JC Cellars & Charles Smith Move Tasting Rooms
A couple of our favorite wineries are moving their tasting rooms to even more urban and walkable locations. JC Cellars the urban pioneer in Oakland is moving to Jack London Square, a personal favorite of my son and I, while Charles Smith and perhaps the coolest winemaker around are moving to Seattle. To date, only startup wineries have located in urban areas, but with established wineries moving into more urban areas as well, things are changing. It's only a matter of months before we see a high end Napa winery open a tasting room, in New York City, at least that's my opinion.
Video Transcription:
How you doing? Mark Aselstine with Uncorked Ventures. So the last few days, or the last couple of weeks here in this space, we've talked a little bit about how the urban wine scene is both improving and expanding pretty rapidly. That news was heightened over the last few days. Two of our favorite wineries in and around the West Coast announced moves to more urban walkable tasting rooms. First, JC Cellars, which is one of the forebearers. They've been in a little spot just outside of downtown Oakland for about ten years now, and they're moving to a spot called Jack London Square. It's full of restaurants. There's a farmer's market on the weekend. It's a really nice spot to go and it's a redeveloping area in Oakland. And so that'll be really good for them.
Up in Washington State, Charles Shaw...Charles Smith Wines, who has one of the most interesting and fascinating winemakers, I think, in the entire industry, has been having a tasting room in Walla Walla for quite a long time. Walla Walla is about four hours east of Portland and four hours east of Seattle, and they've announced that they're gonna be moving into downtown Seattle. So that'll move Charles Smith Wines along with...there's another joint project called Cave Vintners...into downtown Seattle. And I think that it's a good example of how the urban wine tasting scene is both improving in quality, but it's also starting to pull in wineries that already have established tasting rooms elsewhere. And I think that's the best example I can give you of how important this movement is and how much you're gonna continue to see it going in the future. Thanks again. Mark Aselstine with Uncorked Ventures.
Bardessono Winery & the Yountville AVA
A brief introduction to Bardessono Vineyards and the Yountville AVA. Yountville is (rightfully so) on everyone's list when they visit Napa Valley largely because it is one of the most beautiful small towns in America. Imminently walkable Yountville offers the chance to eat some of the best food in America at Bouchon, Ad Hoc and of course the famed French Laundry. The French Laundry has a demonstration garden available to walk through and Yountville makes vineyards accessible for visitors. Wineries are beginning to gain critical acceptance here as well, largely led by names like Bardessono, Cornerstone and Hope & Grace Wines.
Video Transcription:
How are you doing? Mark Aselstine with Uncorked Ventures. The most interesting thing that I came across in terms of samples this week was a Bardessono Yountville AVA Napa Valley Cabernet. So I think most people at this point are familiar with the Napa Valley and some of the different Cabernet options. A lot of people realize that Mondavi and a lot of the other names that you recognize on store shelves across the country are from Rutherford or the valley floor. Other wineries such as Dos Lagos, VinRoc, some of the other smaller producers up on the mountains, are starting to get more well-known, both in terms of having their grapes blended in with wineries that you have recognized.
As an example, Bob Foley from Foley vineyards uses some of the - from the Dos Lagos Vineyards fruit to make his Napa Valley blend because they add a certain sense of gravity and uniqueness to each wine. But this week, Bardessono is from Yountville. So Yountville is a smaller AVA within Napa. There's probably only about 15 wineries and less than a thousand total acres planted. Bardessono is unique for a couple a reasons.
First, they're third and fourth generation farmers. Second, it's a much heavier Napa Cab than you're used to from the valley floor. There's a lot of tannic structure here. I'll add couple of pictures here with the video. But it's a really, really unique property and a really unique look into the history of Napa, the history of ... Yountville's not typically considered the upper valley, but because it is only eight miles from downtown, but it's a really high end growing environment. And it's a growing environment that you're probably going to see more stuff starting to come out of in the near future. Thanks again. Mark Aselstine with Uncorked Ventures.
8000 Commercially Active Wineries in America
Video Transcription:
How are you doing? Mark Aselstine with Uncorked Ventures. The most interesting news of the day, I think, is Wines and Vines, which is one of the few professional organizations that covers wine, here in the United States. Every year they release a count of new wineries and the number of currently permitted wineries in the United States. For the first time, we have over 8000 wineries. It looks like the exact total of currently permitted licenses, 8049.
What I thought was kind of interesting, outside of the growth, which I think should be expected as we see more little, small local wineries opening up in urban areas across the country, even those like some of the stuff we have here in the East Bay of San Francisco, where they're sourcing grapes and kind of putting them in by truck, and then making the wine locally. There's a number of really good wine makers doing that, both in Berkeley and Oakland. I'm sure that's a kind of trend that you're going to continue to see across the country.
But, the largest place for growth has actually been Oregon. Having been up in the Willamette Valley, myself, for about a week over the summer, I can attest it being like no wine area that I've been to in California. You drive down the street, and you have a farmer growing wheat, you have a farmer growing peaches, you have Penner-Ash, one of the best known wineries, really, in the Western United States, if not the world. There's this small cluster of three or four wineries together, but for the most part they're a few miles apart and there's all these diverse farms in the middle. Now I'm not saying that I think the diverse farms is a bad thing at all, I think that's actually a really positive thing for the wider environment. But I think it's something that, if you look at the growth history of Napa, Sonoma, Paso Robles, even now in Santa Barbara and Ballard Canyon, the fact of the matter is that if you can grow high quality grapes, they're worth a heck of a lot more than high quality peaches. And so, I think that's something you'll continue to see Oregon and elsewhere.
Once again, Mark Aselstine from Uncorked Ventures. Thanks again.
How's the 2014 Vintage Looking?
A simple question leads to well, a fairly simple answer for someone who isn't normally extremely direct.
Video Transcription:
How are you doing? This is Mark Aselstine with Uncorked Ventures. So the last time I did one of these, we talked about harvest starting in 2014 and being good time to visit Wine Country.
In this case, one of the things that's come up the questions about that kind of stuff has been, "Is this a good vintage or not?" So I could speak most accurately for Napa and Sonoma which both had pretty similar growing conditions over the last year. So free set came early, but break early, varies on early, everything is running a week or two ahead of normal schedules.
When we look back at past history and there's really only great written hard evidence from the early 1970s, anything before that is oral history, more than anything else. The one in history does that better than most, but can confidently say that the earlier is better than later when it comes to a strong vintage and for most wine makers that we talked to, there would all say the same thing.
This looks like it's going to be a good year, maybe not a perfect year, maybe not 2007 in Napa, but certainly along the lines with 2012 which is what I received across the board and although it might not be so easy that I can make wine without any trouble, but professional wine makers are going to do a really good job with this vintage. I think everybody is going to be pretty happy with it.
It looks like yields, despite the drought, are going to be ready in the average range. So all looks good in Napa and Sonoma and I will probably update Santa Barbara/Paso Robles here in the next couple of weeks because I'll be going.
Thanks again.
Attend Harvest! Oh and What the heck is Grenache Blanc?
A few short words on everyone's favorite time in wine country: harvest! It's a great time to visit, if you have the chance. Also, since most urban areas in America are seeing a rise in local wineries (I'll say local is within an hour's drive) and many of those wineries are small and could use the help, if you have the opportunity to work a day of harvest locally, please do so. It'll give you an appreciation for the work and effort that goes into what ends up in your glass like little else. It's also a ton of fun.
I also mention Grenache Blanc since it's one of my favorite grapes, but even an assistant winemaker in western Sonoma admitted that she had never had a varietal specific version of the grape. It's worth a look!
How are you doing? Mark Aselstine with Uncorked Ventures. Just getting in after a day or two up in Sonoma. And a couple things came up that we thought were interesting. First, Grenache Blanc is a varietal that you see down in the Rhones area of Paso and Santa Barbara. We mentioned it to a couple people in Sonoma Coast and they looked at us like we had, in essence, a second head. I thought it was interesting that even an assistant winemaker at a really, really, well-known winery isn't familiar with kind of a secondary Rhone grape. I just thought it was interesting 'cause it shows you how far grapes like that have to come still to gain consumer acceptance, when there's winery staff that doesn't even quite know what they are.
Second of all, if you get a chance to visit Sonoma, Napa, or really any wine region close to your house during harvest, it's kind of, I don't use the term lightly, a magical time to go and visit. It smells like fermentation. There's grapes. There's kind of work going on. You have winemakers and winery staff working 18 hour days. In essence, this is the time of year when everything that needs to happen happens. There's a lot going on, and it's a really fun visit.
If you have the chance, I would highly, highly, encourage it. It's a fascinating time to go to wine country. You get to see more of what goes on behind the scenes. While people don't have as much time to spend time with you, you get more access to see what's going on. Most places, you'll walk in, you'll see stuff coming in out of the vineyard and being sorted. You'll see a sorting table. You'll see a bottling truck sitting in front of your favorite wineries. It's kind of a fun time to go. If you get a chance, that's my suggestion. Take the trip. It's worth it. Thanks again.

I recently managed to get a hold of the letters of the original Buffett Partnership. In those letters Warren Buffett describes the investment strategies employed by the partnership, the structure of the partnership as well as the fees that the limited investors paid for performance.
These partnership letters are different than Berkshire Hathaway's (BRK.a, BRKb) letters to shareholders. Buffett wrote them between 1959 and 1969 and sent them out to the limited investors of the Buffett Partnership. He also provides additional information, which allows aspiring value investors to better understand how the young Buffett made his investment decisions early in his career.
The fees that Buffett was charging his limited partners were solely based on his performance. After all the partnerships merged into a single one in 1962, Buffett would get 25% of any profits over 6% that he partnership generated. In other words, if the partnership earned less than 6%, which was most probably how much it could have earned in fixed income, Buffett would get not compensation.
In one of his 1962 letters to limited partners, Buffett explained in detail the strategies he used to generate excessive returns.
The first group of companies (generals) he invested in was undervalued securities, where his partnership would hold about 5-10% of total assets in 5-6 companies and smaller positions in another ten or fifteen stocks. This group of stocks provided a relative margin of safety when purchased but behaved just like the market. Overall his portfolio in this section was relatively diversified, and but had a very good chance to generate excessive returns in up markets. One site that provides good ideas on generals is Old School Value.
The second group of companies that Buffett Partnership LTD tended to focus on was workouts. Those were stocks affected by corporate events like mergers and acquisitions, spin-offs, reorganizations and liquidations. Buffett did mention that this strategy would produce relatively stable earnings from year to year, which would make this portion of his portfolio outperform the markets in bad years, but underperform in strong markets. An example of such activity is the Pfizer/Wyeth merger announced in January 2009.
The third strategy where the Buffett Partnership concentrated was control situations. These were events where the partnership would initiate a large enough position in a company and try to influence corporate policy. A famous control situation is Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.A), which started out as an undervalued position.
Another important fact is that Buffett put his money where his mouth was – most of his net worth was invested in the Buffett partnership. In my research of successful companies I have found out that management which has a large chunk of their net worth in company stocks, tend to deliver more and are less likely to de-fraud individual investors. Companies where owners hold a large chunk of their net worth include Bill Gates holdings in Microsoft (MSFT), Richard Kinders holdings in Kinder Morgan (KMP) and John D. Rockefeller's Standard Oil in the late 19th and early 20th century.
You could download them all from this link.
Here's a timeline of the life of the Buffett Partnership:
1956 - Benjamin Graham retired and closed his partnership. At this time Buffett's personal savings were over $174,000 and he started Buffett Partnership Ltd., an investment partnership in Omaha.
1957 - Buffett had three partnerships operating the entire year.
1958 - Buffett operated five partnerships the entire year.
1959, -The company grew to six partnerships operating the entire year.
1960 -Buffett had seven partnerships operating: Buffett Associates, Buffett Fund, Dacee, Emdee, Glenoff, Mo-Buff and Underwood. In
1962- Buffett merged all partnerships into one partnership.
1966 -Buffett closed the partnership to new money.
1969 - Following his most successful year, Buffett liquidated the partnership and transferred their assets to his partners. Among the assets paid out were shares of Berkshire Hathaway.

TEMPE, Ariz. -- As Arizona State defensive tackle Jaxon Hood answered questions Sunday about the Sun Devils pending bowl bid, his massive left bicep displayed an equally large tattoo. Scrawled above a favorite Bible verse are the words "Dark Horse." Above that is a bucking horse with fierce eyes. "That's me, the dark horse," Hood explained. "People said I couldn't do it, but here I am." Characterized a year ago as a marginal Division I prospect because of his height (6-feet-0), Hood quickly disproved his doubters by starting all 12 games of his freshman season and earning All-Pac-12 honorable mention. "I always like proving people wrong," Hood said. "I don't like people saying what I can and can't do. I wanted to be in control of my own destiny and not let the thoughts or opinions of people who don't even know me or how I work control me. I wasn't going to let them be right about anything." At 6-foot, Hood isn't the prototype height for the defensive line. Then again, his neighb...

I ride in hard pack clay and rocks as well as soft loamy rocky terrain and it very seldom loses traction. The best tire for the money for off road woods ridding.
Richard L (Sylva )
Replaced stock Dunlop tires with Diablos because reviews were so good. Love the way they handle so far. Hope they meet their great reputation.
Ed S (Brookline )
Use the Diablo's on a Ducati 900SS and figured I'd try the Diablo Scooter cousin on my Vespa GTS300 Super -- excellent choice!
Jan (Mount Morris )
I have been using Pirelli MT66's for four years on my Suzuki VL-800 Boulevard. They wear well, and, given that I don't push this little cruiser in corners or in dirt, they stay on the road in both dry and wet situations. I will probably continue to renew with these as long as I ride this bike.
Paul (Oconto )
Great tire! Hugs the road!

I feel a bit sick about the amount of ice cream I have had, might have to take a bit of a break on the old cream. There was a shop near us though that sold one scoop for €1.80 and it was honestly the best ice cream I've ever had. So many flavours and all home made! I had white chocolate and passion ...

Install, Configure and Secure Lighttpd with New Book from Packt
Install, Configure and Secure Lighttpd with New Book from Packt
Packt is pleased to announce a new book that will help users work with Lighttpd, the lightning-fast web server. Written by Andre Bogus, Lighttpd will help system administrators understand and set up the Lighttpd web server as securely and quickly as possible.
Lighttpd is a secure, flexible, and most importantly, light web server designed and optimized for high performance environments. It has advanced features (FastCGI, CGI, Auth, Output Compression, URL Rewriting, and many more), and small memory footprint compared to other web servers. This is what makes Lighttpd the perfect server software for every web server.
This book will help users understand Lua/FastCG and write custom modules/plugins for the Lighttpd API and also get them working with Lighttpd's web application interfaces to prevent attacks and minimize damage if attacked. Readers will learn how to configure Lighttpd to use SSL, and will also be shown how to migrate from Apache to Lighttpd.
Lighttpd has become popular within the Ruby on Rails community and this book will help users learn how to set up web applications and frameworks such as WordPress, Ruby on Rails, MediaWiki, trac, AjaxTerm, and more. Through this book, web developers will be able to create a lean deployment platform for their web applications.
This book is targeted at system administrators or web developers seeking to switch to a lighter web server than Apache. This book is out now and is available from Packt. For more information, please visit: http://www.packtpub.com/lighttpd/book

From Books to Movies - Action Heroes
Alex Cross
Alex Cross
The Cross series from James Patterson has been a mainstay on bestseller lists. The eighteen books have been massively popular but have warranted fewer movies than you would think. Along Came a Spider and Kiss the Girls were popular '90s films, and Tyler Perry is finally bringing the intense detective back to life with Alex Cross. Rated PG-13, this movie looks to be as intense as the books, but with Tyler Perry starring will certainly carry a positive message with it.

InterfaithFamily.com, Inc. is the online resource for interfaith families exploring Jewish life and the grass-roots advocate for a welcoming Jewish community. This resource is for everyone touched by interfaith relationships where one partner is Jewish, on every topic of interest to them, and for everyone who works with and cares about them.
In response to perceived interest in and need for "how-to-do-Jewish" information, especially on the part of young interfaith families with children, and a clear trend favoring multimedia including video in conjunction with text in web based experiences, our expansion goals include producing a comprehensive set of "how-to" resources including multimedia and video items and text resource guides, like our existing Wedding Ceremony Guide and Bar and Bat Mitzvah Guide for Interfaith Families, over a three-year period.
The online magazine InterfaithFamily.com was launched in November 1998 by Jewish Family & Life!, leading provider of Jewish media. Edmund Case became the publisher of the magazine in May 1999. In 2001 Ed founded the independent non-profit InterfaithFamily.com, Inc. to better serve the needs of interfaith families and the new non-profit acquired the magazine. Following the acquisition, the website was expanded to offer additional resources.
• We will continue publishing personal narratives that address different audiences including children in interfaith families, non-Jewish parents, single parents, extended non-Jewish and Jewish family relatives, and multicultural/multiracial families.
• We will address the need for "how-to" information by continuing to produce text Resource Guides. In 2009 we plan to produce three guides and are considering Shabbat, the Jewish worship service, Jewish food, and grand-parenting.
• We will continue to add multimedia and video to the site, but on a modest basis, including:
· Evaluating and linking more extensively to existing video on other sites including MyJewishLearning.com, including, where permitted, embedding existing video into pages with our own text introduction designed to make the existing material sensitive to our audience.
· Implementing a video contest, such as cell phone videos of young children doing something related to interfaith family/Jewish life.
• To present our existing personal narrative content as effectively as possible, we will start to package groupings of articles organized by a "most common situations" concept (i.e., "you're not Jewish, your son is having a Bar Mitzvah, what should you expect;" etc.).
· The new groupings would be presented on the relevant Resource Page and could be in downloadable format, in effect a printable pamphlet on a particular situation.
· Jewish Lights Publishing is interested in having us produce a second anthology; the groupings could become the basis for such a book in the future.
· We will explore including video and audio in the groupings, for example, interviews of writers of articles, or "ask the Rabbi" interviews addressing the different most common situations.
· An additional strategic priority that relates to both content and marketing is to distribute our content more effectively and use it to increase awareness of our resources. This will require blogging more extensively on our own site and commenting on blogs on other sites, and expanding content partnerships, including with MJL and other high traffic sites of interest to our audience.
InterfaithFamily.com is a unique resource in its own right. While there are other sites that show people how to light Chanukah candles or explain a Passover seder, none are targeted directly to interfaith families. There is a sensitivity and understanding that InterfaithFamily.com's content provides that others who talk about the same topics miss.
These are six verbatim comments we received in December 2008:
· Date: Mon, 22 Dec 2008 13:11:48 -0500 From: Becky (posted in our Parenting discussion board under the title of Article Discussion: So You Want to Be a Jewish Mother but You're Not Jewish).
Comment: This is a tremendously helpful article. I'm a non-Jewish woman preparing to start a life with a Jewish man, and not quite willing to convert, but thrilled to raise Jewish children. There are very few resources available for my situation, so thanks.
· Date: Fri, 18 Dec 2008 10:25 -0500 From: Unregistered (posted in our December Holidays discussion board under the title of Article Discussion: Baby's First Christmas).
Comment: Thank you so much for this article. I am marrying the man of my dreams in March and he is Catholic. He has already given me the incredible gift of raising our future children Jewish. However, we did buy a tree this year to make him feel at home. God bless him, he keeps referring to it as our holiday tree and decorated it all in silver and blue. I love the fact that your children can celebrate with their grandparents and cousins. That is what we want to do and I am glad to see it working.
· Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2008 3:43 -0500 From: Bobby (posted in our Conversion discussion board under the title of Article Discussion: Standards and Ceremonies Involved in Reform Conversion in the Boston Area).
Comment: i am going through conversion and now am going before the beit din and yes i am a little nervous which i know is normal i know already most of the things and am ready to set foot on my way this site here helps me to be ready to meet the beit din i am glad i read this page
· Date: Tue, 16 Dec 2008 11:41 From: Email from Julie N.
Comment: Thanks to you and all of your staff for doing such important work. I recently had twins and I look forward to raising them, as well as our sweet Jake, with the support of Interfaith Family resources.
· Date: Wed, 3 Dec 2008 From: Email from Sara M.
Comment: I was very pleased to come across your website. I live in the NH seacoast area and I was looking at synagogues for possible rabbis that might officiate at my interfaith wedding. Your website has proved to be very helpful and I just wanted to let you know how appreciative I am.
· Date: Tue, 2 Dec 2008 From: Email from Rabbi Charles B.
Comment: I just wanted to let you know that I received a call from someone wanting me to officiate at a baby naming service. She found my name on the IFF website. Thanks for encouraging me to register.

Oklahoma State football: Cowboys have two starting QBs
But they're also different styles of players, which can add another dimension to OSU's already powerful offense and give opposing defensive coordinators another element to think about while game-planning.
Chelf has better-than-average mobility but is primarily a thrower. Walsh is sometimes a limited thrower but has displayed excellent athleticism and toughness while running the football.
Though Chelf went out with the first unit during team drills in spring practice, he ultimately got the same amount of reps as Walsh and former Cowboy Wes Lunt, Gundy said. A similar routine has apparently taken place during fall camp, with both Chelf and Walsh each getting even more work with Lunt transferring to Illinois.
How equal will the actual game reps be? And how long will this approach go on? We'll see. Gundy said he would obviously play one quarterback over the other if there was a clear difference in performance on the field.
But for now, the Cowboys don't have one starting quarterback. They have two.
"There's no perfect (answer)," Gundy said. "It's an issue. I think everybody would say you'd rather have an NFL quarterback and play one. That makes it a lot easier for everybody.
"If you don't, if there's two guys that both deserve to play, you gotta play them. That's really the only way to handle it."

Due to the size differences between these large trucks and other automobiles, among other factors, such collisions often result in serious injuries, or death, for those involved. In fact, the New York Department of Motor Vehicles reports that 105 people were killed, and more than 5,000 were injured, in truck accidents in 2013 alone. While not all semitrailer crashes can be prevented, there are some steps you can take to help share the roads safely with commercial trucks.
If you have never operated a tractor trailer, you may not be aware that these vehicles handle differently than other automobiles. In general, however, large trucks are more difficult to steer and maneuver. Truckers may have to initially move one way before they are able to turn and the back end of these vehicles may protrude across other lanes of traffic when they are making turns. As such, it is advisable that you allow them more space than you may other vehicles.

"The material covered in LSSU's engineering program provided me a solid foundation for graduate studies. The systematic approach and communication skills needed to tackle engineering projects were taught and then practiced over and over again. In particular I appreciate the many hours spent by the faculty to develop oral presentation skills in each student. As a graduate student now, these skills have proven to be highly beneficial and, to my surprise, obviously not taught to the same extent at many other universities."

Team SI was tasked to optimize and build an electronic clamping module prototype. The system unlocks and locks a steering column allowing the user to adjust the position of the steering wheel and column with just the push of a button. The result is a module that is smaller and more cost effective than the original prototype. An add-on feature includes a wireless remote to actuate the system that will be available for an aftermarket version of the module.

I was going to say the exact same. Only I was going to add that Seraphin is just a misspelling of seraphim. I also think Despin sounds like Destitin- like the diaper rash ointment.

LOOK: Frank Miller's "Dark Knight III" Wraparound Variant Revealed
Comic Books
The latest Humble Bundle book bundle has been unveiled, and it's a musical mix of novels and graphic novels that are either by or about musicians.
The Humble Bundle deal lasts for two weeks, and it works like this: For the first tier, you pay what you want — as little as a penny. This gets you seven items, including three graphic novels: The first volume of Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie's gods-as-rock-stars series The Wicked + The Divine, the first volume of Rick Spears and Chuck BB's Black Metal and This Is a Souvenir: Songs of Spearmint & Shirley Lee, an anthology of short stories based on the songs of the British group Spearmint, plus three prose novels (two by Rush drummer Neil Peart) and an audio collection of Pete Seeger's spoken-word pieces.
Gilbert Shelton, creator of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, recently turned 75, and the digital comics app Sequential is celebrating with a free collection of his work.
It includes some classic Freak Brothers strips, covers and a history of the comic, as well as a few interesting bits of ephemera such as the package design for the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers rolling papers and the label for Tall Toad ale, Fat Freddy's favorite brew. The sampler is available for free through the end of June.
Shelton was one of the pillars of the underground comics movement of the 1960s and early 1970s, a co-founder of Rip Off Press as well as the creator of the Freak Brothers and Wonder Wart-Hog. He was inducted into the Eisner Hall of Fame in 2012 (I was proud to be one of the judges that year).
About a year and a half ago, the founders of Medium did something that was both totally old-school and daringly novel: They set up a dedicated cartoon site, The Nib, hired editorial cartoonist Matt Bors to run it, and gave him a budget to pay the contributors. At a time when even venerable institutions like The Atlantic expect writers to pitch in their articles for free, this was a welcome sight — a publication with enough respect for its contributors to offer them paying work.
It showed, too; some of the most remarkable comics of the past year and a half have appeared on The Nib, including work by Leela Corman, Mike Dawson, Eleanor Davis, Shannon Wheeler and Sarah Glidden. Those are just the creators who appear on the front page today.
And now, just like that, it's gone, to be replaced by … well, it's not clear. Bors posted an announcement Friday that things would be different going forward:
Ahead of its launch of 24 new series, beginning this week with Batman Bey0nd, The Omega Man and Midnighter, DC Comics is kicking off a digital sale it calls its biggest ever.
Throughout June, the publisher will roll out more than 1,200 digital comics for 99 cents each as part of its "New DC Universe Sale." It all starts Tuesday with Week 1, featuring more than 600 issues from the New 52, with titles ranging from Aquaman to Batgirl to Harley Quinn.
A U.K. publisher contends it was forced to redraw a character based on England's famed Cerne Abbas Giant following objections by digital distributors to the figure's erect penis.
Britain's largest chalk hill figure, the mysterious 180-foot naked man overlooking Cerne Abbas in Dorset is widely known for his enormous erection, which has been called "Britain's most famous phallus."
And a new website is looking to bring together webcomic creators under one roof to build an audience and a business for them.
Describes as a "curated not-for-profit comic-sharing" website, Zco.mx was inspired by the community nature of artist-oriented conventions like the Toronto Comic Arts Festival. Using a straightforward web design (both for readers and participating cartoonists), Zco.mx aims to provide a hassle-free, high-quality anthology-like approach to webcomics, in part by using file-sharing systems like BitTorrent.
The British sci-fi anthology 2000AD was one of the first publishers to offer digital comics, and it ofers readers a choice: They can buy single issues and graphic novels within their iOS and Android apps or as direct downloads from their web store.
The advantage to the latter has always been that direct downloads are free of digital rights management (DRM) — they are simply files that can be freely moved from device to device — while comics purchased within the apps can only be read within the apps. Each way of buying comics has its advantages; the apps allow the user to store comics in the cloud and keep them organized in a single place on their tablet or computer, while PDF and CBZ files come with no strings attached.
The tagline for one1990s wrestling promotion was "Where the Big Boys Play!" Wonder what they'd think of Archie Andrews?
Following a recent uptick in pro-wrestling appreciation by the comics industry, Archie Comics has released a digital collection of its wrestling-themed stories. Given the cover image and title, Archie & Friends Wrestle Maniacs, Archie gives a bit of a nod to WWE's Wrestlemania and Hulk Hogan (whose fans are "Hulkamaniacs").
Humble Bundle has rolled out the second Transformers bundle, with up to $155 worth of IDW Publishing's comics starring the robots in disguise.
There's a bit of a catch, however: The offer runs for just one week, ending Wednesday, March 11, at 11 a.m. PT.
Popular digital subscription service Scribd, often referred to as "Netflix for books," this morning launched a comics section, giving users access to more than 10,000 titles from such publishers as Marvel, IDW Publishing, Archie Comics, Top Shelf, Top Cow, Valiant and Dynamite. The expansion brings the Scribd library to more than 1 million titles.
As part of the $8.99 flat monthly fee, users now can move beyond Scribd's prose and audiobook offerings to read comics ranging from The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and March: Book One to Afterlife With Archie and Ultimate Spider-Man.
Coinciding with the release of the landmark Spawn #250, the entire library of Spawn comics — including the 20-volume Spawn Origins Collection — is now available digitally for the first time on comiXology.
As Todd McFarlane breaks it down on his Facebook page, "That's over 23 years (and more than 5,300 pages of story and art) of the Spawn mythology available with one swipe of your finger."
High Moon artist Steve Ellis, who last year drew the comic prequel to AMC's Revolutionary War thriller Turn, was called back to the stand for a tie-in to the cable channel's Breaking Bad spinoff Better Call Saul.
Although the TV series, which premieres on Sunday, is set before the events of the acclaimed crime drama, the new online comic, Better Call Saul: Client Development, actually spins out of the Season 2 episode of Breaking Bad that introduced Saul Goodman, the shady attorney played by Bob Odenkirk.
Developer 800 North has teamed with artist Tommy Lee Edwards and media company Spark and Roar to create a comic based on its first-person shooter video game Dino D-Day.
Debuting in 2011, the game is set in an alternate history where Adolf Hitler discovered a way to resurrect dinosaurs to create a massive army.
Titled Operation Genesis, the comic tells the origin stories of the game's two lead characters — Colonel Nigel Blythe-Crossley and Captain Jack Hardgrave — through a unique collaboration: Spark and Roar's Gregory R. Little wrote the story, for which Edwards created full-color layouts. Then 800 North's Abe Scheuermann and Brian Ulrich used the game as "a virtual prop house" to create the necessary images.
Nobrow Press co-founder Sam Arthur once described the company's mission as "to publish books that deserved to be printed — and by that I mean they needed to exist as tactile objects that people [can] collect and cherish." This has been borne out over the years as Nobrow established itself as a publisher that paid painstaking attention to the production process.
Given that, it's not surprising that it took Nobrow seven years to go digital, and when it did, it came up with a digital solution that addresses the physical aspects of its comics.
ComiXology has announced the 25 bestselling comiXology Submit titles of 2014.
Launched in 2013, the self-publishing portal allows independent creators to upload their comics and graphic novels for sale worldwide, with profits split evenly between comiXology and the creator.
Although comiXology doesn't provide any details about number of downloads, the list still makes for interesting reading, as it's a mix of titles you might expect — Leaving Megalopolis by Gail Simone and Jim Calafiore, Testament by Douglas Rushkoff & Co. — and some that don't have that level of creator name recognition, like Benjamin Rivers' Snow and Beto Skubs and Rafael de Latorre's Fade Out: Painless Suicide.
While Leaving Megalopolis and Testament: Omnibus top the chart, Joe Benitez's Lady Mechanika claims three spots. It's also an incredibly diverse list, where the mystery Watson and Holmes is found alongside the "world's sexiest anthology" Smut Peddler, and the gay superhero title The Pride is nestled between the Western Moth City Preludes: The Reservoir and the pirate adventure Annie Bonnie.
