Son of Summer of SOA - Will cloud displace Enterprise IT?
The reduced pace of the summer seems to bring out the morbid curiosity in some of the best and brightest of SOA analysis. Last summer, if you recall, SOA began its death march, which culminated at the end of the year (when things are really really slow) with the pronouncement that "SOA is dead…"
Then, there was a lot of soul searching – serious and otherwise – which culminated in … well it really didn't culminate in anything particular. Just a fair consensus that news of SOA's death was greatly exaggerated.
So, recently, the analysis crew chose its words carefully as it debated the notion that cloud computing might lead to the "imminent demise" of enterprise IT. You can read about it at BriefingsDirect. There was no strong consensus yet that IT was dead. But it's just summer.

The culmination of years of aero engineering and a no-compromise pursuit of speed with control, Fuji storms onto the aero road market with Transonic: a carbon race bike that is precision personified – allowing riders to unleash unparalleled speeds without restraint.
Fuji not only harnessed what it learned developing its Track Elite and Norcom Straight in the wind tunnel into a road bike every bit as formidable, but also upped the ante in an already-prodigious road lineup. Stiffer, Lighter, and now FASTER.
With aerodynamics conquered and a new potential for unprecedented speed, Fuji focused next on unwavering control to instill the Transonic's riders with the confidence to push the boundaries of fast.
Easy-to-service and user-friendly might not be top priorities for some brands, but Fuji engineers know it's these thoughtful details that matter most.

Technology in the Finance Industry:
Banks and financial institutions have been severely impacted by the debacle of sub-prime lending rates. In order to get its operations back on track and build a reliable yet robust financial enterprise architecture, there is a huge potential for technology partners to carve out effective solutions.

Challenges in the Finance Industry
Some of the challenges that were presented to Good Work Labs are mentioned below:
1. Centralized Information
News analysis, market performance, expert advice and advertised reports offer disparate source of information to the investor. With such a huge plethora of information and knowledge resources it is bound to get confusing. The need is to simplify the knowledge absorption process through a unified channel that works exclusively for the investor's benefit.
2. Futures options
A strong predictive analysis model goes a long way in building trust upon a hosen investment vehicle for the investor
3. Transparent reporting
The curiosity of the mind ensures that the investor needs a simplified yet holistic view of his/her investment. This gives the investor to track performance and decide upon a future course of action (buy, hold or sell)
4. Secure payment
Any and every investment needs to access the investor funds. There is a growing need for a secure channel that guarantees glitch-free electronic transmission of funds from his/her bank/finance source to the appropriate investment vehicle.

Hotel Industry in China
Recently, I've been reading the Hotel Year Book 2013 published by Ecole hôtelière de Lausanne. The report mentioned about several insights about Chinese hotel industry in 2013 which I want to share with you.
Firstly, a historic challenge for Chinese hotel industry has been its slow average daily room rates relative to other international markets and the quality of hotel service. However, the government is now trying to shift the economy to a more consumption-led model, and this encompasses efforts to increase wages. At the same time, vast sections of China's middle class are reaching a point where they have acquired apartments, electronics, cars and other tangible goods – so spending is likely to move to more intangible items such as travel and leisure.
Secondly, the hotel business in China is not just about filling the rooms. Several international hotel chains beginning to shift the focus to food & beverage, which has a higher profit margin. Other companies are increasingly focusing very on hot spring and spa, and recreational and entertainment facilities targeted towards local residents as well.
Thirdly, one of the obstacles for hotel industry in China is the Golden week which forces the entire nation to go on vacation during the exact same weeks of the year. However, this is probably going to change in the next few years. With the insatiable and growing appetite of consumers and their capability to choose going vacation any time of the year, there will be a huge boost in hotel industry.

- 100 Things I Learned from Investing (26-50)
- 100 Things I Learned from Investing (51-75)
- 100 Things I Learned from Investing (75-100)
76. Excellent communication skill is one of the most obvious indicator of a good manager. Senior management needs to clearly describe their vision to people they work with. You may be assuming that they must have this basic skill when they got promoted to the job, but you would be surprised that this hasn't been true for a lot of companies' top management. Jim Ballsilie from RIM is a good example.
77. Everyone makes mistakes, including the best management. Management who fail to mention or apologize for their own mistake could indicate ego problems.
78. Google Trends could help measure the public perception (I call that "Hippiness") of a specific range of product. Great growth story could be discovered here before the wall street analyst find them.
79. In the process of researching a company, it is also important to check out every single competitors it has. Sometimes you might find better opportunities in the same industry.
80. For small investors, "cigar butt" type of value investing has even more problems – You have no control over the management on how to realize the existing intrinsic value. Rate of return decreases over time as you wait for the market or the management to realize the intrinsic value of the share you bought. That "free last-puff cigar butt" is on someone else's hand, and you have to sit there and wait for it. Meanwhile, you may be missing out some of the better stuff around the corner.
81. Do not place bets just because they have good management. "When a manager with a great reputation meets a company with a bad reputation, it is the company whose reputation stays intact." – Buffett
82. Ask yourself – can you afford to lose all the money you are going to invest overnight? If your answer is no, you better keep that money in a savings account.
83. Write down a list of events that would trigger an immediate "sell" in your portfolio when those events occur.
84. I have my own set of "KPIs" to measure the performance of certain management in different businesses. They are rated on their integrity, intelligence and effort. Promise/delivery ratio, Quarterly to Quarterly financial forecast accuracy, communication skills, compensation/annual profit growth ratio, shareholder friendliness are some of the examples.
85. Be very careful when there is a "disruptive innovation" that changes everything in an industry. It doesn't apply to the technology industry only. HMV, Blockbuster, Barnes and Noble are solid example of what technological change could do to traditional retail businesses.
86. I look at my list of "to buy list" every day and I keep a minimal rate of return requirement in mind. I wait for the price to drop below a point that would secure me a reasonable rate of return before I consider putting my money in.
87. Honestly evaluate how much time you could put into investment research and analysis. Time constrain the amount of stocks you could carefully go through, and it could hurt your rate of return. Years ago I read from a hedge fund manager that if you can't do this full time with at least $1 MM invested capital, it's better to just buy an index fund and spend the time to develop your career instead. I agree to a certain point, but I also enjoy the learning process. I believe the experience, knowledge and fun I gained over time is the intrinsic return besides money. These returns actually compound overtime, along with my money.
88. Contrary to Buffett, I do read analysis pieces from different Wall Street analysts. I isolate their opinions and look for facts they are presenting, and then filter out the facts that doesn't matter in the long run. Given that they are hired to cover a certain industry and stocks full time, chances are that they have probably spent more time on digging information about the stock than I do. If you think you know better, (either you spent full time researching the company or you have been following the company for years) their reports tend to repeat what each other say and they could be a waste of time.
89. A good real estate agent could walk into a house and know roughly how much it would be sold for. They never needed a calculator with them. That's because they have seen countless similar houses transactions and understand how each attribute affect the valuation of a house. As a business investor, it would be beneficial to have gone through a lot of business to develop that "sixth sense" over time.
90. Read widely to look for growth stories: Do you know how much people love their Chipotle and the secret chipotle sauce? Have you read that lululemon fan blog? Do you know about OPI nail polish? How about that funny looking Croc Rx shoes that are all over hospitals?
91. Look for successful domestic business that has a plan for overseas expansion – Another growth potential.
92. Cost control should not be done during the bad times only – Management should be looking for ways to cut cost every day, and mention how they are doing it in every annual report.
93. Shareholder meetings rarely give me any additional insight into a business, but if it's happening near where you live, attend for the opportunity to ask questions on your mind. Bonus if they serve good snacks/drinks or give out samples of their products.
94. I don't try to predict what the world's economy will be like in the next quarter or so. A lot of times, economy is affected by the decision made by a small group of people, and predicting their decisions is almost like predicting when a cat will lick its tail again.
95. Look outside the buy and hold strategy. If you have the extra time, engaging in arbitrage or special situation deals could churn out just as much cash as what a business could.
96. Use technology to help you filter through different news and data. In the Old School Value Best Investment Sites Magazine, it includes several useful content organization sites that helps you to efficiently consume contents.
97. You could make a bad decision and get a great outcome (like a lottery ticket), and you could also get a bad outcome with an intelligent decision.
98. Short term price volatility measures the psychological fluctuations (in another word, craziness) of the market, not risk as we define it.
99. Never recommend or even talk about specific stocks to your relative or friends, for their own good. Besides the possibility of getting all the blame for a bad idea, people might just take your good idea and execute in a bad way. Try to share the philosophy instead.
100. At the end of the day, it's all business. If there is a short term trade that could guarantee a 1% return on my investment in 5 mins, with no to minimal downside risk that I could fully understand, I will certainly participate. Do not let certain framework hold you back from different opportunities to make money. In 1997, Buffett tried to corner the silver community market by buying up 130 million ounce of silver. It was a one-time trade, a short term opportunity, on a commodity of which its real value is based on the supply and demand of the market. It's hard to fit this into the value investing model for typical businesses, but it made Berkshire handsome returns.
A New Series is Coming
That ends this series on 100 things learned from investing. Looking back, Daniel and I have certainly made a lot of mistakes and learned many lessons but all of which are helping us grow as better investors. I hope you have found these lessons valuable and worth considering.
But stay tuned – a new series is coming up!

I can't decide if it's too early to start Valentine's Day activities, since my original plan was just to do a few activities here and there starting in February. However, the kiddos are very much ready for something new. When I do a "theme" it is not the only thing we do. We still continue reading poetry and living books, we still play regular math and literacy games, and we try to do nature study. The kids just find it interesting to find a treat mixed into their regular activities, so every few days we do something based around our theme.
These came out of a Shapes workbook from the Dollar Tree. Elliott can do both...we'll see what Emory wants to do. ;)
This page is also from the Shapes workbook, but it is just circling the hearts, so Emory can do this one too.
An easier one for Emory, this pattern block pattern is from Confessions of a Homeschooler.
For Emory, he can do 1:1 correspondence with the above game when we're finished, but until then, I just give him a pile of the counting blocks...no objective!
Our red play-doh from Christmas is still going strong, so I changed out our winter accessories and add in these...heart shaped cookie cutters, a cookie stamp with hearts, and the letters to spell love. I was going to include the rest of the letters for heart too, until I realized the set was missing a T. There are two L's instead. Bummer!
Fine Motor Skills
While many of these activities encourage fine motor development, this one is specifically for Emory. He pulled all these pieces together out of our Valentine's sensory tub and was doing this on our own.
We also have our Valentine's Day Sensory Tub which the boys have enjoyed so far. Some of the skills we can cover with it are sorting, patterning, counting and even simple spelling/reading with the blocks.
Book Basket
We don't have a lot of Valentine's themed books, so I pulled out other books that are related to hearts and love.

Their beer selection is lengthy (and tasty), and they've got all the fine British staples, like fish and chips, bangers and mash and shepherd's pie. That's all fine and good. But I'm going back again and again for the fried pickles.
Have you ever had a fried pickle? It's heavenly. I'm not the biggest pickle person, but somehow, when encased in spicy batter, the pickle is elevated to fabulousness. It retains the sour crispness, but with an added bonus of spicy bread. SOOOO good. Ashleigh and I went last night and shared drinks with a plate of fried pickles and I tell you, that is the secret to a good friendship: beer, Captain Morgans and Ginger Ales, and a plate of fried pickles.
If fried pickles aren't your thing, the restaurant is still pretty nice. It has a very nice patio area with fire pits where Sean and I spied too men sharing beers and a game of chess on a Sunday afternoon.

Following last year's smash hit production of The Secret Garden, York Theatre Royal takes a fresh look at another children's classic in this summer's family show, Arthur Ransome's Swallows and Amazons, from July 26 to August 28.
Damian Cruden, in his final production after 22 years as York Theatre Royal's artistic director, co-directs the production with artistic associate John R Wilkinson.
"I'm looking forward to working on this script with a talented group of artists, that my last show is for families seems appropriate," said Damian, whose past family shows for York Theatre include the Railway Children, the Wind in the Willows and Peter Pan.
The story tells of the Walker and Blackett children's adventurous school holiday in the Lake District as they set sail for adventure. The Swallows – John, Susan, Titty and Roger – sail to Wildcat Island and meet Nancy and Peggy, the self-proclaimed Amazon Pirates, and the dastardly Captain Flint.
Ransome's story has been adapted for the stage by Helen Edmundson whose other literary adaptations include Anna Karenina, Mill On the Floss, War and Peace, Coram Boy and Therese Raquin.
The production features music by Neil Hannon, from the Divine Comedy.
The production marks a homecoming for cast member Laura Soper, a former member of York Theatre Royal Youth Theatre who has appeared in main house productions The Legend of King Arthur and Peter Pan, both directed by Damian Cruden.
She trained at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. Swallows and Amazons marks her debut at York Theatre Royal as a professional actor.
Laura said: "Being in Swallows & Amazons feels really special – it's my first professional role at the theatre. The book is one of my absolute favourites which is one reason I am so excited to being doing it. I just love everything about it. We go to the Lake District every year on holiday with my family so I just feel so connected to the story.
"I really like how it doesn't patronise children. It gives them the time and space to tell their story and I love how Arthur Ransome takes it so seriously. For them it's a big deal, a proper adventure however childish and silly it may seem from an adult point of view."
Swallows and Amazons

How to handle a pet emergency
If your pet has an emergency, the last thing you want to do is scramble to figure out what to do and where to go. If your pet gets attacked by another animal or has a seizure, you don't want to waste precious minutes Googling your nearest emergency veterinarian.
Here are four things you should know now so that if the unthinkable does happen, you're ready.
1. The location of the nearest emergency veterinary hospital.
Whether you're at home, traveling, or just going to the dog park, you should know where the nearest 24-hour emergency veterinarian is located. Keep the number to your local hospital saved in your phone, or save the hospital's website to your phone browser's homepage.
Anyone in charge of caring for your pet should have the address and contact information, too, as well as information for your pet's regular vet.
2. Signs of a less-obvious emergency.
Some emergencies are obvious – your cat gets bitten by a dog, or you trip over your dog and fall on his leg. But not all emergencies are easy to recognize, such as choking, heatstroke, an insect bite, or poisoning. Take your pet to an emergency room if he is experiencing:
- Pale gums
- Rapid breathing
- Weak or rapid pulse
- Change in body temperature (for dogs and cats, normal temperature is between 100˚ and 102˚ F)
- Difficulty standing
- Apparent paralysis
- Reluctance to put weight on a particular paw
Some symptoms exist in a gray area – should you take your pet in, or is it a 24-hour bug? Your pet should also see a doctor if he has:
- Bleeding that won't stop
- A seizure
- Loss of consciousness
- Excessive vomiting
- Blood in the stool
3. How to approach an injured pet.
Approach your pet slowly and talk to him in a soothing voice. If he is injured or seriously sick, he might become aggressive or act differently than usual. If your pet is acting aggressively, wrap him in a large blanket to stabilize him while moving. The blanket also helps protect you from being bitten or scratched while you move him.
As long as your pet isn't overheated or having trouble breathing, it is OK to apply a muzzle during the ride to the hospital. If you don't have a muzzle, a bandana, extra-large rubberband, or thick rope (nothing thin enough to cut into the skin) will work until you get to the hospital. Remove it as soon as you are done moving your pet.
You can purchase a pet stretcher to always keep on hand, but if you don't have one, use a blanket or sheet. Be prepared to put in a little elbow grease, especially if your dog is a large breed. If you cannot move the dog on your own, don't. Defer to your emergency veterinarian's instructions and call someone for help.
4. How to administer light first aid on the way to the hospital.
Hopefully, your pet isn't so hurt that he can't make it to the hospital, but in some instances, you may need to step in. For a bleeding wound, for instance, you should elevate the injury and apply pressure to it.
If your pet is choking and not breathing, do a finger sweep to try to dislodge the item: use a hooked finger to sweep the throat for the foreign object and pull it out. However, if your pet is still breathing (even with difficulty), try to get him to the hospital without sticking your finger down his throat – you could lodge the item further down and block the remaining airway.
Ask your veterinarian to show you how to perform the Heimlich maneuver and CPR on your pet – it doesn't hurt to be prepared.
Bottom line: try to make it here or to the nearest 24-hour emergency hospital if your pet is injured or compromised in any way, even if you aren't sure it's a major emergency. At the end of the day, it's better to bring your pet in and find out you didn't need to, than not bring them in and find out you should have.
Did you know? Chisholm Trail Veterinary Clinic of Lockhart takes emergency after-hours calls, and emergency house calls for large animals. If you think you have an animal emergency on your hands, do not hesitate to head over, and call us on the way to our hospital.

Bleh. I'm tired, and I want to go to bed. It's only barely 8 pm, though.
I've been planning to start a conlang and try to fill it in using WordBuilder, and then blog about my progress here. Not entirely sure where that'll take me.

Tough to prosecute arms dealers without laws
In a trial that played out with far less fanfare than the "Lord of War" movie based on Viktor Bout's life, the public got a rare glimpse into the shadowy world of international arms brokering. Bout was convicted by a federal jury in New York this week on four counts of conspiracy, including conspiracy to provide material support to a foreign terrorist organization. Not among the counts against him, ironically, was his alleged involvement in nearly 20 years of transporting arms.
Bout, whose renowned ability to deliver weapons and goods to almost any region of the world earned him the nickname "merchant of death," has long maintained that his transportation services - though reprehensible - are not illegal. For some of his activities, he may be right.
As of last year, only 47 percent of the world's governments have reported that they have basic controls on the import of small arms and light weapons, such as AK-47s and shoulder-fired missiles. Only 52 governments have any form of controls on arms dealers operating in their countries, and of that, less than half have criminal or monetary penalties associated with illegal gun running.
The consequences of these kinds of legal vacuums can be deadly. Because arms dealers can relatively easily exploit weak national control systems, arms continue to flow to perpetrators of mass atrocities, enabling widespread violence against civilians and sustaining conflicts much longer than they would normally run. In 2004, the Department of Treasury barred Bout from doing business with U.S. citizens and companies because of his association with former Liberian President Charles Taylor.
The United States has a relatively comprehensive law governing the activities of arms brokers, but if an arms dealer circumvents U.S. legal jurisdiction, officials have few tools at their disposal to stop them. An opportunity to fix this, however, is looming.
Treaty negotiations scheduled at the United Nations this summer could deliver a comprehensive Arms Trade Treaty that aims, in part, to stop the flow of conventional weapons into the hands of perpetrators of mass atrocities. An effective treaty would help tackle the problem of arms dealing by requiring countries to adopt national laws that control arms entering and leaving their borders. Now is the time for the international community to come together and stop all merchants of death.

(this entry covers a few days. I met a girl from england out there, and diary writing took a bit of a back seat!!!)
Thurs 19-02-04
The train didn't make any time up overnight, and as a result, i missed my connection to Mysore, which meant that I had to stay in Bangalore for a couple of nights. I was in a quite nice hotel, so no worries. Did things like change money and get laundry done. Also got a malaria tablet stuck in my throat, which tasted as though I had been sucking on a rusty nail
Friday 20-02-04
Went for a walk down MG street, which hardly looks like it's in India at all. Lots of modern shops, and wait for it… proper roads!! I felt quite out of place. Went on a tour. First stop was the Visvesvaraya Industrial and Technological museum, which was a hands on place with displays from the dinosaurs to space exploration. We drove past several impressive looking government buildings, and then to Tipu Sultans Palace, which i have to say, was a bit of a waste of time. The Lalbagh Botanical gardens were pretty, and we had an hour or so there, so i found some shade and read my book After that, they took us to a handicraft emporium, which i wandered around briefly in disinterest. Then went to see a couple of temples, and caught a rickshaw back to the hotel.
Sat 21-02-04
Checked out of the room, and caught a rickshaw to the train station. Miraculously, the fare was the same price as the pre-paid rickshaw to the hotel, and the driver used the meter without being asked! The waits for the trains would have been unbearable without cigarettes, but hey kids, thats not an excuse to start smoking!! (2006- have been quit for over a year!!)
I worked out a rough plan for the following days, which went completely tits up.
After that, i became a bit rubbish at keeping my diary. Basically, quite a lot happened, but only I need to know about it, and not you!!!
Some additional highlights were… A rickshaw driver being so stoned he kept asking me to drive the rickshaw, random people trying to sell me fish, a dead body washed up on the shoreline, tonnes of albinos, transvestites and midgets. I ended up eventually in Chennai (madras). Sorry to miss out my final 10 days, but that stuff is personal to me and no one else!

Abby (left) & Pepper (right) had a blast the day I took this photo. But it isn't always fun and games with these two. They fight like cats and dogs, you know what I mean.
Abby is the dominate female. The other dogs know this, and don't dispute it. Abby is also very, very moody. And jealous, man is she jealous.
Pepper, on the other hand, is the sweetest dog ever. She never picks a fight, and even tries to stay away from Abby. After a fight, Pepper is the first to go to Abby and lick all of her wounds. Eventually, Abby will lick on Pepper too.
The fights first started when we would let the dogs out, and Pepper would bump Abby or just look at her the wrong way. Seriously! We started letting Abby out first, and holding Pepper back so she wouldn't bump her or anything. The last time this happened we let them out at like two in the morning to go to the bathroom, and the fight was on. That certainly woke us up! McD ran outside sporting nothing but undies to break them up. It was quite a sight!
The fighting stopped for a little while, but then started up again when we would drive in the driveway. They run like crazy dogs when we drive in, and Pepper won't even have to bump Abby. Abby flat out starts a fight with her, and Pepper won't back down. I don't blame her. In order to stop the fighting, we started leaving one of them in the house while we were gone. It worked! I thought we had everything settled.
But, then…
This morning, as I was sitting here writing about something completely different, I let the dogs out to use the bathroom. They were fine. I watched them for a few minutes. Abby had gone one way, and Pepper the other. I came back to the computer, sat down and got busy. After about thirty minutes I decided to check on them. I looked out all of the windows and didn't see them. I assumed they would be sunning and I didn't want to disturb them by opening the door. I walked to the kitchen to look out the back door, and there they were. They were bloody and wanting in the house. They both limped in, and went to their favorite places.
This is going to be a much longer post than I had expected. Sorry.
After looking both of them over, I called McD. I told him what had happened, that I didn't know what started it, and that I was going to have to take Pepper to the vet. I asked him what we should do about them. He answered, "I don't know."
I called the vet, and they can't get Pepper in until five o'clock this evening. She is in a lot of pain, and that is saying something because this little one has a pretty high pain tolerance.
I went to check Abby over again, and have found that she has some pretty good cuts on her as well.
The decision I have to make is this – what to do. Do I put Abby down? She is the one that is causing all of the problems. Obviously, nothing else is working.
Any thoughts?
edited to say – I don't want everyone to think Abby is a horrible dog, she isn't. She can be loving.

BRIDGMAN, Mich., July 6, 2016 – Indiana Michigan Power's Cook Nuclear Plant Unit 2 was taken off-line at 12:38 a.m. today when an expansion joint bellows on a Moisture Separator Reheater ruptured. That component provides non-radioactive steam to the low pressure turbines. The expansion joint bellows is roughly 48 inches in diameter. The rupture released pressurized, high-temperature steam to the surrounding area causing damage to an adjacent Turbine Building exterior wall. No one was in the area at the time and there were no injuries.
An Unusual Event (UE) was declared at 12:50 a.m. due to the unanticipated event. It was terminated at 2:07 a.m. A UE is the least serious emergency plan classification. All appropriate notifications to local, state and federal officials were made. During the manual shutdown by operators there were no complications and all equipment responded appropriately.
Cook Unit 1 remains at 100 percent power. Causal analysis and repair estimates are under development. AEP does not release return-to-service information for generation units.

2012 Ch. la Mission Haut-Brion, Pessac-Léognan
Red | For laying down | Code: 17180 | 2012 | France > Bordeaux > Pessac-Leognan | Cab.Sauvignon Blend | Medium-Full Bodied, Dry | 15.0 % alcohol
Other châteaux wanted an extra fortnight of summer in the 2012 vintage: the suburban vineyards of Ch. Haut-Brion and la Mission Haut-Brion, sheltered from much of the worst of the weather, seemed to have achieved it. Both are among the success stories of the vintage, but to my taste the elegance and subtlety of la Mission just shaded the annual battle.
Simon Berry, Chairman
Scores and Reviews
The Wine Advocate
Wine Spectator
The Wine Advocate - Tasted blind at the Southwold 2012 tasting, the 2012 La Mission Haut-Brion showed brilliantly. It has an intense, floral bouquet with rose petals and strawberry preserve, hints of sous-bois and tobacco gently unfolding in the glass, gaining more earthiness as it aerates in the glass. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin, broad and spicy with hints of bell pepper suggesting high quality Cabernet Franc. It fans out gloriously with a sustained tertiary finish that completes what is a wondrous La Mission Haut-Brion from Jean-Philippe Delmas and his team. Tasted January 2012.
Neal Martin - 28/10/2016
Jancis - Aromatic and a little lean but very sophisticated. Lots of energy here. Extremely ramrod straight with lots of fine tannin. A very long-term wine. Super demanding with its heavy charge of tannins. Still quite inky and ambitious in the extreme. One of the more youthful wines of the vintage. At the moment just a little stringy. Neat and certainly no blockbuster. 62% Merlot, 38% Cabernet Sauvignon.
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate #206 - Apr 2013
Wine Spectator - Features pure, racy, floral cassis, violet and bergamot notes, with a long, mineral-tinged finish. Very expressive, this represents a noticeable step up from the second wine in this vintage. Tasted non-blind.
James Molesworth, Wine Spectator, April 8 2013
Parker - The 2012 La Mission Haut-Brion, which represents 41% of the total production, is a blend of 62% Merlot and the rest Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Lots of tobacco leaf, forest floor, underbrush and red as well as black fruit aromas jump from this aromatic, seductive, open-knit La Mission. Medium to full-bodied, round, generous, lush and flattering to taste, even at this young age, it is built along the stylistic lines of the 2001 or 1999. Drink it over the next 15-20 years.
Like its bigger sibling, the second wine, the 2012 La Chapelle de la Mission, was the result of a harvest that occurred between September 17 and October 9. (Keep in mind that the micro-climate of Haut-Brion and La Mission Haut-Brion is essentially within a highly developed suburb of Bordeaux.)
Robert Parker - Wine Advocate #206 - Apr 2013
Decanter - Chateau La Mission Haut-Brion 2012 shows fine depth of colour and has the earthy/Graves nose of La Chapelle but a better expression of fruit, very polished and ripe due to 62% Merlot, but time is needed to dominate the fine but rather firm tannins.
Steven Spurrier - Decanter - April 2013

The Grape
Cabernet Sauvignon lends itself particularly well in blends with Merlot. This is actually the archetypal Bordeaux blend, though in different proportions in the sub-regions and sometimes topped up with Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot.
In the Médoc and Graves the percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend can range from 95% (Mouton-Rothschild) to as low as 40%. It is particularly suited to the dry, warm, free- draining, gravel-rich soils and is responsible for the redolent cassis characteristics as well as the depth of colour, tannic structure and pronounced acidity of Médoc wines. However 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wines can be slightly hollow-tasting in the middle palate and Merlot with its generous, fleshy fruit flavours acts as a perfect foil by filling in this cavity.
In St-Emilion and Pomerol, the blends are Merlot dominated as Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to ripen there - when it is included, it adds structure and body to the wine. Sassicaia is the most famous Bordeaux blend in Italy and has spawned many imitations, whereby the blend is now firmly established in the New World and particularly in California and Australia.
The Region
In 1986 a new communal district was created within Graves, in Bordeaux, based on the districts of Pessac and Léognan, the first of which lies within the suburbs of the city. Essentially this came about through pressure from Pessac-Léognan vignerons, who wished to disassociate themselves from growers with predominately sandy soils further south in Graves.
Pessac-Léognan has the best soils of the region, very similar to those of the Médoc, although the depth of gravel is more variable, and contains all the classed growths of the region. Some of its great names, including Ch. Haut-Brion, even sit serenely and resolutely in Bordeaux's southern urban sprawl.
The climate is milder than to the north of the city and the harvest can occur up to two weeks earlier. This gives the best wines a heady, rich and almost savoury character, laced with notes of tobacco, spice and leather. Further south, the soil is sandier with more clay, and the wines are lighter, fruity and suitable for earlier drinking.
Recommended Châteaux: Ch. Haut-Brion, Ch. la Mission Haut-Brion, Ch. Pape Clément, Ch Haut-Bailly, Domaine de Chevalier, Ch. Larrivet-Haut-Brion, Ch. Carmes Haut-Brion, Ch. La Garde, Villa Bel-Air.

Westport was a spaceport on Coruscant, located near Kishi and a modest distance southwest of the Jedi Temple.
Westport began construction in the year 25 BBY, and opened in 24 BBY. Shortly before the Clone Wars, it saw a 6,000% increase in departures from the planet due to the rising Separatist Crisis. A few years later, within hours of Ando's secession from the Republic, 500 Aqualish living on Coruscant booked tickets for departure from Westport.
After the Yuuzhan Vong War, Westport was rebuilt and installed new landing platforms, which were made especially for escort carriers. In 40 ABY, the Second Galactic Civil War brought an increase to the spaceport's arrivals from Corellia to Coruscant due to the full-scale war which was about to take place.
Of the known spaceports on Coruscant, Westport appeared to be the most successful in the long run, as Newport went out of business, and Eastport was destroyed by the Yuuzhan Vong and never rebuilt.

For the last couple of years I have made an effort to make at least one of my niece's Christmas gifts. In 2011, I used mixbook.com to create a one of a kind story for her.
In 2012, she opened up a suitcase to find a plethora of dress up clothes.
This year I brainstormed on her latest hobbies to come up with a gift to remember. She has always loved drawing and coloring, but lately her creativity is really coming through. A few months back, I received a lesson in how to draw a fantastical insect she called a "Daisy Lime." Who knew!
The kids table and shelf in the craft room is fully stocked with paper and markers, but at the rate she is going, the supplies dwindle quite quickly. So I set out to make Ella an "Art Box" for Christmas: one part trolling the aisles of Michaels, one part clicking through Amazon.com and one part trip to Target for the bin.
I found a pad of paper suited for watercolor paints and a How to Draw Monsters book on Amazon.com that I thought could help her work on her concentration skills down the road. A value pack of 50 washable markers, modeling clay, a set of paintbrushes and watercolor paints will help her explore different mediums.
I put together a pack of pom poms, googly eyes and pipe cleaners for potential 3D effects. I also added feathers and stickers, glue sticks and an 8-pack of colorful tape ordered from Amazon.
Lastly: her canvases. Michaels had packages of foam cut outs and cardboard "paper dolls" that were begging for decoration. I went through my own stock of scrapbook paper and filled a ziplock gallon bag with odds and ends for her projects.
The most homemade portion of this gift were two white tees I picked up in sizes boys' medium: much larger than Ella and her sister. Using fabric markers I wrote "My Art Shirt" on one and "Meant to Get Messy" on the other.
After the frenzy of Christmas had subsided, the kids let me throw the shirts on them as we headed up to the craft room the next day to dive into the art box.
Ella's masterpiece!
What do you do with your kids' art? I love the ideas I see on Pinterest like scanning and shrinking them down into one giant print.

Or scanning them into a bound book for each year.

Some great options are out there to save the memories without filling an entire closet, prolific as children tend to be. Happy drawing!

This is one of many pieces of gear listed in a 2007 Computer Music feature on Venetian Snares.more
The SP202 can be seen during the entire video (more clearly 3:04)more
When I started making electronic music I was mainly using software like Cakewalk, Impulse Tracker, Rebirth as well as any additional freeware I could find. The first hardware I bought was the Yamaha CS1x and Boss Dr. Sample 202 plus some random FX pedals. My family wasn't exactly rich so I had to work within my limitations. I think this had a lot to do with how I approach making music to this day. Now I still have a quite simple set-up using a Macbook Pro running Ableton Live and some MIDI Controllers. I don't really use many plug-ins apart from a few go-to's like Michael Norris' SoundMagic Spectral plugins and Native Instruments Reaktor + Massive. For the most part I've found that the built-in Ableton plugins are sufficient.more

"The Dr. Sample and ES1 are really rudimentary samplers, but for me they really work live because, being aimed at DJs and so on, they are table-top devices with everything lighting up clearly and there being no intensive menus to scroll through. Everything is right up front. The Boss is almost like a toy, run off batteries and with a simple built-in mic. The fidelity is not that good, but I actually think it has a cool sound."more
"Using just an eight-track cassette multitracker, a Boss SP202 Dr Sample and a few cheap microphones, Nosdam looped and phased pop and electronic samples with cuts of moving furniture, telephone conversations, film clips and even a domestic blender set to 'liquefy'."more
really handy machine, portable, battery time might be a bit low for long use so for studio use an adapter is recommended. microphone is great to record stuff with too. banks C - D pretty useful only for backups of A and B. for sounds and recordings on the C D you cannot do much..so the internal stuff is better. great that you can use more effects at once too. only thing I miss is using both reverse and effects, but no big deal. design is super slick. great machine! (oh yeah and the lo-fi is 100% sick)
the original 202 sampler was so fun...

The Boss Dr Sample 202 was supposedly designed for loops and DJ's on a budget. It's a big brick of plastic! It offers four low quality sample rates, from 31 to about 4 kHz, providing 20 to 260 seconds of sample time via built-in microphone, Mic or Line inputs. Each Pad to which you assign your samples can have user-selectable sampling rates in order to maximize sample time. It has six built-in effects including Pitch Shift, Filter 1 & 2, Time Stretch, Delay, and Ring Modulation.All really fun to play with! An innovative BPM function calculates the BPM from the sample length for easy loop/BPM syncing. The sampler can be battery powered, and originally came with lots of sampled loops and one-shots to get you going.
This was always a fun and easy to use sampler! I once even sampled one of our friends talking in their sleep with it! I loved that it was portable and easy to use. You can still find them on Ebay every now and then but dont count on much sample storage (even with the hard to find 5v SD card). I really liked that you could run any audio into it via RCA connections and use the filters and such. Fun to have around if you can find it for cheap! Not a bad little sampler at the time it was issued.

Review The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 2 :
Poor Finale. Probably worst of the 4
I watched the Hunger Games and Catching Fire movies before reading the books. The story was so captivating that I had to read the books. Mockingjay part 1 was already a slight disappointment because they dragged out the final book into 2 parts. As such, I already didn't have high expectations for part 2.
But even my low expectations were not met. In my opinion this is the weakest of the 4 movies in the franchise.
Firstly, the movie trailer practically summarizes the entire movie with all the major scenes.
Secondly, the pacing was all over the place. Sometimes it felt too rushed. At other times it was just too slow. At least in part 1, the pacing was much more even.
Thirdly, this is one instance where being true to the book did this movie no favors. Some storyline or dialogue changes from the book might have helped.
Fourthly and I think most importantly, I felt that the movie was not made with as much care and attention as Catching Fire or even Mockingjay part 1. To me, the editing was not done well and the actors' didn't give me the impression of full commitment.
Lastly, I think that Jennifer Lawrence has totally outgrown this role. She is a good actress with great emotional expression however I just could not emphatize with Katniss here. In my opinion, she expressed Katniss best in The Hunger Games/Catching Fire. But here I just felt like a spectator, watching from a distance. This emotional disconnect together with a poorly edited and paced finale led to disappointment!
On the plus side, the special effects sequences were OK. And, the franchise has finally come to an end.

Lets get started
If you are using Opera Mini, Chrome, Firefox and the likes, click on the facebook profile picture of the person you want to tag, then go to your browser address bar and look for something that look like this among the web URL (web address) id=xxxxxxxxx, copy or write down the number in front of the "id=", we mean the "xxxxxxxxx".
If you are using UC Browser or UC Mini, you can navigate to the person profile picture, click and hold on the person image, then select Page Info among the list of options that appeared, under it you will see Link Info which is the profile picture URL link, you can simply look for the "id=xxxxxxxx" and copy it as highlighted in the image below.
After copying or writing it down, go to the comment or status update box where you want to tag the person name, and input it like this @[xxxxxxx:name], replace the "xxxxxxx" with the person ID you copied earlier, and "name" with the person's name. You can write any message after that and post it. Thats it, you've just tag a name.
Please Note: The "xxxxxxx" only contains number and not alphabet, make sure you only copy and insert the "xxxxxxxxx" in front of the "id=" in the profile picture URL link.
In addition, do you know you can post the flag of your favorite football team on facebook? Yes you can, here's how to do it. Simply enter the name of the team you want its flag to show up like this [[xxxxx]] replace the "xxxxx" with the team name and post it. E.g [[manu]] will be for Manchester United flag, [[arsenal]] for Arsenal flag, [[chelsea]] for Chelsea flag and so on. It works on mobile and PC, give it a try.

Within hours of the news, the AP reported "Gadhafi's Death Clears Way for Oil Exports," gleefully explaining that Gadhafi's death will result in lower oil prices the world over! Energy crisis is solved! Recession ended!
Remember the Left's incessant "No Blood for Oil" smear against President Bush for the "illegitimate" wars in Iraq? According to the Left, and rarely challenged by the Make-Believe Media, Bush's war in the Middle east was only about getting oil.
[youtube YRl4YLVW0b4]
But it's now 2011, not 2003. There's a new sheriff in town. Apparently, blood for oil is a good thing now. The radical leftwing media source The Guardian only reports how Obama has "chalked up Libya as another foreign policy success to place alongside the killing in May of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden" and, more ominously, that Gadhafi's bloody assassination signals a "prescription" for actions against other Middle East countries including Syria. Syrian President Assad may be wondering if he's on the White House Secret Assassination List. No mention of blood-for-oil. No mention of illegal regime change.
Still, it's one thing to strut around taking credit for killing a terrorist outlaw like Bin Ladin. Miscreant though he was, Gadhafi was the undisputed leader of a sovereign nation. Regime change, while sometimes necessary, should never be viewed flippantly. Thus the odd lack of dignity when the Administration's official response to Gadhafi's death comes as a snarky gloat from the Secretary of State quipping "We came, we saw, he died." Spiking the ball is one thing. Let's just hope we don't see Gadhafi's head sitting on an iron spike in front of the White House anytime soon.
Left undecided is whether the Make-Believe Media puppet masters will direct the Occupy Wall Street miscreants, Code Pink, ANSWER etc. to wake up the old chant "NO BLOOD FOR OIL" and march en masse on the White House to protest President Obama's war for Libya's oil.
I'm not holding my breath.

Visiting the palace you will have a clear idea of what a house of a noble Russian family was like. And surely be ready to meet Grigory Rasputin - one of the most mysterious personalities on the Russian historical stage of the beginning of the 20th century.
Tour to Yusupov palace lasts 2 hours and in this relatively short time you will:
- learn why its owners were scared of giving birth to sons and not daughters
- learn the story of the famous pearl Pelegrina, which belonged to the Yusupov family and disappeared from the palace after the October revolution
- see exhibition «Grigory Rasputin: Pages of Life and Death» with wax figures of Rasputin and his murders and learn why Felix Ysupov, the last owner of the palace murdered Rasputin at the cellar of the palace and why the strong poison that was used by Felix to kill Rasputin didn't work out.

I have a new grill. So I made steaks and they were groin grabbingly good.
We had home made fries and Rathbun's Blue Cheese Fondue with them. But use less milk than the recipe calls for. Fourme D'Ambert blue. But others will do.
So what do you drink before and with that?
A Martini. Dolin vermouth. Death's Door gin.

And probably some sort of brandy if I can get up the motivation to get off the couch and pour some.

Christmas ABC's: P
For the letter P we read the book The Pine Tree Parable . This is such a cute book with such a wonderful message. It is a story of giving and showing kindness and love to everyone no matter what. It is such a joy to share with my littles.
After we read our story we made little pine trees out of craft foam and sang some Christmas songs from a Mickey Mouse sing-along-book.

Brooklyns sock craze
Our little Brooklyn has the most bizarre love of socks. Since she was able to pull off her socks she has pulled them off and either cuddled with them for comfort or put them in her mouth to chew on. She also will pick up odd socks that she finds on the floor which can be kind of gross if she finds them in the dirty clothes hamper. I did not realize how often she is hauling a sock around until I was looking through our pictures the other day.

How to Make a Concrete Umbrella Stand
This warmed-up, splashy storage project from our #DIYDARE challenge will have you smiling in the rain
Filled with a bunch of umbrellas, this stand keeps the entryway clutter-free. Concrete is one of the ultimate outdoor materials, but it can look cold. To soften the aesthetics of this umbrella stand, we formed it using distressed wood, then added a greenish-blue color to make it really pop in an entryway.
Could you do better? It's your turn to make use of any scraps you've got lying around, supplemented, of course, by one or three trips to the home center, to build a project of your own.
We're calling it the #DIYDARE. Check out our examples to get inspired, then snap a photo and of your project and tag it #DIYdare when you post it to Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram. (HASH)Tag, you're it.
Add a Dye
As soon as her dad, Bob, told her the tub of concrete they were given molds like clay, 12-year-old Ivy started rolling up her sleeves.
Bob had worked with concrete in the past and knew the material could be embossed. "If we make a form from distressed plywood, it will give the concrete shape and imprint the grain," he said. Ivy was fine with that but still wanted to know what to make. "Leave it to me," said Bob, who proceeded to look for a circular saw.
Bob cut strips of plywood for the sides, and Ivy scrubbed out the grain with a wire brush before screwing the parts together to create the form. After mixing up a batch of concrete, Ivy, with a whole lot of glee, used it to pack the walls of the form. Once it cured, they applied a concrete dye.
"Who knew you could use concrete like clay?" Ivy said. "Who knew I could trick you into making an umbrella stand so we can clean up the front hall?" Bob answered back, with a grin.
