...planet, though even if it isn't, there's plenty of reason to be excited. For one thing, astronomers got an image of it. The reason it's so tough to image a planet is its proximity to the blinding light of its star, which in this case is about a million times brighter. It would be like trying to see a candle burning next to the beam of a million-candlepower searchlight. Further, the blurring caused by Earth's atmosphere makes it tough to separate closely paired objects - such as a star and planet - even when they...
...Supplemental can be waived. Although the HUSHP Supplemental is optional, it still deserves to be part of the termbill because, unlike the UC fee, it is necessary. Before the College knows whether a student has adequate health insurance, it is reasonable to first charge students with the fee in case of a life-threatening emergency. Since the UC fee does not carry such importance, the SRO has an even greater obligation to either ensure that students are aware that the fee is optional or remove it from the termbill altogether...
...President gave Tuesday night's 34-minute address in front of the coiffed, baby-faced cadets of West Point, America's proud Army leaders in training. In a steady, grim cadence, Obama made the case for putting yet another 30,000 Americans in harm's way. "If I did not think that the security of the United States and the safety of the American people were at stake in Afghanistan, I would gladly order every one of our troops home tomorrow," he said. "This is no idle danger, no hypothetical threat...
Vinifying in oak can produce woody, toasty or vanillin aromas that are not desirable in every case. Making wine in stainless steel, meanwhile, can deprive it of the bouquet and tannin-ameliorating effects of a measured oxygen exposure, sometimes obliging winemakers to use artificial micro-oxygenation. The Nomblot Egg's porous clay-cement walls offer a third way, allowing for natural oxygenation without oakiness. But the tank's most surprising benefit may well lie in its shape. Creator Nomblot explains: "All fluids rise when temperature increases, and do so in a vortex, but in a barrel or other container...
...proof, of course, is in the tasting - while Roman procurator turned philosopher Pliny the Elder's maxim "in vino veritas" is atrociously overquoted, perhaps an exception can be made in this case. After several trial vintages at Lauzières, and by Schlaepfer's colleagues Christian Zündel in Switzerland and Dominique Hauvette in Baux, the verdict is in: greater minerality, fruitiness and elegance. Schlaepfer's white cuvée Astérie exhibits rich honey and exotic-fruit flavors; his Petit Verdot-dominant cuvée Sine Nomine is redolent with the complex bouquet of blackberry and cedar...
