Hi folks, today was a great one as I've had finally the opportunity to taste the famous wines of Midbar Winery made by a very talented winemaker, Ya'akov Oryah formerly from the now closed Asif winery.
Ya'akov is arguably one of the best in his profession when it comes to white wines. Most his wines are unoaked and come from the winery's vineyard grown in the desert surrounding Mitzpe Ramon and Arad in southern Israel. Ya'akov is an observant jew following strictly all the rules of kashrut applying in the winemaking process yet due to personal reasons already discussed on this forum dating back with his Asif winery, the wines don't carry officially a proper kashrut certification. His 2008 wines were made following the shmitta rules of Heter Mechira.
Ehud Kave, a partner and winemaker with the tiny Yikvei Haroey located in Kfar Haroey near Chadera, joined us also for the tasting and I was very positively surprised with the 2 wines he brought over with him, a varietal Cabernet Sauvignon and a varietal Merlot, both aged for 6 months in old french oak barrels. They make as of now about 500 bottles only and their grapes are sourced from different parts of the Galilee region.
I had the pleasure to welcome as well forumite Stacey B and her husband who enjoyed the tasting with us (together with a bunch of marketing guys from Castel, Gvaot, Lueria and Katlav wineries).
Midbar, Semillon/Sauvignon, 2010: A dry white Bordeaux blend of 70% Semillon and 30% Sauvignon Blanc. 20% of the blend was aged for 6 moths sur-lies in new french oak barrels. Light gold, with on the nose lemon peels, guava, apricots, bananas and white pepper with a bit of toasty oak. Medium to full-bodied with on the palate guava, apricots, orange blossom and mandarins, white pepper and a bit of herbaceous notes together with earthy minerals and bracing acidity lead to a long, satisfying finish. 12.5% Abv. I was impressed.
Midbar, Chardonnay unoaked, 2010: Light gold, a nose of golden apples, pineapples and pears. Medium-bodied with on the palate apples, toasted nuts and pineapple, pears and lemon curd with some heat and bitterness on a moderately long finish. The somewhat sour bitterness on the finish put me off a bit. 14% Abv.
Midbar, White 44, 2010: An unoaked blend of 25% Gewurztraminer, 20% Sauvignon Blanc, 20% Chardonnay, 20% Viognier and 15% Semillon. Very pale straw, a beautifully aromatic nose of lychee, guava, Granny Smith green apples and honeysuckle. (very) Slightly off-dry and medium-bodied with on the palate guava, green apples, mango, orange blossom, almonds and a hint of candied citrus peels with some pretty good tannins and bright acidity on a long finish. 13% Abv. Lovely.
Midbar, Orange 44, 2010: One of the winery's most interesting wines, this one is an unoaked blend of 52% Chenin Blanc, 24% Chardonnay and 24% Viognier which was fermented like a red wine with the seeds and the skins. Gold with green-ish reflections, the nose features interesting aromas of green tea, citrus peels and nectarines. Full-bodied, the palate offers notes of orange blossom, roasted almonds, pink grapefruit, nectarines, very nice acidity here giving a good backbone and a surprisingly strong tannic structure showing on a very long finish. A very unique wine.
Midbar, Viognier 2010: An unoaked Viognier, pale gold with on the nose white peaches, apricots and sweet tangerines. Medium to full-bodied with on the palate tangerines, fresh apricots, cantaloupe and a hint of pineapple, nice minerality with bracing acidity and quite a long finish. Beautiful Viognier, extremely well-made.
Midbar, Red 55, 2008: 57% Merlot, 26% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 12 months in french oak barrels. Garnet in color with on the nose red cherries, raspberries and tobacco leaves, full-bodied with on the palate sour cherries, red plums, raspberries with hints of green bell pepper, milk chocolate, very good acidity and mouth-coating tannins on a long finish. 14.5% Abv. Very french in style lacking the typically israeli sweet wood notes, a very good wine.
Yikvei Haroey:
Yikvei Haroey, Merlot 2011: 100% Merlot 6 months in used french oak barrels. Dark garnet, with on the nose jammy raspberries and dark chocolate, full-bodied with on the palate ripe raspberries, blackberries, sweet oak, mediterranean herbs and notes of freshly grounded coffee with nice acidity and mouth-coating tannins on a long finish. Very nice, reminded me a lot of Yarden Merlot Odem 2006.
Yikvei Haroey, Cabernet Sauvignon 2011: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6 months in used french oak barrels. Black cherries, baker's cocoa powder and cherry liquor. Full-bodied with on the palate cherries, red currants and milk chocolate leading to a long mouth-filling finish with big tannins. Very nice wine but not very Cabernet Sauvignon in style, quite pleasant.

At a time when so many schools are under funded and under performing, Cornerstone Schools is creating a new high school, including state-of-the-art classrooms and curriculum. "We feel that we're doing something that has never been done in American education," said CEO Tom Willis. Workers are transforming the old Langston Hughes Academy on Detroit's northwest side and within months young minds will be transformed. This fall the building will house the Cornerstone Charter Health High School. "We're trying to rethink what a traditional school looks like, and so we started with a blank sheet of paper and just said if we started from a student's perspective, what would this school look like?" said principal Michael Griffie. The curriculum will be just as forward thinking as the classrooms will be. The focus is on exposing kids to careers in the health care industry. "We're going to be a college preparatory school, but students will be able to see so many different aspects of the health-related field whether it be physician's assistant all the way to physicians, health care administrators. So, they're going to have exposure to a lot of different aspects within a health care system with our partnership with the Detroit Medical Center," Willis said. The tuition-free school will bring in career professionals or take students to work sites. A blended teaching style means they will combine teachers with technology, and by the way, teachers will not be called teachers. They're managers. They're to support the students. "The Cornerstone model, the Cornerstone way develops the whole child, and we feel that we're going to educate the child to be healthy individuals, both socially, emotionally and physically, and also prepare them for a life that goes much further than high school," said Willis. Cornerstone is enrolling students now for the health high school. You can learn more at the Family Fun Day and Enrollment Fair. It's happening on Saturday, June 16 from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the new location at 19900 McIntyre Street. For more information about the school, visit http://hhs.cornerstonecharters.org.

Who: Attorneys and judges from local bar associations throughout the state of Indiana
What: Attorneys and judges from across the state of Indiana will come together in their respective counties to engage in hands-on community service. From cleaning up local neighborhoods to volunteering at local shelters, attorneys and judges will have the chance to be a part of a new movement in the state's legal community as they participate in the first-ever Annual Day of Service, established by the ISBA Service Committee.
When: Saturday, Sept. 21
Where: ISBA district liaisons will work with local bar associations to coordinate efforts in every county for the Annual Day of Service.
Different activities may include:
• volunteering at a local soup kitchen or homeless shelter
• providing painting or cleanup services for local neighborhoods in need
• assisting the Red Cross or Salvation Army
Why: The ISBA Service Committee, created in 2012, stands for hands-on community service, with the goal to inspire attorneys to get their hands dirty in digging trenches, cleaning up their local parks, adopting streets, building homes, and aiding in disaster relief. While many State Bar committees and sections perform seasonal service activities, both legal and nonlegal, most are not supported by a committee structured to be completely devoted to nonlegal community service, where members of the bench and bar play an active role in improving the physical appearance of serviced communities. Although attorneys throughout the Hoosier State are not strangers to the idea of community service, before now there has never been an organized effort throughout the state that enabled the bench and bar to help their communities outside the realms of the legal world. The ISBA Service Committee is an innovative concept for bar associations and hopes to serve as a nationwide model for direct community service and unifying members of state, local and specialty bar associations, and to stand as a beacon of light for improving the reputation of the legal community as a whole.
An example of what's already planned: The LaPorte County Bar Association will take part in the Luhr Park Honeysuckle Eradication Project. Judge Steve King of LaPorte County suggested this project. Luhr Park is described as a wonderful park and nature preserve where the community can participate in all manner of activities, including nature walks, school field trips, scout programs, bike riding and fishing. You can check it out for yourself at http://www.laportecountyparks.org/luhr.html. The Asian honeysuckle is choking out the indigenous plant life and affecting the ecosystem. There is a movement to eradicate this plant and save the native plant life and ecosystem. Members of the LaPorte County Bar Association will be helping with this eradication and definitely getting their hands dirty, trying to save the park for the community.
For more information on how to get involved: Please contact your local district liaison below or email Catheryne Pully at the State Bar, email@example.com.

When I was a kid growing up, my Dad said so many things that boggled my mind. Then, a little while later when I became an adult, I was amazed at how intelligent my Dad was.
My Dad must have written this: It is truly said that children brighten a home - they never turn the lights off.

text: Zürich Information When you visit Zürich Destination Routes Etihad Offices Facts The City Do & See Dining Essential Information The charming metropolis of Zürich, Switzerland offers first-class quality of life. Zürich is distinguished by its unparalleled selection of stores lining the world famous shopping mile, the Bahnhofstrasse, not to mention its broad choice of leisure activities. Numerous gastronomic establishments in the surrounding region pamper food lovers with all manner of culinary delights. After dark, some 500 bars and clubs provide a wide variety of entertainment. Zürich is also the ideal departure point for all kinds of excursions, such as to the Rhine Falls, a chocolate factory, or the snow and perpetual ice on Titlis Mountain. Facts Population 379,915 Currency Swiss Franc (CHF) 1 = 100 Rappen Opening hours Most shops are generally open Mon-Fri from 9am-6.30pm, while the shops on Bahnhofstrasse are open as late as 7-8pm.

It makes more sense to speak about the two banks rather than the new town/old town split. Niederdorf, on the east bank, is full of shops and cafés, but also home to the twin towers of the Grossmunster and the grandiose architecture of the university. The west bank is the old part of town, which is centred around the Lindenhof area where the streets are characterised by fashion outlets and offices. The beautiful spires of St. Peters Church and Fraumunster church, decorated by Marc Chagall, are nearby as well. The curving Bahnhofstrasse follows the course of the ancient city walls and is one of Europe's most prestigious shopping streets. As Switzerland has cultivated stability and neutrality during both World Wars, the country has built up a reputation for its banking system, which for decades has been one of Zürich's biggest industries. It is also for these reasons that today the stock market in Zürich is the fourth biggest in the world. There is so much to see in Zürich.

The popular cream-filled Twinkie returned to store shelves on Monday months after they disappeared when Hostess filed for bankruptcy.
Twinkies and other Hostess cakes were saved by a pair of private equity firms.
Some shipments of the sugary items have already arrived to Walmart stores, while other Hostess favorites like Ho-Hos and Ding Dongs are expected to return to stores in August.
The new Twinkies will have a shelf life of 45 days. That's nearly three weeks longer than the 26 days the previous owner had stated as the shelf-life the spongy yellow cakes.
The New York Post reported last week that Hostess will start freezing some of its cakes to extend their shelf life. That means that Twinkies would be delivered to stores frozen so retailers can stamp their own expiration dates on the cakes.
The new Twinkies may be a bit smaller than you remember.
The new boxes hitting shelves list the cakes as having 270 calories and a weight of 77 grams for two cakes, or 135 calories and 38.5 grams for one.
Right before it went out of business, the snack cakes' former owner had told the Associated Press Twinkies were 150 calories per cake. Photos of past boxes online also indicate the weight to have been 42.5 grams per cake.
A spokeswoman for Hostess says in an email Monday that the size change was made in "mid-2012" by the predecessor company. That would mean it happened quietly in the months leading up to its bankruptcy, as the company was trying to keep its head above water financially.

The Joy of Dog Fostering
Finding fulfillment, saving lives
Please note comments are moderated. After being approved your comment will appear below.
Submitted by Jessica | December 15 2009 | Permalink
Foster homes are so hard to come by for rescue groups. I urge everyone to foster if they can. I think of it as doing a service for both the dog and his/her future family. My latest foster, Hank, has been with me since August. Raised on a chain in a yard his whole life Hank had severe separation anxiety (he snapped off his canines trying to get out of the crate and almost through himself through a glass door) and storm anxiety. Within 12 weeks Hank was cured of separation anxiety and his storm anxiety is much better. All he needs is a dramamine and some DAP on a bandana. He is fully trained, housebroken, incredibly social, adores kids and is beginning to learn service work. I will cry like a baby when Hank goes to a new home but I know that all the work I have done will ensure he stays in his next home forever, not in the backyard on a chain. Most fosters are not this much work, they usually only need to learn manners and basic obedience. I just happen to do a lot of rehab for anxiety and aggression. Fostering is heartwrenching when you send your boy or girl off to a new home but it's the most rewarding thing you can do for the dog and the new family. Rescues screen, interview and check homes so you can be certain your foster is going to a good home.
Submitted by Tara in Denver | January 11 2010 | Permalink
I have been fostering for 2 years now and own 3 dogs and 1 cat of my own. My husband had many reservations about fostering - mostly that he thought I would begin collecting dogs. Over my fostering time I have had healthy young dogs, elderly dogs, overweight, underweight, scared/shy, un-trained (come to me as "unmanageable"), you name it. When you see how much you help a shy dog learn to 'be a dog', how happy a previously un-manageable dog becomes with a little structure in their life; all of my sadness in letting them go disappears in my tears of joy. Yes, I cry when a foster leaves, but it is happiness of things to come for the dog that I don't have another way to express. My husband asks everytime a foster goes to it's forever home, so when do we get the next one, through his tears. Getting the next one is the best cure for any saddness you may feel when letting a foster move on to it's "real" life. I have nothing else that causes me as much joy as when I look at the pictures of fosters-past, I know all of these dogs are loved members of a family partly thanks to me!
Submitted by Kim - Riverside Ca | January 20 2010 | Permalink
I never thought that I would be able to foster. I did volunteer puppy raising for guide dogs many, many years ago and that was very, very hard, I ended up with both the puppies I raised, one was released from the program at a year and one worked for two years and when she "retired" she was again a part of my life! So I knew I just would never be able to foster, but since I started a part time job at my local pet superstore, I have become friends with our rescue organization that adopts out on the weekends and i have now fostered a total of 3 dogs. And while it is hard when they are living with you, i have 4 dogs of my own, it is even harder when they leave, but as the other posts suggest there is no greater joy than knowing that you did something to make their life a little better and more comfortable until they find that home, I am lucky because the people that have adopted the dogs I have fostered have brought them back into the store to shop! Each and every time I see them my heart swells, to know I played a part in their happy new life! It makes me so proud to have saved this dog and given them a safe home until they found their forever home! It is because of the dog living with me that makes it easier to place them with the RIGHT family, because I can give details to the rescue organization that the local shelter would not know, making the adoptive family more aware of the challenges that may lie ahead...fostering is a truly wonderful experience one that if you can open your heart and home you will be greatly rewarded!

I'm very sad to update this blog post with the news of little Giovanni's death... he died at age 5.. but his legacy lives on... please keep his family in your thoughts/prayers.... he is the second child they have lost to this very unfair disease...
This is Giovanni.. he was born with an immune deficiency disease called NEMO. His only hope for survival was a bone marrow transplant or a cord blood transplant. He waited for months and months, but never found a bone marrow match, finally he was saved by donated cord blood. He is now 18 months old and slowly recovering. His parents started a foundation with the goal to register at least 100,000 people in New England as bone marrow donors.
Yesterday, I had the honor of meeting his parents and cousin and will be working with them to met their goal. There are so many misconceptions about bone marrow donation. Technology has come a long way and it is much easier to give this life saving nectar than it ever was in the past. Long gone are the days of "painful drilling into the bone". Today, the majority of donation can be done through a procedure very similar to giving blood. I strongly encourage all of you to check out the simple procedure and get yourself on the registry.
I know that there are quite a few people from New England who read me and it would be amazing if we could get together and set up some Bone Marrow Drives through your jobs, churches, community organizations and any other medium you can think of.
It is a simple cheek swab and 10 minutes of your time to fill out some medical history. That's it. 1 in 20,000 will be a life saving match, so the more people who sign up, the better. It doesn't cost a cent, but if you can donate anything, it would be VERY helpful to cover the costs of the testing.
Basically, we need space to set up drives. The foundation is insured, so there would be no liability to those who donate that space.
Please, if you can now or in the future help let me know. My email is email@example.com.
Giovanni sleeping soundly yesterday. Thanks to donated cord blood, he is alive and regaining his health. We can all make a difference.
It seems ridiculous to follow this up with a food post, but I will. First of all, I lost 2 lbs last week! I'm very pleased with that. I've pretty much been eating leftovers for the last day and half.
I really like oatmeal with soymilk, blueberries and flax meal. I am going to buy some steel cut oats and give those a try. I've had them before, but it's been a while.
I have mentioned dry frying tofu a lot and have people have asked how I do it.It's really easy, but a well seasoned cast iron pan is imperative. I have not done this in a non-stick skillet, so I don't know it if would work as well.
First, heat the pan to around medium-hi and spray with a thin coating of olive oil or cooking spray. Use a firm or extra firm tofu. This was a firm lite tofu. 7 oz of the tofu only has 100 calories. I slice it very thin, but don't bother draining or pressing it. You can if you'd like.
It's important that your pan is very hot. Lay the tofu in a single layer and sprinkle with some sea salt. Do not touch it. Cook for around 4 minutes, then turn over.
Cook the other side for 3 -4 minutes. That's it. Simple eh?
Here is the finished product. Now, it is fairly bland as is, so I usually marinate it at this point. The tofu will keep in a marinade for several days. It retains it's crispy mouth feel and soaks up the flavors.
It's almost embarrassing to post this sandiwch, but I really enjoyed it. It's lightlife "ham", nayonaise, light italian bread (this is a store-bought bread, 40 calories per slice), mustard, pickles and lettuce. Under 200 calories for the entire sandiwch.
This was some leftover cauliflower soup I blogged about last week. I froze it and wow.. I swear it tasted better than it did when it was first made. Unfortunately, this was a total clean out the fridge soup and I'm not sure if I can re-create the flavors, but I'm going to try because it was so good. 3 cups of the soup had 250 calories. A cooking goal of mine this week is to re-create this soup and write down the recipe.
So.... to end this... here is a schedule of the bone marrow drives in the next week or so. If any of my readers live near PLEASE go and get yourself on the registry. It is just a simple cheek swab and 10 minutes of your time and YOU CAN SAVE A LIFE.
If you don't live in New England and are interested in helping, please contact me. Drives can be set up all over the WORLD. They helped to create the first drive in Italy! How amazing is that?

The League is an American comedy sitcom about fantasy football. The plot of this show revolves around its different characters- main ones are Stephen Rannazzisi as Kevin MacArthur, Nick Kroll as Rodney Ruxin, Paul Scheer as Dr. Andre Nowzick, Jon Lajoie as Taco MacArthur, Katie Aselton as Jenny MacArthur and Mark Duplass as Peter "Pete" Eckhart- a divorced man who likes tricking his gullible friends particularly the characters played by Scheer and Lajoie. The show portrays the life and activities of the people who are into playing fantasy football, according to the director of the show through an interview, the show isn't really about Fantasy Football, it's about the people- who are in a fantasy football league. As Schaffer stated on the same interview, if there's a show about firemen, the probability is that the show wouldn't only show firemen fighting fires and rescuing, at the same time, it would also show their personal lives, growing mustaches and making chilli- The League is no different.
More of like a reality show, than just television episodes, the sitcom enters and narrates the events each character encounters in every episode. The characters vary differently on their characters, for instance, there's Rannazzisi's character Kevin MacArthur, portrayed as an assistant district and Pete's Best friend- a man who has difficulty on competing on the league that he asks his wife, a more knowledgeable character in terms of football.
On the other hand, Kroll's character, Rodney Ruxin is an obnoxious and competitive persona. Then there's Dr. Andre Nowzick, played by Paul Scheer, although rich and successful, this trying-to-look-cool character is still rebuked by his friends. Another gullible character is Jon Lajoie's Taco MacArthur who is Kevin's younger brother, an unemployed pseudo musician who in fact couldn't care less about football. And lastly, Katie Aselton as Jenny MacArthur- Kevin's wife, she's supportive and enthusiastic when it comes to the league, even more than the members actually do- her character is also a portrayal, showing that even women can appreciate men's interest, hence supporting it more than men does.
The show eventually started with men being dominant and relative to the show's genre- talking about the football sport and all; this however is changed when the sitcom opened to a cross gender appeal- making it interesting and entertaining not only for different types of men, but to women as well. Not only does the show promises a fun packed storyline, following the lives of the gang can make you relate, think and understand a given situation through different point of views.

Thanks, Verna. It's been so much for so long. Losing my dad on top of being unemployed for over a year now - and it goes back further than that. The last four years have just been a series of difficult circumstances that have been hard on all levels, one after the other.
Please pray that I will find the help I need.

A personal confession about gender and tech, by @zanytomato
/cc @OnlyGirlInTech
"The biggest sub-problem of the gender bias problem is that so many good, well-intentioned men simply don't..."
...whereas gender bias exists *despite* exposure. This makes people's perspectives on gender particularly gnarly to untangle.
The thing that makes gender bias so much worse than other forms of discrimination/intolerance is that other forms come from lack of exposure

Never underestimate the power of a team with insanely longterm vision, coupled with a healthy, tactical short game.
Most people respect the long game academically, but when most people meet someone who plays the long game, they treat us like we're insane.

Evolution of the Home Coffee Maker
It is amazing to think that 60 years ago the world did not have the internet, smart phones, wi-fi, Facebook, flat screen televisions or… home coffee makers! In the 1950s and 1960s people brewed coffee at home with a percolator. Today there are numerous ways to brew from drip coffeemakers to single-serve brewers to French press. To help you see where home coffee brewing has come from here is a time line of the evolution. Of course we've incorporated BUNN® home brewer evolutions to the list.
Evolution of Home Coffee Makers
1950's-1960's: Percolator
1972: The first drip home coffeemaker is launched by Mr. Coffee®.
1972: The first commercial quality home brewer is introduced by BUNN.
Early 2000's: The first coffee maker with integrated grinder is introduced by Cuisinart®.
Mid to late 2000s: Single serve home brewers grow in popularity with systems such as Keurig® and Tassimo®.
2010: The first BUNN home coffee brewer with an auto-start function is launched and receives SCAA certification.
2012: BUNN introduces a new style of brewing with the trifecta® MB.
PRESENT DAY: Lots of options available to meet the needs of a wide variety of coffee brewing habits!!!
No doubt that this evolution will continue in the future and it is exciting to think that a new method of home brewing could be right around the corner!

The Kilpatrick public corruption trial Monday was a little like buying a suit and getting two pairs of pants that didn't quite match. In this case Kwame Kilpatrick was the suit while the pants were his tailor and a contractor, who told differing stories on the origin of a gratuity for the mayor.Johnson Akinwusi got some unwanted attention Monday morning, but attention from Kwame Kilpatrick is just what Akinwusi was after ten years ago when he paid off five grand worth of suits for hizzoner.Not long after that, Akinwusi partnered with Kilpatrick pal Bobby Ferguson. Their proposal to build a new Heilmann Recreation Center didn't score well, but they still got the city deal. It was worth a cool $7 million.Tailor Larry Alebiosu gave a slightly different account of how Akinwusi and Kilpatrick came together.While Akinwusi said Friday that Alebiosu suggested he write Kilpatrick a letter and pay off his layaway, Alebiosu told me he never suggested a letter. He testified Monday that it was Akinwusi's idea to give the mayor a gift, so Alebiosu suggested making a payment on the mayor's layaway account.Alebiosu, who owns Fashion International in Southfield, said he never gave the mayor free clothes, at least not intentionally. He said the former mayor still owes him money.Detroit city official testifies about blow up with FergusonA city official testified Monday that she felt intimidated by Ferguson, but her co-worker testified that she overreacted and he saw nothing wrong with a deal the feds are calling corrupt.Recreation official LaJuan Wilks testified that one of the worst parts of the Heilmann Recreation Center project was dealing with Ferguson, who she said told her "the only reason you still have this job is because you're black".After her blow up with the mayor's pal, Wilks said she called Tyrone Clifton, another city official working on the project. Clifton testified that Wilks was upset, but he didn't see what the fuss was all about."I didn't think anything about the call that I got from Ms. Wilks," he said outside of court. "I don't believe a civil servant could get fired because of Bobby Ferguson. I don't."Wilks' testimony renews a debate that vexes defense attorneys. They say witnesses continually say they felt threatened, even though they were never explicitly threatened.Kilpatrick attorney Jim Thomas said their feelings and fears ultimately don't matter."If you're willing to infer, first of all, that it happened, and then infer that as a result of that happening somebody was justified in something that they felt that somebody else said and what they said and what they meant. This is America. Where's the evidence?"Speaking of perception, Clifton said he didn't see any problem with the Heilmann deal."Do you feel that the portion of city government that you were involved in... was on the level?" I asked him."Yes," he answered.Why? "We did our due diligence and made our recommendation," he said.Clifton will be back on the witness stand on Tuesday morning.

Comments On Jan 03, 2013:Installed the 4 cell on a DR200SE and shaved nearly 5lbs off this very heavy bike. Noticed no loss in performance over stock even on cold mornings. Held a charge despite being unused and not using a trickle charger for several weeks. I'll definitely be upgrading my other bikes' batteries to Ballistics as they wear out.
Additional Comments On Mar 11, 2014:Got one for my KTM 450EXC about the time that I sold the DR. Had it about 6 months before it started dying after a few starts. I kept it on a quality tender whenever I wasn't going to be riding for a few days. Finally got so bad that it would only start right after coming off the tender. Voltage confirmed my suspicions - 13~V on tender, take it off, in 2 hours its down to 12V, next morning, 11V...
Love the weight but not for a battery that costs 2x as much and lasts half as long.

Comments On Jan 28, 2014:I bought this too replace the stock battery that was still in good shape but didn't have enough juice for cold weather. This ballistic did the trick. Going on almost 2 years without any problems and I run a HID kit and it doesn't seem to phase it.
Was this review helpful?
Comments On Aug 26, 2013:I used the ballistic battery for 3yrs and never had any issues. I left the battery in my 450sxf yr round in the NE climate and it fired my 450 up with zero maintenance. The battery finally did fail year 3 but I think it would of lasted longer if I pulled it for the winter and did some periodic charging. Trying a Shorai now.

Comments On Jul 29, 2013:The cells inside broke something loose causing a rattle which created a short or a loss of continuity. It caused the bike to have intermittent power loss which felt like a fuel or a spark problem. It had caused me to get a DNF in a hare scramble race in Colorado. Voltage metered great when on the stand. I had in my bike for about a year before it failed. Its too expensive to have failed this way. Do not waste your money!

Comments On Jun 28, 2013:I got the 4 cell model by mistake and it didn't last very long. For the bigger bore bikes. Make sure you get the 8 cell battery

Comments On Mar 18, 2013:Battery failed within the first few rides. Caused a race DNF and 600 dollars worth of fault finding labour at the local bike shop. Battery would test with 13 volts but when the bike was running the vibration would cause it to short very breifly but enough to upset the ECU on my KTM. Thought i might have been just unlucky but it seems a few have had the same problem.

Comments On Mar 02, 2013:I bought 2 of these. One for my daughters trx300 and one for my wifes polaris 200 pheonix. The one in the 300 got hot somehow and melted? And the one in the 200 is still doing pretty good. It has been in the quad over a year with no issues. The one in the 300 we are still trying to figure out.

Comments On Jan 13, 2013:The first battery I received eventually failed because of an internal short. Ballistic finally replaced the battery with a warranty battery. They are super light and compact, so that's why I'm sticking with them. I'm just concerned that if the first battery went as quickly and easily as it did that the second one may not be far behind. Overall, Rocky Mountain was top notch in the transaction in both shipping and customer service!

Comments On Jan 02, 2013:This holds it's power longer than anything I have owned. It also shaved about 3 lbs. off my bikes weight. You get what you pay for when it comes to ATV batteries.

Bonus tags for Wisconsin's deer hunting season went on sale last Saturday and only 15 units are completely sold out! Many unites still have hundreds, if not thousands on tags still available. The longer you wait, the harder it will be to get a permit for the area you really want.
Tags are only $5.00 for those 10 & 11 years old and $12.00 for residents and $20 for non-residents.
Good luck and happy hunting!

Tuberculosis (TB) is a contagious bacterial infection that usually affects the lungs. In rare cases, it may spread to other body tissues or organs (extrapulmonary TB).
Symptoms of TB vary and may include fever, extreme fatigue, weight loss, night sweats, and a cough that produces bloody sputum. A cough that slowly gets worse over weeks to months may be the only sign of TB.
Tuberculosis is spread when an infected person coughs or sneezes the bacteria into the air and others breathe it in. A person cannot catch the disease by handling things an infected person has touched.
A person who becomes infected with the tuberculosis bacteria may not have any symptoms. This is called inactive (latent) infection and cannot be spread to others. But the infection can become an active disease (active TB) years after the initial infection. This can occur especially if the immune system of the infected person is weakened. Active TB can be spread to others.
A TB skin test (also called a tuberculin skin test, PPD test, or Mantoux test) or a TB blood test (called an interferon-gamma release assay or IGRA) can help identify people who have ever had a TB infection. Tuberculosis often can be successfully treated with specific antibiotics taken for at least 6 months. A person who does not have symptoms but has a TB test that shows an infection may need antibiotics to prevent active disease. If TB is not treated, it can be fatal.

Every summer kids can improve their reading skills and reduce summer learning loss while having fun. Each year, public library staff develop a wide range of exciting activities around a different theme to help kids enjoy reading.
Kids, 12 and under, who register with their local library for the TD Summer Reading Club receive a poster, stickers and an activity book all free as a part of their reading kit.
You can learn about the success of last summer's reading club by consulting the National Report of Program Statistics 2010.

Lively scenes of children playing in and around water are brought to mind with this year's theme Splash! Celebrate Summer. Building sandcastles at the seashore, fishing off the end of a dock, setting off in a canoe or just splashing around in a local pool are all part of the fun this summer. See our booklist selections.
