This is just a dual core tablet but with the Intel processor, 2 cores is all you will need! The tablet is incredibly snappy, switching between apps like a champ. You would think that all of that processing power would come at a cost to battery life but that's not true. I had a ASUS tft300 that I bought when they first came out. Its a good little tablet but at performance level, it lags a lot. This samsung 10.1 screen of the Tab 3 is a much better form factor for reading magazines,incredible screen. I was also amazed at the incredible battery life that I got with the Tab 3 compared to the ASUS. With the asus I was charging the tablet every 2 days. With the Tab 3 I am able to go days if not a full week (depending on how I am using it). With the ASUS I was having a lot of issues with keeping it connected to my wireless N in the house. It would stutter a lot while trying to watch video on. I actually had to create a guest wireless account with it locked at wireless G speeds only for it to stay connected. With the Tab 3 I was able to connect to the wireless N without any issues. It even connects to the 5Ghz band without issues. I am able to stream HBO Go and shows from my Directv Genie system. I would highly recommend this tablet to anyone looking for a good android based 10.1 inch tablet.

This tablet is decent, but not perfect. It's easy to use, for sure. But I've discovered several bugs, or unintended "features," that would make me hesitate to purchase it again. First, the system will frequently update installed software (downloading updates and automatically installing those updates), and then run it automatically. Just today it updated the Chrome browser and restarted while I was in the middle of a task -- all WITHOUT ASKING me. I lost my work. Second, you cannot connect this via USB cable for simple file transfers. No, you have to download the buggy and slow Samsung Kies software, which is so "feature" rich that it becomes almost useless. The computer should be able to see the tablet as a simple USB mass storage device, but that apparently isn't what Samsung wants.

Think unit design is good but location of control buttons could be improved. some of the editing functions on photo's are difficult to find and implement. Gallery editing functions could be improved.

By jeeperz23
from L.I. N.Y.
Had my Tab3 for roughly 9 months and then it would no longer turn on or indicate charging. It just DIED... I now own a Tab4 for the past 2 months which is nice also, hoping it doesn't DIE as well. Although I like some of the features better on the Tab3 but not enough to be overly concerned about.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Good product for the money.

I purchased this to be more flexible. I haven't been real happy with it turning on & off by itself. I had to send it in & when it was returned I still had to call technical support. When it is working correctly, it's a great tool.
Love it
By mosho

My first tablet! Was a long time coming and I chose Samsung because I have a Samsung Galaxy S111 that I love. Was surprised there is no USB port, but that was my mistake for not checking stat thoroughly enough. Just assumed that was standard. Like a great big phone that doesn't make calls o=r texts, but is a fantastic addition to my home.

ICOP Digital Reports Record Revenue of $3.75 Million for 2007 Third Quarter
LENEXA, Kan., Nov. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- ICOP Digital, Inc. (Nasdaq: ICOP), an industry-leading company engaged in advancing digital surveillance solutions, today announced its financial results for the three and nine months ended September...
We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is an important measure of operating performance, leverage capacity, its ability to service its debt, and its ability to make capital expenditures for its stockholders. These calculations are commonly used as a basis for investors, analysts and credit rating agencies to evaluate and compare the operating performance and value of companies within the digital surveillance industry.
Management believes the use of this non-U.S. GAAP measure provides a useful basis for evaluating underlying business unit performance, but should not be considered in isolation and is not a substitute for evaluating business unit performance utilizing U.S. GAAP financial information. Management uses non-U.S. GAAP measures in its budgeting and forecasting processes and to further analyze its financial trends and "operational run-rate," as well as making financial comparisons to prior periods presented on a similar basis. The Company believes that providing such adjusted results allows investors and other users of ICOP's financial statements to better understand ICOP's recurring comparative operating performance for the periods presented.
ICOP's management uses non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA, in its own evaluation of the Company's performance, particularly when comparing performance to past periods. ICOP's non-U.S. GAAP measures may differ from similar measures by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. Although ICOP's management believes non-U.S. GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the performance of its business, ICOP acknowledges that items excluded from such measures may have a material impact on the Company's income from operations, pretax income, net income and earnings per share calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Therefore, management typically uses non-U.S. GAAP measures in conjunction with U.S. GAAP results. Investors and users of our financial information should also consider the above factors when evaluating ICOP's results.
The attached schedule provides a full reconciliation of this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable corresponding U.S. GAAP financial measure.
ICOP will host a teleconference today beginning at 4:15 PM Eastern, and invites all interested parties to join management in a discussion regarding the Company's third quarter financial results, corporate progression and other meaningful developments. The conference call can be accessed via telephone by dialing toll free 1-800-240-4186 or via the web at www.ICOP.com. For those unable to participate at that time, a replay of the webcast will be available for 90 days at www.ICOP.com.

random SystemUIServer hangage
After leaving my iBook (10.1.5) running all night, I occasionally notice the menubar clock has stopped and the SystemUIServer process is CPU-hungry. Running \"fs_usage\" on the PID is silent. A SIGKILL is required to kill the process and it doesn\'t restart. There\'s a general degradation of system performance after that, and eventually even Finder stops responding. At that point, a logout/login is the only option.

If you're fantasy team is going have one atrocious game at some point during the season, it's generally best that it does so in Week 1. Why? Because the days following the NFL's opening weekend are generally when some of the best fantasy football free agents are scooped up. During the first week of NFL action, we often find out that certain players will be a much bigger part of their teams' plans than we had anticipated. Here are some of the top players that are likely available in your league:
Note: This list includes only players who are owned in less than 50% of leagues (hence no Julius Thomas).
Sam Bradford (STL): Many people are considering this a make-or-break year for this former first overall pick, and Bradford has gotten off to a great start. He threw the ball 38 times in the Rams' new high-octane offense, completing 27 of his passes for an impressive 71.1% completion rate. He had 299 yards, two touchdowns, and only one interception - good for a 100.7 quarterback rating. The Cardinals have a strong pass defense, so it is very unlikely that Bradford's performance on Sunday was a fluke. He could be started in some leagues as a matchup play.
Terrelle Pryor (OAK): He may not possess throwing accuracy, pocket awareness, or ideal decision-making, but Pryor can flat out make plays. He kept the Raiders - who were expected to be trounced by the Colts on Sunday - in the game by repeatedly making plays and moving the offense down the field. He will probably continue to make some boneheaded mistakes, and might even throw up a dud as far as passing yardage from time to time, but his 112 rushing yards on Sunday were not a fluke. He's worth using as a bye-week or injury fill-in, and has some upside as a starter in much deeper leagues.
Running Backs
Knowshon Moreno (DEN): Despite all the speculation of Montee Ball being the 1B to Ronnie Hillman's 1A, it was Moreno who lead the charge out of Denver's backfield. He's certainly not the most effective runner of the three backs, but he is the most reliable, and quarterback Peyton Manning puts a ton of stock into how much he trusts his running back. Ball will probably end up taking the bulk of the work at some point this season, but until then, Moreno is a decent flex play and solid bye-week fill-in.
Pierre Thomas (NO): Mark Ingram and Darren Sproles seem like they would make a dynamic thunder and lightning combination, but that is simply not the case. Ingram just doesn't fit with what the Saints do on offense. Thomas has more quickness, elusiveness, and ability as a receiver, which will make him the man to complement Sproles in running situations. Thomas had 43 rushing yards with four catches for 16 yards in Week 1. He's likely to typically put up performances like that, but has plenty more upside in the Saints' uptempo attack.

Hip Hop Albums Of 2011: We Liked It, You Didn't
HipHopDX's Phillip Mlynar lines up some of the albums we rated as decent, while our users felt otherwise.
"Fuck a Rap critic - he talk about it while I live it," so vented Method Man back in '95, taking aim at journalists who wrote words in those old-fashioned paper Rap magazines. In these Internet days though, Mr. Mef's words could apply to anyone, as we're all sort of critics - whether flaming up the comments section or submitting user review scores. But while cuddly ol' Meth probably hates us all with an equal passion, it doesn't mean we always agree. Here's a run through of some albums from 2011 that the HipHopDX mind squad and you, our lovely readers, chose to disagree - where we felt they were okay, but you didn't have quite the same response.
Royce Da 5'9 - Success Is Certain
We're always gonna have love for real live raps and witty word play - just as a section of the peanut gallery is always going to enjoy hating on Slaughterhouse.

Lesson three: Two bona fide bangers, as with "Welcome To My Hood" and "I'm On One" here, can imbue an album with a lot of critical favor.

Torae – Heart Failure
Maybe we were wooed and got all sentimental with the album's circa-Valentine's Day release date, but you certainly hated on the Coney Island emcee's love movement.

Blame all those long-ass mixtapes and compilations getting us weary, but the original Slum Village man's EP was a persuasively potent blast of 14 minutes of Hip Hop.

Brahmi/Bacopa is an excellent rejuvenative for the mind and nervous system. It is one of two herbs commonly known as the legendary "Brahmi" of the ancient Ayurvedic texts (the other being Brahmi/Gotu Kola). In Vedic philosophy' Brahman is the name for the universal consciousness. Brahmi is a derivation of Brahman that literally means "energy of universal consciousness". A worthy name for an amazing herb that has been used for centuries to promote memory' intelligence and concentration. Bacopa supports the proper function of the brain and nerves' bringing balance to the nervous system while promoting clarity and awareness. It is also commonly used externally in a base of sesame oil as a special massage oil that calms and soothes the mind and nerves.

i heard about Organic Bacopa Herb Powder a lot while living in India how good it is for the brain but never tried it. I learned about Organic Bacopa Herb Powder more while casually studying ayurveda. I became extremely sick and became just about dead and I could not tolerate any medication for over 8 years. I went to bacopa somehow my intuition said it was what I needed. I could not have it straight stirred in water or milk as is most common. I would become too sick from my overwhelmingly defensive body. I made a oil from it with sesame oil as is described in ayurveda and applied this oil a few drops at a time to my scalp the soles of my feet and one or two drops around my eyes gradually increasing the amount. At first it made me crazy as all things do then I began to feel its cooling nurturing building effect. Over three months now life does not hurt as much all the time mostly my head (my brain my neck) does not hurt as it did all the time. Bacopa is supposed to help your brain cope with stress as well as disconnect from the adrenals so that it does not get over stimulated from adrenal activation. it is also supposed to calm the adrenals so that they can recover from stress. I dont know if this is how it truly works at a molecular level but I certainly feel I am coping with stress better than any stress medication and certainly it seems I am recovering from the effects of past stress. But I did have to go very slow and devise my own protocol after much time educating myself. I still cannot take the straight herb but I do feel I will be able to when there are more benefits to be had. As for intelligence and memory I am not there yet at all. Maybe it will. I made bacopa ghee (ayurvedic principles!) and give one teaspoon of it to my husband every evening. He is able to work longer without burning out and feels a sense of calm. He thought ayurveda is all mumbo jumbo voodoo but with his compliance I know he feels it is working. I can take 1/4 tsp now. Organic Bacopa Herb Powder really works. Stirred into warm milk it should work for most people people who need to cope and recover from stress as well as help with strengthening the brain. It is incredible that I could find Organic Bacopa Herb Powder so easily and at an affordable price.

Explosion on Jupiter Spotted by Amateur Astronomers George Hall
I am awaiting images of the impact scar, but if you have a large enough telescope and a clear sky, be careful not to mistake the barges which appear on the NEB as a possible impact scar. The impact scar should appear on the equator-ward edge of the NEB, which is also where the barges are. Barges are caused by upwellings from Jupiter's lower atmosphere, and can sometimes be dark enough to be mistaken for shadows cast by Jupiter's Galilean moons.
Framing a bright emission region this telescopic view looks out along the plane of our Milky Way Galaxy toward the nebula rich constellation Cygnus the Swan. Popularly called the Tulip Nebula the glowing cloud of interstellar gas and dust is also found in the 1959 catalog by astronomer Stewart Sharpless as Sh2-101. About 8,000 light-years distant the nebula is understandably not the only cosmic cloud to evoke the imagery of flowers. The complex and beautiful nebula is shown here in a composite image that maps emission from ionized sulfur, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms into red, green, and blue colors. Ultraviolet radiation from young, energetic O star HDE 227018 ionizes the atoms and powers the emission from the Tulip Nebula. HDE 227018 is the bright star very near the blue arc at image center.
This is a recent true color image taken by Nasa and the Japanese Space Agency showing Venus in transit around our sun.

Echoing the arc of the Milky Way (center), a meteor—or possibly a satellite reflecting the sun's rays—streaks earthward near Cagnes-sur-mer in southeastern France in a picture submitted May 17 by National Geographic Your Shot user Jerome Cassou.
Meteors are mostly sand grain-size particles that enter Earth's atmosphere at high speed, burning up and superheating the air around them, which creates the characteristic short-lived streaks of light.

Outfitted in a homemade spacesuit, "Camilla" the rubber chicken rides into the stratosphere on March 3 as part of an experiment to measure solar radiation at point-blank range.
Students with Bishop Union High School in California launched the chicken—the mascot of NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory—before and during a solar storm. For both flights Camilla wore a pair of radiation badges of the same kind used by medical technicians and nuclear workers to assess dosages.
The results will help the students design a future astrobiology project to test whether certain species of microbes can survive the harsh conditions at the edge of space.

Venus to Appear in Once-In-A-Lifetime Event |
On 5 and 6 June this year, millions of people around the world will be able to see Venus pass across the face of the Sun in what will be a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
It will take Venus about six hours to complete its transit, appearing as a small black dot on the Sun's surface, in an event that will not happen again until 2117.
In this month's Physics World, Jay M Pasachoff, an astronomer at Williams College, Massachusetts, explores the science behind Venus's transit and gives an account of its fascinating history.
Transits of Venus occur only on the very rare occasions when Venus and Earth are in a line with the Sun. At other times Venus passes below or above the Sun because the two orbits are at a slight angle to each other. Transits occur in pairs separated by eight years, with the gap between pairs of transits alternating between 105.5 and 121.5 years — the last transit was in 2004.
Building on the original theories of Nicolaus Copernicus from 1543, scientists were able to predict and record the transits of both Mercury and Venus in the centuries that followed.
Johannes Kepler successfully predicted that both planets would transit the Sun in 1631, part of which was verified with Mercury's transit of that year. But the first transit of Venus to actually be viewed was in 1639 — an event that had been predicted by the English astronomer Jeremiah Horrocks. He observed the transit in the village of Much Hoole in Lancashire — the only other person to see it being his correspondent, William Crabtree, in Manchester. continue reading

Shia LaBeouf Lawsuit? 'Howard Cantour' Plagiarism Forces Artist Daniel Clowes To 'Explore Legal Options' (VIDEO)
Shia LaBeouf's half-apology for his recent plagiarism scandal with his new short film HowardCantour.com may not be sufficient. The actor confirmed the film copied the plot and dialogue from a comic written by Daniel Clowes and now the artist is looking at taking LaBeouf to court. Clowes' publisher, Fantographics' Eric Reynolds, confirmed the artist "is exploring his legal options" and will file a plagiarism lawsuit if possible.
"LaBeouf changed the name of the main character, but he used the comic as a direct script and storyboard. LaBeouf just used the dialogue word for word. There is no ambiguity," said Reynolds. "It just defies any kind of logic or good sense. This was so blatant and inexcusable that it was as baffling as it was appalling."
The actor admitted to stealing and apologized via Twitter for plagiarizing Clowes' work, but it seems even his olive branch was plagiarized by a response on Yahoo! Answers four years ago. The actor tweeted two days ago that "copying isn't particularly creative work. Being inspired by someone else's idea to produce something new and different IS creative work." A Yahoo! Answers response in 2009 by "Lili" on the subject of plagiarism read: "Merely copying isn't particularly creative work, though it's useful as training and practice. "Being inspired by someone else's idea to produce something new and different IS creative work, and it may even revolutionalize the 'stolen' concept."
In later tweets (which don't seem to have been plagiarized), LaBeouf admitted to not contacting Clowes and admitted that he "f---ed up" for plagiarizing the comic. However, he said he was inspired by Clowes' work rather than simply copying it.
"In my excitement and naivete as an amateur filmmaker, I got lost in the creative process and neglected to follow proper accreditation," he wrote. "I'm embarrassed that I failed to credit @danielclowes for his original graphic novella Justin M. Damiano, which served as my inspiration. I apologize to all who assumed I wrote it. I deeply regret the manner in which these events have unfolded and want @danielclowes to know that I have a great respect for his work."
However, it's possible that LaBeouf may now be trolling people when it comes to his apologies. He ripped off apology quotes from Tiger Woods and Kanye West, among others, when speaking about the incident yesterday via Twitter. "I have let my family own and I regret those transgressions with all of my heart," tweeted LaBeouf, which is the exact same sentence Woods used for his apology regarding his infidelity. "I was wrong, terribly wrong. I owe it to future generations to explain why. It starts with this … I'm sorry." The last sentence was used verbatim by West when apologizing to Taylor Swift for crashing her speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.

Minimize or avoid nightshade vegetables. Some of the most common vegetables served in restaurants are the nightshades: potato, tomato, eggplant, bell peppers, and onions. They are rajas, contributing to overactivity of the mind. This change alone can make a signifcant difference in how you feel. Restaurants servce them because they are cheap, last a long time, are easy to store, and strong tasting - not because they are the healthiest for you.
If you have joint or digestive problems, eliminate the nightshade vegetables and see if it helps reduce or eliminate the problem. In the Yoga tradition, consuming nightshades is discouraged as they reduce vitality and cloud the mind. People often ask if this includes sweet potatoes; it does not. Most people do well with sweet potatoes: they digest easily and are quite nutritious."

Esquire Theme by Matthew Buchanan
Social icons by Tim van Damme
When I was a freshman, my sister was in eighth grade. There was a boy in two of her periods who would ask her out every single day. (Third and seventh period, if I remember correctly.) All day during third and seventh she would repeatedly tell him no. She didn't beat around the bush, she didn't lie and say she was taken—she just said no.
One day, in third period, after being rejected several times, he said; "I have a gun in my locker. If you don't say yes, I am going to shoot you in seventh."

Sealed with a kiss
This discovery about a secret Viking message is special - and will put a big smile on your face. For years researchers have tried to crack a Viking rune alphabet known as Jötunvillur. It is found in some 80 inscriptions, including the one above, which dates from the 11th or 12th century. Recently the news broke that a runologist in Norway was successful. It turns out that you had to replace the rune character with the last letter of the sound it produced. So the rune for "f", which was pronounced like "fe", represented an "e". And so researchers were able to decode the 900-year-old message on the piece of wood above, which turned out to be - wait for it… - "Kiss me"! It gets better, however. It turns out that coding and decoding such messages was a playful game, a leisure activity. This is clear from the fact that some of the inscriptions invite the reader to solve the code, stating for example "Interpret these runes." This, of course, makes the discovery of the "Kiss me" message even more sensational. The kiss was no doubt the reward for the successful individual who cracked this particular message. Two Viking lovers entertaining themselves with a playful coding game - that came with a delightful climax. Awesome.
More information: this Norwegian article originally reported the story, which is also the source of the image (made by Jonas Nordby, the researcher who cracked the code). I picked up the story from the invaluable Medievalists blog (here).

A Single Thread Wrapped Around Thousands of Nails by Kumi Yamashita
Kumi Yamashita , whose mind-blowing shadow artworks have been featured before, uses a single, unbroken thread wrapped around thousands of nails to create stunning portraits of women and men.
In the ongoing series entitled Constellation (a nod to the Greek tradition of tracing mythical figures in the sky), the Japanese artist (living and working in New York) uses three simple materials to produce these otherworldly works of art.

Oyster Wines as the Sky Turns Gray
Last night in the Pacific Northwest, it rained like the dickens. The skies are now the color of oyster shells and the very oysters themselves. As the weather and water cool down, Northwest oysters firm up and deliver the best flavor of any oysters found around the world. As a parting salute to oysters and the wines that love them, here is another selection of superb oyster and mussel wines for your consideration.
Three Rivers
This wine was fermented and aged in stainless steel to preserve the crisp minerality and the clean varietal fruit characteristics. Grapes came from three respected Washington vineyards: Bacchus, Sagemoor and Weinbau. This could be the hallmark Chardonnay oyster wine showing aromas and flavors of green apple, spicy pear and citrus with hints of vanilla and wet stone on the finish.
Left Coast Cellars
Here is another stainless steel-fermented Chardonnay, crafted to show the bright fruit of the Chardonnay varietal with a supple palate and light structure. Left Coast Cellars is a nice visit for wine lovers visiting the Eola Hills/Salem area with attractive gardens and other amenities. Look for aromas and flavors of apple and pear with notes of baking spices and earthy mineral.
Nicole Cellars
Winemakers Jarrod Boyle and Matt Dodson craft this Chardonnay from grapes grown at the winery's Destiny Ridge Vineyard in the Horse Heaven Hills AVA. The wine underwent partial malolactic fermentation and was aged sur lie in French oak, 25% new. Aromas of Asian pear, white peach and floral-apple mingle with baking spice and creamy yeast notes. The palate is rich with stone fruit and apple flavors wrapped in vanilla and light toast with a stab of lemon zest on the finish.
Winemaker Aryn Morell crafted his Tenor Chardonnay from grapes grown on
the fractured basalt soil of Stillwater Creek Vineyard on the Royal
Slope in Washington's Columbia Valley AVA. Lots of new French oak was
used in aging, but the wine shows distinctive lemon curd, spice and
mineral up front with barrel components of buttery brioche and toasty
cedar framing the palate instead of
Seven of Hearts
Byron Dooley sourced Chardonnay from Oregon's Gran Moraine and Willakia Vineyards for his 2012 vintage, and this wine is a blend of Dijon clones from those sites in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA and Eola-Amity Hills AVA respectively. Fermentation was 50/50 in neutral French oak and stainless steel, yielding a complex wine with lemon curd and green apple aromas and flavors and a crisp citrus finish that pairs very well with oysters and mussels.
Bridgeview Vineyard
Bob and Lelo Kerivan opened Bridgeview Winery in 1986 in Oregon's Illinois Valley [the westernmost area of the Rogue Valley AVA], and they now craft over 100,000 cases annually of popularly priced varietal wines. This soft and approachable Chardonnay is a perfect sipper and also goes very well with lighter dishes and seafoods. Look for aromas and flavors of pear and apple with hints of spice and lemon.
Amelia Wynn
Winemaker/owner Paul Bianchi has been crafting wines at his Bainbridge Island winery since 1998. Named in celebration of Paul's twin fraternal grandchildren, the winery crafts wines from a wide variety of Bordeaux, Rhone and Northern Italian grape varietals. His 2012 Chardonnay from the Airfield Estates Vineyard was fermented partially in stainless and partially in French oak. Hints of oak and vanilla wrap around flavors of melon, stone fruits and soft, spicy lemon.
Pinot Gris/Pinot Blanc
Canoe Ridge Vineyard Expedition
The Canoe Ridge Vineyard was planted in the Horse Heaven Hills in 1989 with the winery being established in Walla Walla in 1994. The winery specializes in Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay. This tasty Pinot Gris lies outside of those boundaries, but expands the winery's appeal to oyster-loving foodies who revel in the wine's aromas and flavors of green apple and pear with notes of floral perfume, crisp grapefruit and apricot.
Adelsheim Vineyard
David Adelsheim led a program to import the first true Pinot Blanc clones to Oregon direct from Alsace in 1975, and Adelsheim Vineyard released its first Pinot Blanc in 1989. This 2013 Pinot Blanc offers ripe aromas of tropical fruits and white peach with notes of floral perfume and flinty mineral. The palate is more bold than Pinot Gris with textures and flavors that pair well with steamed mussels.
Sauvignon Blanc/Semillon
Winemaker J. Somers (Cristo) created this blend of Sauvignon Blanc,
Pinot Gris and Riesling "to win the affection of his wife Ronda." It is
a tasty wine with aromas of creamy mineral, citrus and floral perfume
leading to flavors of crisp lemon-lime citrus, stone fruits and
mineral. It is great with oysters and mussels and other light fare.
This blend of Semillon (85%) with Sauvignon Blanc (13%) and Moscadelle du Bordelais (2%) was crafted from grapes grown mostly in the Horse Heaven Hills along the Washington side of the Columbia River. The wine was barrel fermented and aged sur lie in French oak for three months. This excellent wine for mussels offers aromas and flavors of a citrus mélange, mineral, honeysuckle and notes of vanilla and hazelnut on the finish.
Davenport Cellars
Grapes grown at Bacchus and Dionysus Vineyards in the Columbia Valley were used in this blend of 67% Sauvignon Blanc and 33% Semillon. Winemaker Jeff and Sheila Jirka fermented the wine in stainless steel, retaining fresh fruit aromas and flavors that complement Northwest shellfish. Look for aromas and flavors of stone fruits, creamy lemon, orchard blossom and hints of fig and mineral.
Grgich Hills Estate
The strength and power of Mike Grgich's Fume Blanc is exceeded only by the balance and structure that his winemakers create in every vintage. It seems that the only change each year is that the wine becomes just a little more lean, emphasizing mineral and sur lie character over a base of citrus and tart stone fruits. If there is any drawback, it might be that the wine is so delicious and flavorful that it distracts one's attention from the oyster!
Chateau St. Jean
Chateau St. Jean is one of the few wineries that continues to produce two vineyard-designated Fume Blancs as well as a blended version from Sonoma County. La Petite Etoile Vineyard is in the Russian River Valley AVA and has been owned by the winery since 1988. This is another classy Fume with impeccable structure and balanced mouth feel show crisp flavors of lemongrass, earthy mineral, grapefruit and dried herbs – very nice with oysters or mussels.
Pedroncelli Winery
Pedroncelli is one of California's oldest continuously family-owned wineries, having begun vineyard ownership in the Dry Creek Valley in 1927. After prohibition, the winery side began to grow and a second generation took on leadership in the 1940s and 1950s. I discovered the wine in Seattle in the 1970s and have been a big fan ever since. Pedroncelli Sauvignon Blanc from their East Side Vineyard is a great pairing with oysters or other light foods offering grapefruit, melon, grassy herbs and mineral on both nose and palate.
Joseph Phelps Vineyards
While Joseph Phelps Vineyards has become known mainly for its red wines – most notably Insignia Cabernet Sauvignon – the winery produces superb white wines as well. Dedication to quality spans the entire production including their flavorful Sauvignon Blanc, which hails from the estate Spring Valley Home Ranch in St. Helena. I would recommend this vintage to accompany delectable steamed mussels as the notes of toasty oak, vanilla and spice overwhelm half shell oysters. Flavors of tropical fruit, lime zest, white peach and melon complete the perfectly structured palate.
If some of my tasters had their way, every Sauvignon Blanc would be from New Zealand and show the same zesty character as Matua's offering (as well as others). The unmistakable aromas of gooseberry, passionfruit and citrus lead to the crisp lemony palate and distinctive Marlborough acidity. Competition has driven the price down on all NZ Sauvignon Blancs – a good reason to pick some up along with fresh oysters for your weekend shellfish feast.
Villa Maria Estate
Grapes were harvested from both the Awatere and Wairau Valleys in Marlborough to craft this reserve-style Sauvignon Blanc. A portion of the parcels received skin contact to enhance the intensity of flavor, and sur lie aging for several months added additional complexity. Aromas of passionfruit and melon lead to a complex palate with grapefruit and flinty mineral added to the mix.
Kingston Family Vineyard
Kingston Family Vineyards is a boutique winery located on a farm that has been in the Kingston family for a century in Casablanca, Chile. Their Cariblanco Sauvignon Blanc shows the changes made in the vineyard to achieve ripe flavors at lower sugar (and alcohol) levels. Look for aromas and flavors of ripe citrus, honeysuckle, green bean, herbs and grapefruit – a delicious pairing with oysters and mussels.

It took too much time and caused too much damage, but Israel cannot blame anyone for this – this was "earned" with long years of negligence and ignorance.
Late last week the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) restored the category one safety standard for Israel after four years.
In January 2009 the FAA downgraded Israel's safety category to two.
This came after a series of checks revealed that the Israeli Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) failed in complying with a list of errors found earlier.
The highest category was restored in spite of the fact that some processes – mainly in writing regulations that apply to the different chapters of new aviation law – have not been completed.
The CAA was also under heavy pressure from EL AL, which could not sign code share agreements with US airlines while Israel was in category two.
The CAA has announced that a special effort will now be made to complete the regulations according to the FAA's standards.
Before the downgrade the CAA was warned again and again, but the officials were slow to react. Nothing turned on the red light – not even the fact that the Israeli aviation law was from 1927.
So it took four years, and now there will be an effort to fix the damage – suffered mainly by EL AL, which was paralyzed in everything that had to do with cooperation with US airlines.
Category one restored after four years
It took too much time and caused too much damage, but Israel cannot blame anyone for this – this was "earned" with long years of negligence and ignorance.

The Advanced 7-Minute Workout
October 24, 2014,
Once cancer has invaded and set the new pace for your life, you'd be hard pressed to try and change it.
Some post-op tips for anyone who has just had a prostatectomy and for those of you about to have one.
Having prostate cancer makes you feel like you've been reduced to an abstraction, merely a wrinkle in the business of repairing prostates.
A new study suggests that laparoscopic surgery for prostate cancer can be better in the short term than the open procedure, but increases the chance for longer term problems.
MEN, the joke goes, spend the first half of their lives making money and the second making water. That is because after age 50 many men face an embarrassing problem called B.P.H., for benign prostatic hyperplasia. This slowly progressive enlargement of the prostate can make urination difficult or...
Doctors are now urging early action and revised treatment for men with B.P.H.
Talking points for patients and physicians.
Tips to help patients manage their care.
A diagnosis of prostate cancer is scary enough. But just as scary is that nobody can tell a man the best way to treat it.
One of the biggest fears for men undergoing prostate surgery is impotence, but research doesn't do much to clarify risk.

How to write a recipe Oct 22 2014
Christine Muhlke talks to several different chefs and writers about how they approach writing recipes.
The goal should be that the reader can make the recipe his or her own -- that the instructions are clear and good enough that after a few tries, he or she can improvise to please themselves. The chef gives ideas so that the cook can profit. It's not dictation; it's inspiration.

The Houston Texans put together another preseason win last night in St. Louis. Both the offensive and defensive sides of the ball seemed to be pulling together as expected, culminating in a 27-20 victory over the Rams.
Texans running back Vernand Morency was given an opportunity to show what he can bring to the Texans, and he proceeded to do so without hesitation. It was also a good night for defensive ends as Antwan Peek brought down St. Louis' quarterback twice, and Mario Williams began to show why he was the number one draft pick.
The Texans tried to stir things up early in the game, and were doing well utilizing TEs Bennie Joppru and Jeb Putzier until a holding call on rookie RB Wali Lundy seemed to kill the team's momentum. The Texans offensive line allowed their first and only sack of the preseason on a third down attempt. To add to fans frustration, Texans kicker Kris Brown was called out on the field for the next play only to miss a 37 yard field goal wide left.
Neither the Texans nor the Rams could put anything serious together offensively. The quarter ended with a 32 yard field goal from Rams kicker Remy Hamilton, giving the Rams the lead in the first quarter 3-0.
During the second quarter the Texans brought in running back Vernand Morency to the game. Morency took the ball on a 12 yard rush his first play, and only 6 plays later he pushed the ball the final 4 yards into the endzone. After a succesful PAT, the Texans had the lead 7-3.
The Rams and Texans went back and forth for several series, until CB Dexter McCleon blocked a 51 yard field goal attempt late in the second quarter. This gave the Texans another opportunity to score and widen the lead before the first half was up.
During the following offensive series for the Texans, Morency had a 9 yard reception from Texans starting QB David Carr and a 9 yard rush that put the Texans within field goal range with just seconds to spare in the half. Kris Brown was able to kick a 48 yard field goal through the uprights to finish the first half with the Texans in the lead, 10-3.
The Rams had the ball at the beginning of the second half, but it didn't start well for St. Louis. On the first play of the initial drive Texans DE Antwan Peek got through the Rams offensive line and brought down Rams RB Moe Williams, causing a fumble that was recovered by CB Phillip Buchanon.
The Texans tried to push the ball 10 yards closer to another 7 points, but were held short by the Rams defense. Again, Kris Brown was called upon to kick the 27 yard field goal and the Texans went up even further 13-3. The Rams offense answered back quickly, taking the ball 71 yards in 7 plays for a touchdown on the next series.
The Rams first touchdown in the game must have sparked something in the Texans offense too, because the longest rush in the game came in the next series from Texans RB Morency, as he found his way up the middle 45 yards for a touchdown, knocking the wind from St. Louis' sails and putting the Texans back up by a ten point margin, 20-10.
The Rams offense was now being driven by former Texans reserve QB Dave Rangone. Rangone threw 9/11 against his former team's defense, but during his first outing on the field he was sacked hard by Texans DE Earl Cochran. St. Louis does manage to finally get the ball across the goal line with a 4 yard rush from RB Fred Russell. The third quarter ended with the Rams trailing behind the Texans 20-17.
As the Texans continued their drive that began just before the end of the third quarter, QB Sage Rosenfels connected with rookie WR Derrick Lewis for a 44 yard touchdown reception. Lewis ended the night with 3 receptions for a total of 63 yards and the Texans only passing TD.
The final score of the game occurred midway through the fourth quarter as Rams kicker Hamilton put St. Louis final three points on the board with a 33 yard field goal. The game ended with the Texans on top of the Rams by a score of 27-20.

The Pittsburgh Penguins have reportedly placed forwards Chris Conner and Andrew Ebbett on waivers, according to head coach Dan Bylsma – according to the team's Twitter handle.
Conner was signed to a one-year contract and Ebbett was inked to a two-year deal this summer.
Conner, 29, spent last season with the Phoenix Coyotes, but played the majority of the year in the AHL with their affiliate, the Portland Pirates.
In 12 regular-season contests for Phoenix, Conner registered two points (1G, 1A) and skated to a plus-3 rating. While with Portland, he recorded 40 points (13G, 27A) and skated to a minus-9 rating in 60 games.
Ebbett, 30, spent last season with the Vancouver Canucks and their affiliate in the AHL, the Chicago Wolves. In 28 games with Vancouver, Ebbett recorded six points (1G, 5A) and skated to a minus-1 rating. Performing in 37 contests for the Wolves, he scored 32 points (11G, 21A) and skated to a sufficient plus-10 rating.
Pittsburgh is now down to 27 skaters and must meet the roster limit by Monday; however, due to Matt D'Agostini and Kris Letang's injuries, they could complicate the situation..
Expect more moves to be announced later Sunday night.

Xavi here. I just wanted to let everyone know that from January 2nd to an undefined date, I will be on FULL HIATUS. I'm moving to oregon and i don't know when I'll have internet connection again or how good it'll be considering i live in my own little guest house farther from it than the rest of the family. I'll try to make update posts on my mainblog, spaceshipfuse / nightmaresyndrome.co.vu .
Feel free to follow for updates.
I'll be on the blogs until then probably, But I just wanted to put a full hiatus notice so people don't think i'm inactive.
Hello friends! I haven't been as vocal about it on my RP blogs, but i'm going to be moving in at most three weeks. I don't have an exact day that i'm leaving, HOWEVER I do want to say that from now until the moment I leave this house for good I will be on a Semi-Hiatus. When I leave the house and start moving I won't be on anything but my main if I can get wi-fi on my kindle, if not I will be on a serious full-fledged hiatus from all of my accounts I have on tumblr.
And it will remain that way until I manage to get Wi-Fi and such up in my house in Oregon.
So expect a large delay in replies, for I kind of have the problem of me having to get used to the new place as well as getting Wi-Fi and a bunch of other things.
Thanks for your time!
"Oh, well…"
Seija didn't even know the spirit, or at least not well enough to figure out why she would kill her or try to, but the hatred that radiated from the action was so unusually refreshing.
One could say that's not how to slay an amanojaku though- despite the fact that there was now a knife in her chest, it still wasn't enough to end her life completely. Sure, there was the fact that bloodloss would be an issue if anything, but for now that wasn't the problem.
"Goodness gracious, are you angry about something to go out and stab me like this? You do know this probably won't kill me- as a matter of a fact, go ahead and keep stabbing me you disgusting spirit, I enjoy your attempts and hatred!"
The spirit looked down upon the blood stained blade now no longer welcoming itself into the amanojaku's stomach. With great focus, Tojiko made sure to watch each droplet of blood drop down upon the ground for a long, and hard time before looking up once more to Seija, and then muttered this.
"Perhaps my ability will make a fuller effect."
"Perhaps! Why don't you try it and find out~?" The amanojaku chimed, almost as if trying to lure the other into attempting to kill her completely. It was a bit of a drastic thing, but considering she was fed up with this world that she was 'ruler' of, she has a right to.
She wasn't happy with it very much anymore.
Too many others were happy, but this. Attempts to kill her made her happy. So happy…
"C'mon! Give it all you've got, spirit!"
Shou frowned. She wasn't liking the surly attitude of this one. Nonetheless, she decided to remain polite and peaceful… unless she were provoked, there was no reason to fight.
"Erm. Forgive me for trespassing. I am Toramaru Shou. And I seem to have fallen here by mistake… if you could, I would appreciate any guidance as to how I may return to my proper world."
With that, the tiger youkai looked around her surroundings… what is this place?
"Well, your mistake could have easily lead you to an early grave!" Seija sneered, continuing to stare at the other. She didn't like how calm they were, maybe if she pissed them off they'd hate her.
"I have no clue how to get back to the safe version of this world. Why don't you try going through one of the broken parts of the boundary~?"
- - - -
"Wonderful. More people are here." The Amanojaku sighed before trying to figure out a good way to introduce herself to the group. In this crumbling world, she was seen as the leader- a god- but these few didn't look like they were completely from this verse.
She wasn't aiming for a polite greeting either.
"Well then, are you just going to stand there, you fools! I'm Kijin Seija, ruler of this horrid trash heap you can call a world. You don't look like your from this version, however, so I suggest you go back to where you came from or suffer here for an eternity, whatever floats your sinking ship, you filthy little shits."
"Oh, well…"
Seija didn't even know the spirit, or at least not well enough to figure out why she would kill her or try to, but the hatred that radiated from the action was so unusually refreshing.
One could say that's not how to slay an amanojaku though- despite the fact that there was now a knife in her chest, it still wasn't enough to end her life completely. Sure, there was the fact that bloodloss would be an issue if anything, but for now that wasn't the problem.
"Goodness gracious, are you angry about something to go out and stab me like this? You do know this probably won't kill me- as a matter of a fact, go ahead and keep stabbing me you disgusting spirit, I enjoy your attempts and hatred!"
"I should be asking you the same thing, you piece of shit!" She screamed, clearly agitated greatly by the confusion that jabbed straight into her skull, and sending it's shock wave straight through her mind. Not only that, but the fact of two?! Really?! As if nobody could come up with anything better!! It was stupid, frustrating, uncreative! It made her the same as something else! She hated it, she loathed it with all of her heart! This amanojaku was not a happy one, and when an amanojaku is extremely upset, it's never a good sign.
"I'm Seija Kijin, the one and only counter amanojaku within Gensokyo, this accursed and cruel land!" She hissed, grabbing her counterpart by the collar. "And if you think it's funny to go around actin' like me, you got another thing coming, fucker!!" She began to shake the other Seija violently. "I don't know who the hell you are, but you better explain some shit or you're gonna get hit, understand?!"
"Aw, gee, seems you don't like me very much. Do you know how tempted I am to not explain anything just so you continue to hate me? Hate seems to be a rare thing where I'm from. I've got everyone either kissing up to me or treating me like some sort of god, and it's irritating as fuck. Plus the buildings are eating everyone and gensokyo is completely unstable. You should be glad you failed, considering this place is still stable."
Seija snickered a bit, expecting a negative reaction from the other.
".. Eh?"
In over centuries of living, of just causing mischief for whatever unknown reason that has not been discovered by others or even herself, of attempting her pranks and plans of discomfort and unfairness, this, of all things to happen, would seem absolutely impossible, and it was definitely a first for this amanojaku. Something was different, but everything was still the same. Was this someone attempting to play tricks on her? Were they pretending to be her? It was probably that nue or tanuki that recently came into Gensokyo. Though, yet, that doesn't seem like it either. Who the hell was this. It was a doppelganger, that's who.
"What the fuck is this?!"
"Who the fuck are you, how about that~?"
The amanojaku hovered there, forcing a toothy grin at the other. This was repulsive, how could there be another of her around. She was supposed to be one of a kind, and …
And what was with this Gensokyo?
It was as if she failed in this story, and that bothered her despite the fact that she was very negative about how people were treating her success in the 'unstable' gensokyo.
That aside-
"What the hell is with you, I don't remember signing up for cloning!"

『 ☆ 』 The fact that the entirety of the flowers in the garden were quite vulnerable to wilting from the cold season was something the unearthly had finally taken into accord, as he flicks off the touch of snow on the roses. Huffing out a slow, foggy breath into the winter air, in the pallid haired teen turns on his heel to reveal that there was someone right next next to him — as it makes him jolt in surprise, the company he was sharing definitely brightened Haru's mood.
This wasn't Gensokyo.
Or at least, it didn't look like Gensokyo, this was somewhere else, and Seija didn't find herself too fond of it. Instead of being very calm about anything really, she hovered upside down staring at the boy with a grin as he greeted her. He just sounded so … happy though, and that bothered her. That bothered her a lot more than it should, to be honest.
It took her a moment to make herself mentally calm enough to say anything at all, and when she did speak, her words were unfriendly and harsh.
"What do you want, Kid? I'm a ruler, not some stupid little passerby you see on the street. Bow down to me, pathetic little entity, and tell me where I am right now. I demand it!"
