Sovana & Pitigliano
From Saturnia it's a short drive to Sovana, a small village with just a single street, beautifully paved in herringbone brickwork. There's a ruined castle at one end and a cathedral at the other, and a piazza in the middle … Read more
Roselle & Saturnia
Heading south on the road from Siena to Grosseto last year, Sue snapped this photograph from our car as we sat in traffic, waiting to join the cypress avenue queuing in line above us on the horizon. The trees were … Read more
Walking Back To Montefollonico
We'd just walked to Montepulciano in the blistering midday sun, feeling a bit like 'mad dogs & Englishmen' as we climbed the last few kilometres, quivering from heat exhaustion, thirsty and hungry and pretty sure we'd be returning to Montefollonico … Read more
We visited Montepulciano a few times last summer. The first visit was brief, having walked there and knowing we had to walk back, we stayed just for lunch and a quick look around. Through the gate, we followed the Corso … Read more
San Galgano
A couple of days later we discovered another ancient abbey, a counterbalance to the beauty and elegance of Sant'Antimo, the Abbazia di San Galgano stands open to the sky, with all the breathtaking grandeur of a canyon carved out of … Read more
Bagno Vignoni
After visiting San Quirico d'Orcia and Montalcino we headed south looking for Bagno Vignoni, a spa since Roman times, but we got distracted along the way by the Abbazia di Sant'Antimo, a beautiful Benedictine monastery set in a lovely landscape … Read more
San Quirico d'Orcia
We floated westwards, down the highroad from Pienza to San Quirico, overlooking the Val d'Orcia, stopping whenever we could to take in the view and to breathe in the endless sky.
In Arezzo
On the first Sunday of each month the streets of Arezzo are lined with stalls filled with antiques and bric-a-brac for the Fiera Antiquaria, one of the best known antiques markets in Italy.
Pieve Di Corsignano
One evening we came down the hill from Pienza to see the original parish church, which dates from the time when the town was still known as Corsignano. Luckily we found the caretaker sweeping up rose petals after a wedding … Read more
In Pienza
Pienza was the creation of Pope Pius II. He was born here in 1405 when it was known as Corsignano, and in 1458 he commissioned the architect Bernardo Rossellino to replace it with a Utopian new town, intended to be … Read more

I had an idea for a project that blended form and function... a stand for my Mac Pro. I wanted to design something that lifted the circular computer up off the desktop to increase airflow (vents bringing air into the machine are near the base, and the fan blows warm air out through the top), but I wanted to do it in an artful manner.
After tossing a few ideas around and making a few sketches, I worked a design up in Cinema 4D.
Many, many hours later... it finally finished. After getting rid of the scaffolding/brim and cleaning it up a bit with a dremel tool, it doesn't look too bad.
Both the design, and the print are far from perfect - but I consider it a successful proof of concept. I've already made a number of tweaks to the design, and am planning a higher quality print in the future.
Mac Pro Octopus Stand
The place to show off your epic printing projects. (Pictures or it didn't happen!)

Brief SummaryRead full entry
BiologyThe albacore tuna forms schools, which can be up to an astonishing 30 kilometres wide (3). These enormous schools are sometimes associated with floating objects, such as sargassum weeds, and they may also form mixed schools with other tuna species, such as skipjack, yellowfin and bluefin tuna (2). In these schools, the albacore tuna undertakes great migrations in search of the best feeding and spawning grounds, strongly influenced by large oceanic phenomena such as El Niño (5) (6). Albacore tuna are able to reach impressive speeds, of up to 80 kilometres per hour, due to their highly evolved circulatory system that reduces the loss of heat generated by increased muscular activity. This allows them to maintain their body temperature at a higher level than the surrounding water, keeping their muscles warm and working efficiently (3). Unlike many fish, albacore tuna are not able to pump water over their gills to obtain oxygen from the surrounding water, and therefore need to swim constantly with their mouth open, to force water over their gills. A high volume and pressure of blood, and great haemoglobin concentration, all increases the ability of the fish to absorb the essential oxygen (3). Albacore tuna are believed to be pelagic spawners, meaning that the female releases her eggs, and the male his sperm, into open water, often near the water's surface (3). A female albacore tuna is capable of producing two to three million eggs per spawning season, which are released in at least two batches (2); however, the majority of these eggs will not survive to be adults (3). The tiny eggs are just one millimetre in diameter and are enclosed in an oil droplet to enable them to remain buoyant in the ocean. The eggs are fertilized by the male, and the resulting fertilized eggs develop rapidly, with hatching occurring in less than 48 hours (3). The large albacore tuna is one of the top carnivores within the ocean regions it inhabits, and it preys voraciously upon smaller schooling fish such as sardines and anchovy, and squid, consuming around 25 percent of its weight every day. The albacore tuna itself becomes prey for larger species of tuna, billfish and sharks (3).

Former Chicago Bear Brad Culpepper and his "Survivor" alum wife, Monica, are two of 20 contestants battling for the $1 million prize when "Survivor" returns Sept. 18 on CBS.
Culpepper, 44, an attorney who retired from pro football after playing 12 games for the Bears in 2000, will compete with and eventually against 42-year-old Monica, who competed on "Survivor: One World" when it aired last year.
For its 27th season, sub-titled "Blood vs. Water," "Survivor" is putting former contestants together with their loved ones. But only one person can be crowned Sole Survivor, so they'll have to outwit even their partners.
"Blood vs. Water" will take place on Redemption Island, according to CBS. As the network says, the twist this season is that loved ones will be forced to choose whether to "save" their partner on Redemption Island and switch places with them, thus allowing their loved one to immediately re-enter the game, or leave them in exile to survive on their own.
The 90-minute season premiere airs at 7 p.m. CT Sept. 18 on CBS.

My sisters visit was a whirlwind. We had a fabulous time, and I really wish that my sisters lived closer. How perfect that would be. We didn't do much knitting but did manage a craft with the girls.
Back in October, I needed a peace shirt for a party. Decided to investigate that freezer paper craft that I had seen on so many blogs. Have you all done it? Seen it?
My niece, Kelli, made the ice cream cone. Libby made the snail.
I made the tree.
And using the inspiration from the above peace sign t-shirt, Lisa made two peace shirts. Except the girls told us that my peace sign was wrong. That this was what the peace sign looked like. Huh? Isn't that a mercedes sign? Not what she had in mind. She will be repairing those!
37 comments
both the girls and myself love doing these! libby's snail is darling!ReplyDelete
They're so cute! So you mean I can stop freezing my tshirts now? Hooray! ;)ReplyDelete
I love the paint marbling effect on the peace sign - very cool.
How fun, that snail is a killer!ReplyDelete
using the freezer would make for one chilly tee! great craft idea-love the snail.ReplyDelete
such a fun craft...with everyone involved...I like that!ReplyDelete
I smiled tonight when on my way to work, what did I pass? A Mercedes dealership! (I read your post before I left the house.)ReplyDelete
Cute! Cute! Cute! I've got to try these when my niece comes to visit this summer.
every one of those is beyond adorable.ReplyDelete
definitely a summer craft to earmark.
thanks again leslie.
Awww, these are so cool, I am off to read more about how to do this! Thanks Leslie for sharing!ReplyDelete
Those tees are perfect! Love the snail and the tree.ReplyDelete
Interesting. I am hunting for some sheets to try the lounge pants. Wish me luck, not with the finding, the sewing bit.ReplyDelete
I've been interested in this for a while, but have been too lazy to get around to it (despite buying the freezer paper). Maybe when I get the table surface all cleaned, I'll get the drive to do this. They look great!ReplyDelete
- Anonymous6/01/2008
I also use that method and love it. I have doing t-shirts for birthday with the age/number on them in fun fabric. They seem to be a great hit that when I forgot to make on for my nephew my Sil said hey does he still get one. That's now on the top of my list better late than never.ReplyDelete

The City of Waynesville and four current or former city employees are being sued for allegedly covering up the circumstances surrounding a death in 2010.
The City of Waynesville and four current or former city employees are being sued for allegedly covering up the circumstances surrounding a death in 2010.
Kelsey West, of St. James, filed a civil suit on Thursday against former Waynesville police officer Gary Brankel, Police Chief Robert Carter, Assistant Police Chief Clarence Liberty, dog catcher Brandon Robertson, and the City of Waynesville, accusing the city officials of covering up circumstances surrounding her mother Rhonda West's death, which took place on Jan. 31, 2010, in Waynesville off Highway 17.
The lawsuit states that Brankel was operating a Waynesville police vehicle when he hit Rhonda West and killed her. Brankel continued to work for the City of Waynesville until December 2011 and "concealed and covered up" Rhonda West's death during that time, according to the petition filed in circuit court.
The court documents further state that Carter, Liberty and Robertson were "vested with policy making authority" over how the City of Waynesville investigated the case and they allegedly "concealed and covered up [defendant] Brankel's involvement" with Rhonda West's death.
The lawsuit states that Kelsey West is the only proper person to file the suit and was denied access to records on this case until this year: "As evidenced by police records and recordings made available to Plaintiff West more than three years after the death of Decedent West (records) that were affirmatively hidden from and denied to Plaintiff West and her family prior to February 2013 by [defendants] Brankel, Carter, Liberty, Robertson and Waynesville," the lawsuit states.
According to the lawsuit, Brankel was driving to a burglary at 20885 Lacombe Road, with his lights on and Robertson proceeded a few minutes after him. He reported seeing Rhonda West "walking down the middle of the road" in the vicinity of Rice's Laundry and Cleaners and asked another agency to check on Rhonda West.
Minutes later, according to the suit, Robertson passed Rice's and reported seeing no one in the area.
A few minutes following, two eye witnesses called 911 and reported seeing a body in the vicinity of Rice's, the lawsuit states. The witnesses reported in the document that they saw no other vehicles in the area besides the two police cars driven by Brankel and Robertson.
The lawsuit also states that "the time it took defendant Brankel to arrive at the scene of the burglary is inconsistent with his having gone directly to the Lacombe burglary and is consistent with his having made contact with Decedent West in the vicinity of Rice's Cleaners prior to arriving at the burglary."
The lawsuit states that Carter and Liberty named Brankel and Robertson in charge of the death investigation, despite knowing the two were the most logical suspects in the case.
Brankel was also made the primary point of contact for the media of Rhonda West's death investigation.

Financials: Sept. Bonds are currently 10 lower at 138'19. This market has broken sharply since early Friday morning after the monthly Employment Report, which had the bonds as high as 141'11 up slightly reacting to a small uptick in the unemployment rate. Needless to say I am currently suffering mounting losses as the market anticipates a paring down of the monthly bond purchases by the Fed. The question be when not if. I remain skeptical and feel this will occur later, not sooner. That being said I am coming close to my point of tolerance on this trade and am thinking about an exit strategy in the next few days. That being said, I am a buyer on breaks below the 138'10 level for short term trades with protective sell stops just below the overnight low of 137'25.
Grains: July Corn is currently 2'0 higher at 652'0, July Beans 9'0 higher at 1520'6 and July Wheat fractionally lower at 689'2. On last Friday the July Corn approached my sell level of the 675'0 area (the high was 674'0). If you went short in this area, I recommend taking profits and standing aside until after tomorrow mornings (11:00am) Grain Reports.
Cattle: Aug. LC are currently 15 higher at 118.57 and Aug. FC 12 higher at 143.55. For those of you keeping track, there were 0 deliveries on first notice day (yesterday afternoon) given the current discount to the cash market with the oldest open date of Aug. 3rd 2012. This (the oldest date) will change quickly. I remain on the sidelines but note the market is near support of contract lows.
Silver: July Silver is currently $0.38 lower at $21.52 and Aug. Gold $17 lower at $1,369.00. As noted last week if gold fails to hold the $1,385.00 level it will probably be headed lower maintaining its long term downtrend. Currently support is the $1,358 level and resistance just above $1,403.
S&Ps: June S&Ps are currently 15.00 lower at 1627.00. I remain negative and continue to be a seller on rallies. Currently support is the 1623 level and resistance 1643.
Currencies: As of this writing the June Euro is currently 10 lower at 1.3252, the Swiss 42 higher at 1.0763, the Yen 186 higher at 1.0317 and the Pound 26 lower at 1.5558. the Dollar Index is 14 lower at 81.51. I feel volatility is too high to position these markets at this time. For short term trades I will be a buyer on breaks with a small risk tolerance.

Welcome to Arizona, where outside it feels like God left the oven door open. It is pretty amazing to me that Eagles training camp starts today, yet the talk of the town is the Phillies. And it is even more amazing to me that, despite the fact that the Phillies have won 16 of 19 games, the town could revolt at the end of the week if Roy Halladay is not introduced as a member of the club.
Regardless, the stage is set for one of the most interesting weeks in Phillies history.
Even more fun to watch than the Phillies right now is the game of 1-on-1 taking place between J.P. Ricciardi and Ruben Amaro Jr. Make no mistake - this is Amaro's first big test as a general manager. As hot as the Phillies are, they know they are taking a big leap of faith if they go into the postseason with Cole Hamels and Joe Blanton as their top two starters. And they know that if they land Roy Halladay, they will likely be the odds-on favorites to represent the National League in the World Series in each of the next two seasons.
Now, there is a whole lot of conjecture masquerading as fact when it comes to the Phillies situation. So I thought that I'd start the week off by breaking down what we know thus far, and what we need to keep our eyes on over the next six days:
1) We know that the Blue Jays are playing it smart by acting as if they have all the leverage in the world. On paper, Toronto does have all the leverage. Not only do they have several different partners from which to choose, they have the freedom to sit out this dance if they so choose. After all, Halladay is the team's most popular player, provides a noticable draw at the gate, is signed through next season, and surely can be moved in the offseason. Toronto is trying to say, "Look, we really don't want to move Halladay. But if you give us a reason to move him, we will." Hence, an asking price that starts with J.A. Happ and Kyle Drabek.
2) We don't know if the Blue Jays actually have that leverage. From the time Ricciardi "let it slip" to Ken Rosenthal that Halladay was available, he has acted and sounded much like a man who is under orders to shed salary and shed it now. For the first couple days of Halladay's availability, Ricciardi spoke with every media outlet short of the Weekly Reader, insisting to each one that the Blue Jays would only listen, yet in doing so sounding like a man who needs to make a deal. We won't actually know what the case is until Halladay is traded or July 31st comes and goes without a deal. The Phillies are obviously hoping that Ricciardi is bluffing when he calls the chances of his ace being dealt "very slim." If keeping Halladay is a legitimate option, then the Blue Jays could very well hold out for a package of Happ, Drabek and top position prospect Dominic Brown.
3) We know Halladay will have value in the offseason. Obviously, an extra half a season increases his value for a team looking to trade for him. But he'll still command a haul if he is dealt after this season rather than during it.
4) We don't know how much that value will decrease. Keep in mind that the Blue Jays might have more bidders for Halladay in the offseason, when teams have more pay-roll flexibility and more freedom to allocate that flexibility. Let's say the Yankees or Red Sox don't win the World Series this season. Don't you think that would convince them to jump in the pool? The Rangers also have some contracts coming off the books, and payroll flexibility is said to be a big reason why they might not make a serious play for him at this point. So while Halladay's value might drop in the Blue Book after this season, the demand for him could very well counteract that depreciation. At the same time, the availability of other aces could increase the supply. Brandon Webb, Cliff Lee and Javier Vazquez are three starters whose contracts expire after the 2010 season.
5) We know Ricciardi is on the hot seat. Contracts for Vernon Wells, Alex Rios and B.J. Ryan are looking ill-advised at this point. A regime change is a very strong possibility.
6) We don't know how that is affecting the Halladay negotiations. There is a very good chance that Ricciardi was told by his bosses to see what he can get for Halladay. And there is a good chance that Ricciardi views a Halladay trade as the only thing that can save his job. But there is a good chance the only way it can save his job is if it is an absolute no-brainer for the Blue Jays. A no-brainer along the lines of Happ, Drabek and Brown. And there is a good chance that unless Ricciardi lands a no-brainer, his bosses will decide to keep Halladay for the rest of the season, bring in a GM to oversee the rebuilding effort, and allow him to play the market in the offseason.
7) We know the Phillies are considering other options. They scouted Cliff Lee last night, and have kept eyes on Seattle lefty Jarrod Washburn. Righthander Jon Garland, whom the team will face tonight, could be available.
8) We don't know how much pressure Amaro feels to add another starter. Keep in mind that Halladay was not even an option a month ago. And while every body is punch drunk right now on the prospect of adding Halladay, the Phillies were still a strong World Series contender before they had the chance to add him. There is a chance that Amaro decides that the team's best strategy is to fortify the bullpen with an arm or two. That would leave Pedro Martinez and Jamie Moyer a chance to establish himself as the team's fourth-best starter. And the Phillies would then count on Hamels finding his groove for the season's final two months, and Happ and Blanton to continue pitching the way they have for the past two months.
9) We know the Phillies think Kyle Drabek could be in the rotation as soon as next season. This is the biggest reason why the club does not want to trade him. A rotation of Halladay, Hamels, Blanton, Drabek and Moyer is something the Phillies envision as a possibility for next season.
10) We don't know if the Phillies think Drabek could be in the rotation or bullpen by the end of August. Obviously, it isn't a best-case scenario. But if the organization feels that standing pat and calling on Drabek in a month is an option, much like the Red Sox did with Jonathan Papelbon in 2005 and the Yankees did with Joba Chamberlain in 2007, it would contribute to the hesitancy they have to trade him as well as alleviate some of the pressure to add another starter.

A little while back, we had the gang together for an afternoon of poker. Zach and Kyle put together some blind flights for us and we enjoyed the usual good food and great company (but lousy cards, if you ask me…).
Flight 1:
N.V. Jacques Picard Champagne Brut. This wine features a rather prickly nose, with lots of struck match, smoke, flint and quinine aromas matched to tart green apple and lemon citrus bits. In the mouth, it stays tart and a bit sour-fruited at times, but I like the fun grapefruit, lemon and graphite flavors that are light and airy but with solid punch and nerve. I find myself enjoying drinking it when all is said and done, though I never really came around to liking the nose all that much.
N.V. Diebolt-Vallois Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs. The nose here is subtle but generally classy and well-bred, featuring soft aromas of ginger, baked apple, copper and caramel. In the mouth, it's full-flavored but also fresh and taut, with very nice ginger, baked apple, lemon and other citrus flavors that are nice and juicy. It finishes dry and with good length. This is nice.
Flight 2:
2009 Louis Jadot Moulin-à-Vent Clos de Rochegrès Château des Jacques. This is noticeably pink-colored around the rim and smells of suede leather, cedar shingle, autumn leaf pile, toasted stem and fireplace ash riding atop a core of sweet blueberry and boysenberry types of fruit aromas. In the mouth, it's pretty darned youthful and tannic to my tastes, with some woody elements right up front. Otherwise, it's quite fruity and moderately sweet with blueberry and rhubarb pie flavors that I find a bit obvious and in need of more time to find greater nuance and focus.
2009 Jean-Marc Burgaud Morgon Côte du Py Vieilles Vignes. This wine has an appealing nose of fine cedar closet, smoked cherries, red currants and dark raspberries that are fairly big but nicely layered and welcoming. In the mouth, I find this to be another rather youthful wine, but not showing as much oak or tannicn as the previous wine at this stage. There's plenty of forward berry fruit, with good acidity and twang on a mid-weight frame that still manages to be full-flavored. It's a nice wine with good further upside potential, in my opinion.
Flight 3:
1998 Domaine J. Chamonard Morgon Le Clos de Lys. Here one finds more sublte and airy aromatic tones of sassafras, birch, suede, baked clay and milky dried berries to go with a lot of spice notes. In the mouth, it features a lot of spice and autumn leaf sensations to go along with faded blue and purple fruit. It's light-bodied, mild and easy-sipping, but with good zest and tangy acidity. It's pleasantly old world in style but probably needs to be drunk up fairly soon.
2010 Deebo Cuvee Barrel Sample. This was a bit of a ringer. It's a North Fork of Long Island wine made by one of our players—once thought to be lost to Hurricane Sandy but nursed back to health in a Rebirth from the Sea. It features a big-framed bouquet of black cherries, black raspberries, mixed currants, charred leather and a slice of nuttiness that sets it apart a bit from the norm. In the mouth, it's loaded with brazil nut, almond paste, carob and mocha flavors that aren't everybody's cup of tea, but I like the unique character of the wine and the impressive balance it maintains through to the even-keeled finish that features more of a chocolate-covered cherry type of profile. I'll be curious to see what this becomes once it is bottled.
Flight 4:
2005 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley. This turned out to be the first in a series of 3 flights pairing the Caymus Cabernet from Napa Valley against the Don Melchor Cabernet from Chile. Of the three vintages of Caymus we tasted, this was the best—with each successive vintage getting less and less appealing. With regard to the wine at hand, I find it to possess a powerful nose loaded with sweet blueberry and mixed currant fruit aromas supported by more subtle bits of leather, aloe and white pepper. In the mouth, it's very creamy and smoothly polished, with seamless, warm and giving sweet fruit and chocolate-mocha flavors to go with a pop of spicy toasted barrel accents. It's modern-styled and highly-buffed, but I find it to be pure, effortless and easy to gulp in a lot of ways, too. Again, this was my favorite of the three vintages, though that's not saying much.
2005 Concha y Toro Cabernet Sauvignon Don Melchor Puente Alto Chile. The Don Melchor wines are consistently darker and a bit more serious in tone than the Caymus offerings. This one offers up aromas of limestone, black cherry, black raspberry and campfire smoke leading into a palate that's a bit high in alcohol but loaded to the top with cranberry, red currant and rhubarb fruit supported by fudgy tannins. It's big and ripe and offers pretty decent drinking other than the slightly off-putting alcohol content.
Flight 5:
2006 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley. The nose here harkens right back to the 2005, loaded with purple and blue fruit that's sweet and forward and kissed by soft oak. In the mouth, it ratchets things up even more than the 2005, with super-sweet, very forward fruit in a bit of a candied package. It's the essence of liquid cherry and black raspberry fruit and in general is bigger and more obvious than the 2005, both with the fruit and the wood. Still, it's sleek and devoid of tannin and slips right down the palate, leaving behind a chocolaty after-taste. It's maybe just short of garish, but I know a lot of folks there would disagree on that count—thinking it definitely over the top.
2006 Concha y Toro Cabernet Sauvignon Don Melchor Puente Alto Chile. This is much darker, almost broodingly so on the nose—showing some taut and tight aromas of blackberry and black currant fruit and dark earth tones. In the mouth, I actually thought this was a more traditionally-styled California Cabernet. It's smooth, a bit warm from elevated alcohol, but loaded with classic black currant fruit and fine earth notes. The tannins are finely-managed and the texture is smooth but wiry. I think this was probably my favorite of the Don Melchors.
Flight 6:
2007 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley. The nose here features a lot of camphor, sweet creosote and charcoal aromas riding atop a core of overt blackberry and blueberry fruit compote. In the mouth, it tastes like pure grape juice to me. It's insanely sweet and totally off the charts with glycerin levels—making it seem almost sickly-sweet. It feels like there's a lot of residual sugar in here and it's made up of massively ripe fruit all around. I guess it's a logical progression from the 2005 to the 2006 to this, but for me this has gone over the tipping point into cocktail wine in a big way. Brutal.
2007 Concha y Toro Cabernet Sauvignon Don Melchor Puente Alto Chile. In stark contrast, this is dark and primordial on the nose, with scorched earth, toasted herb, grilled green pepper and black currant aromas lurking in the depths of the glass. In the mouth, it's nice and juicy, full of red and black berry fruit, gentle tannins and solid structure. Slightly fudgy but pleasant fruit is supported by solid acidity that leaves a fresh feeling on the finish. It's a young wine, but pretty tasty at this point.
Flight 7: After hours and non-blind
2002 Bouchard Père et Fils Beaune 1er Cru Beaune du Château. I think most of us were happy to move on from the previous set of wines, and I definitely liked this one. It has a pretty bouquet of soft cherry and other milky red fruits, fine spices and a little bit of fireplace smoke. In the mouth, it's a bit aggressive with the acidity up front, but it's also nicely earthy and mellow in flavor—with leather, dried berry fruit and cool soil elements coming across as cool, well-delineated and finely-structured. It has a nice fresh finish and is just enjoyable all around.
2002 Domaine Joseph Voillot Volnay. I didn't care for this nearly as much, beginning with the nose that I find to be a bit vegetal, with notes of pine sap, tomato paste and cooked down cherries that don't do much for me. In the mouth, it's got candied cherry and candied raspberry flavors for sure, but it's a bit strident and tough, I'd have to say. Give it some time to smooth out on the palate, though I'm not sure I'll ever like the aromatic profile.
Flight 8: More after hours and non-blind
1989 Château Chasse-Spleen Moulis en Medoc. As a pop and pour, this actually showed pretty darned well, I thought. The tight nose is peaty and smoky, with aromas of volcanic rock, tobacco leaf, menthol and dark earth showing classic make-up and good promise. In the mouth, it is even more classically old-fashioned, with mid-weight but dark and serious fruit stuffing showing a bit sticky at times. It features excellent structure, softening tannins and lots of nice black fruit and tobacco aspects. It's in no danger of fading, but it feels like it would show even better with a few hours of decanting right now.
1996 Viader Proprietary Red Napa Valley. …and then seemingly all of a sudden there was this magnum of '96 Viader making the rounds. Man, this is a nice wine and a great way to end the day! It's absolutely lovely on the nose, with a sleek but classy bouquet of creamed cherries, cassis, clean earth, fine cigar wrapper and slight hints of menthol that just work beautifully together. On the palate, it is all class. It's smooth, silky and pure, with an effortless ease about it and no hard edges but plenty of interesting leafy qualities and solid structure to go with the gorgeous black currant and black cherry fruit and fine-lifted acidity. I thought this was just great and a fantastic treat from Zach.

A tiny tip on Illustrator anti-aliasing
A reader today wrote, "Can anyone tell me if it's possible to drag a one-pixel-width diagonal line in Illustrator without it forcing anti-aliasing?"
My suggestion: Try choosing Effect->Rasterize, then choosing 72PPI and no anti-aliasing. If you often need this technique, you can create a graphical style & then easily apply the look to multiple paths. You can also get some funky lo-fi pixel-art looks by cranking the PPI setting way down.
Fortunately it's largely unnecessary to think about this stuff now that Illustrator CS5 has excellent pixel chops (at last).
Nooooo! It's not largely unnecessary! :)
It should be availbale as an option under the "D" for default appearance ;)

Manchester woman injured in motorcycle crash dies
July 17. 2014 10:42PM
MANCHESTER — Police said the city woman injured Saturday in a motorcycle/car crash has died in a Boston hospital.
Debra Smith, 51, was a passenger on a motorcycle driven by Richard Frink, 58, of Manchester, who died of his injuries Saturday.
Frink was eastbound on Goffstown Road when his motorcycle collided with a 1995 Ford Contour in the intersection with Montgomery Street. The car's driver, Mary Johnson, 58, and her passenger, Robert Uhmel, 50, both of Manchester, were not injured.
Smith was initially taken to the Catholic Medical Center and later flown to a Boston hospital, where she died Wednesday.
The cause of the crash is still under investigation by the Manchester Police Traffic Unit. Anyone with information regarding the crash is asked to contact the Manchester Police Department at 668-8711.

Title: Paul Roscoe collection of astronaut photographs, circa 1960s
Primary Creator: Roscoe, Paul
Extent: 0.2 Cubic feet
Date Acquired: 02/13/2012
Subjects: Astronauts, Flight Archives at Purdue University, Project Apollo (U.S.), United States. National Aeronautics and Space Administration
Forms of Material: Color photographs
Languages: English
The Paul Roscoe collection of astronaut photographs (circa 1960s; 0.2 cubic feet) documents members of the NASA astronaut corps, NASA administration, and the Saturn missile. It includes both headshots and group photographs of various NASA personnel from the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo programs. The headshots are solely of astronauts, some in their spacesuits. One notable photograph shows the Saturn missile, which was used during the Apollo missions to the moon, sitting at the launch pad. Types of materials include: color photographs. The photographs are organized into a single folder with original order maintained.
History of Mercury Seven Astronauts:
The Mercury Seven Astronauts were the first Americans in space. They participated in the Mercury program, announced in 1958, which had three objectives: "to place a human spacecraft into orbital flight around Earth, observe human performance in such conditions, and recover the human and the spacecraft safely" (Garber). These first astronauts went through a rigorous selection process from a pool of 508 test pilot candidates. In the end, NASA chose seven pilots for the program: Scott Carpenter, L. Gordon Cooper, Jr., John H. Glenn, Jr., Virgil I. "Gus" Grissom, Walter M. Schirra, Jr., Alan B. Shepard, Jr., and Donald K. "Deke" Slayton. In total, the Mercury Seven completed six human spaceflights from 1961-1963. Slayton, however, was grounded on account of a "previously undiscovered heart condition" (Garber). Their missions were instrumental for later human spaceflight programs like Gemini and the famous Apollo missions to the moon (Garber).

Ford's C-Max goes for laughs to dethrone Prius in 'Hybrid Games'
When Ford Motor Co. and its Team Detroit ad agency were creating a campaign for the new C-Max Hybrid, they had one clear target in their sights: the undisputed champion of the hybrid world, the Toyota Prius.
But Ford marketers didn't think the kind of serious, mano a mano comparison ads you might see for, let's say, pickups would be appropriate for hybrids, whose buyers tend to be just a little on the mellower side. So Ford decided to go for the funnybone instead of the jugular.
For the campaign, which started this morning on CNN, Ford revived a 1970s Italian animated children's series called "La Linea." In Italian, La Linea translates as "the line." The ads feature white-line silhouettes of the C-Max and Prius drawn on a blue background along with the La Linea character, who is nameless and doesn't speak.
The whimsical TV ads show the C-Max silhouette whizzing past the Prius V while a voice says: "C-Max has lots more horsepower than the Prius V, a hybrid that C-Max also bests in mpg."
The marketing campaign moves into late-night comedy territory in three online videos called "The Hybrid Games" that feature the C-Max vs. the Prius in a series of sporting contests, including "the Semi Pass," "the Freeway On-Ramp," and "the MPG Challenge."
To see the action, click here.
Calling the action in these contests are two very nerdy faux sports announcers named Bob and Roger. Roger is a mellow, California-kind of dude who slouches a little in his chair and says he's OK to "chill" when he gets stuck behind a semi truck on the road, while Bob is different. "I get angry," Bob says.
The camera shifts to a desert road where an 18-wheeler is rumbling along, carrying a load of portable toilets, of all things. The Prius comes up and slowly passes. Roger says, "I really like how chill the Prius is. What's your rush, dude?" while the Prius' horsepower (134) and torque (105 ft.-lbs.) are shown at the bottom.
After the pokey Prius finally finishes passing the semi, it's the C-Max's turn. The C-Max cruises up and effortlessly passes both the semi and the Prius while its horsepower (188) and torque (129) are displayed.
"Look at that confidence — it even passes the Prius," Bob shouts in his best game voice.
But mellow Roger says woozily: "Remember, there are no losers here."
"OK," Bob retorts, "this isn't tee-ball."
Toby Barlow, chief creative officer for the Team Detroit agency, said hybrids are essentially "forward-thinking and optimistic." That's why Ford chose to use a little humor.
"It's nice to be light-hearted and fun," he said. But Barlow knows the ads, however funny, have a serious purpose. They must get the C-Max, "a name that has zero awareness," on shoppers' lists as an alternative to the Prius, which is to hybrids as Kleenex is to tissues.
Says Matt Van Dyke, Ford director of U.S. marketing communications: "This is a major launch. This is not going to be a three-month, 90-day spike it and turn it over to the dealers. This is [going to be a] consistent effort through all the next calendar year.
" This is not two TV ads and done. The launch is completely right-sized being a core vehicle that can do a substantial amount of volume."

Waiter, We're Tropical Grillin'
9 comments :
This dessert has so many delicious flavors, Elle! Bananas and coconut are big here.ReplyDelete
that is one of my favorite quick and easy deserts. While the grill is hot I will throw on pineapples and banannas.ReplyDelete
A touch of ron rico rum will make it special =D
I'm getting to the tag~ to much rum recently??
Lis, so glad that melty is loveable...I like it that way myself, but thought that I was a failure in the photography dept for the melted pool. Let me know if you make it...love your enthusiasm!ReplyDelete
Peabody, yes it really is the caramelization plus warm bannanas taste different than cold ones.
Cynthia, truly a pure pleasure dessert. The grill has been getting a workout indeed.
Veron, do try it...it's decadent. Glad you like the ice cream pools like Lis...you two make me feel better.
Patricia,You are lucky! Pineapple is often very expensive fresh here.
Sandi,ooohhh, forgot the rum. Next time Sweetie! You were gone, so take your time with the meme.
Deborah,Thank you...me either.
Who needs chocolate when you can have fruity desserts like this? I'm not a huge banana fan, but gently caramelized pineapple sinking slowly in melty ice cream... [groan of pleasure, cue "i'll have what she's having" scene] :o)ReplyDelete
Thanks for a great WTSIM entry and hope to see you back next month :)

The traditional service has its roots when the Monarch would distribute coins (maundy money) to members of the peasantry and later, poor, elderly people, in an act related to how Jesus was said to have washed the feet of one of his disciples.
Nowadays, Maundy Money is distributed to elderly members of the local area in which The Queen is performing the year's maundy service. This year, pensioners from the Oxford area will be selected to receive maundy money from Her Majesty.
The maundy coins come in four denominations, 1 pence, 2 pence, 3 pence and 4 pence. The maundy coins are not in circulation and are merely symbolic.
One man and one woman is chosen for every year of the Queen's age, this year there will be 87 men and 87 women (the calculation includes the current year) present to receive maundy money, a total of 174 people present to receive maundy money. The recipients receive an amount of maundy money that is equal to the Queen's age, i.e.g 87 pence each.
The effigy of The Queen on ordinary circulating coinage has undergone three changes, but Maundy coins still bear the same portrait of Her Majesty prepared by Mary Gillick for the first coins issued in the year of her coronation in 1953.
The Yeoman of the Guard are present at the ceremony and carry dishes containing the money above their heads, traditionally so those in the crowds around couldn't grab the contents.
The Queen then participates in a religious service before handing the maundy money out to the chosen recipients.
There are two 'purses' containing money given to each recipient. One containing the maundy money and one containing money in 'lieu of clothing', nowadays it's usually just a commemorative £5 coin. In 2012, it was a £5 coin marking The Queen's Diamond Jubilee. Technically, these £5 coins are legal tender, but are more likely to be kept for commemorative purposes. This year, the £5 coin to commemorate the 60th anniversary of Her Majesty's coronation will probably be distributed.
Last year, Princess Beatrice accompanied The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh to York Minster. It is unclear, as yet, who'll accompany Her Majesty and His Royal Highness this year.
You can follow us on Twitter for the event where we'll be live tweeting comments and pictures of the event. Click the follow button below; we'll begin tweeting when Her Majesty arrives (between 10.30 and 11am).
