Stonefield Cellars Winery began with our vision of creating a small, high quality winery in Guilford County. Vineyards and good luck brought the founders together and their common love of wine and farming provided the foundation for the creation of Stonefield Cellars. Along the way, friends have joined and helped us to realize our dream of our vineyard and winery. We celebrated our 10th Anniversary in March of 2016, joyful that Stonefield Cellars has become one of the most respected and beloved wineries in the state of North Carolina.
Robert Wurz, President and Wine Maker
Robert Wurz, a California native, began making wine at an early age of fourteen in the basement of his parents' home near Calistoga. He followed his passion for wine through college, where he earned a Ph.D. in Wine Chemistry from University of California – Davis. His experience with North Carolina's grapes since 1999 has resulted in excellent wines, even from challenging vintages. The acre and a half of vines on the property are maintained by Robert and his vineyard staff; they are currently growing 14 different varietals (American, European, and Hybrids). Robert also teaches wine-making classes at Stonefield Cellars Winery in the Spring and Fall for beginner and intermediate wine makers.

Thanks to the wonders of time zones and the big global clock in Greenwich, England, we've finally figured out that the embargo on driving impressions for the 2011 Aston Martin Vantage S is nearly up.
In about five hours--at 00:00:01 GMT, to be exact--we'll be back with our first drive of the Vantage track special, straight from Spain's Ascari privateer course, where slate-floored showers and catered paddocks give the joint a distinctly different air from the usual dirt troughs and RV parking lots of the less well-funded circuits.
It's hard for us to get tired of driving Astons, and truth, even a five-airline jaunt through the Geneva Motor Show and another set of first drives didn't compress our joy for the 430-hp tuned Vantage. We like to think we rose to the occasion--so high, we couldn't fit under the coupe's tight roof, and had to go right-drive around the track in a British-market roadster, as you can see above.
The Vantage S is available for order now, priced at $138,000 for the hardtop and $151,000. But you want to know more, obviously, before you plunk down a roll of Clevelands.
That's why you need to come back about 7 p.m., East Coast time, for the final word on why this clubsport Aston is so worthy. Stay tuned.

Bosh outduels Villanueva as Raptors down BucksApr 10, 2008 - 3:12 AM TORONTO (Ticker) -- Chris Bosh may not have won his individual battle with Charlie Villanueva, but his Toronto Raptors won the war.
Bosh had 32 points and 11 rebounds - off-setting a season-high 38 and 12 from Villanueva - as the Raptors downed the Milwaukee Bucks, 111-93, on Wednesday.
Toronto (39-38), which entered this game losing of 11 of its last 15 games, managed to keep pace in the Eastern Conference playoff picture - remaining in seventh place, one game behind Philadelphia (40-38) and two games behind Washington (41-37).
"It was an important win for us because it gets us back to ground zero and getting back to the things we do well," Bosh said. "I think we did great job at the defensive end."
The first half featured an incredible individual battle between each team's power forward - Bosh and Villanueva. Villanueva was so hot that he scored the Bucks' first 11 points and 14 of their 18 first-quarter points.
For Villanueva, it was another opportunity to remind his former team what they were missing out on. He was traded by the Raptors to the Bucks for guard T.J. Ford following the 2006 season.
The second quarter was more of the same as Villanueva opened with Milwaukee's first 13 points - including 3-pointers on three straight possessions - as the Bucks hung tight, trailing only 50-48 at intermission.
In all, Villanueva scored 25 of Milwaukee's first 29 points.
"I had it going, I was in the zone," Villanueva said. "Every time, I come here, I feel like I've got something to prove."
"I think Charlie V. kept us in the game offensively in the first half," Bucks coach Larry Krystkowiak said.
Not to be outdone, Bosh nearly matched his counterpart shot for shot, totaling 22 points in the first half.
The personal battle between the two forwards took a rest in the third quarter as Bosh outscored Villanueva, 7-3, over the 12 minutes.
However, Bosh's scoring all came near the beginning of a pivotal 23-9 run over the last 8:11 of the third quarter to give the Raptors a 83-68 cushion.
"In the second half, we pretty much dominated them," Bosh said. "We have to continue to play team basketball on both ends."
Even though Villanueva cranked up the scoring again in the fourth with eight more points, the Raptors withstood the charge this time, not allowing the Bucks to get any closer than 10 points the rest of the way.
"I had a pretty good game overall, but I'd still rather win," said Villanueva, who finished 14-of-25 from the field, including a career-best 7-of-12 from the arc.
Anthony Parker added 18 points while Jose Calderon handed out 12 assists for the Raptors, who snapped a two-game home losing streak.
"It definitely feels good to get the 'W,'" Parker said. "We really tried to execute defensively down the stretch not to let them get back in the game. We have to bring the energy as we head into our last games and get ready for the playoffs."
Michael Redd finished with 17 points for the Bucks, who were playing in the second half of a back-to-back, having dropped a heartbreaking 107-104 overtime decision on Tuesday against the Boston Celtics.

Kentucky-South Carolina Postgame Quotes
Recap | Box Score | Notes | Photo Gallery | USATSI Photo Gallery
Kentucky Head Coach John Calipari
Q. Was this the kind of crunching that you were looking for, the more step-on-them game?
COACH CALIPARI: We played well. Offensively we were really good which created a pretty big gap. But I thought we defended, we played with great energy, we needed to play a game like this.
What we need to be is in a war where we get up 13 and then we push it to 20. Where the other team's battling and it's six, four, five, it gets to 13 and we get it to 20. That's where we have been lacking right now.
Q. Can you talk about the honor you got today in connection with the Hall of Fame?
COACH CALIPARI: I'm honored and humbled when you see all the people they're talking about. And then people that I followed their whole careers.
But, and again it doesn't mean, they still have other votes, this means you're a finalist. But I would say what I tell my team all the time, during the season, it is about our team. When the season ends, it's about individuals.
Right now we're in a season, so I'm not going to address it. This is it. I just addressed it. So I'm not talking about it anymore. When the season ends, if you want to ask me about it, I'll talk about it.
Q. This was the first game in five that Dominique (Hawkins) did not start. The last one was actually the last South Carolina game. Could you speak about why and what's going on?
COACH CALIPARI: Trey [Lyles] has been out. So I went and tried to play, continued to play nine guys. So Trey was out. The good news is, he had his opportunity to really play.
Now, Trey's back, we got to get back in that rhythm and I told him, and I told his teammates, that I'm making this decision based on Dom's good, he's just not as good as some of the other guys and they deserve their minutes.
So, that's why we did it. But he's -- again, he was in this same position a year ago, we played Michigan, and he went in and guarded (Nik) Stauskas and did a great job. So I know we can count on him if we need him.
Q. A little while back you were talking about Wally Pipp with Dakari. It didn't seem like he was really making you happy with his effort the way he was playing. Did something change today? Did he --
COACH CALIPARI: No, he's been playing. Well, he hasn't been fighting, he hasn't been fighting in practice, in the games, letting the other guy outwork him. Well, then he's not the same guy.
Today, he gets 13 rebounds, I believe. I mean, he went after every ball and he did it in 10 points, 13 rebounds, a double-double in 21 minutes.
Karl(-Anthony Towns), on the other hand, got those two rebounds late because I told him you got two rebounds. You got two rebounds. So he went in there and rebounded and did some good stuff.
But like I said, we're good, our post play is good, we're really good. We're making threes now, we can really beat you pretty good.
Q. Did Willie make strides in terms of being one of the best players, as you said?
COACH CALIPARI: Yeah, he made some shots. He's still, his feet get too close, his balance is bad at times when he gets physically pushed around. But I was pleased with him and pleased with our team. We're a good team -- duh.
Q. How good?
COACH CALIPARI: We're still trying to figure out how good. But I know we're a good team. Now, where do we want to go with this? I thought Andrew (Harrison) was great today, I thought Aaron (Harrison) played, Devin (Booker) played, Tyler (Ulis) played, they all played. Trey (Lyles) got beat on a defensive breakdown, I took him out. You're out. You're not doing that. You got to focus on this and the same with Karl(-Anthony Towns). I thought Karl was a little lackadaisical in the second half. Boom, let the other kid play.
I thought Marcus Lee did some good things today. It's good to see him play well.
Q. It's a regular season thing, but do you try to let your players know to enjoy making some history?
COACH CALIPARI: I told them you just tied. We're all freshmen and sophomores and Willie, and you played an unbelievable schedule. One of the best non-conference schedules in the country and you're in one of the best leagues in the country. I said, 'So you got today off and you got Sunday off.' I gave them two days.
Q. With James (Young) and Julius (Randle) in town, have you had a chance to speak with them and how did those conversations go?
COACH CALIPARI: Yeah, I did. I just saw James for the first time. Julius was in the office last night, yesterday, and I spent some time with him and he was teasing me at the press conference yesterday. But it's great to see those guys.
Now, I am going to the All-Star Game to see all my other children. So, as I give them Sunday off, I'm going to go to a high school game at 2 o'clock on Sunday, and then I'm going to that game there, and then flying back Sunday night. I'll be here to get ready for Monday and Monday's practice and travel to Tennessee.
Q. Karl had some nice baskets early on in the game. When he's going offensively, does that elevate you guys to a whole another level?
COACH CALIPARI: Yup. Yup. He's just got to fight and stay focused. He can shoot free throws, he's a good shooter. He played 17 minutes today. We had -- how many guys had eight or more points? One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. That's pretty good. When you're talking about playing guys 20 minutes, 23 minutes. The most played was Andrew (Harrison), but Andrew's playing really good right now.
Q. Not to say you were in a bad mood at times last year, but it seems like you've been really good and really enjoying the last couple of weeks. Are you just enjoying this a whole lot more than at this time a year ago?
COACH CALIPARI: I'm telling you, winning, is so much more fun than losing. You have no idea. It just is. Losing stinks.
So, we had to learn from a lot of stuff last year. It was frustrating that they weren't getting it quick enough. But by the end of the year, we got it. By the end of the year, everyone was happy. I was extremely happy for those guys.
Q. By your standards the defense has been slightly less than it was. What made the difference today do you think?
COACH CALIPARI: I think we were able to switch and really take them out of some of the stuff and the other thing was, we were able to block some shots. That's why I got on Karl the one play, he could have blocked it.
Look, when you're blocking shots in there, it forces them to take jump shots. Now think about the last three games. Six foot guards were driving on seven foot players shooting layups. Then you say why are they shooting 57 percent or 47 or 46? That was why. They were shooting layups on our big guys.
So we have gotten after it a little bit and what I did in practice, for two days, and you guys that know me last year, we practiced long last year and late in the year because we needed it.
Normal case, we back up off practice this time of the year. Well, we went back Thursday to an hour of scrimmage and then they got after each other and I even scrimmaged them 15 minutes yesterday, which I never do.
It's our advantage. We got a good group of players that need to go after -- they don't want to do drills. They look at me and say, 'Stop the drills, let's play.' Throw it up. But you're juggling balls. What balls are you juggling? You don't want anybody -- you want to keep everybody healthy.
But I think this team needs to -- it's, again, I'm learning about them. They're a young team, so we need to scrimmage a little bit. We'll probably scrimmage 15 minutes on Monday. They will have Wednesday off. And on Thursday, we'll scrimmage for an hour. We'll go up and down the court.
Q. You mentioned you're going to the All-Star Game tomorrow. What did you feel when DeMarcus (Cousins) finally got his first All Star berth?
COACH CALIPARI: I thought he deserved it based on the numbers and all the other stuff. He really did. But so did Damon (Lillard). He deserved it too. I mean, you know, he's a really good player and I love the fact that DeMarcus called him and said, you should have got in, which tells me a lot how much DeMarcus has grown.
But what's really neat is you have two players on the starters in John Wall and Anthony Davis. And Anthony, I don't believe, is going to play.
But you also have a sophomore game, you have Nerlens Noel and if Carmelo (Anthony) doesn't play, I think Brandon (Knight) would be in. But I have a feeling he is going to play. But Brandon's in the skills stuff and our guys are doing well. It's really great to see and I told them you guys get in there, I'm going to get up there. So kind of fell where I could make sure I get up there.
Q. How intense are those scrimmages when you're going up against each other?
COACH CALIPARI: They argue, fight, foul, grab, and whoever loses has to run. If I forget to tell them to run, whoa, whoa, whoa, White's got to run. And then I got to make them run and then we -- so they don't -- if they beat somebody they're making that other team run. They're really competitive. Plus you got all these big people. I mean you got three, four, seven footers on the court playing. Both teams are big, both teams have good guards, both teams shoot it well.
Q. Anthony (Davis) said at the All Star festivities I guess today that his 2012 team would destroy this year's team. Weigh in on that one.
COACH CALIPARI: Did he say that? But if you ask DeMarcus (Cousins) what would he say? The same thing. And then if you asked Brandon Knight and Terrence Jones and that group, what would they say? 'We would kill them.' So, that's fine.
The good news is they, other than playing here and playing against each other, I would tell you this, they will all root for each other. And this team now has done something all those teams haven't done. And I remember Brandon Knight when we got to the Final Four, when he made that game winner, what was, what he was so jacked about is they went farther than the team before.
Like, everybody said we weren't going to be as good. Well, we just went further than our 2010 team that went 0-20 from the 3-point line (in) a Regional Final. But anyway.

Kentucky Student-Athletes
#5, Andrew Harrison, Guard
On Willie Cauley-Stein's play the last three games …
"He can dunk. He's been putting the work in. He even hit some jumpers today. He's been working on it."
On tying the school record for best start of 25-0 …
"A lot of us didn't even know about the record. We're just trying to take it one game at a time and win every game that we can play. It doesn't matter if we don't finish it out right. We just have to stay focused."
On Coach Calipari being named a Naismith Hall of Fame finalist …
"I'm very happy for him. He's a great coach. Coach doesn't want us to worry about that, but just focus on the team."
On the importance of increasing a moderate lead to a larger lead to put a game out of reach …
"Me being a point guard, I just have to make sure everyone's focused. You just have to keep your foot on the gas."
On scrimmaging in practice …
"We usually win. No, I'm just joking. They're fun matchups. You have to compete or you're going to lose. Nobody wants to lose."
On if this was a dominant performance …
"I'm not sure about it being dominating. We just played really well today and made a lot of shots. They're a good and physical team. They have guards that can really drive the ball."
#15, Willie Cauley-Stein, Forward
On what he has changed in his game the last few weeks …
"The same, just playing aggressive instead of looking to be passive."
On becoming one of the best players in the country …
"I think that this is as center stage as it gets. I've been on center stage. I'm not going to say I'm scared of really anything but Kentucky is center stage. I can't walk outside my dorm and have like seven pictures taken so I think that this is pretty center stage."
On playing with more energy …
"I think I just feed off of my teammates. I make a highlight dunk or something and I'm like getting head butted, their faces are looking crazy and that is fun to me. Seeing my teammates happy is more fun than me actually doing something."
#44, Dakari Johnson, Forward
On scrimmaging in practice …
"You know, it's fun when we are talking smack to each other and just getting back in that competitive mode."
On Trey Lyles back in the lineup …
It's big because he is so versatile. He can guard people on the perimeter and he can erase shots and he's 6-10. It's really good for us."
On playing tough in the post today …
"We just really have to fight for position because we are not going to get calls that other teams are going to get so we just have to fight through that. We have to take it up strong physically."
South Carolina Head Coach Frank Martin
Opening Statement …
"Didn't put up much of a fight today, and if we're not going to put up a fight, we're not talented enough to be able to play with a team like Kentucky. Cal's got these guys playing just together, united on both ends of the floor. They out-worked us, out-ran us, out-rebounded us, out-screened us, out-toughed us, so if we didn't win any of those categories, it was going to be hard for us to put up any kind of a fight today."
On Kentucky's progress and Coach Cal's nomination …
"Yeah, that's awesome. Cal's so deserving of that. It's what he does for kids, for our game, the way his teams play. I don't know why he's never received the kind of credit that he deserves. He's real good, and I'm so happy for that. It was hard for me to judge their team today because I thought they played with the same resolve three weeks ago. I just thought we fought. Today we didn't fight, so the game got away from us. It's hard for me to judge how good they are today because we didn't put up a fight. We walked in there, and as soon as we got punched we went down. We never fought back. It's hard to see. We fought back three weeks ago, so I got a feel for their basketball team. I know they're real good. I don't need to compare them to anybody, but it's hard to answer that part of it because we just didn't fight today."
On Sindarius Thornwell's play …
"He's been playing better and better. He's the one guy on our team that actually never went away, but, you know, you're not going to beat Kentucky with one guy trying and everyone else was kind of waiting for the buzzer to sound. I've got to help Sind. Sind's trying to do his part. I've been begging for leadership and all that the whole year, and here over the last couple of weeks he's really trying to embrace that role, and I've got to help him there."
On warning signs of play …
"I can sit here and tell you about having to practice with eight guys for the last two weeks and all that. I don't want to do that. You don't want to hear it, and I don't want to hear it. It's—we made some adjustments on how we want to attack them offensively because obviously last time we won all the effort plays, but offensively, we didn't do a very good job. I thought the adjustments we made, we tried to execute them early. We missed shots and those missed shots led us to hang our heads, and if you hang your head against a team like Kentucky, you see what happens. I thought we were fine going into the first media timeout. I think the score was 6-2 or 8-4, something like that, and I liked the shots we had gotten. I like what we had tried to do, but we had guys missed shots. Then, we hung our heads. As soon as you do that against them, it's a problem."
On Kentucky's defense …
"That's kind of the adjustment we made based on their switch. The idea was not for guys to hold the ball through the whole shot clock. We just, early on we attacked it. We tried to do the things we spoke about, but as the game evolved, we just stopped doing it. The only guy that tried to do what we spoke about doing was Sindarius. He's the only guy. Everyone else was a day late and a dollar short. It just, you can't succeed if you hang your head. I don't care what your game plan is, if you hang your head, it's not going to work. Today, we had guys hanging their heads. Kentucky's not the kind of team that you want to do that. Not just because of their talent, but because of how hard they play."
South Carolina Student-Athletes
#0 Sindarius Thornwell, Sophomore
On how UK seemed to have control …
"We didn't stick to the script. They outplayed us and out-hustled us. They got easy baskets and we didn't."
On how to improve offensively …
"It's just a lot of repetition. It's just getting the ball and trying to get it to go in. We just need to get keep shooting and to get the feel of the ball. We need to get the feel of winning a game back."
#4 Tyrone Johnson, Senior
On how to stay motivated …
"We just have to believe in ourselves and work. We need to be doing the things we were doing two months ago. It's just belief. We have to believe in ourselves and have confidence. There are so many good teams in this league and if you don't believe in yourself or have confidence then you aren't going to make it."

Bangkok Evacuates Two Flooding Districts
Capital Braces After Prime Minister Cites Vulnerable Barriers
BANGKOK—The governor of Thailand's capital ordered two flooded districts to be evacuated and Bangkok residents searched for dwindling food and drinking water, responding with new urgency to signals that their city could be in grave danger from surrounding flood waters.
As water that covers much of central Thailand now floods parts of Bangkok's northern reaches, Gov. Sukhumbhand Paribatra on Wednesday told residents of two of the city's 50 districts, Don Muang and Bang Phlat, to leave for shelters. "This is the first...

Top court upholds patent linked to HGS/GSK drug
Britain's highest court upheld a patent on a gene sequence held by Human Genome Sciences related to its new lupus drug Benlysta, in a defeat for rival drugmaker Eli Lilly.
Wednesday's ruling from the Supreme Court chimes with similar support for the patent by the European Patent Office and overturns earlier court decisions in favour of Eli Lilly.
The case centres on a protein called neutrokine-alpha, which HGS identified and filed a patent for in 1996.

Volvo, Saab, Audi and Volkswagen Recall 40,000 Cars Because Of Faulty Towing HooksJul 4, 2002 | AP
Volvo, Saab, Audi and Volkswagen said Thursday they're recalling about 40,000 cars because of a faulty towing hook.
The hook, called Brink G.3.0, was mounted on 17,000 cars sold in Sweden since 1998, the companies said in a news release.
It also was mounted on 18,000 Volvos and 3,500 Saabs in other markets, spokesmen for the two companies said.
They said most of the affected Volvos were sold in Germany, the Netherlands, France and Belgium and about 700 in the United States, while the Saabs were spread over European markets, Russia, Australia, Japan and Canada.
Volkswagen and Audi said they were recalling about 1,000 cars in Norway.
Owners would be notified by mail of the defect and invited to adjust the hooks at local dealerships, the companies said.
Kim Gaalsgard, a spokesman for the hook's manufacturer, Brink Sverige AB, said tests had shown a problem with the towing hook's locking mechanism.

Playing Catch-Up
Yeah, I know. I'm really behind.
Wednesday was a gala day. I learned that I'll be getting a big fat royalty check from my story in The Living Dead, an anthology of tales about zombies. The book reprints my story "Beautiful Stuff," which you can also find in my collection The Fate of Mice. (Read my zombie story, along with ten other great stories that have nothing to do with zombies! Makes a great gift idea! Christmas is coming!)
To tell you the truth, I don't get the current zombie craze. As I've remarked to my fiction workshop, they're pretty boring monsters. But TLD has been selling like hotcakes, and as a result, my share of the royalties is not only more than I've made in royalties on my last three books -- not difficult, since they haven't earned royalties -- but is in fact more than my advance for The Fate of Mice. Oh, man. Of course, it doesn't hurt to be in a book with Clive Barker and Stephen King. But still.
So, yeah, we'll be getting a nice bunch o' zombie bucks. Also, Wednesday I learned that I'll be teaching my Tolkien course again in Spring 2011, this time as a semi-lecture course with a cap of fifty students (rather than the usual thirty-three), because the department's desperate to increase enrollments. Hey, just doing my bit to get us through the budget crisis . . . we'll see if this works, but whatever happens, I'll enjoy teaching Tolkien.
Yesterday I received my box o' sock-knitting goodies from Inez, who sent me a bunch of lovely KnitPicks DPNs, some nifty cardboard tubes for holding DPNs and the projects attached to them, four skeins of colorful sock yarn, and a handy little canvas project bag which you can hang from your wrist or from the arm of a chair. This is an extremely useful accessory in places like airplanes, where you want to make sure that your yarn doesn't fall onto the floor and unroll down the aisle, tripping flight attendants and wreaking havoc.
Yesterday I went to see my psychiatrist, who giggled a lot when I told her about fiddle lessons, but thinks they're probably good for me. Then I zipped over to Franklin's Crafts and spent some zombie bucks on fun boucle yarn to make Christmas stockings for three kids, all children of friends. Then I went to another doctor's appointment, this time at the sleep center, since my insurance company is saying they'll no longer pay for my CPAP if I don't have a repeat sleep test (I haven't had one since the first one six years ago). After asking me if I wouldn't like some surgery to remove excess tissue in my throat -- said surgery would leave me with a sore throat and difficulty swallowing for three weeks, and wouldn't even necessarily work, so I declined -- the good doc scheduled me for a sleep test in a few weeks. He also gave me a script for three Ambien so I'll be able to sleep that night, since last time that was a problem. (Hey, you try sleeping in a strange bed while you're wired with more gadgets than the space shuttle, especially when the other people in the sleep lab are snoring like chainsaws, since that's what gets folks into these places. Sleep labs need much better soundproofing than this one has.)
I said, "Ambien? Isn't that the stuff where you get up in your sleep, drive across the country, and eat a supermarket?"
"There can be some retrograde amnesia," the doctor said brightly, "but you won't do anything you wouldn't do ordinarily."
"Oh. Okay. You'd better hide the chocolate, then."
He laughed. "We will. We'll hide the chocolate."
Last night I went to Katharine's to knit and fiddle around with the fiddle. Katharine and Pamela were properly complimentary about my version of "Mary Had A Little Lamb," and even started teaching me "Simple Gifts," but Katharine's attempt to get me to play rhythm flopped. I got completely lost in all the competing notes. Hey, gimme a break: I've only been taking lessons for three weeks! So we knit and ate cookies instead.
Today, Gary and I headed up to scenic Truckee, California for lunch and shopping. He got some odds and ends at their kitchen store. I spent some more zombie bucks on a new skirt and pair of slacks -- both on significant sale -- and then we went to a new (to me) yarn store up there. I liked it a lot, and spent even more zombie bucks on yet another pair of DPNs (ebony, this time, and 7" long rather than the 6" ones from Inez) and yet more sock yarn for Gary. One of these days I'll knit a pair of socks that doesn't slide down around his ankles. I will! I will! I swear it! If it's the last thing I do, I'll never be hungry again!
Oh, wait. Wrong story.
I had a lot of fun practicing the fiddle this evening, largely because I decided not to use the practice mute. After warming up with TTLS and FJ (Frere Jacques), I launched into many successive versions of MHaLL, starting at 70 bpm and working up to, I think, 90. Charlene wants me to get to 100 with good tone. That probably won't happen this week, but I'm heading in the right direction. When I got too bored with Mary and her little lamb, I practiced "Simple Gifts" and "A Mighty Fortress is our God." They're much rougher than Mary or Jacques, let alone the dreaded TTLS, but Gary recognized "Simple Gifts," so I must be doing something right.
I'm going to try to learn some Christmas carols so I can play them for the Philly family when I'm there. I talked to my mother today and asked her if she had any requests. She said, "Not that I can think of, but maybe I will when you're here."
"When I'm there," I said, "your request will probably be for me to stop playing."
Next weekend is the one-year anniversary of Dad's arrival in Reno. Last night I cried some at Katharine's house. Today I got a little sad when Gary and I ate lunch in Truckee, because the restaurant we always to go there was one of Dad's favorites from previous visits, and he never got there after he moved to Reno.
Ah, well. I swam for fifty minutes before dinner. That should help my mood.

Known for the Blackberry, Research in Motion (RIMM) reports earnings on Thursday, March 24. For Q4 2011, the Street expects a proforma EPS between $1.62 and $1.81, and the company expects it to be between $1.74 and $1.80. In Q4 2010, the actual figure was $1.27. You do the math, this would mean solid growth.
For the entire year, analysts expect proforma EPS between $6.10 and $7.03. In FY 2010 through February, the company posted a proforma EPS of $4.37. The company has already turned out $4.56 in proforma EPS in the first 9 months of its 2011 fiscal year. In comparison, it was $3.05 for the same period in FY 2010.
In Q3 2011, the company made a record 14.2 million shipments of Blackberrys, which was an increase of 40% over Q3 2010. Revenue also was $5.49 billion, up 19% from $4.62 billion in the previous quarter and up 40% from $3.92 billion in the same quarter of last year. The revenue breakdown for the quarter was 82% for devices, 15% for service, and 3% for software and other revenue. Approximately 5.1 million net new BlackBerry subscriber accounts were added in the quarter. At the end of the quarter, the total BlackBerry subscriber account base was over 55 million.
Device revenue increased by $2.61 billion, or 29.5%, to $11.47 billion, or 80.0% of consolidated revenue in the first 9 months of FY 2011 compared to $8.86 billion, or 81.5% of consolidated revenue in the first 9 months of FY 2010. This increase in device revenue over the prior year was primarily attributable to a volume increase of ~11.3 million units, or 43%, to approximately 37.5 million devices in the first 9 months of FY 2011 compared to ~26.2 million devices in the first 9 months of FY 2010, offset by a decrease of $32, or 9%, in average selling price to $307 in the first 9 months of the current fiscal period from $339 in the first 9 months of FY 2010.
So, you may ask, what about its competition?
Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) sold 16.24 million iPhones in the quarter, representing 86% unit growth over the year-ago quarter, and also sold 7.33 million iPads during the quarter.
Net sales of iPhone and related products and services were $25.2 billion in 2010 representing an increase of $12.1 billion or 93% compared to 2009. Net sales of iPhone and related products and services accounted for 39% of the Company's total net sales for the year. iPhone unit sales totaled 40 million in 2010, which represents an increase of 19.3 million or 93% compared to 2009. Net sales of iPad and related products and services were $5.0 billion and unit sales of iPad were 7.5 million during 2010. iPad was released in the US in April 2010 and in various other countries over the remainder of 2010.
Dell (NASDAQ:DELL) recently introduced its Venue and Venue Pro smartphones, and said that later this year it will also start selling the "Honeycomb," a 10-inch tablet that runs Google (NASDAQ:GOOG) Android 3.0. However, this makes up an insignificant part of the company's Mobility segment, as notebooks and mobile workstations have the wolf's share of revenues. The company grew EPS by 84.93% in FY 2011 through January.
Sony Ericsson (NASDAQ:ERIC) sold over 9 million Android-based Xperia phones since its launch. This phone is the first-ever mobile phone to integrate Playstation games and controls into an Android device. The company claims that its market share in the total global handset market 2010 was ~4% in units and ~6% in value. Units shipped declined by 25% to 43.1 million, while the average selling price increased by 23% to 146 euros ($205).
Nokia (NYSE:NOK) is serious about competing in the smartphones arena. In fact, from April 1, 2011, the company will have a new operational structure, which features two distinct business units in Devices & Services business: Smart Devices and Mobile Phones. They will focus on its key business areas: smartphones and mass-market mobile phones.
In 2010, net sales in smartphones and mobile computers grew by 17% to 14.78 billion euros ($20.85 billion), and the number of units sold shot up by 48% to 100.3 million. However, the average selling price dropped by 21%.
The key element of Nokia's smartphone strategy is the planned strategic partnership with Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) announced on February 11, 2011, to build a new global mobile ecosystem. The Windows Phone ecosystem targets to deliver more competitive, differentiated and innovative mobile products with an unrivaled scale, product breadth, geographical reach and brand identity. Under the proposed partnership, Nokia would adopt and license Windows Phone from Microsoft, as its primary smartphone platform.
During 2010, Nokia also introduced a number of more affordable models based on the Symbian operating system, including the Nokia C600, a messaging optimized smartphone with a 3.2 inch HD touchscreen display, a slide out four row QWERTY keyboard and a 5 megapixel camera; and the Nokia E5, a messaging optimized QWERTY smartphone that builds on the success of the Nokia E71 and Nokia E72.
During 2011, Nokia plans to complement its offering of mobile phones and smartphones with its first mobile device based on the MeeGo operating system. MeeGo is an open source, mobile operating system project and our own development around MeeGo will place increased emphasis on longer term market exploration of next generation devices. MeeGo was formed from the merger by Nokia and Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) of their respective Maemo and Moblin Linux-based computer operating systems during 2010. Nokia has previously deployed Maemo on Internet tablets and, most recently, the Nokia N900, which was the first Maemo-based device offering cellular functionality.
LG Electronics (LGERF.PK) dropped 24.9% in 2010 in its sales of handsets to 12.8 trillion KRW ($11.4 billion). In 2011, the company aims to focus on profitability by launching premium smartphones and differentiated tablet PC products along with recovering cost competitiveness for feature phones. Its new products will include the Optimus2X / OptimusBlack, Revolution, and tablet PC.
HTC (2498.TW) grew sales volumes from 11.7 million to 24.6 million (+111%) in 2010. Revenues also grew by 93% to 278.8 billion TWD ($9.4 billion). For Q1 2011, the company expects shipments to be around 8.5 million, which would be an increase of 157% from Q1 2010.
In mobile devices segment of Motorola Mobility (NYSE:MMI), revenues grew year-over-year driven by smartphone unit shipments that increased to 13.7 million from 2.0 million in 2009. The smartphone segment grew on a unit basis more than 60% from 2009 to 2010. The company expects the smartphone segment unit growth to be between 40% to 50% for the full year 2011.
Samsung (OTC:SSNLF) grew smartphone shipments to ~25 million in 2010 from ~6.8 million in 2009. The company expects continuous growth of the smartphone market, mainly founded upon replacement demand. Samsung shares also trade on the Korean Stock Exchange (005930.KS).
In July 2010, Hewlett Packard (NYSE:HPQ) completed the acquisition of Palm, Inc., which enhances the company's ability to participate more aggressively in the growing smartphone and connected mobile device markets. The aggregate purchase price was $1.8 billion.
The company plans to launch the Veer later this spring, and the HP Pre3 in the summer.
Sharp (OTCPK:SHCAY) aims to introduce more smartphones in Japan to cater to demand for high end products. The company also aims to venture into the US and Europe to appeal to the smartphone demand.
Research in Motion has its work cut out.
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours.

Rory McIlroy 'leaning' toward rejoining the PGA Tour
AKRON, Ohio Reigning U.S. Open champion Rory McIlroy, whose star exploded during an eight-shot, record-setting romp in June at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Md., said Wednesday he is leaning toward taking up membership on the PGA Tour again.
McIlroy, 22, speaking before Thursday's start of the World Golf Championships-Bridgestone Invitational, said his comfort level on the Tour and the more favorable weather conditions of the USA prompted his change of heart.
MORE: Tiger Woods says he's pain-free
SCHEDULE: Bridgestone Invitational tee times
"I spoke to a couple of the guys from the Tour (Wednesday) about it, and I'm leaning towards taking my card up again, definitely," said McIlroy, who was a Tour member in 2010 but gave up his card this season. "I feel as if I play my best golf over here. I'm very comfortable in this country. I'm definitely looking towards coming back and playing a full schedule over here."
So much so that he said he's looking at homes in Florida in the Orlando, West Palm Beach and Jupiter area.
"I feel as if my game really suits playing courses over here," McIlroy said. "I love Quail Hollow, Memorial, Akron. You play Match Play, Honda, Doral, Masters. You have your favorite events, and most of my favorite events seem to be on this side of the pond. And my game suits it over here. I'm very comfortable over here. I'd like to give it a go again and obviously last more than one year and really see how it goes."
PGA Tour official Andy Pazder said McIlroy would be able to rejoin the Tour without restrictions. McIlroy has until 30 days following the Tour's last official money event — the Children's Miracle Network Classic in October — to rejoin for 2012. If he does, he would be obligated to play 15 tournaments.
"If it works out that he's rejoining the PGA Tour, obviously we're ecstatic about that," Pazder said. "An immense talent and a personable young man, he'd be an asset for us, no question. For a person to win the U.S. Open by eight shots, he captivated certainly the fans in the U.S. and frankly around the world. So to have him potentially as a member next year is very significant."

Greeley West High gets grant to fund improvements
June 16, 2013
Greeley West High School will receive a grant to fund the removal of asbestos and renovations.
The district is receiving $1.5 million from Building Excellent Schools Today and will match that grant with $423,000 to complete the project.
Greeley West is in need of a renovation because asbestos spray was used when it was originally constructed in 1965. When asbestos is left alone it is not dangerous to humans, but when disturbed it is known to cause health problems. Exposure to asbestos can cause lung cancer and a cancer of the lung lining called mesothelioma.
The grant was approved by the Colorado Department of Education on Wednesday afternoon.
"We, as a school district, applied for a cash grant," Theresa Myers, director of communication for Greeley-Evans School District 6, said. "They provide the grant to do a remodel or renovation."
Because of the asbestos, Myers said that it has been impossible to renovate the school. She said vent covers couldn't be replaced or surfaces that had been sprayed with asbestos could not be cleaned.
Renovations are set to begin summer of 2014 and are planned to end by the time classes begin in the fall of 2014, Myers said. All access to the school will be completely closed off during the asbestos removal.
"This will extend the useful life of the building for many, many years," said Wayne Eads, chief operating director for District 6, in a news release.
The renovations will include replacing the parts of the roof that are needed, replacing lighting and venting and replacing some flooring. They will also paint the inside.
"This is a really huge deal for the school," Myers said. "It will look almost like a brand new school on the inside."
The district also is building a new middle school with a BEST grant, and Myers said it was not hard to apply for another grant.
"We have a lot of needs in our facilities, and the BEST board recognizes that," Myers said. "They have been extremely helpful."

1 - 7 Final
Staal, LaRose help Hurricanes crush SenatorsNov 18, 2010 - 8:21 AM
Chad LaRose added two goals and two assists for the Hurricanes, who snapped a two-game skid. Tim Gleason had a goal and an assist for Carolina, which got 23 saves from Cam Ward.
Prior to the game, the Hurricanes acquired defenseman Ian White and troubled forward Brett Sutter from the Calgary Flames in exchange for defenseman Anton Babchuk and forward Tom Kostopoulos. Neither White nor Sutter played in Wednesday's contest.
Daniel Alfredsson scored the lone goal for the Senators, who have lost three of four since a four-game winning streak. Starter Brian Elliott allowed four goals on 16 shots in less than one period of play before being replaced by Pascal Leclaire, who allowed three goals the rest of the way.
The Senators were in Ottawa earlier Wednesday to attend the memorial service for Daron Richardson, daughter of Senators assistant coach Luke Richardson. Daron passed away at the age of 14 on Saturday, succumbing to injuries suffered during a suicide attempt the day before.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the organization and the Richardson family," Staal said. "It's obviously an awful situation. We weren't happy with our last two games, we came out ready to play and they looked like a team with a lot of their mind."
Gleason put Carolina on the board at the 4:25 mark of the first period. LaRose led a 2-on-1 rush down the right side of the ice and slid a cross-ice pass to Gleason, whose wrister snuck past Elliott.
Staal followed with a pair of power-play goals. At the 10:41 mark, Jussi Jokinen gathered the puck at the top of the right circle before sliding a pass in front to Staal, who jammed the disc past Elliott.
With 3:55 to go, Staal found the back of the net again. Jokinen's shot from the right circle set up a rebound in front for Staal, who chipped the puck past Elliott for a 3-0 lead.
LaRose lit the lamp just 41 seconds later to give Carolina a 4-0 margin. Gleason fired a shot on net from the left circle and though Elliott stopped the shot, he left a juicy rebound in front for LaRose, who put the puck into the back of the net.
Leclaire was a perfect 6-for-6 in a calm second period, but just 1:26 into the third, LaRose jammed home another rebound to make it 5-0.
Alfredsson's one-timer from the left point while on the power play put Ottawa on the board at the 9:31 mark, but Staal completed his hat trick at 13:44 and Tuomo Ruutu capped the scoring a little more than two minutes later.
Game Notes
For Carolina, it was the largest margin of victory at home over Ottawa since the Senators arrived in the NHL for the 1992-93 season...It was the most goals in one home game for the Whalers/Hurricanes franchise against the Sens since Hartford posted a 7-3 win on April 3, 1993...The Senators posted a 3-2 regulation win over a visiting Hurricanes club back on October 14...Carolina has taken the last six meetings in Raleigh...The Hurricanes also recalled defenseman Brett Carson from Charlotte (AHL)...Staal now has 202 career goals.

What is the best way to correct crater deformity while giving me the best results possible? (Photo)
Doctor Answers 6
What is the best way to correct crater deformity while giving me the best results possible?
Good Morning Xstyles54! I would be curious as to what approached the surgeon used, would need to see old operative notes. However, you would be a good candidate for scar revision of the nipple areolas (releasing the tethered nature) and fat grafting to the depressed areas. Great physique, keep working hard.
What is the best way to correct crater deformity while giving me the best results possible
I think the best option is fat injections. It will likely have to be done more than once with about a 6 month period of time between to evaluate how much of the fat survives
Gynecomastia Revision
Sorry you are having this problem. While physical exam is optimal, it appears that revision, consisting of superior chest liposuction along with fat transfer is your lower chest is your best option. Be sure to consult with a board certified plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Crater deformity after gynaecomastia procedure
Thanks for your picture and question.
Best would be to have a proper consultation with a qualified and expert plastic surgeon for assessment. Depending on the scar, depth and quality of surrounding skin and subcutaneous tissue revision of surgery can imply scar revision, fat grafting or local flaps or a combination of these technique.
Best wishes

Concerned about Indentation Years After Gynocomastia Surgery
If you have any concerns about #healing, its best to ask questions of your surgeon or their nursing staff. It's possible that any indentations could be addressed with fat grafting or cosmetic filler(s) if eligible.
Typically, its best to wait at least one year following the initial surgery to consider a revision. It is imperative you select a plastic surgeon who is #board-certified and has a great deal of experience with male breast #reduction. Plastic surgeons who have specialized in breast surgery and cosmetic surgery are suitable to perform your procedure. Aside from checking board-certification, it is suggested that you look at before and after photos of the surgeons actual patients, and read patient reviews. Gathering all of this information will help you make a well-informed decision.
Please be advised that each patient is unique and previous results are not a guarantee for individual outcomes. As with all cosmetic surgery, results will be rewarding if expectations are realistic. With any surgical procedure, there are some risks which your doctor will discuss with you during your consultation.

Crater issue?
It is hard to tell from the photos all the issues that you may have because I can not enlarge them. You might need a scar revision and some fat grafting. Best to be seen in person.

Five organizations that have experienced the benefits, challenges and ROI of desktop virtualization offer tips for successful implementations. Insider (registration required)
At the new Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, the maxim "do no harm" extends beyond caregivers to members of the technology team, especially when they undertake a sweeping desktop virtualization project that could impact the daily routine of up to 9,000 clinicians.
"If we're going to take on technology change inside a critical care setting, and with systems that serve our sickest patients, we've got to have a well-thought-out plan for making sure it works and that there's backup," says Stephen Sears, director of cloud and virtualization services at the 1.6 million-square-foot hospital.

From Raising Arizona to The Wicker Man, the Five Cagiest Nicolas Cage Films of All Time
Nicolas Cage is no mere actor -- he is a transcendental film force. He's fully capable of delivering a subtle, deep reading of a character, but he is at his best -- at his most Cage -- when he is truly cutting loose, chewing scenery and taking no prisoners. His "serious" acting chops earned him a shelf full of awards, including an Oscar for Leaving Las Vegas, but what has earned him a rabid cult following is his sheer, manic onscreen insanity. With The Church of Coen presents: Raising Arizona at Syntax Physic Opera on Sunday, February 8, Denver Cage fans will get a chance to see where it all began, and that offers us an opportunity to reflect on the films that built the legend of Cage. These aren't his best films, mind you -- these are the films in which his unique genius and singular acting style (self-described as "nouveau shamanic") are on bold display, shouting to the world, "I am CAGE, hear me roar."
See also: From Blade Runner to : What the Hell Happened to Ridley Scott?5) Raising Arizona
It can be argued that there is no more important film thanRaising Arizona
, for it introduced the world at large to not one, but two of the greatest forces in contemporary cinema. Yes, both the Coens and Cage had made other films before it, but to this day the Coens' debutBlood Simple
is criminally overlooked. As for Cage, he was certainly solid in his handful of films predatingRaising Arizona
, but this was the first time he delivered such a memorable, fully invested character as H.I. McDunnough. In scene after scene, the Cage delivers, selling out 100 percent and delivering on the role in a way few actors can. It wouldn't be the same movie without him, and that's about as high praise as any actor can ever expect.4) Vampire's Kiss
Here we see the first inklings of the true insanity of the full-blown Cage experience, in the role of a literary agent named Peter Loew who's bitten by what he believes is a vampire, precipitating a descent into madness. Or maybe vampirism. Who can say? Affecting a ridiculous accent and throwing himself, sometimes literally, into every scene, Cage has never been more ludicrous -- or more awesome -- than he was in this film. Only he could deliver lines like, "Well, I did murder someone last night. I turn into a vampire. It's a long story" with complete conviction. And talk about doing whatever it takes to deliver! He even ate a live cockroach to bring this completely insane film to life. That's dedication.Next Page

you dont wanna be too forceful in asking her. she will feel pressured into doing it if you go up and ask her face to face. bring it up softly but make sure that she is totally 100% certain brofre you do it because the worst thing is doing something you dont want to.
you can slowly approach that area and judge how she reacts. if she doesn't mind you having your hand between her legs, then you can try between her legs inside her pants, if you doesn't mind that, then she probably won't mind being touched some more. and if you are unsure, getting her sexually excited by kissing, talking, touching, before hand can help. usually when someone's excited, they feel like engaging in more sexual activities. you can ask her if she thinks whatever you're doing feels good also, and go from there.

Some days, you get great examples of rumors spreading that make little sense. Other times, you get great examples of how a single news story gets misprinted or misinterpreted, and thus becomes a viral news story for absolutely no reason. Such is the case with astronaut Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon. This morning, Twitter users around the country openly expressed condolences for the loss of Neil Armstrong, and have displayed public support for the legend. There is just one problem: Neil Armstrong died more than a year ago.
That is correct: Neil Armstrong passed away on August 25, 2012, at the ripe old age of 82. Armstrong's death was caused by complications following coronary bypass surgery earlier that month. The outpouring of grief and reflection was massive. Neil Armstrong received a national memorial in Washington D.C., and was eventually buried at sea with a full honor guard by the United States Navy. At the time, Twitter even had a popular hashtag going, #WinkAtTheMoon.
Astronaut, American hero Neil Armstrong has died. He was 82 years old. http://t.co/2hmrwNEWWC #wsbtv— Brad Nitz (@BradNitzWSB) August 27, 2013
So why is everyone on Twitter tweeting about it now? Nobody is entirely certain. However, one theory is that ABC News accidentally reposted its original news story about Armstrong's death this morning on its mobile site, with absolutely no changes made to the story. When Twitter users saw the story, they reposted it without comment or any forethought.
That people who are into read the news and thus are supposed to be smart completely forget that Neil Armstrong died is rather disturbing. But worse is the fact that the collective memory of Twitter is so shallow that some major news event that was tweeted and retweeted for weeks is completely forgotten more than a year later. Even worse is the possibility that people did not even hear about Neil Armstrong's death in the first place, despite being connected to the internet.

Away from the hurly-burly of Westminster this week (and the bizarre actions of David Davis), the big news in Manchester and for people up here is the thumbs up from the government for the Transport Innovation Fund Bid.
A Metrolink tram moves through the centre of Manchester. Photograph: Christopher Thomond
Much of the focus in the media has been about the planned congestion charging into and out of the city centre at peak times (more on this later). The less noted other side to the story, but in my view the far more transforming and significant one, is the £3bn investment into the public transport system of Greater Manchester.
This massive investment will provide a once-in-a-lifetime overhaul of the network in the city region, creating a truly world-class transport system. More trams, better buses, increased train capacity, improved stations and cycle routes that will connect the city and give people real choices about how they travel.
In my local area, for example, the extension of the tram network into Withington and Didsbury is the big news. Taken together with a fast-transit bus service up Wilmslow Road, commuters from south Manchester will soon have a choice between efficient, reliable and cost-effective public transport or driving to and from work at a cost of £2 a day in congestion charge.
For me, that's a key point about these congestion charging proposals: the charge will not come into force until these major improvements to public transport are in place. What's more, unlike in London, the congestion charge will only operate at peak times and will not cover a "zone", but apply when a motorist passes one of two "cordons" or rings.
I realise that not every area will see as many benefits from the transport cash injection, although most will. And I'm sure there will be no shortage of examples highlighted by the anti-congestion-charge lobby of people for whom this scheme creates a disadvantage. But doing nothing to tackle congestion is not an option.
Connecting people to jobs and to each other is absolutely vital to a city's economy (and to the wider economy). I know from the work I do with Nesta in encouraging innovation and enterprise in Manchester that effective transportation and connectivity is major factor in business location. In today's highly competitive, global market we cannot afford to let the city grind to a halt. This ambitious and one-off scheme will help transform Manchester into a world-class city.
It's a shame the other political parties locally don't see it this way. On the one hand the Tories in Greater Manchester cannot see beyond the inevitable concerns of motorists opposed to congestion charging - even though only one in five motorists will be affected. So much for David Cameron's green agenda. And the Lib Dems seem unable to decide whether or not they support it, even though nationally they support further road-pricing schemes. It's about time the Lib Dems stopped second guessing which position would gain them more votes, and have the courage of conviction.
Clearly we have a job to do now through the public consultation of making the case for this twin-track policy: investment in transport coupled with congestion-charging. But it's a case I'm happy to make as it's the right one for our city.
