Florence is famous for its history: a centre of medievalEuropean trade and finance and one of the wealthiest cities of the time, it is considered the birthplace of the Renaissance, and has been called "the Athens of the Middle Ages". A turbulent political history includes periods of rule by the powerful Medici family, and numerous religious and republican revolutions. From 1865 to 1871 the city was the capital of the recently established Kingdom of Italy.
The Historic Centre of Florence attracts millions of tourists each year, and Euromonitor International ranked the city as the world's 89th most visited in 2012, with 1.8million visitors. It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1982. The city is noted for its culture, Renaissance art and architecture and monuments. The city also contains numerous museums and art galleries, such as the Uffizi Gallery and the Palazzo Pitti, and still exerts an influence in the fields of art, culture and politics. Due to Florence's artistic and architectural heritage, it has been ranked by Forbes as one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
On October 21, 2014, it was announced that Stephen Frears would next direct a biopic Florence, scripted by Nicholas Martin, about Florence Foster Jenkins, a famous opera singer.Meryl Streep was set to play Jenkins while Hugh Grant was set to play stage actor St. Clair Bayfield, Jenkins' partner and manager.Michael Kuhn and Tracey Seaward would produce the film, which Pathé would finance and handle the sales at American Film Market. In November 2014, the film was sold to international distributors, and Pathé would distribute the film in the UK, France and Switzerland.Simon Helberg was set on March 27, 2015 to play Cosmé McMoon, pianist and the accompanist to Jenkins.Rebecca Ferguson was added to the cast on April 1, 2015 to play Bayfield's suffering wife. On April 13, 2015, Nina Arianda joined the film to play Agnes Stark, a showgirl struggling to step-up in the social life with the help of her husband.
The Florence City Company, formed in 1849, organized the original layout of lots and streets in Florence. It also oversaw construction of the Florence Hotel and wharf. The Florence Iron Works was established in 1857 along the Delaware River by Richard Jones. It continued as a major force in the economy of the community, especially after ownership was transferred to Richard D. Wood in 1867. The 1900 United States Census reported that a good portion of the workforce was dependent on the foundry.
Beyond cars: Clay Mauritson talks hybrids in the winemaking world
Hybrid barrels, that is. Clay Mauritson, winemaker for Mauritson Family Winery, doesn't play favorites when it comes to French and American oak. He and his winemaking team love using a hybrid barrel—in this case, American oak body, French oak heads—which he finds gives an instantaneous integration of both flavor profiles in a harmonious fashion.
Clay appreciates them the two for their differences but doesn't consider one to be superior to the other. "They're different species, different grain widths, and grow in different climates," he says. And while he likes each for their distinct flavor characteristics, he's found they are best together.
He had always used both American and French oak barrels on his Zinfandels but found that blending separate oak lots can have disadvantages early on...

What Happens When Code Becomes the New Law? - Jacob Morgan
The length of time it takes to create or update a new law far exceeds the time it takes to update software or code. Are we going to get to a point where code or software surpasses laws in the real world?
How long does it usually take us to update or create a new law? Typically it takes many months or even years to do so. Now think about how long it takes to update software or code. That happens instantly. Yes, it can take days, weeks or even months to create or test new software and code, but the process of updating is instantaneous.
There is a concept out there that says code is becoming the future law. One book that explores this concept is a book written by Marc Goodman called Future Crimes: Inside the Digital Underground and the Battle for Our Connected World. When sites such as Goo...

Vincent Scully: Architecture and the Power of Language
Paul Goldberger
Friday, February 9, 2018, 1:30 pm
Join architecture critic Paul Goldberger for a lecture on the legendary art historian Vincent Joseph Scully, Jr. (1920–2017), the Sterling Professor Emeritus of the History of Art and Architecture at Yale University. Goldberger pays particular attention to the relationship between architecture and the word in Scully’s work, as well as to Scully’s poetic use of language to forge an emotional connection to architecture. Goldberger is introduced by Deborah Berke, Dean and Professor, Yale School of Architecture.
Paul Goldberger is the former architecture critic for the New York Times and the New Yorker, and he is the author of several books, including Why Architecture Matters and Building Art: The Life and Work of Frank Gehry. As an undergrad...

Clay appreciates them the two for their differences but doesn't consider one to be superior to the other. "They're different species, different grain widths, and grow in different climates," he says. And while he likes each for their distinct flavor characteristics, he's found they are best together.
He had always used both American and French oak barrels on his Zinfandels but found that blending separate oak lots can have disadvantages early on, with some wines showing disjointed characteristics and taking time to come together. The answer was an immediate blend. Clay says his Rockpile AVA Zins that have more tannic structure and benefit from the American oak's sweeter aspects, while being balanced with the finesse and more subtle flavors he gets from the French oak. These days, the Mauritson cellar is what Clay calls "a spice rack" of barrels from all over, featuring the hybrid as the most populous barrel.

The Chevy Avalanche is powered by a 5.3 liter Vortec V-8 engine that makes 320 horsepower and 335 lb-ft. of torque. The transmission is a 6-speed automatic. The Vortec engine is E85 compatible and features Active Fuel Management Technology which is Chevy's way of saying cylinder deactivation. This means the Avalanche can switch off 4-cylinders when cruising on the highway. Fuel economy figures are 15 MPG in the city and 21 MPG on the highway.
There are 3 different trim levels: LS, LT, and LTZ. The LS is the base model which comes standard with 17-inch wheels, Bluetooth, power seats, OnStar, roof rack, and dual climate control. Stepping up to the LT trim offers integrated fog lamps, heated seats, leather, remote start, Ultrasonic Rear Parking Assist, and a great 7-speaker sound system from Bose. Finally, the top of the line LTZ model offers all the bells and whistles but at a premium price. On top of the LT additions the LTZ gets 20-inch polished aluminum rims, Navigation, Rear view camera, SiriusXM, heated and cooled seats, heated steering wheel, and comfortable 12-way power adjustable front bucket seats. All 3 trim level can be purchased with either 2 or 4-wheel drive.
The 2012 Chevrolet Avalanche is all about utility. The cargo box can be locked down to securely store any valuables. The bed can hold materials 4x8 feet in size. There is 50" of space between the two wheel wells and the Avalanche has over 45 cubic feet of cargo volume. The 2012 Chevrolet Avalanche has a 5100 lb. tow capacity.

There are a lot of things that go along with code as the new law. It changes the way we interact with various platforms, it changes the way we think about privacy and security and it changes the way data is stored and shared.
Are we going to get to a point where code or software truly surpasses the rules, laws and regulations in the real world that we are so used to? It’s something to think about.
