The Economist: The Long-Term Outlook for the Texas Economy

Texas is forecast to continue to outperform the nation through the long-term horizon. The Lone Star State fared much better than most of the United States during the recession, and currently faces lesser problems in term of unemployment and housing market conditions. Recently, the state's economy has continued to improve and unemployment rates have decreased, although they remain undesirably high in a few parts of the state.
A long-term economic forecasting perspective requires a slightly different focus, with emphasis on factors which are more fundamental to growth such as demographics, education, and the changing industrial base. Texas is facing substantial challenges in some of these areas, while others are improving the state's outlook.
The Texas housing market avoided the worst of the national downturn, and many areas are now approaching sales at levels historically supported by population expansion. Foreclosures are down and permits are increasing. Inventories of homes for sale are also falling. Another source of strength is oil and gas exploration and development. Rig counts have been trending well over 900, with activity in both long-established fields (such as those in the Permian Basin) and more recent finds (such as the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas). Technological improvements have both increased total recoverable amounts and enhanced economies.
Most of the current growth in production of natural gas has come from shale formations such as the Barnett Shale in the Metroplex area and the Eagle Ford Shale (which also has substantial oil reserves). These fields are emerging as a crucial component of the nation's natural gas supply, and estimates of the total potential US supply from shale sources is rising rapidly as new fields are discovered and explored. While low gas prices are limiting new drilling at the moment, market patterns will change over the long-term horizon. Drilling for oil remains strong.
For the areas in close proximity to fields, the economic stimulus is particularly strong. Exploration and production involve huge capital investments, thousands of jobs, and millions in royalty payments. Although the Texas economy has diversified to the point where it is less tied to energy than in the past, oil and gas related activity will remain a notable source of economic stimulus for the foreseeable future.
Recent locations and expansions are also working to position Texas for future growth. A number of sizable investments in the state have substantial potential for synergistic development. The Caterpillar manufacturing facility in Victoria, technology firms such as Apple in Austin and the Metroplex, and many others will generate opportunities in the decades to come.
In spite of the good economic news for Texas, there remain substantial obstacles to continued success. Global and national issues can curtail the state's future performance. The debt crisis in Europe (and elsewhere), the "fiscal cliff" the United States is facing, and other sources of uncertainty pose threats to Texas' expansion.
The State budget situation is another cause for concern. Insufficient investment in needed infrastructure could stifle future expansion, as problems such as traffic congestion decrease the state's competitiveness for attracting corporate locations. The fundamental imbalances in State revenues and expenses must be addressed in a meaningful way or prosperity will ultimately be threatened. Another major challenge for the Lone Star State is educational attainment, but that's a topic for another day.
Balancing the strengths and challenges, The Perryman Group's latest forecast calls for reasonable expansion through the long-term forecast horizon. Compound annual growth in output (real gross product) during the 2011-2040 timeframe is expected to be 3.3%, which translates to expansion of more than $1.8 trillion. The information, durable manufacturing, and services sectors are projected to exceed a 3.9% compound annual rate of growth in output over the period.
Employment is forecast to increase at a 1.59% compound annual rate, with total gains of almost 6.4 million jobs. Sectors expected to see the largest numbers of new positions over the next three decades include services (projected to add some 3.9 million net new jobs) and wholesale and retail trade (up almost 876,000). The information sector is likely to see compound annual employment growth of more than 1.6%, while several others expand at a rate greater than 1.0%.
In conclusion, the Texas economy continues to recover from the recent recession, with notable job gains and improvement in the housing market. There are also positive trends at work, such as resurgence in traditional sources of business activity and major locations in emerging industries. At the same time, the Lone Star State must deal with key infrastructure and education issues or future economic performance will be jeopardized.
The Perryman Group's forecast calls for growth over an extended time horizon, though business cycles are inevitable. The state remains well positioned compared to most areas, and has the potential to see even better performance with meaningful solutions to fiscal and other issues.

"matilde"...that's a fine idea EXCEPT, South Texas would no longer have access to 40% of the oil refining capacity in Houston, Beaumont, Port Arthur. South Texas would no longer have access rail and highway to the largest user of petroleum products. South Texas would no longer have easy access to Universities that teach petroleum engineering. South Texas would no longer be able to easily get to areas where relatives are located. For generations, South Texas has been a drag on Texas as a whole. The State has had to spend a lot more in development, job training in South Texas than any other region.....get the drift? I suspect if Texas were divided into 4 regions, South Texas would come in in last place in just about any category you can name except for poverty. Without north and east Texas you would be without most of the petroleum industry, the world's 2nd largest seaport, the Largest Medical Center in the World, at least 2 major financial centers, NASA, all the major sports teams, headquarters to about 75 of the largest companies in the USA, 2 of the largest airports in the USA, most of the good high school football players, most of the highly regarded school districts, and on and on and on . Now, if you want to talk of Texas seceding from the USA, then I'm with you on that.

The VI Resource at Highdown supports independent learning for students with a visual impairment within a mainstream secondary school. Students are supported by a teacher for the visually impaired and experienced teaching assistants. Their aim is for their students to be catered for socially and academically in mainstream classes, but to recognise that at times students require additional support. This includes support on a one to one basis, in small groups and in the classroom, plus the acquisition of mobility, ICT and braille skills and the availability of a social area in the resource. The Resource has equipment to produce enlarged resources, plus braille and raised illustrations. Equipment available for the students' use includes laptops that are compatible with the school network, optical and electronic magnifiers, and Kindles for reading electronic books. The VI Resource is currently funded for 8 students who have statements for a visual impairment.

Tel: 01489 785040 Fax: 01489 785040 Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Web: www.kingscopse.co.uk
Kings Copse Primary School has a purpose built resource base for children with a visual impairment, known as the OASIS (Outreach And Sight Impairment Support). The OASIS is staffed by a Qualified Teacher of the Visually Impaired (QTVI) and learning support assistants who specialise in visual impairment (VI). The resource base offers room for quiet working and access to a range of specialist resources suitable for children with VI. The children with VI spend most of their time in class where they are supported as necessary by the VI Team. They also offer 'in-reach' sessions where children with VI across Hampshire are invited to attend themed sessions once a month. This means that parents (with their children) can access their provision even if their child attends their local mainstream school.

Self-made millionaire Robert Herjavec, who serves as one of the business experts on Shark Tank
PASADENA, Calif. — At first glance, people might think of Robert Herjavec as the angelfish of Shark Tank.
As one of the business experts on a panel for the ABC reality show that evaluates entrepreneur wannabes, Herjavec remains the positive one.
He has reason to be. From less than humble beginnings, Herjavec has parlayed a combination of will and focus to earn a fortune mostly in the field of technology. He has started and sold several enterprises, including a technology company he sold to Nokia for $225 million.
Yet the 49-year-old says he never wanted to launch his own company. "The only reason I started my own company was, the guy fired me, and I couldn't get a job in time to pay my mortgage. "So I started a business — just went out and sold something."
Herjavec thinks he inherited his drive from his parents, who emigrated from Yugoslavia to Canada when Robert was 8. His father had been jailed 20 times in his native land for speaking out against communism.
"Dad would tell you he was a political prisoner, but the reality was, he was a young kid, drank too much, would go into a bar, stand up and say bad things about communism. "And, back then, you weren't allowed to do that.
"My dad's the kind of guy who, the more you pushed him, the harder he pushed back."
The first time his father was incarcerated, he was beaten so badly that he almost died, Herjavec said. He finally moved his family to Canada.
Herjavec began working professionally at age 12, doing commercials. He later worked as an assistant director and produced the Canadian Winter Olympics in 1984. His last gig on a movie went sour, and he was looking for work. "A friend of mine had a computer-science degree, and he and I were having a beer. "I was complaining about my job, and he was complaining about the fact that he didn't get this interview in technology. "It was paying $30,000 a year in 1984. And I went to see the guy, and I got the job. I was 21."
At the time, the computer age was in its infancy.
"I got in at the beginning of the big wave, and I just stayed in it for 30 years," he says.
"I'm very adept. I think that's my best quality."
When the Canadian version of Shark Tank was starting six years ago, producers found Herjavec. Four years ago, Mark Burnett (Survivor) summoned him for the American version.
For all his success, Herjavec didn't start out that way. "The guy I am today is not the guy I was when I was young."
Married for 23 years, Herjavec has three children, 19, 16 and 14. His secret, he says, is to remain positive.
"You either live your life like every day is a miracle or you live your life like nothing is a miracle. And I believe that. And I'm a happy guy."

From Ron Paul to President Obama: Armed Forces and Military Show Overwhelming Support for Obama in Donations
Friday, October 26th, 2012This should not be a surprise to anyone who has been following foreign policy and the pulse of our military and veterans. It's a fact: military members are tired
of being deployed 4 or 5 times. Military dependents, relatives, friends and Americans are sick and tired of a decade of war implemented by George W. Bush. We are spending billions and billions of dollars in tax payer money as we bomb other countries only to rebuild their infrastructures.
As a woman veteran of the Armed Forces, I take issue with people like Romney who want to become our Commander in Chief — yet, Mitt dodged the draft 4 times. Perhaps I might be more open to Mitt's request of increasing our $2.1 trillion in defense if he had put his own ass on the line. What does Romney want an increase of $2.1 trillion for? It smells of war mongering to me, and Americans need to start choosing our battles more carefully because we need to minimize bloodshed after a decade of war.
From Center of Responsive Politics:
Update: Armed Forces Show Overwhelming Support for Obama
Update, Oct. 21: Fundraising numbers for the month of September show Obama continuing to dominate when it comes to contributions from the military. The new data, which came in after the story below was published Oct. 15, show he raised $142,197, just a shade less than he collected in August, his strongest month with this set of donors. Romney brought in $111,015 for his best month ever with military donors, but that was still 22 percent less than Obama received.
The new numbers bring Obama's total from military donors to $678,611, and Romney's to $398,450.
Foreign policy, military funding and plans for U.S. troops abroad are providing plenty of chewy campaign fodder for President Barack Obama and his GOP rival, Mitt Romney. But fundraising reports shed light on what the armed forces think about the the candidates.
Former Republican presidential hopeful Ron Paul received significant support from the military for his strong stance on bringing troops home, and that briefly continued even after Romney pulled ahead as the clear GOP candidate.
Now, though, the military's support has shifted toward Obama. Romney has consistently received little financial backing from military donors.
Despite the fact that Paul once raised almost twice as much as Obama did from the military, the president has received $536,414 from military donors, compared to Paul's $399,274 and Romney's $287,435, according to research by the Center for Responsive Politics. These numbers are based on donations greater than $200, as reported to the Federal Election Commission.

Reload the page and try again.
C A+F Local Atmosphere: There is stuff to do, but it sure is diffrent than big cities.
C A+F Greek Life: Greek life on campus is okay, I would never join.
B A+F Health & Safety: I feel safe one campus and my health is well taken care of.
B A+F Diversity: The school is very diverse and has wide variety of people on campus.
B A+F Facilities: The school has many hangouts and wonderful school spirit.
C A+F Computers: The campus computers are a bit slow, but they are good to do homework on.
B A+F Overall Experience: I enjoy being a student at Colorado State University Pueblo. The closeness to home is wonderful and allows me to help take care of my family.
C A+F Campus Housing: I do not live on campus. Most of the students who live on campus love it.
C A+F Campus Dining: I haven't used campus dining, but I hear that it is okay from other students.
C A+F Drug Safety: I do not live on campus, so do not see weekend parties, but hear stories from classmates. We have a strong program that just started encouraging students to designate a sober driver. The school is working toward positive reinforcement of staying sober.
C A+F Off-Campus Dining: Mostly off-campus dining is your normal chain restaurants, but there are a few good local places. Downtown has a great burger place and several places offer student discounts.
C A+F Majors: I had some issues finding out if my post BA work toward a BSN counted as the pre-nursing advisor did not have access to my information at first. She was very helpful, and we worked it out, but it took finding out who needed to release that information. They did completely accept my first BA, so I did not have to retake any basic classes, even though it had been 25 years.
B A+F Majors: I have not had a chance to do an internship, but there are plenty of opportunities available.
B A+F Overall Experience: I enjoy the small class size and getting to know your professors. It is difficult being a non-traditional transfer student. They do not really tell you what is available for non-traditional students who are not veterans, so you have to figure out some things for yourself. Otherwise, the staff is friendly and helpful.
Campus Housing: I don't live on campus, I live off campus away from the location.
D A+F Parking: There is always parking at the distance campus that I attend.
D A+F Transportation: No transportation at the distance campus is offered.
C A+F Computers: They have a writing center but offer Wi-Fi all over the campus.
C A+F Academics: Being a social work major is kind of difficult since I attend a distance campus from the main location. It's strict and almost hard to reach those that I need to be in contact with.
C A+F Academics: I'm not particularly thrilled with any professors thus far and feel like I am not challenged enough with the workload.
B A+F Scholarships: It went pretty well. I didn't have any issues getting this process figured out.
C A+F Diversity: They have a little bit of everything. At the distance campus, it's mostly older adults.
C A+F Local Atmosphere: It's not bad, it's filled with military.
Athletics: I don't participate in athletics.
C A+F Majors: I had to take a class that I had already taken that had small relevance to my degree.

Written by Brittany Ferguson
Colorado State University Pueblo is in a small town, so going to this school is a different kind of University experience. Someone who is interested in having large lecture classes, seeing different people every day, or even attending big events all of the time is not going to enjoy this campus and what the University atmosphere is all about. The average class size is about 30 students, and the big lecture classes only hit about 50 people. It's a small community; everywhere you go, you will know at least one other person. The campus size can be compared to a high school, so compared with other colleges, it's not big at all. However, a small campus means less going on all of the time, including shows, speakers, or even weekend parties.
There are advantages to attending a smaller school, though. Closer connections with professors benefit students with their grades as well as with individualized attention during and after class. There is nothing wrong with this school if you are interested in this kind of environment. Also, with a small university, tuition is cheaper. Many students would attend the University again if they had a do-over due to the favorable factors including the small classes, more attention from professors, and lower tuition prices. However, many students would not attend this school for their graduate degrees, as the school is not as impressive compared to other schools available.

Aspen Grille
Online Reservations
Aspen Grille has become our favorite "fancy" resturant in MB. We went with our guest who were celebrating their anniversary. Our waiter was very good. Not overbearing, just making sure everything was to our liking. The food was excellent. My favorite was the fried green tomatoes with jumbo lump crab! We enjoy going there, getting a little dressed up, and having a great consistently good meal! We will be back in Oct!
Service was attentive, we did not feel rushed. We had a reservation and were shown to a table by the entrance. I know from past experience that this table is used for people without a reservation. I commented on the choice of seating and the hostess showed us to a "better" table. This one was right by the kitchen door and I could look over the partition and see the servers area. By observing the goings on around us, I could see that the "regulars" got preferential treatment. Aside from this, the food was wonderful. Everything was prepared with care and attention to detail. My veal loin was a perfect medium rare and my husband's pork chop was moist and flavorful. This was my third time at Aspen Grille and I will return because of the food.
Fried green tomatoes with crab = fabulous Hog fish over grit cakes = unbelievable This was a great place to get away from the crazy beach crowd. Looked like most of the people were locals. The food is the star here.
We had been to Aspen Grille before and loved it! The food and atmosphere were amazing and also were this time. But it was somewhat noisy and service was a little slow this time. It could have been due to it being holiday weekend though. So all in all a still great time at Aspen Grille!
There are always off the menu signature dishes which are great here
A very good restaurant anywhere--probably rates outstanding in the Myrtle Beach area. A questionable selection of wines by the glass is my only negative note.
My husband and I tried Aspen Grille after consulting with Yelp. and BOY were we thrilled. We had a delicious fig appetizer followed by filet mignon with bearnaise sauce for me and Flounder Oscar special for my husband. As amateur chefs, we both know how to cook and this meal did not disappoint. One of the reviews on Yelp suggested that the food at Carrabba Grill was cheaper and just as good. I cannot believe anyone would think that. Our food was fantastic. Worth every penny we paid. Our server, Wayne was fantastic. He was right there when we wanted him and disappeared when we didn't. Overall, our best meal in Myrtle Beach.
Superb food and attentive service, I'd gladly dine there again!
The food was AMAZING and so was our server. He had so much charisma. Also, the pianist really set the tone for the restaurant. You definitely have to make a reservation, as the place was packed. My boyfriend and I went while we were on vacation and we loved it. He's 25 and I'm 22, so we obviously don't dine at places like this often, but I truly enjoyed myself. He had the French Onion Soup and I enjoyed the Shrimp Bisque, for our entree we both had the shrimp and grits. For dessert we had the Old Fashioned Pound Cake, which was superb! Before our table was ready we hit the bar; drinks were good. With tip it probably cost around $100 so its not cheap at all, but its soooo worth it!
Everything about our eating experience was outstanding. A little pricey but WORTH it.
This was my first visit there. I enjoyed my meal very much. I would return to this restaurant.
Food was outstanding and the wine list selections excellent. The noise level was more than expected for a romantic dinner with my wife.
We enjoyed another visit to Aspen Grille. It continues to be our favorite fine dining destination in Myrtle Beach. We have never been disappointed.
My husband and I found the restaurant from doing a search of romantic places for dinner and we were not let down! From when we first entered in we were in love with the atmosphere. Our reservation was for 9pm and we arrived twenty minutes early. By 9 our table was ready for us. Before we even tasted the food we were in love. When our food arrived there is no better way to explain the taste than AMAZING! I was extremely pleased with my dish and my husband would've licked the plate if he could. We will definitely be returning.
Never have had a bad meal here, and the service is exceptional from the time you walk in until they say goodbye.
There were four of us in our party and each one had a different entree. Each entree was prepared as requested and the service was impeccable. I would certainly recommend Aspen Grille and look forward to my next visit when in Myrtle Beach
Crab cakes and scallops were both prepared to perfection and service was excellent.
We are in Myrtle Beach quite often as we own a vacation home there. Aspen Grille is a standout among the many dining options in the area. The drinks are awesome, the wine list is varied, interesting and reasonable. The menu offers many choices expertly made, featuring Low-Country flare. The servers are always friendly and attentive. It is consistanly excellent. One of our favorite spots.
The food was excellent. Crab appetizer so delicious and market fresh grouper entree, amazing. Will definitely return. Only thing I would change was seating, would ask to sit away from kitchen area for special occasion.
We went to Aspen when my mom was visiting per a friend's recommendation. It was fantastic. We ordered cocktails instead of wine for drinks. We ordered fried green tomatoes and the goat cheese crostinis as apps. Both were awesome, especially the goat cheese. We all ordered salads. Two cesars and a mixed green. Nothing special about the cesars but the veggies on the mixed green were huge and very colorful. For entrees we had the market fish which was grouper that night, scallops served with risotto, and shrimp and grits. I'd order all three again. We finished with dessert. We had Creme brûlée, a ten layer yellow cake with chocolate buttercream icing (a special), and the German chocolate brownie sundae.
My husband and I had dinner for our anniversary. The food was excellent, service was excellent and might have been the best brownie sundae we've ever had! I can't wait to go back!
Had an exceptional meal here. The atmosphere was fine. The flounder diablo special was awesome! dessert was great as well. Will return for sure..
Off to a good start with a Grapefruit and Basil martini! We selected the lamb and scallop dishes and ordered as small plates. Some people are looking for that large portion, but for us this option was just the right amount of food! Both of these dishes were outstanding and the layers of flavors proved that a small plate does not have to sacrifice on BIG taste. The lamb was cooked to perfection, fell off the bone and melted in our mouths! We will return for more on our next visit into town!
For what was served to us I believe the cost was a little too high. Although the service was outstanding the restaurant seemed to be a little thrown off by request for dietary need. Simple things were not obtainable and request to cook an item differently (steamed or broiled) (no oils) (no butters) seems to cause great difficulty amongst the staff and cooks. The requests were not that hard. I think those in charge need to have a look at how to better handle those that require dietary changes. Simple changes of course.
One of our favorite restaurants when visiting the beach, and were only disappointed this time due to slowness of the kitchen. But in fairness to the chef, reservations were fully booked and there was a large private party in the private dining room being served at the same time as our entrees should have been. But the company and the quality of the food and wine helped overcome the disappointment and we'll be back.
When I made the reservation, I commented that it was Don's birthday. As we were met by the hostess, she asked which was "Don" and wished him a Happy Birthday. The waiter wished him a Happy Birthday when he greater us. After we ordered, the hostess brought over a handwritten note from the owners and staff and later Don's dessert had a lighted candle on it. All done very low key and done thoughtfully. We both appreciated how it was handled so that it was a special occasion for us. And...the waiter was very helpful in suggesting wines for the meal and entrees for our meal. Everything we had was delicious in every way. Our second time at Aspen Grille and both have been memorable for the food and service.
Upscale dining with delicious entrees and great piano music on Wednesday and Saturday.
This was a great restaurant. I took my girlfriend on our first date. Amazing! and Desert!!! WOW!! 10 layer cake.. excellent!
EVERYTHING at this restaurant was excellent. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was lovely, the service was friendly and on time. I would return to this restaurant anytime.
My wife and I love dining at Aspen Grille. The service is spot on and the food is the best in Myrtle Beach by far. We love the local and sustainable dishes the chef creates. Their wine list covers a nice range of wines and is not too expensive. Thank you for another fantastic night out!
There were five of us at the Aspen Grille, and all agreed the visit was a delightful experience. Please concentrate on your selection of soups and salads. All of my guests were most pleased, saying everything was fresh and extremely well prepared.
Great spot in Myrtle area. Will go back for sure if in Myrtle again!!!
Food was excellent... Will recommend to others and we will definitely make this one of our new favorites!!!
Great place for a Birthday. Nice menu variety and all of the 6 different entrees at our table were Excellent.
Food and service are outstanding. Very attentive to every detail for a great meal and great experience.
I am a local, around the corner as I live on 35th N. I have visited your establishment three times in the last several months with different folks, which in turn have introduced 11 new customers to your fine establishment. The only negative thing I have seen is the time in which we sat with a larger group in the baseball glove booth. The seats had tape on them, too nice of a place to have colored duct tape, Love the place and will be back
We go to Aspen often all though we live in Virginia. Every time we visit we make sure to go to your restaurant & bring friends & family with us. You have become a favorite of theirs as well.
We went to Aspen Grille for my wife's birthday. The food was outstanding, great meal for a great price.
Enjoyed a gumbo with duck confit and ham which had outstanding flavor. Duck breast with beet puree and local greens had superior balance and cooked perfectly
We were advised by friends to be sure and visit Aspen when in MB. Everything said about this restaurant was pleasantly confirmed plus some. Could not have had a better experience. Return? You bet, whenever in The Strand area. And that special seating in the tall, round banquette is astounding. Will request next time.
Everything was wonderful, from our crab remoulade appetizer to the peach cobbler dessert. Fantastic martinis, too!
Excellent preparation and presentation. All of the staff is very professional and attentive. Excellent quality at a reasonable price. Nice variety to meet everyone's taste. We have never been disappointed.
We love when chefs incorporate local ingredients to their menu. The pomegranate martini was perfectly balanced with the right amount of flavor and very smooth. The scallops were cooked to perfection and melted like butter. The accompanied risotto and spinach was amazing. For dessert we shared the white chocolate bread pudding and we're surprised by the delicious homemade blueberry ice cream. It was a pleasant surprise. We will be back for our next visit!
Once again, dinner at the Aspen Grille did not disappoint. We dined Wednesday before Thanksgiving. Our group had shrimp and grits; stuffed flounder; baked chicken and Grouper Aspen style. All dishes were excellent. Service was fantastic!
Food and service was excellent . A little pricy but worth it. Deffinately a go to place in Myrtle Beach.
First time eating at Aspen Grille and definitely will not be the last. Food, service, overall atmosphere were fantastic. Best place I've eaten at while visiting Myrtle beach. Highly recommend.
This wonderful restaurant and staff have never disappointed us. We center our dining experiences in Myrtle Beach around this favorite location. It's not for the budget pocketbook, but well worth it! We especially enjoy the live entertainment which complements the great meal and table service. Be sure to take advantage of the nightly specials.
We are new to the Myrtle Beach area. Were happy to discover a very nice, fine dining experience, as there is not many to be found in this city geared to tourists.
My wife and I went to Aspen Grille for a nice evening out, and we were very happy with our choice. Live jazz music added to the already pleasant atmosphere, but was not so loud that we needed to raise our voices to carry on a conversation. The wine selection was very impressive (although I opted for one of their high-end whiskeys). The soup di jour was excellent, the bread was soft with a chewy crust, the steak was cooked perfectly, and the asparagus was tender and crisp with just the right amount of seasoning. We opted to take dessert to-go, and were glad that we did - the 10-layer "old-fashioned" had the perfect cake-to-frosting ratio, was moist, and delicious.
The food at Aspen Grille never ceases to delight. Menu standards are excellent, carefully prepared and presented. Specials intrigue and tempt the palate. Service is consistently excellent.

Brilliant red with hints of bay leaf, herbs and spicy blackcurrants on the nose, typically Chilean in style. The palate offers blackcurrant, cassis and blackberry, soft tannins with lingering spicy fruit and a firm finish.
Intense, deep red in colour with an explosively fruity, varietal nose of ripe plums with fresh mint notes. The palate is mouth filling, with ripe raspberries and blackcurrants on the palate. Shows a firm structure, with good depth and soft tannins, a distinctly Chilean style.
Deep garnet in colour with hints of purple, has a classic nose of cassis and ripe berry fruit, with hints of spice. On the palate it is full bodied, with a fine structure of ripe tannin and complex concentrated fruit.
Rich and intensely red in the glass with a generously aromatic, ripe nose loaded with blackberry and plum fruit. An attractive balance of fleshy fruit and oak on the palate with notes of mint, rounded velvety tannins that soften its firm structure and dry finish.
Cherry red in colour with fresh and intense aromas of cherry on the nose with a touch of rose petals. A medium bodied wine with fresh red fruit and a refreshing acidity and richness.

When I talked with American Seed Trade Association (ASTA) CEO Andy LaVinge at the National Association of Farm Broadcasting meeting the 2013 CSS & Seed Expo was still three weeks away, but all of the sudden it's next week already!
I am heading to Chicago for the 68th annual Corn and Sorghum Seed Research Conference/43rd Soybean Seed Research Conference on Monday where I will be joined by Leah Guffey to bring you coverage of this important meeting "where seed business gets done." Thanks to ASTA and BASF Crop Protection for sponsoring our coverage. BASF will be will be discussing their seed solutions profile today since they officially announced their plans with Becker Underwood at this meeting last year.
The new portfolio is the result of combined breakthroughs from the BASF global research and development platform and Becker Underwood's biological seed treatment, seed treatment colors and polymer technologies.
Andy says there will be a big focus at the meeting this year on seed treatment stewardship and a new guide available under the industry banner of Seed Treatment Matters. "We got together with CropLife American, and the major grower groups – National Corn Growers, American Soybean, National Cotton Council and American Farm Bureau Federation – to talk about the adoption of new technologies we've seen on seed," he said. "We want to make sure that technology is properly stewarded."
The guide developed by the groups is available at seed-treatment-guide.com and it will also be offered and discussed at 2014 grower meetings.

Don't put up with three-day-old seafood smells!
24 December 2008
Port Macquarie-Hastings Council is looking after the practical side of Christmas this year with the confirmation that waste collection services will be in full swing, even on Christmas Day.
Council's Waste Education Officer Ali Bigg explains.
"While almost all retail and service industries take a break on Christmas Day, Council recognises that this is perhaps the busiest time of year for residential waste generation. The combination of Christmas feasts, additional visitors and mountains of wrapping paper can put a burden on the domestic bin system.
"We are pleased to advise that domestic bin collection services will remain unchanged over Christmas, so even if your bin day is Thursday December 25, your bin will be collected," said Ms Bigg.
In addition to the domestic collection service Council is encouraging residents to dispose of general waste and recycling by waiving the usual four dollar standard boot load fee on Boxing Day and New Years Day.
"Domestic quantities of recycling, steel and hazardous waste are always free to drop off at any transfer station but we hope to make it easier for people to dispose of large amounts of seafood or meat waste and those Christmas extras with the two free days," confirmed Ms Bigg.
Waste Transfer Stations will be closed on Christmas Day only and there will be no Kerbside Collection bookings taken for Monday December 29.

The historic closing of 49 elementary schools in Chicago left many parents bitter and feeling left out as they try to get involved in new schools. Yet parent engagement is essential for school improvement, and principals are faced with the challenge of building trust at schools that scored poorly on surveys of parent involvement.
Issues prior to September 1995 are available in PDF format only. Click here to browse our early archives.
Back Issues
Fall 2013
Summer 2013
A raft of past programs have failed to substantially improve the reading skills of middle grade and high school students. CPS is trying once again, as part of a federal project that aims to help teens learn how to analyze complex non-fiction. |
Spring 2013
As CPS prepares to close a record number of schools, the fate of students and communities is in question. |
Winter 2013
A special diversity initiative has given promising black students from the worst elementary schools a seat in top high schools. But the program's success won't close the gap for poorer students who need better prospects for a good education. |
Fall 2012
Chicago Public Schools is seizing the reins on principal preparation and is considered by some observers to be a national model for its $10 million Chicago Leadership Collaborative. The big question: Will the effort dramatically improve the quality of principals at failing schools that need strong leadership the most? |
Summer 2012
District leaders understand that children who have witnessed violence or other traumatic events often have trouble in school. But without extra resources or staff, schools are hard-pressed to offer the mental health support that would help students cope with their experience. |
Spring 2012
Even as CPS opens more new schools, children with special needs have a tougher time finding options. Placements in private therapeutic schools are scarce, and some charters are reluctant to enroll them. |
Winter 2012
Research shows that Latinos who remain in bilingual programs long term risk falling behind in the middle grades and failing once they reach high school. CPS is taking long-awaited steps to launch dual-language programs, a strategy that is gaining steam nationally to help students become proficient in their native language and in English. |
Fall 2011
Marshall High and other turnaround high schools, in Chicago and nationally, face a thorny dilemma. Higher-performing students are being siphoned off through competition, driving down enrollment and raising tough policy questions about the future of these schools. |
Summer 2011
CPS has no policy requiring full-day kindergarten, no cohesive literacy curriculum and no comprehensive plan to transition children from preschool to kindergarten. Some children have a rich experience, while others get a bare-bones start. This issue on kindergarten, the critical year in which students make the transition to formal schooling, was made possible by a grant from the McCormick Foundation. For more about the foundation, go to www.mccormickfoundation.org. |
Spring 2011
Mayor Richard M. Daley got tough on students with a strict promotion policy, making them pass a standardized test before moving to the next grade. Today, the test is less of an obstacle and few students fail, prompting some to ask whether social promotion has returned. |
Winter 2011
A Catalyst Chicago analysis found that the demographics of the CPS teaching force has shifted in the last 10 years: 62 percent of teachers with five years of experience or less are white, compared to 48 percent in 2000. Schools of education are seeking to do more to help teacher candidates understand their minority students. |
