The power of expert opinion in ecological models using Bayesian methods: impact of grazing on birds
Martin, Tara G., Kuhnert, Petra M., Mengersen, Kerrie L., & Possingham, Hugh P. (2005) The power of expert opinion in ecological models using Bayesian methods: impact of grazing on birds. Ecological Applications, 15(1), pp. 266-280.
|PDF (148kB)
One of our greatest challenges as researchers is predicting the impact of land use on biota, and predicting the impact of livestock grazing on birds is no exception. Insufficient data and poor survey design often yield results that are not statistically significant or difficult to interpret because researchers cannot disentangle the effects of grazing from other disturbances. This has resulted in few publications on the impact of grazing on birds alone. Ecologists with extensive experience in bird ecology in grazed landscapes could inform an analysis when time and money constraints limit the amount of data that can be collected. Using responses from 20 well-recognised ecologists throughout Australia, we captured this expert knowledge and incorporated it into a statistical model using Bayesian methods. Although relatively new to ecology, Bayesian methods allow straightforward probability statements to be made about specific models or scenarios and the integration of different types of information, including scientific judgement, while formally accommodating and incorporating the uncertainty in the information provided. Data on bird density was collected across three levels of grazing (no/low, moderate, and high) typical of sub-tropical Australia. This field data was used in conjunction with expert data to produce estimates of species persistence under grazing. The addition of expert data through priors in our model strengthened results under at least one grazing model for all but one bird species examined. When experts were in agreement, credible intervals were tightened substantially, whereas, when experts were in disagreement, results were similar to those obtained in the absence of expert information. In fields where there is extensive expert knowledge, yet little published data, the use of expert opinion is a cost-effective way of making more confident predictions about the effect of management on biodiversity.

How do you give eye drops to a struggling cat?
My cat recently got a black eye from no one knows what. The vet put her under. anesthesia today to take a closer look at the eye and told me that there was a small abrasion that was probably caused by her eyelashes as her lids swelled up. The upshot is, the eye drops that I couldn't get in her before are now doubly important. She's a wiggly cat as it is and, when pinned, tosses her head around like mad. I live alone and don't have anyone in the area who could help me with this task. And, as if that's not complicated enough, let's add the fact that I have low vision and am reluctant to get too close to the eye less I poke her.
I could use some suggestions. Do they make kitty straitjackets :-/

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
Wrap your kitty in a towel with just her head sticking out. This basically is creating your own version of a kitty straitjacket. If she moves her head around, grab her scruff right behind her head to hold her head still with one hand and apply her eye drops with the other hand.

I've gotten a script that I think is reasonable, that handles this. With some help from others, it now works with XFS as wellas ext2/3, and it's supposed to also work with JFS. Since it requires LVM, I think it might make sense to put something like it into the LVM userspace tools.
Sounds interesting... but any particular reason you're ignoring reiserfs?
No particular reason, no. I just haven't used it in maybe 6 years, so I don't remember much about it. I also assume that nobody listening to the discussion on ext3-users uses it either (based on the fact that nobody else asked for it). So it didn't get added. :-)
Heh - no worries, I wasn't complaining, just asking... I do use it for my /var (maildirs), which is why I was asking...
I know, I've heard all of the horror stories... but my RAID card has a BBU on it, and my servers all have good UPS's on them , and are running nut sp will safely shut down in the event of a prolonged power failure (which has only happened once).
Mine has been rock-solid for almost 4 years now.
I assume fsck.reiserfs is the right executable to use? (I seem to remember a reiserfsck, but not whether they were equivalent...) What args should be used to get it to check the snapshot FS, preferably making as few changes as possible? (E.g., ext3 requires a pre-check check to clean up orphan inodes, otherwise the real check will exit with a failure status; does reiserfs require anything similar?)
Ouch... I wish I could help, I'd be happy to, but I'm just a lowly sys admin pretender, not a programmer... ;)
Right now, I'm just trying to find the time to get an automated backup script running to pause some services (postfix+dovecot), take a snapshot of my /var, restart the services, run rsnapshot on the snapshot volume, then release the snapshot volume...
Right now I'm running my backups on the live filesystem, which, since this system isn't used all that heavily, especially at night, isn't doesn't worry me *too* much, I'd still prefer to 'do it right'... hence my interest in your script...

SANTA CRUZ, California (Wednesday, November 4, 2009) – The Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) Grade-3 Oakley Pro Junior ASP North America Championships, which runs in conjunction with the ASP WQS 6-Star PRIME O'Neill Cold Water Classic California, moved through Rounds one and two today in testing two-foot (1 metre) waves at the backup site of Waddell Creek in Santa Cruz, California, deciding the event's Quarterfinalists.
The Oakley Pro Junior ASP North America Championships' ASP Grade-3 status plays a crucial role in all surfers' quests towards qualification for the Billabong ASP World Junior Championships held in Narrabeen, Australia each January, with all top campaigners looking to compile their best four results on the regional series to finish within the top three on the ratings to qualify for the prestigious event.
Nat Young (Santa Cruz, CA), 18, who claimed the Oakley Pro Junior ASP North America Championships in 2007 and the O'Neill Cold Water Classic in 2008, utilized precision backhand surfing on two Waddell Creek right-handers to advance though to the Quarterfinals after suffering a disappointing early round loss in the O'Neill Cold Water Classic California yesterday.
"It was a good heat for me," Young said. "I didn't think my first wave was that good. I was able to get a six and a seven right away and that allowed me to relax a little. I felt in rhythm in that heat and my board was working really well."
The local goofy-footer is currently sitting in the No. 2 position on the ASP North America Pro Junior Series ratings and is out to overtake current ratings leader Dillon Perillo (Malibu, CA), 19, in front of his home crowd at the last event on the 2009 calendar.
"I want to do well here," Young said. "To win this event would be great and I could still take the regional pro junior title if I do well enough. I won this event two years ago and then I won the 'QS last year, so although I lost in the 'QS, it'd be nice to win this event again."
Perillo, who has been a finalist in each ASP North America Pro Junior Series event that he's entered this year, has dominated the regional circuit throughout the year, but has recently suffered an ankle injury which is hindering his performance at the Oakley Pro Junior ASP North America Championships.
"In the ning of the heat I couldn't even hit the whitewash," Perillo said. "I was pretty much balancing off of my front foot the whole time. My leg is shaky. It doesn't hurt that bad anymore, it's just weak and awkward."
Despite the injury, Perillo displayed poise in his heat and was able to secure a spot in the Quarterfinals with a last minute seven-point ride in his Round of 32 heat and is out to post another solid result at the critical event despite the wounded ankle.
" I've got to get it all back," Perillo said. "It just takes awhile. I need the points though, I missed the other Grade-3, so I need to get a result in Santa Cruz."
Cory Arrambide (Ventura, CA), 19, who is the defending ASP North America Pro Junior Series Champion, is another competitor who is out to post a top result to secure his position for the ASP World Junior Championships in Narrabeen, Australia this January.
"I'm in one of the top transfer spots for Worlds and I want to do well here," Arrambide said. "I've been working hard for this event, so hopefully the waves will get better and we'll end up back at the Lane."
Alejo Muniz (Santa Catarina, BRA), 20, who has been a standout in the O'Neill Cold Water Classic California, smashed the days highest heat total of a 15.27 out of 20 and felt at home in the beachbreak conditions of Waddell Creek."
"I'm really stoked," Muniz said. "My boards feel real good and the waves remind me of my home break, so I feel comfortable out here at the beachbreak. Hopefully I can make more heats and head back to Steamer Lane."
The Brazilian talent is hoping to keep his momentum alive by competing in both the Oakley Pro Junior ASP North America Championships and the O'Neill Cold Water Classic California and feels surfing as many heats as possible keeps him in contest mode.
"It's great to surf in this event because I'm still competing while the other guys on the 'QS aren't surfing heats today," Muniz said. "Surfing in both the junior and the 'QS is great because it keeps me in the contest frame of mind."
Event organizers will reconvene at 7am local time at Steamer Lane to make a call on the day's schedule. For all of the LIVE O'Neill Cold Water Classic California and Oakley Pro Junior ASP North America Championships action log on to oneill.com/cwc/california.

As a precursor to the 4th of July, a bunch of us gathered in Laurelhurst Park on Saturday to welcome summer into the PNW with a water gun fight. I managed to stay relatively dry (thus marking me the champion of the water gun fight, according to the official rules), but the real champs were Jenica (Le Petite Destroyer) and Casey (Baron von Blast) who creamed the competition and kept the fun going long after the rest of us were beat.
It's been awhile since I did any creative processing with my photos. With the spotty park lighting these were a bit of a nightmare to edit, so I decided to try out some new actions I've been working on to give them that summer-fun look, with warm highlights and cool shadows.
Fair warning: this is probably the most image heavy post I've ever made. 55 shots – I just couldn't cut it down!
Enjoy the show.
The final play: Casey stages a coup against Jenica and reigns victorious with both Baron von Blast and Le Petite Destroyer under his control.
Thanks to everyone who made it out that day. It was a… blast! (wah-wahhhh!)

Ronnie Wood Says the Rolling Stones Will 'Rock Till We Drop'
December 23, 2012 | Posted by
The newly-married Ronnie Wood says that the Rolling Stones will keep playing until they are no more. Wood, who married his girlfriend Sally Humphreys on Friday at London, spoke with the Telegraph and said that the iconic rock group will never retire.
"I think of Howlin' Wolf plugging in to his kidney machine, however old he was, 80 or something, and still playing," he said. "You just rock till you drop."
Wood and Humphreys have been dating for six months. Wood is sixty-five while Humphreys, a theater producer, is thirty-four.

Now, let me give a big thanks to to all who contributed to this issue! Below, you'll see entries by Sharon, LC, and Cindy . If you submitted an entry but don't see it here, don't worry. We will do our best to post everything we receive, and in the order received.
Asparagus Growing Tips
by Sharon Palumbo
I had something that I wanted to share. It doesn't have anything to do about preparing food, but growing asparagus. Most people think of asparagus as a springtime crop. Did you know that asparagus can be eaten and grown into the fall months? By following a few simple techniques, you can enjoy asparagus much longer.
Prepare four asparagus beds. In the spring, cut the ferns from one bed so that they can be harvested and leave the remaining three beds alone. Harvest from the first bed for 4 to 6 weeks. A week before you plan to harvest the second bed, cut the ferns down. When the spears come up there, stop harvesting from the first bed. Continue doing this until you have harvested all the beds — no longer than 6 weeks. You should have fresh asparagus late in the year, depending on your growing zone.
REAL Raw Foods
by LC Mayfield
I started adjusting eating habits on my own when I had health problems the doctors couldn't solve. This was after a mid-life surgery that changed my whole system for the worse, before that I was as healthy as a horse. BUT I found myself trying to figure out how to keep my digestive system running smoothly, and then how to rid myself of 'Fibromyalgia' symptoms without meds. I began switching to dairy without RBST… no hormones, no antibiotics, and products with more probiotics. Because of the need for pro-biotics I found RAW DAIRY, and things got better. Much better!
God had been my advisor and guide. No doctor, no friends advice. I can't even remember how God got that information to me, and I just began taking it serious and walking in it. I DO NOT diet, but I do make permanent adjustments to how and what I eat. Raw dairy has helped the most of all the things and eating 'grass fed' meat and eggs. Allergies got better! I no longer felt like I was drowning in my own mucus. My digestion got much better. I learned that the grass meats had GOOD Omega fats which helps cholesterol and I got a PERFECT blood test from the doctor with PERFECT LDL levels… never before! I was amazed. Praise the Lord!
NOW I am making Cream Cheese, sour cream, and beginning to learn about Raw Cheese. We eat MORE at home now than out anymore. I hate having to eat out. As a family we are moving slowly toward this information and changing as we go. My husband was slow to catch on, but is now reaping some of the benefits. My super blood test result convinced him. Now the challenge has grown some with the increase of GMO & GE (genetically engineered) foods. SOY toxins are being added into everything. I have friends with cancer and toxins are part of that deadly equation, and The Monsanto Co. has taken over and produced nearly all the USA corn into Genetically Modified Organisms. It takes work to think about this and avoid the bad stuff, but it also takes work to be sick and running to doctors and hospitals like a few of my friends. Do we NOT have enough time to slow down, pray, and try to pay attention to these MEGA IMPORTANT food facts? God's Original Design is best.
Growing Food to Share
by Cindy Hoff
This year I tripled my garden space and got a wish list of what others would love to grow if they had their own garden. I have greatly increased my yields of some of my crops and learned lessons on others which were initial plantings for me. I am pleased to have been able to have excess for winter storage and use as well as an abundance to share with the families and individuals I contacted about what they would grow if they were able to do so. Some are in apartments and have limited space and yet others are disabled to a point of not being able to have their own garden to tend. A few others are just too busy to plan and plant and harvest and preserve the bounty of a garden. Thank you to all who have posted or offered suggestions, advice and invaluable information.

The iPhone 6 will feature a new super-fast WiFi chip and an improved Touch ID fingerprint sensor, according to reports.
It will also feature Apple's next generation A8 processor, which should give the smartphone a performance boost, according to tech website Venture Beat.
But it's looking less and less likely that the near-indestructible sapphire crystal display, heavily rumoured in the run up to the phone's release, will appear on device - at least to begin with.
It's now expected the phone will launch with a screen that's stronger than the Gorilla glass used by the current range of iPhones, but softer than sapphire, which is used to cover the Touch ID sensor.
Citing unnamed sources, Venture Beat added some detail to what was already rumoured about the iPhone 6. As well as the faster 802.11ac WiFi chip, new processor and improvements to touch ID, they 'confirmed' the phone would feature a NFC chip to allow contactless payments.
One interesting new rumour concerns integration with Beats headphones. Apple recently paid $3bn for the fashionable headphones brand, but details of their plans for the company have been thin on the ground.
Reports suggest they may be looking at ways to connect Beats headphones to iPhones using the Lightning data and charging socket rather than the headphones connector. It's not clear what benefit this would provide, but it's an interesting idea.
Apple's new device is also expected to have a vastly improved camera, with a 13-megapixel sensor provided by Sony.
It's currently thought the iPhone 6 will be unveiled at an Apple press event on or around September 9th, with a release date following as soon as 10 days later.
Two versions of the phone are thought to be in production. One with a 4.7 inch screen, and one with a 5.5 inch screen. It's thought the launch of the larger model will be delayed to prevent competition between the two devices.

Re: Summing all the elements along a dimension in a matrix
Hi Patrick,
Many ways to do this, but the easiest way will be using Total. The
syntax variant you could use here is Total[A,{3}].
Perhaps you should check whether the ordering of the dimensions is the
same in both systems.
Cheers -- Sjoerd

RPD looking forward to accreditation
The Roswell Police Department has been recommended for full accreditation by the New Mexico Law Enforcement Accreditation Program.
Program assessors, which is a branch of the New Mexico Municipal League, completed a three-day onsite assessment of the department.
The onsite assessment [auth] concluded Thursday. A report issued to Police Chief Phil Smith indicated that the department will recommend the Roswell Police Department to be fully accredited, said spokeswoman Sabrina Morales.
"This is something the police department is very proud of," Morales said. "We've been working on this for months."
The process started a year ago, Morales said.
While at the Roswell Police Department, the assessors were able to review the best practices utilized by the Roswell Police Department, which are currently accepted standards across New Mexico for Law Enforcement Agencies.
Once the department is fully accredited by the State of New Mexico, it will mean the department will be recognized regarding its operational policies, leadership, and professionalism.

The Kenyon Review is pleased to announce the KR Fellowships. These two-year post-graduate positions are intended for creative writers who have already completed the MFA or PhD degree and are seeking time to develop as writers, teachers, and editors. Applications may be submitted between October 1 and December 1. Two fellows, a poet and a prose writer, will arrive in Gambier, Ohio in August 2012.

KR Reading Period Begins September 15th
The Kenyon Review will begin accepting submissions through its online submissions site on September 15, 2011 and the submissions period will continue through January 15, 2012. Short fiction, poetry, drama, essays, and translations will be accepted for both the magazine and KROnline from a single pool of submissions.

KR to Accept Simultaneous Submissions!
Starting September 15th, The Kenyon Review and KROnline will allow authors to submit their work simultaneously to KR and to other publications as well. "We recognize that writers are reluctant to see their stories, poems, and essays limited to one journal at a time," said Sergei Lobanov-Rostovsky, associate editor of The Kenyon Review. "As a writer myself, I know how frustrating it can be to have my work tied up for six or nine months, sometimes even longer."
Writing Scholarship for KR Young Writers
A new merit scholarship named in honor of the Kenyon College president has been endowed to attract the most talented writing students to the College.
The S. Georgia Nugent Award in Creative Writing was made possible by a gift of $1 million from an anonymous member of the Kenyon Review Board of Trustees. "We attract the top high school writers in the country and now we have a wonderful way to recognize those who are destined to leave their mark on our campus," said Jennifer Delahunty, dean of admissions and financial aid.

From Young Writer to Presidential Scholar
Among the 470 first-year students arriving at Kenyon College this August were a glassblower, a Navajo writer and artist, a figure skater, a steel drummer who performed at Mardi Gras in New Orleans, competitive downhill skiers and table-tennis players, and a surprising number of ukulele-players. With them came twenty-nine former participants in KR's Young Writers Workshop. One of those Young Writers enrolling at Kenyon last month was Sam Teeter, selected in June as one of 20 Presidential Scholars in the Arts from across the nation
Learn more about the award here.
The eighth annual Patricia Grodd Poetry Prize for Young Writers will begin accepting entries in November. The prize, which is open to high school sophomores and juniors throughout the world, is juried by David Baker, KR's poetry editor.

She would go on to write over a dozen books of poetry, among them Collected Poems: 1930-1983, winner of the Lenore Marshall/Nation Prize and nominated for a Pulitzer. As the first woman to be tenured in the English Department at the University of California, Berkeley, she was an early supporter of the Beat poets, and helped Allen Ginsberg publish Howl. She founded the Berkeley Poetry Review in 1974. After her death, the PEN Oakland/Josephine Miles Literary Award was established in her honor to recognize achievement in multicultural literature.

Poetry classes aren't about producing poems. That's one view Dan Rosenberg considers in his KROnline review of Poets on Teaching, an anthology of ninety-nine short essays on teaching by contemporary poets, edited by Joshua Marie Wilkinson. Don't worry about mastering meters; the point is how poetic experiences offer "a kind of damage control, an attempt to undo the harm that years of American education does to students' poetic sensibilities."

Visiting Wuxi, China, with a team of architects and planners designing a state-of-the-art film studio complex earlier this year left Jack Sholder, a consultant on the project, excited about the possibilities not only for the film industry but also for future connections with Western Carolina University.
Sholder, a film director and professor and director of WCU's Motion Picture and Television Production Program, returns to Wuxi, a city of 7 million near Shanghai, in May to meet again with government officials commissioning a film studio with one of the largest film stages in the world. Designs also include the ability to flood a stage to film water scenes – a feature that would attract filmmakers worldwide, said Sholder, and would also tie in with Wuxi's location next to one of the largest lakes in China. In addition, the team is developing designs for a hotel, shops and a small studio theme park to accompany the site's public areas and 10-plex theater with IMAX.
"The project is not only creating a new movie studio, it also will help to build an industry in movie production in the city," said Jacob Chan, principal with Glumac design firm's offices in Los Angeles that asked Sholder to work with the team.
Sholder brings value to the design team as a Hollywood director with more than two dozen film credits who can speak from the perspective of a studio user, said Chan. He also provides insight from the perspective of a university educator who has developed a motion picture program and knows what it takes to prepare people to work in the industry, Chan said.
"Jack's input has been fantastic," he said.
Sholder said he hopes his discussions with officials in Wuxi about training studio workers could create opportunities to partner with WCU, and he looks forward to exploring those as the project moves forward.
Already in Wuxi are two outdoor film sets, which Sholder visited, that offer a third-century China setting with palaces, fortresses, pagodas and docks with ancient warships.
"Anyone shooting a historical epic in China does it in Wuxi," said Sholder.
Sholder's more than two dozen directing credits include directing "Alone In The Dark," "Nightmare on Elm Street II" and "The Hidden." He also directed a thriller called "Beeper" that was shot in India at the 1,666-acre Ramoji Film City, the world's largest integrated film studio complex, and "Twelve Days of Terror," a fictionalized account of the series of shark attacks in New Jersey in 1916 that was shot in Capetown. His recognitions for editing include an Emmy Award for "3-2-1- Contact." His work with "The Hidden" yielded a Grand Prix Award at the Avoriaz Film Festival, Jury Award at the Sitges International Film Festival and Best Director honors at Fantasporto.

This ReplaceAll gives a symbolic answer that I do not want:

What is the rule? I note in ReplaceAll x/.{{x->1},{x->3},{x->7}},
but I don't want one at a time.

E53 X5 rear wheels negative camber

There are camber kits available for the E53 that can adjust the camber outwards, but performance will be slightly affected if you drive at higher speeds. If tire wear is your concern, consider having an alignment done and ask your technician to adjust the toe as close to 0 degrees as he can. They can also make minimum adjustments to the camber at the LCA bolts. If you have rear air suspension, you can have a BMW service center raise the rear 3mm-5mm to relieve any sag that may be causing the increase in camber. Regarding your issue of one wheel having more negative camber than the other, chances are the upper control link or lower control arm bushings need replacement.

Grounding metal box
Yes this is about the same 8x8 metal box in my previous thread... I know I probably am not required to ground the box because it's already grounded by virtue of the the grounded metal conduit run to which it is attached by way of conduit locknut. I am grounding the box anyway. In my engineering career, this kind of approach is referred to as the silver bullet... I don't know if I'm hunting a vampire, but I want a silver bullet in my gun in case I am.
So my question is this: materials I have on hand for connecting my #4 copper wire are as follows:
One package of 2 terminal lugs (one for each box) as seen here:
10-24 machine screws and nuts
So I would use these, drill a 5/32" hole in the box and secure the the terminal lug to the box with the nut and screw.
In my experience, getting proper ground requires exposed bare metal at the point of contact so I'd scrape some off around the hole...
Anyway, just wanted to confirm I was doing this right. Inspection is tommorrow afternoon and this is my last detail to finish tonight, tommorrow morning I'm picking up a trailer and some shelving from my parents and I'll start organizing my garage workshop... A passing inspection will allow me to close the wall I'm installing the drywall and so on, thus making it where I can get my workbenches built and placed, and making the house a happier place by getting my piles of tools off the washing machine and dryer!
Sounds good.

EPISD's Terri Jordan to leave district
EPISD's Terri Jordan to leave district
EL PASO, Texas - Doctor Terri Jordan will no longer work for the El Paso Independent School District, a spokesman for the district announced late Friday night.
Her last day will be December 21.
Jordan has recently come under fire for her alleged involvement in the district's cheating scandal.
In May of 2010, the then state senator Eliot Shapleigh began accusing the EPISD of a massive cheating scandal.
Jordan was serving as chief of staff under Lorenzo Garcia, the then superintendent, at the time.
In December, the FBI launched an investigation.
Only a few months later, Garcia was arrested.
Jordan was named the interim superintendent in Garcia's place in August 2011.
This September, amid controversy, Jordan stepped down from her superintendent role and went back to her previous position.
Jordan's decision to leave the district will be discussed Tuesday, as will the future of Bowie High School Assistant principal Anna Luisa Kell and Assistant Superintendent James Anderson.
ABC-7 will be at the meeting Tuesday evening.

The word Coyam, meaning oak, was used by the Mapuches, the original inhabitants of Chile. Ancient oaks surround the Emiliana vineyards where these biodynamic grapes are grown. Aged in French and American oak for 13 months, the palate off ers well-balanced volume, round tannins, and a long fi nish that shows both character and personality.
Coyam is an intense violet plum red in color with a nose that expresses aromas of ripe red fruits, plums, berries, and black fruits that meld elegantly with notes of spice, earth, and a touch of sweet vanilla. Well balanced and big bodied on the palate, with good structure and soft, round tannins. An intense, complex wine full of character. Recommended for cellaring.
Big-bodied red wines like this one should be accompanied by full flavored dishes such as: Wagyu Rib-eye with potatoes au gratin, Baby Goat Ribs roasted in an adobe oven or Spit-Roasted Lamb.
Blend: 41% Syrah, 29% Carmenere, 20% Merlot, 7% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Mourvedre, 1% Petit Verdot
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "Dark and muscular in style, with loam, roasted coffee and dark fig notes backed by more tar, tobacco and black cherry. Shows solid depth, with nicely buried acidity driving the finish. This has range and character. Syrah, Carmenere, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Malbec, Mourvedre and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2012. 13,000 cases made."
Vinedos Emiliana Winery
When it comes to organic farming, Chile is a natural. Flanked by the Andes to the east and the Pacific to the west, this long, narrow, remote land enjoys a geography and climate uniquely well suited to organic farming. Chile's pristine environment offers exceptional growing conditions in which to nurture world-class organic wines.
Founded in 1986 by Chile's Guilisasti family, Vinedos Emiliana is a privately owned initiative dedicated to producing wines made from organic grapes and, in the case of the super-premium Emiliana Gê and Coyam, made in accordance with biodynamic principals as well. Introduction of the debut 2003 vintage Gê marked the release of South America's first ever certified biodynamic wine.
The progressive conversion of Emiliana's estate vineyards began in the mid-1990s. Today, Emiliana's vineyards total 2,812 acres in the regions of Maipo, Colchagua, Casablanca, Bío-Bío, Cachapoal and Limarí. Fully 1,470 acres enjoy official organic and biodynamic certification. The remaining 1,342 acres are ISO 14.001-certified and are transitioning to full organic status at a rate of 450 acres a year. Collectively, Emiliana constitutes the single largest source of estate-grown organic wines in the world.
To underscore their commitment to making world-class organic wines, the Guilisasti family recruited consulting enologist Alvaro Espinoza to oversee the project. A visionary who is regarded as one of the world's premier authorities on organic, biodynamic and eco-balanced wines, Espinoza works closely with Emiliana's resident winemaker, Antonio Bravo, on Emiliana's entire range of award-winning labels. Emiliana's three winemaking facilities are located in Los Robles and Palmeras in the Colchagua and in the Maipo Valley. View all Vinedos Emiliana Wines
About ChileView a map of Chile wineries (CHEE-lay)Long and thin, Chile has a lot of land north to south. The wine region here is a series of districts based near Santiago. The vineyards are protected by the Pacific on the west and the Andes mountains on the east. This could help explain why the climate changes more from east to west than north to south – also why the country has remained phylloxera free. Quite a few wineries in Chile were founded by large French wine companies. Seeing the potential of the country, vineyards were bought and planted by these French folks and the results tell of a smart investment. Some of these wineries include: Los Vascos, Casa Lapostolle and Cousino Macul. And while the inspiration may have been French, but the wines here are quite Chilean.

Notable FactsThe main regions of Chile include Maipo (pronounced MY-poh), known for reds like Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenere; Casablanca Valley, a region producing delicious Sauvignon Blanc, as well as other whites & some reds; Colchaugua, an inland district creating amazing red wines from Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, particularly in the Apalta sub-region; and Rapel Valley, settled right under Maipo and producing the same red varietals. A couple of smaller regions to watch include Limari and Elqui, two valleys further north, producing some delicious cool-climate Chardonnay and Bio Bio, an area further south, which is also focused on cool-climate varieties. Chilean wines are growing in exports and more consumers are enjoying the delicious values coming from the country. Red wines of the region, though they cannot be generalized, make the whole gamut of wine quality – quaffable to collectible. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot & Carmenere are the main players, though Syrah is also making a splash. Some of the best reds are blends of the above varieties. As for whites, Sauvignon Blanc is typically crisp, herbal and racy, while Chardonnay is richer in style with full-bodied texture and tropical fruit flavors.

Absolutely fantastic. It opens up in the glass with dark, rich fruit aromas, a touch of earthy herbal spice and smoke and on the palate, everything is in balance. It's rich, structured, complex with a delectable finish. Give it a little air. It's way to easy to finish. Just served it at a party and still have guests asking about it.

Law Reflects on Being Hall of Fame Nominee (Boston Herald)
Ty Law, one of three finalists named for the 2014 Patriots Hall of Fame, has taken to the media to show his utmost appreciation for the honor also explaining what he would have done differently during his NFL career. "Coming back full circle now and being considered as one of the Patriot all-time greats is very humbling to me. I left and played on some different teams, but my heart was always with the Patriots regardless of where I was at. It's an amazing feeling. I'm never one to be too lost on words, but I am right now," stated Law. The former cornerback spent ten years playing in New England before moving to the Jets in 2005 because of contract issues. Law later played with the Chiefs and Broncos until his retirement after the 2009 season. Bill Parcells and Raymond Clayborn were also named Hall of Fame nominees earlier this week.

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Another sports-filled weekend is upon us, and of course, all eyes are focused on South Africa, where the world's most popular sport takes center stage in the biggest tournament of them all, the World Cup. Locally, Americans don't hold this event nearly in as high a regard as the rest of the world, but with the huge U.S.-England match coming up on Saturday, even the casual sports fan has to be captivated by what's to come over the next few weeks.
Even for those of you who have sworn off soccer, vowing to turn a blind eye and refusing to embrace the month-long "futbol" event, there's quite the menu of other sporting events to wet your whistle this weekend. There's some sort of basketball thing going on at the TD Garden on Sunday night, some Irish team I think, taking on a bunch of "fancies" that wear purple. Not sure if that's something you'd be interested in, but it's there to catch if that's your kind of thing.
Anyway, by now you've realized that you're reading "The Couch Potato Report," C.P.R. for your sports-lovin' hearts. This is where sports fans go every Friday, to find out what's happening in the world of weekend sports programming. We've already chatted a bit about the two biggest events of the weekend, but let's officially dive in and highlight some more.
Sunday at 8pm on ABC
With the help of the bench players Thursday night, the C's were able to even this best-of-seven series at two games a piece, heading into a pivotal Game 5 on Sunday night. Led by the efforts of Glen "Don't Call Me Big Baby" Davis and Nate "Coo-Coo-Ca-Choo Mr." Robinson, the Green topped Kobe and the Lakers 96-89 in Game 4, reducing this Finals series to a best-of-three going forward. Winning Game 5 before heading back out to the left coast would be huge for their chances… lose, and they're faced with having to find a way to win not one, but two games at the Staples Center to earn the trophy.
Coverage begins at 1:30pm Saturday afternoon on ABC, 2:30 game start
ABC hits the jackpot this weekend with a double dose of major sporting events, leading off with the most hyped of all the World Cup matches Saturday afternoon, when the United States team takes on England in opening round pool play. England is one of the top ranked teams in the tournament, while the U.S. also has legitimate hopes of advancing far into this tournament. Beyond this game, you soccer-lovin' hooligans can enjoy seven other games between Friday, Saturday, and Sunday's action, with all games covered on either ABC or ESPN.
Friday @ 7:10pm on NESN, Saturday @ 4:10pm on FOX, and Sunday @ 1:35pm on NESN and TBS
Major League Baseball shoves interleague play down our throats for the next few weeks, and the Sox begin their interleague slate with a trio of games at Fenway, hosting the National League champion Phillies. Boston's coming off a split of a four-game series against the lowly Cleveland Indians, leaving the Sox still struggling to make up any ground on the division-leading Rays and wild card-leading Yankees. For fans going to one of these games against the Phils, try not to taunt the Philly fans too much about the Flyers losing the Cup this week to the Blackhawks… I think they've got a bit more verbal ammo to fire back at us after beating the Bruins to a bloody pulp. So be smart out there, taunters of Boston… don't say anything stupid.
All weekend long on ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPNU
Because even though there's soccer and basketball and all sorts of other stuff going on, it's still June, which means it's still baseball season. As a lover of baseball my whole life, I know there are people out there just like me, that can enjoy watching a baseball game at any level, no matter who the teams and players are. This time of year is a great time to be a baseball fan, with the Major Leagues in full swing, this NCAA college baseball tournament on TV seemingly all weekend long, and even locally, with high school baseball finishing up their tournaments and leagues like Babe Ruth and American Legion kicking into high gear. So if the weather is nice, get out and catch a game at your local ballfield… if it's not so nice out, stay in and watch the best collegiate players in the nation duke it out for a chance at advancing to Omaha for this year's College World Series.
Third and Fourth Round Coverage on CBS, Saturday and Sunday at 3pm
Memphis, Tennessee's TPC Southwind is the sight for this week's PGA tour event, the historic St. Jude Classic. 156 golfers started this tournament on Thursday, with England's Lee Westwood grabbing the lead after round 1, shooting a 63 for 7-under par, one stroke better than relative unknown Casey Wittenberg at 6-under and everyone's favorite nutty Irishman, Padraig Harrington, who is two strokes back at 5-under. Many big name golfers use this event as a tune-up for next weekend's U.S. Open tournament, which thankfully, will be Tony Romo-less.
Friday night at 8pm on ABC
Who doesn't love a little pop music, right? Hello? Anyone? Ok, well Friday, the worlds of sports and music collide in Johannesburg, South Africa for the World Cup Kickoff Concert. They lure you in with big names like the Black Eyed Peas, John Legend, Shakira, and a pregnant Alicia Keys, but if you're thinking there's any more big acts behind that foursome, you'll be sadly disappointed. But who am I to downplay this concert… maybe there is a huge following for the likes of Amadou & Mariam, K'Naan, and the Mzansi Youth Choir, all of whom will be performing in Friday's big show.

HMAS Sydney was wrongly described as a battlecruiser when it was a light cruiser of the Leander class (New clues to loss of warship as wreck is found off Australian coast, page 30, March 18).
