You say panini... Whatever it's called, fad here to stay
Remember the simple luxury of a gooey grilled cheese sandwich on a cold afternoon? Sure, this American classic still exists in its purest, most platonic form- two slices of bread, some unspecified cheese– in diners and restaurants around town and country. Yet, if you're like me, you've been noticing a more complex and worldly grilled sandwich competitor popping up with increasing frequency on local menus, from Fuel, Co.'s café to The Baker's Palate to Wild Greens, Vivace and even Smoothie King: the "panini."
If you've been to Italy or understand the basics of the language, you might see why it's so difficult for me, an Italian teacher by profession, to say or write "the panini." That's because in Italy, panini is actually the plural of panino, just like biscotti is the plural of biscotto. A diminutive of pane (bread), panino can be translated as "little bread/roll" or "sandwich," depending on the context.
If you and a friend go to any bakery from Turin to Taranto and ask for due panini, you'll get two mini-loaves or rolls in a paper bag. If you make the same request in a bar/caffé, you'll be asked which ingredients you'd like in your sandwiches. The choice tends to be quite select and involves various combinations of: prosciutto ("cotto"/boiled or "crudo"/raw, cured), speck (smoked, cured pork), mozzarella, formaggio (cheese), tonno (tuna), and pomodoro (tomato). No mustard or mayo.
Bread types vary according to region and can be soft or crusty round rolls, slices from larger loaves or focaccia. Unlike the American interpretation, Italian panini are not necessarily grilled, though they can be.
So how did this simple Italian panino evolve into panini possibilities like Grilled Greek Chicken (Wild Greens), The Cheese Head and Rocco Z (Higher Grounds), Vegetarian (City Centro) and The Classic: Cheddar, Avocado, Bacon and Tomato (Fuel)?
William Trager of Higher Grounds appears to be the Columbus of Charlottesville when it comes to panini (not to mention serious coffee and concrete floors). A native of Seattle, Trager says that panini were as common as coffeehouses as far back as the early '90s.
"Just about every coffee cart had a panini grill," he told Dish. When Higher Grounds opened eight years ago, Downtown Mall classic panini like "The Bird" and "The Caprese" were there. So what's Trager's definition of the sandwich genre?
"Panini are grilled press sandwiches made with focaccia bread and fresh ingredients- absolutely no mayonnaise," he says.
Continuing in this coffee-panini tradition is the five-year-old City Centro, which started making panini on Albermarle Baking Co.'s focaccia last year, when this foodie fad spread.
"Panini are perfect for us since they're very portable and they go well with soups," says owner Andreas Gaynor. City Centro also cuts their panini into "fingers" for dipping and sharing. A sign of their mainstream, as well as winter-weather appeal, the Smoothie King franchise offers two panini options during the colder months.
So why call them "panini" instead of just "grilled sandwiches"? In most cases, we have the grill itself not just the Italian prototype- to thank.
"We went with 'panini' as opposed to different sayings because we use the Italian grill of that name to press the sandwiches, " explains Patricia Kluge of Fuel, Co. Sheila and Tom Cervelloni of The Baker's Palate offered a similar rationale, though they decided to use a small focaccia round for their panini to honor the Italian. Challenging this theory is Smoothie King, which uses a super-sized George Foreman grill to press its panini into submission.
Offering a different perspective is Feast! where a Eurodib Panini Maker from Italy does the deed on many of its sandwiches - called, simply, "sandwiches."
"We found that people were confused by what panini were," says Kate Collier of their choice to stick with English. "For us, a grilled cheese is just a grilled cheese."
Even if it happens to have nine different cheeses and roasted red peppers and is grilled on a focaccia round inspired by a "panino" that Collier's fiancé, Eric Gertner, brought back from a trip to Piemonte.
Whatever they're called, let's be thankful that these glorious grilled cheeses are here, it seems, to stay. But if you do plan on ordering in Italian, ask for a panino or two panin– and make your teacher's day!
That's panino to you!

VANCOUVER — As John Tortorella heads into the final weekend of his first, and perhaps last, season as the Vancouver Canucks' head coach, his deportment remains exemplary in dealing with his media inquisitors.
The coach has a new boss, Trevor Linden, looking over his shoulder and an owner, Francesco Aquilini, who hardly seemed to endorse him Wednesday during the Linden introductory news conference.
Tortorella claimed Thursday he wasn't really aware that Aquilini had this to say in explaining the firing of Mike Gillis: "Mike hired Tortorella and I supported that decision. I have to take responsibility for that. That's why we have a change in direction."
Tortorella's response?
"I don't read it," he said prior to Thursday's Canucks-Colorado Avalanche game at Rogers Arena. "I don't pay too much attention to it. It's part of my job, the speculation and all that stuff. I just don't worry about it. I feel my responsibility is to keep working at what I'm supposed to be doing.
"So, yeah, I just don't. I never have because that's the world we live in. In pro sports, that's what you're in and that's part of it."
Linden, meanwhile, appeared on Bill Good's CKNW radio program Thursday and was asked if he felt Daniel and Henrik Sedin had been misused by Tortorella. The twins' production has dropped precipitously under Tortorella, who has deployed them in more defensive situations and as penalty killers, unlike previous coach Alain Vigneault. The twins, it should be noted, wanted more defensive responsibility.
"Well, that's a great question," Linden replied. "I think you have to use your people where they will best excel and good coaches understand that. I probably felt it was a misuse of their abilities but I'd have to dig deeper into it. I think there is a player-coach relationship there and they discuss these roles. I'm not sure if John feels that was a mistake or not. I haven't talked to John about it. I think most people would say you put your best offensive players in the best offensive positions, or situations, you can. Everyone has a different opinion on that.
"I'm looking forward to sitting down and talking with them and sitting down and talking with the coaches. That's the great thing about this timing. I am able to come in and get that information. That is imperative to making decisions in the future. "
SAINT PATRICK: Rookie Colorado head coach Patrick Roy is expected to be a runaway winner for NHL coach of the year after taking the Avs from 29th place one season ago to a Stanley Cup contender this season. They entered play Thursday third in the Western Conference, ahead of the perennially powerful Chicago Blackhawks, San Jose Sharks and Los Angeles Kings.
Roy, 48, was reluctant to accept all the bouquets.
"I receive a lot of credit for it but I'd like to pass the credit to the players," Roy said Thursday morning. "When they came to camp, I saw a group that was very determined to change things. It was clear that they wanted to make the playoffs. That was the objective and this is where we started working together. We established a partnership with them and put in words like 'trust' and 'respect' and our guys have been coming every day with a great work ethic. They have been really sharp."
DEBUT DAWNING: A month ago, the Canucks signed left-winger Mike Zalewski — pronounced Za-less-ski — out of the NCAA Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute. He was ineligible to play for the American Hockey League's Utica Comets because his signing came after the March 5 NHL trade deadline. The plan was for the 21-year-old to practise with the club and soak up the experience.
Now the plan has changed and Zalewski is expected to play either Saturday in Edmonton or in the season finale at home Sunday, or in both.
"He has practised very well, we showed him a bunch of tape on our team concept and, to me, it's been a really good process for him," said Tortorella. "I am anxious to see him play and I believe he will in one or two of the games."
Zalewski, from New Hartford, N.Y., played two seasons in the B.C. Junior Hockey League with the Vernon Vipers.
"I haven't heard anything directly yet, but obviously I'm super excited at the chance to get in a game," Zalewski said. "It's what I've been hoping for all along. Obviously if I get a chance to play, it will be just an unbelievable experience."
Zalewski was scheduled to be a healthy scratch Thursday, along with Jordan Schroeder and Zac Dalpe.
QUOTABLE: "I don't know how to act in this situation. I haven't been in this situation many times." — Tortorella on coaching in games that mean nothing to his team.

I have spent a couple years focusing on 10/22 reliability, trying all kinds of modifications that I did myself, some worked and some failed, then setting down doing deep analysis of why this didn't work and how to fix it.
Then I spent a couple years on "let's make this rifle shoot more accurate", tried some of the after market affordable barrels with some disappointment and started machining on the factory barrel and bolt.
I found that after I did a small group of modifications the rifle really worked and
was an accurate sleeper rifle.

Most of the time we are out for the day shooting hundreds of rounds and the bore snake or pull through type brushes just doesn't cut the lead build up in the barrel.
The Problem
The Solution
Add a Cleaning Rod Hole (found in this ebook) an easy modification is to create rod hole in the back of the receiver. The advantage is that you can run a cleaning rod through the barrel with out removing it from the receiver.
Adding the cleaning rod hole is a very easy modification with very detailed instructions and clear large pictures found in this ebook.
Being able to make this one modification and clean your 10/22 barrel with a full length cleaning rod from the back of the receiver with no muzzle damage. Having the ability to finally be able to run the brush and jag through the barrel from the breech end is well worth the price of this ebook, Isn't it?

The Rangers celebrate Marian Gaborik's goal against the Islanders. The Rangers won, 4-1.
(Photo by Anthony Gruppuso/USA TODAY Sports)
NEW YORK — Teenage rookie J.T. Miller scored his first two NHL goals in his second career game to lift the New York Rangers to a 4-1 victory over the New York Islanders tonight.
Miller, who won't turn 20 until March, gave the Rangers a 1-0 lead just 1:29 in and then pushed their advantage to 3-1 in the second period with a rare power-play goal for the club. Marian Gaborik also scored, defenseman Marc Staal had two assists and Ryan McDonagh added an empty-net goal to give the Rangers their second win in three games.
New York lost in Miller's NHL debut Tuesday at New Jersey.
The Rangers have an eight-game winning streak over the Islanders at Madison Square Garden, outscoring them 35-11.
New York (5-5) entered with 20 goals, tied for fewest in the NHL, but scored more than two for just the second time in five games. The Rangers connected for only the fourth time this season in 37 power-play opportunities — the worst percentage in the league.
The Islanders' struggles on the power play continued as they went 0 for 5. They have failed in 19 straight chances over three games after starting the season 9 for 24.
Henrik Lundqvist made 27 saves as he started for the ninth time in the Rangers' 10 games this season. It was his first win in three outings. The Rangers also welcomed back captain Ryan Callahan, who had missed three games because of a shoulder injury nine days earlier.
John Tavares scored his fifth goal of the season in the second period to cut the Islanders' deficit to 2-1, but they dropped their third straight after a 4-2-1 start. Evgeni Nabokov stopped 21 shots just hours after the Islanders acquired veteran goalie Tim Thomas from the Boston Bruins.
The 38-year-old Thomas has no intention of playing this season — the last year of his contract — and has been under suspension by the Bruins for failing to report to the club.
Miller started the scoring early with a snap shot from the lower left circle that beat Nabokov. Gaborik made it 2-0 with 5:56 left in the first period when he was left alone in front for a perfectly placed drive that produced his sixth goal of the season.
Tavares brought the Islanders within a goal 11:13 into the second period with a rising wrist shot from the right circle that eluded Lundqvist's glove, but Miller struck again with 1:49 left in the period when he got by the defense and came right in on Nabokov.
Miller, the Rangers' first-round pick in 2011, had two shots in 14 minutes, 25 seconds of ice time Tuesday in his debut.
NOTES: The Islanders will send a conditional second-round draft pick to the Bruins either next year or in 2015, depending on if Thomas ever plays for New York. ... The Rangers benched forward Brian Boyle to make room in the lineup for Callahan. Coach John Tortorella was critical before the game of Boyle, who has one assist, a minus-3 rating and 11 penalty minutes this season. ... The Rangers went 1-2 without Callahan. ... D Lubomir Visnovsky passed a physical and was activated from the suspended list by the Islanders after he didn't report to the club to start the season. He wasn't in the lineup. ... The Rangers were caught with too many men on the ice for the fifth time this season, the fourth in four home games.

Brayton Wins Friday in Geneva
The first leg of the Geneva Supercross took place on Friday night here in Switzerland, and JGR Yamaha's Justin Brayton ended the evening as the big winner. The American rider won his heat and the main event in dominating fashion over KTM's Marvin Musquin. In that main event, Brayton used some serious whoop speed to catch and pass early leader Cedric Soubeyras.
It continues a streak here for Brayton. For six-straight years, he's been the winner on the tight, 34-second-per-lap track. Musquin started right behind Brayton and early on, he put some pressure on the Yamaha rider, but once Brayton got into the lead, he slowly pulled away. Soubeyras, who just a couple of weeks ago gave some American racers fits in Bercy, ended up an uncontested third on the night after grabbing the early lead.
There was also a women's main event with Megan Rutledge taking the win over American Vicki Golden.
Racing continues tonight.

In my earlier blog, I explained how advisors can get paid for individual company retirement plan advice in pre-tax dollars. A second way to get paid for this retirement plan advice is directly through personal checks.
In June of 2009, Jack Reutemann of Research Financial Strategies and I began to present the "No More Pies" seminars for Bill Good Marketing.
The first day of the seminar, I teach the finer points of the Dorsey Wright & Associates, Inc. database. The second day of the seminar Jack teaches the fine points of his technical analysis and tactical asset allocation-based stock market risk-management game plan.
A big part of the two-day seminar is focused on how to provide investment advice to individual company retirement plan participants. The seminar content includes how to work with a fixed menu of company retirement plan mutual funds or the Self-Directed Brokerage Account, or SDBA, option.
Jack is a master at the concept of prospect and client presentations, and one of the major parts of his presentations focuses on providing the prospect or client with the option of paying company retirement plan investment advisory fees either in pre-tax or after-tax dollars.
A key point Jack shares is that it makes no economic sense for the client to pay asset management fees from a qualified plan account.
As an example, an individual retirement plan advice client with a $1 million company retirement plan account would pay annual advisory fees of 1.5% or $15,000 per year.
Those advisory fees would be deducted from the company retirement plan account. In this case, the annual advisory fees would almost completely wipe out that client's annual contribution of $17,500 if he or she is under 50 years old or $23,000 if he or she is over 50 years old.
A qualified plan account has a finite amount of money contributed during a client's working career through employer contributions, employee contributions or growth of principal.
In an IRA rollover of a company retirement plan account, it makes even less sense to pay advisory fees out of that account. An IRA rollover in most cases is never going to have more money added to the account.
The IRS rules that advisors need to know all fall under section 212 of the tax code. These investment advisory fees, the code says, are a tax deduction on Form 1040 under miscellaneous deductions on Schedule A. All qualifying fees are lumped together under a 2% limitation.
Many individual company retirement plan advice clients have found that these qualified account investment management fees are a helpful addition to their miscellaneous fees tax deductions every tax year.
Paying advisory fees outside a qualified plan account will increase the amount of miscellaneous deductions that exceed 2% of adjusted gross income. This would make a portion of the annual investment advisory fees paid for a company retirement plan account tax deductible every year.
Standard disclaimer here: I am not a tax advisor. However, I do talk to tax advisors regularly; and have several as clients. The third-party investment advice fee deduction on an individual company retirement plan account works for most of my clients.
The individual company retirement plan advice client may be better off economically by paying the advisory fee with after-tax dollars and not lowering the qualified account value. In addition, the client can be better off most times from a tax point of view with this arrangement.
The most important lesson is to give your individual company retirement plan advice clients the pre-tax or after-tax option. You get paid; and the client benefits.

Early Tuesday, Baird said it recruited a team of seven employee advisors with about $770 million in client assets from Wells Fargo (WFC) in Houston, while Royal Alliance announced that it added two independent teams in Chicago and Salt Lake City with combined assets of more than $400 million and nearly $3.5 million in yearly fees and commissions.
In addition, Baird says it is opening a second branch in Houston that will be led by John S. Hantak, who just moved to Baird from UBS (UBS). He will supervise the new Baird team, which includes legacy A.G. Edwards & Sons advisors, which—through acquisitions—became part of Wachovia and later part of Wells. The group's business model is mainly focused on retirement planning for employees and executive in oil and gas industry.
"We couldn't be more pleased to welcome John and these highly regarded financial advisors to Baird," said Michael J. Schroeder, president of Baird Private Wealth Management, in a statement. "Baird's culture celebrates their entrepreneurial accomplishments and highly specialized expertise in the area of retirement planning for oil and gas industry professionals."
Most recently, Hantak oversaw more than 50 financial advisors in Stamford and Greenwich, Conn., managing $48 million in advisor revenues. Before this role, he worked for Citi Smith Barney and Prudential. (He is a lifetime member of the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo.)
In Houson, Hantak will work with ex-UBS advisors J. Gillette Burns, Orlando C. Montesino, Andrew A. Atkinson, Richard G. Pfeil, Matthew Leatherwood, Thomas S. Davis and Nelson Shields Jr.
Baird has more than 700 advisors as of early 2013, the company says. Since early 2009, it has added about 275 advisors and branch managers, including new offices in Fort Worth, Texas; Charlotte, N.C.; Sarasota, Fla.; Portland, Maine; Salt Lake City; and Portland, Ore.
"We are excited to expand our footprint in Houston, a market that continues to represent significant growth potential," said Jarrett Kovics, director of the Texas Market for Baird's private wealth management business, in a press release. "We extend a warm welcome to these seasoned wealth management professionals, all of whom are legacy A.G. Edwards employees."
Royal Recruits
Royal Alliance Associates, part of the AIG-owned Advisor Group of independent broker-dealers says that its two new teams moved to affiliate with Royal's hybrid platform because of the "flexibility and cutting-edge technology" it offers fee-based advisors.
The two new independent teams are JLTD, based in Chicago and led by advisors Timothy McGrath and Horace Seely-Brown; and the Integrated Financial Group of Salt Lake City, which includes advisors Sam Clark, James Davenport, Les Barber, Steve Fulmer and Casey Kotter.
"We are continuing our fourth-quarter 2012 momentum in early 2013," said Kevin Beard, senior vice president of recruiting, in an interview with AdvisorOne. "We are being more engaged by advisors, who are seeking a long term partner in the broker-dealer space."
Year to date, Royal Alliance has added affiliated advisors with about $6 million in yearly fees and commissions, he notes.
JLTD dropped its affiliation and registration with Memphis-based Wunderlich Securities in December 2011. After that, it operated as its own stand-alone RIA.
The group is "interested in growing their business beyond $100 million in assets under management, [and] the advisors migrated their existing RIA to Royal Alliance for access to the firm's proven hybrid platform," according to Royal Alliance.
One way it plans to grow, says Beard, is purchasing a portion of another Royal Alliance-affiliated team's book of business and considering the purchase of the entire book.
"This purchase arrangement is not the first, and we are open to opportunities in succession planning and recruiting for those who are planning to be purchased or do some purchasing of a book," the recruiter said.
The other team recently affiliated with Royal Alliance, Integrated Financial Group, was previously working with Lincoln Financial. It ended its affiliated with Lincoln on March 1.
"IFG is a planning group, focused on best-in-breed technology and finding a broker-dealer to partner with in fee-based planning," Beard explained. "The team, which includes several young advisors, has been looking for a broker-dealer that will be around for a long time with best-of-breed technology and platforms."

Archery Hits the Mark for Texans
OutdoorHub 04.12.12
They may not be hunting for food for their families in District 12, like Katniss before The Hunger Games, but archery has still become a popular sport with children and teens across the nation. Seeing this increased interest, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department recently began work with the Archery Trade Association to offer archery programs and opportunities in communities across Texas.
"We saw that archery was so very popular in schools, and we wanted to give all Texans the ability to experience this great sport," said Nancy Herron, TPWD outreach and education director. "Working with community parks and recreation departments, we plan to offer archery opportunities in the greater Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex then work our way across Texas. Archery is just one of the many fun ways families and individuals of all ages can get outside and learn a new outdoor skill."
The ATA is made up of archery and bowhunting industry professionals which promotes participation in archery and bowhunting and runs the annual ATA Trade Show. Mitch King, director of government relations with the ATA, signed the memorandum of agreement with TPWD executive director Carter Smith March 14.
"The ATA is excited about this new and growing partnership with the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department," King said. "We are looking forward to seeing a growth of archery in the schools and parks departments in those areas. In addition, all of our ATA member retailers and manufacturers in Texas are excited to get to work with the TPWD and local governments and grow archery and bowhunting."
Texans currently enjoy archery through recreational pursuits and through bow hunting of fish and other wild game, yet this coordinated effort between the two organizations marks the state's interest in promoting the sport to all Texans. Ideas for the project include lessons for all skill levels with a focus on beginner and intermediate levels, the creation or designation of areas in which archers may practice and community events and mentored bowhunts.
