Cryans Ready For GOP Challenger
LACONIA — Joe Kenney of Wakefield — the winner of Tuesday's Republican primary race for the District 1 Executive Council seat — will face the lone Democrat Michael Cryans of Hanover in the general election on March 11. Cryans was unopposed in the Democratic primary.
Born and raised in Littleton, Cryans graduated from Springfield College and, after a spell teaching at Littleton High School, joined Littleton Savings Bank as a trainee and ultimately ended his career in banking as senior vice-president of Dartmouth Banking Company. He spent a decade self-employed, providing financial counseling to small businesses and working families. Since 2003 Cryans has served as director of Headrest, a substance abuse and recovery facility in Lebanon. A long distance runner, Cryans twice set the fastest time for a New Hampshire resident competing in the Boston Marathon.
For the past 18 years Cryans has served on the Grafton County Commission alongside the late Ray Burton, who held the Executive Council seat in District 1 continuously from 1981 until his passing last November. The two became close friends and colleagues and in 2012, Burton, a Republican, endorsed Cryans, a Democrat, for re-election to the Grafton County Commission.
"I'm not trying to fill Ray Burton's shoes," Cryans told officials of the State Employees Association. "I'm just trying to do the best I can. I don't know that anyone can be as accessible as Ray," he continued. "I have a phone, e-mail, but he was remarkable."
Cryans enjoys strong support from the New Hampshire Democratic Party, which with three of the five seats on the Executive Council considers his candidacy an opportunity to expand its majority to four-to-one. Last week he was endorsed by nine former state senators who represented parts of Executive Council 1, including two — Ralph Hough of Lebanon and Mark Hounsell of Conway — who after serving as Republicans became Democrats.
According to statements of receipts and expenditures filed with the New Hampshire Secretary of State, Cryans has raised $50,152 from more than 300 donors, both the most of the four candidates in the field. Without a primary opponent, Cryans has spent $2,063 and has a balance of $48,089 in hand for the general election campaign, which begins in earnest tomorrow.
The general election will be held on March 11, town meeting day across New Hampshire.

Boothby learned how to leverage seat on Executive Council to help constituents from the master, Burton
LACONIA — Although some consider the Executive Council, the first and last institution of its kind among the 50 states, the vestigial tail of the body politic, Christopher Boothby is among those for whom it is a vital organ of New Hampshire government, whose five members ensure that the executive departments and agencies remain responsive and accountable to the people.
Boothby, a Meredith resident, is among three Republicans vying to succeed his former mentor, Ray Burton who passed away in November after representing District 1 for 34 of the past 36 years. He will face Joe Kenney of Wakefield, who spent 14 years in the Legislature and was the GOP candidate for governor in 2008, and Mark Aldrich of Lebanon, a former congressional aide, in the primary election on Tuesday, January 21.
"This is my opportunity to give back," Boothby said of his candidacy during a recent interview at The Daily Sun. "I have the time, the resources and a supportive wife." Describing himself as "uniquely qualified," he noted that he served on the Belknap County Commission for 12 years, two of which he chaired the New Hampshire Association of Counties. With his wife Maren he owns and operates Boothby Therapy Services of Laconia, a firm with 45 full and part-time employees that provides occupational and speech therapy services to school districts. "I am prepared from a perspective of personal life experience, business experience and government experience," he said.
As one of many interns groomed by Burton, Boothby learned how executive councilors leverage their authority over appointments and contracts to serve their constituents. He recalled that Burton logged requests and complaints from constituents on three-by-five cards, which he always carried with him, and often had his interns address the issues with the appropriate state department or agency. "They would follow up because of Ray's leverage," he said.
Tailoring his message to Burton's legacy, Boothby casts himself as an advocate. "State government runs on money," he began, "and in order to get money, department heads have to get my vote and to get my vote I'm going to make sure they are responsive to constituents' needs. You're going to have to actually return my calls," he said. Boothby also learned that public service is about "showing up," adding that "they called Ray because he was someone who would follow up and get results. If I show up," he continued, "it means state government shows up as well."
Apart from constituent service, Boothby counts economic development as a top priority. "That means transportation issues, health care issues, work force skills and other education issues," all of which fall among the responsibilities of different executive departments and agencies. "Laconia is going to have to ride to the rescue of Laconia," he acknowledged, "but I can help by getting state government out of the way and working for the community, but I don't have a magic wand. As your advocate, I will help you find a way."
The winner of the Republican primary will face Democrat Michael Cryans of Lebanon, a Grafton County Commissioner, in the general election on March 11, town meeting day.

Heroin said found on man found slumped over in store parking lot
LACONIA — A Canterbury man was ordered held on $1,000 cash-only bail for heroin possession after police found him slouched over in his car while parked in the Vista Foods parking lot off South Main Street.
Police said Tyler Harriman, 22, of New Road in Canterbury faces one count of driving under the influence of alcohol and one count of heroin possession.
City police said they received a phone call about a man who was alone in his car and was not alert.
Affidavits said officers smelled alcohol and Harriman allegedly failed a field sobriety test and blew at .17 on the portable breath test. He was taken to Lakes Region General Hospital and two blood samples were taken.
Police conducted a property search on his car and found a spoon with some residue and several syringes.
When asked, Harriman allegedly told the arresting officer he was a heroin user.

Newfound board splits over following recommendations of budget committee
by Thomas P. Caldwell
BRISTOL — The Newfound Area School Board split its vote on Jan. 13 when it came time to decide which warrant articles to support at the Feb. 1 deliberative session, with the majority opposing the budget that will go before the voters. The board also was closely divided over the article to hire a school resource (police) officer and, failing to attain a majority, goes on record as opposing the position it originally voted to create.
Last week, the Newfound Area School District Budget Committee reduced the proposed 2014-2015 operating budget from the school board's $20,310,865 figure to $20,167,997, eliminating guidance positions at the elementary and high schools, cutting $5,000 from a proposed stipend at the middle school, reducing the appropriation for legal fees by $9,999, and cutting $4,674 in other areas. It is the budget committee's recommendation that goes before the voters during the annual school district meeting.
The budget committee also opposed the newly negotiated collective bargaining agreement with the Newfound Area Teachers Association which provides for two percent cost of living increases in addition to the "step" increases on the pay scale for the first two years and a 2.5 percent COLA plus step increases in the third year. The agreement also would provide a two percent increase in co-curricular stipends in the first year of the three-year contract, with "significant" change in the language regarding authorized leave.
The cost increases in the teachers' contract would amount to $277,225 in the first year, $271,747 in the second year, and $312,479 in the third year.
This year, the entire school board was to serve as the district's negotiating team but New Hampton member Paul Rheinhardt could not attend the sessions and, during Monday's vote, he sided with the budget committee in opposing the contract. The other six members of the seven-member board, which had constituted the negotiating team for the district, supported the agreement.
The budget committee also had voted to oppose the $51,840 appropriation to hire a school resource officer who would be part of the Bristol Police Department but would serve in the district schools. The school board had placed the article on the warrant but, after the budget committee's vote, only Chair Vincent Paul Migliore of Bridgewater, Suzanne Cheney of Alexandria, and Jeff Levesque of Groton voted to support the article. Vice-Chair Ruby Hill of Danbury, Lloyd Belbin of Bristol, and Rheinhardt opposed the article, while Don Franklin of Hebron abstained from the vote. Because there was no majority, the warrant article will show that the school board did not recommend it.
After discussing the budget article, Rheinhardt and Belbin voted to go along with the budget committee's proposal but the rest of the board voted to oppose it because of the positions that had been eliminated.
During the public comment period, several people questioned the guidance cuts. Although the school district still would have more guidance positions than the state requires, Kathleen Connor of Hebron, a guidance counselor herself, said the state's minimum standards do not address student needs. Saying she was not concerned about her own position — "I'm very adaptable," she said — she was concerned about the students and what was best for them.
Fred Robinson, a paraprofessional educator at Newfound Regional High School, criticized the district's plan to replace para support with teacher support, eliminating four para-educators in Title I programs and 14.2 paras in special education while adding special education teachers. "So far, we've heard nothing about what the actual plan is," he said. "Has it been tried in other school districts? Is there any record of success? We only hear about staff reductions and money."
Because the Newfound Area School District operates under the Official Ballot Act, the school board at the Jan. 13 meeting also set the default budget that will take effect if the voters turn down the proposed 2014-2015 budget. The default budget is based on the previous year's approved budget, with adjustments for contractual obligations, debt service, and one-time items.
Business Administrator Michael Limanni said this year's default budget figure also addresses some discrepancies he has found with the way the default budget has been presented in the past. The official budget forms that the district has to file include federal grants and food service funds but those have not been included as part of the budget presented in past years.
Last year's general fund appropriation was $20,381,259 but the budget also included $636,249 for food service and $1,111,827 funded by federal grants, for a total of $22,065,040. The proposed budget of $20,167,997 will have additional food service $609,615 plus $1,024.957 in anticipated grants.
Limanni calculated the default budget to be $22,264,557, which the school board approved.
The default budget is larger than both the school board's and the budget committee's proposals because of the cuts that have been proposed. All three fall within the school district's tax cap which allows for an additional $420,272 in spending in order to stay within a two percent increase in the tax levy.
The school board had asked Limanni to provide an explanation to the voters of how the tax levy differs from budgeted appropriations. Many taxpayers, including members of the school board, were dismayed to see their tax bills increase last year when they had expected to see them go down.
During school and municipal annual meetings, voters often ask what the tax impact of their spending will be. Typically, they are told that, if they approve a particular item, it will add a certain amount to their tax bills, usually expressed as dollars per $1,000 of assessed valuation. They may be told that a building project will add $1 to the tax rate, or $200 for a home assessed at $200,000.
Limanni explained the reasons why that might not turn out to be true. First, he said, the tax levy will vary by town, based on the number of students residing in that community. Using figures from 2011 through 2013, he said Alexandia's ADM-R (average daily membership-residence) increased from 18.74 in 2011 to 19.60 in 2012, a .86 percent increase, to 20.35 in 2013, a .75 percent increase. During the same period, Bridgewater's ADM-R dropped from 8.65 to 7.48 (-1.17 percent), then rose to 8.18 (.70 percent). So Alexandria's portion of the school assessment has steadily increased while Bridgewater's has fluctuated.
Also affecting how much each town pays is the amount of the state's Equitable Aid Grant, which also varies from year to year based on a formula for calculating that aid. Alexandria's aid went up, resulting in less money to be raised by taxation, while aid to Bristol, Danbury, Groton, and New Hampton was reduced, leaving the towns to pay more to the district. Bridgewater and Hebron qualify for no state aid.
A third reason that the tax impact of the budget may be different from projected is that there is a difference between what was budgeted and what was spent. If there is an unexpanded fund balance at the end of the fiscal year, the school district may retain a portion of that surplus, or return it to the towns to reduce taxation.
The other major factor affecting the property tax rate, Limanni said, is the town's assessed valuation of the individual's property. In his written explanation, which will be placed on the SAU website, Limanni states, "If your town has been allocated a $500,000 share of the local education tax, and your neighbor's house has gone down in value while your own home has gone up in value (because the ice storm knocked down the trees that were blocking your view of the lake), then you could actually see an increase in taxes while your buddy just down the road is seeing a decrease."
Limanni noted that other factors affecting the tax bill include the county tax assessment, "but those are the four main reasons your taxes might go up even if the budget goes down".
The school board asked Limanni to review the allocation of last year's unexpended fund balance after questions at the Jan. 10 budget hearing revealed some confusion about the amount that can be retained by the school district. New Hampshire law allows a district to retain 2.5 percent of the net assessment but there was disagreement over whether that includes the whole budget. While the N.H. Department of Revenue Administration has agreed that the $350,000 retained was appropriate, Limanni will clear up how the DRA defines "net assessment" to make sure the district accurately calculates that amount.

I wonder if these Gun Control People realize that Many Many More people are killed by Automobiles every year than those from a firearms.
It is a proven fact that 30 Percent of all head on collisions fatalities are in results of suicides. And that doesnt count those that are killed by pure recklessness.
So if they want to take thier vehicles to the scrap metal yards and start walking they would make a bigger impact than wasting thier time on Gun Control..

"There are 3,700 named streams and 15 major rivers that meander through 191,000 miles of Texas landscape. These vastly important aquatic ecosystems play a major role in protecting water quality, preventing erosion, and providing nutrients and habitat for fish and wildlife. Along the way, water that eventually flows into seven major estuaries, supports over 212 reservoirs, countless riparian habitats, wetlands, and terrestrial areas. Each year Texas rivers and streams provide recreational opportunities to millions of Texans and visitors from all over the world.
The Texas River Guide provides river enthusiasts with an ever growing source for internet based information related to Texas Rivers. However, rivers are a natural resource that can be dangerous. When planning to recreate on rivers your individual skill level or the skill level of the least experienced person in your river party should dictate the level of river activities you should participate in."

A Houston based non-profit organization associated with the Federation of Fly Fishers and dedicated to the promotion of fly fishing education, conservation, and outdoors ethics.
The Texas FlyFishers of Houston was founded in 1976 by a group of avid fly fishermen. Their objectives then, as ours are now, were to share their knowledge of fly fishing with one another and others who wanted to learn, to help in conserving our natural resources, to enjoy the camaraderie of fly fishing, and to have a good time doing it.
We have an active club with a full range of activities. There is something for everyone, from beginner to expert, from the very young to those who remember when all fly rods were made of cane, and for all skill levels, from those who haven't yet held a fly rod to those who can cast more fly line than you can buy.
Attendance varies between 50 and 70 each month.

+ - Trolling Al Qaeda... for peace?->
Submitted by The Mister Purple
The Mister Purple (2525152) writes "There is a small initiative underway to combat Islamic militant recruiting on the Internet... by trolling them. According to this article:
So does this mean that I'm promoting peace when I post YouTube comments?"
The program, called Viral Peace, seeks to occupy the virtual space that extremists fill, one thread or Twitter exchange at a time. Shahed Amanullah, a senior technology adviser to the State Department and Viral Peace's creator, tells Danger Room he wants to use "logic, humor, satire, [and] religious arguments, not just to confront [extremists], but to undermine and demoralize them." Think of it as strategic trolling, in pursuit of geopolitical pwnage.
So does this mean that I'm promoting peace when I post YouTube comments?"

Make Her Blush - Valentine's Day Gift Guide
Valentine's Day. It's the fourteenth day in February that allows couples to celebrate their love, where single people are made even more aware of their status, and more importantly, when people muster up the courage to take a chance on love.
The historical significance of St. Valentine and the day commemorated in his memory is shrouded in mystery. It is most commonly believed that Roman Emperor Claudius II, decreed and forbid young men from holy matrimony, deeming that they should be alone to become better, more loyal soldiers of the state. It is said that St. Valentine defied the emperor in the name of love and continued to perform marriages for young lovers in Rome. Upon discovery of his treason, St. Valentine was put to death.
If his legend is indeed true, it's only fitting that we celebrate our loves or even take a chance on love, just as St. Valentine did for young Roman lovers.
Explore our Valentine's Day Gift Guide and see what gifts would make you blush. From romantic hues of the setting California sun in our Moon Rosé Collection, our Pretty in Pink strings of diamonds, rock 'n roll chic Classic Rock Collection, to the ultimate Promise bracelet, we have gifts to celebrate the special days and the every days in between.

Our weather is certainly wintery now. We have had snow twice now. And it has been windy and bitterly cold. Ok, now I am ready for spring! Enough of this! But it is nice to snuggle up under a big blanket and read a good book.
Until next time, happy trails to you...

Thanksgiving is Coming
Ok, this is really not a Thanksgiving card but I thought this may be a good time to post it. Actually I made it last winter! I colored her with my Copics and then fussy cut her out. I then mounted her on cream cardstock and then on a piece of black cardstock with cream behind that. I used gold embossing powder to heat set the words.
Until next time, happy trails to you!!!

Holly Jolly
The other day Laura Bassen showed a card like this and I loved it! Her colors are always spot on and of course I didn't have the colors she used but instead I used some of my Distress inks so I could make my version of her card. I like how it came out. I started by sponging on my trees and then took it to my Big Shot and cut the Holly Jolly word out of the colored trees. Saving all the little pieces, I reassembled and then decided to add a few little stars. You can't see it but I put a touch of Wink of Stella on the stars. Also, even though it does not look like it, the stars are the same colors as the trees. I hope you like it!
Until next time, happy trails to you!

For Jean
A couple of weeks ago I posted one of my fall cards with leaves. My friend Jean had seen all of the ones I had made and this one was her favorite. She made me promise to put it on my blog and then I forgot. So, Jean, better late than never!
We have had absolutely beautiful weather in Nebraska this fall. The trees are so pretty and the sky is so blue and the temperatures are in the high 60's and low 70's. I do realize this is all going to come to a crashing stop but for now, we are sure enjoying it! It was so nice all of last week that Lucy and I walked 81,753 steps and 37.29 miles! Yup, I have started wearing my FitBit again. I was using my phone but the FitBit is more accurate.
So we are heading out for a walk now so until next time, happy trails to you!!

Yesterday my grandson, Justin was here and we cleaned out my garage. Boy did it need it! We pulled out everything and put it in the driveway and sorted through stuff. We were able to toss a lot of junk and rearrange things. Sure looks nice in there now! We had such a nice day to do it and today is cold and rainy, so I would say we did it just in time!
Since it is such a miserable day, I think I will stay in and stamp and catch up on my reading. I hope it gets nice later or at least quits raining so Lucy and I can go on our walk. We have been doing really well at getting our 10,000 steps in every day!
Until next time, Happy trails to you!!!

Toledo is a city in the U.S. state of Ohio and the county seat of Lucas County. Named after Toledo, Spain, it is located on the western end of Lake Erie, on the Michigan border. It is the principal city in the Toledo Metropolitan Statistical Area. In the 2000 census, the city proper had a population of 313,619, fourth-largest in the state. According to the US Census, the metropolitan area had a population of 650,955, while the Combined Statistical Area had a population of 711,952. Residents of Toledo are usually referred to as Toledoans. Toledo is known as the Glass City because of its long history of innovation in all aspects of the glass industry: windows, bottles, windshields, construction materials, and glass art, of which the Toledo Museum of Art has a large collection.
Several large glass companies have their origins here. Owens-Illinois, Owens Corning, Libbey Glass, Pilkington North America (formerly Libbey Owens Ford), and Therma-Tru have long been a staple of Toledo's economy. Other off-shoots and spinoffs of these companies also continue to play important roles in Toledo's economy. Fiberglass giant Johns Manville's two plants in the metro area were originally built by a subsidiary of Libbey Owens Ford. Many other companies that service the glass industry also began in Toledo, such as Toledo Engineering and Glasstech.

I have an ARM Samsung Chromebook running Ubuntu (chrUbuntu 12.04).
What is the easiest way to run some code in ARM 'privileged' state? I'm not looking for sudo, I'm looking for ARM processor mode of Supervisor, IRQ, FIQ, etc. Someplace I can probe/modify the coprocessor registers.
It's easy to get to priv mode: just do an SVC call. The question is, what is the easiest way to get some of my own code plugged into the OS so it gets called on a certain SVC call?
I'm not much of a Linux hacker. Mostly I'm looking for general pointers on the easiest general direction (rebuild the kernel? grab some driver source and hook in a modified driver? some easy command line option to run something priv?), then I'll go from there.
In case my above approach makes no sense and there is an easier way, my overall goal is:
- write some low level assembly routines
- see how they perform with various hardware configurations of the Cortex-A15 core
Thanks in advance,

Hi: 10° Lo:6°
By Harriet Ernstsons Wednesday 20 February 2013 Updated: 20/02 14:30
A SCHEME to take on 50 new apprentices in 50 days has reached the halfway mark thanks to a town centre coffee shop.
Tony Taylor, owner of Muffin Break in the Kingfisher Shopping Centre, officially signed up to the Redditch Borough Council run scheme this week, taking on Tommy Williams in the 25th role since the project began at the end of January.
He told the Standard he felt apprentices gave young people who did not want to go to university a chance to get a career, as well as helping his business by keeping overheads low and taking on staff who were likely to stay there rather than use it as a stop-gap.
"It gives them something in life to aim for rather than kicking a tin can outside the job centre on a Friday afternoon," Mr Taylor said.
"Some people have been looking for jobs for three or four years and they can't get anything then when they get into a job, their self esteem rises overnight.
"The scheme is helping kids out and helping local kids to get employed as well as helping me out with running costs and at the end of the apprenticeship I know they are going to stay and carry on and develop as people.
"It's contributing to Redditch and to everybody involved and I would highly recommend it to other employers."
Council leader Bill Hartnett said: "This is great news for Redditch that we are halfway to our target. I see it as a win, win, win situation - the young person gains transferable skills, the employers get a young keen employee and the borough as a whole up-skills its workforce.
"I am most grateful to all employers who have signed the pledge. We must strive forward now to reach our target of 50 apprentices, I encourage people to drop into our temporary Apprentice Shop in the Kingfisher Centre to learn more about the opportunities apprenticeships can bring and the range of apprenticeships available."
Chief executive Kevin Dicks added it was great to see companies supporting the scheme.
"I am delighted the council is supporting this and I hope more businesses come forward to help us reach our target."

Ted Siefer's City Hall: Mayor's surgery raises questions about running city hall
"Ted will be involved, he just won't have a public schedule at this point," she told me. "He plans to engage with city department heads and leaders."
She added Gatsas will work from home for the time being.
O'Neil continued, "I'm very disappointed in how this whole thing has been handled. I spoke to the mayor Monday night, and there was no indication that he was having major surgery (the next day). I'll give him that maybe he didn't know what that would lead to. But there has been no communication between his office as to what's going on. The board was informed by press release."
O'Neil has been in touch with the City Solicitor's Office in an attempt to figure out what the city charter and state law call for; there's been no determination at this point, he said.
The solicitor is likely to face similar questions when the Board of Mayor and Aldermen meets Tuesday.
"He's doing great," she said. "He's moving, he's up and walking. He's got his sense of humor, and he's got his quick wit."
- - - - - - - - --
On its face, the judge's ruling this month in Levasseur v. Girard would seem be a clear rebuke to the alderman. The judge granted the motions from radio host Rich Girard and the city to dismiss the suit brought by Alderman Joe Kelly Levasseur, who had asserted that the parties had overstepped the bounds of the state's Right to Know Law by requesting and releasing large volumes of his email. And yet, Levasseur last week was running something of a victory lap.
As Deputy Solicitor Arnold himself put it in an email: "As a general rule, an email that is sent to or from a city email address (i.e. goes through a city server) concerning an official function of the city is a governmental or public record."The implication of the ruling is that the aldermen could set some rules and restrictions on how the city complies with right-to-know requests without running afoul of the law. And it appears that some aldermen have plans to propose as much in the near future, Levasseur among them.
For the sake of his heart, it's probably just as well that the mayor won't be attending Monday's school board meeting. The board will likely engage in some pretty passionate debate about some issues that have been close to his, well, you know.
Gatsas has long advocated such policies, arguing the city's highest paid employees owe more to Manchester than their 40 or so hours a week. Then there's the no-nit policy. The Coordination Committee, somewhat unexpectedly, voted to largely back the recommendation of the city's health authorities to end the district's policy of sending home immediately students found with lice or nits. Instead, the new policy would give nurses and principals more discretion over whether to send a child home - and in allowing the child back into school so long as treatment has begun.

Instead, the want an estimated two million people in England to be considered for the £6,000 operation.

Apple sets iOS 7 release date
During today's iPhone event, Apple announced the official release date for iOS 7, the next generation of the company's mobile operating system. Originally unveiled at WWDC in June, iOS 7 includes a "stunning new user interface" that marks a dramatic visual departure from every prior version of iOS, sporting refined typography, with new animations, layered effects, and transparency.
During the event, Senior VP Craig Federighi took the stage to quickly demonstrate several of the major new features in iOS 7, including the new lock screen and "harmonious layout" of the home screen, along with the new Control Center, Notification Center, and multitasking view. He also highlighted how Siri can search Twitter, Wikipedia, and perform inline web and photo searches, and showed off the new camera filters and mode features and the new "share sheet" with AirDrop support for sharing items with other nearby iOS devices over a Wi-Fi connection. Federighi highlighted the new iTunes Radio feature as well, describing it as "the best way to experience new music."
iOS 7 is compatible with the iPhone 4 and later, fifth-generation iPod, iPad 2, iPad with Retina Display, and iPad mini. It will be available for download as a free update via iTunes and OTA update on September 18th.

Grape expectations
Here's a taste of what's to come at Winnipeg Wine Festival
With the Winnipeg Wine Festival just a month away, it's time to start planning which events you'll be attending leading up to the weekend's main public tastings.
This year, ancillary tastings (dubbed Wine Down events) get going April 23. Gone is the media grape stomp, replaced by the Hollywood Premiere Event at the Metropolitan Event Centre and sponsored by Wines of California. Local celebs will be "dressed to the nines" for this red-carpet event, which will feature California wines front and centre as well as a screening of Casablanca. The event starts at 6; tickets are $40.
The pace picks up the Sunday before the following weekend's public tastings. World of Wine kicks off the week; taking place April 27 from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. at Niakwa Golf and Country Club, it features wines from all corners of the globe. Tickets are $75.This event is sold out.
Wine lovers have two choices on April 28. The Keg on Garry Street hosts the Penfolds Luxury Wine Dinner starting at 6 p.m., and will feature six courses paired with some of the Aussie winery's best wines, including a few back vintages. Tickets are $100. This event is sold out.
Feeling more like a taste of La Dolce Vita? Head to Bellissimo Restaurant on Waverley Street for the always-popular Joe's Italian Wine Night. Joe Aiello of 102.3 Clear FM plays host to a night of Italian food and wine pairings spread throughout the restaurant. Things get underway at 6:30 p.m.; tickets are $60.
Tuesday tastings get underway with a taste of wines from closer to home. The Wines of Canada VQA tasting runs from 5-7 p.m. at the Met, featuring wineries from both B.C. and Ontario. Meet folks from both of Canada's main wine regions -- Sandhill's Howard Soon, for example, is almost always on-hand to pour and talk wine. Tickets are $40.
Hop over to Blaze Bistro at the Delta Winnipeg afterwards for the Bubbles in Blaze event, which gets going at 7 p.m. Sparkling wines from around the globe will be paired with hors d'oeuvres; tickets are $40.
Winnipeg winos will have to choose between a sit-down dinner and a walkabout tasting on April 30. The former will feature wines from Wayne Gretzky Okanagan Estate, and gets underway at 6 p.m. at the Exchange Restaurant and Beer Market at the MTS Centre. No, the Great One won't likely be in attendance, and yes, tickets are $99.
Prefer something more casual? Check out the Party's Outback event at the Qualico Family Centre in Assiniboine Park. Sponsored by Wine Australia, this event gets underway at 7 p.m., and gives attendees a sneak peek at a bunch of wines from Down Under, some of which will be poured at the weekend tastings (at which Australia is the theme region). Tickets are $40.

(Okanagan Valley, B.C. -- $14.99, Liquor Marts and beyond)
This stalwart B.C. white wine continues to be one of the benchmarks for the grape in our province. Spice notes (think clove) are pronounced on the nose, with apricot, lychee, and mandarin orange aromas in there as well. It's medium-bodied and fairly viscous, with spice and ripe marmalade-ish orange fruit flavours working well together. While technically a dry wine, a hint of sweetness works well with the splash of acidity. Highly drinkable on its own, but will stand up to mild to medium Thai or curry dishes. Four stars out of five
(Crémant de Bourgogne, France -- around $22, private wine stores)
A blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Gamay grapes, this bubbly is a pretty pinkish orange in colour, with crisp strawberry notes on the nose as well as red-apple skin, peach and slight toastiness. Dry, light-bodied and fresh, the Cave de Lugny delivers strawberry and raspberry flavours as well as that light toasty note and a hint of creaminess on the palate. Made in the traditional "Champagne" method in the south of Burgundy, it's a solid bubbly for the price on its own or with shellfish, light cheeses or salads. 3-½ stars out of five
(New York State -- $18.75, Liquor Marts and beyond)
New York State is a wine-producing region that's quite under-represented in our province. Like Ontario's Niagara Peninsula, they do well with cooler-climate varieties such as Riesling, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, etc. Very pale in colour, the Brotherhood is very light and delicate, with red-berry aromas as well as white pepper, plum and some savoury spice. This very light, fairly complex Pinot brings raspberry tea, cherry, graphite, blueberry and plum flavours, with light, soft tannins. A wine for milder seafood dishes, pork tenderloin or medium cheeses. Three stars out of five
