Taking the Long View of a Hockey Dispute
A current cause celebre in the sportswriting world is the New York Islanders' decision to revoke the media credentials of Chris Botta, the managing editor of the noted Isles blog NYI Point Blank.
The backstory reads like a soap opera: Botta worked for the Isles for more than 20 years, was instrumental in establishing the team's Blog Box back in 2007, and NYI Point Blank was sponsored by the Islanders when it debuted. Botta is one of the most respected hockey bloggers around and also one of the most successful, averaging 1.5 million page views a month.
I'm going to leave thoughts about what happened between Botta and the Islanders to others – you can find the basic story here, read pointed takes by Stu Hackel of SI.com and Greg Wyshynski of Yahoo Sports, and follow this link to hear Botta discuss the issue with New York radio host Mike Francesa. Instead, I'm going to focus on the implications.
On one level, this is part of a larger story for the NHL: The league has given its teams wide discretion in deciding how they approach the subject of bloggers and media credentials, and different clubs have different thoughts on that and different policies.
Many of Botta's defenders are upset because they think Botta isn't being treated like a journalist, and because they object to what they see as an attempt to muzzle journalism. But I can't help seeing the controversy as part of a potentially much bigger story. It's one that has little to do with blogs vs. newspapers, and has far-ranging implications for any person or organization seeking to report news – whether it's sports or any other variety of it.
As sports journalists, we see the world as a place full of stories to tell and truths to be unearthed – and along the way, we hope we can bring the personalities of the playing field to life and move the occasional reader to tears or anger or joy. But that's a pretty limited perspective. To get another one, let's think of things like a team or league, and step back to the way things were not so long ago.
The essential power of newspapers was never the journalism they practiced or their role as civic watchdogs – those were happy consequences of a much more basic power: Newspaper publishers had a hammerlock on the localized business of printing material and distributing it speedily and efficiently to a mass audience.
If you were a department store that wanted to get news of a sale out to a good percentage of local consumers, your best bet for doing so was the local newspaper. Ditto if you were a car dealer that wanted people to know prices had been slashed on last year's models, a bar touting a Saturday night music bill, a local government agency required to publish public notices, a guy trying to sell a slightly used lawnmower or a small business looking for a secretary. You turned to the newspaper.
The same was true for a professional sports team wanting to build excitement among potential fans and get people out to the arena.
Teams had an additional advantage: Newspaper readers treated accounts of their games, strategies and potential future doings as newsworthy, meaning papers would devote reporters to covering their games. For the price of press boxes, steam-tray cuisine, the infrastructure of interviews and locker-room scrums and help with travel arrangements, teams got coverage and public awareness.
Of course, sometimes that coverage was about things the teams would rather have gone ignored: losing streaks, locker-room turmoil or other woes. But the publicity was always better than a lack of it, and so relationships developed between teams and leagues and reporters. But all of it sprang from that monopoly on printing and distribution.
Today things are different in a way that's still astonishing to think about: If you have a computer and an Internet connection, you're a publisher. You have the digital equivalent of a printing press and a lightning-fast world-wide distribution network sitting on your desk – or in your pocket, disguised as a phone. The newspaper's hammerlock on that business is gone, and the news industry's struggles are consequences of this.
This really is the stuff of revolutions – but what the champions of blogging and social media and other DIY platforms sometimes miss is that "everyone can be a publisher" really does mean "everyone." It doesn't just mean little guys who once could only be heard by writing letters to the editor or calling radio talk shows. It also means big guys – powerful individuals and government agencies and industry associations and giant corporations. If you want to get a message out quickly and efficiently to a mass audience, you can do it yourself – or seek out one of an increasing number of alternatives to the newspaper.
Athletes and agents are ahead of teams and leagues in this regard – they already break news themselves that once would have gone to a friendly or persistent writer. But teams and leagues will get there, too – they're already experimenting with how to do so. Witness this arrangement between the New Jersey Devils and Gannett, which I wrote about last spring. Or look at how MLB.com covers its own teams with in-house writers.
As this trend continues, teams and leagues will inevitably reconsider the bargain struck a century ago with news organizations. Right now, bloggers sometimes have to battle for access that long-established news organizations generally take for granted. But that reflects familiar practices and existing relationships, not eternal truths. They're no more the way things will always be than the assumption that the newspaper is where you turn to place a classified or a help-wanted ad.
Before too long, teams won't look at credential requests based on whether the person asking is a blogger or a newspaper reporter or a trained journalist or a diehard rooter. They'll look at the requester's influence and audience and how useful he or she will be to the team's publicity goals, and consider the request against all the other options available for getting the message out. (In that regard, Botta's 1.5 million monthly visitors are much more relevant than his medium or his background.)
This seems like a new calculus, but it really isn't – it's just that teams never had the choice before. Now, they're beginning to understand that they do.

Shopping on a budget (without having to sacrifice on style and quality) requires a high level of shopping proficiency. It's not enough to shop sales at bigger name stores, because they are often still much more expensive than most people would like. However, there's no need to fear, because a gem in Philadelphia by the name of Buffalo Exchange offers unique styles of clothing, great music, and a friendly staff - all without making your wallet want to cry.
Located at 1713 Chestnut Street, this national thrift chain often goes unnoticed due to its old exterior and minimalistic, pale interior. Remember the old saying, "Don't judge a book by its cover," and be sure to apply it here. The most important component of a shopping experience should be the product (unless you really want to pay extra for a store's ritzy atmosphere).
Buffalo Exchange stinges on the decorative and maintains a plain decor, accompanied by light rock and indie melodies. The mannequins, on the other hand, are styled to perfection, giving shoppers a taste of the wonderful fashion concoctions that they can create within this style wonderland. The clothes itself oozes a combination of vintage-chic, hipster-with-a-fashion-sense, and cute-indie style. It's fair to say that the outfits you find at Buffalo Exchange will help set you apart from the crowd. What's even better is that because it's a thrift store, you won't be left penniless and full of regret.
My advice for shopping in Buffalo Exchange: Thoroughly search through the racks, because the best pieces often hide among the masses. This is a store for shoppers that aren't afraid to step outside the box, try something new, and project their own unique style. And, of course, while you're exploring don't be afraid to actually try on some pieces. By the time you're down shopping, you'll be styled to such perfection that you'll definitely be able to make fetch happen. Sorry about it Gretchen!
Buffalo Exchange, 1713 Chestnut Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103, (215) 557-9850, Monday - Saturday 10:00 a.m. - 8:00 p.m., Sunday 12:00 - 7:00 p.m., www.buffaloexchange.com

The soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.
'Step forward now, you soldier,
How shall I deal with you ?
Have you always turned the other cheek ?
To My Church have you been true?'
The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
'No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep...
Though I worked a lot of overtime,
When the bills got just too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand.
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
'Step forward now, you soldier,
You've borne your burdens well..
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell.'

Minot's best days ahead

The city lacked too much sympathy for flood victims to take credit for the recovery. Greed ruled the recovery just as it rules oil. The local and outside volunteers deserve the bulk of the credit for our recovery. The charm of this once serene and peaceful city is--

Three pitchers from the University of Oregon baseball program were selected in the 2010 Major League Baseball First-Year Player Draft on Tuesday.
Senior Justin LaTempa headlines the class, as he was selected by the Los Angeles Angels in the 12th round (384 overall). Redshirt junior Drew Gagnier was selected by in the 17th round (523 overall) by the Detroit Tigers. The final Oregon player to be chosen on day two of the draft was senior Zack Thornton. The right-hander was taken in the 23rd round (695 overall) by the Oakland Athletics.
JUSTIN LATEMPA – 12th Round – Los Angeles Angels
Oregon's Saturday starter in the weekend rotation, LaTempa returned the diamond in 2010 after missing most of the 2009 season with a shoulder injury. He ended his senior year with a 6-3 record and 3.65 ERA in 15 starts. In 88 and 2/3 innings on the mound, the right-hander dealt 68 strikeouts and held opposing batters to a .252 clip.
LaTempa was named the Pac-10 Pitcher of the Week on May 3 after tossing a one-hit, complete game shutout in a 6-0 victory over Washington State on May 1. Following that outstanding performance, he was also named the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Pitcher of the Week, the Pro-Line Athletic National Pitcher of the Week, the CollegeBaseball360.com Primetime Pitcher of the Week, the College Baseball Insider National Pitcher of the Week, and was named to the College Baseball Foundation National All-Star Lineup.
Some of LaTempa's biggest moments on the mound this season included surrendering just three runs – two earned – over 6 and 1/3 innings, and being credited with the win in Oregon's series-clinching 8-4 upset of then No. 1 UCLA on April 17. He also tossed six innings, and allowed two earned runs on nine hits while striking out four in a 5-2 victory at Washington on May 22.
LaTempa ended his collegiate career last Sunday. He put the Ducks in position for the win after throwing six innings, and allowing two runs – one earned – on seven hits and three walks while striking out one in Oregon's 4-3 victory over 17th-ranked Connecticut in game five of the Norwich Regional.
His performance earned him a spot on the Norwich Regional All-Tournament Team.
This was the second time LaTempa had been chosen in the MLB First-Year Player Draft. The Huntington Beach, Calif., native was selected in the 22nd round (678 overall) by the Arizona Diamondbacks in 2008.
DREW GAGNIER – 17th Round - Detroit Tigers
A 2009 Pac-10 honorable mention selection, Gagnier was Oregon's closer in 2009 with a team-high seven saves. Entering the 2010 season, Gagnier was named to the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association Preseason Stopper of the Year Watch List.
As a redshirt junior, Gagnier finished 2010 with a 0-2 record, 3.18 ERA and four saves. He made 23 appearances for the Ducks and tossed 22 and 2/3 innings, while striking out 25 and holding opposing batters to a .247 clip. During his two seasons with the Ducks, Gagnier has made 46 appearances on the mound – the most of any Oregon reliever over the last two years.
For his career, the right-hander posts a 3.08 ERA and 1-2 record in 52 and 2/3 innings on the mound. His 11 career saves are an Oregon program record, while the native of Santa Cruz, Calif., also totaled 55 strikeouts and held opposing batters to a .186 clips over the past two seasons.
This is the second time Gagnier was selected in the MLB First-Year Player Draft. Following the 2009 season, Gagnier was chosen by the Oakland Athletics in the 14th round (423 overall).
Gagnier's older brother Lauren currently plays for the Triple-A Toledo Mud Hens of the Detroit Tigers minor league system.
ZACK THORNTON – 23rd Round – Oakland Athletics
Another pitcher to battle back from injury, Thornton was finally healthy after a shoulder injury plagued his junior year with the Ducks.
Thornton finished his senior year with a record of 9-0, as his win total ties for the Oregon single-season record. The Oak Park, Calif., native was named Pac-10 honorable mention after posting a 3.40 ERA in 12 starts and 17 appearances, while pitching a total of 90 innings and dealing 73 strikeouts.
The Ducks' won five Pac-10 series during 2010, and Thornton was credited with the win in four of the series-clinching victories.
He pitched three shutout innings of relief, and struck out four before being credited with the win in Oregon's 6-5 upset of then No. 1 Arizona State on April 2, and also pitched 4 and 2/3 innings of one-run relief while striking out four in Oregon series-clinching 9-6 upset of then No. 22 Stanford.
He was also credited with the win in Oregon's series-clinching 6-1 victory over Washington State after holding the Cougars to one run on four hits while striking out six in six innings of work. Thornton helped Oregon to another series-clinching victory and was credited with the win after allowing just one unearned run in 7 and 2/3 innings on the mound while striking out four in a 5-2 win at Washington on May 23.
In his last appearance in an Oregon uniform, Thornton helped the Ducks win their first game of the Norwich Regional in a 5-3 victory over No. 2 seed, host and 17th-ranked Connecticut last Friday. In six innings on the mound, Thornton scattered eight hits and allowed two runs – only one earned – while striking out six.
This is the second time Thornton has been drafted in his baseball career. After two years at Ventura College, Thornton was selected in43rd round of the 2008 MLB First-Year Player Draft by the San Francisco Giants.

I recently found out there are such things as PC monitors with TV capabilities (or TVs that can be PC monitors), and the idea kind of tickles my fancy. I'm thinking of getting one of these gadgets, and if I do, I will connect it to my PC via HDMI (my graphics card has builtin HDMI), so that I also get sound to the TV. The reason for this is because I have a 2.1 sound system which I want to use both on the PC and the TV. Basically, I want the configuration to look like this:
Cable --------> TV --> 2.1 Sound System
PC --HDMI--> TV --> 2.1 Sound System
My question is: can I use a setup like this? Can I not have a classic VGA monitor? Will I be able to see non-graphical interfaces (such as the BIOS, GRUB, a Linux terminal, ...) through HDMI on the TV?
I use Windows 7 and Ubuntu.

From the slopes of Mount Etna, Sicily's live volcano come some spectacular wines. It takes passion to grow grapes and make wines on an active volcano, so you better do it right. Passopisciaro winery crafts special red wines using the native Sicilian grape Norello Mascalese to its full potential. Passopisciaro also makes fantastic white wines using native Sicilian grapes as well as a Chardonnay from one its slope side vineyards.
Contrada Chiappemacine, 2010 is light ruby red with aromas of cherry and strawberry. The palate follows the nose with plenty of red fruit and earth with smooth tannins that lead to a long finish. Contrada roughly translates into cru. This means that the grapes for the Contrada Chiappemacine are grown at different vineyards grown at different altitudes on the slopes of Mount Etna. The Chiappemecine is the lowest vineyard on the slopes.
Franchetti Red, 2009, named after the winery's owner, Andrea Franchetti, is a blend of Cesanese d'Affile (80%) and Petit Verdot (20'%). It is dark ruby red with dark red fruit and plenty of minerals. The palate is alive with blueberries and a nice jammy quality with a peppery finish.
Rosso Passopisciaro, 2010, is light red with a complex nose of cherry, wet slate, leather and earth. The palate displays tart cherry with wild flowers and plenty of earthiness. Smooth tannins with nice acidity leads to a long dry finish.
These wines might not be able to find, but ask your wine merchant to order some for you and wait to be amazed!

Wine lovers in Beantown, listen up. Right about now you may be wondering just what you're doing freezing your keisters off in the depths of yet another winter. But January provides at least one good reason: the Boston Wine Expo.
There are very few reasons that I'd venture out to Boston in the middle of winter, but let me tell you, the Boston Wine Expo is almost enough of a reason for me to jet on out there from San Francisco. Almost, but not quite. However, if I lived anywhere within 100 miles of the Boston, I would be at the Seaport World Trade center on January 22nd and 23rd.
The Boston Wine Expo claims to be the largest public wine tasting event in the entire country. I don't know if that refers to the crush of people who usually attend this event or the folks that are pouring. 300 different exhibitors pouring more than 1,800 different wines. is definitely a lot no matter how you slice it.
There are so many different options for what you can do (seminars, guided tastings, food pairings, dinners, concerts, you name it) and what sort of tickets you can buy to do them (reasonable to super expensive), I'm not even going to try to summarize what's on offer. Go check out their web site and figure it out for yourself. What I would be most interested in personally are the grand tastings where you get to taste a lot of wine, and their special Grand Cru Wine Lounge where you pay more to taste a lot of even better wine.
If you enjoy wine there's very little excuse not to go have a looksee at what is certainly the best opportunity to educate your palate that you'll get all year, let alone in the dead of winter.
The 20th Annual Boston Wine Expo
Saturday January 22 and Sunday January 23, 2011
2:00 PM to 6:00 PM
Seaport World Trade Center
200 Seaport Blvd.
Boston, MA, 02210 (map)
Tickets range in price from $95 for a day of tasting to $175 for a full pass. Buy them online in advance to save money and avoid standing on lines when you get there.
And remember my tips for making the most of these large public tastings: get a good night's sleep before hand; show up with a full stomach; wear dark clothes; drink lots of water; and for heaven's sake, SPIT if you want to learn anything!

By Imogen Sarre
At first glance, this lengthy post seems as intimidating as getting into the theatre industry itself. So that at least some people read what's at the bottom, please find a nice summary of the main points so you can merrily roll along to an appropriate section:
Introduction: why choose a career in theatre?
How to get a job in theatre: general tips
Understanding the variety of off-stage career options open to you:
From the outside, the theatre working world can feel an impenetrable one - obtuse, unfamiliar, and cliquey. So why should you choose to work in theatre?1) The people. Everyone's shared love for theatre, the closeness of the industry, and the fact that all theatre is a fundamentally collaborative effort, generates a friendly and supportive working environment.
No one's going to hide it: it's tricky to get to get jobs in theatre. Employees are rigorous about needing specific experience and there's a lot of competition for every position. Work experience and internships are obviously the best way forward because they build up your CV and, if you make a positive impact on your employer, like the working environment, and are lucky enough for a job to turn up at the right sort of time, they're the best chance you have of getting yourself future work. But you stand a much better chance of hitting the ground running if you're proactive about meeting people and getting as much experience as possible:
A resounding YES!
If you live in London...
Even if we say so ourselves, we offer superb "West End Work in Theatre" courses over the Easter Holidays and Summer Holidays. You'll get an insight into the behind-the-scenes work in a West End theatre, from box office, ushering and front of house, to lighting, stage door, stage management, theatre management and producing.
If you live further afield...
Most of our regional venues host work experience placements, with participants benefiting from exposure to various theatre departments (including areas such as ticketing, marketing and customer hospitality) as well as getting the opportunity to chat to and shadow theatre professionals. (NB: most of our venues don't have costume, make-up, production or stage management departments in house, so to get experience in these areas you'd need to contact a producing theatre).
To register your interest for Work Experience, visit the Work Experience page for your theatre through ATG's Creative Learning website. Many of our venues hold additional events to introduce young people to offstage careers, or visit local schools and give workshops and talks, so do also keep your eyes peeled for that.
ATG's 3 month paid office internship
Applications for ATG's 3 month paid office internship are next open mid-2016.
Having personally graduated from ATG's office internship scheme into a job at ATG, I hope that the enthusiasm with which I now shine forth its glories is taken as sincerely as it is given:
The next round of recruitment for our office internship will be advertised on the Careers section of our website.
Other ATG internships
Other opportunities across ATG include internships in our Accounts Head Office in Woking, with Sonia Friedman Productions, First Family Entertainment, and at our Glasgow, Brighton, Bromley, Richmond, York and Stoke venues, as well as a couple of others which run on a more ad hoc basis dependent on department requirements. Please keep checking the Careers section of our website for advertisements.
Working in partnership with City Gateway, ATG offers year long apprenticeships in Revenue Management within the Ticketing arm of the company, and another one working in IT. Working with North Hertfordshire College, White Light Ltd and the Association of British Theatre Technicians ATG pilots a groundbreaking technical apprenticeship programme from September 2013 for a year. Four apprentice theatre technicians will be based at ATG's regional receiving houses, will benefit from training and work experience with partner organisations, and will gain the EDI Level 2 Certificate in Technical Theatre Support.
Graduate Schemes
ATG's groundbreaking pilot scheme will begin with two Graduates joining the company in September 2014. ATG seeks to nurture exceptional young leaders in theatre management and administration, equipping them for managerial positions across its departments, to create an excellent workforce from the roots up. The programme will last two years with a broad range of placements in the first year to develop a strong business foundation, followed by specialist placements in the second year. There's lots more information about ATG's graduate scheme on this blog post, plus the chance to sign up to the mailing list and check out some FAQs here.
All the websites below are fantastic resources, but also check out A Younger Theatre's helpful compilation of alternative London theatre internship schemes for some ideas. Bear in mind that lots of theatres only publish openings on their own website, so it's worth regularly checking them. Find ATG's recruitment opportunities here.
Crazy days: you can work in the theatre and NOT be an actor. Often, working backstage or in arts management seems to imply that you harbour secret fantasies of having your name up in big sparkly lights. Far from it, far from it: although an interest in theatre is pretty key, what you like about it and the skill set you need for it can be as varied as you like. Whether you like working with your hands or being up and about on your feet all day, are artistic or organised, enjoy people management or dealing with customers, thrive on variety or administration, or simply like the smell of a theatre and the magic of making a production happen, the job diversity out there - even in this very small sector - is heartening.
Get Into Theatre outlines most of the possible theatre career routes you can take, with handy job-getting tips plus job explanations and specific advice from theatre experts. From the cast to the creatives, the people who work backstage to make the production actually happen every night to the arts management lot, just realising quite how many options there are out there is a pretty good start. Here's a selection of the jobs available to you, but don't forget about fundraising, ticketing, general management, arts education, HR, IT, or accounting roles:
While you're still at school (or, frankly, even after you've left it), we can't recommend enough the importance of doing as much theatre-related stuff as possible. We have a big flowery bunch of Creative Learning schemes to help get you hooked on the wonder that is the theatre industry:
We also hold lots of special projects around the UK, and our Creative Learning officers offer career days and workshops...
Please don't be put off by the fact that theatre doesn't fit neatly into the classic job mould, or how overwhelming the first foray into the mire of options might feel. It's all too easy to let your dream job - that all-elusive one that is just waiting to fit perfectly into your skill set and interests - be the one that got away. And as much as it's about being in the right place at the right time, it's also about taking the right steps to make that luck happen.

Musser Fruit Farm Research
Clemson's researchers have developed a rootstock, "Guardian™" Brand BY520-9, that is one of the most widely used rootstocks in the Southeast. It was developed at the Musser Farm in cooperation with the USDA Agricultural Research Station in Bryon, Ga. This rootstock is resistant to peach tree short-life complex, which was once a devastating problem in South Carolina. Prior to its release growers in South Carolina and the entire Southeast were losing thousands of trees to the condition, which translated to millions of dollars annually.
The "Guardian™" Brand BY520-9 rootstock was released in 1994 as an alternative to previously popular rootstocks. Testing of the rootstock showed that it outlived both Lovell and Nemaguard on peach tree short life (PTSL) sites.
The seed is produced at the Musser Fruit Research Farm and is distributed and sold to licensed producers through the South Carolina Foundation Seed Association.
"Guardian™" Brand BY520-9 peach rootstock has been selected to receive the 2006 American Society for Horticultural Science Fruit Breeders Working Group "Outstanding Fruit Cultivar Award." The recipients of this award from Clemson University include Mr. Billy Newall, Dr. Greg Reighard and Dr. Eldon Zehr. The recipients from the Agricultural Research Station at Byron are Dr. Tom Beckman, Dr. Andy Nyczepir and Dr. Dick Okie.
The main building totals 6,300 ft2 and houses the farm office, laboratories, fruit packing line, cold storage facilities, growth chambers, wet labs, work bench areas, computer stations, and farm management and technical staff offices. Other facilities in addition to the main building include an equipment workshop with an attached plant pathology laboratory, a greenhouse, a shade house, a pot lot, two equipment sheds with enclosed storage rooms and cages, a pesticide handling facility with retention pond, seed processing area, a weather station, two wind machines, and two remote research/storage buildings used by the Departments of Plant Pathology and Entomology.
The facility was planned as a model fruit research center for the Southeast. Interdisciplinary teams of scientists from the disciplines of horticulture, entomology, plant pathology, packaging science, post harvest physiology, economics, soils, engineering, meteorology, and molecular biology cooperate to create new information to advance the fruit industry.
The Musser Center has an excellent collection of commercial peach cultivars, rootstocks, and related Prunus species. Current orchard acreage maintained for horticulture, plant pathology, physiology, and entomology research and extension programs are 50 acres of peaches, 4 acres of apples and pears, 2 acres of minor fruits, and 1 acre of small fruits. Edible landscaping has been implemented around the buildings for academic teaching.

On my recent press trip to Australia, not 24 hours after getting off the plane I found myself winding down country roads amidst the pastoral rolling hills of the Yarra Valley. I arrived mid-harvest, to friendly, purple stained hands, and sighs of relief at a vintage that everyone felt was one of the best in several years.
Not long after arriving in the valley, I spent an hour or two above it, getting the lay of the land from the air, and getting a chance to survey the damage from the deadly wildfires of 2009.
The destruction wrought by the blaze was astounding, with countless acres of blackened trees stretching far into the distance, flanked by fresh green undergrowth. Most of the wineries that escaped destruction still lost most of the vintage to smoke taint, though there were some small miracles for a few. One vintner showed me the only patch of vines that were burned at his property, yet they had managed to spring back to life and yielded fruit for the 2010 harvest.
For those unfamiliar with the region, Australia's Yarra Valley is a small winegrowing area about 80 miles to the East of Melbourne in the state of Victoria. The Yarra Valley is the oldest winegrowing region in Victoria, boasting vineyards established in 1838, shortly after the founding of Melbourne and the state of Victoria itself, and a vibrant wine industry that became quite famous by the turn of the 20th Century. Shifting preferences towards fortified wines as well as regional economic trends led to the disappearance of wine production in the valley between 1921 and the early 1960s.
The Yarra Valley is billed as one of Australia's cool-climate growing regions -- with maximum summer temperatures notably cooler than both Bordeaux and Burgundy -- but the region's climate can sometimes include a long slow "indian summer" which is the prime determinant of whether the Bordeaux grape varieties planted there manage to fully ripen.
I was in the valley during this period of warm, breezy fall, and could appreciate the magic of Pinot Noir having been harvested weeks before, while the Cabernet and Cabernet Franc were just about ready to bring in.
My trip above the valley led me to be able to say that there really is no one specific valley when it comes to the Yarra, and no real uniformity even within the Upper Yarra and the Lower Yarra regions. The land is folded and bumpy and pocked and sloping, interrupted by ridges and ravines, and crisscrossed by creeks. The soil types are varied and complex, and there is some debate about what really characterizes the best vineyard sites, but most agree that the vineyards with the more northerly aspects tend to be better, and those with some more elevation and slope tend to be the best.
The region, which represents roughly 2% of Australia's vineyards and 0.5% of the wine production by volume has about 85 wineries. Interestingly, most are on the smaller side, and many do not export. In fact, quite a number of wineries sell only through their "Cellar Doors" which is the Australian name for their tasting rooms.
I had a chance to visit with several wineries in the valley, as well as sit down to a tasting of a number of smaller production wines made in the area. The notes below are some of my favorites.
2008 Giant Steps "Sexton Vineyard" Chardonnay, Yarra Valley
Palest gold in the glass with a very nice shine, this wine has a nose of cold cream and nice golden apple aromas.

A light woody coffee note emerges on the finish that is quite appealing. Balanced and delicious. Score: around 9. Cost: $33. Click to buy.

Kendra Leigh Baskett or Kendra Wilkinson (born June 12, 1985), professionally known by her maiden name, is an American television personality and glamour model. She is widely known for being one of Hugh Hefner's three girlfriends and for her role on the E! reality television series The Girls Next Door, on which her life in the Playboy Mansion was documented.
Weight : 163 lbs
Height : 5 Feet 4 Inch
Hugh Hefner's ex Kendra Wilkinson, once made a career out of her killer bod. Starring in reality TV show The Girls Next Door, she was often filmed in daring and revealing cossies, so had to be bikini buff at all times.
But after settling down with her American football star hubby Hank Baskett and getting pregnant with their son, Hank IV, her weight soared to over 74 kilos as she chowed down on the fried food treats which she usually banned.
"I would order two cheeseburgers and 10-piece chicken McNuggets from McDonald's and eat it all in 10 minutes," she confesses. "But I'm not usually a big-time junk food eater."
Kendra Wilkinson's Diet
Ditching the take aways, Kendra has introduced loads of grilled chicken and fresh veg into her diet – "I'm trying to cut out red meat, so for dinner I have grilled chicken and veggies. I don't like steamed vegetables. I like them raw. For lunch, I love salads."
She's also reduced the size of her meals, but increased their frequency, saying, "It's about portion control, healthy choices and not mixing proteins and carbs in the same meal because they digest differently."
- Combine cup of Special K with 1.4 cup of rice milk.
- Grapefruit is good because of the citric acid.
- Pizza but keep it vegetarian. Make your own with a whole wheat English muffin, light tomato sauce, and light cheese.
- Spinach salad, high in iron good for new mommy's.
- Turkey burger, with fresh tomato and wrapped in lettuce with baked sweet potato fries.
- Yes to pasta and no to preservatives. Whole wheat spaghetti with fresh tomato sauce and fresh parmesan.
- Pistachios — 40 kernels.
- Strawberries with fresh whipped cream.
Kendra Wilkinson's Image Gallery:
[nggallery id=47]
Kendra Wilkinson's Workout:

Upper body:
- Using the pull-down machine do 12 reps of each for three circuit.
- face away from the machine with abs tight and pull bar down behind your head and then return to the starting position.
- Face the machine, with a wide grip lean back at an angle and pull bar to your chest then return to starting position.
- Reverse your grip so palms are facing you and bring bar to your chest again then return to starting position.

CB2 Nixes Morini Expansion Plans
Michael White's team just cannot convince neighbors that they need more Morini in their lives.
Last night Michael White's team hit another snag in their plans to expand Osteria Morini to the space next door: Community Board 2 shot down a liquor license alteration app, largely because of heated objection from a handfull of neighbors. Georgette Fleischer gathered 221 signatures in opposition of White's plans. A source told Grub that eleven board members were in favor of granting the license alteration, but the NIMBY arguments prevailed.

In case you missed the announcement on WWE "Monday Night Raw" this week, The Ultimate Warrior was announced as the first inductee into the 2014 Hall of Fame. The induction will take place during WrestleMania XXX weekend in early April in New Orleans. WWE Chairman Vince McMahon offered his reaction to the announcement:
The Ultimate Warrior was the most intense, colorful, competitive and outspoken Superstar in sports entertainment history, and his contributions to WWE were extraordinary. We are thrilled to induct The Ultimate Warrior into the WWE Hall of Fame.
The Ultimate Warrior was one of the most energetic superstars in WWE history, always charging to the ring at high speed during his entrances. His power was nearly unmatched, as he could steamroll through his opponents often with great ease. One of his most well-known matches throughout his career was his showdown with Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania VI in Toronto. On a night where he walked in as the Intercontinental Champion, he defeated Hogan in the middle of the ring.
This is an interesting selection for the WWE Hall of Fame. There was a lot of obvious tension between the Warrior and WWE through the years, and the announcement of his impending induction has been met with a mixed reaction. Considering several names not currently inducted, such as Randy Savage, Owen Hart, etc., many are surprised that he is on the list to join some of the biggest names in the wrestling industry. Warrior took to his Twitter page on Wednesday to address the speech that he will deliver:
First time in my WWE career everyone is in total, absolute agreement agreement: "You don't want to miss the #UltimateWarrior #WWEHOF speech." I agree
Statement? Sure. First one to try to limit #WWEHOF speech to 140 anything - characters/words/pages/minutes/hours - gets clothesline.
It can be assumed that a new inductee will be announced every Monday night until just shortly before WrestleMania XXX, so now all attention will be focused on who else is on the list this year. One name that has been rumored is William "Paul Bearer" Moody, who passed away several months ago. It is widely believed that Moody would be inducted alongside The Undertaker when he came up for induction discussion, but he could possibly be put in this year. You definitely want to pay attention over the next few weeks to see what happens.

UCLA (12-11, 7-5) saw its four game winning streak come to an end at California as the Golden Bears earned a 67-58 win in a Pac-12 contest at Berkeley which featured two of the hottest teams in the conference. Cal, now 18-6, 9-3, improved its home court record to 11-1 and won its ninth game in its last 10 outings.
Cal broke open a close game by connecting on six of its first nine shots to open the second half of play on a 13-4 run and take a 40-30 lead at the 15:50 mark. The Golden Bears moved the lead up to 53-41 at the 10:34 mark on a basket by freshman guard Brittany Boyd and went on to take its biggest lead of the game, 57-43 at the 9:08 mark on a basket by freshman post Reshanda Gray.
UCLA used a 12-0 run to climb to within 57-55 on a three-point basket by sophomore guard Thea Lemberger with 3:52 to play after holding the Golden Bears without a point for over six minutes. Boyd's driving lay in with 2:42 broke the Cal drought and made it 59-55. The Bears took a five-point lead when Gray hit one of two free throws for a 60-55 advantage at 2:06. Cal free throws produced its final seven points of the contest to hold off the Bruins.
Cal took a 27-26 lead into the locker room of a hotly contested first half of action in which neither team led by more than five points. UCLA scored the final four points of the half to make the margin one at the break. The score was tied five times and there were six lead changes in that first 20 minutes of action. Markel Walker led UCLA with 10 first half points. The Bruins were forced to play much of the first half without the services of Corinne Costa, who set a school record with seven blocks in the first meeting of the two teams which was won by UCLA, 60-55. Costa picked up her third personal foul at the 5:36 mark and saw just eight minutes of action.
Walker led UCLA with 18 points, but had a nine-game streak of double digit rebound games stopped with five on the night. Senior guard Rebekah Gardner added 16 points and Lemberger finished with 10. Gray led Cal with 17 points and 14 rebounds.
The Bruins play next at No. 4-ranked Stanford on Sunday at Noon in a game televised by FSN.

I was eliminated from the League tournament in short order as is the standard. I played the hand badly - I decided to limp AQ UTG and then when it was raised and called in a few spots opted to flat call again. I think I should have just shoved here as it looks so much like AA/KK.
Anyway, flop was Q, T, X and I shoved over a chunky lead from one of the flat callers (Slider) and he had a set of tens to leave me drawing very thin indeed.
I also drank far too much, and promptly spewed off £960 in the cash game, to leave me back to square one in so far as cash games go since I returned from Vegas.
Maybe I'll learn one day :(

I have gotten out of the habit of listening to music. About the only time I do so is when I am exercising. It is difficult for me to find artists that I like. I am not into country or rap and it seems that the music I like is from the 1990's or early 2000's – artist like Lisa Stansfield, Natalie Merchant, Tracy Chapman, Oleta Adams, Leona Lewis. So tonight I went searching for some music. And I did find some possibilities.

Packaging design for a free sample of seeds from Nina's Nursery.
Text problems here too. The logo is too close to the margins, the low kerning of the Free mark (which looks better on red instead of orange), the extremely small size of the text in the side and rear sides and finally the curly font used in that piece too (you just don't use that kind of fonts in such works).
On the other hand, beautiful background, vector drawings and color set.
All the best,

Yep, there's some gradient mesh in there (the flowers, the pest spray and the fertiliser). Gradient mesh is so hard, I don't think I'll ever get the hang of it!

When you're
looking for the perfect pet, turn to the Internet. There's no better place to
find out about appropriate breeds and the best breeders.
However, the Internet is full of traps for the unsuspecting
pet lover. A loophole in federal law has spawned an upsurge in puppy mills, large-scale
facilities that breed dogs or cats in often-unsanitary conditions without regard
for the individual animal's welfare.
"What most people don't realize
is that there is no regulation of the people who
do large-scale breeding," says Stephanie Shain,
director of outreach for Companion Animals for the
Society of the United States. "Just because
someone is selling dogs over the Internet doesn't
mean they run a reputable outfit."
a pet from a puppy mill frequently leads to heartbreak for a pet owner, who must
deal with the physical and psychological fallout experienced by animals raised
in deplorable conditions.
The Humane Society and other animal welfare
groups in support of the Pet Animal Welfare Statute (PAWS), a bill
introduced Congress in 2005. The bill would regulate puppy mills
by requiring any commercial breeder who sells more than six litters
of dogs or cats, or sells more than 25 puppies or kittens a year,
to be licensed by the federal Department of Agriculture. The bill
also would allow the government to regulate the flow of companion
animals from overseas locations. Currently that trade is not regulated.
to startMany Web sites are dedicated to helping consumers find the
most appropriate pet. The first step is to make sure that your lifestyle is compatible
with a particular type of companion animal. Different types of dogs and cats as
well as other pets have different needs for companionship and exercise.
might think that since you are a busy, active family that an active dog might
best suit your needs," Shain says. "But if your activities mainly consist
of going to soccer and ballet practice while the dog sits at home by itself, that
most likely isn't a good fit."
The American
Veterinary Medical Association offers a guide
to pet ownership and selecting the appropriate pet. The site lists
questions to ask yourself before settling on a particular type of
Costs are an important issue to consider before
getting a pet. Even if you get a pet from a shelter or rescue group,
there are still initial and ongoing costs involved in owning a pet.
Veterinary expenses include checkups, immunizations and care for
a sick pet. Some breeds of dogs and cats are more prone to certain
medical conditions than others, which is another reason you should
fully investigate a breed before you select a particular type.

The flamboyant luxury liner featured three rear axles and six wheels, plus a complete hot tub for extra comfort after a long day at the office.
