Italian Paintings 1250-1450
Joseph leads the ass that the Virgin and Child ride as two handmaidens, one with a bundle on her head, follow. As in the Visitation, (Philadelphia Museum of Art, John G. Johnson Collection cat. 124), golden rays emanate from the maidens' heads. They are presumably the same attendants, but now they are barefoot and wear simple dress. As the group passes, a palm tree bows. This may refer to an incident recounted in the Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew concerning a palm tree that bowed down to give its fruit to the Holy Family during a rest on their fight to Egypt.1 The palm frames the grotto in the hill where Christ was born. It is early morning and the sun has just risen, chasing light and clouds over the hills and faraway city. The attention given to the depiction of the landscape and the atmospheric effects suggests a close familiarity with the predella panel of the same subject in Gentile da Fabriano's Adoration of the Magi, finished in May 1423 (see Florence, Galleria degli Uffizi, no. 295).
Keith Christiansen (verbal communication, May 17, 1984) noted that these four panels formed the predella to an altarpiece, of which the main panels are in the Staatliche Museen in Berlin (see Berlin, Staatliche Museen Preussischer Kulturbesitz, Gemäldegalerie, nos. 1123, 1136): in the center was the Annunciation; on the left, Saint Jerome; and on the right, Saint Lawrence. Ferdinando Bologna (1955) had previously noted the predella panels' connection with the two saints, then in East Berlin, but had not made the association with the Annunciation, then in West Berlin.2 Stylistically similar are two small panels (see Wroclaw, Poland, Muzeum Narodowe, no. viii-742, 741) showing the apostles Peter and Paul, which may come from the left and right pilasters of the altarpiece.
Berenson's 1913 catalogue entry on the panels was unusually long. Noting that the painter of the predella had been influenced by Lorenzo Monaco, Gentile da Fabriano, and Fra Angelico, he tried to explain this diversity of sources by suggesting that the artist was a Marchigian working in Florence, most likely Arcangelo di Cola da Camerino. He published this opinion again (1929a, p. 142), but with some qualification: "I still hesitate, even though we know the artist so much better now, but I hesitate less." In 1932 he hesitated no more and assigned them definitely to the painter. Richard Offner, in a lecture given in Philadelphia in 1926, contested Berenson's 1913 designation of them as "Umbro-Florentine," which Offner categorized as "a name derived from the theory that Gentile Fabriano influenced some of the Florentines." He described the Flight into Egypt as being particularly Masaccio-like.
Roberto Longhi (1940) was the first to recognize that the Johnson Collection's pictures were the work of Paolo Schiavo, dating them before the cycle in Castiglione Olona of the mid-1430s, and more specifically sometime after 1423, because of their stylistic relation to the predella of Gentile da Fabriano's Strozzi Adoration of the Magi. While Schiavo's altarpiece may have been done sometime in the late 1420s and therefore relatively early in his career, a later dating cannot be completely excluded. Miklós Boskovits (1995a) proposed a date of about 1430-35 for the predella. The Virgin of the Annunciation in the main panel is quite similar to the one in Schiavo's signed mural of 1436 in San Miniato al Monte.3 In addition, similar figures of the Virgin and the archangel Gabriel in the main panel reoccur in other murals by Schiavo: the Annunciation in the tabernacle of the Olmo4 in Castello, near Florence, which dates to 1437, and the much later Annunciation in the oratory of Santa Maria Assunta at Le Querce, commissioned by the Mannelli family in the 1460s.5
The original provenance of the altarpiece is not known. Schiavo's tax records of 1427 give no record of any outstanding sums owed to him that might help trace its patronage, and his later tax declarations have not been located. It is not improbable that the altarpiece could have been painted for a church outside Florence, possibly during the painter's sojourns in Rome and Lombardy between 1427 and 1436. It was in fact during this time that the trilobe shape of the main panels in Berlin began to go out of favor in Florence but less so elsewhere.

Graziano da Silva congratulates South Africa on Defeat Hunger initiative
30 January 2014, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia - FAO Director-General José Graziano da Silva congratulated President Jacob Zuma of South Africa on the country's Fetsa Tlala (Defeat Hunger) Integrated Food Production Initiative when the two leaders met on the sidelines of the African Union Summit.
The initiative was approved by the South African Cabinet as the national food security programme with a target to plant at least one million hectares of land. The Director-General praised the government's effort and congratulated Zuma on the good progress South Africa has made towards eradicating hunger.
Zuma thanked FAO for promoting food security in Africa and encouraging countries to achieve the first Millennium Development Goal hunger target.
The two principals discussed South Africa's important role in the region, both as a major market for food products and as a supplier of services, industrial products and technical assistance. The Director-General praised the support South Africa gave to Lesotho for its food security initiative, along with FAO and WFP.
Zuma and Graziano da Silva also discussed the World Forestry Congress (WFC) that South Africa will co-host with FAO from 7 to 11 September 2015. This is the first World Forestry Congress organized on the African continent, and Da Silva thanked South Africa for its support.
Finally the two leaders discussed the reorganization of the fisheries sector, for which the Director-General underlined FAO's support.

Nintendo always seems to find an innovative control angle for its home and portable systems, and Wii U and 3DS are no exception. With both of Nintendo's latest machines utilizing touch-screen elements, would Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Super Smash Bros. for 3DS use any touch-based inputs? I asked series creator Masahiro Sakurai.
well considering that it is a fighter and will have 3 other players using the other gamepads then why would hey want someone having the use of touchscreen?
Surprised a 5th player can't join in and add mayhem with random item drops or environmental manipulation etc while others are fighting it out, something similar to what can be done in NSMBU with the touch screen. An oversight for sure, Nintendo dissapointed me yet again.
How about: Make Smash competitive. Thats all I ask. Not Brawl. It doesnt have to be Melee. Just competitive with a high skill ceiling.
Melee was hands down the most technical fighter of the last decade. Brawl watered it down. I want something back.

Baby Boy's Bright and Serene Space
Name: Baby Boy (due Dec.)
Location: Washington, D.C.
Color Inspiration: We love bright colors but also wanted to create a calm environment. We initially selected a soft gray, bright blue and lime green as the color palette. However, once we saw a horizontal branch used in a Blue Owl Nursery on Project Nursery we wanted to copy it exactly (and we did!). From there we incorporated yellow, orange and white throughout the room.
Tip for Using Color: Don't worry about things matching too well and let the color palette evolve as the room develops.
Colors Used: Behr Flint Smoke, Fire Island, Citrus Splash, Appletini and Glidden Caribbean Sea.
Thanks for your colorful entry Stacey & Brad and good luck!

BEIJING (Reuters) - China's disgraced former senior politician, Bo Xilai, will go on trial next week, a Beijing-backed Hong Kong newspaper said on Friday, in what would be the final act of a drama that has shaken the ruling Communist Party.
Bo, once a contender for the top leadership in the world's second-largest economy, was ousted in China's biggest political scandal in two decades last year following his wife's murder of a British businessman, Neil Heywood.
The mainland China-run Ta Kung Pao newspaper said on its website that Bo's trial would start on Monday in the southern city of Guiyang and last three days. It cited "well-informed Beijing sources", but gave no details.
One of Bo's lawyers, Li Guifang, declined to comment when reached by telephone. Reuters was unable to reach his second lawyer, Wang Zhaofeng, despite repeated telephone calls.
A court official in Guiyang who gave his family name as Li said he had not heard anything about the case.
"The case has not yet even been put forward for prosecution," he added.
A source with direct knowledge of the case told Reuters he "had not heard" that the trial would begin next week.
China's Foreign Ministry, typically the only government department which regularly fields questions from foreign reporters, said questions about Bo's trial should be referred to the "relevant authorities" and declined further comment.
Telephone calls to the Central Committee for Discipline Inspection, the party's top corruption fighting body, went unanswered. The number for the Justice Ministry's spokesman's office was disconnected.
Officials reached by telephone in Guiyang said they were unaware of the case.
Bo, a former commerce minister, turned the sprawling, haze-covered southwestern municipality of Chongqing into a showcase for his mix of populist policies and bold spending plans that won support from leftists yearning for a charismatic leader.
Bo, 63, was widely seen as pursuing a powerful spot on the party's elite inner core before his career unraveled after his former police chief, Wang Lijun, fled to a U.S. consulate for more than 24 hours in February and alleged that Bo's wife, Gu Kailai, had murdered Heywood with poison.
Both Wang and Gu have since been jailed and Bo expelled from the party, accused of corruption and of bending the law to hush up the killing.
Formal charges against Bo have yet to be made public.
Wang Yuncai, one of the lawyers for Wang Lijun, said it was quite possible the court case could open on Monday, though she said she did not know for certain.
"It's already been in the hands of the prosecutors for a long time, so it's quite possible," she said by telephone.
"Judging from the Wang Lijun case, that would mean a verdict within a week of the court hearing."
The two Wangs are not related.
Li Zhuang, a Beijing lawyer who opposed Wang Lijun and Bo for mounting a sweeping crackdown on foes in the name of fighting organized crime, said he also thought it was possible for a Monday hearing.
"I would only say it's possible, though not totally certain," Li said.
China has thrown a veil of official secrecy over Bo's fate, with the latest brief announcement earlier this month simply confirming that he had been handed over to the courts.
That has prompted a wave of rumors, mostly spread by overseas Chinese websites, about when and where the trial will be.

NEW YORK (AP) — As it does nearly every year, the Super Bowl will almost certainly stand as the most-watched television event of 2013. This year, the Blackout Bowl wasn't too far behind.
CBS prevailed upon the Nielsen Co. to estimate how many viewers watched the Baltimore Ravens' victory over the San Francisco 49ers while excluding the 34 minutes in the third quarter where the game was stopped because of a partial power outage in the Superdome. The game was seen by an average of 108.7 million people, down from the last two years but still ranking as the third most-watched show in U.S. television history.
Leaving aside the outage period, which came at a time the Ravens had a big lead, was likely CBS' attempt to nudge the viewership to a historically high level.
Yet few people were interested in tuning out. Nielsen said 106.6 million watched the power outage delay, which was basically extended scenes of first half highlights and players stretching to keep warm.
CBS dominated the week's non-football programming, too. In a positive sign for Fox, its new drama "The Following" was the most-watched scripted show on ABC, NBC or Fox last week, Nielsen said.
Skewed by Super Sunday, CBS averaged 28 million viewers in prime time for the week (13.6 rating, 22 share). Fox was second with 6.2 million viewers (3.7, 6), ABC had 4.7 million (3.1, 5), NBC had 3.9 million (2.6, 4), the CW had 1.6 million (1.0, 2) and ION Television had 1.2 million (0.8, 1).
Among the Spanish-language networks, Univision led with 3.6 million (1.9, 3), Telemundo had 1.2 million (0.6, 1), UniMas had 750,000 (0.4, 1), Estrella had 210,000 and Azteca had 120,000 (both 0.1, 0)
NBC's "Nightly News" topped the evening newscasts with an average of 9.2 million viewers (5.9, 12). ABC's "World News" was second with 8.3 million (5.6, 11) and the "CBS Evening News" had 6 million viewers (3.9, 8).
A ratings point represents 1,147,000 households, or 1 percent of the nation's estimated 114.7 million TV homes. The share is the percentage of in-use televisions tuned to a given show.
For the week of Jan. 28-Feb. 3, the top 10 shows, their networks and viewerships: Super Bowl XLVII: Baltimore vs. San Francisco, CBS, 108.69 million; "Super Bowl Power Outage," CBS, 106.56 million; "NCIS," CBS, 22.07 million; "The Big Bang Theory," CBS, 17.76 million; "NCIS: Los Angeles," CBS, 17.3 million; "American Idol" (Wednesday), Fox, 15.78 million; "Person of Interest," CBS, 15.71 million; "American Idol" (Thursday), Fox, 13.8 million; "Two and a Half Men," CBS, 13.7 million; "Blue Bloods," CBS, 11.5 million.
ABC is owned by The Walt Disney Co. CBS is owned by CBS Corp. CW is a joint venture of Warner Bros. Entertainment and CBS Corp. Fox and My Network TV are units of News Corp. NBC and Telemundo are owned by Comcast Corp. ION Television is owned by ION Media Networks. TeleFutura is a division of Univision. Azteca America is a wholly owned subsidiary of TV Azteca S.A. de C.V.

I am thinking about building a blade server and some blades, but I am confused on building blades. Does anyone have any experience on the matter or know any books?
My name is Draxx...you simians may refer to me merely as \'sir\' for a less syllable-intensive workout.
Don't get me wrong but you seem totally clueless as to what a bladeserver is and what it's used for. I looked at a few other posts made by you. Especially this post. Did you miss SDK's post? He wasn't kidding when he asked if you had $50.000 to spare.
Build a plane old PC and be done with it. Anything more is just a waste of money. Hell, if you've got that much money to spend why not build 2 PC's and network them. Use one for your programming/games and the other as a fileserver/webserver/whatever.
Oliver's Law:
Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.
I answer once and I'll not again! SirDice did a marvelous job of answering you!
-Simon \"SDK\"
Hey Draxx,
What would you want a blade server for? It seems a bit exotic (and expensive) for a private individual?
I could be wrong, but I tend to associate them with a clustering type of technology and with one application per blade. I think that might be a bit cumbersome in a SOHO/domestic environment?.

Metallica Post Official Video Recap of 'Secret' Comic-Con Show
When Metallica were in San Diego last week to promote their upcoming 3D movie 'Metallica Through the Never,' they also played a 'secret' show at the Spreckels Theatre that night (July 19). They have now posted an official video recap of that gig (watch above).
The 24-minute video includes footage of the band's rehearsal and their performance of 'Seek and Destroy' from the secret show. You'll also see drummer Lars Ulrich and guitarist Kirk Hammett briefly swap instruments. They play with a lot of enthusiasm, but not a lot of skill, and quickly go back to their regular places on stage.
'Metallica Through the Never' is a 3D movie that combines a traditional cinematic plot with concert footage of the metal giants performing.
In an interview with Hitfix, director Nimrod Antal talked about the vision for the film. "Tonally and within the film structure — with the atmosphere of the film — there were certainly certain songs that played well into our hands. We stayed real faithful to the band's set-list and tried to form a narrative we could weave into the concert," Antal said. "The band's persona, their energy and certainly the love they have for what they do, those made their way into the film. I'm very proud of it."
'Metallica Through the Never' can be seen in IMAX theaters beginning on Sept. 27 followed by a wider release on Oct. 4. Pre-orders for tickets are available here.

Kevin Gray's Gray Matter: Local talent has NHTI thinking bigBY KEVIN GRAY
New Hampshire Union Leader
January 28. 2013 9:14PM
NEW HAMPSHIRE Technical Institute is a launching point for college students looking to save money, bank some credits and enjoy a vibrant campus life. The school's motto is "Start Here ... Go Anywhere!"
So why are these basketball players sticking around for so long?
Most students spend two years at the community college, but Manchester West graduate Besfort Syla, an NHTI team captain, has been leading the fastbreak for four seasons. Syla, of Kosovo, is a non-traditional student who'll finish with degrees in criminal justice and general studies. His family fled from a war at home and spent 18 months in a refugee camp before immigrating to the U.S. Besfort's younger brother, Bujar, also plays for the Lynx.
"The biggest thing is we're always looking out for each other," said Besfort, whose original plan called for a one-year stop at NHTI before moving on to Colby-Sawyer College or Plymouth State University. "I never thought I would stay this long, but why leave something that is so good and go somewhere to start something new?"
Nick Porter and Jackson Riel of Pembroke are in their third season. So, too, are Ryan Sweeney from Alvirne of Hudson and Ahntwan Harris of Los Alamitos, Calif. At the end of last season, the core players all vowed to return and pursue a championship season in the U.S. Small College Athletic Association.
So far, so good. The Lynx have won 24 of their first 25 games.
"We know we can go far. We're always in sync," Porter said. "We kind of all got together at the end of last season and said, "You know what? If we all come back, we could actually win it.'"
Head coach Paul Hogan, who has won more than 500 games at NHTI, has seen more than 30 of his players move on to more traditional four-year schools. Ryan Lambert from Pinkerton of Derry used NHTI as a springboard to Plymouth State University, where he became the leading scorer (15.3 ppg) two seasons ago. Brian Lawrence of Exeter and Brian Stice of Dover transferred from NHTI to Rivier College and had success in recent years.
Transfer opportunities, competitive teams and a growing liberal arts curriculum are drawing more and more students to NHTI. Hogan, a former PSU head coach, has watched the school's enrollment increase from 1,100 to 2,200 full-time students in the past 14 years. About 3,500 part-time students also roam the campus. You can't beat the cost per credit ($204) for in-state students. By comparison, in-state students at the University of New Hampshire pay $570 per credit.
In 2005, NHTI won the USCAA championship, posting a 31-3 record, to become the first college basketball team from New Hampshire to win a national title. The Lynx simply wear down opponents with a fast-paced offense and fullcourt defense. Harris, a 6-foot-3 forward who works about 20 hours per week at Sears, is the Michael Jordan of NHTI's Crocker Wellness Center. Harris can score with mid-range jumpers or in-your-face dunks. Teammate Terry Williams, who scored 25 points at University of Maine at Machais on Sunday, is among the many weapons. It's always a good show when the Lynx are playing.
No wonder nobody wants to leave.
LET BONNER SHOOT: OK, fellow Granite Staters. It's time to make a final push for Matt Bonner and help get the Red Rocket into the 3-Point Shooting Contest at All-Star weekend in Houston. The Concord High native ranks 12th all-time in 3-point shooting percentage (41.7) and has never been involved in the 3-Point Shootout.
What can you do to help? Spread the word on social media. Share Facebook posts and retweet messages on Twitter with the hashtag "#LetBonnerShoot." It just might work. Matt's younger brother, Luke, who helped launch the movement with a letter to the NBA, appeared on NBAtv last week to keep the momentum going.
"It would be a shame if he played his whole career and never got a chance to compete in this event," Luke said on NBAtv.
Bonner wants this badly. Golden State sharpshooter Stephen Curry, who already has been invited to compete in the contest, seems indifferent. "It would be a big commitment heading down there for one event, so I'm figuring out if I'm going to make that commitment," said Curry in a published report at RealGM.com.
The Red Rocket hasn't received so much attention since a kid from Texas had an image of Bonner shaved into the back of his head. The story went national. Now the #LetBonnerShoot campaign is going viral.
Indie rock band Arcade Fire is making a big push for Bonner. The Grammy Award-winning band tweeted, "There's so much injustice in the world that we can't do anything about, but this is something we can change."
OK, NBA, it's time. Let the man shoot.

text: Jotun AS has blocked a $933 million takeover offer from Orkla ASA , a Norwegian maker of pizzas and bathroom cleaners, according to Jotun chairman Odd Gleditsch. The Gleditsch family owns 59 percent of Jotun's voting rights and said it does not want to relinquish control. Orkla, which holds 38.2 percent of Jotun's voting rights, said that paints and coatings is a market well aligned with its long-term strategy and that buying Jotun could be a way for the company to participate in the future consolidation of the industry. Orkla said it hopes the family bites on the $13,075 per share offer it has made, which would give it 90.9 percent of the voting right. If accepted, the transaction would lift Orkla's holding in Sandefjord-based Jotun to 63.6 percent from 42.5 percent. The offer is conditional upon Orkla gaining a stake of more than 50 percent of the voting rights. The acceptance period expires on Sept. 30.

Be the Alibi's Valentine
Love songs for our readers
Jonathon Coulton loves his monsters. Whether he's singing about zombies trying to find an acceptable compromise with their intended victims ("we're not unreasonable, no one's going to eat your eyes") or a kraken's wistful desire to befriend the ships it inevitably crushes with its massive tentacles, he approaches these subjects from an unexpected and often surprisingly tender perspective.
No surprise then to find that he offers a similar take on the evil genius who is the subject of the song "Skullcrusher Mountain." Yes, he's twisted. Yes, he's murderous. But he also feels the pangs of love and the heartbreak of being rebuffed.
For anyone who has ever given their crush a heartfelt gift and wondered "What's with all the screaming?"

The Conan O'Brien Team Coco app now supports phones as well as full episode streaming right inside the app. Previously, the app was only available for tablets, which didn't make a whole lot of sense. The new update opens things up to phones, and has a pretty solid UI to go along with it. You have access to videos, photos, articles and show schedule from a slide-in panel on the left, and a video clip viewer on the main page.
You can also now "sync" your phone with the TV broadcast for enhanced functionality while watching, or even watch full episodes on demand in the app. The Team Coco app still shows ads, unfortunately, but surely has a lot of increased functionality in this latest update. You can grab a download from the Play Store at the link above.

9 More Flu Deaths Confirmed in Minnesota
ST. PAUL (AP) — Minnesota health officials confirm nine more flu-related deaths.
The nine deaths were confirmed last week. That brings the number of confirmed flu-related deaths in Minnesota to 136 since the influenza season began.
Hospitalizations due to flu continue to decline in Minnesota. Health officials say 72 people were hospitalized with laboratory-confirmed influenza last week, compared with 108 the week before. So far this season, Minnesota has seen 2,703 hospitalizations.
Three nursing homes reported confirmed outbreaks of flu last week while 22 schools reported outbreaks.
Health officials have said the flu season has peaked in Minnesota. But they're still encouraging Minnesotans to get vaccinated.

September 29th | 5 - 7:30 pm
"It was so nice to meet you on Saturday (when I was wine tasting as part of Santa Barbara Adventure Company's Wine & Bike Tour). I call Zaca Mesa so often to book tours so it's always nice to put a name to a face! I really appreciate how incredible the staff is at Zaca Mesa and how you treated our clients. I'll definitely be booking more tours with your winery."
"I think [the Black Bear Party] was by far the best yet that we've attended. We liked that each of the staff members of Zaca Mesa who were in attendance were all introduced to the guests. Sometimes we don't always get the chance to meet those behind the scenes. Given the amount of people that attended this year, the seating arrangements worked out very well. As always, the food and wines were a hit and so was the band."
"Pourer was friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. I liked their Syrah more than their whites. Their whites were tasty and good for gifts. The Syrah is coming home with me. Glad we stopped here."
"Seriously! Can Zaca Mesa do any wrong? I love this place. It's no secret, they are my absolute favorite along Foxen Canyon and in this area in general. There's something about pulling into the drive way, parking your car and coming through their doors that makes you feel right at home. The staff are all phenomenal, there's something about them that is down to earth, relaxed, at ease in their own skin, hassle free, and just plain nice (something I don't know much about ;) but gosh I appreciate it when someone else is) which ensures your visit is comfortable and welcoming, equaling perfection."
"Loved the tasting room and large patio area. Perfect for groups. They had a band setting up but we didn't stay. Looked like a fun place to hang out and picnic. Loved the wines and left with a few bottles."
"Thanks so much for your hospitality yesterday at the tasting room as well as allowing my daughter to purchase wine with my wine club discount. She was
thrilled and is a huge fan. She always insists on visiting Zaca Mesa when she is in town from Chicago."
' Rose all day!!!! Came back a coupe weeks ago and got a case of their refreshing rose. The staff is always happy and friendly. And they love our pooch!'
"The atmosphere [at the Black Bear Party] was fantastic, then again so was the food, wine and the people at our table. We have been coming for several years now and it only seems to get better and better. Your staff is to be commended for doing such a great job"
"Thank you for providing much needed water and shade for hundreds of cyclists. Your kind generosity averted medical problems for many riders, including me, in the debilitating heat."
"So after pinky swearing with my husband before our wine tasting trip that we absolutely would not join any more wine clubs, we are now members of the Zaca Mesa wine club after our visit here. Why? Great wines... Especially the white wines!
We tasted here in the middle of the week and the place was still fairly busy. [Cathy] which served us gave us plenty of her time and attention despite the crowd. She also gave us tastes of a couple of wines that were open but not on the tasting list including their Z blends. Everything was quite [good] but we were really impressed with the quality of their white wines, which is somewhat unusual in this area.
Lovely winery, friendly staff and good wines add up to a wonderful experience!"
"I just want to thank you for shipping the two cases is ZGris without my even having to ask. I hope you keep me on the auto ship list for that particular wine."
"One of my favorite tasting rooms on Foxen Canyon Road! The servers are phenomenal and you never feel rushed. They have several of my favorites, but to my surprise I tried a new white wine that was amazing! They served a Grenache Blanc that was fabulous! Ashley was very informative about the wines and shared notes on her favorite. I was pleasantly surprised by their Rousanne - very nice and crisp - perfect for a warm summer day."
"The grounds were beautiful and I was impressed seeing staff in the area knowing they care for their location. There were also lots of cars, so clearly this place is popular. When we walked in we were immediately greeted by Eric, who tasted us on wines. He was so knowledgable and attentive, it was refreshing after being at a few less than exciting wineries that day. The crowd in the winery was also lively and clearly were happy to be there."
"Amazing wines, lovely staff- very informative, took time with each tasting, a highlight of our trip to the Santa Barbara wine region."
I wanted to thank you again for your generosity and care for Kate's visit with her friends! They could not have felt more welcomed with the special attention you gave them and they were so impressed with the private tasting….they could not have been more pleased and then you comp'd their tasting which was incredibly kind of you.
"My wife and I visited your tasting room Sunday as part of our 45th Anniversary celebration. We met many people during our trip visiting Los Olivos, but none came close to the warmth, caring and sincerity of your employee, Cathy. Many thanks."
"This must be our 5th or 6th visit, and it only gets better.Got lots of wine, and will surely enjoy them in the near future, and will let some age. The wine tasting was a great experience."
"The 2015 Solvang Century bike tour was made better by the generosity of your winery. I cannot remember when it's been so hot and myself so worn down in the final miles. I saw cyclists at your barn getting water and catching some shade. That little pause in the tour was much needed and much appreciated."
"Just wanted to send you a Thank You note telling you what a great time we had at the Pinot Noir release last weekend. The event was well organized and great wine treats were readily available. Enjoyed the tacos, too!"
If you are going to taste wine in the Los Olivos/Santa Ynez, you MUST come here. They have some of the best wines on the Central Coast, bar none. Their Z Three and Z Cuvee are all time favorites. They have a quaint courtyard under huge Coastal Oaks for having a picnic lunch, ample parking in the back, and a very informed staff. If you are planning on shipping your wine home, make sure to ask them about their shipper boxes, that are available for purchase. They are the best boxes you can buy. I send shipments of wine for gifts to my family in Pennsylvania often. They have NEVER received a broken bottle. I have been to Zaca Mesa probably over 20 times, and they never disappoint.

The "Nordic Cool 2013" festival in February and March 2013 will include theater, music, dance, food and art exhibits to showcase the cultures of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden and territories including Greenland.
Kennedy Center President Michael Kaiser said the festival will present music, theater and dance that will be new to U.S. audiences. Much of the festival will explore Nordic life, nature, technology, environmental sustainability and youth culture.
"It's a region that does a lot of interesting art, but I think is not all that well-known or understood," Kaiser said. "I think we get increasingly less familiar as we go from West to East until we hit Moscow, but I think there's a lot that we don't know."
As part of a nearly $100 million slate of programs for 2012 and 2013, the Kennedy Center also is planning new productions in theater and opera and a new jazz club performance space. It will also host special concerts celebrating "Songs of Conscience" from folk singer Woody Guthrie and reggae musician Bob Marley to showcase music that helped draw attention to issues of their day. John Mellencamp will perform in honor of Guthrie.
In theater, the center plans to stage a new adaptation of Ferenc Molnar's 1910 play "The Guardsman" to be directed by Gregory Mosher. The comedy tells the story of a newlywed husband who disguises himself as a guardsman to test whether his wife would cheat on him. It's been nearly 90 years since the show debuted on Broadway.
The Kennedy Center also announced it will host tours of the Tony Award-winning Broadway shows "The Book of Mormon," "War Horse" and "Anything Goes."
In the opera house, Washington National Opera will stage new productions of Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein II's "Show Boat" in May 2013 and Bellini's "Norma" in March 2013. "Show Boat" is a co-production with Lyric Opera of Chicago, the San Francisco Opera and Houston Grand Opera, and one performance of the show will be simulcast in Nationals Park.
The opera company also is expanding its season to include a family opera of "Hansel and Gretel" during the holiday season to be performed in a smaller theater.
"I think it will be a great way to introduce children to opera," Kaiser said.
This year will mark the first season for pianist Jason Moran to lead the Kennedy Center's jazz programming. He will host an "Election Night Jam" session and a new performance space with a dance floor, sofas and open seating to create a more casual vibe.
In ballet, the Kennedy Center will present Christopher Wheeldon's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" and Mariinsky Ballet performing Alexei Ratmansky's "Cinderella." The center's Ballet Across America program will present ballet companies from nine U.S. cities, including the return of Dance Theatre of Harlem, which had closed as a company.
Finally, in classical music, the Kennedy Center will host a weeklong residency with star pianist Lang Lang joining the National Symphony Orchestra. He will perform three Beethoven concerti, as well as piano recitals featuring a variety of repertoire.

Convicted cousin killer to be sentenced in court
CONVICTED killer John Henry Brown has been found not guilty of murdering his cousin Caroline Widgell but guilty of her manslaughter.
Brown, 33, pleaded not guilty to a charge of murder arising from the death of his cousin Caroline Widgell, 28, who was stabbed in the chest at a Seppelt St address in Wilsonton Heights just after 9pm, July 4, 2013.
In his closing address, Brown's barrister Robbie Davies invited the jury to find his client guilty of manslaughter.
Mr Davies said it was not in dispute that his client had caused Ms Widgell's chest wound which led to her death.
However, the issue was whether he had intended to kill her.
Mr Davies said if there was any rational hypothesis consistent with innocence, the jury must acquit his client of murder.
"What he is guilty of, ladies and gentlemen, is manslaughter," Mr Davies submitted to the jury.
Crown prosecutor Mark Whitbread argued that by the evidence put before the trial John Brown had intended to kill Ms Widgell or at least cause her grievous bodily harm.
Brown had been staying nearby at a Lindemann Crt home of his cousin and had arrived on foot at the Seppelt St residence and went straight to the back yard where Ms Widgell and others were gathered.
After calling her away to the front yard where the pair was alone, he had stabbed her "one quick and sudden blow to the chest", Mr Whitbread said.
Ms Widgell had turned away and walked back to the house, telling her cousin "John stabbed me, Cuz".
Mr Davies made a defence admission that a steak knife found in the front yard soon after the incident had blood on its blade that was DNA matched to Ms Widgell.
Mr Whitbread submitted similar steak knives were found in the kitchen drawer at Lindemann Crt where Brown had been staying, suggesting he had taken the knife to the Seppelt St address, suggesting intent.
Brown had left the scene after the incident and was found later that night in Wine Drive Park not far away, he said.
When challenged by police, Brown had immediately fallen to his knees and put his hands behind his head, telling police "Just put me in jail", Mr Whitbread submitted.
During a subsequent police interview, Brown had told a detective "I killed my cousin, does that mean anything", he said.
The jury retired to consider a verdict at 2.43pm but returned at 4.23pm with a question for Justice Peter Lyons seeking clarification of murder as opposed to manslaughter.
The jury then retired for another half-hour before returning with a verdict of not guilty on murder but guilty of manslaughter.
By its verdict the jury had not accepted John Brown had intended to kill Ms Widgell despite plunging the knife into her left chest to a depth of 7cm and leaving a 16mm by 7mm wound.
She was pronounced dead soon after being rushed to hospital.
Justice Lyons adjourned sentence until this morning and remanded Brown in custody.

Litchfield fire blamed on improper disposal of staining rags
August 27. 2013 8:26AM
LITCHFIELD – The improper disposal of rags used in wood staining led to a fire Monday night that destroyed a barn on Charles Bancroft Highway.
A little after 9 p.m. homeowner Ed Barringer heard "popping" coming from the 30-by-50-foot barn and when he looked out, flames were through the roof, according to a Litchfield Fire–Rescue news release. He immediately called 911.
The barn and its contents, including a 2008 Ford Mustang, were destroyed.
Fire officials said the cause of the fire was accidental. The homeowner had done some wood staining in the afternoon and left the rags and cans of stain out near ordinary combustible materials. The rages produced heat and came in contact with ordinary combustibles in the area, which had plenty of air to start the fire.
Rags, steel wool and other waste soaked with oil finishes may spontaneously catch fire if improperly discarded, fire officials said, citing a safety disclaimer posted on the Minwax© website. Rags and other waste should be placed in a water-filled metal container immediately after use, which should then be tightly sealed and disposed of in accordance with local regulations.

it brings a bit more question on whether or not this was spontaneous, and if zenkichi is really just a supporting protagonist for this manga.

I admit I was wrong about the part of Medaka defeating Shiranui.
However Medaka will certainly have the final say in this arc, just like all arcs.
Now that everyone bar her is dead, she will save everyone somehow.
Either that or something ridiculous happens like Ajimu stomping Fukurou and then Medaka having the final say.
Also in case I am misunderstood I don't dislike this Manga or Medaka. I am just saying what will happen considering the nature of this manga (I do understand where the hate comes from though)
Personally I don't take this manga seriously. Its like fun in a box ( well more like a (Zen's) journey to open Medaka's Box lol)
Finally Fukurou next chapter. Everything may very well have been his plan to get into Medaka's pants lol and also get everyone out of the way.

And, completion?
Probably. The next volume is completing in two chapters, so the arc probably ends in two chapters as well.

Zen's plan was actually quite ingenious, when you think about it. He already has what the other Style users lacked, which was "understanding" of the feelings of himself and others(why Ajimu suicided for, apparently), rathern than just "knowing".
Simply defeating Iihiko with non-sense like "The opponent is strong, therefore I win" would have been utterly useless, since Iihiko would then just target another body for possession, but more importantly, it would kill Shiranui, therefore failing Zen's primary objective. He needed Iihiko to kill himself.
So he surmised that he had to fight Iihiko to exactly the point where the destroyer would be desperate enough to switch back to Shiranui in-order to stop Zenkichi from fighting - all within a strict time limit!
I see now why Zen sacrificed his arm. It was the only way to properly create that opening with the given time, where Iihiko knew that he would need to pull-up a fast one to be able to stop Zenkichi's attack.
That same fast-one which would be his ultimate undoing.
Goddamn. Zen is the motherfawking Batman.
But Shiranui also gets some credit for the awesome plan. After all, They knew.
All-in-all, it was a really brilliant plan. Props to Nishio for pulling something like that off so well.

text: Student Profiles Robin Trangsrud '06 Robin Trangsrud '06 Hometown: Minnetonka, Minnesota Major: Government, with a Comparative Politics Concentration; Minor: Spanish Why did you choose to come to Bowdoin? My older siblings all went to small liberal arts colleges, so my image of college was always the liberal arts setting that my siblings had enthusiastically described. Although I considered playing Division I lacrosse, after visiting a few larger universities, I knew I wanted the more intimate academic environment of a liberal arts college. My motivation behind venturing from the Midwest out to Bowdoin was primarily academic, though the opportunity to enjoy Maine's outdoors, to play competitive Division III lacrosse, and to experience a culture outside of the Midwest also drew me towards Bowdoin. I didn't visit before I came, and I feel extremely lucky for the incredible experience I've had thus far! Why did you choose you major? Although my initial interest was in anthropology, after taking Henry Laurence's Introduction to Comparative Politics the spring of my first year, I knew I would be a government major. I was particularly attracted to comparative politics as it provides an interesting lens to examine different institutions within a country that lend to insight about the culture. My Spanish minor evolved as a continuation of the Spanish courses I took in high school. I'm not sure how it emerged, but I've always been fascinated by the music and culture of Latin America and wanted to become fluent in the language. What has been your favorite course at Bowdoin? I have never been as invested in a course as I was in my senior seminar, "Social Protest and Political Change" with Laura Henry. When I was a sophomore I was particularly inspired by Joe Bandy's course on "Globalization and Social Change." As my extracurricular and career interests became more focused in social justice issues, Laura's class provided intriguing theories behind the issues I became most passionate about. In a way, the course synthesized my academic and personal interests. It is interesting to look at the courses I have taken and think about how they have influenced my career interests and shaped my personal commitments. Have you engaged in any independent research while at Bowdoin? I spent the past summer conducting research through a Surdna Fellowship with Professor Allen Springer of the government department. I researched evolving norms of international environmental law and assisting him with part of his sabbatical research. My research evaluated two specific legal cases in the Plata Basin in South America and will contribute to his upcoming book. I am continuing the research this semester with an independent study, and I am very fortunate to be able to attend a conference on the management of the river basin in Argentina in November. What extracurricular or work experiences have you had at Bowdoin? I came to Bowdoin with lacrosse as a high priority, but after an injury my sophomore year, and a desire to explore Bowdoin's opportunities beyond athletics, I started and coached Bowdoin's JV team and became invested in community service and advocating for social change. I have been part of a Global Justice, where I led fundraising events, helped raise awareness and assisted in attracting and publicizing speakers. I also co-coordinated a Bowdoin community-wide Conference on Poverty in America intended to facilitate dialogue and to inform students of careers in poverty relief. It was a week-long event including multiple Bowdoin departments, a service-learning course, alumni, Maine legislators, and national non-profit organizations. I also served as a Maine Civic Fellow in which I worked to encourage youth activism in civic life. I have held various jobs at Bowdoin, but for the past two years I have worked as the Common Hour intern where I assist in the research, marketing, and organization of the bi-weekly lecture series. I have loved playing intramural sports, spending time in the outdoors, and practicing yoga. The most valuable experience I have had outside of the classroom at Bowdoin, however, is my two years as a proctor and current year as an RA. What is your best Bowdoin memory? I can't think of one specific memory at Bowdoin that is my favorite, but many of the best memories I've had has been spent "closing the dining halls." My friends and I created the expression, which is really just a short way of describing when you sit in a booth in Moulton or a table in Thorne immersed in great conversations and laughter for hours. Usually, the dining staff will eventually ask if you want anymore dessert, coffee, or tea, and you and your friends are completely oblivious to the fact that there is no one else left eating. It is a fantastic way to enjoy being at Bowdoin while simultaneously forgetting that you are there. The down side is that you always feel bad when the dining hall staff asks if you can take your tray, as you know their shift ends when you go home! What are your plans for after graduation? I would ideally like to spend a year or two teaching in Latin America or working at an NGO committed to poverty alleviation. The summer following my junior year, through the PICF grant, I worked at an NGO in the Guatemala City Dump and it was an experience that simultaneously frustrated and inspired me to work in international development. I intend to return to the States and, pending my experience abroad, pursue a degree in law and public health/public policy. I have quite a bit of schooling to go; I also would like to become a yoga instructor. What advice would you give to a prospective student or first-year about the Bowdoin experience? In my high school yearbook, I'm quoted for following Morgan Freeman's advice, "Get busy living, or get busy dying." Going to Bowdoin is an incredible opportunity to fulfill that objective, and while I still adhere to it, I suggest following it with caution. The extracurricular activities in which you involve yourself can shape your development as much as your academic curriculum. But don't stretch yourself too thin! Know that the relationships you develop with people and professors are what will make you love this place. The resources that exist at Bowdoin continuously amaze me, and when you invest in this community you will gain back more than you ever could have imagined.

The odds are fewer than one in 100. But even with the odds stacked heavily in his favor, Louisville quarterback Brian Brohm is in no mood to gamble.
Brohm, like so many returning college seniors, is expected to take out a disability insurance policy. Should Brohm be injured in his senior season at Louisville, he will be covered for millions should his pro aspirations be cut short.
Policies cost tens of thousands of dollars, and fewer than one in 100 ever file a claim.
Several companies write such policies, and even the NCAA is involved. The governing body, which entered the field in 1990, now offers up to $3 million of coverage for football players. To be eligible for the NCAA program, a player must be projected to be drafted in the first three rounds.
Brohm is considered such a sure prospect that he may be eligible for the rare policy that would pay an intermediate amount if an injury caused his draft status to drop but did not keep him from playing professionally. The cost? At typical rates, a $10 million policy could cost $200,000.


text: B2B print ad review: CDW Published on March 04, 2013. Agency: Ogilvy & Mather, Chicago The tagline in this ad for CDW is "People Who Get IT." But the Chasers aren't sure they get the point of the ad, in which the headline says: "Time spent sitting at desks. That aren't yours. ... Solved." The headline, at least to us, seems more aimed at IT/help-desk types who would prefer not to make house calls and do the hand-holding in the employee's cubicle or office. They seem to prefer to deliver the tech support online or over the phone. Copy empathizes with its audience by stating: "The monotony. The minutia. The "simple tasks.' We get it and we do it, so you don't have to." There, CDW, the provider of technology products and services, appears to be talking to the small-business owner, not the IT guy. We would rethink the headline so that an audience of small-business owners understands that the ad is for them. Rating: 2 stars Most Popular In this article: BtoB

There is no information on global abundance or trends in abundance for this species. It is potentially vulnerable to low-level threats and a 30% global reduction over three generations cannot be ruled out (criterion A).
|Previously published Red List assessments:
|Range Description:
|Hector's beaked whale is considered to be a Southern Hemisphere cool temperate species (Mead 1989). The records (mostly strandings) are from southern South America, South Africa, southern Australia, and New Zealand. The single confirmed sighting record is from southwestern Australia (Gales et al. 2002). It has been speculated that the species has a continuous distribution in the Atlantic and Indian oceans at least from South America to New Zealand. Although there are no current records from the central and eastern Pacific Ocean, the range may prove to be circumpolar. These animals may be relatively common around New Zealand.
Previously, it was supposed that this species may also be vagrant in southern California, where there were several strandings and a possible sighting from 1975 to 1979 (Mead 1981, Mead and Baker 1987, Rice 1998). However, the California specimens were recently recognised as a new species Mesoplodon perrini, which is found in the eastern North Pacific (Dalebout et al. 1998; Dalebout et al. 2002).
|Countries occurrence:
Native:Argentina (Chubut); Australia (Coral Sea Is. Territory, Lord Howe Is., Tasmania); Brazil (Rio Grande do Sul); Chile; Falkland Islands (Malvinas); New Zealand (Antipodean Is., Chatham Is., Kermadec Is., North Is., South Is.); South Africa (Eastern Cape Province, Western Cape); United States (California)

|Additional data:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|In the only known confirmed identification of this species alive at sea, a single individual was observed in shallow waters, nearshore in Western Australia – almost definitely atypical for the species (Gales et al. 2002). Hector's beaked whale presumably occurs in deep waters beyond the edge of the continental shelf, as do other members of the genus.
Little is known of the diet, but Hector's beaked whales are known to feed on squid, like most other beaked whales.
|Major Threat(s):
Direct hunting has never been associated with this species. Pervasive gillnet and longline fisheries throughout the species' range raises concern that some bycatch is likely. Even low levels of bycatch might have an impact on this species.
This species, like other beaked whales, is likely to be vulnerable to loud anthropogenic sounds, such as those generated by navy sonar and seismic exploration (Cox et al. 2006).
As a temperate water species, Hector's beaked whale may be vulnerable to the effects of climate change as ocean warming may result in a shift or contraction of the species range as it tracks the occurrence of its preferred water temperatures (Learmonth et al. 2006). The effect of such changes in range size or position on this species is unknown.
Evidence from stranded individuals of several similar species indicates that they have swallowed discarded plastic items, which may eventually lead to death (e.g. Scott et al. 2001); this species may also be at risk.
|Conservation Actions:
|The species is listed in Appendix II of CITES. Research is needed to determine the impacts of potential threatening processes on this species.

Paul Cézanne, the Post-Impressionist master, was born in Aix-en Provence where he received his formal education as a classmate of Emile Zola. Cézanne, whose banker father wished him to study law, did not arrive in Paris until 1861 although he had studied drawing in Aix and showed considerable ability. While studying at the Academie Suisse, Cézanne met Pissarro who was to influence him greatly. When he failed the entrance examinations for the Beaux-Arts, however, he returned to Aix. After working for a year in his father's bank and painting in his spare time, he returned to Paris (1862-64).
His school friend Emile Zola introduced him to Manet, Renoir, Bazille, and Degas, and Cézanne began working with these artists. Between 1864 and 1890 Cézanne lived in Paris, its environs and in the region around Aix until diabetes forced him to retire permanently to Aix. Early in his career, Cézanne admired Caravaggio, Courbet, and Delacroix, and his paintings until 1868 were romantic or baroque in style, dark in colour, and classical in subject. During the period 1868-72, Manet's influence may be noted in added clarity and solidity of form.
During his Impressionist period (1872-79) his palette lightened and, following Pissarro's example, he approached nature with greater simplicity. Throughout the years that he exhibited with the Impressionists, Cézanne held the unhappy distinction of being the most derided member of the group. He liked his own work no better than the critics or the public. In 1880, however, he began to develop his own theory and style of painting. It is a style based on the reduction of every object in nature to the cone, the cylinder or the cube. He achieved a three-dimensional architectural effect by deliberately alternating warm and cool tones and by using a dark outline around objects.

We will always advocate picking your carrier before picking your phone, but sometimes the allure of a specific phone can be too much to overcome. Millions switched to AT&T to get access to the first four iPhones, BlackBerry faithful jumped to Verizon and Vodafone to get the first BlackBerry Storm, and old Palm fans moved to Sprint to pick up a Palm Pre. They made these moves not out of interest in monthly savings or coverage, but for a specific device - one exclusive to that carrier.
These carrier exclusives have long been a fact of life in the smartphone space, but with smartphones becoming something that even the average consumer has an opinion on, they're increasingly becoming more of a headache. When it comes to smartphones, there's little worse than the new hotness landing on a different carrier than yours and you finding yourself a year away from getting out of your contract without forking over a heft ETF.
Exclusives can be good for manufacturers, no doubt. But can they be bad for them too? And are they bad for consumers outside of the frustration of denial? And what about all of the apps and services that the carrier insists on loading on these handsets - are they useful, or just useless bloat?
