Rev. Steve Schibsted preaches, “The Trivialization of God” from the sermon series “David: Everyday Spirituality” ., Piedmont Community Church, Piedmont, California

Full Text of Readings Eighteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time Lectionary: 112 The Saint of the day is Saint Eusebius of Vercelli Saint Eusebius of Vercelli's Story Someone has said that if there had been no Arian heresy denying Christ's divinity, it would be very difficult to write the lives of many early saints. Saint Eusebius is another of the defenders of the Church during one of its most trying periods. Born on the isle of Sardinia, he became a member of the Roman clergy, and is the first recorded bishop of Vercelli in Piedmont in northwest Italy. Eusebius was also the first to link the monastic life with that of the clergy, establishing a community of his diocesan clergy on the principle that the best way to sanctify his people was to have them see a clergy formed in solid virtue and living in community. Saint Eusebius was sent by Pope Liberius to persuade the emperor to call a council to settle Catholic-Arian troubles. When it was called at Milan, Eusebius went reluctantly, sensing that the Arian block would have its way, although the Catholics were more numerous. He refused to go along with the condemnation of Saint Athanasius; instead, he laid the Nicene Creed on the table and insisted that all sign it before taking up any other matter. The emperor put pressure on him, but Saint Eusebius insisted on Athanasius' innocence and reminded the emperor that secular force should not be used to influence Church decisions. At first the emperor threatened to kill him, but later sent him into exile in Palestine. There the Arians dragged him through the streets and shut him up in a little room, releasing him only after his four-day hunger strike. They resumed their harassment shortly after. His exile continued in Asia Minor and Egypt, until the new emperor permitted him to be welcomed back to his see in Vercelli. Eusebius attended the Council of Alexandria with Athanasius and approved the leniency shown to bishops who had wavered. He also worked with Saint Hilary of Poitiers against the Arians. Saint Eusebius died peacefully in his own diocese at what was then considered an advanced age. Reflection Catholics in the U.S. have sometimes felt penalized by an unwarranted interpretation of the principle of separation of Church and state, especially in the matter of Catholic schools. Be that as it may, the Church is happily free today from the tremendous pressure put on it after it became an “established” Church under Constantine. We are happily rid of such things as a pope asking an emperor to call a Church council, Pope John I being sent by the emperor to negotiate in the East, or the pressure of kings on papal elections. The Church cannot be a prophet if it's in someone's pocket.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

Although the best-known wines of Piemonte are in the south — in Alba, Roero, Cuneo, and Asti – there is a treasure trove of excellent Nebbiolo and Nebbiolo blends northeast of the famed Barolo and Barbaresco in the Langhe. These are small DOCGs and DOCs in the foothills of the Italian Alps that are collectively called Alto Piemonte  – "higher (or upper) Piemonte."   Greatly reduced in status and size, Alto Piemonte today is a collection of small appellations across the foothills of the Alps, in and around the Sesia River and a swath of forests. The region sits in the shadow of Monte Rosa, which at 4,634 meters/15200 ft is the second-highest peak in the Alps.   Map: Alto Piemonte. Credit: Skurnik Wines   Because of the cooling breezes and lower nighttime temperatures, Alto Piemonte is cooler than the Langhe and Roero. That means that some Nebbiolo producers are starting to look northeast for new frontiers for growing grapes. Changes are afoot, which make this region worth knowing about now, whereas before it was more of a novelty!

Jordan Overbee, PE, CEO of Piedmont Electric Company, joins us to talk about leading a cooperative through a full technology and reliability overhaul. Jordan breaks down why blind cycle trimming wasn't cutting it, how a simple member-reporting program in Piedmont's magazine surfaced over 100 danger trees in under 30 days (99% confirmed legitimate), and how the co-op is rethinking its vegetation management plan around targeted, data-driven cuts. He also digs into Piedmont's technology roadmap: SCADA upgrades, the LiDAR vs. satellite imagery debate, AI-assisted outage prediction, and why bringing linemen into the decision-making process made the rollout actually stick.

What if that expensive bottle of wine you've just bought isn't what you think it is? In this episode of Eat Sleep Wine Repeat, Janina explores the fascinating - and often shocking - world of counterfeit wine and wine fraud with Maureen Downey, one of the world's leading authorities on wine authentication, provenance and fraud. From fake bottles of Burgundy and First Growth Bordeaux to the infamous Rudy Kurniawan wine fraud scandal, Maureen reveals how counterfeit wine enters the market, which wines are most commonly faked, and how experts determine whether a bottle is genuine. You'll discover how wine experts authenticate suspicious bottles using forensic techniques including the examination of labels, paper, glass, UV light, invisible inks and microscopic analysis. We also explore why wine provenance - the documented history of a bottle's ownership, storage and journey through the market - is so important when buying fine wine. Maureen explains how organised crime has become involved in wine fraud, why even experienced collectors can be deceived, and how technology, blockchain and bottle registration could help protect the wine trade in the future. She also shares practical advice on how to buy fine wine with greater confidence and reduce the risk of purchasing a counterfeit bottle. Along the way, Maureen shares the wines and producers that inspire her today, including Burgundy, Champagne and Jura Chardonnay, reveals why the Côte Chalonnaise is one of the world's most underrated wine regions, and explains why every serious wine lover should experience the food and wine of Piedmont at least once. Whether you're a fine wine collector, an enthusiastic wine lover, planning a wine trip, or simply curious about how to tell if a bottle of wine is authentic, this episode may completely change the way you look at every bottle you buy. To know more, go to winefraud.com Maureen's educational platform dedicated to wine fraud, authentication and provenance.  Shownotes 03:09 – How Maureen discovered wine — why she deliberately began studying wine at just 18 years old and the experiences that sparked a lifelong passion for wine. 05:00 – From hospitality to fine wine — how working in some of New York's greatest restaurants shaped Maureen's early wine career before an unexpected move into wine auctions. 06:44 – Why wine auctions are the ultimate classroom — how working with thousands of bottles from every producer, region and vintage became the ultimate way to learn about wine. 09:40 – Discovering counterfeit wine — the moment Maureen realised wine fraud was far more widespread than anyone in the industry openly discussed. 14:24 – How common is counterfeit wine? — why fake wines exist at every price point, from supermarket shelves to the world's most valuable fine wines. 16:28 – Which wines are most commonly faked? — exploring the different types of wine fraud, from commercial brands to First Growth Bordeaux, Burgundy and rare collectors' bottles. 21:50 – Fighting wine theft — how provenance, blockchain technology and bottle registration could help protect collectors and reduce wine crime. 28:43 – How experts authenticate wine — the forensic techniques used to identify counterfeit bottles, from paper, labels and glass to UV light, invisible inks and microscopic analysis. 32:05 – Bottles that almost fooled the experts — why authentication is a collaborative process and how experienced specialists work together to verify authenticity. 34:14 – The most sophisticated counterfeit wines — how modern counterfeiters have become increasingly advanced and why producers continue adapting their anti-fraud measures. 35:11 – The funniest counterfeit attempt — one of the most unbelievable fake wine cases Maureen has ever encountered and why it was impossible to take seriously. 36:32 – The truth about Rudy Kurniawan — separating myth from reality behind the world's most infamous wine fraudster and the network that supported him. 40:59 – Lessons from investigating wine fraud — what years spent exposing counterfeit wines taught Maureen about trust, psychology and human nature. 43:19 – Buying wine with confidence — practical advice on provenance, trusted merchants and why Maureen founded Chai Consulting to help collectors and consumers buy fine wine with confidence. 47:03 – The wines inspiring Maureen today — why Burgundy, Champagne and Jura Chardonnay remain favourites, plus standout producers including Krug, Domaine Hubert Lamy, Domaine J.F. Mugnier, and Argentina's Bodega Chacra. 49:22 – The world's most underrated wine region — why the Côte Chalonnaise deserves far more attention from wine lovers. 50:50 – A wine experience every enthusiast should have — why eating and drinking in Piedmont belongs on every serious wine lover's bucket list.

Rev. Don Ashburn preaches, “Into the Wilderness” from the sermon series “David: Everyday Spirituality” ., Piedmont Community Church, Piedmont, California

Nebbiolo is one of the oldest and finest red grapes of Italy. Native to Piemonte (Piedmont) in the northwest of the country, it was first mentioned and described by (my boyfriend) Pliny the Elder in the first century AD. After a time of being known exclusively on its home turf, starting in the 1700s, Nebbiolo began to gain status as a wine of Piemontese royalty. When a dry version was made in the mid-1800s, the wine's place as a great of the wine world was cemented. Nebbiolo sparkles in the epic wines of Barolo and Barbaresco, along with other neighboring areas. But it's not a good traveler. Others have tried to grow it and make wine from it, but the magic of Nebbiolo is often elusive. So it remains small. With less than 15,000 acres/ 6,070 ha of Nebbiolo planted globally, this is a rare grape and we are lucky to have access to it! Photo: Nebbiolo grape in the Langhe. Source: https://www.langhevini.it/en/i-vitigni-del-territorio/nebbiolo/   In this show, as in all grape miniseries, I talk about the history of the grape, how it behaves in the vineyard and winery, there terroir that best suits it, and the places it is grown. I also talk about climate change and what that will mean for Nebbiolo in the future (I'm hopeful. There are lots of options in Barolo and Barbaresco, so don't get all gloom and doom!).   If you've never had a Nebbiolo from Piedmont, please do yourself a favor and get one. It's unlike anything else in this world – pure magic in a glass when it's from a good producer.   Full show notes and all back episodes are on Patreon. Join the community today! www.patreon.com/winefornormalpeople _______________________________________________________________ CHECK OUT MY NEW SPONSOR!!!  This show is brought to you by my NEW exclusive sponsor, Grapes the Wine Company – an actual brick and mortar store located in White Plains, New York that has been recognized by the Wall Street Journal as one of the most influential wine retailers in America.

When we think about California wine, names like Napa Valley, Mondavi, and the famous 1976 Judgment of Paris often come to mind. Yet behind the success of California's wine industry are countless immigrant families whose stories are every bit as remarkable, even if they've been largely forgotten. One such story is that of Gemello Winery, an Italian American winery founded by immigrants from Piedmont who arrived in California with little more than determination, a knowledge of viticulture, and a willingness to work incredibly hard.  In my recent conversation with author Kevin Ferguson, I discovered that his forthcoming book, Rain on the Monte Bello Ridge, is about much more than a family business. It's a fascinating story of immigration, innovation, perseverance, and five generations of one Italian American family whose legacy continues to inspire today.

It appears on some wine labels, winemakers speak lovingly about them, and there are organizations focused on them. “Old Vines” is a loosely defined term that is often associated with quality in the wine industry. Seghesio, a historic Californian winery, has a strong focus on old vines with its focus on Zinfandel and Italian varietals. Andy Robinson, Seghesio's winemaker, lays out the economics of growing and selling old vine wines. Detailed Show Notes: Andy's background: grew up in the Finger Lakes (NY), studied Chemistry, worked at Charles KrugSeghesio overviewFounded 1895 by Piedmont immigrant Eduardo SeghesioAlexander Valley & Russian River (Sonoma)~120k cases / year; 160 acres plantedMostly Zinfandel (oldest 1895 at Home Ranch) and Italian varieties (Sangiovese, oldest from 1910)Defines old vines as 50+ years vs Old Vine Conference defines as 35+ years, conventional vineyards normally have 20-25 year lifespanMust be an excellent vine (both in yield and quality) to become an old vineBenefits of old vinesOften head trained, umbrella shape gives natural shading, don't need trellis supports, requires less maintenance late in the season; overall about the same cost as trellised (head trained harder to mechanize)More flavor compounds (a Spanish company researched this)More textural and complex flavorsCosts of old vinesExpect lower yields (sets less fruit)Big cuts from pruning can have bigger impact on vinesNeed to have a focus for old vines to be successful, which is why there are many single vineyard old vines; consistent ownership important for thisPeople are often willing to pay more for old vine wines, wine needs to be goodFor deciding when to replant old vines: wines not fantastic anymore, yields drop

Forteto della Luja is undoubtedly one of the winemaking gems of Piedmont and Italy. Its legendary Loazzolo Piasa Rischei - a mesmerizing wine of astonishing class and elegance - tells a fascinating story that led to the creation of Italy's smallest denomination, an achievement also intertwined with the story of the great Luigi Veronelli, one of the most famous supporters of this wine and of municipal denominations. Loazzolo Piasa Rischei offers the thrill of Moscato Bianco, in an infinite symphony of rare and precious aromas that have earned DiWineTaste Five Diamonds and the title of best wine of the month.

Looking for destinations in Europe that deserve more love?In this episode, I'm sharing 12 places across Europe that I think deserve a spot on more travelers' wish lists.These aren't unknown destinations. Because, let's face it, there are very few truly undiscovered places. Instead I'd describe them as places that often get overshadowed by more famous neighbors.From wild Irish coastlines and peaceful English countryside to mountain landscapes in Slovenia, Scotland, Austria, and Italy, these destinations offer a variety of experiences. Along the way, you'll find charming villages, fascinating history, outstanding food and wine, and plenty of opportunities to spend time outdoors. All are places I believe deserve more attention from curious travelers.Some are easy additions to a European itinerary, while others require a bit more patience and a sense of adventure. And of course, all of them are places I've personally visited and would (and have) happily return to.Join me as I share why places like the Yorkshire Dales, Lake Bohinj, the Ardnamurchan Peninsula, Piedmont, the Hochkönig region, and the Mani Peninsula deserve more attention from travelers looking to venture beyond Europe's usual stops.Whether you're actively planning a trip or simply dreaming about future travels, I hope this episode inspires you to discover a few destinations in Europe that deserve more love.Want to chat more about these destinations or this topic?Email me at Lynne@WanderYourWay.com.In this episode:2:45: Intro6:18: County Donegal, Ireland10:30: Normandy, France14:28: Yorkshire Dales, England19:19: Lake Bohinj, Slovenia23:09: Ardnamurchan, Scotland30:17: Dumfries & Galloway, Scotland37:22: Scottish Borders41:08: Isle of Mull, Scotland46:37: Piedmont, Italy51:20: Val di Fassa, Italy54:28: Hochkönig region, Austria58:05: Mani Peninsula, Greece1:03:04: Recap1:03:54: Wrapping it upImportant links:County Donegal • IrelandExploring Beautiful Normandy, France: Going Beyond the D-Day BeachesAmazing Things To Do in the Yorkshire Dales EnglandLake Bohinj • SloveniaDumfries & Galloway • ScotlandExploring the Scottish BordersIsle of Mull • ScotlandPiedmont • Italy6 Reasons to Visit the Beautiful Val di Fassa ItalyDiscovering the Stunning and Beautiful Hochkönig Region of AustriaStoupa • GreeceWander Your WayWander Your Way AdventuresWander Your Way ResourcesNord VPN ★ Support this podcast ★

Italy's vineyards stretch from Alpine peaks to volcanic islands, from rolling Tuscan hills to sun-drenched coastlines. Each glass of Italian wine carries not only the flavor of its land but also the imprint of centuries of tradition, community and culture. Join us for an exploration of that flavor and soul. Andrea Lonardi, one of Italy's most respected winemakers and agronomists, and a rare Master of Wine, teamed up with acclaimed wine journalist Jessica Dupuy to create Italianity, a book that traces the cultural thread that united Italy's native grapes and the people who cultivate them. From the misty hills of Piedmont and the Alpine slopes of Alto Adige to the volcanic soils of Sicily and the olive groves of Tuscany, Lonardi and Dupuy came face-to-face with the landscapes, families, and traditions that make Italian wine unlike anything else on earth. Join us to hear their tales of unforgettable encounters, cultural reflection, and stories of the Italian wine world, and learn why they say Italian wine is more than a beverage: it is history and heritage, innovation and resilience, the rhythm of the seasons, the joy of the table, and a way of seeing beauty in the everyday Learn more about your ad choices.

Want to visit Italy… but want to perhaps see more than the typical places? On Chris's first trip to Italy for 7 days, we explored lovely spots like Milan, Alba and Piedmont, Bologna, and then Rome (of course!).

Garrett Corwin started Piedmont Microgreens out of his garage in Durham, North Carolina, and after six years he's scaled the business to 350-400 trays a week. In addition to the farmers market, Piedmont sells to more than 50 restaurants, grocery stores and wholesalers, including FreshPoint and Sysco with just a two-person team. As the business expanded, Garrett realized the limitations of spreadsheets for crop planning, so he enlisted the help of his brother Spencer to help build a better way to keep track of their crops and customers.  Spencer left a software engineering role at Meta to help build Microgreen Manager, and now it's how they plan their crops and is available to other farmers. In this interview we discuss how Garrett hacked his house to provide a low-cost platform for the business, how to get in with wholesalers, and what equipment he would buy if he were starting over. We talk about the functions of Microgreen Manager that make it more robust than spreadsheets, how Piedmont Microgreens has kept its workforce the same size even as they scaled production, how they grow everything to order and lots more in this week's Growing for Market Podcast interview!

  About this episode:  In 1969 - 104 years after the fact - Canadian Robbie Robertson wrote a song for his group The Band. It was a first-person narrative relating economic and social distress for a poor white Southerner during the last year of the American Civil War. Robertson's song was voiced by the band's lone American, drummer and native Arkansan Levon Helm whose haunting rendition opened with,   “Virgil Kane is the name And I served on the Danville train 'Till Stoneman's cavalry came And tore up the tracks again In the winter of '65 We were hungry, just barely alive By May the 10th, Richmond had fell It's a time I remember, oh so well The night they drove old Dixie down…”   This is the story of that Federal incursion.  This is the story of Stoneman's Raid.      ----more---- Some Characters Mentioned In This Episode: George Stoneman Joseph Hooker Alvan Cullem Gillem William J.

While Southern Italy is the land of sun-drenched tomatoes and olive oil, Northern Italy offers a completely different culinary landscape. Characterized by the dramatic peaks of the Dolomites, the mist of the Po Valley, and the sophisticated canals of Venice, the North is a region of rich history and hearty, “stick-to-your-bones” fare.In this final installment of our Italian culinary tour, we head to the cooler climates of regions like Piedmont, Lombardy, and Veneto. We explore how the landscape—shaped by French, Germanic, and Celtic influences—created a cuisine centered around butter, cream, and grains like rice and corn.But don't let the prevalence of animal products fool you; Northern Italy is also the birthplace of some of the world's most beloved plant-based staples. From the “king of rice” to the traditional art of handmade gnocchi and the vibrant pesto of Liguria, we uncover the vegan gems hidden within this elegant, mountainous terrain.In this episode you will learn:* The North-South Divide: Why the cooler climate and flat pasturelands led to a culture of butter and cream, while the south remained the land of olive oil.* Risotto Perfection: The secrets of risotto alla Milanese and why carnaroli rice is considered the “caviar” of grains.* The History of Polenta and Gnocchi: How these humble cucina povera (peasant food) dishes evolved from ancient Roman porridges and New World imports into modern delicacies.* Pesto and Focaccia: A deep dive into Liguria's most famous exports and why a mortar and pestle is still the superior way to handle basil.* The Geography of Bread: The origins of ciabatta (the “slipper” bread) and the strict Italian rules about when—and when not—to eat bread with your meal.* Regional Luxuries: The hunt for the elusive white truffle of Piedmont and the centuries-old tradition of producing authentic Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale in Modena.* Holiday Traditions: The Catholic roots of “Carnevale” and the delicious fried treats like crostoli and zeppole that mark the season.* A Toast to the North: A guide to regional wines, from the sparkling reds of Lambrusco to the “foggy” Nebbiolo grapes of Barolo and Barbaresco.
