Tom Hynes was re-elected supervisor:
Thomas Hynes 543
Bill Walcutt 211
Top vote getters in the race for town council were Edward Raeder and Carol Murray:
Edward Raeder 377

That interesting subject was discussed by both candidates running for town supervisor at a meet-the-candidates event, which was held at Roxbury radio station WIOX last Wednesday at 7 p.m. The event, which the radio station billed as a "conversation," ended weeks of speculation as to whether incumbent Democratic Town Supervisor Tom Hynes and his Republican-Independent challenger Bill Walcutt would agree to debate.

With merely three weeks left before Election Day, many local political races are heating up, including those in Roxbury.
Three Democratic incumbents holding key offices, face challenges from Republicans, who are also running on the independent line. While the incumbents are running on their experience and track records, the challengers are demanding change. Incumbent Town Supervisor Tom Hynes will face challenger Bill Walcutt in November. Walcutt is currently Roxbury's building inspector.

The Roxbury Town Board got its first look at next year's $3,250,000 budget at a specially scheduled workshop at town hall on Monday night. The 2012 Preliminary Budget was prepared by Town Clerk Diane Pickett.
Other than some minor adjustments, most of the budget, which represents the amount of money that will be raised by taxes, remained the same after the workshop concluded. The 2012 budget is little changed from 2011.

Hello and thanks for researching this very important question...I am so sorry that you and your Dear Friend are having this difficult and distressing experience.
Dogs will experience kidney failure for a number of reasons...including Acute (sudden) failure due to illness or poisoning, and Chronic deterioration of the filtering tubes inside the kidneys.
Dogs with kidney disease have a lot of problems with their digestive organs...the metabolic by-products that are not being taken out of his system damage and "burn" the linings of the stomach and intestines. This can create actual sores (ulcers) and lead to nausea.
Since your dog may eat a meal and then feel pain or nausea, he may be "blaming" the meal for the discomfort. This makes it hard to feed one type of food for each meal every day. You may need to switch between bland foods, even using pasta and processed breads or syrupto get some calories into him.
You can scroll down on this page to find out a lot more information about how to feed herim at home...including how to avoid foods high in phosphorous (something that is worse for these patients than protein!):
Kidney Disease Information and Diet Advice Here
But he might need some medicines now to help coat and protect his digestive linings. Ask your vet about using an over-the-counter acid-neutralizing medicine such as Alternagel (this can also help take phosphorous out of his meals--so you might get two benefits from it!).
Stronger prescription medicines may be needed as time passes, so do make your concerns known to your medical support staff as they arise. These pets are Managed and not Cured, so your veterinary staff should be ready and able to hear from you as new symptoms come up.
Pets with deteriorating kidney function can become anemic, and then lose the desire to eat anything at all. This is because the kidneys kind of "count" blood cells as they are passing through. When the kidneys find that red blood cells are in short supply, they secrete a hormonal signal that tells the bone marrow to "Make More Red Blood Cells". When the kidneys degrade, they lose the ability to both "count" and secrete the hormone signal. This hormone can be given as an injection when needed...the vet analyses his blood for the red cell status, and then gives a medicine called erythropoetin. Find out if his red blood cells are in good supply.
If the vomit does not stop, he should be re-admited to the hospital for more IV maintenance...continued vomit will dehydrate him more and cause his electrolytes to go seriously out of balance.
Many pet owners now consult with veterinarians who have been specially trained and licensed to use non-chemical medicines...you can search for one in your area here:
Find Holistic Veterinarian here
. Not all home remedies are safe for the kidneys, so you should consult with a trained pratitioner.
If you need additional support at this time, please "

I would like to ask about a good diet of foods I can offer my dog that has kidney failure. What foods can we offer him that are low in phosphorus that are fresh foods we can make at home. I don't want to put him on the low protien diet for fear he could become anemic. please help me to know what is best to feed him he has lost alot of weight.
Gen B.
replied 5 years ago.
What foods to include in such a diet depend a lot on what his kidney values actually are...the link above gives good home-cooking advice, but you should discuss feeding him in-depth with your vet, or with a qualified holistic practitioner (usually more familiar with recipes from-scratch).
For the time-being, while he is still in crisis and prone to vomit, do offer him any bland carb-based things like potato bread, over-cooked ramen noodles (WITHOUT THE SEASONING ADDED), or baby rice cereal mixed with chicken baby food (NO garlic or onion on the label). Boiled eggs are naturally low in phosphorous. The phosphorous binder you have been prescribed should perform well with these foods.
Your vet may actually have this book, or one like it, in the office and can copy recipes out for you:
Home-Prepared Dog & Cat Diets
Or there are some recipes listed here (look for "failing kidneys" NOT "lower urinary tract"):
Read article here
I do believe that whole foods are best for any ailing condition and I myself frequently consult with a licensed Traditional Chinese Medicine vet when the need arises to customize the basic food recipe I make for my dogs...each pet is an individual and benefits from individualized meals.
Let me know if you have other great questions about this..."

Port of Morrow - The Shins
- Critic Score
- Most active
- Publication
- Most clicked
Jul 11, 2012With Port of Morrow Mercer digs deep in forming a polished and almost, muscular relationship with the music.
Mar 16, 2012These are songs to fall in love to, to grow along with, and to share with friends in need of a life-change.
Mar 13, 2012It's arguably Mercer's and the Shins' most satisfying achievement.
Mar 19, 2012Port of Morrow doesn't sound like it belongs to any particular decade or style, instead hopping around like some fully loaded AM radio dial that cranks out gem after gem.
Mar 15, 2012[Frontman James Mercer] and his new mates have conjured the band's best album in nearly a decade.
Apr 12, 2012Clumsy it might be, familiar it might be; redundant it sure isn't quite yet.

Mar 20, 2012The Shins Port of Morrow is triumphant return. Unlike Radiohead's TKOL and Red Hot Chili Peppers' I'm With You, it's one of those albums you look forward to months in advance and it doesn't disappoint.… Full Review »
Mar 20, 2012A great addition to The Shins' discography, and easily the best album to have been released this year (as of so far at least). While it lacks some of the poignant lows of previous albums, the soaring highs carry the album far above many previous ventures of Mercer's. Although at times Port of Morrow can sound quite crisp and clean in comparison to the dark instrumentation of Wincing the Night Away or the lo-fi element of Oh, Inverted World, it still manages to hold its own, proving once again the prowess of James Mercer's abilities. Overall, I love this album to death, and while it does threaten to fizzle out towards the end, it's incredibly enjoyable and a great listen.… Full Review »
Apr 19, 2012I'd have to disagree with j30...I found it an album I looked forward to for months and found hugely disappointing. "Wincing..." still gets regular plays after years of listening, but this? I've made myself listen to this on and off for about 2 weeks, hoping for something, but its just fairly insipid in the main. That would be reasonable, but there are a number of songs which make me want to turn it off immediately. This is mainly due to lyrics (e.g. the first use of the term "ducks in a row" outside of a business meeting full of chubby guys in chinos, or that stuff about dishwater disguised as lemonade) but there are also some musical moments where they seem to be striving for some kind of MOR-type appeal (maybe those chubby guys at the meeting? "Hey Chet, great slides, have you heard of the Shins, they're this new band..."). There are a few decent tunes, Simple Song stands out but I'm already getting a little sick of it. One review I read described it as music made especially for people in their late 30s who still want to feel a bit cool. The reviewer meant it as a good thing, and yeah I'd fall into that category but that statement kind of sums up how it sounds to me.… Full Review »

Description: Weatherby Laminated Mark V .300 Wby. This gun has been lightly fired. The bore is bright with good rifling. The exterior shows very little wear. This very nice gun is more utilitarian than your normal Mark V, but it has its own style of beauty based on pure functionality. The blue is a very fine matte that corresponds with the satin finish of the laminated wood. The light brown of the recoil pad compliments the dark brown of the fore end tip, and sets off the stainless grip cap, which can be engraved with initials.

As with every big firm, growth is slow and there is bureaucracy. You also need to look after your own career if you desire to move within departments. HR will "try" to help but ultimately you need to find a mentor.RecommendsApproves of CEO

Your corrupt DOJ-gives-another-corrupt Democrat-a-pass story of the day
Let's see. Corruptocrat Attorney General Eric Holder gave the New Black Panther Party thugs a pass. And he gave pay-for-play corruptocrat Bill Richardson a pass.
Who's the lucky winner today?
Democrat Rep. Alan "Cheat River" Mollohan of West Virginia.
You may recall that he was forced to step down from the House Ethics Committee four years ago in the wake of publicity over his shoddy financial disclosure forms and a National Legal and Policy Center complaint documenting shady real estate dealings.
Holder waved his magic wanded and ended a DOJ probe of the cesspool today. Poof:
The Justice Department has shuttered its nearly four-year investigation into the personal finances of Rep. Alan Mollohan (D-W.Va.), freeing the 14-term lawmaker to pursue what could be a tough bid for reelection without the lingering cloud of a federal criminal probe.
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Columbia had been overseeing an investigation of Mollohan, a senior member of the House Appropriations Committee, for steering roughly $250 million in line-item expenditures to several nonprofit organizations run by close friends, who also were real estate partners with him.
Mollohan's office was notified this month that the investigation had been closed without criminal charges filed. Federal prosecutors declined to elaborate on what the investigation had found.
"We're not going to get into any details, but I can confirm we've closed the investigation into Alan Mollohan," Ben Friedman, spokesman for the U.S. attorney's office, said Monday evening.
Mum's the word.
Doctor Zero: "If Eric Holder's not going to investigate anything, how about a spending freeze for the DOJ?"
Seconding that!

what an awesome company.
Like a giant version of Mouse Trap!
What are they trying to promote? Caffeine?
meh. Didn't really do anything for me. The concept was good but the execution was lacking for me. Like Macaskill's bike swinging over just so he could grab it was weak. (and golf? really?)
Have him positioned on the end of a fixed teeter-totter that is released and tilts him into a roll-in for that jump…that would have been cool(er) or at least more interesting.
Also, Mark Webbah or Sebastian Vettel should have been there with the F1 car, not sure how they could've left that out.
That might be impressive if they pulled it off in a single take, otherwise meh.
all my favorite xxxtreme sports rolled into one video
25 years earlier (in one take, with a much better soundtrack)
That was cool, although OK Go would be a better soundtrack choice.
capital LAME!!!!

NEW YORK Taseko Mines Ltd. has received a 72-hour strike notice from the Canadian Auto Workers (CAW) union, which represents employees at the companys majority-owned Gibraltar copper and molybdenum mine in British Columbia.
The labor contract has expired and "there are some outstanding issues that have to be dealt with," CAW lead negotiator Peter Smith told AMM Wednesday. The union and Taseko are working to agree on dates for further negotiation, he added.
"Taseko remains firmly committed to negotiating a new contract with the CAW and avoiding strike action," the Vancouver-based company said.
The Gibraltar Mine, which produced 23.7 million pounds of copper and 276,000 pounds of molybdenum in the quarter ended Sept. 30, is owned 75 percent by Taseko and 25 percent by Cariboo Copper Corp., a subsidiary of Tokyo-based Sojitz Corp.

"The Wrestler" is about a man who can do one thing well, and keeps on doing it because of need, weary skill and pride. He wrestles for a living. Pro wrestling is a fake sport, right? Yes, but as an activity, it's pretty real. I watch it on TV with fascination. It's scripted that the villain sneaks up on the hero, who pretends not to see him, and pushes him over the ropes and out of the ring. Fake. But when the hero hits the floor, how fake is that? "Those guys learn how to fall," people tell me. Want to sign up for the lessons?
Mickey Rourke plays the battered, broke, lonely hero, Randy ("The Ram") Robinson. This is the performance of his lifetime, will win him a nomination, may win him the Oscar. Like many great performances, it has an element of truth. Rourke himself was once young and glorious and made the big bucks. He did professional boxing just for the hell of it. He alienated a lot of people. He fell from grace and stardom, but kept working, because he was an actor and that was what he did. Now here is his comeback role, playing Randy the Ram's comeback.
This is Rourke doing astonishing physical acting. He has the physique of a body builder, perhaps thanks to some steroid use, which would also be true of Randy. He gets into the ring and does the work. Rourke may not be physically performing every single thing we see, including the leaps off ropes and ladders and the nasty falls. Special effects have robbed movies of their believability. But I've seen a lot of F/X, and I have to say it looked to me like he was really doing these things.
Not that it matters. It appears that he is, and his ring performances and the punishment he takes supply the bedrock for the story, which involves his damaged relationship with his daughter Stephanie (Evan Rachel Wood) and what he hopes will become a relationship with the stripper Cassidy (Marisa Tomei). Except for his backstage camaraderie with other wrestling old-timers, Randy has burned all his bridges in life. Stephanie is far, far from happy to see him at her door again. And he doesn't quite believe Cassidy, whose real name is Pam, when she carefully explains that she is not available.
Here is the irony, which he won't accept. Cassidy is as much a performer as Randy. He is a ring worker. She is a sex worker. They put on a show and give the customers what they want. It pays the rent. There is always a chasm between pros and their audiences. That's why so many show-biz people marry each other. Magicians say, "The trick is told when the trick is sold." Think about that.
But Randy has grown a little wiser with the years, less blinded by stardom, more able to admit emotional need. Maybe, too, he was using more drugs in those days, and they always take first place before relationships. (He gets a sales pitch from a fellow wrestler who seems to stock more drugs than Walgreens.) Randy has a residual charm and sentimentality, which helps him and also deceives him. He makes some small progress with his daughter.
And as for Cassidy -- have you ever seen Marisa Tomei play a bitch? I haven't. I don't know if she can. She seems to have something good at the heart of her that endows this stripper with warmth and sympathy. Not that Randy should get his hopes up.
The most fascinating element in Darren Aronofsky's film is the backstage detail about wrestling. He does this so well, yet has never made a film even remotely like this before. In the snow and slush of New Jersey, Randy and his opponents make the rounds of shabby union halls, school gyms, community centers and American Legion halls, using whatever they can find for dressing rooms, taping their damaged parts, psyching themselves up and agreeing beforehand on the script. We learn how they make themselves bleed, prepare for violent "surprises," talk through each match. And then they go out and do it. As nearly as I can tell, their planning only means that they get hurt in the ways they expect, and not in unforeseen ways.
I cared as deeply about Randy the Ram as any movie character I've seen this year. I cared about Mickey Rourke, too. The way this role and this film unfold, that almost amounts to the same thing. Rourke may not win the Oscar for best actor. But it would make me feel good to see him up there. It really would.
Note: "The Wrestler" is one of the year's best films. It wasn't on my "best films" list for complicated and boring reasons.

About Doug McMillan
Jenn and I are residents of North Florida. I recently retired, but my wife has a few more years at the grindstone. I am enjoying this whole Kept Man thing! We enjoy traveling, snorkeling, diving, jet-skiing, fishing, swimming, reading, long walks on the beach (seriously), and reading on the beach. We purchased the condo after renting it ourselves and falling in love with the island and Grand Caribe. We enjoy spending time with our family on vacation and treasure the memories we make. We intend for this to be our retirement home within the next couple of years. This is our only rental unit.
Doug McMillan purchased this condo in 2013
Why Doug McMillan chose Ambergris Caye
We have traveled extensively in the Caribbean and this is the first place that just felt right. This is an amazing, unspoiled island paradise like no other that we have found. There are no Hilton's or McDonalds'; it is completely unspoiled from the blight of franchised establishments, while still offering the modern comforts of home.
What makes this condo unique
You just can't beat the view and the ocean breezes! Whether you are looking for a location to enjoy outdoor activities, spend time with family, or just to escape it all, this is the place you have been looking to experience. Pack your sandals, swimsuits, casual wear, and sunscreen

Since TNA wants Brutus Magnus to have a solid run as the heavyweight champion, the creative department will be lining up some challengers, so he can work memorable feuds. Aside from Samoa Joe, another candidate being discussed is James Storm, who has routinely gotten the best reactions from the live audiences.
Rumors are spreading that Angelina Love could be making a surprise return at the Genesis edition of Impact Wrestling tonight, as the former TNA knockout was spotted on a plane with Samoa Joe, who is heading to Huntsville to perform at the show.
Triple H is said to be against the idea of bringing in Bobby Roode and Samoa Joe from TNA.
Samoa Joe revealed some bad news on Twitter. While he was off in Europe touring with TNA, he had a death in the family. His grandfather passed away. Since he did not want to leave work, he was forced to miss the funeral.
Wrestle-1, the new promotion founded by the Great Muta, is about to get an influx of talent from TNA for an upcoming live event in March. Austin Aries, Abyss, Bobby Roode, Brutus Magnus, Christopher Daniels, Davey Richards, Eddie Edwards, Frankie Kazarian, Gail Kim, Madison Rayne and Samoa Joe have been confirmed for the trip.

Originally written December 03, 2012 on Sox and Dawgs:
There are going to be times this season when the UConn Huskies women's basketball team will be tested. Monday night was one of those nights. Behind a stellar all-around effort from Kelly Faris, the No. 2 Huskies beat the No. 9 Maryland Terrapins 63-48 in front of 11,485 at the XL Center in Hartford, CT in the Women's Jimmy V Classic. UConn improves to 7-0 on the season. Maryland falls to 4-2. Faris may not have led the team in scoring on Monday night but she put up some outstanding numbers. She had eight points, seven rebounds, seven assists and eight steals. The assists and steals were a team-high. Stefanie Dolson led UConn with 14 points and eight rebounds. Breanna Stewart added 13 points and six rebounds. Brianna Banks rounded out the Huskies in double figures with 11 points. Tianna Hawkins led the Terrapins with a double-double of 14 points and 10 rebounds. Chloe Pavlech added 10 points while Alicia DeVaughn had eight points and nine rebounds. Th...

Raven Girl, Royal Ballet/ Witch-Hunt, Bern Ballett/ The Great Gatsby, Northern Ballet | Dance reviews, news & interviews
Raven Girl, Royal Ballet/ Witch-Hunt, Bern Ballett/ The Great Gatsby, Northern Ballet
Story-ballets are back, with witches, raven girls and the all too scrutable Gatsby
Ballet is telling stories again. Last night Wayne McGregor's debut as a narrator followed hot on the heels of Cathy Marston's Witch-Hunt for Bern Ballett, both in the Royal Opera House complex, and Northern Ballet's visit to London with David Nixon's new The Great Gatsby. (To say nothing of David Bintley's Aladdin and even less of Peter Schaufuss's Midnight Express.)
Nixon is known as a straight narrative man, Marston a more expressionistic type, McGregor all abstract and kinetic, theory. Seeing the three works during the current orbit of Kenneth MacMillan's eyepopping Mayerling at Covent Garden (now there's storytelling) exposed that the priority for success is not "story" per se, but characters that seize you in a step, the exhilaration of expert movement, musical escape, the application of a stylised ensemble language, the suspenseful thrill of stillness. And as Balanchine said anyway, put a man and a woman on stage, and there's a story.
Of the three, Marston won out with her intelligent treatment at the Linbury Studio Theatre, for the visiting Bern Ballett, of a tale of medieval supposed witchcraft (last performance is tonight). It streaks ahead of Nixon's expert but shallow treatment of Fitzgerald, visiting Sadler's Wells last week, and McGregor's lumpy, confused effort at Covent Garden with Audrey Niffenegger, Raven Girl.
McGregor's is distant, cool, a bit of phoning home dutifully to the Royal Ballet, his heart not seeming in it
Myths are great in ballet, and Raven Girl and Witch-Hunt are both pregnant with superstitions and fairy fancies, the first a fairy-tale, the second a regrettable piece of history. But where you feel Marston urgently digging her claws into her material, McGregor's is distant, cool, a bit of phoning home dutifully to the Royal Ballet, his heart not seeming in it.
The Raven-Girl in Niffenegger's story is born from an unlikely marriage between a postman and a (girl) raven. The story treatment by McGregor is simplistic despite the luxury digital visuals and lush movie-score music - it's no parable about difference, it's no allegory about knowing yourself.
The raven girl is born to mismatched parents, feels split, asks a plastic surgeon to give her wings, then finds she can't fly with the wings which are a lot better than her mum's, and all is confusion after that. She wanders happily up a cliff in the dark with a raven swain, but is she now happy as all bird? And how do her odd-sock parents feel about their own life together?
Like Christopher Wheeldon's Alice in Wonderland for the Royal Ballet, this is a work reliant on hyperactive designers while the choreographer takes a back seat. Niffenegger's charcoal palette from her book is faithfully deployed by digital whizz Ravi Deepres and designer Vicki Mortimer. There is less choreography in the inordinately long work (72 minutes) than mime and walking about, which conspires to avoid tackling the psychological life of the curious personages.
Sarah Lamb looks sweet and pliant in a black gamine wig as the Raven-Girl, and gives not a clue whether she feels pain in any part of her life, with or without wings. But she hasn't much to play with, except for trapezes and chairs (pictured right by Johan Persson/ROH). Only two pieces of dance stand out. There's an unkindness of ravens, a corps de corbeaux, so stylishly underlit by Lucy Carter that what must be time-consumingly intricate choreography is almost invisible.
We get lift-off finally in the culminating pas de deux for the Raven Girl and the Raven Prince, who appears like magic at the end, an unexplained mystery. This makes lovely, heart-lifting attempts at launch, Lamb wafted weightlessly in her dream of flying by the supportive Eric Underwood, helped into her own fantasy through some imaginative and even erotic work by McGregor which at last sets loose something childlike and human in that oppressively cool cerebrum of his.
However, it is more rewarding to see a choreographer who you sense felt an imperative to put her characters on stage and show us their emotional lives. Cathy Marston isn't an innovative or inventive choreographer of movement, but she has thrown all her might into Witch-Hunt. An intelligent passion for her subject runs through the work, redeeming many of its weaknesses. Her choice of 17th-century music by Vivaldi and his contemporaries offsets music created to rise above baseness against events that expose human beings' animal fears, particularly about women and sex.
The cast, dressed in white, resemble staff at a psychiatric hospital, where an actress voices her memories of being an ailing child who came under the influence of a new servant to the household, a beautiful, alluring creature whose sexual attractiveness rapidly saw her accused as a witch. The child vomited needles; who put the needles in her milk? The servant, being a witch? The mother, both jealous of the servant and in love with her, attempting to frame her? The child herself, unhinged by her desperate sense of alienation from her mother?

I was dismayed to see an unfair and inaccurate characterization of our old historic neighborhood of Boogertown on the front page of the Friday, June 1st issue of the C-I. The caption that appeared under the "Brick by Brick: The Walls Tumbled Down" photo, which depicted the demolition of the band room at the old Camden Middle School (and old Camden High School), falsely portrayed our neighborhood's efforts to propose an alternative to the proposal to extend Jordan Street to Laurens as having been responsible for the property being "vacant for years and subject to vandalism."

Lawyers of every political persuasion are lining up in Washington to have their say on the legality or illegality of the plan President Obama intends to implement regarding amnesty for illegal aliens who are in the United States without proper authorization, with one major network saying the president's plan to take the immigration system into his own hands "is a daring test of the limits of presidential power."

Found April 05, 2013 on Start 'N' Park Blog:
PLAYERS: Brad Keselowski, Joey Logano
TEAMS: Michigan Wolverines
TEAMS: Michigan Wolverines
A STRONG SECOND: While his string of four-consecutive top-five finishes came to an end two weeks ago at Auto Club Speedway, Keselowski is still off to the best start of his career. Sitting second in the driver standings, Keselowski has an average finishing position of 7.4 over the first five races. This is a 10.2-position improvement over last year at this same time MARTINSVILLE FLASHBACK: In his last visit to Martinsville Speedway in the fall of 2012, Keselowski was in the midst of a title fight – which he ultimately won – when his weekend got off to a rocky start after he qualified 32nd for the event. Calmly, Keselowski worked his way through the field for a sixth-place finish, a result that was key in his run to the Cup Series title. BIG WEEKEND: In addition to his duties driving the "Blue Deuce," Keselowski will also don the hats of team owner and fan this weekend. His two Brad Keselowski Racing entries will be competing in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series race at Martinsville on Saturday afternoon, the same day his beloved Michigan Wolverines play in their first NCAA Basketball Final Four game since 1993. DISCOUNT TIRE COMMERCIAL: Keselowski and Penske Racing teammate, Joey Logano, are the stars of a new television commercial for Discount Tire that will make its debut next week. YOU SEEM TO HAVE TAKEN TO MARTINSVILLE OVER THE LAST TWO SEASONS. WHAT'S THE REASON WHY? "Martinsville is a place where I have really mixed emotions about. Early in my career that was a place where I really couldn't figure out, to be honest. Now the last few times we have been there I feel like we have been exceptionally strong. We didn't qualify as well as we wanted to last fall and started in the back, but by the end of the race we came on really well. I think going back to Martinsville we are a lot smarter, I am a lot wiser as to what I need and I think this year I have to be honest – I am going in feeling like we can win the race and might be one of the favorites." HOW DOES IT FEEL TO START THE YEAR SO WELL? "I can tell you it is a big weight off our shoulders to come out of the gate so strong. It is a quick way of quieting all those that said when we switched to Ford we were going to be in a lot of trouble. That is really big for us at Penske Racing and big for me personally. It shows the strength we have at every layer, whether as a company, as a team or as a driver and crew chief combination. It is something I am exceptionally proud of."

Harrison Cabernet Sauvignon 1999
Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley, California
Critical Acclaim
Wine Enthusiast - "Another huge '99. It is very dark and lavishly oaked, aged in 100% new French barrels. The immediate aroma is of vanilla and toast, while the palate experience is of oak and dry tannins that numb the palate through the finish. There is a core of blackberry fruit that is solid and dense, the result of very low yields. This pricy wine is not drinkable now, unless you're not fussy. If you buy it, plan on aging for at least five years."

About Napa ValleyView a map of Napa Valley wineries
It's hard not to think of Napa Valley when thinking of California wines. The region is, after all, the one that brought world recognition to California wine making. The area was settled by a few choice wine families in the 1960's who bet that the wines of the area would grow and flourish. They were right. The Napa wine industry really took off in the 1980's, when vineyard lands were scooped up and vines were planted throughout the county. A number of wineries emerged, from large conglomerates to small boutiques to cult classics. Cabernet Sauvignon is definitely the grape of choice here, with many winemakers also focusing on Bordeaux Blends. Whites are usually Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc.
Notable FactsWithin the Napa Valley lie smaller sub-AVAs that lend even more character specifics to the wines. Furthest south is Carneros, followed by Yountville, Oakville & Rutherford. Above those two is St.-Helena and finally, just grated an AVA, Calistoga. These areas are situated on the valley floor and are known for creating rich, smooth Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Chardonnay. There are a few mountain regions as well, nestled on the slopes overlooking the valley AVAs. Those include Howell Mountain, Stags Leap and Mount Veeder. Wines from the mountain regions are often more structured and firm, benefiting from more time in the bottle to evolve and soften.
About CaliforniaIt's not rare to see a wine's country of origin listed as "California." A country into itself in the wine world, California makes enough varieties and styles to match many European wine countries. It produces a diverse range of wines that span the quality spectrum.
The most famous of the California wine regions is Napa Valley, and these wines are certainly outstanding – but it's not as broad and diverse as its larger neighbor, Sonoma County. Down south, Santa Barbara's Santa Maria Valley is well-known for its Rhône blends, as well as cool-climate varieties like Pinot and Chardonnay. The Central Coast, the largest California AVA, has many different microclimates that lead to a wide range of wines with many sub-AVAs.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- <img border="0" align = "center" src="/images/Category/Varietal_Red_Wine.jpg" width="750" height="300">Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
