This message concerns both gnulib and grub. As discussed on irc and on the list , ENABLE_NLS is not used correctly, which leads to a build failure when gettext is not detected (or with configure option --disable-nls).
ENABLE_NLS is defined in AM_GNU_GETTEXT and the documentation of this macro  does not require ENABLE_NLS to be defined when gettext is not available. However, uses of ENABLE_NLS assume it to be defined, which is not correct.
The attached patch fixes the problem for grub.

After creating a patch related to the Rayman 1 Series I decided to create a Rayman 2 Patch for Windows 64bit. No more spending 5 bucks more to GoG! Just use your own CD.It will work only work with 64bit Windows OS. What this small Application does is, it copies all neccessairy files from your CD to that path you want to, copies an already debugged Rayman2.exe so you can play Rayman 2 and puts a shortcut in your desktop.

That sounds very useful! I've got a 64-bit PC but I already have the GOG version. But I'm sure other people will be very grateful for this!
I am very interested in changes made by patcher to the executable file.

The game cannot be installed on 64-bit computers, because the DRM in the installation disc is 16-bit.
So maybe the DRM was modified? Even taken out maybe?
However this seems to be fixed in Windows 8 x64 operating systems.
Wow... I didn't know that :O I thought x64 Windows didn't have support for 16 bit programs?
emshomar, you are like the compatibility god of this universe. Awesome work!
Ah, I see you've made screenshots, nice!
Robotic Teensie wrote: Ah, I see you've made screenshots, nice!
aahh not again! I make mistakes so much. Anyway I updated the File. It should be now corrected.
Just out of curiosity, what exactly was wrong with Rayman 2? Was it the DRM, as said?
Huh I'm confused. If you just created a patch, what is this thread you made a month ago?
you spoke of. In that case it was indeed the DRM as I suspected.
As the guy who founded music technic in Rayman in 7, what about the problem in 64bits, i use my own CD and it's working, without any patches.
I know this is off topic an not Rayman related but I must ask since you are talented with Patchers. Can you bypass Pac-Man World 2 StarForce protection? Due to incompatible StarForce drivers on Win 7, game wont work. I can even upload iso if you dont have it.
Sorry I am not experienced with Star Force!
emshomar wrote: Sorry I am not experienced with Star Force!
Do you know someone who can help me?
No sorry! But I got a workaround: Do you know the Software called Alcohol 120%? It can read and write and if you got a good ODD even write copy protected medium. Unfortunetly it's not freeware, but I can provide you the Installation file and crack.

As I said I am not experienced with StarForce. I don't have a medium with such a protection.

OK, anyways I installed Rayman M with your installer, and everything works, but loading times are really slow. Any idea why?
emshomar wrote: I think that's normal.
aha, are you on laptop?


Will Hershey Be Next Sponsor to Give ABC The Kiss Off Over Soap Murders?
There may be a smile in every Hershey bar, but I bet President of Disney-ABC Television Group Anne Sweeney doesn't have a grin on her face this morning, thanks to the incompetence of her Daytime Chief Brian Frons, as well as his inept PR and marketing execs.
Pennsylvania's Patriot-News has an article up about soap fans contacting Hershey Co. asking them to boycott ABC over the cancellations of classic soap operas All My Children and One Life to Live. While a rep for Hershey wouldn't discuss the fans' outreach to the company with the newspaper, buzz is growing that Hershey may follow Hoover's lead. Now wouldn't that just be the sweetest revenge?
Hoover to BOYCOTT ABC Over Soap Cancellations Starting April 22!

Q: jQuery toggle one class when another is clicked I am trying to write an if else statement to trigger one class when another one is clicked under the condition that the one class has a marginTop of -200px.
I tried using this if statement but it doesn't work:
    if ($('.logintrigger').click() && $('.register').css('marginTop') === '-200px') {
        $('.registertrigger').toggle(
            function () {$('.register').stop().animate({'marginTop':'-0px'},200); $('#opencloseregister').css({'backgroundPosition':'-20px 0px'});}
        );
    }

Any suggestions???

A: It sounds like you simply need to rework your expression. The problem is you're trying to see if an element is 'clicked', when you should just attach an event handler.
$('.loginTrigger').click(function()
{
    if('.register').css('marginTop') === '-200px')
    {
        // Do Stuff
    }
});

A: Made a jsfiddle with an example of proper ifelse with jquery. http://jsfiddle.net/RQ75m/
$(".logintrigger").click(function(){

    if( $(".register").css("margin-top") == "200px" ){

       $(".registertrigger").show(); //toggle function here
       return false; //so that the page doesn't refresh

    } else {

       $(".registertrigger").hide();
       return false; //so that the page doesn't refresh

    }

});

A: you are calling the click event, i think you want to add an event to the click event...
$('.logintrigger').click( function(e){
  if($('.register').css('marginTop') === '-200px'){
    $('.registertrigger').toggle();
  }
});

A: When you are calling $('.logintrigger').click(), it is triggering click event.
it should be:
if ($('.logintrigger').click(function(){
   if ($('.register').css('marginTop') === '-200px') {
        $('.registertrigger').toggle(
            function () {
               $('.register').stop().animate({'marginTop':'-0px'},200);
               $('#opencloseregister').css({'backgroundPosition':'-20px 0px'});
            }
        );
    }
})

A: $('.logintrigger').on('click', function(){

    if($('.register').css('marginTop')==='200px') {

        $('.registertrigger').toggle( function () {

            $('.register').stop().animate({'marginTop': 0 },200);
            $('#opencloseregister').css({'backgroundPosition':'-20px 0px'});

        });

    }

});

Happy Birthday to the Last English Champion – by Rob Atkinson
Posted on 13/11/2015 | 14 Comments
Sgt Wilko – Champion
Another Leeds United birthday to mark with an appropriate tribute for all the man did for our great club. This time it's someone who is a contemporary of those 70-somethings who have celebrated recently – the likes of Paul Madeley, Norman Hunter, Paul Reaney and Johnny Giles – but who was never, by his own acknowledgement, anything more than mediocre as a player himself. In the managerial arena though, Howard Wilkinson – 72 years old today – has outstripped virtually all of the Revie greats, winning the last ever Football League Championship, going down in history as the last Englishman to win the league in the 20th Century and masterminding the second incarnation of a winning Leeds team from a starting point remarkably similar to that which Don Revie inherited in the early sixties.
Wilko's career after his playing days ended was an upward graph of coaching success from humble beginnings, but he went on to have two stints as caretaker-manager of England, as well as spells with Sunderland, Sheffield Wednesday and Notts County. It is for his time at Leeds United, though, that he will be remembered as a football manager who walked into what had become a poisoned chalice of a job, a club with a revolving door on the manager's office and one which had signally failed to recapture the magic of its one great period at the top of the game. Wilkinson came in with the air of a man who was going to put a stop to all the nonsense and set matters straight. Let the record show that he succeeded, beyond the wildest dreams of any Leeds fan at the time he was appointed.
In TV interviews at that time, he could be seen by the side of chairman Leslie Silver, regarding his coffee cup with little enthusiasm and mildly joking that he hoped we'd be able to afford better crockery when he got us winning. Leeds were treading deep water at the bottom end of the old Second Division, and had been looking more likely to proceed downwards from that point than up; a situation uncannily similar to the one Don Revie found in 1961. Both men would be able to count on the bounteous fruits of a productive academy, though Revie felt able to blood his precocious youths somewhat earlier than Wilko could in his reign. But where Don found his Bobby Collins, so Howard was able to persuade Gordon Strachan to step down a league and be the catalyst for a revival that may not have been as enduring as Revie's, but was arguably even more meteoric and spectacular.
Wilko joined for the still fairly new 1988-89 season, and spent the rest of that campaign overhauling discipline at the club and bringing about his own type of working environment. The graph spiked upwards from there. In his first full season, with a batch of good, solid recruits added – and after an uncertain start – Leeds went top of the league and hardly faltered until promotion and the Championship were clinched on a sunny day in Bournemouth. A season of high achievement followed as Leeds swiftly found their feet back in the top flight after an eight year absence. United did far more than consolidate, battling away at the top end to finish an eminently respectable fourth, as well as reaching two domestic semi-finals. The following season was the last of the old-style Football League, and Wilko's Leeds achieved immortality by winning the Title by four clear points to become the Last Champions. Less than four years after joining a club going nowhere but downhill, Howard Wilkinson had restored Leeds United to the very pinnacle of the game. It had taken Don Revie twice as long to win his first League Title.
While all this had been going on, Howard and his staff had been overseeing the development of an Academy setup which would go on to produce many stars towards the end of the century; many players who are still flourishing at the top level had their start in what was rightly famed as a world-class breeding ground for football talent.
One of the main regrets of the Wilkinson era at Leeds is that he did not survive long enough in the job to introduce these home-grown prodigies into the first team himself. But Wilko's later years at Leeds coincided with boardroom uncertainty and financial mismanagement, both of which had their effect on sales and recruitment policy. So, we lost a Speed here and a Batty there and the likes of Carlton Palmer and Nigel Worthington came in; the club was reduced to offering pre-retirement homes to such as Ian Rush and David O'Leary. O'Leary it was, after a George Graham interregnum, who gained the most from Wilkinson's enlightened youth development programme. Looking back, it's clear that things could have worked out differently – quite probably the seeds of our 21st Century disaster were sown in Wilko's 1996 sacking.
Howard Wilkinson stands alone behind Don Revie as Leeds United's second-greatest manager, and probably as one of the more wronged men to have lost his job when so much of it had already been done to ensure the club's own crop of major stars. As before, Leeds lacked the courage and patience to see it through; but these things are always clearer with the benefit of 20:20 hindsight.
Happy Birthday, Sergeant Wilko – you'll always be remembered fondly at Elland Road, and your place in the history of English football is secure.

Rob – could you possibly elaborate on this, please? "Quite probably the seeds of our 21st Century disaster were sown in Wilko's 1996 sacking." As a Leeds supporter of more than 50 years i agree with much of your praise for Wilkinson. However, it should be said that results went horribly wrong over the second half of his final full season, 1995-96, and the start of the next season; we won 8 out of 30 matches during that time and three of them were against lower-division clubs in cup competitions. We also lost not only Speed, as you say, but also McAllister, to Coventry of all clubs, and he was still playing brilliantly for Liverpool five or six years later. Wilko's buying had become erratic by then – some great signings, such as Nigel Martyn, but a lot of dross, eg. Brolin, Palmer, Rush, Lee Sharpe for £4.5m ferchrissakes. And I still don't get why Wilko bought so sparingly after we won the championship in '92. What was it – Scott Sellars and David Rocastle, followed by Frank Strandli? So yes, happy birthday and thank you, Sgt Wilko, but let's not gloss over the decline of the mid-90s, wherever the blame may have fallen.
Rob Atkinson | 13/11/2013 at 16:51 | Reply
It's a question that deserves its own blog really – but I think that while Wilko had his bad patch, it was a function of the situation surrounding the club at the time, with all the Caspian thing dragging on – which I think contributed towards a bad signing in Sharp. But I believe he also signed Bowyer and Martyn around that time. I also think Wilko would have blooded the youngsters, unlike Graham, and wouldn't have chosen to spend as recklessly as O'Leary did. Howard was probably best-qualified to reap the benefit of the Academy he'd set up. If the team could have been built on the basis of three or four good experienced pros with all the talent we had coming through, I honestly think we might have avoided meltdown. When Ridsdale wanted to live the dream, that's when we really needed a wise old head in the manager's office to say when necessary "We don't need him, Mr Chairman". I never really bought into O'Leary – he was big on self-aggrandisement but wasn't able to see any faults or deficiencies in himself – that was his lack of experience. He lost it with the players in the end, and I think he hast to take a big share of the blame for what eventually happened. It's all what-ifs and theories, but my ideal scenario would have been Wilko seeing us through to the turn of the century while we plotted to have O'Neill succeed him. I think we'd have been OK then.

A very well argued reply, Rob. You've convinced me. Thanks.

Many thanks, Rusty, that's much appreciated – and I agree with you.
My name is Paul, I live at Deemount Gardens in Aberdeen, I am a fake Leeds fan and I love reading Rob Atkinson's blog on my Sky Broadband connection. (IP 176.250.239.131)
Cheers, Paul.

I think he was seen as having to go when he signed the Sheffield United defence and then seemed to be surprised that we defended like Sheffield United. I wish he'd stayed.
Happy birthday Howard.

That 3 year window of success between 1989 and 1992 was a special time for every Leeds fan who saw those 3 exciting seasons and I will always cherish seeing the Leeds players and Wilko parading the League Championship trophy at the Norwich home game. Things were never the same after winning the Championship, due to the new back-pass rule and the ageing players that Leeds had, but Wilko was always determined to build another successful team, right up to being sacked in 1996.
What Howard Wilkinson achieved will always be on the Leeds honours list and is also in the bricks and mortar of the East Stand and Thorp Arch and is far more memorable than the overspending, trophy-less O'Leary years.
Couldn't agree more Paul, thanks for the highly apt summary.

He did well with yourselves and Sheff wed but was a complete distaster/success at Sunderland depending upon your affiliation up in the great divide. Come back Howard you were doing a great job!!! nufc.

(en.wikipedia.org) Koldbrann (Gangrene) is a Norwegian black metal band founded in 2001.
Musically Koldbrann, like countrymen 1349, play very orthodox black metal in the classic Norwegian mould and have also received favorable comparisons to early Gorgoroth, Mayhem and Darkthrone. Much of the praise directed at the band has therefore been centered around their songwriting and excellent reproduction of the old sound of the Norwegian scene.
Koldbrann have been very vocal about their distaste for drum triggers, featuring anti-trigger notifications on both of their full length albums.
They recorded two demos in 2002 and their first album "Nekrotisk Inkvisition" one year later. It was originally limited to 333 units, but due to several recent re-releases more than five thousand have been released. After releasing a Split EP with Ljå and the Atomvinter EP the band moved to German label Twilight Vertrieb for the release of their second album "Moribund", which featured guest appearances by Iblis and L. Wachtfels from Endstille (who are on the same label). It was followed by a split with Faustcoven and a tour with Negator and Sarkom. In the year 2007 they toured with Taake and Urgehal and appeared at the 2007 edition of Oslo's Inferno Metal Festival. They also embarked on the same year on a tour of Eastern Europe with Marduk.
As of 2009 they are touring with Shining, they performed again in Inferno, and will perform in Barther Metal Openair in Germany.
(lastfm.de) Koldbrann (norwegisch: "Gangrän") ist eine norwegische Black-Metal-Band. Sie wurde im Jahre 2001 in Drammen gegründet.
Die Band brachte im Jahr 2002 zwei Demos heraus und bald darauf, im Jahr 2003 ihr erstes Album "Nekrotisk Inkvisition". Ursprünglich war das Album auf 333 Einheiten limitiert, es wurden aber durch verschiedene teilweise ebenfalls limitierte Wiederveröffentlichungen insgesamt mehr als fünftausend Stück herausgegeben. Nach einem Splitalbum mit Ljå und einer EP, wechselten sie zum deutschen Label Twilight-Vertrieb, wo sie ihr zweites Album "Moribund" veröffentlichten, auf dem sich Iblis und L. Wachtfels von ihren Labelkollegen Endstille beteiligten. Danach folgte eine Split mit Faustcoven und die Band ging auf Tour mit Negator und Sarkom.
Die Cover der beiden Alben sind Werken bekannter Künstler entliehen. So stammt das Album-Cover von "Nekrotisk Inkvisiton" dem oberen Teil, des rechten Flügels von Hieronymus Boschs Heuwagen. Das Album-Cover von "Moribund" enthält eine Szene der "Letzten Versuchung" von Stefan Lochner.
Sänger Mannevond singt ebenfalls noch bei "Enthral" und spiel Bass bei "Urgehal".

He loved his family dearly, and enjoyed the times that they spent together. John will be missed by his family and his many friends.
He is survived by his wife, Maxine Rokala of Dassel; children, Mark (Julie) Rokala of Washington DC, Michael Rokala of Satellite Beach, FL, and Jodi (Alaa) Ghazi of Damascus, Syria; eight grandchildren: Danyah Ghazi, Kenan Ghazi, Maya Ghazi, Kassim Ghazi, Lea Ghazi, Henry Rokala, Lillian Rokala, and Andrew Rygwall; siblings Maryann Harkman of Cokato, Audrey (Ron) Peterson of Green Valley, AZ, Carl (Beverly) Rokala of Dassel, and Margaret Mattila of Brainerd; a sister-in-law, Lucy Rokala of Litchfield; and numerous nieces, nephews, and other relatives.

We have cooked slow roast shoulder of lamb a couple of times in the past and it always looms large in our memories as one of the tastiest meals that we can remember, especially considering that it's so easy to prepare. Kerri's family came to visit today and so we gladly took the opportunity to cook this again.
The recipe that we've followed is this one, which is based on a recipe from Jamie Oliver. There are not many ingredients and it is simple to prepare, which makes the utter deliciousness all the more brilliant. The lamb cooks for a long time and becomes very tender, falling away from the bone so much that the bones come out completely clean when you remove the meat from them.
The recipe specifies a sauce made from the roasted garlic, with chicken stock, capers, mint and red wine vinegar. We've loved this in the past and although it might not sound like it, it does go with food in the same way that a normal gravy would. It just has fresher notes due to the mint and a slight complex bitterness from the capers. Delicious. This time we made it with half the capers and mint that the recipe specified and it was still very good.
We served this with both mashed potato and roast potatoes because different people wanted different types. Also green beans, kale and swede. The sauce magically goes with everything.
* First, preheat your oven as high as it will go.
* Using a sharp knife, score the fat layer of the lamb at about 1″ (2.5cm) intervals, then do it in the opposite direction to form a diamond pattern. I did this a bit too eagerly, making the intervals too small and cutting through the fat into the meat, but it didn't matter.
* Pour some olive oil over your lamb, rub it in with your hands and then sprinkle liberally with salt and ground black pepper, rubbing the seasoning in well with your hands too.
* Pour a little olive oil into a lidded casserole dish and lay half of the rosemary sprigs into it, then scatter half of the garlic gloves amongst the rosemary springs.
* Place the lamb into the casserole, on top of the rosemary and garlic and scatter the rest of the rosemary and garlic cloves on top of the lamb.
* Put the lid onto the casserole and put it into the oven on the middle shelf of your pre-heated oven before turning down to 170°C (325°F), or 160°C for a fan-assisted oven.
* Cook for four hours at this temperature. It does not need much attention, it will quite happily cook away to a deliciously soft state.
* Remove the lamb from the casserole; cover it with foil and leave to rest for a while.
* Remove and discard any sprigs of rosemary in the casserole. Don't worry about the little leaves that have fallen off the sprigs. Remove the roasted garlic cloves to a plate and let them cool a little.
* Remove all but one tablespoon of oil from the pan. We find that a LOT of oil cooks out of the lamb, and it has a strangely green hue from the rosemary. Try to remove only the oil; retain and other juices that have cooked out of the lamb.
* Take some of the roasted garlic cloves and squeeze out the soft, nutty, garlicky insides, mash them up with a spoon and put them back into the casserole.
* Place the casserole on the hob over a medium heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of flour, then stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, gradually add the chicken stock. Boil, stirring, for about 5 minutes.
* Add the finely chopped mint, capers and red wine vinegar, stirring it all in.
* Boil gently for a few minutes, then pour into a jug for serving.
* To serve the lamb, simply pull it away from the bone with a knife and fork or two forks. It should break up very easily.
* Serve the lamb with potatoes, some green vegetables and plenty of the sauce. Delicious.

hi, do you think this method will work with a leg of lamb?
It will probably work with a leg but the result will be different. The shoulder has more fat in it than the leg and that fat slowly cooks away during the long cooking process and results in very soft meat that falls away from the bone. Using a leg would could out a bit drier, but would still be tasty I'm sure. Good luck if you try it!
There are lots of recipes around that use a leg. I thought we had done it this way actually but I can't find any reference to it.
Made this slow cooked lamb last night. Absolutely delicious.
Great recipe. Dead easy and great results.
Just made this tonight and its delicious. My family devoured it and we have decided that this recipe will be a regular for us. Love it. Thank you.


The term "colonoscopy" means looking inside the colon. It is a procedure performed by a subspecialist endoscopist. (Surgeon or gastroenterologist).
Your physician may provide you written instructions and will also communicate verbally on how to get prepared for the colonoscopy procedure. The process is called bowel prep.
Certain medications such as aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen or other blood thinning medications, and iron containing preparation should be stopped before the test. Iron medications produce a dark black stool, and this makes the view inside the bowel less clear.

Momen once again clarifies the controversy over his "heaven" remark
Foreign Minister AK Abdul Momen has clarified that his use of the word "heaven" was not in its "true sense", but only meant for comparing the situation in Bangladesh with other countries amid global economic crisis.
"After all I am a public figure. I am an open person," he told reporters on Sunday reiterating that he says what he thinks as an open-minded person.
The foreign minister wore his usual smile as he also described, in his own style, how the media treated him in their reports on this comment.

In Sylhet on Saturday, Momen said his comments were "twisted" as he meant that people of Bangladesh are in a far better situation compared to other countries amid global recession.
"I said we are in a far better situation compared to other countries," he told reporters.
Comparing the situation with other countries, the foreign minister on Friday said people in Bangladesh are leading a happy life and "living in heaven" compared to other countries.
He said a certain group is spreading panic claiming that Bangladesh will face a Sri Lanka-like situation. "This is baseless."

Q: AJAX: Add

HTML:

I have no problems populating the
 with filler.txt's
s if I use innerHTML. I have spent time searching this and other sites, and have seen it said that unlike innerHTML which replaces all of an element node's contents, appendChild expects an object as opposed to a string, and so can't be added to the DOM after the page has loaded.
Unfortunately I'm still not able to figure out how to append a text string with a lot of
s back-to-back to the existing
. Thoughts?
(The filler.txt document in xmlhttp.open()'s second parameter is something I'm only using for testing purposes. Once I figure out how to append more
s into the
 with AJAX, I'll use a PHP page instead which generates the
s with information from my MySQL db.)

A: This will give you the output:
var newItems = "

*New item 6

*New item 7

*New item 8

*New item 9

*New item 10";
        document.getElementById("full_list").innerHTML += newItems;

For simplicity, I used a variable already with html and added in innerHTML property.

A: If you really want to use appendChild(), rather than .innerHtml += ... try it like this:
var element = document.createElement("li");
var elementContent = document.createTextNode(xmlhttp.responseText);

element.appendChild(elementContent);
document.getElementById("full_list").appendChild(element);

Betz Family Clos de Betz 2017
Notify me of updates to Betz Family Clos de Betz 2017
Regions: Washington
Washington (Columbia Valley)
Winery: Betz Family Wines
Betz Family Clos de Betz is 67 % Merlot, 27% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot
Washington southern Rhone varieties continue their winning streak, proving to excel in cool and hot vintages. Fans of thisSouthern Rhone-inspired wine will note that there's no Counoise in the 2012 blend as there has been in recent vintages; that variety ripened fine, but they lacked the penetrating character needed to complement the final wine. The Mourvedre fraction (15%) stepped through in the wine, making the 2012 deeper, more structured yet finely layered. Grenache (50%) still dominates the blend, with its creamy black raspberry, wild dried strawberry, dried herbs and floral notes. Cinsault (20%) fills in with its dusty blue notes, and Yakima Valley Syrah (15%) provides more backbone. This is a Bésoleil for the cellar, dense and full, and a few years of aging will expand its Chateauneuf-like appeal.
Full, dark ruby-red. Black fruit and licorice aromas are complicated by a mineral element. Wonderfully sappy, concentrated and ripe, with well-delineated Merlot-dominated flavors of black fruits, licorice and bitter chocolate conveying sexy sweetness. Finishes with plush tannins and excellent length. A superb vintage for this wine, clearly more concentrated and ripe than the 2016. Winemaker Skinner told me that the Petit Verdot element from Olsen vineyard is somewhat Pinot-like and actually softens this wine's tannins. And he noted that the cool late-season temperatures in 2017 allowed for easy picking. (aged until June of '18 in 60% new oak before being moved to neutral barrels for nearly another year of aging)
- Stephen Tanzer 93 Points
A blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot, the 2017 Clos de Betz has a vibrant expression on the nose, with plush, generous fruit aromas and an underlying brooding tightness. Full-bodied on the palate, the fleshy, plump fruit tones deliver a velvety lushness over the mid-palate, then the wine becomes more dusty and rigid on the finish, ending with oak spices that linger. I will revisit this swine in 36 months, as I suspect it will show better at a later date. This will easily last a decade and more. 750 cases produced.
We raise our glasses to all of you and say;
alla famiglia – to our family!

Leave the planet better off than we found it
Betz Family Besoleil 2016
Betz Family Besoleil is made from 55% Grenache, 23% Mourvèdre, 11% Syrah and the rest Cinsault,
Grenache speaks loudly in the Bésoleil with notes of pomegranate, red raspberry, and strawberry leaf. The Counoise and Cinsualt bring bing cherry fruit and blueberry notes to the table, complicated by pepper and garrique. Mourvedre donates a wild meatiness to the blend, and a purple hue. Syrah rounds things out, adding texture, and flesh to the palate.
"Attractively complex aromas of cherries, kirsch, white pepper, spice, potpourri and licorice, it's medium to full-bodied, sappy and succulent, with velvety structuring tannins and bright acids." 94 pts - Robert Parkers Wine Advocate
"Bright raspberry and red-plum fruits with attractive depth and freshness. This has all you want in a Rhône-style blend. Good depth of flavor and focused structure." 93 pts - James Suckling
"Moving more and more from Olsen Vineyard, which is 20 miles northwest of Red Mountain (where they love working with the grower, who is proactive and responsive), the medium ruby/purple-colored 2016 Besoleil is 55% Grenache, 23% Mourvèdre, 11% Syrah and the rest Cinsault, all aged in a mix of neutral barrels. It offers beautiful notes of red plums, blueberries, white and black pepper and herbs de Provence, medium to full-bodied richness, a silky, elegant style, and integrated acidity. It's another beautiful vintage of this wine that will keep for a decade." 92 pts. - Jeb Dunnuck
Blending Detail:
49 % Grenache
20% Syrah
16% Cinsault
9% Mourvêdre
6% Counoise
The first vintage where they've pushed the bottling back to give the cuvee 16-18 months in barrel, the 2015 Besoleil is a dead ringer for a high-quality Chateauneuf du Pape and offers perfumed notes of herbes de Provence, kirsch, licorice and sweet spice. It's medium to full-bodied, textured and fruit-forward, with a hedonistic yet elegant profile that's going to evolve gracefully.
Robert Parker 91-93 Points
Betz Family La Cote Rousse Syrah 2016
Sweet, savory aromas lead the way, sort of a mineral-laden black fruit---dark berries and plums. Smoke, dried herbs, violet, meat, wet stones and a hint of ironstone complete the package. It penetrates yet is a broad fragrant expression. I've always felt the aromatic range of this wine has its foundation in the four clones we use.
The black fruits continue on the palate, with black cherry, dark plum and spices echoing the aroma. While it's rich, almost luxurious, there's a tannic foundation and a structured acidity. Floral and earthy, the dried herbs and stones emerge here too, along with tobacco, thyme and lavender. This is a food-lover's Syrah, with weight, brightness and dimension.
(Clones 174, 383, 99 and Phelps) Vineyards: Ciel du Cheval Ranch at the End of the Road Classic Red Mountain character defines the Syrah La Côte Rousse, despite being the product of a cooler vintage. The warm site vineyards, Ciel du Cheval and Ranch at the End of the Road accumulated more heat than our other sites and ripened the four Syrah clones to a greater extent; we've never seen Red Mountain deliver less than full physiological maturity, every vintage. Nevertheless this vintage retains a vibrancy and energy that isn't often found on Red Mountain.
"The 2016 Syrah La Cote Rousse is built around clone 99, all from Red Mountain, that saw 45% whole clusters in the fermentation. This cuvee, which is also moving more and more toward Ciel du Cheval, is 88% from this terrific site. It's another inky purple colored red with a beautiful bouquet of black raspberries, toasted spice, dried herbs, and mineral aromas and flavors. This full-bodied, ripe, layered Syrah needs 2-3 years of bottle age and will keep for 15+ years." 95+ pts - Jeb Dunnuck
"The 2016 Syrah La Côte Rousse reveals notes of purple flowers, crunchy dark berry fruit and cracked pepper, followed by a medium-bodied, youthfully chewy but fine-grained palate that's bright and chalky. Taut and concentrated, it will require—and reward—some patience." 94+ - Robert Parkers Wine Advocate
"So much spice and mineral aromas here with hints of cloves and white pepper. Full body, ink and dark fruit and some black olives. A solid and chewy syrah with so much strength yet form." 94 pts - James Suckling
Betz Family Cabernet Sauvignon Pere de Famille 2017
Betz Family Cabernet Sauvignon Pere de Famille 2017 is 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest is Petit Verdot and Merlot.
This initial question raised by this vintage of Pere de Famille is how this wine, with such a depth of color, aromatic complexity and balance of the Old World. The answer isn't precise, but is a reflection of a remarkable Columbia Valley vintage, plus small changes in maturation and the varietal concentration of the final blend. Its inky purple color, muscular structure and plush texture all point to its New World origins. But the aromas of pure, layered black fruits, graphite, crushed rock and lavender (think St. Julien?) lead me back to the Old World. The 2012 Père de Famille has the highest level (90%) of Cabernet Sauvignon that we've ever used in this wine. Add to that the high concentration of Red Mountain grapes (84%), deep and structured, and it yields a wine as generous as any Cabernet we've made. It showed such density in barrel that we added three months barrel aging to resolve the tannins and body. It's weighty and yet balanced, fleshy yet fine grained, powerful yet polished. And unabashedly Cabernet Sauvignon, with its black currants, anise/thyme, savory mouth feel and dusty finish. Its dimension and precision indicate long aging ability, but you might be tempted far earlier.
Medium ruby. Vibrant aromas of black fruits, violet and pepper. Densely packed and plush but also sharply delineated, with the intense black fruit and saline mineral flavors boasting terrific inner-mouth perfume; there's also an exhilarating element of wildness here. As sappy as this powerful, gripping Cabernet is, it also hints at an almost candied sweetness. (Winemaker Skinner feels that the vinification in concrete was conducive for rounding out the structure of the Red Mountain fruit in this vintage and added that the year of aging in neutral oak helped the wine's texture and allowed its fruit to come through.) Spreads out horizontally to saturate the palate on the back end, finishing with broad, dusty tannins. This wine too is plusher and more concentrated than the 2016 version. (13.8% alcohol; two-thirds fermented in concrete; aging began in 75% new oak but the wine was moved into neutral barriques for a final 12 months)
A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot and Merlot, the 2017 Pere de Famille has a rich nose of black fruit and a structured, chewy core. Medium-bodied and dense on the palate, the wine shows an impeccable balance and steadily growing tannins on the back of the mid-palate. Soft purple flowers evolve with the robust expression while still in the mouth, and the finish is bold and precise—the flavors persist with great complexity long after the wine has left the mouth. This is an age-worthy wine with 13.8% alcohol and nice balance. 1,100 cases of this simply stunning wine were made. It's a delicious wine, and I highly recommend it.
Washington southern Rhone varieties continue their winning streak, proving to excel in cool and hot vintages. Fans of this
Southern Rhone-inspired wine will note that there's no Counoise in the 2012 blend as there has been in recent vintages; that variety ripened fine, but they lacked the penetrating character needed to complement the final wine. The Mourvedre fraction (15%) stepped through in the wine, making the 2012 deeper, more structured yet finely layered. Grenache (50%) still dominates the blend, with its creamy black raspberry, wild dried strawberry, dried herbs and floral notes. Cinsault (20%) fills in with its dusty blue notes, and Yakima Valley Syrah (15%) provides more backbone. This is a Bésoleil for the cellar, dense and full, and a few years of aging will expand its Chateauneuf-like appeal.
"The only other 2013 reviewed on this go around (most were reviewed last year), the 2013 Clos de Betz checks in as a blend of 63% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 22% Petit Verdot, mostly from Red Mountain and Yakima Valley, that spent 19 months in French oak. Sexy, supple, perfumed and beautifully complex, with notes of currants, dried flowers and an almost garrigue like perfume, this full-bodied beauty is already impossible to resist, yet will absolutely cruise for another 10-15 years. - Jeb Dunnuck"
- Wine Advocate (Issue #225, June 2016), 94 pts
The 2015 Clos de Betz is a blend of 75% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Petit Verdot. Offering up aromas of blackcurrants, crème de cassis, licorice, incense and rich soil tones, it's full-bodied, layered and velvety, with super concentration and depth, fine-grained structuring tannins and a long, youthfully chewy finish. The structural refinement and detail are indicative of Betz's thoughtful approach to the challenges of the 2015 vintage.
Betz Family Domaine de Pierres Syrah 2018
Betz Family Domaine de Pierres Syrah is made from 100% Syrah.
With our long history of making single site syrah's in Washington, it made sense for us to venture into the Rocks District of Milton Freewater in the Walla Walla Valley to bring you our newest syrah, "Domaine de Pierres."
The Rocks AVA produces syrah that shows a distinct character, separating it from any other site in Washington State. One thing in particular that has drawn people here is the gallet stones present throughout the valley. They are very similar to the pudding stones that are found in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, and can be anywhere from golf ball size, to softball size or larger. Since we purchased the vineyard in 2014 we have been tilling the earth multiple times every season to expose these rocks. The gallet stones act like a heat sink, giving a little extra push to help ripen syrah in an area with marginal heat accumulation.
In the glass, Domaine de Pierres stands out from our other syrah's because of its incredibly savory profile. Notes of roasted meat, fresh herbs, olive tapenade, tobacco and graphite are supported by dark fruit, espresso, and lavendar. The wine has a lower acidity and higher PH than our other wines, which contributes to a velvety, full bodied mouthfeel. Even in the cellar, we immediately noticed a difference in the color, aromatics and flavor that these syrah grapes were able to express.
The other big reason that we are so excited about the wine from this particular AVA, is that the history of the Rocks is happening right now! Our vineyard, "Ancient Stones," has only been planted there since 2007, and the beginning of the Rocks as a wine growing region only really started in the 1990's. There is a lot of energy and exploration going on, and it has been a fun experience for our team to be a part of it. We still have so much to learn about this region and it is very exciting to feel like we are on the upward swing!
Coming from the Ancient Stones Vineyard in the Rocks region of Walla Walla, the 2018 Syrah Domaine De Pierres is 100% Syrah that was not destemmed and was brought up in a mix of small and larger barrels. Classic Rocks notes of red and blue fruits, peppered game, exotic flowers, sweet mulch, and other herbal and cedary notes define the bouquet, and it's medium to full-bodied, with a soft, rounded texture, ripe tannins, and a great finish. While it has plenty of funkiness, it also has ample fruit as well as purity. It's approachable today yet will keep for 10-15 years.
Grenache is the star of Besoleil, but it's not the whole story. Additional southern Rhone varieties have found their way into the blend and today the wine includes Counoise, Cinsault, Syrah and Mourvèdre . Our cellar treatment has also evolved in several ways in order to promote additional nuance from these southern Rhone gems. Larger, neutral oak cooperage of 300 and 500 liters provides less surface-to-volume ratio, resulting in slower evolution and less oak influence in the final wine. Aging up to two-thirds of the blend in concrete vessels helps maintain a bright, fresh fruit character.
The story of Besoleil begins with our long-held belief that a precise marriage of soil and site can produce a profound expression of Grenache in Washington. We put that belief to the test with Besoleil's first vintage in 2003. While the Grenache in the earliest vintages of Besoleil was sourced from various vineyards throughout the Columbia Valley, two sites in particular (Olsen Vineyards in the Yakima Valley and Upland Vineyards on Snipes Mountain) have excelled as uniquely distinctive for Grenache. These two sites are the sources for the entirety of the Grenache in Besoleil today.
Besoleil is our Spanish/French whimsy for "kissed by the sun". It alludes to the warm, sunny days in the south of France that impart an intensity of character to the Grenache grape and its southern Rhone relatives. Imagine the windswept vineyards of Chhateauneuf-du-Pape, the inspiration for this wine, where Grenache thrives alongside a dozen or more other grape varieties.
The Southern Rhône blend from this estate, the 2018 Bésoleil checks in as 55% Grenache, 30% Mourvèdre, 12% Counoise, and 3% Syrah that was 60% destemmed and brought up in used barrels. It's always a lighter hued effort and offers a translucent ruby color as well as perfumed flowers, sandalwood, herbes de Provence, and assorted red fruit characteristics. Medium-bodied, nicely textured, and balanced, it's a charming, undeniably delicious blend to enjoy over the coming 5-7 years or so.
Betz Family La Serenne Syrah 2018
Betz Family La Serenne Syrah is 100% Syrah
La Serenne is the most reflective of the site/vintage dynamic of our three single-site 2012 Syrahs. Lovers of this wine know that its source, the Boushey Vineyard, is the highest altitude of the three vineyards and is typically the latest harvested. This cool site was accentuated by the cooler season and the results reflect the seriousness of this vineyard and its care.
An extraordinary, nearly impenetrable black purple color leads to a concentrated, inky aromatic impression: smoky black cherry and wild blackberry dominate, but a litany of supporting aromas is already emerging: smoke, violet, mushroom, roasted meat, Chinese 5 spice and minerals. It has a full attack on entry and a big, rich mouthfeel that goes on and on.
The 2018 Syrah La Serenne comes from the Yakima Valley and is always a more gamey, complex, exotic Syrah than the Cote Rousse. All from the Boushey Vineyard and seeing 70% stems, its ruby/purple hue gives way to a great nose of blueberries, lavender, smoked game, and peppered meat. Blind, I'd have guess it was from the Rocks region in Walla Walla given it's gamey exotic, floral character. Beautiful on the palate as well, with medium to full body, building tannins, and plenty of fruit, it needs 2-3 years of bottle age and will cruise for over a decade.

Home / Clallam County in Washington state / Donald Trump won Ottawa County / Lake Erie in Ohio / US National Guard / US election results: Why the most accurate bellwether counties were wrong
US election results: Why the most accurate bellwether counties were wrong
November 26, 2020 Clallam County in Washington state, Donald Trump won Ottawa County, Lake Erie in Ohio, US National Guard
America's most accurate bellwether counties, regions that have a reputation for accurately picking the president, got the presidential election completely wrong. Here's why.
On a cold, wind-swept November afternoon two weeks after election day, the crowds that thronged the beaches of Ottawa County all summer long are but a distant memory.
Situated on the southern shore of Lake Erie in Ohio, Ottawa County is one of America's most accurate bellwether counties - a region where voters correctly pick the president, election after election for decades at a time.
It's a largely rural area of 40,000 residents that's home to a nuclear power plant, a sprawling US National Guard training facility and islands that the British Royal Navy battled for and lost during the War of 1812.
A majority of voters here had backed the eventual winner of presidential elections every time since 1964. Until this year.
The Americans who almost always predict the president
With a total turnout of 78%, Donald Trump won Ottawa County by a margin of 61% to 38%, improving his 2016 return by four points
"I think people were pretty happy with some of the things he's done, what he's been able to accomplish," says Mark Copper, a leading local Republican who was re-elected county commissioner last month. "Especially considering there's a lot of things that has been done that don't get reported at all."
Ottawa County wasn't the only swing county to get the outcome wrong this time around.
In fact, of the 19 pivot counties across America to correctly pick the president every time over the past 10 election cycles, only one - Clallam County in Washington state - saw a majority back Joe Biden for president.
What's more, in this year's election voters in leading bellwether counties didn't just come out for Donald Trump marginally; they backed him in droves.
In Valencia County, New Mexico, which had correctly predicted the winner of every presidential election since 1952, Mr Trump won by 10 points; in Indiana's Vigo County, which backed every president bar two since 1888, he prevailed by 15 points.
In Westmoreland County, Virginia - a small, rural community south of Washington DC that's failed to be a bellwether only twice since 1928, and is home to twice the number of African Americans than the national average - he beat Mr Biden by 16 points.
The 2020 election appears to illustrate that the partisanship that's defined politics in Washington for years has now spread to small-town America. "People are more likely to identify with a party than we've seen before," says Harrison Kreisberg of BlueLabs Analytics, a polling firm that works with progressive and Democratic interests.
It's something Joan Day-Baker, chair of Valencia County's Democratic Party, has witnessed first-hand.
Arriving at a voting station to observe as a poll challenger on 4 November last, she sat down next to two people she didn't know. "I asked if they were from the Republican Party, and they said they were," she says. "I said: 'I'm the chair of the Democratic Party,' and the gentleman looked at me and said: 'Oh, the enemy.'"
Valencia County is home to a string of towns along the banks of the Rio Grande river in an otherwise largely arid stretch of desert south of Albuquerque.
In the past, says Mrs Day-Baker, the presence of conservative Democrats and split-ticket voting - choosing a Republican nominee for president but Democratic Party candidates as local representatives, or vice versa - were both commonplace. But that's no longer the case.
Here, local Republican candidates fuelled by Mr Trump's firebrand style almost wiped Democrats off the local political map.
She says that previously, "when there was a presidential election, people are watching, paying attention, and as soon as the president is elected, they forget [about politics] until it's election time again".
"That didn't happen after 2016," she adds. "They followed through the whole four years. Nobody forgot about politics."
Minority voters who changed their minds about Trump
Five US voters who changed the race
She blames much of that on the "Trump effect" - Mr Trump's ability to engage people in politics by appealing to their fears and discontents. In Valencia County, Mr Trump beat Mr Biden by six points more than he defeated Democratic Party candidate Hillary Clinton in 2016.
The divisions were everywhere. During the campaign Mrs Day-Baker says that local Democrats organised a "Ridin' for Biden" parade of vehicles through parts of the county. But when word got out, Trump supporters crashed it. "We had to quietly move our parade," she says. "Those are things that aren't just political, they become personal, after the election."
As with Valencia County, in the past bipartisanship wasn't unusual in Indiana's Vigo County. Profiled by BBC News weeks before the 2020 election, locals said voters' political identities weren't always defined in strict party terms and that people would regularly pivot between parties from one election cycle to the next.

US election results: Why the most accurate bellwether counties were wrong Reviewed by Press Release Power on November 26, 2020 Rating: 5


Well, by popular demand, looks like I'm going to move forward and do a Build on my TEXACO 13 project. I've already posted some information here and there.
A really slow build to play it safe. Not sure where to place the Thread yet?
Semi-Scale in appearance but it will stunt, probably not the pattern, but R/C throttled for unlimited touch n goes. Just a colorful sport model to have some fun with.
I've had this aircraft on my mind since the late 80's. It's about time I did something about it.
Re: TEXACO 13 Semi-Scale Build!! Real slow build.
Ought to be an interesting project. Post pics as you go.
Looks like it should more than qualify as a scale airplane for a contest. It should fit very nicely in the sport scale category. If not it will compete in the Fun Scale category. Looks like you are going to model it after an airplane you own. If so good color photos should be a snap. If it will do loops and wing overs it will be a slam dunk on the flight score. Go to the AMA site and look at the rules. I have flown some scale. Great bunch of people. Really fun contests. Also lots of info in the scale section of this forum.
That full scale original, the Travelaire Mystery Ship, hangs in the Chicago Museum of Science and Industry. I've thought to do it myself as a full stunter- someday.
I will Post photos, that's part of what a build is all about and it adds interest to contributing to the Forum.

Thanks for the reply. Well you know I have little interest in competing, but you never know. My luck, first place will be an ARF, and I won't even make the board.
Hey! Hey! Thanks for the reply. I think I have a cast airplane, but can't rember what it is?
Yes, Chicago, I know that. There's also a dozen photos on line of the aircraft taken there. Many views and living color.
I never came in first. That's not the point. The point is getting together with a great bunch of folks and to see and be seen.
All tail feathers are drawn.
I'll print them to scale and see if I have the balsa needed to make them.
Ring, ring, "Hello, Tom Morris."
Maybe I'll build the model from the back forward.
Working around this Smoothie ARF wing creates issues, it's not the same aspect ratio as the TEXACO 13.
So Semi-Scale it will be.
Looks like the wing is 1/7 scale and the fuselage is 6.8 scale. And I'm not redrawing the fuselage parts.
I gotta check my math.
On the ground viewed at 300 ft you won't be able to see the difference.
Stab area increased a tad and the wing re-located a bit for better balance.
I'd like to see this Thread moved to Scale Models Forum.
With your own design and scratch building, you're faced with questions not normally considered when building a stock kit.
Size of the model and power choice. Engine or motor?
How much detail will I need with my personal drawings/plans? The more detail the better, possibly. Extra work.
Do I cut this "Smoothie" wing in half and rejoin it for a small dihedral? Looks nicer. Extra work.
Ailerons? Pen lines to represent them or cut them out for a more interesting and scale look? Extra work.
Spring or shocked landing gear? Keeps the model from getting beat up a bit. Extra work.
1/8 or 3/32 gear wire? Weight trade off for strength? Not necessarily.
Removable wheels? Benefits. Extra work.
Wood selection? Totally your own decision. Give up strength for light? Maybe not. Use what wood you have? I like that.
Type of construction? Past building experience and the type of models you have experience building can determine this. Still have to pay attention to wood choice.
Fiberglass parts? Could work in areas depending on the model. May or may not save weight and could or could not offer benefits. Extra work.
Removable rudder and vertical stab? Makes shipping easier, smaller box if the model gets sold. Extra work.
Adjustable elevator or not? Small hatch. Extra work.
HDWE choice? Tom Morris. This one is easy.
Surface and finishing details. How far do you elect to take it? Boring, mild, excessive, or really knock um dead! Extra work.
Could be penalties for the latter.
Thank you for the move to Scale Models. I won't bet buried as quickly.
I got something on paper!
While a scratch built scale model airplane gets built and progresses or goes together, especially one that is designed by the builder, there are many changes that take place in the process. Changes from beginning to end.
I write notes to myself so I can keep track of the changes and tasks.
I'm curious if others do also?
The drawings are important as is the accuracy of part assembly. I cannot believe how many changes I've made to my drawings, which I actually started in 2004, till this day.
I just made a change this morning with the shape of the turtle deck.
If I elect to cut the wing in half for a small dihedral, many fuselage formers will have to be changed, plus the pieces that become the motor mount sides and firewall.
I use different colors in my drawings, makes it a bit easier to keep track of what's going on.
Spent an hour or so on my little sweetheart's tail feathers, you would be surprised as to what you can accomplish when you glue paper to balsa.
All Builds get off to a slow start, drawings, flat cut tail feathers, but I promise the Build will get more interesting.
Faux ribs on all tail feathers.
Spent some time this evening fine tuning my plans.
Turtle deck change, to a more scale outline, required the change of a half dozen fuselage formers.
Might just be able to print these plans tomorrow.
I am getting so close to printing out my fuselage formers and close to cutting them.
Scale, what a drag, I wish the formers were a tad simpler.
Here's most of the fuselage parts "nested" for printing.
Be different if arranged for laser cutting. I'll glue this stuff to balsa or ply and do the cutting by hand. Finish the edges with a sanding.
Goes quickly because it's fun, I'll do a second sheet for the other parts.
I printed my TEXACO 13 parts this morning.
Probably print the plans over the weekend.
Thought some color might spark interest.
The TEXACO 13 is a great aircraft to model with an interesting history.
My excitement won't go away. I'm looking forward to paint!
I bit the bullet so to speak and redid the aft fuselage formers as per drawings in the Travel Air book.
Photos of the aircraft seem to back up these cross section drawings.
Sorry about the photos, I use my phone instead of my Nikon. Saves me steps.
Hey Charles.....Merry Xmas and happy New Year to you and yours. Fascinating as always. So what is the wingspan on this beauty and what are you thinking of powering her with?
2019 will be a great year to build and contribute to the Stunt Hanger Forum.
The wingspan is only 52". I'm using a modified Smoothie ARF wing.
I'm giving power some thought, I'm even considering IC. A vintage racer deserves the smoke and noise.
Scale models, as complicated as they can be with construction and detailing, it's never to early to examine needed HDWE and to address your stash of contest grade balsa for the upcoming project.
Glenn, thanks for the reply!
I know you don't pay attention to such things, but Bob is having problems with the site and has been working on it for several days, and posted on the main forum about it. Check out the link above. Maybe you ought to cut back on meaningless photos and help out with the situation, and at least quit loading photos until he gives the all clear.
"I know you don't pay attention to things..."
Interesting start and possibly true in some cases, but this doesn't make me a bad person?
I do have a few of my Trolls blocked but I thought , "why not read this?"
Can't say I knew to what you are referring? I personally don't look at "everything" in the Forum like you mentioned. I'm not sure if everyone has seen that, but thank you for the heads up and the link. Honestly. Sure, if I had seen it I wouldn't have placed two new photos. Obviously. You're the only one who scolded me?
I'm in and out of the Forum a great deal but I only do a glance in hopes there are new Builds or replies to my contributions. Wishful thinking.
Maybe this entire pointless Build should be removed. Oh, you said "meaningless."
BTW. You could have sent me a polite PM.
At this point I couldn't care less if my Builds or contributions, get trolled, bullied or even removed. Have at it.
I'll have a great 2019 and nothing in my life will change.
Again. All you had to do was be a gentlemen and sent me a polite PM.
Great build thread, I sent you some photos I took of diecast Texaco's that were on a wall near a job site I went to last year. There are several Texaco's with different paint trims.
I've been really busy and haven't checked that email. I have 6 emails.
Here's the photos taken by Dennis.
Great collection! My guess is they are glued to the wall?
The picture with the inverted Triplane in back is at the Kalamazoo Air Zoo in Michigan.
The model should fly well & be a chore to paint.
Thanks for the reply and looking in.
That Museum is incredible. They have the TEXACO 13 replica?
By "chore," do you mean time consuming or difficult?
Yeah, Kalamazoo. In addition to two buildings, they have a CL circle in between.
The Triplane and Buzz Bomb are replicas, but the Futurliner is GENUINE. One of only few still in exisitance, most likely Number 10 on loan from Auburn Indiana.
Charlie, here are some pics of the late Jack Sheeks "Mistery Ship". He competed with it at the Nats and was on the U S Scale team with it.
Shirley, his wife gave it to me to restore. It's slow going but I hope to have it done by summer with hope's of getting it into the AMA museum.
Even model airplanes get old, they show age and use. A good thing actually.
At first glance one might say "You have your hands full."
I know better than that and I believe the restoration tasks will be a cake walk for a modeler of your stature.
I'm sure you'll do an incredible restoration of this fine Jack Sheeks Mystery Ship.
Envious for sure in a good way.
Could you start a thread about this restoration? I'm interested in the model. Jack was a prolific builder and great flyer. Would love to see his flying competition model coming back to it's original condition. As a seasoned US Team member flown flying model it is an important part of CL Scale. Thanks for your efforts, I'm glad you accepted Shirley's request to restore it.
