Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “So You Think You Know Texas Wines” is designed to simplify your understanding by identifying growing trends, grape descriptions, and future direction of the Texas wine industry. This book concisely profiles each of the state’s leading growing regions and prominent grapes based on the most recent available harvest data from 2019. The edition also includes comparison with the California, Washington and Oregon wine regions. The 2020-2021 edition is ideal for wine collectors, winemakers and anyone who appreciates a Texan grown vintage. The following facts are from hundreds of little known essentials included in the book: 1. Texas harvested 14.2 thousand tons during the 2019 harvest. California harvested 4.28 million tons and Washington 261 thousand tons during the 2018 harvest. Oregon harvested 91.3 thousand tons during 2017. 2. Texas’ wine grape harvest is 15.5% of Oregon’s, 5.4% of Washington’s and .03% of California’s annual harvest. Washington’s harvest is only 6% and Oregon’s 2.1% of California’s overall production. Oregon’s production is 35% of Washington’s. 3. California has 3,670+, Washington 940+, Oregon 725+, and Texas approximately 200+ wineries. California has seventeen, Washington fourteen, while Oregon and Texas have designated five growing regions. 4. Texas has eight designated AVAs (American Viticultural Areas) including Bell Mountain, Escondido Valley, Fredericksburg, Mesilla, Texas Davis Mountains, Texas High Plains, Texas Hill Country and Texoma. 5. Cabernet Sauvignon is Texas’ most popular but only thirtieth highest priced wine grape. It is California’s second most popular and second highest priced red wine grape. It is Washington’s most popular and sixth highest priced and Oregon’s sixth most popular and highest priced wine grape. 6. Tempranillo is Texas’ second most popular and seventh highest priced wine grape averaging $1720 per ton. It is California’s thirteenth and Oregon’s fourth most popular red wine grape. 7. The High Plains and Panhandle growing region is the largest Texas production center harvesting 72.6% of the state’s grapes. 8. During 2019, Texas’ state total production ratio was 71% red wine grapes and 29% white wine grapes. Total Bearable acreage is 73% red wine and 27% white wine grapes. 9. Between 2015 and 2019, production of the Muscat Canelli grape dropped 56.6% in Texas overall and 47.8% in the High Plains and Panhandle growing region. The grape in 2015 was Texas’ largest produced varietal. 10. Based on 2019 non-bearing acreage figures, the six most likely statewide grapes to increase in production are Cabernet Sauvignon, Tempranillo, Blanc du Bois, Black Spanish (Lenoir), Merlot and Mourvèdre. Non-bearing acreage represents planted vineyards whose young grapes have not been included into production statistics. They may also reflect damaged and destroyed vineyards that did not add to the production totals. 11. Production of Mourvèdre jumped over 700% in the High Plains and Panhandle growing region between 2015 and 2019 making it the second largest grape. The grape is now the third largest produced in the state. 12. Blanc du Bois and Black Spanish grapes are the dominant grapes produced in the Southeast Texas and Gulf Coast growing region comprising 80.1% of production. Combined in 2019, they represent 63.3% of statewide production in those grapes.

This book was released on 2021-07-01 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition is designed to simplify your understanding by identifying growing trends, grape descriptions, the histories and future direction of the California, Washington and Oregon wine industry. It concisely profiles each state’s leading growing regions, rainfall statistics and prominent grapes based on the most recent available harvest data. The 2021-2022 edition is ideal for wine collectors, winemakers and anyone who appreciates a world class Pacific Coast grown vintage. The following facts are just ten from hundreds of little known essentials included in the book: 1. California is the top producing state, Washington second and Oregon fourth (behind New York) in American wine grape production. California harvested over 3.54 million tons and Washington 178.5 thousand tons during the 2020 harvest. Oregon harvested 105.6 thousand tons during the 2019 harvest. Washington’s harvest is only 5% and Oregon’s 3% of California’s overall production. Oregon’s production is 59% of Washington’s. 2. Cabernet Sauvignon is California’s second most popular and highest priced red wine grape. It is Washington’s most popular and fifth highest priced and Oregon’s fifth most popular grape. The average Napa Valley grown grape is priced between two and twelve times more than competing states and regions within California. 3. California harvested 3.54 million tons of wine grapes during the 2020 harvest, a 9.2% reduction from the 2019 harvest, the second consecutive year of decreased production. 4. California has 4,610+, Washington 1000+, and Oregon 790+ wineries.. California has seventeen designated growing regions. Washington has fourteen and Oregon five. 5. The wildfires that raged throughout the Napa and Sonoma Valleys reduced the harvest in those regions 37.9% and 35.6%. The devastating fires in early October 2017 that raged through Napa and Sonoma Counties probably had no effect on production figures. Rather, overproduction from the previous two-year’s harvests have created a supply glut of unsold inventory. The difference with the 2020 fires is that they lasted throughout the summer months. The Glass Fire began on September 27th, at the height of the picking season. 6. The smoke taint on the harvested grapes is not reflected in the production statistics. Many of the grapes were harvest but not crushed. Many industry sources have considered the 2020 harvest a lost vintage for Napa and Sonoma as much of the juice will be de-classified or not bottled. Smoke taint may not become evident until after two years of tank storage. 7. Pinot Noir is Oregon’s largest harvested grape accounting for 57.8% of the state’s wine grape production and fifth highest priced. It is California’s sixth most popular. 8. Oregon’s production most closely compares with the Napa Valley growing region of California (99.3 thousand tons in 2020). 9. Chardonnay is California’s largest harvested grape accounting for 33.9% of the white wine grapes and 15.8% of the state’s overall yield. It is Washington’s second largest wine grape, most popular white wine grape. It is Oregon’s third largest produced. 10. California’s wines were considered the equal to European’s elite vintages in 1890. Following the phylloxera pest and Prohibition, the state would not regain their global reputation until the mid-1970s. Washington’s international reputation began during the 1990s and Oregon’s during the 1980s. 11. Real Estate valuation remains the most important financial consideration influencing the value of varietal grapes. Top-tiered Washington vineyards have commanded pricing between $75,000-$80,000 per acre. Large established vineyards have been documented to sell for $25,000-$30,000 and bare unplanted terrain often averages $10,000-$15,000 per acre. In Napa County, secondary vineyard lands begin at $90,000-$165,000 an acre. Prime vineyards range between $225,000-$300,000 and upwards per acre.

The grape is now the fourth largest produced in the state. 12. Viognier dropped from the second largest production grape in the High Plains and Panhandle growing region during 2015 to fourth in the region based on a production decrease of 40.3%. 13. Merlot’s reduced production of 45.5% between 2015 and 2017 in the Hill County region dropped it from the largest produced grape to third place. 14. The Hill Country growing region, the state’s second largest, suffered a 37.1% decline in production between 2015 and 2017. The decline was attributed to a severe rainy season culminating in extensive vine destroying rot and mildew. 15. Blanc du Bois and Black Spanish grapes are the dominant grapes produced in the Southeast Texas and Gulf Coast growing region comprising 74.7% of production. Combined in 2017, they represent 54.8% of statewide production in those grapes.

This book was released on 2023-05-08 with total page 724 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elections often have to be held in emergency situations. The Covid-19 pandemic was one of the most serious emergency situations that the world has seen. The rapid spread of the virus presented a huge humanitarian threat—but also an unparalleled challenge to electoral stakeholders globally seeking to protect electoral integrity during times of uncertainty. This volume identifies how the pandemic affected electoral integrity, what measures were put in place to protect elections and what worked in defending them. It brings together a comprehensive set of 26 country case studies to explore how elections were affected on the ground, what measures were put in place and what worked. These case studies are of elections which took place in the eye of the storm when practitioners and policymakers were operating under uncertainty and without the benefit of hindsight. To learn lessons in a more systematic way, this volume also provides a thematic analysis of electoral integrity during the pandemic using crossnational studies. This provides the big picture for policymakers, practitioners and academics looking back at the crisis. The volume therefore seeks to contribute towards the future development of policy and practice. However, it does so by using academic research methods and concepts which enable greater confidence in the policy lessons, as well as contributing directly to the scholarship on democracy, democratization and elections. The volume includes 11 areas of recommendation based on the evidence collected in this volume to protect electoral integrity in any future emergency situation.

Celadon Books and The New Yorker present the report by the Select Committee to Investigate the Jan 6 Attack on the United States Capitol. On January 6, 2021, insurgents stormed the U.S. Capitol, an act of domestic terror without parallel in American history, designed to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. In a resolution six months later, the House of Representatives called it "one of the darkest days of our democracy," and established a special committee to investigate how and why the attack happened. Celadon Books, in collaboration with The New Yorker, presents the committee's final report, the definitive account of January 6th and what led up to it, based on more than a year of investigation by nine members of Congress and committee staff, with a preface by David Remnick, the editor of The New Yorker and a winner of the Pulitzer Prize, and an epilogue by Congressman Jamie Raskin of Maryland, a member of the committee.

Book excerpt: Progressives have fabricated a new Jesus so different from the real Savior that their faith can hardly be called Christianity. Progressive Christian leaders have abandoned the resurrected Savior of historical Christianity, radically reinterpreting Him as a Jewish mystic or a man of God devoid of divine claims and miracles. In the postmodern era, "remaking Jesus" has become a deadly temptation. The “modern Jesus” of progressives—supposedly friendlier and more accepting than the Savior we know from the Gospels—is gaining popularity and acceptance among self-identified Christians. But they don’t realize that progressive Christianity rejects the biblical revelation of Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh. Hijacking Jesus addresses perennial questions about the nature of Christ and his teaching, testing the historical and theological accuracy of progressive Christians. Their “Jesus” is simply no match for the reliability of the four Gospels, which are the most credible historical sources for Jesus’s life, teachings, miracles, death, and resurrection. Christians can accept no substitute for the witness of the Gospels and the theological doctrines of the church that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You may think you know Texas, but which one? Texas is a land shrouded in myths, and so is its politics. The Real World of Texas Politics pulls back the veil on those myths and reveals the secrets the elites don’t want you to know. It lays bare the dual worlds of the Lone Star State: the one for the elites, and the one for the masses. Inspired by the works of political scientist James Lamare, the authors argue that the privileged few have used their superior resources to dominate all aspects of the Texas political system, from voting and elections to government institutions and policymaking. This dominance by the elites has resulted in a subsistence life and limited future for millions of people living in twenty-first century Texas. The authors are insiders — Locander a political scientist, Shaw a union leader, and Bailey a state representative — with a combined ten-decade involvement in Texas politics and government. But they’re also outsiders, holding views that don’t align with the people in power. Rather than placate, they seek to scrutinize with a skeptical eye the most pressing issues facing one of America’s most important and most populous states. They lay bare the crass influence of money and power and provide a roadmap for what Texas can do to get state government working for average Texans. The Real World of Texas Politics challenges the economic and political status quo. It peels back the myths to expose how the state’s leaders, both Democrats and Republicans, have forsaken the masses to cater to the rich and powerful. Reversing this trend takes knowledge, and this book offers a hefty dose by taking a hard look at how politics and power really work in the Lone Star State.
