Earth First! is a radical environmental advocacy group[1] that emerged in the Southwestern United States in 1979. It was co-founded on April 4, 1980[2] by Dave Foreman, Mike Roselle, Howie Wolke, Bart Koehler, and Ron Kezar.[3]
There are Earth First! groups in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Netherlands, Belgium, Philippines, Czech Republic, India, Mexico, France, Germany, New Zealand, Poland, Nigeria, Slovakia, Ireland, Italy, and Spain.[4]
Inspired by Rachel Carson's Silent Spring, Aldo Leopold's land ethic, and Edward Abbey's The Monkey Wrench Gang, a group of activists composed of environmental activist Dave Foreman, ex-Yippie (Youth International Party) Mike Roselle, Wyoming Wilderness Society representatives Bart Koehler and Howie Wolke and Bureau of Land Management employee Ron Kezar pledged, "No Compromise in Defense of Mother Earth!" while traveling in Foreman's VW bus from the El Pinacate y Gran Desierto de Altar Biosphere Reserve in northern Mexico to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Provoked by what they considered a sell-out by mainstream environmental advocates during the "RARE II" (the Forest Service's Roadless Area Review and Evaluation) planning process, the activists envisioned a revolutionary movement to set aside multi-million acre ecological preserves all across the United States. Their ideas drew on the main concepts of the new science of conservation biology, which scientists like E.O. Wilson had developed over the past twenty years, but which mainstream environmental groups had been slow to embrace. All of this came together after a grueling hike, as the men headed toward Albuquerque. "Suddenly Foreman called out 'Earth First!' The next thing you know," Wolke says, "Roselle drew a clenched fist logo, passed it up to the front of the van, and there was Earth First!"[3]

The early years
During the group's early years (1979–1986), Earth First! mixed publicity stunts (such as rolling a plastic "crack" down Glen Canyon Dam) with far-reaching wilderness proposals that reportedly went beyond what mainstream environmental groups were willing to advocate (with conservation biology research from a biocentric perspective). The group's proposals were published in a periodical, Earth First! The Radical Environmental Journal, informally known as the Earth First! Journal. Edward Abbey often spoke at early gatherings, and his writings were an inspiration that led him to be revered by the early movement.[citation needed] An annual gathering of the group was known as the Round River Rendezvous, with the name taken from an Ojibwa myth about a continuous river of life flowing into and out of itself and sustaining all relations.[citation needed] The rendezvous is part celebration with art and music, part activist conference with workshops and accounts of past actions. Another project led by the organization at this time was the creation of a tax-deductible fund, then called Earth First! Foundation, which was established with the aim of providing financial support for research, advocacy and education by Earth First! activists. The fund was later renamed to Fund for Wild Nature in 1991.[5]
In the spring of 1985, a nationwide call to action in the Earth First! Journal[citation needed] brought Earth First! members from around the United States to the Willamette National Forest of western Oregon, to take action against Willamette Industries, a logging company. Finding logging road blockades (carried out by Corvallis-based Cathedral Forest Action Group) were offering too short-term a protection, Marylander Ron Huber and Washingtonian Mike Jakubal devised tree sitting as a more effective civil disobedience alternative.[6]
On May 23, 1985, Mike Jakubal made the first Earth First! tree sit.[7] When U.S. Forest Service law enforcement official Steve Slagowski arrived, Mike Roselle, Ron Huber and others were arrested sitting at the base of the tree in support. This first tree sit lasted less than a day—Jakubal came down in the evening to look over the remains of the forest that had been cut down around him that day, and was arrested by a hidden Forest Service officer—but the tree-sitting concept was deemed sound by Earth First! members. Huber and Jakubal, in the company of Mike Roselle, brought the concept to the June 14 Washington EF Rendezvous;[8] on June 23, a convoy of activists arrived at Willamette National Forest, and set up tree platforms[9] in "Squaw/Three timbersale",[10] a location the group thought was threatened with imminent destruction. While at one point, up to a dozen trees were occupied, a July 10 clash[11] took down all the trees with platforms except for Ron Huber's as the other sitters had gone for an overnight meeting elsewhere. Huber remained in his tree, dubbed Yggdrasil, until July 20 when two Linn County sheriff's deputies were lifted in a crane box[12] and wrestled him from the tree.
Later, from about 1987 on, Earth First! became primarily associated with direct action to prevent logging, building of dams, and other forms of development which Earth First! finds may cause destruction of wildlife habitats or the despoliation of wild places. This change in direction attracted many new members to Earth First!, some of whom came from a leftist or anarchist political background or involvement in the counterculture.[citation needed] Dave Foreman has related that this led to the introduction of such activities as a "puke-in" at a shopping mall, a flag burning, heckling of Edward Abbey at a 1987 Earth First! rendezvous, and back-and-forth debates in the Earth First! Journal on such topics as anarchism, with which Foreman and others did not wish to be associated. Most of the group's older members, including Dave Foreman, Howie Wolke, Bart Koehler, Christopher Manes, George Wuerthner, and Earth First! Journal editor John Davis, became increasingly uncomfortable with this new direction. This change reportedly led several of the founders to sever their ties to Earth First! in 1990. Many of them went on to launch a new magazine, Wild Earth, and a new environmental group, the Wildlands Project. Roselle, on the other hand, along with activists such as Judi Bari, welcomed the new direct-action and leftist direction of Earth First!.
Starting in the mid-1980s, Earth First! began an increasing promotion of and identification with "Deep Ecology", a philosophy put forward by Arne Næss, Bill Devall, and George Sessions, which holds that all forms of life on Earth have equal value in and of themselves, without regard for their utility to human beings.
Earth First! since 1990
Since 1990, action within the Earth First! movement has become increasingly influenced by anarchist political philosophy. The change also brought a rotation of the primary media organ in differing regions, an aversion to organized leadership or administrative structure, and a new trend of identifying Earth First! as a mainstream movement rather than an organization. In 1992, the push of Earth First! toward being a mainstream movement caused members who refused to abandon criminal acts to start a militant offshoot called Earth Liberation Front.[13] From the 1992 EF RRR gathering's late night bon-fire discussions the Earth Liberation Front was "formally" born, as young militant activists debated the effectiveness of civil disobedience activism tactics in light of the ever increasing destruction of the planet Earth by human activity. Elders of the Earth First movement gave their blessings to this newly formed strike team known as ELF to be a more extreme option for industrial society to contemplate if more moderate environmental measures were not heeded. [14] ELF became the extremists of the environmental movement, just as the Earth First movement itself was created for a decade earlier to be, "you (Boise-Cascade Lumber) either listen to the Sierra Club or a bunch of Earth First'ers will down here locking themselves to your buildings & desks while holding constant protest demonstrations!"
Occupations of forest timber sale areas and other threaten natural areas was a common strategy of Earth First whereas dozens of people would physically lock their bodies to trees, bulldozers, desks or even a redwood stump lock-box carried into Californian Congressman's Frank Riggs office in 1997 part of the ongoing HeadWaters Redwoods protests! [15] Earth First'ers arrestee's often were tortured by arresting police officers with pepper spray, pain compliance holds, police dogs and at gunpoint before being removed from specially created lock-down boxes (metal tubes with rebar in middle where activists would handcuff self upon) to or bicycle U-locks around their necks to the target object. Earth First beliefs encouraged the individual to self-identify with all life of this bio-sphere known as Earth as their extended self psychological which enabled a person to sacrifice themselves physically and endure great pain as well willing to die to defend the last wild lands behind them from destruction. Mass occupations such as "Free Cascadia" where Earth First occupied the burnt forested mountains of Oregon for 11 months, enduring weather & law enforcement raids to remove them from barricades, trenches and tree-sits built throughout the arson created timber sale, ultimately saving this wild land. However the attempt to occupy the old-growth timber sale Sugarloaf Mountain in southern Oregon in 1995 did not succeed where the USFS declared 30 square mile an exclusionary zone and arrested anyone on sight within, enforced with over 100 federal agents with helicopters and the elite US Army Ranger trained LEO squad known as "Camo-Feddies," hundreds of activists were arrested, at the end they witnessed one tree requiring 9 log trucks to carry it out. [16] Earth First responded by immediately occupying the next nearby timber sale "China Left" in early October 1995, placing two "Dragon Lock-boxes" into both ends of the valley's only road, a large hole was dug into the roadbed where an oil barrel with a PVC pipe horizontal place within & rebar stuck through barrel into pipe where activist would lock their arm upon and the oil barrel is buried in quick drying cement in/around and a 1/8 sheet plywood cemented on top to hamper digging out of the barrel lock-box known as a Dragon. The female Earth First'er known as 'Ocean' held the road for a day as police attempted to remove this human reinforced blockade, as Earth First dug in literally further down the valley starting a year long occupation protest where even a pickup truck was turned into a lock-box blocking the only bridge, to defend these last wild salmon spawning streams and old-growth forest where they began.
From 1992 to 1998 the largest timber sale in U.S. Forest Service history the "Cove/Mallard Timber Sale" in Idaho was occupied by Earth First with aid of nearby private land bought by an former land developer turned activist, again Earth First was able to save most of this threaten wilderness area. During the Cove/Mallard occupation over 350 people from 12 countries were arrested, slowing the project from a planned 200 clear-cuts & 7 new roads built into wild untouched lands down to only 2 roads and 37 clear-cuts. June 1993 Earth First stopped construction of the Noble Road by erecting elaborate multi-layered barricades which even included U.S. Forest Service vehicles, quickly in the night in an para-military fashion traveling over 17 miles through wild mountains dodging patrols of LEO's whom were informed of the planned demonstration. CNN covered this event where 27 activists were arrested, the first "Tripods" (3 30ft logs placed in triangle loosely tied together with a blanket to keep the activist warm as they sat 20 feet above) were placed over extensive trenches which had 4 activists buried in quick drying cement and two activists who locked themselves by their necks with U-locks to front axle of responding vehicles to reinforce the road blockage. U.S. Forest Service responded with shooting at fleeing activists and raid the private land with an M-16 armed SWAT team searching for "tree-spikers" and/or 'the individual whom resembled BigFoot and had attacked a USFS 4x4 with spears & rocks a few weeks earlier.' [17]
The first acknowledged death of an Earth First'er was September 1998 in northern California's Redwoods when a huge 300+ year old Redwood tree was cut down by a Pacific Lumber logger fell down upon the Earth First activist David Chain, he died instantly. David was engaged in the Earth First tactic known as "cat & mouse" whereas activists would move around inside active logging cutting units to create unsafe conditions for timber to be harvested by physically putting human bodies in path of trees being cut down, he died with a peaceful expression on his face as if he listening to a far off voice. [18] The HeadWaters campaign is to protect the last old-growth Redwood tree forests in northern California from being logged by Pacific Lumber Co. which was bought out by an hedge-fund company Maxxim whom broke up the lumber company & planned to liquidate its assets including the old-growth forests held in reserve for hundred years already. HeadWaters has been an ongoing protest for over 15 years.
Most activists of Earth First had already tried more moderate forms of environmental/political activism and decided to become more involved in pursuit of real action which created results other than letters to the editor or mere protest signs. Earth First activists such as 'Llama' of the Great Lakes Earth First chapter in Chicago, had been involved in college activism for years, traveled to D.C. and other capitols lobbying government officials and even received letters from President Clinton thanking him upon his "efforts to save the wild lands of America." Another Earth First leader 'Fawn' was raised Republican in a middle class family, but upon witnessing the vast clear-cuts in National Forest lands many people are inspired to acts of selflessness "in defense of Mother Earth." [19]
Most members of Earth First! liken themselves to a decentralized, locally informed activism based on communitarian ethics while Earth First adversaries characterize the group as conducting a form of terrorism.[20] One of the early critics of Earth First!'s change in tactics later accused the FBI of deliberately introducing the concept of Non-Violence to the group.[21]
In various parts of the country, individual citizens and small groups form the nuclei for grassroots political actions, which may take the form of legal actions—i.e. protests, timber sale appeals, and educational campaigns—or civil disobedience—tree sitting, road blockades, and sabotage—called "ecotage" by some Earth First! members, claiming it is done as a form of ecodefense. Often, disruptive direct action is used primarily as a stalling tactic in an attempt to prevent possible environmental destruction while Earth First! lawsuits try to secure long-term victories. Reported tactics include road blockades, activists locking themselves to heavy equipment, tree-sitting, and sabotage of machinery.[citation needed]
Earth First! was known for providing information in the Earth First! Journal on the practice of tree-spiking and monkeywrenching (or ecotage) which have led to reports of injuries from such tactics, although no evidence that Earth First! was involved in related activity.[22] In 1990, however, Judi Bari led Earth First! in the Northern California and Southern Oregon region to renounce these practices, calling them counterproductive to an effort to form a coalition with workers and small logging businesses to defeat large-scale corporate logging in Northern California.
Judi Bari Car Bombing
In 1990, a bomb exploded in Judi Bari's car, shattering her pelvis and also injuring fellow activist Darryl Cherney. Bari and Cherney were later arrested after police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation suspected that they had been transporting the bomb when it accidentally exploded. Bari contended that extremists opposed to her pro-environmental actions had placed the bomb in her car in order to kill her. The case against them was eventually dropped due to lack of evidence.[23] Bari died in 1997 of cancer, but her federal lawsuit against the FBI and Oakland, California police resulted in a 2002 jury verdict awarding her estate and Darryl Cherney a total of $4.4 million.[24] Eighty percent of the damages were for violation of their First Amendment rights by the FBI and police, who tried to discredit them in the media as violent extremists despite ample evidence to the contrary. The bombing remains unsolved.[24]
A documentary movie about the court case, entitled The Forest for the Trees, was released in 2006. It was directed by Bernadine Mellis and is available on Netflix and other movie sites. Bernadine Mellis' father is one of the lawyers featured in the documentary.
On March 21, 2011, a U.S. federal judge in California ordered the FBI to preserve evidence related to the car bombing. The FBI was planning to destroy all evidence in the case.[25]
Earth First! in the UK
The Earth First! movement in the United Kingdom started in 1990, when a group in Hastings, Sussex organised an action at Dungeness nuclear power station in Kent. It grew rapidly, and many groups formed, with or without the EF! name, over the next years.
The first big Earth First! actions happened in 1992 and focused around the importation of tropical hardwood. The first major action had happened in December 1991 at Port of Tilbury. The second major action, the Merseyside Dock Action, attracted between 200-600 people who occupied Liverpool docks for two days. This action coincided with the Earth First! roadshow, in which a group of UK & US Earth First!ers toured the country. Other early campaigns also focused on timber-yards, most notably the Timbmet yard in Oxford.[26]
There are now various regional Earth First! groups, the EF! Action Update has been joined by the EF! Action Reports website[27] and a yearly Earth First! national gathering.[28] At the first gathering in Sussex the debate focused on the use of criminal damage as a protest technique. Earth First! decided to neither 'condemn nor condone' criminal damage, instead it focused more on non-violent direct action techniques. Some people at the gathering coined the term Earth Liberation Front (ELF), which became a separate movement which spread back to the US. Actions involving criminal damage did happen often under cover of night and were typically done under an ELF banner and attributed to elves and pixies, or the Earth Liberation Faeries, giving a distinctly British feel to the movement.
Major growth in the direct action movement started with a concurrent focus on roads, and a protest camp at Twyford Down was started, against the M3 in Hampshire. Whilst Earth First! groups still played an essential part, other groups such as the Dongas tribe soon formed. Alongside SchNEWS, such publications as the Earth First! Action Update,[29] and Do or Die[30] were means of communication between the groups. The movement grew to other road protest camps including the Newbury bypass, the A30 and the M11 link road protest in London, where whole streets were squatted in order to slow down the construction work. Later the focus widened to other campaigns including Reclaim the Streets, anti-genetics campaigns,[31] and Rising Tide. More recently, there have been groups such as Peat Alert![32] and Plane Stupid.[33]
The UK Earth First! groups differed considerably from the U.S. groups as reported in a ten-year retrospective of the Earth First! by two of the founders Jake Bowers and Jason Torrance:
|We knew EF! US's original hardline "rednecks for wilderness" attitude wouldn't appeal here, so we set out to build a group that combined radical action and social justice to protect Britain's few remaining natural places.[26]
Seeing ecological and social justice as part of the same thing, plus organising along anarchist lines and bringing in other radical & militant struggles, mixed with audacious actions and real radicalism spread the EF! ideal to other countries and helped morph the US movement.
Sabotage Involving Earth First Members
Telluride Ski Resort
Vandals identifying themselves as members of Earth First forced the closing of the Telluride Ski Resort in Mountain Village, Colorado using a chemical to write messages on 11 greens, such as "Earth First!", "Hayduke lives" and "Ron you pig".[34] In relation to the incident, the Telluride Times Journal received a letter signed "Earth First" stating that the ski lift had been sabotaged with a welding gas applied to the lift cable that weakens the metal.[34]
Fairfield Snowbowl Ski Resort
Earth First! member Mark Davis pled guilty in Federal court to malicious destruction of property at the Fairfield Snowbowl Ski Resort near Flagstaff, Arizona.[35] Davis had been charged with, "using a torch to cut around the base of the top pylon of the main chair lift at Snowbowl on Oct. 25, 1988."[36]
Nuclear Power and Weapons Plants
Earth First! member Mark Davis was sentenced to six years in prison for conspiring to damage the Rocky Flats Nuclear Weapons Plant, the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Generating Facility, and the Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station.[35]

WORCESTER, Mass. – The Worcester State University men's soccer team shutout the visiting Pine Manor College Gators 2-0 in a Tuesday evening match-up at John F. Coughlin Field.
With the win, the Lancers advance to 7-5 overall, while the Gators dip to 3-8-1.
The Lancers started the scoring in the 26th minute when Worcester State's defenseman, Matthew Dent (Ludlow, Mass.) put away the ball off a Noah Phelps (Attleboro, Mass.) corner kick to mark his second goal of the season. Phelps notched his third assist in the 12 games played.
In the first half, the Lancers outshot the Gators 9-5 and held a 3-0 advantage in corner kicks.
Late into the second quarter, the Blue and Gold added another goal when Worcester State's Bryan Brasil (Williamsburg, Mass.) placed a shot in the back of the net, progressing the score to 2-0 in the Lancers' favor.
Despite the outcome of a 2-0 win for the Lancers, the Pine Manor Gators fought back in the second half as they tallied five shots (three on goal) and held a 4-1 edge on corner kicks. The Gators' Samuel Solano (El Paso, Texas) notched two of the team's four total shots on goal.
Worcester State's goalie, Jason Barrett (Spencer, Mass.) earned the win in 85 minutes played, while the Gators' Oscar Estrada (North Port, Fla.) suffered the loss in a five-save performance.
Next up, the Lancers travel across-town to Becker College on Thursday. The Gators resume play on Thursday when they host Lasell in a 3 p.m. matchup.

Russia calls UN meeting to seek cease-fire in Ukraine
A pro-Russian rebel prepares to fire a rocket propelled grenade during clashes as they attack a border guard base held by Ukrainian troops on the outskirts of Luhansk, eastern Ukraine, Monday, June 2, 2014. (AP / Vadim Ghirda)
After months of blocking any Security Council action on Ukraine, Russia called an emergency meeting of the UN's most powerful body Monday to introduce a resolution calling for an immediate halt to deadly clashes in eastern Ukraine.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said Moscow will seek Security Council action to end weeks of violence in Russian-speaking eastern Ukraine between government troops and pro-Russian insurgents, a move immediately denounced by the United States as "hypocritical."
Speaking in Moscow, Lavrov said the resolution would seek to establish a "stable and reliable cease fire," and also call for the creation of "humanitarian corridors that will help civilians leave hostility zones, should they wish to do so."
U.S. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki countered that Russia was being "hypocritical" by calling for a ceasefire and seeking help for civilians to safely leave combat zones in eastern Ukraine while "doing nothing to stop" Ukrainian separatists from attacking targets in the east and holding international monitoring teams hostage.
"So if they're going to call for ...reduction in tension and a de-escalation, it would be more effective for them to end those activities," Psaki told reporters in Washington.
Russia holds the rotating Security Council presidency in June, and the council met behind closed doors Monday afternoon to discuss the proposed resolution.
Russia's UN Ambassador Vitaly Churkin said the resolution would not be drafted in such a way that it could be enforced militarily.
Moscow has been virtually isolated in more than a dozen previous Security Council meeting on Russia's annexation of Ukraine's Crimean peninsula and the ongoing crisis. But because of Russia's veto power as a permanent member, the council has been unable to act. By contrast, the 193-member General Assembly, where there are no vetoes, affirmed Ukraine's territorial integrity in a surprisingly strong but nonbinding vote.
Russia has called almost daily for an end to violence in eastern Ukraine, but this is the first time Moscow has called for a Security Council resolution.
It was unclear how much support the proposal would have.
No council member has recognized Russia's annexation of Crimea, and Western nations are virtually certain to demand that any resolution reaffirm Ukraine's territorial integrity.
The proposed resolution comes at a time when Russia is opposing the creation of humanitarian corridors in Syria, angering many council members.
Lithuania's UN Ambassador Raimonda Murmokaite wondered aloud as she headed into the council meeting whether Russia was thinking about its support of humanitarian corridors in Ukraine -- but not in Syria.
"After four vetoes (of Syria resolutions) and after resistance to any sensible action on humanitarian issues in Syria, to propose something on Ukraine is a little bit ironic to say the least," she said.

Pressure Sensitive iPad Stylus – Wacom Beware 0
When editing photos, I'm a die hard Wacom fan. Recently Wacom released the Intuos5 which allows multi-touch; but, for on-the-go editing, I'm afraid the iPad still hogs more than its fair share of the market. iPad stylus' aren't anything new, do a search on Amazon and you'll get 7000+ results. None of them are touch senstive though, Blue Tiger will be the first.
The stylus will work with the iPad 3 and talk over BlueTooth 4.0. BlueTooth 4.0 means no annoying sync procedure, the device just connects and works, automagically. The stylus features a few other well thought out features, like an LED that shows which color your painting with – check out the list and video below
- Fast, simple bluetooth 4.0 technology does away with pairing.
- Any application can take advantage of the features, but developers should use our free code to help them integrate.
- Full pressure sensitivity.
- Palm rejection capability.
- Lights, buttons, music (ok, maybe not music).
- Full details, name, pricing, etc coming soon.
- Product will ship after FCC approval. If you're a developer, the time to start testing is now.

Last week I was at O'Reilly Open Source Convention representing the Mozilla Community and meeting with folks to talk about some of the cool things going on in the Mozilla Community.
This year was especially exciting because Mozilla sponsored Community Leadership Summit the weekend before which had an amazing turnout and had several Mozillians in attendance. Even better, OSCON itself had a great line up of Mozillians speaking about technology and topics they are passionate about.
Towards the end of the week several of us gathered and I hosted a Mozilla Birds of Feather session which saw a small but good turnout of developers and even students from Oregon State University Open Source Labs. It was interesting because even the non-Mozillians had strong ties to the Mozilla community in one manner or another.
I think OSCON was a great opportunity for Mozillians this year to engage the greater open source community and do some networking but I think next year we can have a even larger role and perhaps a booth where we can do some Firefox OS evangelism.

In Ventura County,
the City of Camarillo is located in the
Pleasant Valley at the bottom of the Conejo Grade. Many consider this the
line of demarcation, separating Los Angeles from the Central Coast.
Though some L.A. commuters live in the area, the look and feel of
Camarillo is distinctively refreshing and open. With Highway 101 passing
through the city (pictured above), thousands of travelers per day
stop to enjoy Camarillo's fine outlet shops and dining opportunities.
Camarillo is also home to two fabulous museums. The historic
Camarillo Ranch (top left photo) recently opened its doors for the first
ever public viewing of a spectacular, 17-room Victorian home. There's also
a wonderful air museum with brand new hangars housing several war planes
(right photo) that are being refurbished, and for sports enthusiasts, there
are four public golf courses.
Located 17 miles east of Ventura, the city was named after
Juan Camarillo who came to San Buenaventura in 1857 and purchased Rancho
Calleguas in 1875.

Victorian house on a 4 and 1/2 acre ranch. Operated by the Camarillo
Ranch Foundation, the 17-room mansion contains 6,000 square feet of interior
space and includes two staircases, Victorian exhibits, a gift shop and
beautiful gardens. Built in 1892 as a family residence for Isabel Camarillo
from her loving 28-year old husband, Adolfo, this gracious place has captured
the hearts of guests such as Hollywood celebrities Tom Mix and Rita Hayworth.
Adolfo Camarillo, founder of the City of Camarillo, once managed a 10,000
acre ranch where he developed a breed of horse, the Camarillo White Horse,
which is seen in parades today. The prominent figure in local history served
as Ventura County Supervisor, as well. He died in 1958. The City
of Camarillo acquired the ranch house and a portion of the original property
in 1998 and operates it through the Camarillo Ranch Foundation. Seeking

Hot dog (probably the only food not available for tasting today) a wine and food festival with a twist. The twist? It's fruit wine, the 10th Annual Archibald's festival that brings local area eateries (in and around Bowmanville) together with Ontario fruit wineries. This year there were 10 participating wineries. Some, like Southbrook, Muskoka Lakes and Rush Creek are annual attendees, while others like Countryman's and Moon Shadow are relatively new to the festivities. This is by no means all the fruit wineries of Ontario – for that Archibald's would have to clear out their entire parking lot and set the tents up there … but it is a good representation of fruit wineries in the area, and from a little further. I have to hand it to Archibald's, this year's event was well thought out and spacious as compared to last year's. Last year there was one long tent with wineries and foodries up and down each side, causing a over-crowding situation where you always felt like you were in the way and stepping on your neighbour-taster, combine that with the heat and flash of a heavy downpour and the tent became stifling at times. This year the tents, yes plural, were set up in a "U"-shape with the wineries and food stations on the outside perimeter, and the interior had lots of tables, chairs and plenty of room to move about and enjoy your sample without feeling rushed or in the way; kudos to the organizers (Archibald's) for realizing the need for a much better set-up.
So Who Was There …
Applewood, Countryman's, County Cider, Kawartha Country, Moon Shadows, Muskoka Lakes, Ocala, Rush Creek, Southbrook and of course the host, Archibald's. My foodie took the day off, so I was on my own for food selections, and those who know me know that food takes a back seat to a good glass of wine, but there were some interesting and tasty dishes to be had – keeping in mind that sometimes simple is best.
Food First …
Chanterelle Bistro (Bowmanville) served delicious mini lamb burgers that were succulent and juicy topped with a mint jelly. Everything from the bun to the jelly was homemade.
A gentleman by the name of Eben Vanderstam, who goes by the moniker "Chef Eben", had the most sought after treat of the day: Durham Pork and Beef Meatballs Walsaka. Everybody was carrying at least one of these delicious squash ball sized meatballs around, smothered in a delicious sweet and tangy sauce; if you were unlucky enough not to be carrying one around (or hadn't tried one yet) you sooner or later found yourself asking someone, "where did you get that?"
Steamers Catering (Newcastle) had the dessert of the day to die for: Chocolate Crunch Trifle … chocolate cake, chcolate pudding with toffee-almond crunch mixed in, all topped with whipped cream and a cherry. I suffered through one, but would have gladly suffered through a dozen more.
Now, The Wine …
Ten wineries pouring a minimum of three wines each, though many were pouring more, and the choices of what to try seemed endless. But the wine of the day went to Applewood Farm Winery for their Mac Meade ($12.95) – there is no doubt as to why this wine won it's Double Gold status at this year's All Canadian Wine Championships (its second in as many years).
Other delights included Rush Creeks' Rockin' Raspberry; Kawartha Country Wines' Raspberry Social and Raspberry Chocolate; and Muskoka Lakes 2007 Cranberry and 2007 White Cranberry. There were also previous favourites like the Moon Shadow dessert series (Maple Sugar, Strawberry Shortcake and Cranberry Ice), Applewood's Hard Eight Raspberry Cider and Mukoka Lakes' Red Maple.
I'd be remiss if I didn't mention at least one wine from the host and I found a great little bit of bubbly called Hard Cranberry that's an apple based wine with a shot of cranberry to minimize the sweetness and ramp up the refreshment factor.
Another successful and eye-opening Fruit Wine Festival – it's here that you will find the innovators of the wine industry – they push the envelope to make interesting and authentic wines because of their passion for the product, because they sure don't get the recognition they deserve from the wine buying public or the LCBO and certainly none from government – but that's a story for another day. What I suggest now is finding your local fruit winery, step inside and see what interesting things are on the shelf, or you can always wait for the 11th edition of this festival to come around.

About Ingrid King
"Ingrid King defines what it is to be a "cat person." She doesn't just live with them, observe and write about them; rather, she delves deeper, reflecting a natural sense of empathy and kinship with cats. There is an intrinsic bond with the feline world on display in casual conversation with Ingrid, as well as in her writing. Ingrid brings us closer to understanding the everyday reality of cats and, finally, what we can learn about our own lives through better appreciating theirs." – Jackson Galaxy, Host of Animal Planet's My Cat From Hell.
I am the award winning author of Buckley's Story: Lessons from a Feline Master Teacher, Purrs of Wisdom: Conscious Living, Feline Style, Adventures in Veterinary Medicine: What Working in Veterinary Hospitals Taught Me About Life, Love and Myself, Tortitude: The BIG Book of Cats with A BIG Attitude, and Purrs of Wisdom: Enlightenment, Feline Style.
I'm a former veterinary hospital manager turned writer. During my twelve years of working in various facets of the veterinary profession, I gained a thorough understanding of pets' and owners' needs in what can often be a challenging, stressful environment. I realized that pet owners are often afraid to ask the tough questions, and resort to the internet to find answers to their pet health questions. Even though there's a wealth of pet health advice available online, it can be difficult to find information that is current and factual. My mission is to provide accurate and well-researched pet health information to my readers. My passion, and my focus on this site, are cats and cat related topics.
My articles have been published in Cat Fancy Magazine, Animal Wellness Magazine, Kittens 101, and numerous other publications.
I'm a certified veterinary journalist and a professional member of the Cat Writers Association.
I'm a Reiki Master Pratitioner and owner of Healing Hands. I am trained in traditional Usui Shiki Ryoho Reiki. I integrate Reiki with my natural intuitive abilities and tailor each session to develop the best experience for each individual client, be it human or animal.

Subsequently, only once merged as you massive platter in the earth's crust a reasonable information is the continents was. In 1912, Alfred Wegener got to this type of bottom line.

His hypothesis fashioned the idea for today's geological investigating towards the makes just for the impede drifting of these continents to or away from the other person. Immediately, geologists and professionals concur which your principle is the reason for the development of a number of continental boasts. As a consequence, this old fashioned paper covers a history and growth and development of the Continental Drift Way of thinking while the results it has possessed on scientists information about the exercise using the Earths lithosphere The environment was once made up of model considerable crust surrounded by standard water, according to Alfred Wegener. He named it Pangaea. In the Carboniferous cycle, this crust break up to form the actual several continents.

But the truth is, Wegener did not have any substantiation to support this state. Originally, he attested it of the earth's centrifugal force that brought on the rift to the particular dish. It; yet, proved a bit too unimportant to assist his suggestion (Frisch, Meschede And Blakey, 2011). Eventually, he directed a written report for the Brazilian shoreline therefore the shores of Western side Africa. Wegener realized the fossils available on these locations were definitely matching and outdated back to the same thing time. He announced common circumstances in India and Madagascar. Furthermore this paleontological research, additionally research demonstrated that continental glaciations quit equivalent rock and roll strata off the coasts of West Africa and northeast coastline of Brazil (Frankel, 2012). However, Alfred Wegeners breakthroughs have already been not offered ample consideration. Around the 1960's, Arthur Holmes bolstered Wegener's concept by developing other supporting learning (Frankel, 2012).

He asserted that the explanation for the continental drift was the undercover convectional currents. Holmes points out that below the lithosphere really is a solid covering of molten substance. Since it is at the liquid condition, the new stuff soars while the very cold and dense pieces go down. This zone, that is why, develops convection currents. He ruled out the prior debate, saying that the earth's rotation could not design satisfactory compel to advance the continental plates (Frankel, 2012). During his prospective, the primary plausible simple reason was the convection currents pulled or pressed dishes when it comes to and from the one essay writers another correspondingly. Professionals have collected from the hypotheses to present explanations for certain actual boasts. Such as, for decades these folks were baffled through continuing transfer for this magnetic north pole (Frankel, 2012). At the same time first they think it is due to the the rotation on the planet, they subsequent arrived at determine that your drift associated with the plate brought about the change.

Specific continental limits and has also established mainly because of the drifting of that continents. The geologists believe Alps of Europe and Alpine mountain tops of Morocco seemed to be fashioned by drifting a part of these two continents. Further, it shaped the Mediterranean Water. Besides that, this hypothesis is linked to the Contraction Concept, which tries to justify the formation associated with the Collapse Hills on the continental margins (Frisch, Meschede And Blakey, 2011). There are more healthy occurrences that gain outline from Wegeners assertion. Considering that the dishes are constantly going, the platter margins sometimes collide. Depending upon whether or not the dish is oceanic or continental or oceanic, the plates will ruin, construct or purpose low destroy combined their margins.

It types favourable boundaries, detrimental restrictions and convert faults. Just lately, widespread earthquakes for the Atlantic section were actually alluded with this information. Normal shearing on the plate margins created the production of pent-up energy that caused earthquakes. The Pacific Rim is a second present breakthrough that borrows the same thing theory. To conclude, the Continental Drift Principle has made the idea for numerous geographic provides (Frisch, Meschede And Blakey, 2011). Today's experts verify this concept. Mountains available at the continental margins such as the Alpines of Morocco, the Alps of The european union along with Himalayas of Parts of asia are a few of these characteristics that they think have been due to the the drifting associated with the continents. Way more data that guaranteed this theory featured the glaciation scientific tests, fossil data, mid-seas trenches and ridges. In short, by way of Alfred Wegener, professionals can come up with entirely possible advantages for the development of these amenities.

As we age "deflation" and sagging of the facial tissues can create hollowing resulting in a resulting "tired" or even "skeletonized" look. This loss of volume is most pronounced around the eyes, cheeks and jawline. Alone or in combination with other techniques such as eyelid lift and/or facelift, Fat Transfer for Men can create a more balanced, natural, rejuvenated face.
Conceptually, the goal of facial fat transfer is to replace fat that has been lost, filling hollows, and creating more youthful highlights while still maintaining a masculine look. The successful results of this minimally invasive procedure and lack of incisions have made it popular with men.
In the Fat Transfer for Men procedure, Dr. Elizabeth removes fat from an area such as your abdomen or thighs and places it into certain regions of the face that have started to lose fat. Only tiny amounts of fat are removed so this should not be equated with liposuction. At Atlanta Face & Body Center, a microdroplet injection technique helps maximize grafted fat survival and overall results. Fullness is returned to hollow areas and the cheeks are "lifted" without incisions or invasive surgery.
The result can be a revitalized appearance that looks natural and maintains your masculine features and contours!

Chinese Medical Theory, Terms, and Strategies Explained
Common Terms Used in Chinese Medicine
Deficiency: typically refers to deficient amounts of Qi, Blood, and Essence in the body.
Excess: typically when heat builds up in the body, often resulting from stagnation; the most common excess due to stagnation is Liver Qi Stagnation leading to Liver Heat.
- True excess would be a high fever due to an external pathogen. One other Excess that commonly leads to imbalances would be toxin building up in the body. Dampness accumulating in the body will also create stagnation and an Excess Heat condition.
- There is also false heat in Chinese medicine as seen in Yin Deficient patterns.
What is Qi or Chi?
Qi or Chi (pronounced "chee") is the vital energy providing us with animation, warmth, and the ability to manifest mentally. In acupuncture, the Qi is manipulated through acupuncture points. Qi must be in constant movement, and must move in the correct direction for good health. Where Qi goes, Blood follows, so manipulating Qi increases Blood circulation.
Stagnation of Qi and Blood
Stagnation is a term used in Chinese medicine when Blood and Qi are not moving freely through the channels creating blocks of energy that lead to pain and disease. The body seems motionless when we are at rest, however, internally there is a constant fluid motion in the body; the interstitial fluid is constantly ebbing and flowing throughout the tissue in a wave-like motion, tissue is constantly breaking down and rebuilding, and blood is flowing relentlessly through the vessels. All of this takes place without pause along with hundreds of other actions until we cease to exist on this Earth.
Qi Deficiency can be indicated by coldness, muscles weakness, or an overall lethargic feeling. Because Qi is supplied largely by air, food, and tonic herbs, it is typically quick to replenish. However, when the organ systems that refine Qi in the body from these sources are damaged or deficient, it takes longer to correct the situation.
Blood Deficiency manifests as dry skin, hair loss, or reduced flexibility in the joints. Blood depends on nutrients, and thus herbs, foods, and other supplements are required to replace blood. As discussed in the Substances, Blood Deficiency becomes more common as we age.
As mentioned above, Blood and Qi must move unimpeded through the Channels and vessels to maintain a healthy, pain-free body. It is only when there is stagnation of the Blood and Qi that we experience pain. This stagnation can be caused by trauma obviously, but is often caused by a deficiency of Blood and Qi, toxins, or emotional blocks. In the case of deficiency, you need only visualize a rocky creek that has almost run dry; it is difficult to move a stream that does not have sufficient water. Likewise, you cannot move Blood and Qi if you are deficient of Blood and Qi.
The Liver controls the smooth flow of Qi throughout the body which is crucial to the health of all of the organ systems in the body. Because the Liver has such a great impact on all bodily functions, it is often associated with many different disease patterns and can even be the root cause of many diseases. There are several causes of Liver Qi Stagnation including Liver Blood Deficiency and emotional stress.
Spleen Qi Deficiency is a common imbalance that is closely related to Qi Deficiency as described above, but may also include indications of Internal Dampness, prolapses, or digestive disorders. Rather than a large lymph gland as seen in western medicine, the Spleen energetic organ system of Chinese medicine describes a complex functional system that controls the "transportation and transformation of foods and fluids".

No, don't make faces – yes I can see you making them!
Make and serve with the new 2011 Pinot Grigio Rose.
1 lb(ish) chicken livers
½ c. Morovino 2011 Pinot Grigio Rose
3 T. Morovino Pinot Grigio Rose (divided use)
3 T. balsamic vinegar
4 slices turkey bacon, chopped
1 bay leaf 1 sprig fresh thyme or ½ t. dried
3 minced green onions
3 T. olive oil (divided use)
2 medium onions sliced into thin rings
2 medium tart apples (like Granny Smith)
1 T. butter
1 T. lemon juice (juice of ½ lemon)
1 T. golden raisins
Salt and pepper to taste
1 bag of your favorite salad greens (Mrs. Vino likes Spring Mix for this)
Liver is Mrs. Vino's ultimate comfort food (check out her blog post on the subject). However, Mrs. Vino fully appreciates that liver is NOT everyone's comfort food. For the adventurous or curious, read on.
Rinse chicken livers and pat them dry. Look for and remove any green spots (there probably won't be any, most livers come to you pre-cleaned–but always good to check). Place livers in a bowl with 1/2 cup Pinot Grigio, 2 T. balsamic vinegar, bay leaf and thyme. Refrigerate for 1 hour (this removes the gamey, strong flavor from the liver). Dump your bag of greens into a bowl, then arrange on 4 small plates (side salad) or two large ones (dinner salad).
Heat 2 T oil in a non stick pan. Add onions and bacon and fry over medium high heat until golden brown. Remove from pan and keep warm. Wipe out pan with a paper towel. Peel and core apples, slice thinly. Melt butter in pan (give it a minute to cool down first) over medium heat. Add apple slices and cook until crisp/tender. Add lemon juice, additional 3 T of Pinot Grigio and raisins and cook for 3 minutes. Set aside and wipe pan with paper towel. Heat remaining 1T oil in pan over high heat. Remove livers from bowl with a slotted spoon, reserving the marinade. Dry livers. Add livers to hot oil and cook on all sides (about 3 minutes on Mrs. Vino's burners). Add salt and pepper to taste, then place livers on top of salad greens. Pour reserved liver marinade (not as gross as it sounds) in to pan and bring to a boil. Add remaining 1T of balsamic vinegar and salt and pepper. Drizzle over liver & greens. Top with reserved onions and apples, and then minced green onions. Really. Really. Good. And cheap.
