What makes a wine great isn't a number or a score
Please indulge me while I share two separate conversations I heard recently.
The first from an acquaintance who recently returned from a late-fall trip to Napa Valley.
He and his wife, both discerning wine people with an appreciation for California-style wines, were visiting friends who introduced our couple to a fairly new but already successful winemaker.
During that initial conversation, the three quickly bonded and soon the winemaker was inviting his new friends to visit his winery, which normally isn't open to the public. During a late lunch after touring his vineyards and winery, the winemaker graciously opened a couple of bottles from his personal library.
No sales pitch, no pressure, simply a gesture of friendship at our friends' interest.
The wine, said my friend, "was a Cabernet (Sauvignon) and was simply stunning."
Not surprisingly, at least to me, our well-funded friends brought a couple of these bottles back home to Colorado.
The second conversation, similar but with its roots 6,000 miles away, began when another acquaintance, this one a wine importer from Denver, remarked how he had met "too many to count" winemakers and their representatives while attending a wine festival in Verona, Italy.
"Almost everyone implored me to visit their winery and hear their story," this friend recalled. So my friend, an impulsive sort, decided to take advantage of a couple of invitations.
"I saw some amazing estates and some tiny places where one family did all the work," he said. "And mostly I tasted the same wines there that I tasted in Verona."
But while sharing lunches and dinners in out-of-way bistros and private homes, he also got an insider's peek at how Italians view their wines and its role in the everyday life. He gladly paid the extra baggage fees after being gifted a few bottles of Sangiovese-based Vino Nobile di Montepulciano.
Here is where our stories converge.
Both men said that after arriving home, they invited over some friend to share the wines and hear their stories. And both, unknowingly but in similar words, told how the wines showed well but somehow something was missing.
"It's not that the wines were less than great, they just weren't that great, not like I remember," said one.
"Everyone said nice things about the wine and were entertained to hear about how the winemaker's grandfather had saved his wine from the Germans during World War II by hiding it under the stable," said the other. "But to me, it just wasn't the same wine."
I was fortunate to taste both wines and both were way above what I normally drink. So it probably wasn't the wines that were lacking. It was, both men affirmed, the experience of being there that made these wines memorable.
Seeing the vineyards, walking through the cellars, listening to the wine as it ages in the barrels, sharing a man's or a family's story. This, in great part, is what makes an unforgettable wine. Fortunately, both of these man realize that and neither is in any way disappointed by the wines.
"It's always expectations versus reality," one mused. "I know it won't be the same once I get home but I want so much to share the experience."
Today, social media (and extra baggage fees) allow us to share, from a distance both special and temporal, some of that experience. Still, it's but a tantalizing taste of what wines are, what they can be, and what they mean to the people who make them.
A New Year and the season for La Befana
Chasing a dream: Amateur wines show character, flaws
On a crystal-bright Saturday morning in early November, I sat down at the Wine Country Inn with five other volunteer judges for the Colorado Amateur Winemaking Competition.
This annual wine judging is but one of the many wine-related events including Colorado Mountain Winefest produced by the Colorado Association for Viticulture & Enology (CAVE).
"This year we have 96 entries, including seven fruit wines, 17 white wines, two ice wines, five rosés and 65 red wines," CAVE's tireless executive director Cassidee Shull, who wrangled up the judges, countless wine glasses and a handful of wine openers, said as the day began. "We'll taste through the wines and at the end choose the top wines to compete for Best of Show."
That was pretty much the last we saw her as she spent the day, along with CAVE Program Director Melinda Tredway and hard-working volunteers Linda Keltner and Tiffany Sommers, shuttling carts loaded with wine glasses from the bottle room to the judges' tables and back.
The judging offers amateur winemakers the opportunity to have their wines objectively assessed rather than relying on family and thirsty neighbors.
According to Orchard Mesa grape grower Rusty Price, the competition began at the 1994 Colorado Mountain Winefest at Palisade's Veteran's Park.
"The state wine industry was very, very small at the time (nine wineries), we didn't even have a contest for the pros," Price said. At the 1993 Winefest, he "hauled about 500 pounds of grapes" to the park for a grape-stomping event. That proved so popular he added an amateur winemakers' competition the following year. "I think we had seven contestants and I didn't enter because I was operating it," said Price. "I think a lot of the wineries around now got their start at that contest."
Price competed once, in 2000, and his Sunset Mesa Cellars Chardonnay won Best White Wine and Best of Show.
This year's 96 entries from 27 winemakers provided "great insight into the growth of the Colorado Wine Industry as a whole," Shull said. "These are the next generation of winemakers and grape growers ready to join this amazing industry."
The eclectic mix of wines wasn't unexpected, given the "who knows what will show up" history of the amateur contest.
"Annual entries are like the weather; you never know what you're going to get," judge Christine Feller said. "They are sometimes exceptional."
While nothing this year was exceptional, there were some well-made and very nice wines.
"I really enjoyed the fruit wines," offered judge Jenne Baldwin-Eaton, former winemaker at Plum Creek Winery and now teaching viticulture and enology at Western Colorado Community College. "They had matching aromatics and flavor."
Incidentally, 1994 was the first year Baldwin-Eaton (it just Baldwin back then) attended Winefest and soon after landed a job with Erik Bruner, then Plum Creek's winemaker.
The white wines, both dry and sweet, were generally well-received, a compliment in the sense there weren't any overly faulty wines and several were close to commercial quality.
Baldwin-Eaton noted some work still needs to be done in the crucial area of balancing acid and sweetness in wines with residual sugar (remaining after fermentation). There also were oxidation (browning) issues in several of the white wines.
This "is part of what makes white wines more difficult to make," Baldwin-Eaton said.
Red wines are buffered from oxidation by tannins and oak-aging, both of which add complexity to a wine.
That noted, the rosés and red wines received mixed reviews.
Pat Kennedy said "The improvements in the red wine is remarkable" while Feller, who has 20-plus years judging wines in this and other competitions, noted the red wines to her overall were disappointing.
There were "many flaws or challenges the winemakers couldn't resolve," Feller later wrote in an email. "Ordinarily, there are several remarkable reds."
Kennedy, formerly at Talon Wine Brands, also mentioned tasting "seven or eight" oxidized wines.
The most-common flaw reported was over-extraction, caused by leaving the skins and juice together too long.
The process is desirable in some wines but uncontrolled can produce over-developed phenolics, chemicals affecting taste, color and mouthfeel of wines.
Not every winemaker will be pleased with their review but as Baldwin-Eaton noted, the competition offers amateurs valuable experience prior to starting a bonded winery.
"A lot of hard work and labor goes into making small-scale wine, and I am very appreciative of (the winemakers') efforts," she said. "By entering their wines and opening themselves up to constructive criticism and praise for what they are doing correctly, it lets me know that they want to improve and increase the quality of their efforts."
Medals will be awarded Jan. 15 during the 14thannual VinCO Conference & Trade Show at Two Rivers Convention Center. Information at winecolorado.org.
The challenges amateurs face
Why doesn't every amateur winemaker make wines as good as the pros? Lack of experience, yes, but state enologist Stephen Menke said the biggest holdback for amateurs might well be the cost of good equipment.
Much amateur wine is made in someone's basement or garage in glass or plastic jugs known as carboys ranging from ½-gallon to 15 gallons.
"For amateurs it's all self-financed so they tend to go cheap, maybe even water-down the fruit," Menke said. "It's hard to do professional style and quality on a really low budget."
White wines are especially difficult given the special equipment needed to regulate temperatures during fermentation.
White wines "are trying to showcase the varietal fruit components of the wine," Jenne Baldwin-Eaton said. "If anything goes wrong with a white wine fermentation, it will be hard to hide and you will have lost the nice fruit components."
Pat Kennedy said during his years at Talon "we worked hard at the cold-stabilization stage in the aging process for the white wines.
"I would imagine that an amateur winemaker wouldn't have the equipment to chill the wine and keep it cold for a long period of time."
A major concern, shared with commercial winemakers, is keeping things clean.
"You can get bottle acidity, oxidation, and even some bacterial infections if you don't pay attention to the details," Menke said, noting that professionals have the experience and the equipment to deal with such problems.
"The most important thing is knowing how to clean your equipment," he said. "Eighty percent of our time is spent making sure things are not contaminated."
What's in the Glass: Le Pigioulet Vaucluse
Le Pigoulet (Vin de Pays de Vaucluse), $22 MSRP: This deep-gold vin blanc from southern Rhone producer Vignobles Brunier (producer of the flagship Le Vieux Télégraphe) offers a nose of white fruit, pears and spice and herbs. It's a lovely blend of 30 percent Rousanne, 30 percent Grenache Blanc and 40 percent Clarette.
The Rousanne component, a mix of white flowers, peaches, pears and spice brings a depth of food friendliness to this wine, which I first was served at the restaurant 626 on Rood in Grand Junction. Co-owner and wine buyer Brenda Wray has built an extensive and fulfilling wine list, one she changes on a regualr basis.
"I really loved this wine the first time I tried it," she said recently. "I like the fact that's it's so food friendly and goes well with our menu."

What's in the Glass: Ravenswood 2015 Belloni Vineyard Zinfandel
Ravenswood 2015 Belloni Vineyard Zinfandel – $39 MSRP. Lush, bright, rich with boysenberry, spice and loads of dark fruit. That's the easy part.
The story line on the Ravenswood website says winery founder Joel Peterson (is there a Zinfandel drinker who doesn't know about Joel Petersen?) was first surprised and then enthusiastic when he initially saw the 90-year old vineyard Ricardo Belloni and his wife Natalia were farming in the Russian River Valley near Santa Rosa.
That was circa 1991 and ever since Peterson has used Belloni fruit to create deeply balanced and satisfying wines. While the 2015 vintage was challenging for most winemakers – drought and a cool spring (May average temperatures were reported below the January average) resulting in smaller crops – the Belloni vines provided a high-quality harvest. Drink now through 2025.
Is it sustainable? Focusing on a living wine and a healthier world
Even while our society is awash in products ranging from clothing to fine dining labeled as natural or organic, confusion abounds for consumers and often producers.
Partly it's because the rules or guidelines that define what those terms actually mean confound most parties.
It's also partly because consumers interested in "being green" can't always find products that fit their expectations.
According to a 2009 study by the Grocery Manufacturers Association and the research firm DeLoitte, 54 percent of the more than 6,400 shoppers polled showed a preference for environmentally friendly products but only 22 percent actually bought green.
Several reasons were outlined in the study, major among them "communication and product education," said the report.
"We found … it's not enough to just put green products on the shelf," said Brian Lynch, GMA director of sales and sales promotion. "We have to better educate consumers and leverage in-store communication to make the sale."
It's not so different in the world of winemaking. Wines can carry such varied labels as "low sulfite," "natural," "organic" or even "made with organic grapes," all of which mean something different, and often nothing, to the consumer.
Broadly speaking, you can lump all winemaking under one of two processes: conventional and sustainable.
Conventional is how the great majority of winemakers pursue their art. Pesticides, herbicides and fungicides in the vineyard; preservatives, color enhancers and custom yeasts to provide desired flavors may be added in the winery.
"Sustainable" winemaking is the umbrella under which you'll find natural, organic and biodynamic methods of winemaking. The rules get progressively more restrictive as you moved from natural to biodynamic.
According to the website RawWine.com, natural wine is farmed organically or biodynamically, following the strict procedures delineated by Rudolf Steiner, with minimal intervention in the vineyard and the winery.
"The result is a living wine – wholesome and full of naturally occurring microbiology," said the website.
Author Isabelle Legeron, MW, in her book "Natural Wine," says a natural wine is one that can survive without a "technological crutch."
"In its truest form," writes Legeron, "it is wine that protects the microcosm of life in the bottle in its entirety, keeping it intact so that it remains stable and balanced."
Sustainability includes using no additives or processing aids, including yeasts, in the fermentation process.
In her new book "The Business of Sustainable Wine," Sandra Taylor says wine, unlike most other agricultural products, allows both producer and consumer to focus "on the wine grape's place of origin and the details of the wine's making."
Taylor is a former executive for Starbucks Coffee, where she helped develop guidelines for Starbucks' innovative work in sustainability for coffee, tea and cocoa.
I spoke with Taylor during Vinexpo 2018 in early March at the Javits Center in New York and during our conversation, she noted that despite a growing interest and awareness in a wine's origin, the wine industry is lagging behind in sustainable agriculture, both in environmental terms and in meeting consumers' growing demands.
In her book, she also draws a line between "sustainable" agriculture (including economic, social and environmental sustainability) and organic and biodynamic practices.
While Rachel Carson's landmark 1962 book "Silent Spring" is universally heralded as ushering in the age of environmentalism, it wasn't until the 1980s that Americans "began to seriously consider" where their food comes from or "what food production does to the planet, their bodies and their society," Taylor writes. Her book is available through Grand Valley Books, 350 Main Street, in Grand Junction and other book sellers.
Other writers, including poet and environmentalist Wendell Berry, Frances Moore Lappé ("Diet for a Small Planet") and ecologist Barry Commoner, further introduced Americans to the impacts of industrial farming and the benefits of sustainable farming.
Over the next few weeks, I'll be talking to many winemakers who produce sustainable wines, including a group of more than 100 Italian winemakers at Vini Veri, the annual fair and exposition in Cerea, Italy, a small town in northern Italy a few kilometers south of Verona.
Those producers adhere to a dictum that avoids pigeonholing wineries as "bio" or "non-bio" but rather emphasizing, as the Vini Veri website states, "the best balance between human intervention and nature in the winemaking process."
Next time, we'll talk more about sustainability in winemaking and look at how it is practiced in Colorado winemaking. (Spoiler alert: Not so much.)

Once again, I'm exploring into the material of the late Satoshi Kon and see how much of an influence and mind fuck they can be. Only time, it involves the subject of pop idols in Japan. What is a pop idol, you may ask? A pop idol in Japan are media personalities in their teens to twenties who're considered to be very appealing and attractive…..to at least for a few years. I would say it's like the similarity to most Disney Channel / Nickelodeon or any other squeaky clean celebrity; adored by the public but when you try to transcend yourself out of that image, it gets harder to do that so. The only thing sometimes the consequences can be a bit worse, as that happened in the film.
Mima Kirigoe, a member of a Japanese pop-idol group called "CHAM!" who decides to pursue her career as an actress. Some of her fans are displeased with her sudden career change, particularly a stalker named Me-Mania. As her new career proceeds, Mima's world becomes increasingly reminiscent of the works of Alfred Hitchcock: reality and fantasy spiral out of control, including string of murders claiming the lives of her TV show colleagues and Mima discovers that Me-Mania is the least of her troubles.
Now getting into the story, I say that the plot and the whole story is still relevant to today as when you want to further your career but there is some backlash from fans who think different of that and only see her as something for their enjoyment and theirs only, even so far is to actually start stalking you, putting your life and your psyche in danger and it delves into the dark side of the transition from an idol to an actress or whatever career you pursue after that. For those that say the pacing felt slow, well, I wouldn't say that as an insult as it takes a while to get into the story and plus, its 80 minutes long….it didn't manage to be too overbearingly long. I like that it dealt with what I just previously mentioned and doesn't skimp through the details of that. Plus, there are some surprises that I didn't expect watching this for the first time and the second time (yeah, I watch this twice) it finally got to me with what's going on with Mima's pop-idol personality haunting her. I also have heard of comparisons to the 2010 Darren Aronofsky movie Black Swan, which does share similarities with each other although Aronofsky said that it didn't have much of an influence.
Characters are sort of interesting in a way to study and about them. I like Mima and I get her whole transition and seeing how it's not the easiest thing to do and you can sense that during that rape scene (As in "filming a rape scene in a film, not actual rape happening") and preferably when she first revealed it to everyone. The supporting characters seem alright like Rica, Mima's manager who was against her transition but I was with Tadokoro, Mima's office manager who looks at the crossover in a positive manager.
This film was released in 1997, as in you know the animation for this film is going to look dated but for it is pretty good vintage, especially vintage material from Madhouse and like many of their earlier productions, they have their stylistic choices of artwork and felt like it was suited for a live-action film, although in actuality, animated makes it more interesting.
Musically, aside from the pop idol songs I heard in the movie, there isn't much that really standout to me. It's an alright score and all but slightly somewhat vaguely memorable to me. As for the English dub by Animaze, I quite like it. It was on par with their good English dubs in the '90s and I really did love the performances for Mima (Ruby Marlowe) and Rica (Wendee Lee) as they really standout for me when watching this.
FINAL VERDICT: I say this as an anime fan, you should give this a watch and I say the same thing as a movie buff but seeing Black Swan before and noticing the comparisons, I wouldn't call it as "Anime Black Swan before live-action Black Swan" that quick. Hell, I forgot about the whole Black Swan thing once I watch the movie. It has its insightful, artistic, and psychological elements that make it all into a good Satoshi Kon movie, maybe not his strongest but I still recommend it to most audiences.
So, Perfect Blue may not be that Perfect but it's worth…..
Perfect Blue may or may not be on DVD by Manga Entertainment. There was a UMD release for the PSP at the time but nothing come up being in print as of recently. Streaming-wise, that part you are on your own with that.
And until then, this is MAK2.0 aka Perfect Blue Hybrid, bringing all the insanity into one former pop idol.

Paid advertorial in collaboration with Tesco.
I'm not going to lie, I feel dreadful at the moment. Both mentally and physically. I'm sluggish, self doubting and overwhelmed easily and I've noticed that I am not exercising at all – not even walking into town. I feel like it's been a long time coming but I need to start injecting some goodness back into my life.
The last time I started to feel this was, I made a few subtle changes to my diet, I started to eat more veggies and essentially started to follow the Paleo diet. At the time I was doing it in the hope of losing weight, but now for me it's less about that and more that I look back and see how much healthier I felt when I was eating the rainbow, eating piles and piles of veggies. I want that feeling back, I want to feel that healthy both physically and mentally. Something I've noticed is that it's really hard to order food that is suitable for a particular dietary need. Not so much with Paleo, but for example when we have vegan friends come over.
I don't want them to feel like they have to bring their own food, I want to be able to cater to them but it's SHOCKING how many foods come up when you put in "vegan" during searches I've done in the past with various foodie shops – I remember creating a hamper for a very dear friend from a small independent stockist that claims to have a lot of niche products, she was having a really tough time and I ordered a tonne of food that was under the "vegan" search – apart from quite a few weren't vegan at all… they were vegetarian! It's not the only time I've noticed this happen either. Recently we were told that it might be an idea to try cutting gluten and lactose from Toby's diet at different times because he's been suffering with stomach aches – which we all thought was linked to his undescended testicle, but apparently not.
I don't have a clue what has no gluten or lactose… I mean, I've always eaten these foods!
That's where I get to my point: Tesco have introduced their Lifestyle & Dietary filters and I am LOVING them. Unlike my past experiences I have found that these filters are brilliant and they are absolutely effective.
Sure, it's easy to work out what is vegan or Paleo suitable if you are in the veggy section of your shop – but what about the food cupboard? That bad boy is a MINEFIELD. These lifestyle choices might not be important, but when you start to think about dietary requirements that aren't choices but perhaps allergy based or intolerance based… I don't think that we, as parents (or people in general really) need the added stress of trying to work out what every single thing contains and doesn't. The point to online food shopping is that it is faster and something that can be so simple. You can sit with a written meal plan in your bra and bang out an order in minutes… unless you have to spend agesssss reading every ingredient list, every potential lunchbox hazard.
The filters are varied and fit every dietary lifestyle and requirement, in fact, when Tesco approached me to ask me to work with them on chatting to you guys about this I wasn't aware of how many dietary requirements or lifestyles there actually are. There are so many. The best thing for me about this is that it's also available on the app so if you are doing your shopping on the fly it can actually be on the fly. It can actually be done swiftly, with minimal effort and maximum consideration from a huge brand for your needs, something that doesn't happen all too often.
You can learn more about Tesco filters and try them out on your weekly shop here.

Formula 1 world champion Niki Lauda became the first European owner of the Bombardier Global 7500 business jet
On March 28, Bombardier solemnly handed over the first ultra-long business jet Global 7500 to a European client. They became a long-time partner of the Canadian manufacturer of the world-famous Formula 1 pilot Niki Lauda. The transfer of the business jet with serial number 70011 occurred seven weeks after receiving the flagship EASA certificate. In the near future, the aircraft will be registered in Austria and begin to fly. At various times, Niki Lauda, ??who was also a pilot, owned the Challenger 300, Global 5000 and Global 6000 business jets.
"We are thrilled to deliver our flagship Global 7500 business jet to Niki Lauda, our esteemed customer for many years," said David Coleal, President, Bombardier Business Aircraft. "The Global 7500 aircraft is simply the best business jet on the market. It sets the standard by which all other aircraft in private aviation will be measured, demonstrated by the prestigious design and aviation awards it has garnered. The Global 7500 aircraft is the crown jewel of the industry."
"I have enjoyed watching the evolution and growth of the Global Aircraft program. I have always been impressed with the expertise, craftsmanship and innovation that go into building every Global business jet," said Niki Lauda. "The Global 7500 aircraft is the culmination of all the knowledge Bombardier teams have gained over the years and I look forward to experiencing the range, speed and comfort this jet has to offer."
Interior design for the Niki Lauda's future aircraft was developed by Hannes Rausch and Veronique Ferrari (Hannes Rausch & Veronique Ferrari). When finishing the business jet of Niki Lauda, ??the task was to develop the design of a unique, courageous aircraft with universal appeal. In the interior of the aircraft, classic fabrics for men's business suits — a thin strip and a dog's canine — were used everywhere. This design has become a reflection of his "alter-ego", whose roots go back to the banking past of his family.
According to Mr. Rausch, personal designer of Niki Lauda, ??a lot of light penetrating the Global 7500 salon through his enlarged windows allows designers to use darker materials both for cladding and finishing fabrics. It also allowed them to play with the reflections and directions of the light that permeates the salon. In this project, the new, fourth allocated residential compartment made it possible to design a separate passenger cabin in a slightly different way and with a different use of materials, while maintaining the elegant design to which the client was accustomed in another aircraft. The client can rest and relax in the cabin, until he pilots the plane, and use the rest of the cabin space for his business activities.
Facing rocks were chosen to both attract the eye and be elegant, and in combination with their multidirectional application are a unique feature of the cabin. Besides the fact that they used the lining on the block elements of the interior, Hannes found it necessary to use it for flooring the corridor and in both bathrooms. However, given the complex pattern of the lining, in all other areas of the cabin they turned to the minimalist approach, working with the same fabrics in different areas. Although this aircraft has some very unique features, its classic interior will always be relevant. Mr Laude really likes the interior of his current Global 6000 aircraft. The design of the new Global 7500 business jet is the perfect transition from its current aircraft.
As commented in Bombardier, the aircraft also surpasses the initial characteristics of the required take-off and landing distances and work in the so-called "difficult airports", such as Zion and St. Moritz in Switzerland. A business jet is able to directly connect New York with Hong Kong and Singapore to San Francisco with eight passengers and standard NBAA IFR fuel reserves. The nearest slot for the supply of a new aircraft is 2022. This year, the manufacturer plans to transfer to customers 15-20 Global 7500, with an increase in production rate to 35-40 in 2020. The company has over 110 firm orders for a new jets. In late January, Bombardier announced the final agreement on the acquisition of the production program of the wing for the Global 7500 business jet from Triumph Group Inc. According to the Canadian company, this acquisition will strengthen the position of Bombardier as a leading manufacturer of aircraft structures and will ensure the growth of production and the long-term success of Bombardier's flagship business jet.

Seaweed Biorefinery in Ghana – SeaBioGha
The project will establish cultivation of seaweed along Ghana's 540 km of coastline and establishing relevant technology, develop local know-how and new business opportunities for seaweed cultivation (i.e. farming) and processing of seaweed products in Ghana. The project will develop selective enzymatic technologies to extract valuable hydrocolloids, carrageenan, alginate, and fucoidan from seaweed. The technology is fit for local, smallscale enterprise and green growth in Ghana. The seaweed processing residues will be exploited for production of bioenergy, including bioelectricity by microbial fuel cells (resting on experiences developed in an ongoing DFC project among the partners). Sustainability aspects will be carefully considered to establish green processes. The project focus is:
1. Development of offshore seaweed farming in Ghana;
2. Development of local enzyme production and bio-catalytic extraction; technologies for sustainable extraction of target hydrocolloids;
3. Sustainability assessment;
4. Local training and entrepreneurship development for seaweed farming and seaweed processing business opportunities in Ghana.
Midterm report 2017:
Several red and brown types of Ghanaian seaweeds have been found to hold highly functional and hence valuable hydrocolloids with reological properties on par or better than the equivalent commercial carrageenan and alginate. Ghanaian Hypnea musciformis seaweeds is a source of commercial carrageenan. Hydropuntia seaweed contains agar. Ghanaian Sargassum sp. contain alginate, and Padina seaweed from Ghana have high-gelling alginates.
Cultivation of seaweeds in Ghana is preferable to collection to control quality.
Different types of green seaweeds respond differently to enzymatic conversion due their structure.
Study completed on: Environmental Location Assessment for Seaweed Cultivation in Ghana published).
Abundacy of seaweeds in Ghana; The major dry season showed the highest growth of seaweeds mostly all locations examined. this is likely due to high concentrations of nutrients during the dry season. Tema New Town and Old Ningo recorded the highest species richness and diversity of seaweeds. Work on biodiversity is ongoing.

Research paper topic ideas: useful sources with help
If you are looking for great topics consider these:
- Do abstinence programs actually work
- Why are there so many wars in Africa and what potential solutions are there
- Should certain advertisements be banned because they are unhealthy or immoral?
- Should the victims of airplane accidents be given compensation?
- Should governments use body scans to ensure airports are safe or are there better methods?
- Have U.S. policies to fight terrorism worked?
- Should pilots be armed?
- Should it is made illegal to use animals for entertainment?
Remember to include these elements:
- Introduction. The introduction is where you set up the main issue and grab the attention of the reader by introducing them to your thesis. The introduction is where you build up the issue at hand and set the stage for your argument. This first paragraph is incredibly important because you need to hook the interest of the reader. If you fail to do that, you will lose them.
- Paragraphs. Every paragraph in your paper needs to focus on a single idea which supports your thesis. Every paragraph needs to begin with a topic sentence and then express your ideas clearly, supported with evidence. You want to write as though your reader were there right in front of you.
- Conclusion. The conclusion is where you gracefully wrap up the paper. You want to leave the reader with an interesting quote, a memorable twist of logic, or a call to action. Let them know what you want them to walk away with when they finish reading your paper.
- Format. You need to format your paper according to the guidelines assigned to you. All paraphrased ideas and quotes must be properly supported with an in-text citation and a reference at the end of your paper. Be sure to note which of the style guides you are required to use for your paper. The most popular for English papers and humanities papers is MLA. The most popular for science and psychology is APA. Many other papers will use Chicago or Harvard style.
- Language. When you are finished writing the first draft, it is up to you to polish the language in your text. Make sure that you used correct grammar. Take time to ensure the sentences flow. Incorporate proper rhythm and emphasis and adjust the paper as necessary. Once you have finished proofreading it is time to edit the paper. Make sure your sentences are properly worded and there are no spelling errors.

I saw different midwives throughout my first pregnancy, they never actually took the time to answer any of my questions, I always felt kind of rushed out once they had done all the examinations they needed to do. The consultant was a little more helpful, actually listened to me and answered all my concerns. My first pregnancy was a walk in the park. I was incredibly ill but that wasn't actually linked to the pregnancy whatsoever so it was okay.
We get told tons and tons about actual pregnancy, whether it be through going to a pregnancy related class, attending midwife/consultant appointments and etc. But we don't get told about anything that may happen at birth or even after birth.
I feel like I was quite lucky with my first labour, everything went perfectly. I did have a third degree tear but it was stitched right back up and I didn't have any problems with it. But I know so many people around me weren't so lucky to have such an easy delivery. Some had to have intervention with forceps, others an emergency c-section for different reasons and etc. Hearing other people's birth stories, especially of those around me, really got me thinking how easy I had it and how screwed I would have been if that had been me. Nobody told me the possible things that could happen during labour or any interventions needed if anything went wrong and why. Another thing that got me thinking is that my next pregnancy may not be like my first and labour may not be like my first either so I want to be prepared. You can bet I'm going to be doing tons of research this time, just in case.
And last but not least, after birth. I feel like after birth was worse than labour. After I gave birth, it was like learning to sit and walk again. We had to stay in hospital for 24 hours due to Group B Strep (which may I add, I was only told we would need antibiotics but actually had to google what it was) and I couldn't get up the whole time. And yes, I was doing Christmas shopping within a couple of days of giving birth but the pain was so much worse when sitting down and standing still, rather than when I was moving so I tried to stay as active as I was able to. Nobody really told me to expect excessive amounts of bleeding for weeks, they also didn't tell me how to know my stitches were doing okay or not and what signs to look out for in case they became inflamed or infected. There's just so much they don't prepare us for.
But something positive did come from the lack of information from professionals, I was able to research lots and I feel so much more prepared for my next delivery with the next baby. I still remember everything that helped me from pain relief to little tips that made after-birth pain manageable. So I'm excited to use all I know from experience ready for next time.

Causes of Hair Loss
There are a number of factors that can contribute to hair loss in both men and women. Hair requires specific nutritional and hormonal conditions in which to properly thrive. This necessary balance can be affected by a number of factors. These factors include disease, malnutrition, hormonal imbalances, stressful lifestyles, and androgenetic alopecia, which is the most common cause of hair loss.
Androgenetic alopecia is a medical term that refers to a genetic predisposition for hair loss. Male hormones called androgens are a large factor in the disorder. There are three factors which lead to a diagnosis of androgenetic alopecia, these are: a genetic predisposition or family history of hair loss, the production of male hormones or androgens, and significant passage of time, which will allow the two factors to create the effects of balding.
All three of these factors must be present for androgenetic alopecia to be the cause of hair loss. Simply having a relative with baldness does not result in a diagnosis of this disorder. Having relatives who suffer from balding also does not mean that individuals are at a risk of hair loss. Additionally, having no relatives with hair loss does not mean that an individual should not or will not experience balding.
There are many causes of hair loss that are not necessarily genetic in nature. It is important to understand the potential causes of hair loss before pursuing a treatment option.

These days, most people rely on their mobile devices—such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops—for more than communication. In fact, mobile devices are quickly becoming the primary place to consume online content. But delivering mobile e-learning can be challenging thanks to dated SCORM-based content and delivery mechanisms.
Instead of relying on SCORM packages that require constant internet connections, xAPI effectively tracks mobile-friendly HTML5 content and even queues offline results to be shared once an internet connection is established. This means now you can easily view, track, and report on mobile content.
Deliver your learning however you see fit, without SCORM constraints.
Track mobile learning with as much or more detail than your current desktop-based learning.

Preqin is currently tracking 52 UK-based unlisted infrastructure fund managers, which make up a significant 36% of the total European infrastructure fund managers active in the space, and 15% of all infrastructure fund managers globally. Seventy-seven unlisted infrastructure funds in total have been closed by UK-based fund managers, raising an aggregate $54.7bn. There are currently 32 unlisted infrastructure funds on the road managed by UK-based GPs, seeking to raise a further $24.1bn.
Fifty-eight percent of UK-based infrastructure GPs are first time fund managers, while 25% have raised two funds, and 17% have raised three or more funds. This indicates that a substantial proportion of UK-based GPs in the unlisted infrastructure space are first time managers without a proven fundraising track record. This mirrors the wider market, with only few firms able to illustrate strong past performance. Macquarie Infrastructure and Real Assets (MIRA) is by far the most experienced UK-based fund manager (although it has offices based all over the world), having raised $27.5mn over the last 10 years, and managing 16 infrastructure funds in total. Other prominent UK-based GPs include EQT Funds Management, which has raised $4.2bn across two funds, and Innisfree, which has raised seven funds in total, securing $3.7bn in total capital commitments over the last ten years.
Unsurprisingly, Europe is the most commonly targeted region by funds managed by UK-based infrastructure GPs, with 76% of funds citing the region as their primary geographic focus. Eight percent focus investments primarily in Asia, 5% in North America, and 11% target investments outside of these regions. This suggests that although the UK boasts some of the largest and most active infrastructure fund managers in the market, relatively few look to invest outside of Europe, and West Europe in particular.
Notable unlisted infrastructure funds currently on the road being managed by UK-based GPs include Macquarie Infrastructure Partners III, Terra Firma Infrastructure Fund for Global Renewable Energy and UBS International Infrastructure Fund II. All three funds are seeking to raise $2bn in total capital commitments. Macquarie Infrastructure Partners III held a first close in September 2013 on $1.3bn.

- "We've made some modifications to the uniform. I had a little design input."
"The uniform? Aren't the stars and stripes a little... old fashioned?"
"With everything that's happening, the things that are about to come to light, people might just need a little old fashioned."
- ―Phil Coulson and Steve Rogers
Captain America's Uniform were sets of uniforms used by Captain Steve Rogers which served as his outfit during his superhero exploits. Fitting in with his identity as Captain America, each costume had a design representative of America, including his stealth costume, which had a more subtle stars and stripes motif.
USO Costume
- "You know for the longest time, I dreamed about coming overseas and being on the front lines. Serving my country. I finally get everything I wanted, and I'm wearing tights."
- ―Steve Rogers
Shortly following undergoing the procedure that turned him into a super soldier, Steve Rogers was denied the chance to serve on the battlefields of World War II. Instead, he was offered and accepted a position working with the USO, performing in stage shows to sell war bonds to promote the war. As part of his performance the USO created the image and identity of Captain America to serve as a mascot and symbol of nationalistic pride for the American people to rally behind and increase support for the war-front. Captain Rogers wore this costume in a number of stage shows in cities across America, as well as in a number of other images and iconography, including a number of fictionalized film reels of "Captain America" leading troops in the war, to help increase morale. [1]
Original Field Uniform
- "You're keeping the outfit, right?"
"You know what? It's kind of growing on me."
- ―Bucky Barnes and Steve Rogers
Strategic Scientific Reserve Field Uniform
- "I had some ideas about the uniform."
"Whatever you want, pal."
- ―Steve Rogers and Howard Stark
First Avengers Uniform
- "Ugh, Mr. Rogers. I almost forgot that that suit did nothing for your ass."
- ―Tony Stark to Captain America
STRIKE Stealth Uniform
Captain America's fourth uniform was a stealth uniform, given to him by S.H.I.E.L.D. for secret missions. The suit was a navy blue, utilitarian-style suit with a Kevlar-based ballistic component that could protect Captain America but at the same time function like a military black-ops uniform. It was used to retake command of the Lemurian Star and to escape from the Triskelion.[5]
After the events of the Infinity War, Steve Rogers used this uniform in the mission to the Garden, in order to retrieve the Infinity Stones.[4]
Smithsonian Golden Age Uniform
- "If you're gonna fight a war, you gotta wear a uniform."
- ―Steve Rogers
Second Avengers Uniform
- "That's all set up, boss."
"Actually, he's the boss. I just pay for everything and make everyone look cooler."
- ―Maria Hill and Tony Stark
Third Avengers Uniform
Captain America adopted a modified version of his second Avengers uniform as the leader of a new team of Avengers. He later removed the Avengers logos on his shoulders following the ratification of the Sokovia Accords.[8] This version of the uniform dispensed with the electromagnets, re-adopting the more traditional straps.
After the Battle at the HYDRA Siberian Facility, Steve Rogers went on the run. While in hiding, he removed the star from the center of his uniform and disposed of his helmet. Eventually, the entire suit was dirtied into a slightly darker color with more rips around the center, exposing the chain mail/linked scales underneath the outfit.[9]
Fourth Avengers Uniform
Five years after the Snap, Steve Rogers used a much newer uniform that resembled his last one, which had the chain mail/linked scales on it; however, the scales were now exposed, unlike the last one, where it was hidden under the outfit. He later used it during the attack on the New Avengers Facility and their final battle against Thanos and his army.[4]
- According to Paddy Whitaker in The Art of Captain America: The First Avenger, the fabric used to make Captain America's second suit was a ballistic nylon which is the same material they used to make horse blankets.[10]

CNN Says It's Serious About Election Coverage
CNN kicked off its own campaign last week in New York, trotting out its star anchors and correspondents for media buyers and advertisers to preview its coverage plans for the 2004 presidential race.
The news net's top stars—from the colorful Crossfire
cast to anchors Lou Dobbs, Wolf Blitzer and Paula Zahn—turned out to share their election predictions and hype the net's "America Votes 2004" coverage. (NewsNight
anchor Aaron Brown was a no-show.)
CNN execs sold the cable network as the elder statesman of cable news, crowing about their organization's breadth of experience.
"Over the past 24 years, we have proven that we are the network of record for covering this process," said Executive Vice President of Ad Sales Greg D'Alba. "We have proven we're the network of record for covering news."
What CNN couldn't tout, though, is a ratings advantage over rival Fox News Channel. The cable news landscape is very different from what it was when President George W. Bush was elected in 2000. Fox News Channel has surpassed CNN in ratings—including during breaking-news events—and competes handily for ad dollars.
D'Alba did predict that CNN, which averaged a 0.7 in prime for the third quarter, would make ratings gains during the election coverage.
But, as much as CNN wants to stay on message over the next year, other stories—from Scott Peterson's trial to the Kobe Bryant case—threaten to become distractions.
"Those stories are part of the cable news universe," senior political analyst Jeff Greenfield acknowledged, "They are not going to be covered as much as smothered."
Still, he cautioned, "we will not be leaving or abandoning this race."
Whether his troops are covering Kobe or former Gov. Howard Dean, CNN News Group President Jim Walton wants his network to "be thoughtful" and give these stories "the appropriate amount of weight." Of course, that amount is widely debated at CNN and across the news industry. "But it's our hope that everything we do at CNN resonates class."
As part of its election coverage, CNN is expanding anchor Judy Woodruff's political newscast Inside Politics
to an hour beginning Nov. 3 and adding a Sunday-morning edition. CNN's reporters and anchors will go on the road in CNN's "Election Express," a bus outfitted as a mobile TV studio and bureau. (ABC News recently unveiled three similar vehicles.)
The network is hoping for a big boost in ad revenue for its coverage. D'Alba estimates that it could pull in "upwards of $30 million" through sponsorships and packages across its properties. Automaker Daimler Chrysler has signed on as a sponsor, and CNN is seeking five more sponsors.
NBC News and MSNBC Senior Vice President of Ad Sales Jim Hoffman said his networks, which also include CNBC and Telemundo's news, will offer advertisers a variety of packaging options. "We have the flexibility to offer packages from $5 million to $16 million, depending on clients' needs."

New Jersey becomes 3rd state to raise smoking age to 21
Here's the latest: New White House Communications Director named; Strong quake rocks Aegean resorts; Palestinians clash with Israeli troops over metal detectors; and President Donald Trump meets with USS Arizona survivors.
TRENTON - New Jersey has become the third state in the country to raise its smoking age to 21.
Republican Gov. Chris Christie signed into law Friday a measure that raises the age from 19.
Hawaii and California are the only other states whose smoking age is 21.
More: Officials vote to ban smoking on Wildwood boardwalk
More: NJ again spends nothing on anti-smoking efforts
More: Evesham police: Man recorded another man in Chick-Fil-A restroom
The restriction applies to tobacco products and electronic smoking devices.
Christie vetoed a similar measure last year.
On Friday he cited the strain on the health care system caused by tobacco-related illnesses.
He also noted that his mother died from the effects of smoking and said raising the age gives young people more time to better understand smoking's dangers.

I tried out quite a lot of new products and brands in 2016, but reviewing my favourites is quite interesting as I can see I have some ultimate favourites which may never change! However, I am very open to finding new favourite products in 2017! This is part 1 featuring mainly face and base products. Continue reading
New Year Makeup resolutions
Haven't yet decided on a New Year resolution? How about a New Year makeup resolution? Last year I set myself the resolution of not spending so much money on makeup and it went really well. I became more aware of my spending along with what I already owned. Today I am sharing my New Year makeup resolution ideas and tips to help you achieve your goals! Continue reading
MAC pink lipstick comparisons
Isn't it funny how when you are a fan of a particular colour you unconsciously collect lipsticks in that shade, although you swear in the shop they looked totally different?! For me it all started with my first ever MAC Cosmetics purchase of Saint Germain, the perfect Barbie pink, and I've been collecting lipsticks on the paler side of cool toned pink for years now. Today I'm going to do a MAC pink lipsticks comparison of these four lipsticks, which are all super beautiful in their own way, but also a little similar. Continue reading
Colourpop X Hello Kitty Haul
My Colourpop X Hello Kitty haul is finally here! Okay, and yes I got a few other bits and pieces too! The new limited edition collection went live on the 1st of November (Hello Kitty's birthday) and some of the range is still currently in stock. There is a selection of lip, eye and face products in the collection along with a super cute makeup bag. I grabbed the 'Mama's Apple Pie' eyeshadow quad set, two of the lip products and the 'School is Fun' highlighter from the Hello Kitty Collection. I also bought two super shock shadows and a new brow pencil to try out. Continue reading

Big Bucket Haul – November
Here is my November Big Bucket Haul! I heard that Big Bucket Sales are closing down, so I thought I better go before they end forever (although I'll be honest I'm not sure if I believe they are actually closing down? I feel it could be like those rug sales that are forever popping up!). As always I was keen to pop in to get some dry shampoo as it is one of my life essentials. And I was keen to see what else was there and whether the closing down prices would be super cheap. It turned out that they had an extra 30% off marked prices for all cosmetic items, which meant I got some pretty sweet bargains. Continue reading
Remington Silk Italia Hair Dryer
The Remington Silk Italia Hair Dryer is my new favourite beauty tool. Nothing improves my mornings more than being able to dry my hair quickly and having it look and feel soft and silky before I rush out the door to work. For the past year or so I have gone through a range of pretty terrible hair dryers, including one which literally caught on fire while I was using it! So, when I was given the chance to try out this new Italian made Remington dryer I couldn't wash my hair fast enough! Continue reading
Covergirl Katy Kat Blue Mascara
The Covergirl Katy Kat blue mascara is part of the new Covergirl Katy Kat range. The range includes waterproof and non waterproof mascaras along with eleven shades of matte lipsticks. I had a bit of a thing for blue mascara during my early teenage years (who didn't?!) and this new Katy Perry range convinced me to give it another go! Continue reading

Cedar Cabana Revival
This cedar cabana was built a few years back and was left to the elements. Untreated cedar turns gray and looks dull within a year. To bring it back to life, we applied a wood rejuvenator wash and worked it in with a stiff bristled brush. We then applied a Cabot oil stain. Cabot allows the wood to breathe as oppossed to most stains which seal the wood. Moisture gets trapped underneath wood and has to escape. If it is sealed, it simply pushes off any stain that is on it. This is the reason people have to restain their decks every few years.

There is someone I work with who is a bottleneck and I need to work with her daily. I've tried talking with her and have done everything I can think of to get what I need from her. I'm so frustrated. I'm dependent upon her so I can complete my work. What can I do to get her moving? – Korry in Knoxville, TN
TINA: This is where your management team can be helpful. First, though, I would literally map out the process of your interaction with this person. What are the steps that should take place to enable the process to flow? By doing this, you will identify the specific areas that need to be addressed. I would review this flow chart with your co-worker for feedback – adjust as necessary. This provides a working tool from which you can develop a solution. If your co-worker is not willing to add to the flow chart, then you have specific evidence that can be presented to your management team for guidance.
LYNN: Korry, I experienced this same situation many years ago. This is what worked for me. First, I talked to my manager and asked for his suggestions on how I could improve the situation. I did not make it about my co-worker. Rather, I was being proactive, positive, and striving for a win-win resolution.
My manager suggested I briefly explain why I needed the material, and when. Stick to the facts. That way my request did not come across as arbitrary. He reminded me to be aware of my tone and choose my words. My frustration could easily be creeping into my communication. Negativity never inspires anyone.
In addition, he pointed out that our styles, mine and my co-worker's, were very different. He introduced me to the concept of style flexing. Adjusting my style to meet those of another's and to find common ground. It turned out to be an invaluable skill to learn for my career.

Airsoft gun care
It is important that you look after your gun; it needs to be thoroughly cleaned every time you use it. Airsoft gun care is very important if you want your gun to last for some time and not pack-up after a few months. Especially if you have been using it in sandy environments, your gun is likely to be more dirty than usual, so extra thorough cleaning is essential. If you use an AEG airsoft, the correct thing to do would be to fire about three shots into just the semi automatic mode in order to decompress the spring of the gun's gearbox after a bit of firing. However, with some airsoft guns, there is simply a button that you push and the decompression of the spring will be done.
You should also empty the magazine if you want to protect the power of the spring. What you also need to pay attention to when interested in airsoft gun care is spraying a non-corrosive spray onto the barrel and also occasionally spraying the hop-up chamber, but not as often as you would spray the barrel. This is the procedure that is normally followed with airsoft guns, it is said to keep the gun in working order for a lot longer than it would last without any airsoft gun care. Caring for a gun is always an important task, but even when just handling the gun, you have to be careful too. Although it is a gun, it is actually a very delicate weapon.
The magazine of a gas gun is to be left pressurized. This is so that all of the seals stay in one piece. However, if the gas that is used contains any silicon lubricant then there is normally no need for any further lubrication. If it doesn't have any traces of silicon lubricant, what you should do then is just add a drop or two of it to the internals of the gun. There is just one more very important rule to remember when talking about airsoft gun care, but also vital, is safety. When you are releasing the gas from the gun, never do so using the release valve (This is the valve that can be found on the magazine), because the gas that is being expelling may freeze the o-ring of the gun and this can very likely lead to gas leakage.
Airsoft gun care is essential, but one will be surprised at how many gun-owners take no pride in their airsoft. Make sure your gun is clean before using it each time.
