NEW YORK (AP) � A wayward dolphin that swam into a polluted canal yesterday died before high tide, marine experts said.
The deep-freeze weather hadn't seemed to faze the dolphin as it splashed around in the Gowanus Canal, which runs 1.5 miles through a narrow industrial zone near some of Brooklyn's wealthiest neighborhoods.
Marine experts had hoped high tide, beginning around 7:10 p.m., would help the dolphin leave the canal safely. But the dolphin was confirmed dead shortly before then, said the Riverhead Foundation for Marine Research and Preservation, which didn't know how it died.
Earlier, with the dolphin splashing around in the filthy water, bundled-up onlookers took cellphone photos, and a news helicopter hovered overhead.
The dolphin, which appeared to be about 7 feet long, surfaced periodically and shook black gunk from its snout in the polluted water.
The New York Police Department had said marine experts with the Riverhead Foundation had planned to help the dolphin this morning if it didn't get out of the canal during high tide. The foundation, based in Riverhead on eastern Long Island, specializes in cases involving whales, dolphins, seals and sea turtles.
The filthy canal was named a Superfund site in 2010, meaning the Environmental Protection Agency can force polluters to pay for its restoration. For more than a century before, coal yards, chemical factories and fuel refineries on the canal's banks discharged waste liquids into the water, earning it the local nickname The Lavender Lake for its unnatural hue.
The dolphin likely entered the canal from the Atlantic Ocean through the Lower and Upper New York Bays and into the Gowanus Bay, which leads to the canal. It's about 20 miles from the canal to open ocean.
It might seem strange, but it's not uncommon for sea creatures to stray into city waters � though they don't often swim away alive.
A dolphin was found dead last August south of the canal. Another washed up in June in the Hudson River.
In 2007, a baby minke whale that briefly captivated the city wandered into the Gowanus Bay and swam aimlessly before dying.
Two years later, a humpback whale took a tour of the city's waters before leaving New York Harbor safely. The 20-foot whale was first seen in Queens, then headed for Brooklyn, took a swing through the harbor and then traveled toward open water near the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge.

The words of Saint Teresa of Ávila speak to the heart so directly that even four hundred years after her death she seems like our contemporary. Few people have ever written of the spiritual path with such immediacy, down-to-earth wisdom, and humor. Mother Tessa Bielecki has brought together here short selections from Teresa's collected works—including The Way of Perfection, The Interior Castle, her autobiography, poetry, meditations, and letters—to create a living portrait of Teresa and her exuberant spirituality. Teresa's striving for divine union was inseparable from her passionate involvement in the hardships and joys of the everyday—which makes her an eminently worthy model for modern people who seek to integrate spirituality and the rest of life.
"In this fine introduction to the life and spiritual quest of the famous sixteenth century mystic, Mother Tessa Bielecki draws upon Teresa's letters, poems, and soliloquies and other writings to chart Teresa's spiritual journey. This slim volume opens with a brief biography portraying Teresa as deeply in touch with the things of this world as well as with her holy 'Spouse' and the church to which she committed her life. The bulk of the book consists of succinct quotes from twelve different works. Readers can absorb the overview of Teresa of Avila's spiritual life, then settle back to read her own words on the stages of the spiritual journey, from the 'web of wonder' through 'disillusionment and shattering' to 'glory.' Bielecki's selections portray Teresa of Avila as a vibrant human being who loved good food, cherished friends and occasionally despaired but constantly persevered in her quest for 'divine intimacy' with her Lord." —Publishers Weekly
"From these writings one is sure to find a passage that parallels one's own life." —Cindy L.A. Jones, The Bloomsbury Review

Another Reason The NSA Needs To Go: It's Been Doing What It Explicitly Was Told Not To Do
from the there-needs-to-be-a-response deptOne of the key things that people quickly realized after last week's revelation about the NSA putting backdoors into encryption, was that this was exactly what the federal government had tried to do with the Clipper Chip back in the 90s, and after a public debate, it was rejected. The battle over the Clipper Chip was one of the key legal/tech battles of the 1990s.
And then the NSA went and did it anyway.
Jack Shafer, over at Reuters, points out that there's this pattern of the NSA not taking no for an answer, discussing the attempts to stop PGP and also the infamous Total Information Awareness program:
Zimmerman and his allies eventually won the PGP showdown, as did privacy advocates in the mid-1990s, defeating the government's proposal for the "Clipper chip," which would allow easy surveillance of telephone and computer systems, and again after 9/11, when Congress cut funding for the Defense Department office in charge of the Total Information Awareness (TIA) program, a massive surveillance database containing oceans of vital information about everybody in the United States.Basically, this suggests that even if the NSA is told to stop doing the various things it's doing, it's only a matter of time until they do them anyway. One response to this -- which many are taking seriously -- is to look into re-architecting the internet to see what can be built, ground-up with security in mind, specifically making sure that the NSA can't weasel its way in.
But the journalistic record proves we can't trust government's white flag of surrender. In the case of TIA, the government abandoned the program's name but preserved the operation, as Shane Harris and others reported seven years ago, giving it new code names and concealing it in places like the NSA. The documents Snowden stole from the NSA show the government capturing and analyzing much of what TIA sought in the first place.
But there's a separate issue as well. How do we stop basic government overreach after it's been made clear that they don't have a mandate to do what they're doing? Yes, government officials and NSA defenders like to pretend that they did have a mandate here, and will point to the FISA Court or other aspects to argue that it's perfectly fine -- but when they're explicitly doing exactly what they were denied a decade or more ago, those arguments ring hollow. But, if they're allowed to get away with it, without any response, then they'll never stop. No matter what they're told not to do, they'll just keep doing anyway, because what's the worst that happens? People complain about it?
So it seems that there needs to be a very different system in place -- on that involves real oversight, not the pathetic joke that is the Intelligence Committees of both houses of Congress and the FISA Court. And, frankly, it should be over a new organization. It seems clear at this point that you can't reform the NSA. It's rotten to its core. Yes, signals intelligence and other intelligence activities can be important and necessary, but it really seems like we need to breakup the NSA, and restructure the whole thing such that it can be built in a manner where there's actual oversight, rather than having it do whatever it wants and pretending everything is fine any time anyone accuses them of anything.

Yellow Tail The Reserve Shiraz 2005
Winemaker Notes
An intensely concentrated wine, this Shiraz initially reveals aromas of ripe cherries, blackberries, chocolate and mocha. Delving deeper into this complex wine, cracked pepper and spice fragrance are apparent with sweet French oak aromas always present. The vanilla softness on the nose leads into a full palate crammed with ripe fruits reminiscent of a basket of sweet summer berries. Seamless and well structured tannins complete this full bodied red wine.
Cellaring potential: Drink now or with correct cellaring will mature for up to four years.
Suggested food: A perfect accompaniment to this wine would be rich rare char-grilled beef and asparagus or a rich confit de canard to bring out its juicy palate.
"Bright, lively, harmonious and generous. A sleek mouthful of blueberry, currant and plum flavors, neatly packaged with hints of cream and spice as the finish sails on. Drink now through 2015."
Wine Spectator

Critical AcclaimAll Vintages
Filippo's son, John, entered the family business in 1994 and embarked on an ambitious expansion to build a new winery with a vision of blending old world heritage with new world technology. Today, Casella Wines, including Yellow Tail, is run by Filippo's three sons - John, Managing Director and Winemaker; Joe, Australian Sales Director; and Marcello, Director and Vineyard Manager. Filippo's grandchildren - Phillip and Rachelle - are the sixth generation to join the business.
A large, climatically diverse country producing just about every wine style imaginable, Australia is not just a source of blockbuster Shiraz or inexpensive wine with cute labels, though both can certainly be found here. Australia has a grand winemaking history and some of the oldest vines on the planet, along with a huge range of landscapes and climates; it is impossible to make generalizations about Australian wine. Most regions are concentrated in the south of the country with those inland experiencing warm, dry weather, and those in more coastal areas receiving humid and tropical, or maritime weather patterns. Australia has for several decades been at the forefront of winemaking technology and has widely adopted the use of screwcaps, even for some premium and ultra-premium bottles.
Shiraz is indeed Australia's most celebrated and widely planted variety, typically producing bold, supple reds with sweet, jammy fruit and performing best in the Barossa and Hunter Valleys. Cabernet Sauvignon is often blended with Shiraz, and also shines on its own particularly in Coonawarra and Margaret River. Grenache and Mourvèdre (often locally referred to as Mataro) are also popular, both on their own and alongside Shiraz in Rhône blends. Chardonnay is common throughout the country and made in a wide range of styles. Sauvignon Blanc has recently surged in popularity to compete with New Zealand's distinctive version, and Semillon is often utilized as its blending partner, or in the Hunter Valley, on its own to make complex, age-worthy whites. Riesling thrives in the cool-climate Clare and Eden Valleys. Sticky-sweet fortified wine Rutherglen Muscat is a beloved regional specialty of Victoria. Thanks to the country's relatively agreeable climate throughout and the openness of its people, experimentation is common and ongoing, and there are a vast array of intriguing varieties to be found.
Marked by unmistakable deep purple hue and savory aromatics, Syrah accounts for a good deal of some of the most intense, powerful and age-worthy reds in the world. Native to the Northern Rhône, Syrah still achieves some of its maximum potential here, especially from Hermitage and Côte-Rôtie.
Syrah also plays an important component in the canonical Southern Rhône blends based on Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre, adding color, depth, complexity and structure to the mix. Today these blends have become well-appreciated from key appellations of the New World, namely Australia, California and increasingly, with praise, from Washington.
In the Glass
Syrah typically shows aromas and flavors of purple fruits, fragrant violets, baking spice, white pepper and even bacon, smoke or black olive. In Australia, where it goes under the name Shiraz, it produces deep, dark, intense and often, jammy reds. While Northern Rhône examples are typically less fruity and more earthy, California appears increasingly capable of either style.
Perfect Pairings
Flavorful Moroccan-spiced lamb, grilled meats, spareribs and hard, aged cheeses are perfect with Syrah. Blue cheeses are perfect with a dense and fruit-driven Australian Shiraz.
Sommelier Secret
Due to the success of Australian "Shiraz," winemakers throughout the world have adopted this synonym for Syrah when they have produced a plush and fruit forward wine made in the Australian style. As an aside, Australians are also fond of tempering their fruit-forward Shiraz by blending with Cabernet Sauvignon, which adds depth and structure.

2012 CMA Single of the Year Award Prediction? – Readers Poll
The 2012 CMA Awards are on the horizon, and the countdown begins today with predictions on each of the nine major categories. You also have a chance to choose a winner for each award in a daily readers poll. Who do you predict to win the Single of the Year award at the 2012 CMAs?
The Single of the Year award goes to both the artist and his or her producer. It's the song fully produced, with consideration given to instrumentation, arrangement, effects and impact of elements other than lyrics. The five nominees all reached No. 1 with their song, and four of the five went platinum for one million units sold. Below is a case for each song, as well as our prediction. Be sure to vote and leave your opinions in the comments section below.
Blake Shelton, 'God Gave Me You': Blake Shelton's second single from 'Red River Blue' reached No. 1, and is closing in on double-platinum certification for two million singles sold. It's the only pure love ballad of the five nominees, which could help come voting time.
Dierks Bentley, 'Home': The title track to Dierks Bentley's new album is also the second single released from the project. It reached No. 1, but was not a big seller in comparison to the others up for the award. However, Single of the Year takes in to account production value, and this song is as unique as any on this list, with the exception of maybe 'Pontoon.' It's an inspiring lyric, perhaps Bentley's most meaningful.
Eric Church, 'Springsteen': Eric Church seems like the man to beat at the 2012 CMA Awards, with 'Springsteen' being one of the best songs of the decade. Critics and fans love it, and it's closing in on two million downloads much faster than Shelton's hit. Will the singer's bad-boy persona rub voters the wrong way?
Jason Aldean, 'Dirt Road Anthem': No one took a bigger chance that Jason Aldean did with his country-rap song 'Dirt Road Anthem.' The No. 1 hit was a huge commercial success, and one as important to his career as any song he's released. It's sold over three million singles to date.
Little Big Town, 'Pontoon': LBT's 'Pontoon' was the buzz song of the summer, with artists and fans tweeting about it throughout June, July and August. Fans soaked it up like SPF 30, and it became a quick radio and sales hit. In fact, it's still among the Top 10 most downloaded songs every week.
Our Prediction: Little Big Town, Church and Bentley are all part of the same record label group, and since the CMA Awards are an industry-voted awards show, this could split votes crucial to their song's success, unless there is a decision to fully support one artist or the other.
It feels like 'Pontoon' should win this award, as it's one of the most unique songs to find success at country radio in over a decade. We're going to trust our head over our heart, however, and predict 'God Gave Me You' will earn a trophy for Shelton and producer Scott Hendricks.

After news broke that someone shot at former Colts receiver Marvin Harrison last week, Harrison faced some questions about whether he had been involved in some kind of wrongdoing to precipitate the shooting. Harrison insists that's not the case.
Instead, Harrison told the Indianapolis Star, he was simply driving down a street in Philadelphia around 3:20 a.m. on Saturday when he came upon a man who was being chased by two gunmen. Harrison let the man into his car to try to help, and then one of the gunmen shot at Harrison's car.
"I didn't do anything but drive my car, pick a guy up and call 911," Harrison said. "I just happened to be in the right place at the right time for this person. The unfortunate part is things are coming out negative. I had nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing to do with it. I was just driving, minding my own business.''
The man who was being targeted, Judeau Brown, said Harrison was helping him and should be praised, not scrutinized.
"He was just helping me out at the right time. I've called him and told him how grateful I am, that he actually stopped and helped me out. He acted when I needed him. In my eyes, he really saved my life," Brown said.
Part of the reason Harrison is being scrutinized in this case is that he was tied to a previous shooting in Philadelphia: A gun belonging to Harrison was used to shoot a man in a 2008 incident, although Harrison was not charged in connection with that case.
Harrison says there's no reason anyone should be criticizing him.
"I was getting negative phone calls and I didn't know what anyone was talking about," he said. "The only thing I can tell you is when these negative reports came out on Sunday, the first thing that came to my mind is the next time something like this happens, I'll just put my head down and keep on going."
Brown is thankful that Harrison didn't put his head down and keep on going in the wee hours of Saturday morning.

Zero To Hero - Chevy 1500 ReadyLift 4-Inch Lift Kit InstallPosted in How To: Suspension Brakes on September 1, 2011
If you own a '07-'10 Chevy 1500 pickup, you probably understand the versatility of the GMT900 platform. However, what you may not know about the latest and most popular version of the Silverado ½-ton is that they love being lifted. We're not talking about adding a simple leveling kit, either. These trucks take to a 4-inch lift kit like a fat kid assaulting a cookie jar—especially when the kit in question comes from industry mainstay ReadyLift.
With little more than some basic hand tools and a die-grinder, your Chevy 1500 can escape the confines of normalcy for head-turning, pavement-burning good looks. And did we mention the increased clearance for off-pavement prowling and room in the wheelwells for a 33x12.50 tire? Yeah, it's pretty cool. Of course, we wouldn't want you to simply take our word for it, so we've detailed the installation process at DC Customs in Ukiah, California. We're pretty sure that once you see for yourself just how easy it really is, you will have no problem deciding that bigger really is better.
Our Take
With the new 4-inch SST lift kit installed on our donor truck, the truck rode better than we expected from a bolt-on lift kit system. The supple factory ride was still present, and the ill-handling, teeth-rattling vibration we might have expected from such a modification was not. All said and done, the truck functioned properly in its lifted state and accommodated the 33-inch tires with just minor trimming to the inner fender plastics. We're sure that the larger tires robbed a little fuel economy and performance from the torque-abundant V8, but not enough to leave our donor's owner with any regrets. Around town, the truck is a true head-turner, and that's what we were after.

HANG TIME WEST – Now we know for sure Stephen Curry has hit the big time. Not because he threw the Warriors on his back in the playoffs, the ultimate superstar move, not because he did it playing hurt, and not even because praise as the best shooter in the game is practically coming nonstop.
It's because the Nuggets are getting physical with him.
There is no greater status symbol than a player who demands extra attention from the opponent, and Curry is there as the first-round series returns to Oakland tonight (10:30 ET, TNT) with Golden State holding a 3-2 lead and trying to close out. That hasn't just been the case since the rowdy Game 5, either. The Nuggets have been crowding him from the beginning. Tuesday in Denver was merely the continuing escalation.
The move by Kenneth Faried of the Nuggets to trip Curry was a cheap tactic, especially given Curry's history of ankle problems, but Warriors coach Mark Jackson went over the top with the statement that Denver sent hit men after Curry. Or at least that's what it sounded like Jackson said over the laughter of Dennis Rodman, Bill Laimbeer, Kevin McHale and Rick Mahorn. And Kurt Rambis' neck says hello, too.
The series had turned testy long ago, since the Andrew Bogut–JaVale McGee scrape in Game 3 led to Bogut pointing to his chin while close to McGee, daring McGee to take a poke. In the regular season, it would have been a passing moment. In a long playoff series, it's a layer in the rising tensions.
"If there's a scorecard and we're in a boxing fight right now, they're winning the fight," Nuggets coach George Karl told reporters in Denver. "OK, we won a round (here and there), but I'm going to tell you, I'll go to any arbiter now and show the dirty shots — they're winning.
"Some of them are really good at the things they do. Andrew Bogut started it; the (Draymond) Green kid is really good at it; and Festus (Ezeli) is pretty good too…. Check the elbow to Ty Lawson's head with 20 seconds to go in the second quarter. Check that one out."
Curry and the Warriors — and especially Jackson, the former veteran point guard — could not have been surprised this was coming, even if they were bothered by the extent. Of course the Nuggets, with the benefit of bigger wing defenders to throw at Curry, were going to get physical with him. Any playoff opponent would have tried the same thing, only without Corey Brewer and Andre Igoudala.
Don't be surprised at an early technical tonight by the officiating crew headed by Danny Crawford, one of the best, to send a message it will keep order. Don't be surprised if both sides remain aggressive and the crowd at Oracle Arena, passionate anyway, is especially riled. But most of all, don't be surprised this has happened with Curry.

Happy Memorial Day. I should be finishing up the 7 Hills of Kirkland ride right about now, but instead I'm wasting time online. I am lame. I've done the 7 Hills for quite a few years in a row, now I've broken the streak.
Woke up this morning to steady rain and super soaked roads. Weather reports predicted rain all day, though here in the Seattle area, they're often wrong. It's wet out, but not all that bad.
The thought of 50+ miles in the rain didn't seem too appealing at 7:00 AM. Far to easy to bag the idea. Plus $50 (though to a good cause) to basically ride around my neighborhood made it even easier to skip it. In the past, I've met up with other folks to share the ride. This year, I'd be solo - more excuse to sleep in - nobody expecting me.
Don't get me wrong, this is a cool charity ride, the only one I ride every year. I do the 40 mile option - plus ride to the event and usually ride home as well. 3000+ feet of elevation gain. Giant brownies at the food stop. About 1500 riders join the fun. Minus 1 this year. I am lame.
Oh well, maybe I'll do the 100 mile option next year to cover my lameness for this year.

Emily Post spent last weekend at a family reunion, hosted by her grandparents in Iowa. Most of her large, sprawling family was able to attend, traveling from all corners of the country. Even she had to travel, coming from Texas where she'd stayed after finishing college. She discovered that four other relatives had traveled even farther than her. Determine each relative's full name, what their relation to Emily was (one was a cousin), and from which state each came.
1. Adam's last name wasn't Post.
2. Emily's nephew came from New York.
3. Rachel was her mother.
4. Barbara, whose last name wasn't Grant, came from Arizona.
5. The two relatives with West for a last name were the relative from Florida and her uncle.
6. Walter wasn't from Georgia.

An aggressive $80 million sewer and water improvement project has begun in The Hideout development. While primarily benefitting the population of this four-season, private recreational community, the work is expected to improve water quality downstream to Lake Wallenpaupack and beyond.
— An aggressive $80 million sewer and water improvement project has begun in The Hideout development. While primarily benefitting the population of this four-season, private recreational community, the work is expected to improve water quality downstream to Lake Wallenpaupack and beyond.
Officials of Roamingwood Sewer & Water (RS&W) Association celebrated with a traditional groundbreaking ritual on July 19. Senator Lisa Baker, the three Wayne County Commissioners Brian Smith, Wendell Kay and Jonathan Fritz, and Anthony Herzog, aid to Congressman Tom Marino, joined them.
First developed in 1969, much of the water and sewer infrastructure- pipes and mains- are over 40 years old. Repairs and maintenance have taken place over the decades, but not to this scale. Leaks and storm water infiltration have become major issues. The aging mains and sewers have been failing at an accelerating rate. As was told in their 2012 Annual Report, "Continuing to patch and replace only selected segments of this piping as they fail is not feasible for the long term. All piping needs to be replaced with new piping that can serve for at least another 40 years."
John Egan, Chairman of RS&W, called this a true milestone, involving replacing all 42 miles of water mains and sewer lines. Planning, design and funding took over three and a half years. Egan said that stopping the infiltration will improve water quality through the watershed, which drains to Lake Wallenpaupack and eventually the Delaware River.
The project will be done in two phases. Bids have been awarded for the first phase which encompasses half The Hideout and is expected to be completed in 2015. The first phase bids total $38.5 million.
Funding for the first phase includes an approximately $20 million low interest (1%) loan from PennVEST, the state financing authority, a tax free $25 million bond (3.75% interest) and rate increases for Hideout sewer and water customers.
Hideout property owners are in the third year of a three-year set of rate increases- 15%, 10% and 10% - to help cover the payments of the loan and bond.
Phase two, Egan said, "will be as aggressive as funding allows."
Betty Sullivan, president of the RS&W Board, thanked the local legislators for their support, and the Hideout Property Owners Association (POA) Board for their cooperation. She said the two boards of directors work together for a common goal, the good of the people of The Hideout.
Rep. Edward Staback (retired) as well as Senator Baker supported RS&W in obtaining the loan package.
Senator Baker stated that the state legislature is unable by the state constitution, to provide public funds for a private entity. Because RS&W is joined with a public entity, the Southern Wayne County Water & Sewer Authority, RS&W was able to qualify for the state loan.
She noted that their loan was the largest in Pennsylvania for that round of funding.
Herzog commended RS&W for being proactive, in taking action before an environmental disaster developed. Each of the Commissioners brought their congratulations. Fritz reminded RS&W to "savor the blessings we have- born of cooperation and good intentions."
Jack Lennox, RS&W General Manager, said that a consulting firm was contracted to study the extent of the problems with the sewer and water system. Probes sent into the lines sent back video of the cracks.
"The results were staggering," Lennox said. They determined that 65 percent of the water is lost through leaks before reaching Hideout homes. In addition, 75 percent of the water reaching the treatment plant was coming from groundwater and runoff infiltrating the pipes.
A plan was developed and presented to the PA Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). In lieu of being found in violation, RS&W then had to take corrective steps. DEP partnered with RS&W in ranking the critical need, giving higher financing priority.
Hideout residents have been urged to conserve water due to the current state of disrepair. As stated in the 2013 Annual report, "Although this is being addressed, system and well pumps are running continuously in a struggle to maintain reservoir levels, producing millions of gallons of water that are lost each month through evasive system leaks which are costing crews countless hours to locate and repair."
Lennox stated that the water loss reaches a critical stage in their supply on peak holiday weekends.
The contract also calls for 115 new fire hydrants throughout the Hideout community.
The Hideout serves over 3,200 homes with the development overlapping Salem and Lake Townships. The number of property owners and dependents considered equates to a population well over Honesdale Borough. RS&W is a separate entity from The Hideout POA.
Water for The Hideout is pumped from five wells. Approximately 576,000 gallons per day are pumped, disinfected and delivered to storage tanks, reservoirs and the distribution system supplying the Hideout community.
Quarterly sewer and water rates for 2013 are $269 for a developed lot and $172 for an undeveloped lot.
RS&W maintains a web site at www.rswanepa.com.
Information on The Hideout POA is found at www.hideoutassoc.com. Ed Latalladi is the new POA general manager.

Celebrates the work of the glass designer and artist Sara Wood. Shown here is her exquisite interpretation of winter, spring, summer and autumn in the hand blown glass globes.
The theme, which concerns Saras main body of work, is colour and contrast within nature. After graduating with a First-Class Honours Degree specialising in Architectural Glass, Sara is now working at a Glass blowing studio where for the past 5 years she has been developing her skills to produce her design ideas in a three-dimensional form.
The vivid colours of the glass contrasts beautifully with the oiled rust patina of the sculpture itself.

Of the many disputes in which I find myself over the state of the wine world, many come down to the difference between the view from my window and the view the other person sees when they look out of theirs. I say, for instance, that most people aren't very interested in wine, or - in the UK at least - ready to pay very much for it, and the other person responds that he or she is daily surrounded by masses of enthusiasts eager to hand over their £20 notes. (Ok, I'm exaggerating for effect here, but you know what I mean).
And often, of course, we're both right. The view from my window includes lots of boring-but-true statistics; the view from his includes handfuls of £20 notes.
To illustrate how we can both be right, let's shift away from wine for a moment and look at the craft beer movement in the US. By any standards, this is a remarkable success story. From near extinction in 1979, the number of breweries has grown to nearly 3,000.
More recent statistics put the number at closer to 2,400
According to the US Brewers Association statistics I've reprinted below, the sector is continuing to grow - at over 15% pa, is worth over $10bn in retail sales and employs over 100,000 people.
This is all very exciting, but to put it into context, craft beers still only represent 6.5% of US beer sales. This may well continue to grow, but will it exceed 10%? I happen to love interesting beer and applaud this explosion in the number of US breweries that produce it (the British market share is still only around 2%), but looking through my window, I cannot ignore the fact that over 9 in ten glasses of beer are not full of craft beer. And that figure is not likely to change radically in the next few years.
It's possible to thrive in niches; those 2,000+ craft breweries may be very profitable - or at least some of them will be, especially the half that sell their brews over the bar. But craft beer is still a niche. Like "serious" wine. And to overestimate its importance to the mass of consumers makes no more sense than to overestimate the influence a minority political party may have on the way a country is run.
In Britain, this is particularly relevant to some of the overly enthusiastic talk about UK "independent" retailers, a part of the market whose influence is probably remarkably similar to US craft brewers on the other side of the water.

Diane's Testimonials
"I had the privilege of being coached by Diane Catrambone. The results were seeing the whole picture of ME. I now understand the concept of balance. I have lost weight. I have increased my income, by working less and making more. The gift Diane gave me was knowing that I had the power to change for the betterment of me."
"I find myself today a stronger, more energetic, happier person with a much improved self image, and the ability to strive for the bar that I have gladly raised higher and higher. Thanks, Diane, for your total support."
"Diane is helping me uncover the emotional connection to my weight gain and my previous failed attempts at weight loss. Diane is helping me understand what is keeping me from losing weight and also helping me find the tools to release any mental or emotional blocks I have to weight loss. Thank you"
"Diane has made it her mission to educate me about my personal physical fitness and my nutrition. She continually pushes me to the next level of strength and achievement. Each time I meet her challenge, I feel a new pride in myself that I had not felt for quite some time. After just three months with Diane, I found that I was a size smaller, more toned than I had been in 10 years and feeling great! Achieving this level of success was a true motivator in keeping me in her program."
"You took me from feeling off track to being mindful of success along my journey. From a cluttered feeling to small steps that are manageable. From questioning my goals to this is possible. You have a way of soothing my soul and helping me be the best I can be."
"The focus is on you, which is exactly what I needed. I would recommend Diane's services to anyone. She really has changed me…not only my size but also how I feel about myself and for that, I am forever grateful."
"It is easy to work with Diane because she is truly non judgmental and helps you value yourself as you are first and then helps you on your program. With Diane I was able to break down change into small increments that were doable. This allowed me to have small successes, which kept me going as I established new routine for health and well being."
"I want to express my appreciation for all of the guidance you have given me in my quest to accomplish my weight loss goal. You have become an important part of why I believe I will succeed and finally reach my goal."
"Thank you so much for coaching me along through this year. Your professional and engaging direction has helped me to work at my challenges with a fair and more open-minded approach. Without your suggestions, I don't believe I would make myself consider possible alternate solutions before taking action or likely would take no action at all."
"I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your always cheerful disposition no matter what's going on. You are fabulous!"

The term "a two-way street" is often used in a figurative way in referring to a reciprocal situation. Reciprocal is mutual or equivalent relationship and action between two or more people. For example: When Europeans first invaded the North American continent the Native Americans were accustomed to giving gifts with the understanding the other person would in turn give them a gift of similar value unto them. If this was not done then the one receiving a gift was expected to return it unto the giver.
IT IS natural for us to feel indebted to those who were thoughtful and helpful unto us in some special way. We are more inclined to come to their aid in the future if at all possible and the opportunity comes our way.

2011 Bordeaux — Winemakers Get a Wake Up Call
When discussing the 2011 vintage, "heterogeneous" is a word that crops up more often than winemakers would like. Between the weather and the resulting wines, there was very little consistency.
Winter was cold and dry, ideal for the vines, and spring was early and hot. Vineyards were ahead of schedule from the get-go. April was the second warmest in Bordeaux since 1900, and the high temperatures continued throughout spring — heat spikes in June even caused some sunburn and stress on the grapes. As the summer began, vineyards were still well ahead of schedule. Except for the lack of water in the soils and some stress from the heat, the season looked promising. In July, though, temperatures shifted, and cool, overcast weather swept in. What began as one of the warmest springs in almost 60 years was replaced by one of the coldest Julys in 30 years. The roller coaster didn't stop though; August was wet and fall-like, while September reverted back to warm, summer-like conditions. Veraison was well ahead of schedule, and it became crucial to remove unevenly ripe bunches, mainly caused by the drought and stress of the June heat spikes and chilly July.
The 2011 harvest was one of the earliest on record—whites grapes began on August 17th and reds on September 5th. It was a particularly prolonged harvest for the reds, which finished between late September and early October.
Dry white wines are very good, and Sauternes and Barsac are potentially great. The reds are indeed heterogeneous — as variable as the weather was. Though they are far from bad, many wines lack the depth and concentration of the two preceding powerhouse vintages. Tannins are better than average, but alcohols are generally lower. These are not the vins de garde of a classic year.

Paul Ryan touts job growth and debt reduction at a campaign event in Eau Claire, Wisconsin.
EAU CLAIRE, Wisc. -- Six days before Election Day, Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan is devoting an entire day of campaigning in his home state of Wisconsin, a state which hasn't gone for Republicans in a presidential election in nearly two decades.
"We are used to being battleground states. There are a handful of states that will determine the outcome of this election and Wisconsin is one of them. And so know that we have a unique responsibility and a unique opportunity to help determine the course of this country for along time," Ryan said after proclaiming his excitement to be back home.
Mary Altaffer / AP
Republican vice presidential candidate, Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis. greets supporters during a campaign event, Wednesday, Oct. 31, 2012, in Eau Claire, Wis.
The Badger State, which last awarded its electoral votes to a Republican presidential candidate in 1984, could be a determining factor on Nov. 6.
The seven-term Wisconsin congressman (who's up for re-election to his House seat next week) was optimistic about next week's results, speaking at his first of three events Wednesday.
"So this is Wednesday morning. Think about next Wednesday morning," Ryan told the crowd packed inside Florian Gardens. "We are going to wake up next Wednesday morning and know that we have elected a leader to put our country back on the right track."
Ryan's stop here marks his 12th event in Wisconsin.
Romney was originally planning to hold a rally in Milwaukee on Tuesday but was forced to cancel the event due to Hurricane Sandy's impact on the East Coast. The GOP VP nominee stopped by two Wisconsin Victory Centers on Tuesday to thank volunteers for gathering donations to send to victims of the storm.
Ryan will head to rallies in Green Bay and Racine later today before taking part in Halloween trick-or-treating with his three children tonight.

Microsoft Releases Office 2010 for Windows Mobile
Microsoft on Wednesday launched a public beta of Office Mobile 2010, coinciding with its launch of the Office 2010 beta.
Microsoft says the app will allow users to view and edit their Office documents, use their phones as a PowerPoint presentation aid, and connect with their SharePoint Workspace Mobile accounts.
The app is available for download in the Windows Marketplace for Mobile for Windows Mobile 6.5 phones. Anyone with a Windows Mobile 6.5 phone can download and test the app until April 5 of next year.
The app appears to be a step forward for Office Mobile because it interacts exclusively with touch screen Win Mobile 6.5 phones and offers functionalities like syncing with Microsoft OneNote. We will post a hands on with the software after we've had a chance to properly test it out.

Restaurants have long been setting tables in locales with dramatic views, but often the food has paled in comparison. With the dramatic evolution of the global culinary scene, however, it's more than safe to look past the cocktail menu at many of the world's most beautifully situated restaurants. "They actually have a view and good food at the same time," said Tim Zagat, co-founder of the Zagat Survey restaurant guides. "It's a combination that was rare 10 or 20 years ago."
So where are the top places that harmonize amazing vistas with delectable victuals?

At Asiate, in New York City's Mandarin Oriental Hotel, eyefuls of midtown Manhattan's cloud-grazing buildings and the lush refuge of Central Park draw locals, tourists, and special occasion diners, and executive chef Toni Robertson is up to the task of keeping the Asian-influenced cuisine at the same high level as the 35th-floor restaurant. "The challenge I have is I have to compete with the view, but as a chef, I always win," she said.
The Big Apple is hardly alone in providing winning skyscraper meals. At Felix, on the 28th floor of Hong Kong's Peninsula Hotel, guests soak in the city's striking setting from a slick dining room designed by Philippe Starck while feasting on dishes like Tasmanian salmon with crushed eggplant-tomato horseradish cream and roasted challans duck breast with black sesame hummus.
Of course, some of the world's most spectacular restaurant views are born, not made. At Ambrosia, on the Greek island of Santorini, the island's sea-filled volcanic crater provides a rocky perch for the terraced restaurant, from which diners gaze out on an otherworldly blue sea. Santorini fava puree with grilled octopus and caramelized onions brings Grecian flavors to the Aegean seascape.
And up in British Columbia, diners at Eagle's Eye Restaurant — part of Kicking Horse Resort — survey snow-capped peaks as they tuck into Rocky Mountain cuisine infused with hints of chef Alain Soret's native France. Riding a gondola up to the restaurant 7,700 feet above sea level gives some guests the impression they're going to an alpine snack shack.
"Lots of people expect to find burgers and doughnuts up there," said Soret. They're surprised to be greeted with romantic fireside dining and entrees like roasted venison with almonds, pancetta, and juniper jus served with fig-saffron risotto.
Whether you crave rough-edged mountains or deep ocean views, a glitzy skyscraper scene or a secluded retreat, these restaurants offer mesmerizing views with menus worthy of the scenery.

Malcolm McDowell
The Mentalist
Aces High
Monster Butler
Our Friends in the North
Gore Vidal's Caligula
O, Lucky Man
Malcolm McDowell contemplates how much it costs for him to sit on the toilet when making a movie, in this interview with Denis Tuohy from 1976.
The desk-to-desk style of this interview makes Mr. McDowell look like he is visiting his bank manager for a loan. Indeed, money prays on McDowell's mind, as he reveals his next film Caligula was already budgeted at $7million, which is a lot of weight to have "riding on his neck." (It ended-up costing $22m.)
McDowell is one of the finest actors in the world, who has made more than a handful of cinema's greatest and most important films. But overall, he seems to have been often let down by his choice of roles. He talks positively about his intuition when deciding whether a script is worth doing, just by reading its first few pages. Yet, this hardly explains why he made Jezebel's Kiss or Where Truth Lies, Disturbed or some of the other straight-to-video fodder he has appeared in since 1990.
That said, it's probably not McDowell's fault, rather the terrifying lack of intelligence and imagination that runs Hollywood film studios. Personally, I'd watch McDowell in anything, even The Mentalist (where, let's be clear, his character Bret Stiles would piss on Patrick Jane from a great height, as Jane was caught by the Police, while millionaire Stiles wasn't). Compare McDowell's American TV work with his British TV performances: he may thrill in CSI: Miami, but he is brilliant in the BBC's Our Friends in the North.
For years, McDowell has tried to make Monster Butler, the true story of infamous killer butler, Archibald Hall. As of November this year, this film was once again put on hold (canceled) due to lack of funds. I sincerely hope that in 2013, the year of McDowell's 70th birthday, some producer out there has the intelligence to finance what is sure to be one of McDowell'st greater films.
With many thanks to NellyM

The study sought to answer several questions: (1) What is the effect of legal supervision on the criminal behavior of addicts? (2) Does legal supervision have time-course effects? (3) What are the differential effects of varying types of legal supervision (e.g., probation, parole, urinalysis, higher or lower number of contacts per month)? Data were obtained by conducting retrospective interviews with four separate groups of subjects from four distinct research projects previously conducted in Southern California (McGlothlin, Anglin, and Wilson, 1977, Anglin, McGlothlin, and Speckart, 1981, Anglin, McGlothlin, Speckart, and Ryan, 1982, and McGlothlin and Anglin, 1981). The first group were male patients in the California Civil Addict Program, admitted in 1962-1964, who were interviewed for this survey in 1974-1975. The second group was a sample of addicts drawn from male first admissions between the years 1971-1973 from Los Angeles, San Bernardino, and Orange County methadone maintenance programs. These respondents were interviewed during the years 1978-1979, an average of 6.6 years after admission. The third group consisted of male and female methadone maintenance patients selected from rosters of clients active on June 30, 1976, at clinics in Bakersfield and Tulare, California. These subjects were interviewed during 1978 and 1979, an average of 3.5 years after admission. The fourth group of subjects consisted of males and females who were active on September 30, 1978, at San Diego, Riverside, San Bernardino, and Orange County clinics and were interviewed during the years 1980-1981, an average of six years after their admission. Subjects included Anglo-American and Mexican-American males and females. The samples were generally representative of California methadone maintenance patients except for the second sample, which had been selected to study the impact of civil commitment parole status on the behavior of patients receiving methadone and was not necessarily representative of the overall population of admitted patients receiving methodone. Before the interview, a schematic time line on each offender was prepared, which included all known arrests and intervals of incarceration, legal supervision, and methadone treatment, based on criminal justice system and treatment program records. In discussion with the subject, the interviewer established the date of the first narcotics use on the time line, then proceeded chronologically through the time line, marking a change in narcotics use from less-than-daily use to daily use (or vice versa), or a change in the respondent's legal or treatment status, as a time interval. The interviewer repeated this process for successive intervals up through the date of the interview. Parts 1-8 consist of the interview data, with Forms 2 and 3 corresponding to the various intervals. There can be multiple intervals for each individual. Variables cover drug use, employment, criminal behavior, legal status, conditions of parole or probation, and drug treatment enrollment. Form 1 data contain background information on offenders, such as family and substance abuse history, and Form 4 data include other personal information as well as self-reported arrest and treatment histories. Parts 9 and 10, Master Data, were created from selected variables from the interview data. Parts 11 and 12, Arrest Data, were collected from official criminal justice records and describe each offender's arrests, such as month and year of arrest, charge, disposition, and arrest category. The datasets are split between the Southern California (Los Angeles, San Bernardino, Orange County, Bakersfield, Tulare, and Riverside) and San Diego clinic locations.

Product Highlights
This Tether Tools B&H Kit includes a Tether Table Aero Traveler and accessories for a portable tethering solution ideal for photographers. The Tether Table has a surface area of 16 x 14" and attaches to any 1/4"-20 tripod head, 3/8" tripod mount, 5/8" stud studio stand, or an Arca-style mounting attachment. An Aero ProPad is included to help disperse heat.
The Aero XDC, an external drive compartment, frees up valuable space on the Tether Table by mounting under the table's surface. Similarly, the StrapMoore provides quick and easy access to items you'll need during photo shoots by attaching to the leg of a tripod, light stand, pole, or beam.
The orange 15' USB 2.0 Type-A Male to Mini-B cable features gold-plated corrosion-resistant connectors, a ferrite core that filters out signal noise and reduces transmission errors, and shielding against external signal interference. Furthermore, a SecureStrap, a cable organization case, a JerkStopper camera support, and a clip-on computer support help you manage and organize your cables.
The Tether Table Aero Traveler from Tether Tools is a portable tethering platform engineered by professional photographers and aerospace engineers. Made completely of T6 aerospace aluminum, this non-reflective black textured platform is sleek in design as well as stable and durable. The Aero Traveler is perfect for small netbooks and ultraportable notebooks, thanks to its a surface area of 16 x 14" (40 x 35cm).
Located on this tripod platform is the LAJO-4 ProBracket. This bracket makes it easy to mount to any 1/4"-20 tripod head, 3/8" tripod mount, 5/8" stud studio stand or an Arca style mounting attachment.

No permanent installation is required, so you can use it or leave it in your bag.
The Aero XDC from Tether Tools is an ideal external drive compartment that is compatible with any Tether Table Aero. The Aero XDC frees up valuable space on the Tether Table due to its low-profile sleeve, which mounts under the table's surface. The compartment's tunnel design allows for easy connectivity of drives and cables. The open structure also provides efficient ventilation in order to keep the external hard drives cool and operational.
External hard drives play an enormous role in a tethered photographer's work-flow. There are several benefits to utilizing these drives, such as providing instant image access, overcoming limited internal computer storage space and implementing a real-time back-up system and protecting against drive failure.
Note: External hard drive sold separately.
The StrapMoore from Tether Tools can be attached to the leg of a tripod, light stand, pole, beam, or other object to give you quick and easy access to items you'll need during photo shoots. These could include a laptop power brick, charger, phone, off-camera flash, eyeglass case, external hard drive, water bottle or anything else you need to have on hand.
The StrapMoore has adjustable two-leg securing straps and another strap that holds the object. The interior of the leg and object straps are lined with heavy-duty GripperElastic to protect your gear and prevent slippage. And when you're not using it, simply leave it on the support, on the object or remove it entirely for storage.
The Cable Organization Case (Standard) from Tether Tools is an easily accessible, durable storage case for all of your tethering cables, straps and cable retention devices. The standard case design is ideal to store cables and additional accessories. If you are transporting or storing cables less than 20' / 6m this case is ideal.
Features include a clear front window that enables quick and easy access to exactly what you need. Keeping all of your tethering gear together, the TetherPro Cable Case fits nicely inside your Tether Table storage bag.
The JerkStopper Camera Support, exclusively from Tether Tools, is the complete tethered setup that secures the cables of your camera. This kit will remove all the stress and strain placed on the cable or cord to ensure it stays plugged in and prevents cable or equipment damage.

The JerkStopper Computer Support (Clip-On for the Aero), exclusively from Tether Tools, allows you to create a complete tethered setup when used with a Tether Tools Camera Support (sold separately) to secure the cables of both your computer and camera. This JerkStopper Computer Support will remove all the stress and strain placed on the cable or cord to ensure that it stays plugged in and prevents cable or equipment damage.
This particular computer support model uses a clip-on for the Aero as an anchor point by allowing slack in the cord in order to prevent damage or dislodging. This kit can be used with any standard A/C power adapter cord, flash sync cord, HDMI, USB or FireWire cable. It supports cable diameters from 3.5mm to 8.5mm.
This JerkStopper Computer Support is a versatile and inexpensive tool that could potentially save you hundreds if not thousands of dollars in preventative damage. Offered at an affordable price, you will find this JerkStopper Computer Support an invaluable resource on all your tethered photo shoots.
