season and the remittance of $206,200 USC received for its participation in the NCAA Tournament.
QUESTION: What was the action or event with Bush that triggered his ineligibility?
ANSWER: His parents and younger brother lived rent-free in a Spring Valley house from about April 2005 to April 2006. The house was owned by an investor in a sports marketing agency that sought to feature Bush as a client once he turned pro. Other gifts and payments also were alleged.
At the corner of Apple Street and Luther Drive in Spring Valley is a three-bedroom house purchased in 2005 for $757,237.
The buyer's name was Michael Michaels, an investor in a startup sports marketing agency.
The tenants who lived there in 2005 got a pretty good deal from him: They lived in the house rent-free, according to several documents.
But now many others will have to pay a harsh price for it. The NCAA on Thursday imposed severe penalties on the University of Southern California athletics program as a result of an investigation that started with that house, which was occupied in 2005-06 by the parents of USC running back Reggie Bush.

Edinburgh University's School of Physics and Astronomy have analysed the atmosphere of Luhman 16B, a brown dwarf 6.5 light years away from Earth.
They found it is surrounded by a searingly hot blanket of patchy clouds made up of droplets of liquid iron and other minerals. As the object rotates, bright and dark clouds move in and out of view and alter its brightness. Using two telescopes in Chile, the researchers mapped a layer of the clouds and reconstructed what happens at different levels of the atmosphere.
Dr Beth Biller said: "We are excited by what we have been able to see in these studies, but this is only the start. With new generations of telescopes, such as the forthcoming European Extremely Large Telescope, astronomers will likely see surface maps of more distant brown dwarfs - and eventually, surface maps for young giant planets."
Two studies of Luhman 16B appear in the Astrophysical Journal Letters and journal Nature.
Methods used by the astronomers could eventually be applied to small, cool planets in other solar systems.

Paul Di Resta excited by new Circuit of the Americas challenge
The first thing that strikes you about the new Circuit of Americas in Austin, Texas, is the towering hill on the approach to Turn One.
The steep rise, reminiscent of a ski jump, promises to become a trademark of the new track in which so much hope is invested as Formula 1 attempts yet again to gain a foothold in the American market that has proved so resistant over the years.
Rather as with F1 in America, though, it takes a lot to impress Paul di Resta.
Circuit of the Americas facts
- Race distance: 308.896km
- First grand prix held: 2012
- Circuit length: 5.516km
- Number of corners: 20
Walking up the incline at the start of his usual walk around the track with his engineers on Thursday, the Scottish Force India driver shrugged and said: "It's just like India."
Di Resta, like everyone in F1, recognises the importance of having a grand prix in America, is pleased to be here and is looking forward to this race.
But he is "not that keen" on the new breed of F1 circuits designed and built by Hermann Tilke, the German who is effectively the sport's in-house architect. Austin is the latest example; India its most recent predecessor.
Di Resta likes Malaysia, the first track Tilke built, and admits to being partial to Korea as well. And as he continued on his exploratory lap of the track on foot he acknowledged that Austin, almost certainly the most important of all, might be one of the better ones.
"It's always nice to go somewhere new," Di Resta says. "You're always a bit reserved until you get out on the track in the car. Having been to India a second year, it's all a bit too much what they've tried to do there. This one is a bit more open; a nicer track to drive."
Like most of his rivals, Di Resta already knows the Circuit of the Americas pretty well having driven many laps of it in his team's simulator - a sort of computer game on steroids.
That takes some of the mystery out of it, but walking the track is still a useful exercise to establish information that the simulator cannot reveal - kerbs, potential alternative lines, safety issues, and so on.
Tilke has deliberately modelled parts of the Circuit of the Americas on 'classic' features of other tracks in F1. So the swerves of Turns Three, Four, Five and Six are the famous Becketts complex at Silverstone; Turns 13, 14 and 15 are meant to be reminiscent of Hockenheim's Stadium section; and the linked right-handers of 16, 17 and 18 are intended to be Turkey's famous Turn Eight in reverse.
But you know what they say about the best-laid plans.
The 'Becketts' section will undoubtedly be enjoyable and fast - McLaren's Jenson Button said it will give the US fans a great idea of an F1 car's mind-blowing high-speed direction changes - but it's obvious as you're walking through that it is more compacted than Becketts.

And Di Resta says that while part of the challenge of Becketts is that the driver is braking while he is turning in some of the high-speed corners, here the braking will probably be done in a straight-line, making the cornering less of a challenge.
Likewise, the 'Hockenheim' section is hardly anything like its German counterpart; and 'Turn Eight in reverse', while still a decent corner, is not really a match for its magnificent predecessor.
Equally, the DRS detection point - where drivers have to be within a second of the car in front to enable them to use the overtaking aid on the long straight - is after a sequence of corners from Turns Seven to 10 which Di Resta and Button feel may make it hard to stay close to another car.
Austin bears the hallmarks of many Tilke tracks - big, asphalt run-off areas; a long, long straight; a high-speed section; a slow-speed section - but it still has an element of uniqueness about it.
Much of the track is lined with red, white and blue paint, reflecting the colours of both the Stars and Stripes and Texas's Lone-Star flag. There is a tall observation tower overlooking the 'Becketts' section, with a transparent floor. And there is a nice touch in allowing RVs - or 'campers' as they are sometimes called - to park alongside the track in some places.
"Normally that wouldn't happen in F1," Di Resta says, "but that's the way Americans like to go racing. That's what they want to do; that's what gets them here."
On this, Di Resta speaks with some authority - his cousin, Dario Franchitti, has made his fortune in US racing as a multiple IndyCar champion and three-time winner of the Indianapolis 500. Married to Hollywood star Ashley Judd, Franchitti will be in Austin from Friday to cheer on Di Resta.
Other aspects of the new track are less successful - the most obvious being the pit building, the architecture of which carries overtones of a high-security prison.
The key question, of course, is whether the race will be the hit everyone in F1 is desperately hoping for it to be.
On that, the first signs are encouraging.
Austin is famed for its Bohemian character. Its catchphrase is "Keep Austin Weird", and in the recent Presidential elections it was an island of support for Barack Obama in solidly Republican Texas. So it is not perhaps the most obvious place to host the overt ostentatiousness and wealth of F1.
But it has embraced the race pretty wholeheartedly. Local news bulletins are heavily focused on Formula 1, and residents are clearly enthusiastic about the "gran pree".
Di Resta, in only in his second season and driving for a midfield team, is not exactly the most recognised face in the sport and is a reserved character, too. But he says that on a shopping trip with his girlfriend on Wednesday he was recognised "quite a lot". "They seem to be quite into it," he says.
Di Resta suspects that the publicity surrounding the Grand Prix of America in New Jersey, recently put on the 2013 calendar and then taken off it, has actually helped raise interest in the new Austin event rather than detract from it.
"That race is such a big thing," he says, "and people have possibly said: 'Well we've got a chance to go to Texas beforehand to see what it's all about.' We were here doing some PR work and people were talking about that one as well as this one."
New Jersey is supposedly going to be on the calendar in 2014, but for now Austin is all F1 has. So if F1 is going to work in America it has to be here.
Texas has provided a purpose-built track, designed to show off the best of F1, and a multi-year contract, in a location with an audience that appears at least intrigued by and receptive to its European visitors.
As Di Resta says: "This will be the true test of whether it will work in the US."

@53 ArthurDayne.
Tosh from an obvious anti-Scots, DC and di Resta hater.
DiResta had less points but on speed he was only beaten 10-9 by Sutil, which is good for a rookie VS a notably fast 5 year F1 veteran.
He is so "average" he beat his F3 teammate Seb Vettel.
So "average" he won the ultra competitive DTM championship.
Be interesting to see if the Sauber or FI is faster next year.
Comment number 53. Posted by ArthurDayneon 18 Nov 2012 12:54
DiResta was demolished by Sutil (a guy without a drive)last year and is losing again this year to the Hulk. Why do people tout him as a top driver, he is average just like his cheerleader Coulthard was.
Comment number 52. Posted by jameson 18 Nov 2012 12:19
Di Resta might well be excited, but we are not at all excited by him. If he ever did end up at Ferrari, it'd be to clean Fernando Alonso's boots...

#23: "Em - Dario - 3 time Indy 500 Champ? Please fix."
Why? The statement is correct - DF won the Indy 500 in 2007, 2009 and 2012. You're maybe getting mixed up with the IndyCar championship, which he's won four times (2008-2011).

LOL I'm just being honest. PDR has been quite lackluster at times and has never even made it onto the podium like Perez has but the BBC always hype him up along with their other best mate Jenson regardless of their performances.

@straightalker PDR doesn't make mistakes but for poor luck in 2011 he would have outscored Sutil as well as beat him for pace that season. He is matching the highly rated Hulk this season and will probably beat him in the end and has won in every category he has raced in.he is more reliable than top drivers like hamilton and vettel as he doesn't crash into other people as much. he is a top driver.

If you want to make it in F1 you cant allow youself to be talked into joining the camp of an on track rival !
As you will inevitably be treated less favourably by the incumbent !
Button does not want to be relegated to third in British drivers status so Paul only has himself to blame for his short sighted and unrealistic expectations.. I can see him at HRT or Marussia in a few years , v-possible !
Comment number 46. Posted by Bacarudaon 17 Nov 2012 08:01
The RV park is essential! Few events in US sport go truely national., so objective is to establish event, fill the circuit. COTA is looking to Mexican/international fans for help.
F1 never impacted on US even in Watkins Glen/Long Beach glory days. except hardcore fans, I lived 100 miles away when Watson sensationally won from the back @ Long Beach, absolutely nothing in next day´s paper!
Comment number 45. Posted by DaTroothurtzzon 17 Nov 2012 07:32
Isnt it ironic how Di Resta is fast becoming another highly paid tester in F1? He has been given the classic switcheroo by the Button band wagon!
When he was guided by one Anthony Hamilton he was more prominent in the news for the right reasons- His talent and potential etc.
However his ungreatful treament of Hamilton is rewarded with a downturn of form_ what he deserves in my opinion ! ALSO RAN !
Comment number 44. Posted by Silly Arseon 17 Nov 2012 01:15
So many great race tracks have been modified into modern mediocrity or overlooked completely, and we're stuck with rather a lot of silly new designs, or even sillier 'street circuits'. Just Spa and Suzuka stand out as the last real, proper racing circuits, for me, at least.
Comment number 43. Posted by straight talkeron 16 Nov 2012 23:47
I'm not sure why PDR is so overhyped as a good driver deserving a top seat.
I really don't see what hes done to warrant that? lovely but very boring bloke and for me he's been nothing more than an also ran for his entire F1 career.
Comment number 42. Posted by Baueron 16 Nov 2012 23:14
Most of these tracks are just pretty much the same now and by God I can't stand Korea.
They have no feeling to them, no soul if you will. I've raced the new track on F1 2012 and it just makes me feel... meh, just like all the other "new" ones.
We need more tracks like hockenheim, nurburgring, silverstone, suzuka etc etc. Proper racing tracks.
Bahrain, India, Korea, UAE, China... they are awful

Adrian Newey will win this championship again. Vettel is very talented but.... The F1 business, its not a sport, is tedious and I bet the stands are empty on Sunday

>"Seb, Lewis, Mark, and Jenson are all looking quick with full fuel loads. Fernando will struggle to qualify onrow two."
He does not have to qualify with a full-fuel load. And Alonso looks very competitive with a race-spec car.
Comment number 39. Posted by Jamie1989on 16 Nov 2012 21:18
@Twirlip I meant that Caulthard often drove cars designed by Newey but under achieved in them, although according to many, anyone can win in a Newey designed car.
Comment number 38. Posted by Twirlipon 16 Nov 2012 20:49
Perhaps you meant that Coulthard in the Newey McLaren was a lot faster than Coulthard in the Newey Red Bull. if so, point taken.
Comment number 37. Posted by SinophilinSpainon 16 Nov 2012 20:40
Twirlip I love your unrealistic optimism. Seb, Lewis, Mark, and Jenson are all looking quick with full fuel loads. Fernando will struggle to qualify onrow two.
Comment number 36. Posted by Twirlipon 16 Nov 2012 20:37
>"Coulthard would have been a better example."
I honestly have no idea what you're trying to say there.
>"Kimi's always been considered a quick driver "
Yes, but Seb's always been considered a quick driver.
>"his Mclaren was either unreliable or slow"
It was only unreliable in 2004. Look it up. As for "slow", the claim being made is that Newey cars are incredibly fast.
Comment number 35. Posted by SinophilinSpainon 16 Nov 2012 20:30
Who wins the championship could well rest in Lewis's hands; finishing ahead of Fernando will help Seb extend his lead. Finishing ahead of both Seb and Fernando will make Brazil more interesting.Don't be surprised to see Lewis on the Podium.

Artist and writer Kate Durbin is both a scavenger and connoisseur of the Internet. She prowls the immaterial space, searching for images that express the emotional lives of adolescent girls. It was on Facebook that I first noticed a link to Durbin's project "Girls, Online," a collection of anonymous Tumblr posts from teenage girls that she assembled for Chris Higgs's website Bright Stupid Confetti. Durbin captures the blogs and reblogs of sensitive adolescent teens and tweens, women-born-women, trans bois and gay boys. Her main focus, however, is on adolescent girls who are subject to the male gaze. The teenage girls she sees float about in that in-between space of clinging to girlhood and transforming into women.Continue Reading →

I think it's just one of many fun games. Probably like a lot of others, I keep a list of current tags - mainly on weekends when I have more riding time available. If the NC is within reach, it's on the radar. If not, there are a host of other opportunities for me: Triangle, North Central NC, Mid Atlantic, Eastern NC, NC ABC, VA, Roanoke, Second Chance, and all the wild card games. Just because the NC has been floating around near Bryson City or Nags Head doesn't hamper my ability to go out and chase tags.
I don't think this new game dilutes my ability to have fun tagging one iota. I think it's great for the Boone/Asheville/Bryson City crowd that are petrified to go anywhere the horizon is more than a few hundred yards away...

What's Happening
Boise State University's volleyball team is hosting its annual spring exhibition tournament this weekend when the Broncos welcome five schools from the region for the one day event in Bronco Gym. Joining Boise State at this year's tournament are the College of Idaho, Eastern Oregon, Montana State, Northwest Nazarene and Southern Idaho.
There will be a total of eight sessions with two matches going on simultaneously. The first session begins at 9:00 a.m. (Mountain) with sessions running approximately every 45 minutes. The format of this tournament will feature two sets per match that will be played to 25, win by two. Do to time constraints, regardless of the outcome of the first two sets there will not be a third set played to break a tie.
Admission and Parking Information
Admission and parking is free to this event which will have limited seating. With two matches going on in each session the lower level of the gym will be closed to fans, spectator seating will be limited to the second level on the west side of Bronco Gym. This is a very busy weekend at Boise State with numerous events going on all day. As a result, parking for this event is free but will be located in the Norco Parking Lot off of Beacon Street between Vermont and Michigan, two blocks south of University Drive.
The Bronco Roster
The Boise State team has an experienced squad of nine returning this spring highlighted by senior setter Casey Rose, junior outside hitter Alyssa Gammel and junior middle blocker Brittany Reardon.

analysisBy Rebecca Davis
While the DA basked in Spy Tape triumph in Pretoria, the EFF had a muted time of it in Parliament, with their first motion thoroughly defeated and mention of Julius Malema's tax bill trailing him. The EFF also failed to win a single seat at the Wits student elections when results were announced on Thursday. The DA will be hoping that this represents the order of things going forward: the EFF all flash and no substance, while the DA's painstaking, long-term projects - like the Spy Tape litigation - bear fruit.
It's been a fortnight where many people been drawing unflattering comparisons between the DA and the EFF - unflattering, that is, for the DA. Used to comfortably occupying the territory of the most consistent and vocal opposition to the ruling party, the DA has suddenly found itself pushed into a new space. It's a space where the red-overalled upstarts have seemed to capture the imagination of even those who might balk strongly at the idea of voting EFF.
In a country where many citizens are gatvol, the EFF has succeeded in harnessing a spirit of anger and defiance and bringing it squarely within the ordinarily demure...

The report is based on a survey of more 1,300 senior decision-makers at large organizations from around the world. The report's key findings include

Sony Pictures has moved up the release of its Brad Pitt World War II pic "Fury" from Nov. 14 to Oct. 17.
The tank drama, co-starring, Shia LaBeouf and Logan Lerman, is directed by David Ayer and said to be an awards contender. The date change also puts "Fury" much closer to the Telluride or Toronto film festivals, which is where Pitt's "12 Years a Slave" launched last year before going on to win big at the Oscars. So far, however, neither festival has confirmed the film.
Written by Ayer, "Fury" centers on a tank battalion led by Pitt's character forced to make a last stand against the Nazis behind enemy lines.
The WWII drama takes the place of the Seth Rogen comedy "The Interview," which was slotted to bow on Oct. 17 but recently moved to Christmas Day. Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu's "Birdman" also opens on that date in limited release.
more to come...

Yes, Mr. Cho, plan, strategize, find the next big move for us...and make it a big man You know how everyone keeps saying that we need a big man or 2 to really help out in the paint? No? Perhaps you've noticed in the box scores that all of our points come from the Guards and seldom do our big men have to score all that much? No? Does anyone remember Coach Dunlap saying at Media Day that we have to be a team that is hard to scout? Was I the only one paying attention? Well then, let me just spell it out for everyone. If you shut down our guards, there's not too much that we can do on a basketball court. We might have fallen in Chicago, but there's a new name that the Bulls remember. Take the jump to see who it is. I won't go into a ton of details on the night because losses like this, though sometimes expected, are still frustrating due to awkward substitutions, non-calls by the refs, and really good Bulls defense.

These sweet berry tacos are an easy yet impressive dessert. Pre-made biscuit dough is fried in a skillet to resemble a taco shell. Each one is then filled with freshly whipped cream and berries.
Berry Dessert Tacos
Recipe Courtesy of Pillsbury
2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
1 cup fresh blueberries
2/3 cup sugar
1 cup whipping cream
1 can Pillsbury® Grands!® Flaky Layers refrigerated Butter Tastin'® biscuits
2 tablespoons Pillsbury BEST® All Purpose Flour
¼ cup Crisco® Pure Vegetable Oil
In medium bowl, gently mix strawberries, blueberries and 4 tablespoons of the sugar. Cover; refrigerate, stirring occasionally.
In small bowl, beat whipping cream with electric mixer on low speed until slightly thickened. Increase speed to medium. Slowly add 2 tablespoons of the sugar, beating until stiff peaks form. Cover; refrigerate.
Separate dough into 8 biscuits. Sprinkle flour on work surface; press or roll each biscuit into 6-inch round.
In 12-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high heat. Add 2 biscuit rounds to skillet; cook 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side or until light golden brown. Repeat with remaining biscuit rounds, adding more oil as needed. Drain on paper towels. Sprinkle one side of the biscuit rounds with the remaining 4 tablespoons sugar.
With slotted spoon, spoon 1/3 cup fruit mixture lengthwise in middle of unsugared side of each biscuit round. Spoon rounded 1/4 cup whipped cream along outside edge of fruit; fold biscuit round over to form taco. Serve immediately.

'Why I'm still strong and mentally alert at 100'
Felicia Adebodun Popoola, a princess of Odo-Aye Kingdom in Ondo State, has just clocked 100. At the age many of her peers are battling with one ailment or the other and have gone senile, she is still looking strong, healthy and mentally alert. In this interview with GBENGA ADERANTI, Princess Popoola talks about her life and the secrert of her good health. Excerpts:
You still look strong and healthy at 100, how often do you visit the hospital?
Well, I bless God for good health. I rarely go to the hospital for any major illness; but I was in the hospital sometime in January, 2012 for a brief check-up.
Where did you grow up?
I grew up in Ode Aye in Ondo State.
What was your growing up like?
I grew up in a royal home. My father was a king in Ode Aye Kingdom, Ondo State. Being the first child and a princess made a lot of difference while growing up. My father being a king married so many wives that gave birth to many children.
Tell me one thing you would never forget as a teenager
When I got married to my husband, the late High Chief Popoola and also when I gave birth to my first son, it was a joyful and unforgettable experience for me.
What is the secret of your health?
Firstly God; secondly, I eat healthy and I make sure I use natural spices for cooking. I don't use maggi. I'm very used to herbs; I drink and even bathe with them.
What is that food you can't do without?
Boiled yam and boiled plantain. I eat it even after my normal meal; it serves as my snacks.
How is your day like?
I used to be a farmer but I don't farm again. Once in a while, I sneak to the farm not for any strenuous work but rather in search of my herbal ingredients. All I do now majorly every morning after my bath is to rub my powder, prepare my meal and start observing life.
How many children do you have?
God blessed me with three boys and four girls. By the grace of God, they are all grandparents now.
The first time you introduced your husband to your parents, how did your parents react?
React? It was a very special day for me, but it was a very rainy day with lots of music and dance. It was like a festival with lots of prayers being from a royal family.
Did you influence your sons' or daughters' choice of partner?
Nowadays, we don't choose spouses for children any longer. In fact, all my children brought their spouses and I gave them my prayers and support. I have grandchildren that are married with children and I did not influence their marriage. They brought their spouse themselves.
Would you have allowed your children to marry a non-Nigerian?
Yes, I will accept it if that is their choice.
Do you still eat meat?
No, but I eat turkey.
If you were to advise a person who is getting married now, what will you tell the person?
The most important thing for a person that is due for marriage is to marry the bone of their bone. They should also pray to God that they will be friends and grow old together.
Are you afraid of death?
No, I am not afraid of death. I know that one day, God is going to call me home, so all I do now is take good care of myself, eat good food and constantly pray for my children and community.
How do you feel each time you celebrate your birthday?
If a child is hungry and you give him or her food the child will be happy. I am always happy each time I celebrate my birthday because the entire family and community come visiting and we all eat, drink, dance together and give thanks to God.
Why do you prefer to stay in the village rather than in the city?
The village is my home not the city. When a sheep goes out, he'll always
Come back home. So I go to the city once in a while to greet my children and I come back home because I cannot cope with the hustling and bustling of the city.
Do you still do some things like cooking and domestic work?
Yes, I still cook and sweep my room daily myself, because I hate dirt in the environment. I'm still very strong. I go to market myself. The Lord has given me unusual grace and strength. I'm very grateful to Him.
If you had the opportunity of changing something about yourself, what would you change?
I would change the fact that I am not educated and that I was not able to train my children in school; also I was not very wealthy.
What is your attitude to religion?
I am a Christian, I go to my church for services.
What is that thing that makes your heart skip?
Nothing, I am not afraid of anything, just waiting for when God will call me. And my prayer is that all my children would be alive to bury me.
Your regrets in life?
I have no regrets in life. God has been very good to me and my prayer is for my children and grandchildren to be excellent in every area they are involved.
Your happiest moment?
Anytime I set my eyes on my children and grandchildren and anytime the good news of the wedding of any of my great grand children or of a newborn reaches me.
How do you feel now that you have passed 100 years?
I feel very good; it's just like the beginning of a new page for me. My prayer is that my demise should be very glorious with lots of jubilation and celebration.
We learnt that there was a free medical check-up during your birthday, why?
Yes, there were free medical check-up and free drugs given out to the elderly on my birthday as a way of giving back to my community.It was organised by my grandson, Olamerun Gbadebo, who is the Executive Coordinator of Senior Citizens Care Foundation, an NGO that takes care of the elderly. About 87 people were administered drugs to and 49 people were given glasses.
