San Luis Obispo County wine	75,668,022	History	Despite conflicting accounts, the first recorded planting of a vineyard was probably by the Spanish Jesuit Missionary Eusebio Francisco Kino at Misión San Bruno in Baja California in 1683 implanting the first variety named "Misionéro." In 1779, Franciscan missionaries under the direction of the Spanish Father Junípero Serra planted California's first vineyard at Mission San Juan Capistrano. The mission’s historical journals document that between May 1779 and 1781, the padres supervised six ‘campesinos’ from Baja California in planting 2,000 grapevines at the mission. These grapevines, Vitis vinifera, were originally transported by ship from Spain and later became known in the New World as Mission Grapes. The vines arrived in Mexico around the year 1540 and cuttings were planted throughout Mexico and spread north with Spanish explorers in the 1620s. Cuttings were later planted in 1769 at the site of the first mission founded in San Diego and dominated California wine production until about 1880.
San Luis Obispo County wine	75,668,022	History	The first winery in Alta California was built at San Juan Capistrano in 1783; both red and white wines (sweet and dry), brandy, and a port-like wine called Angelica were all produced from the Mission grape. Father Serra founded eight other California missions, hence, he has been called the "Father of California Wine." The county’s historic landmark, "Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa" was founded September 1, 1772 by Father Serra in the current town of San Luis Obispo. The mission was named after Saint Louis of Anjou, the bishop of Toulouse, the namesake of the region and town. Father Serra sent an expedition down south from the capital of Alta California, Monterey, to build the San Luis Obispo mission. A cross was erected near San Luis Obispo Creek and Serra celebrated the first mass. Following the mass, Father Junípero Serra left the construction responsibilities to Father Jose Cavaller. The California Missions were developed over three decades that included structure construction, crops, livestock, vineyards, and wineries. Each site gradually came to its peak during the 1830s and 1840s. In the 1830s the Franciscans produced as much as 50,000 gallons of wine a year at the San Gabriel Mission, the fourth of 21 missions founded in California in 1771. The San Gabriel Mission, built from 1791 to 1805 using brick, mortar, and cut stone, is the oldest structure of its kind south of Monterey. The Franciscans planted the first working vineyard in California. A large “mother vine” that was planted in 1861 has grown to notable size and length. It is the same variety as the original vines brought from Spain and still produces fruit. However, there are no records of a vineyard or winemaking in San Luis Obispo prior to 1820s when over one hundred barrels of wine a year are recorded for Mission San Luis Obispo. Its vineyard became the mission system’s largest after the Mission San Gabriel.
San Luis Obispo County wine	75,668,022	History	The oldest recorded residence in San Luis Obispo County is the Dana Adobe in Nipomo which was originally built on a Mexican land grant of nearly 38,000 acres (15,000 ha) and presented in 1837 to William Goodwin Dana, originally from Boston, Massachusetts, who named it Rancho Nipomo. Captain Dana, married Maria Josefa Carrillo in 1829, the daughter of the original Governor of Alta California, Carlos Antonio Carrillo. By the 1840s, Dana established a large cattle ranch, built his home, and eventually raised 21 children. The ranch also had planted crops and vineyards. From the 1860s to the 1890s, Pierre Hypolite Dallidet was renown as the first commercial winemaker and also became the first commercial distiller in San Luis Obispo County. His legend is one of adventure, service to his country, viticulture, and travels abroad, from his village in southwestern France to Tahiti to Hangtown and finally to San Luis Obispo. He pioneered commercial wine and brandy making, sourcing fruit from his own vineyards and orchards. He was famous for assisting the French government in saving the premium French grape varietals decimated by the Phylloxera epidemic that destroyed historic French vineyards in the 1870s.
San Luis Obispo County wine	75,668,022	Terroir	San Luis Obispo county is hemmed-in close to the Pacific coastline by the Santa Lucia Range while over the hills lies the southern end of the Central Valley, which connects this area with northern California. At the county’s northern border, its largest viticultural area, Paso Robles, encompasses 669,253 acres (1,046 sq mi) defined by rolling hills and valleys with an average elevation between 600 and 1,000 feet (183–305 m). The boundaries of the Paso Robles area are characterized by township and range lines, the county line, and straight lines from points of reference. These boundary descriptions are the most practical approximation of the ridge lines that enclose the viticultural area. The soils of the area are generally alluvial and terrace deposits, usually fertile and well-drained. The area is bounded on the west and south by the Santa Lucia mountain range whose crest averages between 2,300 and 2,850 feet (701–869 m). The Cholame Hills to the east crest at about the 3,000 feet (914 m) elevation. The Salinas River has its headwaters at Santa Margarita Lake just south of the boundary and flows northward through the area into the Salinas Valley located in Kings and Monterey counties. The Salinas River is the major drainage of the area, although it is also characterized by numerous creeks and streams. The area is protected from marine air intrusion and coastal fogs by the Santa Lucia Mountains on the west and south. This is a marked contrast to the York Mountain and SLO Coast viticultural areas to the west and south where coastal fogs are common with cooler temperatures in the summer months. The Paso Robles viticultural area is classified as Region III, with 3,001 to 3,500 degree days (GDD) of heat. This characterizes the area with a warmer climate by 500 to 1,000 degree days than the area to the west and south, and a cooler climate by 500 or more degree days than the area lying to the east. Rainfall within the area averages between 10 and 25 inches (250–640 mm) annually. However, rainfall is the highest on the crest of the Santa Lucia Mountain range in York Mountain with 50 inches (1,270 mm) annual precipitation with an average 4.24 inches (107.70 mm) during the growing season. Paso Robles growers generally augment rainfall by irrigation from wells and reservoirs. The area has a diurnal, beginning and ending of the day, temperature change of 40 to 50 °F (4–10 °C). This results from low to moderate humidity which is conducive to radiant cooling of the land surface. Regular afternoon winds disturb the local inversions, thereby promoting radiative cooling. The areas outside of Paso Robles viticultural area have a diurnal fluctuation of between 20 and 30 °F (−7 and −1 °C) caused by the flow of cool, moist marine air accompanied by fog intrusions. The area east of the area has a climate associated with the San Joaquin Valley, that is, less radiative cooling, more stable inversions, and higher evening temperatures.
San Luis Obispo County wine	75,668,022	Terroir	On November 10, 2014, TTB issued the final rule in the Federal Register establishing eleven distinct appellations within the existing Paso Robles viticultural area. The county's western terrain, where SLO Coast AVA lies, is composed of coastal terraces, foothills, and small valleys along the Pacific Coast oriented on a east-west axis allowing the area to experience the fog and cool marine air. According to the SLO Coast petition, 97 percent of the area is at or below 1,800 feet (550 m) in elevation, which corresponds to the approximate limit of the influence of the maritime climate.
San Luis Obispo County wine	75,668,022	Terroir	At the southern boundary of SLO Coast viticultural area and straddling the county's border is the Santa Maria Valley viticultural area of Santa Barbara County. Santa Maria Valley's flatter topography exposes it to the marine air breezes, therefore, the Growing degree day (GDD) accumulations are higher and the valley is characterized as Region II, and a lower average maximum growing season temperatures. Fog occurs over 55 percent of all nights during the growing season within the southern region of San Luis Obispo county.
San Luis Obispo County wine	75,668,022	New AVA	San Luis Obispo Coast (SLO Coast) became the latest viticultural area in the county receiving TTB recognition on April 8, 2022, after reviewing the petition from the SLO Coast AVA Association, proposing to establish the “San Luis Obispo Coast” AVA. The expansive area encompasses approximately 480,585 acres (750.914 sq mi) stretching over 70 miles (110 km) along the Pacific coastline from Ragged Point southbound on the Pacific Coast Highway and Highway 101 to the northern outskirts of Santa Maria at the intersection of State Highway 166 and Highway 101. It includes the coastal communities of San Simeon, Cambria, Cayucos, Morro Bay, Avila Beach, Pismo Beach, Arroyo Grande and Nipomo while encompassing the county seat of San Luis Obispo. The TTB approved the petition’s two names, "San Luis Obispo Coast" and "SLO Coast", to identify the viticultural area’s description and wine labeling. The term "SLO" is a historical and commonly used reference for the county and town initials as well as a description of the region’s relaxed culture. SLO Coast encompasses the established Edna Valley and Arroyo Grande Valley viticultural areas. There are over 50 wineries, as well as an estimated 78 commercial vineyards cultivating approximately 3,942 acres (1,595 ha) with most of the vineyards located within 6 miles (9.7 km) of the Pacific Ocean defining its grapes and wines.

Night After Night After Night	75,668,237	Plot	Four women have been murdered and Detective Inspector Bill Rowan is investigating. He believes that young thug and convicted rapist Peter Laver is responsible. When Rowan's own wife becomes the fifth victim, and yet two more women are murdered, Rowan arrests Laver on a spurious charge, and he is convicted for the latest murder, for which he has no alibi. Judge Charles Lomax presides over the murder case, and suffers a breakdown midway through the case. Discovering that the judge has a secret room full of pornography and S&M equipment, Rowan realises that in fact Lomax is the murderer.
Night After Night After Night	75,668,237	Critical reception	The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Lurid, pedestrian and totally unconvincing thriller whose contrived script throws up so conspicuous a red herring that the identity of the real villain is never in any doubt. The accent throughout is on sexual deviation and sleazy thrills; which is just as well, since if the plot weren't so ludicrous, it might raise some mildly serious questions about how such an obviously psychopathic judge (black wigs and leather gear are mere incidental diversions) came to be appointed in the first place."

Dusk or Dark or Dawn or Day	75,668,254	Plot	Ghosts are created when someone dies too young; they will not pass on to the afterlife until they reach their natural “dying day”. Ghosts will not age as time passes, but they have the ability to take time from the living. This makes the ghost older and the living person younger.
Dusk or Dark or Dawn or Day	75,668,254	Plot	In 2015, Jenna works at a suicide prevention hotline. Every time she saves a life, she allows herself to age slightly; she believes that she must earn the right to pass on.
Dusk or Dark or Dawn or Day	75,668,254	Plot	Ghosts begin disappearing from New York. Jenna and Brenda, a local corn witch, deduce that an unknown entity is trapping the ghosts in mirrors. They trace the entity to Jenna's hometown of Mill Hollow, Kentucky. In an abandoned theater in Mill Hollow, Jenna encounters Brenda’s daughter Teresa, also a corn witch. Teresa traps Jenna inside a mirror; she plans to sell the trapped ghosts as a way to extend the buyers’ lifespans. Jenna escapes and rescues the trapped ghosts. Brenda confronts her daughter, transforming them both into corn and growing a new field where the theater once stood. Jenna reaches her dying day and walks with her sister Patty into the afterlife.
Dusk or Dark or Dawn or Day	75,668,254	Reception	Publishers Weekly wrote that McGuire "displays her typical mix of endearing characters" in the novel, concluding that "this tightly paced adventure will win hearts with a charming protagonist and a well-earned ending." A review in Kirkus gave the novella 7 out of 10 stars, calling it "a really rich, poignant tale that delves into ... questions of mortality, loss, guilt, and so much more." The review also noted that the novella finds itself in a "hard place" due to its short length, with the reviewer wishing for more time to spend with Jenna's found family.
Dusk or Dark or Dawn or Day	75,668,254	Reception	Liz Bourke of Tor.com wrote that the book occupies a liminal space between novellas and short novels, which is appropriate for "a story sliding elegantly across the edges of multiple subgenres". Bourke praised McGuire's "energetic and transparent" prose, as well as the well-developed characters. The review also noted that "the most gaping [flaws] are the two astounding coincidences on which the story’s conclusion hinges." Finally, Bourke noted that "As someone who has, at times, wrestled with suicidal ideation, I have complicated feelings about how suicide is treated in fiction, and I am particularly uneasy with suicides side-by-side with portrayals of post-death afterlives."
Byzantine expedition to Calabria (788/789)	75,668,263		In late 788 or early 789, the Byzantine Empire invaded southern Italy in an effort to detach the kingdom of the Lombards from the Frankish domination and restore the exiled king Adelchis. The expeditionary army, support by the Sicilian theme, was defeated in a major battle by a combined force of Lombards and Franks under Prince Grimoald III of Benevento.
Byzantine expedition to Calabria (788/789)	75,668,263		The cause of the war was the breakdown in 788 of the proposed marriage between the Emperor Constantine VI, still under the regency of his mother, Irene, and Rotrude, the daughter of the Frankish king Charlemagne. Followingn the war, relations between the two empires were not re-established until 797.
Byzantine expedition to Calabria (788/789)	75,668,263	Date	In the words of the Royal Frankish Annals, "there was war between the Greeks and the Lombards" in 788. Theophanes the Confessor places the conflict under the year 6281 of the Byzantine calendar, which began on 1 September 788 and ended 31 August 789. Scholars generally date the invasion to 788 in accordance with the Annals. According to Tibor Živković, the expedition probably took place no earlier than December 788, since the definitive rupture in Franco-Byzantine relations occurred in October 788 and Constantine VI's marrige to Maria of Amnia in November, and no later than the spring of 789. Judith Herrin places the invasion in 789.
Byzantine expedition to Calabria (788/789)	75,668,263	Date	Byzantine and Frankish sources agree that the cause of the war was the canceling of the engagement between Charlemagne's daughter Rotrude and Constantine VI. They disagree on the initiative for the cancelation, with Theophanes crediting Irene and the Royal Annals Charlemagne. The historian Roger Collins accepts the Frankish account, which makes the Byzantine expedition into retaliation for Charlemagne cancelling the marriage alliance.
Byzantine expedition to Calabria (788/789)	75,668,263	Commanders and contingents	The Byzantine expeditionary force was under the command of the sakellarios John and the Lombard exile Adelchis. John was a eunuch who had commanded the army against the Abbasid invasion of Asia Minor in 781. Adelchis, called Theodotos by Theophanes, had been co-king of the Lombards with his father Desiderius prior to Charlemagne's conquest of the kingdom in 774. He continued to be reognised as the legitimate king by the Byzantine government. Had the expedition been successful, he would have been restored to rule in Italy under a Byzantine protectorate.
Byzantine expedition to Calabria (788/789)	75,668,263	Commanders and contingents	In the words of Theophanes, the purpose of the expedition was "to hold off Charles—if they could—and to detach some men from him." In addition to sending an expeditionary force, Irene ordered Theodore, the governor of Sicily, to provide support to the invasion. Theophanes says that Theodore was "with them" at the battle.
Byzantine expedition to Calabria (788/789)	75,668,263	Commanders and contingents	The Lombards were led by Duke Grimoald III of Benevento and Duke Hildeprand of Spoleto. A contingent of Franks under Winigis was sent, in the words of the Annals, "to oversee everything they [the Lombards] did". The Frankish force was probably small. The actual commander was Grimoald.
Byzantine expedition to Calabria (788/789)	75,668,263	Battle and aftermath	The main battle took place in Calabria. The Annals credits victory to the Franks and Lombards. Theophanes describes John as the commander "defeated by the Franks". He was captured in battle and "put to a cruel death". In a letter dated 790, Alcuin of York, Charlemagne's confidant, wrote to Colcu of Clonmacnoise that the Byzantines "fled to their ships" after their defeat, having lost 4,000 men killed and 1,000 captured.
Byzantine expedition to Calabria (788/789)	75,668,263	Battle and aftermath	Following the battle, there is no recorded diplomatic contact between the two powers until Constantine VI sent the strategos of Sicily, Niketas, on an embassy to Aachen in 797. It probably dealt with the release of prisoners. One of these captives, not released at that time, was Sisinnios, elder brother of Patriarch Tarasios of Constantinople. According the Annals, in 798, after Constantine's death, Irene negotiated his release.

Carmencita (Corinth)	75,668,274		Carmencita is an oil on canvas painting the German painter Lovis Corinth, from 1924. It was his last painting and depicts his wife Charlotte Berend-Corinth dressed as a Spanish noblewoman, after a costume party. It is held in the Städel, in Frankfurt am Main, which acquired it in 1959.
Carmencita (Corinth)	75,668,274	History and description	The current painting was created few days after a costume party that took place on February 28 1924 at the Berlin Secession. Charlotte Berendt-Corinth wore the Spanish costume and accompanied her husband to this celebration in the family's private living room. With the help of a bright chandelier, an artificial festival atmosphere was created; and Georges Bizet's opera Carmen was played in the background to provide musical accompaniment to the scene. In a surviving photograph, Charlotte can be seen wearing the costume while posing for Corinth.
Carmencita (Corinth)	75,668,274	History and description	The painting shows Charlotte Berend-Corinth, then aged 44 years old, standing almost life-size in a three-quarter length portrait wearing a black costume. In the catalog raisonné of Corinth's paintings, Charlotte herself described it that way: “Charlotte Corinth in black lace over yellow silk, with red flowers in her hair. In the background there is a burning chandelier and furniture illuminated in bright red. Painted after a costume party in Berlin, Klopstockstrasse.”
Carmencita (Corinth)	75,668,274	History and description	The figure of the sitter is moved from the center of the painting to the right side, where, standing in the foreground, it takes up almost two thirds of the picture's width and its entire height. She is turned slightly to the right, but faces the viewer head-on. The face is surrounded by her dark hair, decorated with red flowers. The left arm is supported at the waist, and there is a red flower arrangement on the opposite side of her waist. The right arm lies bent in front of the chest, the hand holds a white fan and she uses it to cover the lower edge of the low-cut cleavage, which particularly emphasizes her chest. According to Andrea Bärnreuther, the opulence of her breasts appears to bulge out of the garment. Carl Georg Heise states that the depiction makes her appear “matronically strong, which in no way corresponds to external reality.”
Carmencita (Corinth)	75,668,274	History and description	At the The background in the upper left corner is the named chandelier and a seating area made of light red furniture. Below the furniture the background is light, on the middle left edge the painting is dated of 1924 and signed with the words: "– Carmencita – / Lovis Corinth / 1924".
Carmencita (Corinth)	75,668,274	History and description	The coloring of the figure is very dominant in this work, while the motif is strongly resolved due to the quick and rough brushwork. The dominant color is the black of the costume and the hair, which covers the yellow-green of the silk dress and “burns into it like fire”. On the left arm, the black becomes transparent and allows her arm to be seen; here the colors change between black, blue, violet and dark red. Particularly striking are the red flowers in her hair and under her breast, “which pop out of the painting together with the red painted lips” (Andrea Bärnreuther), as well as the white emphasis on the breasts created by the fan and the cleavage.<ref>Georg Bussmann, Lovis Corinth Carmencita – Malerei an der Kante, Frankfurt am Main, Fischer Taschenbuch Verlag, 1985 (German)<ref>

Wilbert Hamilton	75,668,294		C. Wilbert Hamilton (November 17, 1897–June 9, 1964) was a Canadian politician. He was an alderman on Ottawa City Council from 1932 to 1933 and from 1935 to 1956, and a member of the Ottawa Board of Control from 1957 to 1962. His tenure in civic politics set a record for longest continual years of service.
Wilbert Hamilton	75,668,294	Early life	Hamilton was born in South March, Ontario, the son of immigrants William John Hamilton from Ireland and Mary Gordon of Scotland. His father was a farmer in Carp, Ontario. The family moved to Dalhousie Ward in 1909.
Wilbert Hamilton	75,668,294	Early life	He went to high school at Lisgar Collegiate Institute and attended Teacher's College, where he trained to be a printing technical teacher. Following his education, he worked as a compositor at the government printing bureau, where he would work for over 30 years, retiring as superintendent. One of his responsibilities was ensuring that Hansard was delivered to the Canadian Parliament every day while it was in session. He also oversaw several top secret documents during World War II.
Wilbert Hamilton	75,668,294	Early life	He served in World War I with the 74th Battery, Canadian Field Artillery where he was a gunner.
Wilbert Hamilton	75,668,294	Early life	Hamilton first considered running for Ottawa City Council in the 1930 Ottawa municipal election, but ultimately did not. The following year, he was successful in having a charge of illegally competing with the Ottawa Electric Railway (OER) withdrawn, as he was suspected of accepting remuneration from passengers in his automobile. During his political career, he supported the city taking over the OER, and supported the city's transition from streetcars to busses.
Wilbert Hamilton	75,668,294	Alderman	On November 2, 1931, Hamilton announced that he would run for city council in his home Dalhousie Ward in the 1931 Ottawa municipal election. He was elected along with E. P. McGrath, winning 1,575 votes for the two-seat position, 321 votes fewer than McGrath. He ran on a platform of lower taxes, re-organization of city hall, co-operation with the government to build a new city hall, submitting all large expenditures to taxpayers, city contracts to local firms, no further concessions to the Ottawa Electric Railway, the return of working-men's tickets, day labour and fair wage clause on all city works, and co-operation to relieve unemployment.
Wilbert Hamilton	75,668,294	Alderman	At the time, municipal elections were an annual occurrence. Hamilton ran again for re-election in the 1932 municipal election, after securing permission from his government department. Both Hamilton and his seat mate McGrath were re-elected, Hamilton with 1,692 votes, 250 votes behind McGrath. At this point, Hamilton was the youngest member of city council. On council, he was a member of the Civic Industrial and Publicity Committee, and was the chairman of the Mothers' Allowance Committee. Hamilton ran for re-election in the 1933 election, but went down to defeat for the only time in his career. Former controller Daniel McCann had entered the race, and topped the poll with 2,285 votes. McVeigh was re-elected with 1,315 votes, while Hamilton finished third with 1,268 votes. Following his defeat, he continued to chair the Mothers' Allowance Committee until October 1934. He also studied unemployment insurance, and promoted rehabilitating families on relief.
Wilbert Hamilton	75,668,294	Alderman	Hamilton sought election again in the 1934 election, and was elected back on to council, winning 1,579 votes, nearly 1,700 votes behind McCann, who again topped the poll. McVeigh was defeated, after having finished third, just 38 votes behind Hamilton, and was the only alderman who lost his seat in the election. During the 1935 term on council, Hamilton took an interest in work and relief and was the chairman of the special committee dealing with a civic works program. He became chairman of the Mothers' Allowances again, was a member of the special committee on classification of civic employees. Following speculation he may run for a seat on the city's Board of Control, Hamilton announced on November 6, 1935 that he would run in that year's municipal election. He was ultimately re-elected, winning 1,989 votes, 259 votes behind McCann who topped the poll again. McVeigh finished third, over 1000 votes behind Hamilton.

History

Despite conflicting accounts, the first recorded planting of a vineyard was probably by the Spanish Jesuit Missionary Eusebio Francisco Kino at Misión San Bruno in Baja California in 1683 implanting the first variety named "Misionéro." In 1779, Franciscan missionaries under the direction of the Spanish Father Junípero Serra planted California's first vineyard at Mission San Juan Capistrano. The mission’s historical journals document that between May 1779 and 1781, the padres supervised six ‘campesinos’ from Baja California in planting 2,000 grapevines at the mission. These grapevines, Vitis vinifera, were originally transported by ship from Spain and later became known in the New World as Mission Grapes. The vines arrived in Mexico around the year 1540 and cuttings were planted throughout Mexico and spread north with Spanish explorers in the 1620s. Cuttings were later planted in 1769 at the site of the first mission founded in San Diego and dominated California wine production until about 1880.

History

The first winery in Alta California was built at San Juan Capistrano in 1783; both red and white wines (sweet and dry), brandy, and a port-like wine called Angelica were all produced from the Mission grape. Father Serra founded eight other California missions, hence, he has been called the "Father of California Wine." The county’s historic landmark, "Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa" was founded September 1, 1772 by Father Serra in the current town of San Luis Obispo. The mission was named after Saint Louis of Anjou, the bishop of Toulouse, the namesake of the region and town. Father Serra sent an expedition down south from the capital of Alta California, Monterey, to build the San Luis Obispo mission. A cross was erected near San Luis Obispo Creek and Serra celebrated the first mass. Following the mass, Father Junípero Serra left the construction responsibilities to Father Jose Cavaller. The California Missions were developed over three decades that included structure construction, crops, livestock, vineyards, and wineries. Each site gradually came to its peak during the 1830s and 1840s. In the 1830s the Franciscans produced as much as 50,000 gallons of wine a year at the San Gabriel Mission, the fourth of 21 missions founded in California in 1771. The San Gabriel Mission, built from 1791 to 1805 using brick, mortar, and cut stone, is the oldest structure of its kind south of Monterey. The Franciscans planted the first working vineyard in California. A large “mother vine” that was planted in 1861 has grown to notable size and length. It is the same variety as the original vines brought from Spain and still produces fruit. However, there are no records of a vineyard or winemaking in San Luis Obispo prior to 1820s when over one hundred barrels of wine a year are recorded for Mission San Luis Obispo. Its vineyard became the mission system’s largest after the Mission San Gabriel.

History

The oldest recorded residence in San Luis Obispo County is the Dana Adobe in Nipomo which was originally built on a Mexican land grant of nearly 38,000 acres (15,000 ha) and presented in 1837 to William Goodwin Dana, originally from Boston, Massachusetts, who named it Rancho Nipomo. Captain Dana, married Maria Josefa Carrillo in 1829, the daughter of the original Governor of Alta California, Carlos Antonio Carrillo. By the 1840s, Dana established a large cattle ranch, built his home, and eventually raised 21 children. The ranch also had planted crops and vineyards. From the 1860s to the 1890s, Pierre Hypolite Dallidet was renown as the first commercial winemaker and also became the first commercial distiller in San Luis Obispo County. His legend is one of adventure, service to his country, viticulture, and travels abroad, from his village in southwestern France to Tahiti to Hangtown and finally to San Luis Obispo. He pioneered commercial wine and brandy making, sourcing fruit from his own vineyards and orchards. He was famous for assisting the French government in saving the premium French grape varietals decimated by the Phylloxera epidemic that destroyed historic French vineyards in the 1870s.

Terroir

San Luis Obispo county is hemmed-in close to the Pacific coastline by the Santa Lucia Range while over the hills lies the southern end of the Central Valley, which connects this area with northern California. At the county’s northern border, its largest viticultural area, Paso Robles, encompasses 669,253 acres (1,046 sq mi) defined by rolling hills and valleys with an average elevation between 600 and 1,000 feet (183–305 m). The boundaries of the Paso Robles area are characterized by township and range lines, the county line, and straight lines from points of reference. These boundary descriptions are the most practical approximation of the ridge lines that enclose the viticultural area. The soils of the area are generally alluvial and terrace deposits, usually fertile and well-drained. The area is bounded on the west and south by the Santa Lucia mountain range whose crest averages between 2,300 and 2,850 feet (701–869 m). The Cholame Hills to the east crest at about the 3,000 feet (914 m) elevation. The Salinas River has its headwaters at Santa Margarita Lake just south of the boundary and flows northward through the area into the Salinas Valley located in Kings and Monterey counties. The Salinas River is the major drainage of the area, although it is also characterized by numerous creeks and streams. The area is protected from marine air intrusion and coastal fogs by the Santa Lucia Mountains on the west and south. This is a marked contrast to the York Mountain and SLO Coast viticultural areas to the west and south where coastal fogs are common with cooler temperatures in the summer months. The Paso Robles viticultural area is classified as Region III, with 3,001 to 3,500 degree days (GDD) of heat. This characterizes the area with a warmer climate by 500 to 1,000 degree days than the area to the west and south, and a cooler climate by 500 or more degree days than the area lying to the east. Rainfall within the area averages between 10 and 25 inches (250–640 mm) annually. However, rainfall is the highest on the crest of the Santa Lucia Mountain range in York Mountain with 50 inches (1,270 mm) annual precipitation with an average 4.24 inches (107.70 mm) during the growing season. Paso Robles growers generally augment rainfall by irrigation from wells and reservoirs. The area has a diurnal, beginning and ending of the day, temperature change of 40 to 50 °F (4–10 °C). This results from low to moderate humidity which is conducive to radiant cooling of the land surface. Regular afternoon winds disturb the local inversions, thereby promoting radiative cooling. The areas outside of Paso Robles viticultural area have a diurnal fluctuation of between 20 and 30 °F (−7 and −1 °C) caused by the flow of cool, moist marine air accompanied by fog intrusions. The area east of the area has a climate associated with the San Joaquin Valley, that is, less radiative cooling, more stable inversions, and higher evening temperatures.

Terroir

On November 10, 2014, TTB issued the final rule in the Federal Register establishing eleven distinct appellations within the existing Paso Robles viticultural area. The county's western terrain, where SLO Coast AVA lies, is composed of coastal terraces, foothills, and small valleys along the Pacific Coast oriented on a east-west axis allowing the area to experience the fog and cool marine air. According to the SLO Coast petition, 97 percent of the area is at or below 1,800 feet (550 m) in elevation, which corresponds to the approximate limit of the influence of the maritime climate.

75,668,022

Terroir

At the southern boundary of SLO Coast viticultural area and straddling the county's border is the Santa Maria Valley viticultural area of Santa Barbara County. Santa Maria Valley's flatter topography exposes it to the marine air breezes, therefore, the Growing degree day (GDD) accumulations are higher and the valley is characterized as Region II, and a lower average maximum growing season temperatures. Fog occurs over 55 percent of all nights during the growing season within the southern region of San Luis Obispo county.

New AVA

San Luis Obispo Coast (SLO Coast) became the latest viticultural area in the county receiving TTB recognition on April 8, 2022, after reviewing the petition from the SLO Coast AVA Association, proposing to establish the “San Luis Obispo Coast” AVA. The expansive area encompasses approximately 480,585 acres (750.914 sq mi) stretching over 70 miles (110 km) along the Pacific coastline from Ragged Point southbound on the Pacific Coast Highway and Highway 101 to the northern outskirts of Santa Maria at the intersection of State Highway 166 and Highway 101. It includes the coastal communities of San Simeon, Cambria, Cayucos, Morro Bay, Avila Beach, Pismo Beach, Arroyo Grande and Nipomo while encompassing the county seat of San Luis Obispo. The TTB approved the petition’s two names, "San Luis Obispo Coast" and "SLO Coast", to identify the viticultural area’s description and wine labeling. The term "SLO" is a historical and commonly used reference for the county and town initials as well as a description of the region’s relaxed culture. SLO Coast encompasses the established Edna Valley and Arroyo Grande Valley viticultural areas. There are over 50 wineries, as well as an estimated 78 commercial vineyards cultivating approximately 3,942 acres (1,595 ha) with most of the vineyards located within 6 miles (9.7 km) of the Pacific Ocean defining its grapes and wines.

Critical reception

Peter Kay, writing in The Canberra Times, stated: "Peter Kocan's The Cure is a moving, chilling and distinctly memorable novel. While the themes he explores are profound, Kocan's prose is spare and direct. He is a skilful builder of tension and he handles his characters with superb sensitivity...Kocan's use of humour, to both temper and accentuate the horrors of mental hospital life, adds greatly to the impact of this impressive and disturbing book."

Critical reception

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "Lurid, pedestrian and totally unconvincing thriller whose contrived script throws up so conspicuous a red herring that the identity of the real villain is never in any doubt. The accent throughout is on sexual deviation and sleazy thrills; which is just as well, since if the plot weren't so ludicrous, it might raise some mildly serious questions about how such an obviously psychopathic judge (black wigs and leather gear are mere incidental diversions) came to be appointed in the first place."

Reception

Publishers Weekly wrote that McGuire "displays her typical mix of endearing characters" in the novel, concluding that "this tightly paced adventure will win hearts with a charming protagonist and a well-earned ending." A review in Kirkus gave the novella 7 out of 10 stars, calling it "a really rich, poignant tale that delves into ... questions of mortality, loss, guilt, and so much more." The review also noted that the novella finds itself in a "hard place" due to its short length, with the reviewer wishing for more time to spend with Jenna's found family.

Reception

Liz Bourke of Tor.com wrote that the book occupies a liminal space between novellas and short novels, which is appropriate for "a story sliding elegantly across the edges of multiple subgenres". Bourke praised McGuire's "energetic and transparent" prose, as well as the well-developed characters. The review also noted that "the most gaping [flaws] are the two astounding coincidences on which the story’s conclusion hinges." Finally, Bourke noted that "As someone who has, at times, wrestled with suicidal ideation, I have complicated feelings about how suicide is treated in fiction, and I am particularly uneasy with suicides side-by-side with portrayals of post-death afterlives."
