Product description
Geoff Emerick became an assistant engineer at the legendary Abbey Road Studios in 1962 at age fifteen, and was present as a new band called the Beatles recorded their first songs. He later worked with the Beatles as they recorded their singles "She Loves You" and "I Want to Hold Your Hand," the songs that would propel them to international superstardom. In 1964 he would witness the transformation of this young and playful group from Liverpool into professional, polished musicians as they put to tape classic songs such as "Eight Days A Week" and "I Feel Fine." Then, in 1966, at age nineteen, Geoff Emerick became the Beatles' chief engineer, the man responsible for their distinctive sound as they recorded the classic album "Revolver," in which they pioneered innovative recording techniques that changed the course of rock history. Emerick would also engineer the monumental "Sgt. Pepper" and "Abbey Road" albums, considered by many the greatest rock recordings of all time. In "Here, There and Everywhere" he reveals the creative process of the band in the studio, and describes how he achieved the sounds on their most famous songs. Emerick also brings to light the personal dynamics of the band, from the relentless (and increasingly mean-spirited) competition between Lennon and McCartney to the infighting and frustration that eventually brought a bitter end to the greatest rock band the world has ever known.

Customer reviews
By Trevor SCHWANZ 01 Aug 2011
I have just finished reading this and I found it very hard to put down.
It is well written by a person who was their recording engineer for years and there are a few surprises in there that the avid Beatle fan will find interesting indeed, fascinating perhaps.
The story centres around the huge amount of work done at Abbey Road and this book puts you in the engineers seat for comprehensive descriptions of how each song was made.
The chapter on the making of Sgt Pepper is brilliant.
Sadly toward the end the relationships that turned sour & split the greatest group ever are given some explanation.
If you are a true Beatle nut, this won't dissapoint.
Review quote
There have been hundreds of books about the Beatles, but only a handful from insiders. And for seven years, Emerick was a witness to history who worked alongside the Fab Four and producer George Martin. ("The Plain Dealer", Cleveland)

Read This: Growing Up Degrassi
Non-fiction edited by Michele Byers (Sumach Press)
REVIEW BY Jodi-Ann Smith
Michele Byers' Growing Up Degrassi: Television, Identity and Youth Cultures (Sumach Press) is a collection of 16 essays contributed by both scholars and fans of Degrassi Junior High, Degrassi High, and Degrassi: The Next Generation. For 25 years Degrassi has graced television sets across the nation, and this book explores the successes and failures the show has encountered along the way. Although rewarded for its contribution to Canadian culture, the show is more often critiqued for airing controversial topics. For over a decade, it has addressed subjects that many other series would never discuss—AIDS, abortion and drug use—leading to petitions to get Degrassi off the air.
Growing Up Degrassi is a remarkable effort. Containing a variety of voices, its aim is to show the role that the series has played in shaping the identity of Canadian youth. It achieves this aim, and goes beyond.
The introduction, "Creating a Classic in Television History," zooms in on the impact that Degrassi has had on the teenage demographic, as author Mary Jane Miller reminisces on the long way that the series has come. From The Kids of Degrassi Street in 1979, to Degrassi Junior High in the '80s, followed by Degrassi High and now Degrassi: The Next Generation, the series has earned the title "revolutionary" for being the first ever aired to specifically target the teenage demographic in Canada.
Though there were creative differences between the producers Kit Hood and Linda Shuyler, writer Yan Moore and CTV's American funding partners—which the book's editor, Byers, addresses in her essay, "Revisiting Teenage Truths"—the goal of the show was always to speak to teenagers in a voice that was authentically their own. Byers then takes a closer look at the subject of national identity and explores the factors that distinguish the series as being "Canadian" rather than "American."
Drugs, sex and money in Degrassi are all confronted in Bettina Spencer's essay, "Everybody Wants Something." Spencer critiques US counterpart shows, such as Saved by the Bell and Beverly Hills 90210, for lacking a realistic approach to teenage issues. Degrassi, on the other hand, is so realistic it almost seems unscripted.
At first glance the book appears bland—a textbook-like cover and a lack of photographs throughout the publication. Nonetheless, the contents prove that the old adage is true about not rushing to judgement. Growing Up Degrassi consists of powerful and edifying compositions, touching on topics that can only be understood by true Degrassi devotees.

ERWIN — A Unicoi County man was arrested Tuesday afternoon and charged with aggravated assault for allegedly cutting another local man following an altercation.
Unicoi County Sheriff's Department Chief Deputy Ronnie Adkins said two men, John Casteel and Bernie J. Evans, became involved in a physical altercation at a residence on Dewey Corn Circle in Erwin on Tuesday afternoon, during which Casteel allegedly cut Evans across the chest with a knife. Adkins also said a baseball bat was used in the altercation, though he did not say to what extent.
Adkins said the UCSD received a report that Evans had been cut around 4:45 p.m. Adkins said Casteel attempted to flee, but was located hiding in the woods by Lt. Jimmy Erwin's K-9 around 15 minutes after the report came in. Adkins said Casteel was located around one-fourth of a mile from the Dewey Corn Circle residence.
Evans suffered a serious laceration across his chest and attempted to drive himself to the hospital, Adkins said. Adkins said Evans managed to make it to the Rock Creek area of Unicoi County, where a friend met Evans and took him to the hospital.
As of Tuesday evening, Evans was still being treated at the Franklin Woods Community Hospital in Johnson City, Adkins said.
The incident, including what led to the altercation between the two men, is still being investigated by the UCSD, Adkins said.

Given that Jesuits have been aided in protecting pedophiles, and in fact were pedophiles themselves, given that Jesuit High School appeals to upper middle class and rich white parent elites, given that Jesuit High Schools uses sports as a cynical tool to propagate the name of the cult, given that this man's religion has waged a war of control and hatred toward women and gays, given that this man's masters have compared their oppenents to Nazis while their spiritual grandfathers in fact supported the Nazis and helped create centuries of anti-semitism that lead to the gas chambers, then let him walk around pimping his pathetic wisdom among the corrupt and vicious and the gullibile.
Let us set aside all issues of religion, politics, we have all of these people on a list who the authorities believe will at any moment committ an act of terrrorism, and yet, the authorities who put them on the list don't have enough to prosecute them??? The authorities mean to tell me the taxpayer paying for this stuff, that they cannot make a case against any of those thousands and thousands of potential terrorists? How many people exactly are employed to manage this list of thousands of thousands, and yet from what I can gather, not one gets prosecuted????

The truth of the matter is that any cop anywhere at any time can kill, main, beat, and terrorize anybody they want at any time they want with impunity from prosecution except in the rarerest of cases. The only recourse any victim or victim's family has for any justice is in civill lawsuits.
If Lowery cared about black-on-black violence he would examine the horrid unemployment rate among black males, the horrid school outcomes of black students in broken down schools, the lack of business loans to black business people, the horrid incarination rates, ,.... well you get the point...
The next and maybe more important question is whether Herr Kruger has significant authority on hiring, promotions, and other administrative powers within the department. He openly proselytized his beliefs which lead to his previous punishment. I would be worried about how far he may have spread his cancer within the department.
You know, there is a joy right wingers take when something potentially bad happens in America. Jon Stewart had the best quote--right wingers love America, but hate Americans.
Why do women participate and support an anti-woman sect such as Catholicism in the first place?
The beginning of the end for Komen. The media is misporting their so-called "turn-around". They still plan on defunding PP. From reports I read, but need conformation, they also are stopping monies for stem cell research as a method to cure breast cancer. A Pyrchic victory for the wingers.
The rather apparent rationale for the no-boys classes is that boys are destructive to the education of females. The article and their experts site this a number of times. Since the 70's America has rightly taken up the call for equal rights for women. We have seen the results of this in many areas. But after all the consciousness raising and influence of professional and working mothers, politicans, etc, the best that can be offered is that boys undermine to a rather severe level the education potential of girls--that the problem is really amounts to boys pulling tonytails??
The image that is being rather drawn of young men in say high school calculus and advanced science courses is one deliberate and destructive aggression toward the females in the courses. I attended those type of courses, and having spoken to parents of similar young men, I and they never witnessed the level of harrassement claimed by the so called experts.
It ain't good for anyone, males nor females, for education to be driven by such destructive beliefs.
Pitts is hiding behind weasel words. American action in Afganistan is not a war. It is an occupation. Now test the article if it read "Descretating civilian corpses. In an occupation your average rules don't apply."
And after all of these years, you are still a joke.
The reporter obviously was out to get the cops version and very little from the Liz Nichols. Was the description of the clothes meant to point out some symbolic difference between the two? I hope she stays in town. Taking a shot of pepper spray over free speech qualifies her as a hero.
The article is more about the culture war than about anything else. Castle laws are a few steps away from laws against the institution of Sharia. In this case, the woman would have been justified to use deadly force regardless if Castle laws were in effect or not. No prosecutor would be stupid enough to ever charge the woman regardless of state.
This article re-inforces the right wing propaganda machine which turned liberal into a bad word. OH MY GAWD A DEMOCRATIC STATE LAW MAKER IN OREGON IS A LIBERAL!!! AND SHE ASSOCIATES WITH LIBERAL LAW MAKERS. Pretty lazy article in this regard to simply act as an echo chamber to right wing politiccal cliches.
Your example raises an interesting question. How is that a charity can raise $500,000 for an ad campaign and yet you claim the organization lacks the scale to generate money to actually help people. Why would a charity that could generate that much money need an expensive ad campaign in the first place. It certainly brings into question the purpose of a charity that will take that much money and not use it for its intended purpose.
When the numbers of an charity begin to look like a for-profit business then time to take a second look at the purpose or the competency of the organization.
I am not sure if it is standard practice to give a ticket to a shoplifter and hope they show up. I know through friends, etc, that at least in Beaverton, they always take shoplifters first to the city jail and then transfer them to the county jail. Methinks some favoritism here.
Total nonsense. Modern corporations are ruled not by shareholder intent or action, but by the CEO and their cronies on the Board of Directors. They can do anything they want such executives who take down a company while earning millions. This htere is this right wing idea that essentially shareholders are compelling executives to pay themselves massive bonuses rather than actually putting that money back into dividends or other financial instruments to actually enrich said mythical shareholder.
You comment is the typical strawman (you do know what a straw man is, right?). The issue is the criminal and insider behavior of the financial system. They are not against corporations--but criminal actions by corporations.
Yup, about time we clamp down on thousands and thousands of those tax exempt entities known as churches.

Ensuring Tesla Doesn't Crowd Out the Batteries of the Future
Tesla is planning to scale up production of its lithium-ion batteries, which today power electric vehicles but tomorrow could back up the electricity grid, by building a massive "Gigafactory" in Nevada. Varun Sivaram argues that while positive in the short run, Tesla's mediocre battery could crowd out more promising, advanced battery technologies in the long run, impeding long-term progress on climate change.

As Double Fine head-honcho Tim Schafer told the crowd at the Develop conference last month, the poor sales performance of Brutal Legend meant that Eddie Riggs' first metal adventure would also be his last, with EA deciding against developing a sequel. With over 10 years of retail stores giving Double Fine's games the brick-and-mortar middle finger (i.e. the games didn't sell too well), Schafer has decided to give retail the double bird right back, starting a series of downloadable game projects within Double Fine.
Schafer told the Develop audience that three of their upcoming four games, each led by different Double Fine veterans, were currently in development as downloadable games, and today, the first of those games has been revealed from behind its cheap, plastic mask.
Costume Quest, the first downloadable release from Double Fine (and the first partnership between Double Fine and publisher THQ), is a hybrid RPG/adventure game centered around the only acceptable day to dress up in front of other people, Halloween. As revealed in UGO's exclusive announcement and preview of the title, Costume Quest will cast players as a young trick-or-treater searching for their lost sister after she goes missing during a candy romp. But finding your little sister won't be as simple as asking the neighbors, as her captor is a monster who hungers for her delicious candy. You'll search for the monster as well as do battle against his army of minions.
== TEASER ==Of course, these aren't real monsters you'll be searching for and fighting; Costume Quest's adventure-game puzzle solving takes place in a "normal" neighborhood on Halloween, while the game's RPG combat takes place in your character's imagination, where the dinky costumes of the neighborhood kids turn into what they believe they look like: a cardboard suit of armor turns to sterling silver, and tin can robot plating becomes harder than steel. You know... the way you acted when you were a kid wearing a silly costume that you thought was awesome.
It's also worth mentioning that while Tim Schafer is watching over the project, he is not the creative lead on this title. Costume Quest is being helmed by Tasha Harris, the lead animator on Brutal Legend (and a former Pixar animator).
UGO has more images and a full preview of Double Fine's latest, which sounds like it shares many gameplay and structure similarities with Hothead's Penny Arcade Adventures titles. I'll be interested in seeing how well Double Fine's strengths--their storytelling and art direction--translate to the digital format. We won't have to wait too much longer to find out; Costume Quest launches on (of course!) October 31 on both Xbox Live Arcade and the PlayStation Network.

Media That Matters: Good Food
Terminator Tomatoes
5:00 min
Director: Suzanne Twining
Producer: Suzanne Twining
More About Terminator Tomatoes from Director Suzanne Twining
Suzanne Twining's five minute animated short film, Terminator Tomatoes, was completed in 2001. In 1999 Suzanne had moved to Portland, Oregon to work for Will Vinton Studios on an animated television show called The PJs. Between the show's second and third seasons there was a hiatus of six months and everyone at the studio was laid off. In an effort to keep the employees in town, the show's producer offered the employees use of the studio space for personal projects. Suzanne seized this opportunity and made Terminator Tomatoes. With to access 35mm film cameras, huge set spaces and deluxe lighting packages the film took on a look that Suzanne could not have accomplished on her own, in her small garage space. She had to quickly flesh out the idea she had been kicking around for a long time, a comment on genetically modified foods. Suzanne grew up on a farm, and her parents are still farming today. She had been following the GMO controversy and was constantly distressed about the pressures that big chemical companies, like Monsanto, were putting on small family farms in America.
When the storyboards and designs were done, she began building the stop-motion puppets. She hired Steve MacDougal, also an employee Will Vinton, to do all her camera work and lighting. Other favors were called in to help with sets, puppets, and prop building. Suzanne did all the animation for the film, which took three months. On the days she wasn't animating shots, she would be dressing the sets, building props and setting up for the next day's shot. Dielle Alexandre did the editing of the film using the studio's Avid and helped prep for the negative cutting. When all the footage was shot and a rough cut was made, Suzanne began researching for a grant to finish the film on 35mm. She received a grant from The Puffin Foundation for finishing costs and to make the 35mm film prints. Since it's completion Terminator Tomatoes has gone on to show in festivals all over the world, helping people think about the dangers of genetically modified foods.

Connection to server problem when using home Wifi network
When I try to live stream to my iPhones or iPads when I am at home using the same Wifi network that the monitor is on, i receive this error: "Problem in connection to server". When I take my iPhone off the Wifi (and use 4G), it connects to the monitor for live streaming without problem.
What are the settings I need to change on my Wifi network or router to enable my devices to receive streaming feeds from the monitor? There must be some sort of conflict for streaming to devices on my own home Wifi network. This used to work, but recently has stopped. Perhaps with v2.2 of the in.sight iOS app?
Please advise.
Thank you.

As Simon Ndirgangu neared the halfway mark of Saturday's 37th Cooper River Bridge Run, he stole a glance at his wristwatch.
What he saw there was not good news.
"It was not a good time," said Ndirganu, a 28-year-old Kenyan who was trying to become the first man to win Charleston's famed 10-kilometer race for a third time. "Going up the bridge, I felt the wind was too strong for me, and I ended up dropping back a little bit."
On a warm and humid morning, youth was served at the Bridge Run.
Birhan Nebebew, a 19-year-old from Ethiopia, won the men's race in 28 minutes and 39 seconds. His countrywoman, 21-year-old Azmera Gebru, claimed the women's title in 32:14.
Neither winner speaks much English, but their joy in winning was apparent. Each claimed a winner's check for $10,000.
"He ran a good race," Kenyan Julius Kogo, who finished third in 28:47, said of Nebebew. "He's just a young guy."
Nebebew finished fifth at the 10,000-meter Steve Prefontaine Classic in Eugene, Ore., last year in 27:14, but was not able to approach that time on Saturday. His time of 28:39 ranked just 25th in Bridge Run history, well off the record of 27:40 set by Kenya's James Kosekei in 2000.
"It was a bit tough, but the competition was very good," said Kogo, who finished second last year. "It was nice at the start, but on the bridge it was somewhat windy. The weather was perfect for running, but I don't know what happened. They didn't run a very good time."
The elite female runners, on the other hand, turned in one of the better performances in Bridge Run history. Gebru's time of 32:14 is the 13th-best since the Bridge Run started in 1978.
"The conditions weren't bad, but it was slightly windy," said Allison Grace Morgan of Lexington, Ky., who was the top American female finisher in 34:31, good for eighth place overall.
"I feel like it might have been hotter than it has been in recent years, but I don't think that affected me too much."
Charleston's Michael Banks was the top male American finisher and also won the Marcus Newberry Award as the top local runner with a time of 30:19. Caitlin Judd, also from Charleston, won the Newberry Award for females in 38:10.
Jeff Nolan of Summerville won the Terry Hamlin Mobility Impaired Award in 43:48. He lost his left leg after a 2003 accident in which a 3,000-pound piece of machinery fell on his legs.
Alexandre Dupont of Clarenceville, Canada, won the men's wheelchair division for the third straight year and Cassie Mitchell of Atlanta was the female winner.
An unofficial total of 31,809 runners and walkers finished the race, a slight bump up from last year's 31,449 but well off the record of 36,652 finishers in 2012.
With increased security measures in place this year, the start of the race on Coleman Boulevard in Mount Pleasant went off smoothly at 8 a.m. By the time the elite runners reached the Shem Creek Bridge, a lead group of about 12 had separated itself, led by Kenyan Cleophas Ngetich, who wound up seventh in 29:14.
Ndirganu, who won the Bridge Run in 2010 and 2013, took the lead as the elite runners started up the Ravenel Bridge, the 13,000-foot span over the Cooper River, and the top runners hit the 5-K mark in about 14:55.
Nebebew and Mourad Marofit, a 32-year-old from Morocco, took over the lead as the runners descended from the bridge and made the turn on to Meeting Street in downtown Charleston, and it was a two-man race from there. Nebebew sprinted away at the finish, with Marofit in second in 28:42, three seconds off the pace.
Gebru led an Ethiopian sweep of the top three places among females, with 23-year-old Etalemhu Habtewold in second and Makida Abdela, 24, in third. Caitlin Bullock, 28 and from Charlotte, was second among American women in 34:47, good for 10th overall.
Among state runners, 50-year-old Irv Batten of Summerville won the male grand masters division in 35:17, just ahead of Larry Brock of Anderson and Marc Embler of Charleston.

Meaning & Origins
Of uncertain derivation. Stacey and Stace are recorded as given names in the Middle Ages, probably pet forms of Eustace. The medieval name seems to have fallen out of use by the 16th century, and the modern given name is probably a transferred use of the surname, which is likewise derived from Eustace. It is not clear why this name should have become so common in the 1970s and 80s as a girl's name (less commonly as a boy's name).

After sentencing, Vanderwerker reiterated her hatred for her father.
"I don't love," she said. "I'll never forgive. I'll never, never forget."
Daughter Candy Horan, who did not attend the sentencing because she felt her time and money would be, "better served providing our mother with a proper burial," stated her feelings in a letter to the court.
"I love you because you are our dad and I hate you because you killed our mother," Horan stated, as read by Sprague. "Did you ever stop and think of us kids and what this would do to us? No, I think not."
Thomas Collard shook his head a couple of times during the reading of Horan's statement, in which she talked about the hope of seeing her mother again based on Collard's story that she had just run away.
"What fools we were," Horan stated. "I believe that I will never get the answers, or that I will believe those answers ... (I) hope you don't have another day or another second of joy in your life."
Sprague then spoke on behalf of the state.
"He was a bully, he was good at it, and he liked it," Sprague said about Collard, who momentarily looked toward the section where Vanderwerker was seated. "There is not one redeeming quality about the defendant."
Sprague also gave the court a glimpse of the evidence the state had collected, saying that the confession Collard gave to the court about the murder was inaccurate.
"The cause of death was determined to be anywhere between three and six blunt-force traumas to the head," Sprague said, afterwards stating, "We had forensic pathologists look at the skull and that is one of many things that would have come out with a trial."
Sprague then offered her recommendation based on the family's input.

The Sad Fate of Uncle Teaspoon
Posted by Erin under Daily Life
[3] Comments
It was really hard to get out the door to church this morning. Well, we got out the door, but one of us was crumpled on the sidewalk, sobbing over the sad and unexpected fate of Uncle Teaspoon. She was unpersuadable for quite some time. None of the other spoons could console her.
Abi had a plastic cup full of plastic spoons of different sizes and colors, and I'd given her permission to take it in the car. These spoons were, of course, an entire family: babies, parents, brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles. Just before we left, she stuck another favorite spoon into the cup, a metal measuring spoon that I immediately removed on our way out the door because I didn't want it to get lost. It took awhile for me to figure out why she was so heartbroken. "I want uncle to come," she wailed, again and again. Uncle? Who was uncle? Oh. Right. The teaspoon.
We told her she didn't need it. We told her Uncle Teaspoon wanted to stay home. We told her he needed to stay and get lunch ready for the other spoons. He wanted to watch over the house while we were gone. Abigail was having none of it at first, but finally she calmed enough for me to wipe her tears and put her in her carseat. "Can Uncle Teaspoon come with us now, mommy? Please?" she asked.
"No. I told you. Uncle Teaspoon wants to stay home and and make spoon lunch."
Her dad started the car. "I am really appreciating the absurdity of this conversation," he said.
Abi resigned herself to the situation and played with her other spoons.

Athlete's foot is an infection called tinea pedis caused when various types of fungus invade the skin. It usually occurs between the toes, but can also be found on the bottom of the foot, and is highly contagious. It can spread to other parts of the body, can cause jock itch, and can affect your toenails.
You may have athlete's foot if you have any one or combination of these symptoms: itching, burning, scaling, redness, cracking or discomfort.
Athlete's foot is most commonly transmitted through contact with an infected person or an object that has fungus on it. Walking barefoot in locker rooms, public pools or shower areas may increase the risk of getting athlete's foot.

How to finally make the decision to build your house from the ground up.
At some point in your working life, there comes a time when you want to buy a house that you can call your own. Now although the type of house depends on a bunch of factors, mainly how much money you have for a down payment and how much you can afford to spend monthly, you still want to have a custom home built from scratch.
I mean this is essentially the dream, to build your own custom home from scratch, and still have money left over to live on. Sure we can go crazy and build a home that will make the neighbors green with envy. However, we want a home that is both luxurious and one that doesn't break the bank.
This would be our 3rd home, and we wanted to make sure that we had a builder create the exact home to our specifications. This meant that we had to scour the country side to find the perfect builder that would develop the exact home we wanted.
Now this search for a home builder that would meet our needs, was not an easy task. We began by searching for the local builders in our area to get a feel for the types of homes they built and also see if they were in our price range.
The next step, was to contact all of the builders that meet our criteria and schedule a meeting. We narrowed our list of potential builders to 4. So the first step was to set up a meeting with them to determine if we were all on the same page.
I mean, building our dream home was not a small undertaking, and one that we did not want to take lightly.
Our first meeting with builder number 1, went very fast, as their customer service was horrible and we left their office after 10 minutes.
The 2nd builder on our list, was very professional and very high-end. At first they appeared to come off as somewhat high and mighty, looking down at us as we only wanted a 2500 sq ft house with minimal granite and fixtures.
These guys were only interested in building $600,000 plus houses that would exceed 3,000 sq ft. So this was a major turn off for us, so we scratched them off our list and moved onto builder number 3.
This builder in Edmond Oklahoma by the name of The Roberts Group, was in a league all their own.
From the moment that we placed a call with them to schedule a meeting, we felt very comfortable with the superintendents and the sales people were never pushy.
In addition, we felt like they were going out of their way to make sure that we felt a sense of pride in everything that they do, and that they work with all types of income brackets. Wow what a breath of fresh air this was.
So after our initial meeting, we decide to go drive out and look at some of the model homes where we could get a sense of what our completed home would like like. These homes were absolutely beautiful both on the inside and out. The craftsmanship was super high quality and as soon as we walked into the home, all the outside noise was silent.
These homes built by The Roberts Group are very well constructed and you can feel that as soon as you tour the house. Well we knew that this was the builder for us, so our nest step in the process was to speak with their architect and see what types of designs they had in mind.
Since we already had our blueprints from our personal architect, we asked their architect if he could just use our existing plans. Of course, was his answer. They were able to take our plans and modify certain areas to fit our new concept and the results were awesome.

US-based music streaming service Rdio comes to the UK to challenge Spotify with unlimited ad-free music over the web and a host of smartphone and desktop apps
On a day in which Spotify felt it might increase its dominance of the UK market with the launch of a beautiful new iPad app, one of its key Stateside competitors has crossed the Atlantic intent on stealing listeners away.
The US-based Rdio service, owned by the creators of Skype, brings unlimited ad-free access to millions of tracks through web-browsers, desktop apps for Mac and PC and smartphone and tablet apps for the iPhone, iPad and Android.
Rdio, like Spotify allows users to listen to a certain amount of music free every month without committing to a subscription and those tunes will also be free of commerical interruption.
However if you want to go beyond that unspecified free listening period (once a green bar within the browser app runs dry you're out, there's no hourly limit) you'll need to subscribe to one of the two available packages if you want to keep listening.
For £4.99 a month you can get unlimited music through the browser and PC apps, but for a tenner you can unlock mobile apps and integration with streaming devices from Roku and Sonos. Those prices mirror Spotify's offering, but Spotify cannot offer a web-based listening experience.
Rdio's arrival in the UK (and France) has come with no official fanfare whatsoever, but we've been able to access the service and the relevant apps have already appeared in the App Store and on Google Play. Look out, Spotify.
You can start listening now at Rdio.com.

Upated 5x with tons of video at 11:51 PM: Very briefly: Red Wings goaltender Jimmy Howard was nothing less than a superstar and the Detroit Red Wings played, well...Ugly hockey on Thursday night, mucking, grinding and just plain old out-working the Chicago Blackhawks en route to a 2-0 win and taking 3-1 series lead heading into Game 5 on Saturday. Howard earned the shutout on 28 saes.

Red Wings prospect news: Griffins prepare for Western Conference Finals; training camp tix news
by George Malik on 05/23/13 at 04:00 PM ET
Comments (1)
While the Red Wings are preparing to battle the Chicago Blackhawks tonight, the Wings' AHL affiliate, the Grand Rapids Griffins, are preparing to host the Oklahoma City Barons in the first two games of the AHL's Western Conference Finals, which willt ake place at Van Andel Arena on Friday and Saturday night.
As the Detroit News's Ted Kulfan notes, the Wings players who spent the first half of their 2012-2013 season in Grand Rapids before joining the parent club for its 2013 campaign aren't surprised by the Griffins' post-season success...
"They have a good team, and the older guys are making a difference," said Andersson, noting veterans such as Jeff Hoggan, Nathan Paetsch and Brennan Evans. "In the American League there are so many young guys and teams, you need good leadership."
The Griffins open the conference finals against Oklahoma City on Friday at Van Andel Arena.
"I still talk to a lot of guys down there, I keep track of them for sure," said Nyquist, who was the team's leading scorer (60 points) while playing 58 games in Grand Rapids. "Guys have taken on bigger roles and the veterans have done a great job."

Chicago And Detroit Ready For Game 4
by Paul on 05/23/13 at 01:05 PM ET
Comments (6)
from Mark Lazerus of the Chicago Sun-Times,
Toews was indeed smiling, and most of the Hawks seemed to be in a rather good mood after an unusually focused morning skate at Joe Louis Arena. If the pressure's mounting, they weren't showing it.
"Our group's been fine. We're definitely disappointed, we haven't been in this position all year. We've quietly gone about our business and [they've] gotten our attention over the last couple of games. The focus has got to be in the right place. We want to play our best game of the year tonight, and we're going to need it."
After a disastrous Game 2, the Hawks felt they played a strong game in Game 3, particularly in the third period. The way they see it, if a break or two had gone their way, they'd be the team up 2-1 in the series. Of course, they're not. And the fact that one of their better efforts wasn't good enough to beat the surging Red Wings might not have damaged the Hawks' confidence, but it certainly boosted Detroit's.
"It shows that we have a lot of confidence and we're playing close to our best hockey right now, and that's what we want to keep doing," said defenseman Brendan Smith. "I think we've still got to work on a few things. I don't think we've played a full 60 minutes and that's something we're going to need to do tonight, because we all know Chicago's going to come out blazing. It's such an important game. Seems like every game gets more important -- it's unbelievable how that works. They're going to up their ante and we're going to have to do the same."

Wings Loaded With Homegrown Talent
by Paul on 05/23/13 at 09:56 AM ET
Comments (13)
from Cam Cole of the Vancouver Sun,
There is something vaguely unfair about the Detroit Red Wings.
The lineup they iced for Game 3 of their Western Conference semifinal series against Chicago on Monday had 15 players who were either their own draft picks or who were Red Wings property before anyone else got them.
That's 15 out of 20, and if forward Darren Helm and defenceman Danny DeKeyser were healthy, the number would be higher.
This, despite having not had a top-10 pick in the draft since 1991 (Marty Lapointe), and only two inside the top 20 in the 22 seasons since then - in each of which, by the way, the Red Wings have made the playoffs.
Oh, and just to rub it in a little, the Wings' system includes the NCAA college defence-men of the year in the CCHA (DeKeyser) and WCHA (Nick Jensen), the top defenceman in the Canadian Hockey League (Ryan Sproule) and one of the QMJHL's two or three best rearguards, Xavier Ouellet.

Red Wings-Blackhawks Game 4 set-up: Wings must calmly rebuff Hawks' best efforts
by George Malik on 05/23/13 at 03:08 AM ET
Comments (8)
The Detroit Red Wings face off against the Chicago Blackhawks tonight (8 PM EDT, NBCSN/CBC/97.1 FM, and FSD will air a post-game show; tonight is also the "Fill a Boot" night fundraiser to help the family of Dearborn firefighter Brian Wohlke) knowing that "things will move pretty fast" from here on out. Starting with Game 4 this evening, this series will switch to the familiar play-every-other-day format, with Games 5, 6 and 7 scheduled to take place on Saturday (8 PM, NBC), next Monday and Wednesday...
So the two-day breaks' worth of bluster will soon be behind us (there were two practice posts, an evening multimedia post, injury updates and multiple discussions of the Wings' rebuilding-on-the-fly status for a reason; for the record, it's going to get up to 60 today with scattered showers, but the low for tonight's forecasted at 37 degrees, so the ice should be much better at the Joe, too), but Wednesday's practice chatter did end in something of a flourish from Chicago, where the Hawks still insist that they must play "angry," and where Joel Quenneville's decided to jump-start his power play and his team's scoring by adding Bryan Bickell as a net-front presence and prescribing more Andrew Shaw to get in Jimmy Howard's grill, respectively.
The Hawks didn't absolutely insist that the series will head to Chicago tied 2-2, but they came pretty close while speaking with Comcast Sportsnet Chicago's Tracey Myers...

Holland, Babcock and the Red Wings' players discuss 'rebuilding on the fly'
by George Malik on 05/22/13 at 11:10 PM ET
Comments (10)
Over the course of the both the Red Wings-Ducks and Red Wings-Blackhawks series, Ken Holland and Mike Babcock's roles on Detroit's "rebuilding on the fly" season (which, as the Oakland Press's Pat Caputo noted this afternoon, does not involve tanking to be bad enough for long enough to stockpile high draft picks like the Blackhawks did), and with the Grand Rapids Griffins advancing to the AHL's Western Conference Finals, Martin Frk dazzling at the Memorial Cup and the team adding to its stockpile of drafted prospects by bringing over Calle Jarnkrok (temporarily), Teemu Pulkkinen (permanently) and signing Nick Jensen and Mattias Backman recently (and adding free agents like Damien Brunner and the rapidly-headling Danny DeKeyser hasn't hurt, either)...
The Wings' NHL and AHL rosters don't necessarily lack talent or depth, though they're certainly not the Blackhawks.
Now the story about Mike Babcock heading to Anaheim instead of succeeding Scotty Bowman isn't necessarily as gruff as Ken Holland told the AP's Larry Lage earlier today--Babcock was coaching the AHL's Cincinnati Mighty Ducks in the 2001-2002 season, and when Babcock approached Holland stating that he wanted to coach the Wings, Holland told Babcock that he simply couldn't hire a coach with no experience as opposed to stating that the team "doesn't hire interns"...

Red Wings evening multimedia: spotlighting Patrick Eaves and previewing Game 4
by George Malik on 05/22/13 at 10:29 PM ET
Comments (1)
The Detroit Sports Broadcasters Association named Patrick Eaves their nominee for the Masterton Trophy, which recognizes perseverance and dedication to hockey, because Eaves successfully recovered from a concussion that consumed 13 months of his professional career.
I don't think that anyone, including the Red Wings, imagined that Eaves would have become so invaluable to the team's penalty-killing or provide such no-frills defensive play that he'd be bumping Todd Bertuzzi and Jordin Tootoo out of the team's playoff lineup, but he's doing just that, and WXYZ's Tom Leyden penned a story about and filed a video profile of Eaves earlier this evening:

Skyline (Sammamish, Wash.) senior quarterback Max Browne's success is built upon a belief in himself.
But Browne doubted his own eyes Tuesday morning when Seahawks rookie Russell Wilson ambushed him with news that he had been named the 2012-13 Gatorade National Football Player of the Year.
"Talk about having to pinch yourself," Browne said. "This was a complete surprise. I knew this award was still out there, but there are obviously some great players out there, too. I'm very fortunate because I was in some big-time company competing for this."
MORE: Browne on Fantasy Football, USC and Skateboarding
Browne joins the likes of Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith and future Hall of Famer Peyton Manning as Gatorade National Football Players of the Year.
The Gatorade Player of the Year program recognizes outstanding athletic excellence as well as high standards of academic achievement and exemplary character demonstrated on and off the field. Rated the nation's No. 1 quarterback prospect by multiple recruiting services, Browne is now a finalist for the Gatorade Male High School Athlete of the Year award
Browne, a 6-foot-5, 218-pound senior quarterback who has committed to USC, led the Spartans to a 14-0 record and a second straight Class 4A state championship this fall. Browne passed for 4,526 yards, 49 touchdowns and just five interceptions.
MORE: Prove Yourself, Enter to Win an iPad
"This is a very prestigious award and Max is a very deserving winner," Wilson said. "Gatorade found a great human being and great football player here. I'm just glad I could be here to share the moment with him."
A two-time Gatorade State Player of the Year, Browne broke the state record for career passing yards (12,953) and completions (882) during his senior campaign. He surpassed Detroit Lions quarterback and 2006-07 Gatorade Washington Player of the Year Kellen Moore for the completions mark.
MORE: Gatorade State Football Players of the Year
"If there is a better high school quarterback in the country, I'd like to see him," said Bothell coach Tom Bainter, whose team lost to Skyline, 33-21, this year. "He is way better than even his stats describe. He plays the game the right way, displaying sportsmanship and humbleness that is both appreciated and admirable."
Browne has maintained a 3.50 GPA. A three-time Skyline High Student of the Month Citizenship Award recipient, he has volunteered on behalf of Issaquah Parks and Recreation, the Sammamish/Issaquah Young Life ministry and as an intern with G2 Physical Therapy. He has also worked with Generation Joy and helped raise funds to benefit cancer research.
WATCH: Wilson Surprises Browne
Browne will graduate early to begin attending classes at USC during the upcoming spring semester.
Browne becomes the second football player from Washington to earn the national award, joining former Puyallup star Brock Huard, who won in 1994-95. Browne also becomes Washington's sixth overall Gatorade National Player of the Year regardless of sport since the program was established in 1985.
California has produced the most national winners in program history with 58, followed by Texas (27) and Florida (19).

Since January 13th, the DPD crime map shows there have been 10 burglaries in the Cory-Merrill neighborhood located just east of Washington Park, including break-ins at two churches.
A business manager for Saint Vincent de Paul Church says they discovered at least $2,000 in property damage, but he says burglars didn't get more than $5-10 cash.
Similarly, Holy Protection of the Mother of God Byzantine Catholic Church had property damage, but only discovered roughly $90 missing from collection boxes.
Homeowners in the area weren't so fortunate.
"This is the back door that was kicked in," said Andrew Newcomb as he showed the damage to FOX31 Denver.
It has been about a month since Newcomb came home from work to find he'd been a target of a pretty bold break-in.
"My firearms were hidden in an attic, so it wasn't something that was easily accessible," Newcomb said. "They looked for them, and found them."
Despite losing a few thousand dollars worth of firearms and electronics, Newcomb says he's simply glad nobody was home, especially considering where his back door leads.
"It's to one of my children's rooms, so that's really concerning," he said.
The ten break-ins across the Cory-Merrill Neighborhood since mid-January have had the attention of police as well.
"Burglars are pattern offenders. They tend to come into an area or a neighborhood and they just start hitting businesses after businesses or home after home," said DPD spokesman Sonny Jackson.
According to DPD, officers did arrest an unidentified suspect last week, which could help break that pattern. Despite the arrest, it appears there might have been an additional break-in last week.
"Just because we make an arrest of one doesn't mean the problem is going to stop," Jackson said. "So we tell people to be our best eyes and ears out there. Look out for your neighbor. "
Despite signs throughout the area for a local neighborhood watch group, that is one area where neighbors say they could all improve.
"We used to have a great neighborhood watch," Said Terry Danielson, who lives near Newcomb. "I had everybody's phone number. Everybody else had mine. Now we don't see that anymore."
"The neighbors just don't know each other very well," Newcomb said.
It's something they'd like to change, to prevent it from happening again.
"I don't think you can get any of the things back but it would be nice to see some justice," he said.

2008: Israeli intelligence believes that
Iran might have its Russian S-300 surface-to-air missile systems in service by
the end of the year. Russia has been preparing to ship the missile systems to
Iran for over a year now. Iranian troops have been training to operate the
S-300, and Russian air defense experts have been showing the Iranians how to get
the most out of these surface-to-air (SAM) systems, especially if attacked by
Western (especially U.S. or Israeli) aircraft.
equivalent to the U.S. Patriot, the Russian built S-300 was known as the SA-10
to NATO, when the system first appeared in the early 1980s. The latest version
is called the SA-20. S-300 missiles weigh 1.8 tons each and are 26 feet long
and about 20 inches in diameter. The missiles have a range of some 200
kilometers and can hit targets as high as 100,000 feet. The missile has a 320
pound warhead.
Israel has
been preparing to deal with the Iranian S-300s, including practicing against
S-300s operated by the Greek armed forces. The S-300 has never had any combat
experience, although it looks good on paper. Russia has done a lot of realistic
testing of the S-300, but never had it confront a Western air force possessing
equipment designed to defeat the Russian system. So developments in Iran are
being watched closely by air defense experts around the globe.
Russia has
already delivered dozens of shorter range surface-to-air missile systems, which
can be used to defend specific facilities.

Next stop on D-backs' trip: San Francisco
APR 21, 2013 11:34p ET
The last time the Giants won the World Series, in 2010, the D-backs surprised the baseball world winning the NL West the next year. The Giants have been the D-backs' toughest opponent in the 16-year history of the franchise, winning 133 of the 240 games, although the teams have split the series series the past two years, going 9-9 each time.
Pitching matchups: Monday -- LHP Wade Miley (2-0, 2.79 ERA) vs. RHP Ryan Vogelsong (1-1, 5.89). Tuesday -- LHP Patrick Corbin (2-0, 1.42) vs. RHP Matt Cain (0-2, 7.15). Wednesday -- RHP Ian Kennedy (1-2, 5.47) vs. LHP Madison Bumgarner (3-0, 2.05)
Who's hot for the D-backs: Didi Gregorius has two home runs in his three starts since being recalled from Class AAA Reno last Tuesday. He has six hits in his first 11 major league at-bats. ... Cody Ross has eight hits in his last 25 at-bats. ... Eric Chavez drove in five of the D-backs' 20 runs in the first six games of the road trip. ... Patrick Corbin has given up three earned runs in his first 19 innings, and he made two quality starts against the Giants last season. ... Setup man Matt Reynolds has not given up a run in his first eight appearances.
Who's not hot for the D-backs: Martin Prado has four hits in his last 29 at-bats. ... Gerardo Parra's game-deciding sacrifice fly in the ninth inning Sunday was his first RBI since April 6, covering 62 plate appearances. ... Miguel Montero has two hits in his last 22 at-bats. ... Cliff Pennington has three hits in his last 23 at-bats.
Who's hot for the Giants: Sergio Romo has carried his end-of-game success in the 2012 playoffs into the new season, converting eight of his first nine save chances in his first season as the full-time closer. ... Brandon Crawford is hitting .375 in the last 10 games. ... World Series hero Pablo Sandoval has 17 RBIs, seven in the last five games. ... Madison Bumgarner has made quality starts in all four of his appearances, and he has not given up more than two runs in a game.
Who's not hot for the Giants: Matt Cain, who threw a perfect game last season, gave up nine runs to the Cardinals in his second start and seven to the Brewers in his fourth and most recent last Thursday. He has given up five homers in his last 13 innings. ... Brandon Belt is hitting .183 with 16 strikeouts in 60 at-bats.
Notes, quotes, odds and ends: The D-backs scored just 20 runs in the first six games of the road trip without middle-of-the-order bats Aaron Hill and Jason Kubel but showed their resilience by salvaging the final game of the series in New York and Colorado in their final at-bat. "You have to keep grinding and fight your way back," Ross said Sunday. ... The Giants are 6-2 at home, having swept series from the Rockies and Padres after losing two of three to their 2012 NLCS opponent, the Cardinals. ... A.J. Pollock leads the National League with nine doubles. ... The D-backs are 6-0 in the final game of a series this season. "Getaway wins are awesome, but it would be nice to steal the first ones, too," Ross said. ... The Giants' have the longest active streak of home sellouts in the majors at 171. The 820-game streak at Boston's Fenway Park, the longest in any major professional sport, ended April 10.

MASSENA Several participants in Saturdays 15th annual Ted Kot Youth Fishing Day reported seeing a large muskie swimming by their lines along the shores of the New York Power Authoritys Hawkins Point Visitors Center.
But that was as close as anybody got to an actual fish.
For the first time in recent memory, the 55 anglers came up empty-handed during the three-hour event, which was held under windy, gray skies and in chilly temperatures.
Early in the morning it was rainy, windy and cold. The numbers were down a little from last year. However, the kids, I think, had a truly remarkable, fun day. I think parents, grandparents and all the family members enjoyed it as well, Recreation Director Richard A. Boprey said.
Tyler Cappiello did catch a 2-pound, 5-ounce fish that was quickly weighed and promptly put back in the water because it was out of season and not eligible for the competition.
They were reminded that they were out-of-season fish and not to be kept at any time. The fish was not harmed in any manner, Mr. Boprey said.
Several other youth and adult anglers reported seeing the muskie swimming up and down the shoreline, getting within inches of some lines dangling in the water, but declining to take a nibble. Adults were able to participate thanks to a Free Fishing Day authorized by the Department of Environmental Conservation.
The kids were treated and taunted by the approximately 50-pound muskie that kept swimming from shore back and forth, Mr. Boprey said.
This was Felicity Engstroms second time participating in the youth fishing day sponsored by the Massena Recreation Commission. But it was a far cry from her last fishing trip. I went fishing last Sunday. We caught 57 bullhead, she said.
Young anglers and the adults who accompanied them to the event did nab a prize; each participant was entered into a drawing for door prizes throughout the day. The prizes ranged from fishing poles to tackle boxes. If any fish had been caught, awards were set to be handed out to the first, second and third heaviest, live, in-season fish for ages 4 to 9 and 10 to 15.
They also reeled in a free hot dog and soda, courtesy of the Massena Recreation Commission and thanks to the support of organizations such as Massena Savings and Loan, Pepsi, Amvets Post 4, the Massena Rod and Gun Club, SeaComm Federal Credit Union and the Italian-American Club.
This was the third year that the event, which is named in honor of the longtime former member of the Massena Joint Recreation Commission, has been held at Hawkins Point.
The top finishers among 72 participants in 2012, the first year at Hawkins Point, were Wade Smith, competing in the 5-9 age group, who hauled in a 15 pound, 13 ounce carp; while Dakota Wilson, fishing in the 10-15 age group, won a battle against a 10 pound, 13 ounce drum fish.
Ninety participants took part in last years event. The catch of the day went to Jestin Simpson, who reeled in a 4 pound, 11 ounce fish. Also bringing in a fish for weigh-in were Jacob Leabo, whose catch weighed 3 pounds, 15 ounces; Addalynn Perrin, whose catch weighed 1 pound, 12 ounces; and Seth Gilbert, whose catch weighed 1 pound, 9 ounces.

A fitting commemoration to Victorian naturalist Alfred Russel Wallace ends a year of celebration.
On the final day of a series of events to mark the life of the great naturalist, Sir David Attenborough and comedian Bill Bailey unveiled the world's first statue of Alfred Russel Wallace yesterday.
It comes on the 100th anniversary of the forgotten scientist's death and ends the Museum's Wallace100 celebrations.
Wallace, who co-founded the theory of evolution by natural selection, was often overshadowed by his more famous colleague, Charles Darwin.
The statue shows Wallace in his thirties in the field with a butterfly net during his expedition to the Malay Archipelago. It captures the moment he first saw the magnificent golden birdwing butterfly, Ornithoptera croesus, an event so exciting, he describes having a headache for the rest of the day.
Wallace admirers, Bill Bailey and Sir David Attenborough at the final Wallace100 event this week.
Fellow naturalist Sir David Attenborough said, 'Wallace was an admirable man, a modest man, a tough man and a great scientist and I am truly privileged to unveil the statue of this great man.'
Bill Bailey, who is Patron of the Wallace Memorial Fund, added, 'He never lost his sense of awe and appreciation and love for the natural world. Feelings I have also and which are replenished every time I come to the Museum.'
Richard Wallace, Alfred's grandson, who was at the unveiling, said, 'He was a modest man, he'd be slightly amused by all this!'
Sir David went on to deliver the tenth and final lecture in the series of Wallace100 events, focusing on birds of paradise, one of Wallace's specialities.
The statue will stand in the Darwin Centre for a short time and will then take up permanent residence outside, between the Darwin Centre and the Wildlife Garden.
Doing what he loved best: Alfred Russel Wallace depicted out in the field in southeast Asia, a time he regarded as the defining period of his life.

Artezin Mendocino Zinfandel 2007
Zinfandel from North Coast, California
Winemaker's Notes
A blend of 91% Zinfandel and 9% Petite Syrah.
Ruby red and purple in hue, this wine has aromas of ripe red fruit, with hints of sage, cinnamon and pepper. The fruit flavors flesh out on the palate, dominated by raspberry, boysenberry and red cherry, complemented by hints of nutmeg, rosemary and spice, for a classic varietal character. Soft, supple tannins create a firm, yet lush mouthfeel. With its bright fruit-forward flavor profile, this wine is created for immediate enjoyment.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Enthusiast - "A fine Zinfandel, rich and briary, with wild forest flavors of black and blue berries, Asian spices, tangerine zest and smoky sandalwood. Full-bodied and dry, it's nice now and for the next few years."
Artezin Winery
Artezin Zinfandel is hand crafted from grapes grown in some of California's best Zinfandel regions: Napa Valley, Amador County, Sonoma County and Mendocino County. Artezin expresses terroir and rich varietal fruit with lively and complex elegance. View all Artezin Wines
About North Coast
Beyond Napa and Sonoma in the north you find a couple of other counties producing great wine. Among these are Mendocino and Lake County. The northernmost California winegrowing regions, these two counties are right above Napa and Sonoma, geographically. Yet, wine-wise they are very different – both from their southern neighbors and from each other.
Notable FactsMendocino has a high amount of organic vintners and vines. The first winery to settle here was Fetzer, which practices organic viticulture and holds some of the most vineyard land in the area. Mendocino has many pockets of micro-climates while Lake County, being smaller in size, is less diverse climactically. As for the grapes, Chardonnay is the most popular in both counties, but there are also some excellent Sauvignon Blancs, particularly in the Lake County. In red wine, Zinfandel leads the way, followed by Rhone Blends and Petite Sirah. The reds in both counties are complex and sumptuous. Anderson Valley is a sub-AVA of Mendicino and is quite well known for its excellent cool climate, producing the delicious Roederer Estate sparkling wines and some wonderful cool-climate 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.

Dark Cherry flavor, very smoothjack hunter - Miami, FL55/1/2009This was so good I saved the label and sought out the place to buy more!
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.

Lancaster County Republicans welcome Matt Moore, the new chair of the S.C. Republican Party. Moore replaces Chad Connelly, who just took a role at the Republican National Committee.
My name is Caroline Howey and I am doing an internship with the Lancaster County Partners for Youth Foundation, and assisting with the Office of Research and Development at the school district.
During my work here, I learned of the work of the Coalition for Healthy Youth, a network of public, private, civic, and faith-based representatives focused on preventing underage drinking and drug use within the county.
Death isn't cheap these days. Critics say regulations of South Carolina's funeral industry block competition for those who want to buy an inexpensive casket. But they likely won't get a sympathetic ear from a state lawmaker/funeral director who has successfully pushed funeral-related bills in recent years.
Jon Butzon is a big guy and he has some big ideas about how we can fix education in South Carolina. He should know because for years he's run the Charleston Education Network – he's seen it, lived it and thought about it. He knows where we are as a state; he knows what works and, most importantly, what doesn't work.
Hope is a curious thing. It's about looking forward to something positive and refusing to give up. It's about persisting in the face of adversity, even when the odds and the facts seem to be working against you. It's about creating positive energy that can nourish both body and soul.
Did you know that taxpayers are helping to fund a nonprofit business enterprise whose attorneys lobby the Statehouse while this business directs and dictates public policies to South Carolina's county councils? This practice creates a conflict because taxpayer funds are being spent to lobby for an agenda that taxpayers cannot vote on and for policy positions that might not be supported by taxpayers. This business enterprise is the S.C. Association of Counties (SCAC).
"I was tired, but it was a different kind of tired. This kind of tired comes from day after day of constant caregiving with no end in sight – with no hope and no one to care. Respite allowed me to be with people who care and realize that some people understand what caregivers are going through."
Our government is run by immoral and dishonest figures who pursue policies and actions designed to ruin America. It's a war waged on America, sadly, from the inside.
Sinister and destructive actions of America's leadership, including the behavior of political parties, but especially the radical left, the mainstream media, the White House and President Barack Obama are leading to our demise.
The nation learned in May that the Justice Department secretly obtained the phone records of more than 100 Associated Press reporters and monitored Fox News reporter James Rosen's personal email and cell phone records, branding him a "possible co-conspirator" in a classified leak case for asking questions to a government source.
These revelations sent shock waves throughout newsrooms nationwide. Reporters can no longer assure their sources that interviews will remain confidential because there is no way to tell whether the government is listening.
There are few things that bring me more pleasure as chairman of the S.C. Republican Party than praising our state's elected officials for focusing on truly meaningful reforms. Recently, members of our state Senate did just that.
For more than a decade, school choice has been a big part of the national dialogue on education reform. In fact, 22 other states currently have school choice programs. That number is growing year after year.

After searching for a small town, Laura Gaylord moved to Elkin two years ago with her husband Raymond, whom she calls "Duke," and their son David.
Originally from Ohio, Gaylord moved to South Florida in middle school and studied fine arts at the Florida Atlantic University. As a military wife, she moved with her husband and David, who is in 10th grade at Elkin High School, to Kansas, Virginia, Hawaii, Missouri and North Carolina before retiring to Elkin.
"We had always lived in a larger city. The lifestyles were so fast paced and schools were overcrowded," said Elkin's new Main Street and Community Manager. "We wanted to find a place where we could relax. When we found Elkin, we loved it. My son thought it was great that people he didn't even know waved at him."
The thing that most intrigued Gaylord about Elkin was its downtown.
"Whenever we would look at a town, we would always look for the downtown," Gaylord said. "It's a signature of the people that live there and the town. When I saw Elkin's downtown I saw so much potential and could feel the excitement of the people here."
Her passion for the area led her to apply for the Main Street and Community Manager, and her first day in the position was Monday, Sept. 10.
"I initially didn't think anything about applying until people started suggesting to me that I did," Gaylord said. "Then I started thinking about all the business owners I knew and decided to apply. I'm very passionate about Elkin and interested in helping create a vision for the town's future."
Gaylord's love for Elkin can be seen through her website, WhatsUpElkinNC.com.
"The more I learned about the town, and the more people I met after moving here, I knew I had to brag about the town," she said. "So I created the website to show off everything in this area. This is the perfect area for people to stop going down I-77 on trips, or a great weekend getaway for people in North Carolina, South Carolina or Virginia."
Along with WhatsUpElkinNC.com, Gaylord is also active with the Community Choir and Foothills Arts Council. As a photographer and painter, Gaylord's work has been showcased at the Arts Council and she also teaches after school art classes.
Since starting as the Main Street and Community Manager last Monday, Gaylord has been making lists of ideas she has for the town.
"I've been taking notes all week. I want to get small things accomplished that sometimes get lost, such as aesthetics and presentation downtown," she said. "I look forward to working with the different boards and seeing what their passions are."

a few weeks ago, i got to spend a lovely sunny (well mostly sunny) afternoon in the mountains of ga, running around an apple orchard with this super fun couple! my hope during every session is capture different emotions, because love has many forms, oh why yes! There's joyful, animated, peaceful, silly, quiet, intense. sarah + john picked up on vibe, and rocked single one them. plus, there were tons apples play with, which makes it that much more fun.;)
Sarah + John, the first thing I noticed, and (LOVED) about you both was how relaxed and chill you were - you both were so go with the flow and made walking around the apple orchards & taking photos so much fun. Thanks for being great, and I can't wait til the wedding!!
Much joy!
Sarah says:
They're wonderful! :) thank y'all SO much for making the vision a reality!(11.14.11 @ 07:22 AM)
