Bill would allow underage winemakers to sip, spit
Sacramento, Calif. - The family business brought Holly Reynolds from a grape farm in Kansas to the renowned viticulture and enology department at the University of California, Davis.
Since she decided in high school to follow her parents into winemaking, Reynolds knew she wanted to attend a program many consider "the best in the country, the best in the world."
Paying high out-of-state fees, however, she's planning to minimize her costs by finishing in three years- and that's put her in a predicament.
Reynolds won't turn 21 until April, just two months before she's to graduate. As a result, she's unable to partake in an essential part of her educational experience: wine tasting. It's a fundamental problem for students in California's winemaking and beer-brewing programs, which also include California State University, Fresno, Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and several community colleges.
As undergraduates, many are under the legal drinking age for most of their time in school and cannot participate in classroom or extracurricular tastings that would allow them to get a firsthand understanding of theory, develop their palates and network with industry representatives who visit campus.
"You have to be a bystander and listen to what other people have to say about" the wines, Reynolds said during a recent vineyard-management class. Under the beating June sun, she and fellow students pruned leaves from grapevines in a field outside UC Davis' Mondavi Institute for Wine and Food Sciences.
Reynolds worries that "it's really going to hold me back" looking for a job at a winery after graduation. "They're going to expect you to have substantial knowledge on not only their grapes and styles of winemaking," she said, but also grapes and styles from across the world.
Though it's an issue that affects only a narrow slice of students- about 100 at UC Davis - the Legislature is working on a solution. Assembly Bill 1989, sponsored by Assemblyman Wesley Chesbro, D-Arcata, would craft an exemption to California's prohibition on "furnishing alcohol to a minor," allowing 18-, 19- and 20-year-old students in enology and brewing science to taste alcohol as part of their classes.
"AB 1989 will ensure that students will have the same educational opportunities and they won't be delayed" in graduating, Chesbro said May 15 on the Assembly floor. "It will guarantee that our graduates will remain competitive in our thriving wine and beer industries."
Twelve other states, including Oregon, Washington and New York, already have similar laws on the books. Chesbro has declined to speak further with the press about the legislation.
The idea for the California bill originated with Andrew Waterhouse, a professor of wine chemistry at UC Davis who has been concerned for many years that age restrictions on tastings detracted from students' education.
The Davis program begins primarily with general science requirements. Then students specialize in their last two years, learning sensory analysis and getting hands-on training in growing grapes and running equipment.
Tasting is important to all of it, said Waterhouse, who added that students would benefit from having more time in school to develop their palates.
"Learning what the wine generally tastes like at different stages, and then how to detect different problems and whether things are going well or not, takes some practice," he said.
UC Davis has adjusted its curriculum to push more of those courses toward the end of the program, when most students are of legal drinking age, but the restriction still has an impact on their ability to learn.
The wine-production class is offered to upper-division students in the fall, when grapes are available after harvest. Since not all students have turned 21 by that point, however, the professor has removed tastings from the course so as not to leave anyone out.
Students can still get some sensory understanding through smell, Waterhouse said, but "a lot of the experience you can only get by tasting."
He said one can only taste sweetness or sourness, for example, which are "very important in fermentation."

Not true. I am on Choice Ulimate with lifetime DVR, and they turned it on just fine. Thats bogus info they are giving you. Call again and get someone else.
There is a big difference between lifetime DVR and the legacy package that included DVR service in the Premium package. I fought the battle to keep free DVR service on my package with every equipment swap or other change to my service. Eventually, I gave up the fight and just pay the fee. As much as I hate to see my bills go up, my only other options are Dish and Cable. If either one were more appealing I would have switched long ago.

In addition to O'Dell's journalistic contributions to NBC's "Today" (NBC, 1952- ) and the news magazine "Dateline NBC" (1992- ) she was also a highly visible spokesperson for the March of Dimes, hoping that her countless guest spots in film and television (where she usually played her bubbly self) would help bring awareness to the cause. A former Miss Carolina of 1987, O'Dell began co-hosting Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants in 2004 and 2005 respectively, expanding into television production as a consulting producer on "Nashville Star" (USA, 2003-07; NBC, 2008- ) which she also hosted during its first season.

ATLANTA -- I'm very careful about the day I pick my deals. Thanks to continuous insider information, I declare today one of the best days of the season to buy a grill.
Grilling season is technically over after Labor Day (as far as many stores are concerned) and prices drop.

So below you'll find the biggest deals, hand-picked and ready to go.

WWE Diva Search host
One of the ideas being floated around backstage is to have a former winner being the host of the WWE Diva Search competition, which is making a return this year. Layla El, Rosa Mendes and Michelle McCool have been mentioned as candidates. Maryse has been mentioned as a possibility, but she is going to be a bit busy with the reality television show she is doing with Kelly Kelly. Eve Torres is pregnant, so she might not be available.

Bu Susan Davis, USA TODAY
WASHINGTON - House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, was handed a stunning defeat late Thursday by members of his own party who refused to support his "Plan B" to avoid a year-end "fiscal cliff" that threatens to send the economy in to a recession.
GOP leaders worked intensely throughout the day to build support for Boehner's two-pronged legislative effort to cut spending and extend current tax rates for all but those earning $1 million, but they could not convince enough Republicans to vote for the proposal in the face of expected unanimous opposition from Democrats, who support President Obama's plan.
In a brief statement, Boehner said "it did not have sufficient support for our members to pass" and he put the onus to avert the "fiscal cliff" on Obama and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. It was apparent that Republicans were in a bind when a hastily organized GOP meeting was called late Thursday evening. Boehner opened with the Serenity Prayer and then informed members he did not have the votes to pass his proposal and sent his members home for the Christmas holiday.
The House and Senate are not expected to return until Dec. 27, just four days before the "fiscal cliff" hits.

We went into shore this morning for a short walk around town and a nice lunch and I've posted an album of the pictures we took as we walked around the waterfront area.
01/21/2012, Zihautanejo, Mexico
The first time we sailed to Mexico in 1999 we were looking forward to reaching Z-town -- we'd heard so much about it and it sounded like the ideal cruising destination. As things turned out on that cruise, we only made it as far south at Manzanillo, nearly 200 miles north of here, before it was time to turn north.
Since that time we've been to Zihautanejo several times -- but by airplane for vacations with family and friends and once on a cruise ship! We've stayed in hotels here, but more often traveled about an hour north of here to the beautiful beaches of Troncones.
So when we finally sailed into Zihautanejo on our own boat yesterday it was a dream fulfilled -- and since we have been here before it was a comfortable entry -- we already knew the lay of the land and what to expect as far as the anchorage.
We plan to be here about a month preparing for our journey to the Galapagos. I will fly back to Gig Harbor for 10 days in February and Carly and Ryan will be flying down here for a visit at the beginning of March and good friends will be in Troncones at the beginning of March and we hope to visit up there, too. So it will be a busy quick month!
I'm posting some pictures from our 5 day voyage from La Paz to Zihautanejo in the photo gallery to the right. Enjoy!
01/19/2012, Off of Manzanillo
The picture above shows the display on our radar/chart plotter when we had ships coming at us from both directions -- we're the one in the middle with the circle around us (it's a two mile radius that easily shows us how far away things are)
Once we came south along the mainland coast we started seeing lots of cargo ships -- going both north and south. It's always a bit disconcerting to see the lights of a very big ship looking like its heading straight for you. A lot of that worry has been taken away now that in addition to radar which helps you spot the ships and gives you a good idea of where they're heading, we now have AIS that picks up a transmitted signal and gives us all the information we could possibly want : type of vessel and size, destination, heading, speed, time to closest contact and how close it will be. It also gives the vessels name and MMSI number so it is easier to make contact with the ship in question than in years past.
We have called on the VHF to two of the ships we've seen -- when they showed that they would pass relatively close to us -- just to check with them to make sure they were aware of us and what their intentions were (which side they'd pass us. So AIS is definitely on our list of "things that work" and we'd highly recommend it for any boat that will spend any time near shipping lanes (like the Straits of Juan de Fuca back home).
We're still seeing lots of ships today, but they're much less mysterious during daylight when you can actually see them.
We've had a mix of weather today -- the biggest surprise being the 20 knot winds on our nose along with a 3 - 4 foot swell to beat into. The forecast called for much lighter weather, but you get what you get. The biggest worry was that it would slow us down to much so we'd be out an extra day because we need to time things right so we reach Zihautanejo during daylight hours. Only time will tell, but right now we think it looks good to get in late tomorrow afternoon.
The wind and seas continued to build yesterday, as expected, so we haven't had to turn the engine back on in the past 24 hours! There is a 6 foot swell with some wind chop, winds gust between 18 and 28 and we're moving along under our storm main sail and a reefed Genoa.
We chose to use the storm sail over the reefed main in these conditions for two reasons: 1st, the wind is straight behind us and our storm sail isn't attached to the boom so there's no danger of accidental jibes and secondly it is less sail area than our reefed main so it doesn't block the wind from the Genoa. If the winds got nasty we would roll in the Genoa completely and put up our storm trysail -- that's a good combination on this boat if the winds are 35+.
We are doing a bit of rocking due to the sometimes confused swell, but all and all it isn't bad -- it's a good shake down cruise as we'd hoped.
I think Rosie is a little displeased with all the motion -- she chewed up the edges of a chart when we weren't looking -- I think she isn't getting enough play time right now.
If the forescast is correct we will have these same conditions this morning and then we should get far enough down the coast for things to settle down. Hang in there Rosie!
Last night was a nice smooth night, though winds were so light we used the engine to keep us on our way. That's a luxury we have on this passage because we know we can buy fuel in Zihautanejo. On a long ocean passage you must restrict your engine use so the fuel can stretch as far as possible.
This morning as the sun rose the winds began picking up and we've enjoyed a very nice sail all day with our trusty Monitor windvane doing all the steering. The winds and seas are predicted to pick up even more by tomorrow, but we've got a good sail configuration and expect it to be a good passage.
We've always said the first 3 days of any passage are the hardest as your mind and body have to adjust to all the constant movement, so if that holds true our last couple days should be quite nice.
Rosie is still doing great, but she seems a little more bothered by the movement today and has been sleeping even more than normal -- if that's possible!
01/16/2012, Somewhere south of Cabo
This is the 1st night Terry and I have spent at Sea in a very long time -- since coming down the coast in 2009. But it was Rosie's 1st night at Sea -- EVER!
As always she handled it like a trooper -- though I know she was wondering why we didn't stop somewhere before nightfall and anchor and get back to life as usual. She slept most of the day, as she will when were out traveling over the water, then when it came time to start our watches she would sit out in the cockpit with the on watch person for a little bit, but when she'd see the off watch person lay down to sleep, she was happy to join them. Then, this morning, she found a couple small squid on the deck! You could just see the big grin on her face as she tried to take one down below -- but we convinced her they were to be enjoyed in the codkpit.
Luckily the seas smoothed out after a bit rolly start and she (and we!) were able to move around quite normally so she even managed to use the head when it came time.
We were able to sail most all day, but when night fell the winds died so we turned on the engine to keep us moving along. The forecast is for the winds and seas to build over the next 2 days, so we anticipate getting some good sailing in then.
So all and all it was a very good start to this 5 or 6 day passage -- despite the engine -- sort of easing into it and getting our minds and bodies used to this unusual way of life with some pretty easy weather.

I've always said the hardest part of cruising is saying goodbye to places you love and the friends you've made there. Dock 3 has been our home for the past 3 winters and we've enjoyed the company of a wonderful bunch of cruisers celebrating Christmas, New Years, watching football games, going out to eat, doing "walk abouts" in town, hiking the mountain, playing cards, having coffee and of course, our famous Dock 3 Dock parties.
They made our departure lots of fun with a great send off dock party with lots of gifts and then last night when we went out to dinner they filled our boat with lots of fun little surprises -- funny toys stuck into every nook and cranny -- bows and stars and a Canadian flag tied over our American flag!
So it was tempting to stay put and enjoy the comfortable life on Dock 3, but we managed to tear ourselves away and now we're spending a nice evening at a cozy little anchorage with plans to get up early and begin the 633 mile trek to Zihautanejo.
The Friday excursion to pick up the blood serum from the vet, package it, take it to customs to be stamped then to DHL to be shipped to Kansas went extremely well so we were finally free to leave La Paz!
Our first leg was a short one and we just traveled about 10 miles to an anchorage just north of La Paz to anchor for the day and get everything ship shape to set out on the long passage to Zihautanejo in the morning.
Well the cat blood serum adventure continues!
When we checked with DHL last week about arranging to ship the serum to the States as quickly as possible, we thought we had everything in place..... but today we found out that they only ship out of the country once a week (Friday afternoon at 5)! That would have really made a mess out of things if the samples had to sit in the office till Friday and the ice packs would have been all melted even before it was on it's way.
Luckily our veterinarian, Dr. Tomas, knew they didn't ship everyday and recommended we go check with them before we take the blood sample there. And luckily there was a guy working that spoke good English and we got the information we needed -- plus another tidbit that they hadn't told us last week: we have to take the unsealed package to the customs office down the street to be sealed and stamped by them before shipping. It would have been another big fiasco if we'd just taken the package to DHL in time for the 5:00 shipping because customs closes at 4:00!
So it seems La Paz has its hold on us and now we're just hoping to get out of here this coming Saturday. But like I said before: La Paz isn't a bad place to be stuck :-)
01/09/2012, La Paz, BCS Mexico
When Terry first picked Rosie up from under the truck by the Taco stand in Santa Rosalia and asked "can I keep her?" I warned him that it would change our cruising life and make travel (especially off the boat) much more difficult. But I'm really as much of a softie and animal lover as he is, so Rosie joined the Cetus Crew and we've enjoyed every minute of having her with us.
But, it does complicate matters. Not so much really traveling around here in Mexico, but there's a lot more to think about when we travel elsewhere with her -- like when we travel to and from the US.
And now, with our travel plans taking us maybe up to Hawaii and then hopefully on to Australia it has really complicated matters. Both of those islands are rabies free and along with a few others (Japan and New Zealand for example) they want to stay that way, so they have very strict entry requirement for pets.
It used to be that for Hawaii the only choice was a 120 day quarantine at a veterinary facility. I'd heard things were better now and through research of Hawaii's agricultural website and a few calls to them to clarify how it works with a pet on a private boat I've learned a lot in the past week and think I'll be able to do all the necessary paperwork so that Rosie will be able to stay on the boat with us when we go to Hawaii.
She already had the required microchip (used in this case to make sure it's the right animal) and she's had her rabies shots. But what she needs is to have an FAVN blood test to prove she doesn't carry rabies. It would be very simple to do this in the States, but I, unfortunately, did not get it done when we were up there this summer ;-( I had looked into it a little thinking I would need it for Australia, but at the time I thought I read it was only good for 120 days -- which wouldn't have done us any good because we wouldn't be in Australia that soon. But what I've learned since is that it has to be done at least 120 days before entering the country in question -- but it is actually good for 36 months. Sure wish I would have known that last summer!
So, it can be done here in Mexico, but it is a bit more complicated because the only lab that does this test is at the University of Kansas. And to get the serum to Kansas quickly from Mexico is a bit more complicated because it has to go through customs. Luckily the Kansas State University website has detailed instructions and even the necessary custom forms to attach -- and helpful friendly people answering the phone to answer all my questions.
I've done the paperwork and gotten to DHL to get that all set up, talked to the vet (we even used him when we had our previous cat Cali down here in La Paz 11 or so years ago), secured ice packs and we were all set to go in this morning, do the blood draw, package the sample and ship it off. But...... the vet decided that the amount of blood he'd have to draw to get the required serum would be too difficult on an un-sedated cat. And, he couldn't sedate the cats (our friend Vicky is going through the same process and we took them in together) because they'd both eaten this morning -- and they can't sedate them unless they've been fasting for 12 hours.
Tomorrow we'll try try again and if all goes well and we get the serum on it's way, we will be on our way on Wednesday!
In the meantime we've got some football to watch and dinner to eat at the local Sport's Bar: Tailhunter's. So thanks to Rosie we get to enjoy yet another day in La Paz -- so we're not really complaining!

01/07/2012, Dock 3 Marina Palmira, La Paz BCS
Dock 3 lived up to its reputation for the best dock parties in La Paz and we enjoyed a great Bon Voyage for our planned departure early next week.
I've always said the hardest part of cruising is leaving a place that you've come to love and saying good bye to the friends you've made there. La Paz and the Sea of Cortez and the other cruiser's we've met here are going to be sorely missed, but the anticipation of our up coming adventures make it a bittersweet parting. We will say Hasta Luego and not Adios when we finally leave the dock, as we plan to return when our adventurous traveling days are over. As another boat was leaving La Paz this morning the net controller said there seems to be a bungee cord attached to each boat as they leave that eventually pulls them back -- and we plan to make sure that bungee cord is in place on Cetus before we cast off the dock lines.
So we gathered at sunset with a table laden with great food and a group of friends -- some we've actually known for about 20 years! and some we've just met in the last week -- and we were given gifts and well wishes. It's especially tough to leave the group of friends that have been here with us for the past 3 years and we will miss all the fun times we've had with them.
One of the gifts presented last night was this great Burgee they designed that has all the boat names that have shared dock 3 with us these last 3 winters. The rest of the photos will be posted in our photo gallery under the title: Hasta Luego Dock 3.

Wow! 2012! Hard to believe.
We woke up to a beautiful sunny day to start the New Year and will enjoy a day free of boat projects, having completed the last major one yesterday. And it was a doozy -- replacing seals on our Lectra San.
It was one of those projects that wasn't on our pre departure check list, but got added to the list when a little water started leaking out of it a week ago. It wasn't a project we really wanted to tackle -- but much better that it showed up while we were here in La Paz and not out in the middle of the ocean where we wouldn't be able to take care of it.
The Lectra San is basically a miniature sewage treatment plant that uses high amperage to neutralize waste so it is safe to discharge overboard and eliminates any holding tank smells. So it is not a critical piece of equipment, the boat can function fine without it, but its something we are happy to have. It is right up there on my list of "things that work".
When Terry identified the parts needed from Raritan (the manufacturer) we were afraid it might delay our departure from La Paz, because getting things shipped into Mexico can often take a very long time. We were very surprised after ordering the repair kit on Tuesday that it was delivered to the Marina on Thursday afternoon!
So Friday morning Terry tackled the project and removed the Lectra San from it's confines under the bathroom sink and disassembled it (on the dock) and then put in the new seals. That makes it sound like a short easy job, but as anybody with a boat knows nothing is ever as quick and easy as it sounds -- even when it all goes well. So he spent the major part of the day getting it all put back together and now it works perfectly again.
So today we'll enjoy relaxing and watching football games, then tomorrow I will begin the last phase of our preparations: Provisioning.
Happy New Year everyone!
Now that Christmas is over we're getting down to serious work on our off shore preparations list.
Today we're inspecting the rigging and adjusting the tension. Terry went up the mast to check things out from top to bottom to make sure all is well: inspected the rigging with a magnifying glass, lubed the sailtrack and checked the masthead lights and VHF antenna. All looks good to go.
And we also had our refrigeration checked for leaks and recharged to ensure that is in top running condition. For that we enlisted the services of a local company, Hector Refigeration. Now that system is good to go and can be checked off the list as well.
It's going to be a busy couple weeks as we're hoping on leaving La Paz by January 7th to give us a full month to get down to Zihautanejo (several stops along the way). We hope to leave Zihautanejo mid March for the passage to the Galapagos.
It's getting exciting!!
12/24/2011, La Paz, BCS Mexico
We're enjoying our 3rd Christmas on dock 3 in Marina Palmira in La Paz, Mexico!
It's been busy with preparations and festivities but not the hectic pace I remember from back home. We had a fun progressive boat dinner last week with a group of 12 of us that have been here the past 3 years and last night we had our 3rd annual white elephant gift exchange. Last nights was especially nice, because we happen to have 2 professional singers that led us in Christmas carols! We moved the party up to a room (a seldom used bar) at the hotel due to the high winds we've got going for a couple days. It was a great venue and the party was a huge success.
We're enjoying a quiet relaxing day today and tomorrow dock 3 will have another dock party -- complete with turkey and ham and all the other Christmas feast fixin's.
We wish you all a very Merry Christmas!
Heidi, Terry and Street Cat Rosie
I finally uploaded some pics from our travels in the Sea of Cortez this fall -- from Santa Rosalia to La Paz and all the stops in between. To see the album go to Fall 2011 The Sea of Cortez in our Photo Gallery to the right.
It was a wonderful trip with sun, swimming, sailing and hiking and beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Now that we've been at the dock since Dec. 1st life is totally different. We still hike -- but it's the same hike every morning, no swimming or sailing -- those have been replaced with boat projects and trips to the stores in town for provisioning. But, we still get to enjoy the beautiful sunrises and sunsets, so life is good.
When I got the new SPOT Connect I didn't change my settings to have it display on my share page. But now I have, so if you click on the link to the right called "Where in the world are Terry and Heidi" it will take you to our new share page on the SPOT website and if any SPOT messages have been sent out within 7 days they will show up there.
You can also click on the map to the right and it displays our location from the Sailblog posts. One way or the other we can always be found!
We're still getting settled into life at the dock -- we came in on Dec. 1st but by Dec. 3rd we were on the road north driving up Baja to take our car back and stow it away for awhile. I traveled as far as San Diego where I flew back down so I could stay with Rosie while Terry completed the trip, and now he will fly back home on Saturday.
We plan to be here in Marina Palmira until around Jan. 15th when we will cross to mainland Mexico to position ourselves in Zihautanejo -- our jumping off point for the Galapagos. We plan to begin that big passage mid March. But, you know all cruising plans are written in sand........
While here at the dock we'll be busy working on readying the boat for the big crossing -- but it won't be all work and no play because all the regulars -- and some new friends -- are all back on Dock 3 where there are great dock parties and lots of other social events.
So for the next month and a half my blog posts won't be about our travels, but rather about our preparations for a big off shore passage. I'll also include several of our "Things that work.....or don't" entries as we find our what works and what doesn't!
Livia & Carol, thegiddyupplan.blogspot.com
Isla San Franciso is sort of the poster child for the islands in the Sea of Cortez. It's main anchorage is a large crescent shaped white sand beach filled with turquoise water .Add to that some great hiking trails through red rocks and along a ridge that offer fantastic views it is a perfect setting.
We've been here a couple days now -- of course, we are sitting out another norther! Luckily we have a nice spot in the anchorage so have still been able to get to shore to walk the beach and hike the hikes.
We're down to only 4 days until we're supposed to be in La Paz -- we have reservations at Marina Palmira for December 1st. We can't believe how fast the month since we put Cetus back in the water has gone! We've enjoyed 11 of our favorite anchorages so far and will add a couple more before we go into La Paz. We've hiked old hikes and conquered some new ones and have been able to swim in our "pool" around the boat nearly every day -- and lots of beachcombing thrown in, too. We've tried to enjoy the Sea to it's fullest, for once we get to La Paz we'll be in work mode preparing Cetus and her crew for the big sail to the Galapagos!
Right now we figure we're about 2/3rds of the way to the Galapagos (from Gig Harbor) -- because our GPS says it's about 1900 miles (as the crow flies) from here to there -- and the same GPS also tells us that we've traveled about 4500 miles since we left Gig Harbor in June of 2009 -- but some of that was up and down in the Sea.
So as our time in the beautiful Sea of Cortez comes to an end, we are looking forward to the new adventures that lie ahead!
|Blog Posts: Travels
Heading south from Santa Rosalia we were able to climb to the top of two big hills (we like to call them mountains) that we hadn't conquered before.
The first one was right off of El Burro Cove in Bahia Concepcion. We could see the switchback trail from our anchorage, but two years ago when we tried to find the start of the trail with some other cruisers, we just couldn't tell where to go -- and at the base we couldn't see the switchback. This year, the trail head was marked, so we were able to hike to the top and were rewarded with a beautiful view of Bahia Concepcion.
On our next stop, at Punta Pulpito, we were surprised one evening to see some people pop up on top of that big prominence! We hadn't realized there was a trail leading up there -- but now that we knew it was doable we set out to shore with Prairie Oyster and climbed to the top! Another good hike and breathtaking view.
Yesterday evening brought a rare event for this time of year on the Baja Peninsula: Rain!
Even though it was just a trace of rain, it was welcome by everyone giving the boats a fresh water rinse -- something they only get at a marina.
We've been enjoying the beautiful Bahia Concepcion for the last couple days and will continue our journey south when the winds swing back around to the north tomorrow morning, and hopefully enjoy another good sail.

ISpirit Vodka Review
This Italian Vodka is a joint venture of the Arrigio Cipriani of the Cipriani family (known for Harry's Bar in Venice and other high-end Italian restaurants) and Lapo Elkhann of the Fiat family. Clearly, these two are quite the tastemakers with the Cipriani restaurants being the go-to Italian restaurants in Venice and New York and Fiat making some of the most sought after cars in the world. From my research, it also appears that Mr. Elkhann is quite the snazzy dresser, making global best dressed lists year after year.

BURLINGTON, N.C. (AP) -- The new director at the Burlington Animal Shelter says her employees made a mistake when they euthanized a dog a family planned to adopt.
Burlington Animal Services Director Jessica Arias told The Times-News of Burlington that the employee that talked to the family didn't properly file the contact information.
Arias was hired last month as Burlington's first Animal Services director. She says she is dealing with the employee and reviewing all the shelter's policies and procedures.
The family found the pit bull mix on Jan. 6, and animal services picked up the dog after it left their yard Jan. 9. The family told the shelter they were going to adopt the dog, but the word never got to all employees at the shelter.

291 Eaton Road | Mocksville, NC 27028
Flash is a beautiful, sweet but shy (estimated DOB 5/10/12), spayed female kitty, up-to-date on vaccines, and is litter-box trained. "Miss Independent" was determined to live on her own under a vacant house. She realized after living in her foster home since the age of 2 months, she was missing out on so much indoors. She has come a long way from hiding from any human to cuddling with her chosen few. She has the cutest meow, but a really loud purr. She is still working on first impressions with humans and other felines. Her self-confidence needs a boost, but after the trust is there, she is the most loyal companion. She gets along with other cats, but may need some time to get to know anyone new. Flash is still trying to keep her "Miss Independent" identity by keeping her own schedule of naps, play, hiding under blankets, and sprinting, but she is coming around to allowing someone else to spoil her. Call the Adoption Center at (336) 751-5214 to meet elegant Flash.

Item # FIZ2735
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Men's Road Bike Saddles in stock than that.View Similar Products
Fi'zi:k Antares - 7x9 Braided Rails $0.00
Fi'zi:k's Antares Saddle with 7x9 Braided Rails is intended for medium flexibility riders -- what Fi'zi:k refers to as 'Chameleon.' Don't be offended, Fi'zi:k divides its saddles into three design shapes for varying flexibility. Including the aforementioned, a snake and a bull round out what Fi'zi:k calls its Spine Concept.
Let's break down what this concept actually means. At the top of the heap, the serpent is designated for the most limber and the ox is intended for muscular, power riders like Greipel. So which is for you? Well, if you can easily touch your toes, then the Snake is your ideal saddle shape. However, if toe touching is as out of reach as a podium finish at the Tour, then a Bull designated saddle will support you best. And for those of right in the middle of these two profiles, your adaptability sets you into the Chameleon territory of the Antares.
The Antares' Chameleon profile is semi-narrow, and intended for riders who instinctively manage the body's position and weight over the saddle. This shape is perfect for competitive and recreational riders alike, as the shell is constructed from a forgiving, yet supportive, carbon-reinforced Rilsan. Extending this characteristic, the shell is lightly padded, covered with Fi'zi:k's durable Microtex fabric, and is supported by Fi'zi:k's Braided Carbon rails. The weave is filled with unidirectional fibers for added strength and road-tuned dampening, while also enabling Fi'zi:k to keep this Antares securely under the 160 grams mark.
The Fi'zi:k Antares with Braided Rails is 274mm long, 142mm wide, and available in the color Red. Please not that it is also compatible with Fi'zi:k's line of Integrated Clip System products.

SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) — Filmmakers have stopped production on a movie about the life of Gregg Allman.
The decision comes a week after a freight train killed one crew member and injured seven others in Savannah, Georgia, where the movie is being made.
"Midnight Rider" stars William Hurt as the Allman Brothers Band singer in his later years.
The accident took place just as filming was getting started.
A train crashed into the crew and its equipment on a trestle crossing a river. Sheriff's investigators said the film crew had permission to be on private property near the train tracks, but not on the tracks themselves.
Savannah officials say it's unclear how long the production will be shut down.

Royals Roster Moves
Trying to keep up with the Royals' roster moves? Then you have probably been breaking out the White Out a lot as we have made at least a move a day since last Thursday. Here's a brief rundown of all those move that have taken place in the past five days.
Thursday, May 10: Before the game, Royals optioned right-handed pitcher Brian Bannister to Omaha and reinstated right-hander Luke Hudson from the D.L. Then, following the game, the Royals designated right-handed pitcher Todd Wellemeyer for assignment and purchased the contract of right-handed pitcher Jason Standridge.
Friday, May 11: Kansas City placed catcher Jason LaRue on the 15-day D.L. with a contusion on his left shoulder and purchased the contract of catcher Paul Phillips. To make room for Phillips on the 40-man roster, the Royals transferred left-handed pitcher John Bale from the 15-day D.L. to the 60-day D.L.
Saturday, May 12: The Royals recalled right-handed pitcher Scott Elarton from his rehab assignment and reinstated him from the 15-day D.L. To make room for Elarton, the Royals optioned left-handed pitcher Neal Musser to Omaha.
Sunday, May 13: The Royals placed Hudson back on the 15-day D.L. (retroactive to May 11) with right bicep tendonitis. Bannister was recalled from Omaha to take Hudson's spot on the 25-man roster.
Monday, May 14: The team placed first baseman/outfielder Ross Gload on the 15-day D.L. with a torn right quadriceps. Infielder Angel Berroa was recalled from Triple-A Omaha to take Gload's spot on the Royals active roster. Just to note, Berroa was hitting .303 for the O-Royals prior to the call up. Also today, the Royals sent first baseman Ryan Shealy, who has been on the D.L. since May 1 with a left hamstring strain, to Omaha to begin a rehab assignment.
With all that cleared up, let's not forget the Royals begin a four-game series tonight in Oakland, 9:05 p.m. (CT) start time. You can find the game on both RSTN and Sports Radio 810 WHB.

I'm waiting for the important move: firing the career loser they call a "manager"
I'm not going to complain about the state the Royals are in. You all are making an effort to the culture of losing that I've seen from the Royals over the years.
But I do want to know what was the rationale behind putting Zach Greinke into the bullpen. He pitched fairly well, admittedly with a few hiccups, but I don't know if that warranted a demotion. Any explaination?
That's all.
Wow, that was the worst typed comment I have ever done. My apologies. I'm really not that grammar challenged.
And why is our prize prospect Billy Butler sitting on the bench?
Come up and see future royals in Burlingon, IA , class A ball, smallest city in america to have a full season minor league team, on mondays, its $1 to get in, $5 and change other nights,free parking every night, worth a road trip. check it out at gobees.com
Billy Butler has proven he can hit at AAA…why not give this talent a chance..not 10 games and ship him back…makes little sense,considering the offensive woes of this team…again..the future of this team is guys like Gordon and Butler.

I swore I heard them say something about Knott, maybe out or injured or both. Rumors off of tweets? I see nothing on here, so it obviously must not be true. Somebody tell me they saw him in class today and he looked fine.
The rumor is based off 2 tweets, none of them Iowa State players or coaches. One actually is off a tweet from that "journalist" for the Marshalltown paper that wrote he openly roots for Iowa and against Iowa State.

Its been the rumor that everyone has been talking about all week on this board.
They just threw it out there as they signed off, I didn't really catch all of it.
usually with ISU smoke = fire...
Always buying historically relevant ISU gear
So far, no real smoke. Just stinkbombs!
I hold out hope since he played the whole OSU game, even after the injury.
Well if it's reported on KXNO it has to be true. I just hope that Jay Norvell has the team ready to play on Saturday night. These Mountain West Conference games are really tough.
It's Prohm Time!!
One of the 2 idiots referred to a tweet this morning from a twitter account with "hawkeye" in it. Yeah, great source.
And I only had it on for the 3 minutes it took me to drive to work this morning.

Yeah, we may have dropped down in the BCS pecking order, but football is pretty much all we have now since Fred was such a bad basketball coaching hire.
Sounds like a ruse (sp?) to get people to listen to the pm shows.

"Rumor" was the he had a shoulder injury and was getting surgery. A poster "confirmed" it on CR but if I was betting money I would say its probably true. And I would know since I live in Spokane and haven't set foot in Iowa for nigh on 15 years.
So many people are so quick to be dismissive

Was that pebble to close to a vital organ to remove? Bike evolution being the way it is, dictates that if the belt was truly better all bikes would have it. How many are sporting the belt? Mostly cruisers? If you are the type of rider that may dissolve in oil it's a must have.
Sure I lose a little HP at the rear but so digging my shaft drive 1100 (Unless it breaks) ...
But didn't the first motorcycles have leather belts? That's a tradition I wouldn't want to explore!
My belt barely hold my pants..Maybe I should try a chain and see how that works out..

Both lemon and sage have long been used in natural medicine to treat a variety of skin conditions. These natural remedies both contain generous doses of antioxidants, nutrients that help your body defend itself against damaging free radicals, which contribute to disease and aging. Sage is also a powerful anti-inflammatory, capable of alleviating swelling and redness on the skin. Lemons have antiseptic properties that can help eliminate some of the bacteria that lurk in the pores and cause acne. The Bliss Lemon and Sage collection combines these powerful elements into a unique line of skin care products.
The Bliss Lemon and Sage range invigorates and soothes from the moment that you open any of the products and inhale their refreshing scents. In addition to their aromatherapeutic value, the products in the Bliss Lemon and Sage line address a multitude of skin issues, including fine lines, wrinkles, breakouts, dryness and dullness. With products to soothe and heal from head to toe, the Bliss Lemon and Sage collection offers the ultimate indulgence for you to enjoy or to share with a friend.
Discover for yourself what nutritionists and natural medical practitioners have known for years: the nutrients in lemon fruit and the herb sage can heal the skin and contribute to overall wellness. The Bliss Lemon and Sage collection combines these natural ingredients into a line of refreshing products for your skin care and bathing regimens.
Bliss Lemon and Sage Body Butter has an amazing hydrating effect on areas all over the body that are plagued by severe dryness. Using the power of sodium hyaluronate with therapeutic lemon and sage, the body butter restores lost moisture and helps to prevent dehydration from reoccurring. Gentle enough to be used for a rich blast of moisture any time during the day, the body butter also contains vitamins A and E for age-fighting benefits.
Bliss Lemon and Sage Body Butter Lite offers the same anti-aging benefits and moisturizing capabilities as the original body butter in a more lightweight formula. The product comes in an easy-to-use pump that you can keep on your desk for a dose of moisture whenever you need it. The fluid is also fast-absorbing, so you can rub it on and then continue immediately with your daily activities.
Transform your tub into a luxurious aromatherapy treatment with the Bliss Lemon and Sage Soapy Suds. In addition to being a pampering bubble bath, the solution doubles as an effective skin cleanser for the sink or body wash for the shower to remove makeup, oil and impurities without drying the skin.

On my old sendmail setup, I had several aliases, that sent to mulitple accounts. I have recreated that on Zimbra, by creating a class of service, that keeps that email for a day before deleting them. Then created the alias email address, with the alias class of service. The alias email address has multiple email accounts it forwards to. It is working great, but sending duplicate emails when forwarding.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this?


text:
I have installed many zimbra connectors before without any problems.
Now I have run into an error I can not solve. I have tried just about everything, uninstalled / installed outlook2010 4-5 times and same with zimbra connector.
One thing is now when I do a clean install of everything so I do not question the zimbra to add a new account.
Is there any kind person who knows how to solve the problem?
