L'Auberge Provencale was thrilled to team up with Linden Vineyards last year on June 23rd, 24th & 30th for Linden's Annual Barrel Tasting. The talented culinary team at L'Auberge Provencale paired the cuisine to complement the latest wines available from Linden. The Kingfish stole the show and went outrageously well with Linden's Sauvignon Blanc. No one could resist the Lamb chops as they sipped on the 2008 Hardscrabble Chardonnay. This amazing event drew in over 750 wine enthusiasts from the area who visited the winery over a three-day spree. Mother Nature was on our side and the weather was as good as it gets in the Shenandoah Valley. The food and wine was flowing as spirits ran high, and we were delighted to be able to take part in such an event.
If you missed the Barrel Tasting, but love Virginia wines, we invite you to visit our Virginia Inn and Restaurant and partake in one of our self guided or chauffeured wine tours. Our Virginia Wine Country Tours include other local vineyards and wineries including Delaplane, Three Fox, Veramar, Barrel Oak, Pearmund Cellars (who won the Governor's Cup this year), Philip Carter, La Grange, Naked Mountain and so many more. All of these fantastic Virginia Wineries are just a quick ride from the inn. After your complimentary tasting certificates are used, head back to L'Auberge for our Prix Fixe 5 Course Menu or 6 Course Tasting Menu with our exceptionally selected wine pairings. Our wine pairings feature wines from not only the vines in the Shenandoah Valley and all around the world, but of course we pair the Kingfish with Linden's Avenius Sauvignon Blanc. It's that good!
If the barrel tasting sounded like your kind of event and you're sorry you missed it, mark your calendar for a Special Wine Dinner at L'Auberge Provencale on June 26th, hosted by Jason Bise from The Country Vintner. Call us for details!
On April 29th, 2011 Prince William and Kate Middleton tied the knot with an estimated 2 billion people tuning in to witness this momentous gala of commitment, love and matrimony. Across the pond at L'Auberge Provencale, in our own slice of Provence located in the heart of the Shenandoah Valley, we slipped in a private wedding ceremony for starry eyed couple Kim and Chuck. The guest count was only a modest two while the rest of the world's eyes were glued to their televisions!
At L'Auberge Provencale, we recognize that the whole world doesn't have to be invited to make it the wedding of your dreams. For couples looking for a more private affair, or who wish to "just do it already," we are here to help with our Intimate Elopement Package. Just because you're looking to elope doesn't mean you aren't entitled to a day you want to remember forever. Forget Vegas, City Hall and all the invitations! Pack a bag, call in sick to work, and let us do the rest!
Our Intimate Elopement Package includes everything you'll need for your undisclosed event with all the bells and whistles for your perfect day. Enjoy a private wedding ceremony in our enchanting gardens, orchard, sweeping back lawn, or in front of a crackling fire in our sitting room in the cooler months. Don't worry about a thing as we'll even provide the bouquet and boutonniere for the bride and groom!
After your nuptials have been exchanged, toast each other with a glass of champagne and a sampling of hors d'oeuvres. Have a reception for two at a private, romantic and reserved table in the whimsical dining room of our award winning Northern Virginia Restaurant. A Five Course Dinner for two is included in the package price. Our Pastry Chef will complete the celebration with an unforgettable Wedding Cake for Two. Consummate your love in one of our romantic suites and enjoy a two night stay built-in to the package price. Wake up refreshed, rejuvenated and starry eyed in the morning to enjoy a multi-course gourmet breakfast in our sunny peach dining room.
Wedding planning services are included in the package as well. Our talented staff can customize your elopement and even arrange a professional photo shoot so that when you're ready to share your day with friends and family you can recreate every moment. A special gift from the Innkeepers, a pair of commemorative L'Auberge Provencale Champagne Flutes, will ensure you'll never forget your special day!
If mom and dad would never forgive you, we'll allow up to eight guests to attend the ceremony, however, additional dinner and reception charges will apply. Our exclusive Intimate Elopement Package is available for a modest $1200 and alcohol, wines, taxes or gratuities are not included, unless otherwise stated.

Chapter 14: Orphans
Sirius half ran and half slid to his uncle's side. Blood had already pooled around his withered frame causing Sirius to wonder just how long he'd been there waiting. He ripped off the cloak, the blood stained shirt causing Cat to gasp from somewhere nearby. Sirius' eyes roamed over his body but the numerous cuts and punctures were almost impossible to distinguish. Taking his hands, his uncle guided him to the deep, potentially fatal, wound in his chest. Without hesitating, Sirius ripped open the shirt, grabbed the clean towels Cat had retrieved and pressed them into his uncle's skin.
"What can I do?" Cat asked, her voice stronger than either had expected.
"Tend to breakfast," Sirius answered distractedly as he threw open the latch on his school trunk with a nonverbal spell and then began riffling through the contents.
"No, I mean –"
"Cat," his uncle's pain-filled voice was as gentle as he could manage. "He can't worry about both of us at the same time. Tend to breakfast and keep yourself out of sight. He'll come for you when he's able."
With only a momentary glance backwards, Cat hurried out of the room.
"Sirius, I need you to find Dumbledore."
"No." Sirius pulled out the tin container of Remus' balm he'd been looking for and began applying it to the less deadly wounds. He couldn't explain the feeling in the pit of his stomach that told him Dumbledore was somehow responsible for this. Had he not asked about him, Sirius would never have known they knew each other. But something told him Dumbledore was not to be trusted, that he had his own agenda, and he was the last person Sirius was going to resort to for help.
"Thank you," his uncle said quietly as the balm healed the abrasions and lessened some of his excruciating pain. "But it's not enough, Sirius. You have to fetch him."
"Do you trust me?" Sirius backed away from him quickly, grabbing his cloak off the rack.
"Of course, but Sirius –"
"I'll be back," as an afterthought he grabbed the pitcher of water and sat it beside his uncle. "It won't take long." He hesitated, wanting to cling to his uncle…wanting to sit with him while someone bigger, older, and more responsible went for help. But he knew better than to expect that and with one last glance, he hurried out of the room and into the dark summer night.
It took him mere moments to reach his destination…it wasn't far and he had memorized all the shortcuts there even if he'd never actually visited the place. He paused, though, his hand in mid-air as he prepared to knock. He didn't want to do this…he didn't want to invade their quaint, blissful little world with his own agonizing tragic one. But he had no choice and he rapped loudly on the door with no thought to the lateness of the hour or the fear his appearance might instill on the unsuspecting inhabitants.
The door was opened slowly by a man near his father's age wrapped in a plaid dressing gown. He had his wand drawn and a deep furrow over his brow. "What's the meaning of this?"
"Mr. Potter, I need your help, sir,"
"Sirius Black?" A soft glow lit from the end of his wand as he strained to see through the darkness. "I haven't seen you since –"
"I know. Sir, please," Sirius' voice broke. "I need you help. Can you come with me?"
He was unnerved by Sirius' presence, Sirius could tell. Of course, Sirius thought silently, who wouldn't be afraid of a late night visit from a Black? He cursed himself for thinking anyone would be willing to help him and he turned to leave.
"Sirius, wait-" he reached out and pulled Sirius back. "What's happened, Sirius? Where are your parents?"
"They are gone for the weekend, sir. It's not them. Please, I apologize but I have to hurry. I'm sorry I bothered you at all."
"Dad, its okay," James familiar sleepy voice, the one Sirius had awoken to almost daily for over a year, echoed from somewhere just behind his father. "Go with him."
Mr. Potter glanced from one boy to the other and Sirius could hear the click of lost time reverberating in his brain. "I have to go," he finally managed.
"Just a moment, Sirius, I'll grab my cloak."
Sirius led him to Grimmauld in silence, refusing to even tempt his good fortune and having James Potter as a roommate. When they reached the house, Sirius turned away from the main entrance and towards one of the secreted passageways. Mr. Potter's unease was evident as Sirius opened the door.
"It's best for you not to enter the main house," Sirius explained apologetically. "My brother is home and has several friends over."
"Certainly." Although his voice was strong, Sirius was sure he heard him breathe a sigh of relief.
"Just this way," Sirius said quietly, leading him through the corridors towards his room. Sirius hesitated at the door, afraid of what might be awaiting him, but as soon as it swung open James' father sprung into action.
They acted as if they knew each other but neither seemed comfortable in saying so in front of Sirius. His uncle seemed relieved at his prescence, though, which assured Sirius that he'd done the right thing.
"Sirius, this is going to be a rather difficult wound to heal," he turned away from Sirius' uncle to face him. "I can do it," he added hastily, seeing the fearfilled look in Sirius' eyes, "but it's probably best that you leave."
"No," his uncle's voice, already stronger than when they arrived interrupted them.
"He's just a boy!" he protested.
Sirius' uncle shifted uncomfortably, his voice quiet. "No, he's not…not in this household."
Further protest was quelled and Sirius sat quietly as he watched James' father work. He heard tormented screams of agony as the healing process began and Sirius forced himself to look away when tears began to stream down his uncle's face. Rays of the sun were pouring into the room before James' father finally turned to Sirius with a satisfied look.
"He needs rest, Sirius. He doesn't need to be moved. When are your parents expected to return?"
"Not until late tomorrow."
"That will be plenty of time. He'll be his regular charming self within hours but you must keep him from moving, do you understand?"
"Yes, sir," Sirius nodded, his eyes drifting to his uncle and his deep, peaceful slumber. "Thank you, sir." Sirius extended his hand in thanks but a heavy weight rested down on his shoulder instead.
"Sirius, you did a very brave thing by coming to me tonight."
"It was all I knew to do." Sirius tried to make light of his comment but the penetrating gaze made him glance away.
"Are you all right, son?"
Sirius hesitated, caught off guard for one of the few times ever in his lifetime. The tenderness and caring from such a stranger made his heart wrench with longing. "Yes, sir," he answered simply, afraid his voice would give away the emotions welling inside him.
"Take care of yourself, Sirius and if you ever need anything, I believe you know where to find me."
"I'll see you out."
"That's not necessary. Get some rest, Sirius, you look near a coma yourself."
Sirius nodded and as he departed, Sirius went to find Cat. He had never been to her room and, in his exhausted state, it took him a few moments to figure out where his mother might have placed a muggle's bedroom. He traveled quietly, for fear of garnering Regulus' attention, but finally found her in one of the far wings that hadn't been used in generations. Pushing past the cobwebs, he tapped lightly on the only door that seemed dust free.
"Cat, it's me."
She opened the door in a rush and pulled him inside, closing the door behind her. His eyes surveyed the sparsely furnished room without really taking in his surroundings. As if in a daze, he dropped heavily onto the metal cot. The thin cotton mattress and dingy sheets sunk with his heavy weight but he barely noticed the change. He stretched out and rubbed his face with his hands to try and wake up. "He's alive."
"Thank goodness," Cat heaved a sigh of relief that seemed endless.
Having no strength to move, Sirius shifted his head to see her better. She wasn't facing him and he could swear she was whispering a prayer from the tiny drop in her head. Her dingy floor length skirt hung loosely on her frame, wrinkles crisscrossing the fabric, its frayed edges brushing across the tops of her bare feet as she moved. Her white blouse, normally kept in pristine condition, was splotched with stains of grease and bits of unidentifiable crumbs. He knew it was from fixing breakfast…she had to have been so consumed with worry over his uncle's condition that she became distracted from fulfilling her duties. He was thankful his parents weren't around to witness whatever food she had managed to throw together and took comfort in the fact that Regulus had probably been too drunk to notice what it was anyway. He attempted to lift his arm but his muscles wouldn't cooperate and it merely dropped just off the edge of the bed. "Come here," he wiggled his fingers to try and get her attention.
"Oh, Sirius," she sank down next to him, using a nearby blanket to wipe away some of the dried blood and sweat that were still clinging to his face and neck. "You look exhausted."
"I'm a bit tired," he nodded and gave her a lop-sided grin. "Look, I know you have questions, Cat…"
"You're okay, you're uncle's okay," she shook her head as she spoke. "Really, Sirius, it's probably best that's all I know."
Sirius smiled and gave a tired laugh. "I was just going to say it's probably safer for you not to know." He stretched his hand underneath the pillows and gave a loud yawn. "Did Regulus ever get up?"
"Yes," Cat's voice was disgusted. "All of them. They ate everything in sight then passed back out in the drawing room."
"Probably better that way," he murmured as his hands latched onto something underneath her pillow. Sliding them out he fingered the colorful ribbons he had given her the summer before. They were tattered and a bit faded, but they still added color that was absent throughout Grimmauld. "You've got a pretty crappy room here, Cat," he said as he tied the ribbons onto her wrist…the only part of her body he could reach without moving.
Cat glanced around as she helped him tighten the ribbons. "It is rather dismal but I don't spend much time in here anyway."
"Do you have any other clothes?" he asked, his words beginning to slur as his eyelids fluttered closed and then opened again as he fought sleep.
"Sirius," Cat tugged his head back in place on the pillow. "We can talk later, get some rest."
"Do you?"
"No, they are all just like this."
"We'll go shopping then" Sirius murmured. "I hate that outfit. It makes you look like a damn orphan."
He heard the catch in her breath but neither recognized or understood it. He did feel the gentle caress of her lips on his forehead though as he began to drift off.
"Wake me in an hour."
"No, you need sleep."
"I need to be with my uncle," he countered tiredly. "Wake me in an hour."

INSTRUCTOR: Jean-Michel Rendu, USA
This course will show how direct and indirect costs, opportunity costs imposed by operational constraints, and other factors, such as political risk, legal, environmental, and regulatory requirements, must be taken into account.
The course's focus:
Mathematical equations are developed and graphical analytical methods are displayed, which can be used to solve most cutoff grade estimation problems. It is shown how minimum cutoff grades are estimated and how they must be modified to take into account constraints imposed by mine or mill capacity, or by limits on sales volumes.
Multiple practical examples are given, illustrating the role of cutoff grades in mine planning, in allocating material to different processes, in optimizing mill operating conditions, and in poly-metallic deposits.
Examples also show the relationship between cutoff grades and the design of pushbacks in open pit mines, the development of new stopes in underground selective mining, and the optimization of block sizes in caving methods.
The relationship between mine selectivity, deposit modeling, ore control and cutoff grade is also discussed. Included in the course of registration is a copy of the instructor's book "An Introduction to Cutoff Grade Estimation".
Please note:
It is strongly recommended that participants bring a laptop.

DMC (Dynamic Matrix Control) has been used successfully in industry for the last decade. It can deal with constraints and unusual dynamic behavior directly. It also shows a good control performance for the servo problem. Relatively, it can't reject disturbances systematically. We propose a modified DMC method to control the regulatory process more efficiently. The proposed DMC method makes the control output by subtracting the estimated disturbance from the control output of the original DMC. Here, the disturbance is estimated by a new disturbance estimator. It shows better control performances than the original DMC.

Living Classroom via Internet?
I have been looking for information on an organization that sails the world as a living classroom with a direct internet link to students back in the US. As they travel from port to port, the students study the history behind each destination. When the boat pulls in, the crew goes ashore and sends back information that the students request and pictures via the internet. Fantastic Idea! My only problem is I don''t know the name of the organization! Has anyone heard of such a thing?

Very rich, very yummy. 3 truffles will last you more than a day.
- Jessie McKeown
My ice pack failed so mine were melted but after a few hours in the fridge they were okay. They have crystallized a bit but it didn't ruin the awesome flavor.
- Julie
Yummy Treats
This chocolate treat is one of my all time favorites, but it is not a good idea to order it in the hot summer weather--even with the ice pack, it arrived melted.
- Donna
The Right Stuff
Love this stuff. I have been avoiding chocolate looking for something that won't mess with my medical issues and this is the stuff, and it's yummy so I'm really happy at the moment :D
- Steffanie
Pricey, but delicious.
- Jen
not so great
More of a hard chocolate shell with liquidy hazelnut butter filling. IMHO, not worth the price.
- Andrea
Delicious but Spendy
It is quite spendy for just three little candies, but SO DELICIOUS! I will save purchasing these again for a special occasion due to the price.
- Regan
I read the reviews before purchasing this for Valentine's for myself and boyfriend. I was pleased with the positive reviews and was excited to try the product.. But I was not expecting them to be as delicious as they were!!! YUM. As an individual on the paleo diet, my mind was blown. My non-paleo boyfriend said after eating them, "those were paleo?? Wow!! I have got to step my game up"
In other words, try these!!
- Casey
Rich and Delicious!
These are worth the money - The truffles are so rich and decadent that even a chocoholic like me can be satisfied with just a couple. Bonus points for being raw and vegan.
- Alana
These are full of flavor and absolutely delicious. But I was expecting more truffles....there are only 3 little truffles in the box. Seems a little pricey for what you get.
- Danielle
these went to my valentine so not sure how they taste, but nice gift
- Mary
Too salty!
This would be a winner if only it didn't have so much sodium in it. The salty taste is overwhelming. Too bad, it would be delicious otherwise.
- Sheila
My Favorite!
These are such a great treat and won't spike your blood sugar through the roof. I love my LOVE truffles! :)
- Thea
really good
This product is the best. My wife loves them on most orders from Thrive this product is included.
- george
Amazing, try to only eat one!
Such a creamy and tasty morsel. There are three in the tiny box. Truly a treat
- Amelia
Best chocolate on the planet!
These truffles remain my absolute favorite bites of raw chocolate bliss. They are pleasantly sweet with a firm, thick shell and soft, rich, fluffy filling. No junk, just pure deliciousness.
They are a decent size, so one is sufficient to satisfy a chocolate craving. I much prefer these to the Raspberry Rapture variety.
These truffles are absolutely delicious -- not too sweet, creamy, and addictive.
- Susanna
Absolutely delicious and decadent.
- Allison
Oh Em Gee
When I open the box of three, I always say I will only eat one...then, before I know it, they are all gone !
- Susan
I got these truffles from Thrive for my anniversary recently and gave them to my wife. She LOVED them! She has not stopped talking about them or wanting more since I gave them to her!
- Oliver
These truffles are amazing! The chocolate and hazelnut combination are to die for! I could go for some of these in my stocking this Christmas!
- Brittany
decadent and delicious. One piece was satisfying.
- Aubrey
These are the best raw truffles I have tried. I love the little chunks of sea salt. The only thing I didn't like was when the package was empty! Awesome - and definitely going to buy more!
- Elizabeth
a little bit o' heaven
I didn't really know what to expect with these.... but oh. my. goodness. They are so rich and decadent, but with only 3 grams of sugar in each, and such pure ingredients, these are a wonderful treat to have on hand. Need to order more!
- Lisa

As MNE's have matched each other in production efficiency and local responsiveness, the battle has turned towards innovation
new opportunity is sensed in home country and developed there as wellafterwards it is introduced internationally through subsidiaries -Gain input of subsidiaries into centralized activities -Ensure all functional tasks are linked to market needs
Can be improved by, Transfer of responsibilities across development, production and marketing, Panasonic: Transfer People, Ensure that all functional tasks are linked to market needs, Get Input of Subsidiaries, Create links between headquarter and subsidiaries!
subsidiaries sense local opportunities and create their own solutionsPrerequisites are the splitting up of resources and the delegation of authority
Can be improved by, Empowering Local Management, Linking local managers to corporate decision-making processes, Integrating Subsidiary Functions
Special resources and capabilities of each national subsidiary are available to other units as well Product developed by one unit is sold by others as well if that is beneficial
Combine resources from center and subsidiaries Take idea from A, expertise from B and scarce resource from C or Ideas from A, B and C or any mixture to create product that is then distributed to all
Simplifying, subconscious rules
Assumption that roles of organizational units responsible for very different things should be uniform, Don't generalize what needs how much standardization!
Assumption that headquarter-subsidiary relationships should have clear patterns of dependence/independence, Build and manage interdependence, Develop integrated network, Create proper inter unit integration
Assumption that corporate management has responsibility to make decisions and control uniformly, Interdependent units require flexible coordination
complex connections through which units source their supplies and materials, link flows of components and subassemblies and distribute finished goods
Formalize as much production procedures as is feasible, Formalization of management processes
represents the major strategic choices the company makes and therefore must be controlled at corporate level
Only top-level managers can make decisions, Coordination by Centralization
Tacit = can't be formalized, Socialization of local managers

Prayer and Intercession (31 of 40) by Jesus Culture Resources
This content is part of a series.Prayer and Intercession (31 of 40)
Series: Emerge: Kingdom
Jesus Culture - Banning Liebscher
Philippians 4:6-7; Ephesians 6:18-19
This week, we are going to talk about the power of prayer and intercession. God loves it when we spend time with Him! He loves to hear the voices of His children.
''As for me, I look to the Lord for help. I wait confidently for God to save me, and my God will certainly hear me'' (Micah 7:7).
Main Scriptures: Philippians 4:6-7; Ephesians 6:18-19
EQUIP: The fruit of a life of prayer and intercession is trust, peace, and joy. Our prayers should reflect Jesus' completed work and not the fears or anxieties that arise in this world.
Teaching Point 1: We can experience God's supernatural peace through relationship with Him (Isa. 26:3).
- Don't be anxious; be peace-full through prayer (Phil. 4:6).
When we trust God, we have peace. ''You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you'' (ISAIAH 26:3).
When we know who God is, we have peace. ''Those who know your name trust in you, for you, O Lord, do not abandon those who search for you'' (PSALM 9:10).
The minute we begin to feel anxiety, we can turn to the Lord. He wants to carry our worries for us. ''Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you'' (1 PETER 5:7).
We don't pray because ''it's the rules.'' We pray because of our relationship with Jesus. We know Him, and He wants to answer our prayers. ''I pray that they will all be one, just as you and I are one - as you are in me, Father, and I am in you. And may they be in us so that the world will believe you sent me'' (JOHN 17:21).
Don't be anxious about anything. Instead, be peace-full by putting your attention on God instead of your worries. ''Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done'' (PHILIPPIANS 4:6).
We practice living in peace by teaching our minds how to think. ''Fix ...
