Zenato Cresasso 2006 750ml$61.94
Zenato Amarone Della Valpolicella Classico 2009
Zenato - Veneto - Italy - Valpolicella
Despite less than ideal climatic conditions, featuring storms which threatened an otherwise perfect year, most parts of California had an excellent year for viticulture. Chardonnays and Sauvignon Blancs were picked at optimum ripeness, and Californian white wine was just about as good as it could be. Surprises and overcoming difficulties summed up much of the United States' wine industry in 2009, and many of the results from Oregon, Washington State and all over California speak for themselves, with the flagship Cabernet Sauvignon grapes having developed healthy, thick skins and thus plenty of character and distinction. Elsewhere in the New World, South Africa had a very good year in 2009, and wineries across the cape of the African continent are proclaiming it a truly great vintage. In most of Europe, fine weather and punctual ripening periods produced some excellent wines, with many of the best coming out of France's Bordeaux and the surrounding regions. Merlot had an exceptionally good year in France, and wineries are proclaiming that the 2009 Merlot harvest was one of the best in living memory. Indeed, across most of France, ripening was relatively even, and red wine grapes such as Cabernet Franc, Syrah and others were reportedly highly characterful, with plenty of the required tannin levels with which to make high quality wines. Italy, too, had a very good 2009. Piedmont reported extremely favorable conditions throughout 2009, and their signature Nebbiolo grapes were more or less perfect when harvested, having benefited from the slight drop in temperature at the end of their ripening period. Veneto, too, had an enviable year, producing superb Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay wines in 2009.
The Corvina varietal grape is one of Italy's most famous products, and is used in the production of some of the country's most famous and widely admired wine. Amarone and Valpolicella wines use a high percentage of Corvina grapes, and these wines make the most of the grapes' bright crimson color, and richness of sour cherry flavors Because the Corvina grape has a naturally high level of fruit acid, it is perfect for barrel aging This process rounds out the harsher, bitterer aspects of the grape, and produces wonderfully soft, mellow yet complex red wines. Most commonly associated with the region of Veneto, Corvina grapes have, in recent decades, been planted in several New World countries eager to emulate the fine wines found in Italy.
As historically one of the most important regions in the world regarding trade and experimentation, it comes as no surprise to discover that Veneto has always been a well respected and innovative wine region. This area of north-easterly area of Italy benefits greatly from a continental climate tempered by the Alps, and plenty of influence from the Germanic countries it is near to. Veneto is most commonly associated with beautifully elegant white wines, such as those of Soave, and has over ninety thousand hectares under vine. Impressively, within that area, over a third of the vineyards in the Veneto region have been granted official AOC status, and many of the sub-regions and appellations of Veneto have gone on to be world-famous in regards to quality. One such example is Valpolicella, where some of Italy's finest and most complex red wines are produced.
It isn't difficult to understand why Italy is famed not just for the quality of its wines, but also for the vast variety and range of characteristics found in the wines there. The terrain of the country varies wildly, from the lush rolling green hills and valley of Tuscany, to the sun drenched rocky coasts of Sicily, the mountainous and alpine regions of the north, and the marshy lowlands of the east. Italy really does have a little bit of everything. Combine this huge range of landscapes with an almost perfect climate for grape cultivation, and you have a country seemingly designed for viticultural excellence. The results speak for themselves, and it is clear to see that wine has become an inseparable part of Italian culture as a result of its abundance and brilliance. Each village, city and region has a local wine perfectly matched with the cuisine of the area, and not an evening passes without the vast majority of Italian families raising a glass of locally sourced wine with pride and pleasure.

Worn BlanketComments157

The Worn Blanket, commonly known as Worn is a non-member clothing item that is worn on the back. It was formerly sold at Jam Mart Furniture. Greely, the wolf alpha, wears a purple worn blanket. Sir Gilbert the regal tiger alpha, also wears a red worn blanket. Most jammers shorten the "worn blanket" to a 'worn'.
|Clothing Item
|Rare version?
|Released during Beta Times?
|Are there other released variants?
|Yes (two rare Worns)
|N/A, Adventure prize
The Worn Blanket is a thin, ragged blanket with holes in it. It is shown to drape over the Jammer's back when worn. This item comes in nine different varieties.
- The Worn Blanket was first released on October 4, 2010.
- This item was originally called the "Sleek Worn", but was later changed on its second release in 2011 to "Old Blanket". It achieved its current name, "Worn Blanket", in 2012.
- Upon the time of this item's first release, there were only four varieties; upon its second release, three more colors were revealed.
- This item has mistakenly been referred to being a Beta Item, as it was released a month after Beta Testing ended.
- Like the Shark Fin, it has two Rare Versions.
- The first was released at the Leap Year Party on February 23, 2012. This Worn Blanket is light purple.
- The second was released at Jam Mart Clothing for Rare Item Monday on June 9, 2014. This Worn Blanket is a light blue color.
- The second released Rare Version was mistakenly called the Ocean Blue Rare Worn Blanket on the Daily Explorer instead of its proper name.
- This item is currently the most wanted item for non-members.
- Careful! The red and brown worn look almost the same. The red one is worth more, so don't be fooled if a Jammer says the worn they have is red, so Check colors.
- The Black Worn is worth the most.
- The item is popular because it looks good on just about any animal

Every show organizer knows that exhibitors want fresh faces on the floor. Their booths can't simply help them reconnect with old customers. They need to return home from the show with new leads and new potential business opportunities. As show organizers work to attract those new attendees, the Center for Exhibition Industry Research conducted a survey of more than 400 exhibition attendees from 14 industries to get a sense of why they attend trade shows for the first time and what impacts their registration decision-making.
SEE ALSO: What Attendees Want From Exhibitors
First off, the good news: 15 percent of respondents reported their exhibition attendance will increase. While that number may sound small, it still represents a growth opportunity for show organizers who can demonstrate why the action on the show floor can't be missed.
However, these attendees only have so much time on their calendars. Of those who plan to make more trips in 2014, the average respondent plans to attend just four trade shows.
Jeff Tanner, Ph.D., Professor of Marketing, Baylor University, and Nancy Drapeau, PRC, Research Director, CEIR, believe trade show organizers must work to embrace today's socially-driven world.
"Word-of-mouth sources and personal invites hold sway with this target audience," Tanner and Drapeau write.
An email from a colleague, a vendor invitation and word-of-mouth ranked as the top three sources when selecting a new trade show to attend. The reputation of an event was the number one reason that new audience members ultimately make the decision to invest their time and money to attend.
"Factors such as reputation of an event and perceptions of value for the money are likely to be the result or at least in part through social media," Tanner and Drapeau write.
SEE ALSO: Should Trade Show Organizers Be Worried?
Today's prospective attendees are accustomed to trusting peer reviews on products, restaurants and hotels, and that practice extends to trade shows and meetings. They can easily see what past attendees are saying about their experiences on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn. It's essential that show organizers monitor all of this online chatter and work to shape a positive conversation.
Recruiting new attendees means looking in new places, too. For US trade show organizers, it's important to make that word-of-mouth buzz travel much further than normal. There are many prospective attendees waiting in emerging markets in Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Now is the time to outline a strategy that can get attendees around the whole world talking about your next show. Click here for a video from IAEE to see how other show organizers are tapping into the international marketplace.

Mark Richt and Aaron Murray aren't gluttons for punishment.
The final seconds of the Southeastern Conference championship game may live in infamy in Georgia football lore, but the entire 60 minutes is something that even filmmakers Francis Ford Coppola or Martin Scorsese would find gripping.
So days before Georgia began practicing for its 2013 season, both Murray and Richt looked back to 2012 and tuned in to a rebroadcast of the game voted the best in college football last season.
The Bulldogs now want to rewrite the ending.
The 32-28 loss to Alabama remains in the back of the minds of these Bulldogs who remember how close they got to the program's first BCS title game and a shot at Georgia's first national title since 1980.
"We've got a burning feeling," tailback Keith Marshall said.
"When you get close to something, it certainly makes guys feel like, 'Wow. Why not? Why not Georgia?'" said Richt, entering his 13th season.
The Bulldogs, coming off a 12-2 performance, aren't hiding their big goal.
"We want to be in the national championship game," tight end Arthur Lynch said.
"There's only so much you can say, and most people don't like talking about it because we like to show. But it's going to be a great ride," cornerback Sheldon Dawson said. "We're trying to get to Pasadena. That's what our mind is focused on. We don't want to limit ourselves and just stop at the SEC championship. The ultimate goal is to win it all."
In a glitzy YouTube video put out by Georgia, junior receiver Chris Conley put it this way: 'ÄúWe can'Äôt do anything about last year. We can only live in the now and that makes us focus on our one goal and that'Äôs Pasadena. … We have one dream and that'Äôs making it to the national championship in Pasadena.'Äù
The SEC has won seven consecutive BCS national titles, starting in the 2006 season.
Georgia hasn't joined the party, even though the Bulldogs have the most SEC title game appearances of an East team — five since 2002. Florida, Tennessee and South Carolina have combined for six.
The Bulldogs last won the SEC title eight years ago.
"It would mean the world," Lynch said. "We haven't won it since 2005."
Georgia won it in 2002 and 2005. The program trended downward after a Sugar Bowl win in the 2007 season, but the Bulldogs have now won 10 and 12 games the past two seasons.
"Coach Richt is going to always win 10 or 11 games," said Fred Gibson, a wide receiver on that 2002 team. "That's just Georgia. It's consistent. We've just got to turn it around and win that big game."
Even in the Alabama loss, which ended with the clock running out after quarterback Murray's pass was deflected and caught at the 5-yard line by Conley, the Bulldogs were viewed as having gone toe-to-toe with a team that won its third national championship in four years.
"All men want to be respected," Richt said. "I think our players earned more respect on that day. People are still talking about that game. Everywhere I go, not just in the South. So I'm proud of their effort."
For the record, Murray admits he may have been embellishing just a bit when he's said in July that he thinks about the SEC title game loss every night.
"Most nights," he says, coming clean. "About four nights out of the week."
Murray said he watched the game six times, including the rebroadcast that aired in July.
Richt said he watched the game film after the Alabama game and has seen the TV broadcast twice.
"Somewhere along the way you've got to let go of it. You've got to move on," Richt told Bulldogs fans in Duluth in July. "My mom watched it last night and she called me. She's still crying and everything."
Later, Richt said his mother does get emotional about "the Dogs."
Asked if he cried about it, Richt said: "Nah, nah."
Georgia would love nothing better than to have tears of joy after this season.
Georgia players aren't the only ones who see the Bulldogs as legit BCS title contenders.
Georgia was the third most popular response to the question of "Who will win the BCS title this year?" in an ESPN magazine survey of 92 college football players. Of course, Alabama got a whopping 57 percent and Ohio State 17 with Georgia at 10.
Georgia lost seven players off its defense that were taken in the NFL draft but returns nearly its entire offensive lineup, led by Murray.
"I think we've got enough of a talent base to get it done," Richt said. "We've just got to get everybody going in the right direction and playing hard and hopefully staying healthy."
Said offensive guard Chris Burnette: "The past two years I feel like we've tried to get it back on track to where we've shown the country that we are a team that is going to be in the championship mix."
It begins Saturday at Clemson in a much-anticipated top-10 matchup.
"We've hit reset," Murray said. "We've tried not to talk about last season at all. It's over with. We're just excited about this year and this team. We've worked out tails off and we're ready to go."

Kevin Love expects long-term stay with Cleveland
Forward Kevin Love said he is committed to winning an NBA title with Cleveland — however long it takes.
Love plans on a lengthy stay
Kevin Love's phone rang in July and LeBron James asked the All-Star forward if he wanted to play with him in Cleveland.
"I'm in," Love told superstar James.
For the long haul.
Getting used to a new city and new team after being acquired by the Cavaliers in a trade finalized Saturday, Love said he is committed to winning an NBA title with Cleveland — however long it takes.
Love, who didn't make the playoffs during six sometimes-rocky seasons with the Minnesota Timberwolves, can opt out of his contract and become a free agent next summer. But Love, 25, said he intends to stay with James, 29, and Cleveland.
"I'm committed to this team, committed long term to the end goal, and that's to win championships," Love said Tuesday at a news conference.
New Orleans signs Salmons
The New Orleans Pelicans signed forward John Salmons, 34. He ended last season with Toronto and has a career scoring average of 9.4 points.
Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Clippers traded forward Jared Dudley to Milwaukee for forward Carlos Delfino, backup center Miroslav Raduljica and a 2015 second-round draft pick. The Bucks also get a conditional 2017 first-round pick.
Oklahoma City traded 7-foot-3 center Hasheem Thabeet and cash to Philadelphia for a protected second-round draft pick in 2015 and a trade exception.
International basketball
U.S. men beat Slovenia by 30
Anthony Davis of the New Orleans Pelicans scored 18 points, leading the U.S. national team to a 101-71 victory over Slovenia in Las Palmas, Canary Islands, in its final exhibition game before the FIBA World Cup of Basketball.
Klay Thompson, a former Washington State standout who plays for the Golden State Warriors, scored 11 points.
The United States opens World Cup play against Finland on Saturday in Bilbao, Spain.
Donovan's finale is set
Landon Donovan will make his final appearance with the U.S. team Oct. 10 in an exhibition match against Ecuador in East Hartford, Conn.
Donovan, 32, who plays for the Los Angeles Galaxy of Major League Soccer, announced Aug. 7 this would be his final year as a player.
Man U is embarrassed
In his third match as manager of Manchester United, Louis van Gaal oversaw one of the most humiliating losses in the team's illustrious history. The record 20-time English champions bowed to the MK Dons, losing 4-0 to the third-tier team in the second round of the League Cup.
Before the match, Man U officials announced they signed midfielder Angel Di Maria, previously with Real Madrid of Spain, for a $99 million transfer fee.
Di Maria, 26, has a five-year contract.
Meanwhile, Everton of the English Premier League signed striker Samuel Eto'o to a two-year deal. Cameroon international Eto'o, 33, was released by Chelsea of the Premier League. Eto'o has been voted African player of the year four times.
• CBS officials talked about an all-women sports show for more than a year, and they are set to make television history.
"We Need to Talk" will premiere Sept. 30 on CBS Sports Network. The weekly, hourlong, prime-time program on the cable channel reportedly will be the first of its kind.
The panel will feature a core of CBS Sports announcers: Lesley Visser, Amy Trask, Tracy Wolfson, Dana Jacobson and Allie LaForce.
Other contributors include Andrea Kremer and former athletes Laila Ali, Lisa Leslie, Dara Torres, Swin Cash and Summer Sanders.
• German cyclist John Degenkolb of Team Giant-Shimano won the fourth stage of the Spanish Vuelta and Australian Michael Matthews of the Orica GreenEdge team retained the overall lead.
• Former middleweight boxing champion Jermain Taylor, 36, was arrested Friday after a shooting at his home near Little Rock, Ark. Police said a cousin of Taylor's was hospitalized in serious condition with an apparent gunshot wound.

Announcing Native Instruments KOMPLETE 10 and KOMPLETE KONTROL S-Series Keyboards
Native Instruments, the UK manufacturer of hardware and software solutions for both production and performance, has just announced an update to its popular Komplete 10 virtual instrument library. The update includes new instruments such as ROUNDS, POLYPLEX, and THE DEFINITIVE PIANO COLLECTION, which brings the total up to 39 instruments, 12,000 unique sounds, and well over 130GB of virtual instruments and effects.
ROUNDS is an advanced sequence synthesizer that offers up to 16 different synth sounds from models of both two-oscillator analog and FM digital synthesis engines, as well as a unique key switch setup that enables on-the-fly re-sequencing of sounds. A Voice Programmer function allows for the sounds from these two different engines to be arranged in eight blocks with four cells that can each contain a different sound. A Remote Octave feature maps the On/Off assignments of the blocks to the white keys on a MIDI-capable keyboard, and the sound cells to the black keys on the keyboard. Built-in reverb and delay effects with a dedicated LFO expand the sonic possibilities even further.
POLYPLEX is an eight-part drum sampler with extensive randomization and layering controls that can be run from within REAKTOR 5 or the free REAKTOR 5 Player. The sampler provides multiple ways of randomizing different parameters, and each of the eight sound slots can hold four samples for complex layering. The instrument also includes 18 effects, including dynamics, glitch, reverb, and more with the option of applying up to four effects at one time with creative routing schemes. The drum sampler was designed by Josh Hinden and Igor Shilov of Twisted Tools.
THE DEFINITIVE PIANO COLLECTION features three distinct pianos: the MAVERICK for pop, rock, urban, and jazz music; the GENTLEMEN for vintage upright sounds; and THE GRANDEUR for concert grand piano sounds. Each piano includes 18 velocity zones with nine velocity layers for key releases. The piano collection was created in partnership with Uli Baronowsky of Galaxy Instruments.
Also exciting is the announcement of a new set of production keyboard controllers to be released on October 1, 2014: the KOMPLETE KONTROL S-SERIES.
Available in 24-, 49-, and 61-key variations, the S-Series all feature semi-weighted Fatar keybeds with aftertouch and a push-button rotary encoder unified library browser system that allows you to search for sounds across all KOMPLETE instruments by keyword or tag. The keyboards also feature a technology called Native Map that will automatically map the instrument parameters of each KOMPLETE instrument to the keyboard according to the Native Instruments in-house mapping design.
One feature that makes the new keyboards especially fun is the integration of LED keybed lighting, called the Light Guide, which can be used to identify drum cells, phrases, and key switches, as well as notes in a defined scale or the notes being played in an arpeggio.
For performance, all three keyboards include two multi-purpose touch strips for pitch and modulation control according to various modulation curves, an integrated scale map, a chord mode for building complex harmonies, and an arpeggiator with control over direction, rate, rhythm, patterns, and variations.
If you want to use the keyboard with third-party virtual instruments, Native has even included MIDI Controller editor software that unlocks the full functionality of the keyboard, such as configuring touch strip behavior, keyboard splits, custom templates, and visual feedback using the Light Guide.

Jennifer Hudson - Pocketbook ft. Ludacris
Artist: Jennifer Hudson
Featuring: Ludacris
Producer: Timbaland and Jim Beanz
Album: Jennifer Hudson
Avg Rating: 2.9 ( 30 votes )
Everyone knows Jennifer Hudson as an American Idol runner-up and an Oscar-winning actress (for her role in Dreamgirls), but what everyone has wanted to know for months now is, where is her debut album? Well, on September 30 that question will be answered in full. On the follow-up to her first single, Spotlight, the Chicago native turns away all the men who want to take advantage of her, warning them to leave before she hits them with her Pocketbook. Speaking up for the fellas, Ludacris shows he's still the same freak as he was in his What's Your Fantasy days (and is willing to take that paperback to the head). Produced by Timbaland and Jim Beanz and written by Keri Hilson's songwriting team, the Clutch, Pocketbook might have audiences reaching for their wallets and purses come the end of the month.
