The Ultimate Guide to Rosé Wine
Rosé wine has enjoyed phenomenal success in recent years, helped in part by much better winemaking and, some might argue, by the changing climate, with warmer days giving more opportunities for sipping from a glass of chilled rosé.
The profile of rosés has changed too, with more full-bodied and dry-tasting wines better suited to go with food. That they marry so effortlessly with the eclectic cuisine we enjoy in this country has won them a strong following throughout the year. Our love of rosé is no longer just a summer holiday romance.
Rosé and strawberries
Putting the pink in rosé
Rosé wines come in every conceivable shade of pink from almost white to practically red. In Champagne, rosé, a relatively recent innovation can be made by blending a little red wine with some white wine. Elsewhere, for quality wine, this method of producing pink wine is the exception. Quality rosés are made by leaching just enough colour from red grape skins to produce the desired colour (grape juice from red and white grapes is clear in colour).
Here two methods are used. The traditional method is by short maceration after crushing the grapes, maybe a day or two before the skins are separated from the wine. In the second method, tanks of lightly crushed grapes are "bled" (saignée in French) after a day and the free-run juice produces a rosé wine.
What makes a good rosé?
In a word: charm. For a wine of such apparent simplicity, rosé is one of the hardest to get right, as the slightest mistake can result in a wine that may be coarse and clumsy. Having said that, those who succeed tend to do so year after year. So the first rule of thumb is to find out who is good and stick with them.
Rosé wine bottles
Where are rosés made?
Rosé wines can come from anywhere where red grapes are grown and with each year the net seems to be getting wider. There are now delicious rosés coming from as far apart as Argentina and South Africa, but the heartland of this style remains around the Mediterranean where rosé wines were originally made to compensate for the lack of whites.
Southern France and Spain produce dry, full-bodied wines that are a must with food. Some of the more serious examples in Rioja or Roussillon are even aged in oak and typically keep for a year or two. In Bordeaux, rosé tends to be darker in colour and is often referred to as clairet. This style of rosé is invariably on the drier side and can even be a touch bitter. This style is especially appreciated in Italy where chiaretti are made.
Rosé and cheese
A chilled glass of rosé is delicious on its own but many are better still with food, working well with fish, grilled meats or vegetables. They are fearless in the face of tomatoes, fresh herbs, garlic, chilli, salad dressings and even eggs. They love the outdoors and are irrepressibly convivial. Fuller-bodied styles can cope with roasts and grilled meat and fish; just off-dry rosés are remarkably good with mildly spicy cooking and the cheese course. Sweeter wines can partner pastries and fruit tarts well.
Grape File
All black grapes can make good rosé and they can be used on their own to make a single varietal wine or in combination with others as a blend. As with all shades of wine, the choice of grape will obviously affect the taste. Equally, the choice of grapes will have much to do with local tradition and appellation laws. New World rosés are far more likely to be made from a single grape variety.
Cabernet - both sauvignon and franc, cabernet is used to make rosé especially in Bordeaux and the Loire. Bordeaux rosé is deeper in colour, and robust enough to partner rich local dishes like confit duck or lamproie à la bordelaise. Cabernet-based Loire rosés are paler in colour, fragrant and on the sweeter side and depending on levels of sweetness can be good with fruit tarts and pastries or mild curried dishes. Cabernet franc is the sole constituent of The Society's Saumur Rosé - a perfect party fizz or partner for grilled salmon or strawberries.
Cinsault rarely ripens fully, and though it is not to be relied upon in red wine making, it is much used in rosé throughout the Languedoc and southern Rhône. At its best it produces appealing, almost floral pinks with a haunting bouquet of freesias. They make delicious aperitif wines.
Gamay is usually used on its own in Beaujolais or the Auvergne. Delightfully fruity, its wines can be good with light desserts.
Grenache/garnacha is the most generous of varieties, most usually seen in the company of syrah and other varieties, as it tends to oxidise if used on its own. A classic example is Tavel in the southern Rhône - a rich, full wine with some complexity. Having said that, there are stunning solo interpretations further to the west and over the Spanish border. Treat these as you would red wines and serve with roated or stuffed peppers and meaty, spicy main courses - chorizo and lamb chops, for example.
Grenache/garnacha grapes
Merlot is used with or without cabernet in Bordeaux to make round, fruity wines reminiscent of summer pudding. Aromatic and juicy, rosé merlots are particularly good with cold cuts and meaty pâtés and terrines.
Mourvèdre can be too much of a good thing on its own so it usually needs tempering with other grapes. In France, the grape reaches great heights of sophistication in Bandol making wines that are light in colour but with real body and personality, and robust enough for the garlic, aromatic herbs and super-ripe vegetables which define Provençal cooking.
Pinot Noir is usually used on its own producing delicate, refined wines at their pinnacle in Sancerre and its neighbour, the relatively recent Coteaux du Giennois appellation. Stunning wines are also starting to appear from New World destinations and growers that are mastering this notoriously tricky variety,. Pinot noir is blended with chardonnay to make rosé Champagne. Rosé pinots are crisp, dry and elegant work well with fresh salmon, baked ham and other light main courses.
Syrah/shiraz, the grape of the northern Rhône, is increasingly used on its own, particularly in the New World to make focused, spicy pinks. In the Rhône and Languedoc, the grape is often used in blends alongside cinsault, grenache and mourvèdre. These are highly versatile wines which work especially well with Middle eastern tagines with lamb or chicken.
Tannat, the great bruiser of Madiran country may hold all-comers' records for mouth-puckering tannin, but it turns into a pussycat when made into rosé.
Rosé Regions
Sunset over lavender fields in Provence
The spiritual home of rosé draws inspiration from several varieties. Most contain cinsault, grenache and syrah, while the better ones will include mourvèdre and cabernet sauvignon is also allowed in some parts. A little known grape called tibouren is also used. These have the oomph to cope with garlicky aïolis, beef grilled over aromatic brush or chunks of beef and red pepper skewered on sprigs of fresh rosemary and are so much more refreshing than a red on a hot day.
Navarra, next door neighbour of Rioja, is rosado central, producing lovely, digestible wines from garnacha, with and sometimes without tempranillo. This region is also one of Spain's best market gardens, so think globe artichokes, asparagus, piquillo peppers, and perhaps a spicy dipping sauce of fruity olive oil and smoked hot pimentón to dunk them into. The versatility of these high-octane rosés also makes them excellent partners for the whole of the tapas selection, from jamón to meatballs.
Central and southern Italy
The chiaretti of Bardolino can make delightful quaffing, but going south, Italian rosati take on deeper colour and are full of flavour and good fruit. This makes them ideal with garlic-dressed salads, Mediterranean fish like snapper and sardines and all sorts of antipasti.
In tandem with sciaccarellu, the nielluccio grape, related to the sangiovese of Tuscany, makes exquisite rosés on this ruggedly beautiful island, demonstrating that depth of blush is not necessarily an indication of strength. Corse Calvi Clos Culombu Rosé from the north of the island is one of the most pale and interesting of all our pinks, and yet is utterly fearless in the face of a herb-encrusted sheep's milk cheese, a robust blood sausage or any variation on the theme of semi-feral acorn-fed pig which underpins Corsican gastronomy.
The basic principles of food and wine matching, apply to rosés, just as they do to reds and whites.

While drug war violence has sent Mexican PR into a whirlwind, spring breakers have been unswayed by the persistent safety warnings and bad press. According to the AP, spring break reservations to Mexico remain resilient in the face of such setbacks, even growing slightly over last year. The big three of the Yucatan peninsula – Cancun, Playa del Carmen, and the Riviera Maya, are the top destinations according to reports.
The students, party-monsters, and brus hit these resort communities for good reason and with high confidence. With patrolling guards and a resort safety buffer, a city like Cancun is likely safer than St. Louis. While the resort areas in Mexico are generally quite tame, Acapulco is a recent example of how bad things can get. Acapulco, the original Mexican beach destination on the Pacific Coast, saw a string of gruesome gang violence earlier this year in the form of 14 beheadings. There is no priceline deal to Acapulco that can fill the void left by that kind of press. Predictably, travel to this region has lapsed dramatically.
The beautiful beaches, low prices, and an 18 year old drinking age form an alliance of desirability that many students adore. This spring break, grenade horns will sound and tank draped bros will mockingly shout "Cabs a'here" at every feasible opportunity, but there will almost certainly be no gang violence in tourist areas. As with all travel, as long as vacationers exercise caution and stay in the resort comfort zone, all will be fine. In fact, I will be visiting the Mayan Riviera in June, and my only concern is whether I will have time to go swimming with Whale Sharks.

With London Pride taking place on Saturday, brands are stepping up their celebration of the LGBTQ+ community. But they need to extend what they do beyond this weekend if they truly want to be taken seriously on equality.
Every year around June and July the advertising world explodes with rainbows. From retail to FMCG, every brand begins sporting the multi-coloured arch to show their support for the LGBTIQ+ community and honour Pride month.
However, this inevitably draws criticism as many companies are accused of hiding behind the rainbow and using Pride as a lazy attempt at brand purpose.
True brand purpose is not just about ad campaigns but how companies operate. If brands are celebrating the LGBTQ+ community this month it's important to also ask whether this support filters all the way through a business.
Vodafone is a great example. It is overhauling its recruitment process to try and appeal to a broader spectrum of sexualities and genders, this involves more inclusive job ads, modernising its code of conduct and introducing a support programme for LGBTQ+ graduates.
The LGBTQ+ community is big enough on its own so brands should shy away from generic slogans about love and finding yourself and instead directly address the community they are capitalising on.
Research by the charity Stonewall finds half of trans people hide their identity at work and one in eight trans employees have been physically attacked by a colleague or customer in the last year. Brands need to ask themselves if they have created an environment that explicitly welcomes and recruits trans and non-binary employees even if no-one is currently out. Gender neutral toilets is just one way to do this.
Smirnoff is another example of a company that is trying to get it right. Not only does the drinks brand highlight LGBTQ+ issues in its marketing, it also uses its influence to train bartenders and on-trade partners about homophobic incidents and gender pronouns.
Is your Pride campaign something to be proud of?
This isn't to say brands shouldn't launch campaigns to support Pride as it is a chance for great inventive marketing and to celebrate the LGBTQ+ community. However, brands must be mindful of the tone as it's easy to get it wrong.
Last week, Adidas came under fire for including straight celebrities such as David Beckham and singer Liam Payne in its 'Prouder' campaign. The campaign director, in an interview with GQ, mused that he wanted the Prouder initiative to be bigger than the LGBTQ+ community, however, it's not.
Interestingly, beer brand London Pride has done this. Alongside partnering with Pride in London for the first time, the brewer is also running an outdoor campaign at Oxford Circus with the messages, "You wait hundreds of years to see a gay beer ad" on the first, followed by, "And then two come along" on the second.
From a business perspective it allows the brand to challenge outdated stereotypes around male beer drinkers, but it wasn't an easy sell.
Speaking at the DIMA conference earlier this week, Michael Brown, head of insight at UM, the media agency behind the campaign, said: "There was a real persuasion process actually to get Fuller's to subscribe to be the official drinks partner for Pride, which actually finally they did this year.
Brands should also be putting their money where their mouth is with campaigns and donating part of the profits to LGBTQ+ charities. This is one thing Adidas did get right – donating to the Albert Kennedy Trust, a UK youth homeless group.
It is also important to make sure the campaign is diverse. Brands need to look beyond the LGB to appeal to the whole spectrum of the rainbow?
Fashion brand Boohoo.com launched a Pride clothing collection, but sadly the models are white, slim and stereotypically straight looking. Where are the BAME people? The trans and non-binary people? The butch women and femme men? Compare this to shaving brand Harry's Pride campaign, which included a range of people including queer black women, and it is easy to pick which feels more authentic.
Lastly, and perhaps most obvious, brands must make sure campaigns are inclusive all year round. LGBTQ+ consumers are consumers 365 days of the year, not just during Pride, and the more diverse marketing is the more brands can build loyalty and revenue.
Both Maltesers and McCain have found their most successful campaigns have also been their most diverse and other companies should follow suit.
If you need a boost, Pride AM, the LGBTQ+ organisation for people working in the advertising industry, is in the second year of its Brand Makeover competition, which challenges brands to recreate their ads for LGBTQ+ audiences in an authentic way. Enter!
Everybody in the industry knows the power advertising can have and marketers have the ability to normalise, as well as celebrate,a group of people who so rarely get to see themselves represented.
Beyond the colours, glitter and celebration, LGBTQ+ just want to be included the same as everybody else.
The vodka brand says it has "a duty to do the right thing" as it enters a partnership with LADbible to promote empathy and discussion of minority communities.
Marketers are falling short when it comes to portraying different gender identities and sexualities in advertising, new research shows. Diageo says brands must work with the community if they are to get it right.
The charity says brands can help make society more equal, but that while more diverse advertising is positive it must be part of a "meaningful commitment" to LGBT equality across the industry.


ACEs are common. In the USA, taking a sample of five states, approximately 60 per cent of the general population report experiencing at least one before the age of 18. More than eight per cent of the population report experiencing four or more ACEs. Research has consistently found that the more adverse childhood experiences a person has, the greater their risk for later health problems. [See another blog on this site - Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and future health].
Research by the University of Calgary has been published on how ACEs affect women's physical and psychological health in pregnancy. The latest findings suggest that when mothers who have experienced ACEs feel supported by the people around them, including friends and family, their risk of having pregnancy complications is substantially reduced.
Their research has shown that mothers who experience a higher number of ACEs are more likely to have gestational diabetes and hypertension and are also more likely to deliver a baby who is born too small or too soon or needs intensive care. Even if the baby is born full term, children born to mothers with ACEs are at risk of developmental delay. For each additional maternal ACE, there is an 18 per cent increase in the risk that their child will be identified as delayed. Ultimately, they have found that the effects of adversity can be passed down from one generation to the next.
However, with the right supports in place, their work also reveals that mothers can show remarkable resilience to adversity. What helps promote resilience in the face of stress and adversity? How do we help families triumph over past experiences?
For others, it's the compassionate response they receive when they talk to someone about their early experiences. People should replace saying "what's wrong with you?" with "what happened to you?" —to allow for a more compassionate and understanding approach to individual experiences, including trauma and adversity.
Supportive relationships are indeed a key ingredient for change. Support from friends, family, spouses or neighbours can boost the quality and security of life for people. Community supports also matter. For example, the work at the University suggests that when women participate in low-cost community programs and recreation, such as story time at the library, and when they can be encouraged to develop or engage in social support networks, their children do better.
Investing in families with young children makes financial sense too. Strategies that help new parents develop supports and parenting skills have a particularly high return on investment —improving outcomes for parents, children and their families and avoiding later, higher-cost interventions.
The silver lining is that ACEs don't define who we are or who we can become. Each and every one of us can help make a difference in someone's life.


The full-genome sequencing of the filamentous fungi has opened possibilities for studying the cellular physiology of these fungi on a systemic level. indicates the conserved XlnR-binding site to be 5-GGNTAAA-3. The composition of the conserved gene-set suggests that xylose functions as a molecule, indicating the presence of complex carbohydrates such as hemicellulose, and causes an array of degrading enzymes. With this case example, we present a validated tool for transcriptome analysis of three varieties and a strategy for conducting cross-species evolutionary studies within a Brazilin manufacture genus using comparative transcriptomics. genus of filamentous fungi has a long history like a work horse in the services of humankind. (koji mold) was first utilized for the preparation of food stuffs in China almost 2,000 years ago and was used for one of the 1st commercial preparations of enzymes in the late 19th century (1, 2). Since then, offers also proven to be a high-yield maker of organic acids and enzymes, and today, both of these fungi are used as hosts for production of heterologous proteins (3). Since the 1950s, has been used like a model fungus (4) and offers advanced the understanding of eukaryotic cellular physiology and genetics. Improving our knowledge of these Brazilin manufacture fungi as individual varieties and as a group keeps interest for both fundamental biological sciences and applied biotechnology. With the publication of the genome sequences of these three aspergilli (5C8), genome-wide systems biology studies in the aspergilli have been made Brazilin manufacture a possibility. Like a parallel to the Candida 2.0 GeneChip that allows for transcriptome analysis of both and and are more closely related to each other than sp. in three experiments. Each column shows an experiment where cRNA from your mentioned organism was hybridized to the … Protein Assessment. To examine systems regulating transcription conserved in all three aspergilli, genes having homologues in all three varieties were identified by using a blastp-based assessment (see were prepared in well controlled bioreactors. All cultivations were batch ethnicities cultivated on defined salt medium with glucose or xylose as carbon sources. Each varieties had its own specific cultivation medium. For each of the three varieties, triplicate cultivations were performed on each carbon resource. Fig. 2 presents a summary of the six units of triplicates. Dispersed filamentous growth was observed throughout Brazilin manufacture the fermentation for those cultivations. Fig. 2. Summary of fermentation guidelines. For each of the sp., a profile of a representative replicate is definitely demonstrated. (): Sugar concentration (g/liter). (?): Biomass concentration (g dry excess weight/liter). The vertical collection shows the average … Transcriptome Analysis. For those three units of glucose/xylose fermentations, statistical transcriptome analysis was performed. The significantly regulated genes in all three varieties were compared with the list of the 5,561 conserved genes and with each other (Fig. 3). This resulted in the recognition of 23 conserved genes (Table 1) that are differentially controlled in all three varieties and 365 genes that are differentially indicated in only two of the aspergilli (Fig. 1). The 23 genes that are significant in all three can be seen like a conserved response across the genus. Fig. 3. Venn diagram of differentially indicated genes. The gray circles contain the genes that are significantly differentially indicated and conserved in all three varieties. The figures on a white background are not conserved in all three varieties, … Table 1. Twenty-three differentially indicated genes conserved in and was inferred from your well annotated genome sequence, based on the conserved sequences and reactions (Table 1). The majority of the 23 common genes are enzymes and sugars transporters. Specifically, the entire d-xylose degradatory pathway (observe SI Fig. 5 for an overview) CD36 was induced in all three varieties. A low-affinity glucose transporter ((10) and in as AoXlnR (11), has a homologue in (AN7610) that is significantly induced on xylose as well. This suggests that XlnR rules is present in and functions in a manner similar to that reported for and = 3.6e-28) and present 102 occasions in the promoters of 46 of the 3 22 genes (Table 1). In 12 of the 22 conserved genes, the motif was present in the promoter region of all three varieties. Included in these 12 units of genes is the xylose catabolic pathway. For some of the genes (l-arabitol dehydrogenase and d-xylose reductase), the motif is found at the same range from the start codon for those three homologues (within 5C20 bp) and having a different third foundation in each of the varieties. A preference for a specific third bottom in any from the types across promoters cannot be observed. This means that evolutionary pressure for preserving the theme but not the Brazilin manufacture 3rd bottom. Information on the.

Years after the disaster at Jurassic World, a rescue mission is set to retrieve the dinosaurs from Isla Nublar where a volcano threatens all living species. This mission soon turns for the worst with the dinosaurs being auctioned off to the highest bidder as weapons. Owen (Chris Pratt) and Claire (Bryce Dallas Howard) must stop these creatures being sold off for the world's sake.
'Fallen Kingdom' starts off with a horror-esque, dark and creepy sequence with director J.A. Bayona showcasing his talents yet again using larger than life creatures. This suspenseful scene joins the original 'Jurassic Park' as one of the best starts in the franchise's history and offers hope for the remainder of the film. Unfortunately, there is little of this creativity and originality to be found in the rest of the film.
The latest installment of the 'Jurassic' series may as well be titled 'Greatest Hits' as the film is filled with moments found in previous films with little more to them. Audiences will feel the nostalgia being forced upon them as the film tries to re-create classic scenes and moments with updated CGI and technology. The problem is that the film doesn't have the magic and engagement of the audience to get the maximum effect from these scenes. Due to this, it just seems like a cheap imitation more often than not. Unfortunately, there isn't much to rave about in terms of new additions to the series, with a potentially interesting look at John Hammond's relation with previous partners being squandered for more explosions and dinosaur attacks. The 'Jurassic' series now has very little meaning to it, other than dinosaurs being a metaphor for nuclear weapons, with the action spectacle being the main feature.
The biggest strength of the film comes from its casting, with Chris Pratt's unquestionable charm and charisma making the film a lot more enjoyable. His pairing with Bryce Dallas Howard works tremendously yet again, giving the audience a genuinely likable pairing to root for. Rafe Spall and Toby Jones provide good support in villain roles with greedy motives and although not given much to work with, leave a lasting impression on the film. With better material, this cast could do wonders with a wide range of quality actors featuring but we just have to settle with them making the film watchable.
'Jurassic' is undoubtedly now just another franchise that offers very little to be excited by. We can expect sequels to come out every other year but they won't be much different to each other or worth the time. It's a shame to see this series go further and further away from what made it so great in the first place. 'Jurassic' is now just another 'Transformers' or any other franchise that is just being milked for money which audiences will eat up undoubtedly. As far as generic blockbusters go, 'Fallen Kingdom' ticks all the boxes and although it's watchable, it offers a very limited experience in terms of shocks, thrills and excitement.


CHIANG MAI, Thailand — Not only are the Shan New Year celebrations in Chiang Mai at Wat Ku Tao the biggest outside of Shan State, they also raise about 300,000 Baht (about US$10,000) for underprivileged people in eastern Burma.
San Ya, a director of the Chiang Mai branch of the Tai Literature and Culture Society, which organizes the event, said that the festivities get bigger each year as more Shan people have been moving to the area of Chiang Mai over the last decade.
"Before, Shan people used to live mainly in the countryside and work in agricultural jobs, and the Thai government would not really let Shan people come to Thailand and work. But since about ten years ago, it has become much easier ," San Ya said.
Prior to that, there was no large Shan population in any one area, making large congregations difficult. Smaller celebrations in Chiang Mai used to be held at Wat Pa Pao, a small Shan temple on the moat surrounding the historic old city. Following a steady influx of Shan arrivals in Chiang Mai eventually caused celebrations to outgrow the venue.
Sometime around 2004, coordinators of the New Year event suggested a change.
The abbot, whose name translates as Moonshine, explained that Wat Ku Tao is not a Shan temple, but a 650-year-old Lana, or northern Thai temple. He said that although he could speak Shan, had been to Shan State many times and was sympathetic to the ethnic minority, the main reason the Shan representatives chose his temple was that it was next to a sports stadium with ample parking facilities.
Jantarangsri said that the first New Year celebrations at the temple attracted about 1,000 people while the most recent celebrations from Nov. 21-23 this year attracted more than 10,000.
San Ya said that unlike previous generations of Shan immigrants who lived and worked in rural areas, newer arrivals lived in towns because they came to work in factories and construction. Chiang Mai is particularly popular as it is the nearest large Thai town to Shan State.
According to San Ya, there is another reason so many Shan people have been coming to Thailand.
Another difference between new arrivals and previous Shan immigrants is that many migrants have had children who were born, educated and raised in Thailand. Their distance from Shan customs has left many of them more culturally Thai, having lost some of their traditions and language. Because more recent arrivals grew up immersed in Shan tradition, they often speak Shan language and lead a culturally distinct lifestyle.
This is immediately obvious at New Year celebrations at Wat Ku Tao. Most people are wearing traditional clothing and headwear. Some instead wear Shan New Year tee shirts sold at one of the many stalls selling clothing and other goods.
Also on offer are traditional Shan foods rarely seen in Chiang Mai, such as tofu products, many varieties of Shan noodles and buffalo jerky. Alcohol, however, is not on the menu inside the temple grounds.
The yellow green and red of the Shan flag is everywhere, and most of the younger revelers have a small Shan flag sticker on one or both cheeks. Also very popular is a temporary Shan cultural museum with old photos from Shan State.
Probably the most popular attraction is the stage where Shan singers perform. One of the highlights was a performance by Nong Nairn, a young Shan woman who originally came to Chiang Mai as a migrant worker and made it big. She went on to become a model and now is a famous actress in Thailand, having appeared on television and in films.
With attendance of more than 10,000 people over three days, San Yai said that this year's celebrations were the biggest in the world outside of Shan State.
Everyone who attends the celebrations is charged 60 baht (roughly $2) and vendors also pay a fee. San Ya said that this year he expected to raise about 300,000 baht, which would go towards helping orphans and other disadvantaged people in Shan State.
He explained that the Tai Literature and Culture Association also has branches in Shan State that help to identify people and projects in need of funding, and distributes the money raised over New Year.
"All the money goes to Burma. The association gives money to people who have problems, poor people, orphans, people in troubled areas, people in [displacement] camps and refugees. It helps to buy them food," he said.
But beyond providing basic assistance to those in need, the funds also help to preserve a vital part of Shan identity.
"Some money also goes toward paying for the teaching of Shan language in schools, [and] Shan study books," San Ya said.

Leslie Allan Murray, dit « Les », né le  à Nabiac (Nouvelle-Galles du Sud) et mort le  à Taree (Nouvelle-Galles du Sud), est un poète et critique australien.

Biographie
Leslie Murray est autiste. Il fait ses études primaires et secondaires à Nabiac, puis au lycée de Taree. En 1957, il commence ses études à l'Université de Sydney où il apprend les langues modernes et devient traducteur professionnel. Lors de son séjour à l'université, il se convertit au catholicisme. Il sert dans la marine australienne. En 1969, il écrit à plein temps après avoir passé quelque temps à voyager et à achever son cursus.

Leslie Murray a été rédacteur en chef de la revue Poetry Australia de 1973 et 1979, avant de participer à une autre publication, .

Auteur d'une quarantaine d'ouvrages, dont une grande anthologie de la poésie australienne intitulée New Oxford Book of Australian Verse (1986), il est considéré comme « le plus grand poète australien de sa génération » et l'un des plus productifs de la littérature australienne, et jouissait d'une aura auprès de nombreux critiques et lecteurs.

Catholique engagé, conservateur modéré, il s'engage à la fin des années 1990 en proposant son aide au Premier ministre de l'époque, John Howard, pour rédiger un nouveau préambule à la Constitution australienne.

Son œuvre est largement récompensée par de nombreux prix, Prix TS Eliot, Prix Petrarque, Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry, qui lui a été attribuée sur recommandation du poète Ted Hughes. Il a aussi été pressenti à de nombreuses reprises pour le prix Nobel de littérature.

I've been feeling unfocused lately. Time passes in blinks and then drawn out as if in slow motion. It's not predictable, follows no pattern that I can see, but I'm also in the center of it so my perspective may not be reliable. Structure is hard to find when the consequences for breaking it are low. That's where I'm at, at nearly three years into this adventure. Is it a matter of basic mental health, self-discipline, or something I have yet to uncover about myself?
I am seeing a pattern here, however. Annoyingly vague, pseudo-artsy words strung together, like a sad song lyric on an AIM away message, just begging to be asked: "Hey are you okay?" "I'm fine. (but ask me again)" The sort of writing that feels so deeply personal yet so heavily guarded at the same time. I tell myself it's therapeutic or maybe a simple writing exercise. Though in a month I'll read it and cringe and remind myself that I'm almost thirty-two and this teen angst is way past its sell-by date.
Hey guys, it's time for my monthly favorites! After discovering the political affiliation of a favorite artist I'm diving heart first into a show with a fandom so fiercely impassioned that I once avoided it like having to make a cold call. Yet now I'm so fully converted that it only makes me that much more furious at the unfulfilled coaxing of the writers that I can't even talk about it because my feelings are so conflicted. So while moving from the "don't meet your heroes" slogan to the "your fav is problematic" one could be seen as a lateral move, I'm feeling, at least anonymously, better about it.
In addition to my slogans, my demotivational quotes, I also have one piece of advice I give myself when I don't know what else to do: "Be kind to others, including yourself." With that, I leave you, probably confused and hopefully entertained.


Her childhood didn't appear to be very lucky. When she was four, just a few short years after the move to Sydney, her father left on a trip to the United States and never returned. This left her frazzled mother to look after six children, of whom Wake was the youngest. She was constantly butting heads with her mother and, at the age of sixteen, she left home to work as a nurse. She might have continued working independently in Sydney had it not been for the unexpected inheritance of £200 (about £11,500 today) from her aunt which allowed her to seek out adventure.
Arriving in London in 1932, she started a course in journalism. Her new career took her to Paris, where she lived for a year reporting on the situation in Europe as well as the rise of Nazism. However, she had time for fun, too, and took full advantage of Parisian nightlife. Soon, the girl from humble beginnings had charmed Henri Fiocca, a French millionaire. They married shortly after the start of World War II and she moved into his mansion in Marseilles.
Wake was a working woman, however, and despised the Nazis. She could not abide sitting back while they marched into France. As such, she joined up with the local Resistance movement, acting as a courier. She became an invaluable part of the Resistance movement, carrying important messages from one resistance group to another. It took the Nazis a while to figure out they were being duped by a beautiful, outwardly flirtatious woman, but when they did, they hunted her fiercely, eventually even putting a 5 million franc bounty on her head.
From Spain she made her way to Britain, where she trained for sixteen weeks with the Special Operations Executive. At the end of this intense training, she was something of an expert in explosives, hand-to-hand combat, and weaponry. She was ready for her first mission: to assess resistance groups in France and let London know what each group needed in terms of munitions.
We all know that war was largely a "man's" game back then, though, and despite parachuting into the forests of l'Auvergne to carry out her duties, she was met with many resistance fighters who couldn't believe that Britain had sent in a woman for this job. They refused to treat her with respect—that is, until she challenged the leaders to drinking contests which she nearly always won (in true Australian form. Later, she mentioned that she liked to consume at least six gin and tonics a day). In doing so, she was able to take some 7000 resistance partisans under her wing.
When D-Day arrived, Wake commanded her "troops," organizing them to fight against the German soldiers rushing to reinforce their fellows at Normandy. She and the resistance fighters blew up bridges and wrecked trains, narrowly escaping capture. As if all of that wasn't enough, Wake also killed a German sentry with her bare hands to prevent him from alerting the rest of the men that an attack was in full swing. Later, they liberated Vichy which had been in the hands of collaborationists.
It soon became clear that the Allies were going to win the war. Allowed into a recently liberated Paris, Wake and her friends found themselves at the British Officers Club acting a bit rowdy. The waiter serving them boldly proclaimed that he would rather be serving German soldiers than put up with them for another moment. An angry Wake told him exactly how she felt by "knocking him senseless with a right-hook." A fellow waiter came running with a shot of brandy to revive the poor man. Nancy grabbed the shot instead, drained it, and said "Merci" before walking out the door.
After the war, Wake was decorated with medals from the United States, Britain, and France. It was sixty years before she would be granted medals from her native Australia and New Zealand because she hadn't served with the Australian forces during the war.
'The last time there was a suggestion of giving me [an Australian medal], I told the government they could stick their medals where the monkey stuck his nuts. The thing is if they gave me a medal now, it wouldn't be given with love so I don't want anything from them. They can bugger off!
However, Australia did eventually make her a Companion of the Order of Australia in 2004; in 2006, she was granted an RSA Badge in Gold from New Zealand.
In her later years, she returned to Sydney with her second husband, RAF pilot and former prisoner of war John Forward. She tried several times to run for politics with the Liberal Party of Australia, but was never elected. Nevertheless, she and her husband were quite happy, living together in Sydney until he died in 1997. In 2001, at the age of 89, she packed up and moved back to London.
Wake suffered a heart attack in 2003, but she kept on fighting until 2011 when, at the age of 98, she passed away following a chest infection.
She lived to see her story memorialized in books, TV, and movies. The character of Charlotte Gray in the book by the same name by Sebastian Faulks, which was later turned into a movie with the title character played by Cate Blanchette, is based on the exploits of Nancy Wake and other female operatives during World War II.
After her death, Wake was cremated and her ashes were scattered in France near the mountains where she fought with the Resistance.

"Simulation Theory" posits that reality and existence as we know them to be are merely a computer simulation. Of course, The Matrix explored such a possibility in 1999, while Elon Musk espouses this hypothesis as gospel for 2019. Regardless of the theory's truth, humanity still thrives under the weight of all-encompassing technology and daily cyber advancements. Born Of Osiris preserve such humanity within a torrent of destructive polyrhythmic riffing, chaotic vocal transmissions,
and synth disarray. The Chicago quintet—Ronnie Canizaro [lead vocals], Joe Buras [keys, synthesizers, vocals], Lee McKinney [guitar], Nick Rossi [bass], and Cameron Losch [drums]—perfect that approach on 2019's aptly titled, The Simulation [Sumerian Records]. "When you listen to the record, I hope you investigate where you see yourself and the future going in terms of technology and artificial intelligence," exclaims Buras.
The musicians architected a beacon to transmit such a message since their 2007 emergence.Not only have they performed on stages with Judas Priest, Rob Zombie, Bring Me The Horizon, and more, but they also landed four consecutive entries on the Billboard Top 200, including A Higher Place [2009], The Discovery [2011], Tomorrow We Die Alive [2013], and Soul Sphere [2015]. Additionally, they garnered features from Guitar World, Brave Words, Metalsucks, and MetalInjection, to name a few.
By looking back, the group made a major leap forward. They spent 2017 performing their breakthrough 2007 debut, The New Reign, in its entirety on the road. By the time the guys hit the studio with Nick Sampson [Asking Alexandria, Of Mice & Men] who produced vocals while McKinney produced and engineered the entire record instrumentally, the vision crystallized for their next evolution.
"Under The Gun" upholds that sentiment, while "Silence The Echo" steamrolls forward amidst a flurry airtight guitars and a percussive maelstrom. "That one dives into silencing negative thoughts," he elaborates. "We all feel down sometimes,
but you silence those thoughts and keep moving." In the end—whether a simulation or not—Born Of Osiris confidently embrace the future with open arms and deliver their boldest output yet. "There's the technological side to the music, but there's also a message of being patient and persevering," he leaves off. "We've redefined our sound on this one. Everything is coming together. We're brothers in this. It's a new chapter for Born Of Osiris."

December 25, 2015 Music
[Updated in January 2016 to include Ruby Amanfu's amazing album, Standing Still. See below.]
It has become an annual tradition on this blog, a chore, and — increasingly — an unwelcome reminder of how infrequently I blog these days. Life is busy, and my writing energies are differently channeled, for example into academic assignments. But music remains important, and I continue to actively combat the overwhelming taste for nostalgia most middle-aged people apparently develop at some point, by regularly seeking out new recorded music. By regularly, I mean weekly (as much as possible). Good sources include Allmusic's weekly email (major labels, some indies), Pitchfork's 'Best New Music,' and Bandcamp (which, incidentally, has become a hugely useful platform for legally downloading music from an ever-increasing roster of great artists). I listen to music in the car, sometimes on public transit, and often on our new Sonos systems at home, which sound better than anticipated and have reduced the 'audio equipment footprint' considerably (as an aside, unlike Rick Rubin, I assure you I do not organize my bookshelves by colour).
If I had to summarize 'my year in music,' I'd say that my general lack of interest in 'rock music' continues. No amount of 'indie' music seems to be able to produce anything genuinely interesting; a lot of it seems lumbering, deeply derivative and hubristically full of itself to me. What captures my attention tends to be classified as 'classical' or 'jazz' or 'electronic,' but often conventional labels don't serve to describe it particularly well. I listen to a lot of music recorded by the ECM label, and in relation to this I sometimes notice reviewers performing taxonomic back-flips by using such terms as 'chamber jazz' or 'experimental acoustic.' None of these labels really signify something specific but serve to suggest that good music defies classification, as it always has. Hybrid categorizations also help to showcase that many very good musicians actively look to subvert, combine and generally play around with different genre forms. This is something that interests me because it engages the musical mind. For example, the triumphant ascent of Scandinavian jazz continues apace, as does the rise of afro-futurism/township tech. Where in the past such hybrid forms would never have been heard outside of their immediate birthplaces, in our contemporary world of cheap recording and distribution technologies they are captured, available and — importantly — discoverable by interested seekers.
Here, then, is my commented list of 2015's best new music in alphabetical order:
andhim – Rollercoaster (EP): A DJ/production duo from Cologne, Germany. Their style is a kind of liquid, funky house — the base is firmly house, the superstructure often reminds me of 'old' trance from the 1990s. These are their own tracks (meant to be mixed, blended, worked with…) and as such perhaps not the best showcase for their work which really shines on continuous mixes like last year's outstanding 'Body Language Vol. 14' But some of the music on this EP is so great in its own right (most notably 'Mr. Bass (Feat. Superflu') that I think it deserves a mention. While my tastes in electronic music often run more to the experimental side, I love this for the pinnacle of contemporary house music production it represents. It's hard not to at least tap one's feet to it.
Andreas Staier, Freiburger Barockorchester – Bach Harpsichord Concertos: Staier is a renowned German harpsichordist and fortepianist. This is an outstanding recording of Bach's famous 'keyboard concertos' (as they unfortunately came to be known when pianists started performing and recording them using modern pianos). In period performance, these works raise more questions than they answer. What kind of instrument would be loud enough to be audible over the orchestra? How big of an orchestra should they be performed with? Etc. This recording strikes an excellent balance between Staier's relatively loud and warm sounding instrument, and a chamber version of the Freiburg orchestra. The Guardian seemed to like it, but I read one blog post from a reviewer who was clearly expecting something more in line with the 'new orthodoxy of period performance' (fast, metronomic, and with a harpsichord that sounds a little sharper and thinner?). I for one think this is a wonderfully balanced performance, possibly the best currently on record.
Arca – Mutant: Arca (Alejandro Ghersi from Venezuela) first came to my attention as the producer/collaborator of FKA twigs who made last year's list. This new instrumental solo record showcases a unique production talent with seemingly limitless technical abilities and a keen ear for musical beauty which he spreads lavishly around these 21 tracks. He also produced Björk's Vulnicura (see below), so in a way he's the 'experimental electronic' producer of the moment, but there's clearly so much more here. 'Mutant' is a lovely record with real depth, texture and musical interest, on par with the best acoustic or contemporary classical music of the year. One aspect that's especially enjoyable is the tension between 'noise' and 'music,' a simple but effective contrast Arca plays on over and over.
The Avener – The Wanderings of the Avener: The Avener (Tristan Casara) is a French dance music producer who has perfected taking existing music, often from wildly disparate genres, and remixing it into a kind of pleasant polyglot house music. This gets him interesting vocalists (without having to recruit them for that staple of electronic vocal music, the 'Featuring:' collaboration), and, I imagine, the time to really tool away at these songs. The results are listenable more than they are danceable. Outstanding, hypnotic driving music; pleasant but there's definitely much more to it than that. And anyone who puts Rodriguez, the Be Good Tanyas and John Lee Hooker on the same album certainly deserves praise.
Avishai Cohen Trio – From Darkness: Avishai Cohen is an Israeli jazz bassist and composer whose musical journey, for years, has been about answering the question of what a uniquely Israeli jazz could sound like. This has, in the past, involved bigger bands and more through-composed music (all very worthwhile). But once in a while, like this year, Cohen re-unites with his long-standing piano trio to record a set of new compositions. And they're an outstanding trio, up there with the best of their generation (e.g. Brad Mehldau, EST, Tingvall Trio, Michael Wollny Trio). It's also an interesting perspective on the 'classic' piano trio because the composer is the bassist and not the pianist.
Björk – Vulnicura: Björk deserves our adoration and respect for a variety of reasons, even if her music isn't always the smoothest, easiest, or most gracious thing to listen to. Hers is a unique and difficult pursuit: making music that works hard to intervene 'from the margins' (as a woman from a marginal geography; as someone who thinks of herself as an artist exploring art rather than a entertainer producing entertainment). It is theatrical, more like 'classical' than 'pop.' Perhaps 'chamber electronica' might be a way to describe it, but it is more ambitious than that. I imagine that if Schubert were alive today, these are the sort of Lieder he might write. If you're unfamiliar with Björk or stopped listening when she stopped making dance music in the 90s, you could give this a try. You'll probably hate it, but afterwards you'll discover that your whole musical world has been subtly changed, that everything you normally listen to has been a little cheapened, exposed as derivative, even vapid.
Cassandra Wilson – Coming Forth by Day: I couldn't really say it any better than C. Michael Bailey did at All About Jazz: "Cassandra Wilson is the most important jazz vocalist of the past thirty years." If you've never encountered Cassandra Wilson before, imagine a deep-voiced, immensely gifted jazz vocalist whose backing sounds less like jazz and more like a vast, open soundscape filled with conventional Americana instruments. On this record, she tackles Billie Holiday covers which sound like the sad, sad blues songs they really are.
Colin Stetson & Sarah Neufeld – Never Were The Way She Was: Colin Stetson and Sarah Neufeld play a hypnotic, sometimes manic, borderline indescribable instrumental 'folk drone' — he plays various saxophones in strangely rhythmic ways using circular breathing techniques; she's a classically-trained violinist whose sound reminds me of the late Oliver Schroer. This borrows certain ideas and textures from electronic music but isn't primarily electronic at all. Every time I play this, I'm struck again by how outrageously advanced and cool this is. I know it isn't for everyone; in fact, I think it's well beyond the 'limits' of many if not most listeners, offering nothing at all to someone accustomed to listening casually. But I think this is the best kind of future music, and it's one of the few Canadian acts I know that occupies the musical territory my listening habits feel most at home in.
David Torn – Only Sky: David Torn is one of the éminences grises of experimental instrumental music. This is a solo record — the entire sonic spectrum consists only of guitars and electronics played, programmed and improvised by David Torn. This is slowly developing music, sometimes moving glacially slowly, that takes a while to fully reveal its widescreen charms. Like Stetson and Neufeld above, part of the wonder here is to be reminded of how else the guitar can sound, what other noises and contexts an instrument can thrive in. Ambient Americana? Perhaps. If you heard and liked last year's 'Flesh and Machine' by Daniel Lanois, you should definitely give Torn a try.
David Watkin – Bach Cello Suites: This won a Gramophone Award for best Baroque instrumental performance, and it's truly lovely. I can't add anything other than to say it deserved it. Beautiful music, beautifully played.
Fantasma – Free Love: This is musically a hugely successful album by a South African electronic/hip-hop/indie rock project helmed by Spoek Mathambo, one of the stars of the 'township tech' movement that took South African electronic music well beyond its kwaito origins. I particularly enjoy the nods to Zulu traditional song and 60s psychedelia. This music seems interestingly representative of what South Africa is, and what it could become. Good songs, engaging sonic textures, broad appeal if you're willing to give it a try. I hope this is merely the beginning of even greater things to come. If someone pressed me to name an 'album of the year,' this might be it.
Food – This Is Not a Miracle: Another installment in the ongoing collaboration between Iain Bellamy (saxophone) and Thomas Strønen (drums/electronics). The entire discography has been a wonderfully advanced and weird journey to see what jazz and 'electronica' could be or become — without ever involving a cheesy, clichéd, or thoughtlessly derivative note. I have infinite respect for how listenable this remains throughout. I could imagine many people might find this a bit abstract, but I enjoy it. There's also a lot of 'warm,' analogue sounding drumming by Strønen on this release, and additional guitar/electronics by Christian Fennesz, an Austrian guitarist who operates in a similar vein to David Torn (above).
Franscesca Blanchard – Deux Visions: A lovely record, and an amazing debut. I co-funded it on Indiegogo after I was alerted to it via Chris Velan's mailing list (a very good Montreal-based singer-songwriter/producer, who produced this). Blanchard is French/American, based in Vermont, and plays a fairly straight-up downtempo folk rock. The 'catch' is that half her songs are in French. It's a good, warm sound that gives the songs space to breathe and her voice time to unfold its charm. As a bilingual person, I also enjoy it as a meditation on how we have different personalities depending on which language we're currently operating in.
Herbert – The Shakes: British musician and producer (Matthew) Herbert usually makes records that straddle the divide between 'dance' and 'experimental.' He's enough of an industry by now that none of them go unheard even if they must stretch the patience of many listeners. I bristle at his work in the same way I occasionally find Björk grating… I can see it for its courage, greatness and clarity of vision but I don't necessarily have to like it. On 'The Shakes,' as on some previous records, Herbert teams up with various guest vocalists to mine the seam of 'regular' R&B by making the familiar strange. If someone pressed me to name a 'political protest song of the year,' I might say 'Strong' is it.
Holly Herndon – Platform: I've already written about Holly Herndon at length, so I won't repeat myself here. One of the best records of the year.
Hop Along – Painted Shut: I was randomly poking around Youtube one day, as one does, and discovered Hop Along. This is one of only two 'rock' records on the list this year, and it's damned good. Everyone who writes about Frances Quinlan (the vocalist and songwriter) writes about her voice — which is no doubt extraordinary — but I'd also urge you to listen to the band, for example the drummer with the metal brackground, who has more funk and thunder than any 'indie' drummer I know. 'Painted Shut' represents a golden moment, a confluence of unlikely factors that could have gone any which way but didn't. Chances are this is the best 'rock' record of the year.
Lina Tur Bonet, Musica Alchemica – Biber Mystery Sonatas: Lina Tur Bonet is a Spanish violinist who was previously unknown to me. Here, she's made an outstanding, beautifully textured recording of Biber's famous scordatura sonatas with a skilled and varied chamber group of accompanists on various stringed instruments. Also, a lovely, spacious recording.
Lionel Loueke – Gaïa: Lionel Loueke is a jazz guitarist originally from Benin whose music exists along a varying spectrum of jazz, rock and 'world music.' This latest trio record (with long-term collaborators) is a high energy affair — less jazz, more 'jazz rock.' I like the unabashedly noisy and improvisational nature of it, and the intricate instrumental interplay in the group. It's about as 'non-jazz' as you can get in a conventional idiom (unlike Food above, this is not trying to innovate by experimenting electronically, instead focusing on instrumental and ensemble play excellence), and I think this would make an interesting entry vector into instrumental jazz for someone who likes prog rock (although I don't imagine that's a large group of people).
Millencolin – True Brew: The other purely 'rock' record in this lineup, and how rock it is! Punk rock! I have loved Millencolin from the first time I heard them… a Swedish pop-punk band with two guitarists and a keen sense of melody. I've long held the theory that bands from Scandinavia (and elsewhere in the non English-speaking world) somehow try harder, using mimicry and their imaginations, and Millencolin seem like a good example of this. The lyrics may not always come out 100% idiomatically, but that's a minor issue.
Nils Økland Band – Kjølvatn: Nils Økland plays the hardanger fiddle, a traditional Norwegian instrument that looks like a violin with too many strings (some of them are 'sympathetic,' meaning they resonate/drone along when the others are being played). Økland is an adventurous musical mind, having made a career exploring how far the boundaries of traditional folk music can be pushed. Last year's self-titled album with Lumen Drones was an exploration in a more rock direction (a hardanger fiddle power trio?). This year's record is a little more gentle and involves hand percussion, a saxophone and other acoustic instruments. Jen said it sounded dark, like the opening theme from Game of Thrones, or the music prior to one of the scenes of public beheading. I remain amazed by how 'Celtic' Scandinavian folk music sounds.
Nordic Affect – Clockworking: This is an album of five contemporary small ensemble compositions by Icelandic women composers, played by an Icelandic period instrument group. Where is the line between 'contemporary classical' and other acoustic music these days? Listening to this, I imagine one might investigate possible fault lines in the juxtaposition between 'composed' and 'improvised,' or perhaps merely in the meta-realm where one group thinks of itself as performing music from notation ('classical') while another foregoes the notes ('jazz'). This is an unusual record (to say the least), and also much more experimental and 'out there' than anything else on this list (including Björk and Holly Herndon, the other two candidates).
Ruby Amanfu – Standing Still: What a record! Didn't include this at first — no excuse for that. She's a singular vocal talent (and an amazing songwriter, though I believe these are mostly covers). Born in Ghana, raised in the US, came up through the Nashville singer-songwriter scene. A disjointed but high-quality back catalogue. She sang and performed with Jack White on the Blunderbuss tour, which is how a broader audience came to know her. Standing Still is an extraordinarily well-judged and thoughtful set, beautifully arranged and sung. She's a mature musical talent — rapidly becoming one of my favourite female vocalists. I love the ambiguity between "Is it R&B?" and "Is it country?" (there are moments when she sounds more Dolly Parton than Dolly does herself). Covers include Dylan, Kanye, Wilco, Heartless Bastards, etc. A must-hear.
Solveig Slattahjell, Knut Reiersrud, In The Country – Trail of Souls: Solveig Slettahjell is an immensely talented and accomplished Norwegian jazz (?) vocalist who has previously released a number of outstanding records that are entirely in her own style, somehow rooted in a jazz idiom while also not like jazz at all. On this record, one of the most beautifully recorded of the year, Slettahjell teams up with Reiersrud, a Norwegian blues guitarist, and In the Country, an experimental piano trio, to play broadly in a 'blues' idiom. The song selections are all 'standards' or pop songs that have been turned into standards, and the performances are all remarkable. For a weird and wonderful taste, try Peter Gabriel's 'Mercy Street.'
Watkins Family Hour – Watkins Family Hour:
The Watkins siblings are two thirds of Nickel Creek, erstwhile bluegrass wunderkinder with Chris Thile, now a virtuoso solo mandolinist and big alternative bluegrass star. The Watkins Family Hour started as a monthly music revue in LA, anchored by the Watkins siblings, that included a number of recurring performers such as Fiona Apple, also an LA resident. This is very satisfying, thoughtfully played country music of the highest caliber, nicely recorded, and with none of that commercial country sheen — while also not being too self-consciously 'alternative' or 'hipster' country. Includes a surprisingly lovely version of Fleetwood Mac's 'Steal Your Heart Away' (from a hardly-heard 2003 album) and a very fetching and true-to-the-original (and our times) version of Gordon Lightfoot's 'Early Morning Rain.' (Entertaining Tiny Desk concert here.)

Here at Boiler Service Dublin our aim is to provide you with helpful information and guidance regarding boiler servicing in the Dublin area.
Boiler manufacturers usually recommend an annual boiler service dublin and boiler safety check, which should be carried out by a qualified boiler technician. These necessary checks ensure that your boiler is functioning both safely and correctly. Regular servicing of your boiler is crucial as it also ensures that the boiler is working to the specifications stated by the boiler manufacturer. This will help prolong the life span of the boiler while reducing the risk of costly repairs and faults in the future.
A boiler service carried out by a competent professional will take about an hour to complete and should cause minimal disruption. A detailed service should include an inspection of the complete boiler unit including oil tank, pipes, ventilation, clearances etc. The system is usually inspected, cleaned and reassembled. The operation of the boilers functions should then be tested for safe and correct operation.

I remember when requesting vacation time, I thought it would be a good idea to leave on a Wednesday and return exactly 2 weeks later. The rationale here was to work a full 36 hours the week I left and the week I returned, thus requiring me to take only 36 hours of PTO for the for the entire trip. What a brilliant idea… I mean, it really is… if only I'd taken into consideration the amount of time I would have available for packing, which has been little to none.
I fly out today, and while an empty suitcase lies open on my bed with piles of jeans, workout clothes and unmentionables in the immediate vicinity – I have no worries. I have always worked best under pressure, and this is no exception. Besides, it's impossible to pack before determing the appropriate travel outfit: comfortable, cute and complete with layers for avoiding in-flight hypothermia, and for saving space in the suitcase. Furthermore, it was necessary to find the "perfect" coat and the "perfect" black flat boots to take on the trip. As these things have now been accomplished I can proceed with the packing process.
I'm eagerly anticipating the potential this blog has for entertainment value and documentation of my trip. I was hoping to spend my 30th birthday with some of my closest friends, but since you can't tag along, I will include you via the WWW. (It's much more affordable). :o) Stay tuned for stories of my adventures, pics, and videos (if I can figure it out)!
Ciao-sie! (I know… I'm not going to Italy this time… but practicing for Chapter 2).
