This article is about Diablo the game/series.
For Diablo the character see Diablo.
Diablo is the point and click RPG series developed by Blizzard that features the devil Diablo as its main villain. The second game in the series, Diablo II, was Blizzard's most popular game in America for many years (until the release of World of Warcraft) and would make a very interesting entrant into a Games Contest.
Diablo made it into the 2006 Series Contest, where there were high expectations for the series in the wake of Warcraft's surprising upset of Grand Theft Auto a week prior. Unfortunately Diablo was quickly swarmed under by the overwhelming popularity of Final Fantasy, which demolished the series in their first round matchup, scoring a bigger blowout that anyone had thought possible.

This a proposal; it is designed to work in conjunction with Tuples_and_Maps and optionally Patterns.
There is an alternative proposal Sequences_are_Tuples, which shares some ideas, but is different.
An array is a function from a sub-range of integer to objects. For now I assume arrays are immutable.
A tuple is an ordered list of items. (An item is any object, value, or array, but a non-singleton tuple is not an item.) Tuples are flat: they do not nest. A tuple with a single item is the same as that item. Tuples are like the previous concept of sequences, but are not indexable. Tuples aren't first-class: you don't (can't?) store a tuple in a variable; they are just intermediate values.
Comma is a binary operator for constructing tuples.
1,2==> a tuple with two values
1,2,3==> a tuple with 3 values
Comma is associative:
1,2,3is the same as
The zero-item tuple is written:
The zero-item tuple is the same as the "void value".
A function argument list is a tuple; more details later. A function can return a tuple:
function divide (x, y) { .... return (quot, rem) }
Tuples can be specified in declarations:
var (q, r) = divide(x,y)
For more details, see Patterns.
The square-bracket operator converts a tuple to an array.
[1,2,3]an array with 3 items
An array is indexable, using the same syntax as function call:
let a = [1,2,3]; a(2) ==> 3
(This allows you to simulate arrays with functions
or vice versa. It also avoids confusingly overloading
[] syntax, which is now just for array *construction*.)
@-operator is the inverse of the
It takes an array and converts it to a tuple:
@([1,2,3]) ==> (1,2,3)
An important usage is concatenation:
[@arr1, @arr2] ==> the concatenation of arr1 and arr2. let arr1 = [2,3,4]; let arr2 = [10,11]; [9, @arr1, 12, @arr2, 99] ==> [9,2,3,4,12,10,11,99]
Range tuples:
2..5 ==> (2,3,4,5)
Commonly used within []:
[2..5] ==> [2,3,4,5] [-1,2..5,10] ==> [-1,2,3,4,5,10]
Currently jfx allows
[1,3..10] ==>
We could allow that, but I'm inclined to not special-case that.
for (id in arr) body
Evaluate arr, then for each item set id to that item, and evaluate body. Result is the *tuple* (not array) of values from body:
[for (i in [3,4,5]) { 2 * i }] ==> [6,8,10]
for (id1 in arr1, id2 in arr2) body
is syntactic sugar for:
for (id1 in arr1) for (id2 in arr2) body
[for (i in [10,20], j in [1,2,3]) (i+j)] ==> [11,12,13,21,22,23] for (i in [1..3], j in [0..i]) (10*i+j) ==> (10, 11, 20, 21, 22, 30, 31, 32, 33)
for (val in arr) while (cond) body
Same, but evaluate cond on each iteration and stop when false:
for (i in [2,4,6]) while (i < 5) (i+10) ==> (12,14)
A while expression:
while (cond) body
Is the same as:
for (dummy in [0 .. infinity]) while (cond) body
The index of the current iteration can be accessed using indexof as in the current spec. Or we camp use "pair syntax" (later).
Back to OpenJFX Compiler.
I am not sure how having tuples makes it easier to write declarative UIs. Perhaps you could provide an example. I'm not sure that having maps is necessary or advisable, either. A common use of something like a map might be lookup in a UI, where we want to find the zip codes for a state. In the example below we just indicate what we want, and leave it up to the compiler or runtime to figure out the best way to implement it.
import javafx.ui.*; class State { attribute name: String; attribute zipcodes: String*; } var states = [ State { name: "VA", zipcodes: [ "90101", "70101", "90101" ]}, State { name: "MD", zipcodes: [ "50101", "20101", "30101" ]} ]; Frame { var edit = TextField { value: "VA" } var currentState = bind select s from s in states where s.name == edit.value var zips = bind select " {z} " from z in currentState.zipcodes width: 400 content: Box { content: [ Label { text: "State:" }, edit, Label { text: bind "Possible zipcodes: {zips}" } ] } }

My CAA Experience as a Professor
When thinking about my experience thus far as a College of Adaptive Arts (CAA) professor, two words immediately come to mind…love and freedom. I think of these words because these ideas can be applied to students, professors, and guardians who are involved with the college. It is truly a great environment with amazing students who do not get this opportunity from other community organizations.
Love is shown at CAA everyday; from the parents, to students, to professors, everyone involved honestly cares about the college and loves what they do. I have a full-time job that is very demanding with my time, so I am unable to work for CAA as much as I would like. When I am able to go to the site, many professors give me a hug and tell me how they would like to see me more. Same goes for the students, and they notice when I am able to be there. This makes me feel the love that is shown for the professors; the students really care and want to learn from their professors.
The freedom to not only express what you, as the professor, think is important to the students, but the students have the freedom to pick and choose whatever course of study they wish. As the professor of Health and Wellness, I like to fill my class curriculum with helpful hints that hopefully students will retain and use in everyday life. Ideas like proper nutrition, hydration, hygiene, and work-out tips. I feel like these are important items for any young adult to know and implement in their everyday life. As a professor, I have the freedom to deliver these concepts and the students will learn, and hopefully, retain this information every quarter. It is a win-win situation.
In sum, my experience as a professor with CAA has been amazing; the love and freedom to try to make a difference in with community with adults who otherwise will not have this opportunity to excel anywhere else. It is a great place which I hope to be a part of for years to come.
Thank you

Perhaps you & your partner are bickering more frequently and damaging your relationship. Maybe your partner has stopped communicating with you & doesn't give you enough attention anymore. Or maybe you've discovered those things you used to think were so adorable or "unique" about your partner are now driving you crazy. Opposite traits often attract us while we are dating, but can become a problem when, for example, night after night your spouse wants to stay home and you need to go out to be around people. Couples therapy can clarify the issues and find a way for both you & your partner to have your needs met. I can help you explore ways to fix your relationship issues.

Marriage Counseling Many couples have presented to me with issues of communication, distrust, priority problems, lack of connection, anger and resentment, and a host of other issues. A marriage that works energizes all of life. A marriage that is broken hinders a balance life and leads to other harmful issues. The majority of my case load is marriage counseling.

I do a lot of work with couples, whether they are married or not. Couples often need help dealing with conflict and making their communication more clear. Many times mates will take comments or relationship issues too personally. Help comes in the form of learning to be more clear and assertive in relating to others. You can discover how to take responsibility for your side of the relationship.

Couple counseling/marriage counseling means addressing his problems/her problems/their problems. That can be quite a task. I have been doing successful couple counseling for over 25 years. Usually the process goes like this: healing hurts, creating the team spirit, learning who we are, making a relationship vision, and finally making the vision work. I do not patch up relationships. I help to recreate new ones from the mess of old ones. Visit me at: www.MarriageCounseling.org

Coast Guard intercepts cocaine smuggling submarine on its way to the US, carrying 12,800 pounds of coke, with street value of $200 million.
A Bay Area Coast Guard crew busted a group of smugglers piloting a covert submarine loaded with 6 tons of cocaine through the open waters off the coast of Central America, officials said Monday.
Four suspected transnational criminal drug runners were aboard the blow-laden submersible on March 3 about 300 miles southwest of Panama when the boat was spotted cruising just below the ocean surface.
A U.S. Customs and Border Protection airplane spotted the vessel and scrambled two interceptor boats with the crew from Alameda, Lt. Donnie Brzuska said.
Once on board, the Coast Guard team found 12,800 pounds of coke with an estimated street value of over $200 million along with a loaded gun in the cockpit. The suspected smugglers were apprehended without incident. The Coast Guard released video of the dramatic open-ocean raid, showing armed officers storming the simplistic craft.
The boat, a self-propelled semi-submersible, is one of scores of makeshift vessels that glide just below the ocean surface to smuggle drugs into the United States. The Coast Guard busted a similar boat southwest of the Mexican-Guatemalan border in January.
Last year the Coast Guard seized more than 319,000 pounds of cocaine from semi-submersible boats and so far this fiscal year, which began Oct. 1, the agency has taken more than 200,000 pounds of drugs from such boats, officials said.

Palit GeForce 9800 GT Sonic 512MB
Final Thoughts
Palits decision to come straight out of the gate with an overclocked model is good news as it helps compete against the HD 4850 at stock clocks a bit better. It is very often we see it right on the tail of the HD 4850, or even passing it.
While the cooler Palit are using these days is probably becoming a bit dated, it still does an excellent job of keeping the card at a reasonable temperature, be it a bit louder than a lot of other aftermarket coolers.
It's also nice to see that Palit have chosen to include a game in the package, which is good news for people who want to install the card and get into something that doesn't look too bad straight off the bat.
Like we've already said, while the 9800 GT might be nothing more than an 8800 GT, the aggressive pricing of the card, the overclocking capability and the availability of the product make it a very strong competitor against the HD 4850. Then you add in the fact that out of the box the card is able to pass the performance of the HD 4850 in a lot of situations and it does become quite appealing.
Palit have done a good job with the 9800 GT and there's no doubt it's going to quickly become a popular card thanks to the aforementioned pros.

Huge Next Generation Fan. Good to be access my favorite episodes whenever I can...
Star Trek: The Next Generation The Complete Series (DVD)by Star Trek
ITEM#: 10765806Nearly two decades after the cancellation of the original STAR TREK television series, creator Gene Roddenberry launched the first of what was to be four phenomenally successful spinoffs with STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION. Set in the 24th century (nearly 100 years after the stewardship of Captain Kirk), the series introduced an all-new cast of intergalactic travellers exploring the farthest reaches out of outer space on a mission to chart new planets and alien civilizations. Ship commander Captain Jean-Luc Picard (Patrick Stewart) anchored the crew of the Starship Enterprise-D with a sensitive reserve that marked a distinct contrast to his trigger-happy predecessor, whose role was assumed by the Kirk-like second-in-command, William Riker (Jonathan Frakes). Rounding out the cast were the Spock-like android Data (Brent Spiner); blind officer Geordi La Forge (LeVar Burton); Klingon officer Worf (Michael Dorn); ship doctor Beverly Crusher (Gates McFadden); her teenage son, Wesley (Wil Wheaton); and psychic psychiatrist Deanna Troi (Marina Sirtis). THE NEXT GENERATION was considered one of the best STAR TREK spinoffs for its intelligent writing and superb sci-fi special effects. This collection presents the series in its entirety.

I love Star Trek and was pleased to finally make the big purchase for the Next Generation dvds. I was, however, very disappointed in the packaging. The discs came in several separate sets of plastic holders. These holders were damaged with several discs not secured in their place. I had to remove all of the discs and put them in another holder. I love the dvds and especially the bonus materials at the end of each season. I would recommend them but would add caution about the packaging.Read More

it's got all the discs, with all the episodes, titles of each episode written the respective disc, so mission accomplished. we've only watched four episodes on two different discs so far; in one episode it skipped ahead a couple chapters and wouldn't allow rewindng to the previous spot. can't swear it's not my dvd player, but it plays all else OK, so.... probably could get better packaging and no wrinkles if you paid full retail, but for the price it hits the spot.Read More

How To Cut A Glass Bottle With Just A Piece Of String
If you're really against the using of plastic containers around the house this looks like a very easy to way to get a clean cut off a beer bottle to use as a toothbrush holder. Basically what needs to be done is to coat a piece of string in acetone (nail polish remover), secure it around the glass bottle and light it up. A dip in cold water at the end of the heating process and a slight tweak yields a beer bottle neatly cut into two.

Research Funding Opportunities
The Progeria Research Foundation Research Grants
The Progeria Research Foundation has brought Progeria to the forefront of research efforts, engaging large, reputable institutions such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and Children's Hospital Boston (CHB) to invest their resources in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome. In addition, NIH has co-sponsored 8 scientific workshops with PRF, and CHB is a partner in the Progeria Clinical Drug Trials.
In our continuing effort to encourage researchers to work in this field, we solicit proposals worldwide and through our scientific workshops. Grants are considered twice per year, usually at the Board of Directors' June and December meetings, with applications due approximately twelve weeks prior.
RFP Listing for PRF Grants – Fall 2017
September 2017: PRF encourages proposals in the areas listed below. Investigators are not limited to applications that address these priorities, but rather are encouraged to use them to better understand the needs of the field at this time.
PRF is seeking proposals that address the following priorities:
- Discovery of biological markers of disease in HGPS that can be assessed in human and/or mouse samples. Highest priority will be given to those markers that can be assayed in easily obtainable human samples such as blood, urine, and cheek swabs. In addition, proposals that explore biomarker relevance to disease process and /or change in markers with disease treatment are encouraged.
- Discovery and/or testing of candidate treatment compounds in both cell based and mouse models of HGPS. Of note, proposals should test compounds in a progerin-producing mouse model as the priority. Comparisons to other mouse models of disease, such as ZMPSTE24 -/- and other non-progerin producing mouse models are acceptable, but only as a comparison to progerin-producing models.
September 2011: PRF Announces New Granting Structure
Since its inception in 1999, PRF had awarded grants to investigators at a maximum of $50,000 per year for up to two years. The funding was intended to allow researchers to produce enough preliminary data to be competitive for greater, longer-term funding by NIH or other large agencies. PRF's Grant Program served Progeria research very well, yielding major advances that have propelled Progeria from a disease about which virtually nothing was known at the cellular and molecular levels, to one that was understood well enough to begin clinical drug trials.
In September 2011, PRF's Medical Research Committee devised a new granting structure. Proposals are now accepted in three categories of differing type, funding levels, and length of time:
- Innovator Awards: 2-year awards of up to $75,000 per year. The aim of the Innovator Award is to allow an investigator to embark on new lines of investigation, and to produce enough preliminary data to be competitive for longer-term funding by NIH and/or other agencies.
- Established Investigator Awards: for senior investigators established either in the field of Progeria or a field that can be directly applied to Progeria. These grants are for up to 3 years and up to $100,000 per year. Renewal for the third year will require that:
a. The Principal Investigator demonstrate substantial progress and commitment to the field, for example by applying for at least one major grant to continue Progeria work. Examples of major grants include NIH RO1 or Ellison Senior Scholar funding.
b. The Principal Investigator has submitted a manuscript on the Progeria work accomplished in the first two years.
- Specialty Awards: for smaller, more technology-driven projects, e.g., sequencing, screening potential drugs, obtaining cell lines (including IPSCs,) and preparation of antibodies. Funding amounts will range from $5,000-$50,000 and the length of the project must be 1 year or less. Funding amount and duration may increase for a project that addresses a very high and immediate need to The Progeria Research Foundation.
Please click here for the grant application, deadlines and more detailed guidelines.
Grants are considered twice per year, usually at the Board of Directors' June and December meetings, with applications due appoximately twelve weeks prior.
*Grant Application deadlines are subject to change. Please email us or check back on this site periodically for the most up-to-date information.
Are you looking to enter the field of Progeria research?
Please note that The Progeria Research Foundation does not directly conduct research projects. Rather, we fund some of the research, which takes place at various institutions and hospitals around the world. Thus we have no control over the personnel involved in this work, including interns, post-docs, etc. However, on our website you will find links to those PRF is currently funding at our Grants Funded page and you are welcome to contact them directly to inquire as to whether or not a position is available. In addition, we suggest you review the published scientific papers that many scientists have written at our Scientific Publications and Whats New in Progeria Research pages. Perhaps you can contact some of these researchers to inquire about a position in their labs.
Best of luck with your search, and we hope you DO end up working in this fascinating field!

text: Sangeeth Sivans forthcoming horror venture Click boasts of a not so regular run-of-the-mill haunting, but the music has a melodious touch that goes with the theme of the story.The lyricist of the film Shabbir Ahmed explains, "So far I have written songs pertaining to almost all genres like peppy number You are my Love (Partner) or Hum Tumhe Nighoan Mein (Garv). However, Click gave me an opportunity to pen down what I have been longing to write- beautiful shayari (poetry).He goes on to add, "The most beautiful song is Rubai which defines the relationship of unconventional yet beautiful pair of Shreyas Talpade-Sada.So, when asked how difficult was it to write a song on such an unconventional on-screen pair, the lyricist says, "Its very important for lyricist to observe the actors for whom he/she is writing the song. As soon as lyricist is well-versed with the body language and nature of the actor, things become easy.

Not sure if she got dropped or she left. But all of that is old news and all the blogs are running with the story now. She hasn't been represented by FORD Models for a while now. Atleast as early as May or June of 2010 or so (or maybe a couple months before that) this went down. I tried booking her for something earlier in the year and one of Ford's reps in New York told me "Sorry, but we no longer represent Ms. Rose." Which would've meant she had something like a one-year contract or something with them and it just expired and/or wasn't renewed. So not sure why all this info is coming out now (cough, Page Six, cough), but yeah, ya'll late bloggers. Leave that girl alone. She's better off.
Either way, look out for her reality show coming soon.

I wish there was an easy way to get larger breasts with vitamins or food supplements, but there is no such diet that will do this.

Breast size
Gaining weight will not necessarily increase the size of your breasts that much. Don't try to gain weight. You will regret it and then find it is hard to lies the weight. And definitely don't gain weight with the notion that you will have liposuction and have the fat injected into the breasts. That's a real mistake.

Larger Breasts by Weight Gain #breastimplants
You don't. One has nothing to do with the other. Sure if you gain 50 pounds or lose 50 pounds you may see a change in your breast size. From the question I gather you want more augmented breasts but do not want to have implants or fat transfer. So, there is no way to control having bigger breasts or smaller breasts utilizing just a diet.
How do I get bigger breasts naturally?
Larger breasts by weight gain
Good question- weight gain directed to the breasts is not a very controllable way to increase size. There is tremendous variability of fat deposits between different people and breast tissue itself does not increase. Only the fat tissue around the breast tissue. See a board-certified plastic surgeon in person for an exam if you have more questions. Good luck
You can't.
Good luck to you!

BRADENTON, Fla. -- The stars will be out in Bradenton this weekend -- the stars of the Florida State League, that is. McKechnie Field is playing host to the league's annual all-star game, with a weekend filled with festivities.
What do Derek Jeter, Joe Mauer, and Ryan Howard all have in common? Yes, they're MLB superstars, but years before that they all played in the Florida State League All-Star Game.
Josh Bell of the Bradenton Marauders is participating in this year's game and hopes to achieve the same kind of success as those three players. "It's going to be a great game to watch; really fun. All the best players in our league, future all-stars of Major League Baseball."
Bell will have a loyal following in the stands. This year's game is being played Saturday on Bell's home field at McKechnie Field in Bradenton. "It's going to be fun to play in front of the home crowd this year and perform for them."
Around this time a year ago, McKechnie got the nod. Marauders representatives knew it would only be a matter of time, due to the stadium's recent multi-million dollar renovation project, which included new seating, a boardwalk and much more.
"Not only is this going to be a showcase where we bring in all of the best players from around the league, but we are going to get fans from all around the region to see what a premier facility this is and how Bradenton puts on a show," says Marauders radio broadcaster Nate March.
The weekend kicks off with a VIP Gala Friday night at 5pm at the South Florida Museum. The event will be attended by players, coaches, and league executives, and will be emceed by ABC 7's Max Winitz.
Also Friday night is the Pirates and Princesses 5K run, which begins and ends on Old Main Street beginning at 5:30pm.
Saturday features a Home Run Derby at McKechnie Field. Gates open at 4:30pm with autograph sessions and live music, and the derby begins at 5:30.
The All-Star game will follow the derby, at 7:05pm. Post game activities include fireworks and a concert by the band Save The Radio.
Fore more information on the events, visit the FSL website.

It's quite enlightening to watch liberals and those who espouse socialist views have a head-on collision with reality. The liberal bastions of public media - large daily newspapers - are now into union busting.
"Hearst Corp., owner of the San Francisco Chronicle, has threatened to shut down the paper unless unions agree to major staff cuts and The New York Times Co. has threatened to close the Boston Globe unless unions there do the same."
Shamey, shamey. Story here.
The Market always rules - eventually. The Market does not debate, it just does.
(By the way, just to be clear, I support their right to protect their intellectual property. However, these are the same folks who expect other businesses to bend to union demands. "What's good for the goose . . ." Consistency is the issue here.)

A collective term for a hoodlum attempting to gain status in the family.
The outsider is gradually brought into a family through a series of jobs, starting with small crimes, then be present at bigger crimes, then being an accomplice, then performing the crime.
It is not an official position in La Cosa Nostra but more of an umbrella term for people doing jobs who are "on the outs" with a family but it also is used to refer to civillians from time to time.
Outsiders usually perform simple tasks but do a lot of "heavy lifting" eg. packing stolen goods into a truck, threatening a shopkeeper to earn some protection money and then pass their percentage to who they report to, they are called "outsiders" because they are "on the outs", family business dealings are not discussed with them, it's only once they have worked their way up to associate status that they are given the chance to make their bones.
Any hit for an outsider often puts them in a position of being a disposable hitman and they may not survive to collect their pay for the job or they may very well be executed by the person who requested them to perform the hit in an attempt for the person who brokered the hit to tie up all loose ends.
When somebody "makes their bones" a term used in La Cosa Nostra for the first murder one commits under orders, often a soldato will take a new associate with them to "see how it's done", after that, the associate shall have to be an accomplice with something simple like cleaning up the scene of the hit, moving a body, then it would be something like assisting in executing somebody and finally, to be given their own hit to perform.

Woocommerce adds stuff to random carts Woothemes will not fix.
I have been a woocommerce customer for almost two years. In the time I have been working with the product I feel that the service has deteriorated. They have plugins that they only partially support, or the plugin does not work the way its intended unless you add code. (for example sending text messages needs a specific format, but the plugins don't enforce the customer adds the +1 or other area/region formatting.) The email on restock or waitlist plugin fails after sending 38 emails. I was told I needed a "high speed mail server" which was not included in the docs, so a popular product that has 100+ user waitlist will fail and I have to go in and send a bulk email out of outlook. I can go on all day but the worst part is that woocommerce has a way of adding random products to peoples carts.
I am getting hostile emails telling me I am scam artist and other nasty language because when they checkout more is in the card than they paid for. I have tested this many times, they have a serious unaddressed issue. As the traffic spikes the woocommerce system add items to their carts. I have built a successful business online and I am stuck in the cart system that both WPengine (That woo team pushes with an affiliate link) and WooCommerce don't want to fix. Each one blames the other. I am so sick of this. I have opened quite a few tickets and the blame game has to stop. I have an alexa traffic rank of 97,000 I have thousands of customers and tons of sales and now developing a reputation of being a scammer because of the frequency that woocommerce falls flat. I have lost 6 loyal customers. This is wrong and I will continue to ask woocommerce to fix their product. The real issue is Woocommerce works great on sites that have little traffic but you grow it will fall apart and even spending a few hundred on plugins will not get support to fix thier buggy plugin. I also rented a VPS from Liquid Web and without caching I can add stuff to my cart, walk over very quickly to my wifes PC and open the site and guess what the same stuff is in her PCs cart. WPegnine claims they have a template for WC enabled sites that stops caching but it does not work.
Fix your product! If your issue is with WPEngine stop promoting them so aggressively.

Premium Reds 15 on the 15th
Your Premium Reds 15 on the 15th includes
Anta da Serra Red Blend (x2)
A blend of native grapes to the country of Portugal, Anta De Serra is for red wine lovers who love lush bold fruit with a full mouthfeel, while retaining the characteristics of the terroir. What you get is deep colored wine with full robust flavors of blackberry, raspberry, and cherry, paired perfectly with firm tannins and a soft, but full, mouthfeel.
Cachil Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva (x2)
Colchagua Valley, Chile is home to many amazing wineries producing gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon, just like Cachil. This reserve offering from one of the premier Cabernet Sauvignon producing regions of Valle Central boasts beautiful flavors from this stunning vintage. Currants, raspberry, and cassis take the lead, followed by hints of cocoa. Enjoyably lighter in body than most cabs from this region, it has a medium body and a smooth silky finish. Chile is known for being innovative with wine over the last decade and this is a great example of why wines in from this region are a perfect fit for most occasions. It's no wonder why Colchagua Valley was named Wine Region of the Year in 2005 by Wine Enthusiast Magazine.
Della Flora Nero d'Avola (x2)
Italy is home to almost 350 different wine grape varieties, giving wine lovers a plethora of styles to choose from. One of our favorites, Nero d'Avola from Sicily has found a home in our cellar. These wines are bold in nature. After all, Nero d'Avola also is known as the "Black Grape of Avola." When crafted well like the Della Flora Nero d'Avola, they yield a bold wine with lots of dark blackberry fruits, plum, sweet and smoky nuances and hints of spice. This combination in perfect harmony is a blessing on our palates with its smooth and sultry finish. Enjoy this wine with hearty stews, gamy meats, and our favorite, bacon buffalo cheeseburgers.
Camartina Carménère (x2)
Chile's Central Valley is located directly in between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean. Its residents can ski in the morning and then catch the sunset down by the water in the evening. Its central location provides a lifestyle balance that we all crave to have, being able to live somewhere amazing, and work somewhere equally as stunning. The attitudes of the crafters of this amazing wine shows profoundly in the 2014 vintage of Camartina Carmenere. The wine displays a violet red color and the aromas of fresh red fruit—raspberries and cherries—along with notes of herbs and toasted coffee beans. The aromas follow through on the palate with red fruits, spices and bittersweet chocolate. So no matter which side of the country you live, whether it be coastal or inland, you can find joy in this fun and flexible wine from Chile. Serve this wine with a zesty pork dish, or a hearty tomato seafood stew.
Geja's Private Reserve Big Bold Red (x2)
As the name says, this is a wine big on flavor and bold, with ripe flavors floating over a fine structure of natural fruit acidity. If you haven't already tried it, there's no better time than now. The Geja's Big Bold Red is a feisty, impudent red with prominent, aggressive tannins that are fresh and forward. This is one wine you can enjoy every day of the week at a price that's hard to beat.
Longchase Vintners Cabernet Sauvignon (x2)
A 2013 Vintage Cabernet, this wine has flavors of cherry, raspberry and cinnamon with a medium finish and a light mouth feel. This is a wine that can be enjoyed every day no matter what you are doing, ordering pizza from your favorite neighborhood joint or grilling with lots of friends.
Pico Malbec (x2)
Its flavor profile is a salute to the homeland of Malbec, Cahors in France. It drinks profoundly, with dark fruits such as blackberry with herbaceous notes, and that nice overlay of smoky, destined to be best friends with many grilled meats. It's full bodied, has a personality, and has a finish that can please the wine drinker in all of us.
Villa Amoroso Toscana Rosso (x1)
There is something inherently special about the winemaking region of Tuscany. The wines possess a charismatic profile found in this central Italy region. What makes them so special? Some say it is the unique flavors that come from the vines. Others say it's the balance and full-flavor but lean attributes of the wine that is crafted here. For us, we love that it is a food lover's wine. The contrast of tart cherry, plum, and strawberry fuse together with oregano, smoke, tobacco alongside elements of clay from the soil. Separate, they are unique, but together they are one. That is why we are so ecstatic with our Villa Amoroso Toscana Rosso from the Tuscany region. Villa Amoroso hits every flavor note we expect, leaving us to want nothing else, except for maybe a few more bottles.

LOS ANGELES (AP) A big share of the financial burden of raising Nadya Suleman's 14 children could fall on the shoulders of California's taxpayers, compounding the public furor in a state already billions of dollars in the red.
Even before the 33-year-old single, unemployed mother gave birth to octuplets last month, she had been caring for her six other children with the help of $490 a month in food stamps, plus Social Security disability payments for three of the youngsters. The public aid will almost certainly be increased with the new additions to her family.
ASSISTANCE: Octuplets' mom receives food stamps
SPOKESWOMAN: Cash didn't motivate mom of octuplets
Also, the hospital where the octuplets are expected to spend seven to 12 weeks has requested reimbursement from Medi-Cal, the state's Medicaid program, for care of the premature babies, according to the Los Angeles Times. The cost has not been disclosed.
Word of the public assistance has stoked the furor over Suleman's decision to have so many children by having embryos implanted in her womb.
"It appears that, in the case of the Suleman family, raising 14 children takes not simply a village but the combined resources of the county, state and federal governments," Los Angeles Times columnist Tim Rutten wrote in Wednesday's paper. He called Suleman's story "grotesque."
On the Internet, bloggers rained insults on Suleman, calling her an "idiot," criticizing her decision to have more children when she couldn't afford the ones she had, and suggesting she be sterilized.
"It's my opinion that a woman's right to reproduce should be limited to a number which the parents can pay for," Charles Murray wrote in a letter to the Los Angeles Daily News. "Why should my wife and I, as taxpayers, pay child support for 14 Suleman kids?"
She was also berated on talk radio, where listeners accused her of manipulating the system and being an irresponsible mother.
"From the outside you can tell that this woman was playing the system," host Bryan Suits said on the "Kennedy and Suits" show on KFI-AM. "You're damn right the state should step in and seize the kids and adopt them out."
Suleman's spokesman, Mike Furtney, urged understanding.
"I would just ask people to consider her situation and she has been under a tremendous amount of pressure that no one could be prepared for," Furtney said.
A call to Suleman's publicist Mike Furtney was not immediately returned.
In her only media interviews, Suleman told NBC's "Today" she doesn't consider the public assistance she receives to be welfare and doesn't intend to remain on it for long.
Also, a Nadya Suleman Family website has been set up to collect donations for the children. It features pictures of the mother and each octuplet and has instructions for making donations by check or credit card.
Suleman, whose six older children range in age from 2 to 7, said three of them receive disability payments. She said one is autistic, but she has not disclosed the other youngsters' disabilities, and refused to say how much they get in payments.
In California, a low-income family can receive Social Security payments of up to $793 a month for each disabled child. Three children would amount to $2,379.
The Suleman octuplets' medical costs have not been disclosed, but in 2006, the average cost for a premature baby's hospital stay in California was $164,273, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. Eight times that equals $1.3 million.
For a single mother, the cost of raising 14 children through age 17 ranges from $1.3 million to $2.7 million, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, who is struggling to close a $42 billion budget gap by cutting services, declined through a spokesman to comment on the taxpayer costs associated with the octuplets' delivery and care.
Suleman received disability payments for an on-the-job back injury during a riot at a state mental hospital, collecting more than $165,000 over nearly a decade before the benefits were discontinued last year.
Some of the disability money was spent on in vitro fertilizations, which was used for all 14 of her children, Suleman said. Suleman said she also worked double shifts at the mental hospital and saved up for the treatments. She estimated that all her treatments cost $100,000.
Fourteen states, including California, require insurance companies to offer or provide coverage for infertility treatment, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. But California has a law specifically excluding in vitro coverage. It's not clear what type of coverage Suleman has.
In the NBC interview, Suleman said she will go back to California State University, Fullerton in the fall to complete her master's degree in counseling, and will use student loans to support her children. She said she will rely on the school's daycare center and volunteers.

It's Sweet to be King: 8 King Cake Recipes for Every Mardi Gras Celebration
Mardi Gras celebrations should be filled with lots of beads, some fun masks and a Hurricane Cocktail (or two). But make sure you save some room for dessert, because you can't celebrate Mardi Gras without a King Cake!
Mardi Gras celebrations should be filled with lots of beads, some fun masks and a Hurricane Cocktail (or two). But make sure you save some room for dessert, because you can't celebrate Mardi Gras without a King Cake!
We'll take any excuse to celebrate with cake. And since Mardi Gras has it's own quintessential cake, what better way to celebrate than with King cake -- and lots of it! King Cake is a sweet, decadent treat made with Danish-type dough braided together and topped with icing. Traditionally, King Cakes also include a plastic baby figurine underneath or inside (hello, choking hazard), and whoever finds the baby in his or her slice is promised a year of prosperity. Or a piece of cake that tastes like plastic.
Even if you're not interested in going the whole 9-yards on Mardi Gras (you can certainly skip the mini baby figurine thing), you must try a King Cake if only to celebrate one of the most iconic traditions associated with Mardi Gras. We've rounded up our favorite King Cake recipes that we've found – and some variations on the dessert – for a fun and festive Mardi Gras celebration.
If You Want the Real Deal: Traditional King Cake
There's a reason why the traditional King Cake has become the focus of many Mardi Gras celebrations. You can try imitations, but nothing beats the original. Get the recipe from My Recipes.
If You're Short On Time: Quick King Cake
We get it, we get it; you're probably too busy drinking hurricanes and throwing beads to make a big fancy cake. Cut some corners (and still whip up something delicious) with this Quick Mardi Gras King Cake recipe from Betty Crocker.
If You're Cutting Calories: Lighter King Cake
King Cake is basically all sugar and butter. Cut some calories with this lightened up recipe from She Knows.
If You Want a Boozy Option: King Cake Jell-O Shots
OK, this one doesn't really count as a cake, but look how cool these are? Layeres of colored gelatin spiked with vodka are made even sweeter with some vanilla frosting and colored sugar sprinkles. Get the recipe from Tablespoon.
If You Want an Easy Non-Traditional Treat: King Cake Icebox Cake
A cake that's just as fun to make and assemble as it is to eat. Even the little kids can get involved in this King Cake Icebox Cake Recipe from Food Family Finds. The colored sugar really makes it stand out.
If You're More of a Pie Person: Susie's King Cake Pie
Some people are cake people, and others are pie people. For the pie-loving folks, Susies King Cake Pie – which includes nutmetg, cinnamon, vanilla and dark rum – is the ideal dessert to whip up for Carnival. Get the how-to on Nola.com.
If You Prefer Bite-Sized: Mini King Cupcakes
Cupcakes are always a win, especially when they come in the form of mini cupcakes. Bring the big taste of king cakes to a bite-sized treat with these Mini King Cupcakes from My Recipes.
If You're Feeling Fancy: Mardi Gras Macarons
The classic French dessert has become quite trendy in the last few years. If you're on board with the macaron boom (and have the time and patience to make them yourself), then check out this recipe from HGTV.com.

Publishers Weekly - Publisher's WeeklyIn her bestselling Complete Book of Edible Landscaping , Creasy introduced edible landscaping as an alternative to the purely ornamental. Now she celebrates the marriage of gardening and cooking in lively text and full-color photographs. Useful to cooks and gardeners alike, her book profiles individual gardeners and cooks, famous (Seppi Renggli of the Four Seasons) and not (Jan Blum, an heirloom vegetable gardener in Idaho); discusses how some began and maintain their gardens; and offers recipes for what they cook with fresh produce. The range of expertise Creasy discovers is impressive. No garden featured is merely pretty or just practicalshe proves the beauty and utility of even the humble potato (available in blue, red and white varieties), as well as the newfound potential of edible flowers. All told, Creasy discusses 17 theme gardens based on types of vegetables and flowers (e.g., herbs) and the cuisines of regions and countries. Her unusually comprehensive source listings of seed companies, growers' organizations, etc., along with her encyclopedia of ``superior vegetables,'' could stand alone as an invaluable reference work. (Oct.)

In news that will likely surprise few but nevertheless excite many, the announcement was made today that this year's Halloween Horror Nights event at Universal Studios will once again feature a "Walking Dead"-themed walkthrough, as it has for the past few years.
As executive producer/make-up man Greg Nicotero explained in the announcement video, which you'll see below, the maze will be based around the show's recently completed fourth season, allowing you to relive and actively take part in its most memorable moments and scenarios.
Universal Studios' "Halloween Horror Nights" events have a more than 20-year history of creating incredibly entertaining, horrifying Halloween experiences that are consistently rated the nation's best. The events on each coast feature highly-themed, disturbingly real, haunted mazes based on everything from films to nightmares – and streets filled with hundreds of specially trained "scareactors."
The "Walking Dead" maze will be coming to both Universal Orlando and Universal Hollywood, and Halloween Horror Nights 2014 will kick off sometime in September, running through Halloween. Head over to the Halloween Horror Nights website to learn more.
Though I'm willing to bet that those who attend the event every year are probably hungry for something a little different, I personally am quite happy to see "The Walking Dead" returning to this year's Halloween Horror Nights because I'm actually attending for the very first time in my life. One of those bucket list goals I've been meaning to knock off for many years, and I can't wait to take the trip to Terminus!
From the Press Release:
After rave reviews from fans on both coasts, Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood are bringing back AMC's "The Walking Dead" to Halloween Horror Nights for an unprecedented third consecutive year. Horror-hungry fans will experience all-new terrifying mazes inspired by Season 4 of the critically-acclaimed, Emmy Award-winning television series.
This year's bone-chilling mazes will place guests at the heart of a harrowing journey to seek sanctuary at Terminus, an elusive destination that promises community for all. Mirroring the terror that befell the residents of the West Georgia Correctional Facility, now overrun by savage walkers, the experience will send guests fleeing from the fallen prison into unknown territory as they once again stage a desperate battle for survival against flesh-eating walkers and ruthless humans.
"The Walking Dead" is based on the graphic novel written by Robert Kirkman and published by Image Comics. The series tells the story of the months and years after a zombie apocalypse. It follows a group of survivors, led by sheriff Rick Grimes, who travel in search of a safe and secure home. "The Walking Dead" is the number-one show on television for adults 18-49. AMC's "The Walking Dead" returns for Season 5 this October.
"This has been an incredible collaboration, and I am thrilled to be working once again with the creative teams at Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood to bring the world of 'The Walking Dead' to our dedicated fans," said Greg Nicotero, Executive Producer and Special Effects Makeup Supervisor for the series. "I can't wait for visitors to experience first-hand some of the iconic moments from Season 4 in what will be the biggest, most exciting and frightening 'Walking Dead' maze to date."
About Universal Orlando Resort's Halloween Horror Nights:
Universal Orlando's maze will be the largest maze ever created at Halloween Horror Nights. It is literally double the experience and will feature more scareactors in one single haunted house than ever before. Guests will encounter iconic scenes from Season 4 of the hit show – beginning at the prison, fans will enter the cell block where the infection began, escape into the massive Big Spot location with a crashed helicopter ripping through its ceiling, and journey to the dilapidated country club overrun with walkers. These and other incredibly immersive environments culminate to the maze's finale taking you to the End of the Line – Terminus. This year's maze will be an entirely new experience, featuring never-before–seen walkers and brand new scares.
"Bringing a horror property back for a third year in a row is always a decision that is carefully considered. Fortunately, 'The Walking Dead' is unlike any horror brand around. Its appeal spreads across so many types of viewers. Hardcore and casual horror fans alike are watching week after week, and Season 4 offered many new and unique environments and walkers," said Michael Aiello, Creative Development Director for Universal Orlando's Entertainment team. "This year we are taking this partnership to the next level, with a monstrous soundstage maze and a scope that is bigger and badder than anything we've ever done in the history of our event."
About Universal Studios Hollywood's Halloween Horror Nights:
This year Universal Studios Hollywood will bring multiple interactive experiences from "The Walking Dead" to life throughout its "Halloween Horror Nights" event. "The Walking Dead: The End of the Line" will channel the many iconic scenes from Season 4 into a new maze, inviting guests to encounter the terror they viewed from afar. From infected walkers whose bleeding eyes struck a new chord of fear throughout the prison to the walker-filled tunnel on the crusade to Terminus, the ominous attraction will evoke a countless barrage of distressing images that will traumatize guests over and over again. The contemporary urban city streets, towering skyscrapers, brick-faced facades, and industrial exterior movie sets that make up Universal Studios' world-famous production facilities will serve as the backdrop location for this all-new, frighteningly realistic maze. Swarms of walkers will also reawaken in an all-new terrifying scare-zone located adjacent to the maze.
The engrossing cult favorite television series will seep into other parts of Universal's backlot with predatory walkers prowling the secluded wooded areas of the movie studio. "Terror Tram: Invaded by the Walking Dead" will send guests on the daunting path to Terminus, interspersed with landmarks and walkers from Season 4, including the "burned moonshine cabin," "charred walkers," and "mud walkers."
"'The Walking Dead' is a once in a lifetime property that has greatly expanded and redefined the horror genre," said John Murdy, Creative Director at Universal Studios Hollywood. "Our fans are as intense as the walkers when it comes to new interactive experiences that put them at the heart of the show, so it's our responsibility to create characters and environments that are as authentic to the series as possible. Working in partnership with the show's Executive Producer and four-time Emmy Award-winner, Greg Nicotero, is incredibly rewarding. His expertise, combined with our vision, delivers the most outstanding and credible 'Walking Dead' experience anyone could imagine, outside of being on the show."

Very happy overnighter
Just stayed overnight but had absolutely no complaints about this guest house, location is excellent, service was terrific and room and food were smashing.
Most unprofessional host we have ever encountered over many years of travel.
We were made to feel we were causing him a great inconvenience by arriving at 1pm instead of the 2pm check in and were told in no uncertain terms that you are not allowed into your room before 2pm. Fair enough but no need to have such an unpleasant attitude.
