As I mentioned earlier, one of my inspirations for starting this blog was being at one of the 4Talent open days (which you should look at if you are an aspiring young media… person? They have great open days that can link you to work experience placements and inspiration events, as well as longer internships) and when I was there, I met a young girl who was asking the speaker what sort of Film course you should be aiming for if you want to learn the tricks of the film trade. I mouthed to her that I could give her some answers and afterwards I told her all about my own course at York St John, and I realized just how lucky I actually am.
It also reminded me of when I was looking for a university course. There was even a time when I didn't even know you could do a course like this. There are many different names for this kind of course, and you might not think yours is the right one. For example, my course is Film and TV Production, but it most definitely is not just a production course, which, for me, makes it sound like something that churns out camera operators etc. Not that there's anything wrong with that, it's just not what I was looking for. And I assume that people who are willing to take a risk with taking this kind of course, want to aim high. You have to if you want to get ahead.
So, I'm going to make a sort of checklist for any young people about what they should be looking for in a film course. My course is definitely not perfect and could do with a huge boost in organisation between some of the lecturers, but aside from that it definitely has all of these vital aspects:
- Get practical – We all want to get our hands on some really cool equipment. And that is important. If you get to an open day and you're not being shown the equipment that they use, get out of there. The equipment needs to be a focus of the course, not just an odd novelty. I strongly believe one of the best ways to learn is through experience (and making mistakes.) You need to be able to make projects. It also what is most likely to be drawing you to the course, so it's lots of fun. Although it can be very, very stressful. But that's the job! But once you know how to use a camera, how to set up a mic, a lighting kit, how to edit together something to a professional standard (we use Avid) then you have all the tools you need to go out there and start working on projects of your own
- But theory is important too! – Ideally, the theory will compliment what you're doing in the practical side of things. For us, we get a lecture and a workshop for each module (Screen-writing, Fiction and Documentary.) The workshops are held in TV Studios so there is the option to practice, as well as having smaller group time with the tutors, which is always helpful, as they have lots of industry experience (ideally.) If you don't know WHY you're doing what you're doing, there's no point. It's great to look at a film and be able to work out why they make certain decisions. Film is an art form, it's all about meaning. And to convey meaning, you have to learn about how. It obviously isn't all thrilling if you're not the most academic person, but it's really hard to be wrong.
- Be able to book out the equipment – On our course, we are able to book out the kit for our own projects. We have to get permission and go through loads of paperwork, but it's worth it. There's no better experience out there than arranging your own project and getting it done.

Looks same problem.Benj wrote:Hello,
So we are on the same lines what exactly isn't working that you would like me to investigate.
From the looks of it UART comms is not working and timer interrupts are also not working? Is this correct?
Yes !! Collect.
Just been through the chip definition and both Timer0 and Timer1 look ok.
It is not working.
I've also been through the UART CAL comparing the register setup with a known working device and this also checks out.
So I'll wait for you to confirm the specific issue you've experienced.
I tried UART changed pin number. But that is not working.
I don't know how change UART CAL.
In your project you have all AltTx and AltRx properties set to Yes, what happens if you set these to No.
Thank you.

Recorded at roughly the same time as last year's Rehearsing My Choir, the latest from the Freidberger siblings is free of conceptual trappings, and is another carefully considered, sonically rich release.
Seven months after the story-songs of Rehearsing My Choir comes the companion album, recorded around the same time with just the grandkids on the mic. The earlier record's "difficulty" is debatable; Rehearsing My Choir failed for many (including me), but not because it was too opaque or complicated. Taken as a whole, the lyrics were probably the most accessible the band has written so far. But the lead voice and format, both of which were chosen with a reasonable expectation of the intended effect, were never going to work for everybody. It was a specialty item.
Bitter Tea is a very different record: no Olga Sarantos; no overriding narrative; not as much in the way of recurring musical themes. But it's cut from the same cloth, and its "meaning," or the meaning of individual songs, is surely even harder to grasp. This is not by any stretch a turn toward the accessible, though there are a few great pop moments. We'll get to those in a sec.
What comes to mind during early listens is how odd this record sounds, and how often the production on Fiery Furnaces' records is overlooked. Some of the distinctiveness is up to Eleanor Friedberger's voice, with her English major's diction and her ability to make the dozen or so notes in her natural range do all kinds of work. Her brother understands her strengths, writing for her crisp lines that draw attention to the grammatical construction. "To see: could there one for me be?" from this record's "Waiting to Know You", for example. But Bitter Tea as a sonic experience, in terms of the instruments used and the effects used on them, is even more exceptional.
For starters, this makes two albums in a row where a tinny upright piano dragged from a the lounge of a depression-era bordello functions as the signature instrument, stitching together the patchwork songs with Matt Friedberger's speedy little trills. Before it seemed to reference a radio play; here it serves as a reminder that we inhabit the world of one band and one band only. Other interesting choices abound: squelchy Moog that references neither the instrument's classic era nor its 90s update; distorted percussion meant to be disorienting instead of forceful; a disco beat that gyrates in place with quotation marks standing in for the mirror ball.
Then there's the regular stream of backward vocals, the record's most pressing recurring motif. On tracks like "In My Little Thatched Hut", "The Vietnamese Telephone Ministry", and "Nevers", the words move backward but the melody still fits the chords. The technique may allude to a wrinkle in time or some sort of aphasia, but it also points up how little comprehension of the actual lyrics matters to the enjoyment of Fiery Furnaces' music. I consider myself a curious person but I couldn't care less what's actually being said on the backward bits.
Puzzling over meanings and allusions seems a worthwhile project, though, and I've no doubt that on some level the words can bear such scrutiny. Some amount of detective word might transform some of the less musically engaging tracks into something enjoyable. I can't find much in "I'm In No Mood", "The Vietnamese Telephone Ministry", or "Whistle Rhapsody" to draw me back again; to my ears they serve mostly as reminders of Bitter Tea's gassy bloat (72 minutes, though two tracks repeat at the end in different mixes). The album seems to drag in its final third, but really the lesser tracks are spread evenly throughout. It's more a cumulative weariness than any sort of front-loading.
Which is unfortunate since Bitter Tea contains some of Fiery Furnaces' best songs. "Teach Me Sweetheart" is unfailingly gorgeous, a perfect melding of experimental production ideas that match perfectly the mood and the sweet, undeniable melody. "Waiting to Know You" is almost as good with its prom night slow dance chord progression, and bizarre mix; there's no logical reason why this song needs an absurdly fat Moog bass, but hey, turns out it does. "Police Sweater Blood Vow" seems like a quirky leftfield pop hit; in another time it might have been this band's "Birdhouse in Your Soul", And "Benton Harbor Blues", particular in its second mix, which omits a meandering two-minute intro, shows how effortlessly Matt Friedberger can come up with a simple, breezy, and likeable pop tune when so inclined. If Fiery Furnaces wanted a shortcut to a larger audience, this track points the way.
But such a path probably doesn't interest these two. Fiery Furnaces have other things in mind, and so far the project seems in part to be about finding a way to challenge themselves and stay interested when writing good, catchy songs comes so easy. Fiery Furnaces is the work of thought and calculation rather than instinct. This imparts a chilly remove to the records but I don't think that's a criticism. There's no shortage of direct and heartfelt indie rock that talks about the passion, but nothing else going sounds like the Fiery Furnaces' carefully considered babble.

Unused furniture. Excess appliances. Family heirlooms. The million and one things you don't use, haven't used, or have no plans of ever using.
What do you do with all these things?
Self-storage is the Answer.
As a homeowner, you would want to use all available space in the best way possible. Over the years, you could have accumulated numerous bits and bobs. You might also have noticed that your personal effects and possessions have accrued and are now crowding your space.
You can regain some much-needed space in your home by placing some of your knick-knacks and even some valuable items in a rented storage unit.
By renting the right storage unit, you can do away with these homeowner problems in a jiffy:
Problem #1: Clutter everywhere
Whether you live with a family who seems to have collected a gazillion things over time or you live alone and have a penchant for hoarding, signing up for storage can greatly reduce clutter in your home.
There's no use keeping things around when you or your housemates no longer have a use for them. If you simply cannot bring yourself to let go of some items, you can simply store them in a clean and safe storage module.
Problem #2: You need some space
There are situations and events in life that you might need some space – literally and figuratively. Whether you've decided to move out of your parent's house, live independently since you've found a good job, or you're going through a separation, the things you have collected over time may need to be temporarily stored.
Your new living quarters may lack the necessary space to house all of your belongings and storing it in a different place can be the solution. Until you have sorted out what items you want to live with and where you want to put them permanently, your personal effects can wait comfortably in the confines of a dust-free storage unit.
Problem #3: Valuable collectibles and collections simply lying around
You might be lucky to get hold of family heirlooms or have the good fortune to procure priceless works of art, vintage pieces, or exclusive collections.
With the value of these assets, you just don't want to leave them at home where burglars can easily get them. You can safely store your prized possessions in a modular storage facility that practices clever handling of your goods, has a temperature-controlled environment, and round the clock security.
Problem #4: Multitasking means multiple zones
If in case you find yourself donning several caps – spouse, parent, carer, career person, and all around superhero – you might find yourself at a loss for space to store all the tools you need to do your multiple jobs.
If your home doubles as a working space, you can opt to store some things to help you organise and declutter your working space. Divide and conquer your home items from work tools and store those that are not often needed in a rented unit.
Similarly, if you are running an e-commerce business in the comfort of your home, you can also consider a modular storage facility as your stockroom. Safely stow slow-moving stocks, inventory, or office supplies in the storage facility so you won't have to deal with mounds of work-related goods in your abode.
Problem #5: Construction concerns
Storage solutions can be extremely beneficial when you do not have a place to store your possessions while you're having a new home constructed or if you're making renovations to your place.
Protect your belongings by renting a storage unit where you can keep your goods safe and dry while your house is undergoing maintenance or construction. This way, you reduce the risk of damage to your home items by removing them from the construction site.
Safe and Secure Storage Solutions
With the abovementioned concerns, a safe and clever storage solution is the best route to go for.
Choose a storage company that offers modular storage units. This will ensure that all your goods are directly loaded into specially constructed modules which are then cleverly sealed and delivered into a clean and secure storage facility. This means no double handling and your items will remain dry, clean, and in the same condition as when they were loaded originally.
With modular storage solutions, you can free up your mind from worry and more importantly, get more space.

ECR MINERALS plc
("ECR Minerals", "ECR" or the "Company")
LONDON: 21 DECEMBER 2015 - The directors of ECR Minerals plc (the "Directors") are pleased to announce the publication of the Canadian NI43-101 technical report (the "Report") in respect of the Danglay gold project in the Philippines (formerly known as the Itogon project).
The Report supports the disclosure on 5 November 2015 of an inferred mineral resource estimate for oxide gold mineralization at Danglay. A revised inferred mineral resource estimate is disclosed in the Report and is tabulated below as Table 1. The reasons for the revision are set out below.
ECR is the operator of the Danglay project with the right to earn a 50% interest therein, pursuant to an earn-in and joint venture agreement between ECR, Tiger International Resources, Inc. ("Tiger International") and Cordillera Tiger Gold Resources, Inc.
The executive summary from the Report is excerpted below. The full report has been filed by Tiger International, as the party subject to Canadian regulation, on SEDAR (www.sedar.com). The full report is available for download from SEDAR, and will be made available for download today from the ECR website (www.ecrminerals.com).
The Report discloses a target for further exploration (the "Exploration Target"), as permitted by NI43-101. The basis on which the Exploration Target has been disclosed in the Report is set out therein, and has been excerpted below. ECR previously disclosed the Exploration Target, in accordance with NI43-101, in its announcement dated 5 November 2015. The following risk warning should be noted with respect to the Exploration Target.
A target for further exploration is not a mineral resource estimate, is conceptual in nature, and is used where there has been insufficient exploration to define the target as a mineral resource and where it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.
Stephen Clayson, Chief Executive Officer of ECR, commented:
"The Report includes, in summary form, all material scientific and technical information in respect of the Danglay project as of the effective date of the document, and the Directors hope that the Report will help ECR shareholders, potential investors and any other interested parties come to a more detailed understanding of the merits of the project.
The Report makes detailed recommendations for further exploration at the Danglay project, with a budget of US$775,000. The Directors are considering the extent to which these recommendations may be implemented by ECR, and a further announcement will be made in due course.
Separately, the Directors are pleased to note recent political developments in Argentina, including the election of a new president who is seen to be relatively pro-business, and the liberalisation of currency controls. The Directors expect to provide an update regarding the outlook for the Company's SLM gold project in Argentina in early 2016."
Revised Resource Estimate
An inferred oxide gold mineral resource estimate with respect to the Danglay project was disclosed on 5 November 2015 with an effective date of 24 October 2015, and is tabulated below as Table 2. This was a 'global' mineral resource estimate with respect to oxide mineralization at the Danglay project.
During the process of completing the Report, three areas of oxide mineralization (known as Danglay Ridge, Hillside and Bito) were identified. In order to better assess the exploration potential of these areas and more effectively plan further exploration, Mr Neil Motton BSc (Hons), MAusIMM (CP - Geology), MSEG, of the consultancy Snapper Resources Ltd ("Snapper"), was asked to estimate the oxide resource for each area as three separate domains. This resulted in the revised mineral resource estimate tabulated below as Table 1.
Mr Motton is independent of ECR and Tiger International and is a Qualified Person under NI43-101 for the purposes of estimating the mineral resource, which is disclosed in accordance with NI43-101 and has been estimated in accordance with the requirements of the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) "Estimation of Mineral Resource and Mineral Reserves Best Practice Guidelines" and the JORC Code.

The key assumptions, parameters and methods used in the preparation of the above tabulated resource estimate are disclosed along with other items required under NI43-101 in the Report. The mineral resource estimate is disclosed at a cut-off grade of 0.75 g/t gold. The basis for the selection of this cut-off grade is set out in the Report. Figures have been rounded to reflect the relative accuracy of the estimate. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability. There is no certainty that all or any part of the mineral resource will be converted into a mineral reserve.

Executive Summary (excerpted from the Report)
Exploration Alliance Ltd ("EAL") was asked by ECR Minerals plc ("ECR") to produce a National Instrument 43-101 ("NI43-101") compliant technical report supporting the disclosure by Tiger International Resources, Inc. ("Tiger International") of a mineral resource estimate for the Danglay gold project in the Philippines. The oxide mineral resource was estimated by Mr Neil Motton of the consultancy Snapper Resources Ltd ("Snapper").
The Danglay project is covered by Exploration Permit ("EP") 006-2011-CAR, which comprises 330 contiguous hectares, and within which is situated an exploration prospect known as the Danglay gold prospect. The EP was issued to a Philippine corporation named Cordillera Tiger Gold Resources, Inc. ("CTGR"), which is 100% beneficially owned by Tiger International, on the 15th February 2011 for an initial two-year exploration period. The EP was renewed with a date of 1st October 2013 for a further two-year term, which expired on 30th September 2015. Application for renewal of the EP for a third two-year exploration term has been made. After expiry of this third exploration term, the EP may be renewed for an additional two years for the purpose of completing feasibility studies and making application for a mining licence only (as opposed to further exploration).
ECR holds the right to earn up to a 50% interest in CTGR, pursuant to an earn-in and joint venture agreement between ECR, CTGR and Tiger International, dated the 26th April 2013 (as amended). ECR has been the operator of the Danglay project, through CTGR, since the commencement of the earn-in on the 6th December 2013.
The Danglay project is located in the Republic of the Philippines on the northern island of Luzon. It is approximately 14 kilometres to the southeast of Baguio City and lies within the prolifically gold-copper mineralized Baguio District. The project has a history of artisanal mining which currently continues on a very small scale—local miners extract weathered and oxidized quartz veins from a series of near surface shallow adits and process the material onsite using very small scale mills, and rudimentary gravity and cyanide leach recovery techniques.
Benguet Exploration reviewed the prospect in the 1960s by driving two exploration adits. Subsequently, limited drilling was completed by BHP Engineering Pty Ltd (Australia) on behalf of New Australian Resources N.L., which allowed the estimation of an oxide gold resource. Limited bench-scale metallurgical testing was also completed. In 1996 Placer Pacific Exploration, Inc. conducted limited exploration and estimated an oxide resource using BHP's data. Several other entities/groups have visited the property and completed reports as outlined in Section 5 of this report.
Primary mineralization at Danglay is of an intermediate sulphidation type comprising multiple steeply-dipping, quartz-sulphide-base metal sulphide veins and breccias, and associated quartz-vein stockwork and silica-clay pyrite selvages. Weathering and oxidation of primary mineralization, and pyrite in wall rocks, has resulted in development of an oxide (supergene) gold blanket. To date three mineralized zones have been defined: Danglay Ridge, Hillside and Bito—with cumulative strike length of approximately 600 metres and individual widths of up to 100 metres.
Since commencing field work in January 2014, ECR have completed a well-designed exploration program comprising a prospect-wide topographic survey, 935 metres of surface channel sampling, 383 metres of underground channel sampling, 440 metres of trench sampling, 30 geochemical test pits, and 1812 metres of angled RC and diamond drilling. The work was completed to a high standard and, based on the methodology outlined in Section 13 of this report, has enabled the estimation of an inferred oxide gold resource of 1,277,500 tonnes at a grade of 1.55 g/t Au for 63,500 ounces using a cut-off grade of 0.75 g/t Au—the resource estimate is effective the 18th of December 2015. Approximately 80% of the resource estimate comprises in situ oxide material and the remainder comprises talus that has moved downslope to some extent.
The inferred oxide resource estimate defines a broadly flat-lying zone that was modelled from surface to a maximum depth of approximately 20 metres—drill core logging indicates that oxidation may extend downwards along quartz veins and silicified structures to depths of at least 40 metres, suggesting that potential exists to extend the oxide zone deeper, subject to the results of further drilling. Possible strike extensions may also exist between the Danglay Ridge, Hillside and Bito zones, which will require drill testing.
In addition to estimation of an oxide resource, ECR requested that the author provide a target for further exploration with respect to primary mineralization at the Danglay prospect. On the basis outlined in Section 15 of this report, a lower bound target for further exploration was estimated at 600,000 tonnes at 5 g/t Au (95,000 contained ounces of gold) and an upper bound target was estimated at 700,000 tonnes at 7.5 g/t Au (170,000 contained ounces of gold). Targets for further exploration are not mineral resource estimates, are conceptual in nature, are used where there has been insufficient exploration to define the target as a mineral resource, and where it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.
The intermediate sulphidation epithermal vein deposits of the Baguio District have been mined over 100s of vertical metres and giant deposits such as Antamok and Acupan have been mined over vertical intervals of approximately 600 to 800 metres. Most production has come from quartz-pyrite-base metal sulphide veins and breccias with lesser production from carbonate-sulphide-base metal sulphide veins (for example the Sangilo deposit). High and bonanza grade shoots occur within the broader vein architecture and are important contributors to overall mined grade.
Rock chip grab samples taken by the author at the Danglay prospect indicate that some parts of the veins, breccias and silicified structures are strongly gold-silver-base metal mineralized—a significant number of samples assayed above 15 g/t Au and a small number assayed above 100 g/t Au. Silver grades of 5-15 oz/t and base metal grades of between 1-2% zinc and up to 1% lead were also noted. The highest grade sample assayed 142 g/t Au, >16 oz Ag, >2% Zn, > 1% Pb and 0.31% Cu. These grades indicate that high to bonanza grade shoots are potentially present. This is consistent with the results of several ECR drill holes which intercepted significant grades over widths typical of intermediate epithermal sulphidation veins in the district. Verification rock chip grab sampling by the author also confirmed the widespread presence of oxide gold mineralization within the weathered zone above the primary sulphidic system, with grades of a similar or better tenor than those used to estimate the inferred oxide resource.
The styles and grades of primary mineralization at the Danglay prospect, presence of low iron sphalerite, and overall texture of veins and breccias, suggests that the intermediate sulphidation system at Danglay has only been eroded to the top of the quartz-sulphide-base metal sulphide interval—indicating robust exploration potential at depth.
Further angled diamond drilling is recommended in order to test the primary mineralization within the Danglay Ridge, Hillside and Bito zones. Understanding structure is key to successful exploration, since structure has exerted a fundamental control on vein formation, and post-mineralization faulting has disrupted, and in part terminated, primary mineralization. Drill holes should be designed to initially target the shallow down-dip extensions of the higher grade vein and structural zones. Quartz-pyrite-base metal sulphide vein breccias, and the intersection points of multiple veins, are considered especially prospective.
The proposed budget for infill drilling, metallurgical testwork and further resource modelling of the oxide zone is USD 375,000 and for further geochemical sampling, structural mapping and further scout drilling of the primary sulphide mineralization is USD 400,000.
Potential Quantity & Grade of Target for Further Exploration (excerpted from the Report)
Based on the extent and grade of outcropping mineralization, the style of mineralization and its similarities to other deposits in the Baguio District, and the exploration potential demonstrated by the exploration works completed to-date, ECR requested that the author discuss a target for further exploration in respect of the primary intermediate sulphidation vein-hosted mineralization below the inferred oxide gold resource. The potential target for further exploration at the Danglay prospect includes the Danglay Ridge, Hillside and Bito mineralized zones.

Grade (g/t gold)
Gold (oz)

Upper bound
A target for further exploration is not a Mineral Resource estimate, is conceptual in nature, and is used where there has been insufficient exploration to define the target as a Mineral Resource and where it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a Mineral Resource.
Basis for Determination of Target for Further Exploration (excerpted from the Report)
The basis for estimation of the lower bound and upper bound targets for further exploration is outlined below.
Vein Width, Length and Vertical Extent: To date three mineralized zones have been identified at the Danglay prospect which collectively have sufficient surface footprint to host multiple veins up to 225 metres long. The Danglay Ridge zone has an outcrop and surface geochemical footprint of approximately 175 metres by 100 metres, the Hillside zone has a surface footprint of approximately 250 metres by 100 metres, and the Bito zone has a strike length of approximately 200 metres and is up to 100 metres wide. Limited RC and diamond drilling by ECR intercepted gold mineralized veins and structures at vertical depths of approximately 75+ metres and mineralization remains open down-dip. Projecting the vertical extent of mineralization to depths of 100-150 metres is considered reasonable for estimation of a target for further exploration—especially given the vertical extent to which intermediate epithermal sulphidation veins of the Baguio District were mined. The use of vein widths of between one to three metres in the potential target for further exploration is supported by outcrop and intercepts in ECR's RC and diamond drill holes.
Multiple Veins: In determining the target for further exploration at the Danglay prospect, the author set the lower bound target on the basis that eight veins are present and the upper bound target on the basis that 10 veins are present. The distribution of outcropping veins and silicified structures, and the number of artisanal adits, supports the concept that there are multiple sub-parallel veins within the Danglay Ridge, Hillside and Bito mineralized zones.
Grade of Mineralization: The lower bound target for further exploration was based on an average grade of 5 g/t Au and the upper bound range on an average grade of 7.5 g/t Au. Channel and trench sampling by ECR targeted the broadly flat-lying, near surface oxide gold zone, where dispersion of gold between mineralized veins and structures is to be expected—most samples were extensively oxidized and are unlikely to reflect the grades of underlying quartz-pyrite-base metal sulphide veins. A significant number of the rock-chip grab samples taken by the author targeted primary quartz-pyrite base metal sulphide veins, either in surface outcrop, or as material removed from the longer artisanal adits. Whilst these samples indicate that there is significant variation in gold, silver and base metal grades along the strike of a given vein, they also indicate that high grade to bonanza grade gold-silver shoots are likely to be present (Section 6.3.3: Mineralization). Use of average grades of 5.0 g/t Au and 7.5 g/t Au is considered reasonable, given that a significant number of rock-chip grab samples returned very high assay grades, and modelled grades are in keeping with average grades from other deposits in the Baguio District, and the results from several of the ECR's RC and diamond drill holes as outlined in Section 9.0 of this report. For example:
# ECR002 intercepted 5 metres @ 6.46 g/t Au from 10-15 metres (including 1 metre 21.85 g/t Au from 13-14 metres), 15 metres @ 3.29 g/t Au from 82-97 metres (including 2 metres @ 18.25 g/t Au from 9294 metres), and 17 metres @ 1.57 g/t Au from 101-118 metres (including 3 metres @ 5.45 g/t Au 103-106 metres).
# ECR004 intercepted 30 m of near surface oxide mineralization @ 1.63 g/t Au from 0-30 metres (including 2 metres @ 7.1 g/t Au from 0-2 metres and 1 metre @ 6.87 g/t Au from 15-16 metres) and 2 metres @ 9.43 g/t Au from 64-66 metres (including 1 metre @ 11.61 g/t Au from 64-65 metres).
Main Risks with Respect to Target for Further Exploration (excerpted from the Report)
The target for further exploration is based on a conceptual model that requires further detailed mapping and drill testing to confirm. As with any conceptual model there are inherent risks—in this case the author considers the major ones to be post mineralization structural complexity, actual grades, and the down-dip and strike continuity of veins.
Structural Complexity: There is significant evidence that post-mineral 020°-040° trending faults (Section 6.3.2: Structure) either truncate (e.g. the Northern Bounding Fault at the northern edge of the Danglay Ridge mineralized zone) or off set mineralization. The dip of these faults is poorly constrained, and dependent upon dip orientation and sense of fault movement, it is possible that they truncate mineralization at depth. The inability to accurately model 020°-040° fault architecture, or structure in general, with the present dataset should be considered a risk with respect to continuity of mineralization at depth. Similarly, whilst field evidence suggests that the Danglay Fault which bounds the Danglay Ridge and Hillside mineralized zones dips steeply to the east, the dip of the fault is poorly constrained and it is possible that it truncates the most westerly veins at depth.
Gold Grades: The grades used to estimate the lower and upper bounds of the target for further exploration are based on the assumption that high to bonanza grades shoots occur within the broader vein architecture contribute to the overall grade. Assay results from rock-chip slabs clearly indicate that high and locally bonanza grade gold-silver mineralization is present at surface and in near surface artisanal adits. Several ECR drill holes also intercepted high grade mineralization at depth (Section 9: Drilling). Nevertheless, until further drilling is completed significant uncertainties remain with respect to grade and grade distribution, the presence or absence of significant high grade to bonanza grade zones, or the true thickness of mineralization at depth.
Vein Continuity: In addition to the uncertainties arising from the effects of post mineralization faulting, vein architecture at depth is poorly constrained, and the possibility exists that veins pinch and swell at depth dependent upon controlling structure architecture. Until further drilling is completed, uncertainty with respect to vein architecture remains a poorly quantified risk factor.

AAS: atomic absorption spectroscopy
assay: a test performed on a sample of ore or minerals to determine the amount of valuable metals contained
channel sample: a sample of pieces of vein or mineral deposit that have been cut out of a small trench or channel, usually about 10cm wide and 2cm deep
diamond drilling: a type of rotary drilling that utilises a fluid lubricated and cooled cylindrical diamond drill bit. As the drill bit cuts into the rock a cylindrical core of rock is recovered in the core barrel
drill core: rock samples recovered by diamond drilling
epithermal: mineralization produced by near surface hydrothermal fluids related to igneous activity; originally defined as having formed in the range 50-300°C.
inferred mineral resource: that part of a mineral resource for which quantity and grade or quality can be estimated on the basis of geological evidence and limited sampling and reasonably assumed, but not verified, geological and grade continuity. The estimate is based on limited information and sampling gathered through appropriate techniques from locations such as outcrops, trenches, pits, workings and drill holes
intermediate sulphidation: epithermal gold and silver deposits of both vein and bulk-tonnage styles may be broadly grouped into high-, intermediate-, and low-sulphidation types based on the sulphidation states of their primary sulphide assemblages. From an exploration perspective, intermediate sulphidation systems generally occur peripheral to porphyry copper-gold deposits but at deeper levels than low sulphidation systems. Mineralization is typically hosted in steeply dipping veins and breccia zones which may contain high grade shoots. Stockwork zones between vein sets may represent lower grade bulk tonnage targets. Intermediate sulphidation systems generally have a vertical metal endowment of hundreds of metres
g: grams
g/t: grams per tonne
m and cm: metre and centimetre, respectively
mineral reserve: the economically mineable part of a measured or indicated mineral resource demonstrated by at least a preliminary feasibility study
mineral resource: a concentration or occurrence of diamonds, natural solid inorganic material, or natural solid fossilised organic material including base and precious metals, coal, and industrial minerals in or on the Earth's crust in such form and quantity and of such a grade or quality that it has reasonable prospects for economic extraction. The location, quantity, grade, geological characteristics and continuity of a mineral resource are known, estimated or interpreted from specific geological evidence and knowledge.
Mineral resources are sub-divided, in order of increasing geological confidence, into inferred, indicated and measured categories. An inferred mineral resource has a lower level of confidence than that applied to an indicated mineral resource. An indicated mineral resource has a higher level of confidence than an inferred mineral resource but has a lower level of confidence than a measured mineral resource
oxidation: a chemical reaction caused by exposure to oxygen that results in a change in the chemical composition of a mineral
oxide gold: said of gold that has been liberated from sulphides during the process of oxidation to form a surficial, sub-horizontal to horizontal zone
preliminary economic assessment (PEA): a study, other than a prefeasibility or feasibility study, that includes an economic analysis of the potential viability of Mineral Resources
primary deposit: valuable minerals deposited during the original period or periods of mineralization, as opposed to those deposited as a result of alteration or weathering
quartz: common rock-forming mineral consisting of silicon and oxygen
ppm: parts per million
reverse circulation (RC) drilling: percussive drilling method in which cuttings are raised to surface by a stream of compressed air inside the drill rods
t: tonne
stockwork: a network of veinlets, usually quartz
sulphide: a compound of sulphur and some other element
supergene enrichment: said of a mineral deposit formed at or just below the Earth's surface, generally through downward percolation of rainwater, resulting in liberation of gold through oxidation of sulphides, and its concentration and enrichment within a given horizon
trench: a long, narrow excavation dug through the upper parts of the soil profile or overburden to expose bedrock veins and structures
vein: material which was chemically deposited by fluids within a rock fracture; veins exhibit a range of textures and minerals, depending primarily on the temperature, depth, and composition of the fluid and host rock; may also contain a small amount (<10%) of entrained host rock and/or vein clasts
zone/domain: an area of distinct mineralization

Whitefish Winter Carnival with the Casting for Recovery Crew!
This weekend is the Whitefish Winter Carnival in Whitefish, Montana! Glacier Anglers is excited to be putting a boat into the float parade.
Our craft will be manned by the Casting for Recovery gang. The theme of the Carnival this year is Fiesta Pescado Blanco (that means Whitefish Festival, folks), so we will fiesta up the drift boat and do our best to show 'em how we party in West Glacier! If you are around the Flathead Valley this weekend, don't miss the parade and carnival – it is a ton of fun!
Casting for Recovery was founded on the principles that the natural world is a healing force and that cancer survivors deserve one weekend — free of charge and free of the stresses from medical treatment, home, or workplace — to experience something new and challenging while enjoying beautiful surroundings within an intimate, safe, and nurturing structure.
Parade starts at 3pm on Saturday, but check out the full schedule for all the fun things to do.

Southerners rue, curse and unhappily abide kudzu, but few of them ever eat it.
The Internet's awash in recipes for steamed kudzu leaves and powdered kudzu root starch, yet most folks who live where the Japanese vine's transformed once-recognizable landscapes into undulating humps of green would no sooner cook up a mess of kudzu than take their tea unsweetened.
Kudzu's considered -- at best -- a goat snack in the Southeastern United States, where the plant was introduced in the 1930s as a means of erosion control. Barbara Hyman, a Dallas resident who grew up in the central Mississippi town of Lexington, never met anyone who'd sampled it.
But the idea of "kudzu jelly" lodged in her brain a few years back, and she mentioned the concept to her sister Gina. Gina's hairdresser had a recipe, so the women began collecting kudzu blossoms, a chiggery task complicated by the purple blossoms' tendency to clump behind the vine's broad leaves.
"The best way to find them is to roll down your window on a small road, and you can smell the fragrance of perfumed grape," Hyman says. "You don't see it."
It takes almost a cup of blossoms to make a jar of jelly; Hyman went home with about four cup's worth. She then rinsed the flowers, put them in a pot and poured boiling water over them.
"It turns an ugly, yucky gray, and then you let it sit overnight so it can infuse," Hyman explains.
The next day, Hyman strained the kudzu water and added lemon juice, pectin and sugar, the final step in a nearly presto-recipe. The jelly set as promised into a pretty, magenta-hued mass that tasted of honeysuckles and lilacs. It's flagrantly sweet. "I tried to make it low-sugar, but it didn't work out," Hyman says.
Still, the full-sugar jelly's pretty delicious.
"It was so unusual, I decided maybe I should enter it in the State Fair," Hyman recalls (although she can't remember the exact year.)
Hyman toted her jars of jelly to the fair, where she found other women dragging wagons stocked with dozens of entries and an official who didn't know quite how to classify her submission. Kudzu was clearly not a strawberry or an apple or a grape.
"I said, 'It's all over the South'," Hyman says. "She said, 'Well, that's tropical'."
Hyman won the blue ribbon in the tropical category. While she hasn't entered the jelly in any more contests, she still makes it annually. She and her husband, Robert, spread it on toast and drizzle it on yogurt. This year, she offered to serve it at the Southern Foodways Alliance symposium, but was told the organization planned to serve pho rather than biscuits for breakfast.
Hyman surmises kudzu jelly might be as foreign as pho to some of the conference attendees.

"No one I've ever shared it with has ever heard of it," she says, laughing. "I must travel in very small circles."
If kudzu jelly became wildly popular, its production could help Southerners feel differently about the smothering scourge. But Hyman would need the help of an army of blossom pickers in late summer, when the vine blooms.
"I'm not going to be able to make enough jelly myself to make any difference," she says with the familiar resignation of a kudzu-weary Mississippian.
(Here's one of several recipes for kudzu jelly available on the Internet.)

It is not often that the G8 leaders--folks like Obama, Merkel, Cameron, Hollande--tell us all what they will be reading in the coming month. But that's what they did in part of their statement concluding their Camp David meetings.
The G8 world leaders will review a critical, upcoming report from the International Energy Agency about gas production and environmental safeguards that I and others have played a role in writing by submitting comments to a draft and by participating in a workshop to develop its content. The IEA's Special Report is entitled: "Golden Rules for a Golden Age of Gas."
The Report will be released on Tuesday, May 29 in London, Brussels, and Washington DC to the international media.
The upcoming Special Report was specifically mentioned by the G8 Leaders at their recently completed Camp David meeting. The G8 leaders said:
"G8 Leaders recognized that the development of universal access to environmentally safe, sustainable, secure, and affordable sources of energy is essential to global economic growth and to their overall efforts to address climate change. As such, they identified several actions for the G8 to take together:...
Welcome and agree to review the International Energy Agency's work on potential best practices for natural gas development as an input into our effort to share information on strategies for its environmentally safe and sustainable production. http://www.g8.utoronto.ca/summit/2012campdavid/g8-energy-factsheet.html.
Though I have read and commented on a draft and participated in an IEA workshop to discuss what should be in the Report, I have not seen the final report. I too will be reading the final version of the IEA's "Golden Rules for a Golden Age of Gas."

It's come to our attention that many do not know who, or what, BuildMyEmails is, or what we do. And it seems like there are some myths about how BuildMyEmails makes your marketing emails better. So we've decided to clear the air once and for all by busting the top 3 myths.
Myth #1
BuildMyEmails sends your emails like any other email service provider.
Nope. In fact, we do everything else, but.
A lot of work goes into creating an awesome and effective marketing email – content, design and coding. And in the process, there's a lot of stuff that can go wrong – grammatically wrong sentences, low-res images, bad coding – all and any of which can send your efforts down the drain.
And that's the beauty of BuildMyEmails. Because we'll handle the entire process for you, short of actually sending out your email. You see, we don't really want to access your database. It's yours and shouldn't be shared. But we will take care of the writing, designing and coding. All you have to do, really, is send out the final product – your awesome marketing email.
And the best part: all our emails work great with any email service provider.
Myth #2
BuildMyEmails is going to be really expensive.
Wrong again. While that may be true for some email generators or software, that's not the case with BuildMyEmails.
In fact, we've gone all out to make our packages affordable and super cost effective. A pay-per-use model means you only pay for what you need. And with no subscription plans to tie you down, there's no worry of having to commit to a long-term contract that you can't wait to get out of. To further sweeten the deal, the more emails you buy, the cheaper it gets! What's more, if you can find a company that can do what we do* at a lower price, we'll create your email for free.
*This covers the entire scope of work from content creation and design to the coding and testing of emails.
Myth #3
You only need BuildMyEmails the first time you're creating your email template.
Well, you could do that. But it just wouldn't be smart in the long run. While your email template might not change once it's customised for your business, you can't say the same for your content. And in email marketing, content is key. Sure, you could try to find your own copywriters to create your content. But we all know that finding a good copywriter is like searching for the holy grail.
At BuildMyEmails, you get an experienced team of copywriters who are experts at crafting effective and engaging marketing emails working for you (read: strong CTAs, persuasive content, perfect grammar). And you also get teams of designers and programmers working to put it all together. Sounds pretty amazing to us.
Anyway, we could go on and on about how awesome BuildMyEmails is and how great we are at helping you create better emails, but we really think you should just see it for yourself.

The Irish House Party is Dublin's only Irish music house party. It offers traditional Irish music and dance in its proper intimate and homely setting. The evening is hosted by All Ireland champion musicians, dancers and entertaining presenters in an 18th century townhouse in Dublin 4. Families are welcome. The Party was something of a revolt by Irish musicians against the cheesy and the twee. It is traditional Irish music and dancing at its very best. A light-hearted introduction to Ireland's literary and musical legacy, and some great stories about Dublin further enhance this unique mix of entertainment with a touch of education.
The Irish House Party is located 10 minutes from the city centre. Dinner seating is at 19:00.
Firstly guests enjoy a delicious three course Irish dinner from a choice menu in the dining room. There are gluten free and vegetarian options available. After your dinner your host brings you into the parlour room of the house for the music and Irish dancing.

Today is the feast-day of Saint Michael the Archangel–a good day to take a look at a rare example of German woodcarving on display in one of Rome's art museums.
Michael's battle against Satan is described in the Apocalypse (12:7-9):
"And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels [going forth] to war with the dragon; and the dragon warred and his angels;
"And they prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven.
"And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world; he was cast down to the earth, and his angels were cast down with him."
That's basically what we see in Michael Pacher's statue, which dates from the year 1485. This lovely work of art ended up in Rome, thanks to an upper-class American art collector named George Washington Wurts and his wife Henrietta Tower, who died in 1933. The enormous Tower-Wurts collection of decorative artworks was bequeathed to none other than Benito Mussolini, and then became the property of the Italian State. So you can see that this Saint Michael has certainly had an interesting history!
In the late 1800's, Pope Leo XIII composed the prayer to Saint Michael, which is still popular and very necessary today:
"Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in the day of battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, cast into hell satan and all the evil spirits, who prowl through the world, seeking the ruin of souls."

The Queen of Water, by Laura Resau and María Virginia Farinango
Fort Collins author Resau and her friend Farinango, an indigenous Ecuadorian woman, tell a tremendously potent story about modern slavery. Young Virginia, age 7, is whisked away from her humble rural village to work for amestizo couple who embody the entitlement of their Spanish ancestors.
The woman beats Virginia relentlessly and cruelly. The man becomes Virginia's defender but with an agenda that becomes chillingly obvious as the years pass.
The nuances of race and skin color shape this story of indígena versus mestizo, told with grace and complexity. Based on Farinango's early life. Ages 12 and up
The Year We Were Famous, by Carole Estby Dagg
This charming novel is based on the true story about the author's great-aunt and great-grandmother. In 1896, hoping to attract enough donations to save their bankrupt farm, they set out to walk from rural Washington state to New York City.
Newspaper articles documented their journey, sensationally recounting the women's encounters with rattlesnakes, a flash flood, spring blizzards and an impromptu demonstration of a curling iron for the benefit of an Indian tribe in Utah.
Dagg modifies and expands the tale — here, it's a mother and daughter who succeed in the task that eluded Dagg's ancestors. Their story is brisk and engaging, sprinkled with historic references that lend perspective to what many saw as a foolhardy journey. Ages 10 and up
Take Me to the River, by Will Hobbs
The latest novel from Durango author Will Hobbs ratchets up the tension on a whitewater boat trip in Big Bend National Park.
A North Carolina teen joins his cousin, expecting a challenging experience, but nothing like this. Black Hawk helicopters, kidnappers and a previously untested run of a hazardous stretch of the river combine for an adventure that reads like something primed to be converted into a PG action-adventure movie. Ages 10 and upThe Running Dream, by Wendelin Van Draanen
A bizarre accident shatters Jessica's right leg and foot hours after she wins a 400-meter race with a personal best time. Left with a stump, she finds it hard to be grateful that hers was a below-the-knee amputation.
Hope glimmers in the form of a scythe-shaped prosthetic leg, and from a band of students Jessica once dismissed as misfits. This powerful story lends insight into one of the clubs that nobody wants to join. Ages 10 and up
Nicholas Dane, by Melvin Burgess
This is a worst-case scenario of a child being only nominally sheltered by a system that magnificently fails him. Young Nicholas Dane, 14, is orphaned when his mother fatally overdoses herself.
Attempting to find shelter with a friend's family fails dramatically, sending Nick to the tender mercies of the British social services system and the corrupt staff of a state home for wayward boys.
The result illustrates how neglect and malice combine to protect the abusers and victimize the most vulnerable, told by an author uncomfortably familiar with the ugliest aspects of society. Ages 12 and up
Women Heroes of World War II: 26 Stories of Espionage, Sabotage, Resistance and Rescue, by Kathryn J. Atwood
With a few exceptions, the stories here are about chiefly unsung heroines who helped the Allies and helped save countless Jews during World War II.
Some, like Marlene Dietrich and Corrie ten Boom and Maria von Maltzan, were household names. Others were more obscure. All made dangerous choices that put their lives at risk as they helped others.
This book belongs in the libraries of any student or teacher who sees the National History Day competition as a way of life. Ages 13 and up
Terezin: Voices From the Holocaust, by Ruth Thomson
This is a rare glimpse of how artists portrayed the concentration camps that miserably housed Jews, homosexuals, gypsies and others rejected by the Third Reich.
The text, with some contextual notes by author Thomson, relies heavily on personal accounts by the prisoners, their keepers and others (gardeners, medical workers) whose Nazi overlords attempted to deceive Red Cross visitors into believing the ghetto living conditions were pleasant. Ages 12 and up

Calling all reality show producers: do I have a script for you! Take a  20,000 square foot Texas mansion built by an oil tycoon and his wife – I mean, ex-wife. OK, make that 19,337 square feet with 6 bedrooms, 6 baths, two half baths including one with a musical flushing toilet, two infinity pools, 6 living rooms, Moroccan media room, a guest house with three bedrooms, a caretakers home, Longhorn, cattle and horses and a barn (with full bar) to house them. There are even deer jumping (and getting stuck on) the fence plus rabbits, coyotes, snakes, critters, three mules, a horse, donkey, catfish and brim because the home is on the shores of Lake Grapevine. In fact, there are more than 450 feet of waterfront views of the lake from a 75 foot bluff, which is not only high for, but extremely rare in, Texas.
Now guess who's living there: four forty-something, beautiful divorcees. Rent-free. While the house is on the market.
Call me a voyeur, but I always love to know the story behind every house I visit. Jacque Evans (no relation, unfortunately, she's¬† adorable) built this as her dream home with her husband of 20 some years. No expense was spared in the building or design, and Jacque picked out every stitch of fabric, every stick of furniture, and imprinted her touch on every inch. (My favorite – her bedroom, and the black toile guest house bedroom.) The home took three years to build. After her divorce, she was awarded the home. She found herself opening up to other women in her situation. When she found out some of them had no place to live, she said, why don'Äôt you come over and live with me 'Äì I certainly have plenty of room.
(Note: Divorcee Diva Inn is full.)
"What is the point of having things – a big home, two swimming pools – if you can't share it with people.
Good question: we should ask Lee Bailey!
While it's on the market with dynamo agent Rogers Healy, Jacque shares her home: Living in the guest house is a divorcee with one daughter. Three other women 'Ä쬆 all gorgeous, Jacque looks about 35 'Äì are in two of the six bedrooms. At 19,000 square feet, they are almost a football field away from Jacque'¬Ä¬ôs bedroom and spa bath. Another lives in the caretakers' home.
'ÄúWe are a total support system for each other — we pray, share food, clothes, try on clothes, and have fun all the time,'Äù says Jacque. 'ÄúWe try to laugh every day and are actually having a blast!'Äù
But there is stress: a few weeks ago, the Divas were out (in boots and heels) in Jaque's pasture trying to help a deer who had jumped over and gotten stuck on a fence. Deer, they learned, are pretty heavy. Jacque managed to get the poor dear unstuck and off the fence, and he ran off into the woods.
The estate is protected by an electronic gated fence, located within a gated community in Flower Mound, north-west of Dallas, close to D/FW airport. In fact, sitting on Jacque's patio, you would never think you are anywhere near Dallas until you see a 747 taking off in the distance. Full water views right from the foyer.
"I grew up in Lakeland, Florida, "says Jacque. "When we found this property, it reminded me of that. So rare to have a home on the water just minutes from downtown Dallas.
The home sits on 10.4 acres, and because of the cattle and horse, the new owner will get a Texas agricultural exemption on 9.4 acres. The features and extras in this home run so way over, you have to see to believe: venetian plaster everywhere, stained glass windows, custom tile, the truly Moroccan media room where Jacque hangs with her new beau, a friend from college, a huge bricked-in wine cellar, geo-thermal heating, smart house wiring, two Aga stoves, a walk-in food vault (refrigerator and freezer), exercise rooms, and quality everywhere from the walnut floors to the groin vault ceilings to my favorite: a secret office off a hidden stairway located behind a bookshelf in the study. Also, a billiard room with shoe-shine chairs, and a game room.
The Bachelor my fanny: this home would be the perfect setting for Divorce Divas. Because the guys would have to be pretty darn special to drag me out of this castle, deer or no dear!
This does not look like Texas!
Hidden staircase behind the bookshelf!
The Mistress Bedroom — we don't need a Master!

In 1935, a Village Child of Mayapore managed to escape captivity from the Thuggee operated diamond mine beneath Pankot Palace and made his way home with a Sanskrit manuscript.
At some point the Mayapore village child was, along with all the other children, kidnapped by the Thuggee cult in order to work the mines beneath Pankot Palace for High Priest Mola Ram. Although the cult's ultimate goal was to unearth the remaining two Sankara Stones hidden there, the children also dug for diamonds which funded the Thuggees' scheme.
In 1935, the child somehow managed to escape from the Thuggee's clutches with a Sanskrit manuscript and returned to Mayapore where he passed out in the arms of American archaeologist Indiana Jones, only to be scooped up by his mother, happy to see him again.
Behind the scenes
The character, simply credited as "Village Child", was played by Dharshana Panangala in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. The film's script identified the character as "Little Boy".
Although he didn't appear in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, the Village Child is visible in one of the teaser trailers for the film as some footage of his return to Mayapore from Temple of Doom was included.

New Lupe Fiasco? Sign us up! While we all wait with baited breath for Tetsuo & Youth to drop, new Lupe is always a thumbs up. And fortunately for die hard Lupe fans, he goes on a serious tear on "Pu$$y" featuring Billy Blue. Check out the new Lupe after the jump.
Lupe soooo meta. He raps about the rap game, with all these symbols that name other artists. It's really neat. "Drizzy's Law" live in Atlanta at the kick-off of his Tetsuo & Youth Preview Tour. Hat tip to XXL.


text: That's a nice idea, but it's not very practical to add a dependency on GHC to Erlang users, although if we're just talking server-side then that might be an ok solution. I think we just need to clearly identify what needs to be improved and just fix rebar, anger or sinan to do that. I don't care which one it is, as long as there's a de facto standard. Rebar feels pretty close to standard at this point, so if we can fix it then we'll get the most bang for our buck.

10 thoughts on "The Winemakers Wife "
France, wine, WWII, present day, and love all of this wrapped into one amazing, difficult to put down read.We meet Inez, Celine, Michel, Thor, Liv, and Liv s French grandmother, Edith, as the story moves back and forth in time.We find out about the lives of the winemakers during the war and a secret that grandmother has kept for many years as well as a connection that the vineyards, a restaurant, and the characters have to both time periods and to their lives.Grandmother Edith was my favorite character mysterious and stubborn all rolled into one.Liv was likable as well.Inez, Celine, Michel, and Thor were interesting, and their wine tunnels were fascinating.We learn of the war, the resistance, the French people involved in the resistance, and how the danger of making one simple mistake could alter the safety of many people THE WINEMAKER S WIFE is another marvelous, intriguing read about the resiliency and determination of the French people and the entire European population.Those of us who were not living during this time, do not have any idea of the horrors and hardships endured by the European people.Ms Harmel weaved a beautiful tale filled with authentic characters and a story line that kept me turning the pages to learn as well as cry with the characters.Absolutely LOVED this book Do not miss reading this book 5 5This book was given to me as an ARC by the publisher via Net Galley in exchange for an honest review.
Thanks to NetGalley and Simon Shuster Canada for a digital galley in exchange for an honest review. Kristin Harmel presents a well researched and detailed story set in wartime Reims France 1938 1943 and the other in contemporary France 2019 I gravitated to this story because I have visited Reims and its gorgeous cathedral Notre Dame de Reims the site in which many French monarchs were crowned and was intrigued at the angle of the champagne industry and it s resistance during German occupation Also, I did enjoy the author s 2018 book The Room on Rue Amelie But what often had me considering DNFing or giving this a lower rating on Goodreads was the descent into historical romance Michel, Ines, Cecile, and Theo were all so weak and I honestly hated all of them It was so incredibly difficult to relate to characters that just kept cheating on each other Ines, Cecile, Michel or stuck their heads in the sand Theo I totally get it that ordinary people do exist and they cannot all be superheros, but this book hurt my heart In the contemporary storyline, American Liv and her grandmother, Edith arrive in Reims where Liv is told that this trip is significant Of course, a romance is thrown into the mix and the big reveal was not a surprise at all Disappointing.Goodreads Review 16 06 19Publication Date 09 07 19
Informative, beautiful, and tragic The Winemaker s Wife is a stirring, immersive story set in France during the early 1940s, as well present day, that is told primarily from three different perspectives In s Chauveau, a young wife who after feeling neglected and misunderstood naively makes choices that have far reaching, life changing consequences C line Laurent, the half Jewish wife of Chauveau s winemaker who lives in constant fear of the advancing Germans except when deep within the vineyard caves where she finds solace, hope, contentment, and love and Liv Kent, a recently divorced American who journeys to France at the request of her grandmother only to uncover a family history that s littered with secrets, betrayals, and sacrifices.The prose is preceptive, vivid, and sincere The characters are courageous, vulnerable, and resilient And the plot is a heartrending tale that gives us a unique view into the struggles, sacrifices, horrors, and bravery of those who lived and survived in the Champagne region during this heinous time in history.The Winemaker s Wife is, ultimately, a story about life, love, loss, deception, determination, perseverance, resistance efforts, intricacies of winemaking, and the importance of forgiveness It s pensive, moving, and thoroughly absorbing and a fantastic choice for historical fiction fans and book clubs everywhere.Thank you to Simon Schuster Canada for providing me with a copy in exchange for an honest review.
Rating 3.5 stars rounded down to 3 starsThis is a dual timeline book mainly focusing on northern France during WWII There are some contemporary chapters interwoven which helped propel the storyline I m giving the book 3.5 stars, rounded down to 3 stars This book s genre is Historical Fiction For me there were not enough historical details about the French Resistance in the Champagne region of France during the war to sink my teeth into It often felt like a Romance or Chic Lit Women s Fiction genre book There was a lot going on with the three main protagonists in the WWII era There is Michel Chauveau, and his recently wed wife, Ines Also in the mix are Theo and Celine Laurent Michel recently inherited Maison Chauveau upon the death of his father He has worked hard to learn the wine, specifically the champagne, business Maison Chauveau is unique Michel s grandfather dug an elaborate system of caves under the main house The grapes are made into champagne in the caves The resulting bottles are stored and tended in the caves to until they are ready for market Much of the dramatic action of the book takes place in the caves.Theo is Michel s chef du cave cellar master His half Jewish wife, Celine, was raised in a winemaking family from Burgundy She is a good resource for many facets of the wine making process Ines is the odd person out in this mix She has no wine making experience She soon feels real and imagined slights from Michel and Celine Her feeling of exclusion leads her to make some bad decision have catastrophic unintended consequences However, she is not the only one with unclean hands Then we have the modern story of Grandma Edith and Liv While reading the modern chapters I was usually impatient to return to the WWII era to see what new scrapes this foursome was encountering This was a brutal time of German occupation, French citizens collaborating with the Germans, and French Resistance networks Those elements were touched upon in the story Michel was working for the Resistance I would have liked to read about that work in the book The story often dipped into Romance Chic Lit levels of angst, especially in the modern storyline I would recommend this book to wine making aficionados who want to learn about the Champagne region during WWII I would also recommend it to readers who usually enjoy Women s Fiction and want to learn about this region in France during WWII The Author s Notes at the end of the book also gave resources for continued research about this era and region, and the backstory of how the book came about I appreciated having that information Thank You to NetGalley the publisher, Gallery, Pocket Books and the author, Kristin Harmel for providing a free e ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
The synopsis provided for this story is a bit misleading Less than 15% of the story deals with the French Resistance and over, it goes into little to no details about what they did other than hiding the munitions as stated in the synopsis The members are never named, the groups are unknown, and the effect of their cause is anonymous The reader never sees the outcome of what came from their help with the resistance and there is no action regarding the resistance movement.The premise for this book was an interesting concept showing a different perspective of WWII German occupied citizens the winemakers It was interesting that they were treated differently since the Nazi soldiers needed booze, and I would have liked interaction between them.This novel relishes in marital problems, affairs, and wine The chapters alternate between Liz, Ines, and Celine The reader is quickly made aware of Liz s divorce in 2019 which causes her to fly to Reims, France to stay with her 99 year old spunky Grandma Edith Meanwhile set in 1943 during German occupied France, Ines and Celine both express their own marital problems The first half of the book primarily focuses on Ines and Celine s relationship problems with their spouses Ines constantly feels left out and insignificant, and for the reader it frequently feels like she is whining and can become annoying to suffer through the pages of her moaning about no one caring about her Overall, there was little depth to the main characters, so none of them really resonated with me I didn t like any of the characters set in the past, and I felt like it was hard to get to know them as a reader On the other hand, I did like Grandma Edith and it was her relationship with Liv and the connection that was to be made between her and the past that caused me to keep reading The ending was carefully crafted and enjoyable This is a good light read for those interested in both romance and wine There are pages and pages beautifully describing how wine is made Thank you to Gallery Books, Kristin Harmel, and NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
3 champagne starsThis is a well researched historical fiction tale set in the champagne region of France, mostly during WWII I truly enjoyed learning about the process of maintaining a vineyard, the process for making champagne, and a bit about what the inhabitants of this region did as part of the French resistance.The three women in this book Celine, Ines, and Liv mostly didn t capture my sympathy until the end of the book They didn t feel fleshed out and I struggled to understand why they acted in certain ways I just didn t connect to them in the way I do with a book that I love There are elements of intrigue, secrets, and deception all woven into this one.I really liked The Room on Rue Amelie by this author, so I will definitely read her next book, I wish I would have liked this one .Thank you to NetGalley, Kristin Harmel, and Gallery Pocket Books for a copy of the book to read.
In the Champagne region of France, newlyweds Michel and Ines owned a winery by the name of Maison Chauveau During the 1940s when WWII breaks out, the Nazis invade their small town and take over the supply produced by their winery Lucky for Ines, her life isn t heavily affected by the war, but even still, her marriage is perishing before her eyes And then Ines discovers that Michel is taking part in the French Resistance and she worries what his actions will cost them Celine and her husband Theo live in a cottage on Maison Cheuveau s property, as Theo is Michel s righthand man When Celine learns that the Germans are arresting and sending Jews to work camps, she starts to worry, as she is half Jewish Celine s fears nearly consume her, but her husband doesn t have the empathy she is looking for Instead, she finds sensitivity in Michel, and they strike up a relationship, even in the midst of war In present day, Liz is recently divorced and doesn t know what to do with her life now She visits her 99 year old grandmother Edith in France a chance to get to know her grandmother better while deciding where to go next While in France, Edith starts to reveal stories of her past and Liv learns that Edith was involved in WWII than she originally thought She s getting to discover her family s history but why did Edith wait so long to tell her story The Winemaker s Wife is Kristin Harmel s latest WWII novel set in France I was intrigued by this story because it shed light on a part of French history I wasn t familiar with I never thought about how the wineries were affected by the war I feel like the author could ve delved deeper into how the Nazi s invaded these wineries This story doesn t focus on the gritty, heartbreaking details of WWII and is instead surface level, which can be far palatable for those who have a hard time reading about concentration camps My problem with a lot of this story is the characters I found Ines and Celine to both be unlikable characters and they both were only slightly redeemable by the end I liked Liv, but I wish we saw of her life 3 5 stars Thank you to NetGalley, Gallery Books and Kristin Harmel for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
There That ought to explain why I won t read yet another WWII book featuring the abysmal tropes of muddled romantic relationships between Nazis and their victims, with the obligatory Jewish female thrown in to raise the stakes.
Grab a glass of champagne and kick back with this entertaining historical love story I loved how this author clearly had done a ton of research on the region and the war before setting half the book in WWII Reims and nearby I also appreciate the full dimensions she gave to her characters each teemed with humanity The complexities of their decisions set against an unforgiving background of German occupation made for not only a great read but the ramifications never stop coming This book was great right up to the last page Perfect for those who believe that fate has a way, for those who love historical mysteries and those who just want a cracking good read.
Two women are at a crossroads in life One woman in present day, and one in 1940 as the Nazis invade Champagne, France These two stories of resilience and courage come together to create one beautiful book The Winemakers Wife is a book that immerses you in the wine region of France along with the horrors of war I learned so much about this region during this time period, as well as a plethora of facts about the different Champagne houses The author did an extensive amount of research for this book and it shows I loved the character development, the twists and turns this story took, and the seamlessly woven together dual timelines The Winemakers Wife is a memorable book that weaves a heartbreaking yet hopeful tale This book is fascinating and a must read Thank you gallerybooks for the advance reader in exchange for my honest review.

As a United States Army veteran, while in service, I had two military occupation specialty (MOS) codes: I was an Intelligence Analyst and an Interrogator. Currently, I am a public high school Spanish teacher in Connecticut. I have four beautiful children, the eldest is six and my youngest was born on Thanksgiving Day 2016.
Two years ago, I discovered that my children's nanny was abusing my then three-year old daughter and both of my one-year old twins. In the years since, there has been one setback after another as we try to heal. A service dog will be of great help to me and will also help me be a better parent to my children. As a parent who has endured this unthinkable event and the aftermath, I now suffer from PTSD, Depression, and Anxiety.
An ECAD Service Dog will assist me in coping with emotional overload. The dog will provide me with a sense of security and will also have a calming effect. In my specific case, my daughter has been known to run out of the house when she feels upset. This is very dangerous for her, and the service dog will be trained to alert me before it happens.
Ever since the event has occurred, I feel very uneasy in crowds. The service dog will give me the physical space that I need and can also act as a distraction, removing me from an upsetting situation. Also, I have been experiencing nightmares and night terrors. The service dog will be there to wake me, providing comfort and alleviating anxiety and distress.
Most importantly, my service dog will give me unconditional love and acceptance without judgement, which I so greatly need. My family and I have suffered so much over the past two years. This is why I am trying to raise funds so that I can get a specially-trained service dog.
Thank you for your generous support to help ECAD educate a service dog for Karen.

Quitgate.com, Encourages a Life of Independence from Nicotine Through Offering Gifts to Smokers
The leadership of Quitgate emphasizes that it launched the quit smoking platform just to save lives. They were willing to use their experiences coupled with their open and caring hearts to help people find true happiness while taking control of their own wellness, exercising their personal powers, and conscientiously engaging in a healthy lifestyle to keep them hale and hearty for the rest of their lives.
Plainfield, NJ, July 04, 2014 --(
)-- The one-of-a-kind healthy lifestyle focused-company, Quitgate.com is reiterating its commitment in providing unprecedented quit smoking help and the necessary stop smoking aids needed for smokers to quit. This is coming in commemoration of the United States of America Independence celebration, July 4th. Quitgate.com has been offering low priced smoking cessation products and quit support to Americans with a true passion to see them live smoke-free lives.
Nicotine addiction can have great adverse effects on smokers. They are likely to feel anger, irritation, and depression during the struggle with dependence on tobacco. However, when the decision to quit is carried out there is a feeling of independence. There is a sudden realization that the hook is let loose. Just as Jim Morrison says, "Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free."
Quitgate.com continues to build its reputation as a preferred holistic healthy lifestyle platform following the unique approach it has to smoking cessation which combines evidence-based counselling, social support, smoking cessation products and everything in between.
Emmanuel Odiase, founder of Quitgate.com in motivating smokers said, "In this season and being the beginning of the 2nd half of the year, we urge smokers to have a personal reflection on their health decisions which usually have long term benefits than short term. We want them to look back at the last six months and even though they had failed in their attempts to quit, it's not time to give up. You are not alone on this. It is good to note that on an average, a smoker makes 8-11 quit attempts before they finally quit. That's why we are here to help. Your reason to quit now must far outweigh any need whatsoever to light up so what is that real reason you have chosen to quit? You might already be compelled by threatening health conditions or you really want to be alive for your kids or simply because you just think you are a man and men are meant to be decision makers and unwavering at that. Whatever your reason is, tell yourself it's finally that time and be ready for the challenges. No one said it's going to be easy but you can do it." As the saying goes "Responsibility is the price of freedom." -Elbert Hubbard.
To further prove the passion of Quitgate.com to inspire people at quitting smoking, they have announced that there will be a 30% OFF on all products for the whole of July. On Quitgate.com, click on the green coupon icon to the right and engage on their social media channels. In addition to every discounted product, customers receive a free gift with their orders. This offer no matter the quantity is also backed up with free shipping.
Quitgate.com combines evidence-based counselling, social support, smoking cessation products and wow customer service to help smokers quit. The leadership of Quitgate emphasizes that it launched the quit smoking platform just to save lives. They are willing to use their experiences coupled with their open and caring hearts to help people find true happiness while taking control of their own wellness, exercising their personal powers, and conscientiously engaging in a healthy lifestyle to keep them hale and hearty for the rest of their lives.
