Culturally Diverse Independent Films Highlight February GBC Film Festival
For the eleventh year in a row Great Basin College brings several independent films to town for moviegoers who enjoy something out of the ordinary. All films begin at 7 p.m. with tickets ($7 for the general public and $6.50 for students and senior citizens) available for purchase 45 minutes before the film starts. The only exception is the Feb. 11 showing of short films where tickets go on sale Jan. 11 at Duncan Little Creek and will also be sold at the door prior to the movie. As in past years, local culinary sponsors offer appetizers prior to the movie. Doors open at 6:15 p.m. at GBC and tables for appetizers will be set up in the solarium adjacent to the theater.
Films, culinary hosts and sponsors follow:
The GBC Film Committee welcomes all independent film lovers interested in selecting next year's films to contact committee chair Russ Minter at 775-777-6093.
"Our goal is to bring great films to Elko that have not appeared in local theaters for all film fans to enjoy," notes Minter.
The Film Festival is just one of several cultural events sponsored by the GBC Arts and Cultural Enrichment Committee.

Great Basin College's Art Gallery is Pleased to Announce A Brushwork Roundup: Western Paintings and Drawings by Craig Sheppard
The Great Basin College's Art Gallery presents A Brushwork Roundup: Western Paintings and Drawings by Craig Sheppard. A native of southwestern Oklahoma and former bronco rider in Madison Square Garden, Craig Sheppard was remembered as a prime mover in northern Nevada's cultural community in the years following World War II. He arrived at the University of Nevada in 1947 with the savvy of a seasoned cowboy and the experience necessary to teach most all courses in the art department he had been charged with rebuilding.
See the poster by clicking here!
Rather than proposing A Brushwork Roundup: Western Paintings and Drawings by Craig Sheppard, as a cross-section of the artist's career, the co-curators, Jim McCormick and Fred Reid have designed an exhibition that focuses on Sheppard's abiding fascination with horses.
Sheppard was not a one-dimensional painter; throughout his long career, the artist constantly reinvented himself. However, the one constant subject he returned to—even when he worked in France, Norway or other parts of Europe— was the horse and rider and variations on that theme. A Brushwork Roundup features works that reveal Sheppard's indebtedness to Picasso and the Surrealists. His late night painting marathons while living in Norway produced hundreds of sumi drawings of horses and riders, images that were more eastern than western. His "Yellow Slicker" series employs transparent watercolor wash at its most sublime, glowing passages of white paper speaking volumes against his equestrian subjects. And there are large abstract canvases, surfaces that are charged with passages of raw contrasting colors and uncharacteristic impasto.
Viewers can expect to be challenged by Sheppard's variations on the theme of horse and rider. The artist reached back to earlier times in Nevada when it was the least urban of all the states. Today the exhibit will resonate with those who venture beyond urban limits and encounter still existent ranches, cowboys and wild horses on Nevada's rangeland.
ABOUT: Co-curated by Jim McCormick and Fred Reid and organized by the Nevada Arts Council, A Brushwork Roundup: Western Paintings and Drawings by Craig Sheppard is part of the Nevada Touring Initiative–Traveling Exhibition Program. It was funded in part by the National Endowment for the Arts and the Nevada State Legislature. The Nevada Arts Council is a division of the Department of Tourism and Cultural Affairs.
Presented by Great Basin College and the GBC Arts and Cultural Enrichment (ACE) Committee!

NJ teen breaks femur after using t-shirt to zipline
Posted August 28th, 2014 @ 8:42pm
A 15 year old New Jersey teen broke his femur and injured his foot after falling from a zipline that he was on using a t-shirt.
The t-shirt wasn't making him go too far so his friends convinced him to let go from 30 feet in the air and they would catch him.
They...didn't...catch...him. Ooops.

Brazilian Bastos was on his way back to fitness after having been out of action since September 16, but he relapsed.

Bastos, who was widely expected to leave Lyon in the summer, has scored three goals in four Ligue 1 matches this season and has become a key player for Les Gones.

Are RSS feeds broken again?
I have been using RSS feeds to keep me informed about postings on 6 Nikonians forums.
For some reason 3 of these, the D700, the Sports and the Motor Sports seem to have stopped working. That is, since 22 February none of these have been updating and my RSS newsreader shows the broken link symbol for each of them.
The other 3 Nikonian RSS links I have do not show a broken links (but are updated very infrequently).
All of my other RSS feeds (I have about 25 or so) seem to be working fine.
Has something changed at Nikonians?
Visit my Nikonians gallery.
Visit my website.
#1. "RE: Are RSS feeds broken again?" | In response to Reply # 0GerryinAus Nikonian since 27th Aug 2010Mon 04-Mar-13 05:27 AM
Since there has been no response to the OP I have investigated the broken RSS feeds a bit further.
The links which still work look like this in my RSS Readers (NetNewsWire and Vienna):
The ones which do not work look like this:
Forum 226 is the D700 forum, 190 is the English Cafe and 167 is the Sports forum.
Interestingly, an RSS link to the D700 forum I created some months ago as a bookmark in Firefox shows two URLs, a Feed Location and a Site location. This still works correctly, opening the D700 forum page. The Site location is
The Feed Location is
When I recreate the same RSS link bookmark in Firefox now it does NOT Work, showing documents from the Nikonians Blog instead of the D700 forum. The respective Firefox links are now - Site Location:
and Feed Location:
When I recreate these links using my RSS reader they also incorrectly show documents from the Nikonians blog and not from the Forum where the RSS link was obtained. My readers also tell me that I am trying to create an existing link if I create them in a row. That is, it cannot differentiate between the RSS links from the 3 forums.
I hope this provides sufficient information for the problem to be corrected.

Agreed, Pat, and the Republicans could also use a few more Mark Hatfields.
Amazing the left found something they like about Ronald Reagan now that they need him. Zing!
I suspect Oliphant is suggesting that the wisdom, and ability to compromise across the aisle gives strength to America. That principle is lost on Cruz, Lee, and the Republicant's House at the cost to America's strength, and economic disaster.
Amazing that there used to be house leaders who could work with the oposition. The right wing boneheads these days don't have a clue how government works.
Amazing the left found something they like about Ronald Reagan now that they need him.
Totally missed the point, there, sport. Democrats have historically been willing to meet, negotiate, and compromise. Not so this batch of TeaBirchers. And we sure as hell don't need another St. Ronnie screwing things up again.
for those of you that don't need the media on the left or the right. for those of you who might be curious about how a minority of a minority can hold the nation hostage. check out this link.
I don't understand why this isn't front page news, you have to dig through cspan to find it.
the government shutdown is controlled by ONE SINGLE PERSON. seems rather anti-American and anti-democratic to me.
check out the link
this is almost a bill of attainder.
The government shutdown continues apace
But soon the Tea Party will have to save face
A financial default can never be arty
And the people now know it's de fault of de Party
The people have spoken: blackmail is a crime
A damn dirty shame and a waste of our time
Tea Party insanity? Quite clear to see
They're all drinking Koolaid, it seems, and not tea
And now they are trapped, though lacking in thought
They're trying to find a brand-new plot to plot
Like Christie, who opted for lap band, not trainer
The Party will blame not themselves, they'll blame Boehner
Blame the Neuter. The current GOP is his legacy.
Ahem. Meseems that folks around here may not be keeping up on their bullcrit. http://tinyurl.com/kw9xtmk This drawing, not really a cartoon, is an obvious "tip" of the hat to Chris Matthews' new book "Tip and the Gipper." As the blurb says: "TIP AND THE GIPPER is a magnificent personal history of a time when two great political opponents served together for the benefit of the country…[and] is the story of the kind of heroism we need today."
Right wingers borrow and spend off the books.
Alternative interpretation: If we pour enuf Irish whiskey into the current contestants, they may get sufficiently sloshed that they forget who their owners are and start believing all those pious fables about serving the American public.
I think that this is the most flattering drawing of either of these gentlemen that I can recall Mr. Rall ever drawing.
Shock! I suddenly realize that I have crossed from an alternate reality where Reagan was a conservative puppet, an old ex-actor who always seem to read from a script, with canned voice inflections and body language. Whose Hollywood patriotic clichés and reiterations of "Stay the course" drove us crazy. Whom Oliphant loved to draw as a clueless, wrinkled plank. This reality here must be better than the one I left … I hope?
Oh, I wish I had lived in this reality where Reagan was a Statesman and I hadn't been out of work for two years when he was military-spending Russia under the table. Did Japan get most of our electronics industry in this reality? Did Reagan take full credit for the collapse of East Germany and Russia in this time stream?
I must have crossed realities during my last operation. I apparently have some catching up to do. So, what's a Ted Cruz? Is he related to Tom?
there is no left in Washington, there is only right and more right.

Bliss Poetic Waxing Kit
DIY waxers, we think you'll be pleased to 'heat' our new and improved waxing kit, which now includes a microwaveable cup so you don't have to slave over the stovetop. (Hey, you already spend enough time there preparing dinner.) But even though the heating method is quicker and easier, the wonder wax itself remains the same, able to remove even the shortest hairs anywhere from eyebrow arches to ankles, practically painlessly. • same wonder wax • quick and easy heating • kit includes super skin cleanser and pre + post waxing oil
Bliss Poetic Waxing KitWrite A Review

If I could give it 0 stars I would..9/08/2015
So i thought that $50 was an insane price for a tub of hard wax in the first place, but I love Bliss products and figured this would probably be a great quality wax and worth the price. I am an esthetician and to save time and, well, money (though clearly not in this case) I usually wax myself - pits, brazilian, you name it, and I know what I'm doing. When I got home and opened the box to find a tiny cup NOT EVEN HALF FULL of wax I was so mad I wanted to return it right then and there. I would have been better off just paying to get it done since it looked about enough for 1.5 uses anyway.. but I decided to suck it up and try it, again hoping for quality, and in fact this wax is a JOKE! Hard to spread, stuck to my skin, painful and flaky.. Just not good. I so wish I could get a refund. As a long time bliss lover I am beyond frustrated and disappointed with this product. DO NOT BUY.
Pros: Uh.. it's a pretty color

I heard nothing from them . I sent Feb. and on the 23 the I was served with forclosurer papers. They sent back my payment.
I called and told them what had happen the money is in my bank couldn't I just sent it. I was told i was $5000.00 behind with late fees and lawyer fees.
$3000.00 for a lawyer to file a paper.
I ask for a payment plan. My house payments are 483.00. This is what plan I was offered send $2000. make 12 payments of 980.00.
980. x 12 =11,760.00
1 time + 2000.00
1year normal payments - 5796.00
= 7964.00 the 1 time payment - 2000.00
= 5964.00
I assume that the interest on $3000. is $2964. almost a 100%.
I have file chapter 13 and they said the new total is 9845.
They would not with me on payments. I would like to know if I have to pay them 3000. for a lawyer shouldn't I have the right to see that bill. Is that the real fee or did they add 2000 to it.

Now that I can start making payments again who gets them.
The funny thing is they have the same address just a different branch of Well Fargo. My loan is with HomeQ but Well Fargo filed the foreclosure papers. Then while reading other stories on Ripoff I see Home q listed as other companies,
How many mortage companies do Well Fargo have under different names.

My project traces the lives of the people who owned my home from 1926 until today. It included research of the architectural elements, items which were found in my home and research about the various homeowners.
Winnipeg, Manitoba
Canadian Pacific Railway
My project covers the actual construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway. I looked at the difficulties of building, the people who worked on it and much more. I used all the information I acquired to answer the question "What effect has the building of the Canadian Pacific Railway had on the new country of Canada?"
St. John's, Newfoundland & Labrador
Silver Fox Island
My project on Silver Fox Island explores the resources available and the determination of the people who struggled to survive on a small island in Bonavista Bay, NL. They depended upon the land, sea and the air for the necessities of life. When the opportunity was presented from the government, they uprooted their families and moved to larger communities in hope for a better life. These people are my family!

Emily Murphy
Looking back at the 1800s and early 1900s, women have come a long way in society. Emily Murphy played a major part in this evolution of rights and privilege of women. To learn more about her and her impact on Canada, watch my short film on Emily Murphy.

This company is based out of New York but clearly their staffing their cold callers from India and instructing them to speak very quickly. Normally, I find the customer service in India uses well-modulated speakers and they are always very polite. These people are neither. When I called their customer service and got "Jason Smith" with a strong Hindi accent, I asked him if that was his real name. He got very unfriendly to which I told him in Hindi that he was telling "jhoot," -a lie. Anyway, this company clearly has a criminal mission in mind if they train Indians to be rude in order to get customers. Don't have anything to do with them and if you do have such an encounter, please contact your state utilities commission and put them out of business. I am all for competition, but this kind of illegal, unregulated ripoff stuff needs to be stopped.

My phone has been unprotected for 40 days as I did not want to buy a case as I was to receive a case for free. I have not purchased a dock as I was to receive that for free as well. I use my phone for navigation daily and it has grown old trying to find a way to prop the phone and navigate in my new home town.
I called Costco who transferred me to Wireless Advocates but they only handle Online Sales not store sales. Costco says they do not handle the cell phone complaints.
It seems to me that when they received my rebate on 3/18/2013 they would send me a letter saying they were back ordered. Why wait until after they were to be delivered to send a letter saying another 60 days for Motorola to ship. What place takes 90 days to receive a product?

All the news that's fit to hack
2011-06-03 09:06:17
The PBS web site was hacked last weekend in retaliation for a WikiLeaks piece that appeared on its Frontline news program. An outfit called LulzSec took credit for the attack, one of several it launched against media sites that reported the WikiLeaks incident in a manner the group found objectionable. This takes "op-ed" to another level, a published outside opinion that's not simply juxtaposed with the original piece, but substituted for it. In this case, the substitute was a report that Tupac Shakur was alive and well in New Zealand, high satire meant to lampoon the respectable PBS organization. And so we had the customary wringing of hands, the lament that hackers are endangering the credibility of legitimate news sites. As if that weren't enough, we then learned that a hacker in China breached hundreds of gmail accounts, many belonging to American government and military officials. Perhaps this was somehow related to China's long-feared fire sale of its U.S. Treasury bond inventory. First, you hack into important email accounts to monitor, or even spoof, the inner workings of the economy you wish to destroy….or something. We've written about trust and violation, an aspect of social journalism that will only grow in importance. As individuals form social bonds with groups and institutions, and as those bonds act as accelerated conduits for news and other vectored content, the sources of that content will encapsulate the exchange of opinion. How that exchange takes place, how secure it will be from the force majeure of skillful disruption, remains to be seen. Mainstream journalism has entered this new space with a handicap: a concern for integrity that its most ardent practitioners have elevated to monasterial heights. We get that news is serious, and its dilution or disruption is not a good thing. Violence against newspapers, for example, has different meanings in different precincts. The Columbia Journalism School just released a major report called "The Story So Far: What We Know About the Business of Digital Journalism." The big news here is that the report contains numerous, albeit halting, references to "brands," a word that was previously verboten within the Basilica, judging from the remarks of a senior staffer at a university alumni dinner in the Bay Area in late 2009 (Full disclosure: I hold two degrees from Columbia, though I went further north for my M.F.A.). Whether an addendum on hacking the news appears, this appears to be an ongoing story.

SCHUBERT: German Lieder - High Voice, Vol. II
To play the media you will need to update yourFlash plugin.
Soprano voice
Composed by Franz Schubert (1797-1828). Vocal Score and CD+G. Published by Music Minus One (MO.MMOCDG4003).
Item Number: MO.MMOCDG4003
ISBN 1596154934. Accompaniment: John Wustman, piano.
A second volume of German Lieder for high voice from Schubert - these are beautiful and necessary components to every serious singer's training.

About CD+G
CD+G (CD+Graphics) is a special disc format in which simple graphics and text are stored in the sub channels of an audio disc. When you play a CD+G disc in a CD+G compatible player (like a karaoke machine), lyrics and images appear on the monitor or TV screen in time to the music. If you play a CD+G disc in a regular CD player, you'll still be able to hear the music and sing along to your favorite tracks, but the graphics features won't function. The CD+G format is a fun and useful learning tool!

In most games, inventory management is unlikely to be seen as a form of pleasure. Utilitarian and, perhaps, a necessary evil? Maybe. But fun? Not so much.
While inventory management seems a kind of compliment to the style of play of games like RPGs—after all, a large component of the RPG is collecting bigger and better weapons to compliment one's steadily increasing power—it tends to be an element of gameplay largely included as a means of creating boundaries for characters (the player shouldn't have access to everything and anything during their adventure) and authenticity (nor would they literally be able to). Basically, inventory management forces the player to make choices but very often not especially interesting ones. Since I have limited room to carry stuff around, should I take the +4 STR sword or the +5 STR sword? Not the trickiest of puzzles to solve in a gameplay environment.

A dictionary reference has little bearing to validity. Champagne is from Champagne in NE France just as Microsoft products come from Microsoft. Other Sparkling wines are Sparkling Wines and non Misrosoft Software is Software.
Champagne can be and is used to refer to any sparkling wine. So, I am reverting. Here's two dictionaries that support me:
A light wine, of several kinds, originally made in the province of Champagne, in France. [1913 Webster] Note: Champagne properly includes several kinds not only of sparkling but of still wines; but in America the term is usually restricted to wines which effervesce. [1913 Webster]
From WordNet (r) 1.7 [wn]:
champagne n 1: a white sparkling wine either produced in Champagne or resembling that produced there [syn: {bubbly}]
Novalis 22:15, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Bubble formation[edit]
Here some recent review article with lots of references and some nice picture. STill as ASAP/preview, not sure if it will be freely accessible afterwards.. here is the link:

what the f... ist "Price Chamfiction II."??? -- Kku 15:39, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
I've started the merge of the regional style into this article. TONS of work still need to be done to improve the format and prose of the article. I will be working on this article throughout the week with the hope of getting it to GA quality. AgneCheese/Wine 02:44, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
I think the opening para should be a little less surprised about English wine - we had quite major vineyards during Roman times, so that para could be cleaned up. OTOH, some English fizz is now world class and deserves its own section in this article eg :
Best non-Champagne fizz at IWC : http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2006/07/21/nwine21.xml (and a second wine got gold) "In blind tests, Nyetimber Classic Cuvée is regularly rated more highly than leading champagnes" http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?xml=/news/2006/10/28/nwine28.xml "I would prefer Nyetimber to all but the best champagnes" http://decanter.com/news/46424.html 'We have a patch of soil the Champenois would kill for,'
The Champenois had a bit of a Paris 76 moment with a blind tasting at which Nyetimber won, I'll see if I can dig up a reference FlagSteward 00:27, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
- I agree that England merits it own section. Feel free to add it. I was planning to myself once I have the free time. AgneCheese/Wine 03:03, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
- I only came here to add the possible Charmat process merger (everyone here should take a look at Talk:Champagne production for that discussion, it's an important one which also involves the proper name for that other article) but in passing I've just done a quick edit to get the UK stuff going in the right direction - no citations or anything I'm afraid, some of the ones above would be a start. Thinking more about
- As an aside, well done on the work you've done here - the more I think about it, the more vital I think these general articles are for the Wine Project, in feeding new readers into the hierarchy of wine articles. As such, I think See Also:'s are particularly valuable for this kind of article - I've done one for the UK section. FlagSteward 10:36, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for starting that section. I'll see what I can do about sourcing. I have to say that English sparkling wine is intriguing and I wish there were more distributors importing it into the US. With the changing climate and global warming, I keep hearing positive stuff.AgneCheese/Wine 19:24, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
I wouldn't get too excited about it :-), it's definitely a minority interest even here, and Nyetimber is priced similarly to the mainstream Champagne brands - they're doing a major expansion at the moment, but I guess they don't need to worry about exports for now. But it's kinda fun, especially if there's any French about :-)) PS I've upped the assessment to a B, I guess that GA must be a matter of time. But I think it would make sense to unify all the subtypes into country sections, so that the UK and US sections would be joined by France, Italy, FSU etc for consistency FlagSteward 02:09, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
I thought the shocked, "England? WINE?!" in the first paragraph was very amusing, myself. I had Nyetimber at a sparkling wine tasting a couple of years ago, and would like to know more about it. Does anybody know enough to write an article? By the way, we also had a Perrier-Joulet, and when tasted blind the Nyetimber was generally preferred. Just as an aside. --Raulpascal 18:45, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
If there is any injected gas the wine must be labeled as "Aerated Sparkling wine made with the addition of carbon dioxide".
I assume this is in just one jurisdiction? In which case it might make sense to say which one. I don't think I've ever seen this. -- richiau
Romans and Charmat[edit]
Though it should be noted that although the traditional method is more commonly used throughout the world, the Charmat method has been used in Italy since the ancient Roman Empire.
I was of the understanding that the Charmat method used technology that would be only found in post-Industrial Revolution society. Does anyone have information on Romans using a secondary fermentation method in metal vats to create sparkling (or even frissante) wines? If the Romans did so, would it not make sense to change the phrase in the above excerpt from "Charmat method," to "Charmat-style method" or something similar? Tthaas 16:03, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
- My guess is that the misunderstanding arises from the fact that producers of Prosecco Spumante (one of Italy's top Charmat method wines) like to boast that Prosecco has been around since ancient Roman times, as mentioned in the writings of Pliny the Elder - at best this may however refer only to prosecco as a grape variety, which is also used to produce still wines ("Prosecco Tranquillo") which is probably what the Romans drank. So I agree with you that it is unlikely that the Romans had devised a way to build the steel autoclaves used for the Charmat method, and have edited the paragraph accordingly. HAdG 21:00, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Something I disliked about the paragraph was the negativity surrounding the Charmat method. True, it is rather less poetic and more cost-efficient to have grapes ferment in large pressurised steel containers rather than in the bottle, but the wine obtained as a result is structurally different (typically: sweeter, fresher, fruitier - depending on the grapes used), and there is definitely no consensus that it is qualitatively inferior. Indeed, some Prosecco Spumante is produced by méthode Champanoise, but this wine is not at all regarded as being of better quality than the typical Charmat method Proseccos. I've re-worded the paragraph to remove this negativity. HAdG 21:00, 20 April 2008 (UTC)
Speaking of which, the sentence at the top that says Metodo Italiano sparkling wines can be sold at a slightly lower prices than méthode champenoise wines. subtly attempts to suggest that these wines are of poorer quality. The sad reality is that the prices of both Champagne and Prosecco di Cartizze are through the roof, and have nothing to do with production costs but are simply a result of high demand. Changed "sold" to "produced". And besides, the term "Metodo Italiano" is hardly used in Italy; the process is referred to as Metodo Charmat-Martinotti, crediting both the original inventor Martinotti and the later patent holder Charmat. HAdG 21:22, 20 April 2008 (UTC) //edit: sorry, that referred to another article, "sparkling wine production"

Thoughts on getting this up to a B[edit]
Well first and foremost, referencing is the big on. I take full responsibility for dropping the ball with this one. It was going to be one of my pet projects on cleaning up and expanding but I soon grew bored. :p Many of the major sparkling styles like Sekt, Asti etc need much more detail to merit the redirect going here. All in all, this article really needs a total rewrite. AgneCheese/Wine 01:46, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
Korbel brothers and the origins of american sparkling wine[edit]
Hi, I fixed some mistakes concerning the Korbel brothers and the american sparkling wine :
1 - The Korbel brothers weren't from Czechoslovakia because Czechoslovakia existed only from 1918 to 1993. In their nineteenth century era their country, Bohemia, was not yet a part of Czechoslovakia, which didn't yet exist, but a part of the Austrian-Hungarian Empire. Nevertheless they were czech people from Bohemia (just consult the external link I added to source that information : http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/F-Korbel-amp;-Bros-Inc-Company-History.html ). Only later, in 1918, Bohemia and other czech lands, along with Slovakia, will be a part of Czechoslovakia, but the Korbel's period is in no way related to the Czechoslovakian period.
2 - The Korbel brothers didn't immigrate in California in 1892, this is only the year in which they were supposed (according to the current version of the article) to begin production of sparkling wine in California. According to the page I formerly mentioned, they immigrated in 1852 and began production of sparkling wine in 1882, not in 1892. But this date (1882) doesn't come from the official Korbel website, so I didn't modified the former version of the article (1892). Could anybody check this source, please ?
3 - I added the source ( http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/F-Korbel-amp;-Bros-Inc-Company-History.html ) in the external links section ("On the origins of american sparkling wine").

There seems to be a revert war on whether Spumante should be merged or not merged into Sparkling wine. Please remember the three-revert rule and discuss your opinions on the merge here. - AKeen (talk) 17:47, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
- I want add Spumante voice!! If you don't want.it's censured!!Wikipedia not is free!!!Robyc73 (talk)
- Please note that the issue is a divergence from the status quo and we now have significant POV and WP:UNDUE weight issues since all the other sparkling wine styles, include ones with significantly more worldwide prominence than Spumante, such as Sekt, Cremant and Cava are already merged into the sparkling wine article. Roby seems to be editing with a marked POV (as evidence by his comments--Spumante already has a voice in the sparkling wine article), irrespective of the neutrality and weight issues. AgneCheese/Wine 17:52, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
- Seems that this merge was previously discussed. Makes sense to merge Spumante here then, if that was the previous decision. -AKeen (talk) 17:55, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
- Yes. I would sincerely love to have Roby's help on improving, with reliable sources and sound referencing of course, the coverage of Spumante within this article and also in the Italian wine article. But I fret that he is interpreting this as some slight if Spumante doesn't have its own article. Just like all the other significant regional sparklers are merged here, so to does Spumante have a "voice"--just like Cava, Sekt, Cremant, etc. It for the benefits of our readers, not our editors, that all these styles are merged together since most of the material overlaps and this can proud the reader a solid context of the information versus search for it piecemeal over the project. AgneCheese/Wine 17:58, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
I'm sorry but you,dear Agne27,aren't so neutrality!!Spumante must have more evidence that Cava,Sekt,and Champagne!!Robyc73 (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 18:05, 2 January 2009 (UTC). I think that add Spumante voice isn't so distructive or uncostrutive....Robyc73 (talk) and see please Francesco Scacchi Fabriano (AN) 1577 - 1656 http://www.francescoscacchi.it/Conferenza_Santelpidio_a_Mare.htm and I want add other voice about Francesco Scacchi!
- I think that the major styles/designations for sparkling wine (other than Champagne), such as Cava, Crémant, Sekt, and Spumante, could merit their own articles. (I've been thinking myself about writing Crémant and Sekt - but then again, there's a long list of wine-related things I've considered writing or improving...) I base that opinion on the fact that we have and accept individual articles for several individual French AOCs, and one common article for the 7 Crémant AOCs therefore doesn't seem too far fetched to me. Also, several of these wines are big sellers and are rather notable/known under their own umbrella names. However, such articles should be treated strictly as splinter articles of this "mother article" to avoid unnecessary repetition, and should therefore be relatively short and succinct. I see no need to repeat a lot of material on general production methods and general sparkling wine history. Instead, the splinter articles should focus on things that are specific for that type of sparkling wine, such as allowed or common grape varieties, production region(s), requirements, labelling, production volume and so on. Two good pieces of advice for anyone wanting to write such articles: start by adding material here, and avoid comparisons to Champagne to avoid POV and OR issues. Tomas e (talk) 18:40, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
"American champagne"[edit]
I think a better description of this term is warranted in the article than the somewhat cryptic line that currently closes the discussion of American sparkling wines. The legal status and abandonment of the term by producers of higher priced wines should be discussed. I would do it myself but don't know if I could keep it short enough. Rmhermen (talk) 22:43, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
- I was looking details particularly about the abandonment of the term by premium producers but I couldn't find any reliable sources that adequately described the situation. Any help in this area would be great. AgneCheese/Wine 23:06, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
Sectioning: France vs. rest of the world[edit]
According to the current version of the article, "Champagne is responsible for about 8% of worldwide sparkling wine production". This being a rather small percentage, it seems odd to have the current sectioning, which separates French wines from wines not from France. Maybe they should all be put under the same section, with countries in decreasing order of production. 220.127.116.11 (talk) 15:55, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
Outdated: atmospheres[edit]
Shouldn't, when referring to pressure the scientific term "bar" be used instead of the anachronistic atmosphere? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.127.116.11 (talk) 14:31, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
Copied material on Cava[edit]
Another editor has created an article at Cava (Spanish wine) based upon copied material previously written on Wikipedia. Regardless of the utterly inappropriate and unattributed whole sale use of another editor's work (per Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia), since this copied material just regurgitates material already available here and in other articles, an important question is whether this article is even needed. If anything, I think the fact that there really isn't any new material that can be added, beyond recycling material properly kept in context of sparkling wine and Spanish/Catalan wine, that kinda proves the point that it is not needed. Otherwise, why not make duplicate articles on everything that is already written on Wikipedia? Like Burgundy wine and an exact copy at Wine made in Burgundy? AgneCheese/Wine 20:08, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- Per Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia, the material copied from sparkling wine, Catalan wine and Spanish wine to the new article (formerly a redirect) Cava (Spanish wine) needs to be attributed by at minimum a hyperlink or URL but can otherwise be copied and modified at will. A hyperlink to the original article(s) is usually considered sufficient when copying at Wikipedia to create new articles. When I reverted you at the latter article, I made sure to add such hyperlinks which I simply forgot to add originally. This is the only level of attribution required for Wikipedia text, so you had no cause to revert me again. "Free content doesn't mean plagarism is okay", but Wikipedia's licensing means that hyperlinks are sufficient attribution. And I've now provided those.
- I believe the article is needed because (a) having sections about cava at three separate articles without one single article about cava is confusing, especially when the sections are not identical and some contain different bits of information (or contradictory bits) than others. (b) The subject is sufficiently notable and the sources sufficient to sustain an article of its own, even if the one I threw together is rather slim for now. (c) This is standard Wikipedian procedure to prevent entirely different coverage of the same topic appearing at several articles and almost certainly leading to contradiction and even worse redundancy (since each article may feel the need to go into great depth about cava, since there is no article about cava to go into great depth in!) (d) The hatnote is simpler this way. Srnec (talk) 20:24, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- Please look at the copying policy closer. Edit summary like this are not appropriate for the wholesale copying of material you did, especially since you lifted en mass selected sections of the article rather then entire article. The whole point of attribution is to allow readers to follow the material back to the original source of the material through page history. So if someone has a question about material cited to the MacNeil Wine Bible ref, who would they go to you? To you? Do you have that reference? Did you write those lines and put that material together? So where would the reader go? AgneCheese/Wine 20:58, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- First, attribution is not personal at Wikipedia. You don't know who I am. If you want to know who added that information, you'll have to search edit histories just like with any other piece of information at Wikipedia! Then you can ask that user. The original source that readers are supposed to be able to access is that provided by references. We, the editors, are not the original sources, just the writers. If they wish to track down a user they'll have to go through page histories. Again, this is not a different case than many others where the user added some information years ago and it is buried deep on another page that was merged into the one the reader is now reading. Hyperlinks in the edit summary are sufficient, as the policy page you first linked to indicates. I would add that I did modify the text quite a bit, so it is not purely your own work. If there were an issue with wording the reader would have every reason to ask me about it if they wanted, but I think you're missing the point about attribution (not the same thing as sourcing). Wholesale copying is fine, as long as it is properly attributed. Deletion is not the way to solve such an attribution problem, per that policy page again.
- As a matter of fact, I do have MacNeil's Wine Bible and if you want me to look up what it says, I will do so. Srnec (talk) 21:08, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- We are the people that looked at the source and put the material into the article. We are humans and can make mistakes so if someone has a question about how a source was used, they need to go back to the original author of the Wikipedia material who put that information in. Not having proper attribution for copying materials within Wikipedia is dishonest and a disservice to the reader. We are here for the readers and our work should not add more burden to the readership by misleading them as to the source of the original material. Again, I encourage you to read the copying policy more closely, in particular the Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia#Proper_attribution. A mass of several hyperlinks directing the reader to god know which article history is not helpful. At the very least you could have removed the material in piecemeal with a direction to each article history for each section you removed. Then you could have used the {{copied}} template and/or left an attribution note on the talk page. AgneCheese/Wine 21:21, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- We can still do all this if you like. I don't know why you are acting like this oversight on my part is some great violation of all that is good and holy. The guideline is easily adhered-to, and one can easily go fix any mistaken cut/paste. (The text was not just a copy/paste, however, as I heavily modified and restructured it.) Srnec (talk) 03:53, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

- Now in regard to whether this article should exist I'll concede that (a) is your strongest point and I am usually a strong proponent in limiting the number of links a reader has to click on to get information about a topic. But I'm also a big proponent of keeping material in context and limiting redundancy and useless duplication. There is some material that is unique to knowing the greater context of sparkling wine (and such in the sparkling wine Cava section) and some historical material unique to Spanish/Catalan wine. As long as there is not conflicts or contradiction (which you mentioned but didn't elaborate on), it seems to serve the reader best to read the material in context rather than isolated. At its core, Cava is a just a sparkling wine and just a Spanish wine. We don't have a separate article for American sparkling wine for similar reasons. We could certainly create an article with reliable sources but we would just be creating the same redundancy or duplicate information that we have here with Cava. Again, what benefit would that offer the reader? AgneCheese/Wine 21:30, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
- And we don't have an article on Spanish sparkling wine. Good thing, too. The problem with cava (and sekt, crémant, etc.) is that it is not clear why sparkling wine should be the main article for those wines as opposed to, for instance, Spanish wine, Catalan wine, German wine, French wine, etc. Or why not the DOs or AOs? Is cava more well-known or more important as a sparkling wine than as a Spanish wine? I don't know and wouldn't expect anybody else to. If we can justify articles for other appellations/denominations, why not for cava? Why can't sherry be merged into fortified wine? Wouldn't that be similar to this case? Srnec (talk) 03:53, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
- Well Sherry's production method and history is far different from other fortified wines such as Port and Madeira. That same really can't be said of Cava whose history and production is essentially being a Spanish version of Champagne with the same production method. The only difference really is the grape varieties. The sparkling wine article deals with the difference between Champagne and its many imitators which provides a key link to Cava, Sekt, Crement, etc and important context for the reader. That makes it the most logical choice for the majority of info with DO and history specific info going Catalan wine article. The Spanish wine article should really only have the briefest summary and slight mention of the scare Cava made outside Catalonia. AgneCheese/Wine 18:43, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
methode champenoise in European Union[edit]
"Since 1985, use of the term methode champenoise has been banned in all wines produced or sold in the European Union." shouldn't this be "... has been banned in all other wines produced or sold in the European Union." (without bold in article)? Otherwise the implication is that the term can't be applied to Champagne itself. David Woodward ☮ ♡♢☞☽ 00:46, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
Mousseux in Quebec Comment[edit]
I removed the following sentence form the part about Other French sparkling wine, since I can't make sense out of it.
- "In Quebec, "mousseux" commonly designates any kind of sparking wine as originally, other methods of its production were unknown to the Quebeckers."
If they produce a sparkling wine in Quebec, called mousseux, I think it should be in under the Canada headline. If it explains the meaning of mousseux in Canadian French, I don't really know where it fits but maybe it could be put back where it was. In either case it needs some clarification and expansion on what it refers to.

Obama administration takes another step toward slowing climate change – tougher regulations for methane emissions
As LOLGOP has been telling us for years (like HERE), President Obama has created a green energy revolution that is unparalleled in American history. Not only that, his administration has done more to curtail the emissions of greenhouse gases than anyone before him.
Earlier this month, his administration took a huge step forward in limiting greenhouse gas emissions when they passed new regulations on the emissions of methane from the oil and gas industry:
In a move to slash U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, the Environmental Protection Agency on May 12 issued its first-ever regulations to reduce methane releases by the oil and natural gas sector.…Read more ›

DD has had a couple of green poops since starting solids. one had bits of identifiable sweet potato in it. i stopped offering sweet potato for the time being because that had me kind of concerned...
but she had some again today, after a little avocado yesterday. in general, she is stooling more frequently than when she was only drinking breastmilk. is that normal? is the green okay? i think it means something is bothering her stomach. she has only had little bits of food for about the past 2 weeks. the green just started a couple days ago with the sweet potato.
My 6mo old's son's poop turned green after peaches. I didn't do them again cause it freaked me out. Would you say that's normal too?

This six minute news video report from CNN is superb, it focuses on pilot programmes to extend micro-insurance schemes for some of Kenya's smallest and poorest farmers in a country where the agricultural sector is at high risk from the effects of drought. Kenya is the largest economy in east Africa but less than 4% of Kenyans have access to insurance. Many do not understand the concept of insurance, others cannot afford it or choose not to take it out when there are school fees to pay (opportunity cost writ large).
These pilot schemes offer hope for the future but insurance on its own is no panecea. Savings and access to credit are of equal significance in reducing vulnerability to extreme weather events.
The micro-insurance programmes embed mobile technology - for example the Kilimo Salama programme — Swahili for 'safe farming' — launched in 2011 provides small-scale farmers in Kenya with crop insurance by combining mobile phone payment with the data from automated weather stations.Kilimo Salama uses data from these stations to calculate the severity of droughts — or excessive rainfall. Eligible farmers then receive payouts via their mobile phones.

Keith Thurman Hopes To Get His Hands on Maidana
By Jake Donovan
For the moment, all systems are still go for the July 21 co-feature between Keith Thurman and Marcos Maidana. The bout is slated to air live on HBO from the U.S. Bank Arena in Cincinnati, where hometown favorite Adrien Broner headlines against Vicente Escobedo.
Recent whispers have surfaced over the possibility of Maidana backing out of the fight . It wouldn't be the first time the Argentine brawler has pulled out of an HBO bout, having once left Tim Bradley high and dry while trying to diffuse an in-house beef with his management team.
That said, any such concern remains pure speculation at the moment. Thurman (17-0, 16KO) remains hard at work, training for the biggest fight of his career to date as the former amateur standout takes a huge step up in competition.
"I feel excited. This is what we got into the game for," Thurman says of his forthcoming HBO debut. "I feel like I'm ready. I'm 17-0, with 16 knockouts. I know what Maidana is fully capable of. I'm excited to make this step up."
The timing of the fight was curious. By his own admission, Thurman has taken the slow road to potential stardom, as a thin resume and a hand injury in 2011 hasn't led to as much buzz as would normally be afforded to a fighter of his capability.
Making up for lost time, Thurman will now be fighting for the third time in 2012. The seeds for this particular bout were planted long before it even had a home.
"When I was on the (Devon) Alexander-Maidana card and saw that he looked like a natural 147 pounder, I said it'd be fantastic to fight Maidana," Thurman says of the HBO show this past February, in which he appeared on the non-televised undercard. A first-round blitzing of Christopher Hernandez served as his first fight back in the ring since Nov. '10.
The aftermath of that evening suggested that Maidana – who dropped a wide decision against Alexander – would make one more run at 140 lb, where he has proven to be hell for anyone who dared to step in the ring with him. Enough time has since been spent in the gym to help Maidana realize that his body frame is no longer suited for the super lightweight division.
With that came what Thurman viewed as a golden opportunity.
"I knew it was hard for him to get back down to 140, so I made it clear that I was available if he was sticking around at 147."
Thurman has proven to be fun to watch as far back as his amateur days. The Florida native was named an alternate on the 2008 U.S. Olympic boxing squad, but bypassed the opportunity to instead get a head start in the pro ranks.
The moved proved to be a wise one initially, but he has endured a couple of minor setbacks which has stalled his progress. A win over Maidana erases all of that, but an impressive (read: entertaining) showing helps keep his name in lights long beyond his July 21 televised slot.
"It's highly important to make a statement," Thurman acknowledges." I want them to know that I belong in that elite class of fighters. The whole goal is to go after a belt. Whenever someone is ready to let Keith Thurman eat, I'm ready to grab that belt. I might grab a belt before Floyd gets out of jail.
"Before all that, we have to make a big statement against Marcos Maidana. That should open the doors for a title match."

Maidana is pulling out of this fight because he knows what will happen to him if he goes through with this fight.Comment by prophetstylez on 06-29-2012

IRVING, Texas -- One day after 31 Sacramento State rowers were named to the Conference USA Commissioner's Honor Roll, three more Hornets were awarded the league's Academic Medal today.
The Academic Medal is awarded to Conference USA student-athletes that carry a cumulative grade point average of 3.75 of better. Commissioner's Honor Roll accolades, which were announced yesterday, are awarded to student-athletes who maintain a grade point average of 3.0 or better.
The three Hornets receiving today's Academic Medal are junior Alexandra Santella, and freshmen Riley Ashen and Melissa Pollard.
For the list of yesterday's award winners, click here.
The Hornets joined Conference USA this academic year. Previously, Sacramento State rowing had not been part of an NCAA-recognized conference since the program gained intercollegiate status in 1995.
