PC sales have been falling the world over. And this decline of what was the primary computing device for well over three decades has coincided with the growth of the smartphone and the tablet in the past few years. A recent report by research firm Canalys predicts that next year tablets will almost out ship all other PC form factors combined. This segment, which is all of three years old, would by then be big enough to command almost half of the client PC market which also includes desktops and notebooks.
There is one big reason for people choosing the tablet, or the smartphone, over the desktop and the notebook. An overwhelming number of us are just consuming content on these smart devices. If the smart devices arent really great with creation of content, then a bulk of first time users too are not really bothered about stretching these small computing devices to do so. Those who really need a more powerful and versatile device to create serious stuff, already own proper computers. Add to this the fact that the new devices are much more compact and easier to use.
Even though Canalys estimates that over 396 million tablets will be shipped in 2014, this does not mean the desktop/notebook market will be completely wiped out. A lot of things will still have to be done on old-fashioned computers. So there is going to be a huge replacement market. Companies like Intel, which is the largest manufacturer of processors, is optimistic about countries like India where a lot of people still havent used a computer.
But with India there is always the chance that a lot of these people might just skip the PC era and go directly to tablets or smartphones. So just to be on the safe side, Intel and others are opening up to the world of Android, while top PC makers like HP are exploring the world of tablets.

Cookin with The Columns: Comforting food
In times like these...with all the flooding and the concerns over the whole situation, I was looking for "comfort food," the kind of thing we all want when we are worried. I found this recipe that the lady who put it in this cookbook of mine wrote.
She lived a full life until the age of 97. So obviously it was a comfort food to her and I thought it might be the same for all of us. I'm going to try it this week because it sounds like the perfect ending to a meal.

Count Kansas coach Bill Self among the many surprised that SMU did not make the NCAA Tournament field.
Self, a former graduate assistant at Kansas under SMU coach Larry Brown, empathized with the Hall of Famer. The Mustangs (23-9), No. 25 in final poll, were the first ranked team since 2004 to get snubbed by the NCAA Tournament selection committee.
Asked Sunday night about Brown not making the tourney, Self told reporters:
"I can't believe it. I talked to Coach this
morning, and he was confident. He wasn't cocky by any stretch, but he was confident they'd get in, and we talked about first‑round match‑ups.
"I forgot Providence got the automatic bid, so when it all played out going into the last deal, I said (North) Carolina is a No. 6, SMU is a No. 11 because that's what Coach told me this morning; I'll bet they put us against Carolina. And then of course Providence got the automatic bid, so they were out.
"But I feel bad for him because I know what a great season they had, how well they've done and how they've revived that program. Certainly, it's very disappointing."

The Oseberg Ship
On August 8, 1903, a farmer named Oskar Rom paid a visit to Professor Gabriel Gustafson of The University Museum of Antiquities in Oslo. Rom had come across a ship while digging in a large burial mound on his farm, Lille Oseberg in Slagen, Vestfold.
Two days later, Professor Gustafson arrived at the farm. There could be no doubt; the burial mound was a ship grave from the Viking Age. The following summer, on June 13, 1904, an excavation team led by Professor Gabriel Gustafson broke ground with their shovels. The excavation was to continue until November 5, when the last pieces of the ship were removed.

Chocolate Fondue - Dipper Ideas?
Hi all,
I'll be going to a fondue party in a couple of weeks, and I wanted to bring something homemade to dip into the chocolate.
Any ideas? I was thinking of homemade marshmallows (never made before) or since I love orange + chocolate, either an orange angel or chiffon cake.
Any thoughts or other ideas?
Thanks in advance!
re: dustchick
We've found cut up pieces of plain buttery croissants work even better (think chocolate croissant on a fork).
I like to bake cookies as a bar cookie and then slice into cubes. Gingerbread, biscotti and sugar cookies all work well for this application.
brioche is good when it is cubed
Ive used baklava and rugelach, plus fruitcake/stollen/panettone
while you said "homemade," I find fruits are much better dipped in chocolate than baked sweets.
The texture contrast and intense flavors will win you over!
Banana chunks
Mandarin orange segments
apple slices
fresh pineapple chunks
You could supply garnishes as small bowls of different chopped nuts (peanuts, pistachios, almonds, cashews, Brazilnuts), coconut, etc.
In addition to your homemade marshmallows, you might try the peppermint ones that are at TJ's now.
I'd also say pretzels and shortbread cookies.
On another thread, there's talk of a new bacon and chocolate bar, that sounds awesome. Maybe offer a few cubes of pancetta for those who want to try it? Might make for fun conversation.
I just bought stuff to make homemade marshmallows, but haven't done it yet, but I'm sure would be good with fondue.
How about those pretzel rods to dip?
re: Oh Robin
Chocolate covered potato chips are a big seller and regional speciality in the Dakotas - sounds weird, yes, but they are very good.
Frozen cheesecake bars cut into bite sized pieces.
For the orange chocolate, how about little jaffa cakes?
Candied peels, if you have time to make them. Make sure you cut them slightly larger, though, b/c the thin strips are hard to skewer. Along the same vein (or is it vane), crystalized ginger?
Pound cakes are always good for dipping because they won't fall apart so easily when you dip. Maybe you want to make some cookies to dip in too? One of the two...
Otherwise, most fruit is delicious dipped in some chocolate. Or pretzels...anything tastes good in chocolate!
another vote for pund cake. Cake is my favorite thing to dip in chocolate fondue. Something not yet mentioned but could be good: salted caramel.
re: amymsmom
Is chocolate and gingerbread good together or is it a bit too much?
re: SweetPea914
I'm with you on both counts. I'd also add chunks of candied ginger and possibly (if you have time) small cubes of Rice Krispies squares.
Shortbread cookies, sprinkled with chopped nuts after dipping. Presto! Your own Pepperidge Farm treat!
How about some smaller than standard biscotti? You know, if a recipe calls for two loaves, you could make three or four narrower loaves.
we just did this with friends last night and over the past few years it's become a tradition- dippers have included banannas, strawberries, pineapple, pretzel rods, pound cake, twinkies :), homemade marshmallows, and I like the idea of potato chips!
Chocolate Fondue is a family favorite for Christmas Eve. We also do a warm Fondant Fondue. Dippers include pound cake, pretzel rods, Butter Nutters, marshmallows, biscotti and other store bought dippers. Our favorites are homemade baklava, coconut macaroons and ice cream filled cream puffs. HTH
bare truffles, ready for dipping
dried fruits like apricot coins
small popcorn balls
chewy caramels on a stick
homemade nut bars (cut into small squares)
frozen bananas
The best dipper I remember having was cubed then slightly staled banana nut bread. Letting it dry out made it easier to skewer and not fall apart. Yumm!

The pet for this week is…………………
Boots is a very calm, sweet black and white tuxedo short haired neutered male about 2 years old. He doesn't seem to mind dogs and gets along with people great. He is available for adoption and can be found at:

The majority of this month's issue of Legion of Super Heroes focuses on wrapping up the Braalian pirates who put Cosmic Boy in the hospital last time. Cos is being treated by long-time Legion medical specialist Dr. Gym'll, who remarks that Cos has "No ambient magnetism reading… very unlike him." I wonder if we're being set up for "Legionnaire loses their powers" as a future story. Night Girl, Cos' former love interest, looks on, her tears suggesting that his decision to break things off with her wasn't something she agreed with.
Element Lad and Chemical Kid continue their hunt, and eventually find the pirates. After losing another brief clash with them, Element Lad comes close to losing his temper, which you about never see him do. It's a bad plan to anger someone who can pretty much turn anything to anything, especially if you're wearing a suit to survive in space. He converts their oxygen reserves to nitrogen, and they all pass out. Chemical Kid provided some help, but most of this fight just showed how powerful the usually soft spoken Element Lad is. Night Girl, along with Lightning Lass and Shadow Lass, show up at the end to help take down the rest of the non-powered pirates.
The minor subplots here show Sun Boy and Phantom Girl checking on Persuader's Atomic Axe, trying to make sure it's secure amid rumors of someone trying to recreate the Fatal Five. To no one's great surprise, it's gone, replaced by an illusion. Elsewhere, Brainy continues his examination of Comet Queen, and shows I was half-right. I was saying I thought her odd betrayal of the team was from their recent mentalist using her powers. That part was wrong; apparently Comet Queen was given a combination mental time bomb and post-hypnotic suggestion to betray Brainiac 5. So, I had the right cause and the wrong psionic.
There were two small things that popped up in here that struck me as odd. They may not be anything important, but they came out of the blue, especially to a long time Legion fan like me. The first was, while on their mission, Sun Boy put his hand on Phantom Girl's shoulder and she phased out from under it, saying "No touching, Dirk, you know that… unless I ask." She's never said something like that before, and never seemed to have an issue with the casual touch of a teammate before. I don't know if this is a new plot building about her in general, or just because Sun Boy is very much a lady's man on this team.
The other was a strange categorization of the people with powers. I don't recall this ever popping up before, but suddenly, they were drawing distinctions between "planetary adapted" and "uniques." Planetary adapted seems to be those whose entire race share their abilities, like Cosmic Boy, Polar Boy, or Phantom Girl. Uniques seem to be those who gained their powers in an accident, like Sun Boy, Chemical Kid, or Ultra Boy. I'm not sure where this is going, but it was mentioned more than once this issue, which makes me feel like something is going to come of it.
Paul Levitz has proven time and again that he can juggle the huge cast and multiple plots of the Legion. Nothing really major happened in this issue, but lots of small things did that may pop up in the future. As usual, we don't get to see everyone, but really, the cast is too big for that to work. If you're a Legion fan, if you're patient, eventually your hero will rotate around into the main plot. This is going to get a bit worse, I suspect, with the cancellation of Legion Lost, which more than likely will mean those heroes will return to the 31st century. I'm less than impressed with Scott Kolins' art. His faces all look fairly bland, with large expanses of just colored in flesh. I think the only panel that really worked for me artistically was when Night Girl, Shadow Lass, and Lightning Lass showed up at the end, and even then the faces looked odd. Yes, I'm a male comic fan and I do look at the ladies' faces.
Overall I'm continuing to enjoy the good solid storytelling of the Legion. The book remains a favorite of mine, with lots of possibilities for the future, no pun intended. As I've noted before, most of the books I seem to be enjoying are the ones that are mostly untouched by the DC Reboot. There seems to be a pattern there…

Now you can walk down the yellow brick road in style with our huge selection of officially licensed Dorothy Costumes! Choose from many different variations of Dorothy styles and sizes. Match these costumes up with a Cowardly Lion, Tin Man, and Scarecrow costume for a great group look!
Whether you've seen the movie, read the classic storybook, or both, you've probably spent some time day dreaming about playing the role of Dorothy. We've gathered our favorite costume options so that you can see all of the stylish and unique possibilities available for making your dream a reality. Find the right look to match your own unique sense of style!
Dorothy can be stylish in a dress or a pair of tight, dark jeans. Keep it casual, yet trendy, by pairing your favorite pair of jeans with a costume tee and some red heels. This cute outfit will make skipping arm in arm with your Oz friends a whole lot easier!
You can never go wrong with the classic option! Everyone always recognizes the signature blue gingham dress, twin braids, and a wicker basket with little dog inside. There will be no need to answer the question, 'who are you supposed to be?' when you choose this perfect storybook look!
This is an updated version of the iconic costume. You will look like a new and improved farm girl! This dress has cute capped sleeves with attached bows. Add the flouncy petticoat to give the costume some extra attitude.
If you are not willing to blend in with a plain-Jane dress, then this look with the red sequin bow, short skirt and a bright red petticoat will appeal to your inner diva. Let there be no question that the spotlight belongs on you!
There's no denying that gingham always looks great, but when you add adorable red trim and an apron outlined with lace, the gingham becomes gorgeous. The attached button suspenders, separate collar, and ruffled sleeves makes it look like sheis about to go yodeling in the Swiss Alps.
Oz is a colorful world with a yellow brick, a field of bright red poppies, and a horse that changes color. What if Oz was not only vividly colorful but also sprinkled with glitter? Glam up the gingham by adding some glitter to your Dorothy dress! The sequined dress and sparkly shoes will make for a dazzling combination!
It's all in the details! Put the finishing touch on your Dorothy costume with these essential accessories. From braids to bows, from head to toe, we've picked out the best pieces to make you look like a dead ringer for Dorothy! Being your favorite storybook character doesn't happen every day, so make sure you get the most out of the experience by completing your look right.
Oh Toto! That little fur ball really knew how to fluster Miss Gulch. Dorothy's faithful companion is an instigator, but quite the cutie. Tote around Toto in your wicker basket and let him peek out. He promises not to bark or bite Miss Gulch!
This wig features her signature brunette locks coiffed in perfect braided pig tails. That means you can achieve a classic hair-do without any of the fuss. With your hair done so quickly and easily, you'll have more time to enjoy your upcoming adventure!
Be girly in gingham from head to toe! These hair bows will match your stockings and your dress. Attach them to your real hair or a wig.
How many girls do you know match their socks to their dress? It's a great way to take your look to the next level, and now it's easy thanks to these adorable stockings! They have blue gingham bows sewn onto them so they will match your costume perfectly.
Did you know that Judy Garland (the actress who played Dorothy) was only 4' 11" tall? Of course, they had to put the girl in a pair of heels! The ruby red shoes helped make Dorothy the iconic figure she is today, so you need them to complete the look. Now all you need is a yellow brick road and you'll be clickin' your heels all the way to the Wizard.
Check out that pout! Pucker up for pictures with lips that sparkle. Not many girls can say that their lips match their shoes, but you can! These glitter lip adhesives apply to your lips like temporary tattoos and will glam up your look.
Dorothy may be the star of the show, but her companions helped make her adventure memorable. Choose your favorite character to partner with for an adorable couples costume! We've picked our favorites to give you a few ideas, but with a story as timeless as this you almost can't go wrong. After all, Dorothy made friends wherever she went, so you'll have a friendly face at your side no matter who you choose!
The Wizard has every intention of taking Dorothy home to Kansas in a hot air balloon. However, Toto puts a stop to that by jumping out of the contraption. With the help of Good Witch, Dorothy sees that she has always had the power to go home. Home is really just a heel click away!
He may be stuffed with straw, but Scarecrow knows how to bust a move. He's up to date on all the new dance fads and loves to spontaneously bust a move! Take a spirited little stroll with Scarecrow on your arm.
Uh-oh! The Tin Man is feeling a little rusty and can't reach his oil can. Guess you'll just have to come to his rescue. Maybe once you get him to loosen him up he can help you on your way to see the Wizard!
Shame on Cowardly Lion! He only picks on creatures that are weaker than him. Leave it up to Dorothy to fix that. She sasses him back, gives him a slap, and invites him on an adventure to Oz. It never hurts to have a great big lion on your side even if he is a big baby after all!
Rewrite the classic tale of Dorothy and her little dog with some fun variations on her character! Maybe she could take some flying lessons and learn to navigate the sky without the aid of a tornado. Or perhaps she can join the current decade by getting a smart phone and becoming a bit more pretentious. Everyone will do a double take when you add your own spin on a classic Dorothy dress!
Dorothy is going back to Oz, but this time she will make the journey in a plane… not a twister! She's taken a few aviation classes since her last visit and she's ready to navigate the skies. Throw on your goggles, scarf, and bomber jacket and take flight!
Hipster Dorothy is simply always in a rush. She's late for French class, The Tin Man keeps texting her about his problems, Toto has an appointment at the groomer's, plus her Pumpkin Spice Soy Latte is getting cold!
Poke a little fun at Dorothy and create your own costume that is one of a kind. Being engulfed in a classic Kansas-style cyclone would be terrifying but it makes for a clever costume. You'll be in the running for the best costume prize when you're all twisted up in a Dorothy/Tornado costume combo.
Ever wonder what would've happened if Dorothy decided to join forces with the Wicked Witch of the West? The end result would be undeniably evil! Trade in your ruby slippers for combat boots to become Wicked Dorothy!

Originally written on The Assembly Call | Last updated 10/20/14
In our first preview against Purdue, I surmised that Indiana might find itself in a bit of a trap game. A fired up Will Sheehey celebrates with his 'three fingers' sign during a timeout. Indiana won, 97-60. (Chris Howell | Herald-Times) I outlined the various strengths and weaknesses of this Boilermakers team and speculated that our Hoosiers might need to exercise a bit of caution, especially in the hostile environment of your biggest rival. But my cause for concern was somewhat over-exaggerated, as we proceeded to walk into Mackey and blow them out in historic fashion, 97-60. It wasn't a perfect game, but there certainly wasn't much to critique or criticize. Purdue freshman A.J. Hammons did record a career-high with 30 points, but he was only one of two Boilers who scored in double figures that night. Unfortunately for Hammons, he's not likely to have a repeat performance on Saturday at Assembly Hall. When we first looked at our Four Factors, Purdue came out on top in two out of t...

Whilst I would agree that the Windows PC is in decline as Apple and Android devices change the market, I don't understand the scathing hostility in this article. I've been looking forward to a hybrid Windows/Android device for some time and if PC Plus means I'll soon have a bunch to choose from, then I for one am happy. I think it's a wise, mature move to see Wintel admitting that they aren't the only game in town and they're prepared to release machines that let you dual-boot into their competitors OS. Why can't this be something that offers the best of both worlds, and a gradual introduction for folks who are still wary of running something that isn't Windows, rather than a last sad gasp for life from a failing Microsoft and its cronies?
I don't disagree with that perspective at all, though I think Microsoft might take a different view. We did edit this article, however, to balance tone properly in fairness to Microsoft.
I don't think this is a "best of both worlds" scenario at all. I think this will present a wishy-washy Android option along with Windows, which if you're keeping track means that there will be three computing environments on some of these devices when you count Android, the Metro environment, and the classic desktop option. That's just a mess IMHO.
If Windows 8.1 (and in particular 8.1 RT) was strong enough on its own, OEMs wouldn't be looking to add Android apps. It's a sign of weakness.
Also, who's still wary of running a non-Windows system that hasn't had more than ample opportunity to explore Android?

NAACP LDF Calls for a Comprehensive Federal Review of Police Killings of Unarmed African Americans8/11/14
(NEW YORK, NY) --The fatal shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager by police in Ferguson, Missouri, is the latest tragic incident in a summer marked by several police-involved homicides. In this case, the conflicting accounts about why Mr. Brown was killed demand a thorough and impartial investigation by federal authorities.

WASHINGTON (AP) — No one on the Supreme Court objected publicly when the justices voted to let Arizona proceed with the execution of Joseph Wood, who unsuccessfully sought information about the drugs that would be used to kill him.

Noting that McCarthy co-chaired the 2012 Congressional pilgrimage to mark the 47th anniversary of Bloody Sunday in Selma, Alabama (the birthplace of voting rights), Proll powerfully states: "Now, McCarthy has a chance to show that his visit to Selma was more than just a photo op."

Two Koreas agree to hold family reunionsUpdated: 2014-02-06 06:28:00 KST
After just four hours of discussions, the two Koreas agreed on Wednesday to resume the long-suspended reunions for families separated by the Korean War.
"The Koreas have agreed to hold a round of family reunions from February 20th to the 25th at Mt. Kumgang."
The divided family members selected for last year's canceled reunions will take part with 1-hundred South Koreans meeting with their loved ones in the first round and another 1-hundred North Koreans taking part in the second round.
A team of South Korean engineers will cross the border on Friday to check on facilities at the Mt. Kumgang resort, and a South Korean delegation will follow five days ahead of the event.
The planned reunions coincide with South Korea's annual joint military exercises with the United States, which run from late February through April.
North Korea had earlier warned that the humanitarian event could not take place during the military drills, and experts had pointed to the possibility of the North making a counterproposal on the reunion dates.
However, the upcoming drills were not a major issue during the talks.
"There was no specific mention by North Korea of the South Korea-U.S. joint military drills nor a call for the military exercises to be canceled during the talks."
Regarding North Korea's last-minute cancellation of a round of family reunions last year, the ministry said the two sides agreed that such an incident should not happen again.
Millions of Koreans were separated by the Korean War more than six decades ago and considering their ages, the time to see their loved ones one last time is running out.
"The two Koreas also agreed to hold another round of Red Cross talks following the family reunions to discuss a range of humanitarian issues, which includes holding the reunions on a regular basis.
Hwang Sung-hee, Arirang News."

Responses to David Barash on God and Evolution in the Classroom
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
Here are some of the best responses from around the web to David's Barash's controversial editorial about God and Evolution in the New York Times.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
Musician Michael Gungor talks about the recent controversy over the evolution of his views on evolution, science, and biblical authority.
The purpose of Jesus's art was to give verbal, visual, and dramatic forms to those complicated and confounding relationships, symmetries, and harmonies between himself, the father and spirit, and between the triune God and the world… Such creative expressions did not and do not make everything clear, but rather resist simple clarity, forcing their hearers to come at the whole complicated truth from a position of intellectual and spiritual humility.
Everyone is so worried about success and getting this or that honorable diploma—the people here are smart and understand many complex things perfectly—but it's a long distance from the head to the heart.
Children's books are more than stories. They can become familiar narratives children listen to over and over. So it's worth asking - Are the books we're reading doing a good job of portraying God and His Creation?
We must press beyond the various creation narratives in the Hebrew Bible, including the final chapters of Job, to the picture of God revealed in the New Testament—the Creator who does not rationally explain away the scandal of suffering but who instead enters into it.
When you are in church, do you act and speak differently than when you are in school? Do you tend to compartmentalize what you learn about in Biology class from what you learn about in Sunday School?
Russell Crowe as Noah was no superhero. He was very human—perhaps too human for those who'd prefer he remain in the flannel graph world of our Sunday School stories.
All of you who do science, all of you who teach or research or you're involved in engineering or medicine or education, or biology or chemistry or physics—you are doing a noble thing. You are thinking God's thoughts after him. … You are obeying God's command given way back in Genesis to exercise dominion, to learn about, to be curious and discover and steward the earth.
The Psalmist is saying that when we walk outside and look up, the heavens are telling us two things about God: they tell us about his glory, and they tell us about what his hands can do.
Scripture gives us multiple ways of looking at things, and a classic example of this is the parables of Jesus. Many of these involve looking at nature. For example, natural events like seeds growing—and what Jesus seems to be saying is look there is a surface reading of nature—and then there is the deeper reading, where you begin to realize there are levels of meaning that we don't pick up on our first acquaintance.
Sometimes, out of fear or some sense of being required to defend our position, Church leaders and teachers have hastily set up a boundary marker around some doctrinal theory which they have confused as a core doctrinal issue.
As a Christian, I can't think of a more beautiful process for God to have blessed the production of the elements that we need for life than the beauty of stars. In fact, we are told that we shine like stars in the universe.
We can understand why man, modern man in particular, would like to mop the floors and bleach the walls. We might not be able to tame reality, but we can tame our perception of reality. We intellectualize in order to feel in control.
"It's tempting to think that the church needs to decide quickly which of these [original sin] scenarios is right, and which ones must be wrong. I believe the church is better served by taking its time, holding several different scenarios in tension for a while as we think through the implications of each."
We need to hear stories from others who have wrestled with evolution and Christian faith. What arguments made them change their views on science? How did they hold fast to their relationship with God? The essays in this series will eventually comprise a book, provisionally titled, "Evolving: Evangelicals Reflect on Evolution."
"For a few moments, it felt like our little church community was surrounded by glory. The wisdom of Christ in the hypothalamus was illumining the wisdom of Christ in the prophets and gospels."

The McDowell House Museum began its life as the home of Dr. Ephraim McDowell. While he lived on its premises, during the nation's early days, Dr. McDowell pioneered the ovariotomy, a medical treatment unheard of in 19th-century clinics. On Christmas morning in 1809, he surgically removed a 22-pound tumor from the ovary of Jane Todd Crawford—the first procedure of its type ever successfully performed.
Today, Dr. McDowell's house stands as a monument to his medical mind and the people that it saved. On tours through the museum—which is furnished in turn-of-the-century antiques and early medical equipment—guides explain the doctor's lifesaving procedures while strolling through the home's restored Georgian interior. Guests can wander through Dr. McDowell's medical office, search for old-fashioned remedies in his apothecary shop next door, and recuperate from their exertions in the formal gardens. The apothecary shop contains more than 200 pieces of antique medical equipment including a leech jar, early American mortars and pestles, and fossilized tongue depressors. The house and its grounds also overlook Constitution Square State Park, which contains the first post office west of the Alleghenies along with replicas of an early jailhouse and courthouse.
With its rustic architecture and soft, rolling hills of vines, Chrisman Mill Vineyards brings a little taste of Tuscany to the Bluegrass State. Amidst hand-painted murals of Tuscan landscapes, guests in the tasting room pair ciccetti, or Italian tapas, with sips of local wine made from the best Kentucky grapes. The laid-back environment encourages visitors to savor the small pleasures in life, as do the staff, who entertain with amusing anecdotes and enlightening descriptions of how each wine is made. At the winery in Hamburg Pavilion, guests can also browse Kentucky-made goods as well as more than a thousand winery gift items, including customized gift baskets.
Since 1997, Neil and Rachel Vasilakes have been growing fresh fruit with minimal pesticides on 30 acres of rolling farmland. With the grapes, berries, apples, and peaches that grow there, they craft 22 wines. Included in these are nine dry reds, which range from medium to robust, as well as such dry whites as chardonnay and seyval blanc. Neil, the primary winemaker, also enjoys exploring unusual varietals, fermenting small quantities of inventive recipes for his Black Barrel Reserve collection. Though they frequently rotate, these wines sometimes include peach mead, port wine aged in Woodford Reserve bourbon barrels, and black walnut wine aged in Maker's Mark barrels. The winery is also known for Neil's blackberry, strawberry, and blueberry wines.
Within their tasting room, they serve up cheese pairings to complement the flavors of the wines, several of which won silver and bronze medals at the 2009 Kentucky State Fair Commercial Wine Contest. Believing that no good thing should go to waste, they repurpose some wines from the tasting room into gourmet cooking vinegars.
Two penguins, clad in garish hats and coats, square off on the Pimpin Penguins Riesling's tongue-in-cheek label. The dry white wine, tinged with fruity tones, pairs best with potato chips, blue cheese, Chinese dumplings, and jalape?o poppers, according to its winemakers. That sense of whimsy?paired with a dedication to winemaking?is evident in all the wines produced at Horseshoe Bend Vineyards and Winery. The vintners never take their craft too seriously, and the proof is in their other playful wines and labels, such as the Red Jester Chambourcin-Malbec, which pairs well with pasta, and Kong's Thong Norton, excellent with a steak hot off the grill.
Set in the heart of the Bluegrass region, Talon Winery's Shelbyville location is located on the unique backdrop of a hillside just above a lake. Its scenic tasting room hosts a covered porch overlooking a four-acre limestone quarry lake, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing afternoon getaway. The Winery which boasts an atmosphere akin to the charm of a small town also features a Kentucky Proud gift shop where guests can purchase gifts and wines. The tasting room and gift shop are both open seven days a week year round.

Byron's mother was diagnosed with cancer and he created an online campaign to raise money for her surgery. Through social media, his designs and campaign content were widely distributed and he was able to raise enough funds for the surgery but what he truly got out of this experience was that there are wonderful people out there who were willing to help. These campaign posters were offered to be made in t-shirts and now BCS has offered to print on phone cases too. Besides Byron's mother, there are still many people fighting out there.

--Navistar fiscal third-quarter losses larger than expected
--Truck sales drop 15% from a year ago
--Company to cut 500 salaried employees and contractors
(Updates with additional details about work reductions in the 11th paragraph)
By Bob Tita
Losses continued for Navistar International Corp. (NAV), as sales declines for commercial trucks during the company's fiscal third quarter outpaced efforts to reduce costs.
The company reported a larger-than-expected quarterly loss, prompting a new round of expense cuts to save an additional $50 million to $60 million annually. Navistar intends to shed 500 salaried employees and long-term contractors by the end of October. At the same time, it is counting on recapturing lost market share in coming months as it completes its transition to an engine-exhaust-treatment system supplied by Cummins Inc. (CMI).
"While we are pleased with our progress, we continue to fall short of our volume assumptions," said Chief Executive Troy Clarke during a conference call Wednesday with analysts. "As we are switching [exhaust treatment] technologies, some [customers] are waiting on the sidelines."
The company, which is based in Lisle, Ill., revealed late Tuesday that it will offer a Cummins 6.7-liter engine in its medium-duty trucks beginning later this year. Navistar's orders in the medium-duty segment have been weakening lately.
"Medium duty continued to be a challenge in the third quarter," said Jack Allen, chief operating officer of Navistar's truck business. "We still have a lot of work to do here."
Navistar said in the third quarter it had 24% of industrywide retail sales in the medium-duty segment in the U.S. and Canada, behind only Daimler AG's (DAI.XE, DDAIY) Freightliner unit. The company is targeting at least a 30% market share. Navistar already offers 15-liter Cummins engines on its heavy-duty trucks. The company's third-quarter share of the heavy-duty market was 14%; its goal is 20%. Navistar is in fourth place in the heavy-duty market behind Freightliner; Paccar Inc. (PCAR), maker of Peterbilt and Kenworth truck brands; and Sweden's Volvo AB (VOLV-B.SK, VOLVY).
Navistar's third-quarter truck sales overall dropped 15% from a year earlier, to $1.9 billion, as losses from trucks widened to $58 million from $26 million. Sales of engines dropped 14%, to $723 million, while losses on engines expanded to $86 million from $47 million last year. Mr. Clarke reiterated the company "has too much engine-manufacturing capacity," adding that reductions remain under consideration.
Navistar has hit a stretch of quarterly losses caused by falling sales of trucks and escalating expenses stemming from the switch last year to a different treatment system for complying with stricter federal regulations on smog-causing nitrogen oxide in diesel-engine exhaust.
Navistar tried unsuccessfully for years to reach the 2010 standard with a treatment technology that was different from the system deployed by the rest of the North America truck industry. Amid rising fines from the U.S. Environment Protection Agency for selling noncompliant engines, Navistar adopted the same treatment system as other truck makers in July 2012. But the company encountered a mountain of transition costs as well as rising warranty expenses for engines the company had produced in recent years.
The EPA certified Navistar's 13-liter engine this spring as meeting the emissions standard, but truckers have been reluctant to buy Navistar trucks until more is known about the vehicles' performance. That has caused Navistar to increase its reliance on Cummins-built engines.
Mr. Clarke said he is "encouraged by the growing customer acceptance" of Navistar's engines but added that the company needs to do more to lower its costs. Navistar has trimmed its global work force by about 11% in the past year, to 15,000 employees, by closing a truck assembly plant in Texas, selling side businesses, discontinuing a joint venture in India and trimming its corporate staff. The latest staff reductions will trim 300 salaried employees, about 4% of the company's salaried work force, and 200 contractors.
For the quarter ended July 31, Navistar reported a loss of $247 million, or $3.06 a share, versus a year-earlier profit of $84 million, or $1.22 a share. The earlier period included an income-tax benefit of $188 million. Excluding one-time items, Navistar reported a loss from continuing operations of $2.94 a share versus a year-ago profit of $1.16 a share.
Revenue from the quarter fell 12%, to $2.9 billion. Analysts had expected a loss of $1.30 a share on revenue of $2.92 billion.
In July, the company amended an agreement with activist investors Carl Icahn and Mark Rachesky that allows them to designate two nominees for election to the Navistar board in exchange for not launching a proxy contest to gain control of the company's board. Navistar also allowed them to increase their stakes in the company to 19.9% each of the company's stock, from 15% previously.
Navistar's stock closed down 2.7%, or 94 cents, at $33.07 a share.
