Very excellent work by Ernest media. I sincerely thank Ernest and Lidwin for their special care of my baby boy and excellent execution of work. I booked them to take milestone pictures of my son each month starting from his birth, which was 12 shoots (one each month). I was expecting to have only 1 photo per month, but they surprised me every month with special shoots with different props each month. They were flexible with both time and location. 3 of the 12 shoots happened to be outside chennai which they wholeheartedly agreed and executed without compromising the quality. Now that i have a beautiful collection of my son's one complete year journey. I strongly recommend this team who is looking for Baby photoshoot

I hired Varadharajan to cover my marriage function. He took both the photographs and the video. I came to know about him from a friend of mine. He came with a team, and he is very patient. The album provided by him was really nice. They were very punctual, and they had many innovative ideas as well. The pictures were delivered on time. They provided me with a photo frame as a complimentary gift. It was amazing, and I am very satisfied. I have referred him to a few friends of mine. He is very patient and listens to the client. He charged me a nominal amount, and I am very happy with his work.
- vvidya
I hired Mr Varadharajan 3 years ago for my wedding photography. He was referred by a friend for the photography and videography of my marriage function. He was a very good and patient photographer and did everything according to me. He took perfect photographs, gave many ideas on posing and also took our ideas. He did everything on time and also delivered the final soft copies and hard copies timely. He gave me some goodies like photoframe and the pricing was reasonable. I had a good experience and have referred him to my friends as well.

Matt Bellamy Gossip
Matt Bellamy gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Radiohead, Thom, Kate
VIPix/ Splash News, AKM-GSI, Matthew Baker/ Getty Images
Last Thursday Jacek and I had dinner listening to Radiohead on all album shuffle. We've lived with the new album, A Moon Shaped Pool, for a few weeks now. It's so f-cking good. It's so f-cking gorgeous. That night, Radiohead played The Roundhouse in London, the first time they performed in London since 2012. Full Story
Conscious Uncoupling everywhere
AKM-GSI/ Splash
Last night on etalk we counted down the Top 10 gossip stories of the year, as many other programs and outlets are doing right now. How can you have a list without Conscious Uncoupling? Gwyneth's breakup gave us a new expression, an expression everyone used, as a joke, mostly, but still… when you add a phrase to pop culture vocabulary, it's a thing. Full Story
Kate Hudson: from musician to dancer
Jason Merritt/ Michael Buckner/ Getty Images
PEOPLE reported late yesterday that Kate Hudson and Matt Bellamy have ended their engagement with confirmation from her rep: "Kate and Matt have been separated for some time now. Despite this, they remain very close friends and committed co-parents. Full Story
Kate & Matt on holiday
Kate Hudson and Matt Bellamy made it through a rough winter. It was reported around Oscar time that they were re-evaluating their engagement. She was partying on her own, happily, and without the ring. Then, in the spring, a rebirth. Now that it's summer, it would appear that their relationship is as strong as ever. Full Story
Still consciously coupled
Be honest – didn't you think Kate Hudson and Matt Bellamy would be done before Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin? Especially since it seemed like we were being prepared for it during award season as Kate was seen without her wedding ring as reports on PEOPLE and US Weekly indicated that she and Matt were estranged? As I wrote a couple of weeks ago, maybe she just wanted to be single for the Oscars Full Story
Maybe it was for award season
The last we heard of Kate Hudson, she and Matt Bellamy were having problems in their relationship. She hadn't been wearing her ring. And even PEOPLE was reporting that she and Bellamy were estranged. If PEOPLE was willing to go there, it had to have been subtly sanctioned. Full Story
Kate Hudson & Matt Bellamy near the end?
PEOPLE is reporting that Kate Hudson and Matt Bellamy are not solid. Which, to me, means they must be really, really not solid. Now US Weekly is adding to the story, confirming through their own sources that Kate and Matt haven't spent much time together and that she's no longer wearing her engagement ring. Full Story
Kate works on Clear History
FameFlynet, Bauer
It's a new film for HBO written by Larry David and the cast includes Jon Hamm, Danny McBride, Michael Keaton, Bill Hader, Eva Mendes, and Amy Ryan. David plays a f-ck up who tries to f-ck up his old boss, or something. It sounds like a comedy about horrible people. I'm excited. And I'm excited too about Kate Hudson's recently improved career moves. Full Story
Kate & Matt open Venice...and more hair talk
Pascal Le Segretain/ Gareth Cattermole/ GABRIEL BOUYS/ Getty
Kate Hudson walked the carpet on opening night of the Venice Film Festival tonight for The Reluctant Fundamentalist. Pretty sure that's a Versace dress. Click here to see it on the runway, the 15th image. Kate's wearing both the straps on one side. Full Story
Kate Hudson: Venice not Muskoka
Apparently there was a big wedding in Muskoka this weekend and all the locals thought it might be Kate Hudson. It wasn't. Here she is in New York on Friday with Matt Bellamy. So Muskoka didn't happen but Venice totally will. It was announced yesterday that Mira Nair's The Reluctant Fundamentalist will open the Venice Film Festival. Full Story
Holidays with billionaires
Fame/Flynet, INF
Kate Hudson, Matt Bellamy, and baby Bing are on holiday on the French Riviera. Famous people are often friends with mega rich people. It's a mutual use relationship. The rich provide their facilities to the famous for the privilege of hanging out with them. Strange, isn't it? You'd think that wealth would be enough. Full Story

Is it horror, action-adventure, disaster porn, a superhero flick, an old-school monster movie, or some mix of all of these?
After watching the trailer for the newest Godzilla movie (which you should seriously check out now, if you haven't yet already), a question arose about just which category a movie like Godzilla belonged in:
I love the meta-reference to the original, and the bit about nuke testing being a cover for past strikes.
Is it trolling to say that this looks a lot more competent and exciting, as monster movies go, than Pacific Rim?
Well, technically, PR wasn't horror movie, it was action-adventure. In horror, it is shown that the monster isn't defeated or simply can't be defeated. In action-adventure, people win. So it's kinda an apples and oranges thing.
None of the Godzilla movies were horror movies (even by your definition, which seems reductive, since they eventually repel him in the original, and he's basically a superhero in the later ones). They're monster movies, or maybe an offshoot of the disaster movie.
So where in the genre spectrum do you think Godzilla movies fall, and where do you want them to fall?
There are arguments to be made on all sides, and probably different categories for each of the different incarnations of Godzilla. It's pretty early to try and figure out for sure just which category this latest movie will fall into, but I'm particularly drawn to the idea of Godzilla as a disaster movie, where Godzilla is as much a force of nature as he is a monster.

Radial shaft seals
When oil leakage is not an option
Oil leakage must be avoided in industrial geared units. This is a growing challenge due to the increasing use of aggressive oils, threatening reliable sealing performance.
To meet these performance challenges, SKF radial shaft seals are designed to provide an optimized radial load and are manufactured using a unique compound, specifically engineered to offer better oil compatibility. Together, these features provide improved sealing performance. Additionally, SKF SPEEDI-SLEEVE and wear sleeves provide the most suitable counterface for damaged shafts.
SKF Speedi-Sleeve
The fastest, most economical way to optimize shafts or repair worn shafts
Optimized seal counterface surface
The new generation SKF Speedi-Sleeve uses a proprietary stainless steel material and manufacturing process, resulting in an optimized seal counterface surface that minimizes wear on both sleeve and sealing lip. An SKF Speedi-Sleeve mounts quickly and easily without power tools or heating.
Often capable of delivering a better quality counterface for the seal lip than the original shaft, SKF Speedi-Sleeve also:
- Eliminate expense of replacing or reworking shafts
- Require no shaft disassembly or machining
- Enable same size replacement seal as original
- Provide an excellent, wear-resistant sealing surface
- Are easy to install with no power tools or heating

Recommendations for Insurance Cover
In the process of scoping out administration for a new group and have tried to look on line at Public Liability Insurance for reenactors and wondered if anyone can gives us a ball park figure for the cost of cover for a group of 10 -15 part-taking in mixed activities. Any pointers and or pitfalls to avoid would be gratefully received. Is it better to approach one of the 'well known' insurers or one of the so called 'specialists' as I have noticed that some of the websites seem to brokers which use the same company ..... any suggestions for preferred insurers?

December 25, 2017 | By Paul Kelly, Indianapolis Motor Speedway
Editor's Note: This is the fifth of a series of 10 vignettes in which IMS Senior Communications Manager Paul Kelly picks his top 10 moments of 2017 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
The Brickyard Vintage Racing Invitational is a weekend full of good times and even better vibes at IMS. The Sportscar Vintage Racing Association event is a racing museum in motion, as hundreds of vintage and historic cars are raced hard, as they were intended.
This event also was a family affair this year. It took place on Father's Day weekend, with many dads and sons and grandsons attending the race together. The vintage races also featured fathers and sons racing against each other.
Of all the families that gathered that weekend at IMS, perhaps none gained more attention – and had more fun – than the Unsers.
The good times started Friday when Al, Bobby and Al Unser Jr. – who combined to win nine Indianapolis 500s – participated in a pre-race press conference along with Johnny and Robby Unser. Other racing legends were at the podium, too, including Indianapolis 500 veterans Paul Tracy, Jimmy Vasser, Max Papis and Willy T. Ribbs.
But the Unsers stole the show. All five of them traded stories, lighthearted barbs and laughter to set the scene for a wonderful weekend. The affair quickly morphed from a press conference into almost like sitting at the Unser dinner table on Thanksgiving.
It was hilarious, heartwarming and reassuring to see the First Family of the Indianapolis 500 reunited and in great spirits at their favorite place on Earth.
The Unsers were at IMS for more than media appearances. They were there to race, of course! Al, Al Jr., Johnny and Robby competed against each other in the Indy Legends Charity Pro-Am race Saturday, and Uncle Bobby was the grand marshal.
The good times continued to roll Sunday.
Loni Unser, the 19-year-old daughter of Johnny Unser, continued the family legacy of victory by sharing the driving duties in the winning car in her class. Johnny proudly stood on the podium with his daughter and her co-driver, Marcus Pillion, in yet another moment of glory for the Unser family at IMS.
Al, Bobby, Al Jr., Robby and Johnny all have been retired from the Indianapolis 500 driver's seat for a decade or longer. But their passion and appreciation for IMS hasn't dwindled one bit. And with Loni just starting her racing career, that winning legacy may continue at the Brickyard for years to come.

Natural cause: Widower of slain motorist found dead
The Culpeper man who lost his wife in a controversial hail of police gunfire has died in mysterious, but perhaps not nefarious, circumstances. Gary D. Cook lived long enough to see the officer charged with murder in the February shooting of Patricia Ann Cook, but he was found dead Tuesday in the apartment he once shared with his late wife.
"It's very sad," notes James Jennings, the citizen who runs the Justice for Patricia Cook Facebook page.
According to an initial release from the Virginia State Police, which is investigating the death, a maintenance person found the body of the 62-year-old man after entering his apartment in the Friendship Heights complex to conduct routine maintenance on Tuesday morning, September 11.
"Preliminary findings," reads a subsequent release, "by the Office of the Medical Examiner in Manassas determined that he died of natural causes."
The county sheriff's office was dispatched at 10:29am to investigate the "unattended death" and then contacted the Culpeper field office of the Virginia State Police's criminal division, according to a State Police release.
In television interviews following the February 9 killing of his wife as she drove out of a church parking lot, the soft-spoken Mr. Cook appeared earnest and shaken. Cook later hired the Charlottesville firm of MichieHamlett to wage a wrongful death lawsuit against the officer, Daniel Harmon-Wright.
"Shocked is my first reaction," says Mr. Cook's lawyer, Greg Webb. "Extremely sad would be my next– he's an extremely nice guy."
In late May, Harmon-Wright, who discharged five of his seven shots through the back of Mrs. Cook's Jeep, was charged with murder and three other felonies. In pleadings, he has defended his actions as a reasonable response to a threat to public safety, since Mrs. Cook was allegedly driving with an obscured windshield. His trial has been set for January.
Attorney Webb says that the civil suit will likely continue under a different plaintiff, Patricia Cook's only sibling, a brother who lives in New Jersey. She had no children.
"At this stage of the investigation, it does not appear foul play was a factor in the man's death," the State Police says in a release. Mr. Cook's body was transported to the office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Manasas for an autopsy to take place on Wednesday, September 12. It was that examination that led to the preliminary findings.

Just like Andrew Breitbart died of natural causes. They have heart attack guns and other doodads that disrupt your natural bioelectric mechanisms, causing what appears to be a natural death. But go ahead and call it a conspiracy theory and get on your horse and buggy and ride down to the river to wash your clothes if you think it's still the 1900's.
@Somebody...I am not sure what killing the man would have accomplished, except for evading a lawsuit. But, she has other loved ones (brother) who likely will be a plaintiff. Frankly, I do not know much about civil law in Virginia, but I'd be more inclined to nail the perps with punitive damages as much as compensatory. If the trial bears it out and find the ex-cop guilty as charged, him and the town should pay tons in punitive damages.
@Tim Brown...If you are from the Chville area, could you refrain from the Francais? It is truly nauseating to see how enamored this little town is with the socialist bedwetters we had to save in the mid-1940s. If I was doing an exercise for school kids on "Is-to" relationships, it would have to be:
NBC:British Royalty::Charlottesville:France
"J'ouvre le livre de Anglais!" I don't do French!
R.I.P.: Franz Jost

que=what in Spanish prob a reference to character in
Fawlty Towers who didn't always know what other
people were talking about
"Que" is Spanish for "what"
Not sure about the French equivalent.
He probably would have testified at the murder trial as well.
I'd be hiring a good bodyguard if I were her brother.
Of course,with those darn pistoleros de infartos it wouldn't really matter.
Liberalace do don the bumpkin dunce cap going forward. If you can set a plug gap and points we'll give you extra credit for shop class.
Que? Spanish "What"
"If the trial bears it out and find the ex-cop guilty as charged, him and the town should pay tons in punitive damages."
'Him' is an object/prepositional pronoun. 'He' is the subject pronoun.
RIP: Faith in public education
Virginia (some call it tort reform) put in a punitive cap of $350,000. Any award by a jury over $350K in punitive damages is reduced to 350K in all Virginia cases. You are not allowed to tell the jury that either. France did a great service to this country by supporting us in the Rev. war and selling the Louisiana Purchase to us.
Very suspicious ain't it?
@ Punitive.....France...cheese eating surrender monkeys. Truman decided to back France in Viet Nam, bad move...as soon as we moved in they split. Ho Chi Min reached out to the Truman administration on numerous occasions, and he was largely ignored. Truman subscribed to the "domino theory". But the fact is that the Vietnamese had been fighting Chinese aggression for two thousand years...successfully. WW2, they handed France to Hitler on a silver platter...then stood there and cried as the Germans paraded through Paris. Every country France colonized was left in total chaos when they bugged out and are now some of the most impoverished nations on Earth. Colonialism at its lowest common denominator. Freedom Fries Forever!!!!
RIP: Deodorant in Paris
@ Dolemite...we are all impressed with you extensive grasp of the English language. But, your political beliefs show a certain lack of common sense. The way you look down your nose at Liberal lace is a classic progressive tactic. Are you a student of Obama Tactics?
"The way you look down your nose at Liberal lace is a classic progressive tactic."
:laughing at the irony:
lol...maybe Dolemite will come on and define "irony" for you...
Whoa, Nelly. I didn't know you had access to my political beliefs. Do tell me more about them and the problem with common sense. It will be interesting.
On the English front there's really nothing extensive at work in the post above; just pointing out some very simple stuff to a routinely bumptious commentator, that's all.
Oh you did realize that you were the brunt of a pretty good chuckle 3 posts up, didn't you? I don't want to be pedantic or progressive by explaining it though.
@Nelly...don't be so hard on Dolemite. She is correct in her post; I was so enamored in my attempts to go back to French class that I putzed my pronouns. I appreciate that she rapidly sought out and opened her old grammar books to correct me. She did me a service.
However, she must realize that I am not a product of public education but, rather, Catholic education. The nuns would smack my knuckles silly for the incorrect use of a pronoun.
I am not sure why she would consider my posts as "bumptious," but perhaps her rather offensive post towards me was her attempt at irony. Equally curious is her citation of a rather benign post of mine as "bumptious." However, I am pleased to see Dolemite can pull the old Random House dictionary out of the cobwebs to make herself sound wordly.
R.I.P.: Bert Convy
Liberalace 'bumptious' is a great word. It has a great sound, and it's an accurate description for the tone and content of a lot of your posts. Really wouldn't you be happier preaching to the converted in the "Cracker Barrel" (the NBC 29 lowbrow white anger channel) ? Most of the time you're just mildly bumptious with your right-leaning posts but you invite correction when you start carping about others' use of French in the forum and railing about "how enamored this little town is with the socialist bedwetters." We can tolerate your lowbrow "RIP: Buddy Hackett," schtick but don't get all high and lower middle whitey about someone using a bon mot to spice up their own posts. And why does a provincial have it in so much for the Frogs anyway?
But thanks for giving the Catholic insight, so let's try a different tack (hope you don't get all upset about nautical metaphors): Don't you feel *guilty* wasting all that education that Sister Mary Pontificate sacrificed so much to provide for you?
Professional hit job. No the least bit of doubt. The Culpepper Mafia is DEADLY and will continue to be until every last one of them is on the other side of the grass.
The "Culpepper mafia" is one dude. He'd have to call in a specialist from a big city. A specialist!

Today we learned about all kinds of foolproof sex tips for men, but turning ladies on with super sexxxy things like toast and Nutella can be confusing. So Ding-DangBlog smartly requested more specific instructions on how to achieve the best possible love life:
"Toast" is too general.
What kind of toast gets her hot? White, wheat, marble rye? Also, are we taking lightly toasted or dark? There are too many unanswered questions here. I'll just put nutella on my junk. I don't want to look stupid trying to arouse my lady with the wrong toast.

"Though feminism greatly increased respect for women's talents and abilities, it became party to a widespread cultural attitude of self-pity and grabbiness, the antithesis of Christian faith. Orthodoxy, with its examples of noble, courageous women who sacrifice all for Christ, is the antidote, as Sarah Cowie shows in this much-needed and excellent book."
—Frederica Mathewes-GreenNPR Commentator and author of many articles and books, including At the Corner of East and Now
Orthodoxy is considered to be "the best kept secret in America." It is the fastest-growing church in the United States. The beauty of Her services, the longevity of Her Tradition, Her position as the original Church, founded by our Lord Jesus Christ, are all highly attractive to world-weary Westerners looking for depth and spiritual validity. And yet this very Church now finds herself in a similar position in regards to feminism as the Catholic and Episcopalian churches once were. Inroads have already been made concerning liturgical language while dialogue is being encouraged regarding "women's role in the church," especially in the question of women's ordination.
How the Church answers this challenge, the decisions that will be made on all levels — personal, parish, diocese, national and international — will effect the life of the Church, spiritually and practically, for generations to come. At this critical juncture comes a critical book: an examination of feminism from an Orthodox perspective. Based on years of research, More Spirited Than Lions traces the historical development of feminism, outlines its basic assumptions and beliefs, assesses its contributions, and offers an Orthodox critique to the feminist platform. Most importantly, it offers thoughts for an alternative approach, namely the ideal of Christian womanhood, as found in the Tradition of the Church.
Sarah Cowie has a degree in sociology from the University of New Hampshire. She is the president of the Orthodox Author's Association. Sarah's poetry and other writing has appeared in the Ligorian, Christianity TodayMessenger of St. Anthony, The Orthodox Word and the Handmaiden. Her daughter is a nun in an Orthodox monastery. Sarah was once a committed feminist in the New Age movement. The fruit of her pilgrimage from feminism to the Orthodox Church is "More Spirited Than Lions."

This is the Original Floyd Rose® brand double locking tremolo famous for deep diving bends and tuning stability! The strings are locked at the bridge and at the nut allowing aggressive tremolo use with the confidence you'll come back in tune. Micro-tuners on the tremolo make for easy fine tuning adjustments. It features hardened steel construction throughout, a removable tremolo arm and original saddles for plain-end string anchoring. This is the preferred modern tremolo for many premium guitar manufacturers and famous artists.
Note: There are many bridges made under Floyd Rose patents. Unfortunately, their physical dimensions are not uniform. On our bodies, we only offer routing for the Original Floyd Rose tremolo and for the Schaller Floyd Rose tremolo, both of which we sell. If you are buying a new Warmoth body and are either buying a bridge on the same order or can provide us with the studs and inserts, we can install the inserts in the body for just +$10. (Must be the correct size for our mounting holes).
For 1-3/4" Nut width
To purchase locking nut separately click here
To purchase mounting studs & inserts separately click here
To purchase string retainer bar separately click here
Drilled for .390" (9.91 mm) diameter insert. Angled neck pocket recommended.
NOTE: Rout not available on Tele® Deluxe bodies. Studs interfere with pickguard.
Drilled for .390" (9.91 mm) diameter insert.
First I wanna thank Warmoth for my hookup. This was an instant change in feel and tone. Waiting for my big block! It stays in tune perfectly! I do very heavy pull ups and dive bombs, pull ups especially for those screamin' Dime squeals! Amazing tremolo! It is worth every penny! I put in on my ESP/LTD M100FM soo that originally came with a Floyd rose special... Great tremolo but doesn't stay in tune for long. The original Floyd is the stuff if your a heavy whammyer!
This is the perfect tremolo. I bought this for a project guitar and am thinking of having one installed on my gibson exxplorer. Anyone making a guitar and wants a floyd rose....GET THE ORIGINAL NOT A LICENSED!!!
I have owned and played many licensed floyd rose tremolos in my life but this original floyd rose is by far the best. For anyone wondering it is a original "made in germany" floyd rose. Tuning stability with pull-ups and divebombs is incredible. Add a big block to it and you will have the ultimate guitar bridge. For anyone building a guitar or replacing an old floyd rose, go with the original.

Wreath Laying Ceremony 2012: Happy Birthday Peter Cooper!
POSTED ON: February 7, 2012
Today we celebrate the life and achievements of our founder Peter Cooper. As is our custom, alumni, faculty, staff and students gather as the President Jamshed Bharucha, Chairman of the Board Mark Epstein (A'79), and Alumni Association President Peter Cafiero (CE'83) lay a wreath upon the statue in Peter Cooper park. Peter Cooper's legacy is large. His spirit was pioneering. His inventiveness and willingness to take risks and explore new ideas was paramount. Underlying these attributes was his desire for the advancement of people in need and the working class.
This inventiveness is perhaps the most celebrated aspect of his character in the narrative that survives today: the self-rocking, music-playing cradle; cloth-shearing machines; power generation from tides; the "endless chain" mechanism to pull ferries and canal boats; the first steam locomotive in America; and the trans-Atlantic telegraph cable. "I was always fussing and contriving," he said of himself, "and was never satisfied unless I was doing something difficult—something that had never been done before."
Peter Cooper's self-reliance was closely tied to his inventiveness but also to his disciplined lifestyle and "patient industry." Abandoned by his business partners in a Baltimore land deal turned sour, when the invention of the steam locomotive in England rendered useless the tracks designed for horse-drawn railroad cars, Cooper promptly built his own steam locomotive that could navigate the sharp turns in the tracks. As if that weren't enough, he began excavating the land for natural resources, found iron and went into the iron business on his own.
Most important, Cooper dedicated most of his fortune to creating The Cooper Union in 1859. Since then generations of graduating designers, artists, architects, engineers and business leaders have gone on to shape and reshape New York City's culture, workforce, and infrastructure.
This spirit of reinvention—of Cooper inventing his way out of problems and turning difficult situations into new opportunities—drives us, to turn the challenges we face as an institution into opportunities today and resources tomorrow.
Happy Birthday Peter Cooper!

I plan on installing three LED security lights to my home. I would like to have them turn on and off with a photocell. I am going to have a switch and then install the lights in parallel. I am not sure how to add the photocell.
I have also read that some photocell act like dimmers and I know that won't work with an LED. Is there a way to know if the photocell is a switch or a dimmer?

OCC Bulletin 2009-33| November 20, 2009
Model Privacy Notice: Final Rule
Chief Executive Officers of All National Banks, Department and Division Heads, All Examining Personnel and Other Interested Parties
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and other federal regulators of financial services providers – including the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the National Credit Union Administration, the Federal Trade Commission, and the Securities and Exchange Commission – have issued uniform final rules amending their regulations to include a model privacy notice that institutions can use at their option to provide initial and annual privacy notices to their customers, as required by the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act (GLBA). The model notice, which is the product of extensive consumer testing, is designed to be easy for consumers to read and use.
National banks may rely on this model notice to provide disclosures under the OCC's rule implementing the GLBA requirement, 12 CFR 40, and proper use of the model notice will constitute compliance with relevant requirements of the rule. The final rule provides detailed instructions for using the model form. The amendments made by this final rule are generally effective 30 days after publication in the Federal Register. Publication of this rule is expected by the end of November.
Currently, the OCC's Part 40 contains sample clauses that a bank can use in its privacy notice to comply with certain requirements of the rule. The final rule amends Part 40 by replacing the sample clauses with the model privacy notice. After a transition period lasting until January 1, 2011, use of the sample clauses will no longer constitute a safe harbor for compliance with relevant requirements; however, institutions may continue to use the sample clauses, and otherwise continue to design their own privacy notices, so long as they comply with the GLBA and its implementing regulations (including the requirement that notices be "clear and conspicuous").
You may direct any questions to your supervisory office or OCC Compliance Division (202) 649-5470.

Read from the beginning here. **Click on the images below for larger versions**
Photo No. 52 bears a striking resemblance to another photo in this series:
I'm going to wager that these two ladies are related:
For what it's worth, not that I needed further convincing, the photos have exactly the same imprint on the back and the handwriting on both looks to be the same as well. Here's the reverse of Mary Morris' photo.
But Cornelia's photo is pretty exciting because the notes on the back give us her marital information. Now, I have been building a Friends Album family tree in Ancestry, to help me keep track of everyone we've been discussing so far and to track the documents I find about each of them. I already had found a Henry Young, married to a Cornelia, on Ancestry. Why? Because they were the parents of a Frederick Young. I think they're the parents of this Frederick Young aka Friend No. 8:
But wait, there's more! I found the Youngs in the 1860 U.S. census and guess who is in the household? Stanley M. Young. We haven't seen a photo of Stanley yet (well, not that we know of). But we have seen a photo of Stanley's wife's brother, William Morrell!
Are you keeping track? We've now connected the Morrises to the Youngs to the Morrells! To top it all off, I think I have found all of the above Morrises and Youngs in the same cemetery on FindaGrave, which may help me to locate their next of kin. More on that at a later date.
Here's Photo No. 53:
This photo appears next to Cornelia's in the album and both are the exact same size on the same type of backing. However, this photo has no imprint on the front or back and no other markings besides the schmutz you can see on the image itself. It's an interesting photo nonetheless.

Thanksgiving, with its sense of history and seldom-changing menu, can be simultaneously one of the most satisfying and one of the most frustrating meals to host. You want to do something new and different, but really, people want to eat the same things year in and year out. So I got to wondering what would happen if, instead of trying to break free of tradition as adventurous home cooks, we leaned into it a little more with a vintage mid-century meal.
I asked my good friend Stephanie Butler (that's her to the right), a Bay Area chef who writes about food history for the History Channel, to help me understand how the meal has changed since the 1950s and '60s, and what we can do now to add some retro touches. She not only explained the evolution of the holiday's menu, she provided me with a very special recipe, below, for a classic green bean casserole, worthy of becoming a staple on any mid-century holiday table.
"The focus in the '50s and '60s was more on using convenience foods. They just made things easier," Butler told me. "Cooking had been so hard for so long. Take a green bean casserole, which didn't exist before the '60s: If you wanted to make that before, you would have to make everything from scratch, make the chicken broth from scratch and use a lot of different pots. But thanks to things like canned soup and pre-fried onions and frozen green beans, things that seemed elaborate were a lot easier to make."
Since the '60s, tastes have thankfully swung back toward fresh ingredients, but it's possible now to use the best of both worlds: Convenience foods for convenience and fresh foods for taste, to create a mid-century banquet for a modern palette.
"When you look at menus in the magazines at the time, and even in restaurants, there's a lot of cocktails, there's Jell-O salad and stuff like that," Butler said. "A lot of thanksgiving recipes would have little cocktail salads like fruit cocktails or shrimp cocktails, or drinks like tomato juice and clam juice."
"A lot of old menus have, say, a tomato juice cocktail that was popular at the time. Up, in a cocktail glass, similar to a bloody Mary. Thanksgiving is something people eat toward the middle of the day, so a bloody Mary would be another way to make it kind of retro. When people come in, instead of giving them a glass of champagne, give them a Bloody Mary.
For an appetizer, try updating the cold pile of pre-cooked shrimp by using some of the higher-grade ingredients to which we're privy in California. "It is the beginning of crab season, after all," Butler pointed out, so try serving a bit of lump Dungeness crab meat in a martini glass, for extra mid-century flair.
"If you got some big, nice prawns or something, and poach them in a nice fish stock, you could have them with Heinz 57 cocktail sauce or something and it's still really good. I don't think that ever goes out of style."
As for the main event, "it's always just been roast turkey. People try to get fancy, but let's not reinvent the wheel," Butler said. "If you look back at old menus, everybody was into giblet gravy, which is easy to make. And everybody loves gravy."
It's not necessary to get complicated in order to get retro, Butler said. "People want the same things they grew up with: Stovetop stuffing, green bean casserole, cranberry jelly in a can." This is where the convenience foods earn their title.
One classic of the era is the sweet potato casserole topped with marshmallows, which is certainly dated. "Instead of marshmallows, you could bring in maple, or orange juice to highlight those flavors," Butler suggested. Or convert it to dessert.
"If you miss your traditional sweet potato casserole with marshmallows, you can do a sweet potato pie. And if you want to get fancy, you can put little marshmallows around the edge. Things on fire were really vogue around this time, so if you had a crème brule torch, you could toast the marshmallows around the edge."
Toasted marshmallows and bloody Marys? Thanksgiving can be exciting after all.
New and Improved Green Bean Casserole
Serves: 6-8
Time: About 1 hour
1-pound green beans, washed and trimmed
Salt and black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
10 oz. sliced mushrooms, can be button, portabello, cremini, or a mix
4 large shallots
3 tablespoons flour
1 cup half and half
1 cup chicken stock
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/3 cup cornstarch
Canola oil for deep frying
Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and butter and set aside a 2 1/2 quart casserole dish. Bring a saucepan of heavily salted water to the boil, and blanch the green beans until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a separate saucepan, add the 2 tablespoons butter and heat until melted. Add the sliced mushrooms and some salt and saute until the mushrooms have given off their liquid and begin to brown, about 7 to 8 minutes. Mince 1 shallot and add to the mushrooms, saute for another 3 minutes. Scatter the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir well, then stir in the half and half, stock, and soy sauce. Keep stirring until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Add the green beans, stir to coat with the thickened sauce, and pour the beans into prepared casserole. Bake until the mixture bubbles and the beans are heated through, about 20 minutes.
While the casserole bakes, prepare the fried shallot topping. Pour canola oil into saucepan at a depth of 2 inches, and heat until 350 degrees. Slice the shallots into rings about 1/8 inch thick. Separate the rings and place them in a bowl with the 1/3 cup cornstarch, tossing to coat. Ready a baking sheet or large plate with a layer of paper towels to drain the shallot rings after they are fried. When the oil is hot enough, fry a handful of coated rings at a time, being careful not to overcrowd the oil. When the rings have fried until crisp and golden brown, about 30 seconds, remove from oil with slotted spoon and place on prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with salt. When the casserole is removed from the oven, top with the shallot rings and serve hot.

Oct. 13 Mike Matheny workout day interview
Q. Do you plan to make any changes to the roster or stick with Shelby or go to another lefty?
MIKE MATHENY: No, the roster is going to stay the same.
Q. What time did you guys finally get to the hotel and what was the mood like on the plane?
MIKE MATHENY: We got to the hotel around 6:30 a.m. and the mood was pretty under control. I think the guys got it all out of their system in Washington. There were still people smiling as we got off the plane even at 6:00 in the morning, but it was a pretty under control flight.
I was hoping they wouldn't take this too lightly and that they did enjoy it for as long as they could. But they seemed pretty focused about moving forward and getting this next series started.
Q. Even though you didn't get a good night's sleep, is it any more or less improbable what you achieved last night?
MIKE MATHENY: You know, on our flight, we were able to catch some ESPN, so a lot of highlights came through, and watched the same thing multiple times and really still kind of taken back. I'm going to have to watch that game over again. It still hasn't really sunk in, at least to the extent of what these guys did. The bats they put together, the innings that the bullpen threw, I mean, it was one that goes into a category like I've never seen before personally or been that closely a part of.
So it really hasn't sunk in, but that day will come. Right now we can't spend too much time on that, we need to get ready for the next one.
Q. Do you have a favorite memory or two when you were with the Giants and is there somebody from that coaching staff, maybe Righetti or Wotus, who influenced you as a manager?
MIKE MATHENY: Yeah, I believe I was influenced by everybody I've been able to work with and under going way back. I think coaches at all levels really don't realize the impact they have in the development, especially kids. So I think about things that I've learned from coaches back in Youth League.
But obviously coming into the end of my career here in San Francisco I was able to spend a good amount of time with Dave Righetti, with Ron Wotus and Mark Gardner, and it's a quality group of people over here. And I was very fortunate to be a part of this organization for a couple of years and watch some young careers begin, like a Matt Cain, I knew Tim Lincecum was on the way. And Buster Posey through the Minor League system. Brian Sabean and the ownership here in San Francisco has done a great job of setting a great foundation for what this organization is all about, and the fan base has been phenomenal in their support. It was a nice place to play, and definitely learned a lot of things.
Q. Just to go back to last night one more time, you were on those Cardinal teams that did a lot of winning and a lot of big nights. Can you describe what that dugout was like in the 9th inning when all that was happening and the momentum kept building and you're getting closer and closer and closer? I know you're trying to run the game, but what was it like just living through that in the dugout?
MIKE MATHENY: Yeah, that was something that I tried to explain to my wife this morning, is I really wish most of the time that's not something you'd wish is to have the dugout atmosphere kind of recorded and monitored, but there was so much going on in that dugout from the first inning. And I give a lot of credit to Chris Carpenter, to Skip Schumaker, guys that weren't necessarily right in the mix at the time, but there was an atmosphere there that I'd never seen before. And it was borderline high school football, where the guys are screaming at the top of their lungs.
But the message was pretty consistent, was keep playing this game, and something good's going to happen. And then it turned into, this is going to be a story people are going to remember if you guys just keep going. It was impressive because it became contagious.
And then I think one of the things that pushed it over the top was when we see Adam Wainwright give up six runs, go up in the clubhouse and then come back down, and was on the top step cheering as loud as anybody, instead of hanging his head. And I think that just says volumes about the character of this team and these guys individually. But there was a life to that bench like I've never seen. I don't think it would have happened without it.
Q. I'm not sure how much of the Giants Reds series you were able to watch, but you're familiar with going to Cincinnati and how tough it is to win there. What is your impression of the Giants winning three straight elimination games in that ballpark?
MIKE MATHENY: Yeah, that's a tough ballpark to win. Especially going into late innings and having the home team advantage, the ball jumps out of there and things can turn in a hurry. It's a good club. We saw plenty of Cincinnati this year, and they have a good team. And for this club to be down like they were and go into Cincinnati and take care of business is something I know that they're very proud of and should be, because it's not an easy task.
Q. That was sort of along the lines of my question, so what does that mean for the last two World Series winners here, how this series might go, when both of you had these remarkable comebacks?
MIKE MATHENY: Yeah, I see a knockdown drag out ahead of us. I'm certain Major League Baseball has to be very pleased with the caliber of baseball that's happened so far this postseason. And I don't see any reason why the excitement wouldn't continue. In my opinion, we're looking at two very well rounded teams.
We have a lot of respect for Bruce and the Giants and this club and what they have. And they have all the components you need for winning baseball, with the pitching and defense and offense that can run up some scores. So we understand that, but we're also very quick to look in the mirror and realize that we've got a pretty good club, too.
Q. Descalso, can you talk about the game he had last night and his emergence this season. And secondly, what kind of strategic problems do the Giants present for you?
MIKE MATHENY: Well, the first part with Daniel Descalso, he's somebody that has the respect of our entire clubhouse. A group of guys who have had a lot of accomplishments, really understand and appreciate the style of baseball player that Daniel Descalso is. And I think he's shown the world what he has. He's just a ballplayer. He's gritty. He's hard nosed. He's smart. He plays instinctually. He's always been able to play very good defense. We've moved him around all over, and really ran him through the ringer this season, where it was platooning, he was a bench player for a while. There were times he was having trouble getting his swing going, and he was pressing.
But he really did figure out how to take advantage of the opportunity when that opportunity presented itself, especially when Furcal went down. We needed somebody to take control of second base and Daniel Descalso did that, and he's been just huge for us down the stretch here; both guys in the middle of our infield have.
Strategically as you try to plan out, you can't script what's going to happen. And that's the beautiful thing about this game. We know some of their strengths, but I think it's more important that we focus on our strengths and adjust as we go.
Q. As a former catcher, does it intrigue you at all to see the matchup of catchers, Molina and Posey, and looking across, what are your impressions of Posey?
MIKE MATHENY: I've always been a big fan of Buster Posey. I was able to talk to him as he was a young player coming through the Minor Leagues in the Giants organization. And it didn't take too much foresight to realize that he was going to be special. You could see his makeup, leadership, natural leadership skills he has. And obviously he can swing the bat a little bit.
But he's done a terrific job, especially as you look at the obstacles he's had with coming back from a tough, tough injury and still being able to get back behind the plate. I admire the fact when many of the conversations were going towards him moving to first base how adamant he was that he was a catcher. And I understand that mentality. But he's done a great job. He's had a fantastic season.
I will, however, stand behind the fact that Yadier Molina has impressed me more than any catcher I've ever witnessed. The things that he does that are intangible that you can only see by watching every day, and watching from a very critical eye. But he has everything that you would ask for from a catcher defensively.
And then there are some things offensively people didn't think he would be able to do, and that was just enough motivation for him to figure out how to do it. And that's the makeup of a Yadier Molina. I know Buster has to have a lot of consideration as the most valuable player, but from where I sit I don't know how Yadier Molina couldn't be in that conversation, as well.
Q. Can you recount kind of your earliest impressions of him when he was coming up through the system and how long did it take you to realize that he was going to be a very special catcher?
MIKE MATHENY: Yeah, I've shared this story a few times, but when I came over to St. Louis I remember coming home after a Spring Training workout and I told my wife I saw the kid that's going to steal my job. And I knew he wasn't ready yet, as he was still young. But there wasn't much question. And the thing that stood out to me was how respective he was and how open to learn and to improve and to grow, which you wouldn't expect from a young player who has two brothers in the big leagues already in that position. You'd think that he already had it all figured out. But he was the complete opposite.
And all he had to do wanted to do was work. He was in the hands of Mr. Dave Ricketts, who was one of the finest catching instructors that I've ever seen.
All that combined with just a toughness. And I always wanted to give credit where credit is due, also, and Albert Pujols made a huge impact on Yadi as a player, helped him with his offensive approach. I think we all saw that Yadi, just from his ability to stay away from the strikeout and put the ball in play that he was going to be a good hitter some day. But I think Albert helped him take that to another level. But Yadi had a lot of people investing into him with his family and people from the outside, but he had to do it himself. He had to take what he was given and make the most of it, and continues to get better. I don't know that we've seen the best of him. I think there's even more there. He's special.
Q. Lynn, Carpenter, Lohse, Wainwright, is that correct for the rotation?
MIKE MATHENY: Yes.
Q. And secondly, how do you, in your words, how do you lose Pujols over the winter and then you lose Berkman, Furcal late in the season and it doesn't matter, here you guys are again.
MIKE MATHENY: The first part of that is we had very clear conversations that we were going to focus on what we have. This game presents many distractions for these guys. There are so many that you could become completely numb if you allow yourself. But it's a mind game to not allow yourself to go there and for our guys to focus on what we can control and the things that we do hold and not to be somebody that we're not.
So to have someone go out and feel that they had to be an Albert Pujols, they were setting themselves up for failure. For a young manager to come in and be a Tony LaRussa, I was setting myself up for failure. And we looked at ourselves and said what we have here is good, let's trust it and trust each other.
With that being said, the adjustments being made and the adversity that this team has faced has been overcome to me because of a very strong, talented group of men with high character. And with character comes the perseverance, the relentless it's just a makeup and side of them that I believe was something part of them for a long time. I think it was strengthened last year through 2011 on what they did down the push and all the way through the postseason.
But all things considered it's been a very talented group of guys who have willed themselves to be in the position they're in right now.
Q. You just touched on replacing Tony LaRussa, in that vein could you talk about how Derek Lilliquist has come in behind Dave Duncan, and how that transition seems to have been?
MIKE MATHENY: Forgive me for not bringing up Duncan, I think everybody in the game knows the impact he's had on this organization and on the game of baseball. And the reputation deservedly so that he has.
The same thing rings through, we weren't asking Derek Lilliquist to be a Dave Duncan, as the guys would see right through that. And that phoniness usually doesn't lead to anything productive.
So Derek has been himself and has been very, very impressive. He has a great sense for the game. He has a great sense of people and how to communicate. He has a great balance of mechanical knowledge to where he helps these guys where they do need it, but not overbearing to where they won't be effective.
His biggest asset, in my opinion, is that he has a great idea of how to put together a game plan. Keep in mind, too, we're all better because of Yadier Molina behind the plate, as far as game calling goes. And as far as the game presentation, Yadi and Tony Cruz have done a terrific job of putting their time in, but don't want to look past what Derek Lilliquist has done because he's done a great job.
Q. With Yadier Molina and Posey and Mauer being among the batting leaders, is there an increased glamour in the position of catcher, and become more appealing to young players? And you talked about the mentality, could you explain that, maybe explain what drove you to become a catcher.
MIKE MATHENY: Well, I think there should be an increased awareness, and I think the offense production helps that for the young players. I think all the gear and the cool accessories that the sporting goods industry has helped put on the catcher I think is helpful.
But there's not a lot glamorous about the position, and it just makes it that much more rare that we're talking about some very effective offensive players who grind through that position. The rigors of that position day in and day out, physically and mentally, are really hard to describe.
But I see these guys setting kind of the framework for that to change. I think that it's a position that once you fully dive into it and as for my personal experience, once I figured out how much goes into the position, how involved you are, it was truly hard for me to play anywhere else.
I started at the age of ten catching and really only caught. I don't suggest that for most kids, and any coaches out there listening, not necessarily the right way to go. I think kids should just play the game and increase their athleticism by playing multiple sports, multiple positions.
But for me it did work out that way. But I fell in love with the position and continued to. And I thought I was going to really struggle this season, because typically I couldn't just watch a game to watch. I was analyzing pitches and pitch selections and sequences and the movements of the catcher. Fortunately I've had enough other things to keep my mind on I just let Yadi do his job and got out of the way.
Q. Can you talk about a player like Ryan Theriot how he helped your ballclub last year, and how you feel about having him in the opposing dugout this year?
MIKE MATHENY: Well, I wasn't that involved with Ryan as a position player. I was involved with the catchers more last year and with the front office, so I didn't get to spend that much time with Ryan, but I know that the guys in this organization have the utmost respect for him as a professional and a guy who knows how to win. It's been a situation where if you have a lot of talent and you have experience, seems to make you an asset to any team, and obviously Ryan has been an asset to the Giants club.

Niedorp (Noord-Holland, Netherlands)
Nieuwe Niedorp and Oude Niedorp (formerly commonly called Nierop) are two villages in the province of North Holland. Soon after 1530 the Anabaptists were numerous here. On 6 March 1535, the attorney general of the Court of Holland, Reinier Brunt, made a raid on Nieuwe Niedorp nd arrested eight Anabaptists; he had them executed in Monnikendam, where he had set up his headquarters. Several days later he seized three more, and had them hanged on the spot; the house of Jan Walichs, where they had worshiped, was torn down; and in June 1535 others were apprehended. Still others escaped, for example, Jan Gijsbrecht, who in 1542 fled from Niedorp to Emden, East Friesland.
Afterward a Mennonite congregation developed in each village, though probably neither was large. The Oude Niedorp group belonged to the Frisian branch and was a member of the Frisian Sociëteit in North Holland. The group in Nieuwe Niedorp called itself the United Waterlander and Flemish congregation, and later belonged to the Zonist Sociëteit.
The two Mennonite congregations united in 1803 under the name Oude en Nieuwe Niedorp. In 1857, both church buildings being in a state of collapse, it was decided to build a new one in Nieuwe Niedorp. It was dedicated 25 October 1857 by Inne Thyssen Taconis. The old church of Oude Niedorp was demolished in 1860. The 1857 meetinghouse of Nieuwe Niedorp was replaced by a new one in 1879. The baptized membership was 32 in 1847, 64 in 1861, 164 in 1900, and 109 in 1957. During most of the 18th century the pulpits of both Oude and Nieuwe Niedorp were vacant. In 1813-1831 Johannes Michiels Bakker served here, and in 1841-1865 Inne Thyssen Taconis, the last untrained preacher; he had been appointed as ministerial candidate by the Conference of Friesland. Taconis was followed by K. S. van der Meulen 1865-1904, D. Haars 1905-35, Miss T. Rothfusz 1942-46, and Mrs. E. Franken-Liefrinck 1949- . From August 1940 until March 1941 P. J. Smidts, pastor of Den Helder, who was forced to leave this town because of the war, lived in Nieuwe Niedorp, taking care of the congregation. They had a Sunday school for children, and a ladies' circle.

I hope you like the colour brown, because it's the real star of this year's Madden 12 cover art, both versions of the game looking more like a Gears of War map than something from a game played on bright green fields.
The regular edition of the game, featuring cover star Peyton Hillis, can't help it. He plays for the Cleveland Browns. Who wear brown jerseys.
The game's Ultimate Edition (which includes a hand-signed card from the cover athlete), however, is graced by former Rams RB Marshall Faulk, and in an effort to make him look all Hall of Famey, he's been cast in Bronze. Well, he's had an awful Photoshop filter applied on an embossed cover, but the intent is there.
This will be the second time Faulk has got himself on the cover of the game, having first appeared on Madden 03's box art in 2002.

2 rescued after boat takes on water off Racine
Father, son safe; water patrol tows 18-foot vessel back to a boat launch
RACINE, Wis. — Rescuers have brought a stranded father and son safely back to shore after their fishing boat filled with water on Lake Michigan off Racine.
The Racine County Sheriff's Office says its water patrol responded to a distress call around 8:30 a.m. Saturday, about four miles off shore. The caller told dispatchers the boat was taking on water and the engine wouldn't shift into gear.
The water patrol towed the 18-foot boat back to a boat launch where the operator, a 51-year-old Racine man and his 18-year-old son were able to pull it out of the water.
The owner was ticketed for an equipment violation after authorities determined a water intake was not connected to the engine properly, causing water to flood the boat instead of cooling the engine.

Looking back on it, the mid-'90s were a rather peculiar time. Iraq had only been invaded once by the West and everyone generally agreed on it, the global economy was entering a golden phase of growth and vitality, and *The Presidents of the United States of America *had a massive hit on their hands with their self-titled debut: a collection of off-kilter power-pop tunes released in the glut of so-called 'alternative' bands flooding the global marketplace in the wake of the Seattle grunge explosion.
Fast-forward over a decade later and we now find Iraq in chaos following a repeat invasion, the global economy on the brink of total meltdown and The Presidents of the United States of America are back with their fourth LP, These Are The Good Times People. Another collection of off-kilter power-pop tunes released in a marketplace now glutted with guitar bands looking to unearth and repackage every past musical style imaginable.
Well, as you've probably guessed by now, These Are The Good Times People is a mere shadow of its '90s counterpart that struggles to retain any of the President's early charm. 'Lady Bug' sticks to a harmony drenched twang unfortunately favoured by podgy Canadian hucksters The Barenaked Ladies._ 'Truckstop Butterfly'_ makes the mistake of trading in the pop for a watered-down take on goofy country rock while 'French Girl' begs us to "always fall in love with a French girl" as the band do their best impression of a pre-pubescent Foo Fighters recovering from a bout of puppy love contracted while studying abroad.
Honestly, in the wake of current global events, if _These Are The Good Times People _is really meant to be a sign of 'the good times', then the end days just might be closer than any of us think.

Okay, I don't really get down into the nitty-gritty of circuits much and I don't know a shit-ton about historical fuzzes.
I know enough to know that the Musket side of my twosome is based on a muff, although it's obviously more versatile and I like it a lot better than the other muff I had.
Is the Fix'd Fuzz similarly based on an older circuit(s)? Or is it sui generis?

prieto picudo old vine planted ca 1920 Bodegas Margon , DO Tierra de Leon , Pajares de los Oteros spain castile and leon
Bodegas Margon, Tierra de Leon, Castilla y Leon, Spain, stock photography samples, by Per Karlsson, BKWine.
THIS IS ONLY A SELECTION OF SAMPLES. Use the image SEARCH function to find more relevant photos.
Bodegas Margon is the creating of the two families Martinez and Gonzalez in the Léon region. It is located in the small village Pajeres de Los Oteros in Castilla y Leon (Castile and Leon) in north-west Spain. The DO (Denominacion de Origen) is Tierra de Leon.
The bodega was created only a few years ago so the winery has been built recently. Nothing seems to have been spare in equipping the winery with the latest vinification technologies. There are shining stainless steel tanks as well as handsome wooden fermentation vats. There is a barrel aging room filled with oak barriques for the aging of the wines. The winery is run by the oenologist and winemaker Raul Perez Pereira together with Eugenio Gonzalez Rubio and Alfredo Martinez Cuervo, co-owners.
The main grape variety for the wines is the local prieto picudo. The vines grow on dry land, are planted with a very low planting density (there is so little water so the density must be kept low), some are approaching a hundred years. They make a range of wines, all under the brand Pricum (perhaps unfortunately chosen, for the English market). For example: Pricum Rosado; Pricum Albarin Barrica made from the albariño grape variety and aged in wood, Pricum Albarin Valdemuz a white wine where albariño is blended with verdejo; the red wines Pricum Prieto Picudo, Valdemuz and Paraje de El Santo, and a sweet white Pricum Aldebaran Vendimia Tardiva.

Among the hopes being pinned on the Obama presidency is one by American farmers and agribusiness that, at long last, meaningful steps can be taken toward easing the almost half-century-long standoff with Cuba.
Obama, the 10th president since the U.S. economic/trade/travel embargo was imposed in 1962, indicated during his campaign that he would be willing to open a dialogue with the nation just 90 miles from our shores.
"That's more than we've seen in the last 50 years from any of our presidents," says Chris Garza, trade specialist for the American Farm Bureau Federation.
Obama has promised to rescind the Bush administration's onerous restrictions on travel by Cuban Americans to visit family and on sending money back home to family members. Although U.S. agricultural interests would like to see the embargo lifted, Obama has said it will continue to constitute "leverage" in dealing with the Castro regime. He nonetheless has indicated a willingness to talk with Cuban leaders "without pre-condition."
In pre-embargo days, Cuba was a leading market for U.S. rice and other agricultural products, and a favored winter travel destination for Americans. Since sanctions were imposed, the rice market has gone to the Far East, which entails huge shipping costs compared to rice from U.S. ports.
Farm Bureau's Garza says lifting the embargo would be good news for Cubans and the struggling U.S. economy — "an opportunity for us not only to create better relationships with Cuba, but also to improve the overall financial situation in the U.S.
"We have to look at every opportunity to rebuild our economy, and one of those ways is trade. Why shouldn't we be allowed to help our economy by trading with Cuba, just as we do with China?"
Currently, the market value of U.S. trade with Cuba is between $400 million and $500 million, Garza says. "Economic studies indicate it could easily be a $1 billion market for U.S. agricultural products."
While American farmers are currently allowed to sell to Cuba, restrictions imposed on those sales by the Bush administration make such transactions a bureaucratic nightmare.
To purchase U.S. ag products, Cuba must pay cash in advance and jump through complicated letter of credit hoops involving multiple banks. So much as a comma in the wrong place can necessitate starting over, sources say.
"This increases the cost of doing business with Cuba," Garza says. We want to remove those cost factors, and treat Cuba as we would any of our other trading partners.
"What we see with the Obama administration is that they're at least willing to reach out to the Cubans to find out if there is a way to actually get beyond this embargo, and through that we can take the steps of slowly chipping away at the restrictions that are in place."
Legislation is already aborning for the new Congress aimed at removing restrictions on trade with and travel to Cuba. But many who have watched this drama over four-plus decades say a lot will still hinge on how willing the Castro regime is to work with the U.S. on meaningful reforms.
