Yorkville LS801P Powered Subwoofer (Formerly LS800P)
Product Description for the Yorkville LS801P Powered Subwoofer (Formerly LS800P)
First choice in active subwoofers, the LS801P combines a cast-frame, neodymium-based 18-inch bass driver with a rear-loaded bass horn enclosure made from 15mm birch ply covered in rugged black carpeting (black Ultrathane painted version - LS801PB is also available). Now add 1,500 continuous Watts of onboard power featuring full-time "invisible" limiting. Result - a rugged, high-powered "earth mover." Balanced XLR inputs are included along with 1/4-inch TRS inputs which, at the push of a button, can handle either line-level or speaker-level signals (you can simply connect it to any full-range speaker for quick and easy setups). Connections also include both XLRM and 1/4" Output Link jacks for interconnecting up to 10 LS801P's in larger concert systems. An additional XLR 'Mono Blend Input' allows the LS801P to function in a stereo system by blending the balanced L & R signals from a stereo mixer and creating a single in-phase mono signal.
The control panel features a +/- 12dB Level pot for matching the LS801P's output with the rest of the system, a tunable 90 to 150Hz HF Roll off pot to let you match the LS801P to any full-range enclosure without an electronic crossover, a unique Shape control that modifies the bass response, a Line/Speaker Input Level button and LED's to indicate Power, Limit and Clip.
Hardware includes four steel inset handles, a steel top-mounted pole-stand adapter, a heavy-gauge curved steel grill and tilt-back wheels.

Great Sub.
Review by The Silver Boombox Thief -
Handles are set in right spot making it easy for a speaker of this weight to be lifted, (by 2 people) and put in my truck.
Great service from the Pro Audio crew. Anything I buy online is through these guys. (Posted on 3/20/12)

Framed Burlap Monogram
It's been a busy, busy week.
I finish up my first two OT classes tomorrow.
That's kind of exciting :)
So in my little bits of spare time, I'm trying to redo little man's room.
Just tweaking here and there.
I had a boring old framed football picture of some sort that didn't belong... so I grabbed the frame with the already matted picture, some scrapbook paper, an "R" monogram from Hobby Lobby and some burlap (of course!)
Here's my R:
All boring.
And it has been moved and stuck everywhere for so long that it cracked in the middle... I'm pretty sure it actually broke in half. lol.
I nearly threw it out.
But I grabbed a piece of burlap and stuck the letter on it.
Then just cut and hot glued until it was covered.
I tied a piece of jute around the middle...it helped give it more support and was just cute :)
I took my frame and just literally covered up the football picture. It had a while matte around it and the 12x12 red cardstock covered perfectly. They're just taped on there so they can come off if I get bored with the color.
The R I just hotglued to the outside of the frame.
I think it turned out CUTE
Easy easy redo.
Ryan loves having his R around. He knows it and "O"s.
Wanna see his newest obsession?
See those bands around all of our heads?
We read this book call "I love you forever" and the little boy is running in one of the pictures with a sweatband around his forhead.
Little man thought that was just too funny.
He took my stretchy headbands and calls them his 'running things'.

This is not a conservative vs. liberal debate although conservatives get marked down for accepting the science so late in the game.
After years of denying global warming, physicist Richard Muller now says "global warming is real and humans are almost entirely the cause." The admission by Muller, a professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley, and founder of the Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature project, has gained additional attention because some of his research has been funded by Charles Koch of the Koch brothers, the right-wing billionaire known for funding climate skeptic groups like the Heartland Institute. "We could make the scientific case more solidly than had been made in the past," Muller claims. "I think this does say we do need to take action, we do need to do something about it."

It was actually worse than that. Tannehill threw for only 186 yards with 56 of them coming on a last-second desperation drive against a prevent-defense that was mostly interested in letting the clock run out. That series of downs ended in a field goal, as did most of Miami's scoring drives.
Off target
The frustrating thing is the Dolphins should have had two and perhaps three touchdowns if Tannehill had been on target.
He missed an open Hartline by five yards down the middle of the field in the first quarter. It happened again in the second half when Hartline was again behind the New England defense and actually had to turn and wait to catch a pass as he would a punt.
Two certain touchdowns erased.
One pass overthrown.
Another pass underthrown.
"You've got to hit those," Tannehill said of his first throw. "You don't get too many shots like that. He runs by the safety, and I've got to hit him and make the play. The second one was designed to be a hook up, so I looked off the safety and set my feet to throw short. He stuck his hand up and went deep.
"I just didn't get enough on it."
The trouble is Tannehill was wild high or behind or short or long on a handful of other throws. And this was not the right day to have accuracy problems.
"It's tough, it's tough because we're a team right now that can't miss those kind of plays," center Mike Pouncey said. "We have a low margin of error."
That's the truth with these Dolphins and no amount of coaching is really going to fix that. The Dolphins will have to wait until the draft and free agency to correct those issues.
This team needs more help at wide receiver. This team needs tight end play that makes a difference. This team needs to use Bush more and Thomas less or — a better idea given the future is the highest priority — turn Lamar Miller loose and see what he's got.
Because one touchdown isn't going to beat too many teams. It certainly won't beat the Patriots.

Cute and form-fitting

I absolutely love this shirt. I got it in purple and pink (the pink is my favorite). It's a good price, and the quality seems good. Very form-fitting, so if you're looking for something more forgiving in the stomach this is not it, but other than that great buy. I want even more colors now!

Midland-based company lost money in the 4th quarter
MIDLAND -- Dow Chemical reports it lost money in the last quarter of 2012.
It says it's as a result of markets deteriorating across the world.
"The second half of 2012 saw significant deterioration in the markets we serve, particularly in China," Andrew N. Liveris, chairman and chief executive officer of Dow Chemical, said in a prepared statement. "In response, Dow identified and took aggressive action to mitigate the effects of a slow-to-no-growth global environment — by deploying cost and cash flow levers and by continuing to prudently manage our portfolio and prioritize growth investments."
In October 2012, Dow slashed 24 hundred jobs.
It also closed 20 plants

-- some big news in the -- world today as trading firm get guys agreed to buy Knight capital for one point four billion dollars.
So are there more big deals to come in the new year will and -- activity just can't stay quiet on silence.
Joining us now -- Democrat vice chair transaction advisory services for Ernst and young America's.
Reits you know I thought that everyone has all this cash on there.
Balance sheet and they're saying wants this deal is done we are -- to the races we're gonna go buy stuff.
Well Tracy they want to there's clearly a large pent up demand.
But they're cautious right now the fiscal cliff that instability in Europe with the eurozone slowing GDP growth around the world they're sitting back and waiting it out.
And until you have I think serious resolutions of the cliff.
Further signs that the Arizona stabilize.
I don't think you're gonna see much of a move those two things happen all that's dropping its Iran.
As vice chair of the transaction advisory services group got presume these survey your -- -- you've talked to them and this is what they're saying their stance on their hands.
It I'm out visiting with -- -- exacts and private equity investors all the time in their cautious and until they see some signs of stability in the market.
They're gonna hold backs I think you're gonna see.
Year 2013 much like 2012.
Smaller deals about the same kind of -- by the way they're down double digits again this year.
-- deals meaning below 500 million.
For the most part of its strategic nothing to strategic product fills may -- some geographic place still looking at emerging markets actively.
But I don't think you'll see too many big Blockbuster transformational you -- action private equity -- be the bright spotlight.
Well I think private equity has the enough flexibility to operate outside the public scrutiny say don't have to live quarter to quarter -- -- have to worry about the short term accountability.
And they can take a longer term bet on some -- -- acquisitions.
It's -- about some of the sectors that you think might actually see some activity.
We've been hearing about startups I guess so these can be life science start -- we're talking about here.
I think you'll see some activity in life science else to think you'll see in financial services maybe a little bit consumer products and consumer products they're still a great interest in the emerging markets is that.
Middle class emerges -- we're expected to add three billion people of the middle class the next twenty years largely gonna happen emerging markets they want stuff and they want consumer stuff financial services.
They will continue to still -- -- this aggregate because of the Dodd-Frank -- Basel III getting recapitalize so there should be some activity as well.
And look I think health care and life sciences will continue to converge certainly election sort of settled the issue about.
What kind of regulatory regime -- looking at with health care and so I think you'll see activity to capitalize on the when you talk emerging middle class are we talking about more investments and and and like Latin America I think Brazil and China will be great big -- -- because that's for the populations are.
Say you have Brazil China -- investment in us here at home we see more money coming to us and yes in fact we that we -- -- what's exciting about it is the US is now projected based on our our capital conference from Mercer residency and does twice here.
To be the second most popular destination point for.
Inbound foreign capital I think it's happening because we're more stable economy.
We've got population growth.
Currency -- is cheaper and I think the overall sort of strength of our sovereign sort of picture.
I gives investors more confidence interesting that they want to invest in us but we don't want to be shot to invest outside -- is the only way to grow companies either build something you buy something.
And we're not doing that yeah organic its growth is clearly tougher today you do still see US.
Corporates and investors it it and investing in the emerging markets so they're still a lot of interest in China and India and Brazil.
And sort of the brick emerging economies.
Focused on the trends where there's going to be the best economics like the consumer.
Which -- wish I had better news -- dinner.
Ernst and young America's vice air transaction by users think he's thank you thank you ritual is claim and we'll take us through the last -- trading.

Dog Day Afternoon
My favorite dialogue/line:
-"Is there any special country you wanna go to?"
First watched the film 37 years after its theatrical release.
I ate shrimp stuffed chile poblanos. (new recipe) need to improve it.
Outside temperature 12°C/54°F
When I first watch a film I try to not research or "hear about it." I honestly didn't know what was I getting myself into for this one. It was awesome. just awesome. I've always thought that having few locations is an amazing story device because it really shows you time progression and character development. This film does exactly that. Since the beginning of the film you know something is bound to go terribly wrong and you're just praying for all of them to get out of the situation as fast as they should. Frank Pierson (screenwriter) and Sidney Lumet (director) accomplish the excellent first "srike" when (SPOILER ALERT!) the young robber decides to bail on Pacino and Cazale's characters.
In film school you're always told you need a motive. I was very surprised that having so little time and really just two main characters, the motive was always clear. However when the real motive behind the bank robbery is revealed it unleashed a whole new beast.
Pacino, being a method actor (complete emotional identification with his/her character, even when cameras are not rolling) had to be hospitalized after the shoot ended for being emotionally exhausted. His acting is absolutely exhuberating and you feel his non-stop energy throughout the piece. When it came to Oscars he was nominated of course but lost to also great performance by Jack Nicholson in One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest. Same situation for Director Sidney Lumet losing to Milos Forman for One Flew Over the Cukoo's Nest as well.
Again, having one-three locations is a great device that now a days you don't see often. Filmmakers seem to be scared to bored their audience. Personally I believe that if you have a strong story you could tell it in a dark room for all I care ("Buried" with Ryan Reynolds for example) Dog Day Afternoon became an instant classic. Hope to see more!
Outdoor scenes were shot in cold weather conditions. So to prevent "cold breath" to show, actors would put ice in their mouths before each take.
Sidney Lumet's fast way of working made the film to be concluded 3 weeks before schedule.
Other than fake blood, there was no use of make up in the film.
Hope you enjoyed this!

David Spade
They say laughter is the best medicine, so what better to cure a nasty hangover than a 75-minute session with doctor of comedy David Spade.
The comic's set at the Venetian ballroom doesn't actually cure any of the headaches that followed the sleep-deprived, booze-addled night before, but laughing about random stuff — including his visits from legitimate medical doctors – helps numb the post-party pain.
When: Friday, Oct. 18, 2013
Where: The Venetian Resort Hotel Casino, 3355 S. Las Vegas Blvd., Las Vegas
Cost: $65.75 - $175.75

Chinese Steamed Trout with Ginger and Spring Onions
As with salmon, trout is slightly higher in fat, but still very low compared with meat. The fat in both trout and salmon is the good kind we all need to include in our diets. If you're wondering what the pink bits are in the photograph, they're pink spring onions, which looked very pretty the day we took the picture!
Serves 2
Ingredients |
2 whole trout (each weighing about 8 oz/225 g), gutted |
1 inch (2.5 cm) piece of fresh root ginger, peeled and cut into thin strips |
4 spring onions |
1 clove garlic, sliced thinly |
1 level dessertspoon crushed sea salt |
For the sauce: |
1 level teaspoon peeled, grated fresh root ginger |
1 clove garlic, chopped |
3 tablespoons Japanese soy sauce |
3 tablespoons Shaosing (Chinese brown rice wine) |
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil |
½ level teaspoon dark soft brown sugar |

You will also need a steamer. |
This recipe is taken from How to Cook Book Three and The Delia Collection: Fish.
First of all, rinse the trout and dry it with kitchen paper, then sprinkle the outside of the fish with salt and leave aside for half an hour to help firm up the flesh. Meanwhile, place all the sauce ingredients in a small saucepan, then bring them up to simmering point and simmer for 5 minutes.
Next, the spring onions should be cut in half where the green and white parts meet, and the very green part cut in diagonals (making diamond shapes when opened out). The rest should be thinly shredded lengthways.
When you're ready to cook the trout, wipe the salt away with some more kitchen paper and place the fish in the steamer, with the ginger and garlic scattered inside and all over. Place it over boiling water and steam with a lid on for exactly 15 minutes.
Serve the trout with the re-heated sauce poured over and garnished with the spring onions. Plain basmati rice would be a good accompaniment.

Dierks took to Twitter and Facebook to help find his pup, posting, "Praying someone found him. A cold, wet, white dog. Red collar." The search went viral, and Jake was found early this morning (Monday) by a young lady named Anna Belle. Dierks posted, "OMG.

Good morning I'm Doug shown in this week I'll -- Hosting campaign insiders with my.
Colleagues and friends.
Jungle -- -- former congressman from Long Island and pat could you know mr.
can be helpful to those of us here to show extraordinary.
Political consultant commentator.
And if we have time we'll talk about one of his other -- CA's.
As a film writer producer and creator.
The man who is distinguished himself in a number of rounds.
Today we're gonna do what we always do.
Which is get inside the campaigns what we have said from the start -- campaign insiders is no fear no favor.
-- -- What we do is we tell the truth is we know it -- we try to provide insights you can't get.
Anywhere else we're not.
Inside the beltway journalists we are practicing.
Political pros who understand campaigns and their dynamics pat let me start with you.
The race.
According to the latest Fox News poll is 4646.
The numbers have been jumping around a great deal.
What does it mean in what does it.
All of -- for the future well right now I mean you have holes where like in boxes 4646.
Rescues and has -- up point.
Gallup has Obama surging back junior seven -- eight point lead.
-- this this is the season for polls don't matter about where the -- preferences it's a structure.
What we do have dog is.
A situation which covered Colin jump ball.
One of the things that you said yesterday on what we were on television doing -- Sunday show for those of you do see is at 530 yards on 545 actually got a much you have it.
But we should point you made about when asked whether.
-- voters were asked the fox -- whether.
President of brought Obama had a -- on the economy.
61 I think percent said no we didn't.
And in the 50% didn't think Romney did either -- -- this is a jump ball situation.
This election is looking for definition.
The president I think is and we can talk about this.
This it's -- up in the air the next couple months the real battle line I think going on is who will define the election.
Who will win the battle of defining what this is a referendum Obama.
Is this a question about the future so far you've got people who want a discussion about the future -- getting -- Woods was sort of sensing and we got this one of our tweets.
That voters are ambivalent about the candidates and the candidates are ambivalent about talking about the real issues in the future how -- -- -- Wife I see it that way and I I frankly don't understand I I cannot understand how if you want to be president you don't want to talk to the American people.
About what you want to do ask president.
And get them enlisted and behind you it seems to me quite easy actually -- and yet you're gonna get attacked from the other side I think one you can -- you get the forum.
-- the Wall Street Journal -- and a editorial.
On the end of the week.
That I think says it -- -- -- political memo and it and it echoed our peace and -- -- -- called him on the of the electric.
Which -- -- -- -- somebody wants to win they need to promote -- vision.
They're saying -- and they've really made the cases they sit above Romney's if you want to be president he he has to overcome is cautiously to run a campaign.
That is equal to America's current political moment when the White House season show a larger vision and -- pursue it no truer words -- said.
He has got to get out -- -- -- to be cautious campaign that he -- As -- wires in doing this.
Well as I learn from you yesterday as we prepared for Sunday afternoon version of campaign insiders.
He is surrounded by.
Political hacks who just want to attack attack attack.
The on the offensive all the time but he's the candidate he's the guy that's gonna be president he should be thinking -- I've spent my adult life preparing for this moment to become present.
And I want -- go through the campaign.
In a way that will not only win me the election.
But will create a -- presidency and the way to do it seems to -- we did Gregg Jarrett asked us yesterday original answer it.
What's going to be happening this week in the campaign.
I would've answered.
Romney should.
Leave the trail for a week or -- now go back to Boston get his campaign staff supplement the staff with new people.
And sit around for a few days and say to them walk.
What's come up with a positive thing here something.
A tax plan a spending plan at some thing that I can enthusiastically.
And center of the positive part of my campaign around the negative part on Obama is sitting there every day it's called a weak economy.
-- Well done I think to jump on the -- what future reaction do I think to -- needs to lead to danger right now is triggering away.
A minute we're already did to people.
-- -- coming me in June critical months -- this I think you're right John.
He needs to go in and it ended and in meanwhile hopefully they'll be another narrative people get his allies to mount a narrative of Obama which so far they've been unable to do.
And he needs to focus on what is going to be the big message don't you think are absolutely think it needs to be the big message.
You know my first question was really directly responsive to Charleston.
-- -- who wrote in saying and why.
Do the numbers keep jumping around.
Call with registered voters what's going on and my answer to that which is really a follow on to your question pat.
Is they jump around because nobody has any enthusiasm.
Good week for the economy Obama up bad week.
He's down -- that the undecideds.
Jumping around I think what would be particularly useful if we could look I'd like to get.
Your reactions both as professionals.
And as observers of the electoral process for long time to it and we have the candidate.
President Obama -- run taking credit as he should for the raid on.
Osama bin Laden but also.
Attacking Romney for arguably not being as committed or committed at all to that -- -- purpose.
The that's what -- George Bush said it was right the president is the decider in chief nobody can make that decision for you.
Look he knew what would have been cool -- Navy -- on in there and hadn't been in line.
Suppose they've been captured or killed and the downside I would have been horrible form.
-- -- -- What was your reactions of -- Our bodies -- and then -- a loss having lived through the field hostage mission in 1980 is better have one that works the one that doesn't.
But I think that -- over selling this.
And I think it is down one hopefully we'll talk but -- malvo -- policy but I think what this is is he campaigned as saying what are we got from brought on.
And so now we have an anniversary some album will exploit it.
I think there's a danger there.
You know it all you have to do is remember the Georgia -- George.
Won the cold for where -- -- with huge rating -- -- it didn't know it didn't do a darn thing for him come the election which was about the economy.
And what people had to discontented people -- country.
We have a bad to worse economy now and we have a greater discontent than -- face it he's not a substitute for that.
But I think you made a good point and we should reiterated to it today -- -- yesterday.
Renewed campaign insiders on the phone home network.
Which is the missing the miss is that the -- of Romney did.
Body after he was attacked because -- Obama -- not only promoting themselves.
John Q there are they're saying Romney wouldn't.
Do this -- that you neighborhood right.
-- -- say they resurrected a quotation.
Partly out of context.
But it -- Romney five years ago -- -- I wouldn't know and I always tell you all of you can go to the American people I doubt that it's.
-- even as partisan -- times.
I would doubt -- quarter of the American people including hard Democrats believe that no president would not take up and -- they have the opportunity.
But it takes away something else I think you said yesterday.
And I think the opportunity for Romney -- I think Romney -- a huge opportunity.
He and an opportunity was not to wait for days and have Ed Gillespie get on TV and say.
Really terrible that Obama's politicizing this governor Romney should -- I think stood up when -- it came out.
And -- you know I'm so sad by this I applaud the president that this isn't for negative ads.
You know of course I hope I would have made exactly the same decision he didn't and then I think most.
Most would have been -- -- that he and President Clinton would have gotten into.
Something that as -- as Americans we all support right.
And then I think the history of this is true it is in the wasn't that I mentioned is immutable one debates of Ronald Reagan ever lost in his career.
To Walter Mondale.
What -- -- lose it because Mondale who's viewed as an attack dog came out that I wanna thank the president.
For what he's done to unify our country and he restored sense of greatness whatever it just -- from the campaign up.
For that debated -- great about this president.
But you know what it did it -- Mondale looked bigger suddenly on -- national state.
This is exactly what -- could have done.
He would have looked like it presidential and he would have Biden to -- conference -- resolutely -- what's what's -- there I think he should have done that you he should listen DO.
Obama does -- listen you may be -- a blizzard hasn't.
And if he had done that where does that score points not on the right.
But on in the medal in the work better that's right -- look above -- at least we will come back we're getting a number of people writing and we will respond to as many as weekend.
In the next segment but stick with us as you'll see it will only get better as -- -- to the electoral map -- your comments facts.

A Visit To WineStyles in North Spokane
Be careful, surfing at entrepreneur.com can lead to some wild adventures. For Mike and Deedee McMahon, it's just the adventure they were looking for. The McMahon's own and operate several coffee shops in the Spokane area. With the operations of these shops firmly under control, Mike and Deedee were intrigued by the Wine Styles franchise and were eager to dive into something that involved their other passion, wine. As I'm fond of saying, "Wine and coffee equal liquid love."
Wine Styles is an exciting franchise that brings an old world retail wine experience to communities. The franchise costs are relatively low and the look / feel of the store is a unique wine sales concept. Spokane's Wine Style is located in the Indian Trail area, just north of Francis. While the Franchise helps create a consistent look and feel to each store (along with consistent vendor management and point of sale systems), the McMahon's, along with their son J, are given a good amount of freedom to bring in Northwest wine and a good selection of Spokane wine as well.
The Wine Styles store is laid out very nicely and has a large selection of merchandise, accessories and about 220 different wines to choose from. Instead of wines being laid out by region or grape variety, they are laid out by style ranging from crisp, silky, rich, bubbly, fruity, mellow, bold and my favorite, nectar. "When customers come in the store, we can ask them what style of wine they like, and point them in the right direction," says Mike. In addition to some great selection of Northwest wine, including Leonetti and Pepperbridge, you'll find Spokane favorites, Barili, Nodland, and more. Wine Styles also has about 20 wines that are exclusive to the franchise. There is something for everyone at Wine Styles Indian Trail, you can even get a Wine-a-Rita; a combination of various red, and white wines mixed with lemon aid concentrate in a granita machine. I could easily see this becoming a guilty pleasure for many wine snobs.
You'll also notice that Wine Styles is becoming a hub of wine activity as well. Their event calendar is full of wine tastings, beer tastings, art showings, live music, and educational classes. A quick visit to their web site will keep you in the know. Customers can also join their wine club and a very unique text club. The first gets you two bottles of wine, 15% discount on re-orders, 10% off on any wine, invitations and discounts at wine tastings and more for only $34.99 per month. The latter, is a cool text based coupon system that sends coupons and instant savings right to your cell phone.
Follow Wine Styles on Facebook to stay connected to all of their upcoming events. You can even join their text club by texting WineStyles to 50240 for a great introductory savings!
If you live up north and are looking for a great place to experience wine (whether you're a newbie or an expert), Wine Styles on Indian Trail is an excellent space. Stop in during one of their tastings and experience something new.

Spokanes Vino! A Wine Shop
Does your wine shop provide a unique wine of the month club, special membership discount, quality guarantee, unique stock, and weekly tasting and educational events? No? You must be shopping somewhere other than Spokane's Vino! A Wine Shop.
Running away from the bureaucratic world in the 80's John Allen ventured into the wine business joining Lindaman's Café as a wine steward and barista in 1988. The journey to Vino travelled through a failed wine shop (Grape & Grain / Award Winning Wine) and the Four Seasons Café prior to opening in 1995 at their current location 222 S. Washington. For 15 years, John and his staff have been providing quality wine, unique events and a special wine club to wine lovers in the Northwest.
If you're looking for the deal and rock bottom prices, you may not always find it at Vino. If you're looking for a wine shop full of knowledgeable people, quality wine, and good prices, then check out Vino! Customers return year after year because they can trust that each wine on the shelf has been tasted by the Vino staff. If the wine does not meet their tastes, they don't stock it. Sounds like a tough job, tasting all that wine. Vino also brings in a broader range of wine than the typical store. Once a month Vino travels to Seattle to pick up unique wine and special orders. Chances are if you want it, they can get it.
The Wine of the Month Club
One of the unique programs Vino offers is their Wine of the Month club. Nearly 1000 people currently participate. The idea is simple; customers choose a price point (under $15, under $20 and under $30) and they choose red or white wine. Club members have a box in the back room where from 1-6 specially chosen wines are sorted and stored in an air-cooled room. Once a month a newsletter informs members of their new release, including tasting notes from the Vino staff. Wines can be picked up at their convenience. You can count on each of these wines being tasted and approved by the staff and representative of their varietal and region (nothing obscure or odd here).
The simple, straightforward nature of the program keeps people coming back month after month.
The Connoisseur Club
"So, John, can I get a discount on this wine?" With this comment, the Connoisseur Club is born. Similar to a Costco Club membership, members pay $50 per year and receive 15% on all wine they purchase. During Vino's sale periods, Connoisseur members receive 25% off. Wine lovers, high end buyers, and general winos like me really benefit from this type of discount program. Costco Club prices with a trusted staff and taste guarantee!
Events and Classes
Some wine shops can be intimidating. Vino is a welcoming environment where wine types and styles are easy to find. The large selection of nearly 1000 wines all include the staff tasting notes. If you looking for wine events and learning opportunities, there is no shortage at Vino. John and staff host events nearly every Friday and Saturday including wine dinners, tasting classes, winemaker tastings, and more. Check out their events page on the web site, or their Facebook page to stay up to date.
Buy local! Shopping at the grocery store may provide convenience but typically the selection can lack creativity and finding a quality wine can be a gamble. Shopping at a local wine store or a local winery supports our community, keeps more money local and sustains economic growth. I challenge you to buy more wine from a local wine shop, like Vino or directly from the winery!

Last month a small pocket of marshland in Little Egg Harbor, New Jersey, was saved from development. The local online newspaper, the Sandpaper.net, celebrated the preservation of Grassle Marsh -- named for a leading authority on the larvae of surf clams - and its populations of kingfishers and fiddler crabs.
This week, Little Egg Harbor, on the shore of Ocean County, was pulverized by Superstorm Sandy. Homes were turned into debris fields; boats were tossed into the marshes or piled on top of each other.
One quiet ceremony, one catastrophic storm. Both symbolize a national dilemma, as the headlong migration to America's coastlines clashes with rapidly changing climate patterns and more powerful storms.
Ocean County typifies what has happened along the East Coast. In 1970 it had 208,000 inhabitants; in 2010 there were 576,000, according to census data. That made the cost and extent of the damage inflicted by Sandy much greater.
Nationwide, the scale and speed of the rush to the coast has been stunning. According to The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the population of coastal shore-line counties will reach 133 million by 2020, compared to 33 million in 1980.
Much of the development has occurred in coastal communities most vulnerable to hurricanes and tropical storms. According to U.S. Census Bureau data, the coastal populations of states from Virginia to Texas grew 244% between 1950 and 2006.
They are even higher in the summer months with the influx of tourists. One-quarter of all seasonal or second homes are in coastal Florida, and more than 60% of homes and buildings within 500 feet of the shoreline are on the Atlantic and Gulf coasts.
As population density has grown and land values risen, the preservation of natural features has become more difficult. Grassle Marsh was saved thanks to a 1.2 cent tax that the people of Ocean County approved in 1997 to preserve open spaces. It also helped that it adjoined the Jacques Cousteau National Estuarine Research Reserve, a federally funded sanctuary of marshes, barrier islands and bays.
The reserve is a natural sponge -- like the mangrove swamps in the Gulf of Mexico -- for absorbing storm and tidal surges. And officials with NOAA, which runs the reserve, say it coped well with Sandy's onslaught, despite a storm surge of 6 feet.
But such havens are a rarity on the Northeast Coast, and there are only 28 estuarine reserves across the country.
Coastal development projects, meanwhile, continue apace. Just last week, a $100 million resort development was announced for Kingsland, a few miles from the coast on the Georgia-Florida border. The site, adjacent to an estuary, will occupy 575 acres and include a hotel, conference center, water adventure park and movie complex. It also may create as many as 800 jobs.
The importance of tourism to employment and the tax base of many coastal communities makes for fierce arguments pitching the science of sea-level rise against development. North Carolina's senate recently voted to ban the state from using projections from its own science panel on sea-level, which forecast a rise of 39 inches by 2100, in development decisions. Instead it approved a much lower calculation of 8 inches. The vote, advocated by 20 coastal counties, was subsequently overturned.
The searing experience of Sandy, following Katrina, Irene and other major storms in recent years, will likely raise more questions about the wisdom and scope of coastal migration and development, especially as many climate scientists expect the intensity and size of storms to increase, and their geographic reach to extend northward.
The construction of roads and buildings has encroached on coastal forests and wetlands. Half of America's coastal wetlands have been lost, the majority over the last 50 years, according to a federal advisory committee that reported in 2009.
On the Atlantic Coast, the average erosion rate is 2 to 3 feet a year; in the Gulf of Mexico, 6 feet. The forecast rise in sea level, water temperature and acidity is likely to damage more coastal habitats. The U.S. East Coast is made more vulnerable by the fact that the coastline is gradually sinking.
But is there any way to mitigate the effects of development?
Forty years ago, Congress passed a law called the Coastal Zone Management Act. It empowered NOAA to preserve and where possible restore the natural features of the U.S. coastline. The Jacques Cousteau Reserve in Ocean County, New Jersey, was one of the areas funded by the act.
The program has spent about $1 billion of federal money to acquire and run these reserves, but that's a sum dwarfed by the damage inflicted in just four hours this week. According to a 2010 report by the Congressional Research Service, some two-dozen initiatives in Congress to increase funding for the program have been rejected.
States have begun introducing laws that require setbacks for construction to take account of erosion. They also have been establishing commissions on climate change to advise on building regulations and zoning. NOAA has joined with local communities to explore the impact of development, using the estuary reserves as educational tools.
But a federal advisory committee that reported in 2010 warned: "It is clear that there are limits to how much adaptation can achieve ... in the future, adaptations will be particularly challenging because society won't be adapting to a new steady state but rather to a rapidly moving target."
Chesapeake Bay might be described as ground zero of this phenomenon. It has lost 500 islands in three centuries, at least a dozen of them inhabited, as the coastline has sunk and the sea level risen. Two years ago, the last house on what had been Holland Island crumpled and slipped beneath the waves. A century ago the island had nearly 400 residents.
Scientists from the University of Maryland in 2008 said that during the 21st century carbon dioxide concentrations in the bay could increase by between 50% and 160%; sea-level could rise between 0.7 and 1.6 meters, and water temperature by 2 to 6 degrees Celsius.
They stressed that we are in uncharted territory and much will depend on the level of CO2 emissions -- and the future of development. But the Bay's delicate ecosystem will undoubtedly be affected, with its vital eelgrass at risk and cold-water species vanishing. Some are already observed to be retreating north.
Rather than the health of eelgrass, it's likely that hard cash and cold fear will influence human behavior.
As coastal communities have become more crowded, so the cost inflicted by hurricanes, storms and storm surges has risen exponentially. The 1926 hurricane that hit Miami caused about $76 million in damage at today's prices. In 1995, Hurricane Andrew, which was no bigger, inflicted $17 billion in damage, according to figures from NOAA.

Right now I am reading all of the Jane Austen books, I've never read any of them before and since they are classic novels I thought: Now is the time to read them all.
I'm starting with Emma just because I loved the movie 'Clueless' which was based off this novel.
While reading the book it became clear that eating healthy wholesome food was just as much a concern to people then as it is now.
In chapter 3 Mr. Woodhouse is hosting a dinner with friends at his house, he's being very generous and offering all of his food to people. He makes mention to certain people of certain items he thinks they will particularly enjoy. Austen then has him say that he is trying to offer them everything and would love to keep offering them food and drink but fears for their health, so he decides not to offer them too much. While offering the food though he says one thing that got me thinking:
"You need not be afraid of unwholesome preserves here"
Is this Jane Austen cautioning us about unwholesome preserved foods through the words of Mr. Woodhouse?
I know kitchens back then weren't what they are now, but still their preservatives could not be as bad as the chemical laced preservatives that are on our food on. When was this book written anyways?!
Turns out this book was written in 1814 and published in 1815- this is the Georgian Era. I decided to do more research into the food, eating habits and preservatives methods of the Georgian era.
It seems at this time agriculture was just becoming more popular, people were starting to grow their own food if they had large estates. Not only that, but there was no such thing as a fridge so preserving was something that a lot of people were doing.
Ice houses were becoming popular. These were outdoor structures in the gardens of large houses that were packed with ice. They provided a basic means of refrigeration. But more popular was preserving your food by methods like marinading, slating, smoking, potting and pickling. Another method method of preserving meat that became popular and would ad to your waist line was sugaring your meat.
For all but the very poor, meals were better and more wholesome than they had been in Stuart times, but more people could now afford sugar because of the slavery involved in making it, it was widely spread and cheap. Sugar became one of the most important imports, it was used for cooking but also for preserving meat as mentioned before. Potted meat preserved in sugar was among the most popular dishes.
Despite the smaller portions a lot of wealthy people of the Gerogian era found it difficult to keep their weight down.
Can you believe that preservatives and excess sugar have been a concern for people this long? 1814….. just think about how long it's been that people like you, me, Tosca Reno and apparently Jane Austen have been trying to spread the word. I mean it's never too late so we should all keep trying, and Austen's warning will live on forever in her book, but I just found that shocking.

Symphony Brownies - Brought Back
Today I am grateful. I'm just grateful.
My children are healthy and they are really great kids...though I may be a little biased.
My husband and I are healthy. We are happy.
We have a safe and comfy home.
I have nice friends and a loving family.
My children have wonderful teachers.
I'm just taking a moment away from a bout of worry and heartbreak. Having a child with ADHD has brought many interesting challenges into our lives. Some of those challenges are fairly easy to overcome, some of them are a little more difficult to walk through with my baby. This too shall pass. I believe that.
So, today I am grateful. I have a smile on my face and happiness in my heart because I have so much to be grateful for.
I find a certain amount of comfort in baking. I'm sure I've mentioned that before. So, this week, I've been baking. This is a brownie recipe that I LOVE, and have posted about before. It's easy and it yields a super fudgey brownie with a little milk chocolate and toffee goodness in the middle. I wanted to bring them back so you could be sure and enjoy them too.
Go ahead, make some.
Symphony Brownies
by Brandy's Baking
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 30-35 minutes
Ingredients (12 brownies)
- 4 ounces unsweetened chocolate; coarsely chopped
- 3/4 cup butter
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 (4.5 ounce) Symphony Chocolate bars; broken into little rectangles
Preheat oven to 350. Line an 8 x 8 baking pan with parchment paper or foil, and butter or spray with non-stick cooking spray.
Microwave chocolate and butter in a large bowl (slowly and at low power-don't burn the chocolate!) for 2-3 minutes (30 seconds at a time) or until butter is melted.
Whisk until chocolate is melted. Whisk in sugar and add in eggs, vanilla and salt. Whisk until smooth. Gradually add in flour and stir until just combined.
Spread ½ the batter into prepared pan. Add an even layer of Symphony bar rectangles and cover with remaining ½ of brownie batter. Gently spread the batter, making it smooth and even. Bake for 30 - 32 minutes; do not over bake.
Let brownies cool completely on a rack before cutting.

These do look wonderful!! And I know how hard ADHD can be! My parents had a hard time with one of my brothers. But it just took some time for everybody to make adjustments and figure out what would work for our family. And now I can honestly say, he's by far the most pleasant person in our family to be around!
Just hang in there :) And keep making brownies! - June 26, 2012 at 8:27 PM

- This item is from the 110th Congress (2007-2008) and is no longer current. Comments, voting, and wiki editing have been disabled, and the cost/savings estimate has been frozen.
H.R. 133 would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to deny citizenship at birth to children born in the United States of parents who are not citizens or permanent resident aliens.

Visitor Comments
February 6, 2007, 7:24pm (report abuse)Amen. It's pretty sad that these kids are PRIVELIGED with citizenship in our great country bercause their parents BROKE THE LAW.
February 20, 2007, 11:01pm (report abuse)Right on!! Whether they were brought here at the age of 2 or birthed here, they're all illegal to me if their mom is. Even those who grew up here and went to school here, it's time to deport them all. Sure, they don't anything about life in Mexico, they will face lives of violence, corruption and poverty, but there is no such thing as a Mexican American citizen. Once a Mexican, always a Mexican, I say. Punish the kids for the crimes of the parents, it's the American way. It's only fair, just like inherited slavery. Oh, wait, did I type that out loud?
March 5, 2007, 8:38am (report abuse)According to this Bill students that grow up and attend American schools would have to be deported due to their illegal citizenship, probably of something that had no prior knowledge of. Its not fair to the child who didn't know they weren't an American citizen
March 7, 2007, 7:40pm (report abuse)Children should not be made to suffer for the sins of their parents. Just because the parents broke the law, does not mean the child should not get the same privileges as any other child. Would you agree with having the child of murderer having to finish his sentence of 250 years just because he died before he had to finish it? NO. So why should the child of an illegal immigrant be punished.
March 17, 2007, 11:07pm (report abuse)The parents made these kids illegals. These kids will be able to sponsor their entire foreign extended family when the child reaches 21. This "birthright citizenship" is a magnet that attracts illegal immigrants. These kids' complaint is with their parents, not the United States.
April 4, 2007, 11:23pm (report abuse)The bill would exclude those who are born to illegal aliens in the future, not retroactively. This would serve to discourage those who would come here illegally just to give birth so that their children would be citizens automatically and would be then be allowed to bring all their relatives into the country as well.
April 6, 2007, 10:15am (report abuse)If automatic birthright is such a great idea, then why is it that we are the only country that allows it? Tell me in which other country you can give birth and the child is automatically a citizen of that country? This may have been good for the U.S. in the past, but times have changed and our laws need to change accordingly.
April 6, 2007, 10:21am (report abuse)This is a good bill and could pass if it is not ammended as it goes through committees with "pork" and other issues that have nothing to do with aautomatic citizenship. Let's let our congress representatives know that we support a "clean" HR 133.
April 17, 2007, 9:13pm (report abuse)Before anybody else makes any negative comments on this issue, check out the site usillegalaliens.com article titled The Dark Side of Illegal Immigrants
April 24, 2007, 6:08pm (report abuse)What part of ILLEGAL are you not getting? If the parents are here illegally then the kids were born here illegally. Sorry but go home or go to jail. Illegal means Not legal no matter what the circumstance.
May 2, 2007, 12:46pm (report abuse)Karen, you refer tolegal family unit in USA with UR example. The illegals are not legal family unit. You compare apples &oranges
May 2, 2007, 12:52pm (report abuse)Yes, USA = 'country of immigrants' who created the system we have today w/all benefits ie social security,welfare,etc,, for the very ones who created it-not those who wish to barge in and take what they dont deserve.
May 17, 2007, 10:55am (report abuse)We need this to pass. Our resources are being stretched too thin. We work hard for the little that we have, these people come here and get everything given to them.
May 19, 2007, 1:16am (report abuse)Its so odd that a humanitarian argument is used to perpetuate this. Yes, the child may be deported if illegal. On the other hand the child is still the same nationality as his parents, which works to keep families together.
This policy of having the child born here become a citizen automatically while the rest of the family isn't a citizen is just wrong! It isn't nice or respectful to families.
It also increases the issues with immigration in general.
This law would benefit the U.S. and its citizens, while also keeping families together.
May 23, 2007, 1:07pm (report abuse)While this bill does have the potential to reduce the splitting of families when immigrants are dragged from their homes in the middle of the night by vigilantes who would now be permitted to drag the children too, in all it stems from a gross misunderstanding of the problems of immigration. It effectively punishes people for trying to not starve to death in their own country. And it prevents good people from trying to provide their family with a better life. Surely some of you can appreciate that—especially since a great majority of you descend from immigrants.
The addition of language specifying wedlock is offensive. Quite frankly, they are imposing religious overtones into legislation. No specification should be made for against marriage as an existing condition during child birth.
July 9, 2007, 7:21pm (report abuse)This bill must pass, and should be made retroactive to the 1986 amnesty. 70% of births at Pasadena, California's Huntington Hosptial are to illegal immigrant mothers. Nearly 400,000 new anchor babies born per year in this country since the last amnesty. This is a huge demographic shift that is extremely damaging to our social fabric and our future. 40% graduation rates among Latino anchor baby high schoolers in Los Angeles. This bill must pass, but remember that another bill just like it didn't pass at the end of 2005. It's about time for the anchor baby debacle to end once and for all.
July 9, 2007, 7:31pm (report abuse)This breaking up families line is being used constantly by open borders advocates like Kennedy and Feinstein and it's bullcrap. These children were illegally given citizenship in the first place. Their parents chose to break our laws and those choices have consequences. Deporting the parents along with their dependant children would send that message loud and clear. In fact, just as the felon loses his right to vote, these illegal immigrants need to be told that they have forfeited their right to ever become US citizens by their blatant disregard for our nation's right to sovereignty. Children born to US citizens are US citizens regardless of what country they are born in. This keeps families together in one nationality. Our gross misinterpretation of the 14th Amendement for the last forty years has been bad for the US and Mexico.
September 3, 2007, 11:27pm (report abuse)All of these comments assume the only issue at hand involves illegal immigration from Mexico. Remember that when you draft a law, it applies to all persons and may inadvertantly injure people who do not fall into the "most hated" category of the day. Our priorities change, the "children" who must not have citizenship changes over time, but laws stay the same. Would it be better to have an even larger population of "illegal" immigrants and children without citizenship rights living in the country without ties, obligations, or legal affection for the nation in which they live and grow up? Let's not be blind xenophobes and think critically about how laws work.
October 26, 2007, 3:44pm (report abuse)This reform is long overdue. I'm tired of Mexicans coming across the border in Arizona to have their illegal status babies granted automatic citizenship and then have to support the illegal parents through welfare to live here.
November 19, 2007, 1:16pm (report abuse)Dr Carl, you sound like a complete moron, Mexicans as you called, (like they are a different kind of human race), them have no access to welfare if they are illegal aliens. The vast majority of people on welfare are citizens of this country!!!Check your facts.
December 19, 2007, 6:24pm (report abuse)Better late than never.
I'm sick and tired of hearing " well it's not the child fault". SO WHAT!! I do not want any of my tax dollars supporting any illegals and that includes the anchor babies, period. Anchor babies are costing us $6,000,000,000 a year ( see http://www.aim.org/special_report/5511_0_8_0_C/ ). This is another incentive for illegals to come here because they know there children will get free medical, free food. free education, free,free,free.
February 6, 2008, 10:29am (report abuse)Dear Jake,
Im sorry but
Your comment is quite foolish. I dont believe you should punish a child for the crimes his/her parent commits ,and im positive thats not the "american" way but more like your way. If they went to school here and grew up here, they have just as much a right to stay here as anyone else does, no matter what their parents did. I do agree with parts of the bill dont get me wrong, but the idea of "punishing" their children is foolish. And who said the bill is geared towards just "mexicans". Some of you speak as if they are a different species. Im not even gonna touch on the inherited slavery comment because then i might "accidently" type something and look foolish myself
Why can't we just get along?
February 7, 2008, 4:38pm (report abuse)Those that are for the bill, I believe are making a serious mistake. Children should never be made to suffer the crimes of their parents. This bill maybe geared towards immigration in general, but this racism that many of you are spouting is geared towards Mexicans.That is just disgusting and sadding that people can hate an entire race. They're people just like us!
Why can't we all just get along?
February 7, 2008, 5:53pm (report abuse)My apologies. I meant to say "country, and it's citizens" instead of "race", because technically a race would be Hispanics, Caucasian, etc. I just realized my mistake.
February 12, 2008, 2:52pm (report abuse)Kenny...I'm pretty sure Jake was being sarcastic, dear...anywho. It could go both ways. You could look at the statistics, and how crappy it is that people can come here, have a baby to keep themselves here, not have to pay taxes, and reap all our benefits anyway. However, you could also look at the fact that they're desperate to get here because their country sucks and America is the only way out they can find. (this is, at least, MY crude understanding of the issue...)
February 12, 2008, 3:15pm (report abuse)Yeah Tori you make a good point i have many foreign friends and they discussed that they indeed come over to america as a escape from their countries problems. which is totally understandable. I mean i think people in america need to stop and look at it from their point of view sometimes. like if america was corrupt,etc. and sucked most likely people are gonna go to a better place ( whether illegal or not) and try to make a better life.
February 12, 2008, 3:39pm (report abuse)Kenny said, "...the idea of "punishing" their children is foolish."
I ask you, (and not just Kenny, all of you who argue that is unfair to punish the children for the crimes of their fathers), which is more foolish, to punish the children, or reward them for the crimes of their fathers?
Note of course I refer to punishment has the denial of citizenship, and reward as granting citizenship.
February 13, 2008, 4:17pm (report abuse)Illegal immigrants work for under the counter money.. So they dont pay income taxes which hurts our economy and country itself. So if they want their kid to have the same opportunities as an american kid they should go apply for citizenship
February 13, 2008, 4:29pm (report abuse)Gray,
so your dad killed someone and you had nothing to do with it. but because your dad was a bad ass you are now to be punished. ya that seems pretty fair to me. i agree with kenny.
March 13, 2008, 1:35pm (report abuse)hmm how about this for extreme deport all people born to parents who are foreign nationals retroactive to the past 80 years and revoke their citizenship to boot.
April 21, 2008, 5:30pm (report abuse)Bobby, illegal immigrants aren't the only people who work under the counter. Citizens of this messed up country do it all the time. I don't understand how unhumane some of these comments are. What happened to being compassionate? I'm sure you would be if you were the one in such a position. Unfortunately for them, no one chooses their own birthplace!
July 20, 2008, 5:53pm (report abuse)This country was founded, created, and composed of pure immigrants. None of us, unless Native American, can truly trace back their ancestry to remain in the U.S. Our society has become very arrogant and selfish to start kicking people out and being selective of who they want immigrating here. Its very sad.
November 30, 2008, 11:00am (report abuse)some of you need to have a heart I was at one point an illegal imiigrant but got my green card in 1980 since then I fought for a country that wasen't mine 3 times Yes IRAQ and paid a sacrafice I was wounded multiple times and recived the purple heart- bronze star sometihing alot of you dont know what those 2 medals are. If people like me are willing to fight for your country then shut the hell up. I just recently got My U.S. Citzenship and now retired at the age of 30.... so if i where you grow up!!!
January 5, 2009, 7:06pm (report abuse)While we're at it why do we keep giving IRS numbers to illegals so they can pay taxes? Stupid illegal tax payers. Sending money back to their countries after they've paid taxes on it and not being able to claim returns. This country is going nowhere man. Whoever supports this supports biggotry and poverty.

Take a look at what's been growing in Downtown Fresno. There are piles of smelly trash covering a city street and shacks built along the fence of Freeway 99. It stretches across two blocks, right behind homes and churches.
"Everyday it's getting larger and larger," said Edward Dunn, Pastor of First Union Missionary Baptist Church.
Dunn says he tries to help the homeless. He even lets them use the church's water. But lately cars have been getting broken into and he's tired of the disgusting mess.
"I hate to use the word filthy. Not only does it effect the community, the way it looks, but also diseases," said Dunn.
The City of Fresno says it has received dozen of complaints over the last year, but its hands are tied.
"It would appear that the city isn't doing anything about it, but the city is doing a lot. It's on two private parcels of land and so the city has initiated code enforcement cases against each property owner, but it's up to each property owner to clean up the mess," said Gregory Barfield, Chief of Staff for Oliver Baines.
The city is cleaning up the trash on Monterey Street. Barfield says the city just cleared it on January 9th, but one week later the street is filled with trash again. A homeless man who's lived in the area for a year doesn't think he's bothering residents.
"Most of them deal with us. We make sure nothing happens to their house and they make sure nothing happens to our tents. We sort of work together," said "Wolf."
But one resident said she can't even let her kids play outside.
The city says one of the private land owners hasn't responded to any letters. The other is beginning to come around. CBS47 wasn't able to reach either land-owner.

Translating Miami Real Estate Into Spanish & Portuguese, 1Q 2012 Edition
Posted by Jonathan J. Miller -Thursday, April 26, 2012, 3:39 PM
1 Comment
Miami-based Douglas Elliman has had my Miami market report handiwork translated to both Spanish and Portuguese to better serve their South American clientele. Market demand from South America has been a significant force over the past year and a half. The weak US dollar continues to be one of the factors driving housing demand in Miami and one of the key reasons why the non-distressed market continues to thrive.
Elliman Report: Miami Sales (Spanish)Elliman Report: Miami Sales (Portuguese)
I took five years of French in high school so it's a bit disorientating to see my analysis translated, but very cool at the same time. We are expanding our South Florida market analysis significantly over the next several months (no, France is not on the rollout list…yet).
