  • Pinot Noir Appellation
    Cobblestone Vineyards From his humble beginnings on a Michigan farm, Saul Levine became an FM radio pioneer in 1959 launching Mt. Wilson FM Broadcasters in Southern California. Levine’s radio success helped him get back to his roots, and with his wife Anita he started Cobblestone Vineyards. For over 30 years Cobblestone only grew grapes for premium California wineries, until 2004 when the Levines released their own wines under the Cobblestone label. The First Cobblestone estate began in 1972, in Monterey County. This Vineyard has grown to 50 acres and is planted to Chardonnay. In 1997, they purchased 25 acres high in the slopes of Atlas Peak North East of the town of Napa. This Vineyard led to their very first commercial release of Cabernet Sauvignon in 2001.

  • Romeo Alessandro Bragato 1858
    ROMEO ALESSANDRO BRAGATO 1858 - 1913 ‘THE SIGNIFICANCE OF HIS WORK TO NEW ZEALAND’ THE EARLY YEARS Romeo Bragato was born in 1858 on the Adriatic island of Lussin Piccolo, at that time part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire (now known as Mali Losinj – part of Croatia). His father was Giuseppe and his mother Paolina Depangher was from Vienna. The family may have been involved in salt extraction from sea water. Romeo was the eldest of a family of five children. His two brothers were Massimiliano (Max) and Giulio and his sisters were Marietta and Annelie. The two girls spent some of their school years in Lausanne, Switzerland. Romeo’s early schooling was at Pirano on the Istrian peninsular about 30 kms south of Trieste. He first trained as an architect in Vienna and then he attended the Regia Scuola di Viticoltura ed Enologia in Conegliano between 1879 & 1883. Conegliano is in the heart of the Veneto wine growing region. In his last year at Conegliano he gave two addresses, the first on 7 January 1883 on the previous harvest on the islands of Quarnaro & Dalmazia, and the second on 11 February 1884,discussed his findings on crop rotation. Bragato graduated in 1883 with the Diploma R.S.S.V.OE and returned to Lussin Piccolo where he was oenologist at the Istrian Association of Agriculture and later viticulturist and cellarmaster for the Gerolimiche brothers. AUSTRALIA Bragato travelled to Melbourne Australia in 1888 where he became Viticulturist to the Victorian Department of Agriculture. In 1889 he published a report on the potential for viticulture in the State of Victoria.

  • Imagereal Capture
    ARTICLES The Hon Justice Michoel Kirby AC CMG* BLACK AND WHITE LESSONS FOR THE AUSTRALIAN JUDICIARY ABSTRACT Using the 'celluloid metaphor' of the new Australian film Black and White, the author describes the features of the case of Rupert Max Stuart that reached the High Court in 1959. He outlines the imperfections of the legal process and acknowledges that the prisoner's life was ultimately saved not by the legal system or the judicial process but by a dedicated group of journalists and other citizens who shared the High Court's expressed 'anxiety' about the case but were more determined to give effect to that 'anxiety'. The author describes improvements in the criminal justice system since 1959. These include legal protections for indigenous people; the requirements of legal representation as expressed in Dietrich; the rigorous rule for confessions to police adopted in McKinnej.; the stricter rules governing criminal appeals: the larger insistence on prosecutorial impartiality; the enforcement of requirements for competence of lawyers; and the advent of DNA and other scientific * Justice of the High Court of Australia.

The author suggests that the Stuart affair illustrates how cleverness is not enough in the law.

  • Historical Dictionary of International Intelligence Second Edition
    The historical dictionaries present essential information on a broad range of subjects, including American and world history, art, business, cities, countries, cultures, customs, film, global conflicts, international relations, literature, music, philosophy, religion, sports, and theater. Written by experts, all contain highly informative introductory essays on the topic and detailed chronologies that, in some cases, cover vast historical time periods but still manage to heavily feature more recent events. Brief A–Z entries describe the main people, events, politics, social issues, institutions, and policies that make the topic unique, and entries are cross- referenced for ease of browsing. Extensive bibliographies are divided into several general subject areas, providing excellent access points for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more. Additionally, maps, pho- tographs, and appendixes of supplemental information aid high school and college students doing term papers or introductory research projects. In short, the historical dictionaries are the perfect starting point for anyone looking to research in these fields.
