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.
Malbec is one of Mendoza's most important and impressive grapes, delivering intense, well-structured wines. Our 2008 Malbec opens with an attractive rich-purple hue, followed by bright aromas of fresh cherries, red currant, plum and violets. The red fruit maintains its vibrancy through the long, broad palate, flanked by warm notes of vanilla, cocoa and smoke. Round tannins lend structure to the palate, holding the fruit into the finish. This wine makes an excellent companion to dishes with good fat content, such as beef tenderloin with butter or cream sauce and potatoes.
The Navarro Correas family descends from the Correas family, an old and prestigious name related to the production and manufacturing of high-quality wines. The family history dates back to 1798, when Sir Juan de Dios Correas planted the first vine seeds in the lands of Mendoza at the foot of the Andes ridge. Sir Juan De Dios also played an active role in the public life of Mendoza,...Read More About Navarro Correas
(ahr-jen-TEE-nah) Now fifth in the world for wine production, Argentina is catching up in the quality wine sector. A long time wine producer, Argentina used to make wine in order to drink it, not export it. And so the wines produced were quaffable and rustic and made for the local's everyday dinner.

After LeBron James made it clear he was joining forces with Dwyane Wade
and Chris Bosh in Miami, not only did the Heat instantly became the
biggest threat to dethrone the two-time defending champion Lakers, but
now has the potential to collect a lot more hardware down the road due
to the average age of their three-headed monster being only 26. Only
before could such a 'Super Team' be created by arm-chair General
Managers in virtual reality, duping the computer into accepting
lopsided deals where player ratings reign supreme and factors such as
youth, contract, and importance to their respective cities fall by the
wayside. But what once was an unreal fantasy has now turned into a
harsh reality for the rest of the league.
With arguably three of the top 15 players in the league on the same
team, at different positions, it's difficult to find a chink in their
armor. There are concerns about chemistry, or a lack thereof. Depth
must also be taken into consideration, as it looks like it'll be the
Big Three and not much else. Lastly, while the Heat could become a
nightmare on the perimeter defensively, there is a lot to be desired on
the interior. But this isn't the NCAA Tournament where all it takes is
one flawless game from the underdog, reminiscent of Villanova over
Georgetown in the 1985 championship game, for David to knock off
Goliath. It takes a sustained effort over the course of a seven game
series to accomplish that feat.
For all of the Trail Blazers fans out there looking for an '85 Delorean
and flux capacitor in hopes of heading back to June 28th, 2007 and
convincing Portland management to select Kevin Durant instead of Greg
Oden, relax, because the choice is becoming increasingly apparent.
While Durant is already living up to the 'scoring assassin' label
former GM, Kevin Pritchard dubbed him during his pre-draft workout in
Portland and is arguably the more talented player than his 2007 draft
counterpart, his skill set, added to the current roster, will not send
BlazerManiacs storming down Broadway, hanging from light fixtures or
filling up Pioneer Square for a championship rally. While Roy, Durant,
and Aldridge would undoubtedly be the greatest trifecta in Blazers
history, it wouldn't be enough to overthrow the Heat. To conquer the
unconquerable, Portland must possess something, someone which is
unattainable by any other franchise.

Outstanding in every way!!!!!!!!!
We could not have had more FUN! The home is beautiful, well equipped and is full of games and toys to keep all ages entertained for the entire week. Our family ranged from age 77 to 3 and there was something for EVERYONE. The property is beautiful and the home is lovely both inside and out. It was the perfect home for our 50th wedding anniversary with the whole clan. The owners were friendly and helpful in every way. We had so much fun that everyone wants to return again and make it an annual reunion!!!!! Would we recommend this property? ABSOLUTELY! It has our very highest recommendation. You will love it!
The best place to stay in Sun Valley!!
This house is perfect! Huge, incredibly well equipped, and close to both Hailey and Sun Valley. Virtually every room has a view of the Big Wood River. Watching the birds from the breakfast table was a treat. Comfortable beds, great media room, and a fully stocked kitchen and pantry. Easy to cook in, and convenient for going out. Quite simply, this is a wonderful place to stay. We liked it so much last year that we came back this year.

Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn't really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That's because they were able to connect experiences they've had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they've had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people.
Unfortunately, that's too rare a commodity. A lot of people in our industry haven't had very diverse experiences. So they don't have enough dots to connect, and they end up with very linear solutions without a broad perspective on the problem. The broader one's understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have.Steve Jobs, Wired, February 1996
Something I heard recently:
Surround yourself with talented, intelligent people who don't agree with you.
I have a lot of thoughts brewing about this. Many have articulated themselves much better than I (uh, Frank Chimero?), but the idea is that through things like Svpply, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, Facebook … we inundate ourselves with information we want to be inundated with. That is, people sharing similar tastes and outlooks.
While this is, obviously, an attractive situation, it can also be very destructive, that we silo the information we're exposed to.
It's so refreshing to discover dissenting opinions, to hear and accept criticism. These things aren't negative, they're rejuvenating, inspiring and necessary for personal and professional growth.
Updating poorly, as I've been on the road quite a bit, working on freelance projects and gearing up for a new full-time job(!!!), wisdom teeth removal, and a trip to California … but more on all that later!!
For the time being, follow me on Twitter (@hahaha_haley) and Pinterest (hahahahaley)!

Show off chic cafeteria style with this easy-to-make -- and easy-to-wash -- lunch bag.
To begin, cut a 12- to 16-inch section from a pant leg. Fold over a 1/2-inch strip around the top and sew it down to create a casing.
Through an opening left in the casing, thread a 3-foot length of cord and knot the two ends together.
To form the bag's bottom, cut another piece of fabric from the pants, about 1/2-inch larger than the leg's circumference. Turn the leg inside out and sew the two pieces together.
Customize the bag with patches, fabric paints or buttons.

We took out the GFCI outlet as it kept tripping and turning off the frig in the garage. Our jetted tub stopped working (no power to the plug at all) and the outlet says GFCI protected. Do we have to put the GFCI back in to get the tub to work?
The GFCI that you removed was controlling the circuit to the jetted tub. Here's the deal: You must have GFCI protection to the tub to meet code and be safe. It is supposed to be a dedicated line - meaning that the only thing on the line is that tub. It sounds like yours was wired up so that the same circuit powered both the tub and the garage outlet.
The proper approach would be to get an electrician in to rewire so that there is a dedicated line to the tub that is GFCI protected. Then have them find another source of power to the garage. The garage also must be on a GFCI line to meet code although it's not as critical a safety issue as the circuit with the tub.
There is a possible simple solution: GFCI outlets can go bad and become too sensitive. You could try just replacing the GFCI that you removed with a new one and see what happens. Be aware that even a properly functioning GFCI can be tripped by things like lightning.

Performance for Pay? The Relation Between CEO Incentive Compensation and Future Stock Price Performance
Michael J. Cooper
University of Utah - David Eccles School of Business
Huseyin Gulen
Purdue University - Krannert School of Management
P. Raghavendra Rau
University of Cambridge
January 30, 2013
We find evidence that CEO pay is negatively related to future stock returns for periods up to three years after sorting on pay. For example, firms that pay their CEOs in the top ten percent of excess pay earn negative abnormal returns over the next three years of approximately -8%. The effect is stronger for CEOs who receive higher incentive pay relative to their peers. Our results appear to be driven by high-pay induced CEO overconfidence that leads to shareholder wealth losses from activities such as overinvestment and value-destroying mergers and acquisitions.

This well-honed bespoke light fitting, milled from a solid block of aluminium, will shortly illuminate Villa S, a cast in-situ concrete house, near Heidelberg, in South Germany.
The light unit measures 12cm x 12cm x 8cm and provides both interior and exterior coverage. Its size ensures it works within the structural parameters of the concrete ceilings. Furthermore, and in accordance with the dwelling's minimal aesthetic, the design delivers a perfectly flush finish when recessed.
12 x 12 comprises a grid configuration of 49 1W LEDs mounted on a platina plate, combined with a highly polished stainless steel reflector and a specially satinized plexi-glass cover. The result is a low energy, high performance light fitting that delivers an even spread of emitted light.

While its design may not be for everyone, the Harman Kardon BT is one of the best-sounding Bluetooth headphones available.
It's great that Tivoli added Bluetooth streaming to its great little PAL radio, but its $300 price tag is excessive.
The MDR-XB950BT Extra Bass Bluetooth Headset is a $199.99/AU$249.95 wireless headphone that -- you guessed it -- serves up a generous helping of bass.
While it has its sound limitations, particularly in the bass department, the downsized version of Scosche's BoomBottle H2O is a pretty decent little wireless speaker that's travel-friendly and repels water.
The iSimple BluClik is an easy way enhance safety and keep hands on the wheel by adding simple media controls to vehicles without standard steering wheel buttons.
The Philips BT3500 may not excel in any one area, but its slim design is appealing and it delivers decent performance for an affordable price.
The Philips BT2500's slim design and budget price make it an appealing, travel-friendly mini Bluetooth speaker.

The Great Debate UK
from The Great Debate:
Accounting change won't save banking
—James Saft is a Reuters columnist. The opinions expressed are his own. –
By all means reform accounting, but for pity's sake take your time and keep your expectations low.
Suspending mark-to-market accounting immediately as a means of levitating banks out of peril simply won't work. While transparency may or may not be the foundation of banking, trust undoubtedly is.
"Adjusting" or suspending fair value accounting, even if you swear up and down that this time it's even more fair will erode rather than build trust and repel rather than attract capital.
The House Financial Services Subcommittee on Capital Markets, Insurance, and Government Sponsored Enterprises, led by Congressman Paul Kanjorski of Pennsylvania today is holding a hearing on mark-to-market and already the industry knives are out.

Drivers get ready. A detour that will be in place for two years starts next week on a busy road in Valdosta.
Construction started today on the $9 million West Hill Avenue overpass.
Officials say they know the detour will cause some frustration, but the project will eventually help traffic near downtown run a lot smoother.
They say the overpass is needed because of long wait times drivers experience when trains pass through town.
"It's going to be a lot easier for everyone to get though Valdosta and get around town to do their business. To have businesses being here they don't have to be delayed by these trains anymore," said Corey Hull, Transportation Planner, Southern Georgia Regional Commission.
Starting Tuesday, the detour will begin in downtown Valdosta and take drivers down Gil Harbin Boulevard and back up St. Augustine Road.
It's expected to add an extra five minutes to your drive.

Qualities of An Effective Team Lead, Part 1 of 4
This was a four-part series written for the inHOWse blog. Here is the introduction to Part 1. If you follow the link to the article, you'll see the other three parts.
What are the characteristics of a leader that others want to follow? As you'll soon see, this list is a very personal one. In other words, we'd all come up with different elements when building the list.
What I've tried to do, though, is to think of a complete leader. So I've asked myself this question: can I imagine a leader who isn't fair, for instance. The answer is obviously no. Each one of these, then, describes a leader's characteristics, any one of which might hinder their effectiveness if missing in any significant proportion. What I'd encourage you to do--maybe even before you read this list--is to first make up your own list and compare it with mine. (These are not presented in any particular order.)Read More

ReCourses: inHOWse blog on Reevaluating In-House Value
Most of my work (through ReCourses) is with independent, small- to mid-sized firms in the marketing space. But I get asked to consult with in-house departments, such as Verizon, Hallmark, PriceWaterHouse, Whole Foods, Hartford Life, Toyota, Compassion Intl, etc. Probably 40 in all over the years.
In some cases, I've been asked to "audit" the output of the in-house department to justify its existence on financial grounds. In other words, some C-level executive is questioning whether or not they should even have an in-house department.
Here's something I think you'll find interesting: in every case that I've done such an exercise, having an in-house department has proven to be more expensive than using outside firms.Read More

James Webb Space Telescope Sunshield Test Unfolds Seamlessly
NASA's Amazing Daily Image
A major test of the sunshield for NASA's James Webb Space Telescope was conducted recently by Northrop Grumman in Redondo Beach, California. For the first time, the five sunshield test layers were unfolded and separated; unveiling important insights for the engineers and technicians as to how the deployment will take place when the telescope launches into space. "These tests are critical and allow us to see how our modeling works and learn about any modifications we may need to make in our design as we move into sunshield flight production," said Jim Flynn, Webb sunshield manager. The three-day test took place in July, taking seven engineers and six technicians about 20 hours to complete. On orbit, the sunshield will take several days to unfold. "Tests on the ground are a little bit tricky because we have to account for gravity," says Flynn. "Webb won't face those same challenges in space. To overcome challenges on the ground, our technicians came up with the idea to rest the layers on a structure of metal beams covered by plastic." The tennis court-sized sunshield, which is the largest part of the observatory, will be folded up around the Webb telescope's mirrors and instruments during launch. As the telescope travels to its orbit one million miles from Earth, it will receive a command to unfold and separate the sunshield's five layers into their precisely stacked arrangement with its kite-like shape. The sunshield separates the observatory into a warm, sun-facing side (reaching temperatures close to 400 degrees Farenheit), and a cold side (185 degrees below zero) where the sunlight is blocked from interfering with the sensitive telescope instruments. It provides the instruments with an effective sun protection factor, or SPF, of one million. The sunshield's membrane layers, each as thin as a human hair, are made of Kapton, a tough, high-performance plastic coated with a reflective metal. On orbit, the observatory will be pointed so that the sun, Earth and moon are always on one side, with the sunshield acting as an umbrella to shade the telescope mirrors and instruments from the warmer spacecraft electronics and the sun. Northrop Grumman subcontractor NeXolve is currently manufacturing the flight sunshield layers at their facilities in Huntsville, Ala. The five flight layers will be delivered to Northrop Grumman in 2016, when extensive testing will continue, followed by integration with the entire observatory.

We went to the same high school and both matriculated the same year, although we were not friends & did not know how soon our paths would meet in an unexpected place. Ulrich qualified as a game ranger at Allenby campus in Centurion where he did his diploma in Game Farm Management and Conservation and soon started his career in the hospitality industry in 2004 as a junior game ranger guiding in the Waterberg, working under then Lodge Manager Louis Strauss (now the GM at Jock Safari Lodge). Arline studied Health & Skincare at Success International Health & Skincare Academy on the Westrand and started her career in the hospitality industry as a spa therapist at the very same lodge that Ulrich was working. We married in 2007 and continued on to work various lodges over the past years. We gained experience in many aspects of lodge management.
How did you come to be the Lodge Managers of the property?
In 2009 we set off for what was going to be a 3 year contract in lodge management in Botswana. Very quickly we realised that work permits were going to be a very big problem and were sent back to South Africa. We ended up on a 2 month contract for Nkomazi Game Reserve. The GM at the time joked with us saying that we should stay at Nkomazi and have babies. Our work permits for Botswana eventually came through and we were very surprised that we were granted 3 year permits! Very excited about the permits, we returned to Botswana, but God had other plans for our lives. On our first stint of time-off we found out that we were expecting! Our future was unsure now, as our contract in Botswana clearly stated that we were not allowed to have children on the reserve. A random phone call from Louis Strauss, the then GM of Nkomazi, came with an offer of employment, as he had just resigned to move to our other property Jock Safari Lodge. We started as Lodge managers of Nkomazi Game Reserve on 10 November 2009. There was truth in the jest about us staying & having babies! We welcomed our 2nd child in 2012.
How would you describe your management style?
Its quite informal as we are peoples persons and like to interact closely with our team. We both still enjoy guiding & spa therapy. Our department managers and their individual teams are the real stars of the Nkomazi show and we like to manage from the bottom up. They all have their areas of expertise and responsibility and are given maximum scope and recognition to achieve their goals, within clearly defined standards of performance. We love surrounding ourselves with strong, creative and innovative people and guests have often commented on the feeling of mutual respect and good humour during their stay. At the end of the day we are all in it for one reason only, our guests!
What motivates you? How do you motivate others?
The constant human energy of passionate committed people around us is a big motivator and of course we also live on a stunning reserve with constantly changing moods, daily and throughout the year. At Nkomazi we also love an exciting challenge and having to constantly think on our feet. We are particularly blessed with a staff compliment who are no strangers to interesting challenges, know how to rise to them, and get a big kick out of solving them. In short, they dont need much motivating, theyre real self starters! Never before in any lodge environment have we come across such honest, warm hearted and professional staff. This is a happy family!
What is your favourite creature feature of the property?
Those magnificent Makhojwa Mountains in the background, they change all the time, depending on the time of day and season, and the incredible granite rock formations that often jut out of nowhere. Anyone who has ever travelled into the Mawelawela Valley and experienced those immense aloe-filled cliffs, thick forests and crystal clear streams, cant help waxing lyrical!
What are the Unique Selling Points of your property?
We hope we will still have many good seasons here at Nkomazi!
We look forward to have you as our guest in the camp!

From the iconic Neo-Gothic Trinity Chapel to the striking 21st century Zachs Hillel House and the warm and welcoming Muslim Prayer Room at South Summit, students have many places where they may practice their faith and find community.
The Trinity College Chapel serves as a center for Christian life on campus. In addition, it is home for activities as diverse as carillon concerts and Zen meditation. The Chapel is a place of prayer, a meeting space for conversation, a center for rich and varied cultural activities, and a valuable resource for students and faculty of all faiths. It is also home to the Office of the Chaplain.
The Trinity College Chapel is one of the most distinctive buildings on campus. This landmark structure embodies the history of the College and the best of Trinity's architectural heritage. Built in the English Gothic style in 1933 and visible from miles around, the Chapel is one of the most impressive buildings of its kind in the United States. Philip Hubert Frohman of the firm Frohman, Robb and Little, who also served as the architect for the National Cathedral in Washington, designed the Trinity College Chapel.
The Chaplain's Office also is located in the Chapel building.The Chapel is open during the day and most evenings when services and events are scheduled. It offers all who enter a sanctuary. Within the main chapel are two smaller chapels, which can also be used for private prayer and meditation: the Friendship Chapel, on the main floor; and the Crypt Chapel, on the lower level. There is a prayer request box near the Friendship Chapel or through this website. The chaplains honor these requests during Chapel services and at other times throughout the week. Of course, the Chapel also offers a variety of religious services.The Trinity College Chapel also may be reserved for wedding ceremonies by students, alumni, faculty, staff, and the children and parents of these individuals. People are welcome to invite their own pastor to serve as officiant, as long as this person is ordained in his or her tradition and is licensed as required by the State of Connecticut. The Trinity College chaplain also is available to serve as officiant at wedding ceremonies which follow the liturgies of the Episcopal Church. The Roman Catholic chaplain also is available to preside at this sacrament in the Trinity College Chapel. To reserve the Chapel and for more information, please contact the assistant to the Chaplain at 860-297-2126. To make arrangements for a service, please contact Chaplain Allison Read (email@example.com, 860-297-2013) or Chaplain Damion Hutchins (firstname.lastname@example.com, 860-297-2012).

The MacGregor Prestwick Putter captures the traditional spirit of the game while embracing the latest technology. It features roll-enhancing ARC face technology. The clubface has a finely milled surface that delivers incredible consistency. A contemporary champagne finish makes the Prestwick putter look as beautiful as it plays.
ARC face milling features an innovative texture in the strike area of the putter face. This means more consistent contact between the ball and face regardless of where they meet. The result is improved roll with less bouncing and skidding, leading to more putts holed.

A Duluth Taco Mac has had stellar inspection scores, rarely dipping below an A rating. But that changed during a recent routine health inspection after points were deducted because employees handled raw meat then ready-to-eat food without first washing their hands.
The restaurant at 3543 Peachtree Industrial Boulevard was given a failing score of 60, and managers were instructed to re-train and monitor the staff on cross contamination prevention.
According to the report, an employee wearing gloves handled raw beef then some buns, and another handled raw meat then placed cooked chicken on a salad. The salad and buns were thrown away.
Employees are supposed to change their gloves and also wash their hands between glove changes, especially when moving from raw meat to ready-to-eat foods, according to the inspector.
Taco Mac also had a few other code violations, such as black, mold-like growth on the margarita machine nozzle, some undercooked chicken and a few cold food items that weren't being kept cold enough.
A manager at the restaurant did not want to comment about the report but said the restaurant would be re-inspected within 10 days. Taco Mac's last two inspection scores were 91 and 96.
Here are some updated inspection scores from recently reviewed restaurants: Chico & Chang, 447 Ponce de Leon Ave., Atlanta, 80/B; Corner Café, 6810 Shannon Parkway, Union City, 99/A; Grand Buffet, 2625 Piedmont Road, Atlanta, 91/A; Great Wall Buffet, 4484 Jimmy Lee Smith Parkway, Hiram, 75/C.

Paradise Colors: Summer-inspired Eye look
It's time to jazz things up with some brighter colors, inspired by the runways. I'm doing a tropical-paradise color scheme, with lush emerald green, rich brown, and a glowing turquoise.
You will also need a brown pencil for definition and an aqua/turquoise (optional) colored pencil to echo the blue on the waterline.
I used Coastal Scents Hot Pots on the lids and Bourjois pencils, but do use any alternatives you have. You can do a look with similar colors; they don't need to be identical.
Step 1: Instead of following the color-wheel (blue, green, brown), I wanted a little extra contrast by putting the brightest color in the center of the lid, where it will pop against the dark brown.
Apply along the inner 1/3 of the lower lash line as well.
Step 2: Pick up the bright aqua or blue and pack it down the center of the lid. Don't blend it out too much as you want the color to be quite intense.
Apply the same along the center portion of the lower lash line.
Step 3: Pack the dark brown into the outer 1/3 of the lids, and then gently run it inwards along the socket line, until you reach about the center of the lids, above the bright aqua.
As before, run the dark brown along the outer 1/3 of your lower lash lines to finish.
Step 4: Here's the fun part. Run a brown pencil along the upper lash line for definition and some extra contrast against the aqua blue.
On the lower lash line, I actually used a bright turquoise blue pencil (Bourjois 54 Bleu Clinquant) to match and intensify it.
Then I finished with black mascara.

PRINCETON, N.J. – The ECHL on Friday announced that Gwinnett's Andy Brandt has been selected as the recipient of the 2012-13 ECHL Community Service Award. Brandt is a Wausau West graduate and played on Wisconsin's 2006 national championship team.Each ECHL team was given the opportunity to nominate a player for their efforts in community and charitable causes during the 2012-13 season. The nominations were voted on by League Office personnel. Beginning last season, after the Gladiators' Teddy Bear Toss delivery to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Brandt spearheaded an initiative to keep the Gladiators involved at the hospital through volunteer work by organizing ongoing player visits each month. Brandt and other members of the organization assist with the hospital's weekly bingo each Thursday night. Brandt is also active in the local Atlanta Youth Hockey scene as the youth hockey coordinator at the Cooler in Alpharetta. Following Gladiators' practice, he can be found at the Cooler helping to coordinate, organize and set-up the youth hockey practices and activities for the youth hockey program. He also spearheaded the Gladiators' Movember crusade to spread the word concerning men's cancer awareness. Brandt helped the Gladiators institute the campaign and participated in promotional activities to further prevention and awareness to the cause. Brandt has also been the Gladiators' leading voice for environmental preservation. His efforts have helped to minimize waste and energy with the club's hockey operations.
He has played with the Gladiators for six seasons.
