For both of his terms, former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger flew back and forth between Los Angeles and Sacramento each day on his private “Bear Force One” jet so that he could reside at his home in the Brentwood neighborhood of L.A Former Governor Jerry Brown had less of a commute as they sold their Marin County house a year after being elected in 2018 and moved to Sacramento full-time “To ensure continuity in their children’s education the family will split their time between Sacramento and Marin heading into the coming academic year,” the Governor’s office said in June “The family’s children are transitioning grade levels The Governor and First Partner want to create continuity in their children’s education recognizing the Governor’s term ends in January 2027.” That plan moved forward on Thursday when Newsom purchased a six bedroom a town of around 7,000 with many millionaires and celebrities living in the community Newsom even bought the house from a billionaire With Newsom now set to commute even more between the Bay Area and Sacramento for his final two years in office the move also sets up what he is likely to do afterwards: launch a Presidential run With Donald Trump now reelected and Newsom not having to worry about a Kamala Harris reelection in 2028 Newsom is likely to resume his long-rumored plans to run for President following him leaving the Governor’s chair The House in Kentfield is isolated enough to keep press at a reasonable distance away and large enough for more advanced security measures such as bodyguards should they be needed America will see this as the Western White House,” explained political advisor Daniel Corwin to the Globe on Friday “This is his Crawford Ranch or Mar-a-Lago we’ll be hearing a lot about it should he run This isn’t a situation where ‘oh No It is just a good sign that he is starting to move slowly away from the Governor’s seat and off to his next thing he wanted his kids in a good school and to have a home ready for post-Governorship Newsom is eyeing an older mansion in Washington.” It is currently unknown how much time Newsom will be splitting between his new home and Sacramento for the next two years We do not want him to forget about those living in the RVs’s just because his special bucolic area of Kentfield is immune to this issue he will never be the POTUS of this great republic The rest of the country sees the emperor of California has no clothes he wanted his kids in a good school” explained political advisor Daniel Corwin to the Globe on Friday Meanwhile this POS Governor is doing everything he can to block Charter schools and school vouchers so others can’t have their kids in good schools How many homeless shelters and low income housing are in the ritzy town Kentfield or in Marin County where Gavin “Hair-gel Hitler” Newsom and mostly other wealthy Democrats live While Newsom and AG Bonta have been suing cities across the state for the lack of affordable housing Newsom and his Democrat cronies in the legislature have hypocritically exempted all cities in Marin County from having low income housing until 2031 https://californiaglobe.com/fr/gov-newsom-browbeating-huntington-beach-again-for-housing-requirements-while-marin-remains-exempted/ https://californiaglobe.com/fr/gov-newsom-sues-norwalk-over-ban-on-homeless-shelters-and-supportive-housing/ (https://californiaglobe.com/fr/gov-newsom-browbeating-huntington-beach-again-for-housing-requirements-while-marin-remains-exempted/) (https://californiaglobe.com/fr/gov-newsom-sues-norwalk-over-ban-on-homeless-shelters-and-supportive-housing/) This purchase reminds me of some of Obama’s real estate purchases before he ran for president https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pritzker_family https://www.forbes.com/profile/daniel-pritzker/ The LLC is likely a mask to cover Getty contributions and activity…like everything else in Gavie-poo’s past all the way back from Day 1 I am not a big fan of Matt Gaetz but if he gets the AG position through confirmation or recess appointment (and Mr Trump wants him) I think that Newscum’s real estate dealings deserve to be looked at real estate seems to be the preferred mode of moving assets among the Dems;

inspire confidence as you swirl and in our testing it enhanced the aromas of both red and white wines better than most of the competition This inexpensive tulip-shaped glass showcases both red and white wines well It’s durable yet still thin and elegant enough for dinner parties this glass proved its value across a range of wines and doesn’t feel too precious to use every day This is a stylish stemless glass that you can use for more than just wine sparkling nonleaded crystal to showcase your favorite bubbly and it’s versatile enough to be the only wine glass you need The shape is nicely balanced with a thin lip that makes it feel more sophisticated than other clunky It’s also dishwasher safe and durable enough to withstand the rigors of daily use We particularly recommend this glass for people who tend to drink wine that costs $20 or less per bottle (this glass won’t necessarily highlight the nuanced aromas and flavors of pricier wines) or for those who regularly entertain It’s versatile and performed as well in our taste tests as glasses costing twice as much Nice glasses shouldn’t be reserved for special occasions so we appreciate that the StandArt isn’t so expensive that you’ll be afraid to use it every day The slightly angled bowl is an elegant touch that enhances swirling and most testers also found the heavier weight and thicker stem of the StandArt more comfortable to use than the ultrathin Zalto Denk’Art Universal Glass which is sturdier and better looking than the other stemless options we tested The angled sides give it a modern look and also make it hard to knock over The Harmony was pleasant to drink out of and a comfortable size for most people to wrap their hand around While it didn’t do much to enhance delicate wines Our experts recommend the Harmony for enjoying inexpensive but you could also use it as a water or highball glass Just know that all stemless glasses come with downsides: Because you have to hold them by the bowl while leaving unsightly fingerprints on the outside The pros we spoke to agreed that the best thing to drink Champagne out of is a wine glass But if you don’t typically spend $40 or more on a bottle of Champagne flutes offer an elegant look and are a must for any celebration The tulip shape also walks the line between that of a tall flute and the more useful (aromatically speaking) bowl of a traditional wine glass the Cuvee Prestige also sparkles brilliantly under the light imperceptible etching at the bottom of the bowl keeps your wine carbonated for as long as possible Our conversations with experts helped us determine the ideal features of a wine glass Here's what we looked for in our research and testing: Stem preferred: We primarily focused on stemmed wine glasses because they offer a better drinking experience than stemless glasses you quickly warm the wine past the optimal drinking temperature you leave unsightly fingerprints all over the bowl of the glass That said, most of our experts agree that a stemless choice is fine for casual drinking, and we recognize that it’s popular among many people, so we did include a stemless pick in this guide which allow for a view of the liquid inside and made of heavy crystal with patterned etchings we looked for glasses free of imperfections—bends which are signs of poor quality and can lead to breakage Thin rims: We also ruled out glasses with thick rims and clunky stems After sorting through hundreds of glasses for this guide it’s clear that the less expensive the glass All our experts were partial to glasses with a thin rim because it felt best against their lips—more elegant and less distracting the thinnest glasses generally did an excellent job highlighting the flavors and aromas of multiple wines and most people found them handsome to look at many of our testers remarked that the thinnest stems were difficult to grip and felt poised to break during use Even knowing that those thinner glasses are more durable than they appear (all remained intact in our drop tests) the glasses we favored hit a nice middle ground: thin enough to feel elegant but thick enough to feel comfortable Medium bowl: The size of the bowl (the part of the glass that holds the wine) affects how well you can swirl the wine and detect its aroma New York Times wine critic Eric Asimov told us: “You want a bowl that’s big enough to hold a healthy amount of wine while really being no more than a third full That gives you plenty of room to swirl the wine without fearing you’re going to throw it across the room or onto your shirt.” We looked for all-purpose glasses from 14 to 19 fluid ounces which we found big enough to expose red wine to enough oxygen to let aromas become detectable and still small enough to preserve the subtle aromas of delicate whites The right shape: We narrowed our search to wine glasses with a slight tulip shape to the bowl, which showcases the aroma of wines best “You want the diameter of the rim to be a little less wide than the widest part of the bowl That helps to channel aromas upward and makes the aromas of the wine a little bit easier to detect.” We found both rounded and angular glasses tulip-shaped glasses that we liked While most wine professionals agree that the wider shape of a wine glass lets the aromatics of a premium bottle of Champagne (think $40 and above) open and develop better than a Champagne flute does there are situations (like a Champagne toast) that call for the celebratory flutes narrow shape of a flute also helps keep your bubbly from going flat too quickly we looked for shapes that preserved carbonation well but didn’t close off the aromas of the sparkling wine too much we dropped a Mentos into four different Champagne-filled flutes that had been sitting for 15 minutes The Mentos accelerated the nucleation process and released most of the carbonation that was left—whichever glass produced the most fizz had preserved carbonation the best comfortable stems: We avoided wine glasses that were too short and stubby because they are less unattractive than glasses with longer The stem also needs to be long enough that you can comfortably hold the glass without your hand touching the bowl which could warm the wine and leave smudges But we still wanted the glasses to be short enough to easily fit in a cupboard or the top rack of a dishwasher We found the ideal height of a wine glass is about 8 to 9 inches Balance and weight: We looked for glasses that were well-balanced and didn’t feel wobbly when full of wine The best had bases that were about the same circumference as the widest part of the bowl A glass that feels almost weightless when empty can feel unbalanced when it is full of wine while an excessively heavy glass is unpleasant to sip from and cumbersome to hold We looked for options that struck a comfortable balance wine glasses have been sold on the premise that you need a smaller bowl for white wines and a larger one for reds But our tests proved that a smaller glass doesn’t enhance white wines for most tasters the biggest reds could be as expressive in a medium-size universal glass as in an XL cabernet model there are plenty of complex whites that benefit from intense swirling in a larger glass just as much as a red can we conducted a brand-concealed tasting (most recently with Mary Taylor a wine importer and distributor who has previously worked as a sommelier) We tasted six vastly different wines in every glass We also polled a dozen members of Wirecutter staff on how they drink at home and asked them to taste wine from the glasses they were most attracted to Durability: We performed drop tests with all of our finalists: We knocked them over 10 times onto a hardwood surface both when the glass was empty and filled one-third full with water We also hit the bowl of the glass against the edge of a granite counter to see how it would fare And although it may seem counterintuitive with delicate stemware, all of our picks (and most wine glasses) can go in the dishwasher some high-end wine glasses specify that machine washing is preferred This is because the biggest risk for breaking comes during handwashing where a glass can slip and hit the sink or snap if you twist the bowl and stem in opposite directions But if you must handwash glasses, we recommend cleaning delicate stemware with hot water, a bottle brush, and a little bit of dish soap We particularly recommend this inexpensive 16-ounce tulip-shaped glass if you mostly drink bottles of wine in the $20 or less range or simply want a set of stemware that doesn’t cost a fortune The Libbey was a favorite of our experts and non-experts alike showcased the aromas of both reds and whites well and has a classic look that’s appropriate for daily use or formal occasions with a thin lip that doesn’t distract from enjoying the overall drinking experience Our experts were better able to detect the subtle aromas of both red and white wines in the tulip-shaped Libbey than in many of the other glasses we tested Our experts and other testers found the size of the bowl and diameter of the base to be perfectly proportioned “but not scary like I'm going to break the glass if I sneeze.” Several of our Wirecutter staff testers said this glass was the one they were most likely to buy for their own use for its classic shape and balanced look While the Libbey glass is slightly thicker than fine crystal stemware especially if you’re wary of giving an expensive glass to rowdy guests Made from what Libbey calls its ClearFire formula for soda-lime glass it does seem to sparkle more under the light than other soda-lime glass offerings in this price category and is remarkably thin for such an inexpensive glass thinner rims and elongated stems are features we see in glasses costing nearly two or three times as much You can put the Libbey into the dishwasher and we were even able to fit it comfortably on the bottom rack The Libbey glass comes with a 30-day warranty that covers glasses that arrive broken from shipping but doesn't cover damage that occurs during normal use but some of the more expensive models we tested remained intact But since the Libbey glasses are so inexpensive you won’t be heartbroken if one does break The Kentfield performed best with the wines we tried in the $10 to $20 range Taylor noted that it hid flaws better than the less expensive Korin Bordeaux glass on the $10 red but with the $25 pinot noir it “concentrates sulfur and sweetness” and is a “better glass for inexpensive wine.” If you regularly enjoy wines that cost more than $20 you may want to spring for the Gabriel-Glas StandArt which performed beautifully with all the wines we tasted It’s a beautiful object with a unique silhouette that stands out without being ostentatious It performed just as well as competitors twice the price and doesn’t feel so delicate that you’ll only opt to use it from time to time It expresses wine well. Our expert Mary Taylor noted that among the glasses she tried, the StandArt “does the best job for the nose” and that “it shows fruit and hides flaws.” This glass performed well across all of the wine styles we tested, including the aged red, which other glasses struggled with. In comparison, the Libbey Kentfield glass was not as universally flattering It’s sometimes advised that you should spend the same amount of money on a wine glass that you would for a typical bottle of wine It's sturdy. The StandArt passed our drop tests without a crack and is dishwasher safe. The glass is made of molded rather than blown nonleaded crystal, so it’s visibly thicker than a mouth-blown Zalto glass and about 1.5 times as heavy But that extra weight keeps the StandArt from feeling top-heavy when filled with a larger pour and gave our testers more confidence in the durability of the glass people had a hard time getting comfortable with the ultrathin Zalto despite being assured of its surprising durability The StandArt is a bit lighter than the Libbey Kentfield glass and the rim feels thin and unobtrusive in your mouth Many of our testers also loved the stylish shape one that bridges the gap between modern angled sides and the more classic round bowl While $32 is not inexpensive for any single piece of tableware the StandArt is relatively affordable for the experience it delivers Although it was the most compact of the stemless glasses we tested the angled edges of the Harmony made it easy to swirl and aerate wine This glass was also the most comfortable to handle among the stemless options we tested While it’s not great at enhancing the flavor of more delicate wines the Harmony can also be used for water and cocktails so the set you acquire for casual wine drinking can pull double duty as a water glass during more formal moments The angled edges of the Harmony made for a sturdier glass that was almost impossible to knock over during our drop tests (it often popped back upright like a punching clown) If you choose stemless glasses for parties or large dinners the Rastal Harmony takes up less space on a table and packs more easily into the dishwasher Though it's on the thick side, we still enjoyed drinking from it. Aside from the inherent drawbacks of all stemless wine glasses—they show fingerprints, and your hand will warm the wine while drinking—the Rastal glass has a slight lip. However, since we recommend stemless glasses for casual use, we’re willing to forgive this minor issue. Although the rim is slightly thicker than the than the Ravenscroft most testers found the inexpensive Harmony to be more fun to drink from It walks the line between a tall flute and the more useful (aromatically speaking) bowl of a traditional wine glass and has ample capacity to hold a generous pour of bubbly without overflowing This glass has a tiny imperceptible etching at the bottom of the bowl that allows the gas to escape in a steady flow from a single targeted place keeping the wine carbonated for as long as possible Considering the quality craftsmanship and materials this flute is a bargain at about $25 per glass the Cuvee Prestige sparkles brilliantly under the light This is not a comprehensive list of everything we tested in previous iterations of this guide Our two main issues with the Zalto Universal are its price and its light weight both of which deterred most people from wanting to use the glass in the first place the differences between tasting with a Zalto and with the Gabriel-Glas StandArt were not significant enough to recommend spending twice as much most testers find the stem too thin and the glass too top-heavy when full causing more stress on the hand and making the glass a bad choice for anyone with grip issues and wine importer Mary Taylor noticed it worked best with aged red wine But our testers had the same discomfort gripping such a thin stem that they did using the Zalto The glass was slightly smaller than most of the others tested When we tried it with a simple red and white wine it didn’t impress us enough to recommend it over universal glasses our experts found the stem on the Ouverture Magnum too short and unpleasant to hold we were able to dismiss other wine glasses from Stölzle but we favored the Rastal Harmony for its looks and durability which was so heavy it outweighed most of the stemware in our lineup It’s also enormous and too wide for most people to grip or swirl with ease We wished this glass had a smaller bowl with a slightly narrower opening but we cannot recommend it due to its increased cost and constant availability problems it wasn’t able to preserve carbonation as well as our top picks our testers felt like they were drinking out of a miniature wine glass We ruled out a number of other champagne flutes from Baccarat This article was edited by Marilyn Ong and Marguerite Preston C.
