Chappellet Vineyard
Vintage: 2011
The year 2011 was an interesting year for many northern and central European countries, as the weather was more than unpredictable in the spring and summer. However, in most countries, the climatic conditions thankfully settled down in the late summer and fall. The result of this slightly difficult year of weather in France was a set of surprisingly small yields, but overall, these yields were of a higher quality than those harvested in certain previous years. A fantastic set of wines was also made in Italy and Spain, and the Rioja wines - when released - are set to be very good indeed. Austria also had superb year in 2011, with almost fifty percent more grapes being grown and used for their distinctive Gruner Veltliner wines than in the year before. Possibly the European country which had the finest 2011, though, was Portugal, with wineries in the Douro region claiming this year to be one of the best in decades for the production of Port wine, and the bright, young Vinho Verdes wines. In the New World, the Pacific Northwest saw some of the best weather of 2011, and Washington State and Oregon reportedly had a highly successful year, especially for the cultivation of high quality red wine grapes. Chile and Argentina had a relatively cool year, which certainly helped retain the character of many of their key grape varietals, and should make for some exciting drinking. South Africa had especially good weather for their white wine grape varietals, particularly Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, and many South African wineries are reporting 2011 as one of their best years in recent memory.
Varietal: Cabernet Franc
Cabernet Franc varietal grapes are a key ingredient in many of the finest wines in the world. For centuries they have been used in their native France for balancing out and adding their unique flavor and aroma to the finest wines of the Bordeaux region, and in more recent decades, they have been used all over the New World in attempts to emulate this most illustrious of wine styles. Alone, Cabernet Franc is an exciting, rich and elegant wine grape, producing wines packed full of interesting and highly aromatic characteristics. Violets, tobacco, bell pepper, blackcurrant and several other notes are regularly found within wines made from this grape, and the rich, pale garnet red color they offer makes them a favorite for both vintners and wine drinkers around the world.
Region: California
California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.
Country: United States
Whilst there are several strains of native grape varietals in the United States, it was the introduction of the European species which prompted the country to begin producing wines on a large scale. Over the past few centuries, experimentation and cross-breeding has produced great successes in regards to the quality and suitability of the fruit grown in states such as California, Oregon, Washington and New York, and the past few decades have seen New World wines from the United States reach much higher standards. Arguably the finest United States wines have always come out of California, where the climate and terrroir is most suitable for fine wine production. The masterful blending of classic grape varietals such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot, amongst others including Syrah and Chardonnay, have had world beating results in recent years, prompting many to suggest that there has never been a better time for buying and drinking United States wines.
Appellation: Napa Valley
In the United States of America, one wine region seems to stand head and shoulders above all others. The Napa Valley of California has long been considered one of the world's premier wine regions, and the wineries which operate in this idyllic landscape now have generations of expertise when it comes to coaxing the very finest flavors and aromas from the imported varietals which thrive there. Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Merlot and Zinfandel have become the flagship grape varietals of the Napa Valley, however, recent years have seen much expansion and experimentation undertaken by the large and small wineries which call the valley their home. With ideal climatic conditions for viticulture, and wonderfully rich and fertile soils, the Napa Valley continues to grow and impress each year.

The big debate on trust rebates
This month's election for Wel Energy trustees is all about how to spend 54 cents, the difference between a 90 per cent or a 100 per cent rebate.
Relevant offers
It's the 54c election. More than anything else, this month's Wel Energy Trust ballot revolves around a debate about how Waikato electricity consumers could best spend 54 cents a week.
That amount reflects the maximum difference between the 90 per cent rebates already disbursed to Wel customers and the 100 per cent rebate half the existing trustees would prefer to see introduced, at the expense of community grants.
Ballot papers are being dispatched this week, in what may appear to cynics as a chewing gum budget vote, but has become a defining issue for the two major power blocs on the trust.
Trust chairman Garry Mallett's "Power Rebates We Won't Be Beaten On Discounts" team has clearly signalled its desire to do away with community grants financed by interest on trust investments in favour of assisting its Wel Networks lines company to further increase its rebate to customers.
By contrast, the new PDT Power Discounts team formed by an alliance of existing trust members Tania Hennebry, John Easto, Mark Bunting and Brad Chibnall, and first-time candidates Mark Ingle, Rob Hamill, Dave Currie and Denise Harding believes that there is still an important place for community grants.
While $22 million was disbursed in this year's consumer rebates, community grant funding now accounts for just $2 million.
Trust deputy chairwoman Tania Hennebry sees retaining a small component of annual grants as a fundamental part of the Wel Energy Trust mission statement of "Here for the community".
"I think a lot of people don't understand what this is all about," she says. "Fifty four cents a week is actually the top end. In a lot of cases it could be 25c. To stop funding valuable organisations for that amount doesn't bear thinking about."
Defending the continuation of grants has prompted Mallett to tag Hennebry's PDT group as "The Disappearing Discounts" team something that irritates Hennebry.
"It is being blown up as sensationalist stuff `they are going to take your discount away' but it is blatantly untrue.
"I go to Raglan and I swim. I'd like to think that if I got into trouble someone would jump into an inflatable and come and rescue me. Our funds help them with equipment and support so they can do their jobs, because they are volunteers."
Ingle, better known as Waikato University's manager of campus services, says the election outcome will provide an interesting perspective on the community's own sense of community.
"The 54c is insignificant from an individual perspective, but very significant from a community grants perspective when it gets bundled together."
Ingle says power rebates are reaching the peak of what the trust is able to extract from Wel Networks in negotiations.
"The only other bucket that hasn't been pilfered is the trust money, which is where the grants come from."
Hennebry was swept into the trust in 2002 on the Power Rebates Team ticket, where the original aim was to reduce grants, though she says nothing has changed.
"We always said when we came together as a group that the grants would be retained.
"When we came together in 2002 the trust was 100 per cent grants, and the trust of the day would not listen and people did want to have discounts. We just sought a better balance, and delivered on a promise to extract some fat from the company to pay out dividends in the form of rebates."
Bunting, better known as a top-rating radio DJ, says voters have to think hard about how they see the future of their community.
"Wel Energy Trust is an invaluable organisation in the evolution of our city. It is a real asset, a community jewel and what worries me is that, with respect to these other guys (Power Rebates - We Won't be Beaten on Discounts) there are a lot of right wing business guys in there.
"It's like putting the rats in the cheese factory. They have a philosophical objection to community-type things and that scares me.
"I'm not a socialist, but I can see if we lose this, it's gone, it's not coming back. We'll be left to poker machines and gambling outfits to fund our worthy causes and that's really frightening."
As a broadcaster Bunting interacts with a lot of community agencies.
"From surf lifesaving to social agencies working with at-risk kids, there is a lot of good work being done out there.
"You don't see that stuff going on if you don't want to, but we've got a pool of money there that can make a huge difference to them."
Bunting has had two terms on the trust as an independent, but found he had similar views to Hennebry, Easto, and Chibnall (formerly members of the old Power Rebates Team) and saw the need to be part of a wider group.
"It would be suicide to go against the rebates because they obviously make a huge difference and people love them.
"But while the primary focus is rebates, I was also worried about community grants getting hacked away. It was a natural alignment to join the PDT team."
Annually the trust gets $7 million of applications for grant funding, which gets whittled down to $2 million.
Bunting: "It's a big battle. We have people who are quite philosophically opposed to grants but are quite happy to get their noses in the trough when it comes down to community grants rounds for their favourite things."
Mallett argues that those who believe in grants are perfectly able to donate their rebates to causes of their choice.
But Bunting says that is impractical.
"Everyone would have to write out a cheque for 10 cents to every organisation.
"Besides, how many people will run for their chequebooks and make a donation when they get their rebates?
Ingle, who has a strong accountancy and business management background, says the trust need not be highly politicised and must consider the impact of its decisions.
"Some community organisations won't be able to function if we remove their funding."
Bunting agrees.
"I'm getting a lot of feedback about balance. I'm hearing a lot of people say there is room for both discounts and community grants."
Hennebry: "I just hope people's sense of fairness and balance will come in, rather than greed.
"For less than 54c a week how can you say goodbye to all the good work that bit of money does out in the community?"

Joey Votto expected to come off the disabled list Monday
Aug 31, 2012, 1:48 PM EDT
There had been some speculation that Joey Votto would rejoin the Reds when rosters expand Saturday, but John Fay of the Cincinnati Enquirer now says he expects the former MVP to come off the disabled list Monday instead.
That's when the Reds return home to begin a three-game series against the Phillies and would give Votto a little extra time to make sure his surgically repaired knee feels good while rehabbing in the minors.
There's no real reason for the Reds to rush Votto, even a little bit, because they have baseball's best record at 80-52, lead the NL Central by 8.5 games, and have played extremely well without him in the lineup.
- natslady - Aug 31, 2012 at 2:00 PM
Actually, by pct. the Nats have the best record (.608 vs. Reds at .606). The question is, is the best record worth having? The way the playoffs are set up, maybe it's better to have the second seed, so you know who you are playing and can plan accordingly? Do I have that right?

Whodeytn – You better believe he's going to bench Frazier. That's how Dusty is. Very loyal to his vets through thick and thin. He'll have an aging Rolen and a TERRIBLE OFFENSE in Drew Stubbs on the field but he will definitely sit his player going for ROY in a heartbeat. That's Dusty Baker. Makes no sense at all.

Bottom line the Reds have the best team in the MLB, bar none. They will win the NCLS and win the World Series. Top to bottom, pitchers through catchers the Reds are the best team I have seen put together since the 1999 Yankees. Especially impressive considering they are "small market" team.

Finding Mum & Dad: TV review - Channel 4's sensitive documentary shows that finding a family is far from child's play
Will Dean
Will Dean is Editor of The Independent Magazine
Wednesday 15 January 2014
The working title of Finding Mum & Dad (Channel 4) was "The Adoption Party". It was rejected, one presumes, on the basis that it was a touch crass. It was a more fitting title, though. This was the story of a handful of adoption activity days, an event in which prospective parents looking to adopt, mingle, play and chat with children looking for permanent families.
On the surface, it sounded like quite a murky concept. A try-before-you-buy market for kids. But as one of its organisers – Bridget – explained to us, the standard adoption procedure matches children with new parents without them even meeting. Or, as she put it: "They walk in and they're asked to be a family. And it's a big ask. I wouldn't buy a sofa from DFS online without sitting on it." Which is one way of looking at it.
We followed the story from the viewpoint of some of the children hoping to find "forever families" and a pair of adults. Connor and Daniel (aged six and four) who live with their foster carers Katy and Paddy and their teenage kids. Because they're relatively old, male and come as a package, they're proving difficult to find a home. Which, even as a casual viewer, was a heart-melter. For Katy, it was an absolute wrench. The first adoption party left her feeling as if she'd put the boys through an ordeal for no real benefit.
On the other side of the fence are James and Karen, two teachers who want to adopt. The awkwardness of the activity day was felt by them, too: "This is the first time it's felt like we were rejecting children rather than choosing them. So it was difficult," explained Karen.
The "parties" themselves – though clearly a good idea as they double the chances of kids finding adopters – looked like incredibly hard work for both adults and children. Poor social workers, like Geneve, are made to work the room like, well, sofa salespeople. "What kind of child are you looking for today?" she almost says. But if it works, well, it works.
This documentary didn't get a happy ending. Connor and Daniel's one interested party chose other children, and James and Karen didn't find any children they want to adopt. But if there is a plus – and the boys haven't already been adopted – then it's that this fine film will probably increase their chances of doing so by multitudes.

Fractal Design Tesla R2 1000-Watt 80 PLUS Gold Power Supply Review
Back in June, we took our second look at what Fractal Design has to offer when it comes to the power supply market. We were very pleased with what the Newton R3 800W had to offer, but it was a tad bit expensive for an 800W unit. When you're on a tighter budget and need more power, you may have to give a little to get a get a little and that is just where Fractal Design's Tesla R2 series comes into play.
The Tesla R2 series is meant to fill the gap between their entry-level Integra R2 series and the Newton R3 series. You lose some of the features that you have with the Newton R3 series, such as modular cables, but you get more power than you can get out of the Integra R2.
The model we are looking at today is the Tesla R2 1000W, which is the largest power supply available in the series, but it is available in three more wattages making the series reach from 500W to 1000W.
We can sit here all day long and talk about things, but let's just start digging into this thing and see if it ends up being worth your hard earned cash.
Specifications, Availability and Pricing
The Tesla R2 1000W power supply features a single 12V rail capable of 80A or 960W. Both the 3.3V and 5V rails are rated for 20A each with a combined maximum output of 100W. The 5VSB rail is rated for 2.5A or 12.5W. Maximum rated output for the Fractal Design Tesla R2 1000W is 1000W.
When talking about budget power supplies, it is often assumed that there are going to be a few features missing. The big difference between good and not so good budget units often lies in just which features are missing. As most would expect, the modular cables are the first to go. After that you start getting rid of the protections.
Over Temperature is usually the first to go as it requires an extra piece of hardware to monitor the temperature and parts cost money. That is just what Fractal Design has dropped with the Tesla R2. The Tesla R2 does feature SCP, OVP, OCP and OPP. All of the native cables are fully sleeved. It features an 80 PLUS Gold efficiency rating, but is not rated for 100% continuous output at 50C. Instead, Fractal Design rates it for a more modest 40C.
Fractal Design has an MSRP of $164.99 on the Tesla R2 1000W power supply. That puts the unit competitively priced with the competition and definitely makes it a great buy for someone on a tight budget. The Tesla R2 series is just making its way into the USA, but it has been available outside the USA for a little while now. For the USA folks, at the time of writing, Provantage comes in with the cheapest price of $176.65 after shipping. Even so, that still makes this a bit on the cheaper side for a 1000W unit. Fractal Design offers a rather short three year warranty on the Tesla R2 series.

Governor Quinn has a bill on its way to his desk that would allow illegal immigrants to obtain temporary driver's licenses in Illinois. The Governor supports the bill, which proved controversial in the legislature.
By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
1/8/2013 (2 years ago)
Published in U.S.
Keywords: Illinois, licenses, Quinn, illegal immigrants
CHICAGO, IL (Catholic Online) - Opponents of the bill say it will invite fraud and abuse leaving too many questions unanswered after debate.
Meanwhile, supporters see it as a security issue.
Estimates are that some 250,000 individuals will apply for the new licenses that would be valid for three years. They would also be renewable.
All that will be required will be one year of residence in Illinois, and copies of bills to prove residence. The licenses could also be sued for identification purposes.
However, the licenses cannot be used for doing other things such as purchasing a gun or voting.
Opponents of the bill want to see additional security added to it, such as fingerprinting. The bill's supporters oppose fingerprinting because it would add substantial cost to the program.
However, Republican House leader, Tom Cross said that Illinois should welcome immigrants "who want to work, who want to be part of our communities. We should work with them, not fight with them."
Quinn has already pledged to sign the bill.

Eskimo Joe Album Details
Its a bit different, but I like.
Quite a strange song indeed. I read somewhere that the album has a really heavy song that sounds like Kashmir by Led Zeppelin...
I really really love this single. I just know I'm going to love the album.
Yeah I like it for its strangness.
I don't even think it's that strange.
Well whatever the instrument ar the start is odd.. And in regards to Kashmir Alligator, Foreign Land has a section that sounds a little like Kashmir.
Okay, I listened to the two b-sides and they were boring as shit. Expectations suitably lowered.
haha, I'm was yet to listen to those, I will now not/

Luv u Joojoon. Your cartoons are amazing! And so "too the point". And the characters are delightful. If they are based on reality……Wow!
Oh, they're based on reality. Salome and her husband walked into the JPress editorial offices a few months ago and it was like a Hollywood movie where a cartoon dissolves into a real image.

DICE Adds New Servers to Help Battlefield 4 Rubberbanding
Keri "Pwny" Honea
09:42 am EDT @ April 25th, 2014
It's utterly astounding, but DICE is still working on fixing Battlefield 4. This week, they added new servers to fix the rubberbanding issue that users have complained about the most.
They explained that they did a lot of testing before officially launching the new hardware ensure they actually resolve the rubberbanding. They added that performance is already improving thanks to the new servers.
"While the process took longer than we would've liked, we wanted to be 100 percent sure it was done right and that the long-term solution was properly in place," said Karl Magnus Troedsson, vice president and general manager of DICE.
Maybe the game will be finished by the end of 2014.
