"Memorable....gratifying and good fun." (AudioFile)
"Cheesy, but relevant"
I read this book 7 years ago, listened to it 4 years ago, and listened to it again last night. I always have the same first impression within the first 15 minutes - this is ridiculous. Why am I listening to this cheesy story about mice and little people wearing track suits in a maze? But as I soldier on, I have to empathize with many of the little comments and scenarios and am always glad I finished the book. I honestly think I should listen to this book every 6 months (or monthly, because that seems to be how often I get blind-sided by change at work!)
In addition to the story, I appreciate listening to the comments and realizing thousands of other people are getting bombarded and stressed out by constant changes as well. That touch of insight alone makes this short listen a very good investment.
"Thought provoking!"
This book has been passed around my office for the 10 few years and now it has reached my desk. Working in my division, you see constant changes in management and among your peers. As a supervisor, this book help me prepare my subordinates for changes in the office as well as in life. I even bought the childrens version for my teenagers. This book has become a life lesson for myself and my family and from us it receives much applauds.
"Great way to deal with Change!"
I enjoyed this because I could easily relate to the story. It can be applied in work or every day life.... I want my piece of the cheese but I want to find it and cultivate each goal all the while changing with the business.... MUST read for all people in the corporate world.
"Highly recommended."
Go get the cheese, very good. Easy to read, excellent to pump your energy. I definitely recommend it.

"A Cheesy Tale"
Who Moved My Cheese is a cute tale about change itself and how those who resist change can get left behind while those who embrace change can blossom and in fact, those who embrace change may even become better for it. In a specific example covered in the book, they were so worried about change that they didn't even realize that the change could lead more cheese and in some cases, better cheese altogether. To put this in our own terms – while change is fearsome because of the unknown, one also needs to realize that the "unknown" doesn't necessarily mean bad or worse and in the book we see that in this case - change happens and it's a good thing for all.
While this is just a fun tale, the analogy is one we can all learn from and relate to. In all walks of life and in whatever we do in life, humans will face change and how they deal with that change will affect them for better and/or for worse depending on the person. That said – move with the cheese and if you are able to embrace change you can become a better person from it.
"Wonderful little Moral"
This is a total must read for everyone including kids. My seven year old has listened to the story and we talk about it often. It has helped her cope with all of the changes in our lives recently including a big move, changing schools and jobs. It gives her a frame of reference of how to properly deal with her insecurity. And, me too.
"A cute and important story"
I heard a lot about this book, and even had it in paperback, but never took the time to read it, so I decided to listen to it instead. It is a cute story, and delivers a very important message in a very delicate way. But, you can get the message in about 1/3 the time, and don't need to listen to the entire book to learn it.
This was interesting, but not life changing for me. When I talked to other people about how they related it to personal relationships, getting older and not using new technology, staying at home watching t.v. instead of learning a new sport or hobby, reading the same kind of books year after year, etc. Lesson here: DON'T STAGNATE EVER !!! Those who keep changing with the flow of life, enjoy life and prosper.
I had heard about this fabled bestselling book for so many years that I finally had to try it and was astonished. It is a children's story condescendingly told like Mr. Rogers reading a bedtime story to children. Any contemporary business professional who needs this Mother Goose approach to understand organizational change is in pretty sad shape.
"Eye Opening, MUST READ!!!"
Great tool for your toolbox on your path to SUCCESS!!! Also very helpful with teaching people of all ages that CHANGE is good and very necessary for our development and success.

Lovely area in the countryside - very clean accommodation - would stay again.
lynne2016-09-14T00:00:00ZA great little place with beautiful views and a lovely local village.
Alex2016-12-06T00:00:00ZGreat location for exploring Cheshire and or venturing into Manchester, whilst being rural and peaceful. The Cottage is very pleasant with peaceful rural surroundings. Mobberly itself is very pleasant, slightly blighted by being under the flight path, but otherwise a great countryside location. Paul was helpful and I would definitely return if and when we need accommodation up in Cheshire again.
Aaron2016-08-01T00:00:00ZThe host was very welcoming leaving the cottage warm and very clean for our arrival. A lovely cottage in a great bit of countryside.
ryan2016-10-25T00:00:00ZThe perfect place to stay with our Aussie freinds. It was Cosy and comfortable and the perfect base to show them the pretty countryside of Cheshire. Thank you Paul
Jean2017-01-20T00:00:00ZPaul was extremely welcoming and helpful, lighting the fire on our arrival. Beautiful location, clean and very well equipped accommodation. Highly recommended.
Kate2017-01-01T00:00:00ZA beautiful cottage hosted by a caring host. Paul really went to every little detail to ensure that I was welcomed and had a great knowledge of the local area including events, sightseeing and the shops. The cottage is gorgeous and set in an idyllic setting. Definitely one not to be missed.
Michael2016-07-03T00:00:00ZThe area was lovely, the cottage is surrounded by field and farms, it was a charming location. We were very pleased with our experience at Paul's cottage, the cottage itself is newly renovated and provided everything we needed. It had a lovely garden where the kids could play and there were some sheep in the back field, which they enjoyed. Paul was very responsive and helpful. It was perfect for our needs.

Even though I never met carol. The experience was lovely and would recommend to anyone who wants a cosy retreat.
Alex2016-08-02T00:00:00ZHad a lovely few days with Carol at the London Road Barn. Photos don't quite do the place justice! A great host and brilliant venue.
Wil2014-10-11T00:00:00Z5 star experience all round. Hosts were outstanding! Felt like they were going the extra mile with every chance they had. The barn could not have been more homely or comfortable or picturesque. 100% satisfaction!! Almost had to be dragged out!!! Will be back.
Robert2015-02-11T00:00:00ZGreat historic place, tucked away in the countryside. Carol was gracious to welcome us later in the day. She had great restaurant recommendations too.
Krisztina2016-09-26T00:00:00ZLovely place to stay in a great location
Harriet2015-05-25T00:00:00ZLovely home, had a great time there. We really enjoyed our stay. The place was comfortable and had every amenity we needed!
Michael2016-03-24T00:00:00ZBeautiful barn. Comfortable & well equipped. Independent - great for me. Helpful hosts in setting everything up and providing helpful information. I never needed to meet Carol although I met her husband. Perfect level of communication. Not too much, not too little. I'll can see myself staying here again and again on my trips to the area.
Bob2014-11-15T00:00:00ZYou have to see the barn to really appreciate it; it is even more stunning than in the photos! We only stayed two nights but I wished I had booked to stay longer. Carol was a wonderful host, even though we arrived late in the evening she was still there to greet us and show us around the barn. With arriving later in the day it was a lovely touch that the heating had been put on prior to our arrival and that there were a number of staple items left such as milk, tea, bread, butter and jam. Carol also printed some information about the local area (Allostock) and left numbers for taxis which was very helpful. To make the place feel like a home from home there were books (something for everyone), comfy sofa's, candles, huge towels and fresh flowers dotted around the barn. Sky TV and wifi were also a great bonus. The outside of the barn is just as stunning as the inside and is decorated with a number of interesting bits and bobs such as ladders with plants on, old tools and vintage mangles which fitted with the look of the barn perfectly. To get to Knutsford it was just a short drive / taxi ride which is ideal for catching the train to Chester (40 mintues) and Manchester or even just to have a look around Knutsford itself which has everything you could possible need, from quaint little independent stores, big name brands and little express supermarkets. The barn is also in a great location for Chester Zoo which took around 35 minutes by car. Staying here beat all my expectations and if I am looking to stay / visit the surrounding area again this will be the first place I look to book.

Lovely private annex with lots of character. High quality accommodation with everything you could need. Location was great too with some good pubs and restaurants within walking distance. All aspects of the booking and the stay were smooth and allowed for a relaxing stay, would definitely recommend.
Jon2016-06-14T00:00:00ZThe host canceled this reservation 74 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
WalterThe setting and accommodation could not have been better. The photos do not do the place justice. The check in and out procedure was very straight forward and although we didn't meet Emma, she was on the end of the phone if required. If we are ever in the area again we would not hesitate to stay here again.
Emma2016-10-26T00:00:00ZA lovely cosy place to stay. Ideal for a wedding in Knutsford, the centre only a ten minute walk away. Had everything we needed for a comfortable night's stay.
Ian2016-11-22T00:00:00ZThe Annex was perfect in every way. A very well presented place with everything provided that you needed. Spotlessly clean and attention to detail was superb. Emma had provided much more than what we had expected.The Annex provided a private, peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. It is located in a gorgeous well established garden which you can enjoy whilst relaxing inside the Annex looking out through the gothic styled windows from a elevated view or enjoying outside if desired. Emma was an excellent host, always ensuring everything was ok, very friendly and personable. The location is ideal with a great traditional British pub just down the road serving great food and ales and was very good value for money. Knutsford town centre is also within easy walking distance with lovely shops and a great selection of pubs and eating places to suit all tastes. The National Trust's Tatton Country Park is also within easy walking distance and is open until 7:00pm in the summer to walkers or 6:00pm to vehicles. We would definitely stay again and would highly recommend staying. First class accommodation and host.
Caron2016-06-25T00:00:00ZThe annexe was perfect for a short stay in Knutsford to go to a wedding; we were able to walk to and from the centre very easily. It was very clean, comfortable and well appointed. We were very grateful for the lift into town and for the bottle of wine that greeted us after a long drive from London. We would definitely recommend!
Annie2016-12-20T00:00:00ZI stayed at Emma's for one night before a wedding in Knutsford. The location was perfect for a stroll in to town, the check in was painless and the place itself was really peaceful and cosy. I can't wait to return for a long weekend with my better half. Emma provided a bottle of wine for my stay along with bread, milk, butter and jam for the morning. 24 hours after I left her place I realised I'd forgotten my phone charger and Emma came to meet me with it in the centre of Knutsford. Great service indeed. Overall, a fantastic first experience of Airbnb. Thank you! :)
Michael2016-11-30T00:00:00ZDie ist eine ungewöhnliche, wirklich hübsche Unterkunft mit herrlichem Blick in den Garten. Nachts ist es leise. Emma ist sehr nett und zuvorkommend auf unsere Sonderwünsche eingegangen. Wir würden gern wiederkommen.

Start to finish a wonderful stay in Alderley Edge. Beautiful accommodation well kitted out for two, we had everything we needed to relax after a few stressful weeks! Leila, Stephen & William were all helpful, charming and polite and the dogs Zoe and Molly were adorable! Would definitely recommend this coach house to anyone wanting a weekend escape with access to beautiful walks, towns & bars/restaurants. Thanks again!
Kate2016-11-27T00:00:00ZWe stayed in the cottage to attend a friend's wedding which was held close by, so unfortunately we didn't get to spend as much time as we would have liked in this lovely cottage. The cottage itself is beautiful and has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. I would really recommend staying here, the location is brilliant and surrounding area beautiful. Would particularly recommend walking into the nearby town for a drink in The Botanist. Leila and her husband were perfect hosts, even bring me some milk for my much needed morning cup of tea! Really couldn't fault our stay and would highly recommend. Thanks again, Shauna & Tom

Sophia2016-10-07T00:00:00ZI've stayed at the coach house a few times now, since work needs me to stay over regularly. It is like a home away from home. Very comfortable and charmingly decorated, always spotless and welcoming. And the kitchen has just what I need.
Rulande2017-01-07T00:00:00ZAbsolutely lovely. Very quaint coach house. We had a little trouble finding it in the dark - but once we did we were so pleased! My husband and I were able to rest, relax, and repack everything before we set off on long plane journey home.
Artena2016-10-12T00:00:00ZPerfect - lovely welcome from Leila, speedy response, gorgeous place, sweet village, wonderful stay... I will be back and would highly recommend to everyone
Martin2016-11-16T00:00:00ZWe didn't see much of the host but communicated by text when we needed anything. But living next door available if needed. Very friendly
Richard & Jennie2016-12-08T00:00:00ZI had a great stay at Leila's beautiful and compact cottage in Alderley. The location is great and the directions were spot on!

We had a wonderful five nights in Cheryl's studio. We were very warmly welcomed to her lovely home and her communication with us was outstanding. The studio is ideally located just a stone's throw from the vibrant Knutsford town centre and Tatton Park. We were particularly thankful for the ceiling fan during the hot weather as well as a decent power shower !! We would thoroughly recommend staying here.
Nikki2016-07-25T00:00:00ZCheryl was a wonderful host. She always responded promptly. She was helpful, active, professional, and respected privacy. She was available during the check in and check out and would provide tips on local stuffs. The apartment is very comfortable, spacious and well furnished. Close to bus and train station as well as supermarket & market streets.
Tabish2016-03-20T00:00:00ZCheryl made us very welcome and explained arrangements well.She also gave good advice on local amenities such as pubs, cafes and restaurants and shops. She showed us our accommodation and brought up a tray of tea, coffee etc. for us. The room and bathroom were scrupulously clean and fresh and the bed was very comfortable. The neighbourhood was quiet and peaceful, parking was convenient and the town centre was only a five minute walk away.
Martyn2016-06-08T00:00:00ZCheryl was a great host and gave us a lot of great information. The place is also great. The studio was fully equipped with everything you could need. In a great location as well. Would stay again for sure. Thanks Cheryl.
Jessica2016-11-08T00:00:00ZMy wife and I where attending a Wedding in Knutsford Town Centre. The Wedding Venue was small with limited bed rooms. We wanted to stay local within walking distance so opted for a first time use of AirBNB. We absolutely delighted with our choice. Cheryl was welcoming & very helpful. Her home is perfect for Stay over. The Room was fully self contained and spotlessly clean. The house is literally <5 minutes walk from the Town Top Marks all round. Thank You Cheryl
Graham2017-02-06T00:00:00ZReally enjoyed my stay at Cheryl's house. The room has everything you need and the place is so peaceful set in a lovely part of Knutsford, near to King street where all the nice shops, cafes and restaurants are. As a bonus you're within walking distance of Tatton Park. Cheryl is a friendly host who obviously takes pride in her home.
Neil2016-10-01T00:00:00ZCheryl made us feel extremely comfortable in her home. She was a warm, inviting host. Her home, and the room was beautiful, as is Knutsford. I would absolutely, definitely recommend to anyone to stay here!
Megan2016-10-16T00:00:00ZVery welcoming arrival. Nice place and host. Largely self contained studio with some rudimentary cooking facilities and fridge, microwave etc. Very comfortable for our one night stay. Car park facility good and close to house. Glad we decided to leave the very large suitcase in the Car as would have been awkward taking it up the 3rd story stairs to the studio. 5 min walking distance to Knutsford wine, dining, pubs . Excellent location. Would stay again.

Millie was very welcoming. The apartment is well kitted out, comfortable and very clean. I booked at the last minute and Millie responded very quickly. I was attending a function at nearby Mere Golf & Resort Hotel. At the time there were no taxis available, and Millie's husband kindly gave me a lift in his car. Exceptional Service. Would definitely recommend Millie.
Ian2016-11-29T00:00:00ZMilly could not have been more welcoming and helpful . The private bedroom with ensuite and the sitting room with kitchenette are lovely and bright and very well appointed. I had a most comfortable stay in a very convenient location.
Susan2016-08-15T00:00:00ZHad a great stay at Milly's place. It was short but sweet. The place was clean and tidy, a great little private annex and the bed was extremely comfortable! Milly was always on hand in case we needed anything or had any questions and she had no issues with us coming back in late and was very flexible with our arrival time. I highly recommend staying at Milly's!
Amy2016-07-25T00:00:00ZA short stay in Knutsford but by the most welcoming and helpful hosts! I stayed in the main house and the double room and en suite were spotless. The room itself was spacious. Im most grateful to Milly for helping me get to a friend's wedding at short notice! Definitely hope to be back soon!
Rumana2016-08-07T00:00:00ZMilly was a perfect host and went above and beyond. The accommodation is super clean and comfortable. Would recommend to anyone to stay here, it was a great experience.
Antonio2016-04-29T00:00:00ZDelightful host, great location and really good facilities. Will definitely use again.
Nigel2017-01-01T00:00:00ZMolly's house is conveniently located about 15 minutes walk from Knutsford centre a very quiet residential area. On arrival Milly was very friendly & helpful. The accommodation was well appointed and spotlessly clean. I would certainly book again.
Simon2017-02-06T00:00:00ZCommunictation was excellent before arrival. My parents were made to feel very welcome and were provided with everything they needed for a comfortable stay. Would stay again.

Harriet2015-09-28T00:00:00ZPrior to visit Julie had good communication with us including if we wanted a restaurant booking, Julie and Phill made us feel very welcome at their beautiful home, the room is lovely with a lovely comfy bed and the en suite was a bonus and all spotlessly clean, they gave us plenty of information about the area , the breakfasts were fantastic, shame we didn't have more time to explore, can highly recommend this lovely b and b, would definitely stay again, many thanks Michael and Rosemary.

Gary2016-07-28T00:00:00ZI would not recommend this place. It was over priced the host was unfriendly and the room was dirty.
Ann2017-01-29T00:00:00ZGood location in a quiet residential enclave close to town centre bars and restaurants. Nice accommodation in a modern executive type flat.
Phil2016-10-11T00:00:00ZThis was ideally located, a stones throw from Knutsford town centre which had a number of restaurants and great bars. Cheryl, our host, was very helpful and accommodating. The room was small but clean and great for a short stay. We would definitely return.
Lynda2016-10-28T00:00:00ZIt's nice and comfy room, just opposite to Knutsford station, Aldi superstore is very also 5 mins walk. Best location for Radbroke people. :)

Surprisingly spacious, comfortable with everything I needed. It was great to be within walking distance of the town, lovely not to have to drive to the restaurants. Off street parking. Would definitely recommend and stay there again.
Annabel2016-10-15T00:00:00ZGreat location very comfortable flat
Erin2016-12-16T00:00:00ZThe apartment is very spacious, well-equipped and comfortable. It was close to Wilmslow shopping centre, but very quiet. Wilmslow has very good transport connections with Manchester and the airport. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Barbara2016-10-11T00:00:00ZThe flat was perfect and exactly as described. In fact, it exceeded my expectations as it also had a washer, dryer and iron, which is great if you want to travel light. The flat has a dedicated parking spot right outside the front door and is a two minute stroll from the high street, which has supermarkets, restaurants, etc. The only reservation I would have about recommending it is that if everyone knows how good it is I may not be able to book it the next time I'm in town!
Karen2015-10-06T00:00:00ZPaul and Jackie were very accomodating, letting us check in early after an overnight transatlantic flight. They also let us use the washer in another flat until a new one was delivered after ours malfunctioned. They never bothered us during our stay. The area was quiet and convenient to the town center and just around the corner from the grocery store. The only downside was the Internet connection which was not very reliable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Autumn2016-12-10T00:00:00ZReally nice spacious, comfortable flat!
zoe2016-10-30T00:00:00ZPaul and Jackie were great! From the start, they were prompt in response and honest in describing the accommodation. They are professional, friendly and responded to all our needs. Me and my family had a great stay and can not recommend this place enough. The location is great, being so close to airport, Manchester and easy access to motorway.
Ananya2015-03-08T00:00:00ZGreat location, central to the shops. Nice clean apartment and good lay-out. Private location with allocated parking. The only downside was the slow & intermittent wifi.

How many cycles until ur BFP?
(19 Posts)To all those graduates out there cud u plz tell me how many cycles it took for you to get ur BFP?
Also if it took a while, can u tell me if u did something different that month?
Thanks in advance for ur help xxx
7 months but that was only 4 cycles because they were completely up the spout after coming off the pill. Had 2 sessions of acupuncture to regulate them just before conceiving (having has an ultrasound to check no pcos) so that may possibly have helped...
Ironically, nine!
10 cycles.
I had a mc the cycle before, so I guess I was more fertile?
Message withdrawn at poster's request.
Thanks guys that's really helpful. That shud hopefully stop me stressing once I start TTC in January if I don't get my bfp straight away!
Congratulations and good luck with all ur pregnancies! Xx
1 every time - but I was no older than 29 so that probably helped. Just as you should be prepared for it to take a while also try and be prepared for it to take two weeks So start your folic acid and any life style changes like altering drinking pattern etc before you start ttc - because you could be up the duff very soon. Good luck!
36 & still waiting...
Five. More sex that month as was on holiday!
My first five pregnancies (three DC) within 1-2 rather wonky cycles, all under 34. I use Fertility Awareness Method and chart temperatures, take OPKs etc so that all helps with quicker conceptions.
Six cycles and BFN at 36 right now trying for our last, and my cycles have never been more regular. Doing everything right, but obviously something has changed
Three both times. Once after pill and once after coil. Both also after being poorly so not much action that month!
First one I did a handstand afterwards as a joke cos I read it somewhere! And second one just, ahem, deep!!
2.5 years and counting - I think it amounts to about 15 cycles as mine are very irregular.
It can take up to 2 years for a perfectly healthy couple to conceive so don't stress too much or put too much pressure on yourself for it to happen instantly.
Good luck.
2,2,2 then 14 cycles then 2, 2 and finally 8. I've had 3 mc though inbetween my 3 dc and I'm currently 31 weeks pg.
This is my 10th cycle and I got my BFP yesterday.
I came off the pill after 14 years last December so it's a year from that to the result; I was considering going to the doctors in the New Year if it hadn't happened by then. My cycles have been a bit irregular in length but I think that I may have had a chemical pregnancy in August/Sept as it was 6 weeks but I don't know for sure.
Both that month and this one we managed to BD throughout the OV window - though I didn't actually track this month so that was just good luck. Do you track as having a good idea of when you are likely to OV, even if you're not clockwork, is a help? I use the fertility friend app. Also, I generally stay in bed for a while afterwards to counteract gravity, as it were.
The only thing that's different this month and I don't recommend it, is that due to a particularly bad spell with my back (I have a spinal disability) I've been having to take some strong tablets which also space me out and so reduce stress.
I had the coil taken out and got pg before having AF but this ended in mc. Took ages for AF to return then 3 'norm' cycles after I got my BFP (6 weeks at mo). The first time was fluke. Started opks after mc but the month I got pg I had reflexology during my fertile period and I'm convinced that helped!!! Going to carry on during pg.
Good luck!!
First time- 6 cycles
Second time- 1 cycle- was a bit shocked!
26 cycles and counting here.
3 both times. And both of those months we only dtd once and second time were both very poorly. We are both "old".
DS 1 - was a 'surprise'.
Trying for DC2 - 14 cycles over 12 months and counting.

well, i installed win7. i customized my desktop & all (to show my computer on the desktop for example)... i installed comodo firewall & avg antivirus. & after i restarted my pc all my customization was gone! i got the normal aero theme & all (that i previously canceled)... + the system didn't allow my to run almost anything by saying something like "your current internet security settings prohibit running....." or something similar. so i uninstalled comodo firewall to check if this is what skrewed me. & no. so i uninstalled avg - & yes. this was the one. i now can run things. but for example when i want to customize mt desktop icons & show my computer on the desktop - i can't! i click it but nothing happens. so i enter the persenolize menu again - & the "V" that i checked there near show my computer is unchecked... i don't mind right now about what anti virus to use, i just want to set it to be good again. how? thanks |

If you did an upgrade, you must do it over with a clean install or you will be plagued with problems

I certainly agree
While some have managed upgrades without issue, the large majority have many issues. Clean install is always best if possible, because no previous settings or bugs are carried over nor are any new issues introduced due to previous settings. |

AVG usually causes more problems than it solves, it also wrecks havoc with Windows 7 networking, creating problems where none exist. In fact most any real time A/V can cause problems with networking.

All items sold "as is", as represented in our descriptions, and are guaranteed to be authentic. If you know something we don't about an object, please feel welcome to tune us up! We're friendly, ship several times a week, and are quick to respond to any requests unless we happen to be Jeeping the remote back-country for a day or two, in which case we'll get back to you immediately on becoming civilized again!About Us
(FOREIGN CUSTOMERS: Please see "TERMS OF SALE", "Other Information")Although long-time collectors and dealers of pearlescent antiques and artifacts, our expertise in shell has been gained through more than 40 years as a major supplier of nacreous shell (under a different business name: Duke of Pearl) to various industries, notably in the fields of musical instruments, furniture, and jewelry. We currently process around 250 metric tons of shell per year, from 18 different species, and hold three U.S. patents on shell material.
Having also been active during most of that time as professional musical instrument builders specializing and pioneering in the arts of inlay and overlay, we have a "hands-on" appreciation for both the wonderful variety of shell materials as well as the skills and techniques necessary to work them, whether ancient or modern.
Thus, our highly exercised sensual prejudices work in favor of bringing to your display cabinet only the finest examples of shell workmanship! Not all "mother of pearl" is created equal, and although certainly not the only factor in desirability or collectibility, when appropriate our item notes will reflect a sometimes brutally honest appraisal of the level of craft found in each piece. We'll make an effort to avoid empty, gushing, overwrought, generic, meaningless superlatives in describing the items we offer, while respecting your own acumen and intelligence as to what might be "fantastic" or "a must for your collection" without our needing to point that out!
We do hope your own appreciation for things pearly is refreshed and stimulated by the objects we find delight in presenting!

By N.A. Viswanathan Secretary General CEMENT MANUFACTURERS' ASSOCIATION Overview on The Indian Cement Sector and its Changing Coal Requirements
India in Globe Second Largest Cement Producer in the World, after China. State-of-Art Cement Technology. Low Energy Consumption. Produces Cement comparable to World Standards. Green and Environment-Friendly Industry. Contributes significantly to CO 2 emission reduction and thereby taking care of issues concerning Global Warming. Per Capita Cement Consumption at 202 kg is very low against World Average of 513 kg. FROM MODERATE TO WORLD CLASS INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY Industry's Initiatives and Achievements acknowledged and appreciated world over - although, a lot still remains to be done with the help and support from Government 1
1982 – A 'Watershed' in the history of Indian Cement Industry when 'Partial Decontrol' was introduced culminated to Decontrol in 1989. Drastically compressed time for adding additional 100 Mt. cement capacity mark to 11 and 3 years respectively from 83 years taken for the First. 2 BURGEONING GROWTH INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY India Produces 7% of Global Cement Production. Of late, subdued cement demand has significantly lowered capacity utilization – A major cause of concern.
GREEN AND ENVIRONMENT-FRIENDLY INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY Adopts Latest Technologies to keep it globally competitive in respect of : Production Cost (However, high taxation and import of inputs negate it). Protection of Environment in and around cement plants. Strives significantly for maintaining our Ecological balance being disturbed through Global Warming. Takes notable initiatives and measures for Clean Development Mechanism through increased clinker substitution and Alternative Fuels use. 3 Still a Lot of Scope for Further Improvement
Proactive Cement Industry constantly improves Energy Consumption. Some plants have become global benchmarks in energy consumption, next to Japan. 4 TOWARDS TECHNOLOGY & ENERGY EFFICIENCY INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY 99% Energy Efficient Dry Process plants. Year 1950-60197019801990Post 2010 Kiln Capacity (Tonnes/Day) 300 - 600600 – 12002400 – 30003300 – 60004500 – 12000 Heat Consumption (Kwh/Tonne Clinker) 1300 - 1600900 – 1000800 – 900650 – 750 Power Consumption (Kwh/Tonne Cement) 115 - 130110 - 125105 - 11595 - 10670 - 90
Perform, Achieve and Trade (PAT) Scheme of BEE @ Alternate Fuel and Raw Material (AFR) Waste Heat Recovery (WHR) through Co- generation 5 NEW INITIATIVES FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY Energy consumption likely to be reduced further by 4.8% in first cycle of PAT Scheme, ending in 2015 @ Outlined under the National Action Plan on Climate Change released by Hon'ble Prime Minister of India in June 2008.
By adopting best available Technologies and Environmental practices in the plants viz. Waste Heat Recovery Power Projects and Uses of Alternate Fuels - Pet coke, Lignite, Husk, Municipal Wastes, Biomass, etc. CO 2 emission level reduced from 1.12 tonne of per tonne cement produced in 1996 to 0.719 tonne CO 2 emission for one tonne of cement in 2010. Is on the top in Certified Emission Reductions Projects registered with the Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) of Kyoto Protocol. Indian roadmap now outlines a low-carbon growth pathway for the Indian cement industry that could lead to carbon intensity reductions of 45 per cent by 2050. 6 APPRECIABLE REDUCTION IN CARBON FOOTPRINT INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY These reductions could come from increased clinker substitution and alternative fuel use; Improvements to energy efficiency, and the development and widespread implementation of newer technologies.
CONSCIOUS OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND SAFETY INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY Consumes around 27% of Fly Ash generated from Thermal Power Plants. Consumes almost 100% Slag generated by Steel Plants. Eco-friendly use of hazardous industrial wastes by focusing and producing Green Cement. 7
Promotes Environment-Friendly Cement Concrete Roads and White Topping in place of Bitumen Roads, in which significant emission of particulate matter, sulphur dioxide are emitted through Hot-Mix plants while preparing bitumen mixes at construction sites. TAKES MEASURES FOR ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION BEYOND ITS SURROUNDINGS INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY Cement Road Prolongs life of quarries and mines as Cement Roads consume less aggregates. Protects ambient temperature from increasing due to reduced absorption of heat. Bitumen Road 8 Utilizes fly ash upto 35%, disposal of which is a nuisance and health hazard. Conserves 10% electricity used for street light Conserves 14% Diesel and Petrol for Trucks plying on Cement Concrete Roads.
Developed green belts around cement plants through social forestry Quarried mines converted into water bodies, reservoirs, etc. 9 CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY (CSR) ACTIVITIES INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY Provide clean environment, health care and education facilities to workers and surrounding populace. Adopted more than 700 neighbourhood villages surrounding plants. – Basic education, Primary Healthcare, Water supply ensured. – 225 Primary and Secondary Schools established. 25 Colleges financed. Water Conservation
10 CLEAN ENVIRONMENT AND SOCIAL COMMITMENT INDIAN CEMENT INDUSTRY Greenery Around Cement Plant Thick rows of trees at a cement plant's perimeter Bulwark against GHG Rain water harvesting in Limestone Mining pits Mined out areas converted into lakes by cement plants. SIBERIAN Birds certify Our eco-friendliness
MAJOR CONCERNS Updation of Database a casualty Logistics, Despatches, etc. plans severely impacted after CCI's Order of 20 th June 2012 Dropping Capacity Utilisation (from 90% to 70% now) – Sluggish Demand Coal Conundrum Increasing Input Costs – Coal, Slag, Pet Coke, etc. High Taxes and Levies High interest rates making difficult for manufacturers to put up new capacities as well as construction industries to fund their new projects 11 TODAY FOCUSING ONLY ON COAL SCENARIO
Status of Indian Coal India is the third largest coal producer. It has fifth largest coal reserves Total reserves - 293 billion tonnes (as on 01.04.2012) - Including Proved reserves up to the depth of 1200 m - 118.14 billion tonnes (as per Geological survey of India) it is not able to meet domestic demand. India is likely to become the second largest importer of coal next to Japan. China USA India 12
Breakup of Coal Demand by the User Industries It is ironical, cement which is equally as important as power for growth of country's economy gets only 1.75% of its 5% requirement of coal production 13

Cement Sector - Third Largest Consumer of Coal /Fuel Coal is used as the main fuel in the industry. Coal is supplied to cement companies on the basis of Fuel Supply Agreement (FSA) between Coal Companies and Cement Companies, at a 35% higher price than the Regulated Sector (G6 to G17 – The grades preferred by Cement Industry) of power grade coal, consisting of Power, Fertilizer and Defence. Coal availability to the industry dropped to 35% in 2012 from 75% in 2003. 15

High Scenario 18
(Mn.t.) Source: Working Group Report for XII Plan COAL REQUIREMENT TO MEET CEMENT DEMAND PROJECTIONS * 17% Coal is consumed to produce one tonne of cement (Progressively reduced from 25% in 1990s because of efficiency improvement) 19
Coal - Key Issues Substantial new capacities have been waiting for sanction of Long-Term Linkages for more than six years. This needs to be expedited. CIL has switched over from Useful Heat Value (UHV) to Gross Calorific Value (GCV). Wide variations between declared GCV to actual GCV in cement plants causing huge financial losses to coal consumers. Facility of joint sampling at both loading and unloading points being extended to the power utilities may also be extended to the cement sector without embargo of 4 lakh tones subject to their consent. 20
Coal - Key Issues As per The New Coal Distribution Policy (NCDP) FSAs have been signed only for 75% of normative requirement, thus there is ab-initio 25% less programmed for each unit. Threshold for penalty for short supply being 60% only, actual supplies could come to around 45% of normative requirement. Substantial cement production capacities have been added during the last few years, but the FSAs are yet to be signed for these capacities. Matter is pending with Coal Cos and MOC. Contd... 21
Under E auction any entity (irrespective of actual user, trader etc) can participate. It is experienced that the traders are able to get substantial quantities of coal under E auction which is then sold to actual consumers. This unnecessarily increases cost of coal for actual consumers. Only actual consumers be allowed to participate under E-auction with some mechanism for monitoring which may include self declaration & stringent action on diversion of coal etc. Coal companies are deducting FSA quantity (deemed supply) based on fixed weight per wagon(66MTX59 Boxes) whereas actual loading is up to 5%to 7% lower. This results into loss of linkage quantity. Contd... Coal - Key Issues FSA quantity supplied is to be considered based on actual loading & shortfall be supplied at the end of the year by allotting rake or by road if quantity is less than a rake. 22
Joint inspection for re-verification of the calibration of the rail/road weighbridges be undertaken at a fixed interval with prior notification to the consumers. Weighbridges of C.I.L. or railway are not always kept in calibrated condition, erratic weights are part of the deal. Railways are charging freight on the basis of declared carrying capacity of wagons (which has been periodically increased in last few years), whereas actual quantity loaded is lesser than carrying capacity declared. Contd... Coal - Key Issues Railways to Charge freight for 66 M.T./Box - whereas Qty. possible to load – 63 M.T. Consumer has to pay idle freight of 3 M.T. 23
Steep Penalty on overloading of coal by Rail is charged from consumers despite their not having any role in the loading of coal which is done by coal companies & Railways. Penalties are worked out based on in motion weigh bridge of Railways which do not measure correct quantity of coal loaded in the wagons. During monsoon season, weight of coal get increased due to rains in transit with higher moisture over which cement plants have no control. Contd... Coal - Key Issues Need to eliminate this penalty. Joint inspection for re-verification of the calibration of the rail/road weighbridges be undertaken at a fixed interval with prior notification to the consumers. 24
Cement Sector is already paying 35% higher price for coal compared to the regulated coal price of the power grade coal falling between G6 to G17 grades. This compulsory imposition of 25% of higher grade of coal falling between G1 to G5 together with the coal produced from the 'Cost plus Mines' whose price is much higher than the notified price of coal as pre condition for signing of FSA should be dispensed with. Contd... Coal - Key Issues 25
Provides a link between the Industry and Govt. and also serves the cement industry and its consumers. Plays a pivotal role in formulation of Government policies for cement industry through continuous dialogues and interactions. Apprises industry of latest Technological Developments and Cutting Edge Technologies. Educates on rational use of cement including choice of the right type of Cements for various applications. Creates awareness on the industry's efforts on Quality Assurance, Environmental improvements, Consumer protection and other related issues. 26 ABOUT CEMENT MANUFACTURERS' ASSOCIATION (CMA)

New Rochelle, NY, a suburb about a half hour from Manhattan.
Favorite book of all time:
Peter Pan, by J.M. Barrie
Least favorite book of all time:
Johnny Tremaine
Book, Kindle, Nook, audiobook or other, and why?
Books, for pleasure, Kindle for business. I still enjoy the tactile sensation of holding a book. But when I need to read fast for work, I use the Kindle App on my iPad.
Describe the moment when you first got the idea for your new book:
I was watching a man eating alone in a pizza store. He seemed eccentric and very solitary, and I imagined he led a very quiet and lonely life, and wondered about the turns he had taken to get there.
Most helpful epiphany while writing the book:
Ultimately, you have to write what's coming at any given point in time. Fighting your instincts for practical reasons is a losing battle.
Dream casting for your protagonist in the movie version, and why:
Robert Downey, Jr. Because my protagonist is given to hyper-articulate fits of honesty, and really, who does hyper-articulate better than Robert Downey, Jr.?
Typical writing schedule:
I try to treat it like a real job. I'm at my desk before nine, and I go all day. I'm not necessarily productive all day, but really, who is?
Office, home, Starbucks, or elsewhere?
Home office.
How you got your first agent or book contract:
I sent out about fifty query letters. Got forty-eight rejections and two offers. I went with the agent who seemed as young and hungry as I was. He's still my agent.
Most embarrassing story or other piece of writing you wrote as a kid, and what it was about:
When I was sixteen I wrote the first hundred or so pages of a novel about a piano that was haunted by the ghost of an evil blues musician. It was basically an extremely misguided and blatant knock-off of Christine, which is one of my favorite Stephen King novels.
Your favorite character you've ever thought up, and why:
I'm really enjoying Silver, the protagonist from One Last Thing Before I Go. He's had a mini-stroke that causes him to speak his inner-monologues out loud without realizing it, and I love the way that throws everyone around him.
What book or other piece of media you've been consuming lately:
I'm reading Motherland, by Amy Sohn, which is great, and really loving Louie, on FX.
What book or other piece of media you've been feeling guilty for not consuming lately:
I've been feeling terrible about how few novels I've gotten to read in the last year. Between finishing my own, and writing for my television show, as well as doing some feature work, I've lost any time to simply read, and I'm missing out on some great novels.

Protecting Yourself From Negativity As An Empath
Empath Protection: There are times as an empath we need to shield from negativity. Also as an empath we don't actually know what to do when a potentially dangerous situation arises. We have listed below 5 steps for empaths to shield from negativity.
1. Realize that you're an empath
The first step of shielding oneself from negativity as an empath is recognizing that you are indeed one, you need to accept this. The recognition might sound rather obvious, but I can assure you that the majority of empaths get confused.
Psychologists say that an empath is in a position to figure out how to take advantage of their sensitivity and awareness, this is the reason how they can feel what others around them are feeling. Based on the state of their consciousness, each empath needs to understand that, this feeling is about them being part of the universe and all that is and their connection to it.
2. Stay truthful
Recent studies have shown that the moment people are dishonest to themselves or others; they create in-congruence in their minds. In such a situation, we find ourselves asking why we were dishonest. As psychologists say, being dishonest can cause a continued shift in our energy. When you'r straightforward with others, you are helping that individual. When somebody requests your legit assessment about something, ask them what they need from you, do they want advice or do they need you to just listen to them.
3. Have positive feelings
If you have ever been to an interview, you'll realize that one of the primary things that the interviewer may ask you is "What is your greatest weakness?" The right reaction to this is letting them know an apparent shortcoming, such as being someone who worries a lot, and you go ahead to clarify that you know this, you will see that the interviewer considers this to be a positive thing about you. It is recommended that if you feel hostile feelings of others around you, that you take it for what it is, and transform it into a positive and send that energy back into peaceful awareness and direct it toward the general population around you.
4. Take time and space for yourself
In many occasions, empaths seclude themselves from the crowd to avoid the emotional energy pollution'. It's essential to have a good group of friends you can trust, since it's one of our central needs as individuals. However, to shield ourselves from negativity, as an empath, we should separate ourselves from others when we feel we need to, this helps us realign our energy again.
5. Don't get involved in negative energy
To shield yourself from negativity, always try not to be taken in by energy vampires or try to control what is out of your control. It's great that you get to understand that people are different, that they can be helped by setting a good example, while there are other who can't be helped. Changing people is next to impossible.

I will be offering free instructions for how to run your own Idea Party (in person) over at www.barbarasclub.com starting next week.
I'm hoping you'll get on my mailing list at the same site, because I'm starting some very new things about Scanners (I'm discovering new Types and new themes, and I have a lot of questions I'd love to ask you -- and you know I love to answer questions so you'll be able to ask away with good results) and Resistance (Since I hit 80, I have a fire burning under me, and I want those Resistance workshops as much as you do!).
But you have to be on my mailing list so you'll know what I'm doing in time to be part of it. I can't help tossing up telephone workshops without much warning, and you'll want to be there when I'm fired up, so I hope you'll not only get on my mailing list, you'll open my newsletters as soon as they arrive in your inbox.

Lost And Delirious Review
Ah, the perils of going to an all-girls school, where lesbianism seems to run rampant. Alas, for poor Mouse (Mischa Barton, who absolutely embodies her character name here, the job of secret-keeper is heavy to bear. It's made all the worse when the roommates split up after Tory (Jessica Paré) decides she can't do the lesbian thing any more after her kid sister walks in on them -- and Paulie (a very young Piper Perabo, Coyote Ugly) will go to any lengths to get her back. Poor Mouse is caught in the middle, but rest assured, there's plenty of time for the girls to cry and talk about, you know, feelings and stuff, when Paulie isn't scheming to get back her gal. There's even a kindly gardener to lend a shoulder to cry on and some fatherly advice.

The life of a glamorous, private-school educated woman from a privileged family spiraled into a life of crime after becoming heavily addicted to the drug ice, a court has heard.
Amanda Arbib, 26, from Bellevue Hill, in Sydney's eastern suburbs, has pleaded guilty to fraudulently obtaining money by stealing credit cards and people's personal details in the mail – and keeping them in her Gucci handbag.
She is also facing breach of good behaviour bond matters for previous charges – which include admitting to police she was 'keeping a bag of the drug ice in her bra'.
Arbib's lawyer Ahmed Dib told the Downing Centre Local Court the woman suffered 'severe depression' after the death of her father, 'fell in with the wrong crowd' and became addicted to the deadly drug.
Mr Dib told the court on Wednesday it was 'one of the worst addictions' he had seen in his clients and that she had fell from 'such grace'.
He told the court she was in a detox rehabilitation program and it was 'imperative' she be allowed to finish it before she faces sentencing later in the year.
In an incident where she has been convicted of a series of charges, in late 2015 police found Arbib with a bag of other people's mail.

Managed WordPress is GoDaddy's professional WordPress hosting platform. Its feature list is incredible, as is its performance (so good, in fact, some of our developers literally didn't believe it — but we assure you, it's real).
Managed WordPress offers a streamlined and optimized WordPress experience; it's nothing but a hosting account with WordPress installed. For a lot of customers, that's exactly what they're looking for. When customers launch into their accounts, we place them directly in the WordPress admin panel, so there's no complication and nothing superfluous.
As Marcus couch suggested at back on November 27th in the year 2013, it has entered in the administered WordPress hosting service. Plans beginning at 6.29 dollars per month and has DDoS protection, automatic updates, firewalls and an easy one click relocation tool. It mentions that the service will contain intense speed and promised 99.9 percent uptime.
- Special Offer! GoDaddy Basic Managed WordPress Hosting for only $1.00 a month!
- Save 25% OFF your GoDaddy WordPress Hosting
More Of The Same
GoDaddy contains a list of limited plugins same to WP engine. It explains that through limiting the plugins listed, the hosting service keeps the administered accounts protective. It does not contain the best track history of being a secure webhost. In the year 2010, the industry faced lot of malware type hacks on the hosting service like other hosting company like network solutions.One of the doubts said by readers was that they would talk down to the competition with rock bottom costs. You can get a comparison between some of the different hosting companies availing the cheapest plan like the lowest usual denominator.
- GoDaddy – $6.99 / month
- Siteground – $9.95 / month
- Flywheel – $15.00 / month
- DreamPress – $19.95 / month
- Pagely – $24.00 / month
- Pressable – $25.00 / month
- Synthesis – $27.00 / month
- WP Engine – $29.00 / month
If cost were the deciding aspect for selecting a managed WordPress hosting service, godaddy would win. But it is essential to consider that every organization applies various restrictions and options to the plans. These differences are one of the causes for the variety of rates. According to the conversations I have had with lot of WordPress advisers who work with webhosting firms on everyday basis; it is not on the higher rank of the list like a suggestion to the customers.Based on donnacha, Godaddy arriving in to the market must assist push rates nearer to where they should to be.With that, I do not consider well known managed WordPress service providers have nothing to fear. It may contains the cheapest rates, but they will want to work tremendously tough to make back the reputation of the WordPress group.
Reduced rates won't be sufficient
Since the exits of bob parsons like CEO, the organization has modified its image from sexy girl and hunting elements to highly experts like a business. I think this hosting service provider has developed in lot of areas in the two years but they have lot of methods to go. The industry has sponsored plenty of wordcamps and has been supportive of the project. But it needs lot of time and devotion to alter the minds of so lot of hosting clients who have got a bad experience with the industry the previous three years. In finding to the day when I look people suggesting godaddy for hosting Vs the other method around.I would love to hear from consumers who are presently availing the latest godaddy administered WordPress hosting plan.
When you want to build own blog or website for your business, you have done a best choice by selecting to operate the site on WordPress. It is the famous and cheapest website platforms found in the market. You do not want to be a developer or designer to build your own website. But you do require hosting to operate WordPress and to create life easier, managed hosting service is the best way. The actual benefits are that you can be assured knowing that the host is taking care of WordPress placement for you. They fit core updates, monitor plugins for managing your security and compatibility.
This shows no more frustration on remembering to update the installation of WordPress. There is no breaking the website and no staying up at night time surprising whether the website is susceptible to a hack attack. Managed WordPress hosting service shows less energy and time spend annoying regarding the maintenance of the installation; hence you have lot of time work on the content.
When you buy a yearly hosting plan, you will get a free domain name. This assists create the setup easier. Since the domain name is from the company, you do not want to point it to the server, helps you to save time taking steps when building new sites. Next, time saver is built in caching. It is built in caching assists to speed up the site and you do not want to set up yourself.
Another best feature is in dashboard support. If you get in to an issue or think of an innovative remedy you can easily send godaddy a speed message. This tool bar has a link to the settings. This is best if you are thinking to make plenty of websites on various plans. It creates it easy to find SFTP and database details must you require it.
Whether you avail the fast setup choice or the conventional set up method, this hosting plan create the entire process easier for you. This creates it particularly effective for beginners who are simply starting out with hosting plan or professionals who might be making sites.
Why the GoDaddy WordPress Managed Hosting plan may be a great choice for a small-business WordPress site.
I reviewed the new GoDaddy WordPress Managed Hosting plan when one of my clients signed up for it, and it appears that GoDaddy uses many of the same techniques that WP Engine is using to optimize performance for WordPress websites.
WP Engine costs $30/month for a website, GoDaddy charges $6.29! So what's the difference, what are the Pros and Cons?
- GoDaddy includes email and will also register your domain. WP Engine ONLY hosts WordPress websites, they don't host email or domain registration which means you need to pay for other accounts somewhere else to handle those.
- Both GoDaddy and WP Engine have basic plans that include just a single website, and upgraded plans that allow more websites.
- WP Engine has a great feature, a one-button staging site that makes a copy of your website for you to experiment on. You can try out new themes, plugins, make CSS changes and if you like what you see, another single button click will replace your current production site with the staging site. GoDaddy does NOT have this feature. If you want to make a staging site you have to manually export your site and move it somewhere else to experiment on, and when you are satisfied with the changes you either have to replicate those on the production site or manually replace the production site with a copy of the staging site.
- Both GoDaddy and WP Engine include enhanced website security and automatic backups for your site so you don't need to configure additional plugins for that.
- Both GoDaddy and WP Engine will automatically update your WordPress files when updates come out and check to make sure the update doesn't break your site.
Why I'm going to start recommending the GoDaddy WordPress Managed Hosting plan
If first impressions count for your website, it does make a difference if your page loads in 1 second instead of 4 to 7 seconds. That was why several years ago I chose to move my website to WP Engine. Now it looks like you can get that same performance at 1/4th the cost.
Most of my clients are entrepreneurs, small-business owners, and small non-profit organizations that don't have a IT department to help keep their website up-to-date and backed-up in case something happens. With managed hosting most of that is included in the plan. There are just fewer things to worry about and the list of site maintenance chores is much shorter.

2008 Barolo Gavarini Chiniera Elio Grasso
This Product is currently unavailable. Please check back later or contact us directly and we will endeavour to source it for you.
Average critic rating : 97.0 points
97The 2008 Barolo Gavarini Vigna Chiniera is flat out great. Sweet roses, spices, mint, flowers and red berries are some of the notes that emerge from this profound, utterly moving Barolo. The 2008 possesses dazzling inner perfume, endless layers of bright red fruit and stunning overall balance. Fine, silky tannins frame the extraordinarily, elegant finish. This is a fabulous wine from Gianluca Grasso and his family. Chalky notes frame an energetic, brilliant finish imbued with shades of the 1989. (Apr 2012) www.vinous.com Drink 2018-2033 |
Elio Grasso is a Barolo producer based in the Monteforte d'Alba village in Piemonte. The estate has a productive vineyard holding of 18 hectares where they grow Nebbiolo, Barbera, Dolcetto and Chardonnnay. Their top wines include: Barolo Riserva Runcot, Barolo Gavarini Chiniera and Barolo Ginestra Casa Mate, all of which are widely acknowledged as some of the best available today. The family owned estate regard their vineyards as their greatest assets and maintain the traditions of their predecessors in their farming and cellar techniques. The estate is currently run by Gianluca Grasso, son of Elio, who remains faithful to the estate's 30 year -long commitment to vinify all of their grapes separately, according to their vineyard provenance. Fermentations and maturations are carried out unhurriedly, giving due care and attention to each parcel before the wines are aged extensively in their cellar. The resulting wines are pure, terroir-driven expressions of their variety, often with a distinct aromas and flavours. The Baroli are complex and structured with serious ageing potential. Wine critics agree, as all three are consistent recipients of 94+ scores from the Antonio Galloni, Robert Parker and James Suckling.
