Friday, October 10, 2008 at 9:00AM As we witnessed with the Olympics, allowing the streaming of live sports does not hurt the television ratings....slowly leagues and rights holders will figure this out and make the content available as widely as possible.

MLBAM Makes Some Postseason Games Available Online—But Only To Boingo Customers In Some Airports
Tuesday, October 7, 2008 at 3:02PM I spent the better part of three hours last Friday evening sampling 12 wines from Manfred Krankl's amazing winery Sine Qua Non. If you haven't had the opportunity to drink these fantastic cult wines you need to get you hands on some. When it comes to wine making Manfred is a true genius. We sampled the following:
White Flight 04 Rejuvenator 05 Petition
Pinot Flight 04 Covert Fingers 05 Over and Out
Grenache Flight 04 Into the Dark 05 Atlantis 1A
Syrah Flight 02 Just for the Love of It 03 Papa
04 Poker Face 05 Atlantis 2B
Desert Flight 01 Straw Man
My favorites of the night were the 04 Poker Face, 04 Into the Dark, 05 Over and Out and 01 Straw Man. I am amazed that one man can turn out so much great wine with grapes from various sources. Manfred is true artist when it comes to wine.
