Effects of Dietary Metabolizable Energy and Lysine on CarcassCharacteristics and Meat Quality in Arbor Acres Broilers
Tang, M.Y.; Ma, Q.G.; Chen, X.D.; Ji, C.;
An experiment was performed to evaluate the effects of dietary metabolizable energy (ME) and lysine on carcass characteristics and meat quality in Arbor Acres (AA) broilers from 1 to 56 days of age. A total of 2,970 1-d-old male broiler chicks were randomly allocated to nine dietary treatments (three ME levels in combination with three lysine levels), and dietary ME and lysine concentrations were formulated by varying corn, soybean meal, tallow, and L-lysine sulfate concentrations. Live body weight (BW), carcass weight (CW), dressing percent, breast muscle weight (BMW), yield of breast muscle, muscle color (CIE L*, a*, and b*), pH values 45 min and 24 h postmortem (
, and
), meat shear force value (SFV), and water loss rate (WLR) were evaluated. Results showed that live body weight and dressing percent increased (p<0.05) as dietary energy increased. Higher dietary lysine content improved breast muscle weight. Neither carcass weight nor yield of breast muscle was affected by dietary energy or lysine content. Higher ME increased the b* value (p = 0.067) and
value (p<0.05), whereas it decreased SFV (p<0.05) and WLR (p = 0.06). Only water loss rate was influenced (p<0.01) by dietary lysine, which was higher in broilers from the high lysine diet as compared to those from medium or low lysine diets. The
value and L* value of breast muscle were not affected by ME or lysine. Significant interaction of dietary ME and lysine was found on a* value of breast muscle. These results indicated that dietary ME and lysine had important effects on breast muscle growth and meat quality, however their effects were different. Different concentrations of dietary ME and lysine might be considered to improve meat quality.

xR's METHOD can be conceptualized as a rapid correction of estrogen and progesterone balance to not allow a patients' brain to fall into the abyss of the migraine process.
PRWeb (PRWEB) November 28, 2012
"I started having visual disturbances in my peripheral vision at work. I knew it was the start of a migraine," said Pat Pendry, a migraine sufferer. "I went to my desk and put a hormone drop under my tongue and my peripheral vision cleared and the headache just left. It's a miracle as far as I'm concerned. My migraines aren't as debilitating as some people have, but I'm miserable for two days and the second day I have a hangover from the first day."
George W Rozakis MD, medical director of xR states, "we have been balancing hormones and biochemistry for years to prevent migraine, but this is the first time we have used hormones to stop a migraine once it starts. It is very exciting as we continue to unravel the many causes of migraine."
"The METHOD (Migraine Elimination by Titration with Hormone via Oral Deliver) is the rapid correction of estrogen and progesterone balance to prevent the patient's brain from falling into the abyss of the migraine process," according to Dr. Brian Bakke, xR's Chief Scientific Officer. "The ratio between progesterone to estrogens has a profound impact on the start of a hormonal migraine. By placing the correct hormone under the tongue we were consistently able to eliminate the migraine once it starts."
The METHOD does not work every time, says Dr. Emhof, medical director of xR in Tallahassee Florida. However, if hormonal imbalance is your migraine trigger, then our experience is showing that it can quickly be resolved. When it does not work, that signals that the patient's problem is not hormonal imbalance but rather other causes, such as genetic errors, that need to be identified and managed."
Company Information: xR specializes in the application of genetics, bio-identical hormones, methylation science, nutraceuticals, and nutritional recommendations to manage the underlying cause of disease. When "xR" is combined with the traditional medicine "Rx" model, a wide range of illnesses benefit in all age groups especially patients over the age of 40 when the aging process accelerates.

Switzerland market for other petfood to grow by 1 percent in 2012
New report from Euromonitor International expects sales of other petfood to reach CHF70 million (US$75.2 million) in 2012
Current value sales of other petfood in Switzerland are expected to grow by 1 percent in 2012, reaching CHF70 million (US$75.2 million), according to Euromonitor International's new report.
The report, Other Pet Food in Switzerland , expects the other petfood category will account for 13 percent of overall petfood sales in 2012 as the number of households that own fish, small mammals and reptiles grows. In contrast, the number of bird-owning households is falling, negatively impacting overall sales of other petfood.
Additionally, the report offers data on the market for other petfood in Switzerland, including retail sales data from 2007-11 and market forecasts to 2016. The complete report can be purchased online .

Baiting a wasp trap is done differently depending upon the season. Wasps look for different types of food at different times of year. Baiting your trap with meat in the spring and sweet liquids in the summer and fall allows you to catch hundreds of wasps.Continue Reading
Pay attention to the season. If it's spring, gather a few chunks of lunch meat or a piece of hamburger. In late summer and fall, use fruit juice, a sports drink or soda to bait your trap.
Once you have gathered your materials, determine when to bait your trap. Wasps are less active early in the morning and late in the evening. These are the perfect times to bait your trap.
If it's spring, place a small piece of lunch meat in the trap. Alternatively, use a piece of hamburger about the size of a small meatball as bait.
If it is late summer or fall, bait the wasp trap with a sweet liquid. Fill the bottom of the trap with 1 or 2 inches of fruit juice or punch, a sports drink or soda.

The 1,250-acre Beit Govrin National Park lies in the Judean plain, an area with rolling hills rising some 400 meters above sea level. Most of the ground here is chalky and this soft but relatively erosion-resistant stone is ideal for caves. Very early, people began to dig caves in the Beit Govrin area, which they used as quarries and burial grounds, storerooms and workshops, hiding places and spaces for raising doves. The soft chalk is generally covered by a layer of harder nari, which can be up to two meters thick. In general, the caves have a narrow opening in the nari and get wider and wider in the chalk.
Hundreds of caves were dug in the area, some of which form a huge, astonishingly complex underground maze.
Tel Maresha (Marissa) stands in the highest part of the national park. This was the site of the city in Judea fortified by King Rehoboam after the campaign of Egyptian pharaoh Shishak: "And Rehoboam dwelt in Jerusalem, and built cities for defense in Judah and Gath, and Mareshah, and Ziph" (Second Chronicles 11:5, 8).
The city came into its own during the Hellenistic period (third to second centuries B.C.E.). During the Hasmonean period, John Hyrcanus captured the city and forced its residents to convert to Judaism. In Roman times, the residents abandoned Tel Maresha and established the nearby city of Beit Govrin, which became the capital of western Idumea.

Our Bodies, Our Votes: Join the Campaign to Support Reproductive Rights
From the press release:
"In a growing number of states across the country, women and girls must now submit to humiliating, demeaning procedures just so they can access basic healthcare," said Judy Norsigian, executive director of OBOS, the global women's health and human rights organization that began more than 40 years ago with the publication of its first book on women's health. A newly revised edition of Our Bodies, Ourselves was published in 2011.
"We are providing a forum for millions of people to join with us to send a strong message of support across the nation and the world," said Norsigian. "Our goal is for thousands of these stickers to be displayed on bumpers in all 50 states."
Visit the OBOV site to order your stickers (3 stickers for a $10 donation), check out our tumblr of submitted sticker photos from around the country, and send in your own!
You can also get virtual stickers for your blog, social media profile, or other website. Like the one over there, plus other designs and Spanish language versions. —>
While you're on the site, learn more about legislative attacks around the country and ways to fight back, and check out recommended sources of news and reproductive health information.
See Christine's blog post on the launch and the campaign site for more information. And don't forget – stickers! 🙂

I'm also going to be posting this on OBOB as well.
Feminist Movement, Our Bodies, Our Votes (Our Bodies, Ourselves; Boston Women's Health Book Collective) and etc.
Mean just look at the history of it. Unsure how to explain the history here. Is it possible to make small deal or do away with it?
As for I'm still totally unsure regarding of this and etc.
This isn't going to be review like the other posts/threads that I have done prior to this one. Instead its going to be more of me questioning certain aspects of their work, mainly in US.
Do you think that their work is more liberal stance as opposed being neutral or conservative as what claimed it to be? They have always been non for profit (rallies on private donations) as opposed being for profit (rallies commercial donations or something else along those lines, which I have no clue as to what it is/are).
As for me really never questioned them until now because always looked at their positives as opposed to their negatives. Even though I have most of their books in my collection, but still I'm starting to question their work and etc. Have to say that I found myself more neutral to conservative as opposed to liberal to neutral. My parents are the same way as me, but I'm unsure regarding my sister.
Think this is it for now.
July 5, 2012 5:52 pm
Thanx for the clarification to your response here. Oh okay, guess I found it more liberal then neutral. Have yet to come across of something conservative vs liberal or neutral.

Magnetic mapping of iron oxides in Australian soils
For more information about this potential research topic or activity, or to discuss any related research area, please contact the supervisor.
Australian topsoils are an important but fragile resource. Iron oxides form in soils and are sensitive to factors such as pH, moisture and temperature that influence potential crop yields and therefore the suitability of land for agriculture. Spectroscopic analysis has provided detailed information on the relative abundances of the iron oxides hematite and goethite in soils across Australia. However, crucial knowledge on absolute mineral abundance and the occurrence of important oxides such as magnetite is lacking. This information can be provided by the techniques of environmental magnetism, which use the magnetic properties of naturally occurring minerals to quantify their form and abundance.
This research will be undertaken in collaboration with the CSIRO National Soil Archive, which maintains a collection of soil specimens that have been analysed spectroscopically to determine the relative hematite and goethite content. The project will involve:
- collecting and preparing samples at the CSIRO National Soil Archive;
- performing an environmental magnetic analysis at the RSES Palaeomagnetic Laboratory to characterize and quantify the iron oxides in each soil sample;
- comparing environmental magnetic results to the spectroscopic data held in the Australian Soil Resource Information System (ASRIS); and
- producing a map of the absolute distribution of iron oxides in soils across Australia.

Lance Armstrong Isn't Even Good for Charity Anymore
Lance Armstrong apparently can't even do charity anymore. The disgraced cyclist has announced he will step down from LIVESTRONG, his foundation for cancer victims, following the doping scandal that led to a lifetime ban from his sport.
The news broke the same morning Nike officially terminated its contract with Armstrong, saying he "misled" the company about his doping for more than a decade. Nike long stood by the scrutinized Armstrong, but it appears the final straw was the devastating USADA report published last week, which portrayed Armstrong not only as a doper, but as a drug kingpin during his career.
Nike, in one bright spot, will continue to support LIVESTRONG, which Armstrong founded in 1997 after he survived testicular cancer. But it's clear that Armstrong's own legacy has hit rock bottom.

By FRIEDRICH HEBBEL
It is probable that no German who is able to appreciate the power of the theatre, its silent influence on the people, and the consequent reaction on the development of dramatic talent, has looked on indifferently at the decay and complete ruin of our stage. The drama of a nation, conceived in a worthy sense, represents that nation in its self-consciousness; it is the burning-mirror which receives the separate rays of the nation's innermost being while passing history is enticing them out of the depths, which condenses and concentrates them and thus kindles one century by means of another, and calls to life one glorious deed by means of another. Tragedy represents a people in its relation to the most important problems, its own as well as those of humanity in general. Comedy paints it in its natural aberrations and abnormalities, in its tendencies and endeavors which are directed earthward. Both must subsist together, in common development, and on an equal elevation, if we are to sum up the entire life of a nation, and give a true, eternal picture of its will-power and capacity, of its vacillations and defeats. This is the object which dramatic literature must always keep in view if it would be effectual. To be sure, it is possible to conceive a still higher species of drama, a tragedy which deals with man only in the abstract, with man in himself, in his mysterious relation to God and Nature; a comedy which lays nationalities themselves in their coffin and gaudily dresses up the corpse. But it is still an open question whether, under such a general domination of the idea of humanity as is presupposed in that case, art can continue to exist at all; and at any rate the time of this spirit-like domination is still far off, although literature has witnessed the production of many dramatic poems which seem to be designed for it.
It was many years ago that Tieck, on the subject of some wretched stuff by Clauren, made the remark that we had at last reached the cellar and must begin to ascend again. He was right in his remark, but, unhappily, not in the hope with which he accompanied it. Very far from hastening to leave the cellar, we have found it very comfortable down there; we have made ourselves at home as well as we could, and are hideously satisfied! Instead of the heroic spirit of our past ages, Jack Pudding now staggers out of the wings in a torn jacket and shows us what kind of humor is engendered by stupidity and brandy, when they have a rendezvous in the head of a porter. If Schiller and Goethe dare once to come out of their exile, then Nestroy's plum-pudding jinnee steps in their path, and they of course modestly give way to him. The magic worlds of Shakespeare and Calderon are already suffocated in their birth by the head-shaking of the stage-manager who must keep his machinery together

Order from Chaos: Linnaeus Disposes
The Linnaean inheritance
Linnaeus synthesized botanical efforts that accumulated through history and around the globe. His work stabilized botany as a discipline, making it logical, available to scholars around the world, and eventually accessible to a broad group of lay people. Foreigners flocked to Uppsala to study with Linnaeus, and his students included Falck, Kalm, Löfling, Forskål, Solander, Sparrman, Thunberg, and Swartz. Linnaeus taught them logical systematics and sent them off into the world. The map on the next page shows the paths by which Linnaean nomenclature attempted to make sense of the world. His students furthered Europe's knowledge of the world and increased non-European nations' knowledge of themselves.
Johan Peter Falck (ca.17321774) incorporated binomials into the report of his Russian explorations, revealing that cloth could be dyed yellow with Iris siberica's flowers and red with Galium spec. and that black currants and Actorus calamus had medicinal properties. Pehr Kalm diligently sent specimens from North America, with 90 of the 700 North American plants in Species Plantarum attributed to him. In Amsterdam Carl Peter Thunberg met with professors who were devotees of Linnaeus and who enabled his fruitful studies of South Africa, resulting in Prodromus Plantarum Capensium (Uppsala, 17941800) and Flora Capensis (Uppsala, 18071813).
But in addition to the work of his well-travelled and well-documented students, Linnaeus formed a lineage model of teaching botany that persists today; his students modeled their voyages on his and assumed scientific exploration would improve their homeland. Linnaeus' provincial explorations made Sweden more knowable to its inhabitants; under Linnaeus' guidance, botany became a national concern with its potential for exotic crop cultivation, transplantation, and import substitution. His garden's pineapples, watermelons, apricots, and peaches and his attempts to grow cotton and tea changed plantsmen's thinking on climate and naturalization.

Regardless, the stories of the fallen are finding their way into American homes.
On June 15, army private Robert Frantz of San Antonio mailed a letter home to his mother. He apologized to her for not writing more often, explaining the time constraints of 12-hour guard shifts plus daily patrol duty. And then he wrote: "Someone shot at us last night. I was getting ready to go to sleep and I hear a pop, pop, and then the bullets ricocheted off the building right outside the window I was standing in front of... It kinda sucks, when all you can think about is there's someone out there trying to kill you or your buddy next to you, and all you can do is hope you kill them first." Robert, 19, was killed two days later when he was struck by a grenade.
The president is right to worry that his re-election could be impeded by a steady drumbeat of casualty stories. He and his aides have tried to muffle them, accusing the media of looking only for the bad news in Iraq. The press corps, not wishing to be seen as disloyal to Americans, has of late been seeking and finding more good-news stories. Still, there's really no way for professional journalists to leave out the bad things that keep happening. After all, these men and women in uniform are giving their lives. They are fine young Americans, behaving most of the time with honor, discipline, and the wish to do good.
In the approximately nine months of the Iraq war, roughly 450 American soldiers have died, 69 percent in battle and the rest in "non-hostile" incidents that include friendly fire, suicides, and vehicle accidents. Another 2,500 have been wounded, all but 360 in combat. An additional few thousand have been MedEvacked out of the country for treatment of illnesses; more than 500 in this group were listed as psychiatric cases related to "combat stress, depression, anxiety."
Those are the antiseptic statistics, which tell us almost nothing about these men and women. Yet, usually, the numbers are pretty much the extent of the casualty information we get from the government and the major media on a daily basis. Only rarely do we see photographs of those who have sacrificed for their country, or read narratives about their lives. It seems downright strange, given how important they are to the nation's leadership and direction.
In a letter on October 14, Private First Class Rachel Bosveld, another 19-year-old, wrote to her mom in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Rachel described how she got "pretty banged up" and lost some of her hearing when an explosion hit her truck, but wrote that she had recovered it. "I'm doing fine, Mom," she wrote, adding, "Right now I'm soaking my feet. My feet take a beating in these boots... Feels soooooo good now, anyway. I guess I haven't been taking as good care of myself this month... Well Mom, my 20-minute soak is up. Take care. I love you. Don't worry so much about me, Mom, my intuition has already saved a few lives here and my own as well." Rachel was killed in a mortar attack on October 26.
Yes, the next presidential election could indeed hinge on how successful these citizen soldiers are in bringing peace and stability to Iraq. With the exception of the British and some modest military units from the slender list of nations in our "coalition of the willing," few others are likely to join the US force of 130,000 to tackle this monumental task. The Americans and British fought well and swiftly to defeat the army of Saddam Hussein and capture Baghdad in three weeks. But the aftermath has not gone as well.
Transforming ages of feudal and dictatorial rule into a democracy is hugely more difficult than waging a lightning war with superior forces against a weaker foe. Doing it in a hurry is impossible. Generals have learned this through history. But the civilian leaders in Washington who pushed for this war had no such experience -- and few qualms about barging in unprepared. Planning for the occupation -- as all of us, including our soldiers, now know -- was virtually nonexistent.

The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide
Wings Books, Jan 1, 1996 - Fiction - 815 pages
Finally, here they are in one outrageous volume--all six bestselling Hitchhiker stories by Douglas Adams, including his latest addition to the collection, "Mostly Harmless." Plus, you'll find a perplexingly frank introduction by the author himself, giving a behind-the-scenes look at the books and the zany radio series that inspired them.
"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: " Arthur Dent, mild-mannered, out-to-lunch kind of guy, is plucked from Earth just before it is demolished to make way for a hyperspace bypass. Towel in hand, he begins his journey through space and time with his rescuer Ford Prefect, a traveling researcher for the "Guide."
"The Restaurant at the End of the Universe: " The floor show is Doomsday while Arthur and Ford dine with Zaphod Beeblebrox, well-appendaged, ex-head honcho of the Universe, and Trillian, his human girlfriend.
"Life, the Universe and Everything: " Everything important and then some is examined in this third book, when Arthur Dent and his companions find they must avert Armageddon and save the Universe for life as we know it (or think we know it!)
"So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish: " Galaxy-weary space traveler Arthur Dent returns to Earth with his new voidoid gang to discover that it has been mysteriously reinstated.
"Young Zaphod Plays It Safe: " The two-headed hero travels to the depths of the ocean floor to investigate the mysterious destruction of the ship that "could one hundred percent positively never crash."
"Mostly Harmless: " Once again, Arthur Dent tries to return to Earth, but instead settles for an honorary position as master sandwich maker.
If you're just discovering Douglas Adams's galactic gangbuster of aseries, don't panic: "The Ultimate Hitchhiker's Guide: " is your chance to have it all! (Towel not included.)

Russia State Corporation Rostekh, which is involved in "modernization of industry" and the creation of high-tech industries in Russia, will start using the labor of prisoners.
As reported by Kommersant, Rostekh and the Federal Penitentiary Service (FSIN) are about to sign an agreement on the supply of prisoners to Rostekh enterprises.
Rostekh confirmed that the agreement exists, and is currently being "working out". According to a representative of the company, there is nothing surprising in that the state corporation intends to use the work of convicts.
The representative assured that there is plenty of work: Rostekh includes 14 holdings and more than 700 enterprises in dozens of industries. He clarified that the work of the prisoners will not be used "in the production of arms, military and special equipment, and in secret production".
"This practice will allow prisoners to acquire a wider range of skills and competencies that will increase their chances for successful socialization after they are released," a Rostekh representative said.
Last November deputy prime minister Olga Golodets said that the government was considering the possibility of sending convicts to state-owned companies, and a corresponding bill has been prepared and discussed.
This new type of punishment will be an alternative to imprisonment for a period from 2 months to 5 years.

See previous article as to why an electronic cigarette cartridges may heat up. The problem is due to a combination of archaic technology and of customer usage. But mainly customer usage.
The reason is because new smokers who are used to traditional cigarettes draw strong puffs to get a similar feeling – of lungs being filled with toxic tobacco smoke. But the key difference is that the real buzz/hit that goes with each puff depends on the amount of nicotine delivered per puff. It takes at least few seconds for the effect of nicotine to reach the newbie smoker's brain. Hence – outside of the psychological satisfaction – but from a practical standpoint it is quite meaningless for a vaper to draw long and hard. This results in a lesser satisfying, lesser relaxed vaping experience. Besides it causes heating of the ecig cartridge. So what is the vaper to do? A few suggestions:
a) Try to slow down: the most obvious is to slow down so that the cartridge has time to cool down
b) Take smaller puffs: takes more practice but can be lesser tiring for cheek muscles
c) Make your vaping sessions smaller: if you take 15 puffs per session reduce to 10-12. This allows the ecig cartridge to cool down
d) Choose a higher nicotine strength: this one is less obvious. But this will allow the ecig user to take fewer and smaller puffs with the same hit/buzz per session. But be careful as it may be too much nicotine for you to handle. There IS A DELAY for the nicotine's impact to reach your brain. Research options to your brand's compatible ecigs – retailers such as The Magic Mist provide not only cheaper quality alternates to ecig cartridges but also the same cartridges in higher strength.
e) Lessen the storage/shelf time between vaping sessions: once a fresh ecig cartridge has been 'broken in' the initial heating of the liquid causes the evaporation of the liquid into open air to speed up. This is especially pronounced if the ecig cartridge is kept in open air and not stored away in the box. Hence one should be cognizant that keeping cartridges open and attached on the ecig battery might be convenient but it reduces the life of the cartridge a bit. More relevant to this topic – the liquid dries up and can even burn the wick/sponge that is used to soak up the liquid.

Good evening, my fellow wine enthusiasts! Time sure flies when you're having fun! Or when you're absurdly busy with graduate school and with what little life exists beyond it. I had thought to wait to post my next blog until after I had completed finals this week, but a need to write something more exciting than a research paper has gotten the better of me. As well as the realization it's been nearly a month since my last post! In all fairness, I began writing this one almost two weeks ago. Then the guilt kicked in that I write too much on Cabernet Sauvignon, and not nearly enough on whites. The latter has been pointed out a few times, I do take it to heart. I couldn't let a perfectly good review go to waste (and Cabernet is my beloved, we all have one). So here it sat, in "draft" status, waiting for me to find a mate to accompany the Cabernet. I like to keep themes, so Milbrandt it was! And then the problem kicked in to find another wine. Or perhaps more accurately, the problem of time to look kicked in, and here we are, almost a month later.
Milbrandt Cabernet Sauvignon was a gift from my dad, as well as their Traditions 2010 Syrah (quite good, but I didn't take any notes). I wrote on their Rosé earlier this year, but it is their Syrah Rosé that stands out most in my mind. I hope they bring it back (hint, hint!). On the nose, this Cabernet presents with dark chocolate and cherry. The first sip opens up with chocolate and blackberry. As it really begins to open up, the blackberry is met with cassis (berry, tobacco), helping to really round out this smooth wine, before leading into a deep espresso, slightly lingering, finish. The tannins are soft in this medium-full bodied wine. I found this wine to be very enjoyable and will certainly buy it again. It is widely available in stores for around the price of $15. This is not a pure Cabernet (only 77%): 11% Malbec, 7% Petit Verdot, and 5% Syrah. Wine Spectator gave this Cabernet 90 points! Congrats, Milbrandt!
Winemakers notes: aromas of ripe plum, blackberry and subtle notes of mint. Layered dark cherry and mocha flavors, paired with gentle tannins and a full, luscious finish (pulled from http://www.milbrandtvineyards.com).
Milbrandt Traditions 2010 Cabernet Sauvignon: ★★★★ great wine
Milbrandt Pinot Gris 2011 is another wine I would recommend picking up. I have felt quite hit-and-miss (or really, just "miss") with Pinot Gris/Grigio lately and so I wasn't sure if I was terribly hopeful for this one or not. Actually, I haven't touched this white varietal since earlier summer, and chose instead to explore other white wines. Vin du Luc Pinot Gris is one I had with a friend a while back, and I really enjoyed it. Sadly, I can't find it anywhere! But back to Milbrandt: On the nose, this white welcomes you with crisp notes of honeydew and pear. The palate brings the melon forward, along with peaches. The body is crisp with a light minerality, semi-dry, and the finish is of green apple and grass. Being a young 2011, it has a brightness to it that I greatly enjoy in white wines. As with many whites, it pairs well with light seafood or a nice salad (as I enjoyed it). My husband won't touch white wines, so day two of this wine was really not too bad. It was a bit drier (common for whites, in my experience), but not "zap your mouth" dry, and the notes of pear in the sip were more pronounced. Certainly still drinkable! Also widely available, Milbrandt Pinot Gris retails for around $12-$13, and is currently sold out online. Must be good! I will buy this again. 100% Pinot Gris, 12.5% alcohol.
Milbrandt Traditions 2011 Pinot Gris: ★★★1/2 pretty good wine
Winemakers notes: dry and refreshing style with fruit aromas of Anjou pears, white peaches and notes of honeysuckle. It's medium-bodied and crisp on the palate with lively flavors of melon. (pulled from http://www.milbrandtvineyards.com).
For every wine there is a palate, and for every palate there is a wine….
Have you tried this wine before? Please share your thoughts in the comments below!

What Brits say v what they mean. Or rather a translation for the rest of the world.
As a Brit writing for a US publisher, I've had to relearn English. Yeah, seriously. I mean whose language is ENGLISH anyway? (insert winky face here :P). The grammar is different – they put a comma before the word 'and' for a start, and don't even get me started on the spelling. Z's (that's zed by the way) instead of s's and no u's and …. (is laughing quietly while writing this bit which you won't be able to see. And it has to be quiet. It's almost ten to two in the morning).
I often get comments back on the manuscript highlighting something I've put with a "huh?" in the margin. Not so much now… Well, occasionally I still manage to chuck something in that I understand perfectly, as would every other Brit who reads my books, which knocks my editor for six.
Anyway here are some of those things that other people have asked me to explain. If you can think of anymore, leave a comment and I'll do that next time.
Throw a spanner in the works - completely and utter mess something up for someone so it no longer works. Think tossing a spanner into a bike wheel and it jamming.
Spend a penny - go to the loo. Originally using the public toilets involved putting a 1p coin in the lock on the door. So you'd literally spend a penny to go to the loo. These days it's more like 50p in the train stations. Probably more in London.
It's monkeys outside or brass monkeys. Means its freezing. Cold enough to freeze the nuts off a brass monkey. Yes, I know they don't have them. It's a sailing metaphor.
Bangers and mash - sausages and mash potato. A British fave.
Oh and toad in the hole. Something my kids and hubby love. That's sausages in batter pudding (pancake mix.)
Shepherd's pie. That's minced lamb topped with mash.
Cottage pie – see above but use beef mince not lamb.
Spotted dick – a perfectly innocent and yummy sponge pudding with currants in. Served with custard. See picture.
Up the duff / knocked up/ bun in the oven – pregnant.
Knocked for six – something totally unexpected
See a man about a dog - where I'm going is none of your business
Blow a gasket – lose your temper suddenly and violently
Throw someone into the middle of next week – not wanna see them for a very long time
Boozer – pub.
Plastered / blotto / three sheets to the wind / paralytic - drunk
So if your 13yr old daughter came home and announced she was up the duff, you'd likely blow a gasket, be knocked for six and go see a man about a dog down the boozer until you're either three sheets to the wind or you'd calmed down enough not to want to commit murder or throw someone into the middle of next week.
Mobile - cell phone
Trousers = pants
Pants/knickers = women's underwear
Boxers/ y fronts = men's underwear
Suspenders = what women use to hold stockings up with (so a bloke saying he's got suspenders holding his pants up will send any Brit into hysterics. Quietly of course)
Time is another good one. Whereas we sometimes say six ten for example, its far more common place to use the words past or to. For example
Five past six – 6.05
Quarter after or quarter past six - 6.15
Half six or half past six - 6.30
Quarter before or quarter to seven - 6.45
Ten to seven – 6.50
And then there's the rubber. Stop sniggering and get your minds out of the gutters. I had Niamh in Thursday's Child pick up a rubber from her desk and throw it at her boss. I had to change it to eraser. ... It's a perfectly innocent little word in Britain. Every school kid has at least one rubber to rub out pencil marks! You can even get HUGE ones that read for BIG mistakes. If I'd have meant something else I'd have said it. Not that I would as I don't write that kind of fiction.
The houses we live in all have their own individual name as well as being a house. Yes, some of them have names too. Not telling you what my house is called. Anyway with pictures for you...
Semi-detached - Two houses joined together. Looks like one big one.
Terrace - three or more houses joined together. Sometimes all painted different colours (note the u in colour :P) Sometimes not. I live in one of these. Each house is totally self-contained.
Maisonette – a single house divided into two – upstairs is one living space. Downstairs is another. Call it two self-contained flats in one house. Each with its own entrance.
Hope these have helped shed some light on weird things we say. Like I said, if you have any more, comment either here or on FB and I'll do my best to address these in another post.
I'll be back next week with a look at British life. Cricket and pubs and village greens, parks, duck ponds, Sunday afternoon naps and photos,
Come back next week and find out then.
