If you have put in a wireless DIY residence safety system, you possibly can set it to name you or up to 10 other folks in case of a break-in. However, you can't set 911 as one of many numbers to call, and there is no police backup. The system is purchased extra by house dwellers than home owners. Making a home secure from intruders is unquestionably on the top of most people's priority lists. Unfortunately, not everybody realizes what it actually takes to achieve this very important goal. Keep studying the ideas and insights that comply with under, and you will quickly have what it takes to maintain your most necessary investment safe.
Make certain to clear your yard of brush and lifeless wood within the summertime. These can pose a fire hazard resulting from warmth and storms with lightning. You possibly can forestall disasters by preserving your yard clean. Be certain the wires of your own home security system are utterly hidden. A burglar will simply reduce the wires if he can see them. Be sure the wires are put in inside the walls of your home. This will add safety.
Watch what you say on social media. Within the period of constant Twitter and Facebook updates, it's simple to develop into too lax on what you share. Irrespective of how excited you're about your upcoming vacation, social media just isn't the place to broadcast your journey. It's too straightforward for somebody who just isn't a pal to be taught of your plans, allowing them to interrupt in once they know you are away.
Be sure that your valuables can't be seen from outdoors the home. Although it's good to have huge home windows to get a fantastic view of the outdoors, it is also easier for burglars to look into your house. For those who've got street dealing with windows, make sure and keep them lined. If it is advisable store firewood, keep it not less than 30 yards from your home. It is a flamable merchandise, which may cause severe injury to your house if it catches fireplace. Purchase a shed or isolate a bit of your yard for all items that it is advisable store that match this description.
By no means rely on a spring-latch lock, as an alternative have a deadbolt put in. Spring-latch locks are easy to get by means of with a simple bank card. Deadbolts can't be opened so merely and will thwart any burglar who attempts to get in. The price of installing a deadbolt might be worth it in such a state of affairs. Whereas posting photos of your self on vacation to Twitter or Fb may be nice, it is also an open invitation to crooks asking them to break into your property – in spite of everything, you are not there! Share your photographs when you get again as an alternative to ensure nobody is aware of your home is vacant.
A survey taken by police officials reveals that eighty five percent of them believe a home is extra protected when outfitted with a security system. Also, 60 % of tried burglaries are unsuccessful when the targeted house has a safety system. For this reason, home insurance firms give a discount if the house has a safety system. At all times check references before letting anyone work on your own home. Don't hesitate to hire somebody to run a background test if in case you have doubts. You do not know whether or not the contractor, maid, or repairman that you've got hired is reliable and handing them your keys may very well be a pricey mistake.
Ensure that your home windows are thick and safe to cut back the possibility of a break in. If you wish to have extra protection, install a system that reads when a window is broken, signifying an intrusion. Try to improve your windows each three years because it serves as an important a part of your private home's security system. Guantee that your house quantity are visible from the street. If there's an emergency, it can take longer for the police to locate your house if the numbers are concealed in any approach or too small. Happily, it's quick and simple to repair this drawback.
While choosing your alarm system, ask about protection for home windows and motion detection in addition to doorways. Home windows supply easy accessibility to a potential thief. Get an alarm that may set off if either the doors or windows are opened. That is the pinnacle of safety. If your alarm goes off ceaselessly, get it fastened as quickly as potential. In case your neighbors suppose your alarm is at all times going off, they are unlikely to report it to the police. Meaning it could be an actual break in, however nobody will really do anything about it.
On the finish of the night time, close the drapes and blinds to your house. Along with giving you more privateness, this blocks the valuable items in your home from view.

Tutti Frutti, build-your-own pizza in Salisbury's future
jcox6@delmarvanow.com
The Tutti Frutti location at Sea Gull Square melted away in the middle of this past winter.
But now it's back, just in time for summer.
The self-serve frozen yogurt parlor is under new ownership, according to Matt Trader of Rinnier Development Co., the developer of the mixed-use complex on the Salisbury University campus.
"The group we sold it to are very savvy business investors, who recognized the value and upside of this particular store location," Trader said in a statement. "The Tutti Frutti at Sea Gull Square was an attractive asset because at one time it was in the top 10 percent of all Tutti Frutti stores, which speaks volumes when you consider that Tutti Frutti is the world's largest self-serve frozen yogurt brand with over 700 stores in 30 countries."
Here are some other notable recent business dealings from around Delmarva:
In the latest sign of a hot market for medical offices, a suite leased by Peninsula Regional Medical Center at 560 Riverside Drive has sold for $310,000. The office in question is unit A206, if you're keeping score at home.
The former Chesapeake Fire Museum in Hebron now finds itself in the medical industry. The 27013 Lillian Street property was bought for $425,000 by the local food-animal research firm AHPharma. The four buildings total more than 24,000 square feet of space. The company plans to lease some of the extra space.
Everyone loves "fast casual" restaurants. And who doesn't love pizza? That's the basic business plan at Your Pie, which is opening its first location in the area at the Centre at Salisbury mall. A franchisee has signed a 10-year lease for a spot next to the Regal Movie Theaters. Your Pie is known for its build-your-own-pizza but also serves up sandwiches and salads.
Another day, another shopping center changing hands. The plaza with the Barnes & Noble and Panera sold for $3.9 million to a limited liability company with an unwieldy name: GECMC 2005-C2 North Salisbury Boulevard. It shares its principal office with Miami-based LNR Property LLC, which was purchased by Starwood Property Trust. That's a pretty big real estate financing company.
The Harrison Group has added another hotel to its portfolio in Ocean City: the Quality Inn & Suites Beachfront at 3301 Atlantic Avenue. It now operates 11 hotels in Ocean City and 13 overall.

Learned colleagues, I have recently came into some Matrix Opal from Winton in Queensland, It is the raw material and I have been told, to get the colours to come up in the stone. You either have to burn it in sugar or in a light oil, is that correct, I was previously told that you use sulphur acid and sugar. Any advise would be much appreciated.
It's a good thing you asked, Opal is generally considered heat sensitive. I wouldnt burn it and would talk to an opal specialist before treating it.
Thanks Pito, I will let you know how I go.
the fellow i purchased it off said, that he either places it in cooking oil or light machine oil and heats it in the oil for four hours or the other way he does it is to put it in a tin full of sugar and heat it until the sugar burns and this apparently gives him good results. He comes from up near Winton and said that he learnt this off some of the old timers. I was just curious as to whether anybody else had heard of this process, as the only one I had heard of up to now is the sulphuric Acid and sugar. I'm going to give the oil a go this week and see what results I get.
have just put my late uncles matrix opal cooking recipe in the gallery .
Added from the gallery by admin.
The matrix from Queensland is called fairy opal matrix much different than the matrix from Andamooka,the rainbow matrix from Andamooka is Similar to the fairy matrix,the fairy opal can be cooked in olive oil then heated or cooked in olive oil then heated to around 400c to turn the matrix black, cut the stones to a pre polish the same as the Andamooka matrix cook in olive oil a crock pot is great for this it has hi and low setting, after cooking the fairy opal in olive oil cook the fairy opal in a kiln or wrap it in foil and place it on hot coles to cook the olive oil and turn the stone black.


José González shares an orchestral reimagining of his back catalogue with an attentive Toronto audience.
The stage is resplendent with the instruments of an experimental orchestra. Lights dropped so you can barely see the musicians as each produces a small, rumpled plastic bag. Gentle rustling grows into a sound of raindrops, heralding the way for electronic beeping and reverberations of ever increasing volume. They're building a bed for González's gentle guitar and soft voice on Far Away.
The orchestra took a trip through a wide range of González's covers and original songs. The conjouring of sounds was breath taking: from the train-like momentum of the strings of Abram to flutes uttering a collective sound I can only describe as springtime during The Forest.
Hearing a 20 piece orchestra is a rich and restorative experience that fits González's song well. The most popular tunes of the night are two covers: Massive Attack's Teardrop and fellow Swedes – The Knife's Heartbeats credited by González as a beautiful song – made all the more beautiful by the layering of instruments as the song progressed.
Polite and reserved, the gentle Swedish lilt of González was seldom heard with just brief words to the audience. But the music was more than capable of speaking for itself.

Is it bad that I stopped caring at the shirt? Because I stopped caring at the shirt. XD They could have sent JUST THAT, and the crate would have been a win.
As a total geek, I am down for old school pencils. And they are printed with sayings from the show; such as 'I want to believe' and 'The Truth is Out There.' And MAJOR props for not assuming customers had a pencil sharpener. I do, since in the rare instances I do draw, I use sketch pencils and colored pencils. These are a tiny but appreciated detail since I'm a fan of the show.
The mug changes to have Joker graffiti in the sky and the Batman signal light. Very awesome.
As for the Q-Fig, I like the fact Jessica isn't just posed. She's kicking a brick wall down. Much more dynamic to look at.
Oh, and the box turns into a suitcase… I never manage to do anything with the changing boxes. I give them to my kid to do.


I've only used it for 2days, can't really say if it works or not, because it's only 2days!
But I love the scent of this cream, light citrus smell makes me feel happy when I apply on my face.
It's very light and smooth, (doesn't feel thick or heavy at all), definitely very easy to apply, also it absorbs very fast into my skin.
After cleansing, I apply it after my toner, before my moisturizer, twice a day (DAY/NIGHT).

SATAWU Gears Up for National Elective Congress
August 6, 2018 Zanele SabelaPress Releases2 comments
South African Transport and Allied Workers' Union (SATAWU) announced the date for its elective National Congress at a three-day Central Executive Committee (CEC) meeting held in Braamfontein, Johannesburg late last week.
Themed, "Reclaim, Renew and Unite for Working Class Power – Going Back to Basics," the gathering was addressed by Transport Minister Dr Blade Nzimande, chair of the ANC Sub-committee on Economic Transformation Enoch Godongwana and COSATU President Sdumo Dlamini. They all emphasised that unity is paramount and stressed the need for SATAWU to revitalise itself for the benefit of the workers as the transport, security and cleaning sectors are crucial to the economy, driving transformation of the transport sector and contributing to resolving challenges facing the provision of public transport like the burning of trains in the Western Cape and privatisation being brought through the door.
The CEC was the first to take place under the custodianship of the 14-member Task Team that was elected by the Central Executive Committee at a meeting on 17 November 2017 in which a progressive turnaround plan was adopted to rescue the union.
The Task Team was mandated by the CEC informed by terms of reference which, among others, included managing the affairs of the union, taking the union to its 4th elective National Congress by February 2018; working with COSATU to rebuild and unite the union through an organisational programme intended to regain the trust and confidence of members, to ensure the conducting of a forensic audit of the union's finances and investments in order to fully appreciate the veracity of the allegations of corruption and its causes.
The Task Team subsequently elected a five-member executive to handle the day-to-day running of the union. It became clear then that the Task Team would be unable to achieve the CEC deadline to convene the elective Congress as the level of the organisation's indebtedness made it impossible. The Task Team, in particular the executive, endured scathing criticism for not delivering Congress within the intended time period particularly by forces linked to the deported former general secretary who remain hell bent on destroying the union.
Presenting the organisational report, Executive Coordinator Jack Mazibuko laid bare the serious challenges faced by the Interim Task Team when they took over the running of the organisation in November 2017 and how much work had been done to stabilise it to date. The CEC unanimously commended the Task Team for the good work it had done and reaffirmed its mandate that they take the union to its 4th elective National Congress.
The CEC adopted the following important resolutions:
That the 4th elective National Congress will take place prior to the COSATU 13th National Congress on 15 September 2018.
The Task Team would remain in charge until National Congress is held.
CEC noted with concern that the union is not yet out of the red and therefore resolved to consider restructuring the organisation in line with membership requirements, current income / subscriptions levels and the changing economic landscape. This will include discussions at the national congress on exploring an increase in subscriptions, belt tightening measures to be applied and adopting clear investment policy to avoid the mistakes of the last 6 years that almost destroyed the union.
To revitalise SATAWU's gender structures in response to a call made by women delegates who painstakingly described how even themselves were not spared the ravages of patriarchy as they felt harassed and abused by their male counterparts, some of whom were attending the same meeting. They made it blatantly clear they expected the union to protect them from all forms of harassment and all forms gender-based violence. It was further resolved that SATAWU delegates must participate in COSATU's national and provincial gender structures.
The CEC expressed its gratitude to its former leaders Robert Mashego, Randall Howard and Tshamunwe Masindi for the constant support and guidance they have been providing since the previous CEC in terms of rebuilding and uniting the organisation.
There is a need for transparency when it comes to financial and investment administration and union officials and worker leaders who sit on various boards to represent the interests of workers. Therefore, the finance committee must be convened to ensure that all matters for the period under review are included the report to the national congress including who sits on which board and how much they get paid for each sitting.
All leaders should work towards uniting SATAWU and any action that seeks to cause division should be looked upon as a violation of this important principle.
The CEC expressed its disgust with regard to the dismal failure of the Hawks to bring to book the killers of cde Chris Nkosi since April 2015. Therefore, a march, on the Gauteng Hawks, will take place to hand over a memorandum demanding that the investigation into cde Nkosi' assassination be concluded and those responsible be arrested and successfully prosecuted.
A clarion call was made to all members to support the turnaround process and to actively work toward unity of SATAWU at all levels and ensuring a successful 4th National Congress in which new leaders will be elected and policies adopted intended to realise the rising of the giant and the consolidation of this strategic union for future genrations.

Zanele Sabela, SATAWU Media Officer
SATAWU is not what is supposed to help us as members but it is doing the opposit.We needed an organiser to visit our workplace in order to present our work related problems since the beggining of this year but everone seems to be avoiding us as if we are non paying members,it is disgusting and boring.Organisers must stand up and do their work.
Sithembele gadudu
I'm grateful to know that satawu atlast coming to it's roots again hope we all working together bringing unity in our loving organizations and all the members who left with some reason will come back to their home

The boys from Hanks *A Restaurant were guest-cheffing at Agrius and I knew I couldn't miss it. While I admit I haven't spent as much time as I'd like with the Hanks fellas, (and Laura!) I know them well enough to know that this was going to be an epic joining of talents and food and fun and ambiance and all of the best things you could ask for in a dinner party. We started out on the patio with a merging of appies – some from Hanks and some from Agrius – and drank Zanatta Brut and passionfruit beer. With a warm Hefeweizen glow, we piled into the dining room with our Wagyu beef shin pastrami sandwich 'amuse bouche' (I quote this because they were huge). There, we continued the feasting, partook in a unique and amazing cocktail like only Brooke Levie can make, listened to chill tunes from the DJ and made new table-friends amongst twirling pasta, steelhead and caviar and H.F. ducks. (see below for the explanation on that). The night was long and fun and we were all lulled into a comfortable state of satiation and familiarity by the time it ended with Peach Zelda and La Stella Moscato – a perfect ending to a truly fantastic night. (thank you table mates!) So, there you have it. I was going to write a big long story about this night and how it all unfolded. Though, I think this little story will suffice. I'll let the photos do the rest of the talking.

Google's plan to label HTTP sites more clearly and accurately as non-secure will take place in gradual steps, based on increasingly stringent criteria.


Through our targeted and proprietary 'Date Certain M&A Process', Gerbsman Partners has developed a focused and proven action plan for maximizing the value of Intellectual Property and associated Intellectual Capital in a transactional environment.
Applying these processes we have to date maximized the enterprise value for over 105 companies and their Intellectual Properties in a diverse range of industries, including technology, life science, medical devices, digital marketing/social commerce, cyber security, fuel cells, and solar energy.
Stakeholders/shareholders made a strategic decision that access to future capital would be limited either by the initial investment group(s) or by market conditions.
A decision was made or implied that existing management could not take the company forward and/or there were major issues with the business model.
The company(s) typically had 0-8 months of CASH available.
The Board of Directors and Shareholders wanted a "Clean" exit (no formal bankruptcy, ABC – Assignment for the Benefit of Creditors). Basically a settlement of outstanding issues that demonstrate the Board is meeting/has met their fiduciary responsibilities, no potential lawsuits against "Deep Pocket" equity investors and a reduction of the significant time the Board and Shareholders are spending at/on the company.
Board of Directors wanted to maximize the value of the Intellectual Property and other associated assets.
It is our experience that normal due diligence and monitoring activities are insufficient in order to maximize the value of an IP investment. Equity sponsors and controlling shareholders must often determine whether existing management has the capability and/or experience to develop and support its own marketing and distribution channels to complete a Strategic Intellectual Property Audit and manage a transaction to leverage the value of their IP.
With our extensive experience in maximizing stakeholder and shareholder value, a priority focus is on ensuring the legal ownership of the Intellectual Property.

Anaphylaxis 101
I am late in posting this, but you can bet I will be 'encouraging' my allergic child to enter. $2000 college scholarship? Yes, please. I've always loved Julie Bowen (WHEN will "Ed" be out on DVD?!?) and now I love her even more.
"Modern Family" Star Julie Bowen Joins Mylan Specialty L.P. to Launch Health Awareness Initiative to Address Growing Rate of Life-Threatening Allergic Reactions
Get Schooled In Anaphylaxis™ Campaign Kicks Off with College Scholarship Challenge
Basking Ridge, NJ, September 26, 2012 – Emmy-award winning actress Julie Bowen, known for her comedic role in "Modern Family," is for the first time publicly sharing her family's experience with life-threatening allergies to help drive a national conversation on this serious health issue. Bowen is partnering with Mylan Specialty L.P. to launch Get Schooled in Anaphylaxis™, a multi-faceted public health initiative that aims to increase awareness of and preparedness for life-threatening allergic reactions (anaphylaxis).
To view the multimedia content, please click: http://www.multivu.com/players/English/57462-get-schooled-in-anaphylaxis/
The campaign's first priority will be to focus on educating the school community. Sending children to school can be a great source of anxiety for parents of children who may be at risk for life-threatening allergic reactions because the children are out of their parents' direct care and supervision. In addition, recent tragedies involving school-aged children have highlighted the need to further educate teachers, school staff and students about anaphylaxis.
"Like most kids, my son spends 180 days in school each year and I need to know that the people he is with every day know the signs and symptoms of anaphylaxis and what to do if it occurs," said Bowen, who had no idea her son had life-threatening allergies to peanuts, walnuts and bee stings until he experienced an anaphylactic reaction when he was a toddler. "Fortunately, my son received immediate medical care and recovered quickly, but it was a wake-up call that anaphylaxis can occur anywhere and at any time, even when you may not think your child is at risk."
Anaphylaxis is a life-threatening allergic reaction that has many possible triggers, may occur quickly and without warning, and must be treated immediately with epinephrine. Avoidance of allergic triggers is the critical first step in managing life-threatening allergies. However, allergens are not always obvious and accidental exposure may still happen.
To get the school community involved, Bowen is calling on students nationwide to join the Get Schooled in Anaphylaxis Challenge™. Students in grades 1-12 are encouraged to visit www.Anaphylaxis101.com and submit an essay describing an idea to help their school become more aware of and better prepared to support students who may be at risk for life-threatening allergic reactions. Fifteen students from across the country will be selected by a judging panel to win a $2,000 college scholarship.
"My son is only five, but he has already started to take responsibility for his life-threatening allergies and become his own advocate," said Bowen, who will star in a public service announcement (PSA) about anaphylaxis. "Through the Get Schooled in Anaphylaxis Challenge, students across the country will have the opportunity to educate their peers and help everyone be more aware of life-threatening allergies."
Food allergy is the most common cause of anaphylaxis, though it can also be triggered by insect stings, medications, latex or other allergens. It is estimated that one in 13 children in the U.S. suffer from a food allergy and a study by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) showed that the incidence increased 18 percent from 1997 to 2007. Up to 1,500 deaths each year are caused by life-threatening allergic reactions.
"Anaphylaxis is a significant public health issue in our nation's schools, where accidental exposures to allergens may occur," said Hemant Sharma, M.D., associate chief of the Division of Allergy and Immunology at Children's National Medical Center in Washington, D.C. "We need to make sure everyone responsible for the safety of children in schools knows how to identify and avoid allergic triggers, recognize anaphylaxis signs and symptoms, and understand how to quickly get appropriate treatment and immediate medical care when a life-threatening allergic reaction occurs."
Get Schooled In Anaphylaxis Challenge™ Entry Information
The Get Schooled in Anaphylaxis Challenge™ encourages school-aged children in grades 1-12 to write a brief essay and submit up to two visual images. Submissions should explain an idea to:
· Improve awareness of life-threatening allergies in schools;
· Help students who may be at risk for life-threatening allergic reactions feel more accepted in their school; or
· Provide a unique solution to a challenge faced by students who may be at risk for anaphylaxis.
Each entry will be evaluated by a judging panel including family caregivers, doctors, school nurses, advocacy groups and others in the allergy community. Winners will be selected based on creativity and originality of the idea, the clarity of the proposed solution and the potential for implementation of the idea.
Essays can be submitted from September 26, 2012 to November 9, 2012.

Seeing the Earth from space can change your entire perspective on life, and in the case of Noah Hawley's feature-length directorial debut, Lucy in the Sky, it'll make you totally lose your mind. With that said, a new trailer for the film is here to help unseat your comfortable outlook on the world.
Natalie Portman (Annihilation) plays Lucy Cola, an astronaut who begins to lose her grip on reality after returning from an off-world mission that makes her normal, everyday existence seem quaint and uninteresting by comparison. In her desperate bid to breach the atmosphere once again, Lucy begins an affair with another astronaut, Mark Goodwin (Good Omens' Jon Hamm), and leaves both her husband (Legion's Dan Stevens) and her therapist (3 Below's Nick Offerman) quite concerned.
Loosely inspired by the life of real-world astronaut Lisa Nowak, the film gets its title from the famous Beatles song "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds." (Originally, it was going to be called Pale Blue Dot.) The project's screenplay was penned by Hawley (creator of Legion and Fargo on FX), Brian C. Brown (a producer on Legion), and Elliott DiGuiseppi (a post-production coordinator for Faking It).
Watch the new trailer now:
Video of LUCY IN THE SKY | Official Trailer | FOX Searchlight
Rounding out the movie's ensemble cast are Zazie Beetz (Deadpool 2), Ellen Burstyn (House of Cards), Colman Domingo (If Beale Street Could Talk), and Tig Notaro (Star Trek: Discovery).
"It's a magic realism astronaut movie," Hawley told Collider back in June. "What was exciting about it was that it allowed me to continue thinking about filmmaking subjectively... It's filmmaking that's trying to create something experiential, that's not always necessarily information-driven. It's more about what it's like to be Lucy Cola, and it explores a psychological decline, in a way that the audience can understand and stay with her, the whole time, without ever judging her. She makes mistakes, but mistakes are human."
The moon will hit your eye like a big pizza pie in the new poster below:
Lucy in the Sky blasts off for its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival Sept. 11. The movie opens in theaters everywhere Oct. 4.

The following article is a guide to applying for an Uzbekistan tourist visa. To be very honest, getting a visa for Uzbekistan is pretty easy these days, as little paperwork is required.
However, there are so many rules depending on your specific case and nationality and things change very fast.
Who can get a free Uzbek visa?
Finally, there are many nationalities that can get a 30-day FREE visa on arrival.
Other ex-Soviet countries including Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Russia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan can get up to 3 months.
Find here the official website where you can apply from.
e-visa problems – Since the system is quite new, some people haven't succeeded when trying to apply, as the system still has a few bugs. You should give it a try and, if you don't succeed, send them an email or, worst case scenario, you will have to apply through the embassy.
If you are not one of the lucky countries or you just couldn't apply for an e-visa, you will need to go through the traditional way.
Don't worry, it is very easy.
I applied for at the Uzbek Embassy in Tajikistan and had to wait for 5 working days but they claim that you can wait for up to 8. By the way, you should be able to keep your passport.
I paid 75USD for a single entry 30-day visa but fees may vary depending on your nationality and the embassy.
Officially, the hotel reservation is not mandatory but, at the embassy, they did ask me for it. I didn't have one but, after a long discussion, they accepted my application. If you want to avoid any trouble, I recommend bringing your hotel booking. Click here to book a room in Top Chan Hostel.
If you are allowed to apply for an e-visa you don't need an LOI, even if you apply through the embassy.
However, for the rest of the nationalities, before going to the embassy, you must be in possession of a valid LOI from an agency and tour operator.
For this, I recommend Tashkent Top chan Hostel. Why? Basically, because they are the cheapest and very effective. They charge 42USD for the service and it takes 8 working days, or 4 working days if you pay an additional fee.
Just email them at [email protected] and follow their instructions. They are very responsive.
For travelers who have an LOI, they can get their visa on the same day they applied.
Pro-tip! For those nationalities who don't need an LOI, you should know that, if you do get one, you can collect your visa on the same day you apply for it at the embassy. Otherwise, the visa processing takes between 5 and 8 working days. If you are short on time, do get a LOI in advance.

Ultimate Bollinger Tasting
CH'NG Poh Tiong 24 April, 2020 News Leave a comment 923 Views
Founded in 1829, the oldest vintage at Bollinger is 1830. Following the tasting there were 11 bottles left.
The first vintage of R.D. is 1952, an exceptional wine.
On 21 June 2016, in the Grand Cru village of Aÿ, Champagne Bollinger delivered the ultimate tasting. Champagne Bollinger's CEO Jerome Philippon (now CEO of the entire group) and their cellarmaster Gilles Descotes led the tasting. Here are my seven most memorable wines from that historic tasting.
The first vintage of VVF or Vieilles Vignes Francaise is 1969. The two parcels of vines – less than 0.5 ha – are ungrafted and not vulnerable to phylloxera. A pure pinot noir, when a vintage is declared, there are only 3,000 to 5,000 bottles of VVF produced.
Champagne Bollinger Vieilles Vignes Francaises 1969
This is the first vintage of Vieilles Vignes Francaise, a pure pinot noir. What is even more remarkable is that the vines for producing VVF are ungrafted. The two parcels are walking distance from Champagne Bollinger. The decision to produce Vieilles Vignes Francaises was inspired by Cyril Ray, the late British journalist who made the suggestion to Lily Bollinger. It is one of the rarest and priciest wines in the world. Light gold. Truffle, mushroom and hint of citrus peel. Elegant and silky. The dosage is 4 g/l and the bottle disgorged in 2012. Only two bars of pressure in the wine. (A bottle of champagne usually has 6 bars of pressure. For every 10 years in the standard 750 ml bottle, about one bar of pressure is lost).
Champagne Bollinger R.D. 1952
This is the first vintage of R.D. The initials stand for Recemment Degorge or Recently Disgorged. Bright gold in complexion, the nose is very fragrant. Who could have imagined, 64 years later, that there are still tropical notes of very ripe pineapples. Raisins and star anise too. This full-bodied wine was the most unusual Bollinger in the lineup. The dosage of R.D. 1952 also happened to be the highest, 13 g/l. This was actually not so much more than normal because the dosage of vintage Champagnes Bollinger produced then was about 10 g/l . Still, the added succulence and decidedly creamy texture were immediately discernible as soon as the wine was tasted. Jerome Philippon informed that this first R.D. was produced for the American market and released in 1967 (disgorged on 6 June of that year). He further revealed that the next 1953 R.D., the dosage was considerably lower because it was targeted at the British market instead.
Champagne Bollinger Ccellarmaster Gilles Descotes led the tasting on 21 June 2016.
Bollinger 1945 was the top wine in the historic tasting.
Champagne Bollinger 1945
The German garrison in Paris finally surrendered on 25 August 1945. This exceptional wine was the perfect present to celebrate the end of World War II (1939 -1945) and liberation. Earlier that year, the winter was cold and the vintage turned out also to be the driest since 1833. Only 475 mm of rain fell in 1945 (when our group of journalists visited, Jerome Philippon informed that as of June 2016, there were already 600 mm for the first six months of the year). Gold. Very ripe but also very balanced. Not to mention very complex, including raisins, whiff of sandalwood, dried citrus peel and spice delivered in a texture that is ultra creamy. The dosage is 11 g/l and the bottle disgorged in 1969 (when Lily Bollinger was rebuilding her cellar). Deserves an extra star to make it a total of 6 stars.
Gold with hints of bronze. Whiff of truffle. Lighter and fresher than 1945. But not as intense or energetic, nor as long on the finish. Very elegant. The dosage is also 11 g/l. Disgorged in 1969.
Gold. Mushrooms – rather than truffles – on the nose. The fruit is still resonant and has a citrus peel finish. Light, fresh and wonderful harmony. Elegant.
World War I (1914 – 1918) had already started in July when grapes were being harvested. It was left to children, women and men who were not fighting the war to bring in the harvest. The nose is very unusual for this 102 year old. Incredibly, there is still a floral note. And spice and oils as those used in a spa treatment. Light but very fine. And still with a touch of fizz. Truly amazing.
This was the final wine tasted on Tuesday 21 June 2016. Vintage 1830 was just one year after Bollinger was founded on 6 February 1829 by Hennequin de Villermont, Paul Renaudin, and Jacques Bollinger (Villermont, the aristocrat, did not want his name mentioned on the brand). At that time, the house was known as Champagne Renaudin Bollinger. In 1854, Renaudin died without an heir but the labels only became solely Bollinger in the 1960s. There is still life and vitality in the 185-year old. Vintage 1830 was the coldest winter in France on record. Although the wine is still fresh, there are no more bubbles. Gold/bronze in colour. The fragile fruit includes mushroom, Chinese herbs, a light smokiness and a delicate minerality. Following the tasting, there are only 11 bottles of 1830 left in the Bollinger cellar.

Roar by Cora Carmack
From New York Times bestselling author Cora Carmack comes her debut young adult fantasy, ROAR! Now available, ROAR takes readers on an adventure filled with charismatic characters in an enthralling world sure to keep them turning the pages. Grab your copy today!
ROAR (Stormheart #1):
New York Times bestselling author Cora Carmack's young adult debut: Roar.
In a land ruled and shaped by violent magical storms, power lies with those who control them.
Aurora Pavan comes from one of the oldest Stormling families in existence. Long ago, the ungifted pledged fealty and service to her family in exchange for safe haven, and a kingdom was carved out from the wildlands and sustained by magic capable of repelling the world's deadliest foes. As the sole heir of Pavan, Aurora's been groomed to be the perfect queen. She's intelligent and brave and honorable. But she's yet to show any trace of the magic she'll need to protect her people.
To keep her secret and save her crown, Aurora's mother arranges for her to marry a dark and brooding Stormling prince from another kingdom. At first, the prince seems like the perfect solution to all her problems. He'll guarantee her spot as the next queen and be the champion her people need to remain safe. But the more secrets Aurora uncovers about him, the more a future with him frightens her. When she dons a disguise and sneaks out of the palace one night to spy on him, she stumbles upon a black market dealing in the very thing she lacks—storm magic. And the people selling it? They're not Stormlings. They're storm hunters.
Legend says that her ancestors first gained their magic by facing a storm and stealing part of its essence. And when a handsome young storm hunter reveals he was born without magic, but possesses it now, Aurora realizes there's a third option for her future besides ruin or marriage. She might not have magic now, but she can steal it if she's brave enough.
Challenge a tempest. Survive it. And you become its master.

"This life is not glamorous," Duke told her. "We travel constantly. We sleep on the ground most nights. When we're not in danger from storms, we're in danger in cities where we are considered criminals. This life is not for the faint of heart."
"There are things I do not know, things I will have to learn. But I am capable. I am familiar with sacrifice. I know what it is to make hard choices."
"Tell me you're not considering this," Locke said to Duke.
The old man was silent for a long moment, both Locke and Roar looking to him for support. Duke rubbed at his mustache, a habit of his when he was thinking deeply. "Let's think about this, Locke. She's smart. And determined."
"She's a child."
Roar's shoulders hunched in Locke's peripheral vision, and he swallowed back the guilt. He could apologize later. For now, it was imperative that he won this argument.
"You were a child when I brought you into the fold," Duke said. "She's a young woman with a good head on her shoulders. And if this is what she wants, I'm inclined to at least hear her out."
Just like that, Roar's shoulders straightened, and Locke turned to watch a devastating smile bloom across her mouth. His weakness when it came to her only made him more cross.
"What skills do you have?" he snapped at Roar.
"Skills?"
"Yes, skills. What can you do? Or do you just plan to tag along for the ride?"
A flush spread over her cheeks, and her voice was tentative when she answered, "I'm good on a horse. Very good."
Where in the world would she have learned to ride? He quickly hardened his expression. "Horses are fine for travel, but they don't do well in storms. They, unlike you, have good survival instincts."
As soon as the words were out of his mouth, Locke could have sworn he felt an updraft—the first sign that bad weather could occur—and he knew that this time he had pushed too far.
Roar marched toward him, spearing a finger into his chest and said, "I can read and write. I can speak Taraanese, Finlaghi, and Odilarian. I can read maps. I know enough about grassland vegetation and wildlife to survive without a market to buy food and drink. I'm good with knives and a bow. I learn quickly, and I'm not afraid of hard work. And I've spent my entire life reading as much about storms as I could get my hands on." For a moment, her voice cracked under the weight of her anger, but she took a huffing breath and continued: "I'm good with numbers. It's been a while, but I think I can probably still draw the constellations from memory, which should make me decent at navigation. I can—"
"Enough." Locke's voice came out in a deep rasp. He captured her long, delicate finger in his fist before she could continue poking him. He felt short of breath at the sight of her—livid and lovely. "Enough."
The old Locke might have kept arguing, and Roar would have met him toe-to-toe. But if becoming a storm hunter had taught him anything, it was that fighting head-on wasn't always the way to win. Sometimes strategy was required. He met Duke's eyes over her shoulder, and if he had thought Roar looked smug before, she had nothing on his mentor. The man raised his eyebrows in a challenge and asked, "You?"
He hated the idea of bringing someone into this dangerous life, but if it was going to happen regardless, he sure as hell wouldn't hand her safety over to anyone else, not even Ransom. And at the very least, it would give him the opportunity to change her mind. He gritted his teeth and nodded his acceptance.
Roar was such a fascinating and captivating book. I was sucked in from the first page of this book, and the ending left me eager for more.
The plot of Roar was unique and extremely interesting. I loved the concept of controlling storms and stealing the heart of the storm. Every time something new was revealed, I found myself becoming more and more fascinated with this story. The author created such an intricate and immersive world that I got lost in. I cannot wait to learn more about this new world in the future books. I WANT TO LIVE IN THIS MAGICAL AND AMAZING WORLD!
I also liked how much action this book had. The action involving the storms had me on the edge of my seat! As much as I liked the plot of the book, I did feel like some things got a little repetitive, but the book definitely held my interest as a whole.
The main character, Aurora, was such a delightful character. I was worried that she was just going to be an average special snowflake type character. I was extremely excited when she was so much more than that. She was such a kind, determined, tough, and smart character. I really connected with her and I was rooting for her the entire time. I ended the book feeling like I gained a new best friend.
There were also a lot of diverse and interesting side characters. Each character was unique and I ended up loving all of them. I loved the squad vibes that the characters gave in this book! I bonded with all the characters and they all have stolen my heart. I hope to learn more about the side characters in the next books because I think we have more to discover about them.
I especially fell in love with two of the main male characters in this book. They were both extremely swoon-worthy and wonderful characters. I don't want to spoil anything, but one of those males was a very morally gray character, which I was LIVING FOR. He was extremely cunning, and he gave me so many Slytherin vibes. He wasn't as prominent as I would have liked in this book, so I hope he plays a more important role in the upcoming books! I SERIOUSLY LOVE HIM SO MUCH.
I don't want to spoil anything about the romance in this book, but I really enjoyed the romance. At first, the romance felt a bit like insta-love because the characters seemed a bit obsessive, but then the romance actually slowed down. The romance then starting developing at a more believable pace and it became a lot more alluring. The romance was full of swoon-worthy moments and steamy kisses that made my heart soar. I am hoping to see it develop more in the next book. I WANT MORE KISSES!!!!!
But, also, I ship Roar with my slytherin baby more so I am HIGHKEY hoping that happens in book two. *fingers crossed*
Overall, this was a fast paced and enchanting novel! I would recommend this to people who are looking for an intriguing fantasy filled with romance!

One of Livermore's (and California's) oldest wineries, Murrieta's Well continues to be a premiere purveyor of fine wines and an outstanding venue for wine tasting. A recent sunny, Friday afternoon seemed to be perfect for another visit to their tasting room. With such a gem just around the corner, why not?
Arriving at Murrieta's Well is a study in contrasts. First, you enter through a cattle fence and drive along an industrial yard. Then you turn into an expansive parking lot and catch your first glimpse of a manor house presiding over a manicured lawn. As we walked toward the winery, we were greeted at a sidewalk kiosk, handed a glass of white wine, and lead to a table inside the tasting room. What a unique arrival experience!
We met wine guide Rebecca, who got us comfortable in the upstairs tasting area and explained that we were sipping on their 2015 Whip. The Whip is a blend of 30% Sauvignon Blanc, 30% Semillon, 30% Chardonnay, 7% Viognier, and 3% Muscat Canelli. That is a huge list of varietals, but it was worth it! Fun tropical fruits with a clean, citrus finish. Perfect for the warm summer day we were already enjoying.
We were then introduced to wine guide Rob, who poured their 2016 Dry Rosé, a blend of 55% Grenache and 45% Counoise (a red grape grown primarily in the Rhône valley region of France). We enjoyed the strawberry aromas, which were joined by flavors of apricot and honey, with a lovely, dry finish. Next up were some red wines, starting with their 2014 The Spur. This blend of 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 22% Petite Sirah, 14% Petit Verdot, 10% Merlot, and 9% Cabernet Franc had great layers of fruit with vanilla and spice notes lurking around the corner.
We then tasted their 2015 Tempranillo, which has 5% Petite Sirah, 2% Cabernet Sauvignon, 2% Malbec, and 1% Touriga blended in. Smooth and refined, with restrained fruit and dark berry notes, this was a big hit, breaking onto the "take home" list. We couldn't wait to sip this with some steak and Bearnaise sauce. The 2015 Malbec was a symphony of huckleberry, elderberry and cherry notes. We called it a "s'more in a glass" as we savored every drop.
Our next taste was their 2015 Zarzuela, a blend of 40% Tempranillo, 40% Touriga, and 20% Souzao. The name means "blend of seafood" in Barcelona and "blend of musical performance" in Madrid. At Murrieta's Well it means "punchy burst of berries, with umami and tannins toward the end." Almost enough to make us take up smoking Cuban cigars.
By happy happenstance, there was an open bottle of 2014 Cabernet Franc. This club-only wine was nearly sold out, but a bottle had been opened earlier for a special event. Waste not, want not! We did our part to make sure that none of this wonderful wine was overlooked. Wow! A smooth progression of nuanced layers. Almost a musical chord progression on the tongue. It was obvious why this wine was sold out!
With our expectations exceeded and out taste buds sated, we thanked Rob, purchased a bunch of wine, and made our way back to the parking lot. Another incredible tasting at Murrieta's Well!

Thank you so much for visiting us! Love your review and all your beautiful pics. Cheers!
It was a pleasure! The great venue, amazing wines, and outstanding staff made the visit an outstanding experience.

Karim Benzema's house robbed during El Clasico
Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema was robbed during the El-Clasico against Barcelona in the second leg of the Copa Del Rey clash at the Santiago Bernabeu.
The defeat Barcelona was only the beginning of Benzema's problems after El Chiringuito reported that burglars took advantage of his absence and broke into his home during the match.
It's unknown how much was taken in the robbery but it's true that the experience of having been targetted meant the French forward did not have a pleasant night.
Benzema's the latest footballer to be targetted while playing. In recent weeks, PSG's Dani Alves suffering a break-in on February 20 during a Ligue 1 match against Montpellier and Barça's Kevin Prince Boateng have also been the subject of burglaries at their properties.
The Burgulars got into Alves' place in Neuilly-sur-Seine through a window and reportedly stole watches and caused around €10,000 worth of damage.
An investigation is going on in a bid to bring the perpetrators to book, at the moment no further details are currently available. Last month Kevin-Prince Boateng's house in the Sarria of Barcelona was targeted this month
Over in England, Sadio Mane also suffered a burglary during Liverpool's Champions League match against Bayern Munich this month.

Wild and tropical trekking adventure holiday walking in the mountains of Reunion Island. Eight hundred kilometres east of Madagascar, the French overseas department of Reunion Island is a walking destination - par excellence! The far-flung volcanic Reunion Island, with its intriguing mix of African and French cultures, rises to over 3000m and its rugged interior boasts a network of walking trails which would not look out of place in Nepal. Three vast eroded cirques, Salazie, Mafate and Cilaos, dominate the centre of Reunion Island and provide the backdrop for this surprising walking adventure holiday.
Walking through forest and farmland, our trekking takes us across high passes, descending to spend time in and explore friendly villages. Luxuriant vegetation, exotic bird species, towering waterfalls and hot springs to are all part of the scene on the endearing paradise of Reunion Island. Trekking to the summit of Piton des Neiges (3070m) at dawn, we can look across to our final objective, the active volcano of Piton de la Fournaise (2632m). Having ticked off many of the best walking trails on Reunion Island, we will be ready for a day of R&R at the pleasant coastal resort of St Gilles, a great way to end our walking holiday adventure to Reunion Island.
Thank you for organising a really fantastic holiday! The guide was excellent. The hotels, gites and refuges were all good, especially Hellbourg. The trek itinerary and the places visited was/were very good. I cannot recommend the helicopter flight too highly. It was really amazing!
We an excellent guide and did a great job to alter the Piton des Neiges summit day after the morning of heavy rain and thick mist, causing very low visibility, required an alternative arrangement. Claire was enthusiastic in helping me spot/photograph the local bird life. A good leader helps to make a great holiday and this was no exception.The Belouve forest and the hike on Piton de la Fournaise were the highlights for me but that's not to say there was anything wrong with the other days walks.
