The nationwide, and local, phenomenon pools the contributions of more modest donors into big philanthropic power.
By Carolyn Davis, Inquirer Staff Writer | 2-1-12
Most people don't have the bulging bank accounts of Bill Gates or Oprah Winfrey, even if they share a powerful desire to change the world by donating money.
That is where a philanthropic geometry known as giving circles, groups of people who band together to get the most out of their charitable donations, is filling a niche.
"It allows me the satisfaction of knowing that my contribution is being pooled together with a lot of similar-minded individuals and helping to make a real positive impact on the Asian American community," says Michelle Gollapalli, chair of the Asian Mosaic Fund, whose members live in the Philadelphia region. "Alone, I could never do that."
Giving circles are a phenomenon nationwide - other local ones include Women for Social Innovation, Impact100 Philadelphia, and Dining for Women. Nationwide, the first count of giving circles, done in 2004 by the Forum of Regional Associations of Grantmakers, found about 200, while a current estimate puts them at 550.
"Emerging across America in recent years, giving circles are typically small groups of donors who put a few hundred to a few thousand dollars (though in some cases much more) into a pool of funds, teach themselves about effective forms of philanthropy and issue areas, and decide collectively how to allocate their money," writes Laura Arrillaga-Andreessen in her book, Giving 2.0: Transform Your Giving and Our World.
They are a new twist on an old concept, says Lucy Bernholz, a visiting scholar at Stanford University's Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society.
And how long has that idea of banding together for a social good been around?
"Probably as long as people have been around, as long as there has been money," Bernholz says. "The roots are much more in mutual aid societies and cemetery societies where a community of people would get together and chip in money."
Nowadays, giving circles target a wide range of issues, including education, the arts, and economic development. Members are just as diverse in their age, background, and income level, says Bernholz, who writes the blog Philanthropy 2173 (the name refers to the year in which Woody Allen's movie Sleeper is set - Bernholz is making the point that giving is a long-term activity).
They also could be a citizenship stimulant. A 2009 report by the Forum of Regional Associations of Grantmakers and the University of Nebraska at Omaha School of Public Administration, "Impact of Giving Together," found that giving-circle members ended up more engaged in charity and in their community - though circles may attract that type of person.
The Asian Mosaic Fund began in 2009, says Mailee Walker, 37, one of the founding members. Even though there were groups at the time for Asian professionals, when it came to philanthropy, "many of us felt invisible," says Walker, of Ardmore.
Its founders wanted to spread out their charitable support by addressing needs in the region's Asian community and developing local Asian philanthropic leaders.
Like other giving circles, members decided the contributions required and the grant-making process.
To be able to vote on which applicants should get grants, a member has to give at least $250 a year. That amount was deemed affordable, yet large enough to make the giver take an interest in how it would be used.
"The giving process would be a lot more thoughtful," says Roxborough resident Gollapalli, 39.
Some groups use all the money they collect for a single grant. That's the policy of Women for Social Innovation, which gave one grant last year for $15,000 to a program that helps mothers teach their preteen and teen daughters to make good life decisions.
"We felt that was a substantial amount of money that would allow someone to realize a dream," said Andrea Anania, 59, of Bryn Mawr, who helped start that giving circle about four years ago. Its members include lawyers and foundation executives.
For Philadelphia's chapter of the national giving circle Impact100, the idea "is for at least 100 women to donate $1,000 each and pool their contributions to make very large grants to nonprofit organizations," says Ellan Bernstein, 53, copresident of the local circle. Last year, the group gave a $100,000 grant to the West Philadelphia Alliance for a project that revives school libraries.
The Asian Mosaic Fund takes a different approach, giving several, smaller grants to aid more groups. Last year it gave grants of about $5,100 to five organizations.
One of the 2010 grantees was the nonprofit Asian Arts Initiative in Philadelphia, which used its $5,750 from the fund to expand its Youth Arts Workshop, including holding a program at the Philadelphia School District's South Philadelphia High School, which was the site of widely publicized violence between Asian and African American students in 2009.
"We saw a way to help bring kids together," said Pat Ma, the arts initiative's associate director.
The grant also helped finance a mural project at the Chinese Christian Church & Center in Chinatown. That's the kind of ripple effect that giving-circle members love.
Because they are small operations, giving circles usually disburse their money through community foundations or a larger, parent nonprofit group. The Mosaic Fund uses the Philadelphia Foundation to administer and monitor its grants.
Out of about 1,000 funds established by others through the Philadelphia Foundation, only a handful are giving circles, says president R. Andrew Swinney.
He likes how the circles ease people into the world of giving when they are in "the accumulation-of-wealth stage and don't have a lot of disposable income."
Tough money times probably won't be a problem for giving circles, Bernholz says. "Everything about them argues that people would be attracted to them as much in a down economy as in an up economy."

Building a Universe
The universe is made out of planets, ,the sun, moon and stars. The first thing we need to build the universe is light. To make light we need hydrogen.If we apply heat and pressure to hydrogen it explodes and creates the sun and stars which gives us light.
The explosion has also given us the ingredients we need to make our planets. To build the planets we will need 32% of Iron 15% of Magnesium 16% of Silicon and 30% of Oxygen which makes 93% all together. The other 7% contains Hydrogen, Aluminium, Salt and Calcium. To bind the materials together we need gravity. With gravity the dust rubs together to make it stick which causes the dust to form rocks. The small rocks cling to the large rocks which makes one big rock,a planet.
Now we have created our planets. Mercury the nearest to the sun, Venus the second brightest object in the sky, Mars where a big volcano exists, Jupiter bigger than all the planets combined, Saturn with its amazing rings, so light it could float on water, Uranus the planet that has 27 moons and Neptune freezing cold.
`The last planet we will build is Earth.To have life on Earth we need water, liquid water. Where we position Earth is very important, if it is to close to the sun the water will boil and if it is to faraway from the sun the water will freeze. There for the best position for Earth is between Venus and Mars.
Now its time to light up the universe with stars,we need over three billion stars, a galaxy of stars.To keep our galaxy together we need a vital ingredient Dark Matter.The gravity of Dark Matter will hold our universe together.
And that is how to build a universe.

New California (officially the New California Republic, often abbreviated to NCR) is a large, democratic federation based in California, with holdings in Nevada, Oregon, Mexico (Baja) and along the Colorado River.
The NCR emphasizes and claims to support a myriad of old world values, such as democracy, personal liberty, and the rule of law. It also strives to restore the general order of the wasteland, the improvement and development of infrastructure and economic systems, and a basic common peace between the people.
Though appearing to be a benevolent entity of governance, the ability to control the land it claims to protect, the fidelity of those who live under their rule, and the widespread corruption within their political system has been questioned by many, without a clear response by the NCR themselves. They are first seen in episode 5.
Background Edit
The New California Republic was born from the remnants of the survivors of Vault 15 and the small walled community they founded, Shady Sands. Under the leadership of Aradesh, and with the assistance of the Vault Dweller (who saved Tandi, Aradesh's daughter and a future president of the NCR), the community prospered. Trade routes with other settlements allowed cultural exchange, and a movement to form a national entity gradually took root and won popular acceptance. In 2186, the town of Shady Sands changed its name to "New California Republic" and formed a trial council government to draft a constitution. Four more settlements joined the council, and in 2189 the NCR was voted into existence as a sprawling federation of five states: Shady Sands, Los Angeles, Maxson, The Hub, and Dayglow.
By post-apocalyptic standards, the NCR is a paragon of economic success and good ethical character: political enfranchisement, rule of law, a reasonable degree of physical security, and a standard of living better than mere subsistence are daily realities for its 700,000+ citizens. Currently, the NCR is in a state of transition, with rapid economic growth and a sea change in political leadership endangering its grand humanitarian ideals. Nowhere is this more evident than in the Mojave, where the occupation ofHoover Dam has improved access to electricity and water, but at the cost of straining its budget and embroiling its armed forces in a morally corrosive imperialist project.
The NCR government's aim is to annex New Vegas as the republic's newest state. While it already controls Hoover Dam, its treaty with Mr. House and the three families compels it to allot 5% of the dam's electrical and water production to local use free of charge. Adding insult to injury, the NCR is locked into protecting New Vegas from invasion by Caesar's Legion even as it receives not one cap in tax revenue from the Strip's highly lucrative resort operations. NCR citizens in the Mojave have largely come here for economic reasons, whether as paid citizen soldiers or as prospectors and fortune-seekers.[2]
Society Edit
The majority of the NCR populace is made up of farmers, travelling merchants and poor settlers seeking protection from the dangers of the post-apocalyptic world - a luxury usually only available to the rich and powerful. In exchange for their protection, the NCR classes them as a 'citizen' and collects taxes from them which is mostly used on the military to arm, train, and supply their troops. Citizenship can be given to entire settlements and put under NCR jurisdiction if requested, however this practice is controversial in the Mojave due to rumors of the NCR supposedly bullying weaker settlements and incorporating them against their will.
The NCR enforces strict rules upon their citizens and in their cities: crimes across the Mojave are typically punished by death. Openly carrying arms, prostitution, gambling, and slavery are not permitted within NCR city limits. Persons found under the influence of alcohol or drugs will be arrested. Despite government playing a large part in the daily lives of citizen, the NCR is not authoritarian and is generally liberal towards people who commit minor crimes.
Policing (both civilian and military) in the fringes of NCR territory and outside of it is usually of poor quality however - this is evident as off-duty NCR troopers that seek entertainment on The Strip can be witnessed drunk and hint to have been gambling or using prostitutes. A notable trait of the New California Republic, often to the annoyance of its citizens, is the government's tendency to be overly bureaucratic and giving power to those of an important background rather than by ability. As a lot of the power is invested in particular individuals in the cities back west, citizens at the frontier regions often feel like they are not listened to and are forgotten about.
Structure Edit
The NCR is a democratic federation, modeling itself on the government of pre-War United States. The government is divided into three branches: legislative, executive and judicial. The legislative branch is the Congress, staffed by representatives elected by their states and senators, forming two houses: House of Representatives and the Senate. The Congressmen use a variety of titles: "Councilor," "Counselor," "Councilman," "Representative," and "Senator." In particular, the Hub (in its own obstinate way) prefers to call their representatives "Governors." The executive branch is the Republic council, headed by the President and Vice-President. The President and Vice-President are elected by NCR citizens, with advice from the Congress. Last, the judicial branch comprises courts and judges ruling in accordance with NCR's adapted version of American common law.
In theory, this is a sound and well-balanced system, but in practice every state tries to assert its independence and work toward furthering its own agenda. There is a great amount of friction between the states of Hub and Shady Sands, usually related to trade rights and caravan routes, while New Reno remains dominated by various criminal interests. Significant pressure is exerted upon the political and economic direction of the NCR by a variety of private interests: in particular, the brahmin barons whose wealth gives them great influence at the ballot box and whose needs are often placed first by officials seeking support in their political ambitions. With the armed forces, the Gun Runners gain special dispensation and influence as they are the primary contributor to NCR's weapon arsenal. Elsewhere, monopolies like the Crimson Caravan and similar trading families dominate the trade routes and use their wealth to gain influence with the NCR government and extort large amounts of money. Smaller competitors who are unable to compete with both the larger competition as well as the high taxes are inevitably muscled out.
The president is the biggest factor in deciding the course the Republic should take. For example, under Tandi (who served over ten terms as President; something Caesar mocks as indicative of monarchy rather than democracy), the NCR grew substantially, focusing its efforts upon rebuilding the pre-War infrastructure and restarting technological development. Conversely, while under Aaron Kimball, the NCR has become more imperialistic and expansive, overextending itself on multiple fronts in the process.
There is little to no sexism in the NCR (unlike many other factions in the wastes), most likely due to the community's origins in Vault 15 and Tandi's extended presidency. The republic has also shown little discrimination against ghouls and mutants, though many political analysts argue that this is because NCR has had limited contact with them (the NCR did have little contact with Necropolis or the Master's Army). Some of their Veteran Rangers are ghouls, however, and they accept ghouls into their army. In any event, some politicians use lingering anti-mutant sentiments to boost their popularity among voters.
There is a clear separation of church and state within the NCR. In particular, the NCR has resisted any attempts to canonize the Vault Dweller within its city limits (the statue outside the Hall of Congress being the only exception). Both Aradesh and Tandi found that politics and religion don't mix, a realization that was cemented when they gained more exposure to the people of the Hub and received visits from a few well-spoken members of the Followers of the Apocalypse. As long as there is no interaction between church and government, the NCR (past and present) allows any non-radical religious groups within their borders. Accordingly, the NCR are very tolerant of religion as long as its various assemblies don't participate in human sacrifice or indulge in dipping people into vats of Forced Evolutionary Virus, such as the Legion and the Master's Army.

- Arroyo
- Boneyard

- Klamath*
- Maxson*
- Redding*

- Vault City*
Military Edit
The NCR's military is composed of several Divisions, including special cavalry, marksmen, scouts and mechanized units. In addition, many of their major cities are protected and patrolled by heavily armed police officers. One of their Special Forces units consists of the New California Rangers, a select group that is pledged to protect the people of the Wastes much like the Texas Rangers of old. The Rangers are said to have numerous safehouses throughout the wastes, and they use these to strike at slavers outside of NCR territory (usually in the North). As expected, the two groups hate each other with a passion. NCR was also in the habit of establishing marshals in the major population centers in their territories, responsible for enforcing the laws of NCR throughout the Republic. Ghouls, super mutants, and humans were all known to serve in the NCR armed forces. The NCR gained access to a limited number of Vertibirds from their battle with the Enclave over Navarro, along with the Brotherhood of Steel.
Although diverse, the NCR military is mostly composed of their regular troopers who are characterized by their tan uniform, wide-brimmed helmet, goggles and armed with a standard service rifle. These soldiers are the image often associated with the NCR and are commonly seen in both pro and anti NCR propaganda.
Relations with the outside Edit
Many people in the western wastelands have mixed feelings about the NCR. Some people strongly support the Republic's goals of spreading democracy and the rule of law, and others vehemently oppose their methods of "controlling" everything they come into contact with. With wastelanders who were used to having no more than a mayor or sheriff now suddenly being part of a complex political structure and having to pay taxes, some view it as a loss of the frontier lifestyles that once defined them. As the NCR's power and territory grew, it made progressively stronger enemies who would test the resolve of the Republic.
Under President Tandi, the NCR made slow but sustainable territorial expansion, allowing towns and other small communities, who were impressed by the principles of the NCR, to join of their own volition. While defending their borders from hostile raiders like the once legendary Vipers and Jackals, who would be ravaged by the NCR's military until they became broken shadows of their former glory. Eventually taming Southern California, these achievements would garner such respect for President Tandi that the people would come to adore her, and tribals outside the NCR's borders would refer to her as the "Great Mother".
Viewing the NCR's growth and success as a threat to their already stagnating power and influence, the Brotherhood of Steel would launch a military campaign with the goal of pacifying the NCR and reclaiming technology that they felt the NCR was not fully capable of understanding. After narrowly avoiding defeat in the early days of the war, the NCR would ultimately prevail and force the Brotherhood into retreat and hiding. The NCR had pushed back their strongest opponent yet, but at a cost. With the destruction of their gold reserves in the early days of the war, the Republic could not continue to fund their costly war with the Brotherhood for long, unless more revenue was acquired.
After the death of President Tandi, her successors would gradually change the direction of the NCR. Rapidly expanding the Republic's borders in every direction in a more imperialistic fashion, they sacrificed some of the NCR's principles and moral highground in the process. Now led by President Aaron Kimball, the NCR's expansion has led it to theMojave Wasteland, where it would encounter the impressive city of New Vegas, and the even more promising Hoover Dam. However it would also encounter its greatest enemy to date, Caesar's Legion, across the Colorado River. Seeking to annex New Vegas and drooling over the prospects of the money that would flow back towards the Republic in taxes, they sent their army east.
The NCR initially had great success in the Mojave Wasteland, setting up several bases and even an embassy on The Strip. The front line of the new conflict between the NCR and Caesar's Legion moved towards the Colorado River. The Legion attacked the NCR with its full strength during the First Battle of Hoover Dam. The NCR was forced to retreat, but lured the Legion into a trap at Boulder City and was able to retake the Dam. After their defeat, the Legion regularly conducted raids on the west side of the Colorado, even creating permanent bases at Cottonwood Cove and sacking towns like Nipton and Nelson with little response from the NCR.
Known wars and military conflicts which the NCR was involved:
- NCR-Enclave War
- NCR-Brotherhood War
- NCR-Great Khan War
- NCR-Legion War
- NCR-Raiders War
Technology Edit
The NCR has access to a lot of pre-War technology. Standard NCR soldiers have service rifles along with standard pre-War and self-made combat armor. The NCR possesses Salvaged power armor acquired from engagements with the Brotherhood, but lack the training to use it. Instead, the servos in the joints are stripped out and an air-conditioning unit is installed in place of the power core, turning it into extremely heavy, but effective, armor. However, the NCR special forces, the NCR Ranger Veterans, use pre-War riot gear and armor. The weapons used by the Rangers include: anti-materiel rifle, Ranger Sequoia, hunting revolver, and brush gun, among others.
As for civilian technology, they appear to have knowledge of irrigation (as apparent in the NCR Sharecropper Farms). They can also maintain some pre-War transportation, such as the monorail at Camp McCarran. The NCR were also working on an extensive railroad network in the New Vegas area into New California. The network used in the Mojave was used for transporting limestone from Quarry Junction to Boulder City; these efforts were halted by the Powder gangers revolt and the unsuccessful efforts to curb deathclaw population growth.

Asif was released from prison in May after serving half his sentence of 12 months for the fixing scandal that rocked the world of cricket. The seamer was among two other Pakistani players jailed after plot in a bowl deliberate no-balls during a test of the 2010 edition Lord against England was discovered during an undercover investigation by the now defunct News of the World.
Former Pakistan captain Salman Butt was jailed for 30 months, while fast bowelr Mohammad Amir was detained for six months in a young offenders' institution. The three players were prevented from playing due to a five-year ban imposed by the International Cricket Council (ICC). Three judges of the Court of Appeal in London on Wednesday rejected an appeal by the Pakistan Cricket Mohammad Asif against his conviction for fixing point.
In their decision, the judges said they were "not satisfied that there are arguable grounds or otherwise, to attack the security of convictions of the applicant (Asif)".
"The repeated requests are rejected," they added.
The fast bowler Asif, 30, was released from prison in May after serving half of a 12-month sentence for participating in a plot to bowl deliberate no-balls in a Test match against the England at Lord's in 2010.
Former captain Salman Butt was jailed for 30 months, while promising young bowler Mohammad Aamer was detained for six months in a young offenders' institution.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) administration has also banned the trio of cricket for five years.
Butt and Asif both defied the ban ICC Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), but the organization based in Lausanne in April rejected their appeals.
Point-fixing conspiracy, which was discovered by the late World News newspaper, was one of the biggest scandals to hit the cricket over the years and has also led to the conviction of their London-based agent.
The Court of Appeal dismissed challenges by Butt and Aamer against their sentences in November 2011.
In his ruling, Lord Chief Justice Igor Judge, the head of the judiciary in England and Wales, said the players had "betrayed the country where they had the honor to represent and betrayed the sport that had given them their distinction – and of course betrayed all the very many followers of the game throughout the world.

Drawing on theoretical and empirical studies on hotel location, as well as on enquires into the specificities of contemporary suburbanization, the article investigates the drives, directions and consequences of the dispersal of hotels into the suburban areas of large historic cities, with an illustration of the case of Rome. The attractiveness of suburban tourism for both private investors and planning authorities - it is argued - is not simply a response to the congestion of city centres, but is constructed upon more general changes in the spatiality of urban tourism. The spread of suburban hotels exemplifies an atomization of the tourist city and it is an excellent indicator of the changing sociofunctional relations between the hospitality system and the city, the different role of accessibility and of agglomeration economies, the transformation of tourists' experience of cities in an age of global suburbanization.

The church of Santa Maria in Porclaneta Valley dates back in the time, though the earliest attestations refer to the XI century, when the monastery passed under the jurisdiction of Montecassino Abbey. The plan of the church consists of a single hall concluding in an apse; before the entrance there is a pronaos, which used to lead to the monks' rooms, now collapsed. Inside the church preserves a pulpit and a ciborium dated 1510, both attributed to the master Nicodemo; furthermore, there are the remains of the iconostasis that used to separate the presbytery from the hall reserved to the congreg

Laggards or performers? CEE vs. PIIGS countries' catch-up with the Euro area in the last ten years
This research paper develops a comparative analysis between the new members states of the European Union (EU) – from Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) – and PIIGS countries (Portugal, Italy, Ireland, Greece and Spain) in terms of economic convergence with the Euro area, in the last decade. In addition, the paper emphasizes the changes in the economic convergence levels determined by the recent international crisis. In order to assess these evolutions, we compute an aggregated index of economic convergence, made up of real and structural convergence indexes. Then, by using cluster methodology, we highlight the similarities between the states in the two groups, CEE and PIIGS, from the economic convergence perspective. The comparative analysis reveals that in 2010 only Estonia, Hungary and Slovenia report resembling characteristics to PIIGS group. We also report an important progress of the countries analyzed, as regards real and structural convergence with the Euro area. However, after a decade of catching-up, Romania remains by far the most distanced country from the Euro area.

Cell Phone Payments on Hold in U.S.?
The technology is already popular in Japan, but American companies need to compromise and work together before it can succeed in the United States, according to a New York Times report.
While consumers in Japan have been using cell phones to pay for purchases for the last five years, and there have been some trials in the U.S., including in Atlanta, New York and the San Francisco Bay Area, it seems Americans may have to wait for the technology to take off, according to a report in The New York Times, as the numerous companies that need to work together to give the technology to the masses have yet to agree on how to split the resulting revenue, the newspaper reported.
"In Japan it was easier," explained Gerhard Romen, director for corporate business development at Nokia in the Times report. "It was just the major guys saying, 'This is how it will be.' "
A single carrier, NTT DoCoMo, accounted for more than half the Japanese market at the time the system was rolled out and had significant leverage with financial institutions and handset manufacturers, the report stated.
However, in the U.S., cell phone manufacturers, carriers, financial institutions and retailers must all work together along with an intermediary trusted by both the financial institutions and the carriers to activate the virtual credit cards inside the phone, the newspaper reported.
One problem is anyone using a credit card inside a cell phone is simultaneously a customer of the financial institution and of the carrier. "At the end of the day, the question is, 'Who pays whom and how much?'" Romen said in the report. "The carriers and the banks need to get their act together on payment."
However, it is almost certain mobile-phone payments will eventually become popular in the United States because it will benefit everyone involved, the report stated. While, credit-card companies will gain a new way to attract and keep customers -- not to mention save money by no longer sending cards through the mail -- carriers receive a new source of revenue, and retailers get a faster checkout process -- always need in a c-store environment.
And according to Joanne Trout, vice president of worldwide communications for MasterCard Worldwide, there will not be an additional fee for consumers to use credit cards on their phones, the report stated.
But until everyone involved agrees to work together, Americans may be waiting up to five years, Key Pousttchi, head of the Wi-mobile research group at the University of Augsburg in Germany told the newspaper.
"It is completely possible nothing will happen in mobile payments in the next five years if everybody keeps thinking only about their own piece of the puzzle."

Wine Wednesday Whites Case
Your Wine Wednesday Whites Case includes two bottles each of
Hayton Family Reserve Chardonnay
It has a refreshing "say no to oak" style – bright and light with citrus, apple and tropical fruit aromas and flavors. A gentle acidity adds structure while allowing the delicate fruit flavors to shine. Versatile and food-friendly, it makes a good choice with seafood, poultry, or pasta dishes with butter-based sauces.
Spencer Family Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc
Crisp flavors of grapefruit and green apple with notes of ripe fig are the most distinguishing characteristics of this fruit-forward, award-winning selection. Produced from a vineyard established more than 100 years ago by descendants of European winemakers, its grapes provide marvelous complexity and balance.
MYTH Viognier
When you discover the power of Viognier's persuasion, you won't look back. If you love wines that are fruity with nice vibrancy and a beautifully floral nose, then MYTH is a Viognier you want to try. Flavors of peaches, apricots, Meyer lemons and hibiscus are paired with a nice minerality and lush finish. MYTH will make you fall in love with Viognier.
Bayshore Vintners Pinot Grigio
This lovely wine from Bayshore is produced from one of the first vineyards in California planted with Pinot Grigio that originally focused on dessert wines. That is until a wine importer, seeing the potential for table wines, used these grapes to launch a line of food-friendly table wines. Gorgeous aromas jump out of the glass and delicious flavors of melon, citrus and tangerine are completed by a refreshing thread of crisp acidity.
Blume Verdejo
Rueda is situated in the heart of the Iberian Peninsula, right between the two most famous Spanish wine growing regions of Ribera del Duero and Toro. The high plateau of this region produces long cold winters, short springs, and hot summers, which ensure optimal ripeness for the berries. This perfect climate, combined with modern winemaking techniques, produces bright wines with character. Pale yellow with subtle golden hues, Blume flaunts juicy tangerine, orange peel and white flowers, with a slight hint of fennel to add a touch of sweet aroma. Body is medium and the finish is dry. This stunning Spanish white scored 91 points in the 2014 Ultimate Wine Challenge and a Bronze medal in the Decanter Wine Awards 2014.
La Petite Tour Classic White
A light, refreshing, vibrant, and an all around crowd-pleasing white. Crisp flavors of grapefruit and green apple with notes of ripe fig are the most distinguishing characteristics of this fruit-forward, grassy white wine with present minerality and a pleasing finish.

What Our Clients Say
The men were prompt, courteous, very careful, efficient and pleasant. This normally very tiresome business of a move was made easy, and we could relax because the men did their job so skillfully.
Just moved house a couple of days ago. Cannot recommend this firm highly enough. The quote included dismantling and reassembling flat pack furniture, which they did, effectively. The guys were friendly, helpful and honest. Nothing was too much trouble for them.
I used Removal Experts for my recent move. They did a lot of things for us - packed up entirely, moved some stuff down to a 2nd house, moved the other contents into storage, then got them back out of storage for us to move them into our new flat, and then they helped us with the unpacking. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. Despite all of those moves, nothing at all got broken, they were always on time, and seemed to work extremely hard (the longest break they took was about 10 mins for lunch!). The team were always friendly and cheerful, and it made the whole move far less stressful.
They arrived on time, packed all stuff carefully and took them to their storage for two weeks. After two weeks they delivered everything to my new house without any problems, none of the item was damaged. Also, they disassembled and assembled back my furniture properly. I would honestly recommend the company.
I booked 2 men and van only 4 days prior to my move. I was given very competitive quote and there was no hidden cost. Team (Martin and Radek) arrived on time and they were very very hard workers, friendly, efficient. Some of my furniture were quite heavy but they didn't moan, like the other removal guys I have used before, and very careful and gentle with my stuff. They never stopped working from beginning to end. I would recommend them and will defiantly use them again in future.

MCCaskill, undoctor like behavior
My wife was seen by her about an ultrasound exam that turned up a polyp (cancer, noncancerous!?!) She would not listen to my wife because she wanted a full hysterectomy due to cancer on both sides of her family with the women and all women having full hysterectomies. Dr. M would not listen to my wife. at the appointment yesterday, she said my wife was fat, without actually coming out and saying it. my wife has had 3 kids AND had her L4 and L5 disc removed and she also has degenerative disc disease in her back and has debilitating pain in her back due to a Dr. not diagnosing her correctly and causing her more pain. But Dr. M has no compassion which is a foremost aspect for being a Dr. due to her mobility issues, she can't exercise in a way that will help with her weight. I know, I live with her and she's in pain and was told by the back surgeon to NOT have any more surgeries. Dr. M only says what's she's going to do, and you the patient have no say. I honestly think she sizes up a patient, then comes to her neglectful and bias opinion about a particular patient. I was present in the room for my wife's appointments, glad I was because, I saw Dr. M's demeanor and lack of empathy for my wife. If a Dr. who is lacking in sympathy nor listens to her patients is your cup of tea, then by all means book an appointment today!

First of all.... for the first visit as a new patient it cost me over $ 500 to see the( nurse), after the visit no follow up call and very rude office manager / receptionist who threatened to hang up on me... When I called yesterday due to a severe pain issue, the receptionist said the nurse would call me back and never did. In closing the office of Dr McCaskill is very expensive and very unprofessional and I would not even rate it one star if this format would let me.

unfriendly and unprofessional staff
Window kept closed by receptionist. There is never a friendly greeting. Dr. McCaskill was always cold and hostile. Asking many questions about what vitamins when I was cold and naked (with only a hospital gown on. Always trumping anything I said as unworthy. I hated going there. Her staff is also rude and unfriendly. They order you to put the gown on...rather than request.

Long time patient
I've been seeing Dr. McCaskill for about 10 years and have never had an issue with her. I was actually shocked with bad reviews and felt compelled to write one myself to off set these. Dr. McCaskill performed two surgeries on me, my tubal and a hydro-oblation and both went very well. You could not ask for a more skilled and knowledgeable doctor.

Wonderful Experience
I have a 14 year old daughter that was having heavy, painful periods and did not want her to see my gynecologist who is a male and was referred to Dr McCaskill by a friend. The staff was wonderful, polite and professional. Dr McCaskill took as much time as we needed, explained all our options and was very helpful and kind. I ended up bringing my daughter back for a 3 month birth control check, and it was found that the birth control was causing her blood pressure to rise (thanks for the 3 mo follow up that they scheduled) we then changed to something else. I felt this office was truly invested in my daughters well being. I even ended up switching to this office for my gynecology visits. Would recommend to all my friends.

Amazing Doctor
Dr. McCaskill is by far the best OBGYN in Reno. I would not be alive today if it wasn't for her. I went in for a routine check-up and ended up finding out that I had a condition requiring an immediate hysterectomy. I was in and out of the hospital in a day because of her skill. She always made herself available to me, night or day.

I went to this doctor because she came up when I did a search for a new OBGYN. Her staff is so unprofessional but Im sure she doesnt realize it because she is as personable as a dry wall! I hate her and her services. I will never go back and I would HIGHLY ADVISE anyone and everyone to RUN...away! She is terrible! Like the other comment, she made me come back for a "follow-up" because of new birth control and did NOTHING! Terrible!

Poor staffing
Not greeted by reception... I just sat and waited for 15 mintues. Once Reception opened the window there was no friendly greeting just the question "has any of your information changed?" when I got new birth control I had to come back after 3 months and waste my $75 to sit down with the doctor jsut to have the doctor tell me my blood pressure was ok and that I could keep taking the birth conrtol... $75 + PTO from work for that!! I am switching OBGYNs. Very rude, poorly trained "reception," and very inconsiderate.

It really depends on how bad you have it. My yard got pretty bad so it was tough.
I used a pick ax to remove all of the clumps. You can spread the work out over time.
Grass be gone bt ortho will kill it, but it will also kill other grass around it. This is good for spot treatment when you have manually removed most of it.
keep the grass short to prevent further spreading.
I had to dig part of my yard up and just replace with new sod and spot treat any coming up.
If you are looking for an easy way there is not one.

Hey gang, ive missed ya! First let me say how proud i am of all of you. Hopefully with the tools i have shown you, added to your current arsenal of techniques, you are better traders. It certainly seems that way from reading all the posts every nite! At the very least the cycles and price proj should help, even when your wrong, to keep you from getting burned too badly. And i really mean this, it is an honor to be trading with all of you! I can truly say i have learned as much from you as you may have from me...... Now to the market. It now appears to me that the 45 day cycle bottomed today! I mean what was that , an 800 point reversal in the dow, or 84 handles in the s&p? Havnt had time to study everything yet, but it sure looks that way! Trying to buy maybe 906.50 tho i may adjust after i get the 1 min proj.(none given yet)
I actually find it easier to trade for that reason, its so slow... but boring!LOL
i wonder how far can we pull in tomorrow. I have resistance up at 924 then 936 on the upside
See what time it is? I just bailed at 900.50, plus 1.00 on 2 es .. up 9.5 handles total on the session
kool, i trade a 144 tick alot chart, can you count bars or have you tried in that time frame for swing highs/ lows?
Never tried it CJO, but should work on anything really.
Ive used the cycles successfully on oil and gold before and even nailed the low for the us dollar to the day!(but didnt trade it, margins too high for me), but i actually probably rely on price proj. even more. Not sure why.
i might have to look at this night time stuff more, my system is still short, would of, could of, should of, how many times do we say that, hind sight is 20/20! but your right kool, it is like watching paint dry!
Iguess i like price proj. cause its just plain more fun! LIKE see where we are at now? MOST TRADERS HAVE NO IDEA WHERE WE MAY TURN. OR HOW LOW WE MIGHT GO .But we knew what, half hour ago ,at least!
akola, Kool is gone till 1 pm

25 Ways You Can Be More Self Reliant Today
Learn Self-Reliance Skills Before You Are Forced To
There are a lot more than 25 ways to be more self reliant so use these tips as a creative nudge. Self reliant living has always been an important skill. From the Pilgrims to the generation that lived through the Depression and World War II the ability to survive and thrive during times of intense hardship made the difference between life and death - freedom and slavery.
Sometimes people become self reliant because they want to and sometimes because they have to. Choosing to be self reliant is better than being forced to in difficult circumstances. Since any skill requires practice spending time honing your survival skills when you don't have to is better and more effective than having to learn on the fly. There's also a deep confidence that develops as you learn to do more.
There is nothing in this world that is guaranteed. Things change rapidly. Stock markets rise and they crash, you may have a job today and yet be unemployed tomorrow. It stands to reason that the more independent you can be the better off you are and the better quality of life you will have overall.
A Guide to Self Sufficiency
If you want to be self sufficient you know it isn't going to happen overnight. This comprehensive guide walks you through the steps. Written by someone who has been where you are this book (or Kindle) has 24 five star reviews.
25 Steps to Self Reliance You Can Take Today
Becoming independent is not an overnight thing but everything has a beginning and this is no different. The small steps you take today can change your life, even save your life, further down the road.
1. Get Out of Debt
Getting out of debt is the number one priority. You can't be free and in debt.
Come up with a plan to get out of debt. This really isn't that hard. Put up the credit cards and don't use them. Begin to pay an extra five dollars on your lowest balance, more if you can. When that balance is paid off add the amount you had been paying to your next lowest balance, and so on.
When you can pay more by all means DO! Debt costs you money. If you really want to see how much it is costing you add up your finance charges every month. $50? $100? what could you be doing with that money?
2. Learn New Skills
Learn one homemaking, farming, or other skill a month. Sewing, knitting, and crocheting would be my top suggestions and then from their move to soap making and spinning. With these skills you can clothe your family or even make a little money.
Learning to milk a goat or a cow, clip hooves, and handle basic care is important, too. Seed saving, planting, creating compost, and other necessary farming skills will allow you to provide food for your family no matter what happens.
Other skills might include building and woodworking skills, learning about engines and how to fix them, and things along those lines.
3. Choose Simplicity
Make simplicity a habit. When you need to get your nails done, get your hair done, and have the newest technology the lack of these things will leave a huge void in your life. If you create a life without things you don't miss them when they are gone! Learn to enjoy an evening board game with the family rather than DVD's or video games. That's not to say you can't use them! Just beware of becoming too dependent.
The more things you have, the more things you have to keep up with, take care of, and worry about. Try to keep things simple and possessions minimal.
4. Invest in Books
Invest in books. No matter what happens if you have books available you can find the information you need. If the Internet goes down, if power goes off, you won't be able to get your information from your computer however if you have a good collection of books; reference and good literature, you will always have both entertainment and instruction. You can homeschool your kids pretty thoroughly with only a good set of encyclopedias.
5. Learn to Cook
Learn cooking skills. Bread baking, canning, making sour dough starter, and even making things like wine and vinegar are useful abilities.
It's surprising how many people honestly don't know how to make cake with out a mix!
6. Invest in reusable Items
Invest in reusable personal items like cloth diapers and cloth feminine hygeine products. Better yet, learn to make these things for yourself.
7. Plant a garden
Plan a vegetable garden. It doesn't have to be extensive. Good things to plant would be:
- green beans
- lettuces
- spinach
- broccoli
- beets
- tomatoes
- peas
- okra
- eggplant
- peppers
- zucchini
- squash
- cucumbers
There are, of course many other vegetables to try but these are the most reliable and prolific for the beginner.
8. Plant Herbs
Plant herbs. Culinary herbs should include basil, oregano, dill, lavender (mixed use), mint (also mixed use), rosemary, sage, and cilantro. But don't stop at culinary herbs, there are many herbs that make important medicinal teas. Lavender is soothing, mint calms a queasy tummy. Alfalfa cleanses the blood stream and lymph system.
9. Plant Fruit
Plant fruit. Not everyone has the space for an orchard but there are new varieties of miniature and dwarf trees that stay five feet tall or less and yet produce fruit. Usually you need two varieties of each fruit tree for proper pollination. By planting fruit trees as landscaping you will have s guaranteed supply of fruit in hard times. Strawberries, blackberries, and grapes are other good choices.
10. Consider Keeping Bees
Consider bee keeping as a fun hobby and a way to ensure that your sweet tooth gets fed. An added benefit is the increase in bees to pollinate your vegetable garden.
11. Dairy Goats for Milk
Consider dairy goats. Depending on where you live you can keep a couple of does for far less than you will pay for milk. If your space is very limited consider Nigerian Dwarf Dairy goats. They are about the size of a Golden Retriever or Lab and are sweet tempered with good milk production on minimal feed. You can even use the large Igloo dog houses as shelter for them - at least temporarily.
Do not buy an animal on a whim. It is a responsibility and it's important that you learn all that you can before purchasing them. It will save time and frustration later on.
12. Backyard Chickens
Chickens can provide eggs and meat. If you keep a rooster or two you can ensure your ability to continue to produce both eggs and meat as long as necessary by breeding the chickens and allowing them to hatch their eggs. Chickens, if allowed to free range, need little in the way of supplemental foods.
13. Collect Hand Tools
Pick up hand tools and learn to use them. Battery operated and electric drills and saws are great normally but what if the grid goes down and you need to fix something? You can find handsaws,planes, augers, post hole diggers and other tools for pennies at garage sales.
14.Have a Plan
Have a plan. This sounds easy but few people do it. Spend a few minutes thinking about what would happen in a financial crisis, national emergency, or weather related emergency. List some things you would need, plan what steps you would take.
Then discuss the plan with family members. Make sure everyone understands what to do in an emergency.
15. First Aid Kit
Have a first aid kit handy and learn about homeopathics and herbs. These were used for centuries before antibiotics and have a place in home health care today. Colloidal silver can be used as eye drops, nose drops, ear drops, external antibiotic and an internal antibiotic. Keep a medical reference guide where you can get it quickly.
16. Learn to Hunt
Buy a hunting rifle and learn to use it safely. There may come a time when that adorable rabbit that nibbles the clover in your backyard may make an excellent stew.
17. Learn to Forage
Learn to forage for wild foods. Berries, herbs, and other wild edibles abound in most of the United States. get a good reference book for your area.
18. Think Outside of the Box
Change your mentality about money. Working a 9-5 job is only one way to make an income. There are many more from tutoring, selling produce and eggs, to cleaning houses, mowing lawns, and blogging.
19. Create a Reference Library
Start a reference library. Books that have instruction in important survival skills are a great investment.
20. Emergency Rations
Keep some MRIs handy, about 1-2 weeks worth per person. This will give you time, in an emergency, to come up with a plan to feed your family.
Whole grains, powdered milk, and other dry goods can be stored without too much problem. Make sure you have a good supply of water on hand.
21. Wood Stove
Install a wood stove. Whether it is in the den or somewhere else a wood stove will provide heat and cooking surface if need be.
22. Stay Healthy
Exercise. Keeping yourself healthy will enable you to be strong in times of stress.
23. Keep Cash on Hand
Keep some cash at home. 500.00 is a good start. If something happens you have cash to use as you need to.
24. Consider Alternative Energy
Learn about alternative energy and begin moving toward solar power panels.
25. Drill a Well
Have a well drilled that can be utilized without an electric pump.
By doing these things you can feel confident in your ability to lead your family through hard times with a minimal discomfort.
Simple Living
Hand Tools
Long term survival issues may never happen, but short term survival issues definitely will. Back in 2008, my husband and I lost our jobs and got into a situation where we only had an income of $3000 in one year. If it weren't for our survival skills, we would have had a worse situation than what we suffered. Because we had debt, we lost our house and our car, however, we always had food and power. Our garden, chickens, and goats as well as the wood cook stove and furnace helped make that possible. If my husband's eldest daughter's child support had not been higher than our income, we would not have lost the house either.
I dated a girl, we were both twenty years old at the time. She'd had her car for a couple of years. She called me once from her cell phone at the gas station to get instructions on how to pump gas. I was floored, but instantly I understood how someone who has had everything done for them their entire life will find themselves very confused when having to face the world on their own. She was really pretty and not entirely unintelligent. Sadly however, I do believe that she starved to death at a McDonald's drive thru.
I believe in the future everyone will need survival skills ( you know --simple skills -- like how to cook, heat water without electricity, how to purify water, etc.). I am shocked to learn that many people have eaten all their meals in restaurants or friends home and don't have a clue how to make a sandwich or heat a can of soup. You have good information in your article. Thanks for writing this hub.
Good article. Many of Hesse things seem like common sense to me, then I see into my friends garages and see that they have no tools and no resources and I'm amazed at how little they actually know how to or are willing to do for themselves. Good work
Chris, You are assuming that everyone on this list has children. I don't with the exception of the furry four legged kind. I own a wide variety of books covering a multitude of subjects. Many were inherited from family members, many I have acquired over the years. Here is the part you need to take a deep breath for and perhaps even sit down. A few might be what you would classify as "slutty romance novels". But they are in good company, for example, Song of Solomon in the Bible, Scheherazade of One Thousand and One Nights and Arabian Nights, even The Canterbury Tales. So if I want to include something a bit more modern in my reading library please don't be offended and dismissive of it. For all you know, you may be insulting a future classic. Some of the most beautiful and lasting classic novels and poems weren't appreciated in their time because they had a few who considered them "slutty" or dismissed them because they were romantic. Don't judge my books by their covers! :)

Angela Toler, a 21-year Air Force veteran, and her staff frame The Picky Deli's 1/4-pound mounds of hand-sliced deli meats with sub rolls, croissants, and tomato basil or spinach wraps. Among a dozen sandwiches on the menu, the Reuben populates rye bread with shaved corned beef and sauerkraut for a meal as classic as a grilled cheese with chrome tailfins. Made from a special house recipe, the chicken salad accessorizes a bed of romaine lettuce with tomato pillows, and tuna salad swims among buoys of chopped hard-boiled eggs and sweet relish. On Fridays only, Angela serves gumbo and drizzles a grilled shrimp po boy sandwich with a special sauce, while Wednesdays and Thursdays see other weekly specials. Ferns and potted plants branch out around eclectic furnishings inside The Picky Deli, kept in line by constant glimpses into the fate of other fresh vegetables.
The Picky Deli
With her slate of deli sandwiches, Angela Toler aims to please even the choosiest palate. As the owner and proprietor of The Picky Deli, she oversees a host of tasks, from baking the turkey and ham to cooking and slicing the deli's meats. Using fresh ingredients, Toler's staff stacks each sandwich made to order, from classic Reubens to turkey clubs. The deli is open Monday through Friday, and on Fridays, diners can stop by for chicken-sausage gumbo.

By Laurie Kellman, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON Conservatives may not like President Bush's nominee for attorney general, but they are not rebelling against Michael Mukasey.
In fact, the former federal judge appointed by Ronald Reagan was endorsed by the American Center for Law and Justice, founded by Pat Robertson. The nomination "is good for the Department of Justice and good for America," said the group's chief counsel, Jay Sekulow.
The Republican National Committee is behind Mukasey, too. "Confirm Mukasey," the RNC declared in a mass e-mail Wednesday.
Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell reported fading, if any, dissent in the party. "My impression is that he's been found to be overwhelmingly satisfactory from everyone that I've heard from," the Kentucky Republican told the Associated Press in a brief interview.
The White House's strategy for getting conservatives in line appears to have avoided the kind of backlash from the right that sank Bush's nomination of his counsel, Harriet Miers, to the Supreme Court.
If confirmed by the Senate, Mukasey would succeed Alberto Gonzales at the Justice Department.
The approach to Mukasey, according to a senior administration official who spoke on condition of anonymity so as to speak more freely, went something like this: A hasty telephone call to him on Aug. 27, in the hours after Gonzales' long-expected resignation; an interview two days later; a first meeting with the president, on Sept. 1, that led to the offer; and Mukasey's acceptance, last Friday.
Before the nomination was made public, one crucial step remained: Get conservatives onboard, or at least a good distance from any potential mutiny.
Six conservative leaders were summoned to the White House on Sunday to meet Mukasey and ask questions, the official said.
Atop the attributes cited by Mukasey's supporters was that he essentially had won approval, in advance, from the Democrats who control the Senate and could be confirmed quickly.
Also, with only a year-plus before Bush's term ends and other fights looming -- over Iraq, the budget, eavesdropping on suspected terrorists -- the hope was to avoid adding to that list.
Some conservatives groups were unmoved and quite vocal. The key Democrat who backed Mukasey in advance was Sen. Chuck Schumer of New York, long scorned by conservatives. Anti-abortion advocates bristled at Mukasey's close association with the presidential campaign of Republican Rudy Giuliani, who favors abortion rights.
"President Bush has blown another chance to energize the discouraged, disheartened, and disillusioned base of the Republican party," said conservative activist Richard Viguerie.
He had suggested some unlikely candidates but also endorsed former solicitor general Ted Olson, said to be considered by Bush until Senate Democrats pledged to block such a nomination. "Bush is now the lamest of lame ducks," Viguerie added.
Brian Burch, president of the Catholic-based advocate group Fidelis, said Wednesday his organization is troubled merely by Mukasey's association with Guiliani and Schumer and what that might mean for anti-abortion policies if Mukasey takes over as attorney general.
Would Mukasey, Burch asked, advocate enough money to enforce the ban on a procedure its opponents call partial-birth abortion?
"A Rudy Giuliani-Michael Mukasey rise among the Republican party pushes the pro-life, pro-family agenda essentially out of both parties," Burch said. "We're not opposing his nomination. What we are doing is reserving judgment and emphasizing caution."
If such grumblings from the right develop into outright rebellion before the yet-to-be scheduled Senate Judiciary Committee hearings, the Republican establishment probably would not join in.
"I understand their concerns, but I don't share them," Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., chairman of the Senate Republican Conference and a member of the Judiciary Committee.
