The Cubs Over/Under on Wins is Set at 71
The pre-season ritual of BP releasing their preliminary PECOTA numbers is upon us and as expected the Cubs are in the bottom 5 of the league. They've got them tabbed at 71 wins at the moment, 3rd worse in the league with only the Astros and Marlins being worse. Apparently that doesn't include the recent Jason Hammel signing, which should be good for maybe a win on the positive side (maybe not). Of course, it's all just theory now, but until there's something practical to follow, forecasting and guessing are about as much fun as we're going to have around here.
I don't subscribe to BP anymore, but the link to the Cubs page can be found here and apparently it's particularly unkind to Jeff Samardzija (0.1 WARP forecast). Fangraphs posted the ZIPS projections last week as well, and they were much kinder to Samardzija (3.2 zWAR forecast). Both systems seem to think Castro and Rizzo should have solid bounceback seasons. The #1 Comp column on the ZIPS tables is always a fun read: Baez=Ripken, Soler=Candy Maldonado, Rizzo=Carlos Pena, Schierholtz=Randy Bush, Edwin Jackson=Jaime Navarro and so on down the line.
I'm taking the under by the way, I think TheJedi are gonna be a little reluctant/stubborn on bringing up Baez, Bryant and some others and then the mid-season trading will take it's toll like it did last season.
so the cubs are in on Suk-Min
so the cubs are in on Suk-Min Yoon...wonder if they see him as a starter or reliever.
he used to be a starter...worked pen last year (and on/off in years past) because of shoulder issues. *shrug*
Rizzo deal looking betterhttp
I sure hope that if Baez,
I sure hope that if Baez, Alcantara, Hendricks, etc are having good seasons in AAA that HoyStein doesn't hesitate to call them up June 1...July 1...whatever...if Barney, Castro, 3rd baseman X are struggling
Jorge Soler will be out of
Jorge Soler will be out of minor league options in 2016, so the Cubs will have only two more seasons to get him 600 AAA PA.
As things stand right now, it is unclear where exactly Soler will start the 2014 season. It might seem logical to have Soler start back at Daytona with his best buddy Albert Almora, get into a groove, and then get moved up to AA Tennessee in May or June. But if the Cubs want to get him 600 AAA PA before he runs out of options, Soler will probably need to spend at least part of the 2014 season and all of the 2015 season at AAA Iowa, which means starting the 2014 season at AA Tennessee and then getting a promotion to AAA by August, regardless of whether he has mastered AA by that point in time.
Hopefully Soler won't end up like Wily Mo Pena, who was signed to a major league contract as a teenager, and then ran out of minor league options before he was ready for MLB.
Not shooting anyone Rob...
Not shooting anyone Rob....just throwing in my unnecessary .02
Jackson and Vitters each had 450 At bats or so in AAA before getting brought up...Vitters put up .304/.356/.513 in 452 PA's.
I dunno....I would understand not bringing up the rooks I suppose.
I tend to think the "we
I tend to think the "we rushed Jackson and Vitters" stance is a euphemism for "these guys failed miserably, but there's no point in giving up on them just yet, so what else do you want us to say?"
The 600 PAs rule will be flexible and influenced by the situation with the MLB team as well as the performance of the individual prospects. If there is no 3B and Barney continues to hover around the Mendoza line and Baez + Bryant/Alcantara rake, what are you gonna do?
Sigh...that's probably true
Sigh...that's probably true Rob. It's logical.
Then I will hope for my guy Logan Watkins to get a shot! Lol
DUSTY B: With the change in
DUSTY B: With the change in the "Suiper Two" threshhold in the 2012-16 CBA, the approximate MLB Service Time cut-off for Super Two ststus in arbitration post-2013 was right about 2+120 (it was about 2+140 in the previous CBA), so if you want to avoid Super Two status with the player down the line (post-2016), you wouldn't want a player to make his MLB debut before June 15th. (Of course that supposes the player is brought up and never gets sent down again, as happened with Starlin Castro).
Also, we don't know if the Super Two threshhold will change again in the next CBA, and the next CBA actually might go into effect by the time any player making his MLB debut in 2014 is eligible for Super Two consideration. Maybe the threshhold will stay the same, maybe it will go down even further (it certainly won't go back up to where it was pre-2012), or maybe they will eliminate Super Two status in return for Article XX-B MLB free-agency after five seasons of MLB Service Time.
BTW, Javier Baez is not Rule 5 eligible until post-2015, so he doesn't need to be rostered this season or after the season.
Kyle Hendricks will be first-time Rule 5 eligible after the 2014 season, though, so a September call-up (if not earlier) would be perfectly understandable for him. (Arismendy Alcantara is already on the MLB 40-man roster).
Including Hendricks, there are presently 75 Cubs minor leaguers eligible for selection in the December 2014 Rule 5 Draft. Among the 75 are RHPs C. J. Edwards, Dillon Maples, and Tayler Scott, who are eligible even though all three were HS draft picks in 2011, and HS kids normally get four seasons before they are eligible for Rule 5 selection However, Edwards, Maples, and Scott are Rule 5 eligible post-2014 because all three were 19 years old on the June 5th prior to signing. It's unusual to have even one HS draft pick eligible for Rule 5 selection after four minor league seasons, but to have three at once is VERY rare.

Oops. Colin Rea leaves the game with injury.
Cubs optioned Justin Grimm to Iowa after the game. No corresponding roster move announced yet, but it could be Brian Matusz.
Marlins with a quick 4 spot vs Jaime Garcia. Osuna HR the highlight.
Brian Matusz, supposedly he has attachments. Hope it's not like an email with a virus attached.
One thing to remember about Chapman -- he can be magic, but his ERA is higher than Rondon's this year. 100+ mph is fun, but I'd love to see a few more sliders. I think he enjoys the crowd reaction from 103 mph.
"Diamondbacks designated RHP Josh Collmenter for assignment."
aww...he was my 2nd favorite crapballer. his control issues are rather severe at the moment.
Wow -- Chapman gives up a hit and everything completely caves in. I think the Cubs went into collective shock.
Stolen base with the pitcher holding the ball, WP that should have been caught or blocked, then Russell with a 2-out error on a routine play. Cubs handed them 2 runs. Throw in a Fowler bobble and it was a mess.
Hopefully, that is all out of their system now -- let's get a W tomorrow.
First time I've ever seen a base running slump -- he's made some poor decisions recently, but I thought it was a great idea to try to score there -- it's not like Heyward was going to get a 2-out hit against a LHP. Sliding feet-first into home is probably the safe (ugh) way to go, but it's hard to get the foot on the plate.
Yup. He got squeezed (twice) on the first walk, but, when you have one-run lead and the other team is trying to make an out -- take the out.
Wasn't fun!
Clearly the Cubs need to clear out the farm and trade for another closer
Where's Ed Lynch when you need him?
Those were more entertaining times.
I wonder if there's an actual cause to this because they were going up hacking at everything. Wonder if scoring a bunch of runs makes you feel like you.can swing at anything and hit it.
That second walk he gave Up was awful though with no pitches even close to being a strike. He was trying to pitch around bunt and that almost never works. That said Rondon should have been brought in after the first walk and should have been left in to finish the inning because he was looking like he had good stuff.
Remember when Bryant used to be able to run the bases with impunity?

The main lobby faces the lake with a cosy gas fireplace and relaxing chairs.
Two excellent restaurants within a few hundred feet for dinner, and a super free breakfast including fresh cut fruit, omelets, oatmeal etc etc. oh.. And the beds and linen were luxurious.

GREENBURGH, N.Y -- One team won the NBA title in 2008, reached the Finals again in 2010 and currently owns the best record in the Eastern Conference.
The other hasn't won a playoff game in the last nine seasons.
No, Knicks-Celtics isn't a rivalry. At least not according to Mike D'Antoni and Amare Stoudemire.AP Photo/Winslow Townson
Is the Knicks' historic rivalry with the Celtics back on? Not yet, Amare Stoudemire says.
The Knicks, winners of eight straight, trail Boston by four games in the Atlantic Division. They'll enter Wednesday's game against the Celtics brimming with confidence. But, according to D'Antoni, they don't have the credentials to call it a present-day rivalry.
"We haven't done anything yet," D'Antoni said Tuesday after practice at the team's facility. "Wait until we do something and wait until we've threatened them. I don't think [the Celtics are] thinking, 'Oh what a threat this team is.' So we're not there yet."
The Knicks have done plenty in the past five weeks, however, winning 13 of 14 to rebound from a troubling 3-8 start.
They'll face a Celtics team on a 10n-game winning streak. Boston leads the NBA in field-goal percentage and assists and is allowing just 91 points per game, tied with the Heat for the lowest total in the league.
"They're playing the best in the league right now," D'Antoni said. "This will be a nice test for us."
A nice test, for sure. But a rivalry? Not so, according to Celtics captain Paul Pierce.
Pierce, speaking to reporters after Celtics practice in Waltham, Mass., on Tuesday morning, dismissed the idea that the Knicks and Celtics are rivals.
"It's a rivalry?" Pierce asked with a big grin. "Man, y'all are letting me in on all the new stuff, all the talk. I didn't know we had a rivalry going.
"Hey, if that's what y'all want it to be, if it'll sell more tickets and get more viewers, then I guess so," Pierce added. "[The media makes] up the rivalries, we don't. To be honest, New York is playing well, they're in our division, and both teams are streaking, so it's going to be an exciting game."
The Knicks are a different team than the one that took the floor in the teams' first meeting, a 105-101 Boston win in the second game of the season. They lead the league in scoring (108.5 ppg) thanks in large part to Stoudemire, who has scored 30 or more points in a franchise-record eight straight games. They also are the top shot-blocking team in the NBA, averaging 6.76 a game.
But even with their improved play, Stoudemire isn't ready to call Knicks-Celtics a rivalry. He said on Tuesday that the Knicks needed to earn more "respect" around the league before they can rekindle any rivalries.
"We gotta make our mark first before we start any rivalry," he said. "[We're] just getting started regaining some respect here as a team; we got no room to start rivalries right now."

Melnychenko's lawyer: Court may cancel criminal case against Kuchma on Dec. 7
Dec. 05, 2011 20:22
Leonid Kuchma, Ukraine's former president
Photo by None
Mykola Nedilko, the lawyer of the former major of the State Department of Guards, Mykola Melnychenko, says that on Dec. 7 Kyiv's Pechersky District Court might cancel the criminal case against Second Ukrainian President (1994-2005) Leonid Kuchma."According to the summons received by Melnychenko's lawyer Pavlo Sychov, on Dec. 7 at 14.00 Pechersky District Court will start a hearing on a complaint of Kuchma's lawyers. I think this means that the complaint will be satisfied. This means that an instruction of First Deputy Prosecutor General Renat Kuzmin on the opening of the criminal case against Leonid Danylovych Kuchma will be cancelled, and the complaint will be satisfied," Nedilko said, while commenting on reports that Pechersky Court was planning to consider an appeal from Kuchma's defense team.
The lawyer also said that the authors of the appeal summoned former Verkhovna Rada Chairman and the leader of the Socialist Party of Ukraine Oleksandr Moroz to the hearing.
As reported, a criminal case was opened against Kuchma on March 21, 2011.
He is charged with abuse of power and official authority, which subsequently led to the murder of journalist Georgy Gongadze (Part 3, Article 166 of the 1960 Criminal Code).
Tapes secretly recorded by Kuchma's former bodyguard Mykola Melnychenko in the president's office have been declared to be material evidence in the case.

ST. LOUIS -- Give credit to Lance Berkman for his odd-looking cue-shot hit that bounded past Michael Young for a two-run single in the fourth.
Give credit to Albert Pujols for his diving stop of a Young grounder up the line with a runner on third and two outs in the sixth.
Give credit to Allen Craig for coming off the bench to deliver the go-ahead RBI single in the sixth inning.
Give credit to Marc Rzepczynski for escaping a seventh-inning jam and Chris Carpenter for a solid six-inning effort.
And in this chess match of a Game 1, credit Tony La Russa for the final checkmate, the latest in his string of postseason moves that have made him the stealthiest postseason manager since Connie Mack started Howard Ehmke in Game 1 of 1929 World Series.
The players win and lose, and the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Texas Rangers 3-2 in the opening game of the World Series, but La Russa's decisions -- and Ron Washington's mistakes -- played a key component in the outcome.
This was most evident in the top of the seventh inning. Craig's two-out single had given St. Louis a 3-2 lead. The Rangers had their 5-6-7 hitters up: Adrian Beltre, Nelson Cruz and Mike Napoli, aka the heart of the Texas lineup these days. La Russa brought in right-handed reliever Fernando Salas. Cruz singled with one out and Napoli walked on four pitches. You're up, Tony.
La Russa brought in the lefty Rzepczynski to face southpaw-swinging David Murphy, a .215 hitter with no home runs in 107 at-bats against left-handers. At this point, it become apparent that the Rangers have one major weakness: the lack of a good right-handed bat off the bench.
Washington sent up Craig Gentry, who is really a defensive speed merchant more than a hitter. He struck out looking on a 1-2 pitch that caught the outside corner. Or was maybe a bit outside. That brought up the pitcher's spot. La Russa had Octavio Dotel -- .145 against right-handers this season -- warming up in the bullpen.
Washington basically had three options:
1. Hit Yorvit Torrealba, his best right-handed bat left on the bench. Not a good one -- .256 with no homers versus left-handers. But Rzepczynski's crossfire motion is tough on lefties, so you had to send a righty up there.
2. Hit Esteban German ... a guy who hadn't had an at-bat since Sept. 25.
3. Hit German and hope La Russa would bring in Dotel. Washington could then hit Mitch Moreland, the lefty-swinging first baseman and the best bat left on the Rangers' bench.
I don't know if Washington was thinking La Russa would bite; maybe he thought German was his best option -- all he said after the game was, "I thought he had a good chance against Rzepczynski. ... In German's case, he's a contact hitter. I thought he can handle Rzepcynzski's offspeed stuff." He denied that he expected La Russa to bring in Dotel and stuck to his belief that German was the guy for that situation.
Regardless, La Russa didn't bite. Afraid of Esteban German? Not quite. Rzepczynski struck out the overmatched German on three pitches.
Washington, on the other hand, was afraid of Nick Punto. Yes, Nick Punto, the guy with the .249 career average and 14 career home runs in nearly 3,000 plate appearances. He intentionally walked him in the fourth inning with two outs to pitch to Chris Carpenter with a runner on second. Not the worst decision -- it used to be commonplace for NL managers to walk the No. 8 hitters 30 or 40 years ago, but you see it less often these days.
That one worked out when the Cardinals failed to score the next inning despite a leadoff walk to Rafael Furcal. Punto came up again in the sixth, with David Freese on third with two outs (after Wilson had fanned the hard-to-strikeout Yadier Molina). Carpenter was on deck. He'd thrown 87 pitches on this cold night and was hardly blowing the Rangers away.
It seemed pretty obvious La Russa would hit for Carpenter. Wilson gave Punto the old unintentional intentional walk on four pitches, a pretty inexplicable decision, even if it did ensure that Carpenter would be removed.
Craig hit. Washington brought in Alexi Ogando. Nothing wrong there, although: Why not just bring in Ogando to face Punto? Craig lined a 1-2 high-octane heater down the right-field line; Cruz dove feet first, but came up short, as the ball fell a few inches in front of him. Maybe with a glove-first dive he could have made the catch. It would have been a higher-risk play to attempt it.
Risk. On this night, that's how Ron Washington managed. He took a risk in not pitching to Punto. He took a risk in bringing in Esteban German. His risks didn't work out.
But it's only Game 1. Maybe he learned something about how La Russa will handle different parts of his lineup. But he shouldn't feel so bad: A lot of managers have been schooled by La Russa over the years.

The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Galcon As Object Lesson in iPhone App Development and Refreshing
Though an entire essay could be written on the subject of Phil Hassey's Galcon, one of the earliest really good games for the iPhone and iPod touch, we're not going to do that today. Instead, we're going to point to just a few things that are really interesting about where Galcon sits today at version 1.7, priced at $3, versus where it was when we reviewed it back in August of 2008 when it debuted for $10.
Galcon retains the simple but very effective planet-conquering gameplay that really showed off the value of a touchscreen back a year ago, with some additional enhancements.
It added a multiplayer online mode in version 1.2.
It received music in version 1.3.
And now it has received a substantial graphic redesign, including everything from the logo to the backgrounds and fonts.
The first pair of screenshots is Galcon from August, 2008. The next are from the new version of Galcon, which is in the App Store now. If you didn't check it out last year, now's the time, for sure. Due to the past updates, which have kept on making the title better, it's one of only a handful of iPhone OS releases that we have kept permanently in our iTunes Library awaiting updates over the past year.
Related Stories
A bold and noble move. I hope their substantial investment in preparing this overhaul this pays off for them, considering the necessarily-free upgrades for all current owners.
I wouldn't mind seeing Apple allowing developers to charge for upgrades sooner rather than later (I'm sure it's on their list of improvements). This would provide incentive for developers to continue improving quality in substantial amounts.

I'm trying to make a simple word game that has a database of words (which is preloaded or can be loaded by the user) that can be updated through website. I found this example and I got it to work. However, it wont work if I have an existing database. I'm new to this type of programming, so i've been doing research for 2 days now.
var db = openDatabase('db.sqlite', '1.0', 'Test DB', 2 * 1024 * 1024);
var msg;
db.transaction(function (tx) {
tx.executeSql('CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS vocabList(id unique, word, definition, weekNO)');
msg = '
Log message created and row inserted.
';
document.querySelector('#status').innerHTML = msg;
I commented this out to prevent creating the database (should i have not done that?)
db.transaction(function(tx) {
tx.executeSql('SELECT * FROM vocabList WHERE weekNO = 1', [], function(tx, results) {
var len = results.rows.length,
msg = "
Found rows: " + len + "
";
document.querySelector('#status').innerHTML += msg;
for (i = 0; i < len; i++) {
msg = "
" + results.rows.item(i).word + "
";
document.querySelector('#status').innerHTML += msg;
}, null);
If there is another more efficient way to do this, please point me in the right direction.

Second time that #1 spark plug blew out

Get a MECHANIC to cheeck it out should be able to repair with head on engine! Now like i said a MECHANIC!
your answer is not to the question, but appreciate the information. The head already has an insert in that will not come out. Timesert says head must be removed.
Then the repair wasn't performed correctly. Yes the head can be removed, eng. in vehicle! Still think a mechanic should check it out.
ok, Thanks guys

5.0 stars 3 totalReview Charles Peterson
Posted by Beverly
Chuck Peterson took enough time to speak with me on the phone in regards to my son's case. My son specifically asked me to call Mr. Peterson as he has some mental problems that makes it very difficult for him to speak to people. My son already has a different attorney, but thought his attorney was not doing enough for him in the way of defending him. Mr. Peterson explained he could not do anything more or different than what my son's current attorney is doing and he said he would not take money from me when there was nothing more he could do to help my son. And he explained the whys to everything. I found him to be very straight forward, helpful and honest.
Posted by Janet
I would describe Charles as being very professional, ethical and personable. The most emotional case Charles represented for my husband and I was the adoption of our daughter and we are so ever grateful. I have also recommended many friends and clients for representation with Charles and he has always had empathy, concern and integrity while helping them throught their issues. I will always highly recommend Charles you are the best and a pleasure to work with through difficult situations always there to listen and never judge.
Posted by a Criminal Defense client
After working with Chuck, although only a short time, it is easy to see why he is regarded as the best in the business.

The stars for this inn are for the room & facilities only. We had a horrible experience actually getting up to the mountain & even out of the parking lot in the morning, due to the weather. I think Snowshoe Resort was terribly, terribly unprepared for the snow storm they received & it cost tons of people a Friday there. More about that after the room review...
We stayed here this past weekend, in the middle of a blizzard. The rooms were slightly larger than a normal hotel room, with a good sized bathroom. Bed was comfy, pillows were fine, the rooms we stayed in had no fridge or microwave. The heater didn't work when we first arrived but was soon fixed. There is a restaurant inside the Inn, Brandi's, which had good food in big portions. There is a nice, clean indoor pool with 2 hot tubs & a smaller 'kiddie' pool. I think every stay includes a free breakfast at the restaurant, which is a hot buffett, also very good. This is a much cheaper alternative (on the weekend, anyway) to staying on top of the mountain.
Now for the problems with transportation. We arrived Friday morning, & were allowed to check in right away. We had lift tickets for that day & Saturday, but the roads were horrible due to a heavy snow storm, & we were told by the front desk they were running shuttles from the Inn to the top of the mountain every hour. So we waited. And waited. With tons of other people in the lobby. Finally decided to try it on our own (we had all wheel drive). Headed up the mountain & about half way up, there is a semi that jacknifed & blocked traffic. Now I know this is not Snowshoe's fault, but it seems like they could have had someone radio the Inn & let them know what was going on. Instead, there is a state trooper half way up the mountain, just not letting anyone through. Now, it makes sense to me that you put someone at the bottom of the mountain & not let cars up. Because we ended up with a huge line of cars, tons of which were light, low profile vehicles, getting stuck & trying to turn around. We got back down, then tried another way up, which we were told was blocked so they could bring a plow through & to go back the other way. So we did. And waited some more. By the time we got to the top of the mountain it was near 5. In Snowshoe's defense, they did let us switch our lift tickets to Sunday, but a lot of people had to drive back Sunday & didn't have that option. That night, everyone that had reservations at the top of the mountain apparently had to park at the Inn & take a shuttle, so the next morning, we couldn't get out of the parking lot. It was blocked at every entrance. The staff at the Inn had been told about 8 that morning that no one could get out, but it was over an hour later & nothing had been done about it. Luckily, tons of people had to physically move a van that was blocking an entrance, as The Inn staff never responded to this problem. Once we were out of the parking lot, the roads had been cleared & we ended up having an epic day skiing. We were just terribly, terribly disappointed in the way transportation & especially communication were handled at Snowshoe Friday.

Just wanted you to know that I was pleasantly surprised with my "Go-Parts" experience. I rarely buy online, and now that I'm older, I rarely work on my car. Recently, though, I could hear the bearing going out on the radiator cooling fan on my 2006 PT Cruiser. I finally decided to fix it myself. I'm glad I did. After buying a repair manual, I could see the repair would be a bit challenging. The auto parts store at the corner was asking over $200 for the part, and I'm sure the dealer would be asking well over $350. Add in labor and all the other extras they would want to charge me for (drain and flush radiator, etc.) and I anticipated the dealer charging over $600. I needed the part soon--it was getting pretty noisy and decided to quit driving the car on Wednesday. I ordered the part on Thursday afternoon. FedEx delivered it on Saturday morning. Perfect! With delivery, the fan cost me just over $100 from Go-Parts. By Saturday evening, I was back on the road. The experience could not have been any better. Unfortunately, I didn't find the flyer about making a video until after I was done! Probably just as well--I had a lot to learn. (o: I'm glad you're interested in customer satisfaction. It is the key to a successful business. Best regards, Wes Keyson Orangevale, CA

Price Quality Average: 4 / 5 starsWe've been living for about 2 years with a mirror on the car that was held on by duct tape. When my son-in-law told me about your website I was excited - and everything was exactly right. The part was easy to identify, and it arrived safely (a bit late, but we had winter weather weather combined with the holidays that slowed the delivery). And my husband and son-ibn-law were able to install the new mirror quite easily. I'm thrilled!!! Thank you. I will definitely use your website again when needed.by fleminja

King's Evil is another name for scrofula - a disease of the lymphatic glands, specifically tuberculosis of the neck. This disease was similar to consumption, and quite a large proportion of those infected (who also died) were under fifteen years of age.
And the cure for this disease? Historically, it was believed that the touch of the reigning monarch was the 100% cure. Originally, the king would wash the diseased parts, but later it became merely the king's touch which would effect the cure. Then the cured sufferer would be given a 'touch-piece', or gold medal. In order to apply for the touch, the sufferer would have to bring a certificate from the local vicar and churchwardens to state that they had not had 'the touch' before. Most of the touchings were performed in London, with Queen Anne being the last monarch to provide the touch.

The 2006 Tablas Creek Vineyard Vin de Paille is Tablas Creek's fourth bottling of this traditional Mediterranean technique for producing dessert wines. Ripe grape bunches are carefully laid down on straw-covered benches in our greenhouses, and allowed to dehydrate in the sun. When the grapes reach the desired concentration, we press them and move the juice to oak barrels for fermentation. The juice ferments until it reaches an alcohol level where the sweetness of the juice is balanced by the acids and mineral characteristics of the wine itself.
The 2006 Vin de Paille is a blend of four white Rhone grapes: Grenache Blanc, Viognier, Roussanne, and Marsanne. The grapes for our Vin de Paille were grown on our 120-acre certified organic estate vineyard.
The 2006 vintage was a study of contrasts, with a cold, wet start, a very hot early summer, a cool late summer and a warm, beautiful fall. Ample rainfall in late winter gave the grapevines ample groundwater, and produced relatively generous crop sizes. The relatively cool late-season temperatures resulted in a delayed but unhurried harvest, wines with lower than normal alcohols, strong varietal character, and good acids. Viognier began the harvest starting September 15th, followed by Roussanne and Grenache Blanc beginning September 27th, and Marsanne starting October 4th.
The wine, after pressing, was aged in new French oak barrels for 9 months before being bottled in May of 2007. It was released in October 2008, after another 18 months in bottle.
The 2006 Vin de Paille has a beautiful nose of honey, apricots and candied grapefruit, with flavors of caramel, nectarine, marmalade and spiced apples and sweetness balanced by citrusy acids. Its finish is lingering, with flavors of fig and peach. We expect it to age gracefully in bottle for a decade or more.
Updated tasting notes from a January 2016 vertical tasting can be found on the Tablas Creek blog.

One of the most frequently asked questions at the tasting room is also one of my favorites. "Which food do I pair with this wine?" At Tablas Creek we take food pairing very seriously. For each of our wines we offer recipes and food pairing suggestions. Each spring and fall, we invite our members to taste dishes created by local chefs to match our new releases. We also have a monthly column on our Tablas blog dedicated to this topic. Read More »

Oil was down in Asia on Tuesday as traders took profits following recent gains and ahead of the May Day holiday, analysts said.
New York's main contract, light sweet crude for delivery in June, dropped eight cents to $94.42 a barrel in the afternoon and Brent North Sea crude for June delivery shed 22 cents to $103.59.
"Prices are slightly lower but holding steady.... We're also seeing some minor profit-taking after yesterday's gains," Victor Shum, managing director of IHS Purvin and Gertz in Singapore, told AFP.
Oil prices finished higher on Monday amid expectations that monetary easing policies of major central banks would remain in place during meetings this week, and that the European Central Bank could even cut its key rate to boost growth.
