The Dish Heads To The Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival
CLICK HERE for more photos of Wine Country!
Disclosure: The Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival hooked us up with the VIP treatment including a stay at Temecula Creek Inn & the tastings at each of the premiere Temecula Valley Wineries.
Imagine the most beautiful vineyards, the best views, the best food and the best people all wrapped into one event. That event is the Temecula Valley Balloon & Wine Festival.
I was blessed with the opportunity to check out all that the festival has to offer and all I can say is "WOW"! We stopped by four of the wineries that are participating in the festival: Wilson Creek Winery & Vineyards, Robert Renzoni Vineyards & Winery, Weins Family Cellars and Europa Village. The common thread? Passion for what they do!
Our first stop was Wilson Creek Winery where we were able to sit down and have lunch with Greg Pennyroyal, Enology & Viticulture Coordinator for Wilson Creek. Not only did he show us the proper way to open champagne (twist it off, don't pop it off), but he also paired a wine for each persons' meal. I got the Roasted Shelton Chicken and Greg paired my meal with a fabulous white wine called Viognier. My girlfriend Ashley ordered Gerry's Reuben Sandwich and Greg paired it with a red wine called the Mourvedre Reserve...SO GOOD! Something that Greg made sure we tried was Wilson Creek's famous Almond Champagne. Perfect for a mimosa or a sweet, refreshing drink of it's own!
The second stop was a new winery to Temecula, Robert Renzoni Vineyards & Winery. We were able to see the facility before it was finished and it's clear that Temecula is in for a treat. From hidden rooms to intimate lounge areas, nothing is off limits at the Robert Renzoni Winery! I tried a couple amazing red wines while I was there that is called 2011 Concerto and the Flore di Fano...both are delicious and I highly recommend a tasting! As good as the wine is, there is more than just wine being sold at the Renzoni Winery. Leila, the family dog, also has a line of hot sauce including a Habanero & a Green Chile sauce!
Just when we thought our visit couldn't get anymore exclusive we went to Weins Family Cellar and got treated to an intimate tasting of the very best wines in the Reserve Cellar Room. We started with a 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon and proceeded to try the 2012 Reserve Chardonnay. One thing that stuck out about Weins was the customer service. Each wine has a great story to go along with it. If there wasn't a story, there was a kind smile to ask you how you're doing. What more could you ask for?
The final stop of the day was Europa Village. You walk into the facility and immediately feel like you're in Europe. To partner with that feel, all of the wines are reflective of those found in France, Spain and Italy. The cool part about Europa Village is that it is set up to takes you on a journey...a wine journey if you will. C'est la Vie Wine Chateau offers a French wine country experience, Bolero Cellars brings a Spanish flare, and Vienza is all things Italian. Europa Village also has great rooms to top off your experience!
I recommend starting your experience at the festival with a balloon ride. Not only is it perfect for a romantic setting, but the views alone are what sold me. We get it, sometimes heights aren't for everyone, including me, but a hot air balloon is a necessary part of the Temecula experience and remember...you've got a glass of champagne or wine waiting for you!

NORWALK - The city received a $68,258 grant recently from the California Office of Traffic Safety for safety enforcement and crash prevention.
The year-long grant, which runs to September 2013, funds several enforcement activities, including speed, red light, stop sign, motorcycle safety, distracted driving, seat belt and child safety seat and sobriety checkpoints, said Joshua Yordt, Norwalk's public safety manager.
The grant also funds specialized DUI and drugged driving training programs such as Standardized Field Sobriety Testing, Advanced Roadside Impaired Driving Enforcement and Drug Recognition Evaluator, he said.
While California traffic deaths from all causes declined by nearly 39 percent between 2006 and 2011, state and federal officials anticipate figures will rise slightly in 2012. Recent trends show increases in two new categories - distracted driving and drug-impaired driving, according to the California Office of Traffic Safety.
DUI deaths remain the largest sector, at nearly 30 percent, of traffic fatalities.
In Norwalk last year, 478 traffic collision injuries were reported; 34 of those injuries were from alcohol-involved collisions.
Six deaths were reported; two of them were from alcohol-involved collisions, Yordt said.
The grant originated from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and was channeled through the Office of Traffic Safety. email@example.com, 562-499-1258, twitter.com/zonkelpt

Victoria Cross Medal Database 1857 – 2007
If one of your ancestor was in one of the services then almost certainly they will will have been awarded a medal or two. The highest military decoration is of course the Victoria Cross (VC), it was awarded for valour in the face of the enemy and the recipients were members of the armed forces of Commonwealth countries and previous British Empire territories.
The VC was first introduced in 1856 by the then Monarch Queen Victoria to honour the bravery of those involved in Crimean War (October 1853 – February 1856). The medal has been awarded a total of 1,356.
What will you find in the database?
The Ancestry.co.uk database of Victoria Cross Medal recipients lists the following information –
last known rank and unit
location and description of deed
birth date
death date
place of burial (as applicable)
description of memorial (as applicable)
Many of the individual files have photographs of the recipients, if no photographs are attached then related images have been sourced and attached to the file. The dates used is the date of the award not the date of the event for which the award was given.
Example Search
A search for George Nurse showed the following information.
George Edward Nurse, V.C.

This Week's Reading
What We're Loving: Communism, Climates, CatsBy The Paris Review
Shortly after moving to New York, I found a used copy of Twenty Letters to a Friend, a memoir, written in 1963, by Svetlana Alliluyeva, Stalin's daughter. It's an unlikely book, to say the least—she condemns Communism, details her father's agonizing death, and tries to come to terms with her own, very particular Stalinist experience—and it fed my budding fascination with Soviet cultural history. Nicholas Thompson's essay in the March 31 issue of The New Yorker, which describes his friendship with Alliluyeva and her experiences in the United States, was a reminder of how that bizarre, late Soviet period had first piqued my interest. I'd never read, though, about Alliluyeva's encounter with Frank Lloyd Wright's widow, Olgivanna, an adherent of the theosophist G.I. Gurdjieff. Oligvanna believed Alliluyeva to be the reincarnation of her daughter, also named Svetlana, and wanted her to marry the dead woman's husband; she did. It's the kind of thoroughly weird story that couldn't possibly be true, but then, this is Stalin's daughter. —Nicole Rudick
After receiving two uncomprehending reviews in the New York Times, Jenny Offill's novel Department of Speculation has finally gotten the kind of attention it deserves, first from James Wood in The New Yorker and now from Elaine Blair in The New York Review of Books. The latter is actually more than a review; it's a brief and startling essay on the place of adultery in fiction today. Of the marriage in Department of Speculation, Blair writes, "How can a relationship so intensely intimate and companionable seem so easily soluble? And what is that other thing, extramarital sex, that has everyone quickly making contingency plans to jump ship? The wife and husband's exemplary, perhaps even ideal, modern marriage is a form of personal gratification—a nonbinding choice that is very much bound up with the ego." When Blair writes about fiction, she writes about life, which in some moods seems to me the only way to do it. Read an excerpt of Offill's novel in issue 207. —Lorin Stein
I don't often have the time to reread these days, but I recently gave a copy of André Maurois's Climates to a friend, and he enjoyed it so much that I was inspired to revisit it. It's an autobiographical novel of love lost, found, and lost again, the kind of book you find yourself giving to all your friends, wanting them to read it immediately so you can marvel at it together. Back when I first read Adriana Hunter's beautiful translation, I felt it mirrored the melancholy of events in my own life. I worried, I think, that it wouldn't resonate as much now. But I was wrong: it is a gripping read, deeply felt, and so full of memorable lines that I wanted to dog-ear every other page. I would have, except that this time it was a library copy—I had long since given mine away. —Sadie Stein
When I rewatched Paul Thomas Anderson's Punch-Drunk Love, I knew, faintly, that the film's odd pudding subplot was based on a true story. But only now have I done my homework. Fun fact: in 1999, a Californian engineer named David Phillips was grocery shopping when he noticed a loophole in a frequent-flier offer on Healthy Choice products. He did the math and discovered that if he could purchase enough cheap Healthy Choice–brand foods, the value of the miles would exceed the cost. So Phillips scoured the region, buying up some twelve thousand cups of Healthy Choice pudding—the cheapest product he could find, at a quarter a cup. He redeemed them for 1.25 million American Airlines frequent-flier miles. This is that rare thing, a Kafkaesque story with a happy ending: a man confronts the warped logic of bureaucracy and emerges victorious. It was shrewd of Anderson to rip it from the headlines. In Punch-Drunk Love, Adam Sandler's character makes the same discovery, and it softens his neurotic, seething violence. He's attuned to the world, we see, just vibrating on a different wavelength. The plot gets at the surreal, godlike power that corporations can wield in our lives, descending from on high to deliver the occasional windfall or catastrophe. As Sandler's character says, "I have to get more pudding for this trip to Hawaii. As I just said that out loud I realize it sounded a little strange, but it's not … You can go to places in the world with pudding." —Dan Piepenbring Read More

ECO-STRUCTURE recently caught up with Jordan Tait, a project architect for the ENJOY house, a joint entry from Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey, and the New Jersey Institute of Technology for the U.S. Department of Energy's 2011 Solar Decathlon.
How is your solar paneling unique?
We think that a solar array has a large impact on a project architecturally that it should inform the geometry of the architecture. We wanted to design an integrated solution in which the performative aspects of the solar array are coupled with the aesthetics, so we optimized the roof angles for solar gain and utilized those roof geometries to create interesting spaces. From a more technical standpoint, we used micro-inverters on each panel, converting DC electricity to AC before it leaves each individual panel, making the system more efficient and safer to install and handle. The entire array was designed around the house's electrical loads and is net zero.
What other sustainable features have you incorporated into your design?
The house's largest sustainable feature is the use of concrete. The thermal mass of concrete will mitigate temperature swings in the house between day and night so that you spend less on heating and cooling the house. We designed the house around as many passive strategies as we could, including cross ventilation, rainwater collection and reuse, daylight strategies, material selection, and orientation. The house then uses active strategies that take advantage of the latest heating and cooling technologies, including a reverse cycle chiller which acts similar to a compressor for our HVAC systems. We also used a solar-thermal system to heat all of the water in the house, including our radiant flooring. The idea was to do as much as we could for the house in terms of passive design before "throwing" technology at the house.
What was the inspiration of your design, and does it display any regional influences?
We wanted to design something that took the utility of a project and exploited it for an aesthetic. This house is meant for a couple retiring at the Jersey shore, so we wanted it be low-maintenance, as the Jersey shore is susceptible to salt water and corrosion, which also informed our decision to go with concrete. In this way, the house responds to regional environmental requirements, which we think is of foremost importantance for the sustainable movement.
How has the new affordability criteria affected the design of your house?
It forced us to get creative in terms of the house's construction. By doing precast concrete it allowed us to take almost all of the trades involved in building a house off-site into a controlled factory environment. Using advanced BIM software, we were able to streamline our construction process by having a 3D model and then extracting all of the necessary drawings and documentation from that model, saving time and money for fabricators and contractors. All of the shop drawings and deliverables come from one central 3D model. By constructing and deconstructing the house in a 3D environment we were able to foresee any site operation problems and address them before we arrived on site. By optimizing the construction process we were able to properly allocate funds back to the architecture and building systems.
What will happen to the house after the Solar Decathlon?
The house is going to be reassembled at the Liberty Science Center in Jersey City, N.J., and will be open for public tours.

Derailed Train Was Going 82 MPH Into Curve In Track
(Yonkers, NY) -- The NTSB says the train in yesterday's deadly derailment in the Bronx was going 82 miles an hour when it jumped the tracks entering a 30 mile-an-hour curve. In a press conference in Yonkers, NTSB member Earl Weener said that's the preliminary indication from event recorders recovered from the wreckage of the train. He also said it's too early to say whether the excessive speed was a result of human error or a malfunction in the braking system. He remarked that the information from the event recorders is still being analyzed and more information will released. New York Senator Chuck Schumer said it's frightening to think how fast the train was going into the curve.

EDMONDS — Eileen Jacoby, 92, stepped up and let the bowling ball drop onto the lane.
It rolled slowly toward the gutter, then curved back toward the pins and gently pushed them all over like dominos.
"Those are rare for me," she said with a beaming smile.
Jacoby did it twice more, in a row, in the same game.
"Are you just trying to show off for me?" said Helen Peterson, 84, one of Jacoby's bowling partners at Robin Hood Lanes on Wednesday.
Perhaps, or maybe the nonagenarian wanted to make the best of her last time at the bowling alley, which is scheduled to close for good at the end of business tonight.
The building's owner, John Guenther, sold the land, at 9801 Edmonds Way to California-based Seven Hills Properties, which plans to tear down the bowling alley and build a Walgreens store and a bank on the parcel.
It will be the first time since 1960 that the property will be home to anything other than Robin Hood Lanes.
"We're so sad. We're in here all the time," said Esther Jones, 13, of Edmonds.
"I'm not crying now, but I will," said Josi Jones, Esther's mom.
Jones, 42, said she's been coming to Robin Hood Lanes since she attended Edmonds High School in the 1980s.
Her son, Ellis, 16, works part time at the bowling alley. Sometimes she drives her kids down, sometimes they ride their bikes.
Now she'll be driving them to Brunswick Majestic Lanes on 164th Street SW and Kenmore Lanes in Kenmore, she said.
With Sunset Lanes in Seattle's Ballard neighborhood closing in 2008 and Leilani Lanes in north Seattle closing in 2005, bowling space has become increasingly tight in the area.
Robin Hood Lanes is almost always packed in the evenings, Ellis Jones said. It's home to more than 20 leagues, and some of them won't have a place to go because of the space crunch, said Charlie Pascoe, one of the owners of the Edmonds bowling business.
Several groups of seniors became regulars at Robin Hood when the alleys in Seattle closed, said Marina Ekonomakis, Robin Hood's office manager.
Peterson and her husband Jack, 87, along with Jacoby and Frank Sidbeck, 76, were among them. All four live in Seattle.
Helen Peterson said they were welcomed with open arms at Robin Hood.
"Everyone who works here is so nice," she said. "They let us bring our own cookies."
Sidbeck said he first bowled at Robin Hood Lanes in 1963. Peterson has been coming off and on for nearly 40 years.
"I've got to find some other form of exercise and I hate to exercise," she said.
On the other end of the age spectrum, "I wonder what the kids are going to do," Jacoby said.
The alley has 20 employees but only a few are full time, Pascoe said.
Some have already found other jobs, cook Cindy Wilson said. She's going to take the summer off and then will have a job at Evergreen Lanes in Everett.
Pascoe has been at Robin Hood Lanes since 1980. He's received some offers from other alleys, he said.
Still, he and others are bitter.
"There's no reason for us to go anywhere, we're making great money, but we didn't own the land and they bought it from underneath us," he said.
Guenther, the building's former owner, could not be reached for comment.
"I think it's kind of silly," said Clay Iverson, 69, who bowls in a couple of senior leagues and volunteers every day at the alley.
"There's a pharmacy down there at QFC and Bartell's (nearby) and they want to build another one here. Just what we need," he said.
Robin Hood Lanes will serve a roast beef special for dinner tonight, the final night.
"I'm trying to keep my head up and a smile on and keep the customers happy like we've been doing for years," Pascoe said.

When Gary DeLong first ran for the Long Beach City Council, he saw a city headed in the wrong direction and didn't find much to like about the way money was being spent.
Today, DeLong is midway through his second term and is running for the 47th Congressional District, which spans Long Beach to western Orange County, while taking on a local political giant, state Sen. Alan Lowenthal, D-Long Beach.
DeLong, 52, sees similarities between the Long Beach of 2006 and the country today.
"There are a few more zeroes," he joked at a recent interview at his telecommunications consulting firm, The RTP Group.
As chairman of the council's Budget Oversight Committee, DeLong has presided over some of the most difficult budgets in the city's history, with revenues consistently flagging behind costs. Officials have balanced deficits of $21.2 million, $20.3 million and $17.2 million in the past three fiscal years.
Though there has been turmoil and heartache - about 500 positions have been cut during the period, services have been reduced, and public safety, the city's largest expense, has borne the brunt - DeLong argues that Long Beach has taken steps toward a better financial future and has enacted large-scale pension reforms.
"We're a much more fiscally solvent city today, with much better financial policies," DeLong said.
Born in Los Angeles, DeLong grew up in Westchester, the son of an AT&T salesman and a homemaker. He earned his bachelor's degree in business at Cal State University Dominguez Hills and received an MBA at the University of Southern California.
He moved to Long Beach in 1986 and joined The RTP Group two years later, as a vice president, before buying the company later.
It now employs three, including DeLong. He also lists annual rental income of at least $660,006 on 12 properties, according to his statement of economic interests with the Fair Political Practices Commission.
A Park Estates resident, DeLong is married and has three daughters.
In this campaign, DeLong has not been a boilerplate Republican, something that has frustrated his opponent's campaign, which attempts to depict DeLong as merely another vote for the Tea Party on Capitol Hill.
DeLong supports gay marriage, is pro-choice and eschews the term "Obamacare," instead using the legislation's name, the Affordable Care Act.
He doesn't support repealing the law.
"I like to see things happen. I'm not going to invest my time and energy into something that's unlikely to happen," said DeLong, who favors tort reform as one way to cut costs in the legislation.
On the economy, DeLong is a more traditional fiscal conservative, speaking of easing regulations and thinking of businesses when considering the merit of proposed legislation.
He advocates closing tax loopholes and does not run from the possibility of eventually raising taxes, though only if all other approaches to closing the national deficit have been exhausted.
"But clearly we're not there yet," DeLong said. "We can make government more cost effective."
As for any politician, reviews of DeLong's tenure in his district are mixed.
Some in the community knocked him for supporting a 2008 infrastructure parcel tax measure. DeLong said he was merely giving voters a choice on the tax, which failed.
He was also taken to task for voting in the council majority to back a land swap at the Los Cerritos Wetlands. Environmentalists claimed the exchange, which flipped 11 acres of city land for 33.7 acres of the wetlands habitat, was not a fair trade for the city.
A vote DeLong cast in favor of Second+PCH, a $320 million retail, condominium and boutique hotel complex proposed at Second Street and Pacific Coast Highway was criticized in part because of a zoning exception that would have been granted to accommodate a 12-story residential tower.
"The problem is, once you give a variance to the code, it sets a legal precedent," said Mike Ruehle, a former 25-year Belmont Shore resident and past president of that neighborhood's residents association.
"Do it the right way, change the code," he continued. "I don't really care if they put 50 stories there. Just do what the code said."
DeLong acknowledged he could have done more to secure some sort of development at the intersection, possibly one with a smaller footprint that would have been acceptable to his colleagues and local stakeholders.
"I could have pushed harder to find a compromise and consensus," DeLong said.
Small as it may seem in the scope of a congressional race, some residents gave DeLong high marks for listening to them on matters such as infrastructure improvements and other neighborhood problems. Such "bread and butter" issues are often among the most important - and visible - to constituents.
"It doesn't have to be a big issue where he gets his name out there," said friend Jane Netherton, CEO of International City Bank.
"Gary takes the things that are meaningful, and he does it."
One area where DeLong draws glowing support is business. Among his many backers are the Long Beach Area Chamber of Commerce and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.
Josh Owens, owner of Ability Tri-Modal Transportation, recalled meeting DeLong several years ago when the councilman was touring the Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles for a clean trucks program.
Owens was concerned about a mandate in the program that would force companies to employ truck drivers rather than use the widespread practice of hiring independent contractors.
"An hour or hour-and-a-half later we had a meeting with port officials," Owens said. The provision was later dropped.
With 11 percent more registered Democrats than Republicans in the 47th District, DeLong is cognizant that his battle is uphill against Lowenthal.
He said he is confident that he can secure the Orange County vote and make enough inroads in Los Angeles County to win.
DeLong has also raised more funds than Lowenthal. As of Sept. 30, Delong had collected $1.2 million during the election cycle to $854,281 for Lowenthal, according to the Federal Election Commission.
The councilman said he is fighting for a level playing field across the country, where everybody has the opportunity to do better tomorrow than they have done today.
"Somehow, we've lost our way. We're going to move money from this group from that group," DeLong said.
"We've gotten into picking winners and losers, and I don't like any of those things."

This causes the body to store water and build up fat in the arteries (cholesterol) as protection from acidic blood.By restoring alkalinity and neutralizing acid production your body can recover quicker, metabolize faster, reduce food cravings and achieve your optimal health. Wheat grass is believed to have many unexplained natural healing qualities. Many of the phytonutrients (plant nutrients) contained in cereal grasses have yet to be identified and it is not completely known how they provide such great benefits to our health. We do know that cereal grasses contain large amounts of chlorophyll (the "blood" of plants), which is amazingly similar to hemoglobin, the molecule that carries oxygen in the blood. Chlorophyll is soluble in fat particles, and since fat particles are absorbed directly in to the blood via the lymphatic system, there is evidence that chlorophyll can also be absorbed easily in this way. Essentially the "blood" of plants is easily absorbed into human blood, which transports nutrients efficiently to every cell of the body. This explains why chlorophyll is so readily assimilated into our blood stream and our bodies are able to utilize its powerful properties. With the addition of Chlorophyll into our diet, we are consuming the very essence of life's energy. Essentially the "blood" of plants is absorbed into human blood, which transports nutrients to every cell of the body. Frequently Asked Wheat Grass Questions: What is wheat grass?Wheat grass is part of the cereal grass family, which includes Wheat Grass, Barley Grass, Oat Grass and Rye Grass. Whole-leaf wheat grass powder is highly alkaline and when grown, harvested and stored under optimal conditions, it is one of the most potent and nutritious deep green leafy vegetables available. Why should I consume wheat grass?There is no debate that consuming dark leafy green vegetables is extremely beneficial for our health.

There have been hundreds of government and private studies that suggest an increase in consumption of green vegetables may reduce occurrence of cancer and disease, and lead to fewer health problems. Given that over 90% of us fall short of getting 5 servings of vegetables every day, Amazing Grass offers an easier and effective way to meet this goal. What do Amazing Grass products do for me?Life's daily functions, such as digestion, stress, exercise, and the consumption of processed foods, coffee or alcohol all form acid. When your body's pH is in the acidic range, it retains water to dilute the acidity and stores fat to protect the body's organs from the acidity.Amazing Grass wheat and barley grass has a high alkalizing effect, which helps restore the balance between acidity and alkalinity in our body. Most processed foods are acidic, and when we consume too many of them, the acidity-alkalinity balance is upset. Our cells cannot effectively function if our body is out of balance. Prolonged acidity can lead to stress of our body's cells and organs and ultimately may lead to illness and disease. Cleansing and detoxifying our body will balance the acidity-alkalinity ratio resulting in rejuvenated cellular activity. After our body's pH levels are balanced, you will notice an increase in energy, stamina and less need for sleep. Consuming Amazing Grass may also lead to a decreased craving for junk food, sweets and may limit overeating. Amazing Grass has many live enzymes that help aid in digestion and other bodily functions.

MONCTON, N.B. — The brother of one of the three New Brunswick Mounties killed in the line of duty told a regimental funeral service Tuesday that the death of Const. Douglas James Larche has forever changed his life and left him feeling an overwhelming despair.
Daniel Larche, a master seaman in the Royal Canadian Navy, spoke of the bond he shared with his brother during his eulogy — a connection now severed.
"I stand here before you with an unbearable sadness, disbelief, rage, because a great man was taken away from us far too soon," he told mourners inside the Moncton Coliseum.
"Never in my worst nightmare did I envision a stitch in time that I would be giving his eulogy."
Police and members of the public filled the hockey arena for the funeral service for Larche, 40, and fellow constables Fabrice Georges Gevaudan, 45, and Dave Joseph Ross, 32.
Ross's brother-in-law, Adrian Vander Ploeg, recalled how the RCMP officer was making dinner but dropped everything, including leaving the barbecue lid up and the garage door open, to be among the first to respond to a report of a gunman last Wednesday evening.
"For those closest to Dave, that barbecue left still open says everything about who Dave was and his devotion to those around him," Vander Ploeg said.
Gevaudan was remembered by Geoffrey McLatchie, his spiritual adviser, as a doting husband and stepfather.
"Fabrice lived a heart-centred life, a life of joy and happiness, a life where he connected to the community in which he lived," McLatchie said.
"He was very comfortable in his own skin and he was his own man."
RCMP pallbearers carried the flag-draped coffins of the slain officers into the arena.
A beige RCMP Stetson sat atop each casket at the front of the service. Danny, a police dog that served with Ross, was led inside.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper acknowledged a "searing grief" that has enveloped New Brunswick, a province he said he's proud to call his ancestral home.
"Together, we struggle for answers," Harper said. "We ask what in God's name happened here and why. We may never know."
Harper said while the justice system will establish what happened, one thing is certain.
"We do not need a verdict to know that what happened here is an outrage," he said.
Assistant Commissioner Roger Brown, the commanding officer of the RCMP in the province, saluted the dead officers as well as constables Eric Dubois and Darlene Goguen, two other Mounties who were wounded in last week's shootings.
"With the eyes of the nation upon us today, I want to publicly say how incredibly proud I am of each and everyone of you," he told the officers in the crowd.
"I only wish," he said, before pausing to choke back tears, "I only wish that I could have told Doug, Dave and Fabrice that in person."
Before the funeral service began, people inside the arena stood and applauded for 45 minutes as police officers from across Canada and the United States arrived to take their places.
In front of a stage were three large portraits of the officers in their dress uniforms.
There were also three Canadian flags on the left and right sides of the stage.
Before the funeral service, a procession of about 2,700 police officers wound its way through the city with pipers and drummers leading the mourners.
Four RCMP officers on horseback followed the 1.6-kilometre-long procession, leading three hearses carrying the dead officers.
Members of the RCMP and municipal police forces, as well as correctional officers and U.S. border patrol officers, were among those who marched to the Moncton Coliseum, which can hold about 7,000 people.
Public transit buses picked up officers in advance of the televised service.
Brenda Jaillet of Oromocto, N.B., said the shooting deaths have touched her husband, a retired RCMP officer.
"It's a brotherhood," Jaillet said outside the coliseum before the service. "What has affected these three members has affected him. It could have been him at any time during his career."
RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson and Gov.-Gen. David Johnston were among the mourners. Opposition Leader Tom Mulcair, Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau and a number of premiers also attended the service, which lasted about three hours.
Six other sites in Moncton and four more outside the city were set up for mourners. A public visitation service held Monday drew hundreds of people.
Gevaudan, Larche and Ross were gunned down last Wednesday evening after responding to a report of a man with firearms in a residential neighbourhood in the northwest area of Moncton. Dubois and Goguen were treated in hospital and released.
The shootings and the ensuing 30-hour manhunt for the alleged killer brought the city of 69,000 to a standstill until an arrest was made just after midnight Friday.
Gevaudan, originally of the Paris suburb of Boulogne-Billancourt, was remembered in his obituary as an advocate of women's rights who adored his wife and "Twin Flame" Angela, and stepdaughter Emma.
The obituary for Larche of Saint John, N.B., says he died while working as a plainclothes officer who "without fear or hesitation ran towards danger to protect his community and family." He leaves behind his wife Nadine and three daughters, Alexa, Laura and Mia.
Ross's obituary says the dog handler died doing what he loved. He is survived by his wife Rachael and son Austin, with another child expected in the fall.
Justin Bourque, 24, of Moncton is facing three charges of first-degree murder and two counts of attempted murder. He is scheduled to be in provincial court July 3.

Im having the same issue, any help would be great apreciated!
surprised that hydra wasn't compiled with libssh capability, hoping someone feels kind enough to include thatCode:# hydra -L user-short.txt -P pass-short.txt 192.168.11.208 ssh Hydra v6.2 (c) 2011 by van Hauser / THC and David Maciejak - use allowed only for legal purposes.

'see the fnords!'
Im having the same issue, any help would be great apreciated!
That's strange, it's working fine here, and I'm using the exact same syntax as you. I'm also running version 6.2. What d.e. and architecture are you on? Im running gnome 32.
Was working fine for me but I upgraded Hydra and rebuilt it anyway with SSH support.

One of the requests we often hear from customers is that they'd like to be able to filter for Tweets from users who match a specific demographic. I'm excited to announce the addition of a new operator to our PowerTrack suite that enables you to do exactly that.
The bio_contains operator enables you to filter for Tweets from users whose freeform Twitter bio contains a specific keyword, phrase or string. The operator does a substring match against the user bio, much like our url_contains operator matches against the contents of the URL string. To use the bio_contains operator, simply add a bio_contains:keyword clause to any rule.
Use Cases
One great use for this operator is to filter for Tweets based on target demographic. For example, say you're analyzing social media for Tide laundry detergent and want to see what moms are saying about the brand following a major marketing campaign. Using the bio_contains operator, you could create a rule to receive Tweets from Twitter users who explicitly state in their bio that they are a mom and mentioned Tide in their Tweet.
User's Bio: "Loving Mom, Wife and Daughter"
Tweet: "I love the new Tide!"
Rule: Tide bio_contains:mom
Another use would be to see all Tweets from a competitor's employees in hopes of gaining some competitive intelligence. In this use case, I might want to receive ALL tweets from users whose bio mentions ABC Corp.
User's Bio: "Product Manager at ABC Corp"
Rule: bio_contains:"ABC Corp"
These are only a few of the possible use cases and we're sure our customers have many others that would put these to shame. We'd love to hear about them!
Important Details
The operator does have some intricacies that it is important to be aware of.
- Unless the bio_contains operator is combined with additional clauses and operators in a rule, the bio_contains operator will match EVERY tweet from a user whose bio contains the keyword or phrase. Depending on the keyword or phrase, this could result in receiving A LOT of Tweets.
- All keywords or phrases containing spaces or punctuation should be surrounded by quotes.
- The operator performs a substring match against a user's bio and ignores word boundaries. As a result, if your keyword or phrase is part of another word or phrase, it will be considered a match. For example, a keyword of "pants" would match a bio containing a term like "#TeamSpongeBobSquarePants". Should this be an issue, we would recommend one of two solutions:
- Add a negation to exclude the matches you don't want
i.e. bio_contains:pants -bio_contains:"#TeamSpongeBobSquarePants"
- Quote common word boundaries in conjunction with the OR operator
i.e. bio_contains:" pants " OR bio_contains:"pants/" OR bio_contains:" pants."
As with most of our work, this new operator started with customer requests. Thanks for the product feedback and keep it coming. Additional documentation of this new operator and others can be found in our online documentation. If you're interested in learning more about how to filter Twitter by bio, please contact firstname.lastname@example.com.

Starting about $26,500, the 2016 GMC Terrain is one of the most affordable crossover vehicles in its class -- a class that also includes the Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4. The interior features a dual-cockpit design with ice-blue ambient lighting and sophisticated, classy appearance touches that make it look much more expensive than it is.
Compare the 2016 GMC Terrain against similar models
The GMC Terrain receives several changes for 2016. Trims now include SL, SLE-1 and SLE-2, SLT and Denali. The front and rear fascias are restyled, with a new grille design for SLE, SLT and Denali trims. LED daytime running are standard on top trims, the center instrument stack is revised, an eight-way power-adjustable passenger seat is offered on the SLT, and available safety technologies on SLE and SLT include blind-spot alert and rear cross traffic alert.
A vehicle's warranty can significant impact your maintenance costs after you drive off the dealer's lot, and it's important to understand the different parts. Typically, a new car warranty includes a Basic warranty, which covers everything except the wear items such as brakes and tires; and a Drivetrain warranty, that covers all the parts that make the car move, such as the engine and transmission
The NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) provides consumers with vehicle safety information based on independent testing, primarily front and side crash rating results, and more recently rollover ratings, to aid consumers in their vehicle purchase decisions.

Below are the available colors for the 2016 GMC Terrain. Select the color to see a close-up view.
The GMC Terrain is considered a compact crossover, but it doesn't look or feel very compact. And it gets fuel mileage rivaling that of a compact car when equipped with the standard four-cylinder engine. An optional V6 brings brisk acceleration. Its blocky styling has hints of Hummer, and cabin space strives to be Yukon.
Terrain is in the same class as the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and the related Chevrolet Equinox.
For 2016, GMC Terrain gets a full update, its first since it was launched as a 2010. Nothing mechanical, just revisions to the exterior (grille, hood, front and rear fascia), interior, and new features such as LED daytime running lights.
The standard engine is a 2.4-liter four-cylinder with direct injection making 180 horsepower and an EPA-estimated 22/32 mpg City/Highway with front-wheel drive, 1 mpg less with all-wheel drive. But there's an available 3.6-liter V6 that makes a whopping 301 horsepower, at the price of 5 city and 8 highway mpg, with its 17/24 mpg score. Both engines use a six-speed automatic transmission. The four-cylinder gets big 18-inch wheels, the V6 gets 19-inch whoppers.
The good news is that you can get the four-cylinder engine even with the upscale Denali model. Not many manufacturers combine their most economical powertrain with their most luxurious trim, but it's something smart shoppers often want. Some folks don't see the need for all that power.
Safety ratings are good, with four stars from NHTSA and Top Safety Pick from IIHS. Curtain airbags and rearview camera are standard, on a long list with all the basic quality features, from power driver seat to USB port. Options (or standard on higher trim levels) include leather, wood trim, remote start, automatic climate control, Pioneer sound system, heated front seats, sunroof, IntelliLink infotainment with Bluetooth, headrest-mounted DVD system and a boatload of debatable driver warning systems with enough beepers to distract you. There's enough available equipment to jack the price of your Terrain to more than $40k, from a base price of barely over $24k.
An Eco mode improves fuel mileage with the press of a button, by turning back the AC and slowing down the transmission and throttle response.
After six years the Terrain finally gets a makeover for 2016, but if you didn't like its square edges before, you won't like them now. However if you liked them before, you might like them more now. The Terrain still has a military look, it's still macho and distinctive, although now it's more modern.
There aren't many curves or bends in the sheetmetal, except maybe for the new dome on the hood and the C-shaped highlights at the corners of the front and rear fascia. The overall theme is bold and upright lines. LED running lights in the front bumper on the uptrim models are an improvement to our national landscape, compared to those bright DRLs in the headlamps that we wish would all go away.
The Terrain is a tidy five-seat package with good space inside. Versatility happens when the rear seat slides fore and aft by 8 inches, giving freedom to the front seats and cargo space in back, as well. The seatbacks fold to add space, but they don't fold all the way, and the cargo floor is high. Maxxed out, the Terrain can carry 64 cubic feet of cargo.
Large vertical vents are the centerpiece of the interior design. It's fine.
There's a big deep glovebox, a phone-sized shelf under the climate controls, and a big deep bin under the wide center console armrest that could hold a laptop. The interior design is tasteful and contemporary (especially the Denali), with low-gloss metallic trim. But some of the trim is disappointing, hard hollow plastic. There's a plastic hood over the touchscreen that doesn't help the touch much.
Can't complain about comfort in a Terrain, not even with the standard fabric seats. The cabin is roomy. There's a lot of head room, knee room and leg room. The bucket seats are wide and very comfortable with mild bolstering, and the rear bench has adequate support. However visibility out the rear is hampered by immovable headrests.
V6 models are silent inside, but four-cylinder versions hear the wind and the gears, the whoosh from the outside and the whirs and ticks in the drivetrain. Actually that ticking sound is coming from the direct fuel injection. The four-cylinder models have a noise-cancellation system embedded in the audio system, also with a few dedicated speakers.
The available IntelliLink connects certain phones to the audio system to get Bluetooth and sources like Pandora. The Terrain uses a 4G LTE data kit that enables your car to create its own private wireless network.
The four-cylinder engine doesn't deliver blazing performance (0-60 in about 9 seconds, which is relatively slow), but it's got plenty of urge for almost every need. It helps to use Sport mode in the slick-shifting six-speed automatic transmission, when you forage for torque at the low rev ranges. No paddles, you shift with the lever, it's fun. The transmission is refined but it judders when you accelerate. In automatic mode, it's smooth and able enough. In Eco mode it labors to save fuel. It can tow 1500 pounds.
With the 3.6-liter V6, the Terrain can tow 3500 pounds, or maybe you fill all five seats a lot, so then the terrific throaty big engine makes sense. Its raps out a muscular burble, and drives the Terrain from zero to 60 in 6.5 seconds, which is quick, about as quick as a BMW X3. But our V6 didn't shift as slick as the four-cylinder, maybe because it was all-wheel drive.
The Terrain has poise on the road that you might not expect from such a buff vehicle. The four-cylinder uses electric power steering, which saves ounces of fuel, while the V6 uses old-school hydraulic. The four-cylinder has a nice settled feel at speed, and we think its electric power steering is one of the better units; but we tend to like the hydraulic setup a little bit more.
The dual-flow shock absorbers use pressurized oil, designed to stiffen the ride on smooth roads and soften it on bad ones, a neat trick if you can pull it off. The brakes are good.
The GMC Terrain has a roomy interior and plenty of cargo space. The four-cylinder yields excellent fuel economy, while the V6 delivers quick acceleration performance. Front-wheel drive is standard, all-wheel drive adds wintry weather capability.

As you know, pricing cars is particularly complicated. One of our duties at CarQuotes.com is to help our customers comprehend this process better.
CarQuotes.com Estimated Target Price is for research purposes only. It reflects a typical, negotiated price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, license and registration, and where applicable, finance charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. The Estimated Target Price is NOT a price quote from CarQuotes.com or any other dealer. If you request a price quote from a dealer via CarQuotes.com displaying an estimated target price, your price may differ.
Invoice is commonly known as the published amount that the dealer paid the manufacturer for the vehicle. This may or may not represent a close relation to the dealer's actual cost, but can be beneficial as a benchmark. This figure is available on many other web sites however CarQuotes.com adds an estimate of local and regional fees from manufacturer to the dealers to this price, which makes it very close to the actual invoice amount for cars at your local dealer.
MSRP is the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price. This is a proposed price only. For most vehicles, the CarQuotes.com price is below this amount. Some high demand cars may be priced over this amount.
The CarQuotes.com Target Price is to be used as a general guide that reflects a typical, market price (before taxes and other customary fees and charges) generally found for the vehicle that you selected. This price is based on our research and estimates of supply and demand in the marketplace. There are many factors that go into the final price of a particular vehicle including local supply and demand. Your final price may differ.
The 'base' price of the vehicle
All options that you select
Base Destination Charges — this is a charge that is added to the base price for every vehicle
Any related Estimated Manufacture to Consumer Cash Rebates. Note: rebates are subject to change at any time. Please make sure to confirm any consumer Cash rebates with your dealer representative at the time of purchase.
Local taxes, license fees and other local fees, such as dealer documentation fees, tire and battery disposal fees, and where applicable, finance charges — these fees are also excluded from Dealer Invoice and MSRP and would be excluded from most advertisements you might see.
Random 'special qualification' rebates — i.e., for new college grads only; for customers trading in a specific type of car. Ask your dealer Representative for more information on 'special qualification' rebates.
The Estimated CarQuotes Dealer Price is an estimate of the pricing presented to CarQuotes members from CarQuotes Authorized Dealers in your area, and is calculated by subtracting an estimated savings value from the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price ("MSRP") as well as a value that relates to invoice for the "ideal vehicle" you configured. Dealer documentation, administrative or similar processing fees are not included in the price estimate. Any vehicle configured on the CarQuotes website is an "ideal vehicle" and may not exist at a CarQuotes Authorized Dealer or any other partner dealer. Each Dealer attempts to match a member's vehicle preferences with the best possible selection from current, in-stock inventory.
The Estimated Savings represents the estimated amount of savings off of MSRP available to you from CarQuotes Dealers for a vehicle consistent with your configured preferences plus any customer incentives currently available. This is also true when it comes to CarQuotes estimated target prices. Your actual savings will depend on several factors including market conditions, the style of vehicle you select, installed options, dealer coverage, and applicable manufacturer incentives. Each dealer sets its own pricing.
In most cases, you must choose between these programs OR a customer rebate or a special manufacturer-to-dealer incentive that may or may not already be included in your CarQuotes.com Target Price. So, your final price may go up if you take advantage of special manufacturer financing. Credit Union members should contact their Credit Union loan department to determine what type of loan and financing options are right for you.
Please note that CarQuotes.com strives to include identified manufacturer incentives within the CarQuotes.com Target Price. CarQuotes.com does not administer these programs, which are subject to and often change without notice. Eligibility for these programs is subject to verification by a licensed auto dealer.
Ask your dealer representative for complete manufacturer program details for your area, and how participation in these programs will affect your price.
The base vehicle is the vehicle before any optional equipment or destination fees have been added. All of the standard features are included in the base vehicle.
This is the total charge for all optional equipment included in the configuration of your virtual vehicle. The Options charge varies depending on whether it is calculated based on the Factory Invoice or MSRP. Options are not included in the base vehicle price and are not considered standard features.
A Regional Fee is the fee a manufacturer charges a dealer to advertise and promote the vehicle in the dealer's market. CarQuotes also includes estimated manufacturer preparation charges (manufacturer charges to the dealer to cover any work done on the car prior to delivering it to the dealership) and fuel charges (the charge for the fuel in the tank when the buyer purchases the vehicle) in this total. CarQuotes attempts to include regional ad fees in its Factory Invoice calculations; other sites at times do not.
These are the amounts that manufacturers charge to deliver a vehicle from the factory to the dealership.
Customer incentives are also commonly known as customer cash or bonus incentives. These incentives are offered by manufacturers as a way of enticing buyers into purchasing a vehicle.
Dealer Invoice price may or may not bear close relation to a dealer's actual cost for the vehicle. In some cases, a cost for a vehicle may be significantly less than the invoice price originally paid for the vehicle. Any difference between invoice price and the dealer's final cost may be caused by many factors including factory refunds, rebates, allowances, or incentives which the manufacturer or distributor may provide to the dealer.
