What's the Mix in Your Home?
We read the lead feature in this past weekend's Los Angeles Times Home & Garden section, about the movement of antique stores from brick and mortar shops to online sites, with interest. Growing up, our parents had an antique store for a time and many of the pieces in their house have migrated to ours...
Antiques, defined as furniture and home accessories over 100 years old, are less coveted than they used to be. They've been replaced by a yearning for mid-century pieces. But whether it's mid-century or antique, we find any kind of complete look boring. We prefer a home that mixes it up: mid-century with antique, French with Chinese, Ikea with Louis XIV, Scandinavian with Victorian, DIY shelving with hand-printed wallpaper; a home that reflects its owner. What's the mix in your home? Or how would it be if money was no object? Are you Mid-Century Modern all the way or do you prefer a more eclectic look? Fess up in the comments and send us some pictures! We're always looking for house tours and we'd love to see your homes here.

I have two questions. I've been trying to find a nice vintage chair to reupholster, but I don't know who is reliable and reasonably priced in LA, does anyone have a recommendation?
Secondly, I love the art deco look of the shinny black acrylic look, and want to paint some old lamps with it...what's a good paint to buy for accessories? Thanks!
I live in a loft with antiques. The architecture and furniture are unexpected together, so it feels fresh. But if I moved into, say, a Craftsman house, I'd want to add some more contemporary pieces so everything wouldn't look too "period piece."
I guess nothing really matches in my place, 19th century family antiques, a Louis XVI armchair, scandinavian chairs, an Art Deco console, contemporary artwork, designer lamps edited by Kartell, an Old Master portrait. Besides the danish chairs everything seems to go together, probably because everything is in wood, and there is a lot of dark colors and black laquer.
Some weird mix of craftsman, country, and 1970's mcn. All simple stuff I guess. I like all styles and admire the extraordinry but want my own house to be simple.
I have a mix of everything in my place. The bedroom furniture is art deco from the 30s, and was given to my grandmother as a wedding gift. Unfortunately the sleigh bed that came with the set was initially broken by my sister (we split up the set when we inherited it) and then damaged beyond repair when her basement was flooded. She eventually gave me what was left of her half of the furniture. My headboard, even though it is a similar color wood hue, is definitely from the 70s. The rest of my home is more modern with a few retro 60s touches here and there and an old victorian era clock, which still works, but needs to be wound up every day.
Edwardian and Georgian stuff, and chesterfields. Two modern comfy chairs. Turkish rugs. Colors aren't period (olive, black, cream, plum).
Kind of bohemian. I will probably add some modern steel chairs in the dining room because most chairs which would traditionally "go" with my table are stuffy-looking.
And a drum set and a lot of guitars, none of which are antique. :)
ChrisToronto, that is one gorgeous living room!
MCM industrial diner retro 1950's lots of feminine color
Mine is IKEA mixed with West Elm, plus a three-legged wood chair that my grandfather made before I was born and an antique secretary desk from my parents. I like to call it poverty mixed wtih laziness.
Antiques mixed with contemporary modern pieces a la Room & Board and Crate & Barrel, with subtle asian elements in the accessories and art. Muted palette of tomato red, honey yellow, celedon blue, oatmeal, and chocolatey brown.
Asian and Scandinavian (pieces inherited from my parents) and a few Craig's List finds.

Read the question carefully and fill in completely the circle near the letter corresponding to the best answer on the Scantron sheet. There are 10 questions and 10 possible points in this quiz. It is for extra credit only. Although they are both endocrine glands, the anterior and posterior pituitary function very differently. This difference is partly because: The anterior pituitary develops from the roof of the mouth and the posterior pituitary develops from an outpocketing of the developing eye. The anterior pituitary develops from the roof of the mouth and the posterior pituitary develops from the brain. The anterior pituitary has nerve endings from the hypothalamus and the posterior pituitary receives hormones from the hypothalamus. The anterior pituitary forms and develops much earlier than the posterior pituitary. If the Sry gene is translocated to a mammal that has XX sex chromosomes, what will happen? Ovaries will develop in this mammal Nothing will happen because Sry cannot function normally without a Y chromosome Testosterone production will be low and the mammal will appear feminine Testes will develop in this mammal Estrogen production will be high and the mammal will appear feminine Mammals that are XY and have mutations in the androgen receptor than make them completely insensitive to androgens: have testes but appear female externally lack testes and appear female have ovaries and appear female Dolphins have internal testes but still maintain a testicular temperature that is cooler than core body temperature by: Using cooled venous blood to cool the area around the testis By occasionally moving the testis outside of the body through the inguinal canal Using cooled venous blood to cool the arterial blood entering the testis By keeping the testes very close the the skin so they are cooled by the cool water as dolphins swim As sperm move from the efferent ducts to the cauda epididymis, they become: more dilute motile in these ducts larger in size more concentrated Although the PSA test is used very frequently, there is some controversy surrounding it use because It has a high false positive rate It has a high false negative rate It is a very invasive test, requiring a biopsy It often does not detect a cancer If supplemental testosterone were administered to males, how would this affect GnRH pulses and secretion? They would be increased They would be decreased They would not change If supplemental LH were administered to males, how would this affect testosterone secretion? It would be increased It would be decreased It would not change In males, FSH concentration is regulated primarily by? The concentration of LH The concentration of activin The concentration of inhibin The concentration of glucose Protein hormones are water soluble. How do they activate a response in target cells? Protein hormones pass through the cell?s plasma membrane, bind to receptors in the nucleus and activate transcription of new genes. Protein hormones bind to specific receptors on the cell?s plasma membrane that, in turn, activate a series of protein modifications and eventually transcription of new genes. Protein hormones bind to specific receptors on the cell?s plasma membrane that carry the hormone inside the cell. Protein hormones bind to specific cell membrane receptors that are transcription factors. In normal males, the paramesonephric or Mullerian duct will: form the epididymis form the testes regress form the vas deferens form the testes cords 1

Written by guest blogger and Pro Team Elite racer Rose Wetzell-Sinnett
Many people have asked, "what is a Founder's Race?"
Well for those of you that raced in Montana, you now know what it is. It's a little less formal that a regular Spartan Race. The obstacles are more like they were "back in the day". They are made out of what is available at the venue. In the case of Montana, this was primarily fallen pine trees. The feel overall is more grassroots and the basic. But that does not mean less challenging. What else makes a Founder's Race unique? It is designed by one of the Founders. In this case, Joe De Sena.
Joe De Sena, you did not disappoint. In the Montana Sprint Founder's Race preview, Spartan Pro Team member Elliot Megquier predicted that the race would be "brutally awesome", thanks to the Spartan founder designing it himself, Elliot was right. With over 4,000 feet of elevation gain in under 5 miles, if racers weren't climbing up a hill last Saturday, they were running down one. On the women's side, talented racers such as Tiffanie Novakovich, Jenny Tobin, Rose Wetzel-Sinnett, Andi Hardy, and Laura Messner stepped up to the challenge after studs like Matt Novakovich, Chad Trammell, Elliot Megquier, Miguel Medina, Joey Patrolia, and Chris Rutz took off to tackle the roughly 20 obstacles strewn throughout the course. The race started off with a quick jaunt through a pond followed by a steep incline to shoot the heart rate up. Many racers found themsleves power hiking within the first few minutes, thinking, "What did I get myself into?" After flying down the hill, racers landed in front of a new obstacle – the biggest, baddest slippery wall Spartan has ever dished out. As racers headed uphill again, they came across a cute sign that read, "1.5 Mile Hill Climb" and then, underneath "Love, Joe." And who was there within the first minute or so of this brutal hill climb but Joe himself, cheering racers on and probably smiling at the thought of their impending quad burn.
Over the next 2-3 miles, racers carried logs, flipped logs, waded through ponds, crawled under barbed wire with huge hay rolls in the way, climbed rope and numerous walls, carried sandbags, and of course, threw the Spartan spear, all the while making their way through the rocky terrain and occasional waist-high brush. Joe kept everyone on their toes, that's for sure. Mountain running expert, Matt "The Bear" Novakovich from Alaska, smoked the course and finished in style, lifting a burning log over his head as he hurdled the fire pit. Next came Chad Trammell flying in, despite nursing a hamstring strain after claiming first place at the Colorado Sprint last week, followed by Lucas Zemlicka, a Montana native. The women's race ended with a very exciting sprint to the finish after Rose Wetzel-Sinnett was directed off course by a fellow racer, only to run up the initial hill again, costing her a few precious minutes. Faye Stenning, who pursued Wetzel-Sinnett by a minute or two the entire race, also went off course, leaving Jenny Tobin a chance to possibly take the top podium spot. Once Wetzel-Sinnett realized she was back on the course's beginning section, however, she bolted like a madwoman 150 meters to the last wall, which Jenny Tobin was already ascending. Full of determination, Wetzel-Sinnett flew up the wall, spilled ungracefully onto the other side, shot up and sprinted like crazy to clinch the win. Faye crossed the line in third, with the bronchitis-battling Tiffanie Novakovich just missing the podium.
Once racers tackled the course and earned their coveted Spartan medal, the real party began. Joe De Sena personally congratulated racers as upbeat music blasted, beckoning racers to find a second wind for the dance party. Although morning conditions consisted of clouds and coldness, the afternoon brought sun breaks between short rain showers, warming things up for the loony guys in Speedos. Spartan Races always offer challenging courses and an encouraging atmosphere, though all would agree that the Montana Founder's Race added a special element of brutal awesomeness.
Sign up for your next Spartan Race right here and you'll know at the finish line!

For years, companies have kept stores of identity information about employees, customers, and partners. These databases and directories are critical components of a company's identity infrastructure. But as businesses push to create new products and increase productivity, they have discovered that they often must cooperate to provide the services their customers and employees demand.
Centralized systems just aren't possible in these cases. Instead, organizations must turn to a decentralized approach, termed "federated identity management." Federated identity systems bring together two or more separately managed identity systems to perform mutual authentication and authorization tasks and to share identity attributes.
To users, federated identity systems present a way for a single identity to be used across multiple systems and services. But behind the scenes, it's more complicated than that. Not surprisingly, the hard part isn't usually the technology. Rather, the hard part is governing the processes and business relationships to ensure that the federation is reliable, secure, and affords appropriate privacy protections.
"There are no commonly accepted best practices, no commonly accepted agreements," says John Jackson, director of software technology at General Motors. "Chances are, one of the parties is doing [federation] for the first time, and the legal implications are not always straightforward."
Complicating your life
Some federations are relatively simple, and as a consequence are easy to govern. For example, if you offer an online service, federating with the identity system of your largest client offers real benefits. The fact that you already have a business relationship with the client makes structuring the federation easy, and such an arrangement rarely involves financial or privacy risks.
Delegating administration of identities to your client means you no longer have to respond to customer service calls about lost passwords. In addition, federation creates value for your corporate clients by increasing convenience and reducing security concerns. These kind of win-win scenarios drive federation.
When a user who has been authenticated by one party takes an action on another site that has real financial consequences, however, the situation becomes more complicated. The problems come down to turf, regulatory requirements, and liability.
For example, federating systems for employee portals raises questions about who owns the data associated with various identities and who has the final say when the data doesn't agree. Ownership issues aren't limited to external partners; federations between the HR and finance divisions of a single company can sometimes be the most acrimonious.
What's more, the regulatory burden can be immense when you're dealing with financial or health data -- both likely scenarios in an employee portal. Global companies have an even bigger problem, given the overlapping and sometimes contradictory requirements of privacy laws around the world.
Employee portals also raise the issue of shared financial responsibility. When a company authenticates an employee for its 401(k) provider, it is saying, in effect, "We vouch for this person." But if something goes wrong and there's a loss, who's responsible? While disentangling a company from the responsibility of providing the outside service is an important benefit of outsourcing, federation requires that the employer take some of the responsibility in exchange for a better user experience and more accurate data.

Very easy to make. Nice texture that differs from other rice puddings - creamy and rich. Perfect after a curry dinner. One hint - the rice sticks together as it cools, so must be gently broken up with a fork before adding liquid ingredients. Otherwise, it's hard to chase lumps and separate them.

The Lion's league longest ever losing streak on the road to one opponent was extended last night to 22 games as Detroit fell to the Green Bay Packers 27-to-20 at snowy Lambeau Field.
The Lions couldn't hold a 14-to-0 first half lead and dropped their fifth straight with their last place record in the NFC North slipping to 4-and-9. The 9-and-4 Packers seized sole possession of first place in North with the victory while the Bears slid into second place after losing 21-to-14 yesterday at Minnesota.
Key plays that doomed Detroit included quarterback Matthew Stafford's second quarter fumble when the ball flew out of his hand as he drew his arm back to pass and it was returned 43 yards by Green Bay for a touchdown to cut the Lion's lead to 14-to-10.
And then on the Packer's opening drive to begin the second half, Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rogers was trapped in the pocket but scrambled away and ran untouched down the sideline for a 27-yard score to put the Packers ahead 17-to-14. Calvin Johnson had 118 yards receiving for Detroit to put him over 15-hundred yards for the season but it wasn't enough to keep the Lions from suffering a third straight defeat while blowing a lead of 10-plus points, tying an NFL record shared by six other teams. Detroit Coach Jim Schwartz said the difference in the game was green bay taking advantage of untimely mistakes by the lions
The Lion's offense took a blow when tight end Brandon Pettigrew left the game in the first quarter with an ankle injury and didn't return. Detroit's next game is Sunday at Arizona.
Yesterday's highlights around the NFL included former Michigan State quarterback Kirk Cousins helping to rally the Washington Redskins to a 31-to-28 overtime victory against the Baltimore Ravens. Cousins, who was filling in when fellow rookie Robert Griffin the Third went down late in the second half, tossed an 11-yard touchdown pass with 29 seconds remaining and then ran a draw play for the 2-point conversion to tie the game.
Griffin suffered a sprained right knee and his condition will be updated today. The 7-and-6 Redskins have won 4 straight to stay in the thick of the race in the NFC East. Week 14 of the season wraps up tonight with matchup of AFC Division leaders as Houston plays at New England.

Four teens have been arrested in connection to a break-in of a Walbridge home.
Miguel Mata had noticed the shed at his mother's house he been tampered with, so he made an extra trip to check on the house Tuesday night. Because he did, the family was able to recover all of their stolen items from the Walbridge Police Department.
Mata was leaving a friend's house down the road from his mother's on Wilbur Street late on February 5. His brother Juan explained what happened next.
"He drove by, and he said he seen a van, so he pulled back in and blocked them," Juan said. "They were pulled all the way back here by the shed and when he pulled in, his headlights hit the van and there was someone loading something into the van."
Juan said the teens then started jumping the fences to get away. Miguel Mata called the police, who arrived with dogs and chased the suspects back to a house on West Perry Avenue.
The suspects: Elijah Parson, 19, Jacob Oakley, 18, Derek Daly, 18, and the fourth – a juvenile – were caught and charged with burglary and obstructing official business. Juan said he believes they targeted his mother's home.
"The one was…I guess not my friend, but I thought he was my friend," he said. "They knew no one was going to be here."
The teens almost got away with TVs, computers, and nearly every other item of value.
"I don't even know how to explain it," Juan said. "I don't want to leave her here alone now, you know?"
He said his mother did not sleep the first night, but is doing better now that the suspects are behind bars.

Residents have access to a new Park & Ride lot located at the county administration complex, at 2300 Virginia Ave.
The purpose is to encourage and support residents to carpool and share rides with others, rather than using multiple vehicles.
Residents can leave their vehicles in the available spaces and then ride together when commuting to work, shopping or events.
The newly designated 34-space parking lot is situated immediately adjacent to the west entrance of the county parking area.
Signs in the lot indicate the location of the designated spaces and roadway signs guide commuters to the Park & Ride section. The signs were constructed and installed with funding from the Florida Department of Transportation and support provided by the St. Lucie Transportation Planning Organization.
Residents without transportation can easily access this central location, which is within close walking distance of many residential areas.
Carpooling reduces the stress of driving, wear and tear on vehicles and cuts down on vehicle pollution.
"Projects like this Park & Ride offer residents options that can save them money and gas," said Corine Williams, St. Lucie County transit coordinator.

Paragon Bank prides itself on offering superior service based on a combination of banking expertise and local knowledge. At Paragon, we believe that local banking is better banking.
At a time when most banks are mere outposts for a huge corporation hundreds of miles away, Paragon is locally owned, locally operated and locally focused. Paragon's handpicked team of seasoned banking professionals is raising expectations in the Memphis banking market.
Welcome to Paragon, where local banking from locals is more than just a catchy phrase. It's a commitment.
At Paragon, customers bank when and where they want. In addition to Paragon's growing number of full-service locations, there are approximately 170 surcharge-free ATM locations in the Memphis area. Paragon's ATM network gives customers access to cash all over the world.
Services also include free internet banking, mobile banking, and 24-hour telephone banking (Paragon Direct, 901.333.0260).
Small business customers have several cash management tools available to make their banking more convenient including remote deposit capture (ParaTeller), lockbox, internet banking, and a courier service to pick up deposits.
Paragon offers a wide range of financial options to fit each customer's individual needs. This consists of an assortment of deposit products including checking accounts, NOW accounts, savings accounts, money market accounts, certificates of deposit, and IRAs.
Paragon also offers a wide range of loans to fit each customer's needs. Business loan products include working capital lines of credit, SBA loans, asset-based loans, floor plan loans, construction and development loans, equipment financing, real estate loans, and letters of credit. Paragon also offers a large variety of consumer loans including mortgage loans and home equity loans.
Paragon Bank worked with Make-A-Wish Mid-South to grant 14-year-old Carrie-Lynn's wish of meeting World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) professional wrestler John Cena. This is the ninth consecutive year that Paragon has worked with Make-A-Wish Mid-South to grant the wish of a child being treated in Memphis.Paragon Bank worked with Make-A-Wish Mid-South to grant 14-year-old Carrie-Lynn's wish of meeting World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) professional wrestler John Cena. This is the ninth consecutive year that Paragon has worked with Make-A-Wish Mid-South to grant the wish of a child being treated in Memphis.
Momentum at Paragon continues. Aided by balance-sheet growth and continued improvement in asset quality, net income for the second quarter was 61% higher than income for the first quarter of this year.
Paragon is proud to have been named the winner of the Best Bank category by The Commercial Appeal's "Memphis Most" competition!
Paragon Bank has begun the 2014-2015 school year by displaying artwork from Memphis Oral School for the Deaf students in the lobby of its Saddle Creek banking center (7600 Poplar Avenue). Located in Germantown, Memphis Oral School for the Deaf offers education to hearing-impaired children to equip them with a solid education foundation and an equal opportunity to succeed.
Paragon Bank employees visited Le Bonheur Children's Hospital in August to deliver 10 no-sew blankets to patients staying at the facility. The no-sew blankets were made during the bank's Employee Appreciation Week, with employees taking advantage of the Assisting the Community Through Service (ACTS) program, which grants each staff member a week of paid time off per year to support nonprofit organizations of their choosing.

Advantage Tile and Grout Cleaning
Before You Replace RESTORE
Most people only notice the condition of their tile, stone and other hard surfaces when they become visibly soiled. But by the time it's finally noticeable, layer upon layer of stains, bacteria, and mineral deposits will have built-up into a mess you can't clean on your own.

With our proprietary cleaning system, Advantage Tile and Grout Cleaning can restore soiled tile, concrete, natural stone, and grout to like-new brilliance in a single service visit.
Even if your hard surfaces still look clean, they almost certainly contain unseen filth that can affect brightness and sanitation. So for complete restoration or routine maintenance, let Advantage demonstrate the amazing results of our revolutionary system.

After no other bidders appeared before Judge Christopher M. Klein, the judge approved a prior bid submitted by Ralph Alldredge, publisher of the San Andreas-based Calaveras Enterprise, and associates.
The sale by members of the Matthews family will become final in the next several weeks when Klein, chief judge of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court Eastern District of California, issues a formal order of his decision. The sale is slated to include the Irrigator, the Tracy Press and the Scotts Valley Banner.
While the Press and the Banner have been under Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection since July 2010, Patterson Irrigator, LLC remains solvent. The Irrigator, which has been printed since Aug. 31, 1911, was acquired by Tracy Press, Inc. in May 2003. Robert Matthews serves as its publisher.

Waitin' on a Woman by Brad Paisley, Music Video and Lyrics
First recording of "Waitin' on a Woman" was included on Brad Paisley's 2005 album 'Time Well Wasted'.
Three years later, Paisley re-recorded the song for inclusion on a re-issue of his 2007 album 5th Gear.
This re-recorded version was issued on June 9, 2008 and became the twenty-first chart single of Paisley's career.
The video was directed by Jim Shea and Peter Tilden.
Brad Paisley asked Andy Griffith to star in the music video, as he felt that Griffith's personality matched the personality of the older man in the song.
You can listen the song here, this is a fan made video, sorry we couldn't post the official version.
Brad Paisley - Waitin' on a Woman Lyrics
Sittin' on a bench at West Town Mall
He sat down in his overalls and asked me
You waitin' on a woman
I nodded yeah and said how 'bout you
He said son since nineteen fifty-two I've been
Waitin' on a woman
When I picked her up for our first date
I told her I'd be there at eight
And she came down the stairs at eight-thirty
She said I'm sorry that I took so long
Didn't like a thing that I tried on
But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty
Yeah she'll take her time but I don't mind
Waitin' on a woman
He said the wedding took a year to plan
You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous
Waitin' on a woman
And then he nudged my arm like old men do
And said, I'll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it
Waitin' on a woman
And I don't guess we've been anywhere
She hasn't made us late I swear
Sometimes she does it just 'cause she can do it
Boy it's just a fact of life
It'll be the same with your young wife
Might as well go on and get used to it
She'll take her time 'cause you don't mind
Waitin' on a woman
I've read somewhere statistics show
The man's always the first to go
And that makes sense 'cause I know she won't be ready
So when it finally comes my time
And I get to the other side
I'll find myself a bench, if they've got any
I hope she takes her time, 'cause I don't mind
Waitin' on a woman
Honey, take your time, cause I don't mind
Waitin' on a woman

A Flood Watch remains in effect through midnight for much of the region as more heavy rain is expected.
An additional one to two inches of rain is expected today, especially for areas north of the Roanoke Valley. If thunderstorms are able to form, locally higher rainfall totals could be seen.
Flood Warnings are in effect through 5 p.m. for Potts, Dunlap and Johns Creeks. Water levels have risen due to heavy rain this afternoon, but should start to drop as rain intensity fades during the afternoon.
A Flood Advisory is in effect until 2:30 p.m. for Alleghany, Botetourt, Craig and Greenbrier Counties and the City of Covington. Up to two inches of rain has fallen today with another one to two inches of rain expected. Low lying and poor drainage areas could see water pile up over the next couple of hours.
Water levels, while dropping, will remain high. Additional rainfall could bring levels back up and produce more flooding.
From the heavy rain in this area, the National Weather Service is reporting that a landslide has occurred on US 460 near Little Apple Dr. The report was made to the NWS by the Emergency Manager.
SHE SAID: I'm kind of on the fence with "Calvary," between full price and matinee.

Comments On Sep 17, 2014:Great at the track and in the woods, I have about 8 races and probably 20 rides total and some knobs are just started to wear off and I'm beginning to notice traction loss from wearing down. But if you race half a season is great for a back tire. Will buy again for sure. Also I ride lots of rocks and roots and it has held up great.

Comments On Jul 30, 2014:This is the best tire I have found for my bike front and rear. They wear well and it hooks up in all conditions and DOES NOT start to lose lugs and chunks like some other brands. I would recommend this tire to motocross racers, for trail riders Michelin makes a tire that is very similar but the lugs are shaped a bit differently that seems to be the tire of choice for my buddies that ride enduro.

Comments On Mar 21, 2014:This tire is the best all around tire I've come across. It does well in the sand, feels and tracks really well in a sand wash. It excels on every thing else. It even grabs the ground under mud and cleans itself really well. Predictable slide and grabs when you want it to. Love drifting this tire. Surprised there aren't a lot of reviews out there, and I still look for them even though I'm already sold on this rear. Now time to try the front and compare to the M403.

To perform a search, enter a keyword, phrase or item number in the search field and click "search."
We offer two ways to locate information:
Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
This wine has an attractive deep color, the sign of a wine that is rich in phenolic compounds. On the nose,
there are massive amounts of fruit aromas intermixed with very subtle spicy aromas, the sign of perfectly
ripe grapes. The attack is silky and round, developing density but remaining fresh. Concentrated fruity
flavors come through with lovely ripe tannins, providing good body on the mid-palate. The whole is both
rich and silky; the length of flavors is amazing, leaving a finish packed with flavor, which is not at all
drying. The ageing in barrel should provide extra aromatic complexity and roundness. The aim is to
preserve the balance, freshness and juicy crispness of this wine.
"Aromas of plums and chocolate with hints of spices. Full body, with velvety tannins and a clean finish. Lots of cedar and nuts with fruit on the finish. Better in 2016."
91 Points
James Suckling
"Bright, with a high-pitched damson plum and red currant core, followed by bitter orange, savory and iron notes on the finish. A pleasant combination of austerity and sleekness. Drink now through 2025."

What a Happy Friday! The sun is shining, the birds are singing (and probably crapping on my car), the work week is almost over, and we get brand new images from the upcoming 'Curse of Chucky', which will debut on DVD & Blu-Ray later this fall.
"Buried", "Frozen", "Phone Booth" and countless other horror/thrillers have tried their hand at the 'single location' genre as I'll call it. The genre is a problem in itself; relying exclusively on compelling characters, mysterious motives, or potential plot twists with the setting to provide exciting entertainment. For example "Buried" plays upon the charisma of Ryan Reynolds and his character's everyman plight. "Frozen" adds the wrinkle that the ski resort won't be open for another week and a blizzard is coming.
Jim Mickle's "Stake Land" will finally find it's way to VOD on April 22nd after a solid run on the convention circuit. The film is the follow up to Mickle's much adored "Mulberry Street" and has nothing to do with porter houses and a lot to do with vampires running around after the Apocalypse. Kind of wish there was some actual steak involved here.
For being so friendly the Swedes sure are a sick bunch of M'Fers. Proven completely by the new trailer for "Marianne" which has hit the tubes. The film tells the story of a father who's trying to cope with the loss of his wife, a couple daughters who hate him and the spooking happenings going on in his house. It's a real feel good hit.
It looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger might be making his way back to Terminator land sometime soon or at least that's the hope. Seems Arnold is back in the ring for acting and Chris Morgan wants to kick the series back into gear so all signs are pointing to him... being back. Get it? Like "I'll be back"? That's what he said in the movies. It's funny. "It's not a tumor!"
Looks like Intrepid Pictures, who helped bring "The Strangers" and "Doomsday" to the world are lining up "Skeleton Creek" as their next flick. The movie is apparently a teen romp based on some books that I've never heard of but I guess the kids are gaga for them. It's a group of kids who come across a ghost while exploring an abandon gold mine. I'm pretty sure this was the basis of every live action Disney movie in the 70's. I hope Don Knotts is in this one.
All babies are adorable. That's something you say before you learn about Le Yati Min, and discover that she has 12 fingers and 14 toes. No amount of cute can make you ignore that but her parents still insist on getting her into the Guinness Book of World Records. I assume for the extra digits thing, not for being the creepiest girl in the world. That would just be mean.
Speaking of records, here is one that you should actually find impressive. A Florida man is now in more trouble than he originally thought after smuggling 33 items into prison. How did he get all of them in? He shoved up his anus of course. It's like the old question people always ask. If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and could only bring 33 items shoved up your ass what would they be? What would they be!?

Vitamins, Minerals & Antioxidants
Rainbow Light vitamins are potent, nutrient-rich combinations designed to strengthen & rebalance body systems. Based off extensive research, Rainbow Light's product line of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants are built to tailor to specific lifestyle & nutrition needs.
What is the Origin of the Rainbow Light Name?
Rainbow Light began in 1981 by offering consumers a nutritious spirulina supplement and went on to become the first-ever food-based supplement brand. During nutritional content testing procedures in those early days, their researchers discovered that spirulina, when exposed to a light spectrophotometer, refracted all the colors of the rainbow.
In addition to their simple beauty, these rainbow colors revealed the full spectrum of nutritional constituents present in spirulina. Inspired by the power of nature revealed in this nourishing food base, our brand name was born! Since then, Rainbow Light has become a natural products leader and today, certified organic spirulina is still our primary food base. For 30 years, our targeted, food-based supplements have been delivering measurable health benefits and positive improvements in daily energy and vitality you can feel.
Rainbow Light's mission is to be the performance leader in building a stronger state of health for our customers, natural trade partners, global community and planet.
4 Core principles deliver measurable performance results:
Formulating Philosophy
Rainbow Light's Bio-balanced formulas are carefully developed to deliver the right balance of:
Science-based potencies are important since many of us aren't getting optimal amounts of nutrients from diet alone. As an example, B vitamins are shown to deliver important benefits for heart health, stress, nervous system, long-term brain health, metabolism and immune health, yet these vitamins are easily depleted during physical activity, illness or times of stress. Rainbow Light supplements provide therapeutic potencies based on scientific research to support optimal health today and in the long-term.
The nourishing food base of targeted, pure superfood extracts such as spirulina, beets, kale and chlorella provide the foundation of every formula. Botanical extracts such as nettles and ginger deliver important co-nutrients to enhance absorption and digestion. A customized combination of plant-source enzymes, botanicals and probiotics further support absorption and prevent stomach upset common with other dietary supplements.
Rainbow Light's products are guaranteed to be 100% natural and free of artificial colors, flavors, preservatives and other objectionable ingredients sometimes found in nutritional supplements.
At Rainbow Light, they are committed to maintaining a healthy environment, reducing carbon emissions and keeping plastic bottles from ending up in our oceans, natural habitats and landfills.
Rainbow Light is the first – and only – supplement brand to use Eco•Guard bottles made from 100% recycled, 100% recyclable material. These bottles are FDA-approved and BPA-free. By reusing post-consumer plastic, we reduce the need for virgin plastic that requires fossil fuel to produce. In addition the sleeve is made from 100% renewable plant resources with no adhesives that disrupt the recycling process. In 2010, Rainbow Light was awarded the Green Packaging award from Whole Foods Markets in recognition of their sustainability initiatives.
Eco•Guard Bottles
At Rainbow Light, they are committed to reducing their carbon footprint and keeping plastic bottles from ending up in our oceans, natural habitats and landfills.

These efforts will keep over 8 million plastic bottles out of landfills each year.

It's been a long time, GROTA
When I started this blog, along with Rob, Byron, and Jason way back after the 2004 season, I knew that, sooner or later, the real world would steal my time and my posting contributions would drop. I just didn't know how quickly it would happen.
Nevertheless, I'm sure you've noticed that I haven't been around. Probably you haven't missed me too much. But I've been one busy hombre -- I am doing regular photoshop images for another baseball blogger, which eats up some of my time, and I've also been writing a whole lot of non-baseball stuff in my spare time (some of which has already seen print.)
And that's all my hobby time -- my "real life" time is equally busy, as I am now teaching regularly. In other words, the time for Cubs baseball, and for baseball blogging, has dropped to a minimum.
Of course, I still want GROTA to stick around. We probably will never be a daily blog again, even if I keep adding writers by the half dozen. But every once in a while, the Cubs will certainly do something worth commentary, even from us busy writers who have too much going on in the "real world" to spend a lot of time thinking about the Cubs.
Regardless, this might be the last post I make for a while. Maybe I'll post again if/when the Cubs make a big free agent signing, or a trade, but who knows? I'm burned out on baseball. I don't feel as emotionally invested anymore. I think it's just a part of getting older.
In any event, I'll be back... sometime. In the meantime, there should always be something going on here, at least when "big stuff" happens like Quade being signed instead of Ryno. I've truly loved writing at GROTA. This is one of the coolest ideas I've ever had, and I'm amazed that a half decade later, it's still here. Let's give it a half decade more!
(at which point the cubs will have won a World Series and this blog will be redundant...)
You know what they say!
A watched pot never boils!
Interpret as you will.

The Associated Press reported that union members were pepper-sprayed by police in Michigan after they attempted to storm the Michigan Senate chamber after the passage of right-to-work legislation. But, you wouldnŌĆÖt know that if you watched most national news networks this morning. So far, ABC and CBS havenŌĆÖt mentioned the arrests. Al Sharpton mentioned them in a fawning pro-union piece on MSNBC, but framed them as ŌĆ£fighting back.ŌĆØ CNN is the only network that has mentioned the arrests in a negative fashion, and they failed to mention which side the protestors were on.

The Rev. George J. Schroeder will be greatly missed by friends and parishioners at Rock Island's St. Mary Catholic Church but surely will be rewarded with a Godly "well done, my good and faithful servant," according to Monsignor Paul Showalter. Rev. Schroeder, 95, of Rock Island, died last Thursday. A Mass of Christian burial will be held at 11 a.m. today at St. Mary's, with Peoria Diocesan Bishop Daniel Jenky as celebrant. Burial will be at Calvary Cemetery, Rock Island. Monsignor Showalter expects a large turnout of priests, parishioners and well-wishers paying last respects to a man he called a "rock and anchor" of Rock Island. Rev. Schroeder celebrated his 70th anniversary of ordination last June. During the more than 40 years he was St. Mary's pastor, he conducted 1,118 baptisms, prepared 854 people for confirmation, and officiated at more than 350 weddings, according to records kept by his longtime secretary and caregiver, Mary Anderson. Even after retiring in 1992, Rev. Schroeder continued to lead Mass as often as he could and lead an adult choir. He was named the church's "pastor emeritus" in 2001. Longtime parishioner Mary Kay Orth said she saw him at church four days before his death, and, watching him walk away with his cane, recalled how much he never wanted to use a walker. "He will be missed, but thank God he didn't have to suffer," Mrs. Orth said. "That was a blessing." She and her husband, Fred Orth were married by Rev. Schroeder almost 57 years ago. "He baptized all four of our children and many of our grandchildren," she said, adding that he also conducted wedding ceremonies for their two daughters. "It's like he's been part of your family," she said. "And we'll never have that situation of having the same priest around that long again." "He was so deeply loved by the people there," said Monsignor Showalter, who succeeded Rev. Schroeder at St. Mary's before becoming a priest at St. Pius X Catholic Church in Rock Island, followed later by becoming vicar general for the Peoria Diocese. "Father Schroeder was an outstanding, caring priest and pastor, and was a good friend," Monsignor Showalter said. "There are so many great stories about him. He had such a great sense of humor." "He didn't waste a thing," Monsignor Showalter said. "I remember him going around to all the churches in the diocese and buying old bells that were no longer going to be used and bringing them back to St. Mary's." Furniture in Rev. Schroeder's home included chairs once thrown out at the church and a porch railing that once was a communion rail. "And every time he bought a new car, he would take the hub caps off and put them in the garage," Monsignor Showalter said. "When he got ready to trade it in, he'd put them back on." "He was always a cash-and-carry kind of guy," Bud Miller, of Moline, said. Mr. Miller recalled Rev. Schroeder's visits to a local plumber's shop and how he would talk to plumbers, pipe-fitters and other tradesmen, and then go back to St. Mary's to make repairs himself. Mr. Miller was master of ceremonies at Rev. Schroeder's retirement party."He was such a good guy, and a religious man, who was really good with kids," Mr. Miller said. "I have known Father Schroeder my entire life," Carol Danek said. "He gave me all of my sacraments. He was my pastor throughout my grade school years at the old St. Mary's School. "He never hesitated to come into the school to question us about what we were learning," she said. "At recess, he played baseball with us and flooded some of the parking area for an ice-skating rink in the winter." She said he also was responsible for introducing her to her husband, John Danek. "When my husband came to Rock Island as a young man, he contacted St. Mary's about a CYO (Catholic Youth Organization) or Dominic club where he might meet some young people," Mrs. Danek said. "Father bluntly asked him 'Are your looking for a girl to take out? I have lots of girls in the parish who like to eat.' " Rev. Schroeder looked over his list, "matched us up and married us, and we are still married after 43 years," Mrs. Danek said. "Father always said that we were one of his success stories" -- one of hundreds and hundreds he cherished. The Rev. George J. Schroeder bio box Born: April 25, 1917Hometown: Chicago Education: St. Francis Xavier Grade School, and Quigley Preparatory Seminary High School, both in Chicago; St. Mary of the Lake Seminary, Mundelein; Canisianum Seminary, Innsbruck, Austria; International Pontifical College, Sion, Switzerland; St. Meinrad, Ind, Seminary; ordained June 7, 1942, St. Mary's Cathedral, Peoria.Experience: St. Mary's Catholic Church administrator in 1948 and parish pastor in 1951; retiring in 1992.Noteworthy moments: Had a multi-purpose parish center named Schroeder Hall in his honor; Named St. Mary pastor emeritus in 2001.

The Internet offers that great opportunity to find a better price on a hard-to-find item. As soon as you see it, you want to snatch it up. But instead, what you need to is slow down and make sure that hard-to-find item isn't really just a slippery sales technique.
It's one of those stories where the eager buyer says "lesson learned." But instead of choosing to move on, he called the I-Team from Philadelphia to warn consumers in metro Atlanta about too-good-to-be-true deals.Dean Coletta is a personal fitness trainer who says he doesn't take lacing up lightly. Just look in his closet. It's sneaker central. But, he still wanted another pair. "It's a high-end Nike sneaker that's quite expensive to buy retail," Coletta said. He found it, but wasn't willing to pay the hefty $180 price tag. That was okay because online he found a cheaper model on the website Discount Shoes Outlet. "At first blush, the website seemed fine and very professionally done, and no, I did not notice anything," Coletta said.That is, except the much lower price tag on older models. Coletta said he called the toll-free number and heard what the I-Team did when they called. Because of the high call volume, the shoe would have to be ordered through the Discount Shoes Outlet website. "They had last year's and the years before, and typically, it was a $95 discount down to a more reasonable price. I did order two pairs," Coletta said.And that was the end of that. Really, the end. Coletta contacted the Better Business Bureau to say he never received his shoes. He says he never got his more than $150 back and he says he never got to talk to anyone with the Georgia-based company. That's where the I-Team comes in. Discount Shoes Outlet is in Grayson, Ga. State records show the owner is Kingsley Omesiete, Jr. His Twitter account says he's "Somewhat of a serial entrepreneur." But, he leaves out his company's "F" rating with the BBB and his criminal record. According to the Gwinnett Police Department, Omesiete has a record of aggravated assault and aggravated battery, as well as burglary. When the I-Team went out to speak with Omesiete at his company headquarters, what they found was a beautiful home situated on a quiet cul-de-sac. A woman who turned out to be his mother answered the door. She said she didn't know much more than the business used to operate out of her home. But, she said, her son was gone and she wasn't sure where he went. Shortly after that visit, Omesiete called the FOX 5 I-Team. He agreed to meet, but then abruptly canceled. Now, the Governor's Office of Consumer Protection has an open investigation into the discount shoe salesman whose prices really are too good to be true. Coletta said, "Well, that's good, that's good, because clearly he did not give that much concern when he operated under the disguise of a legitimate business -- out of his mom's home, no less. So, I'm glad something is happening.Omesiete says his business struggled because of too many charge backs. Charge backs are when the credit card company is asked to review the charge or if credit is denied – or, perhaps for a technical problem.But, Omesiete says he never went into any more detail than that. So, right now it's difficult to determine if he plans to return money to his customers.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana House Democrats on Monday ended a three-day boycott of the Legislature over a contentious labor bill but are not promising to stay long enough to allow a final vote on the divisive measure.
House Democratic Leader Patrick Bauer told The Associated Press that Democrats are returning "just for today."
Republicans want to make Indiana the first state in more than a decade to enact right-to-work legislation, which bans employment contracts that require mandatory union fees for representation. House Democrats stalled work at the opening of Indiana's 2012 legislative session last week by denying Republicans the 67 members on the floor they need to conduct any business.
The measure is expected to face an easy path through the state Senate, where Republicans outnumber Democrats 37-13.
Rep. Jerry Torr, R-Carmel, said that if House Democrats decide to stay in session the right-to-work measure could make it to the governor's desk as soon as two weeks from now.
But if they use a start-and-stop approach to stall the measure further, Republicans will be ready with fines, he said.
"So if their idea is, come in one day be gone two days, come in a day be gone two, that's not going to fly to fly for very long at all," he said.
Republicans imposed $1000-per-day fines for absences after a five-week walkout last year over the same issue.
The measure could reach Gov. Mitch Daniels' desk well before the Feb. 5 Super Bowl in Indianapolis. Daniels has made the labor bill one of his top priorities for the 2012 session and appeared in television ads pushing the measure. Last week, the NFL Players Association called the bill "a political ploy designed to destroy basic workers' rights."
National right-to-work advocates came close in November to making New Hampshire the first right-to-work state since Oklahoma passed the measure in 2001 but could not find the votes to override a veto from Democratic Gov. John Lynch. The issue had been largely dormant since the late 1940s and '50s but has enjoyed a resurgence following the GOP's sweep in statehouses across the nation in 2010.
