Chile vs Bolivia
Copa Am�rica at Slate Bar
Raquel Argando�a, major Chilean celeb, stopped by Slate Bar to check out the game.
In Chile, Argando�a is a famous actress, television host, and entrepreneur. She was Miss Chile 1975. In 1987 she played the leading role in a television mini-series based on the legendary life of Catalina del los R�os y Lisperguer, aka La Quintrala. So the legend goes "La Quintrala" had a cellar where she tortured her lovers to death. According to my aunt, she only murdered the ones that gabbed.
Join us tomorrow for more Copa Am�rica!
�Chilenos de coraz�n! Esperamos a toda la
Marea Roja de SF
Si no te vas al estadio, lleva a cada chilen@ que encuentres a gritar un gran C-H-I por La Roja ante Argentina en el primer partido de la Copa Am�rica Centenario. �Los esperamos!
Chileans love empanadas so much because there's nothing better than empanadas and wine. Ask any Chilean about their wine terrain, and they'll tell you that in Chile it's impossible to produce bad wine.
My father always told me that the priests kept the best Chilean wines in their church cellars... but California has a wide variety of excellent Chilean wines too.
Local Bay Area Chilean vintner Agust�n Huneeus and his wife Valeria own the bio-dynamically farmed Quintessa Winery in Napa Valley. In 1990 Huneeus went back to Chile taking his California vinti-cultural know-how to the coastal mountain ranges of the Casablanca Valley and developed the Veramonte vineyard.
Kappa Pisco Sour
Ever had a Pisco Sour? At Slate Bar, you'll get to try the best. Daniel Hyatt--Slate's classy bar manager, world traveler, and man of many exploits--is a virtuoso at preparing cocktails, and he really surprised me when it came to his hand at pisco sours. For our Copa Am�rica Party, Dan ordered Chile's Kappa Pisco. Kappa Pisco is a Chilean brandy made from Muscat grapes. Produced by the Marnier Lapostolle family, makers of Grand Marnier liqueur, the brand was recently acquired by Gruppo Campari.
Kappa Pisco is named after the Kappa Crucis star cluster--the famed Jewel Box of the Southern Cross--visible only in the southern hemisphere. With a name like that and the exquisite design of the bottle, I was sold before I even tasted this heavenly liqueur. kappapisco.com
Copa Am�rica 2016: Who's In, Who's Hurt and Who Could Win It
By ANDREW DAS JUNE 3, 2016
The Copa Am�rica Centenario, born in scandal and saved only by the promise of better behavior (and the presence of some pretty good soccer teams), kicks off Friday night when the United States faces Colombia in Santa Clara, Calif. The 16-team event is being played outside South America for the first time as a celebration of its 100th anniversary, and while a handful of top players have been left out or ruled out by injury, there is plenty left in the cupboard, including four of the eight quarterfinalists from the last World Cup. Here's what you need to know before the tournament begins. READ MORE...

La Copa Am�rica Centenario: todo lo que necesitas saber
By ANDREW DAS JUNE 3, 2016
La Copa Am�rica Centenario, que naci� en medio de un esc�ndalo y solo se salv� con la promesa de un mejor comportamiento (y la presencia de importantes selecciones de f�tbol), empezar� la noche de este viernes cuando el equipo de Estados Unidos se enfrente a Colombia en Santa Clara, California. Es la primera vez que el torneo sudamericano se juega fuera de la regi�n, y se hace como una celebraci�n de su cumplea�os n�mero 100. Y aunque un pu�ado de grandes jugadores no estar�n presentes por lesiones, a�n hay mucho que ver y disfrutar, incluyendo cuatro de los ocho equipos que llegaron a cuartos de final en el �ltimo mundial.

Coach Pedro Ordenes Chile
Coach Pedro Ordenes, beloved founder of Water World Swim, is known worldwide for his record-breaking swims. Pedro holds the world record for Alcatraz swim crossings - over 900. He is also the only person to complete a round trip crossing of the Beagle Channel between Chile and Argentina, in water temperatures averaging 39F and without a wet suit.
And in 1999, Pedro swam across the Strait of Magellan in 39.7F waters just to celebrate the new millennium.
If you can swim a mile in the pool you are ready to transition to open water! Our Swim With Pedro sessions are 1-hour swims and a great place to practice in the open water with coaches on hand, whether you're training for an event or getting into open water for the first time.
