Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
Some years ago, chief winemaker, Chester Osborn, sought out additional premium Grenache fruit from McLaren Vale to meet the high demand for d'Arenberg's Grenache-based wines. Amongst others, a particular vineyard planted thirty years ago with Grenache appeared promising, and was the inspiration in the naming of this wine.
Last used for grape production two decades ago, the vineyard fell into neglect and was utilized as a horse paddock. Horses had trampled on the vines making them unproductive. Vine pruning occurred sporadically when the horses snacked on them. Long bracken ferns and native grasses up to a meter high entwined with, and hid the vines. The vines themselves resembled Medusa's hair - wild, thick, struggling and gnarled. Taming and rejuvenation of the vineyard occurred over several years with weeding, reposting, trellising and pruning undertaken. The exceptionally low yielding Grenache was hand-picked late in vintage.
The palate starts with a huge Wam! of flavor. Thick, ripe mulberries, blackberries and blueberries progress into a rich, gutsy, licorice and bitumen palate, followed by masses of powerful, youthful, gritty fruit tannins, layered with tones of flowery, cranberry and dark fruit flavors, and a youthful acidity.
This is a wine of intense concentration. With time, the tannins will somewhat soften and integrate as the fruit flavors open. Enjoy with grilled chicken or lamb. Drink now or cellar for 5-7 years.
One of the undisputed kings of Australian Shiraz and Rhone varietals, d'Arenberg has managed to turn individuality into an art form by doing a whole lot of little things differently. The original vineyards were established by Joseph Osborn in 1912 in the McLaren Vale region of South Australia. A century on, the estate has grown to 345 acres, and the mantle now rests with fourth...Read More About d'Arenberg
McLaren Vale is home to the oldest Australian vineyard, with grapes planted in 1838. It's a coastal area, the Indian Ocean bordering the west, which leads to a cooling factor that prevents the grapes from getting too hot. In all, the climate is a perfect one for the vines. Notable Facts In McLaren Vale, there are vines as far as the eye can see. As in other parts of...Read More About McLaren Vale
Grenache (greh-NAASH) Sun-Worshiper This sun-worshiping grape gets ripe and loves hot, dry weather. Popular in Spain (called Garnacha), Australia and the southern Rhone region of France, Grenache is the primary grape in regions such as Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Tavel, and Priorat.

There are mornings in which words are too much; the previous night's tension has not yet left my jaw, and the stream of questions and entreats–rapid-fired from little mouths which don't yet require caffeine–proves too much for my overwrought mind. Like the aspens which bend before my window in pre-dawn wind, I too have spent a night being battered: by images, by fragments of what I said and she said; by imaginings and second thoughts about the shape of a scraggly juniper which, the day before, met its match in a pair of long, sharp shears. It can be anything, these ruminations that keep me up at night.
And then there are the voices of my day, those which emanate unrehearsed, live from the moment as it uncoils. I want to savor these young voices, to delight in staccato speech and the sputtering of words just learned. But at times, my need for stillness and silence prevents me from such revelry. At times, I seek only to tame the wild moment, because the unpredictability of parenting—which in my mind leans toward chaos—can prove too much for my pattern-seeking nature.
I've written often about my difficulty with motherhood (here, here and here, for example). And each time I do so, I worry about how my daughters will respond when they, one day, read the ancient musings of their mother. Will they confuse my feelings about the role of motherhood with my feelings about them? Will they believe, if I acknowledge frustration with the fact that motherhood tends to be isolating and repetitious for me, that I love them less? Or that they are responsible for my feelings?
The concept of modern motherhood is nothing if not a contradiction: we are told that we're responsible for everything our child does, but then that we've overstepped our bounds and become too controlling; we are told to keep all potentially harmful substances—from pesticides to plastics–away from our children, but then told we should give our kids freedom and room to roam; we are taught to attend to their emotional, social, physical, intellectual, and spiritual needs, but then written off as helicopter parents, unable to separate from the children we've inadvertently smothered. (But don't dare back too far away from your precious and needy children, lest you want to be called selfish–perhaps the biggest sin in motherhood.)
This confusion about the optimal distance between mother and child boils down to this: Are mothers supposed to have their own lives and experiences, independent from those of their children? Most of us would answer a resounding "yes." Yet it's likely we still fear that our distance may harm our children, because it implies that our availability will be limited. (If you disagree, consider the so-called Mommy wars, and the heated debate about whether the children of working mothers are damaged by being in daycare; this remains an emotionally loaded and highly provocative issue.)
Another incarnation of this question is whether mothers are entitled to have—and give voice to—their negative experiences with motherhood. Publicly acknowledging such sentiments may feel taboo, as though a sacred institutional pact has been breached by a disloyal member.
Then there is the idea that our children will be harmed if we articulate the challenges of motherhood or show them that we're struggling. It is true that a parent's emotional outpouring can be distressing or even damaging for a child, particularly if it is accompanied by abusive behavior, or if it is ongoing and representative of mental illness. And children shouldn't be asked to provide counsel or emotional support to parents struggling with their own issues. But I suspect that our fear of acknowledging maternal dissatisfaction derives not just from our desire to protect children, but from the age-old belief that women are not full-fledged subjects in their own lives, entitled to their own experiences and reactions, but rather baby-making machines.
On days in which parenting takes the wind from my sails, I think of the ballerina in my daughter's musical jewelry box. Each time the box is opened, I'm surprised to see her spring to life; I assume that she's been permanently destroyed, due to rough treatment from dirt-encrusted hands and a sharp hinge which comes dangerously close to decapitating her. But there she is, rising again when the box is next opened, turning steadily as ever to the tune of "It's a Small World."
Most mothers can likely relate to this tenacious plastic doll: we endure and persevere, and sometimes surprise ourselves with our own resiliency. But, unlike the doll, we need to vent and spill and gripe about our lives, especially on days when our own spring fails–days when we're not sure we're cut out for this thing called motherhood. In the end, there is no template, no right way to be a mom. And at times, we all feel dissatisfaction and despair. But ideally we can surround ourselves not just with children and their buckets of toys and clothes and carriers, but with other mothers who speak their truth and say, "I hear you" when we speak ours.
How about you–do you tell others if you're struggling? And do you think mothers are encouraged to speak of their dissatisfaction with the role?

Options Glossary: T
Technical analysis
A method of predicting future stock price movements based on the study of historical market data such as (Among others) the prices themselves, trading volume, open interest, the relation of advancing issues to declining issues, and short selling volume.
Theoretical option pricing model
The first widely-used model for option pricing. This formula can be used to calculate a theoretical value for an option using current stock prices, expected dividends, the option's strike price, expected interest rates, time to expiration and expected stock volatility. While the Black-Scholes model does not perfectly describe real-world options markets, it is still often used in the valuation and trading of options.
Theoretical value
The estimated value of an option derived from a mathematical model. See also Model and Black-Scholes formula.
A measure of the rate of change in an option's theoretical value for a one-unit change in time to the option's expiration date. See also Time decay.
Time decay
A term used to describe how the theoretical value of an option 'erodes' or reduces with the passage of time. Time decay is specifically quantified by theta.
Time spread
An option strategy which generally involves the purchase of a farther-term option (Call or put) and the writing of an equal number of nearer-term options of the same type and strike price. Example: buying 1 XYZ May 60 call (Far-term portion of the spread) and writing 1 XYZ March 60 call (Near-term portion of the spread). Also known as calendar spread or horizontal spread.
Time value
The part of an option's total price that exceeds its intrinsic value. The price of an out-of-the-money option consists entirely of time value.
- Any investor who makes frequent purchases and sales.
- A member of an exchange who conducts his or her buying and selling on the trading floor of the exchange.
Trading pit / Pit

Roaming Robots: Build Your Own Underwater Robot
The world's oceans are home to the most strange and amazing creatures. What do scientists know about these deep-sea animals and how can they study them easily? One way to learn about these animals in their homes is to use underwater robots. Underwater robots can record data that would be difficult for humans to gather. But what are robots and how are they made? In this robotics engineering project, you will discover what makes up a simple robot and build and test your own underwater robot.Objective
To build a simple underwater robot.
Michelle Maranowski, PhD, Science Buddies
This project is based on the following article from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. (n.d.). Build an underwater robot. Retrieved May 24, 2012, from http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/education/for_fun/BuildUnderwaterRobot.pdf.

The ocean is divided into five zones. These zones go from the surface of the water (0 meters [m]) all the way down to 11,000 m, where there is no longer any light and the pressure of the water can crush a car. Although very little light exists at extreme depths, these deep zones are home to some of the world's most bizarre and fascinating creatures. Animals like viperfish, rat-tailed fish, and giant isopods, shown in Figure 1 below. Scientists can learn a lot by studying these creatures. But the zones where these animals live are very cold and dark, and the pressures are too high for humans to work safely. How do scientists gather information about deep-sea creatures? They rely on underwater robots to do the hard work.
Figure 1. This collection of amazing deep sea creatures includes a (a) viperfish, (b) rat-tailed fish, and (c) giant isopod. |
But what are robots and how can they help us? Robots are machines often made to do jobs that are boring, repetitive, or dangerous for humans, like detecting leaks in gas pipelines, or getting rid of landmines. Robots can work in harsh environments, like the ocean or in space, unsafe for humans. An example of a space robot is the Mars Rover. This robot went to the planet Mars to gather information for scientists. An example of an ocean robot is the Tethys underwater robot made by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute (MBARI). This robot is designed to follow sea organisms while recording the physical and chemical properties of the water around them. Check out this video introduction to the Tethys underwater robot.
This video shows Tethys, an underwater robot that helps scientist at MBARI learn more about the oceans. |
There are two kinds of underwater robots: remotely operated vehicles and autonomous underwater vehicles. Remotely operated vehicles (or ROVs) are connected to a cable that allows a human to control the robot from a ship or boat on the ocean surface or from within the robot. Figure 2 below shows a ROV robot. Autonomous underwater vehicles (or AUVs) are controlled by computers on board the robot, and can operate without being connected to the surface. Because both ROV and AUV robots contain computers and electronic equipment, underwater robots need to be waterproof. This means that water cannot damage the equipment because it is inside a covering that prevents water from coming in.
Figure 2. This ROV robot operated by Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institution is 7.2 m long, 3.3 m high and 2.5 m wide and can explore to a depth of more than 900 m. Notice the scientist sitting in the acrylic sphere. (Photo by: National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration [NOAA]) |
In this robotics engineering project, you will build an underwater robot, an ROV, that moves up and down using a motor, propeller, and a plastic clothes hanger. Before you start the project, you will need to figure out how and where to test the robot. Will you test it in a swimming pool or in a large container? (Note: Do not test it in a saltwater pool, as this can be dangerous.) If you decide to test the robot in a large container, make sure that the container is deep enough and large enough to hold the clothes hanger. Since the motor is a piece of electrical equipment, you will have to waterproof it by using a balloon to cover the motor and making sure that the edges of the balloon are glued to the surface of the motor. After putting these pieces together, you will have a cool robot that works underwater and is lots of fun to experiment with.

Waterproofing the Motor
This section of the project requires help from an adult. While it is not difficult to waterproof the motor, it does require carefully cutting and gluing the balloon around the motor. If you do not glue and cover the motor properly, water can leak into the motor through the shaft, which can damage the motor.
- Figure 3 below shows a motor and a balloon. Notice the size of the balloon; it is large enough to contain the entire motor.
Figure 3. Balloon and motor. The balloon is large enough to hold the entire motor. |
- Carefully stretch the balloon end to end and side to side, to make it more pliable.
- Holding the motor in the palm of one hand, insert your first two fingers from both hands into the collar of the balloon and stretch it open.
- If you find it difficult to insert the motor into the balloon on your own, ask your volunteer to stretch open the balloon while you insert the motor.
- When the balloon's collar is opened wide enough, carefully insert the motor into the neck of the balloon, bottom end first, making sure that the motor's shaft is poking out of the collar of the balloon. Also make sure that the motor wires come up from the bottom end, run along the side of the motor, and poke out of the top along with the shaft.
- Be extra careful not to tear or shred the balloon as you insert the motor.
- The shaft, as shown in Figure 3 above, is the cylinder-shaped pole sticking up from the top surface of the motor. As shown in Figure 3, a white sprocket comes attached to the shaft. The shaft rotates when the motor is connected to power or a battery.
- The neck of the balloon should fit tightly around the motor but the motor should be completely inside of the balloon. See Figure 4 below.
Figure 4. Insert the motor completely inside the neck of the balloon with the wires coming out on the side. |
- Now you will need to glue the neck of the balloon down to the top surface of the motor to make a watertight seal. You must keep the shaft of the motor clear, above the part of the balloon you will glue down to the top surface.
- Using the scissors, snip off the excess neck of the balloon. Be careful when you do this. If you cut off too much, you may not have enough balloon to completely cover the surface of the motor. If you do not cut off enough, the balloon will bunch up around the shaft, getting in the way of its movement. You might have to cut more than once to get the right amount of balloon to meet up at the base of the shaft. You might also have to glue some of the balloon edges on top of each other.
- Put on the disposable gloves. (The gloves prevent the glue from getting on your fingers.) Use small drops of Gorilla super glue and glue down the edges of the balloon to the motor. Follow the instructions on the glue package to make sure that the glue hardens and cures. See Figure 5 below for an example. Be sure not to get any glue on the motor's shaft.
- Wrap some of the excess balloon around the wires and use silicone adhesive to adhere the edges of the balloon around the wires. You can also use a little bit of the silicone adhesive around the edges of the balloon to ensure a watertight seal.
Figure 5. Glue the edges of the balloon carefully to the motor surface to make a watertight seal. |
- Once the glue has dried, gather the extra balloon down around the bottom of the motor. Then tie the rest of the balloon with a rubber band as shown in Figure 6 below.
Figure 6. Tie up the rest of the balloon with a rubber band to keep it out of the way. |
Making the Connections to the Motor
- The motor runs on electricity and must be connected to a battery in order to work.
- Connect the motor's wires coming out of the balloon to a 9 V battery.
- Because the robot will be going into deep water and the battery needs to be kept out of the water, you will need to use two long pieces of electrical wire, one black and one red, to connect the motor to the battery. The length of the wires depends on where you are testing the robot. If you are testing the robot in a container, the length of the wires should each be about 1 to 1.5 meters (m) long. If you are testing the robot in a pool, the length of the wires should each be about 2 to 3 m long.
- Use the wire stripper to cut two pieces of electrical wire, equivalent in length, one black and one red.
- Use the wire stripper to strip off 1 centimeter (cm) of plastic from both ends of each wire.
- Strip off 1 cm of the plastic insulation from both ends of the motor's wires with the wire stripper.
- Twist together the end of the black wire from the motor to one end of the black length of wire and tape them together with a piece of electrical tape. Repeat with the red wire from the motor and the length of red electrical wire.
Optional: If an adult helper has experience soldering you can ask them to solder the connections, as shown in Figure 7 below, rather than twisting and taping the wires. Cover the soldered area with electrical tape to make it waterproof. Soldering will make the connection permanent and more stable. The unsoldered connections (those twisted and taped) are less stable and may need to be checked and fiddled with if the robot is not working.
- Test the connections between the motor and battery.
- Attach the battery clip to the 9V battery.
- Connect and twist together the bare metal end of the black wire from the motor to the end of the battery clip's black wire. Repeat with the red wires. When the red wire is connected, the motor should turn on and the shaft spin. If the motor does not turn on, this may mean that the connections to the motor may not be stable and you will have to redo them.
- Once you are sure that the motor spins properly, disconnect the motor from the battery clip.
Figure 7. Optional soldered connection between the motor's wires and two lengths of electrical wire. |
Attaching the Propeller to the Motor
- Gently pull the wires from the motor down and against the motor. Use a rubber band to hold the wires against the motor. This will keep the wires from getting in the way of the propeller.
- Slip the propeller on the shaft of the motor. If the opening is too small, you may have to make the opening a bit larger with a drill or other tool.
- Mix the Elmer's epoxy according to the directions on the package, using a paper plate and disposable spoon. Carefully apply a small amount of the mixed epoxy to the propeller opening, then attach the propeller to the motor's shaft.
- Allow the epoxy to harden for 24 hours and cure completely. Once the epoxy has hardened, the underwater robot is ready to be built.
Building the Underwater Robot
- Attach the two film canisters to the longest edge of the clothes hanger with a few strips of duct tape, as shown in Figure 8 below. The film canisters act as floats to keep the robot buoyant.
Figure 8. Tape the film canisters to the longest edge of the clothes hanger. |
- Twist the wires to the motor together to make one cable. Twisting the wires will enable the robot to sink more easily and not get entangled in the hanger or the motor.
- Attach the waterproofed motor to the hook of the clothes hanger, as shown in Figure 9 below, with duct tape. The duct tape should not get in the way of the propeller's movement. Make sure to rotate the propeller to ensure that it does not hit the hanger. If the propeller hits the hanger, then undo the tape and reposition the motor.
Figure 9. Completed underwater robot. |
- You may need to attach one or two nails to the hook of the hanger to act as ballast. Ballast acts as weight and allows the robot to sink. You will have to experiment with the nails to find out if ballast is required.
Testing the Underwater Robot
- If you are using a large container to test your robot, fill your container to the top with water. If you are using a pool or other body of freshwater, skip to step 2.
- Place the robot in the water, with the hook of the clothes hanger first. Make sure to keep the battery out of the water. See Figure 10 below.
- The hanger should float just under the surface of the water. Add a nail to the hook of the hanger to help weigh it down if it does not float just under the surface of the water.
Figure 10. Testing the underwater robot. This robot models an ROV robot, because power is being supplied via a cable out of the water. |
- When the robot is floating, connect the robot to the battery. Connect the red wire from the motor to the red wire from the battery clip and the black wire from the motor to the black wire from the battery clip. Make sure that the bare ends of the wires touch. Does the robot move down? How fast does it move? What happens when the robot is disconnected from the battery? Does it move back up slowly or quickly?
- Safety tip: Keep your fingers away from the spinning propeller to prevent injury.

- Add two more motors to the hanger and have the robot move forward and backward, and then turn, in addition to moving up and down. Do you need to add more ballast or floats? What issues do you have to consider in order to make this possible? Once you add more motors, use a double-pole, double-throw switch (also called a knife switch) to easily reverse the direction of the motor. Figure 11 below shows how to wire a double-pole, double-throw switch to the battery and the motor.
Figure 11. This double-pole, double-throw switch is wired so that with every throw, the direction of the motor is reversed. |
- Add tools to the robot that enable it to pick up items from the floor of the test container. For example, you could tie strings with magnets to the hanger to pick up metal objects or an electromagnet so that you can pick up and drop things. You will have to figure out if you need to add floats to the hanger to enable the robot to move upward.
- Research robots frequently carry an on-board camera. Cameras let scientists on land monitor what is going on underwater. Can you attach a video camera to your underwater robot? What additional problems will you have to solve for the video camera to work?

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Twenty-year-old Ariana Grande-Butera, known professionally as Ariana Grande, is an American actress, singer, and songwriter. She played Cat Valentine on the Nickelodian sitcom Victorious and and is reprising her role on the crossover spinoff/sequel Sam & Cat. Grande reached mainstream success after her single "The Way" from her debut studio album "Yours Truly" became a top-ten hit on the Billboard Hot 100.
Miss Grande graces the cover of Complex magazine's December 2013/January 2014 issue. In her interview with Joe La Puma, it is revealed that "Ariana Grande has a pretty face and a golden voice, but the chart-topping sitcom star has a dark side, too." Ariana describes her unusual encounters with the supernatural.
She says, "…Then I opened my eyes and got back on the phone and was like, 'I'm really scared and I don't want to go to bed tonight.' And then I scooched over to the left side of my bed, because that's where the best service is in my room, and there was this massive black matter.
"It was like a cloud of something black right next to me. I started crying. I was on the phone like, 'What do I do, what do I do?' and they said, 'Tell it to eff off.' I thought, I'm not going to do that. It's going to upset it, so I'm just going to chill and not feed into it because all it wants is fear. It feeds on fear. I watched it move to the front of my bed and then I fell asleep on the phone. I woke up and it was gone."
On November 5th, 2013, the Huffington Post published "Ariana Grande's 'Demon' Experience Revealed In Complex Cover Story." The comments by the readers discussing the article were, for the most part, quite nasty and disrespectful.
On the heels of the Huffington Post release, the Phantoms and Monsters: Pulse of the Paranormal blog announced "Ariana Grande's 'Demon' Experience (actually 'sleep paralysis') Revealed." And lastly and sadly, probably least, The Anomalist concurs with, "What Grande calls a 'demon encounter' is what we would call 'sleep paralysis'."
Ariana could move and freely speak during her encounter with the "cloud of something black" appearing and moving right next to her bed. This was definitely NOT sleep paralysis! The icing on the cake was that she fell asleep during this moment of pure terror. In many encounters of this type, the primary witness is compelled to sleep. This is "The Knockout." Here we have a textbook example of an encounter with a nonhuman anomaly.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

Fleming's Steakhouse - Denver
Online Reservations
We attended this Flemings on July 26 and July 31 during out stay in Denver. The waitress for the July 26 visit was Excellent, very attentive and even gave me a birthday gift (chocolate truffles) on our way out. The food was also really good. I've been to Flemings in many different towns - Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Denver, Salt Lake City, El Segundo, etc. The food is consistently good.
We were celebrating our teenage daughter's return from a 16 day mission trip and she wanted steak. So, of course, we took her to Flemings. Steaks were cooked to perfection. Parmesan mashed potatoes were smooth and tasty. Everything was wonderful. The server even surprised her with a "Welcome Home" gift --- a box of truffles. Our daughter was VERY pleased. Thanks, Flemings!!
We attended the Denver Flemings on July 26th and July 31st during out stay in Denver. The waitress for the July 26 visit was Excellent, very attentive but the waiter, Chris we had on July 31st wasn't so good. Two of us ordered the same thing and he couldn't tell us which was medium and which was medium well. They both looked the same I can give him that, but he should have known. Very disappointing. The manager, Neal was very personable and came by several times to make sure we were happy. That made all the difference. Kudos to Neal.
food keeps getting better ans ervice was outstanding
This place is great, they really take care of you. Everyone is nice and very attentive. We loved it. James C. you're simply the "BEST'!!!
I love Flemings, it is my absolute favorite restaurant. The steak, Flemings potatoes, and chocolate lava cake were divine. The wine was wonderful and we had a fantastic time!
My first trip to Denver included my first visit to a Flemings. Once again, aged beef is a safe bet! Combine that with the best service I have ever received from our impeccable server, Chris, an impressive wine list, perfectly prepared steaks and sides (a la carte) and it was a luxurious, comfortable, enjoyable and rewarding evening. We each had a wedge salad which was perfect, two fillets, again perfect, the Flemings potatoes and the grilled asparagus and splurged on the order-ahead chocolate delicacy. Each bite was a treat for the senses. I didn't want to leave anything behind! We left completely satisfied, a bit full and with a quite lighter wallet. I was impressed with the diversified wine list which could have made spending less easy
The beef did not seem to be the usual quality we expected. Maybe the Monday Night Special is not up to par with dinner on other evenings. The rest of the meal and cocktails were very good and the service was excellent.
Lovely restaurant for a special occasion or just a nice night out on the town. Great food and beverage. Don't forget to order dessert. Yummy!
Great restaurant . Sunday prime rib special was an excellent value. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Will definitely go back!
Nothing like having steaks come out hot and cooked to perfection.
Everything from the valet service right as we pulled up through the entire evening was done to perfection. Thank you all
If cost is no issue, this is a fabulous restaurant!
The food and service was very good. The homemade truffles both my son and I received for our birthdays " was out of this world." Wish I could have more birthdays if I received them again.
We celebrated our anniversary there and the food was outstanding and the service was out of the park. Rachel was our server and did a great job. Rachel is a great asset to Flemmings.
I met a friend for dinner and the from the valet to the end, the service was amazing. Chris was our waiter and we could not have asked for a better experience. We will be back. Bev Rouleau
We all had an excellent meal, service and great time. The celebration for our Daughter and New Husband's wedding made it a special evening. The four of us all had a steak that was perfect, three sides and salad wedge. Our server's wine recommendation was enjoyed by all. It will be fun to return for a surprise romantic night out and excellent meal with with my wife.
Had a lovely time enjoying an appetizer dinner in the bar. The fillet flatbread was outstanding.
We had a really nice waiter - Ryan. All of the staff is friendly. The Manager came over twice to see how we were enjoying the food. He was pouring water for the other diners and talking with everyone. The steaks are great. I wish we could eat there weekly. Good wine list. It's our favorite place to go for a special occasion.
Found out that our waitress was from an area near where we used to live in the Midwest. She went out of her way to help us and provided great service. Appreciated that the manager also stopped by our table to chat. One think that we don't like is that we always like to have a drink at the bar before dinner. The Denver location was no different than the location we went to in Lincolnshire, Illinois. There is Never a spot at the bar to have a drink. So many people are eating there that we can never have a cocktail when we arrive. Needless to say, we will often frequent restaurants where there may be more seats at the bar to have a drink or small bar tables to do so also.
As usual, great service and great food. We really like it that they remember us and our drink orders from our last visit.
Filet was awesome and the service was great - not annoying!
I've dined at Flemings a number of times over the years. It never fails to please. Really good food, really good service and very nice surroundings.
I took my husband to Fleming's for his birthday dinner and it was fantastic the food and service was the best .
First dined at Fleming's in Akron, Oh., needed someplace special for anniversary, decided to go to Fleming's in Denver. Simply a great place, top notch food and service. Great exp. from the reservation via Open Table to the valet at the end of the night.
We've been looking for amazing restaurants in Denver for years and never knew Fleming's existed. This one is hidden in the DTC and well worth the hunt. The steaks are amazing and sides are delicious. There are many options on the menu, if you prefer something other than steak. The decor is upscale, elegant yet modern. The staff is friendly, happy, skilled and accommodating. This could be our new favorite!
Fleming's is one of our favorites. Last year we had our rehearsal dinner here and this year we decided to celebrate our anniversary here. The service is always great. Very knowledgeable and helpful in selecting the perfect wine. One of my favorites is the bread and spreads they serve you-delicious! Our steaks came out almost perfectly cooked (perhaps a little more done then we like, but very tender and juicy still). The sides are always very good. We always enjoy our meals here, have for many years, and will continue to come back!
From the time we entered Flemings, until we left, service was absolutely fantastic. Way to go!!
Flemings does an exceptional job of staff training. The valet remembers you; the reservations people are smiling and engaging you as soon as you enter the building; and the wait staff is prompt, friendly, knowledgeable, and efficient. The menu, newly reworked, has gems of somewhat adventurous eating without being too over the top; the food is served hot and beautifully cooked. Overall all a really good experience.
We had a great meal! The steak was excellent! The service we received from Chris Shearn was the best we have ever had! It was a great night!
This was a beautiful dining experience without all the hype! Every aspect was top notch. I will definitely return.
Food, service and wine were all superb! I will return!!!
That was one of the best steaks I have ever had and I have had alot. My fillet was perfectly medium rare, it cut like betta and melted in my mouth. The seasoning was perfect! I will confess, I am not a bread eater at restaurants, trying to be good but Flemmings tempted me with an interesting butter variety ( dried tomato butter and a feta butter) I had to try them, then I could not stop they were so good, gotta try it. The service was fantastik, the team was very attentive and helpful.
The staff was outstanding! The food was delicious. The steaks were served hot and to our specifications. Looking forward to coming back soon.
Love this restaurant. Consistently great food and service. Easy to get a table. Great for a nice night out. Fantastic wine selection.
Nathan took exceptional care of us. The pork chop was a little tough, a bit of a disappointment. Probably overcooked. All else was excellent as always
Very, very nice. Steaks and the lobster were fantastic
My husband and I really enjoy our meals at Fleming's every time we dine there. We typically leave with a doggy bag. All of the wait staff is friendly, attentive and eager to answer any questions or handle special requests. The manager greets everyone at the tables. Our steaks were both well prepared. We always ask for the 50-50 side dish (half french fries/half onion rings). It''s a huge serving. Any of the vegetables are a good choice. We prefer the sauteed mushrooms with garlic. Great place for a special occasion. WIsh we could afford to eat at Fleming's once a week!
Great restaurant. Great food. Higher priced than local competitors.
We went on our Anniversary Dinner Date to Flemmings and were impressed from the outset. It has a downtown high-end steak house feel right in the middle of the DTC. We were impressed with the service from the vallet who warmed our car before we came out to the hosts that gave us the great tip on happy hour drinks at the bar. Our experience was made complete by our most wonderful server who was patient with us, answered all of our many questions and assured we had an amazing celebration. On a side note their wine-app on a the table iPad was a fun way to select wine!
One of my favorite steak house. Food are always excellent and wonderful service!
We love the food. The filets are always great and cooked they way we like them. It's close and easy to get to. They usually have really good wine selections and not priced "too over the top". Another good thing, is that when we make reservations, I don't think we have ever been seated late or more than a couple of minutes. There is another restaurant that we go to occasionally, and we make our reservation time based on the fact that we will be seated close to 30 minutes later.
Definitely a place you can count on. Great meal, great service! Our go to place for special occasions!
We love Flemings! We always have fabulous service and excellent food! We highly recommend Flemings to all our friends!
I took my husband there for his bday- our normal choice is Morton's in Chicago, but decided to change it up here in CO. The ladies at the front desk gave us the worst freezing booth by the front door, but the cold temperature was worth it once our server came. His name was Rick- he was polite and knowledgeable about the large wine list. We enjoyed the cold seafood plate for an appetizer- it was delicious! Our steaks were cooked to perfection and Rick had perfect service. Next time we dine there I will request Rick and a better booth.
What a great find! The ambiance, the wait staff, and the cuisine received 5 stars from me. First time diner at Flemings and will return again and again. Was perfect for a Friday night romantic dinner. Best waitstaff, manager, and chef!
We decided to try Flemings so we wouldn't have to drive downtown. If you've got the cash and want to flaunt it for a date, then this is your spot. The food was way above average (not the best I've had) and the service was excellent. However I can think of a couple other restaurants that have the same level of service with equal quality food (in one case a little better) that would've been much less on the wallet. Next time I'll drive the extra 15-20 minutes to save $100 on our meal and go to the Chophouse.
Get what you pay for on a special occasion.... Super attentive service.... best steak ever.... complete 5star dining experience. Will be returning for happy hours after work, when not quite so expensive.
We took our kids to Flemings to help celebrate my husband's birthday. The kids felt really special because they had to dress up and got to order steak. We started off with the seafood tower for 4 and it was amazing! There must have been 8 -10 colossal fresh shrimp, 15-20 crab claws and two lobster tails that were already cut and presented on top of the lobster. The sauces that came with the seafood was so tasty! We had the beet salads, bread with great cheese spreads and that were very flavorful. I had a filet mignon that was cooked to perfection and was sooooo tender, my husband had the bone-in rib eye and it was huge. The flavor of the meat is so tasty. My son had a filet mignon and French fries that was on the kids' menu.
Great meal & service with friends. Wine list is amazing!!

After 3 days of bad weather and even worse fishing I finally have something to report! Went Kayaking in Boca Grande Thursday morning and I could'nt keep the snook off my topwater plug(skitterwalk). Ended up going 3/10 on some small snook that really put on a show for me as they tried to slam my topwater. All fish were caught on the rising tide in less than 3 feet of water. In the afternoon I fished with my dad, brother, Louis, and Capt. Mark Liberman aboard Mark's boat "Teal" for the Boca Grande Guides Association Tournament. We had a blast hooking Tarpon in the midst of the fleet at big pass, landing 2 out of 5 to keep us in the running for most releases. Hopefully Day 2 of fishing will yield a big, winning fish for us this afternoon! The crabs were running pretty good on the outgoing tide and the tarpon were eating just about anything we put down. Check out the videos at this link :
Link is bad and leads to Online Pills site.
Here are some photos of us from last year's tournament aboard the same boat:

Poem Concerning the Departure of the Magi
This 15th-century manuscript, in Renaissance script, contains a poetic composition (De profectione Magorum adorare Christum et de innocentibus interfectis ab Herode) by a "Gabriel Volaterranus." The author was in all likelihood Gabriello Zacchi da Volterra, the archpriest (acting dean, vicar to the bishop) of the cathedral, who was from a culturally sophisticated background and died in 1467 at the age of 33. The author dedicates the work to Tommaso del Testa Piccolomini, the secret assistant of Pope Pius II (folio 132r), to whom Pius had granted the privilege of kinship ...
Bucolics, Georgics, and the Aeneid
This 15th-century manuscript, known as the Riccardiana Virgil, includes the texts of the three extant works of the great Roman poet Virgil, the Bucolics, the Georgics, and the Aeneid, and contains 88 miniature paintings in the lower margin of many of the vellum leaves. The miniatures, 86 in the Aeneid and one each in the Bucolics and the Georgics, are attributed to Florentine artist Apollonio di Giovanni and his workshop. Those illustrating the story of Aeneas reflect the influence of Benozzo Gozzoli, who in 1459 completed a suite of frescos ...

Can't find it in stock anywhere! Can I get an ETA?
I will find out for you asap. I know there were some new flavors being introduced, so maybe they're coming sooner than I thought
thanks I'm running low...
BUMP been a few days.
I've been out for a while and nutra has been out of stock for some time now.
It is actually back in stock, and should be back in most vendors very shortly, so keep an eye out
not at the planet... hoping it shows up with some new flavors too!
Have you tried rpg now that it has been re-stocked? I just opened a new tub today and it dosent taste the same. Wonder if they changed something..
I wish i knew that before i bought it. I would have stuck with n gage. Why do companies change the formula? What a shame...

I agree it seems like something changed in the formula. The previous one was definitely better, but the new one is still great I find
The flavor has indeed been completely redone, with the aim of a more natural flavor.
I've posted this before but I absolutely love the new flavor of Bubba Punch and I've used a ****load of RPG...the Watermelon kicks ass as well.
There's new flavors? Oh crap, time to order some goodies..
What are everyone's favorite? Bubba Punch was the most amazing flavor I've ever had, out of any product.

While we harbor no disrespect for the Wall Street Journal who called us "that scrappy little paper from Southeast Texas," we prefer to think of ourselves as simple seekers of the truth. We're of the opinion that headlines and sound bites never tell the whole story. Our readers demand all the facts, facets and flavors of every story or event. And, they expect to be informed, educated and stirred to action.

These type of Dr's are the future of medicine who are not just putting band aide effects on the problem, but dealing with imbalances directly. This new generation of Dr's are looking at the one thing, but rather the interaction between all system to get the best outcome for their patient. If HRT is needed then it is available.

Behind the 'Flame' malware spying on Mideast computers (FAQ)
The Flame worm that has targeted computers in the Middle East is being called "the most sophisticated cyberweapon yet unleashed" by Kaspersky Lab researchers who discovered it. Lurking on computers for at least five years, the malware has the ability to steal data, eavesdrop on conversations, and take screen captures of instant message exchanges, making it dangerous to any victim. But a possible link to malware found on computers in Iran's oil sector has experts saying it's got to be the work of a nation-state.
CNET talked with Roel Schouwenberg, senior researcher at Kaspersky, the company … Read more

Brand Group | Publisher | Issues | Year Began | Year Ended | Notes |
Atlas [black & white] | Marvel | 1677 | 1951 | 1957 | Black and white globe, usually with longitude and latitude lines, with a banner across it reading "Atlas" in black letters. See also a color version used in 1944. According to an article in Alter Ego (vol. 3) #49 by Tom Lammers, Atlas was intended as a publisher's brand, not as a distribution mark. The Atlas logo was first used on November 1951 issues, but Kable News Co. continued to distribute the issues through the August 1952 issues, and it's "K" logo and the logo of the independent distributors' union continued to appear along side the Atlas globe. The Atlas globe also remained in use through the September 1957 issues, plus one of the two issues cover-dated October 1957, while A.N.C. had taken over distribution as of November, 1956. No indication of A.N.C.'s distribution appeared on the cover while the Atlas globe remained. Additionally, interior pages encouraged readers to "look for the Atlas seal on the cover!" |

Book – "Illinois Law in the School Office: The Essential Desk Reference"
by Brian D. Schwartz and Scott L. Day (2012)
Publisher: Illinois Principals Association
Available online.
Book Description
Working in a school is both rewarding and tough. School secretaries, nurses, aides, receptionists, custodians, bus drivers, and a host of others assure that our schools are run efficiently and that children are the top priority.
These talented individuals answer questions from parents, manage student medication, fix whatever needs to be fixed, assure that student records are accurately maintained, assist teachers with a variety of needs, coordinate school safety drills, enroll and withdraw students, assist with special education issues, handle school finances, transport students to and from school and school activities and do whatever else is needed.
This book is an effort to make the life of these busy individuals a little more manageable. In doing so, the authors have consulted with a number of school support professionals about the areas of law and policy that they deal with on a routine basis. From there, they organized this book into ten chapters. Each chapter contains detailed narratives on relevant issues, frequently asked questions and commonly used forms and resources. As such, Illinois Law in the School Office is intended to be a one-stop, essential desk reference for busy school support professionals.
The authors have ample experience working with school support staff and school leaders. Brian D. Schwartz has practiced school law for 15 years and is associate director of and general counsel to the Illinois Principals Association. Scott L. Day is a former middle school and junior high administrator and is chair of the department of educational leadership at the University of Illinois Springfield.

What concealer should I be using to cover up the dark circles underneath my eyes?
You need to first find the right concealer for your skin type. A concealer that is too thick will cake up and settle into fine lines, and one that is too thin won't provide enough coverage. I like stick concealers that have a creamy consistency because they allow you to get good coverage without crepe-y lines. Apply it straight from the tube, then stipple it in with either a concealer brush or your ring finger (which has the lightest touch) to blend.
