Did you see the New York Times page one photo of newly-elected House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, gavel in hand, celebrating the start of the 110th Congress surrounded by a swarm of her grandchildren as well as other Congressional members' offspring? What did you think when you saw it?
I'm still sorting out my feelings–but I feel conflicted.
I wonder why Pelosi, a woman I admire, seemed so keen to use her first day as Speaker to portray herself as a traditional, family-first kind of woman? Sure, it was fun to see children working a room usually used for adults (who too often act like babies). But why not use those first, symbolic hours to surround yourself with all the Democratic women in the House–including the newly elected eight–and signal that this is "The Year of the Democratic Woman?" (That image would have also shown those newly elected alpha males, macho Dems the power women have in the new House!)
Where were the many images of the tough and shrewd politico, now the most powerful woman in American history, two heartbeats away from the presidency, who finally cracked what she calls "the marble ceiling" of the Capitol? What about the woman of impeccable style (though her suit certainly fit the bill) and doggedness who's been likened (not on the style quotient) to the late majority leader Tip O'Neill? What about the ambitious leader who's worked tenaciously to advance full equality and justice for women–of all kinds–not just moms.
But, maybe, as veteran women's rights activist Gloria Feldt put it, "like Nixon going to China, it takes what looks like a traditional woman to make lasting, radical changes in public policy." And it's not as if the image of Pelosi as mother figure isn't authentic; she's the only speaker whose first career was as a stay-at-home mom. She's led a multidimensional life–as do so many women today. In her case, she's now not only the leader of 233 Democrats, she's a mother of 5 and a grandmother of 6. And certainly her ascension means that little girls have a new role model–something the photo clearly signaled. As Congresswoman Rosa de Lauro, put it, "for every little girl who has wondered what she can be when she grows up the glass ceiling in this institution has been shattered forever."

The changing fashions in food have long fascinated HG. For example, beets, once despised, have become not just chic, but ubiquitous — you can hardly find a menu that doesn't include some form of a beet and goat cheese salad. HG has always found a beet (like vinegar) to be an enemy of wine. Nevertheless, in Paris the top bistros du vins have betteraves on their cartes. Raw fish was only found at Japanese sushi bars. Suddenly, raw tuna and chopped tartares of tuna and salmon became featured players. Even Italian restaurants (possibly influenced by the massive success of Esca and David Pasternack) have crudos among their appetizers. For a time, steak was dismissed as a boorish, unhealthy and unfashionable food. There was a reaction and carnivores rejoiced as more than a score of upscale steak houses opened in New York. "Small plates" have become fashionable. Is there sticker shock when hearty appetites do some big time grazing on these "small" plates with big time prices? Foam, sous vide, molecular are among the gastronomic buzz words of the past decade. HG, a conservative, is skeptical about these arcane techniques. Restaurants used to take pride in offering imported food from faraway places. Now, the very best chefs (like Marc Meyer of New York's Cookshop, Hundred Acres and Five Points) are determinedly "locavore," a trend HG endorses with enthusiasm.

The Joys of Liver
September 8th, 2013 § 2 comments § permalink
Liver. A much reviled organ here in America where it is habitually over-cooked into a grey, mealy tastelessness. In Europe, they know how to do calf's liver correctly. It is served pink and a rasher of bacon is not obligatory but is pleasant. In Paris, a thick hunk of calf's liver is often sauced in butter and sherry vinegar. HG has also enjoyed liver in Venice: Fegato (liver) Veneziano consists of very thin slices of liver cooked quickly in a hot pan with onions. Goes nicely with a mound of white polenta. HG/BSK never cook calf's liver at home. Admittedly, it is not a health food and BSK takes great pains in keeping HG alive. But, once in a while, an exception can be made and BSK makes that exception with delightful chicken livers. BSK sautes them beautifully so they are brown and crisp on the outside and pink inside. A very nice lunch consists of these chicken livers with mushrooms, onions and softly scrambled, creamy eggs. HG likes to cook chicken livers in a sauce of sauteed mushrooms, onions, garlic, olive oil and tomatoes which is served over fettucine. HG believes this was a favorite dish of the great tenor, Enrico Caruso.
Gratins: Spuds That Went To Heaven
September 5th, 2013 § 0 comments § permalink
As part of Exquisite Maiko's birthday dinner the other night, SJ prepared a real oldie-but-goodie: a gratin of cheese, onions and newly picked Prince Edward Island potatoes. A time honored rustic French dish that does not get enough play these days. It is called Gratin Dauphinois if cream is used as the braising/binding agent and Gratin Savoyard if beef stock is used instead. Thinly sliced potatoes are placed in a heavy casserole that has been strewn with chopped garlic. Butter, cheese and cream (or beef broth) are added and it is cooked in a moderately hot oven. The heat is turned up at the end (or the dish is placed under the broiler) so a nice brown crust is developed. It is the definition of comfort food. SJ added shavings of cheddar and swiss cheese to the dish as well as sliced onions. SJ used milk instead of heavy cream in the dish. Made SJ unhappy. Felt it made the gratin watery instead of unctuous. Too picky. HG found it super delicious. Gratins usually accompany roasted meat. HG finds this a mite heavy. HG likes a gratin to stand on its own, accompanied by nothing but a green salad and red wine. Garlic lovers might try to find James Beard's recipe for a gratin. HG recalls his gratin utilized olive oil, a bit of white wine and many, many cloves of thinly sliced garlic. Guaranteed to keep Count Dracula at bay.
Salmon Gets The Maiko Touch
September 2nd, 2013 § 2 comments § permalink
Getting bored with HG's press agentry for Exquisite Maiko's kitchen wizardry? Too bad. Stop reading. But, if you want to know how to make magic with farm raised salmon read on. After a day of Prince Edward Island beach fun, EM julienned the remaining vegetables in the refrigerator (cabbage, zucchini, peppers, mushrooms, onions) and tossed them in a bowl with a marinade of rice vinegar, sake, mirin and soy sauce. A slab of salmon was cut into manageable pieces about two fingers long and two fingers wide. These pieces were dusted in flour and sauteed until brown in canola oil. The salmon then went into the bowl, absorbing the the marinade flavors. The marinade had "cooked" the vegetables. This salmon dish was served with perfectly cooked rice, EM's braised Japanese eggplant and some sriracha (for HG, the sriracha addict). The sublime appetizer was EM's hand-made pork gyoza. EM will spend a day making gyoza and keeps batches in the freezer. EM has been cooking busily during her stay on PEI. HG's dream came true: Fantastic dishes prepared at home daily by a talented Asian chef. The dream ends as EM, SJ and family return to Brooklyn. Soon,HG/BSK will be back in New Mexico. There are culinary consolations. Awaiting HG in the high desert paradise HG shares with BSK: BSK's fabulous roast chicken. Adobo dusted pork chops. Green salads BSK prepares with the lettuces cultivated by HG/BSK's organic farmer neighbor. Braised escarole in broth with onions, garlic, pancetta and white beans. Green chile stew with peppers freshly roasted at the Santa Fe Farmers Market. Pasta showered with herbs from BSK's garden.BSK is a locavore and HG's palate reaps the benefits. And, when HG needs a respite from healthy home cooking, it is off to El Parasol Restaurant in Pojoaque for a steaming bowl of cholesterol rich menudo. Land of Enchantment, indeed.
HG's Delicious Lunch: Corn Fritters and Chicken Salad
September 1st, 2013 § 0 comments § permalink
After contributing nothing, except appreciation, to the sterling culinary efforts of HG/BSK's talented family, HG finally cooked something. Very blustery day on Prince Edward Island. An abundance of cooked corn and cold chicken in the refrigerator. Corn fritters and maple syrup preceded by chicken salad seemed like a good idea for a lunch while watching the roiling surf. Here's how HG made the crispy little, corn-filled fritter yummies: One cup of buckwheat pancake flour plus a beaten egg plus a cup of milk and a tablespoon of canola oil. A dash of baking powder. Mixed it all up. Scraped the kernels off five ears of cooked corn. Some more mixing. Fried spoonfuls in sizzling canola oil. Good stuff. On to the the Chicken Salad: First, HG added plenty of sliced scallions to the cut up chicken. (HG and BSK have a tendency to add scallions to almost everything but ice cream). In a bowl HG placed a healthy amount of Hellman's Mayonnaise (one of the few good supermarket perennials). Added a robust amount of curry powder (feel free to add a bit of cayenne if your curry powder is too mild). Mixed the chicken/scallions with the curry/mayonnaise. Plated it with a spoonful of mango chutney (and some peanuts for crunch.) (Unlike HG's beloved BSK, HG does not fancy chicken salad. The exception is when HG prepares it.)
HG often accompanies the Asian-flavored salad with papadums, the crisp Indian flatbread.The corn fritters brought back memories of the long-shuttered, wonderful Gage and Tollner Restaurant in downtown Brooklyn. G and T served a thick and juicy mutton chop with corn fritters and the combination worked beautifully. There was a dish on the G and T menu that HG never encountered elsewhere: Sauteed clam bellies. The rubbery tails were snipped off the tender bellies. The bellies got a light dusting in seasoned flour. A swift saute in bubbling butter. A squirt of lemon juice and a dash of hot sauce. Lovely appetizer. HG's going to make an effort to duplicate this dish and will report success or failure.

NFL owners will meet next week to consider changes to a game manual that says players "should" stand during the national anthem, a guideline the league has left to the discretion of players who kneeled in large numbers after criticism from U.S. President Donald Trump.
Commissioner Roger Goodell told club executives Tuesday in a memo obtained by The Associated Press that the anthem issue is dividing the league from its fans. He said the NFL needs "to move past this controversy."
NFL spokesman Joe Lockhart said the guidance will be "front and centre on the agenda" when owners meet in New York next Tuesday and Wednesday.
The movement started by former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick last season over his view of police mistreatment of black males had mostly subsided when Trump told a rally in Alabama last month that owners should get rid of players who kneel during the anthem.
In his memo, Goodell reiterated the league's belief that everyone should stand for the anthem and outlined plans to highlight efforts of players trying to bring attention to the social issues behind the game-day protests. Goodell said those plans would be presented to owners next week.
"The controversy over the anthem is a barrier to having honest conversations and making real progress on the underlying issues," Goodell wrote. "We need to move past this controversy, and we want to do that together with our players."
Lockhart said he wasn't sure if players would be included in discussions during the league meetings. Most teams practice on one or both of those days. Houston and Detroit are the only teams with byes next week. The NFL Players Association didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
The game manual says that during the anthem, "players on the field and bench area should stand at attention, face the flag, hold helmets in their left hand, and refrain from talking." It is the NFL's only known guidance on the subject.
Current guidelines include potential fines
The manual also says anyone not on the field by the start of the anthem can be fined or suspended. Lockhart said the league so far has chosen not to discipline any players. He sidestepped a question of whether "should" would be changed to "must" next week.
"I think there will be a discussion about the entire issue including the policy, including all of the various elements that have been raised over the last four weeks," Lockhart said. "I'm not going to predict what might happen."
The guidelines have existed for several years but player behaviours varied until recent years, when the NFL signed a contract with the U.S. government involving military tributes.
The anthem issue flared again Sunday when Vice-President Mike Pence, a former Indiana governor, left Indianapolis' home game against San Francisco after about a dozen 49ers players knelt during the anthem.
A few hours later, Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys became the first owner to declare publicly that he would bench any players for what he saw as disrespect of the American flag. Jones's comments drew a swift response from union Executive Director DeMaurice Smith, who said Jones was contradicting assurances from Goodell that players could express themselves without reprisals.
Jones said on his radio show Tuesday that he considered anthem protests a workplace issue, giving him the right to punish his players. He said he was trying to keep the Cowboys out of the debate by declaring that they would all stand.
"I don't want our fans to sit there and have angst over those type of issues," Jones said. "I'm not going to have a situation with the flag that there is a debate over whether we're respecting it or not. I'm clearing that one up."
The Cowboys always stand for the anthem while lined up on the sideline. Two weeks ago before a Monday night game in Arizona, they kneeled arm-in-arm before the anthem — with Jones — then stood during the singing when the flag was displayed. It was three days after Trump's comments in Alabama.
Good morning. My statement. pic.twitter.com/l7KXZrZi2o
Trump tweeted his support of Jones after the owner made the threat to bench players following a loss to Green Bay. They spoke by phone after the game in Arizona.
"We would certainly support the NFL coming out and asking the players to stand, just as the president has done," White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Tuesday. "We support the national anthem, the flag and the men and women who fought to defend it."
Goodell wrote to league executives about "unprecedented dialogue with our players," saying those discussions helped build the plan that owners will discuss next week.
"Everyone involved in the game needs to come together on a path forward to continue to be a force for good within our communities, protect the game, and preserve our relationship with fans throughout the country," Goodell wrote. "The NFL is at its best when we ourselves are unified."
The NFLPA has not commented specifically about next week's meeting, but after Jones's comments, executive director DeMaurice Smith on Monday warned the owners against "retribution" of players exercising what he sees as their Constitutional rights.

One killed as flash floods hit three Assam districtsMay 28th, 2009 - 8:33 pm ICT by IANS
Guwahati, May 28 (IANS) One person was killed and thousands were affected as flash floods, caused by the release of water from dam reservoirs in China and Bhutan, submerged low lying areas of three districts in Assam, officials said here Thursday.
"Even though there has been no major rainfall after Tuesday night, the water level of the Brahmaputra rose substantially at Dibrugarh in eastern Assam after China released water from their dam reservoirs," said an official of the state revenue, relief and rehabilitation department.
Similarly, Beki river created havoc in Barpeta and Baksa districts in western Assam as Bhutan released water form its dam reservoirs.
"One person was reportedly killed and thousands took shelter in safer places as flash flood in Beki river created havoc in Barpeta and Baksa districts in western Assam," the official added.
According to official reports available here, about 150 villages in Barpeta and Baksa districts have been inundated so far. Standing crops in about 200 hectares have been washed away by the flood water.
"The surface connectivity with the two districts has been badly hit as a number of wooden and bamboo bridges have been taken away by the waters and the concrete bridge over river Beki at Domnighat has also been damaged," the official added.

Searching for WMD'S in the Northeast
Keller Williams is currently gigging with his new band, the WMD'S. This group, which features Williams, Keith Moseley, Gibb Droll and Jeff Sipe, debuted earlier this year at Summer Camp but otherwise has remained in southern climes. However the band has announced some limited 2008 dates, which includes at least one performance north of the Mason-Dixon line, with additional area gigs presumably to follow. On February 23 the group will be at the Sugarloaf Ski Resort in Carrabassett Valley, ME. The WMD'S also have confirmed two Texas performances: on January 25 at the Dallas House of Blues and on the 26th at La Zona Rosa in Austin. Tonight the band is in Ft. Lauderdale at Revolution.

So what have I done in the last week? Not as much as I was hoping for. Oops. I have learned a couple of things about how to do one specific exercise to not trigger aches and pains that come from moving the wrong way.
I've learned the best way to do push-ups without triggering wrist pain: get in girly-style (knees on the ground) and then put my hands a couple of inches in from the edge of my mini-trampoline. By doing it this way, I was able to knock out 20 with no subsequent pain in the wrist. I tried it going the other way (hands on the ground, knees on the trampoline), but that was a lot more uncomfortable. I felt like if I keep doing it that way (the second way), I will most likely end up causing the wrist pain that lasts for days. The other way I can do them is in a "standing" position by planting my feet quite a way away from the end of the bed and then using the bed-rail for my hands.
I was standing a lot more to watch whatever show was on TV rather than parking my rear on the couch. And while standing, I started doing squats (just not super low yet). I was even able to hold the squat for around 30 seconds, and did that more than once. I also remember doing some awkward looking leg-lifts while brushing my teeth at night a few nights.
Hopefully I'll do better this coming week!

An Australian woman whose ceiling collapsed on her blames rats, and she says the vermin are eating her house from the inside out.
Ann Barker said that her daughter had to pull her out from beneath the rubble after the bathroom ceiling at her Melbourne home came down on her Tuesday.
She told 3 AW that her new house, which she has only lived in for four months, has suffered serious damage due to an apparent infestation by rats.
"At this stage they've chewed through nine pipes, and I've got two more leaks," Barker said. "There were holes under my veranda and holes on the corner of the roof where the guttering is. I'm waiting for someone to check the rest of the roof."
She says that neither the home builder nor her insurance will help her. And it appears she's not the only person in the area to report problems with rats.
According to News.com.au, a woman who lives in the suburb of Dandenong in southeast Melbourne, called into a radio show to complain that homes in her area have been plagued by rats.

Base recipe adapted from BBC Good Food
Makes approximately 28 cookies
- 175g of Terry's Chocolate Orange, chopped (1 box)
- Zest of 1 large orange
- 150g unsalted butter, softened
- 80g light brown sugar
- 80g caster sugar
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 large egg
- 225g plain flour
- 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
- 1/8 tsp salt
- Preheat oven to 170°C. Line baking tray with non-stick baking parchment.
- Cream the butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
- Add the vanilla extract, egg and orange zest and beat until creamy and well combined.
- Sieve the flour, bicarbonate of soda and salt and add this to the mixture. Mix to combine.
- Add in the chopped Terry's Orange Chocolate pieces and fold in using a spatula.
- Use a small ice-cream scooper to place even amounts of dough on your lined baking tray.
- Bake for 8 – 10 minutes until the cookie edges turn a light brown colour. This results in a soft chewy cookie.
- Using a cooling rack, leave to cool for a few minutes before enjoying.
- Feel free to use a tablespoon to scoop and measure your cookie dough if you do not have a small ice-cream scoop available.
- This dough freezes extremely well and so the mixture does not need to be baked all at once.

The key aspect of Beaujolais is that the crus are largely regarded separately from Beaujolais and Beaujolais-Villages wines and appear to be doing just fine. The crus are wines from the towns and places of Saint-Amour, Julienas, Chénas, Moulin-à-Vent, Fleurie, Chiroubles, Morgon, Régnié, Brouilly and Côte de Brouilly. Interestingly, the locals regard Côte de Brouilly as the most worthy of the crus, Moulin-à-Vent is the longest lived and most pinot noir like in time and Fleurie seems to be the UK market's Beaujolais of choice. As my tastings found, there is a certain logic in these outcomes.
Cave du Château de Chénas
Unsurprisingly, the Cave du Château de Chénas is in Chénas. The wines here were a great insight into the respective attributes of the Beaujolais crus, which are rarely seen together in any detail on Australian shores. The quality proved to be very good, and the prices as ever for this region, low.
Beaujolais Blanc 2014
From 4 year old vines. Lemon and lime aromatics. Lemon and yellow grapefruit on the palate. A
Saint-Amour 2014
80% destemmed. Aromatics of pepper, raspberry and anise. Palate reminds of rubber, smoke and anise. A
Brouilly 2014
Aromatics of liqueur, cassis and raspberry. Short to medium length and fruitier style on the palate. A-G
Fleurie 2014
Raspberry and more white pepper than preceding wines. Similar characters. Balanced. G
Julienas 2014
Similar aromatics to the Fleurie, reminding of white pepper and raspberry. Less strength on the palate. A-G
Morgon 2014
Aromatics of white pepper and raspberry. A little bit of cherry on the palate, and some tannins. A-G
Chénas 2014
Raspberries and strawberries on the nose. Palate with tannins evident. The comment was made that Chenas more generally can be rustic with higher acidity. A-G
*Moulin-à-Vent 2014
This is a good wine. Aromatics of plum, raspberry and white pepper. The palate has mid range tannins, medium length and similar flavours. G
*Chénas Selection Couer de Granit 2014
This is still in vat. Super fruity aromatics that are floral and remind of raspberries and cherries. The palate is fruity, with tannins and similar characters. The new winner. G-VG
*Moulin-à-Vent Couer de Granit 2014
Also still in vat. Raspberry and plum aromatics. More acid on the palate, with a gaseous prickle. Seems like it will be good. G
|A real cellar.
The vintage is not a typo. What an extraordinary wine this was to finish on, drawn from the (very) cold cellars of the Cave du Château de Chénas. Aromatics of cherry, earth and game. So pinot noir like. The palate is gamey, earthy and smokey. This is an outstanding wine, proving that Moulin-à-Vent is capable of producing wines that age effortlessly for a quarter of a century. Buy them if you can find them, and they have been stored well. VG
Cave du Château des Loges
The Cave du Château des Loges is located in the town of Le Perréon at the southern end of Beaujolais. Here, we undertook a 2013 v. 2014 vintage exercise with the reds, an outstandingly instructive way to taste. In terms of comparisons between the vintages, the impact of pH on the wine was viewed as being of some importance. In this regard, while the tartaric acid of the wines in each vintage were almost the same, the pHs in the 2014s were higher, leading to a rounder mouthfeel. Lower pH tends to express itself with more forceful acidity.
The whites
Out of tank. This is quite minerally in impression, with florals too with some effort. There is no real mouthfeel on the palate. Inoffensive. A
Beaujolais Blanc 2014
Aromatics of lemon. The palate is also lemony with some acidity. Not bad. A-G
Beaujolais Rosé 2014
Floral aromatics. Floral palate, medium acidity. Pleasant if unremarkable. A
The reds
Beaujolais Villages
2013: Aromatics of raspberry, cassis and some bacon. The palate is similar, with some tannins and structure. A-G
2014: More strawberry, verging on strawberry jam. An even palate. A-G
2013: raspberry, plums and spice aromatics. Quite structured. A-G
2014: raspberry, plums. Medium acid, similar flavours on palate. A bit better. G
2013: aromas of raspberry and strawberry. More acid evident on the palate, with tannins. Similar flavours on palate to the aromatics. G
2014: a quieter wine, with raspberry and more acid on the palate. G
Côtes de Brouilly
It was hard not to be influenced by this being the locals' preferred cru.
2013: aromatics of cherry, that were finer and seemed more integrated. Medium tannins on the palate, relatively serious in intent, the length only short to medium though. G
2014: aromatics of blackcurrant, florals and game. Sweet cherry and medium tannins on the palate. A-G
2013: More fruity with raspberry and strawberry. This is a completely different style to the Côtes de Brouilly. Similar palate (to the nose) with medium tannins. G
2014: Cherry, raspberry aromatics. Similar palate, with medium tannins. G
Vignerons des Pierres Dorées
The final tasting of my tour de Burgundy was near the unquestionably scenic town of D'Oingt. In typical French style, D'Oingt has been formally ranked as among the most beautiful towns in France. There was a bit of energy around the Vignerons des Pierres Dorées, which I quite liked and a rather eclectic selection of wines followed. Some of the Beaujolas whites and reds see a small amount of oak.
The whitesThis is a well regarded estate. Aromatics of cedar, toast and oak. Medium acid, vanilla and stone with mid length on the palate. The oak won't appeal to all, and is a little heavy handed, but it is clearly a good wine. G
Beaujolais Blancs (chardonnay) are not a bad value wine choice for a wine I barely new existed prior to this tour. They can resemble the whites of the Mâcon and the ones with good acidity are quite a refreshing style.
Chateau de Chanzé Beaujolais Blanc 2012
Beaujolais Blancs (chardonnay) are not a bad value wine choice for a wine I barely new existed prior to this tour. They can resemble the whites of the Mâcon and the ones with good acidity are quite a refreshing style.
Chateau de Chanzé Beaujolais Blanc 2012
Rostre de Bélemnite Beaujolais Blanc 2012
Vinified in oak. Aromatics of match stick and nectarines. The palate has medium length and acid. G
Terra Iconia Beaujolais Blanc 2014
Aromatics of stone, lemon and yellow grapefruit. Palate of lemon and stones supplemented by medium acidity. A-G
2012: A bit socky, reminding of wet wool. Probably oxidised and promptly replaced with the 2013.
2013: Aromatics of apricot stew. A bit simple on the palate. A
The rosés
Terra Iconia Rosé 2014
Aromatics of strawberry. Palate that is fresh and reminds too of strawberries. A-G
Carré Rosé 2014
Floral aromatics. Strawberry on the palate, slightly less line. A
The reds
Raspberry, compot fruits. Similar palate and quite supple. A-G
Terra Iconia Beaujolais Bio 2013
Bio means organic in French, with the little hard to see green symbols on the left of the bottle in the picture above providing evidence to those willing to search really hard for it. Raspberry, pepper and fruit compote. More going on the palate. Fruity. G
*La Rose Pourpre Vieilles Vignes Beaujolais 2014
2014: Minimum of 40 year old wines. Raspberry and plum aromatics. Plums, raspberry, medium length and good concentration on the palate. The pick of the tasting. G
2013: Raspberry and plums aromatics. Similar palate with light tannins. Less concentration, but still good. A-G
Rostre de Bélemnite Beaujolais 2013
Aromatics of vanilla. Palate of vanilla too, with medium length and raspberry. Vanilla quite strong, suggesting a heavy oak hand. Good wine otherwise. A-G
*Laforet Beaujolais 2012
Aromatics of raspberry and cedar. Similar palate, with medium acid and really rather good length. This is quite a serious wine, and is recommended. G
*Le Collins Altieres Beaujolais 2012
Aromatics of cherry, earth, raspberry and cedar. The palate reminds of cherry and cedar with towards long length. Good too. G
Late harvest styles
The final two wines were both late harvested styles, neither typical of the region but somehow fitting to finish on.
Derniers Grains Viognier Vendage Tardive
Aromatics of raisin. Palate reminding of raisins and apricot. Balanced with good acidity on residual sugar on the palate. This style of viognier worked. G
Derniers Grains Chardonnay Vendage Tardive
I am not sure I have ever tasted a late harvest chardonnay that comes together. Lemon, residual sugar on the palate, with acidity tasting separate. A
This concludes a most enjoyable visit and thank you for putting up with such long posts in the last few weeks. I am very much grateful to the Wine & Spirits Education Trust, Bibendum PLB, the producers I have named and Robin Kinahan MW for their time, effort and kind support and guidance in supporting this trip, which proved an outstanding educational experience.

text: There was some modest consolation for home buyers in the figures for deals in the second quarter of 2017. According to figures published by the Central Bureau of Statistics, the average sale price of housing units fell from NIS 1.49 million in the first quarter to NIS 1.43 million in the second quarter of the year, a 3.8% drop (the exact difference was NIS 57,200). RELATED ARTICLES CPI unexpectedly fell in July, home prices rising New home sales up in June This is a very steep drop, after the media (and the Ministry of Finance, of course), proclaimed a 2.9% decrease in housing prices in the first quarter. How can home prices be rising (according to that same Central Bureau of Statistics), when the average price fell? It turns out that while a considerable number of Israelis are now waiting for buyer fixed price plan lotteries (or for the lotteries' effect on the market), others have chosen to buy a cheaper, more remote, or smaller home. Modesty, settling for less, and willingness to adjust spending to income are always praiseworthy, but we shall have to wait several years to see whether Israelis have really decided to compromise and settle for less, or whether they are simply sick and tired of high housing prices, and have bought a home, just so that they will own one. This is not necessarily done in haste, but it can be assumed that it is also not always a completely rational decision by people looking for a roof over their heads suitable for their family. Again and again, we see Israelis not taking the price of traveling to a remote home into account in such an important decision (a price that includes both the money and the time spent on travel), the price of moving from a small home to the next one (Israelis are generally in a hurry to establish a family), and so forth. Before proceeding to analyze the brand new data, however, we should note that the most important thing is concealed behind them (and in the archives). Last May, the Central Bureau of Statistics reported that the average home price in the first quarter was NIS 1.45 million, compared with NIS 1.49 million in the fourth quarter of 2016. This was an especially significant figure, because the reported monthly housing price index also fell (a decline that vanished later in the revised report). "Globes" informed its readers in May that the change in the average purchase price of a home constituted "the steepest decline since 2007." Three months later, however, the first quarter average was upwardly revised, and it turns out that it did not fall at all; in point of fact, the updated average price for the first quarter published last week showed a rise of NIS 2,000 in comparison with the preceding quarter. But who remembers the first quarter figures and the now canceled fall in prices? Better to take comfort in the new and even sharper decline (3.8%), before it, too, vanishes with next quarter's revision.

The Thayer Institute exists for the purpose of imparting to (certain) others some powerful ways of doing good in the world (especially in organizations).
The Thayer Institute exists to equip leaders with the thinking, the character and the tools required to fulfill their causes and purposes in life and to become THE premier training institute of choice for serious leaders worldwide, enabling them and their organizations to achieve sustainable performance virtuosity.
The Thayer Institute for Performance Virtuosity was founded in 2014 by Dr. Lee Thayer and Chris Comeaux in order to take into the world Dr. Thayer's powerful concepts that he developed in the trenches working with organizations to set them on a path towards high-performance. Dr. Thayer has written extensively on these concepts in many of his books. Some of those books are Leadership: Thinking Being Doing, The Competent Organization, The Good Leader, How Leaders Think, Leadership Virtuosity, and How Executives Fail.
The Thayer Institute uses classes and Master certification programs to certify individuals who are on the learning journey to enable them to be competent in these powerful concepts so they can go out and change the world, their organization, their community, their family, or any group looking to make a difference.
In addition, Dr. Thayer and Chris Comeaux co-founded Aletheia House Publishers and Creators to publish Dr. Thayer's books as well as to create materials that serve as great learning aides to be catalysts for others to aid them on their path to high performance. Such materials are Leadership Lessons Navigator where great leadership lessons are extracted from movies and study materials are created around the movie. We also have developed a thought prodding tool called "The Oracle" that can be used to provoke thinking around Dr. Thayer's concepts, the tool can be used individually in your study and reading and also can be used in groups to provoke discussion around the concepts. See our many materials we have available.
Mr. John McBeth has been a senior executive in high-technology services firms for over 30 years. In 1995, while serving as CEO for a technology company, he heard Dr. Lee Thayer speak about high-performance organizations. Mr. McBeth has worked on and off with Dr. Thayer since. He is currently President and CEO of Next Century Corporation and is the current Chairman of the Board for the Thayer Institute of Performance Virtuosity.
Carole Fisher serves as Chief Executive Officer of Nathan Adelson Hospice. Ms. Fisher has a proven track record in leading not-for-profit and for profit healthcare organizations. Under her direction, her organization is recognized as the hospice of choice, employer of preference and training center of excellence in Southern Nevada. In 2015, Ms. Fisher attained her Master of Leadership Arts and Sciences from the Thayer Institute.

Joelle Moles is best known for her abilities to provoke better ways of thinking and doing amongst those working to create high-performance organizations. Whether engaging students at the Thayer Institute of Leadership Virtuosity or performing her role as VP of Operations at D'Artagnan, a high-end meat purveyor to world-class chefs, Joelle leaves both people and organizations more competent as a result of working with her.
Joelle acquired her skills in positions carefully chosen to challenge and expand her thinking. In 2011, she singled out D'Artagnan for the highly entrepreneurial role they offered: to build and lead all aspects of their envisioned Midwest expansion. Starting in a home office with just 10 accounts and an annual revenue of $200,000, she created the team and operational infrastructure that brought revenues in over 10M within four years.
While D'Artagnan provided the opportunity to create competency within a high growth model, Joelle's chef career in the upper most echelon of restaurants and hotels for over two decades prior provided the scenarios to practice the nuts and bolts of creating and maintaining high-performance organizations. Chef Tournant at the Peninsula Chicago, acting Executive Chef at the Peninsula Beverly Hills and US representative to the opening of the Peninsula Shanghai highlighted the importance of systems and processes to achievement. Saucier at Spiaggia, lead line chef for Rick Bayless and assistant to World Pastry Cup winner, En Ming Hsu, exemplified the difference between minding the world in terms of accomplishments versus activities. And Garde Manger Chef at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, voted #1 in the country during her tenure as well as culinary ambassador to the Four Seasons George V in Paris, underscored the necessity of holding others accountable.
The imagination and people-making skills required of Joelle in her various roles ultimately had their foundations in her Cultural Anthropology studies at Carleton College, an English degree from Northwestern University and extensive travel via exchange programs and scholarships in France, England and Italy.

Following a hugely successful first round of the Health Service Modelling Associate (HSMA) Programme, a second round of the scheme – HSMA 2018 - has been launched, a joint initiative between PenCLAHRC and the South West Academic Health Science Network (SW ASHN).
The HSMA Programme is a scheme run by PenCLAHRC's operational research team, PenCHORD. Working directly with staff from NHS organisations in Devon, Cornwall and Somerset, the programme aims to support the increased use of operational research within health service development and decision making. A number of NHS staff from...Read more
Staff from NHS Trusts across the South West came together with PenCLAHRC researchers to celebrate the success of an innovative programme aimed at tackling problems faced by the health service.

Tercio Creativo Show Off 50mm of Bad Attitude
June 16, 2013 by dracs
Tercio Creativo are continuing to work on their recently announced board game Dies Irrae and to just to peak our interest they have shown off a WIP for one of the miniatures.
From these previews we can already see just what sort of character Tercio Creativo are bringing to life.
Named Basajaun he is described by Tercio Creativo as being "50 mm of muscles, fur and bad mood."
Tercio Creativo have created some of the greatest 28mm scale historical style character models on the market. It is interesting to see them step outside their usual scale, but they are definitely bringing their sculpting expertise to the fore. The only thing I would say is that something appears to be wrong with his pectoral muscles. I understand he is supposed to be rippling with muscles, but at the moment it looks like he has the world's first 10 pack taking over his torso.
Are any of you excited for the Dies Irrae?

Palms: Car Crashed into Nursing Home, Injuring Two
Comments (0)
At about 10:30 p.m. on Sunday, February 2, 2014, a car crashed into a nursing home, injuring two people in Palms. The vehicle backed up into a senior care center located in the 3500 block of Overland Avenue. One person was pinned under the car; however, the Los Angeles Times reported that it was not immediately clear if either of the victims were residents of the convalescent home. Authorities are investigating the accident.
Throughout Los Angeles County, motor vehicle collisions claimed the lives of 542 people and caused injury to 72,056 in 2011, according to the California Highway Patrol's Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System. Nighttime accidents, those which occurred between 9 p.m. and 2:59 a.m., accounted for 6,701 of the traffic-related injuries and deaths that occurred in the county that year. Across the state, 2,791 lives were lost in collisions.
In California, when a motorist's recklessness or negligence results in an accident that causes injury, the victims may hold the motorist liable for the expenses related to their recoveries by filing civil claims. To learn more about the civil claims process, please call 866-981-5596 or contact us online.
Everyone at Allen, Flatt, Ballidis, and Leslie would like to wish a full recovery to the two people who were injured when the vehicle crashed into the nursing home in Palms.
