| the bluffer wine: The Wine Pioneers Anton Massel, 2008 At first there were the horticulturists and wine growers, then came the wine makers, the coopers, and the cellar masters. Inevitably there were wine shippers and wine merchants. Chemists and biologists added their skills in the past two centuries, and only very recently came the oenologists and the professional wine tasters. Wine writers play an important role in today's wine trade, and there were always wine connoisseurs and wine snobs. From 5000BC to the modern day, this book provides a chronological history of the wine pioneers through the ages. |

| the bluffer wine: The Romantic Economist William Nicolson, 2014-01-07 A wise and humorous memoir about a young economist trying to apply the rules of the market to his own floundering love life. A wise and humorous memoir about a young economist trying to apply the rules of the market to his own floundering dating life. I know that this sounds like a bit of a clich , but really, it's not you... The woman who said this to William Nicolson was funny, talented and unbearably beautiful. His mother said he ought to marry that girl. And he lost her in a personal best time of six weeks. It was when he found himself being dumped like this yet again that he decided something had to be done. William is an economist, which means he's good at reducing an infinitely complex world into a set of clear, rational principles about the way people and markets behave. Unfortunately, he has never been able to replicate this in the world of romance. Girls confuse him; they're the very definition of infinite complexity. In this book, he sets out to apply the rules of economics to his shaky love life. For a time, everything seems to be clearer. Want to play hard to get? Reduce your supply. Want a girlfriend? Find an undervalued asset. Why are all the good ones taken? That'll be the Efficient Market Hypothesis. But things don't work out quite as he'd hoped, and he's more isolated than ever. Can he find the perfect economic theory to rescue him from a future of lonely nights, or is the dating game too intricate to be won by logical, rational thinking? |

| the bluffer wine: Science, Vine and Wine in Modern France Harry W. Paul, 2002-07-18 Science, Vine and Wine in Modern France examines the role of science in the civilization of wine in modern France. Viticulture, the science of the vine itself, and oenology, the science of winemaking, are its subjects. Together they can boast of at least two major triumphs: the creation of the post-phylloxera vines that repopulated late-nineteenth-century vineyards devastated by the disease; and the understanding of the complex structure of wine that eventually resulted in the development of the widespread wine models of Bordeaux, Burgundy, and Champagne. This is the first analysis of the scientific battle over the best way to save the French vineyards and the first account of the growth of oenological science in France since Chaptal and Pasteur. |

Sample Book Insights: #1 The same kinds of memory lapses that annoy and irritate you now annoyed and irritated me when I was younger. But when I applied my memory systems, techniques, methods, and tricks, my memory was a thousand times better than yours. #2 The importance of exercising your mind cannot be understated. It is essential to your mental health and abilities, and it is never too late to start. #3 I have received many testimonials from people who have used my memory techniques. One man, Bob Norland, had a stroke at age 75, and his doctors told him he would lose his memory. Now his memory is better than it ever was before. #4 We are all constantly reminded of different things, people, places, attitudes, ideas, actions, happenings, conversations, and facts. We are constantly reminded of things without us even thinking about it. |

| the bluffer wine: Out & Proud: Gay Classics Collection Oscar Wilde, Bayard Taylor, Virginia Woolf, Lucas Malet, Robert Hichens, Henry Blake Fuller, Radclyffe Hall, Jack Saul, Sheridan Le Fanu, Theodore Winthrop, Harlan Cozad McIntosh, 2023-12-21 Out & Proud: Gay Classics Collection presents a seminal anthology that traverses the nuanced landscape of queer identity through a historical lens. With an array of literary styles spanning from the Victorian sardonic wit of Oscar Wilde to the modernist streams of consciousness of Virginia Woolf, this collection not only highlights the diversity within the LGBTQ+ literary canon but also underscores the evolving nature of queerness in literature. The anthology stands out for its ability to weave together a tapestry of voices that, while distinct, share a common pursuit of authenticity and self-expression. The works selected are emblematic of the courage and complexity inherent in the queer experience, compelling readers to reflect on the societal constructs of gender and sexuality. The contributing authors, each a luminary in their own right, bring to the collection an array of backgrounds that span continents, centuries, and cultures, united by their contributions to queer literature. From the Gothic allure of Sheridan Le Fanu to the raw realism of Radclyffe Hall, these writers collectively chart the historical and sociopolitical landscapes that shaped their work. Their personal narratives of struggle and triumph resonate with the larger narrative of LGBTQ+ liberation and acceptance, offering readers a rich contextual framework within which these stories were penned. Out & Proud: Gay Classics Collection is an indispensable addition to the literary world, inviting readers to explore the depths of queer literature through a panoramic lens. This anthology not only serves as a testament to the resilience and diversity of the LGBTQ+ community but also as a scholarly resource that illuminates the ever-evolving discourse on sexuality and identity. Through its curated selection of narratives, the collection provides an unparalleled opportunity to engage with the seminal works that have shaped the queer literary tradition, making it a must-read for both aficionados and newcomers to the genre. |
| the bluffer wine: Cecil Dreeme Theodore Winthrop, 2023-11-20 Robert Byng has recently returned from his Grand Tour of Europe to settle in New York City. An old friend lends Byng his rooms at Chrysalis College (an equivalent of real-life New York University, perhaps also partially modelled on the Tenth Street Studio Building). It is there that Byng meets his mysterious and reclusive neighbor Cecil Dreeme, and the two strike up a romantic friendship. However, Byng is also tempted by the villainous Densdeth, who seems to want the protagonist to fall into a life of unspecified sin and debauchery. Published posthumously by the author's friend George William Curtis in 1861, Cecil Dreeme has been called one of the queerest American novels of the nineteenth century by scholar Peter Coviello, and it addresses themes of gender and sexuality. |

| the bluffer wine: Spinglish Henry Beard, Christopher Cerf, 2015-06-02 Spinglish—the devious dialect of English used by professional spin doctors—is all around us. And the fact is, until you’ve mastered it, politicians and corporations (not to mention your colleagues and friends) will continue putting things over on you, and generally getting the better of you, every minute of every day—without your even knowing it. However, once you perfect the art of terminological inexactitude, you’ll be the one manipulating and one-upping everyone else! And here’s the beauty part: Henry Beard and Christopher Cerf, authors of the New York Times semi-bestseller The Official Politically Correct Dictionary and Handbook, have compiled this handy yet astonishingly comprehensive lexicon and translation guide—a fictionary, if you will—to help you do just that. If you want to succeed in business (or politics, sports, the arts, or life in general) without really lying, this is the book for you! (Your results may vary.) Spinglish includes these nifty bits of spurious verbiage and over a thousand more: aesthetic procedure – face-lift dairy nutrients – cow manure enhanced interrogation techniques – torture “For your convenience.” – “For our convenience.” hands-on mentoring – sexual relations with a junior employee incomplete success – failure rightsizing – firing people zero-tasking – doing nothing With each and every entry sourced from some of the greatest real-life language benders in the world today, you’re virtually guaranteed to have the perfectly chosen tried-and-untrue term right at the tip of your forked tongue. Wish you could nimbly sidestep a question without batting an eye? Not sure how to apologize while also . . . not apologizing? Spinglish has you covered. Simply consult this convenient, shoot-from-the-lip glossary, and before you know it, you’ll be telling it like it isn’t, it wasn’t, and it couldn’t ever have been. |

| the bluffer wine: The Fatal Tree Jake Arnott, 2017-02-23 'A work of dazzling imagination and linguistic inventiveness' Observer Newgate Gaol, 1726. An anonymous writer sets down the words of Edgworth Bess as she confides the adventures and misfortunes that led her all too soon to the judgement of London: Cruelly deceived, Bess is cast out onto the streets of the wicked city - and by nightfall her ruin is already certain. What matters now is her survival of it. In that dangerous underworld known in thieves' cant as Romeville, she will learn new tricks and trades. And all begins with her fateful meeting, that very first night, with the corrupt thief-taker general Jonathan Wild. But it is the infamous gaol-breaker, Jack Sheppard, who will lay Romeville at her feet . . . Drawing on the true story that mesmerised eighteenth-century society, the acclaimed author of The Long Firm delivers a tour de force: a riveting, artful tale of crime and rough justice, love and betrayal. Rich in the street slang of the era, it vividly conjures up a murky world of illicit dens and molly-houses; a world where life was lived on the edge, in the shadow of that fatal tree - the gallows. |

| the bluffer wine: The Inner Level Richard G. Wilkinson, Kate Pickett, 2019 Why are people more relaxed and at ease with each other in some countries than others? Why do we worry so much about what others think of us and often feel social life is a stressful performance? Why is mental illness three times as common in the USA as in Germany? Why is the American dream more of a reality in Denmark than the USA? What makes child well-being so much worse in some countries than others? As The Inner Level demonstrates, the answer to all these is inequality. Wilkinson and Pickett describe how these responses to hierarchies evolved, and why the impacts of inequality on us are so severe. In doing so, they challenge the conception that humans are inescapably competitive and self-interested. They undermine, too, the idea that inequality is the product of natural differences in individual ability. This book draws together many of the most urgent problems facing societies today, but it is not just an index of our ills. It demonstrates that societies based on fundamental equalities, sharing and reciprocity generate much higher levels of well-being, and lays out the path towards them-- |

| the bluffer wine: The Wine Snob's Dictionary David Kamp, David Lynch, 2008-10-14 A nicely structured, lightly acidic addition to the handy Snob’s Dictionary series, decoding the baffling world of winespeak from A to Z. Wine Snob. The very phrase seems redundant, doesn't it? When faced with this snobbiest of snobberies, the civilian wine enthusiast needs the help of savvy translators like David Kamp and David Lynch. Their Wine Snob’s Dictionary delivers witty explication of both old-school oeno-obsessions (What's claret? Who's Michael Broadbent?) and such new-wave terms as malolactic fermentation and fruit bomb. Among the other things Kamp and Lynch demystify: Finish: the Snob code-term for aftertaste. (Robert Parker includes the stopwatch-measured length of a wine's finish in his ratings.) Meritage: an American wine classification that rhymes with heritage, and should NEVER be pronounced meri-TAHJ. Terroir: that elusive quality of vineyard soil that has sommeliers talking of gunflint, leather, and candied fruits Featuring ripe, luscious, full-bodied illustrations by Snob's Dictionary stalwart Ross MacDonald, The Wine Snob’s Dictionary is as heady and sparkling as a vintage Taittinger, only much less expensive... and much more giggle-inducing.
