# Italian Swiss Colony

Italian Swiss Colony was a 19th and 20th-century American wine company and brand. Based in Asti, Sonoma County, California, Italian Swiss Colony was at one time the leading wine producer in California.

## Establishment and growth

In 1881, Andrea Sbarboro founded an agricultural colony at Asti (named for Asti in Italy), primarily focused on grapes. Sbarboro's intent was to establish a profitable enterprise that would provide work for the many Italians who had migrated to San Francisco (although there were at first some Italian speaking Swiss from Ticino, thus giving the colony its name, it soon became an entirely Italian-American enterprise.) The corporation had originally been organized to allow the workers to eventually buy ownership, but this never developed, and it remained a normal joint-stock company. In 1887, a collapse in grape prices forced the company to construct a winery and begin wine production itself.
Key personnel in these early years, besides Sbarboro, were Charles Kohler, Paolo de Vecchi, and Pietro Rossi. Rossi led the company to develop its own agencies to sell directly to eastern markets; soon after the wine was being sold in Europe, South America, and Asia. The huge wine cistern (with a capacity of 500,000 U.S. gallons or 1.9 megaliters) that Sbarboro had had built became a tourist attraction. By 1905, the wines had won medals at various international competitions. By 1910 the company owned over 5,000 acres (2,000 hectares) in various holdings in the Central Valley.
As the movement for prohibition of alcohol in the United States grew, Sbarboro became a leading spokesman for wine and temperance, but lived to see the beginning of prohibition on January 16, 1920.

## After prohibition

The Italian Swiss Colony operation (then owned by National Distillers) was acquired in 1953 by Louis Petri of Petri Wine (founded in 1886). Petri shepherded the growth of Italian Swiss Colony as a mass-market brand; wine was shipped in tankers to be bottled in New York. Television ads featuring Ludwig Stössel (voiced by Jim Backus; yodeling by Bob Oates) with the catchphrase "The little old winemaker – me!" appeared regularly on American national television. (Dean Martin and others recorded a song titled on a parody of that line, "Little Old Wine Drinker Me".)
The company later became part of United Vintners (organized by Louis Petri and others), then was sold to Heublein in 1969, and later sold by Heublein to Allied Growers. By 1987, the company had been renamed to ISC Wines and the brand from Italian Swiss Colony to just Colony (ISC also had other brands, including jug wine label Petri). In 1987 Allied Growers sold ISC Wines to Erly Industries, who merged it with Sierra Wine Company into a new entity. In 2015 the descendant of the company, now operating under the name Asti Winery and selling wine under the Souverain brand, and owning America's sixth-largest wine production facility, was purchased by E & J Gallo Winery from its owner, Australia-based Treasury Wine Estates.

# Vanden Winter ende vanden Somer

Vanden Winter ende vanden Somer is a Middle Dutch drama. It is the shortest of the four abele spelen ("able plays") contained in the Van Hulthem Manuscript, comprising 625 lines in rhyme.
The other abele spelen are: Esmoreit, Gloriant and Lanseloet van Denemerken.
The play deals with the battle between Winter and Summer and their role in arousing erotic love. The play is followed by the sotternie (farce) Rubben.

## Roles

* Venus (goddess of love)
* Die Winter
* Die Somer
* Loiaert (on Winter's side, lazy man)
* Moyaert (on Somer's side, dandy)
* Clappaert (on Winter's side, talks a mile a minute)
* Bollaert (on Somer's side, boaster)
* Die Cockien (tramp)

## Plot

The main figures Winter and Somer and their companions have a fierce debate about which of the two is the most important season of the year for making love. Both are convinced they are: Winter because of the long nights indoors; Somer because of the "happy season for happy hearts".
With tempers running high, they decide to have a duel to see who is right; they both expect to win to get rid of the other for all time. While both are preparing to fight, Moyaert runs to seek the intervention of the goddess Venus as the arbiter of questions of love.
Venus separates the two, who after some reluctance yield out of respect for her. Venus points out the importance and equality of the two seasons and the fact that the one cannot be without the other. There is only one loser and the end of the play: Cockien had wanted Somer to win.

# Vasicinone

Vasicinone is a quinazoline alkaloid. It shows bronchodilator action in vitro but bronchoconstrictor action in vivo. Vasicinone was shown to have an antianaphylactic action. It has been found within Peganum harmala.
Vasicinone has also been studied in combination with the related alkaloid vasicine. Both the alkaloids in combination (1:1) showed pronounced bronchodilatory activity in vivo and in vitro. Both alkaloids are also respiratory stimulants. Vasicine has a cardiac–depressant effect, while vasicinone is a weak cardiac stimulant; the effect can be normalized by combining the alkaloids. Vasicine is reported to have a uterine stimulant effect.

# Vauxhall Light Six

The Vauxhall Light 6 is an automobile which was produced by Vauxhall in the United Kingdom from 1933 to 1938.

## Model ASY/ASX

Based on the Vauxhall Cadet the new car had a smaller version of the existing engine created by lengthening the stroke to 100 mm and reducing the bore to 57 mm for the 1530 cc ASY and 61.5 mm for the 1781 cc ASX. With overhead valves and Zenith down-draught carburetor the smaller engine produced 36bhp at 4000 rpm and the 1781 cc produced 43bhp at 3500 rpm. The power was transmitted to the rear axle via a single-plate clutch to a 4-speed gearbox, with “silent third” and synchromesh on 3rd & 4th gears. Twelve volt electrics were fitted.
The Cadet chassis was shortened by 6 in (150 mm) and extra cross-members added. Semi-elliptic leaf spring suspension was fitted to front and rear axles.
The factory standard bodies used many panels from the Cadet but the radiator was now sloped back slightly and the filler cap was under the bonnet. All the windows used "Triplex" toughened glass. The chassis was also supplied to external coachbuilders.
The launch price for the standard saloon was GBP195 allowing Vauxhall to advertise a 12hp car for less than GBP200. Unusually, the 14hp ASX was sold for the same price and became by far the better seller.
1933 was also the first year all GM vehicles were installed with optional vent windows which were initially called “No Draft Individually Controlled Ventilation” later renamed "Ventiplanes" which the patent application was filed on Nov. 28, 1932. It was assigned to the Ternstedt Manufacturing Company, a GM subsidiary that manufactured components for Fisher Body.

### Body types

* Standard Saloon (12 hp only)
* De Luxe Saloon (by Vauxhall) with sliding roof and no-draught ventilation
* Fixed Head Coupé (by Vauxhall) 2-door with sliding roof and no-draught ventilation

#### Special Coachwork

* 2-seater with Dickey (by Duple)
23,294 cars were produced.

## Model DY/DX

The model was revised in 1935 and given new designations although they kept the same engines. The chassis was re-designed with Dubonnet type independent front suspension enabling the engine to be moved forwards.
A revised version appeared in 1937 with a curved radiator grille and pressed-steel wheels replacing the wire-spoked ones.
20,026 of the earlier cars and 39,537 of the post 1937 version were produced.
