Canned 9/25/13.
Pours a hazy gold with a foamy beige head that settles to a partial film on top of the beer. Foamy swaths of lace form around the glass on the drink down. Smell is of malt, citrus fruit, and citrus zest aromas. Taste is much the same with citrus zest and grapefruit juice flavors on the finish. There is a medium amount of hop bitterness on the palate with each sip. This beer has a good level of carbonation with a crisp and slightly dry mouthfeel. Overall, this is a pretty good beer that packs a surprising amount of aroma and flavor into it's small 2.7% ABV.

Slightly hazy amber color with a thick two finger head with great retention.
Nice aroma with a lemon-orange citrusy.
Refreshing, watery and hoppy taste with flavors of grapefruit (lots of it), herbs, bread, some toasted notes and lemon. Dry aftertaste with a long lasting bitterness.
Watery body with appropriate carbonation.
I had it as a time-out beer between a long degustation. If it had more body, even with a low abv, it would be perfect. I am still to find a fully satisfying low gravity beer.

I love that this beer is in a can now. I poured it into a tulip from the can.
Very nice color with a surprisingly big head that hangs around for awhile
Huge grapefruit and citrus from this as soon as you open the can, just a real big hop presence in this tiny beer
The taste is so flavorful for the ABV, it is like all day IPA but with a slightly better malt backing. Kind of watery, but what can you expect from 2.8 ABV
The mouthfeel was light on this as expected, but it did have a nice bitter taste too and it I swear if you didnt know the ABV you wouldnt be able to tell.
The fact that this comes in cans and is year round(idk how I didnt try it before) makes me excited for spring and summer. AWesome golf beer! I will drink the hell out of this

The head is very impressive with a thick dense bright white foam. The color is more to the clean golden with a very filtered body.
The scent is devine with lemon and grapefruit. The aroma is more to the citrus hop realm with little pine or resin. Subtle malt backbone finishes the scent.
The flavor is very hoppy; herbal, floral, earthy and even a little spicy. This is very low in ABV and the malt substructure is absent which is evidence of such a low gravity.
The feel is slightly bitter, a tad astringent but certainly clean.
This is a really interesting experience as it has a lot of hops, but the malt is almost absent. This is almost an experiment to prove that hops adds flavor but no alcohol while malt is needed for a backbone and alcohol.

At 2.7 ABV and 80 calories, Bikini Beer manages to be very flavorful.
Grapefruit hoppy flavor and smell.
Very light, bubbly mouthfeel.
Highly recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy a real beer without getting drunk or full should turn to Evil Twin Bikini Beer.

The CANQuest (TM) happened upon these during a recent excursion to Max's in BAL, MD and having just come in from another round of shoveling snow, I figured that this might be the time to break it out and CANsider my options.
From the CAN: "Named after an atom bomb test grounds, designed by a French car engineer - the bikini was to many a disturbing and degrading creation but fortunately for others a symbol of emancipation. This attractively light-bodied, seductively well-balanced and very drinkable Bikini Beer is anything but a sissy beer."
Wahoo! A whole 2.7% ABV!?! I CAN't wait to get started! The Crack! revealed yet another brimful craft CAN and so the inverted Glug was underway. This resulted in two fingers of foamy, tawny head with limited retention that produced some nice lacing as it fell. Color was a hazy golden-yellow (SRM = > 9, < 13). Nose had a hoppier presence than I would have expected at 2.7% ABV, It had a grapefruit citrusiness along with a lemony tartness and I actually puckered a little in anticipation. Mouthfeel was medium and the taste was definitely of grapefruit. Without knowing in advance, there is no way that I would have guessed it as being so low in alcohol. It was not the best CANned AIPA that I have had, but by no means was it even close to the worst. The finish was dry and citrusy and I felt like I had been drinking a Squirt soda pop. Wow. Impressive, but an AIPA needs more Ooomph if I am going to return to it.

A thanks to the creator of the canquest, woodychandler, for this beer. Poured from a 12 oz. can. Has a cloudy golden color with a 1/2 inch head. Smell is of citrus, hops. Taste is bursting with grapefruit, hoppy, unbelievable amount of flavor considering the abv. Feels medium bodied in the mouth and overall, if you are looking for a low alcohol beer with lots of flavor, this is it.

12 oz can at fridge temp poured into a snifter. A date stamped on the bottom, but it is unreadable.
Pours out a light orange-deep golden color, a slight hazy with very fine sediment. Soapy white head, about one fingers worth. Average retention and decent lacing left on the glass.
Interesting aroma. Very reminiscent of some raw pellet hops, very pungent. But other than this not a whole lot else to detect.
Not a ton of flavor, but enough to keep you interested at 2.7%. Again with that pungent raw hop pellet flavor, also a bit of hop resin, lemon citrus, and just the slightest sweet grain character. A little bit watery, but I expected it to be more so. Finishes with a nice hop bitterness.
So crisp and refreshing, kind of a higher, more bitey carbonation on this one.
There's some thing I really like about this beer. The fact that its lighter than any BMC yet still packs enough flavor, the amazing session ability. Most of these session IPAs come off very watery and seem to take on a big grainy/ yeasty character, but I don't get much of that here. The only thing that holds me back is the price or else there would be a steady supply of this in my fridge.

A - Golden color with a nice white head.
S - A touch of floral hops.
T - Very minimal hop profile but a very nice sweet body.
M - Very light and crisp on the pallet. Easy to drink without it leaving too much of an aftertaste.
O - What a "fun" beer. Very low in ABV but still packs a delicious flavor profile. Very much a creamy ale without the bitter nonsense you find in BMC.

Poured out of a 12oz can into a tulip glass. The guys at Trappist Provisions always raved about this beer, so I went ahead and bought a can.
Orange-amber, with a foamy, detergent-like head that rises to the top of the glass only to dissipate as quite as it rose. Leaves a little bit of stickiness, and lacing is minimal. Doesn't look too bad.
It's indeed an IPA at the nose, in spite of the stupidly low ABV. Notes of grapefruit, pine, lemon rinds, and peaches are present right away, with an undeniably crackly biscuit flavor from the grains. Slight toffee, honey, and sugar cane. Very minerally at the finish, with notes of chalk and cold stones. There's also a bit of a funky aroma, likened to wet hay, or something similar. It's actually a very intriguing profile for such a low ABV beer, as the the minerality is really unique - it's been a very long while since I had it in a beer. This is really fragile and loses a lot of its gas over the course of consumption, but that's to be expected. It's pretty mild overall, but definitely an accomplishing feat given what they're working with.
The flavor is far milder, with a lot less of the fruit and citrus complexity at the nose, and certainly lacks the mineral properties that had intrigued me. This is like a golden English bitter with some extra bitterness added - biscuity, with mild toffee and cracker crispness, alongside faded lemon rinds, pine, and dried grapefruit. The finish is slightly minerally, with crisp, thin, chalky sensation. One reviewer likened this to mineral water, and I would definitely agree. Indeed, in terms of maintaining a refreshing posture, this really is a success - drinks like a refreshing glass of water, with the bitterness that keeps things interesting.
Unfortunately, this is also the beer's greatest fault - it feels watered down, astringent, and grainy, all without giving back anything in return. I do love how dry it finishes, as well as its breezy qualities, but it's probably something I'd only return to in a fresher condition, or perhaps on tap. This is will be my readily available go-to session beer whenever I'm in the mood. Otherwise, I'm yet to find a low gravity IPA that really blows all of my expectations right out of the water.

A-Pours a lightly hazy yellow color. Head starts off big but dies off to a film of bleach white foam. It does leave long, thick lacing stripes.
S-The 2.7%er has some legitimate hoppiness to its nose. Zesty, musty clementine hop, light lemony hops too with light grass. A sweet little cracker and grain malt is detected too.
T-The flavor is firmly hoppy and bitter. Clean, grassy hop and orangey hops. The malt is light and reminds me of honey and crackers. Dominated by hoppiness. Impressive flavor profile for a supremely low ABV brew.
M-Drinks like seltzer water in terms of body. Very bubbly. Quite bitter. Bitter like and IPA twice its alcohol content.
O/D-Pretty cool but at $12.99 a 6 pack its kind of an expensive novelty that won't even give me much of a buzz. Impressive hoppiness, though. I would rather see this as a 16 oz. single can than a very expensive 6 pack. Worth a try, especially if you can cop a single.

A 2.7% IPA? I can dig that. Nice spicy hop tone to this one. Good citrus tones and some pine too. Bright and sharp. A little bit too bright maybe, but still pretty nice. Feel is good. Definitely easy to drink. As a 2.7% brew, I can forgive a lot. Especially with how well this comes off. I wish there were more brews with this level of abv.

Crisp, clean, but most importantly- light in body; this true session IPA chocks all the powerful taste of America's hop darling into a slim weight of 2.7% abv. Its assertive taste does a great job in masking its lack of strength.
Dark gold and nearly copper, its amber hue is lightly hazy and streams its carbonation from down below. Its fluffy white head churns above the ale and holds firm through half the session. But alas, its malty lightness seems to lack the structure to last for more than that. Surpsingly light on lacing, usually high-hopped beers perform better than this.
Its hop-dominant nose leads with the classic grapefruit and orange peel aromas. Supporting malts give the thinnest hint of bread and honey without any real threat of overtaking the hops. Lightly grassy and somewhat stemmy, the beer's dry crispness allows the vegetable part of hops to play a role in its scent.
That light honey and starchy bread tastes are short lived as they fade into dryness very quickly. But that makes way for the hops to dominate the taste from the middle palate on through finish. That's when the taste of white grapefruit, dried orange peel and a lemony tone offers up a citrusy middle. That delicate acidity turns quickly to the bitterness of pine resin, saw dust and fresh-cut grass. As the bitterness lingers in aftertaste, the beer's mineral taste emerges with light metals and seltzer water.
Absolutely light in body, the beer's high attenuation leaves no appreciable sweetness to be felt on the palate- this allows for an incredible refreshment, drinkability and crispness. However its dry "naked" character exposes a few flaws that malt can usually absorb. These are its mineral water taste in finish and its stemmy hop character that are both largely unavoidable.

The ivory-colored head on this beer starts at a solid two finger's height, dropping at a moderate pace to a patchy island of foam that laves plenty of spotting, some heavy enough to be considered patching. The beer itself is a thick dark yellow, completely opaque though it shines brightly.
The hops bouquet is mostly citrus with a bit of dusty earth, lemon, slight spiciness, and something akin to tropical fruits balancing it out.
Pine and lemon peel are first on the tongue before some grains kick in. A little bit of black pepper is there too. A hint of musty earth pulls out in the finish.
The body is light and there's a firm crispness, but there's an note of tea leaf in the feel and a certain metallic sort of thing that's usually found in English beers. It gets a little limp under the crispness, but not too badly.

12oz can from "Lifesource" in Salem. Did not know this is only 2.7%, I am apprehensive now. $2.59 Certainly pours nice enough, light orange,slighly hazy, large ,impressive frothy white head. Plenty citric hopping in the aroma, some hay in the background. Nice bright lemon zest/orange pits hop taste, little bread..quite nice really Mouthfeel is understandably weak but it has enough carbonation to carry the beer. Very acceptable brew for 2.7..wish I had seen this during camping season!

Straw/gold with 2 fingers of white, fizzy head. Excellent clarity, good retention and moderate carbonation.
Tangerine, papaya, mango, candy sugar and pine.
Incredibly mellow with an excellent hop bitterness. Tangerine, papaya, mango and pine. Very thin candy sugar backbone with notes of spent grains. The piney bitterness and grapefruit zest travel into the finish.

Pours a hazy golden body beneath the light, pillowy white head which dissolves quickly but then leaves a consistent ring of lacing around the glass.
A nice pungent hopmand fresh tropical fruit smellnfeaturingnpine and grass with grapefruit and starfruit.
The flavor is similar with a nice hop bite of tropical fruit and plenty of grassy pine ans there is almost a touch of lavender too if im not mistaken.
Very crisp and refreshing with a lighter body and medium carbonation with a clean finish.
Could have fooled me with the abv as this beer has just as much flavor and character as some of its bigger counterparts.

Pours a slightly hazy golden with light copper tones and a frothy ivory head that dissipates in big bubbles.
Tropical and citrus fruits abound in aroma, with a bit of dank cannabis and resin adding contrast. Notes of mango, tangerine, and grapefruit dominate. There's a bit of catty character present. Fairly complex hop profile!
Flavor is decidedly resiny and bitter, with underpinnings of tropical fruit adding complexity throughout. Definitely hop dominant, the malt character is just a bit toasty in the background.
Body is surprisingly chewy, and carbonation is moderate. There's a slightly astringent harshness at the finish.
The aroma on this one is pretty awesome, but the flavor is too bitter for my liking. The harsh finish is also offputting. Wish the hop flavoring filters the nose more closely.

Draft at Tørst in Brooklyn.
Pours a pale, slightly hazy light golden yellow color with a half finger white head that quickly settles. Minimal spotty lacing left behind.
Slightly floral, earthy hop aroma with a subtle malt backbone. Very bland with not much else going on.
Light bodied with a subtle crisp hop presence countered by pale malt and subtle fruit notes. Slightly crisp and bitter with some resinous pine and light fruit flavor. Pale malt, bread and cracker underneath but this bee is very watered down and boring. Just some one dimensional hop flavor and a faint pale malt backbone. Not very interesting.

We crack the top and pour a brew of shining golden amber into our Great Lakes pints. It holds a surprisingly massive three and a half finger tall head on a rough pour. This is tan in color, and leaves busy, chunky, Jackson Pollock lacing all around the glass. No haze is noted, but dots of sediment are suspended throughout. Carbonation appears to be very light. The aroma gives pale and toffee grain sweetness, warmed oatmeal, white and brown sugars, cinnamon and chive spiciness, grassy and bitterly citric hops, lemon juiciness, light phenolic plastics, wet waxiness, and dried floral sweetness. Our first impression is that the hops are pleasantly forward, blending well with the salty, drying malt base of the beer. The taste opens with grapefruity and sweetly grassy hops, lemony puck and twang, sweaty saltiness, wet cloth, dried straw, white vinegar, pale but quality grain, oaty dryness, and root vegetable metallics. The middle comes to a predominantly malty peak, with standard pale and chalky grain, watered herbal hops, mineral, lemon tea, soft vinegar acidity, and yeasty metallics. The end is awash with lemon rind and juiciness, palm greens, endive, enlivened grassy and grapefruity hops, glassy metallics, earthen mineral, soy sauce, black pepper spice, and sweat. The aftertaste breathes of corn and pale malts, almonds, citric hops, sour lemon flesh, light notes of soured cherries, tortilla saltiness, sourdough yeastiness, wax, and green grassiness. The body is light, and the carbonation is lightly medium. Each sip gives soft slurp and smack, lesser cream and froth, and crisp snap to the finishing pop. The mouth is left wet but almost immediately puckered with chalky, dusty astringency. The abv is super easy, with accordingly supreme drinkability.
Overall, the best thing about this beer is how incredibly light and easy to drink it is. While the sourness of grain and yeast is a bit much at times, the general balance of the thing, for what it is, is great. The hops come way forward, remaining surprisingly sticky against the depth and saltiness of the malts. With warmth this becomes less of an issue, and the beer disappears much more quickly. These ultra-sessionable beers are starting to become more and more competitive with their competitor American IPAs and APAs via comparison of robustness of flavoring and aroma, and it is well welcomed by us because they are starting to be able to deliver all that you would want in a "smaller" package, increasing reproducibility and longevity.

I love it! something in me just loves these foreign low abv ipa types. the mikkeller drinkin the sun was fantastic, and this is even better. same hops profile, almost exactly, as founders all day ipa, equally citrusy and pungent, but less malt body and balance. honey colored with an easily roused inch of white head, floating coagulated yeast bits, and rising bubbles. nose isn't as pronounced as the taste, so the first sip is just a real nice surprise. its bitter and fruity, florida somehow comes to mind. a touch bretty in the finish, almost like a wild ale, its got that hint, especially the aftertaste, yum. at under 3% abv, I can just crank on this, all day long. hop bitterness is more in the front than the finish, and the back end is cleaner than the style usually allows for, very very drinkable. I love the light body and full flavor, and I hope summer beer continues to trend in this direction. my one critique, is the price. as about 6 bucks for an 11.2 ounce bottle, it becomes more of a novelty beer than the session bomb its designed to be. I mean, it would cost me upwards of 75 bucks to get drunk of this in an afternoon, as much as id love to do that, its a ridiculous price point. can it, and give it to me in 30 packs for 15 bucks and ill drink nothing else (I don't say that often)...

11.2 oz beer was poured into a pint glass.
Appearance: This beer poured a one finger head that reduced to a thin layer fast to a thin layer. It is a pale orange with great clarity and bubbles coming up through the glass. Some spotty lacing on the glass as the beer was drank.
Smell: Grassy, piney, and citrus hops. Some light caramel malts in the background. You can't really expect much for 2.7% beer.
Taste: Very hoppy. Resiny, mango, grassy, pineapple, mango, tangerine, and grapefruit. There is some simple and light malts in the rear.
Mouthfeel: Super light bodied, medium carbonation, a little dry, very drinkable and sessionable too.
Overall: Probably one of the best light IPA's I have ever had. This beer would be great after exercising or doing yardwork.

Pours a fizzy bubbly 1 finger head that fades spotty lacing, hazy reddish orange color with lots if sediment.
Nose has lots of fruity hops, tropical fruit with light papaya and guava, little grapefruit and citrus, light musty resin, little floral too and hint spicy, with faintest touch of malt, ruby red grapefruit really comes out.
Taste starts with light watery malt water, no sweetness and no malt to back it up. hops are plenty though, fairly bitter with citrus rind, but if papaya tropical fruit, grapefruit pith, light spicy hops too, and somehow a hint of mint. As there is no malt to balance it gets astringent and a bit too bitter. Finish is bitter astringent like biting into a grapefruit rind, touch of spicy.
Mouth is lighter bodied, watery, nice carb.
Overall the hops are nice but with the ridiculous lack of malts really makes the beer hard to drink somehow, but I guess they were trying for that.

Poured from the bottle into a Dogfish Head Ale glass.
Head makes a nice creamy top of about two fingers, settles very slowly to a good foamy puck all while drinking. Occasional chunks of lacing hit the glass. Body color is a very clear orange peach amber with a real nice middle column of fast rising carbonation. There is a ton of yeast chunks in the bottle while trying to pour this unfortunately. Lots of floaties, not very attractive. Remove the floaties and we have a quite pleasant looking brew.
Nose is hop forward but also kind of subdued, but for such a low abv I would expect it. Hits of a citrus tangerine, Christmas orange, a little juicy too. Hints of some sweet caramel sensations possibly too. Not bad.
Palate is very forward and unexpected. A big hop pine blast in the mouth with an incredibly dry finish. Aftertaste is sweet and lingering, but also very quick and fast. Mid and front palate forward tremendously. Body is a little wet, but even expected for this low abv. Citrus angle is sort of lost burried with a large hop pine blast.
Overall this is still pretty enjoyable, and quite flavorful for such a low session beer. However, it's a little off kilter and it's not impressive to look at it, but tastes surprisingly well.. surprising. I would have this again.

Centrotemporal (Rolandic) spikes
Centrotemporal spikes probably are the most common specific epileptiform abnormalities found in classic Landau-Kleffner syndrome (LKS) and in children with autistic spectrum disorders with and without regression.22 Although Rolandic epilepsy usually is a benign, age-dependent form of epilepsy, extreme cases have been described.47,49,,51,6063 These patients have had prolonged deficits, including:
Deonna et al.48 have suggested that an oromotor deficit may be the initial symptom in Rolandic epilepsy, preceding the appearance of overt seizures. This pattern parallels the appearance of verbal auditory agnosia in classic LKS prior to the onset of seizures. Deonna speculates that the variations in clinical symptoms between classic LKS and its variants are related to the main site, local extension, and bilaterality of the epileptic foci, rather than to a basic difference in pathophysiology. The patients reported with centrotemporal spikes and classic LKS do not appear to have greater expressive deficits, however. Deonna48 hypothesizes that oromotor difficulties interfere either with simple voluntary oromotor functions or with complex movements including speech production, depending on the location and spread of the epileptic focus around the perisylvian region. Thus, nonlinguistic deficits such as intermittent drooling, oromotor apraxia, or dysfluency, as well as linguistic deficits involving phonologic production, all can occur. The most severe deficit produced in this context is a complete anterior operculum syndrome. The reported rapidity of onset, duration, progression, and recovery of the deficit varies widely. Such differences could reflect the degree of epileptic activity. As with LKS, the paroxysmal EEG activity (which usually is bilateral) and the clinical deficit sometimes run in parallel, and rapid improvement with antiepileptic medication occurs in some cases.

A Great Kitchen Tool and A Pleasure to Use (5/5) | Apr 7, 2013 | Jim Warner | Sacramento CA US | |
The LamsonSharp offset bread knife is a bit pricey but worth it! The serrade is the best I have ever used for a bread knife. The length between serrade peaks and the depth of each grove make for smooth motion and a fine "bread dust" that does not explosively leave the cut line, unlike knives with a larger serrade. The offset handle gives greater energy transfer to the blade (force-via-position) and keeps my hand off the cutting board. Asthetically the knife is very attractive: the subtle curve of the forged blade and tang and the rosewood grips accenting the handle. Great for cutting fruits and vegis too. |

Fold-Over Quesadillas

An idea struck me when it was my son's lunch box day on Fridays. Jon loves Onigiri, so I decided to make him an Angry Birds Lunch Box! Angry Birds Bento Box for a 16-yr-old boy? Never mind, his mum is a big kid too! Guess what? It was my hubby who was more impressed & "snatched" the lunch box from Jon! Yes, Ken brought these Angry Birds to his office instead!!

You may not have heard the word "hygiene" since the school nurse lectured your class about brushing your teeth and cleaning behind your ears, but hygiene is simply a system of principles and practices for preserving health and preventing disease. Good sleep hygiene consists of common-sense basics, such as:
Regular hours. A consistent wake-up time is especially important in synchronizing your internal biological clock.
Frequent exercise. However, it's best not to work out in the evening, when you should be winding down.
Cut down on caffeine, such as coffee, colas and chocolate. Caffeine can linger in the body for up to eight hours, so try to avoid it after lunch.
A good bed. A bed that's too small, too soft, too hard or just plain too old can keep you from getting the deep, restful sleep you need.
Don't smoke. Nicotine is an even stronger stimulant than caffeine and can cause problems falling and staying asleep.
Drinking. Alcohol may make you drowsy, but it undermines the quality and quantity of your sleep and disrupts normal sleep stages.
A sleep ritual. A relaxing routine, such as relaxing music, stretches, or light reading can help smooth the transition from day to night. Don't take a hot bath or shower immediately before going to bed, because increasing your body temperature can disrupt your internal rhythm and keep you awake.
A comfortable sleep environment. Keep your bedroom as quiet and dark as possible, with a cool temperature. Try to keep other distractions to a minimum.
Choose "sleepy" snacks such as carbohydrates and avoid energizing proteins.

Auto Serve 2012 to kick start Nov 12 in Chennai
The fifth edition of Auto Serve 2012, a three-day exhibition on automotive after market business held by Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), will kick start Nov 16 here, said an organiser Tuesday.
Speaking to reporters, R. Dinesh, chairman, Auto Serve 2012 and joint managing director, TVS Sundram Iyendar and Son Ltd, said: "CII through Auto Serve forum is providing a ready to use marketing and educational platform for the growing automotive after-market business in India."
According to him, Auto Serve 2012 was being held at a crucial time when the automotive industry was currently witnessing a slowdown.
"With this background, Auto Serve 2012 would demonstrate to industry and other stakeholders on enhancing the profitability in the automotive after-market business by showcasing state-of-the-art technologies and solutions," he said.
According to him, the Indian automotive after-market is expected to grow to around USD 9.4 billion by 2015 from its present estimated size of USD 3.7 billion.
With the population of automobiles in India exceeding 110 million and growing at the rate of 10-12 percent per annum, the automotive after-market business in India is poised for an immense growth, Dinesh added.
He said over 100 exhibitors will be showcasing their products and services at the Auto Serve 2012 which is expected to attract around 20,000 trade and business visitors.

Pilots will soon learn that with the awesome power of their mecha, comes the awesome responsibility to fight the evil gods of the Living City, put down the Separatist Guard's shameful rebellions, topple unjust kings and his lackies, the Arbor Defense Force, find love with the Cheerleader Captain, and get to class before the Vice Principal finds out. Such is the life of a mecha pilot.

Absentee solons urged to show up for RH bill
By Christian V. EsguerraPhilippine Daily Inquirer
MANILA, Philippines—Frustrated over frequent absenteeism on the floor, Albay Rep. Edcel Lagman has written his fellow congressmen urging them to make a "sacrifice" and show up during plenary deliberations on his pet proposal, the reproductive health (RH) bill.
"Let us collectively seize the moment and deliver without further delay the bill which is pregnant with fulfillment for maternal and infant health, reproductive self-determination as a human right, and sustainable human development," he wrote in a letter titled "Appeal to All Authors and Advocates of the RH Bill."
"Let us offer our constituents a small measure of sacrifice by responding to this urgent quorum call."
Lagman, chief proponent of House Bill No. 4244, said his letter was sent to more than 100 coauthors and "another group of several dozens of confirmed advocates and supporters who are committed to vote for the measure."
The bill got stuck in the stage allotted for amendments and could not barrel through primarily because of lack of quorum.
Majority Leader Neptali Gonzales II noted that most of the lawmakers who skipped the session supported the measure.
Lagman disagreed. He said, "I am happy to note that despite the absence of a quorum during the previous session days, majority of those who responded to the roll call are RH authors and advocates."

This cute dress is a linen blend I bought far too many years ago! Daughter No2 pulled it out of my overflowing fabirc boxes last summer and pinned a note to it, asking for it to be made in Burdastyle no108 05/2011. It has taken a year to get round to it, but at long last, here it is!
Note to self – don't use a stripe fabric when such acute angles are present in the shapes of the pattern pieces, matching will never happen!! It was a petite pattern, so I toiled it to check fitting, especially as Daughter No2 is anything but petite! The bodice was fine, but the skirt waay too short.
I'm really happy with it, it has a cute '60s vibe to it, and I know she'll wear it as much as she can in the remaining gasps of summer. I might even try it in a wool crepe to wear with a long-sleeve tee for the winter…
On another note, Daughter no2 now has 27 Dresses….

When I was 16 years old I started building muscle out in the basement of my parent's old farmhouse. There were 3 muscle building factors that I knew to use:
1) Keep my reps between 6-15. It's a wide range, but you want variety.
2) Use a variety of different muscle groups.
3) Train hard – but not every day – and recover hard.
I got great results…but my results would have been better if I had read this free muscle building book here.
Grab that free book (from one of my former training mentors in Toronto – Ben Pakulski – one of the top 10 bodybuilders in the world) and you'll also get a FREE copy of my TT Build Muscle at Home dumbbell workout.
Get these 2 free muscle books here <= FINAL REMINDER
Then get building muscle at home or at the gym,
Craig Ballantyne, CTT
Certified Turbulence Trainer
PS – Back in the day I started with an old…
…York Universal machine, but eventually switched to dumbbells, using a program similar to the Home DB workout I'm giving you free when you get Ben & Vince's muscle building advice here.
Let me know what you think.
PPS – Train hard but safe but hard.

Re: College Football Realignment
I'm just starting to wonder where this is all going to end up. Teams shifting conference to conference to conference. I get that its all about the green, but I'm afraid they are just going to break college football.
It's kinda like what I call the birdcage re-org in the corporate world. You have a cage filled with birds on various perches. You ka-wham the side of the cage and there is a great amount of squawking and fluttering as the birds fly and scurry around to find a new perch. But at the end of the day, its still the same cage and the same birds, just different perches. Not much changed, but a great amount of effort was expended.
Pay attention to the open sky

New Satellite Internet Service Offered to Soldiers in Afghanistan
TS2 Satellite Technologies company is introducing new broadband services on Eutelsat EB4 & W6 satellites to the Afghan market.
WARSAW, POLAND, February 06, 2010
-- TS2 Satellite Technologies company is introducing new broadband services on Eutelsat EB4 & W6 satellites to the Afghan market.
These types of telecommunication products are mainly used by the companies that execute contracts in Asia, as well as by the soldiers that are stationed in Afghanistan. Purchased bands gives TS2 unlimited possibilities of configuration and setting any telecommunication connections from the Near East region and South-Western Asia.
The broadband service offer two-way high-speed Internet access with no phone lines, no cable, no dial-up modem. It's always online, available virtually anywhere, and affordable. The offered satellite system is ideally suited for broadband requirements such as Internet and VPN access to enterprise networks, as well as real-time VoIP and video conferencing.
The Internet connection can be shared with other users via wireless or wired network. Most soldiers deploy with a laptop in hand and a hookup to the Internet in their barracks. This is especially important for the many who are married, and have young children. The Internet access has resulted in major morale improvements. Troops no longer feel cut off from home.
Not all the Internet connectivity is just for staying in touch with the folks back home. The troops in Afghanistan use the Internet a lot for professional tasks, and not all of them are official business. Some troops blog, and many other stay in touch with military friends and associates in other parts of the world. The Internet has made possible many online communities composed of military professionals.
Without the new satellite system, large numbers of Soldiers will be without regular communications for much or most of their time in Afghanistan. The infrastructure is Spartan to non-existent.
More information on
Eutelsat's W6 (formerly W3) satellite is located at 21.5 degrees East featuring 28 simultaneously active transponders. This satellite is ideal for applications such as VSAT networks, broadband Internet and data broadcasting. It is most suitable for companies that require communications between Europe, North Africa, the Sahara, the Middle East and the Gulf region.
The EUROBIRD 4, also called as EB4, is Eutelsat's one of the satellites that provides coverage from 4 degrees East of Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and central Asia in Ku-band frequencies.
TS2 Satellite Technologies specializes in providing global satellite access services. Our core business is broadband access to the Internet in areas with poor telecommunications infrastructure and mobile satellite phones communication. The main medium of used transmission is a two-way satellite transfer system, which provides good access to the satellite network in even the least accessible areas. It not only provides a broadband connection but also a wide range of additional data and voice services.

The Windows Azure Pack is a collection of Windows Azure technologies available to Microsoft customers at no additional cost. Once installed in your datacenter, the Windows Azure Pack integrates with System Center and Windows Server to help provide a self-service portal for managing services such as websites, Virtual Machines, and Service Bus; a portal for administrators to manage resource clouds; scalable web hosting; and more.
If you want to learn more about Windows Azure Pack (WAP) where do you need to start? The best place to start is the Microsoft Technet wiki page for WAP
And to make it even easier I would suggest you to watch the 1:14 minutes video Building Cloud Services with Windows Server 2012 R2, Microsoft System Center 2012 R2 and the Windows Azure Pack recorded during TechEd Europe 2013.
It has some great demos about Azure Consistent Experiences, Virtual Machines, VM Clouds Administration,Automation (SMA), Usage Metering and Service Reporting.
After watching this video you should be able to understand more about WAP and related concepts like Service Management Automation.
The Windows Azure Pack is free if you have licenses for System Center and Windows Server.
Today I listened to the 252st Episode of the PowerScripting Podcast with Chris Ashley and Dmitry Petrashev from Dell on Mobile IT and PowerGui and wanted to test their Mobile IT Solution with System Center Operations Manager.
According to their website Mobile IT makes it easy to provide secure, easy-to-use, mobile access to everyday applications that enhance the productivity of your mobile workforce.
With the product's unique mobile connector, you can quickly enable your users to access applications from a broad range of mobile devices. Mobile IT delivers a native device experience without the need for either virtualization or custom development – all without sacrificing security or usability. With Mobile IT, devices communicate through a secure HTTPS connection, and administrators can easily approve or disapprove devices attempting access as well as lock out devices reported lost or stolen.
In this blog post I will walk you through the installation of the Mobile IT Components which was pretty easy if you have a simple scenario using Dell's Gateway to connect to your Mobile IT Server and Agent.
High-Level Installation steps:
Architecture of Mobile IT Solution:
Test Mobile IT Server\Agent Architecture:
Simple Scenario
Taken from Admin Guide
Installation of Mobile IT Server\Agent
1. Unzip Quest_Mobile-IT-x64-with-Prerequisites_13.zip (439 MB)
2. Run QuestMobileIT_x64_1.3.2139.0.exe on Mobile IT Server\Agent (System Center Operations Manager Management Server)
Selected Full install
On the Management Server is already a SQL Server 2008 R2 Instance installed.
3. Install Mobile Pack by unzipping Quest_Microsoft-Systems-Center-Operations-Manager-SCOM_118880.zip file
4. Import SCOM Mobile Pack using the Mobile IT Console
Click on Add Instance
5. Connect Mobile Devices (Windows Phone) to Mobile IT Server
6. Configure the Mobile IT Connector
And now waiting for the Operations Manager Alerts being forwarded to my Windows Phone. And yes Alerts are showing up on my Windows Phone 8
Installation process of the Mobile IT solution was pretty simple and straightforward, but I was missing information about the configuration of the Mobile IT Connector within Operations Manager.
I hope find some time to start creating my own Mobile Packs using PowerShell. The Mobile IT development team has released the SDK that can be used by other product development teams to create their own Mobile IT server connectors.
Yesterday we released a new free ebook called Introducing Microsoft System Center 2012 R2.
Microsoft System Center is one of the three pillars of Microsoft's Cloud OS vision that will transform the traditional datacenter environment, help businesses unlock insights in data stored anywhere, enable the development of a wide range of modern business applications, and empower IT to support users who work anywhere while being able to manage any device in a secure and consistent way. The other two pillars of the Cloud OS are, of course, Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows Azure, and Microsoft Press has recently released free Introducing books on these platforms as well. Whether you are new to System Center or are already using it in your business, this book has something that should interest you. The capabilities of each component of System Center 2012 R2 are first described and then demonstrated chapter by chapter. Real-world and under-the-hood insights are also provided by insiders at Microsoft who live and breathe System Center, and those of you who are experienced with the platform will benefit from the wisdom and experience of these experts. We also included a list of additional resources at the end of each chapter where you can learn more about each System Center component.
Go download the free ebook here
Was it useful? Did it teach you what you wanted to learn? Was there room for improvement? Let us know at http://aka.ms/tellpress Your feedback goes directly to the staff at Microsoft Press, and we read every one of your responses. Thanks in advance!
One of the many blogposts on my todo list is about SMA (Service Management Automation) but I'm just too busy to blog right now. So sorry for the lack of blogposts lately. Did I mention we are looking for Premier Field Engineers in the Netherlands?
Service Management Automation is a feature of the management portal for administrators in Windows Azure Pack for Windows Server. You can use it to automate administrative tasks in the management portal. You automate your tasks by using runbooks, which run Windows PowerShell commands. You can also use a runbook to run another runbook within its workflow. When the secondary runbook is finished, runbook implementation returns to the calling runbook.
Jim Britt a Senior Program Manager for the Windows Server System Center CAT Team at Microsoft has posted a blogpost the PowerShell Magazine blog explaining what SMA is and why it is important in the world of PowerShell.
Check it out!
Kevin Green published a great set of new System Center 2012 R2 Visio Stencils for all your System Center designs. Go grab them from Kevin's Skydrive!
Thank you Kevin for sharing those Visio Stencils!
This week I'm again delivering a PowerShell workshop and during the use of the Sort-Object Cmdlet in the Pipeline we had a interesting discussion which I want to share with you.
You all probably know you can use the Sort-Object Cmdlet in the Pipeline to sort your objects. Let's start with a simple Ascending sort for the objects from the Get-Service cmdlet on the Service Name property.
1 Get-Service | Sort-Object -Property Name | Format-Table Name, Status -AutoSize
This gives us a nicely formatted overview from all Services sorted Ascending on Name:
We can also sort on Name Descending with the –Descending parameter Switch for the Sort-Object Cmdlet.
1 Get-Service | Sort-Object -Property Name -Descending | Format-Table Name, Status -AutoSize
Simple right?
But what if we want to do the following? We want to sort on Status Ascending. So we want to see first the Running Services before the Stopped Services. The "R" is before the "S" in the Alphabet. Right?
1 Get-Service | Sort-Object -Property Status | Format-Table Name, Status -AutoSize
Strange? We expect to see the Running Services before the Stopped Services. Right? No not completely because when you sort in ascending order by status value, "Stopped" services appear before "Running" services. The Status property of a service is an enumerated value in which the names of the statuses represent integer values. The sort is based on the integer value, not the name. "Running" appears before "Stopped" because "Stopped" has a value of "1", and "Running" has a value of "4"
And what if we want to sort on two properties but both have a different sorting order?
Let's sort our Services with the names in ascending order and status in descending order. Now we need to use hashtables.
1 get-service | sort-object -property @{Expression="Status";Descending=$true}, @{Expression="Name";Descending=$false} | 2 format-table name, status –autosize
Again keep in mind that sorting on Status Descending is showing the Running (value=4) before the Stopped (value=1) services.
One of my great PFE colleagues out based in Australia, Wei Lim started to blog and I can highly recommend to add his blog to your RSS Reader.
Wei Out There with System Center is the name of his blog and this is already the list of posts he published the last month.
Wei keep up the great work!
Hi people, it's there. The new release of System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager RTM. Go to MSDN and start your downloads just after you installed Windows 8.1
Microsoft Monitoring Agent is a new agent that replaces the Operations Manager Agent and combines .NET Application Performance Monitoring (APM) in System Center with the full functionality of Visual Studio IntelliTrace Collector for gathering full application profiling traces. Microsoft Monitoring Agent can collect traces on demand or can be left running, which monitors applications and collects traces. You can limit the disc space that the agent uses to store collected data. When the amount of data reaches the limit, the agent begins to over-write the oldest data, storing the latest in its place.
Microsoft Monitoring Agent can be used together with Operations Manager or can be used as a standalone tool for monitoring web applications written with Microsoft .NET Framework. In both cases, the operator can direct the agent to save application traces in an IntelliTrace log format that can be opened in Visual Studio Ultimate. The log contains detailed information about application failures and performance issues.
You can use Windows PowerShell commands to start and stop monitoring and collect IntelliTrace logs from web applications that are running on Internet Information Services (IIS). To open IntelliTrace logs generated from APM exceptions and APM performance events, you can use Visual Studio. For information about supported versions of IIS and Visual Studio, see Microsoft Monitoring Agent Compatibility.

This week I'm teaching a PowerShell Workshop and I get often asked why it is necessary to use a sub-expression, a $ sign followed by a set of parenthesis ().
Compare the following difference:
1 $service = Get-Service -Name Spooler 2 #Without the use of Sub-Expressions 3 "The Spooler Service is currently $service.status" 4 5 #Without the use of Sub-Expressions but extra step 6 $status = $service.status 7 "The Spooler Service is currently $status" 8 9 #With the use of Sub-Expressions 10 "The Spooler Service is currently $($service.status)"
By using sub-expressions you are able to extract the value of a property for displaying. This saves the extra step of creating an additional variable to contain the value of the property before displaying it.
Hope this helps.
Because I'm pretty busy lately I've not been able to blog about the new OpsMgr 2012 R2 Cmdlets, but check Stefan Roth's blogpost about this subject.
Keep up the great work Stefan!
This time not a blog post about System Center but a blog post on how to use Windows Key Combinations in Remote Desktop Sessions.
I really love to use Windows Key Combination on my Windows 8 and Windows 2012 machines and one of my most favorite combinations is the Win+X combination. Check here for a great overview of the Windows Key Combinations.
But last week I connected to one of my remote machines using a Remote Desktop Connection and my Windows Key combinations did not work in the RDP session. And instead of searching for more information I thought about using PowerShell and some PInvoke to use Windows Key combinations and I got something working Check the video and the example code I used to achieve this.
But one Windows Key combination was not working and that was my favorite Win-X combination.
And after asking around internally and via social media I got some great tips on how to use Windows Key combinations in RDP Sessions using different RDP Clients.
If you are using Remote Desktop Connection Manager you can configure your setting for the Local Resources Tab for the Server Properties.
If you are using the mother-of-all RDP Clients Royal TS you can even do more! Royal TS is a simple, yet powerful tool for administrators, developers, system engineers and many other IT focused information workers that supports them in working effortless with their remote systems or management consoles.
What I love about Royal TS that you have some Remote Action buttons to open the App Bar, Charms, Snap, App Switch and Start menu. How cool is that?
Enjoy using your Windows Key combination both locally and remotely!
If you are interested in the new PowerShell v4 feature Desired State Configuration you can download a Cheat Sheet at the Microsoft Download Center.

This article lists all latest cumulative updates that were released for Microsoft System Center Operations Manager. I created this overview to easily find the latest Update Rollups for all the different versions of Operations Manager. Hope you also like this overview.
Cumulative Updates Overview Windows Agents

Agent Build Version
List of all OpsMgr R2 Cumulative Updates:
Update Rollup 7 for System Center 2012 This update was released on October 22, 2013, but did not contain any updates for System Center 2012 Operations Manager. Because all System Center 2012 components are on the same release cycle, the update rollup (UR) number increases with each release regardless of whether the component has an update. The management pack for UNIX and Linux Operating Systems was upgraded to version 7.4.4337.0 and can be obtained here
Cumulative Updates Crossplatform Agents
I tried to be as accurate as possible, but if I made a mistake please let me know using the comment section so I can fix the error.
* Since all System Center 2012 products are on the same release cycle the UR number increases with each release whether each product has a release or not.
Latest available Update Rollup for System Center 2012 Products: 6 This Update Rollup 6 was only for System Center Virtual Machine Manager 2012. Operations Manager did not have any patches for UR6 for server/console/agent/gateway. The only OpsMgr UR6 content are MPs and agents (MPBs) for UNIX/Linux.
** The updated agents/MPs for SP1 also work for 2012 (with the exception of Microsoft.Unix.Library)
Disclamer: this posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
As you all probably have noticed we announced the Preview version of System Center 2012 R2 during at TechEd Europe 2013. You can download the Evaluation VHD from here.
Downloading the VHDs saves you quite some time evaluating these new OpsMgr bits. Some time ago I wrote a blogpost on how to install OpsMgr 2012 (SP1) the fast way using VHDs.
Again you also need to install a Domain Controller, and this time we are going to use Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Preview VHD (Server Core) to host the Domain Controller.
But before we get started let's give a short overview of the updated features.
Fabric Monitoring
By integrating System Center 2012 R2 Virtual Machine Manager and System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager, System Center cloud hybrid monitoring of physical and virtual layers can be achieved. A new System Center 2012 Management Pack for System Center 2012 R2 Virtual Machine Manager Dashboard Preview is needed for this feature.
This will give you a Fabric Health Dashboard with a detailed overview of the health of your private clouds and the fabric that services those clouds.
Microsoft Monitoring Agent
This is a new version of the Operations Manager Agent that includes full functionality of Visual Studio IntelliTrace Collector for gathering full application profiling traces.
Integrating Operations Manager with Development Processes (DevOps)
Here are two important changes to the DevOps functionality in System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager:
Support for IPv6
The Operations console can take IPv6 addresses as input for Network Discovery and display IPv6 addresses in the network-related views.
Java Application Performance Monitoring
The System Center 2012 Management Pack for Java Application Performance Monitoring lets you monitor Java application performance and exception events by using Operations Manager Application Advisor.
And finally System Center Advisor
System Center Advisor is an online service that analyzes installations of Microsoft server software. With the latest preview version of Advisor and Update Rollup 2 of System Center 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP1), you can now view Advisor alerts in the Operations Manager Operations console.
For the complete detailed overview of what is new check the What's New in System Center 2012 R2 Operations Manager page on TechNet.
Start downloading those evaluation vhds and I'll explain in my next blogpost how to install System Center 2012 R2 Preview Operations Manager the fast way.
Have fun downloading.
This week I needed to install a OM2012 Gateway Server in my demo environment (Windows Server 2012 standard) and the installation was failing with the following error.
After adding the .NET Framework 3.5 using PowerShell the installation was successful.
Today I was helping a customer with some OpsMgr MP authoring and you sometimes need to find a Referenced Management Pack before you can edit a MP in the Authoring Console.
It's sometimes difficult to find the correct Version of a MP if you have stored different versions on your system. The fastest way to find the correct version for a Referenced Management Pack is using PowerShell.
We used the following script to search the D:\Temp\MPs folder and subfolders to search for the correct Reference MP.
Get-ChildItem -Path "D:\Temp\MPs" -filter "Microsoft.SystemCenter.NTService.Library.mp" -Recurse | select-Object -ExpandProperty VersionInfo | Where-Object {$_.FileVersion -eq "6.0.5000.0"} | Format-Table FileName, FileVersion -AutoSize
Today I got a question from my fellow Premier Field Engineer Anders Bengtsson if I could help him with an OpsMgr PowerShell script he was creating for an Orchestrator Runbook he started to create. And while waiting for a PowerShell workshop I was about to deliver I booted my OM2012 servers and had a look at his PowerShell script.
He wanted to be able to delete an OpsMgr Rule using PowerShell. As you may know there is no Remove-SCOMRule Cmdlet or function available in the PowerShell OperationsManager Module. Let's check to be sure.
No, we can disable, enable and get a SCOMRule but there is no Remove-SCOMRule Cmdlet.
So, if there is none, let's create one!
First let's have a look at the parameters for the Get-SCOMRule, we may could use the same parameters in our Remove-SCOMRule Function.
Get-Help Get-SCOMRule -Detailed
Looking at the list of parameters the Get-SCOMRule is using we start simple using the DisplayName and Name parameters for our new Remove-SCOMRule function.
Here is a function you can use and tweak to Remove SCOM Rules in your OM2012 environment.
<# .Synopsis Removes a list of monitoring rules. .DESCRIPTION The Remove-SCOMRule removes a list of monitoring rules. .EXAMPLE Remove-SCOMRule -DisplayName "test rule" .EXAMPLE Get-SCOMRule -Name "MomUIGeneratedRule2c30f12ddfb6493fbd0c92e41db94495" | Remove-SCOMRule -Verbose #> function Remove-SCOMRule { [CmdletBinding(SupportsShouldProcess=$true)] Param ( # Specifies the name of the object [Parameter(Mandatory=$true, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$true, Position=0)] [string[]]$Name, # Specifies the displayname of the object [Parameter(Mandatory=$false, ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$false, Position=1)] [string]$dislayname ) Begin { Write-Verbose "Starting Function Remove-SCOMRule" } Process { #Create Hashtable for Get-SCOMRule Cmdlet parameters if ($name) { $parms = @{'name'=$name} } else { $parms = @{'displayname'=$displayname} } Write-Debug "`$parms: $parms" $Rule = Get-SCOMRule @parms Write-Verbose "Removing Rule: $($Rule.DisplayName)" $MP = Get-SCOMManagementPack -Name ($Rule.ManagementPackName) $MPObject = $MP.FindManagementPackElementByName($Rule.Name); $MPObject.Status = [Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Configuration.ManagementPackElementStatus]::PendingDelete $MP.AcceptChanges() } End { Write-Verbose "Finished Function Remove-SCOMRule" } }
How to use this function?
Now we can use the Get-SCOMRule Cmdlet to retrieve the Rule and pipe it to the Remove-SCOMRule Function. You can even remove multiple Rule in one go if you retrieve multiple rules using the Get-SCOMRule Cmdlet.
Sitting at the McCarran International Airport waiting for my flight to Amsterdam (the Netherlands) I had some time to kill so I wrote a simpel PowerShell script which helps to easily download the MMS 2013 sessions from the Channel 9 RSS feed.
Using the Out-GridView Cmdlet you can easily select the sessions you are interested in. Click on Ok when finished selecting the sessions you are interested in downloading.
After creating my initial version I got some feedback that sometimes the script did not work and with the help of Jamie Moyer (also a Senior PFE like me) we made the script more robust and added extra features like a HTML Report overview.
You can even use the –verbose switch and other parameters to tweak the download folder. We hope you like the improvements.
