NITA 2008 Priorat

Excellent Spanish Red Wine!

Thanks to the owner of Attrezzi, in Portsmouth, NH I got to try this wonderful wine. He claimed that the wine was on sale - it still cost $22 but was worth every penny.

Attrezzi is a very nice shop in Downtown Portsmouth. The owner is a very interesting person - a chef, sommelier and much more.  

I highly recommend you visit that store when you next visit Portsmouth, NH. It is even worth the ride from Massachusetts. They have a web site as well: http://www.attrezzinh.com

The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs...


I have been getting this error message every time I start iTunes for years:
"The registry settings used by the iTunes drivers for importing and burning CDs and DVDs are missing ..."
When I edited the registry following the steps outlined in the article below I found that the value for the UpperFilters key had the value of "Cdralw2k". I added "GEARAspiWDM" on the second line as Apple suggested.You can see from the snapshot of regedit that whatever program replaced the UpperFilters setting made a backup of it although that didn't help much.


Found this solution here:
