OPINION: The Shirtist

Once upon a time there was a peaceful town that was a true American melting pot; a cross section of races, religions, heritages and interests. Everybody, for the most part, got along with each other and was friendly to both neighbors and strangers. It was a good place to live. The town had one unusual quirk. Most of the people wore green shirts, but one in five people wore a yellow shirt. Whether by tradition or habit, people wore the same color shirt worn by their fathers. Nobody remembers why because nobody really noticed.

ADVERTISING: Advertorial — Wine terms explained

Wine like any other specialized industry has its own set of jargon.

Glassware care

We carry many styles of stemware from varied manufacturers for all kinds of wine. Like so many things in wine, the choice of what you drink from is as personal as your choice in wine; everyone seems to like something different. Whether it be the look of the glass, the technical qualities of how it delivers the wine to your palate, or the aromas to your nose, we all have our preferences. And like all these choices in wine accoutrements and wine in general, there is no right or wrong opinion.

ADVERTISING: Advertorial — GEORGE BALLING: The most important wine flaw to know

There are many things that can go wrong in the winemaking process. Many are controllable and some are not. Wine is an organic product, and while from time to time we all might encounter a wine that is poorly made, more often than not, one of the things that goes wrong is not due to a poorly skilled winemaker or production staff, it is a simple flaw. Everything from bottle variation to volatile acidity or VA, to an unintended secondary bottle fermentation which can just get loose in the wine, resulting in a bottle that just doesn’t taste (or more likely smell) right.

Tech shopping for your child? Consider the power of the pen in learning

(BPT) - Writing is fundamental to learning, and humans have been doing it since the first cave dwellers used the end of a stick to smudge drawings on the walls of their homes. Parents thinking of buying a tablet for their child may think touchscreen technology is heralding the end of writing for their kids. Not so, education and technology pros say. A new generation of “pens,” designed for use with tablets and touchscreens, is bringing one of the oldest human communication tools into classrooms that have already entered the digital age.
