Lancer Evolution chosen as Women’s World Car of the Year contender

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution is a one of a kind high performance sports sedan that represents the ultimate in road licensed Mitsubishi vehicles. The Evolution showcases several outstanding technologies, including: a 291 hp, 2.0 litre DOHC, turbocharged-intercooled engine; the brilliant 6-speed Twin Clutch Sportronic® Shift Transmission (TC-SST) an automated manual transmission capable of executing lightning quick gear changes with no drop off in engine power; Super All-Wheel Control (S-AWC), a vehicle dynamic control network that provides an extraordinary level of control at individual wheels. An award winner in its own right, Super All-Wheel Control was recently named best new technology by the Automotive Journalists Association of Canada (AJAC).




This landmark award was initiated by Sandy Myhre, a journalist from Auckland, New Zealand. It brings together ten top women automotive journalists from North America, India, South Africa, the U.K., Australia and Europe. These well respected women will vote on vehicles that are new to the market between September 2008 and September 2009, and on sale in at least ten countries. The judges from Canada are Regina Chan, founder and Editorial Director of AutoNerve Magazine, and Jil McIntosh, reviewer for The Toronto Star (Wheels Section) and Assistant Editor of CanadianDriver.com.

2006 Copain Roussanne

2006 Copain Roussanne


James Berry Vineyard, Paso Robles




Very small production winery in Paso dedicated to making organic single vineyard wines that are true to the varietal characteristics.




Aromas: lemon cream pie, white flowers, orange dreamsicle, fennel, beeswax


Body: Medium


Color: Straw Yellow




From their website: Bees wax, lemon curd and fennel pollen aromas are pure and full on the nose. Crisp acidity buttresses the waxy roussanne character and keeps the zesty pear and lychee flavors lively on the palate. A beautifully seamless finish is long and pure with long lingering honeycomb like flavors.

IZZY AND GEORGE GONE FROM GREY’S?

It was a big night on TV for finales and a very emotional night on Grey's Anatomy. We had already heard that Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight were preparing to leave and with the way last night's episode ended, their characters Izzy Stevens and George O'Malley appeared to be gone. In a stunning climax to the episode, Izzy flatlined after a risky surgery to remove a brain tumor and George appeared set to meet his maker after getting hit by a bus. There was one thing missing: Nobody called out "time of death".
