Jeff also served a 2-year sentence at the Electronic Arts maximum security facility, but about that, the less said the better.
Sent from my iPadBefore I get to my Top 10 Games of 2010, here are a few things to keep in mind:
1. I am no longer in the gaming media, so the only games I get (other than PopCap games) are the ones I buy myself. Thus the games I played in 2010 was rather self-selecting. I bought 'em because I knew I'd be predisposed to liking 'em. And for the most part, this turned out to be true, with one notable exception.
2. I still don't own a PS3. Why? Because I am a pud. So there are no PS3 games on this list. deal with it.
3. I'm on vacation in Hawaii as I write this, so if this list seems particularly, brain-dead, blame the sun. I really don't care what you think anyway, because I'm in Hawaii! LOL!
Okay, here's the list, in the order that I'm feeling right now. If I wrote this tomorrow, I'd probably reorder them. Yes, that's how arbitrary this is, just like everyone else's list. They just don't always admit it.
10. Zuma Blitz
Look, what do you want from me? They pay me. What would you do? Besides, this game fucking rules. Zuma was honestly the one big PopCap franchise I was never fully into--I have to shoot balls out of a frog's mouth, you say? -- but, given to me in 60-second challenges, competing against all my friends, and, yeah, I'm in. I'm not going to try to sell you on the game or the gameplay, because that's just PR. I've said enough. Try it, and you'll know I'm not just earning a paycheck here.
9. Costume Quest
The best game I played with my daughter this year. No masterpiece, surely, but you could almost feel the relief and joy that Tim Schafer and Double Fine poured into this project, freed from the constraints of a AAA budget and gigantic publisher. As usual, the offhand jokes and dialog were a highlight, but even the game's concept was great, tapping into that little-kid fantasy world that is Halloween trick-or-treating night. Here's hoping no one ever tempts Tim Schafer with a giant publishing deal again, and that he doesn't need one. I'll take one Costume Quest over ten Brutal Legends any day.
8. Pac-Man Championship Edition DX
It endures. Thirty years ago, I was feeding quarters into a machine--always wishing I had more quarters. I don't need quarters for this anymore, thank god, but the addiction--THE FEVER--is back, as strong (or maybe stronger) than ever, in this totally brilliant reimagining of a game that, really, none of us thought could be reimagined any further. I mean, really--Pac Man? But the fundamental change here--from one of survival to high-score attainment--while seemingly butt-simple and not particularly profound, turned out to be a stroke of genius, as did the gazillion unlocks, which, as we all know in 2010, is how to win over our 21st century ADD, reward-starved lizard brains. Seriously, this had no business being any good. The fact that it's awesome is just kind of the Feel Good Story of 2010. When Pac-Man is good, all is right with the world.
7. World of Warcraft: Cataclysm
I swore I was out. I quit, in fact, for 16 glorious months. And I didn't miss it, either. I could recall my addiction, I could remember how sucked in I was, and I would shiver with relief that I didn't need it any more. And during that 16 months I discovered a whole world of games I had been missing out on while serving the cruel mistress that is WoW. But goddamn if I'm not all the way back in again. And happy about it. What Blizzard has done in this monumental expansion is essentially build an entire new game on top of the old one, ripping out the antiquated parts and replacing it with all the good stuff they've learned over the six years of running this monster. Everything is easier, more streamlined, more fun, more engaging--and if you're stuck on this being "too easy" now, then you weren't paying attention 6 years ago when it was already too easy, at least to those of us who cut our teeth on the old school MMOs. WoW has never been about making you feel like a tough guy hardcore gamer, okay? So get over it. WoW is the Disneyland of computer gaming--an amusement park with thrill rides for everyone. And these new rides? They're better than ever. Now someone bring me a pizza and a bucket, because I'm not moving my fat ass off this chair for another year. Yay!
6. Dragon Quest IX: Sentinel of the Starry Skies
My favorite RPG of the year. Also my first Dragon Quest ever. And the only game I played on my Nintendo DS this year. I loved everything about this JRPG, including the cutesy graphics, but the highlight for me, and one of my gaming highlights of 2010, was hanging out at PAX with hundreds of other Dragon Quest players, all with DSes in hand, as we "visited" each other's games via the game's clever "multiplayer" (in quotes because, ya know, you're not really playing together), which rewards you based on the number of visitors you get. A gimmick, maybe, but a neat way to expand such a normally closed, individual experience. And it didn't hurt that that closed, individual experience was such a well-designed and addictive one.
5. Mass Effect 2
Given how miserable this game's publisher made me in 2010, I tried hard to keep this off my list. But if I'm being honest (and, look, I'm trying), then Mass Effect 2 not only makes the list, but makes it near the top. I didn't finish Mass Effect the first time around because, frankly, it bored me shitless, thanks to 20+ hours of elevator rides. But Mass Effect 2 trimmed all the lame fat out of the first game, amped up the action, and gave us one of the best adventures of 2010. Note I did not say "RPG", because, really, BioWare veered away from the genre with this franchise. Yeah, there's still decision-making and tons of dialog, as always with BioWare, but this time it was less about morality than just getting you towards the big action movie that serves as the game's final act. I had such a great time with this that I actually went back and played Mass Effect 1 all the way through just to play ME2 a second time. And the second time? I liked it even more.
4. Carcassonne for iPhone/iPad
One of the best board games of the past 10 years gets an absolutely awesome port to the iOS. Makers of the far-inferior Catan and Small World, take note: This is how you do it. Totally faithful to the look-and-feel of the board game with an interface that takes full advantage of the digital platform. All that's missing now is GameCenter support. And the board game's expansions.
3. Limbo
Where 2008's indie darling, Braid, honestly left me a bit cold, this one I loved. Limbo is a total triumph of artistic vision, and proof that all you need is artistic vision--and not a multimillion-dollar budget--to produce a beautiful, original gaming experience. A quiet, haunting platformer with devious puzzles around every bend and a WTF-is-going-on-here storyline that keeps you going from the second those two eyes first open on the stark black-and-white screen. If I had actually been stupid enough to engage in yet another one of those "are videogames art?" debates that surfaced this year, this would have been the game I'd have shown to prove the Yes argument. They're not all art, not by a longshot, but Limbo is.
2. StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty
Truthfully, this is a bit like ranking Fellowship of the Ring before The Lord of the Rings was fully finished. Because this is just the first part of a trilogy. So StarCraft II's full impact and quality won't really be known until Blizzard has released all three parts. Still, this is all we have right now, and, for me, it was plenty, and it was great. I'm a single-player guy, mostly, and, as usual, Blizzard put together a great campaign, with excellent cutscenes, some great twists on some of the individual missions, and a learning curve that let you fully get a grip on all the new units. Multiplayer-wise, it's still like swimming with five-handed, anal-retentive, aggressive, assholish sharks, but, hey, welcome to the Internet. And I appreciated Blizzard's ample tools for teaching you multiplayer tactics while offline. Blizzard had incredible obstacles to overcome here: 10 year anticipation, a moribund genre, and the need to improve on a game that was almost already near-perfect. It's easy to take them, and this, for granted--but not by me. StarCraft II is a fantastic achievement.
1. Red Dead Redemption
The first Rockstar game I've ever felt compelled to finish, and then did. I've always admired the GTA games more than actually enjoyed them, and have never fully understood the near unanimous press splooging for their games, which reached new, ridiculous heights of hyperbole with GTA IV (yeah, no it wasn't The Godfather, or the next evolution of storytelling after John Steinbeck, sorry). So I was all prepared not to get the hype over this one either. But, for me, Red Dead delivered. The setting, the storytelling, the characters, the graphics--all of it. All the things that bugged me in previous Rockstar games just felt better here. I never felt stymied by game mechanics or lame missions, but instead was constantly propelled forward with smart, fun, and challenging-but-fair gameplay. And just when I was feeling serious WTF-dom over what felt like an anti-climactic "ending," I kept playing and then got to the real ending. So what do you know? Rockstar may be awesome storytellers after all.
Biggest Disappointment of 2010: Sid Meier's Civilization V
Understand that for old-school PC gamers like me, the Civilization franchise is kind of like the Holy Scripture, or Noah's Ark, or, I dunno, something...sacred. Each new release is An Event. And while early previews had me psyched as usual, the actual delivery left me thoroughly underwhelmed. I was wowed by the slicker, prettier interface for all of about 15 minutes, after which I began missing all the things they inexplicably took out, like Religion, which was so key to the way I used to play. Honestly, I can't really put my finger on it, but whatever magic ingredient it was that used to make this an impossible-to-resist strategy game just went missing for me this time. I just don't grok it.

The days of energy-wasting pool equipment are numbered.
Manufacturers, utility companies and government agencies are working together to upgrade energy-sucking equipment pads with smarter, more efficient pumps.
Here, Pool & Spa News takes a close look at several initiatives underway that could have swimming pools humming with optimal efficiency.
Get 'connected'
If your utility provider has ever cut the juice to your air conditioner on the hottest day of the year, it wasn't a practical joke committed by a bored electrical grid operator. It was to help preserve precious power.
In the early 2000s, utility companies were straining to provide reliable energy due to record numbers of air conditioners operating at full blast. So they initiated time-based rate structures, allowing consumers to curtail energy use during periods of peak demand, the obvious benefit being a smaller energy bill.
But homeowners still have the option to override the utility's settings. And on a hot day, you can be sure many of them do.
If only there were some other, less noticeable appliance utilities could control remotely.
Enter the pool pump
"The consumer impact of managing that load is very low," says Douglas Frazee, a consultant with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Energy Star program in Washington, D.C. In fact, a utility could temporarily shut off a pump and the consumer — most likely — would be none the wiser.
Try doing that with an air conditioner.
That's why utilities are investing in pilot programs to explore the energy savings potential of pumps with what's called demand-response capabilities. San Diego Gas & Electric and Southern California Edison are field testing pump prototypes that feature smart-grid connectivity, which allows for two-way communication between the appliance and the power provider. That would present significant benefits to the utility company, chief among them: peak period avoidance.
These pumps also would be capable of sending and receiving signals to and from a home's smart meter, which records the energy use of multiple appliances, such as a refrigerator and HVAC, and sends that data to the homeowner and the utility company. With a smart meter, the homeowner can, for example, adjust the temperature on a freezer or throttle down the pool pump remotely through a communication hub called a Home Area Network.
SDG&E recently installed 1.4 million smart meters in homes throughout its service area, while several other power providers are in the process of modernizing their grids as well.
While pool equipment manufacturers have products that can be controlled via a smartphone, pumps with smart-grid compatibility are not yet commercially available. But the EPA foresees that they soon will be. That's why it's establishing a set of criteria that pumps would have to meet in order to be listed as an Energy Star product with "connected functionality." Meeting this "connected" criteria would go above and beyond efficiency standards already established by the EPA and, therefore, are not a requirement to receive the Energy Star seal. Rather, these optional features would make the product more likely to be eligible for utility rebates, explained Christopher Kent, Energy Star's product manager for pool equipment.
"Utility companies are interested in identifying these products for incentive opportunities," he explains.
We're already seeing how rebate programs are effectively nudging homeowners to swap out poorer performing pumps with the energy-saving variety. As these programs gain traction, the wheels are already in motion to usher in this new generation of pool pumps.
Let's call it Pump 3.0
Pumps boasting intelligent, smart grid-compatible features will have to meet a laundry list of requirements for Energy Star to acknowledge them as worthy add-ons. The criteria are still in the works, though an initial draft written earlier this year gives a good indication of the capabilities of connected pump systems.
Here are some of the requirements.
Energy consumption reporting: The pump will send data, such as how much energy it's consuming in 15 minute intervals, to the homeowner and authorized third parties (the utility) via a communications link. The homeowner also could receive detailed reports, such as how much it costs to run the pump each month and actionable steps they can take to scale back on energy use.
Remote management: At minimum the consumer should be able to remotely control the pump, a feature already available on select models.
Operational status: To better manage energy use, homeowners should be able to receive reminders to clean/flush the filter or a notice that the pump is operating outside its normal range.
Peak period avoidance: By default, the pump would be programed to avoid high-speed operation during a six-hour period that the utility experiences peak demand (generally noon to 6 p.m. in the warmer months). Not only does this alleviate strain on the grid, but homeowners who participate in time-based rate structures would likely see some cost savings.
Demand response: The pump would respond to a signal from the utility in one of three ways:
1. Decrease power. During peak times, a variable speed pump would power down to a third of its full speed or flow; a multi-speed pump would be limited to its lowest available speed, while a single speed pump wouldn't be able to perform any pumping.
2. Stop operation. The utility would shut off the pump for a period of time. This would allow utilities to quickly relieve stress on the grid to avoid blackouts or brownouts.
3. Increase speed or flow, or operate for longer durations. This would be offset later by operating in a smaller capacity to avoid a spike in energy use.
The draft states that the pump would not be required to respond to any request that could jeopardize the safety of the equipment, and customers could override programing at any time.
So, which manufacturer is ready to introduce the industry's first "connected" pump?
"Although all of the major manufacturers have products that have connected attributes, none of them would meet all of the Draft 1 criteria," Frazee says.
While there remain some infrastructure details and regulatory issues to iron out, manufacturers are largely in support of the initiative.
"I think it's really good for the industry," says Jeff Farlow, program manager of energy initiatives at Pentair Aquatic Systems in Sanford, N.C. "It drives us to more sophisticated products."
The EPA, working in conjunction with utilities and pool industry stakeholders, expects to finalize its connected criteria this summer.
Giving pumps more 'flex'
Manufacturers may soon have the freedom to develop products how they see fit.
The California Energy Commission currently stipulates that pool pumps must have cap-start cap-run or permanent split capacitor motors, which are said to be 5- to 8 percent more efficient than cap-start induction run motors.
That's always been something of a sticking point with manufacturers who've felt restrained by these limited design standards.
"They took a motor configuration and said, 'You can only use this.' In reality, the motor manufacturer could make a cap-start induction run motor, currently outlawed, just as efficient — if not more efficient –— than one of the allowed technologies," Farlow says.
The agency now is proposing to amend its Title 20 energy-efficiency standard for pool and spa equipment to allow, essentially, any kind of motor configuration so long as the pump meets certain performance measures.
"Now that motor efficiency performance is actually being reported in the CEC database, we have a basis on which to recommend a performance standard," says Gary Fernstrom, who was instrumental in developing Title 20 and now works semi-retired as a consultant for the Pacific Gas & Electric Co. in San Francisco.
The California Energy Commission currently is working with the pool industry to help develop new standards. It expects to publish draft regulations in August, followed by a series of public workshops to gather industry input.
Opportunities in auditing
A variable-speed pump is a highly cost-effective upgrade; yet, the pool has been overlooked by those whose very job is to identify energy-savings opportunities.
Home performance auditors are contractors who typically work on behalf of a utility provider or state-funded energy program. They assess a home's power consumption and recommend products to consumers who are in the market for greener, cleaner appliances.
"Traditionally, their focus has not been on the pool," Farlow says.
Efforts are underway for auditors and the pool trade to collaborate on energy conservation programs.
"We're trying to help them understand how much contribution the pool can make to the home's energy savings," Farlow says. "If you look at how home energy is allocated, it's a big slice of the pie. It's an opportunity to reduce that slice to a sliver."
That's why it's something of a coup for the industry that Energy Upgrade California is incentivizing homeowners to modernize their pool equipment.
Funded by customers of investor-owned utility providers, under the purview of the California Public Utilities Commission, the initiative offers a $1,000 rebate on every improvement project that yields a 10 percent reduction in energy use. (The program caps off at $4,500.) Projects must be considered whole home upgrades, meaning you have to make several improvements at once to be eligible. As an example, a homeowner can upgrade the HVAC, hot water heater and insulation, achieving a 40 percent energy conservation. That's a $4,000 rebate.
As of this year, pool pumps are part of the equation, bringing opportunities for the trade to sell and install equipment.
California could be a launching pad for similar efforts. As home performance initiatives gain traction nationwide, Farlow anticipates more utilities broadening the scope of their programs to include swimming pools.
"The thing is we're at the table now," he says. "We're being considered in the scheme of a whole home energy retrofit, which is huge for our industry."

Who can legally enter your property without consent?
I ask this as I am a township board member and it was brought to us again to join the county Junk ordinance. We have elected to stay out of it in the past and plan to reject it once again as we on the board do not think we need any outside agency telling our residents what is junk and what is not. To that end I ask who can enter your property without your consent? Could the designated enforcement person (non-deputized) for the junk ordinance walk your property looking for items? Do I have to let the equalization folks measure my home from the outside, as they look for additions I may have made? Can a DNR officer walk my woods and just say he is counting deer? Yes I am trying to hide shit, thats the reason we live in BFE. I dont want just anybody to know what I own or what is hiding in the barn or what is being stored behind the garage.

there is no black and white answer to your question, and it is an issue that is litigated on and off over the years.
as an example, the former State Assessors Board, which integrated into the State Tax Commission has issued several recommended procedures for Assessors and Auditors and County Tax Collection officers (which are often deputized) for how they go about their field inspection duties.
a keyword for your attorney or legal research would be case law related to "curtilage" - this will be even more litigated going forward as more and more, light/small drone use is approved and/or just performed on American soil by civilian / government.
as for your equalization/assessor - the SAB/STC's statement is loosely worded as: to walk/view/photograph/measure unless asked/demanded to leave, putting personal safety first. IF there is current litigation pending, to contact the attorney that made an appearance first for a request to do so - and if that inspection is refused to make an "estimate".
some assessors can't measure shit properly with a laser so I'm not so sure it's a good idea to have them making wild assed guesses from the road, or via a hot air balloon...
if you don't want the ordinance folks, or DNR on your property make it as difficult to gain entry to the entire site as possible. deep ravine like ditches, fences, tightly woven coniferous trees with a gated driveway have a tendency to make most government employees simply say "fuckitol"

I hate playing the games but one bust at times but as you said we can make it more difficult. We had a personal friend that owned a decent size metal working shop 60-80 employees. Not skilled labor, basicly uneducated folks making a living punching and welding steel. One person was let go and they called MIOSHA with a complaint. In real life you will never be 100% legal and safe and in the low end of the market Im sure its more so but I have been there many times and would say there were no gross dangers. Anyhow when the inspectors came the owner got on the PA and annouced a paid day off. All the workers left, then the main braker for the plant was opened. It gets dark quick with out lights. The inspectors were left for their inspection with no lights or power. Shit thing to do but funny!!!
I ask all this as I hold all the permits and licenses to manufacture explosives and fireworks from the ATF and locals. Been doing it for years. Don't need some hilljack walking up taking measurements with a Marlboro hanging out of his mouth looking at my drying racks of product. Would be a bad day for many.

anytime you have the possibility of a civil or criminal court case involved then games are had by definition.
attorney and court fees add up exponentially - and the courts always tack on huge penalty/administration and interest fees as well.
so... there's a huge financial incentive to have parties on both sides play games.
e.g. I know of paving and asphalt/excavating companies that move all of their equipment to a vacant piece of land in the most remote part of BFE that has low property tax millages to establish situs for 12/31 of each year so their personal property tax bill is lower than where they are headquartered, or do most of their work. they're the #1 taxpayer in that community even though they're only there for 1 day but it saves them quite a bit of property tax expense vs. if they had been on a job site in Detroit on tax day...
and having been employed by local/regional government on and off for most of my career - I can tell you that proper signage indicating a safety hazard is quite enough to deter most governmental employees from simply poking/prodding where they don't belong
I was part of a crew that went through the old pfizer labs in Rochester hills where they made penicillian. I'm alergic to penicillian. the waivers I had to sign, and hazmat suit I was supposed to wear were enough for me to decline that part of the process, and I relied upon photographs from team members and worked on crunching the numbers for that assignment rather than physically viewing the site

Today's wedding styled shoot features a 1920s-inspired theme with pops of color — gold, ivory, peach, and pink. Think: Great Gatsby! The bride wore a satin v-neck wedding gown, accessorized with a pearl statement necklace and headband, while the groom wore a classic black tuxedo, accessorized with a bow tie. A sequined and balloon covered backdrop served as the focal point along with clocks to prepare for the stroke of twelve. Floral arrangements included roses, hydrangeas, scabiosa pods, pine cones, and greenery. We love how the natural elements are sparkling with glitter, and let's not forget the champagne toast. A New Year's Eve celebratory necessity. Cheers, y'all, here's to 2014!

Council of Europe Anti-Racism Commission to prepare report on Denmark
Strasbourg, 17.10.2011 - A delegation of the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) visited Denmark from 19 to 23 September 2011 as the first step in the preparation of a monitoring report. During its visit, ECRI's delegation gathered information on the implementation of the recommendations it made to the authorities in its previous report of 2006 and discussed new issues that had emerged since.
The delegation held meetings in Copenhagen with representatives of all relevant ministries, other competent authorities and human rights NGOs. It also visited the Sandholm Centre for Asylum Seekers where it met with representatives from the Danish Red Cross and the Danish Immigration Service.
Following this visit, ECRI will adopt a report in which it will make a fresh set of recommendations on measures to be taken by the authorities to address racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance in the country. Among these, three will be revisited two years after the publication of the report as part of an interim follow-up procedure.
In its 2006 report, ECRI expressed concern about: the rules concerning spousal and family reunification; mother-tongue education which should be provided to all children in Denmark in a non-discriminatory manner; and the negative rhetoric against Muslims.
In the same report, ECRI further noted that asylum seekers pending their status determination did not have the right to work or study outside the asylum centres and that NGOs and other specialised bodies were not provided with sufficient funds to assist minority groups adequately. ECRI recommended that the "start allowance" be scrapped since this provision amounts to indirect discrimination against newly arrived migrants and refugees.
ECRI is a human rights body of the Council of Europe, composed of independent experts, which monitors problems of racism, discrimination on grounds of ethnic origin, citizenship, colour, religion and language, as well as xenophobia, antisemitism and intolerance, prepares reports and issues recommendations to member States.

Hi everyone,
It's been a long time since I posted anything, but I thought I'd post a link to some progress pix of my daughter's Kid Rex costume. I'm converting last year's Clone Grunt to a Capt. Rex. I'm going with the "realistic" style since that's the armor we've got.
I used rubber cement as an inexpensive masking fluid, note the shoulder bell. The mantle is scratch-made and still a WIP. I'll be weathering the armor with a black wash and sponging it on. I'll post pix later. Still gotta make the bucket. :cry
She'll be 9 in September and wants to "troop" with the 501st. :)
As always, constructive comments welcome. Thanks.
Chris B.

In almost every writing course I've taken I've been reminded of the importance of beginning in media res—in the middle of things. Explication is superfluous; no one really needs to know what happened before the shoe dropped, before the letter arrived to the cupboard under the stairs, before she decided to cut his hair. The way I have been taught to regard time is that because it is linear, some parts are more important—or, at least, more interesting—than others.
Not everyone is taught that, but most people believe it—that life only really begins after some point, a specific age or event. Life can change in grand, sweeping ways that can knock you off your feet and point you in new directions but it's not always tidal waves. Every day you make a decision to live your life a certain way and that's you setting your course. We're powerful in that way.
"We can never know what to want,
Because living only one life, we can neither
Compare it with our previous lives
Nor perfect it in our lives to come"
-Milan Kundera
The way I read that, is that the true unbearable lightness of being is deciding what to do with all your potential energy. The possibilities in every day of living, a new start every single day.
In "Goodbye to All That" Joan Didion writes: "It is easy to see the beginnings of things and harder to see the ends." But I think both are impossible to grasp. I think we all exist in the gray area between the black and white beginnings and endings, never quite sure when the moment started but always in it. Telling our own stories just by moving along, in media res.
And maybe time isn't linear; maybe it's circular. Everything in our personal experience could support that idea: have you, on personal level, ever witnessed time ending? Yes, experiences end but how can you ever be sure that something is really over? Maybe nothing ends, maybe things just move to the periphery of our vision where we can never quite catch sight of it. I could believe that. I could believe that entire worlds are caught in motion just around the corner.

Pascal Jolivet Sancerre 2008
Sauvignon Blanc from Loire, France
Winemaker's Notes
The wine comes from three vineyards: "Les Caillottes", a very chalky soil, situated at Bué en Sancerre, representing 50 % of the blend; "Les Terres Blanches", the highest hill to the west, with a basis soil of argilo-calcaires, representing 30% of the blend; and "Silex", to the east, where the soil is much stoner and rich in silex, representing 20% of the blend.
Pale, whitish straw in color. The nose is very fresh, very clean with notes of lime peel, green herbs, black currant; typical, not aggressive. On the palate it is fresh and tightly wound; acidity is tempered by very subtle residual sugar; very clean; alive, racy, youthful. Overall, a dry and elegant wine, well balanced. The different origin of soils express fully their differences and their similarities. Slow evolution, very typical Sancerre.
Critical Acclaim
Wine & Spirits - "Classic flavors of pear, guava and lime are enlivened by brisk acidity and a pungent flintiness, demonstrating a delicate harmony of components and a fine, silky texture."
Pascal Jolivet Winery
The house of Pascal Jolivet is one of the youngest and most dynamic in the Loire Valley. Founded in 1985, this specialist in the wines of Sancerre and Pouilly-Fume has very quickly gained a leading position with the Michelin-starred restaurants of France. Pascal owns an estate of more than 40 acres evenly divided between two appellations.
He believes strongly in letting nature make the wine as much as possible, and seeks to tame the more aggressive qualities of the Sauvignon Blanc variety. His wines show the benefits of stainless steel vatting with naturally occurring yeasts. They are fermented cool rather than cold and are left of their lees for four to six months, gaining subtle but complex aromas as a result.
The Sancerre and Pouilly-Fume both originate from the Jolivet estate. The Sancerre is a composite of the three soil types in the district: calcareous clay, limestone, and flint. It is more flowery and subtle than many of its type. Pouilly-Fume, from the opposite bank of the Loire, comes from a large diversity of glacial soils and is normally more austere and minerally.

About LoireView a map of Loire wineries Chenin Blanc, Muscadet and Sauvignon Blanc. For reds, Cabernet Franc takes center stage but the region also has plantings of Pinot Noir and Gamay. The AC of Cremant de Loire is popular – these are the sparkling wines of the Loire, usually made with Chenin Blanc.
Notable FactsAs for which grapes you find in which regions… Starting on the Atlantic Coast and moving east - Muscadet hails from the region of the same name, within the larger Nantes district, right on the Atlantic coast. The wines are dry, citrusy and pleasant, but rarely powerful or intensely aromatic. Just inland from Nantes is Anjou-Samur, home to Savennières, an excellent source of dry Chenin Blanc. To the east is Touraine, where you'll find the popular white region of Vouvray - Chenin Blanc shines in Vouvray, which can be dry, off-dry or sweet – the majority of those found in the states are a lovely and food-friendly off-dry. In the same district, Cabernet Franc makes delicious, delicate and elegant reds from Bourguil and Chinon. Finally, in the Upper Loire area, Sancerre and Pouilly Fumé turn out Sauvignon Blancs of razor sharp acidity and minerality.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

FLINT, MI -- After pleading guilty to two charges of gambling violations, two video poker operators were ordered by a circuit court judge here to pay a $200,000 fine to the state and $80,000 in restitution to the Michigan State Police. The financial penalty is the largest ever imposed for this type of crime in Michigan.
Michael P. Kremski, 55, of Grand Blanc and Robert A. Murray, 54, of Flint were described as ringleaders of a video poker operation that made illegal payoffs to customers in a dozen bars. Kremski is owner of Advance Coin. Both men received probation sentences of five and three years, respectively, avoiding a possible 10-year prison sentence, said local press outlets.
Five bar owners testified against the operators, including one man who owned 10 of the route's bars. The bar owners collectively have been ordered to pay $148,000 in fines and received probation rather than prison time.

I believe I am prepared for some stinging. I'm not sure how I will react if I screw up and get a hundred or more at a time.
If you have never been stung before and dont know if youre one of those people that goes into anaphylactic shock you can try this.
My dog likes to "snap" at the bees when she's down by the hives with me. She got nailed on the tounge. The antics that followed were amusing. (Sneezing and some head shaking).

I'm 18 from London. (Sorry I don't know if this is an American website so if things are a bit different) I'm leaving school in June and taking a gap year before going to uni to do French and Spanish. I'm looking for work in France and Spain in my year out and was wondering if teaching english was a feasible option I took a weekend tefl course for example. I've been bombarded by so many courses on the internet when I've searched and heard so many different things. Some people say if can speak english and have any tefl you'll easily find a job, others say you need a degree, others say you need experience to get a job. I was hoping you could clarify things for me please. I already speak quite good French and Spanish and am only looking for something to help pay my way.
Thanks in advance.

text: This May, it has been exactly 10 years that Aljona Savchenko/Robin Szolkowy teamed up and started training under Ingo Steuer. I think they deserve their own cheering and news thread. A video collage was published to celebrate their amazing career: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=622853117743225&set=vb.170719959698522&type=2&theater Aljona and Robin's achievements include four World titles, eight consecutive titles at Worlds and a medal at each Grand Prix event of their career since they started competing on the GP in fall 2004. At a training camp combined with vacation in Florida, the team and Ingo Steuer started working on the new programs, according to this Icenetwork article: http://web.icenetwork.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20130517&content_id=47785416&vkey=ice_news I try to get going this thread by asking you What is your favorite program of Aljona and Robin?

|ajp''''''' if you are looking for paper that fine; you don't need it, i mean, use a ultra fine polishing compound,, one brand is called gurlers rouge' it is so fine you will wish it was gritter, i use it last to completely blend the touch up in........ it is so fine you can polish your watch crystal if you want to,, or eye glasses''''''
|Where do they sell 1500-2000 grit sandpaper? The finest I can find at local hardware stores is 500 grit.
|i think the biggest problem made is useing the brush on the touch up paint. its to large;;;; if you have just a small hood chip, just shake well, then use the brush to put 1 drop of paint on, say a knife blade. then use a straight pin, hep that small, just touch the pin in the paint drop, grt just a small drop on the end of the pin , and set it in the crater, it will fill. you might need a second drop in a few min,,, then in a hour, use just tooth paste, keep it wet and slowly polish till the chip is gone.... the object is less is better'' just put the paint in the crater ,none on the paint;;;;oh yea,, good strong reading glasses, and light, i have a small lite i put in my mouth..one last thing, on my 2014 i just put on a Magnet Bra, what a great product,, its like the signs people put on the side or doors, very thin magnetic, and nothing can get under. with this you wont have any chips to fix;;; see pics go to Magnetbra.com 50$
Thats something I didn't know! I stalked your profile a bit and saw you're in 'the hills, TX" a quick google showed several places around about but none are within an hours drive. I often forget how big America is compared to Scotland!

I live in a rural part of scotland. Half an hours drive to Dundee, the nearest city (tiny compared to edinburgh, glasgow, london, etc.) Yet there is one here. Google is your friend, so is the phone book! Someone is bound to know of somewhere in a city close to yourself!

i appreciate the response, but even if such a company does exist in the states, i doubt such a specialized service would be available in the small, rural town where i live
I don't know if it exists in the usa but in the uk there is a compant called 'chips away' they specialise in small nody damage and do a good job. Someone went up the side of my car scratching poop out of it. Cost me 70 pounds and you barely notice the difference. Not perfect but a million miles better than before!

Seeking advice:
I have a '12 5DR Titanium in Kona Blue. A few run-ins with salt/rock trucks the past couple winters has left me with several rather large chips on the hood and front fenders and some road rash on the front bumper.
I've noted this issue a few times in discussions on other boards within this forum when discussion has focused on paint quality, which I think is lacking a bit for my car. In any event, I'm looking to fix the problem and I'm trying to decide whether I should do it myself or pursue the professional body shop route.
Here are the issues I'm dealing with. First, cost is an issue. Plus, we're talking about an "economy" daily driver here. I've never dealt with a body shop before, so I have no idea what sort of cost I'm looking at. I'm not even sure if a body shop would fix each individual chip, or paint the entire hood. Would it even be worth my time to consider this option?
However, while I'm not looking for my car to look brand new again, I'm not sure I'd be capable of adequately addressing this issue given my lack of experience and the sheer number of chips we're talking about. I've priced "do-it-yourself" kits such as Dr. ColorChip, and while they seem reasonable in both price and ease of use, I'm not sure if it would be worth my time and money to come up with sub-standard results on my own if I could spend a bit more and have a professional do it.
I'm interesting in finding out what people here think. Thanks in advance.
stephenellis >> Been a long time for this thread. But! I should have updated it (my bad!). The question is >> which "cutting compound"? So! I realized that most of the 'good' stuff works far faster than I do (I.E. I was trying to hard). So I tried a 'consumer friendly' product (read 'idiot proof?) called "scratch doctor". I had to apply it several times in spots, but it worked ( note: so slowly you just cannot overdue it). Another tip: Often, 'touch-up paint' is to thick. If your lucky enough to have a dupli-color spray (or equivalent), spray some paint into the cap, and use a good appropriate sized brush (you clean the area 1st of course).
So, Safety over efficiency?

Get help & advice
If you are having problems becoming pregnant, there are a number of resources you can use to help you identify and cope with your fertility issues:
Seeing your GP
If you are concerned about getting pregnant, your age and general health determines how quickly you need to seek help from your GP.
If you:
- are over 35 - make an appointment with your GP after six months of trying for a baby, as fertility tests can take time to complete and your age may affect the treatments available to you.
- are under 35 and healthy - make an appointment after 18 months to two years of trying for a baby.
- have a condition that affects fertility (such as, for a woman, irregular periods, pelvic inflammatory disease, or for a man, having undescended testicles) – make an appointment with your GP after six months as it is more likely that a problem will be detected.
For information on the types of tests your GP may offer, see:
Getting emotional support
It can be difficult to appreciate just how stressful infertility can be unless you have been through it yourself. Patients often report that they didn't realise this early enough.
Your family and friends may not fully understand what you are going through and sometimes they can say the wrong thing.
To read more about patients' personal experience of infertility treatment and their tips for handling it, read:
Joining a support group
To help you through what many people describe as the 'emotional rollercoaster' of infertility treatment, you may want to consider joining a support group. There you will find people in similar circumstances to your own, who will understand what you are going through.
Your GP or fertility clinic can advise you on support groups in your area, or you can contact Infertility Network UK.
There are also numerous 'virtual' support groups on the internet, such as:
- Infertility Network UK (IN UK) website
- Fertility Friends website
- AceBabes wesbite
- More to life website
Getting counselling
Going through fertility treatment can sometimes put a strain on your relationship with your partner, although many patients tell us that, in the end, their experience brought them closer together.
It is often useful to talk about your feelings with someone who doesn't know you or your partner (if you have one). Counselling can help you explore your feelings, become clearer about your situation and find new ways of coping.
Your fertility clinic will offer you an opportunity to talk to a counsellor. Sometimes they will provide free counselling session(s), and sometimes you will have to pay for this. Check with your clinic to find out what they offer. Counselling will help you understand the implications of the treatment you are undergoing.
To find out more about counselling and how it can help you and your partner, see:

Stanislav V'Soske revolutionized the carpet industry in 1924 by inventing the modern hand-tufting technique of rug making. Since then, family-owned V'Soske Inc. has always set a high standard in the design community for textiles that help define interior space, a standard sustained in 1979 with the appointment of Ellen Hertzmark and Roger McDonald as directors of design. In 1989, the AIA recognized the company with an Institute Honor Award for its collaboration with architects and, in 2012, New York's Center for Architecture exhibited V'Soske's work in a retrospective entitled "Architecture in Transition, 1979-1993."
The way we prefer collaboration is early on in the project. Our clients know that we feel the floor is an integral part of architecture—that plane is the most important surface in the building's design. It affects the resolution of the walls, the ceiling, and the space as a whole. The materials that we use are so important to us, too—whether they are refractive or absorbent, so that the rug responds to the ambient and direct light, for instance, in the space. We use wool and silk, and the silk acts as a guide to push light onto the piece itself, just as the yarn weight of the wool adds to the rug's refraction.
In order to "landscape" a space, we need to know the "voice" of that space. One thing that people don't realize is that if a rug is too small, it will ruin a room because the eye will pull inward to focus on it. You want the eye to fall out to the entire space, all the way to the walls, to see the architecture.
Our New York Center for Architecture retrospective last year was called "V'Soske Rugs by Architects: Architecture in Transition, 1979–1993," and that period really was a time of great change. Each of the architects we worked with viewed the floor plane differently. Roger Ferri wanted two figures with the sea surrounding them. Alan Buchsbaum asked for a "pillow rug"—with a hearth and an edge that looked like it was burned away from that hearth. Tod Williams, FAIA, and Billie Tsien, AIA, asked for a sense of walking through a field of green and dropping a silk scarf.
Our process is about going to the design's limit, then restraining it so that it's in tune with the architecture. It's also about a craft tradition. When we discuss what we're going to do with the architect, we have to pass all of that information on to our plant and production managers who, in turn, pass it forward to the dye master, the tufters, and the balance of the team of craftsmen. So, in the end, it's a constant dialogue to ensure that the hand of the architect passes fully through, from the time we talk to the time the rug is completed. What's wonderful about architects is that they love the design process as much as we do. Sure, we love the end result, but we love the process of doing it more. —As told to William Richards

I have a 1965 vintage colt Python that I inherited from my father. It has been a reliable and fun handgun up to this point. Last night I was using it for a Pin Match and in the course of approx 50 to 60 rds, I had 6 failure to fire. Asking around, many people thought that it might be the CCI 500 primers I was using. I suspect that it may be a weak mainspring, it is 45 years old after all. I've never had any problems firing single action, but using it for pins, I was mostly firing double action.
The only other issue I can think might be that I didn't seat the primers all the way. I can't really rule that out. The misfired rds had noticeably shallower dimples in the primers. They did fire when I ran them again.
Numrich arms has no mainsprings in inventory. I called Colt, and they referred me to Jack First Distributors. I was going to call them a bit later.
Any other sourcing out there?
Any other recommendations as to the cause? (I will get the mainspring changed regardless, it's led a long happy life.)
Thanks in advance.

Phoenix Ready for Horizon League Championship Saturday
By: Jill Wunrow (@JillWunrow)
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) - The Green Bay men's and women's cross country teams will be competing in the 33rd Horizon League Cross Country Championship being held Saturday, Oct. 27 at the Dannehl National Cross Country Course on the UW-Parkside campus in Kenosha, Wis., hosted by UW-Milwaukee.
The meet kicks off with the women's race beginning at 11 a.m. followed by the men's race at 12 p.m. with results and awards to follow.
With Butler being the 14-time defending champion on the men's side and three-time defending champion on the women's side, a new champion will be crowned with the Bulldogs no longer being a member of the Horizon League. Loyola appears to be the favorite on the men's and women's side but the field is wide open with the Phoenix also looking to make some noise in the standings. Loyola finished as the runner-up in the men's race the past five years while the Loyola women were third in 2011 behind Youngstown State after finishing in second in 2009 and 2010.
This season the Phoenix women are having its best season in program history, winning the Falcon Invite Sept. 15 before running to a third-place team finish at the Midwest Open Sept. 8, finishing ahead of in-state and Horizon League rival Milwaukee on the same course the Horizon League Championship will be held.
Green Bay is being led by freshman Sarah Mauel (Green Bay, Wis.) who won the Falcon Invite, finished third at the Midwest Open and ran to a fifth place finish at the UIC opener to kick start her collegiate career. Senior Areanna Lakowske (Sparta, Wis.) has been solid for the Phoenix this year placing second in the Falcon Invite and finishing in the top 10 in both the Midwest Open (8th) and UIC Opener (10th).
"Areanna is very unselfish and humble," said head coach Mike Kline. "It doesn't matter what grade anyone is in, everyone wants everyone else to do their best."
On the men's side, junior Alexander Kimble (Green Bay, Wis.) and sophomore Andrew Sorenson (Onalaska, Wis.) have paced the Phoenix all season with their performances and hope to lead Green Bay to improve on its ninth place finish in 2011.
Kimble finished in 17th place in the UIC Opener while Sorenson was 27th. Kimble and Sorenson finished fifth and sixth respectively in the Falcon Invite while the tandem placed in the top 60 in the field of 122 runners at the Midwest Open.

Including Green Bay, eight teams will be competing in the men's 8K race while nine teams will be competing in the women's 5K competition.
AWARDS: Awards for both the men's and women's championships will be presented to the first and second place team.

Wayne Law Examines US and Cuba Trade Relations with April 7 Lecture
DETROIT (March 18, 2009) – Wayne State University Law School and the Wayne Law International Law Student Association are pleased to announce a lecture by Jake Colvin of the National Foreign Trade Council from 12:15-1:20 p.m. on Tuesday, April 7, 2009, in the Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium. The lecture is titled "The Last Throes of the Embargo? What changes in Washington and Havana mean for the future of U.S.-Cuba relations."
"As president of the International Law Students Association, I am extremely excited for Colvin's visit to Wayne Law," said Sonia Salah. "I am eager to hear his thoughts on America's continued trade embargo against Cuba and how recent events in Washington D.C. will affect the overall relationship between our countries."
Since its enactment in 1962, the trade embargo with Cuba heavily limits all relations with the communist country. According to reports from Reuters, the Obama Administration has recently taken steps to ease restrictions on Cuban-American travel and the selling of agricultural and medical goods to the country. Additionally, many political figures, such as Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva and ministers from the Union of South American Nations, have declared that it's time for the embargo to end.
Colvin's lecture will discuss his most recent report, "The Case for a New Cuba Policy," which features calls by a number of current and former administration officials for changing U.S. Cuba policy.
Colvin is a fellow with the New Ideas Fund, a group that supports progressive approaches to U.S. national security and foreign policy. He is also Vice President for Global Trade Issues at the National Foreign Trade Council (NFTC), a business association based in Washington, DC, whose mission is to promote an open, rules-based trading system. Prior to his current position, he directed USA*Engage, a business coalition established under the Council to promote U.S. diplomacy, trade and humanitarian assistance abroad.
Colvin has written on Cuba and other economic, political and foreign policy topics for a variety of outlets including the Chicago Tribune, Forbes.com, Miami Herald, Huffington Post and Comedy Central's Indecision2008.com. Colvin also served as a facilitator for poverty alleviation discussions at the Clinton Global Initiative in 2006 and 2007. Additionally, he was a member of John Kerry for President's international economic policy advisory committee and a media surrogate for economic policy issues at the Democratic Convention in 2004.
Originally from Long Island, New York, Colvin is a graduate of the Johns Hopkins School for Advanced International Studies and the University of Richmond.
The lecture is free and open to the public. Parking is available for $3.50 in parking structure #1 across from the Law School on West Palmer Street. For more information regarding this event, please contact the Wayne Law International Law Student Association via email at email@example.com.

Manchester school board sends two budgets to aldermen
MANCHESTER - The Board of School Committee voted Monday to send two budgets to the aldermen, one totaling $159 million and the other a tax cap budget of $155.7 million.
The board also voted to approve a $2.8 million bond for new technology and teacher training.
The bond money enabled the board to subtract roughly $800,000 from the $160 million budget originally proposed by Superintendent Thomas Brennan as the minimum amount required to meet state standards.
The budget votes mirror the action taken by the board last year, when it sent two budgets to the aldermen in order to comply with the tax cap.
The board voted 10-5 in support of the larger budget. The vote for the tax cap budget was 9-6.
School board member Sarah Ambrogi was among the yes votes, but she described it as a "feel good" motion.
"If we do present a higher number," she said, "I think it would be appropriate to talk about more than minimum standards with the aldermen. We've never had discussions about results."
Board member Christopher Stewart said he could not vote for a larger budget without stronger guarantees that student achievement would improve.
"At what point do we go back to the parents and say we'll see a better return on investment? When will we see a decline in the dropout rate ... or a closing of the gap of the NECAP scores?"
Brennan said he couldn't guarantee improvements in test scores with the larger budget.
"What I can say is if we continue to have large classes, our ability to meet those minimum standards diminishes," he said.
Board member Art Beaudry, who voted for the larger budget, criticized the vote to send two spending plans to the aldermen.
"I think it's embarrassing we're sending two budgets," he said.

Mamata's no-trust vote rejected in LS
The unity of the opposition parties against allowing FDI in retail appeared to have been shattered on the very first day of Parliament's winter session on Thursday. HT reports.delhi Updated: Nov 23, 2012 00:51 IST
The unity of the opposition parties against allowing FDI in retail appeared to have been shattered on the very first day of Parliament's winter session on Thursday as the UPA's outside supporters, the SP and the BSP, broke ranks from the BJP and Left parties that insisted on a voting on FDI.
Meanwhile, the Trinamool Congress went ahead with a no-confidence motion, which was rejected by Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar as it did not have the support of 50 MPs as is required. Besides the 18 TMC MPs, only three members of the Biju Janata Dal supported the current Lok Sabha's first no-confidence motion that failed to even cross the first hurdle.
SP leaders said while it wanted a discussion on FDI, it did not insist on voting on the issue.
CPI(M) leader Sitaram Yechury hoped the SP wouldn't change its anti-FDI stand. "We are in touch with the SP... BSP, however, has not said anything so far."
The SP's Ram Gopal Yadav said, "We are against FDI but not for piggybacking on the BJP."
The BSP, conveniently for the government, deflected the focus from FDI by raising the issue of reservation in promotion for SC/ STs in both Houses and left the others with the only option of shouting slogans in the din.
The government, meanwhile, has called an all-party meeting on Monday to seek a consensus on FDI discussions.

I'm considering teaching in Turkey, most likely in Istanbul. I've been teaching for five years and have lived in various countries. I would really like some useful and honest opinions about what it's like to live there. I only know two non-Turkish people who have worked there, and would just like a rounded view of the place before I make any definite decisions.
