Last week, Wright Express Corp. (WXS) announced an agreement to acquire Fleet One - a fuel cards and fleet management information services provider - from private equity firms, LLR Partners and FTV Capital. The company will pay $369 million in cash for the purchase, which will be funded using its existing credit facility.
The acquisition is expected to culminate in the fourth quarter of 2012, subject to approval from regulatory bodies as well as other customary closing conditions. Merrill Lynch, a unit of Bank of America Corporation (BAC) acted as Wright Express' financial advisor for the deal, while FT Partners was the same for Fleet One.
The adjusted net income, excluding one-time charges, of Wright Express is expected to increase immediately following the takeover. Moreover, the company is anticipated to gain $100 million in present value of tax benefits due to the deal.
The acquisition will significantly strengthen Wright Express' fuel cards business as Fleet One has a strong footing in both over-the-road and local fleet markets, with about 210,000 active cards in circulation at present. These cards are accepted at 60,000 locations, out of which 6,700 are over-the-road locations.
The purchase deal will also enhance Wright Express' operating scale. Further, it will help the company to venture into the U.S. and Canadian heavy truck markets, where Fleet One has a strong presence.
Wright Express, which competes with FleetCor Technologies, Inc. (FLT) and U.S. Bancorp (USB), has been working on augmenting its fleet business and other payment solutions to widen its international presence. Recently, the company announced the acquisition of a 51% stake in UNIK S.A. - a privately-held payroll cards provider based in Brazil - for a consideration of US$21.9 million (R$44.7 million).
Wright Express also holds the option to buy the remaining 49% stake over the upcoming three years. The acquisition marks Wright Express' initial stride into the Brazilian market, which offers attractive opportunities for growth.
Earlier in May, Wright Express acquired CorporatePay – a company that offers corporate prepaid solutions to the travel industry in the United Kingdom - for US$27.8 million (GBP 17 million).
Wright Express carries a Zacks #3 Rank, which translates into a short-term Hold rating.

PSFK Conference New York Speaker: Carl Johnson
We're looking forward to having Carl Johnson, partner at Anomaly, join us at PSFK Conference New York on April 2. Carl will be part of our panel discussion about the pursuit of intellectual property and how it's changing the way agencies and new businesses operate. He will be joined in discussion by Bart Haney (fuseproject), Robbie Vitrano (Trumpet), Ben Malbon (BBH Labs), and moderator Danielle Sacks (Fast Company).
First, who are you and what do you do?
Carl Johnson.Partner at Anomaly.I'm trying, with my Partners, to create a company that doesn't look like one that has existed before…that has no boundaries…that is full of talented people we like and respect…that through creating a new business model has more choices than most…and that as a consequence is so stimulating and so much fun that the line between 'work' and 'life' is gone.Oh yeah …and to do this whilst not being distracted by a global economic meltdown.
You'll be sharing your ideas on our "New Ideas Agencies" panel. In one paragraph, can you explain what themes and ideas you hope to touch upon during the discussion?
What do we mean by IP? Why is it interesting? Why am I learning more now than ever before? Why is it hard? Why is collaboration the key? What have we learned from a relentless focus on it?
5 hyperlinks to sites that provide you with inspiration:
Thanks, Carl!

Whether you are looking for a new activity to add to your current exercise routine or you simply want to find an enjoyable outdoor activity during the warm summer months, kayaking may be a great option for you. The basic skills of paddling are uncomplicated to learn for recreational needs, but can be perfected over time to increase efficiency for more serious kayakers. Kayaking can also provide many health benefits for both those who appreciate the competition of sport and those who just want a fun, social activity.
The repetitive action of paddling over a long duration of time improves both aerobic and muscular endurance. The continuous paddle stroke and physical effort required to propel the kayak through water should keep the heart rate elevated and the muscles challenged. Because kayaking focuses primarily on the upper body for the basis of the movement, it should affect your cardiovascular system very differently than many standard aerobic activities, such as jogging or biking.
The added variety and emphasis on upper body musculature through hundreds, if not thousands, of repetitions will not only build muscular endurance, but strength as well. Kayaking provides great emphasis on the back, shoulders, arms and torso. Depending on your skills as a kayaker, the lower body can also become very involved. The added difficulty of working in an unstable environment, in addition to the trunk rotation necessary for this activity further increase the significance of core strength in the abdominal and lower back muscles, as well as the hips.
Similar to any aerobic activity, kayaking can also be used as a tool to achieve weight loss. Depending on your physical abilities and intensity of paddling, kayaking at five miles per hour burns roughly 400 calories per hour. Better yet – You are able to enjoy the benefits of creating a significant calorie deficit while appreciating the pure and simple, stress-reducing perks of being outside to enjoy the weather and the scenery. Being with nature will allow you to clear your mind and relax your body without the bothersome interruptions of everyday life.
Before you begin, be sure to invest in the proper safety equipment necessary for most water sports. In addition, finding an appropriate training program that will help you improve your core strength, upper body strength and endurance, aerobic conditioning, flexibility and balance will allow you to enjoy the sport of kayaking for many years.

Pirates Sign Colombian Catcher Roberto Noguera
International News
The Pittsburgh Pirates have signed 17-year-old Colombian catcher Roberto Noguera. He trained at the Baseball Academy of Gaujira (Academia de Beisbol del Gaujira) and he was signed by Orlando Covo on July 2nd. Noguera was born on May 15, 1997 which made him eligible to sign during last year's July 2nd signing period. According to this article in Spanish (which has three photos of Noguera, including him batting right-handed) he has already traveled to the Pirates Dominican Academy. Another article from April linked the Pirates to Noguera back then, but MLB has a period where team's cannot sign International players, so he had to wait until July 2nd to sign....

for Health Care Providers
1: He has prior psychiatric issues but a very low viral load: A case for shorter duration of treatment?
The patient is a 43-year-old white man with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1, a viral load of 64 IU/mL, and mild elevation of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and total bilirubin levels. An ultrasound examination of the abdomen indicated the presence of fatty liver disease. The patient has not consented to undergo a liver biopsy. He also has a history of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, panic attacks, and depression, for which he is not well controlled.
Question 1: Given the patient's low viral load, if he is able to be treated in the future, would one treat with a full course of therapy for 48 weeks or with a modified schedule?
Speaker 1: We have a patient with HCV genotype 1, but we do not know the levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), other liver enzymes, or albumin. It would be ideal if we could determine the stage of his liver disease to help us make decisions about treatment, as issues in his history suggest he may experience decompensation of mental health during treatment. In particular, it would be useful to know whether he has developed cirrhosis, but he has not consented to a biopsy.
There are three ways to think about cirrhosis: biochemically, clinically, and histologically. For this patient, we would need more biochemical, clinical, and histologic information by means of a liver biopsy in order to determine whether he has cirrhosis.
We do know that the patient's viral load is remarkably low. Nevertheless, enough virus was present to allow laboratory technicians to determine the genotype. Given the patient's low viral load and the risk of mental decompensation while he is on treatment, the question is whether to consider modifying the duration of treatment, if he is to be treated at all.
This introduces the concept of "rapid virologic response," or RVR. If a patient is undergoing hepatitis C treatment and becomes HCV RNA qualitative negative at 4 weeks, then this is considered an RVR.
If an RVR occurs, could we treat him for less than 48 weeks and still achieve a sustained virologic response (SVR)? This was successfully done for genotype 2 and genotype 3 patients in a study reported by the New England Journal of Medicine in which patients who were RNA qualitative negative at 4 weeks were able to achieve an SVR at 12 weeks instead of the usual 24 weeks of treatment. For genotype 1 patients, in a study reported in Hepatology, if patients were RNA qualitative negative at 4 weeks, 89% were able to achieve an SVR after 24 weeks of treatment -- instead of the usual 48 weeks of treatment.
At the same time, because this patient has such a low pretreatment viral load of only 64 IU, there is good reason to believe an RVR could be achieved. Thus, we could perhaps shorten his course of treatment if side effects occurred, and still achieve an SVR.
If this were an otherwise uncomplicated genotype 1 patient, we would predict a 55-60% likelihood of an SVR after the standard 48 weeks of treatment. We do not have data to determine the likelihood of his achieving an SVR with such a low viral load, and with only 24 weeks of treatment. However, given the possibility of serious side effects, one could consider treating for a shorter duration and reducing the likelihood of mental health complications by attempting to achieve an RVR at 4 weeks and then treating with a shortened course of 6 months (24 weeks).
This also highlights the importance of trying to maximize the patient's dosage of interferon and ribavirin during the first weeks of treatment and then checking the viral load at week 4.
Let's further discuss his mental health, with the history of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and panic attacks. Many of our patients do have psychiatric comorbidities. The patient's mental health would be the biggest red flag in this case--not his genotype, or the lack of a biopsy--but his psychiatric history and the potential impact of ribavirin and interferon on his mental health.
Speaker 2: Absolutely. The incidence of mental health issues is very high in the veteran population. Answering the question of whether to use hepatitis C therapies in such patients often comes down to issues of individual resources and individual comfort. We recommend that patients with significant mental illness such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder should be followed very closely with psychiatric evaluation, if possible. The Hepatitis C Resource Center put together a program on the management of depression and hepatitis C to improve coordination with psychiatrists and increase the availability of resources for our patients.
If possible, we would assign a case manager who could see this patient frequently, probably even if he weren't being treated for hepatitis C.
Speaker 1: Moving to other points, we also note that ultrasound has detected significant fatty liver. This finding should prompt us to attempt to determine whether the patient has the metabolic syndrome and to check his glucose level and body mass index (BMI).
Speaker 2: A number of studies have shown that BMI is an important predictor of hepatitis C treatment outcome. I think that, by encouraging and helping our patients to lose weight, we are also helping them increase the likelihood of a positive response to hepatitis C treatment.
Participant: Given the mild elevation of AST and total bilirubin, I would be very concerned that this is a cirrhotic patient. Bilirubin should not be mildly abnormal, and isolated elevation of the AST is also suggestive of cirrhosis. Certainly, thrombocytopenia, even a mild degree, would be another indication. Ultrasound really cannot distinguish between fat and fiber in the liver, so several factors would suggest this is a cirrhotic patient. I think a biopsy should be performed on this patient in order to confirm that, because you're going to follow him differently.
Speaker 1: Even though this patient has a low peripheral viral load, we cannot determine the stage of fibrosis. In fact, patients with low peripheral viral loads may fibrose much faster than others. To determine whether or not a patient has advanced liver disease, a biopsy would be useful, and one should not rely too heavily on AST and ALT measurements for determining stage of liver disease.
A biopsy is almost always helpful. Unless a patient is already decompensated with ascites and so forth, a biopsy will almost always reveal more information about the patient's stage of disease.
Question 2: If the patient is unable to be treated at this time, how and at what intervals should he be followed?
Participant: For our patients who are not being treated but are "tenuous" in terms of the stage of their liver disease, we usually follow them every 6 months, checking ASTs, LFTs, and their appropriate clotting, and their CBCs and platelet counts.
Speaker 1: I think most people would agree with following up every 6-12 months. But, what the follow-up should include depends on the stage of the liver disease, and this goes back to whether we think the patient has cirrhosis. When we know whether or not there is cirrhosis, then we know who we should be screening for hepatocellular carcinoma, who is at risk of variceal bleeding, and so forth. So, we want to determine the stage of disease for all patients, but we all know that some patients refuse to have a biopsy. If mental health issues are the most prominent concern, we try to bring hepatitis C care to the forefront, but some patients will do OK regardless, without interferon-based therapy.
Participant: Because the projection of cirrhosis was high, would you recommend that the subspecialists do the follow-up CT scans every 6 months and that the primary care physician measure alfa-fetoprotein levels every 3 months (4 times a year), with scanning twice a year, only if we think the patient is really cirrhotic?
Speaker 2: I think you should screen with alfa-fetoprotein only in patients who are being assessed for liver cancer. There is no need for alfa-fetoprotein testing in somebody who has only stage 1 liver disease and, therefore, who you really do not consider to be at much risk of hepatocellular carcinoma. Unfortunately, providers frequently request alfa-fetoprotein levels even for patients without cirrhosis. However, I definitely recommend that you screen patients for liver cancer only if they are at risk (have cirrhosis); and, when you screen them, measure the alfa-fetoprotein level along with the imaging. Does anyone have another opinion?
Speaker 1: In fact, 2005 AASLD guidelines The Management of Hepatocellular Carcinoma are not putting too much weight at all on AFP screening. In other words, what cutoff would we take as a worrisome AFP level? If somebody's AFP measurement 20, would you send that patient for an MRI of the liver?
Speaker 2: Well, that is the difficulty with AFP for the purpose of screening. It is not specific enough for cancer screening. For example, if the ALT is 200, even if the patient has minimal liver disease, I think you will tend to see a high AFP level because the ALT level is high. So, AFP screening is problematic and not a perfect test, which is all the more reason you should request it only for cirrhotic patients you are screening for liver cancer. Also, the guidelines do not recommend cancer screening in patients with early-stage liver disease at all. In those patients, there is no reason for screening with AFP or imaging.
Summary Points
- Low viral load is a predictor of achieving an SVR.
- RVR is a predictor of SVR.
- Genotype 1 patients with an RVR may be able to achieve an SVR after only 24 weeks of treatment, rather than the usual 48 weeks.
- Genotype 2 or 3 patients with an RVR may be able to achieve an SVR after only 12 weeks of treatment, rather than the usual 24 weeks.
- High BMI is a negative predictor of treatment outcome and disease progression.
- Patients with a significant psychiatric history would need very careful monitoring while on HCV treatment, ideally in conjunction with a mental health specialist.
- Patients with cirrhosis are at increased risk for hepatocellular carcinoma.
- Guidelines recommend screening patients with cirrhosis for HCC with abdominal imaging such as ultrasound, but the AFP is not sensitive or specific for detecting HCC.
- Patients with cirrhosis who are not undergoing treatment should be seen and evaluated approximately every 6-12 months.
- Patients with compensated cirrhosis can be safely treated with pegylated interferon and ribavirin but it is not usually safe to treat decompensated patients.
- Decompensated patients should be considered for liver transplant, if appropriate.

|Topic Review (Newest First)
|I had a similar problem... New 390 BOSSES with maxed out forward lean would BARELY touch the back of my Burton Ions. It seems it's best to match board and binding companies, as they each have their different takes on forward lean.
Burton Cartel binding and New Rome boots
Hey Guys,
Just bought a new pair of Rome Libertine boots size 9.5 and they are nothing short of amazing. I had a pair of Burton Ion boots size 9.5 last year. I have now realized that my new Rome boots do not get all the way back in the Burton Cartels size MED. I have my bindings on the lowest forward lean setting but the fit is not ideal. I am wondering if anyone else had this problem.
Prior to the new boots I had my high backs rotated as well but changed that because I believe it held me back from getting all the way back in the heel cup even more. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Am willing to get new bindings this year as well if you think I need to move to a size Large binding or look outside of Burton bindings.
Thanks so much

I like those bits of the shirt color showing through,this is a nice design and very different from your other stuff, it looks like something a crunchy granola type of person would wear...(or a regular person!)

It ran in the direction of Orphic and Bacchic Thrace to the north.
The subject of this sculpture seems to be a Bacchic procession.
In a word, I absolutely identify the "brandy and water scenes" with the Bacchic cultus and all that it implies.
In two seconds the ladies had entered into our Bacchic plot.
He reformed the Bacchic mysteries, giving them a more elevated and noble character, and for this he lost his life.
A staff entwined with ivy and vines, and borne in the Bacchic processions.
Trinc then: what says your heart, elevated by Bacchic enthusiasm?
I thought that Bacchic energy of yours was long since repressed.
We cannot but think this Bacchic theme a little unsuitable for our youthful songsters.
These reliefs are Bacchic in idea and Renaissance in execution.

Hello, sorry I haven't been writing in a while, but you know what it's like to be a mama cat on the go! Well the temperatures been going up and down but my cat senses say that it's gonna be wayyyy cold tonight like WAY cold. Too cold for my kittens.
Time to get into shelter! The nice sheltered garage is where they have been growing up. It might be still too cold..... they may have to stay inside for a night. Not me though. I enjoy the treats and the love but I am a feral cat at heart, I don't usually let the humans touch me. I will probably stay in a nice warm spot in the garage. But..... the inside looks sooooo warm! Hey, I may go inside later. I'll decide in a bit, but I better stop for now. You know how it is being a mama cat on the go!
Well, let me just tell you, being a mama cat isn't easy. You have to nurse your kittens day and night more than twice a day if you want 'em fat. i love my kittens, all three of them, and we have been on the go ever since they were born. I have to find the safest place for them to nurse, and to learn how to hunt. We have been moving among the nests of humans, one under a nice warm and cozy "deck" (as they call it) and two in the sheltered space where the hoomans keep their steel monsters in. but the kittens need to learn to be tough, especially when it is about to freeze.
well anyways,there's not much time to write when you're a mama cat on the go! see everykitty next time.

The Q4 issue of CWT Vision, released today, talks about the concept of hotel program optimization, and the difference it can make for a corporate travel program. While some elements of optimization are related to rate audits and program reviews, one area where travelers can really make a difference is by knowing the travel policy for hotels, and following it. Here are a few tips:

When you start talking about cycling, it's inevitable that Lance Armstrong will be brought up in the conversation. Sadly, most people view him as a pretty terrible person. Now, don't get me wrong, I don't agree that what Lance Armstrong did in terms of doping to win races, the way he ruined the lives of many who spoke out against him and generally how he treated people over the years, was absolutely terrible. However, I don't blame Lance Armstrong for doping. I really don't. And when I explain why, you just may come away with a different point of view on the topic or at least see some reasoning behind why he did it.
To Be Competitive
Lance and many others have spoken about how when they were young and moving up in the sport, it became very evident to them that if they wanted to progress to the next level, they had to start doping. It was well known among those in the sport that the top cyclists were all doping. So it wasn't a matter of choice if you wanted to be one of the top cyclists. It was either start doping or quit the sport and do something else with their lives. This doesn't make what he did right, but if someone told you that to do the thing you loved that you had to do something that was against the rules, you would at least think pretty hard about it. I would bet that even most people would choose to go ahead and do it if it meant they could do the thing that they love.
He Was Just The Best Cheater Amongst Other Cheaters
The hate toward Lance Armstrong is interesting as everyone gets up on their high horse and throws done judgement toward him from a pedestal. You want to know the honest truth? Lance was simply the best at cheating amongst an entire sport full of cheaters. This pretty much means it was a level playing field, given that basically everyone in the sport was cheating. He was the biggest name, of course, and had the most to lose by getting busted for doping. That's why he so adamantly denied the rumors over the years when they would come up and why he went after people's livelihoods when they would tell the truth about what he was doing. Don't think for a second that Lance was the only one in the sport doing it. He was simply the best at not only cycling at the time, but also at doping.
The Lance Machine
Part of the reason I don't blame Lance for doing what he did was because of the whole Lance Armstrong machine that was in full force by the time he was winning his Tour De France championships. His cancer foundation, legions of fans, and those that had financial reasons to support Lance, stood to make a lot of money as long as he kept winning. This is what helped him be the best cheater in a sport full of cheaters. He had a whole team that knew what was going on that helped him beat drug tests, pay off people, and keep the whole Lance train moving. Lance may be a jerk, but I do believe that he did feel pressure to stay on top and not be labeled a cheater so that his cancer foundation could continue to do a lot of good, which it did do. There is a pretty good argument to be made that by Lance cheating and becoming the icon that he did, that he was able to help many people beat cancer and still be alive to this day.

Description: Atlas Scientific is on a mission to make high-quality sensors for environmental monitoring available to everyday hackers and makers. All of their kits are easy to calibrate and connect to your microcontroller-based project.
When was the last time you measured something in microsiemens? Well isn't it about time you did? Siemens are the SI unit for measuring something called conductance which is simply the inverse of an element's resistance, and it can tell you a lot about a substance! The Atlas Scientific Conductivity Kit comes with everything you need to get your lab-grade embedded conductivity system up and running! The included epoxy/platinum conductivity probe is accurate enough for lab work, but rugged enough for long-term field use.
Simply connect the probe to the conductivity circuit using the included BNC connector breakout, do some quick calibration with the included calibration solutions and you're ready to measure conductivity, total derived solids (referenced to KCL) and salinity! Salinity values are derived from the Practical Salinity Scale (PSS-78) and more information can be found in the datasheet.
This kit includes the K1.0 conductivity probe and the EZO™ Conductivity Circuit, when combined are accurate from 0.55 µs/cm to 500,000+ µs/cm and is best deployed in brackish water. The included calibration solutions will help you dial this sensor in (it's really easy, we promise).
If you've ever had to test or monitor the conductivity of aquariums, hydroponic gardens, soil samples or strong reducing agents, then you know that building and maintaining an accurate probe system has never been this easy.
Kit Includes:
Can I use this probe on sea water 24/7?
Hi! I'm really considering getting this EC sensor for a project I'm doing. Would this sensor survived if it were left resting in still water? I would love to have the ability to periodically take readings without having to physically interact with the sensor.

I boughtbthis and a pH sensor kit, but i cant get this working. Only once it started, and then it filled the screen with unreadable text. Baud was set to 38400 as default. PH kit working atleast…. And i was not very happy with the 70£ toll fee, total cost was 600$
I'm sorry about your issues. Please contact our support team for assistance. We can get you in touch with someone who can help.
As for the cost associated with customs, duties, and taxes, unfortunately we have no control over individual country's fees. I'm sorry there is nothing more we can do for you there.

Head gasket poll... please check in.
I'd like to get a cross section of the head gasket problem. This probably won't be statistically sound, but it would be nice to get a reasonable idea as to the cause of our head gasket problem.
The question is - If you had a head gasket replaced, did all of the head bolts come out with a "SNAP"? In other words, were there any head bolts loose or came out easily?
The latter suggests poor threads.
Please - this is ONLY for those who have had a head gasket fail.
Re: Head gasket poll... please check in.
Mine is in the process of failing (i.e. it seeps coolant outside the block, but does not overheat, and haven't found any exhaust gases in the coolant..as of yet). I'm trying to make time to bring it in to the dealer and see what they say. If one of the bolts pulled, then it might JUST be covered by my warranty. We'll see. I don't have the time to fix it myself since I work full time. I also don't have the space either. If and when I get it fixed, I will post what info I may be able to gather from whatever tech happens to be doing the job.
Re: Head gasket poll... please check in.
Didn't take apart my old motor but Im under the assumption that probably half of them are going to come out with ease as I was burning a gal. of coolant every 2 days, my old motor had almost 190k.

Castro last week ceded power in Cuba, for the first time in his 47-year tenure, to a collective government headed by his brother Raul, 75, who has assumed his responsibilities, according to Granma, the state-run newspaper. But the mystery which surrounded the surgery that Castro underwent last Monday has continued to deepen with Raul's non-appearance in public.
Yesterday the country's ministers reassured Cubans that all was well and dismissed another US call for democracy, while in Miami the Cuban exile leaders who earlier in the week had declared the beginning of the end of the Castro era started to accept that their long wait for Fidel's death may not yet be over.
US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, in a message beamed into Cuba on Friday night, told the island's residents that 'much is changing there' and now was the time to push for democracy. 'We will stand with you to secure your rights - to speak as you choose, to think as you please, to worship as you wish, and to choose your leaders, freely and fairly, in democratic elections,' she said in a broadcast on the US-funded Radio Marti network.
But Cuba's Minister of Culture, Abel Prieto, retorted that Rice's message would fall on deaf ears. 'Nobody in Cuba is going to listen to a message that comes from a functionary of a foreign government,' he said. 'I think all these messages are pure rhetoric for Miami.' Cuba's Minister of Health, Jose Ramon Balaguer, on a visit to Guatemala, said Castro was on the road to recovery. UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan also said there were 'indications' Castro was recovering and that he wished him well.
None of this was good news for Miami's exiled Cuban community, which had danced in the streets when Castro's surgery and handover of power was announced. Alfredo Mesa, executive director of the Cuban American National Foundation, said the exiles, of whom there are 650,000 in the area, were beginning to lose their early hope that Castro was dead. 'Right now, it's more "let's be judicious in our response and see," because there's nothing to celebrate about a succession of power to Raul Castro,' he said.
In Caracas a government source said there was speculation that Castro's top ally, Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, was planning a visit, which could indicate the Cuban leader was lucid and in a condition to receive visitors. But there was a dissenting voice in Brazil, the Folha de S. Paulo newspaper said the Brazilian government had been told that Castro had a malignant stomach tumour and that President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva had told an aide: 'It looks like we will lose our friend.'
Even though Raul's whereabouts are unknown, Cubans have gone on with their lives amid prayers for the early recovery of their leader. 'If Fidel is big, Raul is too. If we feel secure with Fidel, we must feel secure with him,' said one street vendor, Dannielies Hernandez.
As reports about Castro filled newswires around the world, the US network CNN hired his daughter, Alina Fernandez Revuelta, 50, as a commentator. Fernandez, who fled the island disguised as a Spanish tourist in 1993, said of her uncle Raul: 'He is no Fidel. There's no doubt about it. I don't think he pretends to be. So, let's see what happens now. It's a very critical point in Cuba.'
In Miami, Castro's sister Juanita, who has not spoken to him since 1963 because of their different political ideas, said: 'He's not dead. He's very sick, but he's not dead.'

Nutrition basics
Myth Busters R Us
Every vegan has heard them – cautions about your health when you go vegan, usually delivered with great concern and a sad shake of the head. Well, here are your answers to the most common
Where do you get your protein?
From the same place as cows, elephants and gorillas get theirs – plant foods. Of course we need protein - for normal tissue growth and repair and protection against infection - and a well-balanced vegan diet provides plenty.
Good sources include soya foods, either as whole beans or tofu, tempeh, soya milk and veggie mince. A comparatively new kid on the block is quinoa. Pulses are packed with protein – good old peas, beans and lentils but also nuts and seeds and even wholegrain foods such as wholemeal pasta, bread and brown rice.
There are no known health risks from veg protein while meat and dairy protein has been linked to some cancers, heart and other diseases. And there's very little carbohydrate and no fibre or calcium in meat.
Won't you miss out on iron?
One of the largest studies of vegetarians ever undertaken (EPIC Oxford study) found that vegans had a higher intake of iron than either vegetarians or meat-eaters. But make no mistake, iron deficiency anaemia is a big problem but it is no more common amongst vegetarians and vegans than it is meat-eaters. But the myth prevails...
Pulses, soya milk, tofu, green leafy vegetables such as broccoli and watercress, fortified breakfast cereals, wholemeal bread and pasta, dried fruits, molasses and dark chocolate are all good sources. This iron from plant sources is called non-haem iron and is safe as your body absorbs as little or as much as it needs. The iron in meat is called haem iron and it can build up in your body and cause constipation, nausea, vomiting and stomach pain. Very high levels can lead to liver damage, heart failure and diabetes.
But you need cow's milk for calcium!
This is the most successful myth in the universe and it is wrong, despite all the hype from the dairy industry. You do not need dairy for strong bones - exercise and a healthy vegan diet are much more effective.
Good sources include dark green leafy vegetables (but not spinach), dried fruits, nuts, seeds and pulses. Calcium-set tofu and calcium-fortified plant milks are also great. Vitamin D helps you to absorb calcium and it comes mostly from sunlight.
Over 70 per cent of the world's population get their calcium from plant foods because they are lactose intolerant and can't digest the sugar in cow's milk. Just think about it, evolution created milk as a baby food!
Despite the hype, dairy products can increase the risk osteoporosis and other illnesses. Yes they contain calcium but the damaging effects of animal (but not vegetable) protein which they also contain may cancel out any of its positive effects. You're better off going dairy-free.
What about vitamin B12?
It's a myth that B12 comes only from animal foods - we can't make it and neither can they. They get it from bacteria on the plants they eat. Commercially produced B12 is used to fortify vegan foods such as veggie burger mix, yeast extract, margarine, breakfast cereals and plant milks. It is also used to make supplements – and this form of B12 is the most easily absorbed.
As B12 deficiency increases with age, the US Institute of Medicine recommends that all adults over 50 should take supplements or fortified foods.

x-art - beautiful erotica pics and explicit videos, awesome nude models and extreme posing, passionate young girls - join a new erotic revolution.
Tuesday, June 28, 2011
Faye - Passion for Pink @ x-art
Pretty redhead Faye looks more beautiful than ever as she plunges a big bright pink sex toy all the way inside!
Eufrat - After Party @ x-art
Party girls come home when the sun is rising.
Eufrat had so much fun at the club in her tiny silver, sequined dress. All the dancing made her really horny, so she decides to have an "After Party" with herself.
She brings a drink to the cabana and (while she's still buzzed from the music and alcohol) begins to masturbate until she cums hard.
She falls asleep on the mattress, waiting for you to find her and give her what she really wants.
Video to follow :-)
Sascha - Sexy Tiny Teeny @ x-art
Spy on this sexy, tiny, 18 year-old suntanning fully nude!
Sascha is such a playful girl. She lifts her bright blue cotton dress over her head, showing her pussy to you as she does it.
As she removes her dress, you finally catch a glimpse of her long, lean, slender body. Years of ballet and gymnastics have honed her into quite a sexy specimen of young beauty.
She likes the way it feels when the sun kisses her skin. Her nipples are rock hard, pointing straight up towards the sky.
Wouldn't you like to spend the day on the sand with her?
Heather - Fire and Ice @ x-art
When Heather walked into the room, we all fell in love. She was absolutely beautiful - the kind of girl you would do anything for. We were spellbound... and breathless.
Heather was accustomed to being in front of the camera. Her work as an international fashion model had already taken her around the world.
But this perfect specimen of feminine grace had a dirty little secret; she gets off by posing nude.
"Once, at a fashion shoot, the photographer asked me to take off my top," she said. "I agreed to do it, and it made me wet - right away. I've never been so turned on in my life!"
"I think my body is nice. Why not let people see it?" she asked, slipping out of her white lace panties.
I clicked my camera's shutter button as a matter of reflex. Heather stretched her naked body across the bed in front of me.
The heat was getting to me. I asked Coco to come and finish shooting the set. I wanted to be sure we documented this living angel from every possible angle.
Our pictures of Heather unique; shot from both a female and male point-of-view. Please be careful - you will fall in Love with her... like we did!
Heather - Kissable @ x-art
This gorgeous redhead loves to kiss and make out for hours...
"There's nothing quite as intimate as a slow, sensual kiss," Heather says, slipping out of her negligee and black high heel shoes.
Now naked, she leans back casually against the wall. The shiny gloss on her lips sparkles and catches the light.
Her eyes draw you in...
Zara - Lay Me Down @ x-art
Seriously, Zara told us she was a "tomboy" growing up! She was always a little too tall and didn't really like to wear dresses because she thought her legs were too long (blah, blah, blah, poor thing :-p).....I don't know why all really stunning fashion models have this same story?!
But there is something magical about Zara. Maybe it's her gorgeous full lips, her huge chestnut eyes, or her perfect body and skin....and she's a pretty sweet girl too!
She also said she NEEDS attention from men, she feels like she must have sex to make her feel validated. Can anyone help her out?
Francesca - Could Have Loved You @ x-art
Now that Francesca is all home alone, she has no choice but to get herself off. Poor girl!
In this companion to our HD video of the same name, Francesca takes great pleasure in her own perfect body, exploring with her fingers and two sex toys.
Wow - she really gets wet when she's turned on!
Watch this beautiful cutie make herself cum hard - TWICE...
Betty - Camp Cutie @ x-art
We shot these photos on a hot, humid summer day at a remote lake cabin in the woods.
19 year-old Betty was hoping to model her new sailor outfit for us, but it was so warm outside that she just had to get out of her clothes!
Besides, there's nothing better than a hot naked girl running around naked in the woods.
What would you do if Betty showed up in her little sailor outfit on YOUR next camping trip?
Eufrat - Waking Up In a Dream @ x-art
Watch this gorgeous model stretch her naked body across a glossy white table and fuck herself with 'the juicer' - a clear glass sex toy that lets you see all the way inside her pussy. Incredible!
Don't miss the amazing close-up shots at 4000 pixels resolution... Eufrat is as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside.
When she pushes the toy inside and twirls it around, you can see the cum dripping out of her. Finally, she fucks herself until she cums, then slowly pulls the toy out as you watch.
This is one erotic photo-series you will NOT want to miss!

Did You Know (Coach Ulehla Edition):
65. Coach Ulehla loves to rock out to 80s music!
64. Coach Ulehla attended Beverly Hills High School (90210) during ninth and 10th grade, back in the early 1980s, and had David Schwimmer (Ross from the sitcom Friends) as one of her classmates.
63. Coach Ulehla's most-recent favorite lacrosse coaching experience was beating Australia twice in the 2009 World Cup. In game one, USA was down 4-9 at half but made adjustments during halftime and outscored Australia 6-0 in the second half and eventually won in overtime, 10-9. In the championship game, the score was tied 3-3 at half, and USA outscored Australia, 5-4, in the second half to win it all, 8-7.
62. Coach Ulehla's most memorable athletic experience to date at Michigan was watching the first-ever night football game in the Big House.

When Apple first released the iPhone and then the iPod Touch, the company also released a method for third-parties to create applications for the devices. The apps wouldn't run on the units themselves, but rather one would use Safari on the mobile device to access web sites that would perform basic functions such as simple games, dictionaries, etc. In the end, it wasn't really software but rather simple web sites, or web apps, designed to work with the iPhone and iPod Touch.
Users worldwide were not OK with this. They wanted to run other programs on the devices other than those supplied by Apple. They also wanted the convenience of not needing a wifi connection to access these 'softwares'. As a result, they figured out a way to install their own programs, allowing users to run programs like Instant Messaging clients, complex games, interactive fiction, and customization apps used to change the look and feel of the Springboard.
What is the SpringBoard?
The SpringBoard typically refers to the homescreen of your iPod Touch or iPhone. More accurately, the SpringBoard is the program that allows you to launch applications from the homescreen.
Why would I not want to hack my iPod Touch or iPhone?
The main reason users choose not to hack their units is because they're satisfied with their devices as they are. If you see no reason in hacking your unit, why go through the effort? Besides, Apple's going to release an official third-party app delivery system (SDK) in June (but you may not be happy with the idea of paying for the various applications released through this system or even the restrictions Apple will place in the applications that are allowed to be released).
Is it illegal to hack the iPod Touch or iPhone?
Hacking the iPod Touch is not illegal. While Apple would like to make you think it is illegal, it is not, and it is impossible to get in any legal trouble for hacking it. You and Apple made an exchange. You gave Apple $400 and they gave you an iPod. It is officially yours and you can do whatever you want with it.
It is illegal to post copyrighted code, such as the operating system of the iPod Touch and the iPhone, on the Internet. But you won't be doing that if you choose to hack your device.
Will this void the iPod Touch / iPhone warranty?
Technically speaking, the warranty is void if you perform any modifications to your device, however, since a full restore through iTunes would erase all tracks of your modifications, Apple would not know whether you have performed any of these jailbreaking methods. In this sense, jailbreaking or modifying your device would not void your warrenty as long as you perform a full restore before sending your device back to an Apple store, etc.
You speak about the iPod Touch and iPhone as if they were the same device or at least very, very similar. What's the deal with that?
The iPod Touch and the iPhone are very, very similar. They use the same operating system and very similar software. As a result, the main differences between the two are the hardware differences. The iPod Touch is essentially a phone-less, Bluetooh-less, iPhone.
Do the same hacks work with both the iPod Touch and the iPhone?
Yes, but not really. Some hacks have to be tweaked to work with on both devices. Since the iPhone came out a few months before the iPod Touch, hacks existed for versions of earlier firmwares for the iPhone. The latest and greatest iPhone and iPod Touch hacks are all designed or have been upgraded to at least 1.1.1 firmware. As a result, should you choose to hack your unit, you should hold off on updating your device if Apple releases an update to another firmware. Once the firmware is tested with hacking community and it has been deemed safe to upgrade, then you can upgrade with a specific method provided.
So upgrades can mess up the hacks on my iPod Touch or iPhone?
Yes, they can. Although, if you stick to software hacks, anything you do to your unit is repairable through the iTunes firmware restore feature. iTunes, at any moment, can restore your iPod Touch or iPhone to its factory state (however, losing all data saved on the device). As stated above, if you Apple releases an update for your device, hold off on updating until the latest firmware has been tested and approved by the hacking community.
Keep in mind, that when the term "hacks" is used, It is referring to unlocking services for the iPhone or iPod touch. That is a separate issue that will be addressed somewhere down the list.
How can I restore my iPod Touch or iPhone should something go wrong?
Connect your device to your computer via the included USB cable. Open iTunes, click on the iPod or iPhone icon on the left, and click the big restore button somewhere towards the middle of the application. After a short period of time, your device will return to its factory settings.
Unlocking services is a different thing altogether which can potentially cause changes in your iPhone that a restore cannot reverse. As a result, when firmware updates disable the phone functions of an iPhone, the hacking community can generally figure out a way to restore your iPhone to its true factory state.
Note: Sometimes a firmware upgrade may prohibit you from restore to a previous firmware, in this case, you may need to turn your iPod Touch into recovery mode in which you can restore to any firmware (useful when downgrading) [see below].
What if the restore button within iTunes does not work or gives me some sort of error?
In some rare circumstances, the restore feature within iTunes may not be able to restore your iPod Touch in which case you will need to turn your iPod touch into recovery mode.
Recovery Mode:
1. Connect your iPod touch into iTunes through the USB cable.
2. Press and hold both the Hold and Home physical buttons simaltaneously until the screen turns off (black). (Your iPod touch also disappears from iTunes)
3. Release the Hold button whilst still holding the Home button until your iPod touch pops back in iTunes.
iTunes will then detect your iPod touch in recovery mode and ask you to restore it (restore it as usual)
Does Apple purposely disable software hacks and unlocks with firmware updates?
That's a good question, and a lot of us would like to know the answer to that. Apple has made statements saying they won't purposefully disable hacks and unlocks with firmware updates, and the company has also warned users that hacks and unlocks will probably get disabled with future updates.
This is a very gray area as Apple has a partnership with AT&T and various carriers around the world to keep locked handsets in the wild. AT&T and others pay Apple for every iPhone that is activated with their service, so it would make sense for Apple to try to stop unlockers from disrupting its revenue.
Apple announced that it will release an official software development kit for the iPhone/Touch platform for third-party developers in February. Many are suspicious that Apple will force third-party developers into a closed system, requiring all third-party developers to get their apps approved by Apple. If Apple chooses to sell those apps through iTunes, it could see the free third-party apps out today as a threat to app sale revenue through iTunes. As a result, it would make sense for Apple to try to stop hacks in future updates.
So Apple is going to ditch the web app concept for true third-party apps?
It isn't clear if Apple is going to ditch the use of web apps entirely, but it is going to release a software development kit for third-party developers in February of 2008.
The current train of thought is that Apple is going to develop a system in which it will sell third-party apps through iTunes. Apple will, of course, take its share of the cut from each sale. Whether or not free apps will be distributed through this method is unclear. If Apple creates a system that prevents open source and free software from easily making it into our devices, the hacking community will continue to thrive.
What exactly is jailbreaking?
Jailbreaking refers to breaking the iPod Touch and iPhone free from the clutches of Apple. In other words, gaining read/write access to the devices in order to install your own programs.
What exactly is unlocking?
If you unlock your iPhone, you can use the services of various GSM based carriers around the world.
How do I get the iPhone Apps into my iPod Touch?
Add the repository: www.applerepo.com for all the iPhone applications for 1.1.1/2/3/4. Go to installer, go to the sources tab, go to the top right hand corner, click EDIT, and add the repository. Wait for the sources to finish refreshing and enjoy!
After having all my questions answered, I'd like to hack and/or unlock my unit. What do I have to do?
If you have a Mac or PC, the automated jailbreak methods for both the iPhone and iPod Touch can be found in this forum (just search) or you could scroll down this FAQ for a jailbreaking summary for each firmware.
Note: Scroll Down for a summary of all the jailbreaks available.
How do I unlock my iPhone?
To unlock your iPhone, you currently have two options depending on your current firmware.
The paid version can be found easily by searching the terms "iPhoneSIMFree". Since the code is not publicly published as its a private effort, Apple cannot easily examine the way it unlocks the iPhone. Thus, it is less likely that your iPhone will become temporarily unusable if a future update disables it. Even if you find your iPhone disabled with a future update, the iPhoneSIMFree people are pretty quick to update the unlock software at no cost to you.
The free alternative unlock software, anySIM, is more likely to malfunction after a future firmware update. This software isn't as stable as iPhoneSIMFree but it is free. You can learn more about it and download by searching the term "anySIM".
Typically, software unlocks require you to jailbreak your iPhone first and some unlocks only support a specific firmware.
OK, I jailbreaked my device. Now what?
Now you can run unlock software on your iPhone, and you can install and run third party apps.
If you went through with one of the automatic jailbreak methods above, you should see a program called "Installer" on your SpringBoard, AKA homescreen. Through Installer, you can choose to download and install various free programs, utilities, and games. Simply click on a program in Installer, and it'll install it on your device. The next time you visit your homescreen, you should see an icon for the app you installed. Installer can also uninstall apps, update apps, and notify you when an update is available for an app you installed.
Note: Some system software has to be installed first such as BSD subsystem in order for most applications to run and/or work.
In order to see more apps, make sure you install "Community Resources". Resources provide Installer.app with information of databases of third-party apps. Currently, Community Resources is the only resource that I know about that isn't installed automatically when you jailbreak your device.
Furthermore, some apps require certain components in order to work. Apollo IM, arguably the best instant messaging client for the two devices, requires BSD Subystem to be installed (as stated above).
Installer.app was just updated to version 3.0 final. It now features a better user interface and various other upgrades (such as the ability to build queues). Although most apps in Installer will work on both devices, some are targeted at specific firmwares, and some won't work at all on the iPod Touch due to hardware limitations such as a phone antenna.
iPodTouchMaster05 Youtube video guides is an excellent source for all sorts of tutorials for modding the iPod Touch / iPhone. You can find the list of guides [ame="http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3332"]here[/ame].
How can I connect to my jailbroken iPod touch / iPhone and access its files (e.g. disk mode)?
Since the iPod touch and iPhone flash memory is formated to a different filesystem format, Apple has essentially prevented users to access these device's files. Nevertheless, there are still two methods by which you can access your device's filesystem and make changes.
If you have installed SSH on your iPod Touch / iPhone, then you can use a SSH client such as WinSCP to access its filesystem or input commands through a terminal. However, this requires you to connect to your device through wifi which means you need to have a local wifi connection that is connected to your computer. [ame="http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=9978"]More details...[/ame]
If you do not have a wifi connection available, you can still edit/access the filesystem through the USB cable provided by apple, (however, you will not be able to input commands). Currently these two softwares do the job pretty well.
~ Total Commander with t-pot plugin. (requires iTunes 7.4 or higher installed and only has a one month free trial after which you have to pay for a full license.) Currently fastest client to transfer through USB (up to 4GB tranfer at a time). [ame="http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15569"]More Details...[/ame]
~ iPhonebrowser. (Free software, requires NET framework 2.0 installed) Significantly slower transfer speeds compared to t-pot. More details...
~ iPhoneList. (Free software, requires NET framework 2.0 installed)
Significantly slower transfer speeds compared to t-pot. More details...
I have more questions about hacking my mobile Apple product. Where can I get answers?
Search the forums, most of the time someone else has already asked that question and most likely that question has already been answered.
Otherwise, Search it on Google - it's a wonderful tool.
Or... if you still can't find answers, posting a question in the right section may also work.
~ Chmod: refers to changing the permission of a file (e.g. to 755).
~ SSH: SSH stands for Secure Shell. It allows you to connect to your iPod Touch
over a WiFi connection using a SSH client such as Putty. Through SSH,
you can access your iPod Touch's file system or input commands through
a terminal.
List In progress (Any suggestions are welcome)
[:] 1.1.x Jailbreak [:]
Firmware 1.1.1 - Visit "jailbreakme.com' on safari for an automated jailbreak.
Firmware 1.1.2 - In order to jailbreak 1.1.2 you need to downgrade to 1.1.1 and jailbreak using the "jailbreakme.com" method then installing "oktoprep" in installer.
Then you can hold <shift> and press the update button (NOT restore) within iTunes and choose the 1.1.2 firmware.
After you have updated your firmware to 1.1.2, make sure your iPod touch / iPhone is still connected to your computer. Make sure you end all processors that are related to iTunes such as "appledevice..." (this will ensure a successful jailbreak that will work will even work with iTunes 7.6).
Finally, download the following zip file here and unzip it to a folder on your desktop. For Windows users, run the .bat cmd file which will start the jailbreak.jar file and start the process.[ame="http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8664"]More details...[/ame]

Everyday new Touch owners stumble upon the Jailbreak System and after following one of these well written guides do not know what to do next after jailbreaking their Touch. At my time in this forum, many always have these questions:
"What should I download Next?"
"What Apps are must-haves?"
"Where should I get started?"
It can all seem a bit overwhelming, so I felt this guide could help many. It should serve as a brief overview that one could build upon...
First, one must know how to add sources via installer.
Select Installer-->Select Sources (bottom tab)-->Select Edit (top right)-->Select Add (top left)
For a great list of sources with many apps, add this source
Then, you will get this category, under installer, Blaze Software
Select it then install Blaze Ultimate (refreshing takes a bit)
Later on delete some sources you don't need, but this gives you many different apps to choose from.
Now, look at this list,
*Bold means a Category in Installer
*(items in parenthesis gives a brief of overview of the function of the app)
-Needed---Recommended To Be Installed Immediately After Jailbreak
1) BSD Subsystem (Needed for most apps) [System]
2) Open SSH (Allows Access to Files) [System]
3) Bosstool [Utilities]
(Bosstool-->Free Disk Space-->Relocate Fonts, Apps, Etc)
After this, you should be set to install many apps, games, and all other great apps.
1) Summerboard (Themes On Springboard) [System]
2) Customize (Custom) (Different Elements, sliders, bars, and much more)
[Utilities, & other Categories for Customized Versions, search the forums for more info]
1) Tap Tap Revolution (Guitar Hero) [Games]
2) GpsPhone (Gba Emu) [Games]
3) NES (NES Emu)[Games]
4) iPhysics [iPhysics] also many levels
1) MxTube (Download YouTube vids) [iSpazio Apps]
2) NetServices (List of Options, wifi, addons, autolock, and more) [CopyCoders]
3) IMGrab (Save images off of Safari) [A27 Dev Team]
4) Iphone Apps (1.1.4{3,2,1) [iPhone 1.1.4(3,2,1) Applications]
All these should be available with the blaze ultimate list of sources. This overview, hopefully, will help some person new to jailbreaking get started and build on their experience...
*Look here for individual sources. Thank you Spoonforknife for the list
Warning, Please Do Not Install Any Apps in which you are Unsure Of Their Purpose or if the Description States Only For iPhone..Any sort of this can harm your touch resulting in a Restore
References: Here are some threads that will help with the setup of some of the apps that are relatively new...

Note: If on a later version FW 1.1.3(4), then a symlink will be need for apps such as iphysics and others by running the commands here http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/...+programs+work
Note: Later versions of customize are coming aimed at 1.1.3 and 1.1.4 users so all of you with these customize woes rejoice New functions, appearance, and more are all in testing (Beta) so give it time

Note: With refreshing sources, it can be lengthened greatly by a greater amount, so for faster refreshing times look here. It requires a bit of maintenance but refreshing times go down to a matter of seconds.

Nickel & Nickel EnRoute Les Pommiers Pinot Noir 2007
Pinot Noir from Russian River, Sonoma County, California
Winemaker's Notes
Les Pommiers captures aromatics of wild raspberry, black cherry, plum and floral notes that yield to mineral, spice and toasty oak. It has a juicy, coating entry, followed by more layers of raspberry and cherry fruit, and ripe, integrated tannins.
Les Pommiers draws its name from the apple orchards emblematic of the Russian River Valley's agricultural history. At once elegant and intense, Les Pommiers is the consummate blend of fruit from vineyards located primarily in the Green Valley and upper Middle Reach areas of the Russian River Valley AVA. The grapes are farmed according to organic principles and minimally handled at the winery. The wine is deftly shaped with a subtle combination of new and once-used French oak barrels.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Enthusiast - "An ambitious first release. Shows authentically dry, crisp Russian River ripeness, with a vast array of black cherries, raspberries, Dr. Pepper cola and Asian spices, enriched with plenty of new French oak, and balanced with crisp acidity and ultra-refined tannins. Feels silky and impressive in the mouth."
Nickel & Nickel Winery
Nickel & Nickel is devoted exclusively to producing 100% varietal, single-vineyard wines that best express the distinctive personality of each vineyard. Established in 1997 by the partners of Far Niente, the winery is based in Oakville, California, on the 42-acre John C. Sullenger vineyard property. Nickel & Nickel produces single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, but also makes single-vineyard Chardonnay, Merlot, Syrah and Zinfandel. View all Nickel & Nickel Wines
About Russian RiverView a map of Russian River wineries
The Russian River Valley is named as such due to its proximity to the Russian River, the river itself named for the Russian fur traders who came down from Alaska in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The Russian River is agricultural land. While there is a focus on wine, beyond the vineyards are many small, family-owned farms cultivating everything from cattle to Christmas trees.
Notable FactsThe proximity of this cool river and the rolling fogs from the Pacific Ocean make the area amenable to cool-climate grapes like Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. In fact, the region is quite known for its full-bodied, yet elegant Pinot Noir, as well as their ripe, yet lean Chardonnays. Within Russian River Valley lie the smaller appellations of Chalk Hill and Green Valley. Chalk Hill is the warmer of the two and furthest from the ocean, while Green Valley is cooler and closer to the water.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country unto itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.
