Wine Details
Wine Description
(From 2012 Vintage) There's a hint of floral aromas on the nose, with vanilla, oak spice and even a touch of pepper. Full bodied red fruit flavors typical for Cabernet are joined by notes of currant and blackberry with moderate, well-integrated tannins with wonderful balance and a soft, round, almost lush mouthfeel.
Winemaker's Notes
(From 2013 Vintage) Full bodied, with classic Cabernet red fruit flavors set off by aromas and flavors of currant and blackberry, the Allomi Cab is noted for moderate, well-integrated tannins showing a round, plush mouthfeel. Distinct notes of vanilla and oak spice from aging in American oak add to the personality of the wine, surely one of our most popular Napa offerings.
Earthy flavors enhance the fruit flavors in this wine, especially with foods such as herb roasted chicken, grilled pork, caramelized onions, eggplant, sautéed greens, roasted potatoes or vegetables and aged Jack and Gouda cheese.

There's an interesting article this morning by Phil Rogers suggesting the Cubs aren't done and are going after at least one more top prospect..
This despite already being well over their spending pool, by one estimate $629,700 but that doesn't seem to include the most recent signing/agreement of C Johan Matos, whom we mentioned a couple of days ago. He signed for $270K, which would make the overage approach around $900,ooo mark. But all of that is speculative as exact amounts aren't known yet.
But here's the thing...the Cubs aren't done yet. And what that could mean is that the Cubs may just ignore the limit and incur the penalties for next season. The Cubs front office is enamored with this class at the top end and aren't as optimistic about next year's class, according to Rogers. So the possibility is that the Cubs could continue to pursue whomever they want and then live with the luxury tax and, more importantly, the $250,000 limit they can spend on any player next year. With uncertainty about next year's class, they could just go for volume next year.
Of course, the Cubs may just be blowing smoke here. They've already twice traded for pool money, indicating that they had no intention of exceeding the spending limit. They've also been careful to not officially sign everyone so as to give themselves the opportuntity to trade for more pool money. If they didn't care about the limit, why bother waiting at all?
Perhaps with their hearts set on all the players they've already agreed with and/or signed so far this season, teams are trying to extort a good prospect or player and the Cubs are unable to complete trades. At some point the value of more seasoned prospects exceed what's available on the international market. It's one thing to trade a prospect like Ronald Torreyes if it means signing a special talent like Eloy Jimenez, but maybe not the same when it comes to signing some of the lower ranked players still available. If the Cubs don't have as much esteem for next year's class, then trading for this year's crops "in exchange" for the guys next year makes a lot more sense than trading current prospects or players they'd rather hang on to.
You may also recall that ESPN's Sahadev Sharma wrote that acquiring pool money was not a priority, according to Theo Epstein. When they did that right off the bat with the Scott Feldman/Steve Clevenger deal and then the Torreyes deal, the first thought was maybe that he'd pulled the wool over our eyes. We wouldn't blame him if he didn't want to reveal his strategy. But today's article seems to indicate that perhaps he wasn't being deceptive at all. They will try and trade for pool money, but the key phrase is that it is not a priority.
But then why bother trading Torreyes at all? That's where it gets kind of interesting. It could just be as simple as the Cubs making an attempt to acquire pool money at the outset, but now find themselves running into a stalemate when it comes to negotiating a deal for more money. In that case you would rightfully say that the Cubs misjudged the market and basically gave Torreyes away for what amounts to nothing if they're going to exceed the limit anyway.
But there's another possible explanation. The Cubs may have soured on Torreyes as a prospect and the idea of trading him meant little to them in terms of losing value. I can't help thinking back to the beginning of the year when Torreyes showed up about a week late to spring training. Even though the seemed to get back up to speed quickly, the Cubs held him back when the AA season started anyway. And even when he was activated, he played sparingly to start the year. It made me wonder whether this wasn't just your garden variety visa issue. Perhaps there's more to that story that we don't know about. It's just speculation and I don't want to delve into that, but it seemed to me the Cubs were making a point by holding him back.
So in that sense, maybe they figured they'd unload a guy they didn't value highly anymore and give it a shot to see if they can recoup as much pool money as they could. If it didn't work out, they were ready to absorb that loss.
Of course, what makes it even easier to absorb that loss is the presence of Javier Baez, who has made significant progress this season and is having an excellent season at Daytona. He may be ready for a promotion to AA and while Torreyes was a 2B and not technically blocking Baez, there was SS Arismendy Alcantara, whom we consider the Cubs 5th best prospect. Should we read anything into the fact that Alcantara has strictly played 2B since Torreyes was dealt. Could the Cubs be making room for Baez at Tennessee? The consensus has been that Alcantara would eventually move to 2B anyway and now that he is perhaps a year away from the big leagues, the Cubs are beginning that transition now. If that's the case, they weren't going to let a decent, but not great, prospect like Torreyes get in the way. The Cubs don't lack for utility type prospects, especially if they only play one position well. If Torreyes doesn't start at 2B --which is likely, his lack of speed, defensive versatility, and power doesn't give him a ton of value off the bench.
But we can't forget the main point and that is that the Cubs are looking to load up on international talent this year. As Rogers said, they have their eye on at least one top prospect and the speculation is that it could be two players who have yet to turn 16,
The two most intriguing guys still out there are Dominican 15-year-olds Luis Encarnacion and Leonardo Molina, who aren't eligible to sign until their 16th birthdays. Molina, a speedy center fielder who is extremely athletic, turns 16 on Aug. 1; Encarnacion, a third baseman with raw power, turns 16 on Aug. 9.
Those two players certainly seem to fit the Cubs profile. Molina as an athletic, middle of the field player and Encarnacion as a player with plus power potential at a corner spot. In a sense, given their age, they could be the Cubs de facto 2014 signings anyway. Molina is the 5th rated player in this class and Encarnacion is the 4th.
We could find out more today as the Cubs are reportedly set to finalize the Eloy Jimenez deal. If no trade is announced in conjunction, that means the Cubs are officially over the limit and can no longer make trades to make up the money. And if that's the case, expect them to continue going after top international players with no regard to any of the CBA's imposed spending limits.

Crabtree Brewing Co. will mark its fifth anniversary today with a party and a celebration of the brewery's latest release, "5."
The special beer is a fifth anniversary Belgian Abby made with coriander, orange peel and fresh raisins, 44 pounds of which owner Jeff Crabtree caramelized on brew day in April 2010. The beer aged a year in five wine barrels, only three of which had "everything developed the way I wanted," he said.
Crabtree said "5," which is bottled in 750-milliliter bottles, was an instant success, with all 60 cases immediately sold to local and select liquor stores, including 10 cases to stores in Nebraska.
"That's the fastest we've ever sold beer, but this is the best beer we've ever produced," he said.
Today's party, which will include live music, will be from 5-8 p.m. at Crabtree Brewing, 625 3rd St. The "5" will be available for sale.
The brewery has increased production by 40 percent in the past year and is on track for a 38 percent increase in overall business this year, Crabtree said.
The brewery will have four new 10-BBL tanks delivered and in operation by May 15, he said. BBL amounts to 31 gallons of beer and is an American standard in measuring beer.
Crabtree has established a reputation for seasonal and innovative beers using an array of ingredients " the Golden 8 and Dearfield Ale among them " and the owner says customers can expect that trend to continue.
"We're trying to get on the same level as other high-end barrel beer providers like Russian River, and we've got a sour beer coming up. This ("5") is the beer that's the catalyst to getting us up and running," Crabtree said. "I'm pumped about the barrel project. I got into the brewery business because I like to brew beer, and I don't like to wait for it. I can't believe I waited for a year for this."

A form of music which should do as its name suggests and be put to death. Simply a waste of space and instruments. It's quite immature hearing about satan and killing people over and over.
Why does every song on this Cannible Corpse cd sound the same?
Because they have no talent and all they can do is bang instruments and growl about giving head to Satan.

There are so many interesting things to write about right now. I have remedial blogging to do on the question of bad beer. There's Pete Coors' recent cri de coeur about big beer's struggles. I've been sitting on a post about Old Town Brewing. And there's the question of women, machismo, and beer styles--another post I'll get to one day. But it seems I still can barely figure out the order of subjects and objects, adjectives and adverbs, and so the blogging drought continues. Sorry--

A sub genre of heavy metal in which the best bands are the least musical.
rooooooooooooooar!!!!!!!!!!!! death metal makes me kill!!!!!!!!!!!! r0ar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
автор: dfsfsd 30 декабря 2004
The crap that bands make when they can't think of anything good. Usually reserved for the most untalented.
Even my bro can play death metal.
автор: Mikel jo 1 декабря 2005
a sad excuse for metal music makes people believe that all metal is screaming and people who wear too much black and want to cut your head off. Take the devil sign to extreme and actually worship the devil will usually have odd hair and odd faces
anything that sucks and screams alot like deatttttttttttthhhhhh is on the way YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
автор: Dusty Cherr 12 декабря 2004
A category for bands who can't sing or play their instruments very well, so they have to play them really loud and fast and scream into the mic, hoping no one will notice.
Death metal sucks large quantities of ass.
автор: King Asshat XVIII of Asshatia 19 апреля 2005
A form of music which should do as its name suggests and be put to death. Simply a waste of space and instruments. It's quite immature hearing about satan and killing people over and over.
Why does every song on this Cannible Corpse cd sound the same?
Because they have no talent and all they can do is bang instruments and growl about giving head to Satan.

When untalented musicians get together and make ridiculous music using drop C power chords and double bass drum rolls in attempt to show their hate for God, or the government or whatever they don't believe in.
Ex. Lamb of God, Slipknot, Slayer

A sesame seed-size parasite that feeds on human blood, the head louse (Pediculus humanus capitis) is a nuisance known around the world. These tiny insects infest human hair and can also sometimes be found in the eyebrows and eyelashes.
An estimated 6 million to 12 million head lice infestations occur each year in the United States among children ages 3 to 11, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). While school-age kids are believed to be those most commonly affected by lice, it's possible for people of any age to become infested with these flightless pests.
Signs & symptoms
Some people with lice never realize they're infested. However, there are several telltale signs that the bugs are present on the scalp, according to the Mayo Clinic. These include:
- A ticklish feeling on the scalp or neck.
- An itchy scalp (the result of an allergic reaction to the bug's saliva).
- Small red bumps on the scalp, neck and shoulders.
- The presence of lice on the scalp.
- The presence of nits (lice eggs) on shafts of hair.
- Difficulty sleeping, which can lead to irritability.
Some people with lice may also develop sores on their scalp. Such sores are likely the result of bacteria from the person's own body infecting an opening in the skin made by scratching, according to the CDC.
Because head lice are not known to spread disease in the United States, they should not be considered a "medical or public health hazard," according to the CDC. However, several studies conducted in recent years in other areas of the world, including Africa, suggest that certain species of head lice are capable of carrying infectious disease.
One study, outlined in the May 2013 issue of the journal Emerging Infectious Disease, found that head lice in the Democratic Republic of the Congo could spread plague. And another study, outlined in the same journal in May 2014, found that human body lice carrying a pathogen that can cause trench fever — among other diseases — can also inhabit human hair.
Diagnosis & tests
The best way to confirm an active lice infestation is to find a live louse on the head, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP). Because lice move quickly and avoid light, it's best to check for them after wetting the hair, which some experts say slows the insects down.
The most effective way to check for lice is to use a louse comb, according to the AAP. In a study published in 2001 in the journal Pediatric Dermatology, researchers found that using a louse comb was four times more effective than simply doing a visual check of the scalp for lice and that checks with the louse comb could be performed two times faster than visual checks.
Dandruff, dirt and other common debris found in the hair are commonly confused for lice, according to the CDC. Therefore, the best person to perform a head check for lice may be someone trained to identify these parasites, like a health care provider or school nurse.
If no live lice are found on the scalp, finding nits firmly attached to the hair shaft within a quarter inch of the scalp may indicate that a person is infested, according to the CDC. However, it's important to confirm that an infestation of head lice is actually active before pursuing treatment, according to the AAP.
Nits from previous lice infestations can remain attached to hair shafts, even if no live lice are present on the scalp. To make future diagnoses of lice easier, as well as to ensure that no living nits remain in the hair, all nits should be removed from the hair, even after the infestation has been treated, according to the National Pediculosis Association (NPA), a nonprofit organization that does not support the use of insecticides to treat lice.
Treatment & medication
The ideal treatment is one that is "completely safe, free of harmful chemicals, readily available without a prescription, easy to use and inexpensive," according to the AAP.
There are several treatment options for those with head lice, including shampoos and creams that contain pediculicides, or insecticides that kill lice, as well as combing the hair with a louse comb that removes lice and nits. Neither one of these treatments options is 100 percent effective at removing all lice or nits from hair.
When choosing a treatment for lice, people should be aware that, in some areas of the United States and Europe, lice have developed resistance to some of the most common pediculicides found in both over-the- counter and prescription lice treatments. The CDC recommends consulting with a doctor or pharmacist to determine what treatments are best to use.
If no resistance to insecticides is suspected, the AAP recommends using products that contain pediculicides known as pyrethrins or the chemical permethrin. However, these chemicals are known to be toxic to humans and should be used with caution, according to the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry.
If you choose to use a chemical treatment for lice, be sure to follow dosing instructions correctly and consult with your health care provider if you plan to use these treatments on a child under age 2, according to the CDC.
To minimize exposure to the insecticides found in lice treatment shampoos, rinse the scalp and hair well with cool water after applying these products and try to avoid exposing skin (other than the skin on the scalp) to these products, according to the Canadian Pediatric Society. If you are bathing a child, rinse the treatment out of the hair over a sink. Do not place the child in a bath as the hair is being rinsed.
If the lice in your area are resistant to permethrin and pyrethrins, the AAP recommends using a product containing 0.5 percent malathion, another insecticide that is rubbed into the hair and scalp. Malathion has not been deemed safe or effective to use in children younger than 6, and the product is not safe to use in children younger than 24 months, according to the AAP. Neither malathion nor permethrin and pyrethrins effectively kill all of the egg stages of lice. This means that these chemicals need to be reapplied to the scalp seven to 10 days after the initial treatment.
There are also several other chemicals that can be used to treat lice, including lindane, which is available as a cream or a shampoo. This chemical has been known to cause severe seizures in children and cannot be prescribed to individuals who weigh less than 110 pounds (49.9 kilograms), according to the AAP. Other chemical treatments have also been linked to dangerous side effects in children, which is why organizations such as the NPA do not recommend the use of chemical treatments for lice.
The manual removal of lice recommended by the NPA can be performed using the same type of fine-toothed louse comb used to check the scalp for lice. Louse combs can be used on wet or dry hair, though some experts suggest that combing out lice and nits is easier on wet hair. Some people may also wish to use a conditioner before combing out the hair, according to the NPA.
Preventing the spread
Once a case of head lice is confirmed, the best way to prevent spread is to thoroughly treat and get rid of the head lice. Avoiding head-to-head contact as much as possible will also help curb an infestation, according to the CDC.
Although a less-frequent cause of spread, lice can travel from one person to another via shared clothing and accessories, such as hats, brushes and hair accessories. People with lice should avoid sharing these items with others, and should also avoid sharing a bed with siblings or friends. Though rare, lice can spread from person to person through infested upholstery or bed linens.
Once a person is treated for lice, all bedding, upholstered furniture, carpets, hairbrushes and other items that had direct contact with that person's scalp should be thoroughly cleaned, according to the CDC. Clothes and bedding can be washed in hot water, hairbrushes and hair accessories can be boiled, rugs or other non-washable items can be dry cleaned, and items that can't be washed or dry cleaned can be stored in airtight containers for several weeks to ensure that live lice and nits do not survive.
Finally, vacuum carpeted floors and clean all furniture to prevent the spread of lice to others. Measures such as fumigation are not necessary and should be avoided, according to the CDC.
While some schools follow a "no-nit" policy that requires children with lice to stay at home, the AAP does not recommend such policies. The NPA, however, supports stringent no-nit policies in schools.

Americans are a generous people. During the holiday season, we are busy buying gifts and donating to the needy. We were quick to write a check or text funds when a typhoon struck the Philippines.
But this Thanksgiving, I can't help wondering why the biggest humanitarian crisis in a decade is getting so little attention. I'm referring to Syria, where nearly one third of the population, almost 7 million people, has either fled the country or is displaced and struggling to survive inside Syria. Half of the two million Syrians who have escaped to neighboring countries are children.

Well cyndaquill is always my starter in GSC (crystal mostly xD) and I like the sound of the name of typhlosion so I started to use it as my nickname and the "stars" are just a finishing touch xD
You're right, hate is a strong word, but dislike seemed too "kind" xD
I just finished having dinner, and you are already giving me hungry xD
My grades are mediocre, but they could be better if I wasn't such a lazy guy xD

But awww, I'm sure you didn't embarrass yourself, we've all been there before on forums! I remember getting a warning on another forum one time for having a large signature. Disappeared from there for a few days when that happened since I was so embarrassed haha.
You wouldn't? xD I'm surprised to be honest xD
You're almost there, keep up and you'll finish it in no time
I have to say that I'm not a very good fan of forums xD And because I thought my introduction was stupid I felt a little embarrassed xD I'm glad that I never had problems with my signature, mostly because I rarely use it xDD
Until I come up with something better this will do xD

PSU faculty pose suggested changes to trustees
STATE COLLEGE -- Pennsylvania State University's board of trustees should add academic representatives to the school's governing body, a faculty group said Monday in the latest recommendations for governance reforms after the Jerry Sandusky child molestation scandal.
The report from a Penn State faculty senate committee is thought to be the first recommendations from a group affiliated with the university.
Former FBI director Louis Freeh, who was hired by the school to investigate its handling of sexual abuse allegations against the former assistant football coach and then-Auditor General Jack Wagner are among the others who have weighed in with suggestions for the school.
"One of the best means of ensuring that the Board understands the mission, values, unique structures and operating systems of the complex academic institution that it governs is to select members who have academic expertise and professional experience in higher education," the report said.
The lack of academic representation on a school governing board has been a question raised at institutions across the country, according to the faculty.
Freeh's report accused three high-ranking university officials, including former President Graham Spanier, of helping to cover up complaints about Sandusky.

Got my phone yesterday. Fantastic bit of kit except ActiveSynk 4.0 does not work. Has anybody had this problem and more so got a solution? QTEC don't seem to have a web site?!?
i dont understand why they stick to 64K display when others have 256K. Anyone got any idea ?
http://www.expansys.com/produc...?code=124833 Now In stock.. Mine will be with me tomorrow:D
The Qtek 9100 is a very nice PDA. But I would prefer UMTS in stead of Edge. Anybody knows when UMTS will be available on a Qtek with the same size as the Qtek 9100?
will this mobile 9100 be available with an
"azerty" display ??????????
Can anyone please let me know if this phone comes with pocket Office softwares? Will this phone work in US?
I think this is defo the phone for me. Its just a shame that no matter where i order it from noone can seem to supply it. Does any one know where i can get it?
this phone is the coolest thing out there for now. I have seen the movie and pictures, read reviews...its just an amazing device. I wish I kne when they are going to roll it nation wide. I hope the price is not tool high too.
for Chinese support, read here
Here is why the 195 MHz is faster:
You should have no problem at all switching SIM cards. I currently use skype on my WIFI PDA with Pocket PC 2003. Since this device uses Windows Mobile 5.0 I am not sure there is a verison of Skype or if the Pocket PC version works for it.
I am also interested in buying this little beauty.
BTW I am from UK and live in Spain.
Hi there! This look like my next upgrade. I would like some more info on the new Texas Instruments OMAP 850, 195 Mhz processor. Where can I find out more? Why do they say this processor is faster than the Intel 400MHz + processors?
I need some basic introduction to the world of the PDA & QTEK 9100.
I am currently working between UK & Spain. As such I spend the majority of my time travelling & I feel it would be beneficial to use a PDA for calls, faxes, e-mails and using the Internet.
I am a big fan of Skype. Would I be able to use Skype with the QTEK 9100, how would it work out with regard to price?
Also, would it work if I were to switch from a UK to a Spanish SIM Card?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
With 1gb minisd...it will be a perfect phone..with keypad,wifi,..hope camera is improved version...
Well there are 1G mini SD from sandisk, I think it SHOULD working on Qtek 9100, by the way, Does anyone know where can we download the User Manual ???? Thanks
There was a post befor that it uses miniSD and that means maximum is 512mb, why? There are 1g miniSDs so what should there be a problem with that?
Also what do u think is better qtek 9100 or qtek 2020i? Please suggest :)
Of course nothing beats the qtek 9000, which is like god, but thats way to pricy!

Operating and Cash Cycles [L01] Is it possible for a firm's cash cycle to be longer than its operating cycle? Explain why or why not.
Use the following information to answer Questions 6-10: Last month, BlueSky Airline announced that it would stretch out its bill payments to 45 days from 30 days. The reason given was that the company wanted to "control costs and optimize cash flow." The increased payables period will be in effect for all of the company's 4,000 suppliers.

Several dozen runners jogged more than five miles on the roads around Valley Forge National Historical Park on Sunday morning to protest the park's being shuttered during the partial federal government shutdown.
The runners were inspired after John Bell, a Chadds Ford marathoner, received a $100 ticket last week for jogging in the park during the closure.
Several runners' groups, including Bell's group, Runderlust, gathered at 9 a.m. for what they dubbed a "Patriots' Run."
The park has popular running trails free of traffic. The runners on Sunday, however, stayed on the shoulder of roads that circle and cut through the park - and that remain open to car traffic.

Whether you can do it in a month or not is hard to say, it depends on a lot of factors.
Is this a month working full time? Or part time? Or a few hours a week?
Are you writing it from scratch or using existing software.
Are you doing all the artwork yourself? Do you have much digital art experience?
For the type of game it looks like you want to make you will spend most of the time on artwork I think. For the software side I would recommend you take a look at the Unity engine and have a look at Fungus (http://fungusgames.com) on the asset store. It's free and makes it very easy to make an interactive story type game.
Good luck.

i had the samsung tocco lite before this and the wave 525 is much better - it has a brilliant screen, easy to use, lots of great features (apps, web browsing is good pages load fast, not bad camera etc...).
On the down side its battery side isnt great and the radio is quite poor and it can be quite breaky, the back cover takes a genius and a lot of strength to take off.
Still, it is a good mobile and you diffinutly get what you pay for. I would recommend it… Read Full Review

This article may not be so flattering for some Spurs fans and it could lead to a bit of self-kicking about selling certain players. I thought it might be interesting, however, to take a look at where some of our rejects (or not so rejected) are now.
Two notable players not on this list are Giovani dos Santos and Dimitar Berbatov. Dos Santos isn't on the list, well, because he hasn't left yet. I expect his departure, should it come, will cause him to improve as a player. Only time will tell.
The other—Berbatov—is debatable but in my "expert" opinion, he improved after moving to Manchester United, becoming at one point their leading scorer.
Because Manchester United is a team that plays at a consistently higher level than Tottenham, Berbatov's performances in United Red will be graded on a curve compared to his Spurs history.
My argument was thrown a bit of a curve this season because the Bulgarian has been forced to play most of his games alongside the aged Michael Owen in the occasional cup game.

Sirvan Khosravi- �Saate 9�
IranGaam (Iran)
2009 (1388)
Sirvan Khosravi recently released the follow up to the reported commercial failure, but ironically incredibly popular debut album (which makes the equation add up in illegal downloading). During these past years Sirvan has created and produced for other domestic artists, making a living according to himself, while his fans have eagerly been waiting for the new direction of his own music. Since two years ago he announced that he would abandon his established TRANCE base for something new. Sirvan has recently said in the press that he hardly listens to Iranian music and that his musical favorites are Elton John and Eros Ramazotti. Sirvan�s younger brother Zanyar who goes under the stage-name Xaniar (X is phonetically read Z, like Xanadu) and had a creative role in his brother�s debut is back with an equally creative part in the current album as both lyricist and composer. Xaniar has recently aspired to a solo career and some of his songs and videos have been distributed online without legal permit, mainly via his brother�s website. For the rest of the compositions and the entire arrangements stand Sirvan himself and Omid Atharinejad is responsible for two songs� lyrics. �Saate 9� and its 10 tracks have been in the making since 2004 and now released on IranGaam. With a cover image depicting Sirvan in London, of course just photoshopically!
The album kicks off with the strongest track on the album. �Che Haali Daare� is one of the songs that are heavily inspired by Cameron Cartio�s music and his rapid-fire style of singing! This is a well-made and delivered POP-HOUSE fare which serves the album as both an adequate opener and HIT.
Next comes the first song in the albums range of experimental POP songs. The ballad �Emrooz Mikhaam Behet Begam �� is not a bad ballad per se, in fact a rather well-made one. However it is not that compatible with the Iranian musical mentality, meaning that it lacks those familiar ingredients that make you recognize and welcome the song. I chose to call this type of fillers wall-flowers!
�Aare� is the next song which borrows a lot from the Cartio sound and style and also the song �CC Baby� by Farzam Feiz. Compare the vocal-styles and you�ll get the awkward resemblance! I think Sirvan should reconsider much of the things he has claimed in regards to the strictly non-Iranian sources of inspiration for this album.
Another wall-flower which could have been a perfect forgettable song on Eurovision, but in an Iranian setting it becomes even less that that! It lacks relevance and appeal. �Zendegi Hamin Emrooze� says the title and so is the expiration date of the song!
Now back to some more recognizable sound, the throbbing beats get the song rocking and the vocals manage to keep the balance, barely! �Mano Negaah Kon� bears further chorus-underpinning, nevertheless it still serves this album well.
�Delam Gerefte� confirms the pattern of the wall-flower blooming on this album! There is a musical foundation to this song that could have been used for something special, however it is wasted on a pretentious pop failure!
Sirvan takes pride in �inventing� this particular fusion-formula. He even claims that he came up with this for some other singer but decided to keep it a secret and use it in his own album! But the fact is that what you hear in �Tekraar� is nothing new, Parviz Rahmanpanah was the first who officially fused classic Persian instrumentation with the CLUB musicality and Nami and Kamran Delan delivered a perfected specimen in �Planet Harmony� on Nami�s debut album �Lost Generation�! So this is another one of Sirvan�s claims that doesn�t hold water and grant a patent! Having said that this is a formula that works well for Sirvan, however the song lacks the commercial anatomy that an original mix should posses and instead appears in shape of a remix.
Next comes �Oon Roozaa�, another song which could have turned into something really good if only Sirvan hadn�t experimented within the experiment! This might be a colorful wall-flower, none the less a wall-flower!
The 9th track and the title-track �Saate 9� is no exception, however thanks to your Dutch fellow reader Richard this particular song is getting airplay on a non-Iranian radio station in Holland (read more in my blog)! This is exactly the kind of wall-flower song local and smaller radio-stations in Europe play around lunch-hours. You might hear 20 of them in a row, yet neither stands out nor would have you recognizing it next time you hear it!
Last but not least comes one of the album�s aces. �To Marizi� delivered here together with Xaniar is thematically, lyrically and musically a clever creation! In my opinion the best song on the album and the most successful result of the claimed experimentation! There is also an alternative version available for download online which features the popular Iran-based rapper Yas. I personally am neither a fan of Yas� rap nor repertoire, however this seemingly improbable and incompatible collaboration happens to work perfectly somehow! Most likely this version has been excluded from the album due to the illegal status of Yas.
Sirvan has in recent year, together with his new nemesis Benyamin Bahadori (read more in my blog), been one of the main elements in the whole wave of provocative interviews! Due to being outspoken in the press about his relation and regards concerning fellow artists. He said in an interview, as a critique on Chavoshi�s legal debut, that a change of style just for the sake of a change is not a wise thing to attend to. Ironically this is exactly the kind of error he has committed in his new album! He has tried so hard to get away from the TRANCE, but without really having a clue where he is heading and whether he�s got what it takes to get there. Instead he has experimented with one particular Western POP style, since he insists that it is Western music with Persian lyrics that he produces. People of all kinds will be able to compare my music with today�s international music, Sirvan claims. However when compared it stands clear that he has only taken the parts and pieces that constitute fillers on Western POP albums and not the HIT formulas! There is nothing wrong with the level of experimentation and ambition on this album, the result however bears to be discussed. He says that his heart is no longer in DANCE music and has tried to step out of the box. Ironically as a direct result the only songs which work commercially are the DANCE oriented songs, those that remind of his older songs and not his so called nouveaut�s! In other words he sounds better inside the box, his comfort zone. His debut wasn�t perfect, but it promised a growth much stronger and determined than this follow up. I can somehow understand Sirvan�s ambition with this album, however it also says much about his undetermined character as a recording artist! That he hasn�t really made up his mind about �what� and �for whom� he likes to create. His heart might not be in the DANCE music anymore, understandable, but neither is it in this particular setting! At least it doesn�t sound that way. �Saate 9� is not fully thought-through and a disappointment for those who anticipated a worthy follow up to the debut. My only advice to Sirvan is his own, a change of style just for the sake of a change is not a wise thing to attend to!
Note: thanks to Ahmad and Richard.

With the Wild Card round of the 2011 NFL playoffs now decided, there are some intense and exciting matchups to look forward to in the Divisional round. As the Seattle Seahawks showed with a win over the defending Super Bowl champion New Orleans Saints, anything can happen in the playoffs.
Divisional round predictions aside though, lets take a look at some of the most intriguing potential Super Bowl matchups, as well as some positional matchups we would like to see. Tom Brady vs. Aaron Rodgers, anyone?
