The Falcons went pretty much according to plan with their first pick, grabbing OLB Sean Weatherspoon with their #19 overall pick. Media and fans alike were generally happy and thought it was a good move to fit a glaring need on defense with a potential playmaker. Of course drafts never go as planned, but many felt that if the Falcons passed on a DT in the first round that they would likely wait until a good bit later (4th or 5th round perhaps) to address a fairly unstable defensive tackle position. They were wrong. After not having a second round pick, fans watched excruciatingly as pick after pick came off the board. They wanted a big splash to make them feel better after not having a second rounder. And then the name scrolled across the board: Defensive Tackle from Kentucky Corey Peters. What?
Many had learned a little about Peters here in The Bird Cage after he was featured among many players in the Mock Drafts put forth. He was thought to be a good player, but surely could be gotten in the later rounds (5th, 6th, or maybe even the 7th). Fans felt a mix of shock, disgust, and confusion when Peters became the newest Atlanta Falcon. Defensive tackle was surely going to be addressed due to Peria Jerry's fragile injury concerns and Jonathan Babineaux's future suspension, which could be anywhere from 2 to 8 games. Obviously an entirely different situation, but Ben Roethlisberger wasn't charged and received 4-6 games. Rookie and former 7th round pick Vance Walker and former Undrafted Free Agent Thomas Johnson played really well in backup roles, but would you really want to depend on them out of the gate? And according to Mike Smith, Jamaal Anderson has not permanently moved to defensive tackle. Trey Lewis did have an injury free season, but was pretty ineffective overall and didn't see much action.
The arrows then got pointed at the newest Falcon Corey Peters, not because of his production, but because all the draft "experts" hadn't predicted that Peters would go before the 6th round in most scenarios. Peters fits Coach Smith and DC Van Gorder's defensive scheme perfectly, with his size (6'3, 300), quickness, and ability to disrupt the line of scrimmage. Many immediately panned the pick as a huge reach, but after taking a second look at his college production, skill level, and the fact that many teams were also targeting him around then, it may be beneficial to take another glance.
Tyson Alualu (10th overall) – 11.5 Tackles for Loss, 7.5 Sacks
Dan Williams (26th overall) – 9 TFL, 2.5 Sacks
Jared Odrick (28th overall) – 11 TFL, 7 Sacks
Brian Price – 23.5 TFL, 7 Sacks
Torrell Troup – 5 Tackles for Loss, 2 Sacks
Lamarr Houston – 22 Tackles, 8 Sacks
Linval Joseph – 13 TFL, 3 Sacks
Mike Neal – 11.5 TFL, 5.5 Sacks
Terrence Cody – 6 TFL, 0 Sacks
D'Anthony Smith – 2.5 TFL, 3.5 Sacks
Earl Mitchell – 12.5 TFL, 6.5 Sacks
Corey Peters – 12 TFL, 4 Sacks
4th Round
Geno Atkins – 10.5 Tackles for Loss, 3 Sacks
5th Round
Cam Thomas – 2.5 Tackles for Loss, 0 Sacks
Arthur Jones – 7 TFL, 1.5 Sacks
Obviously, stats don't ever tell the whole story because it doesn't take into account schemes, players, teammates, competition, coaches, etc., but it is a nice barometer to at least try and gauge players at a similar position. Going by pure stats alone, it's hard to argue that Corey Peters was THAT much of a reach in the third round, particularly considering the run on defensive tackles at that point in time. Notice that only three defensive tackles were taken in the next 3 rounds (4th-5th-6th) after Peters was selected. Peters matched or had better senior year production (tackles for loss and sacks) than Dan Williams, Torrell Troup, Linval Joseph, Mike Neal, Terrance Cody, and D'Anthony Smith; all drafted before him. After going back to make sure that Peters was in fact rated low, it was surprising to see that he actually was slotted for the 3rd-4th round by NFLDraftScout and a "mid-rounder" by DraftCountdown, meaning the same area.
Peters is a tough and quick defensive tackle that was highly productive throughout his career in the SEC, something that is highly regarded by Dimitroff and Co. Made 2nd Team All-SEC, behind only Terrance Cody and Dan Williams both drafted ahead of him. He definitely has areas that need improvement, such as developing his pass-rush technique and making sure his motor is on high all the time, but those are surely areas that can be coached up. He was an extremely hard worker with superb grades and character, another trait high on TD's list. While Peters certainly wasn't the biggest name left, it's hard to argue that it was a big reach since their was a run on DTs, he was mostly slotted at that point anyway, other teams were getting ready to draft him, he feels a big need, and he could turn into an excellent player, and possibly even become a starter in the near future. Assuming he proves himself on the field, the selection of Peters officially makes defensive tackle one of the deepest positions on the team.

falcon21 and Sarah B.__Hey guys and gals are doing well. Cheers you both.
falcon21__Is Richt under the gun a little bit after these recent fiascos in Athens? Talked to a friend that lives in Athens and says that the Athens radio stations have turned up the heat a little bit. If we don't win the East this year, than I would have to say his job may be in jeopardy. If we can't beat Florida after they have 9 players drafted into the NFL, we'll never do it. d@mn
CONGRATS AGAIN!__to JJ for being crowned NFL 1st Round Mock Draft Champion and Falcon Devil for Falcons Full Mock Draft Champ!
Corey Peters__Initially, I was like many other fans in sharing the shock and disgust with the pick. But after further examination, I really like this pick a lot. DT is obviously a big need for us, as we've all discussed at length in here in The Bird Cage. My sneaking suspiscion is that Babs will be suspended upwards of at least 4 games, if not even 6 or 8 games. A pretty serious offense and although he was cleared in the other incident, its still a really bad deal. Combine that with the injury history of Peria Jerry and it makes complete sense. The guy was highly productive and adds some good size, quickness, and strength to a DL in sore need of stability. A best case scenario roster depth would be a raging battle between Jonathan Babineaux, Peria Jerry, Corey Peters, Vance Walker, Thomas Johnson, Jamaal Anderson, and Trey Lewis. And worst case scenario would have us with (Babs suspended and Jerry re-injured) Jamaal Anderson, Corey Peters, Vance Walker, Thomas Johnson, and Trey Lewis. Even though the latter is certainly not ideal, losing two frontline DT starters would give us some serious depth.
Alright Cagers, enjoy the new post and we'll see you on the flip. And on that note………….

With much of the global economy back on track, now is a great time for young businesses. As trends begin to head in the right direction, businesses that make smart decisions today will see considerable results over the coming years. Here, we take a look at five ways to keep your new business on track.
1. Put content on the web
No matter what industry you're in, the internet is a space for you to take advantage of. At a totally affordable rate you can communicate and engage with your target demographic, and one of the most effective ways of doing that is by producing lively and engaging content which can be viewed and shared by potential customers around the world. This way you can tap into the power of social media to drive your business. This is a great way not only of reaching new audiences, but also of directing them towards your company website. Red Bull does this very well, for example—they have even sent a man into space, publishing the video on their website for global appeal.
2. Deal with your finances
Whatever the scale of your funds as a young business, what is essential is the accuracy of your understanding of them. It can help to seek professional advice surrounding lending and contingency planning to ensure that you have all of your bases covered when it comes to financial planning. Employing the services of outside organizations with a proven track record of supporting the process of a business turnaround may also help to provide the expertise and perspective needed to keep your company on track.
3. Monitor your competitors
In the business world, it is important that you view your competitors not as enemies but as an essential resource for your own business planning and investment. You can learn a great deal from the successes and failures of your competition, as well as being able to tailor your own services to fill gaps which are left open by competitors. Just think about tech giants such as Samsung, Google, Microsoft and Facebook—it is this competition and analysis that has led to their constant innovation.
4. Recruit for innovation and longevity
It is the staff within any business which contribute ultimately to its success. Recruitment, particularly in the early stages of a company's development, is therefore one of the most important factors to growth.
With this in mind, it is essential for businesses to recruit for beyond the short term. Rather than simply filling available roles, you must look to the future and to understand the key positions, roles and abilities which your business will benefit from some time down the line. This is what all great companies have done over the years. Think of the motto of Sir Richard Branson (the founder of Virgin) when recruiting the right talent: "A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts." Use this approach when hiring and you can build a great team around you.
5. Conduct regular reviews
The world of business is dynamic. Changes to the market, as well as changes to your competitors' strategies, can render a previously successful business plan futile, or vice versa. The only way to ensure that your company is always moving in the right direction is to conduct regular reviews of your business model and to effect change in a confident manner whenever it should become clearly necessary.
A word of caution when it comes to review, however: there are good and bad ways of doing it to motivate your staff. Take, for example, the claims made against Microsoft by Vanity Fair in a 2012 article—that Mircosoft's review structure was responsible for a lack of company innovation, and that 'stack ranking' forced team members to compete against each other rather than working collaboratively on useful projects.

TEAMS: San Antonio Spurs
Antonio McDyess has hung up his sneakers for good, retiring from the NBA after a 16-year career. From the Express-News: "The Spurs had hoped a short post-lockout season might help them convince veteran big man Antonio McDyess he could play one more season, even at age 37. On Monday they officially gave up the quest. With a deadline for fully guaranteeing McDyess' $5.22 million contract approaching at the end of the business day, the Spurs waived the 6-foot-9 forward from Alabama. 'When a player gets to a certain age and certain circumstances in his life, he knows when it's time to do certain things,' said Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, who said he spoke with McDyess last week. 'He's had a long time to think about it, all summer and fall. He finally made his decision.' The club gets to remove $2.61 million from its player payroll, a significant factor since the Spurs likely will be over the NBA's new luxury tax threshold this season. McDyess made it clear during training camp for the 2...

The night is so dark, it sticks to your skin. The young geek wanders lost through thick foliage, branches grabbing his sleeves, the glow from his pitiful penlight only serving to accentuate the crushing blackness all around. Suddenly branches snap under mysterious feet somewhere ahead, his heart base jumps into his mouth, and he nearly swallows his penlight in a vain attempt to stay hidden.
The unseen feet draw inexorably closer as the geek desperately tries to hide without making any noise, his eyes popping wide as he succeeds in a close encounter with a birch twig enema. Then the branches part before him and soft luminescence spills over his sobbing fetal form.
"Would you like a cookie, dear?" It's his mom with a tray of fresh-baked Toll Houses. He was in his backyard the whole time.
Sure, that might have been me on a Cub Scout campout, but too often, that's exactly what network security means to a harried administrator. With all kinds of real-life problems on your mind, monitoring security just isn't a day-to-day concern. Then suddenly something happens — a crash, a slowdown, a server that sounds like R2-D2 with gas. The physical checks turn up nothing, so suddenly the dreaded "What if…?" comes to mind. And then you're wandering the midnight forest with a penlight, trying to scratch up enough security expertise and data to make any kind of guess at what the problem might have been. Meanwhile, your useless supervisor turns into Jiminy Cricket, perched on your shoulder chirping his little mantra in your ear, "If only you'd paid more attention to security. If only…"
Well, swat the little insect. With a little forethought, a little planning, and a little automation, you can turn that midnight terror trudge into a calm garden stroll — or at least give yourself a bigger flashlight. On the Microsoft side, do yourself a favor and actually read the documentation on reporting. Microsoft has done loads of work on its reporting engine, yet most administrators dump this stuff right away because it's too much work, the learning curve is in the way, and it usually involves asking your boss for a SQL Server box and license. Well, bite the bullet, dent the budget, and RTFM (read the effing manual) because combined with platforms such as System Center, a regular schedule of reports can save your life when you're hunting the network for a bad-guy bug.
Even something as basic as System Center Essentials (SCE) 2007 (the SMB version of the full System Center package) has upward of 30 prepackaged reports ready to run. And if you take the time to become a true aficionado of the platform, you can create custom reports, no trouble. All you need is SCE on the front and a SQL Server 2005 box on the back — and some quality time with your schedule. Out of the box, pick summary reports — stuff that lets you see what's connected to the network and as many view slices of what's on the network as you can comprehend. Then schedule them. SCE will run these automatically and store them. You just pick a day each week (or month if you like living on the edge) to run a manual set of these checks, then compare them across stored history. While you're at it, purge history that's too old to be useful and spare your server from choking.

Creating An Entryway
For us, decorating and arranging furniture in a small space can be challenging but also very rewarding. Take for instance, the entryway. It's the one spot where guests are welcomed and get a "first impression" of your home. That's why we love Dawn's solution for her home with no formal entryway--broken down after the jump!
Here are Dawn's great solutions for creating an entryway to her home;
- Adding a bookcase. It helps with sectioning off and defining the new entryway space. Add a tray to drop keys, cell phone and sunglasses and you've got yourself a landing strip.
- Hooks utilize vertical space while giving your coats and purses a place to land--especially if there's no entryway closet to speak of.
- Hanging a shelf in the area allows you the luxury of adding your home decor to make the space feel cozy and warm. An extra shelf could also double as a landing strip instead of using a spot on the bookcase.
- The yellow watering can is a charming sight in the entryway and makes tending to plants outdoors that much easier. And because the outdoor chairs are a nice, striped pattern they don't look out of place being stored in the entryway.
- An umbrella looks fine laying in a corner nook but we like the additional pop of color from the silver umbrella stand.

what do I do with my condo where the front door opens next to the arm of a couch? :(
This is a great idea; however, the thought of the bookcase falling over in case of earthquake worries me.
Perhaps a shorter bookcase would do it just fine for me. I love the shelf and the hooks on the wall!
Great job!
nice idea, well executed. a little too black and white for my taste, but, then, i don't live there. ;)
Is that a bingo ball dispenser on the credenza?!
I did something similar in my last house, only I had an armoire instead of a bookcase.
One of my big RV reno challenges this winter will be to create an entrance in my RV. I've got a landing strip, but no place to put shoes or a coat.
where can you get a book case like that? it looks like you could make one for a fair price.
gordongraffiv, it looks like something I've seen in west elm!

Waffy Wafer Roll
Description. The dollar-store version of the Pepperidge Farm Pirouette — a rolled wafer cookie filled with an oversweetened sludge that vainly aspires to a career in cake frosting — the Waffy Wafer Roll is, well, weird.
E.L. Fudge Double Stuffed Cookies
Description. We suppose we could praise the Keebler Corporation's restraint in not describing the product as "simply packed with fudge!", but we will not, as everything else about an E.L. Fudge Double Stuffed cookie is annoying; creepy; twee; fecal; or a horrifying combination of all of these.
Keebler Cinnamon Roll Cookies (Caramel Pecan)
Description. A visual hybrid of a classic Entenmann's chocolate-chip cookie and the cinnamon roll promised by the name, the CRC is distinguished primarily by the intensity of its odor. Dr. Barkenbush furnished the samples in two Ziploc bags, themselves within a USPS Priority Mail box sealed with packing tape; the cookies still managed to suffuse the lab's entryway with the jackhammer scent of Cinnabon (a co-brander of this cookie venture).
Each cookie is festooned with pointedly random stripes of caramel — or so it appeared through eyes made watery by ersatz-pecan fumes.
Berry Burst Ice Cream Oreos
Description. To what could the nominal burst refer? Not to genuine berry, we can confidently inform you; possibly an "into tears" was stricken from the copy by the marketing department. Or a reference to a dam of Barbie-tinted carcinogens.
Spring Oreos
Description. The snack world already had a perfectly adequate "spring" Oreo. We called it "the Oreo," and between Double-Stufs, Golden Oreos, the Oreos with the Thin-Mints-esque coating, the chocolate Oreos, the other 3,283 niche flavors, and the ability of most seasonally concerned gourmands to walk outside with a famous original Oreo on an April afternoon and eat it amongst the bees and blooms, the market did not seem to cry out for a specially branded sandwich cookie in addition to pre-existing products.
The market almost assuredly did not cry out for said sandwich cookie to feature a filling the color of hangover urine. Half a dozen pastels available to denote spring — or, more particularly, Easter eggs — and which shade does Nabisco select? Not pink, which they might push to girls, or lavender, perfect to roll off the line again in June for Pride Weekend, or pale green (St. Pat's) or baby blue. No, Nabisco selected yellow, and not a gentle, baby-nursery, newborn-chick yellow, but rather a hepatitis-eyeball, B-movie-creature-teeth, neglected-meth-head-dye-job yellow.
The Spring Oreo soon became known around the Foundation Campus as, well, anything but; popular monikers included "the Or-Pee-o" and "the Needle-Shareo." But we cannot help noting that "the Spring Urino" could have overcome its unfortunate tint had Nabisco decided on a rainbow of Spring Oreo shades. Instead, the sales team evidently opted to confine variety to the cookies themselves, which come in five different designs, all equally immaterial to the Oreo experience.

Time Travel with Your Subconscious Mind
by Dan Millman
excerpted from The Four Purposes of Life
The following method enables you to engage both your conscious and subconscious mind to make a better-informed decision about career (or any other facet of life.) In a way, you're about to experience a form of time travel that engages your imaginative capacities in any decision-making process.
With practice, this time-travel process becomes simple and straightforward, and it represents an investment of just ten to fifteen minutes. You simply let your imagination travel through time. This process can help you choose the best of two, three, four, or more options. But for the sake of presenting the process, let's say someone's choosing between A and B.
Examples are Kristen deciding between two colleges; Mahmoud weighing whether to look for work in his current city, where his girlfriend lives, or to accept a good job overseas; and Maliha considering the offers of two admirers who have both proposed to her. Or there's Caleb and his start-up software company, which is beginning to take off, and he can either expand or accept a buyout from a software giant; Samantha can accept a high-paying corporate accounting job or start her own firm; Curtis has to choose whether to undergo expensive, high-risk surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation or settle his affairs and let go; and Sarah must decide whether to take an early-retirement package and minimum Social Security payments or to push on for a few more years so she'll receive maximum Social Security benefits.
The decision you face may be similar to or quite different from the examples above, but the process is the same. So here's the time-travel exercise.
1. Choose A. Settle into the idea that you have fully committed to A. This step is essential.
2. Ask yourself this three-part question:
Having committed to A, What will I be doing, what will I be feeling, and what will I look like one hour from now?
Ideally, write down the answers to the three parts of the question. Your answers may be brief, but write them down. At the very least, imagine the answers vividly. See what comes up. It's not likely to be too difficult to imagine one hour from now.
3. Ask yourself the same three-part question, but instead of one hour from now, imagine one day from now. Again, write down the responses that come up.
4. Same three-part question, but imagine one month from now.
5. Same three-part question, but imagine one year from now.
6. Same three-part question, but imagine ten years from now. At this point, you may feel like saying, Wait a minute. How can I possibly know what I'll be doing, be feeling, and look like (having committed to A) a decade hence? That's just my imagination. Right. It's your imagination - a bridge to intuitive sight. After all, why do you imagine one thing and not another?
When this process is complete, repeat it for option B. That is, say to yourself, What was I thinking? Clearly, B is the best choice! And commit to that. Feel into it. You have chosen B. Now go through all the steps just mentioned.
When you've written down (and/or vividly imagined) all your responses for both A and B (and C, if there's a third option), you will have transformed tunnel vision into a more expansive, intuitive depth and breadth of vision. This doesn't mean you will now have absolute certainty, but you'll be better prepared to make a firm decision.

NOTL - Your favourite wineries?
Four of us will be spending a day and night at The Riverbend Inn in Niagara On The Lake. Since we only have limited time I'm wondering which wineries, in your opinion, are a must?
re: pokerdan
Yes please, that would be great.
re: pokerdan
Since you're into cheeses, try Stoney Ridge near Beamsville. They have a cheese shop in the basement of their establishment that has some excellent choices.
It's been a little while since I visited the Niagara Wineries, but the ones we usually venture to are the ones where we like the wines, as in the examples below.
For example - we enjoy Peninsula Ridge (very nice show room and they have lots of wines to sample), Henry of Pelham (lots of opportunities to taste, but on the time we were there last, the staff was not greatly helpful even though it was quiet), and Cave Spring (we like the wines).
We have avoided Inniskillin the last few times - it is too busy and we never seem to get an opportunity to speak with the people at the winery about the wines and the grapes, etc
Have fun!
re: Otonabee
Funny I'd never heard of Lailey until very recently when we were given a bottle of their vidal which was quite nice.
re: millygirl
I was there a few years ago when my office did a cycling wine tour. I think that they are only just now starting to have one or two of their wines available through the LCBO. Other than that you have to order through them.
Another thing to do is ask at the Inn where they recommend. Some of the smaller places that are in that area are really interesting!
Now you're talkin' 'bout my turf Millygirl. Living in Burlington and being so close to NOTL and the Shaw Festival we spend many a weekend in Niagara. My favourite wineries are:
Peller Estates - beautiful chateau with excellent tasting facilities. Knowledgeable, helpful staff. Often do not charge for samples. My absolute favourite Niagara Chardonnay - full bodied, barrel aged with soft buttery/toffee tones. If you're looking for a good meal, the verandah overlooking the vineyard is a very nice setting for an excellent, romantic dinner.
Strewn Winery - If you're into Riesling, they do a good job.
Chateau des Charmes - another winery built as a chateau. Excellent wines and tasting facilities. They have a few unusual grapes that you do not see elsewhere in Niagara, e.g. Viognier. A very special visit is in store of Madame Bosc, the co-owner happens to be in the gift shop.
Daniel Lenko - This one will seem like an unusual choice to many. The tasting area is actually the kitchen of a rather nondescript old house. You will not see this winery on the Wine Trail as they do not market themselves to a large degree. They survive on the basis of very good, quality wines. Try a few, you will not be disappointed. Located on Hwy 8 between Grimsby and Beamsville. A hidden gem.
Peninsula Ridge - excellent facilities in a scenic setting. On the bench overlooking the vineyard with Lake Ontario in the distance. Upper end wines in a very nice tasting centre.
Special Tip - If looking for a very good meal at reasonable prices compared to most of the toney eating establishments in NOTL look no further than Stone Road Grill. This is a smallish restaurant outside of the NOTL town centre that is an absolute favourite of the locals. Reservations are a must. It may be difficult to spot as it is in a strip mall and the old, old sign says nothing more that "rest". We make a point of going here a couple of times a year. Try it, you'll like it. Guaranteed!
re: cynalan
Next time your at peller ask to see where the wine is made. They will have to take you over to hillebrand since it is all made there and not at their site. might not change your opinion on the winery but to me a winery should produce their product on sight to be a winery.
Personally, I've had some happy visits to the Tawse Winery. A chardonnay and pinot noir were something of a revelation for Ontario wines.
Oh, so much to say.
Here is my write-up of my trip to NOTL:
Here is my write-up of my trip to Vineland:
if you've not done too many wine tours before, i recommend do one of the "big" guys to get a feel for the whole process - vine to cellar to bottle, etc. either Hillebrand or Jackson Triggs, I'd choose Hillebrand, since tasting is included in the price.
definately do Stratus if you're in the NOTL end. the wines are PRICEY but worth it. Ditto 30 bench. The views, architecture, the whole "green" thing - really nice place and people.
for lunch, if it's summer you're looking at, do the Coach House Cafe at Henry of Pelham, or year-round the Zooma Zooma Cafe in Jordan. affordable and chow-worthy.
for small wineries, with GREAT wines and some good values, my faves are Marynissen in NOTL, Flat Rock in the Jordan area, and Malivoire and Fielding Estates in Beamsville. i've had really great personal experiences with the tasting staff at these places.
i've had stunning food at On the 20 with mediocre service, and one of my top five meals ever at vinelands estates restaurant.
i've stayed at Inn on the Twenty in Jordan, and a B&B called the Black Walnut Manor in vineland. i'd recommend either depending on your price range and whether you're looking for a boutique inn or a more homey experience.
sooo that's my two cents.
Here's a very lengthy thread from last summer that's still pretty current:
* http://www.chowhound.com/topics/432046
I would update my comments from August with the following:
* Hidden Bench: everything I've opened from my purchases last year there has indeed been great, including the reds (which had been sitting in the cellar up until recently). The 2005 Estate Pinot Noir is especially nice, really reminded me of a Volnay: delicate, floral, ripe and round cherry and strawberry flavours...
* The new 2005 Stratus wines are back on form (I liked the 2004 white, but wasn't a big fan of the 2004 red wines when I originally tasted them. For what it's worth, I did try the Stratus 2004 Red recently from a magnum at the winery at it had improved a lot from when I had tried it a couple of years ago). Charles Baker's 2006 Riesling is also very good.
* The new vintage of Thirty Bench's single vineyard and estate Rieslings are great, again (2006).
* Last week I tried some of the Tawse 2006 vintage wines, including the Estate Pinot Noir and the Echos Bistro Red and White wines. I was very, very pleasantly surprised with the quality of the wines, especially the Pinot Noir and the Echos Red (a primarily Cab Franc-based blend). For a really lousy year in Niagara (a cool, grey Summer, a wet, cold Fall), especially for red varietals, these wines were extremely well made. Pascal Marchand (a very well-known Burgundy winemaker who is now overseeing the winemaking at Tawse in a consulting role) is doing really good things here. The wines seem more in balance and more elegant than those made under Deb Paskus.
In fact, it's been really noticeable with the 2006 vintage how much many Niagara wineries have stepped up their game in recent years. In the past a year like 2006 would have been a complete disaster, but many wineries produced very good wines, despite the adverse growing season and rainy harvest.
* Malivoire's 2005 Pinot Noirs are very good as well, especially the 2005 Moira Vineyard.
* Le Clos Jordanne: these wines continue to be really, really impressive. The 2005 Chardonnays seem to have outshone the 2005 Pinot Noirs in the most recent vintage release, but all around, every wine they make is very good to great...
re: cybergod
On the way out I have always found Vineland Estates to be great hosts. My parents constantly serve their cab/merlots. And Tawse makes awesome wines.
In NOTL, the Speck brothers at Henry of Pelham are passionate.
Looking out from the Riverbend Inn across the vineyard is Peller. Tasting menu with wines is very good (and not too far a cab ride!).
Or of course their is the fudge store...
re: Cam D
LOL!! Thanks everyone for the great suggestions and detailed info, esp. Lemon Lauren, cynalon and cybergod. I will map out all of this and see what we can reasonably accomplish in 24 hours. We're staying at the Riverbend Inn and our plan is to have dinner there as well. I love On the Twenty but don't want to spend the entire day eating, so for lunch, it may be a quick bite somewhere.
We really need to be doing this more often so we are not cramming everything in. I hope to go to Tawse, really enjoyed the Echos Bistro White, Cave Springs for some Chardonny Musque, Le Clos Jordanne and we'll see what else. Oh and of course, FUDGE!! Thanks Cam D.
re: millygirl
FYI, Most of the places you've decided to go are miles away from Riverbend - and there are many, many great spots much much closer. You are going to spend all your day driving, wondering how much wine you can legally consume.
We've visited Niagara for business and recreation about 4 times in the last 6 months. We really love it there.
Our favourite winery, each and every time, is Riverview Cellars (http://www.riverviewcellars.com/). We find the staff friendly, knowledgeable, and their wines are well made. Last time I was there (about 2 weeks ago), I tried a newly released Chardonnay that was a blend of oaked and unoaked grapes. Loved it. Also try the Fontana Dolce, a really unique off-dry red.
We also enjoy Coyote's Run and Strewn.
My suggestion would be to stay away from the "big boys", Peller, Hillebrand, Inniskillen, etc. I find their staff to be less trained, and sometimes unenthusiastic about wine. Geez, if you're taking the trouble to go visit, at least they should recognize your effort to come see them!
Oh, I also second the suggestion for Stone Road Grille. It's in a non-descript plaza, but boy is that food amazing. Nice wine pairing suggestions too. Also, the Niagara Culinary Institute at Niagara College is outstanding - service, food and wine. You can find out more here: http://www.niagaracollege.ca/features...
Enjoy your trip!
re: accmplce
I third the recco for Stone Road Grill.
Not sure exactly what you're looking for, but...
When we're out there we tend to visit small wineries whose products aren't (and probably won't ever be) available in the LCBO. The last trip we we really impressed by the rieslings at Cattail Creek and the Gewurtz at the Organized Crime Winery, amongst others.
That said, these are pretty small operations with not a lot to see - mostly just a tasting room to stop, taste and buy.
In Niagara- Definitely Marynissen.
on the wine route (you could visit on your way to or from Niagara)
Definitely Malivoire.
Definitely Henry of Pelham (and it's a lovely place to have lunch).
and at the riverbend you're next door to peller, so you may as well go for dinner there as the food is quite good.
re: meld_la
my thoughts (Marynissen, Malivoire, HOP) exactly!

If you happen to be in New York, New York, in Las Vegas (that's confusing..!) then do go and have a look at the the jelly bean Statue of Liberty in the main entrance from MGM. Thousands of these sugary little beans have been (we assume glued) to create this huge replica. We saw something similar in New York (the city not the hotel/resort) at Henri Bendel over Christmas. But anyway, this is great fun and immediately tells you what the product is even if Miss. Liberty looks perhaps ever so slightly annoyed.

Final Four on the line [Elite 8 Open Thread]
3/30/13 in NCAABB | Dan_B | 1067 respect
Let's get to the games, though.
No. 3 Marquette vs. No. 4 Syracuse
East Region from Washington D.C.
4:30 p.m. ET, CBS
One thing is for sure, in its last season as a conference, the Big East is going to have a team in the Final Four. This wasn't the Big East's best season, but the conference as it stands now still has a chance to go out with a bang. It is somewhat surprising that either team is here, but who will advance?
The Orange is coming off of a surprising upset of No. 1 Indiana in which Syracuse stifled the Hoosiers with its vaunted 2-3 zone. Part of Syracuse's advantage in that game was that the Hoosiers hadn't seen the zone before. Marquette has. The Golden Eagles downed Syracuse 74-71 in Milwaukee about a month ago. That game doesn't mean much today, other than that Marquette is more familiar with the Jim Boeheim zone than Indiana was.
A friend said the other day that Marquette just looks like a classic tournament team -- lucking into a few wins early before hitting its stride. After all, on Thursday the Golden Eagles dominated a very good Miami team to get here.
My pick: Marquette (probably a jinx).
No. 2 Ohio State vs. No. 9 Wichita State
West Region from Los Angeles
7:05 p.m. ET, CBS
I will make zero "shocker" jokes, I promise. Wichita State is getting good use out of their dark, road uniforms this tournament, which is always good news for a low seed. Can their magical journey continue? I'll just say it: My heart says so, but my head says otherwise.
The big question for Ohio State is, who's turn is it to nail a game-winning three right before the horn. Two straight cold-blooded buzzer beaters have gotten the Buckeyes and Thad Matta to the brink of another Final Four. Unfortunately for Wichita State, I doubt this game comes down to the buzzer.
My pick: Ohio State (maybe a reverse jinx)

MARSHALL COUNTY, OK -- A teenager was flown to the hospital after sustaining a possible head injury during an accident on Lake Texoma.
The mishap happened around 7 p.m. on Friday. The high-school age boy fell down and hit his head while using some type of water craft, Sheriff Ed Kent said.
He was brought back to Buncombe Creek Resort Marina off Shay Road. A helicopter landed and took him to Parkland Hospital in Dallas to be evaluated for a possible concussion.

A travel advisory is out for those flying the friendly skies out of Charlottesville. The airport authority says people flying in the early morning need to start arriving at least 90 minutes before departure.
The issue is in the morning when five flights depart within a 45-minute window. Officials say anyone with a flight between 5:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. needs to plan ahead and allow extra time to process through parking, ticketing and the security checkpoint.
The advisory is in effect until further notice but is especially important over the Thanksgiving holiday.
The airport terminal opens at 3:30 in the morning and airline ticket counters will open by 4:15 a.m.

Hundreds of mourners overflowed St Mark's Church in Carterton yesterday to mark the first anniversary of the hot air balloon crash that claimed 11 lives.
St Mark's vicar the Rev Jenny Chalmers led the service, assisted by the Rev David Smart, during which mourners were invited to light a candle and speak the name of the person they were remembering or the memory that first came to mind of that fateful day a year earlier.
"This is a service of memory. Today we remember the balloon accident of a year ago, the 11 people who died in the accident, and their friends and loved ones - those for whom this has been a long hard year and at the same time, a short unthinkable year," Mrs Chalmers said.
Seated alongside the families and friends of the victims were firefighters and police officers called to the scene of the crash last year, and some witnesses and emergency services workers who toiled at the site in the wake of the tragedy.
Mrs Chalmers expressed heartfelt thanks for the work of the emergency personnel who tended to the family members and witnesses "and all those who cared for our loved ones as they lay on the ground after the accident".
A large speaker carried the words of the service to up to 50 mourners gathered outside among the trees at the front of the church. The families of victims were offered a candle tied with a sprig of rosemary to take with them as a keepsake of the anniversary.
Families and friends of the victims walked shoulder to shoulder from the church at the close of the service, some sobbing and helped along by others.
Gavin Bennett, who lost his mother Valerie Bennett and her cousin Denise Dellabarca, had travelled from his home in Illinois with his wife Nicky to be at the service.
"The most special thing about the service is that we are all here together. The United States sometimes seems a world away and it brings it back in a bittersweet way to know that we are not alone."
Carterton Mayor Ron Mark said during the service that the balloon journey had started as a magical experience for those on board, but ended in horror and tragedy, and had devastated 11 families - six of which had ties to the region and to Carterton.
"Rarely does a day go by that we do not think of you, the friends and families of the dead, the loved ones, and what happened that day," he said. "They are, were and will be forever part of us."
He shed a tear after the service during a round of media questions about the impact the crash had wrought during his first year as mayor, which is heightened whenever he passes the site of the crash on Somerset Rd.
"I always have feelings - we slow, we remember, we always will."
The Transport Accident Investigation Commission is to make public a final report midway through this year that will be released ahead of coroners' inquests into the deaths. Mr Mark said the families, the wider community and the ballooning fraternity must be patient regarding those outcomes.
"There will be some answers we predict and there may not be answers in some areas. Whatever, that report must be concluded, the finding must be public and we must learn from any mistakes that were made, because ballooning will go on."
Wairarapa police area commander Inspector Brent Register said the memorial service had been vital and that police were still involved with the family members of victims.
"It's amazing being in a small community. You bump into them in the supermarket, you bump into them at kids' sports events," he said.
"A lot of my staff are still focused on the families they looked after during the incident. It has been hard on all of us."

Boston, MA (SportsNetwork.com) - Boston Bruins defenseman Johnny Boychuk is expected to be sidelined for a few days after being diagnosed with a sprained back.
Boychuk was taken off the ice on a stretcher early in the first period of Thursday's game against Montreal and Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli gave an update on the blueliner's condition Saturday.
Chiarelli said Boychuk would be sidelined for at least three days and up to a week because of the injury.
Boychuk went into the left-corner boards on Thursday to chase down a puck and was pushed from behind by Montreal's Max Pacioretty. He hit the boards head first and collapsed to the ice.
As he was immobilized and placed on the stretcher, Boychuk never lost consciousness and was taken to Montreal General Hospital. He was able to fly home with the team later that night.
Pacioretty was issued a boarding minor on the play at 4:28.
Boychuk has averaged a little over 21 minutes of ice time per game this season, posting one goal and five assists in 27 contests.

13/10/2012 in Tax
Councils are to receive a £100m emergency fund to try to avert a crisis when new rules governing local authority funding are introduced next year. Some authorities have said changes to the way the Government distributes council tax receipts and local government grants means the working poor will be forced to pay council tax as money for exemptions dries up.
27/06/2012 in Tax
Around £2.3bn worth of council tax is currently going unpaid, data released by local authorities has shown. In Liverpool almost £107m is owed in council tax, while Birmingham has arrears worth more than £96m, and Manchester nearly £49m. Several London Boroughs are also owed upwards of £30m.
Eric Pickles has said David Cameron is doing a "fine job" as Prime Minister and is the "most successful leader" the Conservative Party has had since Margaret Thatcher.
However, he admitted the Coalition had gone through a "difficult time" in the last few days with the controversy over advice to motorists and the taxation of hot food such as pasties.
In a wide-ranging interview with the Daily Telegraph, the Communities Secretary also defended the controversial 'granny tax' on pensioners, insisting that most "won't be affected" and that "pensioners are in a much stronger position now than they have ever been".
24/09/2012 in British Business
Eric Pickles has urged residents to sue their local council if they block extensions in people's gardens. Local authorities have in some cases been resistant to the Coalition's plans to encourage house extensions as part of their construction stimulus package. Mr Pickles has intervened, saying he is "surprised" at this resistance, and that residents will be able to seek damages if their council does so.
25/04/2012 in Local Government
Eric Pickles says details of high wages at local authorities shows there is still room to crack down on "dodgy pay deals and boomerang bosses" at councils. The Communities Secretary was responding to research from the Taxpayers' Alliance which found that over 3,000 council staff were earning over £100,000 a year. Labour's Hilary Benn said the Conservative Party needed to "get their house in order" as the research showed nine out of ten of "top town hall earners" were employed by Tory councils.
09/03/2012 in Employment
Immigrants who are not taught to speak English "like a native" face life as members of an unemployable "sub-class", Eric Pickles has said.
In an exclusive interview with PoliticsHome's sister publication The House magazine, the Communities Secretary said the Government wanted people to speak adequate English, adding that there would be a £10m grant to help teach immigrants.
Labour have criticised Mr Pickles' language, with Hilary Benn saying he should be "thinking of practical ways to ensure that anyone settling in this country is able to speak English rather than talking about sub-classes".
