Big Fat Putter Grips – Do They Work?
Since we got the big screen hi-def TV, I watch a lot more pro tournaments. It's hard not to when the technology makes you feel like you're right there on the course. This year I've noticed more pros using 'larger than normal' grips on their putters.
Always looking for something new and eager to know what works and what doesn't, I had to try one out for myself. On Sunday I went to the local Golfers Warehouse and found a Winn Excel Giant Putter Grip.
I went there to find it just because I was in a rush to use it but you could look online at various places, you never know what people are giving away. Anyway I took it home and installed it on my old Ping Craz-E that I used until I got a new Rife Two-Bar last year.
Trying it out in the living room, I could immediately tell that it definitely stabilizes the wrists. It would take a lot of effort to bring them into the swing, something that can happen under pressure with a more normal size putter grip. By the way, I use a traditional overlap grip when I put.
I've tried a few belly putters, like the L2 Putter, and this regular length putter with the giant grip gave me the same feeling. Grip it and then rotate your shoulders. That's about all you have to do.
You can see right away that it's very easy to get the putter head to travel back and then through on the same path. If you're like me, you struggle to achieve this with your traditionally gripped putter.
One round does not prove anything, but, for what it's worth, I used the new setup on Monday for my entire round. My wife agrees that it's the best putting I've done all year. Will it last? I'll let you know as I'll continue to use it as long as it works.
I've noticed over the years that almost anything new you try in putting works for a short period, but very few hold up over the long term. Maybe it takes a little time with something before we over think it and figure out how easy it is to mess up. So far, I'm a believer in the 'Giant Pistol' grip.

Funny you wrote about these grips. At the end of last year, I fell in love with the fat grip. So this spring, I re-gripped several new putters I've been trying with the fat grips. In the last 2 weeks I went back to the traditional grip.
You make a good point. Maybe it works until we over think it and find a way to screw it up. I'm sure as soon as my putter goes south again, I'll throw a big grip back on.
The good part: It's a LOT cheaper to replace a grip than buy a new putter. Definitely worth a try.
Nice post,
I have seen a few golfers using the bigger grips. They seemed to putt quite well with them but I am yet to try it myself. As mentioned most often any new changes in putting only last a short while before reverting back to old habits. Certainly worth a try though.
No matter what size grip you use you have to keep light grip pressure. You can't control the putter swing consistently with the wrists and hands, you have to rock the shoulders and use the big muscles.
would like too try this grip on my old putter thanks,,
Kurt, let us know how it turns out. We love to get feedback on what works and what doesn't for other golfers!
Glad to see your blog with good details.

Ça fait un petit bout de temps que j'avais cette idée derrière la tête, recréer les personnages des séries TV que je matais quand j'étais gosse.
l'époque du club Dorothée parait bien loin aujourd'hui. Fini les mercredis matin en pyjama à tremper des dinosaurus dans son bol de lait.
Mais un peu de nostalgie ne fait pas de mal, et puis je peux toujours bouffer des dinosaurus!

Star Wars, comics, and Frank's dad3 Reviews
yea, the title says pretty much it all.
*Gerard's POV*
I was lying on my bed, reading an old Spider-man comic. I've read it so many times, but I still love it as much as the first time. My phone started to buzz, and I picked it up from my bed table. I slid it open and answered.
"Hello my favourite Gerard." Gemma said on the other side of the atlantic. "Hey my favourite Gemma." I said and smiled. "How are you?" she asked. "Very good actually." I said and my face exploded into a big grin. "Oh, and why is that?" Gemma asked, and I could hear her smirking. "Me and Frank are dating." I giggled. "FINALLY GEE! You guys will look so fucking adorable!" she screamed in her cute british accent. I giggled again and felt my cheeks go warm. "I just wanted to say hello, and hug Frank and tell him I said hello." she said. "I'll do that." I laughed. "Gotta go, talk to you later!" she said and hung up. I smiled and called Frank. "Hello?" he answered. "Hey, it's Gerard. You doing anything special?" I asked him. "Oh, hi! No, can I come over?" he asked, as if he read my mind. "Yep, I was just about to ask you." I laughed. "Okay, I'll be at yours in five." he giggled. "See you then." I said and hung up. I looked around in my room and realized it looked like a big fucking trash can. I picked the laundry from the floor and threw it in the laundry bag, and picked comics and art stuff from the floor. Now it didn't look like a trash can. A knock on the door made me flinch. Frank walked in and looked extremely cute and adorable. "Hello there." he said, and I just stood there and drowned in his brown eyes. "Hm.. Last time I met you I'm pretty sure you could talk." he said and sat down on my desk chair. "Oh, I can." I said and watched Frank look at my drawings. "Gerard, you should become an artist or something! This is fucking amazing!" he said and held up a drawing of a boy sitting on a swing, surrounded by vampires. I blushed. "I don't know.. It's not that good really." I sighed. "Bullshit." Frank said and hugged me. "Oh right, Gemma said hello and hugged you through the phone." I laughed and put my arms around his small waist. "Sweet of her. I'm now hugging her back." he giggled and hugged me tighter. "Frank, I can't breathe." I gasped and Frank let go of me. "Sorry.." he whispered and looked at his shoes. "Eh, nothing to be sorry about." I said and kissed his forehead. He giggled and sat down in the couch. "Can we like, watch a movie?" he asked. "Sure." I laughed and looked at my shelf of DVDs. "What do you want to watch then?" I asked him. "I dunno.. Something I guess." he said and pulled his knees up to his chin. "Hm.." I mumbled and looked through the movies. "Star Wars The Phantom Menace?" I asked and Frank nodded. I started the movie and sat down next to Frank. "Is there something wrong?" I asked when I heard him sigh. "No, it's just.. My dad didn't take it too well when I talked to him on the phone, and told him we're dating." he answered. "Oh.. What did he say?" I said and grabbed his hand. "Nothing, he just hung up." Frank sighed and leaned his head against my shoulder. "Ah, that sucked.." I said and hugged his shoulder. We sat in the couch, snuggled up to eachother, watching Star Wars. Things couldn't get better.
"Gerard?" mom said behind the door. Frank sat up, but I pulled him close to me again. "What?" I answered. Mom opened the door and looked at me and Frank. "What are you doing?" she asked. "Me and my boyfriend are watching Star Wars." I said. "Boyfriend? I didn't think you were gay. Why haven't you told me?" mom asked and sat down on my bed. "I don't know.." I sighed. "Well, I'm glad you've found someone Gerard." mom said and smiled before she walked out. "Close the door!" I yelled at her. "Oh right, sorry." she said and went back to close the door. "She took it pretty good, didn't she?" Frank asked and smiled at me. "Yeah, I guess she did." I said and smiled back at him.
*Frank's POV*
Gerard smiled at me, and I lost myself in his hazel eyes. He started to giggle. "What?" I asked. "You look high, Frankie." he said and stroke a loop of hair behind my ear. "I'm high on life, dude." I laughed. Gerard looked at me, and kissed the side of my mouth. "I'm tired." I said and layed down in the couch, resting my head on Gerard's thigh. Then I fell asleep.
I opened my eyes, and felt a pillow instead of Gerard's thigh under my head. I looked at my clock and realized it was already 8 pm. How long did I sleep?! I hurried downstairs and found Gerard and Mikey in the couch, watching tv. "Hey there sleeping beauty." Gerard said and winked at me. "Sorry I fell asleep.." I said and felt my cheeks go red. "It's cool, I didn't want to wake you up. And don't worry about your mom, I told her you were here." Gerard said and patted on the seat next to him. "Actually, I should go home.. I need to eat something." I said. "Oh.. Okay." he said, and I could see that he got sad. He followed me to the door and hugged me good bye. "See you tomorrow." I said and walked out in the cold night air. I started to feel bad about not staying at Gee's. But I had to talk to my dad, and I couldn't do that around Gerard.
I walked inside and my mom immediatly hugged me. "Your dad called. He said he was sorry for hanging up, and that he wanted to talk to you." she said and let go of me. "Ok, I'll go call him then." I said and walked down to my room. I dialed my dad's number and he answered after one beep. "I'm sorry Frank. I guess I got shocked, and-" he said and I cut him off. "Dad, it's okay. Atleast you didn't call me a stupid faggot or something like that.." I said and dad laughed a little. "I'd never do that.. Now, aren't you supposed to sleep?"
"Uhm, it's only like eight.. But I'm gonna go play some guitar." I said. "Oh right.. You're not a little boy anymore. Well, good bye." dad said and hung up. I threw my phone on the bed and picked my guitar from its place on the wall. My dear Pansy.. I sighed and played a few riffs, then I got bored so I decided to follow my dad's advice and go to sleep. But I couldn't sleep, I mean, I slept for a few hours at Gerard's so I wasn't very tired. Instead, I started to read a Captain America comic.
"Frank! Wake up, Gerard is here!" mom called, and I opened my eyes. I stood up and quickly dressed in a pair of skinnies and a Black Flag shirt. I ran upstairs, and saw Gerard sitting by the kitchen table with his back towards me. I slipped up behind him and covered his eyes with my hands. "Hey Frank. You know, there no one else here so I know it's you and I doubt your mom would do that." he laughed. I laughed and opened the fridge to see if there was something edible in there. I grabbed an apple (yes, we keep our fruit in the fridge) and sat down in the chair opposite to Gerard. "Frank, maybe you should clean your face a little." he giggled. "What, why?" I said and ran to the mirror in the hallway. My make up was smudged all over my face. I sighed and went back to my chair. "Yeah, I will." I said and stuck my toungue out. "But you look adorable with your make up like that too." Gerard said and smiled. "Awwh, but no." I said and took a big bite out of the red juicy apple. "You always get here so early, you know that?" I said to Gerard who laughed. "Sorry for wanting to see you then."
I laughed and kissed Gerard on his cheek before walking down to my room. I removed the make up with a make up removal pad, and put on some new red and black eyeliner. I put some hairspray in my mohawk and ran back upstairs. "Ready to go?" Gerard asked me. "Yeah, just wait a little." I said and tied my black scruffy worn out Converse. "Now I am." I said and Gerard opened the door. "Ladies first."
"Oh ha ha." I said and punched Gerard on his shoulder before I walked out. Damn, it was hot outside. And I wish I could remove these stupid bandages from my arms, but the doctor said I have to have them for at least another week. Gerard grabbed my hand, and I smiled at him. "Just a little question.. How long do you have to wear the uh.. bandages?" he asked me. "I just thought of that. A week or more, so the.. c-cuts can heal.." I said and Gerard hugged me. "I'm so so so sorry.." he said and sniffled. "Wait what, stop that! I was the one who was stupid, and I shouldn't have done it!" I yelled. "But you did it because of ME, just admit it!" he yelled back. "Stop it Gerard, we shouldn't start fighting!" I said and walked towards school. Gerard grabbed my shoulders, turned me round, and pressed his lips against mine. He cried, and I felt his tears against my cheeks. I placed a hand behind his neck and pulled him closer. Our lips moved as if they were made to be together. "Nasty faggots!" someone yelled. I pulled away from Gerard and looked around to see who it was. A man who was about twenty, maybe older, stood on the other side of the street and stared at us. "What did you say?!" I yelled at him. "Frank, stop it.." Gerard whispered and grabbed my arm. "I said, NASTY FAGGOTS! Go die, you're not worthy to live, you disgusting freaks!" the man screamed. I shoved Gerard's hand off my arm and walked towards the man. "Oh, what are you goin' to do? Punch me?" the man asked. Now I stood face to face (well, I had to bend my head back to be face to face but whatever) to him. "Yeah, kinda." I said and punched him over his nose. I heard it break, and the man screamed. I walked back to Gerard who looked terrified. "Let's go." I said and grabbed Gerard's hand.
This was more of a filler, but I hope you like it anyways! xo.

Senior F Pierce Hornung
Dec. 23, 2012
LAS VEGAS, Nev. – Colorado State senior forward Pierce Hornung recorded a double-double with a career-high 24 points, and a game-high 11 rebounds, leading the Rams past the Portland Pilots, 70-53, and into the championship game of the Continental Tire Las Vegas Classic at the Orleans Arena.
The Rams (9-2) out-rebounded the Pilots, 35-29, and never trailed despite shooting just 1-of-15 from three-point range.
"I think it was a great win," said Head Coach Larry Eustachy. "It only proves that when you don't shoot it well, you can still win."
Hornung, who led the Rams' defensive effort that held Portland to 27 percent shooting in the first half (39 percent overall), was half of a Rams' rebounding tandem – along with 10 boards from Daniel Bejarano – to help the team to a 35-29 advantage on the boards.
"We know when we play right, it takes team out of their game and that's what we're trying to do," said Hornung echoing Eustachy's postgame sentiments. "On a night when we struggled shooting, we still won handily."
Colorado State led from wire-to-wire against the Pilots (6-7) and extended the lead to double-digits on the heels of an 11-0 run late in the first half. The Rams nearly held the Pilots without a point over the final 5:53 of the stanza before Korey Thieleke halted the run with an off-balance three as time expired in the half.
Colorado State picked up right where they left off after the break, and the lead grew to 18, 44-26 on a pair of Bejarano free-throws at the 15:41 mark of the second half. Bejarano was key to the Rams' victory, also notching a double-double effort, the first of his career, with 10 points and a career-high 10 rebounds.
"We see it every day in practice," said Hornung of Bejarano's performance. "He hustles to every loose ball faster than all of us, and he gets up higher than all of us."
Portland battled to stay in the contest, and cut the Rams' lead to nine points, 57-48, on another off-balance, contested three-pointer, this time from Tanner Riley, with 5:48 remaining. The Rams responded by closing the game on a 13-5 run to come away with their third consecutive victory.
Senior guard Wes Eikmeier also tallied double-figures scoring for the Rams, pouring in 14 points, and adding three assists.
The Rams forced the Pilots into 13 turnovers, while committing just seven turnovers of their own, and outscored Portland, 12-5 off turnovers and 50-28 in the paint.
The Rams return to the court Sunday night, facing off against Virginia Tech (9-2) who advanced into the championship game thanks to an overtime victory, 66-65, over Bradley. Tipoff between the Rams and the Hokies is slated for 9:30 p.m. MT/8:30 p.m. PT and the game will be televised live on CBS Sports Network.

USS Springfield Sailor Rescues Driver from Burning Car
LEDYARD, Conn. (NNS) -- A Sailor from Los Angeles-class attack submarine USS Springfield (SSN 761) saved the life of a Ledyard citizen after pulling him from a burning vehicle, Jan. 18.Chief Culinary Specialist Daniel Spencer, a native of Saegertown, Penn., was at the right place at the right time while driving home from his duty station at Naval Submarine Base New London. Spencer witnessed a head-on motor vehicle collision. A car driving northbound on Route 12 swerved into the oncoming lane of a car driving southbound resulting in the head-on collision, and igniting one of the vehicles.Relying on skills learned from years of emergency training, he reacted instinctively."During my commute I witnessed an accident involving two cars in front of me," said Spencer. "I knew I had to react quickly. I safely pulled over on the side of the road and ran over to the closest vehicle to me and assisted the driver out of the vehicle. I escorted her to the curb then I ran over to the other vehicle, which was burning, to offer my assistance."However, the driver was unresponsive as Spencer tried to gain access to the occupant's car."He was unresponsive and the doors were locked," he said. "I tried to break the window with my elbow multiple times, but thankfully he responded to the banging and unlocked the door allowing me to escort him safely from the smoking vehicle." In a Jan. 29 letter to Spencer, Chief Anthony Saccone, Sr., Chief of the Gales Ferry Fire Company reflected on Spencer's bravery and selfless act to render aide."Despite the car being heavily damaged from the impact, you were able to get the door open and assist the injured driver to a safe location as the car began to burn more intensely," said Saccone. "On behalf of the Town of Ledyard and the Gales Ferry Fire Company, I would like to extend our sincere thanks for your selflessness and outstanding bravery," he wrote. "Your actions at a two-car motor vehicle accident; of which one of the vehicles was on fire, were highly commendable. Without the thought of danger you could be putting yourself in, you approached the first heavily damaged vehicle that still had an occupant inside." Saccone said that without Spencer's quick, decisive thinking, the occupant would have been in extremely grave danger, and the incident may have had a worse outcome. Saccone said Spencer reminded him of Tacitus, a great Italian writer who wrote 2000 years ago, "In valor there is hope. Valor is courage, bravery, fearlessness ... and gallantry. Daniel, these words describe your actions that day," said Saccone.

MEAD, Wash. -- A school psychologist in the Mead School District started a mission to inspire a special group of students.
They came together for the annual Developmental Olympics, where a US Olympic gold medalist made a surprise appearance Thursday.
Mead School District psychologist, Lindy Terry, has helped organize the Developmental Olympics for the past five years.
"So often we are in meetings with the families and the students that we saw out here today, and this is where we get to see their strengths and we get to see them shine and see all the things that they can do," said Terry.
These children hold a special place in gold medal winner, Dan O'Brien's heart. O'Brien won the gold medal in the decathlon at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.
He just happened to be in town and at the school promoting a new line of fitness equipment. He said he felt a strong desire to show his support for the children.
"It's really cool. I've been involved with the Special Olympics for quite a few years in Arizona, and Oregon and Idaho back in the past," O'Brien said. "And to see this going on and the community involvement, it was really fun."

Sculpture garden
A stroll through the 25-hectare large sculpture garden is a real discovery tour. A unique collection of sculptures by artists including Auguste Rodin, Henry Moore, Barbara Hepworth, Richard Serra and Jean Dubuffet can be found dotted around the garden, sometimes in unexpected places. Also adorning the garden are two pavilions by Aldo van Eyck and Gerrit Rietveld; architectural gems dating from the 1960s that were rebuilt and given a new home here. The sculpture garden is open all year round and exudes a different ambience with every season.
Click here for a map of the sculpture garden
Ticks can be found wherever there is ground-level vegetation in the Netherlands, so that includes De Hoge Veluwe National Park and the sculpture garden. A tick bite is usually harmless, but in some cases it can cause Lyme disease. Check yourself and others for tick bites after your 'nature excursion'. If you have been bitten, it is important to remove the tick without delay.
Information is available on the website of the RIVM.
A selection of acquisitions, on view in the sculpture garden:
Replacement Piece by Ger van ElkThe museum acquired an early work by this artist, which has a permanent place in the concrete path in front of the museum. It concerns Replacement Piece, the idea and first version of which date from 1969. The work consists of the removal of one square metre of ground and its replacement with a photograph of the removed section. In 1969 Van Elk replaced a piece of asphalt from the road in front of the Kunsthalle in Bern with a photograph on a hard sheet. He did this as part of the legendary exhibition Live in your head: When Attitudes become Form, organized by Harold Szeemann. The first work was soon lost due to the effects of weather and traffic. This second durable version from 2011 consists of the removal of one square metre from the concrete entry path to the Kröller-Müller Museum and its replacement with a digital reproduction. The photograph is mounted on a stainless steel frame and provided with an anti-slip coating. Van Elk's work is about image and imagination. With his artistic interventions he tries to stay as close as possible to reality, in order to make us aware of how we look at things. He calls his Replacement Piece a form of 'super-realism'.
Melancholia by ArmandoAs a painter, draftsman, sculptor, poet and author, Armando (1929) is now one of the most prominent Dutch post-war artists. His entire body of work is permeated with a historical sense of guilt. This has produced a wealth of themes and methods of execution, which the artist continues to work on today, partly in Amstelveen and partly in Potsdam. His work is very well represented in the collection, thanks to gifts and loans from his ex-wife and the artist himself and through the museum's own acquisitions.
In 2011, with the support of the BankGiro Lottery, the Kröller-Müller Museum has purchased a monumental bronze sculpture by Armando for its sculpture garden, namely Melancholia from 2006, which measures 207 x 155 x 70 cm. It is the second copy in an edition of three, and the second sculpture by Armando in the sculpture garden: the museum previously purchased Die schwarze Schale from 1989, which was given a permanent place in the Aldo van Eyck sculpture pavilion. As with Die schwarze Schale, Melancholia also stands on a tall pedestal in a neutral colour. Armando: 'I don't like short pedestals. I want a piece to stand as high as possible on its pedestal. People should look up to it.'

Heidi Klum is dangerous on the Web
Looking up the supermodel online could put you at risk of identity theft.
This post comes from Seth Fiegerman at partner site MainStreet.
Searching for Heidi Klum online could just be the kiss of death for your computer, one study shows.
The world-famous model and current host of "Project Runway" ranked as the riskiest celebrity to look up online, according to a new report from the Internet security company McAfee. The report found that nearly one in 10 results for Klum's name led to sites that could compromise your computer and personal information.
In particular, McAfee found that searching for phrases like "Heidi Klum photos," "Heidi Klum videos" or just the celebrity's name alone resulted in a more than 9% chance of visiting a site that could download viruses and malware to your computer or make you subject to phishing and spyware attempts. Post continues after video.
Spammers, it seems, took a new liking to Klum, as she jumped from being the 10th riskiest celebrity to search for in 2010 to the top of the list this year, pushing actress Cameron Diaz down to second place. (We're pretty confident that's one title Diaz is happy to give up.)
Others, like actress Mila Kunis and CNN host Piers Morgan, cracked the top-10 list for the first time, while actress Anna Paquin jumped three spots to No. 7 this year. Their new rankings might serve as an indication of these celebrities' rising popularity offline.
That said, McAfee points out that spammers don't always rely on the most buzzed-about A-listers to dupe consumers. Just take Charlie Sheen: Few celebrities earned more buzz this year (for better or worse), yet he came in at only No. 59 on the list.
Who would have thought that Heidi Klum would be more dangerous than Charlie Sheen?
More on MainStreet and MSN Money:
I think Michael Kors and Nina Garcia are much more interesting people.. When they speak about the designs they know what they are talking about, they have the credentials to back up their critiques.. Don't get me wrong, I like Klum, but, like the Kardashians, all she is is wrapped up in her looks.. I find most of these reality TV stars, men and women both, boring, inane, not very intelligent and pretty much stuck on themselves..

Ensuring High-Quality Kinship Care for Children in Wisconsin
While it is generally preferable to place children in foster care with relatives, it is vital that child welfare officials ensure the safety and well-being of these children so the trauma of being removed from their homes isn't compounded further by abuse or neglect.
The state of Wisconsin recently launched a new effort to license and train relatives following a legislative change in 2009 requiring relatives caring for foster youth to apply for a foster home license. Ensuring High-Quality Kinship Care for Children in Wisconsin (PDF), released in March 2011 by Children's Rights, evaluates the implementation of this new policy shift in Wisconsin, and offers specific recommendations that would help ensure that foster youth living with relatives are just as safe as those living with unrelated foster parents.
The report finds that while Wisconsin has taken important steps to improve the safety of foster youth living with relatives — and to bolster support for the family members willing to step up and care for them — the state must improve its data tracking system and other licensing policies and practices to ensure that the changes it has made are actually improving the lives of the children and families it serves.
The change in policy and state law was catalyzed in part by the 2009 death of 13-month-old Christopher Thomas in the home of an unlicensed relative — a notorious case that raised serious concerns that children placed in unlicensed foster homes with relatives were not receiving the same protections, support, and services as children in the care of licensed foster parents.
According to the report, DCF has started implementing this new relative licensing requirement, and taken steps to better safeguard children and support relatives. Thanks to these changes, foster children placed with licensed relatives in Wisconsin are more likely be protected; more likely to see their caseworkers regularly; and more likely to get the medical, mental health, and educational services they need.
However, the report notes a number of areas where the new system could be improved.
- If a relative refuses to be licensed, require a determination from the family court that the child in foster care can continue to safely live with that relative.
- Increase all payments to foster parents and licensed relatives to align with the actual costs of raising children.
- Require comprehensive training for all relative caregivers and develop and implement new training for caseworkers specifically focused on relatives caring for foster children.
- Take steps to further ensure that child welfare staff is accurately entering data in a timely manner.
- Enhance the state child welfare data system to ensure all information about relative caregivers is readily available and use that information to evaluate the implementation and performance of the new "levels of care" licensing system.
- Comprehensively review any and all disparities in practices between kinship and non-kinship foster care.
Children's Rights conducted this study in partnership with the Wisconsin Council on Children and Families, and with the collaboration of the state Department of Children and Families.
Children's Rights and the Wisconsin Council on Children and Families (WCCF) gratefully acknowledge a grant from an anonymous fund at the Greater Milwaukee Foundation, which generously supported our work on this project.

Bessa Valley Project started in 2001. The region around Ognianovo village was selected after lots of researches and special detailed analysis of the soil in French laboratories in Bordeaux. The name of the winery "Bessa Valley" means Valley of the Bessi (Thracian tribe that inhabited this land).
Terroir is a perfect combination of clay and sandy-stony soil, mixed with carbonates. The balance between precipitation and temperature levels, necessary to produce quality grapes, is very good. Vineyards are planted on the south hill (4-6 degrees), and between them run air passenger flows, contributing to good ventilation and the formation of aromas in the area.
The company has purchased 240 ha so far, 140 of which are planted with high-quality French varieties – Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Petit Verdot. The characteristic of the vineyard is also intensive plantings of 5000 of planting material with a distance between the lines 2x1 m, maximum and the foliage reaching up to 1.6 m. Truss is made up with acacia sticks. The maximum yield per ha is limited up to 600 kg of grapes. The company has bought modern machinery for cultivation and processing the vineyard – tractors, sprayers and agricultural equipment & accessories from the companies Lamborghini, Clemens and Projet.
In early 2005 the wine complex Bessa Valley Winery and Ognianovo Winery was completed. The winery is located at the foot of the hill above the vineyard, an area of 4,2 ha.
The facade of some of the buildings is lined with stones. Currently is produced only red wine. The complex consists of a cellar, two fermentation buildings, offices and administrative building.
The winery has two fermentation buildings with a total of 107 tanks, 105 of them have capacity of 10 tons and two of 50 tons. They are made of concrete, which provides better exchange, stability and balance of red wine.
The winery has an area of 3355 m² and is built on a rock that provides natural insulation and maintains a constant low temperature. The premise consists of three main sectors – wine cellar with barrels, bottling room and warehouse. The winery has a capacity of producing 1 million bottles of wine and processing 1000 tones of grapes in classical French technology. The wine matures in French oak barrels called barriques.

KANSAS CITY, MO. (AP) - Spencer Johnson made game-tying 3-point shots near the end of regulation and the first overtime period, then UMKC pulled away in the second overtime for an 85-77 victory over IUPUI on Thursday.

Alex Young had a career-high 32 points and 10 rebounds for IUPUI (11-10, 5-3), which had beaten UMKC seven straight times. Leroy Nobles added 19 points, and Christian Siakam had eight points and 12 rebounds.
Johnson's 3-pointer with 3.4 seconds left in regulation tied the game at 59-59. He hit another with 1:28 remaining in the first overtime to make it 67-67 - the final points of that period.
