Pomerol's Best
Flickinger Wines is thrilled to offer a fantastic selection of top Pomerol estates, most in original OWC. While Pomerol may be the smallest of the (major) Bordeaux communes, it is home to some of the world's most sought after wines such as Petrus, Le Pin and Lafleur. Pomerol's renown is rather recent historically speaking, but its history is ancient and the blue clay that is found in the terroir here is truly unique and able to produce some of the world's most mesmerizing wines. Our selection today includes wines from many of Pomerol's greatest châteaux including Conseillante, L'Evangile, Trotanoy and Vieux Château Certan. Special mention should be made of the 11 vintages of Château Lafleur, including the spectacular 2009 and 2015. This estate is widely considered to be the only true peer of Petrus in most vintages, so don't miss this incredible opportunity to add some to your collection. Cheers!

Ch. Clinet 2008 Pomerol ETA 90-120 Days (12x750ML) $1,234.99 1
WA 94+ (5/2011): Another resounding success for the vintage, the opaque purple-colored 2008 Clinet (14.4% alcohol) is composed of 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Yields of 38 hectoliters per hectare, while higher than in 2010, were still modest. Another powerful, big, large-scaled effort, the 2008 exhibits an inky/purple color as well as sweet creme de cassis, blackberry, plum, Asian spice, licorice and incense notes. Layered and full-bodied with stunning purity and a 40+ second finish, this beauty needs 3-5 years of bottle age and should keep for 25-30 years.
2012 Pomerol ETA 90-120 Days (6x750ML) $521.99 5
WA 95 (4/2015): With a dense purple color and gorgeous levels of fruit, especially black raspberry and blackcurrant, this full-bodied, opulent style of wine is another great success for Clinet, a château that has been on top of its game for the last decade. This is stunning stuff, and whatever new oak has been used – and there is plenty – it is totally disguised by the luxurious and extravagant fruit level. This full-bodied, opulent Pomerol should drink well for 15 or more years.
VM 95 (1/2016): A wine of total precision, the 2012 Clinet possesses striking aromatic nuance and delineation. Crushed flowers, sweet raspberries, herbs and mint flesh out effortlessly, with silky, polished tannins that add to the wine's feel of graciousness. The spherical, beautifully textured finish suggests the 2012 will offer a wide drinking window of pure pleasure over the next 15-20 years. This is impressive. The 2012 is 90% Merlot, 9% Cabernet Sauvignon and 1% Cabernet Franc.
WS 93 (3/2015): Gorgeous plum cake, melted licorice and steeped currant and blackberry fruit is inlaid with notes of fruitcake and singed vanilla bean. Long and plush through the finish, with a buried charcoal spine that adds needed cut. Best from 2017 through 2027. 3,800 cases made.
JS 93 (2/2015): Fabulous nose of orange peel, blueberries and blackberries. Full body, firm tannins and a cocoa, cedar and berry finish. Little austere now but so fine. Truly Outstanding for the vintage. Better after 2016.
2014 Pomerol (375 ML) ex-Negociant $36 31
VM 94+ (2/2017): The 2014 Clinet is powerful, deep and enveloping. Black cherry, smoke, graphite, chocolate and French oak give the wine its intensity and gravitas. Hints of lavender and violet develop in the glass, adding lovely aromatic nuance, but the 2014 remains a big, imposing wine in need of cellaring. This is impressive juice. Tasted two times. Antonio Galloni.
JS 94 (2/2017): A tight and subtle wine with very pretty ripe-fruit character and chocolate. Medium to full body. Needs time to open. Better in 2020.
JD 93 (11/2017): For whatever reason, Chateau Clinet was not interested in having their 2015 tasted for this report and I was unable to taste it during my trip through the region. I'll do my best to review it from bottle once it's available in the United States. Nevertheless, I purchased a bottle of the 2014 Château Clinet locally and it showed beautifully, revealing a deep purple color, loads of plum, crème de cassis, spice-box, dried flowers, and graphite aromas and flavors, full-bodied richness, and a terrific minerality the developed with time in the glass. This is an elegant, balanced, beautifully pure 2014 that's very much in the style of the vintage. It will keep for 20+ years.
WS 92 (3/2017): Dark in profile, featuring a steeped core of fig and blackberry fruit that melds with roasted apple wood and ganache notes through the finish. Shows plenty of muscle, but the refined structure leads to a very long finish, boding well for the cellar. Best from 2020 through 2035. 4,750 cases made.
WA 91 (3/2017): The 2014 Clinet was a wine that perplexed when I tasted it from barrel and as a consequence, it was one that I went back and retasted three or four times during that primeur campaign. Now in bottle, the bouquet has improved and developed more fruit concentration, armed with red plum, wild strawberry and blueberry scents. The palate is medium-bodied and quite refined, certainly not as opulent as other vintages from the estate, perhaps just missing a persistence on the angular finish. It is not a bad Clinet by a long stretch, it just feels a little constricted, especially compared to say the 2010 or 2015. I tasted this on three occasions, drawing the same conclusion each time.
2016 Pomerol Futures- ETA TBD (3.0 L) ex-Chateau $419 2
Ch. Conseillante 2005 Pomerol ETA 90-120 Days (12x750ML) $3,154.99 5
JS 98 (11/2015): This really does have a wonderful texture that is reminiscent of great pinot noir while remaining obviously cabernet franc and merlot. It shows a seductive nose of cream, berries, chocolate and flowers. It's full-bodied, very intense and seamless in length. Pure class. Drink now and enjoy but will improve for years ahead.
WA 97 (6/2015): Displaying spectacular aromatics of mulberry, blueberry and raspberry fruit, a dense ruby/purple color, and sweet floral notes, in the mouth the 2005 La Conseillante is not as broad and powerful as Petrus, Trotanoy, Hosanna or Lafleur, but it is gorgeously silky, elegant and stylish. This medium-bodied, savory wine is a graceful, provocative and compelling Pomerol to drink now and over the next 25 years.
NM 97 (2/2015): The Château La Conseillante 2005 has a flamboyant bouquet that just soars from the glass with scents of crème de cassis, blueberry, violets and a hint of black olive. This is far more exuberant than I remember it. The palate is full-bodied with ripe and underpinned by sumptuous tannins. It has extremely well-judged acidity, enormous depth and volume and a complex finish with lightly spice dark cherries, blackcurrant pastilles and minerals. There is a sense of completeness and harmony to this La Conseillante, allied with an audaciousness that is truly compelling.
WS 97 (3/2008): This is decadent and wild on the nose, with fresh cèpe, raw steak and wild berry. Full-bodied, with loads of velvety tannins, yet refined and caressing in every way. A beautiful, balanced red. The best young wine ever from this producer. Best after 2017. 4,165 cases made.
VM 96 (11/2015): Tasted after the Clos L'Eglise, the 2005 La Conseillante simply has more of everything. More richness, body and texture, but at the same time, there is a striking element of underlying minerality that confers freshness. The Conseillante is one of the riper wines of the night, yet all the elements are very much in the right place. A host of dark, jammy flavors meld into the effortless, flamboyant finish, where a kick of sweetness from the French oak adds the closing nuances. What a gorgeous wine this is. Antonio Galloni.
2010 Pomerol ex-Negociant $225 2
JS 98 (2/2013): Beautiful nose with cocoa powder, exotic flowers, candied violets and loads of dark berries. Great aromatic complexity. Amazing texture on palate with a superb precision and silky tannins. So beautifully composed showing already great harmony. Difficult to wait! Better in 2018.
WA 96 (2/2013): A brilliant effort from this property, known for the sheer elegance and finesse of its wines, the 2010 La Conseillante offers back-to-back monumental efforts, particularly given the remarkable 2009. This estate has been on a hot streak of late. The 2010 is a slightly bigger, richer wine, but without losing its floral, elegant mulberry, black raspberry and sweet kirsch notes. Combine those with some licorice, subtle new oak and a hint of forest floor, and the result is a medium to full-bodied, rich, complex wine that has striking aromatics and perfect balance in the mouth. Forget it for 3-5 years and drink it over the following 30.
WS 96 (3/2013): Features substantial but very velvety structure running from start to finish, delivering a muscular feel for now. The hard edges are fully absorbed by the core of plum sauce, steeped blackberry and warm boysenberry reduction notes. The finish offers gorgeous tobacco and ganache accents lurking in the wings, along with flickers of anise and incense that should guide this version to increased elegance with age. Best from 2016 through 2034.
VM 93+ (8/2013): Full red-ruby. Rich aromas of plum, raspberry, mocha and chocolate are energized by minerals and peppery spices. A saline, suave, youthfully restrained midweight, with terrific floral cabernet franc lift contributing to the impression of class and focus. Sweetness is leavened by a savory quality and hints of tobacco and underbrush. Tannins are suave but this firmly structured, subtly long Pomerol really needs eight or ten years to express itself fully. Great potential here.
2010 Pomerol ex-Negociant $229 12
2015 Pomerol ETA 90-120 Days (6x750ML) $1,136.99 5
Ch. L' Eglise Clinet 2014 Pomerol $179 6
JD 96+ (2/2018): One of the more backward wines in the vintage, the 2014 Château L'Eglise Clinet is nevertheless packed with potential. A blend of 90% Merlot and 10% Cabernet Franc brought up in 70% new barrels, this deep ruby/purple colored beauty boasts vibrant notes of blackcurrants, blueberries, violets, tobacco leaf, and damp earth. With full-bodied richness, bright yet integrated acidity, and fine tannin, it has incredible purity and focus, as well as beautiful richness and depth. Give bottle 4-5 years and enjoy over the following 20-25 years.
WA 95 (3/2017): The 2014 L'Eglise Clinet was tasted from a single bottle but from two glasses, each poured at different times before I arrived for the tasting. They were almost identical on the nose but the one poured later was more compact. It has a very pure bouquet with blackberry, myrtle, a touch of iris and a touch of garrigue (actually reminiscent of fynbos, the wild South African shrubland). The palate is medium-bodied with crisp tannin, a silver bead of acidity, wonderful precision and beguiling purity. This is an outstanding Pomerol for the vintage from Denis Durantou, sophisticated and classy, yet the bottom line is quintessentially Pomerol. Bravo Denis.
VM 95 (3/2018): The 2014 L'Eglise-Clinet has a gentle, understated bouquet at first that takes time to open, eventually offering black fruit, melted tar, truffle and bay leaf aromas. The palate is medium-bodied with firm tannin, rather masculine and thickset at the moment, lightly spiced towards the finish. Much like the Vieux-Château-Certan, this is a little awkward in a blind setting however, it clearly meliorates in the glass and I keep on having to up my score. Tasted blind at the annual Southwold tasting. Neal Martin.
WS 94 (3/2017): This has a big ball of raspberry confiture at the core, with dark licorice and warm fruitcake notes. Hedonistic only to a point, as a serious graphite beam runs throughout, giving this serious drive through the finish. This will keep pace with the top dogs in this vintage. Best from 2020 through 2035. 1,835 cases made.
JS 97 (2/2017): The purity of fruit is so alluring in this wine. Aromas of crushed berries, lemon rind and flowers follow through to a full body, firm and silky tannins and a long and flavorful finish. All in finesse and texture. So fine and persistent. Try in 2022 but already an inspiration to taste.
Ch. L' Evangile 2008 Pomerol ETA 90-120 Days (12x750ML) $1,512.99 1
WA 94 (5/2011): A 2,700-case blend of 88% Merlot and 12% Cabernet Franc cropped at a low 27 hectoliters per hectare (compare that with 39 hectoliters per hectare in 2009 and 31 in 2010), this superb claret was aged 18 months in 75% new French oak. Mulberry, spring flower, black cherry and raspberry characteristics as well as hints of spice and coffee emerge from this full-bodied, opulent, structured beauty. It should age effortlessly for 15-20 years.
NM 93+ (3/2012): Fairly deep color. Lovely, open, exotic bouquet is riper, more modern, and slightly less effusive following #1, with a smoky, vanilla, gingerbread, fruitcake quality and a hint of wet wool. Delicious in the mouth, rich and tannic, with sexy fruit, complex acids, concentration, excellent structure, and Outstanding overall balance. It's a wine of vitality and floral elegance, with an extremely long smoky, oaky, gravelly finish. Probably awesome with food. Will improve with cellaring.
JS 93 (12/2010): Chocolate and berry and rich with gorgeous nose. Plums and berries. Full and super soft with a lovely velvety texture. Loads going on. Builds on the palate with a lovely depth of fruit and balance. A beauty.
WS 93 (4/2011): Fleshy, but pure and elegant, with a gorgeous beam of raspberry ganache, plum sauce and cherry preserve laced with subtle graphite, spice and violet hints. The long finish is persistent, but with some admirable power in reserve. Best from 2013 through 2020. 2,700 cases made.
VM 91+ (7/2011): Full, deep red-ruby. Exotic aromas of dark berries, cocoa, underbrush and ink. Thick, broad and full, but with lively acidity giving a light touch to the rich, dense dark fruit, balsamic vinegar and chocolate flavors. Finishes long and oaky, with an opulent, high-alcohol mouthfeel, big tannins and a note of fresh herbs. Stephen Tanzer.
WA 96-98 (5/2011): As I have been predicting, the Rothschilds are pushing l'Evangile to the highest level of the Pomerol hierarchy. Composed of 88.8% Merlot and 11.2% Cabernet Franc, the 2010 achieved 14.7% alcohol naturally, making it one of the few 2010s with lower alcohol than its 2009 counterpart (the 2009 had 15% alcohol and the 2008 had 14.5%). Most of that is due to the superb ripeness and the high concentration of Merlot in 2010. The berries were extremely tiny and the drought and cool nights in August and September gave the 2010 a lower pH and higher acidity than the 2009. For example, the 2010's pH is 3.7, the 2009's is higher and in 2000 it was 4.0. The dense purple-colored 2010 exhibits massive levels of black raspberries, Asian plum sauce, truffles and cassis. The wine is unctuously textured and remarkably fresh with a weighty richness (much like the 2009) but greater delineation. A marvelous effort, it, along with the 2009, may turn out to be one of the two greatest wines made by l'Evangile. The 2010 should drink well young yet last for three decades or more.
WS 94-97 (7/2011): Gorgeous raspberry ganache, fig and boysenberry fruit is liberally laced with fruitcake and graphite. Superracy, with linzer torte and red licorice taking over the finish. Very long, with lots going on here already. Tasted non-blind.
JS 94-95 (4/2011): What a nose, with orange peel, dark berries and blueberries. Full and bright , with super velvety tannins. Acidity is juicy too. Very sumptuous. Creamy tannin texture. 88 percent Merlot and 22 percent Cabernet Franc.
VM 92-95 (6/2011): (89% merlot and 11% cabernet franc; 3.75 pH; 14.7% alcohol) Opaque purple-ruby. Deep, rich aromas of black plum, violet, licorice and chocolate. Extremely broad and impressively large-scaled, with almost shocking sweetness to the jammy red and black fruit flavors. This huge, extract-rich Pomerol comes across as dense and luscious, but may prove almost too much for some wine lovers. The long finish features refined, smooth tannins. I did not get to taste the estate's second wine this year, Blason d'Evangile, as only 6,000 bottles were made and it won't be offered en primeur.
Ch. Lafleur 2008 Pomerol ETA 90-120 Days (6x750ML) $4,120.99 1
JS 96 (2/2015): The nose to this is fascinating with orange peel, mangoes, stones and hints of blanched walnuts. Full-bodied, yet dense and reserved. It shows amazing length and finesse. The finish shows wonderful, subtle and pure fruit. Breathtakingly subtle and complex. Better in 2018 but I love it.
VM 95 (1/2016): The 2012 Lafleur presents a distinctly red-toned profile to match its silky, open-knit personality. Crushed flowers, sweet red cherry, plum, mint and spices are all nicely layered throughout. Medium in body, the 2012 nevertheless possesses lovely depth and pliancy, both of which suggest it will provide readers with a long window of exceptionally fine drinking. Proprietor Baptiste Guinaudeau describes 2012 as a cool vintage of open-knit wines and compares his 2012 to the 2001. This is a superb showing and one of the standouts of the year. Readers will find many terrific 2012s, but Lafleur is distinguished by its soul, something that is not to easy to find in Bordeaux. The 2012 is 55% Cabernet Franc and 45% Merlot. Antonio Galloni.
WA 94+ (4/2015): Deep ruby to the rim, the 2012 Lafleur possesses beautiful kirsch, sweet raspberry fruit, ripe tannin, and a lushness and roundness. It is medium to full-bodied and complex, with an exceptional texture and purity – all hallmarks of this property. This wine should drink well for another 15 or more years.
NM 94 (1/2016): Tasted blind at the Southwold 2012 tasting, the 2012 Lafleur has a very well-defined bouquet that is complex and laden with blackberry, granite, cedar and veins of graphite, all with razor-like precision. The palate is medium-bodied with fine delineation and lovely poise. There are plenty of graphite-infused black fruit interwoven into this Pomerol with a cheeky dab of spiciness on the finish that needs to manifest just a little more precision in order that it attains full potential. As usual, Baptiste, Julie and Jacques Guinaudeau have conjured a serious Lafleur destined for long-term ageing.
2013 Pomerol ETA 90-120 Days (3x1.5L) $2,323.99 1
JS 97-98 (3/2015): This is very tight and chewy with polished and intense tannins. Full-bodied with blueberries, blackberries, minerals and fine tannins. This is more Pauillac than many top Pauillac estates. Cabernet franc always makes the quality here and it's 56% this year. Rest is merlot. Superb.
VM 94-97 (4/2015): The 2014 Lafleur-Pétrus is one of the most captivating wines of the vintage for the way it marries power and finesse. Soaring aromatics open up in the glass, with scents of sweet herbs, rose petals, juniper berries, mint and raspberries. Huge and resonant on the palate yet with remarkable nuance, the 2014 is all about harmony. The magnificent, layered finish proves to be utterly irresistible. In 2014 the blend is 93% Merlot and 7% Cabernet Franc, taken from the three sites that now constitute the entirety of the property. The combination of mostly gravelly soils with some clay and iron yields a Pomerol of pure pedigree.
NM 94-96 (4/2015): The Château Lafleur 2014 is a blend of 44% Merlot picked on 25 September and 56% Cabernet Franc picked on 5 and 6 October, the yields coming in at 28 hectoliters per hectare. Bright purple in color, the bouquet is pixelated. It is decidedly neither powerful or voluminous but instead very subtle and reflects its terroir, hints of sous-bois and truffle filtering through with aeration. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine, very precise tannin and nigh on perfect acidity. There is the trademark Lafleur structure and sense of "authority" here, perhaps a little more salinity emerging towards the finish compared to other vintages with a touch of spice right on the finish. It will require the patience of a saint, at least a decade in the cellar, but it will reward you with something heavenly.
Ch. Trotanoy 2010 Pomerol $299 3
WA 98 (2/2013): Think of this wine as the 1998 on steroids! Showing better out of bottle than it did from barrel, this wine has put on considerable weight. It is full-bodied, masculine (as most vintages of Trotanoy tend to be), with loads of earthy, foresty notes intermixed with black and red fruits, a meaty, almost charcuterie note to it, an inky/purple color, some sweetness on the attack, but then the tannins kick in, making the wine seem at least a decade away from accessibility to most consumers. The texture is layered, the purity impressive, and the overall symmetry, balance and integration of all of the wine's building blocks are flawless. Forget it for 10 years and drink it over the following 35 years. Bravo!
WS 98 (3/2013): Dense and slightly chewy, this features girders of charcoal-coated grip running from start to finish, along with bay leaf, smoldering tobacco and warm tar. But don't be fooled—there's also loads of fruit, offering dark plum, blackberry and black currant notes, laced with hints of mulling spice and alder. Terrific old-school grip powers the finish, and should easily pull this through two decades in the cellar. The brick-house Pomerol of the vintage. Best from 2017 through 2040.
JS 98 (2/2013): Stunning nose with wild strawberries, vanilla and raspberries. Opens up with a little time in the glass to sweet licorice, blueberries and some graphite. Round and full on the palate with an amazing fruit and refined tannins. Truly superb. Hard not to drink now. Try from 2016.
VM 96 (8/2013): Good full red. Great depth and complexity to the aromas of raspberry, strawberry, baked bread, tobacco and black olive. Plush, sweet and remarkably mouthfilling, conveying a compelling creaminess of texture but also a magically light touch and Outstanding finesse. The thick flavors of red fruits, cocoa powder, meat and forest floor are perfectly supported by very smooth but serious tannins. Finishes with great persistence. A real essence of Pomerol: one of the sexiest wines of my tastings this spring but it's hard to believe that this wine won't go through a sullen stage in the bottle.

Brian Poole and The Tremeloes play the Apex later this month
Brian Poole and Alan Blakley started the Tremilos (the original Tremeloes) in early 1958 while still at school.
This was the age of rock and roll and friends wanted them to play at small venues and cinemas asked them to play during the intervals between films. Playing their predominantly Buddy Holly and The Crickets set, with Brian Poole wearing his glasses, they soon had many local fans and word spread further afield. Almost before they realised it, they became one of the top dance hall attractions in Great Britain.
Alan Blakley, Dave Munden and Brian Poole found that they could harmonise any song beautifully, so developed a style of their own, with all members sharing vocals. Dave, Brian and Alan were also used as a backing vocal session group by Decca Records on many hit records of the time, including Tommy Steele, US Bonds and the Vernon Girls, amongst others.
In 1960 they were signed to Decca Records, who notoriously chose them over The Beatles, whom they had auditioned on the same day.
They first charted with a version of Twist and Shout (No. 3 in 1963), which owed much to the Beatles' version, followed by a chart topping cover of The Contours' US million-seller Do You Love Me (No. 1 in the same year). Their covers of Roy Orbison's B-side, Candy Man and The Crickets' B-side ballad, Someone Someone entered the UK Singles Chart Top Ten in 1964, with the latter peaking at number two.
Brian Poole parted company with The Tremeloes in 1966, however they continued their successful hit run with Cat Stevens' Here Comes My Baby, Suddenly You Love Me, Hello World, and My Little Lady, and their enduring cover of an old Four Seasons' B-side Silence Is Golden.
The concert sees Brian Poole, Len "Chip" Hawkes and Dave Munden taking you back to the Swinging Sixties, in a great evening of nostalgia.
Brian Poole and The Tremeloes play the Apex, on Sunday, June 25, at 7.30pm.

HBO Orders Second Season of 'Winning Time' Despite Criticism from Showtime Lakers, Jerry West
By Pauly McGuire on May 9, 2022 5 min read
'Winning Time' — the HBO series about the rise of the 1980s Los Angeles Lakers — aired its season one finale last night which focused on the Lakers winning the 1980s NA championship during Magic Johnson's rookie season. HBO ordered a second season of 'Winning Time', much to the dismay of their biggest critics — which included Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Jerry West.

'Winning Time' is based on true events, but the creators took many liberties when telling the story about the rise of the Lakers dynasty. They hit all the highlights, but filled in the blanks with storylines — many of which did not happen, or were perverted versions of actual moments. Hardcore Lakers fans might've lost interest when 'Winning Time' did not stick to the facts, but casual fans enjoyed catching a fictionalized glimpse of the earliest days of the Showtime Lakers.
Let's face it, the current batch the Lakers were utterly awful this season and fans were craving for nostalgia. LeBron James and the Lakers were one of the betting favorites to win the 2022 NBA championship, and they failed to even qualify for the Play-In Tournament. We were among the many trolls who referred to the Lakers as "Losing Time" during their ugliest stretch in March and April, which was the antithesis of 'Winning Time' and the Magic and Abdul-Jabbar led Showtime Lakers.
Magic and Kareem Dis Winning Time
Magic Johnson claimed he did not watch 'Winning Time', yet claimed it was inaccurate.
"I haven't seen it," said Magic. "But of course I know it's not (good) because there's no Lakers around telling that story."
Abdul-Jabbar, the NBA's all-time leading scorer, watched the first episode and did not have kind things to say about the show or his portrayal in an essay in his weekly newsletter.
"The characters are crude stick-figure representations that resemble real people the way Lego Han Solo resembles Harrison Ford," wrote Abdul-Jabbar. "Each character is reduced to a single bold trait as if the writers were afraid anything more complex would tax the viewers' comprehension. Jerry Buss is Egomaniac Entrepreneur, Jerry West is Crazed Coach, Magic Johnson is Sexual Simpleton, I'm Pompous Prick. They are caricatures, not characters. Amusement park portraits that emphasize one physical feature to amplify your appearance—but never touching the essence."
Abdul-Jabbar admitted he saw only the first episode. Obviously, it takes time for characters to develop and the story lines to pick up. Winning Time doesn't hit its full stride until the third or fourth episode, but Abdul-Jabbar had a valid case. Even the best documentary or near-perfect dramatization of real events will never match up to what happened in real life.
Hollywood is in the business of entertaining people and no matter what story is told — whether it's another reboot of a comic book hero, or the rise of your favorite sports team — viewers only get to watch the story through the lens and perspective of the storyteller. In this instance, we're getting the story of the Showtime Lakers through the creative lens of showrunners Max Borenstein and Jim Hecht, which is based on a book by Jeff Pearlman.
Jerry West Wants to Sue… Everybody
Jerry West did not like how he was captured in 'Winning Time', and he was so pissed off that he demanded an apology and retraction from HBO.
In the first episode of 'Winning Time', we meet West — played by Australian actor Jason Clarke — as an unhappy head coach who steps down when Jerry Buss buys the Lakers. West is an ultra-competitive hothead that never got over the fact that the Lakers were never good enough to beat the Boston Celtics during his peak years as a pro baller. He struggles with his post-playing life but flounders as a head coach because he coached a crappy team.
West eventually becomes one of the greatest general manager and front office executives in the history of the NBA, but 'Winning Time' captures his gap year between coaching and joining the front office full time.
"The portrayal of NBA icon and LA Lakers legend Jerry West in 'Winning Time' is fiction pretending to be fact — a deliberately false characterization that has caused great distress to Jerry and his family," said West's attorney Skip Miller. "Contrary to the baseless portrayal in the HBO series, Jerry had nothing but love for and harmony with the Lakers organization, and in particular owner Dr. Jerry Buss, during an era in which he assembled one of the greatest teams in NBA history."
The writing staff took a few artistic liberties in telling the story, but West emerged as one of the best characters on 'Winning Time'. He was involved in some of the best and funniest scenes, yet the real-life hated how he was lampooned.
HBO defended their showrunners and did not offer an apology to West.

On Deck: Season 2 of Winning Time
HBO ordered a second season of 'Winning Time' and the creative team is already working on the next season. Fans are wondering how far they will jump ahead in the timeline, like will it focus on the peak Bird vs Magic years in the mid-1980s, or will it focus on Magic retiring after he contracted HIV?
In a interview with Deadline, executive producer Max Borenstein hints at what will happen in the second season. It seems like the next season will pick up right after the Lakers won the 1980 NBA championship.
In the 1980-81 season, the Lakers have a falling out with head coach Paul Westhead, who tries to slow down the Showtime Lakers when he tries to put his own imprint on the team. The Lakers get knocked out of the playoffs in the first round, which leads to Westhead's dismissal by Buss. Pat Riley takes over as head coach for the next season in 1981-82 and the rest is history. Riley reverts back to the run-and-gun style originally introduced by Jack McKinney and the Lakers defeat the Philadelphia 76ers to win the 1982 championship.
If you're expecting the Bird vs Magic in the NBA Finals, you might have to wait to at least the third season of 'Winning Time'… if there is a third season. I really cannot wait to see who plays Kurt Rambis, James Worthy, and Byron Scott from the Lakers. Plus, which actors will play other iconic members of the 1980s Celtics like head coach KC Jones, and players like Kevin McHale, Robert Parrish, Dennis Johnson, and Danny Ainge.

Roadside bombing in Egypt's Sinai kills 2 police
admin — January 2, 2021 6:55 am add comment
EL-ARISH, Egypt (AP) — A roadside bomb went off Friday in Egypt's northern Sinai Peninsula, killing two members of the country's security forces and wounding five, security and medical officials said.
According to the officials, the security forces were patrolling in the town of Bir al-Abd when their armored vehicle was hit by a remotely-detonated bomb. The wounded were transferred to a military hospital in Sinai's coastal city of El-Arish. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the attacks with the media.
Friday's bombing was the second in the past three days. On Wednesday, one member of the security forces was killed and three were wounded in a roadside bombing in a village near Rafah, a town on the border with the Gaza Strip.

There was no clear claim of responsibility for Friday's attack, but the Islamic State group posted a statement on Friday, saying it was behind Wednesday's bombing and three other recent attacks. The claims could not be independently verified.
Egypt has been battling an Islamic State-led insurgency in Sinai that intensified after the military overthrew an Islamist president, Mohammed Morsi, in 2013. The militants have carried out scores of attacks, mainly targeting security forces and minority Christians.
The conflict has largely taken place out of the public arena, with journalists and outside observers barred from the area. So far, the fighting has not expanded to the southern end of the peninsula, where popular Red Sea tourist resorts are located.
But in 2015, an Islamic State bombing brought down over Sinai a Russian passenger plane that had departed from the resort Sharm el-Sheikh, killing all 224 people on board.
In February 2018, the Egyptian military launched a massive operation in Sinai and also in parts of the Nile Delta region and the desert along the country's western border with Libya. Since then, the pace of IS attacks has diminished.

Windows 10 users must update by this date, or risk putting their PC in danger
15/09/2020 in Security
WINDOWS 10 users have been placed on alert, with those running a specific version of the market-leading OS having to update their PCs quickly or risk putting their machines in danger.
Microsoft has today put scores of Windows 10 users on alert, with those running an older build of the world's most popular desktop OS needing to update ASAP. If you're among the Windows 10 users who still haven't updated from version 1903 (aka the Windows 10 May 2019 update) then you better do so fast as support for the patch will be ending soon. The Redmond-based tech giant has revealed that on December 8 the Windows 10 May 2019 update will be reaching its end of service.
This means Microsoft will stop providing technical support for the update from that date and will stop releasing bug fixes for newly discovered issues or security fixes for vulnerabilities.
So any Windows 10 users running version 1903 from that date risk opening their PCs up to a range of issues which could end up wreaking havoc on their machines.
Microsoft advises that anyone using software which reaches its end of service should upgrade as soon as possible to keep their PCs safe from attacks.
The news was revealed in an official post by Microsoft which said: "Your computer will still work, but it could become more vulnerable to security risks and viruses because you won't receive new security updates or other quality updates.
"Microsoft offers complimentary support to ensure that your device has the latest updates installed and requires that your device be up to date before assisting with other technical support issues".
Microsoft has said that support for all Windows 10 1903 editions will finish in December.
These editions are as follows: Windows 10 Home, version 1903, Windows 10 Pro version 1903, Windows 10 Pro Education version 1903, Windows 10 Pro for Workstations version 1903, Windows 10 Enterprise version 1903, Windows 10 Education version 1903, Windows 10 IoT Enterprise version 1903.
The Windows 10 makers added: "These editions will no longer receive security updates after December 8, 2020.
"Customers who contact Microsoft Support after this date will be directed to update their device to the latest version of Windows 10 to remain supported."
If you're running Windows 10 version 1903 right now and wish to upgrade then you can do so manually by selecting 'check for updates' via the Windows Update screen.
Upgrading to the latest version of Windows 10 not only brings with it the latest security fixes but the latest new features for the OS too.
And one of these potential new, inbound features was reported by Express.co.uk earlier this week, with Microsoft testing enhanced video calling in Windows 10.
The hidden new feature, called Meet Now, was first spotted by Microsoft developer Rafael Rivera.
Rivera outlined how this feature works, with a shortcut button visible in the Windows 10 Taskbar which lets users quickly access a video call wherever they are in the OS.
Once this is clicked a window will then automatically appear asking you to 'create a meeting' or 'join a meeting.'
Tapping the button will then instantly start a call via Skype. The feature has been in testing, with it unclear if or when Microsoft will roll out the functionality to the millions of Windows 10 users around the world.

Apple App Store downloads pass the two billion mark
It's official: the App Store is growing like a weed. This past July, Apple issued an App Store status report of sorts — stating that its on-device software distribution platform had amassed over 65,000 apps that had been collectively downloaded over 1.5 billion times. Astonishing, especially considering the App Store was only a year old at that point in time. Now, roughly two and a half months later, Apple just announced it has passed the two billion mark where downloads are concerned and its catalog contains over 85,000 apps. To recap, that's 500 million downloads and 20,000 new apps in less than three months. We wonder how many of them are to do lists.

The International Trade Fair for Recycling Management and Environmental Technology in Cologne, from 27 to 30 October 2009
International eco-industry meets up for the business platform of the year in Cologne
Entsorga-Enteco 2009 brings together all the market participants in international recycling management and environmental technology. International presence never higher, among exhibitors and visitors alike. Topclass supporting programme, dealing with the latest topics.
The International Trade Fair for Recycling Management and Environmental Technology in Cologne, from 27 to 30 October 2009, once again offers trade visitors from all around the world a first-class spectacle. After conceptual restructuring with a strong emphasis on environmental technology, which was implemented extremely successfully at the last event in October 2006, ENTSORGA-ENTECO combines – for the second time – all sectors of the international recycling management industry and environmental technology in the Cathedral city.
Entsorga-Enteco reflects the entire market like no other event this year, with offerings under the headings "Waste Management and Recycling", "Incineration and Renewable Energies", "Water and Liquid Waste", Local Authority and Environmental Services", "Technology and Logistics", "Air Quality Control and Emissions Protection", "Health and Safety at Work and Noise Protection", as well as "Research and Organisation". Cologne, located in the heart of North Rhine Westphalia, offers the ideal conditions for this. North Rhine Westphalia has the largest environmental market in Germany. Recycling management and
environmental technology are important economic factors, promoted by economic policy, and are key technologies in the state.
Koelnmesse, along with the organisers and the conceptual sponsors of ENTSORGA-ENTECO, the Federal Association of the German Waste Disposal Industry (BDE) and the German Engineering Federation (VDMA) Associations for Thermal Processing and Waste Management Technology and General Air-Handling Technology, are committed to extending still further the international relevance and appeal of the event in 2009.
"The wide range of products and services makes Entsorga-Enteco the leading event of its type in 2009. By enhancing the international nature of the event we are further extending its role both at home and abroad," says Gerald Böse, CEO of Koelnmesse GmbH. A good four months before Entsorga-Enteco 2009, the event appears ideally set up to assume a trend-setting position in the market once again. Around 800
exhibitors from over 20 countries are expected in halls 6, 7 and 8, as well as on the Koelnmesse open-air site. Following on from 2006, when Entsorga-Enteco boasted an impressive international presence amounting to about. 25 % among the exhibitors and 30 % on the visitors' side, this year's event already promises an equally good outcome. Groups from the United Kingdom, Austria, Switzerland, Italy, Russia and Finland have already announced their intention to attend Entsorga-Enteco 2009. Conversations are currently being conducted with other interested parties from countries such as China, Japan and the Netherlands.
Internationality is also being expanded on the visitor side. To this end intensive contact has been initiated with influential bodies such as trade associations, chambers of commerce and ministries abroad. Decision-makers from France, Finland, Rumania, Singapore, Kazakhstan, China and Korea have already announced their intention to visit Entsorga-Enteco 2009. "We are looking forward to another top-quality Entsorga-Enteco, which will provide the market with some important stimuli", says Matthias Raith, CEO of the BDE. The VDMA is also heading into the finishing straight for Entsorga-Enteco 2009.
"Our members are already making intensive preparations for their appearance at the trade fair. VDMA will also once again be heavily involved in the technical supporting programme for Entsorga-Enteco," stresses Dr. Gutmann Habig, Chairman of the Association for Thermal Process and Waste Technology in the VDMA. Once again this year we will also be reinforcing the technology side of waste disposal technology and air pollution control, paying special regard to energy efficient solutions" adds Dr. Thomas Schräder, Chairman of the trade association Air-Handling Technology in the VDMA.
Technical supporting programme picks up on some new trends. This year's Entsorga-Enteco is for the first time all about two trend topics. These are "Climate and Resource Protection" and "Energy Efficiency in
Environmental Technology" These themes also form the umbrella for the technical supporting programme. Lectures, forums and special shows, all precisely tailored to the needs of the industry, will supplement the exhibition area and reinforce the attractive range of options at the event. Central piazza combines elements of the supporting programme For the first time a central piazza acting as a special communication platform will combine numerous elements of the supporting programme, such as podium discussions, the special show entitled "CO2 – a Substance and its History" or the "Speakers' Corner". An integrated catering area offers the perfect opportunity to exchange ideas and impressions.
Eastern European Environmental Summit
Particular attention is devoted to the young environmental markets in the new EU member states. The focus here is on market analysis, investment needs and a contact point for interested parties. In addition to which, exhibitor and visitor groups from Eastern Europe are being invited, the development of the Eastern European environmental market will be presented and business matchmaking will be offered in the context of the Eastern European Environmental Summit, which takes place from 29 to 30 October.
Environmental Market UK
Great Britain, a powerful partner nation from the west of Europe, will be presenting its own national concept. The UK environmental market brings together supply and demand for necessary technologies and services, offering a platform for making contacts and exchanging ideas. High-ranking British delegations, with representatives from the environmental management sector and politics, are expected in Cologne to offer concrete projects to interested exhibitors and visitors at the trade fair. Environmental Market UK takes place on 28 October.
VDMA Practical Biomass Processing Days
Following their great success in the context of Entsorga-Enteco 2006, the VDMA will again be presenting its VDMA Preparation Technology Practical Days. On the open-air site of Entsorga-Enteco, the capabilities of the machinery and plant providers will be very clearly demonstrated to guided groups, covering numerous machines such as filtration systems or macerators, in the various stages of biomass processing. Active corporate succession deals with an important topic for the industry.
The topic of corporate succession is one of special significance for the recycling management and environmental technology industry, largely made up as it is of medium-sized businesses. In cooperation with HMO Management Consult, Entsorga-Enteco will be offering its exhibitors and visitors a comprehensive range of information on how corporate succession can be handled, throughout the whole exhibition period.
Numerous trade events and membership meetings at Entsorga-Enteco. Numerous additional association events supplement the Entsorga-Enteco programme and underline its significance as the industry platform of the year. For example, the VKS in the VKU (the association of local authority waste management and town cleaning services in the association of local public enterprises) is once again holding its meeting of members in the course of the trade fair, along with podium discussions and trade events. The EdDE (the waste management cooperative of the German waste management industry), the VBU (the association of company representatives for environmental protection) and the BDE (the German federation of waste management companies) will also be using the opportunity to meet up with their members in Cologne.
Online Shop open with immediate effect
Entsorga-Enteco 2009 will be open from 9 am to 6 pm every day from 27 to 30 October. Visitors enter the halls via the North entrance to Koelnmesse. The entry tickets also act as free tickets for the entire local public transport network in the VRS [Rhine-Sieg] region. Entry tickets can be bought in advance via Köln-Ticket, or with immediate effect directly via the Online Shop at www.entsorgaenteco.de.

Bill Sullivan, Tampa Tower and TRACON
On March 1, 2012, air traffic controller Bill Sullivan was directing a Piper Malibu [PA-46, N377HC] from Tampa Executive Airport to Tampa International Airport (TPA). But shortly after takeoff, the pilot declared an emergency due to flight control problems.
N377HC: Seven Hotel Charlie we got an emergency.
Sullivan: Seven Hotel Charlie state the nature of the emergency.
N377HC: I'm losing my controls.
Sullivan: Alright sir, do you need, do you want to land at Tampa International? Do you want to land back at Vandenburg? Or where do you want to go?
N377HC: You tell me, I'm trying to get my act together.
Realizing his best plan of action would be redirecting the pilot back to Tampa Executive, Sullivan began giving him the necessary coordinates to return to the airport. At the same time, he began handing off some of his workload so he could focus on the situation at hand and ensure that the service to the other flights he was responsible for would not be degraded.
The pilot was in clear distress. His breathing became rapid and he was unable to communicate his situation with Sullivan as he attempted to steer the aircraft in response to the turns being issued.
Sullivan continued directing the pilot until he finally saw the airport.
N377HC: How much further is this airport?
Sullivan: Seven Hotel Charlie, at your 11-10 o'clock now in about two and a half miles. It's just on the other side of that interstate, sir…
Sullivan worked for several more minutes to assist the pilot in finding the airport, repeatedly pointing out its proximity to the interstate.
N377HC: Seven Hotel Charlie, got it! Finally!
Sullivan: Okay, sir. You can go ahead and resume navigation to the airport.
N377HC: Don't leave me; this ain't over.
Sullivan: No, sir. I'll be right here.
Sullivan stayed with the pilot until he landed safely. When the pilot did land, he asked Sullivan for a favor – could he place an important phone call? The pilot asked if Sullivan could call his wife and let her know that he was no longer going to be at Tampa International and would need to be picked up at Tampa Executive.
Sometimes, being an air traffic controller is more than just directing air traffic. Sometimes you might need to direct someone's wife to an airport.

Classic and Retro Manchester United Football Shirts
The Red Devils seem to have attracted almost as many column inches discussing their kits as they have regarding their football. Even today their kits are in the news as thousands of supporters regularly don replica versions of the yellow and green halved jerseys worn by the team in their Newton Heath days as a mark of protest against the Glazers' continued ownership of the club.But it is United's regular combination of red football shirts, white shorts and black socks that are known and feared throughout football. The club first wore the strip in 1902 which coincided with their name change to 'Manchester United', and apart from, most notably, a five year period in the 1920s when they pulled on all white kit with a large red 'V' on the chest, it has been sported by the Old Trafford side pretty much ever since. The club have always paid great attention to their kit. In 1955 they were one of the first, if not the first, to wear new continental-style lightweight V-neck shirts and the side still regularly switch to black shorts away from home if a shorts colour clash occurs. Of late, under Sir Alex Ferguson's guidance, they have also started wearing white socks in evening games, especially in Europe, with the colour deemed to be more visible under floodlights than black. White is United's traditional away colour, although blue has often also been worn. The club's infamous grey invisible away kit from the 1995-96 season has gone down in kit folklore after Fergie, during a match at Southampton with the Red Devils losing 3-0, claimed that his grey-clad players couldn't see each other on the pitch and demanded that the team switch to their blue third kit at half time. It made no difference and the Saints still won the game. Sharp Electronics were the club's first sponsor in 1982 and remained with the club for an incredible 18 years.

Best Breakfast Sandwich: Fair Pour Café's 'The Jammy Sammy'
Like most folks, I've had my fair share of breakfast sandwiches. It's a simple, yet tried-and-true concoction that consists of more or less the same ingredients: some sort of bread, meat, egg and cheese. There are dozens of variations and many have their favorites. And now, I have a new one. I tried "The Jammy Sammy" at Fair Pour Café (6 North Main Street, #125 in Fairport) earlier this year while having coffee with my cousin. She ordered it first, and I followed suit, thinking the combination of a Bianca roll, fried egg, goat cheese, triple berry jam and arugula sounded different and intriguing. It wasn't just intriguing – it was succulently orgasmic.
One bite and the runny yolk and jam oozed out of every corner of the crusty roll. The creamy, tangy goat cheese played well against the sweet berry jam and the peppery notes of arugula. It just hit every note of my palate, creating a perfectly rounded and delicious breakfast. It's messy, but worth it. It's one of the few times in my life I've licked the plate (in public). fairpour.com

Best New Rochester Transplant: Other Half Brewing
The craft beer movement has exploded over the last decade, and Rochester's rabid fans always seem to be itching for more. Other Half Brewing from Brooklyn witnessed this firsthand, when hundreds lined up before sunrise on a cold, wintery Saturday morning in March for a mobile can release at Tap and Mallet in the South Wedge. The brewers sold out of 400 cases of their product by noon.
Then in July, it was announced that Other Half had bought the space formerly occupied by Nedloh Brewing Co. (which closed last fall) at 6621 Routes 5 and 20 in East Bloomfield and planned to open up shop here, bringing with them their hoppy IPA's that drives beer nerds wild. It's not to say the Rochester area doesn't have a strong craft beer scene already (it does), but I don't think adding another option is something craft beer fans will object to (I don't). Other Half's expected open date is as hazy as its brews, and is dependent somewhat on state and local permit approvals, but when it does crack open, I expect drinkers will welcome this new Rochester transplant with open arms and a hearty "Cheers!" otherhalfbrewing.com
Best Bait & Switch of 2018: Downtown Parking Meter Prices
Rochester leaders have long aimed to bring more people downtown to boost business and tourism. But parking is usually an issue. I've heard people complain there simply isn't enough parking, or that it's too expensive. So it caught many downtown businesses off guard when in late June, the city extended metered parking times by two hours to 8 p.m. The city's reasoning? It needed the extra revenue. That's understandable. But many business owners were outraged, complaining that customers wouldn't come downtown for dinner or other evening activities because of it, or they'd simply give their money to Uber or Lyft instead.
By late August, city leaders had seemingly bent to the pressure, and the metered parking times went back to its original hours (8 a.m.-6 p.m. on weekdays), but with a higher rate of $2 an hour instead of $1.50. I don't know if the extra 50 cents an hour will still be a deterrent to people coming downtown. I don't know if it'll help the city make up the difference in the budget. I don't know if this was the city's plan all along. What I do know is that it's an awfully convenient way to quiet the noise, at least in the short run.
Best Long-Overdue Decision: Settling on a new DMV location within city limits
A major piece that gets lost in the talk of Rochester's urban renewal is livability: maintaining a safe place to work, play, live, learn, mingle, and manage basic needs. Rochester has a long way to go on this issue, but it's worth noting a small, easily forgettable decision that made many Rochesterians' experience a bit more livable. A permanent Department of Motor Vehicles office in downtown Rochester has at last been opened. For 15 years, city residents had to guess or Google where to complete mandatory, mundane tasks like renewing a license or ID, surrendering plates, or applying for a driver's permit.
DMVs existed in Irondequoit, Greece, Henrietta and other suburbs. The city of Rochester was covered by a roving unit with limited hours, shuffling from location to location – much to the detriment of the region's 16,000-plus bus riders, the poor, and anyone who didn't want to go to a strip mall to update their registration. More than a Morton's The Steakhouse, another brewery, coffeehouse or bar named after a verb, this addition is a plus for most of Rochester.

Best Resource for Aspiring Filmmakers: Animatus Studio
In a building tucked back slightly from the road at 34 Winthrop Street in downtown Rochester, Animatus Studio has an unassuming appearance, in keeping with its status as one of the more unsung institutions of the city's film culture. And inside, Animatus is a veritable hive of creativity. Founded by filmmaker Fred Armstrong, the studio is brimming with ephemera from animation history, including an entire room devoted to The Beatles' "Yellow Submarine," the film that first opened Armstrong's eyes to the more unconventional possibilities of the medium.
In addition to being a full-service animation studio, Animatus offers workshops for aspiring movie-makers throughout the year, providing training in traditional, paper cut-out, and clay animation techniques. Over the years, the studio has produced some impressive alumni, Oscar-winning Disney animator Brian Menz ("Frozen," "Big Hero 6") being just one example. Animation is Armstrong's calling, and through Animatus – celebrating its 30th anniversary this coming year – he continues to spread that passion by inspiring a new generation of young filmmakers. animatusstudio.com

Best Smile: Ruby Sparkles
Ruby Sparkles is Rochester's premier peeler-and-squealer, a buxom stripteaser who, as everybody knows, likes to dispose of her clothes on the bandstand. Of all the burlesque practitioners in Rochester, Ruby Sparkles is the most traditional performer, carrying the torch of those who shimmied and shook generations before her – legends like Blaze Starr, Tempest Storm, and Dixie Evans. But it's not her legs as she prances just out of reach. Nor is it her pasties as she spins them like twin lawn-mower blades. No, it's her infectious smile: like a come-hither kiss, a silent laugh that as a topper to her performance, all adds up to WOW.facebook.com/SirensStilettosCabaret/

Best Concert Trend/Overkill: Tribute Shows
Tribute shows have taken hold in the Rochester music scene, with no signs of easing up. Did it happen overnight? Seemingly, there isn't a week that goes by without a local band playing a classic rock album live, in its entirety, or a collective of musicians paying homage to an influential musical legend with a set wholly populated by covers. I don't mean to go full-curmudgeon. I've toyed with the idea of planning a Jeff Buckley tribute show myself. Great music and the consequential artists who've created it deserve to be celebrated. And if concertgoers clamor for it, and the hosting venues and promoters benefit from increased traffic and revenue, I say "Godspeed.
But there are such things as diminishing returns, and I worry that if the local scene is consistently saturated with such concerts, it could dilute the meaningfulness of such events in the future. Additionally, more time and value given to the performance of covers mean Rochester musicians have less opportunity to showcase their own songs. But I'm a naysayer with solutions. What if artists performed covers of an icon alongside originals inspired by that artist? I'm just sayin'.

Best Road for International Food: Clinton Avenue
Rochester's cultural diversity is one its greatest qualities, and it's abundantly clear from the plethora of international cuisine options in the city. To get a flavor for foods from a wide swathe of cultural traditions, a tour of Clinton Avenue may be your best bet. On South Clinton Avenue, just past South Goodman Street, a veritable cornucopia awaits.
India House, at 998 South Clinton Avenue, is a mainstay; a bit farther south on the road, Ming's Noodle at 1038 South Clinton Avenue offers a variety of hearty Asian soups, including pho. For first-rate sushi, Shiki is mere steps away at 1054 South Clinton Avenue. And Ethiopian food is your jam, you can choose between Zemeta, 1009 South Clinton Avenue, and Addis Ababa, nearby at 752 South Goodman Street. There are plenty of choices on North Clinton Avenue as well. Sobrinos, at 1456 North Clinton Avenue, serves traditional fare from multiple Hispanic culinary traditions; meanwhile, on 973 North Clinton Avenue, El Pilón Criollo focuses on mouth-watering Puerto Rican foods. Atlas Eats, located at 2185 North Clinton Avenue, features influences spanning from the Mediterranean to the Korean peninsula. Whether you're headed north or south, no street in Rochester is more densely populated with varied restaurants featuring dishes from all over the world than Clinton Avenue.

Information about arts disciplines – dance, orchestras, documentaries
http://www.canadacouncil.ca/en/dance/dance-mapping-study
A component of the Canada Dance Mapping Study – which seeks to provide a comprehensive profile of the breadth and dance activity across Canada – this literature review examines a number of research sources regarding the state of dance in Canada, including professional, non-professional, and social dance. The report also identifies gaps in the research literature regarding dance. In fact, the report indicates that there is a "lack of literature and documentation that captures the full scope and breadth of dance". In particular, the report notes that the non-professional dance area is poorly covered by existing research.
The literature review is organized around six key themes: dance policy, economics, ecology, social aspects, digital technologies, and artistic expression. Regarding dance policy, the report outlines cultural policy orientations at the federal and provincial levels, including copyright legislation, the impact of digital technologies, "streamlining of funding support", emphasis on quality of life, arts education, professional development, and "the importance of foreign markets for artists and arts organizations". The report also notes that there has been a "historical lack of access to programs by culturally diverse artists".
Regarding the economic situation of dance, the report indicates that there has been a "globalization of the dance economy". In Canada, the report points out that "there are no specific studies that provide an analysis of the contribution of the dance field to the creative and general economy". The report highlights the "lack of growth in public funding to the professional dance sector" in a context of a "doubling of the number of companies funded" by public funders. The literature review indicates that, despite increases in earned and private sector support, this situation has led to a lack of stability, with dance organizations struggling "to plan ahead, maintain quality, and attract and retain talented staff".
The dance ecology is comprised of more than 100 professional companies in Canada, although this number probably excludes "many emerging and 'micro' companies" as well as some new dance styles and some companies expressing diverse and Aboriginal cultures. The number of professional dancers is estimated to be over 7,300, and they have, on average, over eight years of professional training. Despite this level of training, dancers typically have "very low wages and primarily contract work or self-employment". The literature review notes that the dance infrastructure (defined to include facilities, personnel, and other systems supporting professional dance) "is the least developed of all the performing arts".
According to the study, the social aspect of dance is not well documented, although there do "appear to be many avenues for Canadians to engage with dance socially", including opportunities to take lessons, attend presentations, and participate in competitions. One of the areas where a report does exist relates to Aboriginal dance participation, where the report cites "a large number of dance groups and great uptake by powwows and in the schools".
The literature review indicates that "new digital technologies have had an enormous impact on dance in Canada", with many artists integrating video and animation into dance creation. Overall, "Canadian dance artists are recognized pioneers in the development and integration of interactive computer applications to dance making". Dance is accessible on television competitions and via digital distribution of dance videos.
Regarding artistic expression, the report cites the wide range of dance practices in Canada, but research sources reviewed in the report indicate that there is a "lack of resources to sustain innovation for the benefit of Canadian and international audiences". Key factors in the development of dance expression include "opportunities for risk-taking and creative renewal", critical discourse, access to foreign markets, "opportunities for touring and cultural exchanges", as well as the further integration of digital technologies into dance works.

Take Five: Places to Visit in 2014
January 6, 2014 Updated: 03:38:00
As another year is upon us, thoughts are turning already to the summer and to dreams of destinations sunnier. Tootlafrance.ie takes a look at some up-and-coming destinations in France which any visitor to France should target in 2014.
1. Cherbourg – Missing you Already
Hundreds of thousands of Irish people drive off the ferry at Cherbourg and keep driving for several hours more. This is a pity because for anyone going on holiday to France in 2014 – whether it is on family holiday to France on booze-cruise or other, Cherbourg is well worth a detour. It is one of those French cities that has transformed itself in recent years, taking a big budget, rolling up its sleeves and reinventing itself with panache and verve as only French towns do.
Stroll along the elegant quays, whose charm may just surprise you and where great restaurants won't bite your hand and your wallet off or take one of the local €3 bus trips that take you around the coastal districts of Cherbourg to discover some of its heritage with jovial locals. Check out the Italianate Theatre or bring the family to see the Cité de la Mer.
2. Grenoble – Alpine Rugby Town
Even if the growing Irish contingent in the local top-flight rugby team here (two coaches and two players) doesn't convince you to visit Grenoble this year, then prepare to be seduced by its city centre full of meandering streets with their mixture of Savoyard and French 19th-century architecture and through which its trams and trolley-cars snake through, dinging their bells like so many Alpine cows.
This is one of the most dynamic cities in France and in the whole world for that matter. Science and tradition have gone hand in hand in this city for several decades and its energy is infectious no matter how short or long your stay. If you're around for the 14th of July, the fireworks display from the citadel high above the old city centre is one of the best in France.
3. Bordeaux – Wine Geese and Wide Rivers
With its regular air link through Aer Lingus, there is really no excuse not to go down to Bordeaux in 2014. There is no other city that has such a wide bright and brilliantly elegant river front, where room has been created for fun as much as for culture fans. You're unlikely to find a more family-friendly city centre anywhere else in Europe.
Another reason to go to Bordeaux this is the fact that the bi-annual Wine Fair is happening this year at the end of June. For those who might have visited Bordeaux ten years ago or more, be advised that the city has received a major revamping and the once sombre city by the Gironde now gleams and grooves in a thoroughly bright fun and elegant way.
4. Lille – Northern Heartland of the Great War
The capital of French Flanders is another city that suffered from post-industrialization blues, but it's all go for 2014 in this city that finds itself in the heart of WWI Country. For the year that's in it, millions are expected to flock to the area to explore the heritage of the Great War in a series of commemorations that will continue over the next four years (well, it's better than a real war, isn't it?)
The revitalization of the city is impressive and the vibrant local tourism organisation offers some neatly-packaged packages that will suit all visitors to Lille – from the "hidden" Lille of exploring the river and the lesser-known streets to the gastronomic wealth of the city to the tour of flea markets and traditional markets.
5. Perpignan – Catalan City, Mediterranean Heart
Given the continued number of flights not only directly to Perpignan itself but to so many other cities nearby, this russet city – permanently bathed in the red-and-yellow flags of Catalonia – is destined to become even more popular with Irish visitors in 2014.
Munster people have already discovered it over the years, after countless victorious raids from its own red army of rugby warriors. They don't mind down here because they're friendly outdoors-type folk. This summer, look out for the Thursday nights, which are mediaeval re-enactment nights or explore its atmospheric streets with the aid of new mobile app that gives you a personal tour guide.
