If you are really aiming to be a volume producer this might be your chance. 989,000 acres, around half a million hectares, of land is for sale in Argentina. It is claimed that it is the biggest patch (patch?) of land ever for sale, but can that really be true? Were not some of the US states incorporated into the nation through sales for example?......

Tasting primeurs is not as difficult as it is sometimes said. Wines that young, just barely six months after harvest (tasted in April), can be wonderfully attractive: lots of fruit, hopefully ripe tannins and not too much wood (they have only spent six out of 18-24 planned months in barrel). But there are three things that are very difficult: having the stamina to go taste all the wines (no one can), being able to write something descriptive and useful about it (only a few does), and above all being able to make some judgement on the future of the wines you are tasting.

Statistics on the internet is always a bit tricky. First, there is not really and totally (totally!) accurate way to measure web statistics. Secondly, most statistics is "private" so you just have to trust those who talks about their stats. Or not. There is no way to check and no "official" numbers.

There are many different types of microbes (minuscule organisms) that contribute to making the wine into what it is. Many of them are desirable and even essential to the making of a wine. some only exist during the vinification process while other may survive into the bottled wine.

Many microbes have been studied in detail and it is well understood what they do, but for others their roles and effects are less clear. And in many cases it is not a clear cut answer if they are good or bad. Some may be both good and bad, depending on the situation and depending on your tastes. As often in the wine world things are not so easy as black and white. [...]

A few years back all EU countries agreed to a reform of the agricultural policies concerning the wine sector. One element was to abolish the existing system with planting rights, that decrees that a grower has to ask for strictly controlled planting rights from the authorities. One consequence is e.g. that a successful producer cannot expand his production, unless he can get some strictly limited planting rights. Earlier this year the AREV (an organisation that often is against progress and liberalisation in agricultural reforms) started a campaign to change the agreement to abolish the planting rights. They have managed to get the French minister of agriculture to support their view (France doesn't exactly have a history of supporting an open market for agriculture) as well as nine out of 26 countries, according to  Vitisphere.

To keep the system with planting rights would be, as far as we can see, primarily a way for the established producers to get protection from new competitors and from more dynamic producers. It would certainly be a step against a market economy and liberalisation – badly needed in the wine sector. And it would hardly benefit the consumer who can expect wine prices to be kept higher.

 At La Vigne they have published a few interviews with a few advocates of the planting rights, but they don't make us much wiser. At least it is apparent that their primary concern is not the wine consumer, or increasing the competitiveness among wine producers. Rather a question of keeping competition out.

-  An interview with Christian Paly from the CNAOC

-  Interview with Catherine Vautrin who has written a report on planting rights, that is certainly confusing (or totally confused), since she seems to mistake planting rights for the AOC geographical delimitations.

We certainly hope that the EU sticks with its agreement to abolish the planting rights and make the wine sector more open to competition, thus paving the way for a healthier wine industry with better conditions for the growers as well as for the consumers. Instead of a return to protectionism.Per and Britt, BKWinehttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-10941753.post-33454442010317055512011-06-08T09:44:00.000+02:002011-06-08T09:44:55.839+02:00Mas du Soleilla, La Clape, Languedoc Soleilla means sun in Occitan, the ancient language langue d'oc. Mas de Soleilla is beautifully situated, close to the sea, in the region of La Clape in Languedoc, not far from Narbonne. The climate is hot and dry, the soil very chalky and stony. The wines, which are both red and white, are generally of good quality. There are a total of 24 estates here in La Clape and all of them can find traces on their properties that go back to Roman times, "says owner and winemaker Peter Wildbolz at Mas de Soleilla.

Mas de Soleilla was created in 2002 by Peter and his wife Christa Derungs, both from Switzerland. Peter worked at the time already as a wine maker. When he found an isolated vineyard of 8 hectares in the middle of the garrigue in the La Clape area, he knew he wanted it. 2002 was the first vintage and now the surface has increased to 22 hectares.

The white wine in La Clape is made of a minimum of 50% of the unusual grape Bourboulenc. There are only 500 hectares world-wide of this grape and 300 of them are here in La Clape. Mas de Soleilla Sphinx Blanc is made with Bourboulenc and 30% Roussanne. It has a lovely aroma of flowers, apricot and a little honey and the oak is well balanced.

For the red wines Peter uses Syrah, Grenache and a little Mourvèdre. I particularly like Mas de Soleilla Les Chailles, a fresh, fruity wine with no oak ageing. Grenache dominates and the aroma of black berries, spices such as mint and rosemary and the good structure makes it a superb wine to combine with Mediterranean food. Mas de Soleilla Les Bartelles has been 15 months in oak barrels and here the Syrah grape is very evident on the nose. A complex, high class wine. Clot de l'Amandier is a blend of syrah and grenache. Full-bodied, with pleasant spicy aromas and with a good balance. A wine to be enjoyed with lamb, duck or game, says Peter.

The Swedish wine importer Hjo Grosshandel has published a dozen video interviews with a handful of the great and glorious chateau in Bordeaux. The interviews were done (it seems) at the primeur tastings earlier this year, and the main theme is the 2010 vintage. They have managed to get a quiet moment with the heads of each chateau and the result is exceptionally interesting (and ambitions) compared to much of what you see on wine online. Well done! You can see all the videos on  Hjo Grosshandel's YouTube channel. (And, yes, they are in English!). These are the chateaux they cover:

- Château Pontet-Canet
- Domaine de Courteillac
- Château Margaux
- Château Pichon Longueville comtesse de Lalande
- Château Cheval Blanc & Château d´Yquem
- Château Mouton Rothschild
- Château Beychevelle

The second biggest exporter is Spain with 16.9 Mhl, up 15%. France is in third place in the wine export league with 13.5 Mhl on export, which is an increase with 7%, just like Italy.Per and Britt, BKWinehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-10941753.post-47692303788930580442011-06-01T10:13:00.002+02:002011-06-01T10:13:51.017+02:00High Constantia, South AfricaAt High Constantia winemaker David van Niekerk makes an exceptional Cap Classic (sparkling wines made by the traditional method) that gets at least three years of ageing on its lees (sur latte). The grapes grow up in the mountains where the climate is fairly cool. Whole bunches are pressed and he gets 400 liters out of 1000 kilos of grapes. The wine is a Brut Zero, no dosage is added.

David has 14.5 hectares in total and makes also very interesting red wines. He likes to experiment. He looks for balance in the wines and he works hard to avoid harsh tannins. In order to emphasize the fruit, he is experimenting with unoaked Cabernet Sauvignon, which is unusual when it comes to high-quality cabernet. The region of Constantia is known for its Sauvignon Blanc and David's Sauvignon Blanc 2009 Nova Zonnestraat, with its lovely citrus flavors is a good example. In addition to MCC (Méthode Cape Classic), Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon, David also makes interesting Viognier and Cabernet Franc.Per and Britt, BKWinehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-10941753.post-3024426867776554472011-06-01T10:01:00.000+02:002011-06-01T10:01:19.531+02:00Welcome to the BKWine Brief nr 94, May 2011The competition in the wine world today is tough whatever the price segment. It means a lot to have your wines or your domaine mentioned in the press. But that means capturing the interest of a journalist. Just a short while ago it was the organic wines that got the headlines. Today it is not enough to be organic. You should be at least biodynamic as well or producer of so called natural wines. Given that these wines represent just a tiny fraction of the world wine production they get a lot of attention from the journalists. And what is the moral of this? Well, you should not be like everyone else. It is not enough to make a good, or even very good, affordable wine, you must also be different. Maybe putting up a solar panel on the roof or hiring a horse for ploughing every now and then will do the trick. Knowing how to promote you wine is as important as knowing when to harvest.

You will read more on organic wines (and the various cousins) here in the future, as well as on marketing.

And we also have to mention that it is urgent to act if you are interested our autumn wine tours:

- Bordeaux, October 5-9
- Burgundy October 19-23

Register NOW! Don't wait. Otherwise it might be too late.

And quite a few wine producers and wines to taste too! We have written a short story on what we do on that kind of trip, based on the Three Classics we did in April: visit to a few champagne houses, with a delicious lunch at one of them (with some '04, '03, '02, and '00 for lunch, the '00 being the famed Grand Cru Clos des Goisses, so you can guess where we were!); a day in Chablis, with dinner at a Michelin star restaurant; and a day in Burgundy. Our favourite quote from the trip was the Burgundy producer who said "we only have 12 bottles left of our 2003 Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru. When you leave we will only have 10". It was very good!

She recently published a new video with herself, one of only two she has made with herself. And the whole point of the video is to explain why she does not do more. "Wine tasting is not a spectator sport" she says, explaining that watching someone sniffing, spitting and talking about a wine is not her idea of an interesting wine video. Watch the  video with Jancis Robinson here! We absolutely agree. Is it really interesting watching others taste wine? Jancis says she rather lets the wine makers talk about what they do. Great, we say! Totally in line with our philosophy with BKWine TV, where we primarily publish interviews with winemakers and reportage from wine regions.

According to GF&A 330 million cases shipped in the US last year, compared to "only" 320 million cases for France. If you count in consumption per capita the US is still lagging far behind the big consuming nations, France included. GF&A estimates the size of the US wine market to $ 30 billion in 2010.

That is perhaps a confirmation of the fear that new plantings risk leading to an over-production and a glut of wine. Total production for the recently finished 2011 harvest was 310,000 tonnes, an increase with 15% and a new record. (That would be around 2 million hl of wine.) But prices are falling: in 2010 1.56 M hl was exported to a value of 550M euro. the average price was NZ$ 6,90 per litre (around 3.78€) which is a price decrease with 12%. Can we expect further falls in the prices following the big harvest?

According to Vitisphere.com 40 hectares in Languedoc will be planted with sangiovese. The Italian vine nursery Vivai Cooperativi Rauscedo (VCR) has sold some 150,000 vines to a buyer in the Languedoc (whose name is not disclosed). The motivation is that sangiovese has a better resistance to dry climate and a higher production, according to the sources.

Today he runs a charming small hotel called La Parenzana in the small village of Buje on the Istrian peninsula. One of his passions is the Istrian wine and food.

We met Guido recently when we were travelling in Istria and talked about the Istrian wine and food the he so loves. Watch the video interview here: Guido talks about wine and food from Croatia

(BKWine organises a – bespoke – wine tour to Istria in the autumn of 2011, including a fabulous truffles lunch.)Per and Britt, BKWinehttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-10941753.post-77015933662111107972011-05-10T14:59:00.000+02:002011-05-10T14:59:09.206+02:00Wines from Istria in Croatia, part 4: with an international reputation: Markezic and DegrassiOne of the most established and well known producers in Istria is Marino Markežić at Kabola. He wants to go back to the roots. And his way of doing this is to ferment and age his malvazija in clay amphoras with the skins. "The wine breaths and because it stays in contact with the skins for seven months you get everything out of the skins!" It is definitely an interesting wine, as are all Kabolas wines, it is very dry, nutty and powerful and it has a beautiful amber colour.

Moreno Degrassi is also quite well known. He wants to show the world that it is possible to make wines in Istria from other grapes than malvazia och teran. Therefore he grows 16 different varieties: Chardonnay – quite exotic and fruity – the only Viognier so far in Istria, cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, pinot noir, petit verdot and many more. He likes the local varieties however, and he thinks Istria must keep its special terroir style to be able to compete. But the wines should be made in a soft and accessible style, he thinks. The temper of Teran in tamed with oak ageing, "it softens the acidity", he says. You can tell that he adapts to the international market. His wines are very well made but not as typical Istrian as the wines from Tomaz, Matosevic and Kozlovic. For the moment he sells most of his production of 130 000 bottles in Croatia but more and more bottles are exporter.Per and Britt, BKWinehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-10941753.post-16093077046549846762011-05-09T09:28:00.000+02:002011-05-09T09:28:06.849+02:00Wines from Istria in Croatia, part 3: Breaking new ground; Kozlovic & TomazGianfranco Kozlovic is also experimenting with acacia wood. His Acacia malvazija is aged for nine months and he likes the result so far. And he thinks it is important to do something different. The wine is very good, it has personality and character. And an incredibly long aftertaste. And the acacia is there, definitely, but if it comes from the barrels or from the grape…He also makes a malvazia with 12 hours of skin contact. It is more powerful, of course, with hints of peach and ripe apples, but the freshness and the flowers are still there. I love the high acidity in these wines. malvasia could easily become my favourite white grape, a shame that it is so difficult to get outside of Croatia.

It has not been easy for the young quality-minded growers in Istria. "I didn't start at zero", says Klaudio Tomaz in Motovun, "I started at minus 20! The big coop here has made a lot of damage to our reputation."

Klaudio and Daniella Tomaz is a young couple with 8 hectares of their own and another 10 on lease. The town of Motovun has a long wine tradition but for a long time the coop only focused on mass production. The Tomaz couple makes quality wine and they want to make their personal style of Malvazija. "We have a different climate and soil here, compared to other places in Istria", says Klaudio. His basic Malvazija is very pleasant and floral, quite powerful and very fresh and dry. He also makes another Malvazija, with two weeks of skin contact, which is a traditional way of making Malvazija in Istria. This wine is aged in mulberry wood (!). His sweet Malvazija is a remarkable wine. The grapes are dried for 100 days after the harvest. They are pressed and the must ferments slowly in 2 year old oak barrels for 3 months. The alcohol reaches 16,8 % and the nose is smoky with a certain bitterness and aromas of dried figs. Definitely interesting!Per and Britt, BKWinehttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-10941753.post-72948130467604504092011-05-07T11:00:00.000+02:002011-05-07T11:00:57.645+02:00Wines from Istria in Croatia, part 2: Acacia and Ivica MatosevicIvica Matosevic is the first one to make wine in his family. "You can't make a lot of money in wine" he says, but it is a nice job! And people like my wines, think they are very drinkable." He used to work as a landscape architect and 1996 was his first vintage. He is, as most producers in Istria, specialized in malvazia. But he also makes good red wines from the local Teran. Like malvazija, this is a grape with a strong personality and he prefers to blend it with Merlot to get a better balance.

His bestseller is the clean and fresh malvazija Alba. It is bottled early after fermentation on stainless steel tanks. "I want to keep the freshness, this should be an easy-drinking product", he says. It expresses beautifully the fresh and floral character of malvazia. There is a pleasant bitterness at the finish, also very typical.

Another typical aroma of the malvasia is the acacia flower. Maybe that is why Istrian producers are experimenting with ageing in acacia wood. "We have a local cooper who works with acacia wood, it is quite hard to work with and it gives a strong taste", says Ivica. "I use 15 % of acacia barrels but never new wood. The acacia gives smoky notes to the wine and also some honey but it allows the wine to keep the extraordinary freshness that Malvazia is capable of."Per and Britt, BKWinehttp://email@example.com

Rand Daily Mail editor, Ray Hartley, says African National Congress (ANC) Members of Parliament who would want to vote against President Jacob Zuma in the motion of no confidence, have to decide what they would do if the motion fails.
Former president Thabo Mbeki has called on ANC MPs to vote with their conscience ahead of the no confidence vote against Zuma in Parliament next week.
Hartley explains that Mbeki would not have taken a decision against his party if he faced a similar situation when he was still in Parliament.
However, he also says it's important to note that the former president made reference to the ruling of the Constitutional Court on the Nkandla saga, where it explained the place, role, and task of MPs.
If the Constitutional Court had done that while he was president, I suspect he may have gone with that.— Ray Hartley, Rand Daily Mail editor
Hartely says the former president could influence some of the ANC MPs but they will still have to do political calculations before making a decision to vote with the opposition next Tuesday.
They going to make political calculations. If the ANC is able to impose its will on them it would be because they believe that it could cost them.— Ray Hartley, Rand Daily Mail editor

One more time, please. This time with a little less face.
Invisible Monsters initially unnamed narrator was once a beautiful fashion model. But only to draw the attention of her parents away from her brother, Shane. The narrator has it all until the fateful day of the accident where the bottom half of her face gets completely blown off leaving her with nothing more than top teeth and a tongue that hangs out of the gaping wound.
This may be nothing, but Invisible Monsters popped up on the IMDB last week here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0756666/. This project has long been in development with newcomer Jesse Peyronel behind the helm as writer and director. Jesse had a lot of success with a short film before impressing Chuck Palahniuk and his agent with his screenplay adaptation of Invisible Monsters. In fact, Chuck was so impressed that he fully endorsed Jesse's optioning of the project for one year to try and raise the money for it. It was during this year that all the rumors started. The one that stuck the most was that Jessica Biel would be starring as Shannon. Then Parker Posey's name began popping up too. And pretty soon, even Miramax Films had entered the mix. But when the year was up, and the option ran out, it seemed Monsters was no closer to a greenlight.

Before proceeding, it should be made clear that
moving a configuration file from one model to another is
not officially supported by Fortinet.
That being said, there are a few gray areas where circumstances can force the issue. This article is intended to color in those gray areas with some information you may find useful.
If you are replacing a FortiGate of one model with different model it is considered best practices to start with a clean install of the firmware and build the configuration from scratch. However, there are some circumstances where the replacement for a FortiGate with a different model was not part of a well organized plan and the configuration is complex enough that you will want to give moving the existing configuration a try. 99.9 % of the time it is not possible to seamlessly use a configuration file from one model on another but because the configuration file is a text file to be read by the firmware each time the unit boots up it is theoretically possible to use another model's configuration file as the basis for the configuration of a different model. The file needs to be edited, sometimes extensively, preferably by someone comfortable with the syntax of these configuration files.
For those brave enough to attempt this sort of thing the usual approach is as follows:
- Install a fresh copy of the firmware on the new device. The firmware has to be the exact same version as the one that was used to back up the configuration of the source device.
- Execute
factoryresetin the CLI to verify that there is a clean configuration file.
- Set up the Interfaces and modes as close as possible to the source device, using the same names and addresses.
- Use the backup copy of the source device to cut and paste sections into the destination device through the Command Line Interface. The CLI will check for syntax errors as the commands are entered.
- Run a diagnostic error check to see if there are any errors
The reality is that unless you are very knowledgeable and comfortable playing in the configuration file, it is easier and faster to build the new configuration from the ground up.
Useful Tools
TFTP server – This will direct you to a free Windows software utility that will perform the function of TFTP Server. If it does not appear to work, make sure that no other service or application is using port 69.
Whenever using the TFTP server it is also important to turn off any software firewalls running on the computer acting as the server.
SSH/Telnet client – This will direct you to a download for Putty.exe, a commonly used client.
Text editor – This will direct you to a free download for Notepad++, a source code editor. The beauty of a source code editor like Notepad++ — rather than Notepad — is that it shows the indents you make in the code, which is more intuitive and makes things much easier.
File comparison software – This will direct you to a free download of WinMerge, a tool for data comparison and merging of text-like files.
If after the warnings and caveats you are still determined to try, follow the steps below…
On the Original Device
Step #1 – Get Started!
Verify that you have a working configuration that performs its functions properly.
Step #2 – Version verification
Verify the Version, the MR level, the Patch Level and the build number of the firmware of the original device.
Using the top line of the Configuration file:
If you can read the top line of the configuration file with a code editor or even a text editor, you will get a line similar to the one in this example:
Right after the model number, "
FGT60C-" is the version number, in this case
4.00. We now know the version number. The build number can be used to narrow it down to a MR number and patch number.
Using the Web Based Interface:
- In version 4.3.x or later:
Go to System > Dashboard > System > Information widget
The line "Firmware Version" should look similar to:
v4.0,build0656,130211 (MR3 Patch 12) [Update] [Details]
Using the Command Line Interface:
Run the command:
get system status
There are more lines of output than are seen here but the relevant ones are:
- In Version 4 MR 3 and later:
Version: FortiWiFi-80CM v4.0,build0458,110627 (MR3 Patch 1) Branch point: 458 Release Version Information: MR3 Patch 1
- In Version 4 MR 2 and earlier:
Version: Fortigate-60C v4.0,build5840,110715 (MR2) Branch point: 328 Release Version Information: MR2
The difference being that starting in MR3, the patch number is included as well as the MR version and the build number is consistent with the branch point.
If you need to know which Branch point corresponds with which Firmware image you can check the Upgrade Path document here, or log into a Support Chat session and ask an on duty technician.
Step #3 – Backup the working configuration file
There are a number of ways, but the simplest is through the Web Based Manager:
- Go to System > Dashboard > System > Information widget
- Go to the line: System Configuration
- Click on [Backup]
- Save the file to your local PC
On the New Device
Step #4 – Install the same firmware on the device as is on the original device
Upgrades can be done afterwards but during the transition, in order to minimize the possibility of syntax errors it is important that the devices match in terms of firmware. If the new device came from the factory with a more recent version of the firmware there are two options:
- Upgrade the original device to the same level as the new device, or
- Install the same version being used by the original device on the new device using a console cable and a TFTP server.
Process for installing firmware via console cable:
Ideally, you want to do this using a console cable, a SSH/Telnet client, and a TFTP server:
- Connect the Console cable
Using the console cable, connect the computer running the TFTP server to the FortiGate unit.
- Connect Ethernet Cable
Connect an Ethernet cable from the Fortinet Device to either the computer or a network that is on the same subnet as the computer hosting the TFTP server. The port on the Fortinet device that you would connect the Ethernet cable to is usually the Internal port 1.
- Log in to the Fortinet device with your SSH/Telnet client:
Connect to the device using the following settings:
Speed 9600 Data Bits 8 Parity N Stop Bits 1 Flow Control No Hardware Flow Control
- Reboot / power cycle the Fortinet Device and bring up the menu
As the console displays text as it boots up, it will eventually display the following line:
Press any key to display configuration menu..."
Press the space bar or any other key.
5. Format the boot device:
If the menu includes:
Format boot device [F]
Press F and wait for the device formatting to complete.
6. Download the firmware:
Press G to start firmware download.
The console displays:
Enter TFTP server address [192.168.1.168]:
Type the IP address of the computer running the TFTP server and press Enter. The console displays:
Enter Local Address [192.168.1.188]:
Type an unused IP address that is on the same subnet as the TFTP server and press Enter.
The console displays:
Enter File Name [image.out]:
Type the firmware image file name and press Enter.
The console periodically displays a "#" (pound or hash symbol) to show the download progress. When the download completes, the console displays a message similar to:
Save as Default firmware/Run image without saving: [D/R] Press D.
The FortiGate unit installs the new firmware image and restarts. The installation may take a few minutes to complete.
Step #5 – Set to Factory Default
This will clear away all previous settings and configurations.
Using the command line interface, enter the command:
execute factoryreset
Once entered, you should have a clean, default configuration file installed on your new device
Step #6 – The Interfaces
Set up the interfaces of the new device as closely as possible to match the original devices.
- To log into the clean system you will likely use the default IP address of 192.168.1.99 on the internal ports.
- Make sure the mode of the internal ports matches, i.e. interface mode, switch mode, or hub mode.
- Make sure the names of the interfaces match.
- Make sure that the IP addresses used on the interfaces.
- Make sure that any DHCP servers or DNS servers match.
Step #7 – Add configuration components to the baseline configuration
This section should be prefaced with the warning that you should not copy over anything that relates directly to the configuration of the interfaces, as you could "break" the device if the configuration does not match the hardware. In terms of best practice, you should only copy and paste sections of the configuration where you understand the purpose of the lines of code that you are moving over — at least in a general sense.
You will need a text editor or a source code editor that can read the configuration file in a user-friendly fashion. Notepad++ is a good choice, but it is always best to use what you are comfortable with.
You will probably also want a SSH client to connect to the Fortigate rather than use the widget in the Dashboard window. It is possible to use the widget but using a separate client will allow you to expand the window so you aren't feeling cramped on the screen. Putty is a commonly used client.
Rather than using the GUI to go through all the steps or typing in all of the commands through the CLI, you should copy from the configuration file as displayed in the source code editor and paste it into the CLI.
The CLI will catch any syntax errors and most logical errors.
You should be able to copy and paste in sections; this will save a lot of time. The thing to remember is to do it in the correct sections. The code editor should show the lines of the configuration with indents from the left, depending on how nested the CLI command is. You want to copy entire nested sections that can be entered from the "root" command prompt. In other words, from a line that has no indent to the next line that has no indent. For instance, in the example below, you would copy and paste the entire group from the line starting with "config" to the line containing "end". The command structure of the CLI is context sensitive. If you tried to copy from the line starting with "edit" we would have to first manually enter the command "config system accprofile", otherwise errors will occur.
config system accprofile edit "prof_admin" set admingrp read-write set authgrp read-write set endpoint-control-grp read-write set fwgrp read-write set loggrp read-write set mntgrp read-write set netgrp read-write set routegrp read-write set sysgrp read-write set updategrp read-write set utmgrp read-write set vpngrp read-write next end
The copying from the source code editor is straight forward enough: select the text you want to copy and right click | select copy or use the hot keys CTRL+C. To paste into the CLI with Putty, just make sure that you are already logged in through Putty and that you are at the "root" prompt. Use the left mouse button to select the Putty window and then right click anywhere within the window. This will paste the commands in the right order into the CLI. If you get any errors the CLI will immediately give you error messages and you can deal with them right there where you know the error is occurring. This is why you want to do the copying in discrete, controllable batches.
For those who are more familiar with the configuration, you may want to skip sections that are likely to be common to all configurations such as the replacement messages.
Continue copying and pasting until you reach the end of the configuration file.
Step #8 – Backup
Make a copy (backup) of the current configuration file. Same as in Step 3
Step #9 – Test
Test to make sure the unit is operating as desired.
Step #10 – Compare files
Compare the original configuration file to the current one for differences.
(Optional) Use a product like WinMerge to make the comparison of files easier. The files will never be completely the same, but by running the comparison you can check for obvious discrepancies.
After you have completed entering the configuration settings, you can do a final check of the configuration by running from the CLI:
diagnose debug config-error-log read
If there are any configuration issues in the new file, this command will give as an output the line where the configuration stops working, according to its diagnostic rules.

After living in the same house for several years, the heart yearns for a change. This in no way means that you love your home any less, it just means you need a change of scenery.
If you have already figured that out, you are probably looking for a renovation project for your home. While there are a number of options to choose from, some projects, such as kitchen renovations or conservatories remain some of the most popular renovation or home improvement projects. This blog post is going to offer some very reasons for making a conservatory your next home improvement project.
It is cost effective
As expensive as they might look, conservatories are much cheaper to build when compared with other builder projects. This is not just in terms of the cost of the builder, even the material used in a conservatory is affordable.
Moreover, maintaining a conservatory costs next to nothing. Simply stash some rattan furniture in the conservatory and you are good to go. This kind of furniture is cheap when it comes to purchasing, and is even more affordable in terms of maintenance. You can even get multiple replacement cushion covers for your rattan furniture to surprise your guests with a fresh look every time they visit. If you had already thought about this, check out these cushion covers!
Better aesthetics and value for your home
There is absolutely no denying that conservatories look great, both from inside and outside. While these were originally used to house exotic plants during harsh winter seasons, conservatories today are viewed as anything between an office, a guest room, or even a dining room!
Having a conservatory also enhance the overall value of your home. Most of the times, the difference in the value is much higher than the cost of building the conservatory.
More natural light, better energy efficiency
Most conservatories are built to let more light inside the property. Usually covered with uPVC material, the conservatory windows can be strategically placed in order to let more light inside throughout the day.
The uPVC material used in conservatories is designed to improve the energy efficiency of your home by offering enhanced temperature control capabilities. The material would help you keep your home warmer, for longer, while using less amounts of energy.
You do not need planning permission!
This might not be true for all areas, but in most cases, building a conservatory does not require citizens to go through the planning permission process, as long as they are smaller than a certain size. The size permissions vary among areas, so you might want to check the requirements for your neighbourhood.
Access the outdoors, while remaining indoors
Conservatories are like elaborate windows to your garden. This not only ensures a great view, it also means that you can still enjoy your garden when the weather does not allow you to be outside. There is something special about watching the snow fall, while you sit snug and warm inside the comfort of your home.
A conservatory is one of the most utilitarian and affordable home improvement projects one can undertake. Not only having a conservatory gives you
several advantages like more space, light, and comfort, it also proves to be a great investment when you decide to sell your property.

My name is Ashlyn and I was given the somewhat unfortunate middle name of a famous mermaid. For the record, I came first.
2013 to 2014 – This has truly been a year that has drastically changed my life.
– The husband started a new job with less pay but with more promise for the future.
– I found out I was pregnant and we were ecstatic. We had tried for a year for our second child…then we found out it was not only our second, but also our third child…TWINS. At that point we freaked and then again became excited.
– My body decided it wanted to have the babies 10 weeks early. After halting the labor I was put on bed rest in the hospital. My husband became a single dad in the span of two days. (He championed this role along with much help from family and friends.)
– Twins! Girl via whooha and boy via emergency c-section.
– Needless to say, I did not return to work. What with a 3 year old and infant twins…ain't nobody got time for that.
This is where I am folks…Welcome to The Stay At Home Mom blog that is my life blown up on the interwebz!!

Having a popcorn maker accessible whenever you feel like eating some is really handy. There are several ways to pop your corn kernels and perhaps the most popular one before was through the microwave. Most American homes always have a stock of microwaveable popcorns since they make good snacks when whiling time away. These days however, more and more people are becoming conscious of their health that they are switching to healthy food. For some, they change the ingredients or the way they cook to make it healthier. This is the same for popcorns, instead of using microwaveable ones which makes use of a lot of oil; the hot air popcorn maker is becoming increasingly popular.
One of the known brands is the Presto Popcorn Popper. These come in stylish and efficient designs. They are also very affordable so a lot of people prefer them.
Presto PopLite Hot Air Popper
This machine might look small but it is one of the most powerful popcorn makers. This can actually make up to 18 cups of fully popped corn kernels in less than 2 ½ minutes. This is a lot faster than the microwave. Actually, in a study they found out that Presto PopLite hot air popper is better in performance than other leading brands. It popped 30% faster than others and there is not a single unpopped kernel left. This says a lot about the product. This embodies simplicity and at the same time usefulness and effectiveness. This uses regular or gourmet popcorn and can save up to 70% over microwaveable bags. This makes use of hot air instead of oil which makes sure you get fewer calories. With this, you also don't get any artificial flavorings, preservatives, saturated fats or even salt.
Presto 04868 Orville Redebacher's Fountain Hot Air Popper
First of all, the design of this popcorn maker is really entertaining. It pops kernels in such a way that they come out in a fountain-like manner. This features specially engineered steel restrictors which help optimize popping performance. This ensures that its goal of 20 cups in less than 3 ½ minutes is met. This also comes with a vented cover which assures crispy popcorn at all times. As for this product, you can actually choose how many cups you will be making ranging from 10-20 cups. It makes it perfect not just for get-togethers but also when you are alone.
Its cover also serves as a serving bowl so it lessens the number of dishes you need to clean up afterwards.
Presto Electric Hot Air Popper
This elegant and classy popcorn popper makes healthy popcorn in no time. This pops corn kernels using hot air instead of oil. This ensures you take in lesser calories. Additionally, it has a chute which directs the popcorn into your bowl avoiding mess in the kitchen. It also has a built-in butter melter. This was designed so that the butter will be mixed evenly before the popped corn goes to the bowl.

Ceramic Artist Michael Boroniec to Premiere "Spatial Spirals" Series at SoFA Chicago 2017
New York, NY – Nationally recognized for his socio-political body of work, ceramic artist Michael Boroniec will premiere groundbreaking new artwork opening unexplored dimensions in ceramic art at SoFA Chicago 2017 located on the Navy Pier during November 2 - 5, 2017.
At 33, Boroniec is one of the true up and coming new artists with fresh ideas and innovative interpretations executed in clay.
A 2006 graduate of the Rhode Island Schools of Design (RISD), Boroniec has made a unique mark in the arts world and has received international media attention for his socio-political art tied to world events ranging from wars in the middle east to the Gulf oil spill.
Examples of his work include "Messages", a series of clay and sand works that include military artifacts and a unique execution of his best friend's Army boots. The genesis of the work was his best friend's service as an American Army helicopter pilot in the Afghanistan conflict at the time. Those pieces have toured extensively, having first been featured at the Fuller Craft Museum in Brockton, Massachusetts, as part of "Perfect Fit; Shoes Tell Stories", a juried exhibition by Wendy Kaplan. Subsequently, these pieces were exhibited at five major museums across the United States.
Michael Boroniec is currently represented by Lyons Wier Gallery, 542 W 24th St. NYC. In addition to the Fuller Craft Museum, Boroniec's work has been exhibited at Ferrin Contemporary; Berkshire Museum in Pittsfield, Ma; the New York Ceramics and Glass Fair, National Bohemian Hall, NYC; Boise Art Museum; Albany Institute of Art and History; Lauren Clark Fine Art in Great Barrington, Ma; Woods Gerry Gallery in Providence, Rhode Island. A full list of exhibitions is provided in the included "List of Resources".
Remarking on the socio-political series, Berkshire Eagle Arts Editor Charles Bonnetti commented, "Boroniec is continually alert to present time, confronting a flow of media words and images that are instantaneous and as constant as waves drives upon a beach".
Boroniec has also been featured in two juried RISD Biennial exhibitions including "RISD Routes: Contemporary Craft by New England Alumni" juried by David Revere McFadden, the former director of The Museum of Art and Design.
"Spatial Spiral"
At SoFA Chicago 2017, Boroniec will be debuting his latest renditions of the "Spatial Spiral" series.
Representing a departure from his past thematic works, the 'Spatial Spiral' series demonstrates entirely new levels of accomplishment and execution in ceramics. The series is created with an exclusive, innovative and first of its kind artistic technique that has made this signature series much sought after by collectors, even in advance of its showing at the New York Ceramics & Glass Show.
The "Spatial Spiral" series is an adventure in three dimensions and expands the concept of ceramics beyond traditional boundaries with very modern execution and beautiful lines that opens the work up for collectors to explore and share. This series has unlimited potential with each piece representing its own fore into this new world of ceramic interpretation.
During his appearance at SoFA Chicago, Boroniec will be showing both his foundational works of this series, as well as awe inspiring new concepts and pieces that have most recently been added to this innovative body of work, the likes of which have never been seen before in ceramic art.
There is no doubt that the unique nature of these works will make them much sought after by collectors who want to add Boroniec to their existing collections, as the artist to watch as he continues to garner attention and recognition for his work.
Design, execution, and finishing of each spiral piece represents a singularly unique adventure as Boroniec takes his creative concepts to the wheel where he crafts and works with clay in a completely new way. He then painstakingly employs a special firing technique, as each work is fired individually in a kiln that is custom made to accommodate the spiral designs. He completes each masterpiece with creative combinations of proprietary glazes and finishes that he has formulated during extensive processes of exploration and experimentation.
Leading Art Experts Take Notice
In addition to national and international media outlets, Boroniec's work has captured the attention of some of the leading figures in the world of ceramic arts including Mark Del Vecchio, author of the critically acclaimed book "Postmodern Ceramic", a widely-used text in art schools. His honors also include lifetime achievement awards (Museum of Arts and Design, New York, Friends of Contemporary Ceramics) and an honorary doctorate from the Kansas City Art Institute.
Commenting specifically on Boroniec's new groundbreaking "Spiral" series, Del Vecchio said, "Having watched him grow over the past 6 years, Boroniec recently moved into a complex and unique direction I would not have thought possible in ceramics. Having mastered the wheel from an early age, Michael's newest direction of slicing the thrown form and managing to fire the piece so that it has a spontaneous spaciousness while still retaining it's whole strikes me as remarkable. The idea and form reminds me of the great Italian artist Lucio Fontana who explored for decades the cut surface."

Video games are a growing trend in the entertainment industry. With more and more youngsters turning to gaming and e-sports as a preferred means of entertainment, even the adults are catching up to the trend. As more and more video games are released each month, they provide a wide range of variety for people with every taste and
Of the several hundred games released in various categories, we have taken some time to review the best games in each genre for your convenience. Here's a list of the must have video games for 2015 along with their reviews.
1. Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain
– Genre: Action, RPG
– Available for: PS4, PC, Xbox 360, PS3, Xbox One
– Rating: 4/5
– Review: MGS 5 is a well balanced and sublimely authored game. It doesn't just respect the intelligence of the player but expects it of him. From artwork, to story, to production, this game truly is in a league of its own.
– Genre: Sports
– Available for: Xbox, PS4
– Rating: 3/5
– Review: NHL has been built using user recommendations and fan feedback. It has stepped out of the production phase as an excellent multi-player for fans and viewers alike. The online gaming feature available in game allows you to play with up to 12 players at the same time.
3. Pro Evolution Soccer 2016
– Genre: Sports.
– Available for: PS4 and Xbox One
– Rating: 4.5/5
– Review: From fearless sliding tackles, to holding up the ball under pressure, to the heavenly wave of pride that comes with out-thinking a defender, everything about this game feels fantastic. The graphics on the other hand, especially the ones dealing with facial animations could have used more work, but overall this is an excellent and highly recommended for soccer fans.
4. Forza Motorsport 6
– Genre: Racing
– Available for: TV Platform, Xbox One
– Rating: 2/5
– Review: Forza 6 graphically sells the racing experience for all weather scenarios and the car customization options available are stunning.

What makes this game great is the fact that it was developed for a TV platform making it available to a larger potential player base.
5. Mad Max
– Genre: Racing
– Available for: PS4, Xbox ONE, PC, PS3, Xbox 360
– Rating: 3.5/5

6. Dishonored: Definitive Edition
– Genre: Action (FPS)
– Available for: Xbox One, PS4
– Rating: 3.5 stars
– Reviews: There are elements to the design of dishonoured which need more refining and fine tuning. The game has still managed to make it to the top 6 must have games because of its liberating game experience and the fact that it has been grounded in player choice.
7. Velocity 2x
– Genre: Actio, Sci Fi
– Available for: PS4 Vita, PS4
– Rating: 3.5/5
– Reviews: Velocity expertly straddles two different genres. The story is narrated through a crisp comic-book panels, but if you'd rather be shooting stuff, there are times it can seem superfluous. Overall, it manages to make up for this with its unique style, confidence, and explosive pace.

Auburn receiver Melvin Ray impresses at Pro Day
AUBURN, Ala. — The atmosphere during Auburn's Pro Day on Monday was anything but new for receiver Melvin Ray.
A former minor league player for the Los Angeles Dodgers, the veteran receiver approached Monday's showcase with the same blue-collar mentality he learned to adopt having previously played professional sports.
"I feel like I gave it my all," Ray said following Monday's workouts. "Definitely feel like I left it all out there. I trained really hard for this. I was prepared."
Asked if his prior stint within the Dodgers' organization gave him an advantage on Monday, Ray replied, "I don't think so with football, but maybe with the overall lifestyle off the field. Just the way you carry yourself and conduct yourself and the way you talk to coaches and scouts and whatnot."
The Tallahassee, Fla., native was selected by the Dodgers in the 33rd round of the 2008 MLB First-Year Player Draft, where he would remain until 2011 before enrolling at Alabama the following year. Ray would ultimately transfer to Auburn in 2012, where he contributed immediately on special teams. He would play an integral part in coach Gus Malzahn's offense over the next three years.
But Ray wasn't on the receiving end of an NFL Combine invite, proving Monday's workouts to be even more important. He was one of 14 Auburn players to take part in the program's Pro Day, and the 26-year-old impressed.
Ray recorded a 35.5-inch vertical — second only to defensive back Blake Countess — and ran a 4.57 forty-yard dash. The responses from NFL scouts in attendance were promising, he said.
"They're very encouraging out there," Ray said. "They were talking to me and telling me, 'Good job'. I was just trying to be very detailed and follow instructions well. I had pretty good feedback."

Looking for basic, facility-specific information about hospital services and charges? Check out PricePoint.
The Office of Management and Budget approved a renewed Advance Beneficiary Notice of Noncoverage (ABN) form and its instructions in late March. This version of the ABN becomes effective June 21, 2017.
In general, the content of the English and Spanish versions of the form did not change. However, the expiration date on the form was moved out to March 2020. The bottom of the ABN now includes the language informing beneficiaries of their rights in regards to CMS' nondiscrimination practices, and it also includes a telephone number and email address for obtaining alternate formats of the ABN.
An ABN is a written notice given to a patient with traditional Medicare when it is believed a service will not be covered by Medicare Part B, which may make the patient liable for the cost of that service. However, the ABN is not a denial of coverage of services, and a claim may still be filed for the services. The ABN should list the service in
question, its estimated cost, and the reason why Medicare may not pay for the service.
The patient can then make an informed decision as to whether he or she wishes
to bear the cost of services by continuing with the plan of care.
The ABN form and its instructions are available for download on CMS'
FFS ABN website. For questions about the ABN, email firstname.lastname@example.com.

I've been experimenting with writing an elixir library that can make purchases using the Paypal API. Source here. While working on this lib, I needed a way configure it for different environments (test, dev, production). Coming from Ruby I'd typically reach for YAML and be on my marry way.
Meanwhile Jedi Master José felt a disturbance in the force and tweeted to the world about the dark path I was headed down.
Please avoid YAML in Elixir projects. It is unnecessarily complex, both in implementation and usage. Elixir already provides config files.— José Valim (@josevalim) July 28, 2015
Alright lets see what this elixir config stuff is all about!
When you create a new project with mix it creates this handy folder called
config and a
config.exs file. This file is well documented and uses Mix.Config check it out for more details!
Reading through the comments I opted to set it up so each environment could set it's own config. I promptly un-commented
import_config "#{Mix.env}.exs" then created
config/dev.exs and
To get started using the Paypal API I needed a couple things configed.
# config/dev.exs
config :ppt,
user: "AeosmXJ1nZWwJgErHHhzxpOS0fH7Ki6qu4LVEotJA3al_bsZcnnYsvc1dDAi_71JYIdwkxeFHDu4sdEy"
secret: "EDL8FGl7O6Xy-oIjdvcl4TRrx9EqKEkU_vKTi2qV3S95vfh1RB9gqiBJ6Uys-NuhSWCOn3FO84JFdpXy",
currency: "USD"
Don't worry those keys are only have access to a sandbox API.
Alright so we got some values setup in our config. How do we get access to them?! As simple as this:
Application.get_env(:ppt, :user). This way you are sure to grab the right key for whatever environment you are running in, whether it be test, dev, prod or something else.
So how does this work when you're lib is imported into another mix application that also has its own environment configs?
I imported the paypal lib into another learning project of mine, a shopping cart powered by the phoenix framework.
Using the shopping carts environment config files I was able to override any of the keys from the imported paypal library! Super cool and super easy! From my understanding the way it works is as follows:
Projects config.exs -> App's Env.exs
If the key is unset in any of these files it moves on to the next one in the list. So in my case the priority of which value
Application.get_env would return would be.
- shopping_cart's environment config file.
- ppt's config file
Elixir's built in way to handle configuration is very well thought out, and should be the convention of configuring your elixir libraries and applications!

Indiana beats Florida State for Hoosiers' first NCAA super regional victory
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Kyle Schwarber had a go-ahead two-run single in a four-run seventh inning as Indiana went on to beat Florida State 10-9 on Saturday in the first game of the Tallahassee Super Regional.
Schwarber, who also had a two-run homer in the fourth, put Indiana up 7-6 with his hit in the seventh.
''When you see a hitter like this, we're kind of used to it,'' Indiana coach Tracy Smith said. ''He has a very, very advanced approach. That's what I think makes him such a special hitter. It certainly helped him [on Saturday].''
Indiana (47-14) needed every run to survive a late Florida State rally in a 4-hour, 16-minute game that was far from a thing of beauty. Each team committed three errors and a combined 11 pitchers were used.
The Hoosiers provided plenty of pop with 11 hits. Scott Donley went 2-for-5 with two runs scored and Michael Basil went 2-for-5 with an RBI single, double and a run scored.
Indiana, playing in the Super Regionals for the first time, can advance to its first College World Series with a win on Sunday. If the Seminoles (47-16) win, a deciding game will be played Monday.
''I don't think it was a particularly well-played game,'' Smith said, ''but I do think it's important in a Super Regional format to get off to a good start with a win in Game 1 no matter how it happens.''
Florida State led 6-5 going into the sixth, but Indiana scored four runs against Gage Smith (4-2) and Billy Strode. They gave up three hits in the inning, but the Seminoles' defense didn't help in committing two throwing errors.
''It's always frustrating when you make errors and give up runs,'' said Florida State first baseman John Nogowski, who made one of the errors. ''They seemed like every chance they had, a guy in scoring position, they got him in.''
Nogowski went 2-for-3 with a two-run homer in the eighth that trimmed Indiana's lead to 10-8. He also scored three runs and Giovanny Alfonzo went 3 for 4 with two RBIs and two runs.
DJ Stewart added an RBI single in the ninth, and Florida State also had runners at second and third with just one out after Indiana's Will Coursen-Carr tossed a wild pitch.
However, Coursen-Carr settled in and induced a pair of flyouts from Stephen McGee and Marcus Davis, Florida State's No. 3 and 4 hitters, to end the game.
Brian Korte (1-0) pitched .1 innings for the win.
Neither starter factored significantly in the game. Indiana's Joey DeNato gave up four walks, hit two batters and allowed two earned runs in three innings. Florida State's Luke Weaver gave up five earned runs on seven hits in five innings.
Florida State stranded 13 runners on base.
The Seminoles, in the Super Regionals for a sixth consecutive season, lost an opener before, falling to Wichita State in 2008 in Tallahassee, before rallying to win the next two games.
''It ain't over,'' Florida State coach Mike Martin said. ''We are going to play our butts off [on Sunday].''

It's so exciting, but then what...
Getting new computers, tablets and phones is exciting. Like a kid getting his favourite toy and can't wait to get home and play with it. You'll discover the new bells and whistles that will make your job easier and more efficient... But what happens to the old electronic assets?
If they have been placed into storage, either in someones cabinet or in the corner of an office, you are effectively costing the company money with no more ROI.
Here are the 4 reasons why:
1. For the first 3 years, your electronic assets have some remarket value, but remember that each month that passes, it depreciates even more.
2. By allowing the devices to depreciate past 3 years, starts costing the company storage space. You are giving up space for old redundant electronics instead of things that are improving costs.
3. All of those devices have important data on. Keeping it opens the door to people getting access to the data.
4. A lot could happen to the storage area: flood, fire, theft, accident. These will effectively minimise the resell value should something happen whilst in storage.
If you've been storing these devices because you don't know what to do with them, then contact Desco Electronic Recyclers. We go beyond the standard computer recycling, by offering a free collection for ANY AND ALL electronic devices; whether retired/broken, depreciated or unwanted.
