great capture and so peaceful..
Beautiful picture! Everything is so still and tranquil.
Thank you again for your kind words. This particular morning I had the lake to myself, not a soul in sight.
No problem, there's nothing I could think of to say negatively. Well then I hope there was a nice place to sit and relax. The view is great and I can imagine that the air is so clean there.

I'm transferring an .mov file from computer 1 to computer 2 via flash drive. File plays on comp 1. It doesn't on comp 2, but other .mov files play on comp 2. Any suggestions?
1) MOV is a generic file container. What compresion formats are used in the non-playing file and is computer 2 configured to play these formats?
2) In what format is the flash drive formatted and how large is the non-playing source file? (I.e., some disk formats have restrictions on the file size being copied.)

I sold Facebook put options when the price was near $26 a share and will look to sell $25 August put options if the price breaches under $25. Facebook has now traded lower for five days in a row, setting up a short-term technical "bounce" buy, based on historical price changes over a one-week period. For longer-term investors (basically anyone who is not a trader) it doesn't matter much. For Zynga investors, the worst of the storm has likely passed, or at least they are in the eye of the storm. After falling under $5 a share, nearly a 75% drop from trading highs as recently as March, Zynga appears to be nearing a bottom. ZNGA data by YCharts
Technically, Zynga appears poised to demonstrate a TDCombo 13 oversold indication this week. For those that don't study market timing techniques, TDCombo was developed by the legendary chart analyst Tom DeMark. TDCombo isn't a signal to buy, but does strongly suggest sellers may soon reach an exhaustion level in their liquidation of shares. I will look to sell August expiration date put options the end of this week. The nose-bleed-level premium at the $4 and $4.50 strike prices is increasingly looking attractive.

SmartyPig Announces a Major Rate Cut
SmartyPig just announced a big rate cut that will take effect on December 9, 2011. The yield will be slashed from 1.10% to 0.70% for balances up to $50K. The rate will remain the same (0.50%) for balances over $50K. Hat tip to reader carnholio who posted this news in the forum.
This news was announced on the SmartyPig blog in a post by Jon Gaskell, SmartyPig co-founder and president. Here is the explanation for the rate reduction:
Interest rates on deposit accounts at many banks have been declining over the past year due to poor market conditions. Likewise, the rate on your SmartyPig savings account is being reduced as a result of these same economic conditions.
The blog post also emphasized SmartyPig's cash-back options and how SmartyPig helps encourage saving instead of buying on credit:
SmartyPig remains a strong competitor in the marketplace due to our strong interest rate, no fees, and cash-back options of up to 11% from your favorite retail and travel companies. These incentives, as always, allow you to get the most money for your money when you use SmartyPig, where we help reverse the credit card mindset of "buy now, pay later."
My Take on SmartyPig's Rate Cut
First, I thank SmartyPig for being upfront with this rate cut by making it public a week before it takes effect. I wish all banks and credit unions would be this open.
I understand that SmartyPig and its partner BBVA Compass (which holds the deposits) have to adapt to the market place and this interest rate environment. However, you would think it could keep rates higher than other competitors like ING Direct and Ally Bank. In the past, SmartyPig's savings account has maintained interest rates above the rates offered by ING Direct and Ally Bank. Even after the last rate cut, the rate remained higher. After this new rate cut, SmartyPig will be way below both ING and Ally. You can see below how SmartyPig rates have declined relative to these other two internet banks:
- SmartyPig - 1.10% APY up to $50K (soon to be 0.70%)
- ING Direct - 0.90% APY
- Ally Bank - 0.89% APY
- SmartyPig - 1.10% APY up to $50K
- Ally Bank - 1.04% APY
- ING Direct - 1.00% APY
- SmartyPig - 1.75% APY up to $50K
- ING Direct - 1.10% APY
- Ally Bank - 1.09% APY
- SmartyPig - 2.15% APY up to $50K
- Ally Bank - 1.29% APY
- ING Direct - 1.10% APY
- SmartyPig - 2.01% APY
- Ally Bank - 1.59% APY
- ING Direct - 1.30% APY
Based on this history, it appears Compass is the main reason for these big rate cuts. If you look at Compass Bank CD rates, the 1-year CD APY is only 0.50% in Texas and California. Compass probably considers a 0.70% APY on a liquid account a good deal.
Compass and SmartyPig are probably hoping that the cash-back and saving features of SmartyPig will keep customers. Last year when I asked readers how important this cash-back feature was, 71% said they had no plans to use it. This same sentiment was expressed by the NYT reporter Tara Siegel Bernard who admitted that she is "not all that interested in saving for a smallish goal and then redeeming the money for a gift card." She just wants to use SmartyPig as a savings account in which interest rate is the most important feature.
I'm afraid it keeps getting harder for savers. I hope our leaders will one day be telling debtors instead of savers that they need to sacrifice for the greater good.

Malaysian consumer confidence falls
1 May 2014
KUALA LUMPUR: Consumer confidence has fallen faster in Malaysia than anywhere else in the region during the past three months a new survey has revealed.
The latest Global Survey on Consumer Confidence and Spending Intentions from the researcher Nielsen, polled some 30,000 online respondents in 60 countries. This showed that during the first quarter of 2014 the consumer confidence index in Malaysia stood at 92, a drop of six index points from the previous quarter and two points below the global average of 94.
With a baseline of 100 points and movement above and below that indicating the degree of optimism or pessimism, Malaysian consumers were clearly becoming increasingly gloomy.
Luca Griseri, head of Nielsen's financial services in Singapore and Malaysia, told The Star that the negative sentiment was
driven primarily by rising fuel and grocery prices
due to the reduction in government subsidies.
Some 39% of Malaysians cited the economy as their main worry, while 21% cited food prices and 20% job security.
Other areas that were leading to increased unease included health - up 5 percentage points (pp) to 16%, and rising utility bills (up 3 pp to 14%).
Because of this economic unease almost two thirds (64%) were saving their spare cash after covering essential living expenses and cutting back on non-essentials such as home improvement (down 4pp to 14%) and out of home entertainment (down 2pp to 16%). But, Griseri noted, they were still willing to spend on holidays.
All other countries in Southeast Asia were more optimistic, with Indonesia leading the way on a score of 124, followed by the Philippines on 116, Thailand on 108 and then Singapore and Vietnam, each on 99.
Referring to the situation in Thailand, Griseri observed that the country's "political challenges have had hardly any effect on Thai consumers, who remain generally optimistic about their financial situation".

text: Home > Medical > Meds and you > News Updated 15 February 2013 More people using internet to buy drugs Virtually any kind of illegal drug can be bought on the Internet by users who no longer need to make direct contact with dealers, said a study. 0 Test Using the wrong pills? » Quiz Addicted to pills? » Original vs generic medicine Brand-name vs generics Virtually any kind of illegal drug can be bought on the Internet by users who no longer need to make direct contact with dealers, said a published EU study. It gave no statistics on online drug sales, which are normally conducted on so-called "darknets," or anonymous computer networks. The report, compiled by the European Monitoring Center for Drugs and Drug Addiction (EMCDDA) and Europol, the pan-European police agency, said increased globalisation and communication technology made it harder to track drug routes. "Practically any type of drug can be bought on the Internet," Europol director Rob Wainwright told a briefing. "The consumers may feel that it is 'cleaner' to buy drugs without any direct contact with the drug dealer." These drugs are being moved through legitimate forms of commercial transportation - containers, aircraft and postal services, all making the drugs harder to intercept. EMCDDA director Wolfgang Goetz said drug users' behaviour was also changing. "Patterns of drug use have become more fluid, with consumers often using multiple substances or substituting one drug for another," Goetz said. Northwest Europe a major concern Europol's Wainwright said drug trafficking was the main activity of organised crime groups, providing funding for other criminal activity. The report pinpointed northwest Europe - Britain, the Netherlands, Belgium and northern France - as an area where organised crime is high, partly because of its many transport hubs, and Wainwright said the region's status as a final destination for cocaine and heroin, as well as people trafficking and illegal immigration, made it a major concern. The report recommended that the European Union work to target high-value crime groups, develop intelligence on the geographic relocation of potential criminals, interrupt money flows and create barriers to drug sales on the Internet. EU Home Affairs Commissioner Cecilia Malmstrom said ministers from the 27 member states would study the report for possible policy changes and action across the European Union. "We need to keep pace with these new developments and adapt our policies and responses to this reality," Malmstrom said. "National measures, however robust, will simply not be sufficient if implemented in isolation." The European Union is an increasingly important producer of synthetic drugs and cannabis, with mobile production units making it easy for synthetic drugs to be concealed during manufacturing. "As with synthetic drugs, there has been a trend towards producing the drug near to its intended consumers," Goetz said. "This will be a growing trend in the future." The report estimated 2 500 metric tons (2 755.8 tons) of cannabis are consumed each year in the European Union and Norway, with a retail value of 18-30 billion Euros. Malmstrom said no European-wide legalisation of cannabis is on the Commission's agenda. (Reuters Health, February 2013) Read More: 10 mistakes drug mules make Why do teens take drugs?

Mayor Mike McGinn
At a press conference this afternoon, and amid plenty of high-fives and backslapping, U.S. Attorney Jenny Durkan, Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division Thomas Perez, Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn, Seattle Police Department Chief John Diaz, and Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes discussed the agreements reached between the Department to Justice and the city of Seattle, designed to address the Seattle Police Department's use of force procedures and concerns over biased policing.
Mayor Mike McGinn
Specifically, a Memorandum of Understanding and a Settlement Agreement and Stipulated Order of Resolution, to be overseen by the court and a monitor, have been hashed out. Durkan says she expects the two agreements will act as a comprehensive blueprint for policing for next generation, and "make very strong department even stronger."
"Today is a day to discuss how will move forward into the future, together," said Perez. "Today the real work begins."
In crafting the agreements, Durkan said all sides have been focused on "one thing and one thing alone: What was the right course for the city of Seattle?"
"We all think we got it right," Durkan told the gathered media throng. "This agreement will bring meaningful, measured, and durable changes to the police department."
Saying, "This solution is a Seattle solution," Durkan highlighted key elements of the plan, including a revision of SPD's use-of-force policies and addressing biased policing and police stops through revised policies and supervision.
Speaking for the DOJ, Perez noted three goals in crafting the settlement: reducing crime, ensuring respect for the constitution and constitutional policing, and enhancing public confidence in the police department. He said those three goals are "embodied in this settlement."
McGinn harkened back to his stated goals from the start of negotiations: creating effective reform, maintain the ability to deal with existing and emerging public safety needs, and meeting the city's budget constraints. McGinn told those gathered that he believes the agreements manage to do all of above, though no specifics on the agreement's cost were provided.
Perez also stressed at least twice that the monitor created in the settlement will not supplant the role of Diaz as Seattle's police chief. He said the agreement was designed to make sure SPD has the proper policies in place and the proper training to do its job, in line with the constitution.
"Diaz is still in charge today," said Perez.
"Long after the agreement has ended, constitutional policing will endure," said Perez.
"We needed to make sure we weren't in some sort of endless loop with the monitor," said McGinn, expressing the concerns he took into negotiations. The mayor said he believes the process was able to find "a middle path."
Here's a summary of the agreement, provided today to the media and public, followed by the complete MOU and settlement:
Summary DOJ Seattle Agreements FINAL
Settlement Agreement SPD and DOJ
A special commission to evaluate the Seattle Police Department - appropriately titled the Community Police Commission, and to be appointed by Mayor McGinn - plays a large role in the deal struck between the DOJ and Seattle. Among other things, the commission will be tasked with addressing the somewhat vague yet highly troubling allegations of biased policing, along with monitoring SPD's use-of-force policies and internal investigation procedures. The commission was apparently McGinn's idea. Perez called it "a signature component" of the agreement, and said it's something he expects other cities to model in the future.
The Times described the commission earlier today:
The new commission, which will include community representatives and a member of the police department, will report its findings to a court-appointed monitor who will guide the Police Department as it carries out the reform plan, one source said. The monitor has yet to be selected.
Specific to the task of dealing with bias, which the mayor said impacts "all aspects of our life," McGinn referenced his own multicultural family and said he's dedicated to dealing with the problem. McGinn called bias "one of the most difficult and challenging issues we face in multicultural city and nation."
"This city is committed to eliminating bias," said McGinn. "It takes the commitment of the entire community and it take shared conversations."
Those conversations, apparently, will now be fostered through the newly-created commission.
"How do we police in a way that every individual is treated with dignity and respect?" said McGinn. "We needed a forum where we could have those tough conversations."
The consent decree included in the agreement also includes a clear definition of constitutes the use of force, with a source telling the Times earlier today four levels are included, covering minimal physical contact to deadly force. Originally, according to one Times' source, the city proposed defining the use of force as a "response to resistance," but that suggestion was apparently nixed.
Here's the timeline for implementation of the agreement provided today by officials from Seattle, the U.S. District Attorney's Office and the DOJ:
Timeline moving forward, beginning upon the adoption of the agreements by the court:
• 60 days: Monitor chosen jointly by City and DOJ
• 60 days: SPD develops a schedule to prioritize development and implementation of policies
• 90 days: Mayor issues Executive Order to create Community Policing Commission
• Three years: Expected term of the Memorandum of Understanding,
• Five years: Expected term of Settlement Agreement, although the City may petition the court to end agreement earlier if there have been two years of compliance.
The City and the DOJ anticipate that SPD will be in full compliance with the agreement within five years. The City may ask the court to terminate the agreement prior to that date if the City and SPD have been in full and effective compliance with the agreement for two years.
Of course, the negotiation process to get to this point was a long and at times contentious one - a fact noted by nearly everyone who took to the podium at city hall this afternoon.
"It's no secret there were a few bumps in the road to get here," said a chuckling McGinn.
"We in Seattle love our process and love heated debate," noted Durkan. "One thing we never do is lose sight of our common goals, common values, and common inspirations. ... Once we finally do reach consensus we look forward and we move forward."
"We have years of implementation work ahead of us," said McGinn of what comes next. "It's critical that we get this right."
Find our original post announcing the agreement on the following page ...
PREVIOUS POST: As had been expected by the Seattle Times, officials with the city of Seattle and the U.S. Department of Justice will announce today what's being called a "comprehensive reform plan" intended to address the findings of last year's DOJ report that concluded Seattle police regularly resort to excessive force , and included non-conclusive yet still troubling evidence of biased policing. A press conference has been scheduled for 3 p.m.
In what has been an ongoing storyline for most of the spring and summer, city of Seattle officials, led by Mayor McGinn, have been engaged in tense and sometimes contentious negotiations with the DOJ over how to respond to the DOJ's report. However, mere days before a July 31 deadline, by which the DOJ had threatened to file a lawsuit if no accord was reached, it seems the two sides have found common ground to build from.
According to the Times:
Central to the deal will be a court-appointed monitor, to be picked in the next 60 days, according to sources. The monitor will guide the department in adopting the consent decree and report to a federal judge who will oversee it.
The judge can be called upon to resolve disputes or order changes if the Police Department or city balks -- not unlike agreements reached with Los Angeles and, this week, the New Orleans Police Department.
A mayoral advisory commission on police affairs will be created, according to the Times' sources. The federal judge overseeing the consent decree is expected to get updates on the progress of the consent decrees implementation over the next several years. The Times reports this federal judge will utilize court orders if necessary to make sure things go as planned.
U.S. Attorney Jenny A. Durkan, Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division Thomas E. Perez, Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn, Seattle Police Department Chief John Diaz, and Seattle City Attorney Pete Holmes are scheduled to be involved in today's briefing, with the Times reporting consent decree expected to be officially filed in U.S. District Court at some point today as well (at least if things play out as they have in other cities facing similar situations).
We will update this post throughout the day as more information becomes available from the afternoon presser.
UPDATE: You can watch the 3 p.m. press conference below.

Missouri State Defeats Oklahoma State 69-68
The Bears improve to 2-5.
Paul Lusk is in his fifth season as Missouri State's sideline boss, and the former MVC standout player continues to impress as a head coach in the league he grew up in.
Lusk led the Bears to their first 20-win season and postseason appearance of his tenure in 2013-14 with MSU's trip to the Valley Tournament semifinals and CIT first round. This year, he returns five starters and has three seniors ready to lead the way back to the postseason for the 2015-16 season.
In 2014-15, the Bears fought through a season filled with adversity and injuries, but managed an 8-6 record at JQH Arena to complete the club's 44th straight season with a winning record at home. The Bears also finished in the top 100 of all Division I programs in home attendance for the 30th straight season.
Postseason honors in Lusk's fourth year included a pair of MVC Scholar-Athlete performers with first-team pick Austin Ruder and second-team selection Tyler McCullough -- both sophomores -- setting the pace. Junior point guard Dorrian Williams was also named to the MVC Most-Improved Team by league beat writers, and junior transfer Camyn Boone earned MSU's prestigious Coors Player of the Year honor as a newcomer.
After his third season in Springfield in 2013-14, Lusk was recognized with distinguished honors. He finished third in the MVC Coach of the Year voting and was named a finalist for the 2014 Skip Prosser Man of the Year Award. The Prosser Award is presented annually to honor those elite coaches who not only achieve success on the basketball court but who display moral integrity off of it.
Lusk's Bears played four top-10 ranked teams in his third season and parlayed that experience into manufacturing the eighth-best turnaround in the NCAA Division I ranks. MSU improved by a +9.0 margin in the span of a year, the third-best improvement in MSU history as well.
The Bears fought to find their identity at times down the stretch, but tied for fourth place overall in a competitive Missouri Valley race. All told, nine MSU opponents played postseason games in 2014-15, including four in the NCAA field, with the Bears going 7-7 against postseason clubs.
Senior Jarmar Gulley earned second-team All-MVC honors in 2014, while classmate Nathan Scheer snagged MVC Scholar-Athlete Team honors for a third straight year. Likewise, local product Austin Ruder earned MVC All-Freshman team honors after he broke the Bears' freshman 3-point record (72), making him just the fourth freshman in Valley history to score 70 or more long-range shots in a season.
MSU also advanced to the MVC Tournament semifinals for the first time since 2011, but the Bears' run in the 2014 CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament was short-lived with eventual champion Murray State clipping the Bears in come-from-behind fashion, 66-63, to end the season with a 20-13 ledger, including a 14-3 mark at JQH Arena. MSU finished 85th in the final regular-season RPI, making it the highest-rated team in Division I to not make the 2014 NIT or NCAA fields.
In 2012-13, Lusk fielded the seventh-youngest team in Division I basketball but led MSU to its 42nd straight winning record at home and the fifth-best turnover average in the nation (10.2). The Bears also set high-water marks for most games against ranked opponents with six and the best single-season scoring total for a freshman class in program history.
The rebuilding campaign saw the young club finish in the NCAA's top 200 in the final RPI and the top 100 in home attendance average, despite a final 11-22 ledger. The squad's lone senior Anthony Downing was named All-MVC honorable mention, while Nathan Scheer earned a spot on the MVC All-Bench Team and MVC Scholar-Athlete first team. Christian Kirk was also a postseason honoree with MVC Scholar-Athlete second-team distinction.
The Bears' "Super Six" freshman combined for 855 points (25.9 points per game), which accounted for 43.5 percent of the team's scoring total. The MSU cubs were 18th nationally in freshman scoring percentage, 22nd in total points and 26th in points per game while combining to start 78 games in 2012-13.
The busiest road schedule in school history saw the Bears log 21,373 miles of ground and air miles that included a summer tour of Costa Rica and Thanksgiving trip to Puerto Vallarta Mexico. After a couple of last-second defeats in the Puerto Vallarta event, the Bears started the MVC schedule with a 3-1 record, including a 70-59 home win over rival Southern Illinois. MSU finished strong too, going 3-3 down the stretch to earn the No. 7 seed for the Valley Tournament and finish 7-11 in league games (6-3 at home).
In his debut season at Missouri State in 2011-12, Lusk guided the Bears to a share of third place in the Missouri Valley Conference, tied a school record for most road wins and finished 16-16 overall with arguably the toughest non-conference schedule in the program's history.
Close calls and tight finishes became the team's calling card in 2011-12 with five overtime games and 17 games decided by single digits. MSU's 12 single-digit losses were the most in the MVC and program's most since 2002.
Lusk's inaugural campaign was also highlighted by a 4-0 start that included one-sided road wins at Nevada and Arkansas State. The Bears began league play with a 12-point win at No. 19 Creighton, the team's first Top 25 win since 2008 and first-ever road win over a ranked opponent. The Bears came within an eyelash of beating Big East power West Virginia in the Las Vegas Classic and also had No. 18 Creighton on the ropes in the final seconds of a home game at JQH Arena on Jan. 18 in two potential season-changing decisions.
Juco transfer Anthony Downing went on to earn a spot on the 2012 MVC All-Newcomer Team, and Michael Bizoukas, a one-year senior transfer from DePaul, led The Valley in assists and assist-to-turnover ratio. The team's six returning lettermen were also widely publicized in 2011-12 as senior Kyle Weems closed out his career as the program's No. 2 career scorer while earning All-MVC first team honors and becoming a finalist for the Lou Henson Mid-Major National Player of the Year Award. Fellow senior Caleb Patterson was honored with MVC Most-Improved Team honors, and the team placed two veteran players -- Isaiah Rhine and Nathan Scheer -- on the MVC Scholar-Athlete second team. Between, Downing, Jarmar Gulley and Bizoukas, the Bears claimed MVC Newcomer of the Week honors eight times, the second-highest total by one school in league history.
The 44-year-old coach came to Missouri State after seven seasons as an assistant coach at Purdue. When Cuonzo Martin accepted the MSU job in 2008, Lusk was promoted to Boilermakers' associate head coach under Purdue's top man, Matt Painter, a position he held until coming to MSU.
Lusk was named by FoxSports.com as one of the nation's top 25 high-major assistant coaches in the summer of 2010. In April 2011, Lusk was inducted into the Illinois Basketball Hall of Fame. After his first year at MSU, CollegeSportsMadness.com named Lusk its 2012 MVC coach of the year after taking the Bears from a predicted sixth-place finish to tie for third.
During his tenure on the Purdue coaching staff, Lusk helped guide the Boilermakers to five consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances with a collective 129-45 ledger during that span. He first came to West Lafayette in 2004-05 as an assistant under then-coach Gene Keady and stayed on board at Purdue when Painter took the coaching reigns in 2005-06.
Before moving to Purdue, he spent one season on Painter's staff at Southern Illinois in 2003-04, a campaign that also culminated in an NCAA Tournament berth, a No. 15 national ranking and a 25-5 overall record.
Prior to that, he spent one season as head coach at (Division III) University of Dubuque in Iowa. His head coaching debut came on the heels of three seasons at Division II Missouri Southern State in Joplin where he was an assistant under coach Robert Corn. The Lions were 71-21 in that span (1999-2002) with an NCAA Tournament appearance in 1999-2000. His coaching career started with a one-year stint as an assistant at Southwestern Illinois College in Belleville where coach Jay Harrington's Blue Storm finished 19-12.
The native of New Baden, Ill., began his playing career at Iowa in 1990 where he spent two years before he found a home at SIU under coach Rich Herrin. He helped guide the Salukis to three straight NCAA Tournament trips (1993-95), earning All-MVC second-team honors in 1994 with a 15.2 scoring average as a junior. As a senior, he earned a spot on the Valley Scholar-Athlete and All-Tournament teams and finished his career with 1,666 points.
He went on to play professionally both in the United States and Argentina and earned two different invitations to the Phoenix Suns' training camp.
A 1995 graduate of SIU-Carbondale, Lusk and his wife Melanie have a daughter, Maddie, and a son, Jack. The coup le both earned their Masters of Science in Education from Missouri State in December 2000. Lusk's current contract runs through March 31, 2019.

2013 Coombsville-Napa Valley "Mink Vineyard" Pinot Noir
Sold Out
Not available at this time, sorry.
Simply a mouthwatering Pinot Noir from a most unique of terroirs!
The Mink Vineyard is located next door to the winery, in the Coombsville Viticultural Area in the southeastern corner of Napa Valley. Open to the same morning fogs and afternoon breezes that cool Carneros to the west, Coombsville is consistently one of the coolest pockets in Napa. Mink sits inside a small �bowl�, allowing cooler air to settle during the evenings, and making Mink�s mesoclimate a couple degrees cooler, even, than the surrounding hills. But the real secret to Mink�s explosive flavors, smooth, mouth-coating minerality, comes from the soil. Underneath is a layer of compressed volcanic ash, called tufa. The tufa drains the top soils, storing moisture in rich clays underneath. The vines are able, with some work, to grow roots into the tufa layer, accessing moisture during the long, dry growing season. In a typical year, Mink can be practically dry-farmed.
2013 was a season of generous weather. Adequate winter rain and soil moisture ensured for a nice start to the growing season devoid of early frost. Ideal bloom conditions provided for a uniform fruit set. A summer of consistent temperatures without notable extremes kept the vines functioning optimally without undue stress. Late season warmth ensured nice ripe tannin and color development. In summary, this was a wonderfully cooperative vintage.
The grapes were destemmed into small, one-ton, open-top fermenters, with traditional hand punch downs, and aged the wine in Billon cooperage, a barrel that tends to sit subtly underneath the delicate fruit, lifting aromas without crowding them. The wines were racked once, gently, prior to bottling. Grapes, must, and wines were moved using gravity through to the barrel and using inert gas through racking and bottling.
285 cases produced.
Without sacrificing weight and depth, this wine displays elegance and finesse. Fruit notes of blueberry, cherries, and huckleberry dance upon a nose of wet stone. The palate reveals mouthwatering minerality rounded with plum, chocolate and currant, spiced with notes of tobacco. As always, the finish is dominated with the fine, chalky and mineral tannins coating the entire palate and lingering long into the finish. A singular California Pinot Noir, displaying the uniqueness of Coombsville. Drinks well now and will mature with grace for 8-12 years.

I would recommend installing something like PDF ReDirect. It is a free PDF creator that installs as a printer option, so when you want to export your artwork simply select Print in Paint.NET and choose PDF ReDirect as the target printer. PDF ReDirect allows you to choose the quality of the reproduction.
thats what I use too. I love it, small and it works for anything that has a print option (which is almost everything).

Archived Story
Calhoun players enjoy last seasonPublished 3:02pm Tuesday, July 16, 2013
Chelsea Bennich and Leah Robinson were teammates for a long time, from playing on youth league and travel teams to playing together at Hartselle High School and finishing at Calhoun Community College.
"It's just been great for us to have been playing together for such a long time," Robinson said. "We're such great friends and to get this opportunity has been amazing."
The two Hartselle players were key members of the Calhoun Community College softball program during the 2013 season.
As a sophomore, Robinson played in 32 games and had a batting average of .500 with three doubles, a triple and a home run. Bennich played in 22 games and finished with three doubles.
Robinson's best game of the season was when she went 3-for-3 with 2 doubles in a 3-2 win over Motlow State.
Both players were outstanding students in the classroom, making the dean's list their final semester at Calhoun.
One adjustment the two had to get used to was the playing with teammates, who used to be opponents in high school.
"That was something we had to get used to, but now we're all great friends," Bennich said. "We have a great team and we've had a great year."
The two finished their sophomore seasons at Calhoun Community College in May. But they said they were making the most of their final seasons.
"We're just going out there and having fun each time we get to play," Robinson said. "It's been just a great experience getting to play for Calhoun. We have great coaches and we're just excited to get to play a sport we love."

Sheik Salman: No personal clash with Prince Ali
LISBON, Portugal (AP) — Asian Football Confederation President Sheik Salman bin Ebrahim al Khalifa says his election dispute with FIFA vice president Prince Ali bin Al-Hussein is not personal.
Both positions are due for election next year and Sheik Salman of Bahrain believes the FIFA seat, senior to his own membership of FIFA's board, should rightfully be the AFC leader's.
He proposes changing AFC statutes on June 9 in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
Sheik Salman tells The Associated Press: "We have to be, let's say, a sportsman on and off the field and accept it and not be too personal."
Prince Ali of Jordan has written to 46 AFC members expressing surprise that Sheik Salman revived a plan rejected last year.
Then, Sheik Salman was elected to complete the mandate of Qatari Mohamed bin Hammam.

Changes in Bullying in Pop Culture
full name / name of organization:
Abigail Scheg, Elizabeth City State University
contact email:
Bullying has been a hot topic in recent years in terms of education, social media, and garnering awareness and protection of all persons from bullying. While being bullied or picked on used to be considered something of a rite of passage of elementary and high school, it is now considered a serious offense and can result in school expulsion and criminal charges. The scope of bullying within popular culture has also changed radically; depicting scenes in television or movies regarding bullying is now considered offensive and come with a warning at the start of an episode.

It's a person – not a place – that wins the 2008 'Paint San Clemente'
After 125 artists spent a week painting the town, from the pier to the far reaches of Avenida Pico, the winning subject in the seventh annual Paint San Clemente competition wasn't a San Clemente place at all. It was a San Clemente person.
The San Clemente Art Association awarded local artist Kathleen Robison the $5,000 Paint San Clemente grand prize Saturday for "Girl in Beach Towel," a depiction of Robison's 15-year-old daughter Patrice.
What inspired the painting? The Robisons reside in Talega, and Kathleen asked her daughter to pose at Talega's community pool, against the backdrop of a blue sky. "I struggled all week long," Robison said. "I've painted this for four years, and I didn't know what else to do. But my kids I love, and they're easy. And I tried to capture her."
Patrice, who will be a sophomore at San Clemente High School this fall, on the soccer team, "was just standing there with her towel," Robison said. "She's fixing her hair."
Diane Merrill of Huntington Beach won $1,000 prize for second place with "Beach Trail." It's a subject familiar to Merrill, whose portrayal of Calafia Beach won the Paint San Clemente grand prize four years ago, her first time in the competition. "That got me hooked," she said.
This year, she set up at the north end of the San Clemente Coastal Trail and painted the view to the south - curving railroad tracks, the sea, the pier, the cliff and the beach trail.
"And I put in a man with a dog," Merrill said. "I have to have a dog! I like to have life in there, you know, to show that the beach trail is used. And almost everyone who went by me had a dog. It just seemed like it had to have a dog."
Eric Bowman of Tigard, Ore., took the $800 third-place prize for "The Quiet Woman."
"It was one of the shops on Del Mar," he said, "and there was a headless mannequin out in front - so, 'Quiet Woman.' It was an indigenous shop to San Clemente. It had kind of Spanish-style arches."
What brought Bowman to San Clemente to paint? "I went to school here 30 years ago, at San Clemente High," he said. "I love the town, and my old art teacher, Rick Delanty, was in the show."
Fourth place, $500, went to Carole Gray-Weihman of Penngrove in Northern California, for "Eucalyptus on the Ridge."
"I went up in the hills a little bit, into the neighborhoods right above San Clemente," she said. "I asked someone if I could paint on their property. I saw this eucalyptus in the distance. I just wanted to get a little closer. When I got to the crest, I saw the city below. It was just very inspiring. I love the early California look. I didn't have to create anything. It was right in front of me."

Good stuff man. Do you plan on staying with 531 for a while longer ?
Good stuff man. Do you plan on staying with 531 for a while longer ?
Nice progress with the 531. I'll be starting the program soon and it's good to see people having success with it.
Tried to DL today, managed 3 x 5 x 155 and my back was still hurting. I think I may just have to skip deadlifts this whole cycle it puts too much stress on the injury. Squatting doesn't affect it too much.
I just did some ham curls, lunges and leg exts as well as some grip work so the trip wasnt a total waste.
John: Cheers mate, you'll have to get a journal going.
Cmanuel: Thanks mate, I was just starting to make some real progress before the injury, I'd say I'll give it at least 6 months before I think about changing, unless I cease making any progress at all.
Good job on the consecutive sessions, fine squats and upper body training.

My back has got worse I've played a lot of football, maybe too much. Going to the physio at work as it's causing me some ridiculous pain at times.
I will just have to see how it goes but I'm getting a bit frustrated with it as I can't train fully or deadlift.
Been managing to stay on track no matter what. Those are nice efforts Matt.
Awww ****. That sucks about your back, bro. Where exactly did you hurt it and what did the physio say? Funny how we all seem to get beat up about the same time isn't it? I think holding back on some of the lifts is the smart thing to do. I hope it heals up quickly and you have no trouble with it bro. I completely understand your frustration. I wish there was a real way to train around an injury. It sucks.

Nothing will pi** you off more then a friggin injury that causes you to not be able to lift....it sucks a** man. Best of the luck to ya. You're still looking pretty damn strong in here despite all that crap.

Hope the back heals man. Way to soldier through the workouts regardless. Just make sure it's not an injury you'll make worse. Crossing my fingers the doc brings good news.
The concern is appreciated lads.
I have facet syndrome apparently, stress on the muscles that support the weight and movement between individual vertebrae. Pretty gay. Just got to have physio on it and take it easy.
FWIW I hit 4 x 225.5 on bench day and preceded to have a rather painful spazzing out sesh so haven't trained since tuesday.
Never an easy thing when a doc diagnoses you with something that there isn't a quick and easy fix for. All the more lousy when it's something that affects your lifestyle and happiness. Hang in there, bro, there is always a way through the problems that are presented in your life. You'll be back at it sooner than later.

The Riddle Of Iron - Kiaran's Garage Training Log
Just looking through some articles on here and thought id stop by some journals.
For anyone that remembers me, I was doing well til i got a back injury in Feb 2010 that was pretty bad and it took me til May to recover fully. I missed out on competing at the regionals and my totals at the time of injury would have got me a spot in the nationals easily.
Ive since got back in the gym and weigh about 235lbs. Current 1RM for bench is 308 and Squat 394. Unfortunately im still very wary of deadlifting heavy and have avoided them although do aim to get back into them sooner rather than later. I still want to compete one day but at the mo Im just lifting for fun, strength and size.
Anyway thought id just see if anyone was still about, gunna check out a few of the regulars on here, looks like youre all still going!
Good to see you back man! Damn, that is one serious injury that kept you out that long. You good now or what?
Good luck in getting back in the game man!

Cheers mate, yea I'm pretty much fixed now. I lifted light for a while and just played football but am back to a decent level now.
Might start posting in the journal again but my workouts aren't too interesting. I just lift heavy on Bench, Rows, Squats, Weighted Dips and Pulls then a shedload of assistance til I can't move. Seems to work as my bench has shot up. First time I've been able to lift 300 in my life.
I'm living in Sweden for 3 months so concentrating on strength and size but will be cutting down when I get back so I can play football again.
Glad to see you check in and give an update, happy you are doing well and able to proceed forward.
Keep getting into the gym man.

15 Comments | Copyright: India-Forums.com / TellyBuzz
Neela Telefilms Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah on SAB TV has completed 5 years now. This show has been entertaining the audiences with its humor, wit through the usual day-to-day routine of it's characters which has been the USP of the show since day one along with Jethalal (Dilip Joshi) and Daya's (Disha Wakhani) chemistry. To sum up the show is a simple story well told.
We have often seen actors telling about the show,and now TellyBuzz converses with the man behind the creativity Malav Rajda, the director of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah.
How did your journey in this industry began?
I always wanted to get into media as my family is quite well versed in this field and they have been directing and producing from quite some time now, so I wanted to also direct as I felt I had the inclination to do so. I started with couple of shows on Indian Television and later on bagged Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chasmah. I am thankful and grateful to the producer Asit Modi for the same.
How has your experience been while directing Taarak Mehta..
It's been 5 years since I am directing Taarak Mehta and I feel it's one of the best show that I am working on. To be honest, I have a very good and great team of actors who are very co-operative and quite adjusting too. They never create a fuss on the timings and long working hours. It's been smooth and cordial relationship from the last 5 years.
How is it to work with Dilip Joshi and Disha Wakhani?
Dilip Joshi and Disha Wakhani are the best actors and quite humble. I will say I have learnt a lot from Dilip Joshi and he is one such actor who has inspired and motivated many others. I personally learn every single day from him and Dilipji has absolutely no issues in going ahead and teaching us.
What is your role as a director?
I am directing the show along with Harshad Joshi and we make sure the script is given on time, the show is directed smoothly, it is shot properly on various locations. At times we have to tell the cameraman to set up the camera well so that the shots taken are good. We use multiple cameras as well when required. Usually, we have one to two cameras set up.
Are you apprehensive about the TRP's ?
No not all! I feel this show is there to stay and it has been running before popular shows came at 8.30 pm. For me it really doesn't matter what are the TRP's since the loyal audience do follow the show. The only issue I feel is there are just too many repeats of the show and if we don't have so many repeats then the 8.30 pm slot will get good TRP's but there is also a positive point to it that the show is loved worldwide. Our fans just can't miss a single episode.
What is the USP of the show?
For me it's the storyline and the script, it is fresh unique and very different. I am proud about the fact that we never have any crunch of stories and we never needed any leaps to move the story forward. The story line has been consistently very strong and the day-to-day subjects have given a boost to the story line and all the issues be it a social issue, fashion issue or a simple issue. They all have given us a great response.
What are your future plans?
I am writing scripts for movies as well and hope they do well too. On the Taarak front I want to assure full entertainment to each and every viewer and would thank everyone for watching it endlessly.

The actress will be playing a pivotal role in the show.
The show in all probability will not be going off air as of now.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Friday's press conference to announce that Clint Bowyer had signed to drive for Michael Waltrip Racing beginning next season looked pretty standard. Joking driver, praise-gushing owner and optimistic sponsor.

Mthulisi Ndlovu told police that his girlfriend had gone missing after taking a morning jog.
The blood streaks on his walls and burned corpse in
Mthulisi Ndlovu told police that his girlfriend had gone missing after taking a morning jog.
The blood streaks on his walls and burned corpse in his basement suggested otherwise.
Ndlovu, a 38-year-old Zimbabwean immigrant, now stands charged with murder for what is described in court documents as a case of violent rage, followed by a clumsy cover-up.
According to statements filed in Pierce County Superior Court, Ndlovu allegedly came home on Oct. 9 and got into a fight about dirty dishes with his longtime girlfriend, 42-year-old mother of two Mary Mushapaidzi.
During this fight, prosecutors say, Mushapaidzi struck Ndlovu with her purse, and the man then got angry and knocked her to the floor.
That's when the pruning shears came out.
NDLOVU said Mushapaidzi struck him in the face with her purse. NDLOVU said he became enraged and knocked Mushapaidzi to the ground. He climbed on top of her and punched her several times. He said it was possible that he tried to strangle her and struck her with the handle of the pruning shears, but he couldn't remember.
Mary MushapaidziAfter Ndlovu allegedly bludgeoned his girlfriend he eventually realized she was dead, so he "fashioned a wire harness" that he used to drag her downstairs and place her in a metal barrel.
Then he went to work.
When he came back from work, prosecutors say Ndlovu put charcoal into the barrel and set it on fire in an effort to destroy the corpse.
Ndlovu next went to the Bonney Lake police station and informed police that his girlfriend never came home from her run.
But when police came to Ndlovu's apartment they immediately smelled something burning--Ndlovu claimed he was burning trash in his basement. Police also found blood streaks trailing down to the basement.
Then police found the burned human remains in the barrel.
Neighbors told police that they heard several loud noises the night before, and Mushapaidzi's 8-year-old son said he vaguely remembers hearing his mom cry out for help.
Ndlovu faces life in prison if convicted.

"Pura Vida!" Top 5 Page for this destination Liberia by tang-bailey
Liberia Travel Guide: 50 reviews and 100 photos
Many people assume that because CR is in Central America that it is unsafe. We spent a week there and I had no fear whatsoever when we were off the resort at any time.
This is a beautiful lush country during rainy season. The rainy season ends in November. Although we only had rain for about 1 hour 4 days out of 7.
The mountains and volcanos are amazing. This is a place to go if you are interested in ecological edventures. This is the basis of all their tours.
We had the opportunity to visit beautiful waterfalls, a volcano crater, and walk through the rainforest.
They have the big blue butterflies swooping by you while walking in the forest. We saw many monkeys just hanging on it trees along the side of the road.
It was very hot while we were there and apparently it gets hotter in their dry season.
We stayed at the Fiesta Premier Resort and it was fabulous. It was a smaller resort and while we were there the resort had probably about 150 people staying there.
You have the choice of a bungalow that has two rooms in it or you can stay up in the 400's which is at the top of the hill but apparently was worth the view.
There were two a la carte restaurants. I highly recommend the spinach ravioli at the italian restaurant. It was to die for.
Also the macadamia nut and garlic soup at the other restaurant was excellent.
There isn't alot of night life at this resort but we made the best of it. Brought our Ipod and they let us hook it up to the speakers and all the Canadians that were there which was about 90% of the guests had a great time.
The resort offers some great FREE activities.
They have a snorkeling tour, a kayaking tour, a walking tour, a sunset tour and a bike tour off of the resort. We took advantage of each of these and it was great. I was able to see a baby stingray while snorkeling and we were able to see the spider monkyes as well as the howler monkeys.
The sunset tour is a must see it is quit the view.
- Pros:Great, Safe, beautiful and Hot country
- Cons:Too much to see, not enought time.

For a thousand days the great barge of the Adeptus sailed towards Earth. In the thirteen holds, each as cavernous as a temple nave, our human cargo set up a great wailing and moaning. I counted twenty thousand souls bound for service. Men, women and children. Young and old. The sick and the sound. Only the children did not know or could not guess what lay at the journey's end. But I am a Psyker like them and I sensed their pain and felt their chains as if bound about my own body. Already I could taste the fear of the weak and knew what fate held for them. They would serve with their lives. The remainder would serve in their own way. Their powers would be trained to provide the Emperor's Pskyers, Astropaths, and thousands of other functionaries. But the decision was not mine to make, to separate those who would live from those who would die. I am a guardian of the Adeptus. Souls such as these I carry to the Emperor's table.
Sweeney Todd: The history of the world, my love...
Mrs. Lovett: Save a lot of graves, do a lot of relatives favors...
Sweeney Todd: ...is those below serving those up above.
Mrs. Lovett: Everybody shaves, so there should be plenty of flavors...
Sweeney Todd: How gratifying for once to know...
Both: ...that those above will serve those down below!
— "A Little Priest", Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street
The Doctor: But did you bother to tell anyone that they might be eating their own relatives?
Davros: Certainly not! That would have created what I believe is termed... "consumer resistance."
— Doctor Who, Revelation of the Daleks
Dalek Emperor: The bodies were filleted. Pulped. Sifted. The seed of the human race is perverted! Only one cell in a billion was fit to be nurtured.
Doctor: So you created an army of Daleks out of the dead.
Rose: That makes 'em...half-human?
Dalek Emperor: THOSE WORDS ARE BLASPHEMY!
— Doctor Who, "The Parting of the Ways"
Need parts. Kill ze little one!
Edgar: Mankind's a limited resource, after all.
Alpha Vampire: There are seven billion of them.
Edgar: Only seven.

The Golgari have an important function in Ravnica. They take care of the dead, in their own way, and they provide food for the poor. What is that food made out of? That's not to ask. That's golgari business!
