Continued from the article Tasting Leelanau . We started our final day of Tasting Leelanau with a visit to a relatively new producer, Circa Estate Winery, owned and operated by Margaret and David Bell.

Curtis Withers and the Wizards won the battle of the foreheads. This time. View full size photo » So there it is, right up top, my mea culpa. I didn't expect this outcome at all. I thought that either Dakota would get run out of the gym or that they'd be able to slow things down a little bit. Neither of which seems to have happened. I missed the game and without a Futurecast archive I can't watch...
It must be noted that, besides the three essential Big Star classics, a fourth album exists that fits into the Big Star story like a puzzle-piece. That album is Chris Bell’s I Am the Cosmos , which was first released by Rykodisc in 1992. It was culled from a number of studio sessions Bell did in the years before his untimely death in 1978. Bell left Big Star after #1 Record failed to chart, and...

As we remember the men and women that served our country for so many years, we pay special thanks to the men (and sometimes women....Adam Eaton, David Bell, Ricky Jordan) that served our televisions and radios from 1971-2003. In paying thanks we will do a countdown of the five greatest moments of all time at the Vet: #5-June 11th, 1985 Phillies defeated the New York Mets 26-7. Most runs scored by the...
Your report (9 November) of the PCC's investigation into the News of the World's phone-tapping reveals the yawning gap between public expectations of what an independent self-regulator can achieve and the role the PCC is actually set up to perform, which is simply the resolution of complaints. The commission has neither the powers nor the resources to conduct the type of investigation needed. So those...
Third base position now becomes a top priority On Sunday night the Phillies announced that they would not be bringing back third baseman Pedro Feliz , declining his club option for 2010 worth $5.5 million.

But computer companies aren't the only manufacturers moving into the retail space, says Wharton marketing professor David Bell. Whether it's handbags from Coach, shoes from Nike or suits from Ralph Lauren, consumers increasingly have...
Last week a learned professor told us that failure to adopt an appropriate attitude towards environmental issues will soon be so socially unacceptable you'll have to glance over your shoulder before telling a Green joke. "So, an environmentalist, an activist and David Suzuki walk into a bar..." The Gazette reports: "I see this country at the cusp of great social change," says [David]...
I’m not trying to start a scare unnecessarily but over the years I have seen different times where research has found some sort of link between ME/CFS and cancer. This time it is the latest news regarding the virus that has been found in us – XMRV.
