Microaggressions and Trigger Warnings placed on books and films and university classes? Who thought up this asinine system which sounds like the acceptance of the adult-child? Trigger warnings on classes because their subject matter might upset somebodies identity or other hang-up is what maturity was supposed to cure. University was the last place that transitory management called life was presumed to get people past their childhood hang-ups. The university should have simply had freshman orientation inform every student as a group that they were about to be treated like adults who had stepped out into the real world. But this all actually makes sense if one carries the protect the child from any harm child-rearing which was started after World War II and first applied in part to the Baby-Boomers. These were the kids whose parents rushed them to the doctor or the Emergency Room at the first sniffle, sneeze or cough. Where did we expect such activity to lead? Where did parents think, if they ever thought about this, that forcing or, at a minimum, pressuring their children to take band and learn a safe oboe or violin instead of Home Economics which exposed their daughters to dangerous items such as sewing machines, stoves, ovens, or Shop Class which exposed their sons to the threatening world of power tools or even manual impact devices and manual torque converters (hammers and screwdrivers) which could put an eye out, would lead to later in life their children feeling inadequate and unable to cope with life for themselves. Their children would never use such items; they would hire others to do such work. Make them learn to cook when they can make reservations on the cook's night off. Fix a railing using tools was out of the question when the handyman could be paid to take such risks thus saving their sons the challenge and danger. This was some of the psyche of parents in the late 1940's through the late 1960's and into the early 1970's as the Baby-Boomers were brought into adulthood. The excuse always was that they meant well and that repaired the scars, not.
Not every parent was like this. But even some of the less protective parents refused to permit their son to play football or other "dangerous" sports where concussions were a potential danger as their child was going to use their head for higher purposes and thus must be guarded from any and all damage. They did not realize the damage they were performing. Then, we Baby Boomers began to have the next generation and now the protection racket went mainstream. Again there were the risk adverse parenting methods and some which prepared their child for the real world. Parents who had more than two, three children at the most were irresponsible and probably would let them risk injury while growing up. How absolutely thoughtless they acted. Some of the Baby-Boomers refused to have even one child as they were overcome by the "me first" complex where any complication that stood between them and complete self-fulfillment was to be avoided, shunned like the monster under their beds as children. They served themselves and no other and would usually pair up to pretend they were a family, a childless family as it even gained terminology. But those who had children, or more often child, were tasked to see them through life free from any trauma. Bicycles were to be ridden with full safety gear including helmet, knee pads, elbow pads, wrist guards, hip pads and whatever could protect their precious little bundle of joy short of wrapping them in bubble wrap. Baseball the batters wore helmets and shin guards and forearm guards in case they were struck by a pitch. Perhaps teaching them to dodge would have been preferable but that required extreme coordination and was less than 100% effective. Better safe than sorry became the parental watchword.
With each generation having fewer children than the number of parents is a mathematical proof for eventual extinction. Ask Russia or Europe where birth rates are all well below the 2.1 children per woman replacement rate where zero growth and zero shrinkage is presumed to take place. A healthy population would have that ratio of babies to women closer to 2.5 and often much higher. But keeping junior safe from all those terrible threats and dangers out in the world takes up all their time, who has time for a second or third or heavens forbid, a fourth child. Their children never need worry about the real world as they will go to university for a decade plus and get sufficient degrees such that they will never need use tools other than a pen and paper, they will be professionals, doctors, lawyers and never work with their hands when their brains have been so cultivated. This was raising a psychosis, not actually a child, never ever considered raising their child for anything short of a professional practice and an easy and good life as defined by the child's parents and their grandparents who would need to be consulted on virtually every choice the actual parents found difficult. The big questions would be, do we expose little junior to life on a farm as there are so many dangerous things like hay forks and tractors with plow blades and junior will definitely never need to farm. Even if junior wished to act like farmer Joe, he would do so with a trowel and raise roses or other respectful things like strawberries or tomatoes, though the latter might be too much of a challenge. Of course the parents chose a safe environment for university and these universities had to please those who wrote the checks that paid for the $100,000.00 per year or more before dorm costs, fraternity or sorority costs plus books and a weekly generous allowance so they could have safe fun and safe everything.
Universities became more about coddling precious and gentle, all so innocent and unaware adult-children over education. They had mandatory classes to explain how dangerous and injurious certain words and phrases could be and that the university would not couch the use of such language from its staff or students. Students were to respect their fellow students above all else so all could have a safe university experience. Life became all about safe experiences which never challenged the protected child. Nobody ever thought to simply tell a child struck by an errant pitch to simply, "Put some ice on it and take your base." Instead an instant diagnosis was performed like triage and both batter and pitcher, the victim and the abuser were made to shake hands and make up for their acts which potentially harmed another child. This way each wears a scar, one having what we used to call a bruise but now parents refer to such injury as a contusion as none of these parents would call such a bruise as that would be so low-life talk that is totally unacceptable in their circle. It all becomes about appearance and a contest over whose child will be the most successful. There will be arguments where they decide if a lawyer supersedes a family practice or general practitioner or does a heart surgeon supersede the lawyer; then they arrange for the child to leave to seek the greatest career. Not until they are safely through receiving their law degree or training as an intern can parents relax knowing they completed the task of raising a perfect child.
These perfect children still have not been exposed to reality. Imagine an intern assigned one Saturday night, though it could be any night, to work in the Emergency Room in a large and prestigious hospital in a now less than desirable neighborhood. Are they prepared for the cursing and swearing they will hear? This is such a stark introduction to the world of colorful language they are likely to receive. Imagine a man comes in with a severe knife wound and there is already another man with a gunshot wound. Does anyone believe life thus far had prepared them for the language and possible actions should these two patients see one another? The level of animosity which will be displayed by both these fine and upstanding belligerents will only be outshone by the brilliant repertoire of language which will be used. If an elderly physician witnesses this confrontation he would likely have something witty and condescending to one or both men as he would quite likely tell one to, "Put a sock in it," and the other to, "Put some ice on it and I'll get to you when you act like a man." Neither swears one iota but both said firmly and resolutely could have the effect of shutting down the conversation. The existence of a number of the city's finest and security on location assists with the physician's demands. The young adult-child intern is likely completely unprepared for such a scenario and would run to their safe space away from the noise.
One cannot honestly believe that parents are shelling over such gross amounts of money to have their offspring protected from reality by the very institution which is presumed to be preparing them for life in the corporate jungle. These ill prepared adult-children will get eaten alive by anybody raised spending any amount of time on what we call the mean streets. The streets educate a child into an adult with great alacrity providing a wide range of experiences. First and most obvious is the colorful language. Nothing is merely gnarly, a word possibly within the adult-child's vernacular, but is more probably f&#$ing gnarly or bodaciously gnarly sh^t or other equally colorful adjectives used. An injured person's language who was in the knife against a gun fight and was shot or stabbed and deeply injured and cut to the bone will use language that might be truly shocking to a Marine, though no Marine worth their salt would show shock or surprise, and life threatening to the sheltered adult-child. Emergency Rooms come as trigger warning free zones and sans safe spaces. They are reality in its most raw form with people attempting to fake injuries so that a physician will write them some prescription for some pharmaceutical drugs, most likely pain killers but sometimes pep pills. Tell the one in a muscle shirt in Detroit in February that he does not need the medication he is demanding and that a Tylenol would be just as suitable as what he demanded for his pain. Listen to the language as the physician tells the gentleman that he is being discharged and recommended to take two Tylenol every three hours as necessary for pain. The next experience comes without warning and with nowhere to run as there are no safe zones and the threats of physical violence are such that the adult-child never even knew could pass from a civilized person's lips, welcome to the real imperfections in the real world. These youths are not being served any good purpose protecting them from contrary ideas or the more colorful side of language along with threats of violence made by real people in real situations in the real world. Things are far from antiseptic in reality but perhaps that will change and everybody will be more civilized and the world will see the dawning of the "Age of Aquarius" and we can all live as John Lennon had dreamed to "Imagine" and all will then have no need of trigger warnings and everywhere will be a safe zone. I, for one, dread such a day as there would be no free thought or further development as it is the rough and tumble of our world which necessitates change and that agitation is required to make those changes and discoveries, Rock On!.
President Obama has eleven months to do the damage he has desired to do all along. First off he will finally do all the things he has complained he did not have the power to do because of the restraints in the Constitution. Those are the introductory steps. His main other goal is to make the United States after the image of Europe except on steroids. His aims are to advance socialism and more effective governance in the lives of the subjects under the United States government. He will do all in his power to centralize all powers away from the individual states and place them within the Federal Government basket of powers. He has shifted healthcare to the central figures within the IRS. He has centralized all Federal grounds which used to be shared with the respective states into the BLM (Bureau of Land Management) and removed state access and land use grants into the BLM or the Parks and Planning and other Federal Park Administrative powers. President Obama is still heavily expounding the depth of Common Core in order to completely federalize the school systems. Expect biometric cameras to become mandated in order to receive extremely sizeable funding for a special program intended for special needs children and a new way of observing classrooms and identifying such needs in every child. This will place every child under Federal mandates and special educational tracking. Such tracking will be sold as making the educational experienced tailored to meet every individual child's learning habits. What it will do is train each child to fill a slot predetermined to be their optimum ability being utilized. This will rob every child's ability to strive, to become greater than their expectations. The Gates Foundation is heavily behind this system and using it to identify special problems before they become destructive.
One of the things President Obama will do in his final year in office is to make federal loans and other monies easier for students to receive for going to college. This will also place more young adults strapped with heavier student loan debt. These students will be offered a way out from under such debt by joining into some government program where they presumably pay back their loan monies through working for the government and receiving their normal government salary and the debt will steadily decrease with time. Many of these students will then remain as Federal Government employees. This will swell the numbers of Federal Employees.
In the Middle East and North Africa the plan is simple. Whatever "refugees" Europe cannot handle or wishes to send back, which is impossible, or elsewhere will be taken in by President Obama. These rejected "refugees" already count in the tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands. He will continue to avoid taking any serious actions in the Middle East and beyond in the Arab and Muslim world to resolve any of the turmoil. The President views what is happening as a good thing as it presumably removes the colonial influences which has been pervasive as per the dreams of his Father. Read about what he finds pleasing and proper from his book Dreams of my Father where he plainly states that the colonial past must be erased and forgotten if the underdeveloped world is ever to advance. This view goes farther than just the Middle East and the Muslim world despite that being his main target and should Islam prove to become a problem threatening the Western World, President Obama sees that too as retributions for the sins of colonialization. Little does he realize but the original sin in the area was the Arab Muslim colonialization which preceded the European colonialization which began after World War I and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and ended around the beginning or end of World War II. President Obama will have people scour the law books and find whatever therein in taking all government power and placing it within the purview of the White House. This brings us to Israel.
Recently President Obama's research arm dug up an old mention in some law which allowed for the marking of all products made from beyond the Green Line separate from the rest of Israel. This new demarcation was even to include those areas which according to the Oslo Accords and everything which followed as to legally be permitted for Israel to build without restrictions as these areas were to become part of Israel's necessary defense security zone. But why allow International Law to get in the way of slowly starting the dismantling of Israel. The remainder of President Obama's time in office will be spent in an undeclared war on Israel. Marking all items grown, made or in any way touched by hands or found in the lands beyond the Green Line as made or produced in the West Bank. Using the term West Bank is reinforcing the concept that this was and should always be Arab lands. That is why it does not say Judea and Samaria but instead uses the Jordanian name which they used when Jordan illegally attempted to annex these very lands and extended citizenship to the people living in these lands. Jordan even relocated thousands of their citizens to reside in these lands and placed many in the homes of the Jews who were expelled by threat of death. These Jews were sent to live in what remained of Israel after the Arab forces occupied by military force parts of Israel after they declared a war of genocide against the Jews of Israel. These gains are exactly what President Obama wants to start with labeling so it is made to appear not a part of Israel as part of his coming peace initiative.
President Obama plans on making the United States the enforcement arm and leader of the European Union war on Israel. There will be certain European governments who will volunteer to be the front line in this assault standing side-by-side with the United States. Count Sweden as the prime example and likely France and any other European nation with a leftist government. The hoped for aim is to force Israel, by recognizing a state for the Arabs residing in the West Bank of Palestine, into making grand concessions. It is these exact concessions they will claim are preventing there being any negotiations. This is a true statement because Europeans and President Obama with John Kerry being the messaging pigeon have all conveyed their promises for generous concessions from Israel are coming if only the Arab Palestinians would resume negotiations. Abbas turned that on its head as usual and demanded the concessions be granted up-front as he claimed that Israel would otherwise refuse to grant them until the Palestinians made concessions. Abbas claimed that Israel would pocket these additional concessions just as they have done when Palestinians have made concessions previously and Israel simply walked out ending the negotiations. Obviously Abbas cannot mean such after the generous offer made when Yasser Arafat told President Bill Clinton exactly what Israel would necessarily need to do in order to have a peace with the Palestinians. These demands by Arafat included the surrender of most of East Jerusalem to serve as the Palestinian capital and other Israeli land concessions he thought the Israelis would refuse. To Arafat's shock and dismay the Israelis agreed on his terms at which point Arafat walked from the Paris negotiations never to return or even make additional demands. He had been so sure Israel would have rejected and saved the day, he miscalculated. It is for exactly this reason the Arab side has never made set demands for statehood as they fear the Israelis might accept them once again.
The aims of President Obama and his European allies are to pressure Israel by systematically threatening to recognize the Arab State of Palestine without defining the boundaries of this entity which has always been the sticking point. The borders are always to be determined which has presumably been the plan from the beginning which is where the talks inevitably fall short. But President Obama has a new plan, define temporary borders for everybody to recognize as the minimal size and scope of an Arab Palestinian state. These borders would then need to be cleared of any and all Jews which are where the Israeli concessions come in to play. One could expect that the delivery of the F 35 Strike Fighter Jets delivery could be added incentive for Israel to agree to such a plan. The boundaries are very likely to be exactly the same boundaries from before the Six Day War, simply another war of annihilation brought onto the State of Israel. President Obama is determined to found the State of Palestine on the grave of Israel, now or future, of that is what it demands. His aim initially is to provide the State of Palestine the boundaries which Israel and Jordan had agreed to as the end point of hostilities in an armistice of 1949. Since then Jordan made a peace with Israel and when months later Yasser Arafat and Mahmoud Abbas demanded that the King of Jordan at least pass his claim, bogus as they were based on nineteen years of admitted occupation, of the region of Judea and Samaria to the PLO terror organization, he immediately did so despite having relinquished them back to their proper owner, Israel. We promise to produce an article again some day going over the reason the Arab claims to the land are invalid.
Further on the Israel front, President Obama is likely to make some attempt to bring down the Netanyahu led right nationalist government. The plan is to then replace it with a Universalist leftist government which holds Israeli democracy as the more noble goal than Israel, home of the Jews. The push will be to grant Palestinians and other refugees to have access just as simple and easy as Jews on the basis of Right of Return. The predication of this demand is upon the Abbas and other's claims that the Palestinian Arabs are not descended from the same areas in the Arabian Peninsula but are the remainder of the seven Canaanite kingdoms. This, they claim, makes their claims to the lands in question four to five thousands of years and thus older than any Jewish claims. Whatever the logic utilized to form this Palestine, borders is the least of their problems, or perhaps it is their greatest problem. One has to realize that the only borders Yasser Arafat and in turn Mahmoud Abbas have always, since Paris and that debacle, laid their claim on the idea and slogan made famous at almost every demonstration across the Western World with the chanting of, "From the (Jordan) River to the (Mediterranean) Sea, Palestine will be free." The single other reality one must remember is that any lands granted the Palestinians must first be cleansed of its Jewish population, both alive and those entombed there. So the Jews who are being evicted from their lands and having their lives overturned have the additional trauma of their ancestors being reinterred inside Israel with the family reliving the event and explaining why grandmother and grandfather are being buried again. But even if President Obama manages to squeeze Prime Minister Netanyahu sufficiently that he would relent and pull completely out from the areas within Judea and Samaria then President Obama would have gained his other victory, the overturning of the Netanyahu coalition. The object would then be to portray Isaac Herzog as the greatest and most ardent Zionist since Ze'ev Jabotinsky. The greatest problem which would present itself if Netanyahu has become presumably poisonous and toxic to the United States and Europe, which might actually serve him providing him with potentially the best campaign slogan ever as he could claim to be the un-Europe, un-Obama and un-concessions candidate that is pro-one state solution and in offering to buy out any Arab who desires to take the money and start a new life somewhere outside of Israel. There would necessarily need for some to be simply sent off on their way unceremoniously as their presence would prove toxic. Israel should reserve the right to buy out peoples properties and add to that the allowance to resettle elsewhere to be used on those family members of any individual conducting any of terror assault. These deportations would be exactly that, deportations.
The Arabs in the newly annexed areas of Judea and Samaria would receive trial citizenship which would permit them voting in any local elections but be barred for a set period of time and until they complete a series of courses on Biblical Jewish history, Modern Jewish history, the real and true relationship between the Jewish People and how it serves as an anchor for the faith which has held a tenuous grip by a thin strand clinging and living to remember Jerusalem. How for generation upon generation every year we would say and more often than not believe we would some day return. A course in democratic governments and governance which would stress the freedoms equally with the responsibilities would be included in the curriculum. Finally, they should be granted full citizenship after the completion of these requirements which would easily take a minimum of five years and more expectantly a full decade. In the meantime, if one preferred they could declare themselves alien residents and be granted a Visa with that intent. Such a classification would not be transferable. The most important action of all would be Israel taking control of the education system. Where the Islamic madrassahs could be taught by qualified Muslim Israelis who would teach the truth and not the propaganda, the schools run by individual Imams who fervently taught the destruction of the Jewish State would need to face the fate as those who were determined to be arch terror trainers and planners as such an Imam would be a direct threat to the State of Israel.
Israel could serve as the center for an Islamic revelation and transformation bringing the messages of peace, tolerance, refinement of the individual and the soul, the Mecca Quran over the more violent and war based Medina Quran. Our brief and straightforward definition and delineation of the driving forces which brought on the revelations and why they might have altered in tone can be found along with numerous links added by our readers along with others all in the comments here at our article Which Quran, Mecca or Medina? The changes would take time as the indoctrination of the Arab society has been so immersive and complete that it will be like deprogramming cult members who wish to leave a harmful environment but are enslaved to their present situation and must be led free of its all-encompassing immersive grasp. The good news is once Israel committed to retaining all the lands which were promised her by the entirety of the League of Nations, many conferences and treaties, and most importantly by International Law, the violence would immediately decrease and over time that trend would continue and the economic situation in the area would bloom and have meteoric growth as would Israel as the vast majority of the lands are basically uninhabited. This would also make Israel more readily defendable and would grant central hub of Israel around Tel Aviv and also to Jerusalem. This would provide a better life for future generations and many of those who were in the majority but were suppressed into submission which is what defines modern Islam, the submission of the human factor and of the humans themselves and that is what transformation and reformation would all be about, but this too is for another day. For the here and now it is best to be prepared for radical changes in the United States and the most active and virulent interference in the rule of law and governance of Israel by European governments, the European Union, the United States State Department and White House, the European union and Israeli NGOs who are largely if not almost entirely funded from abroad if all of their contributions both directly and those indirectly arranged through other NGOs such as the New Israel Fund and overtly-wealthy individuals such as George Soros.

The O'Hara Catholic School in Eugene, Oregon, United States, was established in 1889.  It is part of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Portland in Oregon.

O'Hara Catholic School is a school of St. Mary Roman Catholic Church.  It is a preschool through 8th grade school.
It is accredited through Western Catholic Education Association.

History
Fr. Francis S. Beck (pastor from 1887-1894) saw the need to establish a Catholic school in the Eugene area.  He arranged for some Benedictine Sisters from Mt. Angel to run a school in Eugene from a "four-room building which faced Willamette Street." The sisters arrived in 1889.  The school was called the "Academy of Our Lady of Victory" - affectionately known as St. Mary School. Later in 1895, the Sisters of Mercy took over for the school.  During Fr. John A. Moran's time as pastor (from 1911-1920), the Sisters of Mercy took over the Eugene General Hospital on College Hill in 1912.  Consequently, Fr. Moran arranged to have six Sisters of the Holy Names come to run the school in 1916.

In 1919, Fr. Moran had purchased property in the West 11th Avenue block between Charnelton and Lincoln streets.  Later, Fr. Edwin V. O'Hara (pastor from 1920-1929) would move the Holy Names sisters in 1921 to the house at 1116 Charnelton St., which is currently part of the Poole-Larsen Funeral Chapel.  The school building was moved to northeast corner of 11th and Lincoln.

In 1921, the State Superintendent of Schools, J. A. Churchill, would accept St. Mary as a "standard school" of the State of Oregon.

During the time of Fr. Edmund Murnane (pastor from 1950-1969) an eight-classroom addition to St. Francis High School was built on the property on 18th Avenue and Jefferson Street for a junior high school, which was used for the upper grades of St. Mary School.  It was called St. Mary's Junior High School. Work began on the additions in January 1955. St. Francis High School was relocated to what is now Marist High School.  All of St. Mary school was moved to the location on 18th and Jefferson in June 1969.

Under Fr. Emil H. Kies (pastor from 1969-1987), St. Mary Grade School became an area school in which "participating parishes selected the lay members of a policy-making school board and each parish agreed to subsidize those students of St. Mary's School who lived within its boundaries."  The plan was accepted in 1971.  It was in the fall of 1978 that the school was renamed O'Hara Catholic School in honor of Bishop Edwin V. O'Hara, a former pastor of St. Mary's Parish and School.

In the late 1960s, the school ceased to be the "sisters' school" with the decline of religious vocations and the increase of lay teachers.  Today O'Hara Catholic School is staffed completely by lay teachers with religious and diocesan priests coming regularly to visit the classrooms.

J&K govt will enact law for death penalty for rape of minors: Mehbooba
Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti today said her government will enact a new law to make rape of minors punishable by death and asserted that justice will be delivered in the rape and murder case of an eight-year-old Bakerwal girl in Kathua district.
The rape and murder of the girl from the nomadic community has created a controversy after lawyers in Jammu called for a shutdown on Wednesday, demanding the case be handed over to the Central Bureau of Investigation.
"We will never ever let another child suffer in this way. We will bring a new law that will make the death penalty mandatory for those who rape minors, so that little girl's case becomes the last, Mehbooba wrote on Twitter.
"I want to assure the entire nation that I stand committed not just to ensure justice (to the girl) but also seek exemplary punishment for those responsible for a crime whose brutal savagery has shamed humanity, she said.
Earlier in the day, the chief minister said proper procedures were being followed in the case and investigations were on the fast track.
"The law will not be obstructed by the irresponsible actions & statements of a group of people. Proper procedures are being followed, investigations are on the fast track & justice will be delivered," Mehbooba tweeted.
On Monday, lawyers in Kathua had tried to prevent the crime branch from filing the chargesheet in the case.
The chargesheet has revealed some chilling details about how the girl was allegedly kidnapped, drugged, raped inside a place of worship before being killed.
Opposition National Conference leader Omar Abdullah lashed out at the chief minister for not taking any action against two BJP ministers who had attended a rally held in support of the persons accused in the case.
"What rubbish! They are HER ministers, not the Hon(ourable) PM's. The way for her to express her displeasure is to sack them in Jammu not come & leak her alleged displeasure in Delhi," Omar wrote on his Twitter handle. -- PTI

Economics junior Ryan Camarillo is a member of the Texas Running Club. He was a member of the men's track team at UT-Tyler and hopes to walk on to the UT track and field team.
Ryan Camarillo, economics junior and San Antonio native, never expected to be running competitively, but when a middle school coach asked him to try out for the track team, he decided to give it a shot. So far, it has proved to be a decision worthwhile, as he is now in his eighth year of competitive running.
Originally, Camarillo agreed to try out for the club running team for the satisfaction he received from running.
"Seeing how hard I can push myself mentally and physically and the runner's high you get afterwards were some of the reasons that pulled me into running early on," Camarillo said.
Camarillo, who also ran for UT-Tyler's men's track team before transferring to UT-Austin for his sophomore year, has made a big impact on the growth of the Texas Running Club.
Over the years, his love for running has evolved, becoming less of a competitive endeavor and more of a social outlet.
"Joining Texas Running Club really showed me running competitively isn't the most important thing about running, but the amazing friendships you make through the club," Camarillo said.
While Camarillo enjoys the fun, friendly environment of the Texas Running Club, his preparation habits for meets ultimately show that he takes this sport and its responsibilities very seriously.
Camarillo said he is focused on improving as a runner and makes sure to keep track of his progress.
Although trimming his time is currently one of his more important goals, Camarillo also has aspirations to try to become a member of the Texas track and field team.
"Next season, if I can cut my time, I would like to try to walk-on here on the UT track team," Camarillo said.
Sanya Richards-Ross leads the way in the women's 400-meter preliminary at the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Trials in Eugene, Ore.
Former Longhorn runner and five-time NCAA Champion Sanya Richards-Ross is attempting to qualify for her third Olympics and redeem herself from what she considers a subpar performance in the 2008 Beijing Summer Games.
Those emotions and circumstances still resulted in a bronze medal in the 400-meter race for Richards-Ross. Currently trying to qualify for both the 200- and 400-meter races, Sanya said she believes she is more mentally prepared to deal with the pressures of participating in the Olympics.
"I've gotten older, I've realized that it's something that I've actually had to work on, and I have learned through life experiences more how to deal with it," Richards-Ross said.
Despite winning gold with Team USA in the 4x400-meter relay in Beijing, Richards-Ross didn't win the race that mattered to her the most.
That motivation drove her to win both the IAAF World Athlete of the Year and the Jesse Owens Award in 2009. Earning 11 All-American honors during her time at the University of Texas from 2003-04, Richards-Ross remains one of the best runners in the world.
She also credits her training to her ability to remain focused and deal with the various pressures in preparation for the 2012 games.
Richards-Ross and her coaches have had to intensify training to help her reach her goal of making both the 200- and 400-meter teams.
Brooks Marlow makes a tag on a Duke baserunner during the Longhorns' 5-2 loss on Sunday. Marlow started at second base for Jordan Etier, who is serving a suspension.
For Brooks Marlow, one home run was a great way to start out his collegiate career, and two made it even better. But when the winningest coach in college baseball history is singing your praise, you're having a great day.
"That was the brightest spot of the day for me," said Texas coach Augie Garrido, referencing Marlow's two homers in UT's season-opener against Duke.
"The unexpected play played a huge part in it. Where'd that come from? We hadn't seen many home runs, so I didn't think either one of them would go over the fence because nothing does," he said.
Funny thing is Marlow wasn't even supposed to be the starter at second going into the season. The freshman is just filling in for the suspended Jordan Etier, who is out four games after an arrest in the fall for possession of marijuana.
But Marlow has certainly made a strong case for the starting spot when Etier comes back, or at least the opportunity to slide over to shortstop or DH.
Marlow started out his first game on Saturday afternoon against Duke in perhaps the worst way possible for a hitter, striking out swinging, but from there his day would only improve.
In his next at bat, Marlow connected on the fourth pitch and sent a screaming line drive out to right field that barely cleared the fence to sneak into the bullpen.
The next inning Marlow stepped to the plate with a runner on first and sent the ball out to right with a giant hack on an inside fastball in what looked like a replay of the homer the inning before.
For the Longhorns the home run is a rare thing — as a team they only hit 17 home runs all of last season — especially coming from a guy that is only 5-foot-9 and 175 pounds.
However, it wasn't all about the long ball for Marlow, and in the next game he played some traditional Texas small ball. In his first at bat, Marlow dropped a sac bunt to advance the runner to second. In the second inning, with a runner on third, Marlow did what the situation called for and hit a deep fly ball into left field to score the runner. Finally, in what could be his most impressive at bat of the game, the freshman worked a four-pitch walk, resisting the urge to swing against a pitcher that had been wild for much of the contest.
On Sunday Marlow's performance at the plate cooled off with the rest of his teammates in the 5-2 loss to Duke, but he still managed to go 1-4 including a couple of well-hit balls.


Flo's V-8 Cafe is straight out of the film franchise, and it's proven to be a great location for eats since the park opened in 2012. We've loved dinner here, which includes yummy grub like Roast Beef and Cheddar and a Veggie Tater Bake!
But honestly, even if the food was mediocre (or worse!), we'd still come for the ambiance. Check out the details! First there's the spot-on exterior with retro styling.
Inside, the retro, auto feels continue! Car seat booths abound, with gorgeous upholstery.
…and finally the tribute museum to Doc himself and his racing career.
The ordering area has lots of neon and metal — with lighted display cases providing a serious throw-back to decades past.
The breakfast menu here hasn't changed much since our Disneyland correspondent Heather (@DiningInDisney) stopped in for a bite nearly six years ago. And that's a good thing because it's a simple but well-done menu. I had to dig once again into one of the more unique items: Brioche French Toast.
This sweet breakfast is topped with Salted Caramel Banana Sauce and is baked into dense, carbohydrate-happy pieces… kind of a bread pudding/monkey bread kind of feel to this one. The bread itself was tasty and packed with cinnamon, while the topping was seriously dessert-like. Definitely not too dry!
For a more traditional option, order the American Breakfast. This plate of satisfying food is comprised of Scrambled Eggs, Bacon, Breakfast Potatoes, and a Biscuit. The potatoes are really good,with tons of peppers and onion mixed in and tiny little potato cubes. The biscuit was a little meh, but overall, it was delicious and comforting.
The kids' menu offers three options, including this: Waffles. Mater Waffles, people! These are served with Turkey Bacon and Fresh Fruit.
We love the thoughtful option of turkey bacon, and who can resist the charms of Radiator Springs' resident tow truck? A surefire hit for the kiddos! Note that they also have Lightning McQueen waffles here, we just weren't served any on this particular morning.
Oh, and FYI — my super picky kiddo (who regularly doesn't eat…well…anything that isn't french fries) totally went for these. So, there's hope for your kid, too!
Flo's still killin' it, travelers! This is the perfect place to fuel up before or after hitting the streets for some of Cars Lands' awesome rides. Ka-chow!
What's your go-to breakfast when visiting Disneyland or California Adventure? Let us know in the comments!
Breakfast at Flo's is on our must do list every time we go to Disneyland. Our favorite is the chicken tamale breakfast – chicken tamale topped with scrambled eggs, salsa verde and pico de gallo. Especially good on a chilly morning and a great way to start the day!
I was just visiting the west coast last week and I had the french toast for breakfast! The restaurant was almost empty, at 10am on a Saturday. I had the french toast and it was soon good. It would be nice if it was served with some mixed fruit or something else a little more nutritious.
I love the brioche French toast! I had it almost 3 years ago, and your review inspires me to go back there for breakfast! I live in Long Beach, CA and am not far away—I usually eat breakfast at home before my day at Disneyland or CA Adventure. Now, I'll make it a point to have breakfast at Flo's! Thanks for your fun review!


Mr & Mrs Garner were married in the idyllic and prestigious Mansion House in St. Helens.
This wedding had it all: Horses, Carriages, Doves and even an owl flying down the aisle with the ring! The weather was beautiful and ideal for shooting outdoors which gave us a good opportunity to capture the couple as they arrived. The Mansion House has a highly decorative interior and allowed for a close and intimate post-wedding shoot with the newly wedded couple. Mosaic tiling, period furniture and ornate woodwork provided a classic setting for this beautiful, stylish shoot.


we use to communicate and the X-ray machines that help doctors diagnose diseases. In this Very Short Introduction, David Blockley explores the nature and practice of engineering--its history, its scope, and its relationship with art, craft, science, and technology. He begins with its early roots, ranging from Archimedes to some of the great figures of engineering such as Brunel and Marconi, right up to the modern day, describing the five ages of engineering--gravity, heat, electromagnetism, information, and systems--and showing how they relate to one another. Blockley discusses some of engineering's great achievements as well as its great disasters--such as when things went catastrophically wrong at Chernobyl--using examples of everyday tools to reveal how engineering actually works. He also looks at some of the contributions engineers will have to make in the future in order to sustain and promote human well-being.

Most items that farmers sell are not subject to sales tax. The payment systems that Small Farm Central uses does not calculate sales tax automatically when your customer checks out of the store. However if you are selling something that is taxable the fix is simple; just add the tax into the price of the item, but remember to make sure that you indicate that you are doing so on your website, so your customers know that tax is covered in the cost.
If you use PayPal or Authorize.net as your payment method, this will be the only way to collect sales tax from your customers, since with these systems the payment is instant and you will not be able to charge them tax later. However, if you use the invoice payment method, you can choose to adjust your customer's invoice after they have checked out and send them an update to let them know the new total with the sales tax.
First, you will want to make sure that your customers know that you will be sending them an updated invoice which will include a charge for sales tax. You can do so on your website in areas that you list your products for sale or talk about ordering. Navigate to: Sell > Configure > Display Settings to add this information to your ordering pages. Since your customers will also getting their order details and the total before you are able to go in and add the tax to their invoice, you will also want to mention that they will receive a new invoice with the sales tax added in the confirmation email that your customers automatically receive when that make a purchase on your website. Navigate to: Sell > Configure > Email Settings to make a note of this in the confirmation email.
Once an order has been placed, you will need to go in and adjust the invoice for that order and add the tax. However, you will also need to create an item called "Sales Tax" in Ecommerce so that you can add this item to the invoice. You will only need to do this once, as you will be able to change the price of the item for whatever calculation the sales tax comes out to. To create this item navigate to: Sell > Manage > Items. Then click on the "Create New Item" link in the yellow header. Name the item, write a description if you like, and then choose a department in the "Pricing and Inventory" section to add the item to. It doesn't matter which one, since we will disable the item in the next step so that it doesn't show to the public.Next mark the price as $0.01 and click the checkbox next to "Ignore Quantity Availalbe". After you save the item and return to the Item Manager, disable the item so that it does not show up as an item that the public can choose in your department.
When you receive the email notifying you that someone has placed an order, find the order in your Control Panel by navigating to Sell > Orders & Reports > View Orders. Open the order and use the total to calculate the appropriate amount of sale tax based on your region's sales tax laws. Add the "Sales Tax" item to the invoice by choosing it from the drop-down menu and clicking the "add item" button. Now simply click the edit button (this looks like a pencil and piece of paper) next to the item and adjust the price to reflect the calculated tax.
Now your User's invoice correctly shows their order and added sales tax. This will also be reflected in the Balance tab of their User account.
To notify your customer of the updated totals, simply click the Send Order Confirmation button to generate an email with full order details to the customer.

Hawks to pursue killers targeting police
Monday 28 November 2016 - 1:15pm
STOCK IMAGE: South African Police Services, SAPS, Police
CAPE TOWN – Police will relentlessly pursue those responsible for police killings, the Directorate for Priority Crime Investigation (Hawks) said on Sunday.
This followed the murder of three police officers in Cape Town this past week. The attacks also left three other officers wounded, Captain Lloyd Ramovha said.
READ: Hawks dismiss ex officer's claims about McBride
Constable Masibonge Mqwada, 33, was shot dead in Kraaifontein while reportedly dropping off a relative just after 1am on Saturday. Three armed assailants attacked in an apparent hijacking attempt.
Constable Thandoxolo Ndiki, 30, was found lying on a pavement in Delft at about 3.30am on the same day, with what appeared to be gunshot wounds to his upper body. He was taken to hospital, but later died.
His vehicle was recovered in Muizenberg on Sunday afternoon. The motive for the attack is still unclear.
Constable Amanda Ladlokova was shot dead on Tuesday night while on duty in Philippi East.
The circumstances surrounding these two murders were being investigated and one suspect had appeared in court during the week for the murder of Ladlokova, Ramovha said.
Hawks head Lieutenant-General Berning Ntlemeza said police attacks remained a priority crime as this threatened the safety of communities.
"We shall continue to relentlessly pursue all [those] responsible in carrying out the directorate's mandate of ensuring that all people are, and feel safe in the country. An attack on a police officer is an attack on the state," he said.

Green Motor | Low budget EV: Tesla working on a $30,000 electric car
MotorBlog.com | rb 2013-05-20 Featured, Green, Most wanted, MotorNews
They say that Tesla is the Apple of the automotive industry. I somewhat agree but I think the car company still has a lot to prove. It has come up with a number of great electric vehicles. The next one of which could be released within 3 or 4 years.
The upcoming EV is expected to be pricey but will be the most technologically advanced. The follow up to the current Tesla Model S might go way past the 200 miles/charge. It's currently priced at $100,000 but Tesla could be offering a car within a more affordable range.
Elon Musk hinted it could be priced at $30,000 and could compete with the BMW 3 Series. Details are scarce but we're expecting more hints from Musk himself.

Richard H. Thaler won the 2017 Nobel Prize in Economic Science for "his contributions to behavioral economics."
In most of his work, Thaler has challenged the standard economist's model of rational human beings. He showed some of the ways that people systematically depart from rationality and some of the decisions that resulted. He has used these insights to propose ways to help people save, and save more, for retirement. Thaler also advocates something called "libertarian paternalism."
Economists generally assume that more choices are better than fewer choices. But if that were so, argues Thaler, people would be upset, not happy, when the host at a dinner party removes the pre-dinner bowl of cashews. Yet many of us are happy that it's gone. Purposely taking away our choice to eat more cashews, he argues, makes up for our lack of self-control. This simple contradiction between the economists' model of rationality and actual human behavior, plus many more that Thaler has observed, leads him to divide the population into "Econs" and "Humans." Econs, according to Thaler, are people who are economically rational and fit the model completely. Humans are the vast majority of people.
Thaler (1980) noticed another anomaly in people's thinking that is inconsistent with the idea that people are rational. He called it the "endowment effect." People must be paid much more to give something up (their "endowment") than they are willing to pay to acquire it. So, to take one of his examples from a survey, people, when asked how much they are willing to accept to take on an added mortality risk of one in one thousand, would give, as a typical response, the number $10,000. But a typical response by people, when asked how much they would pay to reduce an existing risk of death by one in one thousand, was $200.
One of Thaler's most-cited articles is Werner F. M. De Bondt and Richard Thaler (1985). In that paper they compared the stocks of "losers" and "winners." They defined losers as stocks that had recently dropped in value and winners as stocks that had recently increased in value, and their hypothesis was that people overreact to news, driving the prices of winners too high and the prices of losers too low. Consistent with that hypothesis, they found that the portfolio of losers outperformed the portfolio of winners.
One of the issues to which Thaler applied his thinking is that of saving for retirement. In his book Misbehaving, Thaler argues that if everyone were an Econ, it wouldn't matter whether employers' default option was not to sign up their employees for tax-advantaged retirement accounts and let them opt in or to sign them all up and let employees opt out. There are transactions costs associated with getting out of either default option, of course, but they are small relative to the stakes involved. For that reason, argued Thaler, either option should lead to about the same percentage of employees taking advantage of the program. Yet Brigitte G. Madrian and Dennis F. Shea found[1] that before a company they studied had tried automatic enrollment, only 49 percent of employees had joined the plan. When enrollment became the default, 84 percent of employees stayed enrolled. That is a large difference relative to what most economists would have expected.
Thaler and economist Shlomo Benartzi, arguing that people tend to be myopic and heavily discount the future, helped design a private pension plan to enable people to save more. Called Save More Tomorrow, it automatically increases the percent of their gross pay that people save in 401(k) plans every time they get a pay raise. That way, people can save more without ever having to cut their current consumption expenditures. Many "Econs" were presumably already doing that, but this plan helps Humans, as well. When a midsize manufacturing firm implemented their plan, participants, at the end of four annual raises, had almost quadrupled their saving rate.
In their book Nudge, Thaler, along with co-author Cass Sunstein, a law professor, used behavioral economics to argue for "nudging" people to make better decisions. In each person, they argued, are an impulsive Doer and a farsighted Planner. In the retirement saving example above, the Doer wants to spend now and the Planner wants to save for retirement. Which preferences should be taken account of in public policy?
As noted earlier, Thaler believes in "libertarian paternalism." In Nudge, he and Sunstein lay out the concept. The basic idea is to have the government set paternalist rules as defaults but let people choose to opt out at low cost. One example is laws requiring motorcyclists to wear helmets. That is paternalism. How to make it "libertarian paternalist?" They favorably cite New York Times columnist John Tierney's proposal that motorcyclists who don't want to wear helmets be required to take an extra driving course and show proof of health insurance.
In a review of Nudge, Thomas Leonard writes:
The irony is that behavioral economics, having attacked Homo Economicus as an empirically false description of human choice, now proposes, in the name of paternalism, to enshrine the very same fellow as the image of what people should want to be. Or, more precisely, what paternalists want people to be. For the consequence of dividing the self has been to undermine the very idea of true preferences. If true preferences don't exist, the libertarian paternalist cannot help people get what they truly want. He can only make like an old fashioned paternalist, and give people what they should want.[2]
In some areas, Thaler seems to have departed from the view that long-term considerations should guide economic policy. A standard view among economists is that after a flood or hurricane, a government should refrain from imposing price controls on crucial items such fresh water, food, or plywood. That way, goes the economic reasoning, suppliers in other parts of the country have an incentive to move goods to where they are needed most and buyers will be careful not to stock up as much immediately after the flood or hurricane. In 2012, when asked about a proposed anti-price-gouging law in Connecticut, Thaler answered succinctly, "Not needed. Big firms hold prices firm. 'Entrepreneurs' with trucks help meet supply. Are the latter covered? If so, [the proposed law is] bad."[3] What he was getting at is that, to some extent, we get the best of both worlds. Companies like Wal-Mart, worried about their reputation with consumers, will refrain from price gouging but will stock up in advance; one-time entrepreneurs, not worried about their reputations, will supply high-priced items to people who want them badly. But in a Marketplace interview in September 2017,[4] Thaler said, "A time of crisis is a time for all of us to pitch in; it's not a time for all of us to grab." He seemed to have moved from the mainstream economists' view to the popular view.
One relatively unexplored area in Thaler's work is how government officials show the same irrationality that many of us show and the implications of that fact for government policy.
Thaler earned his Bachelor of Arts degree with a major in economics at Case Western Reserve University in 1965, his Masters degree in economics from the University of Rochester in 1970, and his Ph.D. in economics from the University of Rochester in 1974. He was a professor at the University of Rochester's Graduate School of Management from 1974 to 1978 and a professor at Cornell University's Johnson School of Management from 1978 to 1995. He has been a professor at the University of Chicago's Booth School of Business since 1995.

Nicholson Ranch is a state-of-the-art, five-level gravity-flow facility, designed to gently move wine through its stages of production. Gentle handling is especially important to preserve the delicate flavors and aromas of wines, especially those of Pinot Noir. After being de-stemmed, the grapes slide from the crush pad to the fermentation room below. From the press the wine flows into a raised settling tank in the cave and then is gravity fed into the barrels in the cave. Finally, a sunken blending tank room holds the wine just prior to bottling. Nicholson Ranch is reminiscent of early California structures, with double thick walls and deep overhangs. The doors, windows and tongue and groove ceilings were all constructed of native fir. Salvaged old growth redwood was used for the lintels, shutters and trellises. The roof is of variegated slate trimmed with copper gutters. The exterior finish uses a special French lime technique in subtle earthen colors to blend with the hills. The design, materials and palate were all carefully selected to create a winery that gracefully blends with its California wine country setting.

The 2002 estate Chardonnay is the finest estate Chardonnay for us to date. We knew this the moment the grapes came off the vine in loose, child's fist size clusters. This wine is a blend of fruit from all four Chardonnay blocks on the Ranch. Coconut rind and candied pineapple recall the estate Chardonnays of 2000 and 2001, which were made from Clone 4 fruit. For the first time, however, it is balanced with the lychee nut, flinty edge of Dijon Clones 76, 95 and 96. The palate weight of the wine is the heaviest to date, spreading into crême brulée, vanilla cream and wildflower honey. It has a sappiness to it that none of the past wines have had. The finish is long and creamy, increased in length by the framing acidity and wet stone/slatey character of the Dijon clones.
The nose shows appealing notes of marzipan, sweet butter, orange marmalade and fig and trails off to hints of pineapple. On the palate this wine shows immediately the richness from the low yields of 2003. The full, rich mouthfeel gives way to loads of honeydew melon, cantaloupe, lemon zest and tremendous leesy richness on the finish.
Pale gold complexion. Nose of lychee, lemon meringue, vanilla custard and wet river rock. The clone 4 in the blend provides some tropical notes of shredded coconut, banana chips and guava. The dijon clones contribute a citrusy minerality and the smell and texture of the underlying framing acidity. The fruit quality on the palate is hard to pin down, balancing the two ends of the Chardonnay spectrum: sweet and fat and racy and focused. The finish is very clean and long with the abundance of fruit sustained and framed nicely by firm acidity.
This is our first offering of Merlot from our estate vineyard. Originally planted simply because Ramona and Deepak enjoy drinking nice Merlots, the rolling hillside site and typically cool "Carneros" climate have combined to produce grapes that fully express classic Merlot qualities. The dominant aromatics on the 2002 Merlot are sweet black cherry, boysenberry and earth. With a bit more time in the glass, sweet oak and Earl Grey tea come forward as well. On the palate, there is a sweet entry with youthful tannins, yielding to hints of roast beef, cocoa powder, Scharffenberger bittersweet chocolate and toasted rye bread. The finish is long, lingering and tapers off with more notes of mixed chocolate. This wine drinks well now, though decanting for a couple of hours allows the Merlot to fully express itself.

This is our first offering of Pinot Noir from anywhere other than our own estate. We will be offering a Sonoma Coast bottling every year for the foreseeable future sourced from a select cast of vineyards. Our first wine is an eight barrel bottling from a few small, young vineyards within sight of the Pacific Ocean. Sonoma Coast as an appellation has supported wine grapes for quite some time, but in very limited quantities. Because of this, we didn't quite know what to expect in terms of aromatic and flavor profile. Tasting the now bottled wine, we are pleased to find some classic cool weather elements: vibrant garnet color, floral nose, minty/peppery palate and good acidity. Jeff Ames, our assistant winemaker, remarked that the wine reminded him of the '96 Williams-Selyem "Hirsch Vineyard" which to us is a supreme compliment.
Unlike any Pinot we have released so far, the nose on this wine explodes with pomegranate, cherry, earth, red fruits and jasmine. This wine is very Burgundian in its earthy qualities, but the obviously sweet, ripe fruit shows its California heritage as well. On the palate this wine is medium to full bodied with a complex and sweet entry showing damp earth, persimmon, roasted duck and black cherries. The finish slowly trails off while offering up faint hints of cinnamon.
From the day of harvest we knew this Chardonnay would be exquisite. The loose, child's-fist sized clusters have yielded up intense, elegant flavors. The nose offers notes of spicy vanilla, hay, pineapple and sweet, well-integrated oak. The palate weight is the richest to date, spreading into crème brulée and wildflower honey. The long velvety smooth finish is enhanced by the framing acidity and wet stone character of the Dijon clones. Even with the terrific richness, the acids provide balance to allow this wine to be consumed quite easily either with food or on its own. The 2002 Natalie is drinkable now, but should only improve over the next five years with proper cellaring.
This is the first Cuvée Natalie that we used a true best barrel selection throughout the entire cellar. All 36 barrels of Chardonnay were tasted and given individual scores from 1 to 10. With a rough projected case quantity in mind, we selected the top ten barrels for the 2003 Cuvée Natalie. Greenish gold in appearance, this Natalie is comprised of 70% Dijon clones and 30% clone 4. The new French oak gives the nose nice roundness and balance working with instead of against the acid backbone and citrus notes of the wine. The palate is perfectly fleshed out, benefiting from a full year of bottle age. The fruit breaks out into lime, lemon, guava and honeydew melon. Like all Nicholson Ranch Chardonnays, the acidity more than absorbs the oak with the former helping to prolong the finish and the latter helping to round out the entry and the mid-palate of the wine.
On the nose this wine offers a lot of spicy red fruits, rosemary, violets and rubbing spices. On the palate it has a medium to full weight with well-integrated acids and tannins. The rich mouthfeel is backed up by notes of roasted meats, rosemary, cherry pie, bay leaf and bing cherries. Long and smooth on the finish, this wine deserves a couple hours in a decanter to really show its stuff. In the cellar it should hit its stride in about three years.
Cactus Hill is the hardest wine for us to put together each year. We harvest, and vinify separately, five different Pinot clones from the estate: Dijon selections 113, 114, 115, 667 and 777. After 10 months in barrel, we sit down to evaluate each wine and its relative merits. With the 2003s, our order of preference from favorite to least was 667, 777, 115, 113 and 114. Clones 667 and 777 showed great completeness. They could stand alone as individual bottlings. Clone 115 was all muscle and backbone with a dark core of black fruits. Clone 113 shined aromatically and possessed great sweetness and purity on the finish, but was somewhat hollow in the middle. A nice all-round wine, the 114 started strong but faded fast on the finish. Our approach with the 2003 Cactus involved two blending trials. The first trial was to create the heart of the wine by determining the perfect blend of 667 and 777. The second was to discover how much backbone (115) and finishing sweetness (113) our wine needed for completeness. In the end, we went with 40% 667, 40% 777, 15% 115 and 5% 113.
This is our first offering of Syrah from fruit grown elsewhere than Nicholson Ranch. We didn't stray too far, however, as this fruit comes from our well-known neighbor to the south of Nicholson Ranch, Lee Hudson. Our winemaking technique for this Syrah included a five-day cold soak, where we held the temperature of the must to 55 degrees to bring out the aromatics. The nose on this Syrah gives off crushed black cherries, violets, spice, oak, country ham and a bit of Christmas spices. On the palate the wine is medium weight with seared meats, rhubarb, wet earth, balsamic vinegar and olives. Youthful tannins come through on the persistent finish. Though approachable now, this wine is only going to get better over the next three to five years. Decanting for an hour or two brings greater depth and complexity to the wine.
We are making quite a bit of Syrah these days. Taking its place alongside Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, Syrah will become a cornerstone varietal for Nicholson Ranch. With only an acre of estate Syrah, and a belief that "cool climate" Syrah was a worthy pursuit, 2002 saw the inauguration of our Los Carneros Syrah program with the production of 588 cases made with fruit from the Hudson Vineyard on the Napa side of the Carneros. Fruit for the 2003 Los Carneros is from Las Madres Vineyard in the Sonoma Carneros. Bottled simply as "Los Carneros," it will become a staple at Nicholson Ranch for the foreseeable future. This new Los Carneros bottling differs widely from the 2002 version. Where the 2002 wine was very European in style, the Las Madres version is all California; lush black fruits with a big cooking spice nose, complemented by every savory sensation known to humankind. We are so pleased with this wine that, beginning in 2004, it will be vineyard-designated as "Las Madres." I hope you enjoy the new Los Carneros Syrah, and I encourage you to follow, and sample, our growing Syrah program!


Class actions provide a powerful mechanism for individuals to protect their rights against large companies. When the actions of a large company harm a large group of people, a class action lawsuit enables all of those people to collectively sue that company, thus putting them on equal footing. The Law Offices of Robert W. Sink has successfully litigated, and continues to litigate, numerous class action lawsuits in both state and federal courts.
Class action lawsuits handled by the Law Offices of Robert W. Sink include a settlement valued at $8.3 million, which was brought on behalf of female consumers who claimed that they were overcharged for certain birth control pills. (See Ovcon notice).
