The return of New Year seasonal beers is always a joy to behold. For the over-the-hop crowd there is Bell's Hopslam What could now be considered a classic example of what is known as American IPA. I had this years ago, and again I found to be tasty but not worthy of all the hype.
Something I found more interesting is our local Madtree Brewing Company's PSYCHOPATHYPerhaps it is because this beer is local and wonderfully fresh.
Speaking of local, Mt. Carmel Brewing Company's SPRINGTIME ALEa beautiful recipe using a Scottish-style that is approachable and delicious. Again, this may be a matter of logistic freshness.
It was ironic to see, this year, Genesee Bock in a bottleAfter all those years of being craft-beer-in-a can I now see the Heritage edition in bottles and cans!
Since bock is on my lips, and Spring in my soul, it is a delicious sight indeed to see the return of Hudepohl Festival Bock and its big brother Christian Moerlein Emancipator Dopplebock.
These two along with Rivertown Brewing's Bock are wonderful reminders of the rich Germanic brewing roots found in Southwest Ohio.
The late arrival of the grand daddy of American wassail was a welcome sight indeed. Mind you dear reader, I have had Anchor's "Our Special Ale" since the 17th edition. This is the 39th year. So I have tasted the changes through those 20 plus years. This year's version is, at least for myself, a subtle but marvellous departure from recent editions. Here it seems, what might be called the spruce element has been toned back a bit, leaving the malts to move forward. Delicious from start to finish.
Between the holiday beers, the seasonal and special editions, there is something here for every kind of palate. Perhaps it is just my age, but experience has taught me that when it come to the flavor of beer, it is best to accept the unexpected. Take for example Shiner Holiday Cheer the first time I tasted it was, an unexpected shock (peaches and pecans, who would have thought of it?). But now it has become a Christmas tradition: the Holiday wheat bock brewed with peaches.
Southern Tier Brewing Company has several seasonal selections. Krampus, their imperial helles lager is deceptively smooth. This is a Christmas devil full of bottom fermented goodness. While their 2XMAS "brewed in the tradition of Swedish Glogg" is, what could be described as big time wassail, designed for celebrations. Their Old Man Winter Ale the use of any spices.
For beers with malty depth there are the Imperial Stouts to consider. Brooklyn Black Chocolate Stout immediately comes to mind, with its incredibly rich yet smooth presentation. Sierra Nevada Narwhal proves that even the hop-centric brewers understand the malty depth of the imperial stout style.
Porter is always good this time of year. For those who want a sweeter example of the style, there is Leinenkugel's Vanilla Porter, brewed on a bed of vanilla beans. For Bavarian purity law goodness there is Hudepohl Classic Porter. Need more complexity? Try Flying Dog's Imperial Gonzo Porter. As Doctor Thompson might say: "Ok, let's party."
Bell's Christmas Ale is a rock solid take on Scottish wee heavy, beautifully balanced.
Goose Island Ten Hills Pale Ale is a tribute to the hops grown at Elk Mountain Farms. A citrus hop study, with a gentle finish.
I was also able to obtain, from their FS pub series, Full Sail Pale a wonderful tribute to English style ale, available for 90 days only.
Mendocino Brewery's Oatmeal Stout could serve you well during these winter months. But hey I am partial to oatmeal, I eat a bowl everyday.
Madtree Brewing Company's Gnarly Brown Ale is a welcome reminder of how to the local beer making culture has evolved. To put it bluntly: what an outstanding ale this is, packaged in a can. A special thanks to therapist Toni, who first alerted me about their brewing operations.
Thank you is my prayer. Enjoy, the holidays are upon us, yes!
Moving Towards Dia de los Muertos
This is a replacement piece for one that got technically mangled. The winter seasonal beers are starting to arrive, including some new tasty offerings. Newcastle Cabbie Black Ale is a moderate strength dark ale with plenty of interesting flavour notes. Another is Goose Island Sixth Day Ale, an expertly made strong brown ale that seems to take its inspiration from old English winter ale, without all the ageing nonsense associated with their Christmas Ale. Drink this one bold and fresh.
Looking for something new and golden? Try Christian Moerlein Zeppelin, a hop-forward take on a Bavarian style pale ale that uses Pilsner and Munich malts combined with Noble hops.
As for the return of beloved classics, I will not bore you dear reader with notes, just recommendations:
These are ones I found so far, as we move towards the day of the dead, the holy beer season is quickly approaching. Enjoy.
From Pumpkin To Marzen, And All Points Between
I love writing about beer but also love reading what others have discovered along the way. Pumpkin beer is quite a discovery for many, a new world style to be sure, but other than that, there are no recipe parameters. Pumpkin beer is each brewery's interpretation, and all are quite different. So the idea of "the best" is beside the point. The modern revival of this colonial style of ale, begins with Buffalo Bill's Original Pumpkin Ale, a rather tame recipe now, but was considered to be audaciously bold, in those micro-brewery years.
Take for example, Southern Tier's PUMKING, a massive imperial take that tastes like caramel corn candy in an odd way. A strong (8.6%) ale, its intense flavour disguises this strength.
Samuel Adams Harvest Pumpkin Ale is a tasty brew that has grown in popularity over the years. First appearing in brewmaaster collections, it is now released in its own six pack. A very well made pumpkin ale that maintains balance, while keeping the pumpkin flavour in the forefront,
Dogfishhead's Punkin Ale takes a brown ale approach, where the pumpkin is in the background of a very smooth ale. Delicious from start to finish.
Snuttynose Brewery's Pumpkin Ale exhibits the brewmaster's skill in all its glory, producing a recipe that is multi-layered with flavour notes and pleasant carbonation.
Brooklyn Brewery's Post Road was the first pumpkin ale for me. Strange now, but years ago, people thought it was strange to drink beer made with pumpkins. That first year it was shipped to the midwest, it was closed-out at 8 dollars a case!
But when it comes to pumpkin ales, the one I would choose is Saranac Pumpkin Ale. Now in their 125th year, F. X. Matt Brewing Company uses their brewing expertise to produce what is for myself, the most drinkable pumpkin ale of all.
Here in the miidwest, Oktoberfest got off to an early start, due to some unusually cool weather in August. Marzen is one of my favorite styles of beer and unlike pumpkin ale, there are recipe parameters (although the ingredients can be super-sized, as is the case with Avery Brewing's The Kaiser, another imperial version). But the difference between American Oktoberfest and original Oktoberfest, is I think mainly the house yeast used. There is a floral note in Hacker-Pschorr Original Oktoberfest that is unmistakably German. Here in Cincinnati, Samuel Adams Octoberfest has a very delicious presence in local festivities, but for me, the official beer for Cincinnati Oktoberfest should be Hudepohl Oktoberfest Bier. A personal favorite, now being brewed in Cincinnati.
The arrival of a new fall seasonal from the hop-centric folks at Sierra Nevada Brewing Company is worth checking out. Flipside Red IPA proves that the hop road of discovery is never ending. Enjoy.
The Good and The Great
I was recently asked what is the state of the beer nation these days and I said it is good. In fact, there is a type of good beer for nearly every taste. Never mind that someone else's passion for a particular style is not yours, there are so many others to choose from.
Putting aside all the usual debates about whether a beer is craft or not, whether it uses adjunct grains, or fermentables like honey and cane sugar, the real question that needs to be answered everytime: does the beer taste good for you?
This summer I've been sampling some surprises. Take for exampleRed Hook Wisecracker Witt, a refreshing wheat ale that is well suited to be consumed straight from the bottle.
Or if you want something in a more exotic modeWAILUA from Kona Brewing continues the fruit ale category that expands greatly during the summer.
The return of a Newport, Kentucky legendis of interest here in the Ohio valley, but actually, this craft take on the Bohemian Special Lager does not taste anything like the watery version made by Pittsburg Brewing before its demise. To be sure, this Wiedemann's a rock solid lager, contract brewed by the experts at The Point Brewery, in Wisconsin.
It happened a few days after the Super Bowl. There were signs and omens that Sunday, when the overwhelming rush of corporate greed flooded the televisions across the land with hype that went beyond hype in its attempt to create a mythology that could justify all the gastronomic over indulgence that went on all day, awaiting the start of the Big Event that occurred sometime around 6:30 pm, EST.
I had a job to do. To watch the national roll out of Budweiser Black Crown in a coveted ad time spot during the game. Some 6% swill thought up by the enterprising folks at A-B Inbev, aimed at that very important 21 to 34 year old demographic. But I was not drinking any kind of beer. In fact, I had not touched beer for days. I had what I thought was a touch of the flu, if only that had turned out to be the case!
The truth was, I had contracted a virus, via an injury in my right toe that lead to a full diabetic attack that caused gangrene, and lead to my toe to fall off a few days later. Emergency surgery ensued, and with the skills of gifted podiatrists, 97% of my foot was saved. Although I was in a state of total delusion for nearly a month, during my two months in hospital, where the kind and patient dedicated workers at the Drake Center went about the slow arduous task of repairing a broken human being who, in the beginning stages, was very close to death.
I did not have time to think about beer, although during this extended stay, nurses, aides, and doctors became aware of my 18 years as a professional beer writer, which eventually lead to a therapist who asked me what was my favourite beer? Well after sampling many thousands of beers, this is a question that has no answer. Although this was my reply:
"If I appear dead, make sure I am by putting a glass of Aventinus under my nose. The aroma of that magnificent weizen dopplebock could surely revive me."
What a heavy time period this is for me. Still recovering, I am at least back home, where I await the full repair of my right foot, so I can walk again, minus a toe. As the great Van Morrison once said in Till We Get The Healing Done: Till You Deal With The Poison Inside, Sometimes You Got To Just Sit Down And Cry.
Amen to that brothers and sisters, amen to that.
The Return Of New Albion Ale
To put it in the chef's language: this is a beer of love moment. Created with thoughtful respect for brewing tradition, by none other than Jim Koch of Samuel Adams, for the pioneering efforts of microbrewer Jack McAuliffe, founder of the short lived New Albion Brewing Company, credited for starting up artisan brewing in the United States, which, in the nearly 40 years since, has blossomed into a full scale industry. But this was not the case in those days, when there were only 44 breweries in the entire country, and small scale brewing equipment did not exist. Obstacles that made Mr. McAuliffe not only craft his beer, but the tools required to produce it.
Much of this is being written about. There are videos of the resurrection of this recipe at the Boston Beer Company, where the retired pioneer brewer shows Jim Koch an original label bottle, that has no government warning on it. Luckily, the original yeast strain has been preserved from that time, which makes me wonder: is this the yeast used in Ballantine Ale?
Tasting this beer is a reminder that the struggle to make flavorful beer is no accident. A small group of individuals were determined to not live out their days drinking beer without character. That determination continues to expand.
As for this revival, the beer itself is remarkable for its simplicity. Using only cascade hops, this pale (as in clear golden colour) ale has a nutty, honey note that is gentle and very drinkable. Quite subtle, compared to the hop bomb creations of this century, but so what? This was good drinking beer without any pretension, in an era when such creations were very difficult to find.
My advice, for whatever it is worth, is to try and see if you enjoy this ale. Putting aside its historical significance, and damn it, just drink this ale. Cheers!

Public.Resource.Org is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation dedicated to publishing and sharing public domain materials in the United States and internationally. It was founded by Carl Malamud and is based in Sebastopol, California.
Public.Resource.Org takes particular interest in digitizing and making accessible the works of the United States Federal Government, which because of US government licensing rules for its own work are almost always in the public domain. Major projects conducted by the organization include the digitizing and sharing of large numbers of court records, US government-produced video, and laws of various places.
The organization often advertises its work by saying "Yes We Scan". The Yes We Scan focus as of autumn 2013 is an effort to digitize and publish every available set of safety standards for every government in the world.
Operation strategy[edit]
Malamud works on the premise that information in the public domain, and particularly government-generated information of this sort, ought to be as easy as possible for the public to access.[1] In doing this, he identifies interesting collections of information held by organizations which have failed to grant free public access to it.[1] Two typical circumstances are that the creator of the information has failed to make it available online in any form, or that the creator has provided the information to a private company which itself charges fees for access to the information.[1] At this point, Malamud acquires the free information himself, publishes it in public.resource.org as a free communication channel, and then demonstrates publicly that he has made information free when otherwise it would not be and calls for pressure on the holder of the information to collaborate in developing the information release.[1]
Access to United States legal resources[edit]
In 2007 Malamud began publishing the full text of United States legal opinions dating from 1880 in an effort to begin a process intended to create a free publicly accessible database intended to hold the entirety of US Case law.[1] Goals of the project included the creation of "an unencumbered full-text repository of the Federal Reporter, the Federal Supplement, and the Federal Appendix" and "an unencumbered full-text repository of all state and federal cases and codes." [1] In describing this project, journalist Tim O'Reilly described this information to be "clearly public data" yet also "the crown jewels of public data available for profit", as companies including Westlaw had collected billions of dollars in fees for granting access to this data.[1]
Malamud called for increased awareness that Westlaw was a commercial broker of the United States Federal Reporter, Federal Supplement, and Federal Appendix.[1] While Westlaw had been adding value to the content by indexing it with their proprietary West American Digest System and accompanying summaries, the purchase of their products was the only way to access much of the public domain material they hosted.[1] Malamud began to distribute these materials for free while saying in an open letter to the company[1]
…it seems fairly clear that a large part of the publication stream is tightly interwoven into the very substance of the operation of the courts, with West serving as the either contractual or de-facto sole vendor reporting on behalf of the court. … You have already received rich rewards for the initial publication of these documents … We wish to make this information available to (the public) … It is crucial that the public domain data be available for anybody to build upon.[1]
In 2010 Google awarded the project 2 million USD in funding through their Project 10^100 challenge to submit ideas for changing the world.[2][3]
Public.Resource.Org collects old and forgotten United States government video, digitizes it, and distributes it for free online in a project called FedFlix. Video is purchased or requested from government agencies such as the National Technical Information Service.[4] These videos are digitized and uploaded with metadata to YouTube and Public.Resource.Org's servers.[4] Most of these videos were produced with federal government funding and intended for educational purposes.[4]
YouTube's Content ID tool helps copyright holders make requests to remove their copyrighted videos from YouTube. Malamud has complained that large media organizations are using this tool to unfairly attack and call for the removal of Public.Resource.Org's upload of US federal government videos on the improper claim of their copyright over them, when in fact these works are purported by the US government to be public domain works.[5]
Yes We Scan[edit]
"Yes We Scan" is a phrase used as a name for various Public.Resource.Org projects which have the goal of digitizing and making available large collections of documents.
In 2009 when Carl Malamud petitioned to become the Public Printer of the United States the campaign slogan was "Yes we scan!"[6]
In 2011 PublicResource.org submitted a "YesWeScan.org" proposal to the United States federal government petitioning system We the People asking for the creation of a plan to scan all public federal government holdings.[7] David Ferriero responded to the petition describing efforts to increase availability of government archives.[7]
In 2013 Public.Resource.Org organized a fundraiser for a Yes We Scan project to collect, digitize, and make available all government safety standards in every country.[8] In 2010 Public.Resource.Org managed a smaller project to free the public safety codes in California in the United States.[9]
C-SPAN video licensing[edit]
In 2007 Malamud petitioned for more open access to some C-SPAN recordings.
C-SPAN is a private media company which records and broadcasts the discussions of the United States Congress.[10] The company's business model is to provide its recordings for fees to cable and satellite television broadcasters.[10]
In February 2007, Nancy Pelosi was publishing on her blog as Speaker of the United States House of Representatives and inserted video clips from C-SPAN into her messages.[10] Persons representing her opposing political party claimed that she was violating copyright in using the videos.[10] C-SPAN investigated the situation and found that in some cases she was and in other cases she was not, and they clarified their position in the media.[10]
C-SPAN confirmed that that through more than 25 years of operating it had consistently asserted its copyright over all of the material which it created with its own cameras, which was 85-95% of its content.[10] The rest of its content was produced on the House and Senate floors with government cameras, and this material was in fact public domain content as a work of the US federal government.[10] A representative of C-SPAN said that "It is perfectly understandable to me that people would be confused… (because the situation is that) when a congressman says something on the floor it is public domain, but (when) he walks down the street to a committee hearing or give a speech and (then) it is not public domain.[10] The representative went on to say that "I think a lot of people don't understand (that) C-Span is a business, just like CNN is, … (and) If we don't have a revenue stream, we wouldn't have six crews ready to cover Congressional hearings."[10]
In 2007 Malamud petitioned for more open access to some C-SPAN recordings. Electronic Frontier Foundation credited Malamud's efforts and a letter to Brian Lamb of S-CPAN to their agreement in in 2007 to make congressional recordings much more accessible.[11][12]
Smithsonian Institution protest[edit]
In 2006 Malamud complained that private company Showtime Networks and the publicly owned Smithsonian Institution were entering a contract to establish Smithsonian Networks without sufficient public disclosure.[13] Under the contract Showtime would be able to deny permission to other media producers wishing access to Smithsonian collections.[14] Documentarian Ken Burns said of this deal "I find this deal terrifying... It feels like the Smithsonian has essentially optioned America's attic to one company".[14]
Ralph Nader endorses the work of the organization.[15]

With Splinter Cell Double Agent charging down the assembly line to rush your local games-vendor, we thought we'd take a moment to drag you down memory lane. We've logged hours and hours with this game, and not just because our bosses pay us to: we really, really like Splinter Cell Double Agent. So, we've compiled a selection of some of our choicest coverage along with some new tidbits we've assembled to get you in the mood for the stealthy slayage arriving next week.
We'll start with the brand new videos we got from Ubisoft featuring the voice of Sam Fisher, acclaimed (at least by us) actor Michael Ironside. The note we received with these brief interviews mentioned that Mr. Ironside is "a method actor who keeps in character between takes" which is a statement that chills us to the marrow of our bones considering how creepy the character of Sam Fisher can get - he must be fun to hang out with while making these games (shudder). Seriously though, watch these short snippets of interviews with Michael Ironside - we were surprised by his dedicated attitude and ownership of the Sam Fisher character, plus he throws in some pretty poignant observations.

Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Primary Purpose: Supportive Care |
Official Title: | Predicting Weight Loss in People With Cancer: Development of a Screening Tool |
Resource links provided by NLM:
Further study details as provided by National Cancer Institute (NCI):
Primary Outcome Measures:
- Percentage weight loss by measuring height and weight at baseline and at 3 months [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool Score at initial screening [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Response to the Appetite and Symptom Questionnaire at baseline [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Level of blood C-reactive protein at baseline [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Clinical condition, defined as diagnosis and stage of disease, treatment, and performance status at baseline [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Estimated Enrollment: | 220 |
Study Start Date: | September 2007 |
Estimated Primary Completion Date: | August 2008 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
- To identify people with cancer who are at greatest risk of future weight loss by the development of a simple and practical screening tool.
- To estimate the reliability of the Appetite and Symptom Questionnaire (part 1).
- To develop a screening tool based on the ability of the optimal combination of items from the three measures (ASQ, MUST, CRP) to predict clinically significant weight loss over three months (part 2).
- To estimate the sensitivity and specificity at various cut-points of the developed screening tool in predicting clinically significant weight loss (> 10% weight loss or between 5% and 10% weight loss with a BMI < 20 kg/m^2) over three months (part 2).
OUTLINE: This is a two-part study.
- Part 1: Patients are asked to complete the Appetite and Symptom Questionnaire (ASQ) on two occasions, one week apart.
- Part 2: Patients are screened at baseline for risk of malnutrition using the Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool. Blood samples are also taken at this time to establish the level of C-reactive protein and patients complete the ASQ. Patients are weighed using calibrated scales and height measurements are obtained. Patients are asked about unplanned weight loss over the previous 3-6 months. Patients are weighed again at 3 months. Percentage weight loss is calculated at 3 months.

Doubledecker Tram
Only one of 3 tramways in the world that have regular operations of double-decker trams, are the trams in Hong Kong.
Not only are they a form of transport, they have also become a major tourist attraction, being very popular amongst visitors.
The tram line is 13kg long mostly street running along the northern coast of Hong Kong Island from Kennedy Town town to Shau Kei Wan.
The tram is a very inexpensive way to get around, with a journey costing only about HK$2 for a journey of up to 13km!- Trains
Traveling on the Trams
I remember frequently taking buses and trams with my mother and brothers around Kowloon and HK not my favourite thing to do back then as they were ALWAYS completely crammed with hundreds of people, and I was terrified of losing my mother in the crush and back then the seats were made from bamboo strips which pinched the backs of bare little legs when you sat down :(
Cheapest city tour in town
Double decker Tram has a very long history in Hong Kong. You can find them on Hong Kong island only. It costs HK$2 flat rate. A very nice and relax city tour is worth. Be careful for the pickpocket as the trams are mostly crowded of people. Have common sense to protect your property.
Hong Kong Island City Trams
The Hong Kong Island trams are one of my favourite things about Hong Kong. They are like a living piece of the past in the modern city. Like buses, they pick up and let off passengers along the route at designated stops. These electric trams are not just a tourist attraction - they appear to be quite heavily used by locals too.
Passengers pay a standard fare of HK$2 per ride regardless of distance. The payment can be made either by cash (exact amount) or using the Octopus card.
Board the tram at the back of the tram and alight at the front. Pay before before alighting. -
The Locals Call It Ding! Ding!
Riding the tram is one of my favorite experiences in Hong Kong. I had little time back then and took a tram from Admiralty up to the Happy Valley. I chose an upper deck seat and from there saw the colorful streets of HK. It is reliable, covers a good distance, relaxing and best of all...cheap! It costs only HK$2 for adults and HK1 for children. You must pay exact fare upon leaving.

Take a Hong Kong Tram
This is isn't the fastest way to get around, but it's fun riding around in these historic and thin trams. Built in 1904, there used to be more of these running around on HK's streets. Nowadays, they are located on the Hong Kong Island and cruise to:
-Sheng Wan
-Central area to Causeway Bay
-Near Happy Valley
You can grab a tram at the Starr Ferry Terminal in Central.
The trams run from 6 am to 1 am.- Family Travel

Double Decker Trams
Beginning in 1902, the Hong Kong Tramway Electric Company Ltd. (a British company) began construction of the tramway line in Hong Kong, the first part of which, from Wan Chai to Shau Kei Wan via Happy Valley, opened in 1904. In 1922, Hong Kong Tramway Limited (HKT), took over the operation and still operates as a private organization as part of a company called the Wharf Group. Constant operation since 1904 makes the Hong Kong tram line one of the oldest streetcar operations in the world.
The tram is a very inexpensive mode of transportation when compared with other kinds of transport in Hong Kong. It costs HK$2 (US$0.25) for a trip on the tram. However, there are only six routes, serving the north of HK Island and covering a distance of 30 kilometers (18 miles). -
Crossing Central Hong Kong
Running the length of Central Hong Kong, the tram has been rolling along for over a century now. The cost is only HK$2 (you pay when you alight), and the best seat is the front of the upper deck. When waiting for the tram, I usually would only get on if it wasn't crowded and I knew I could get that seat... well worth it!!
THE transport value of the city!
Yes I know most will argue the Star Ferry as the best transport value in the city. But for $2HKD you could ride this tram to the end. Then pay again and ride to the other end. There were enough different lines to try that I spent a full afternoon taking in the city from my perch on the back of the upper deck.
I believe these are the only double deck trams still operating in the world. -
Inside double-decker trams
It is fun to travel on the upper deck of those tall trams... you have the opportunity to see things you would not if you were in the lower deck...
But be quick! It uses to be crowded up there... we had luck this time.- Family Travel
the tram
Tram run on the roads of the north side of Hongkong Island. Only 2HKD for all the way. Get on from the ass of one and get off from the nose of it. They stop on every 200-300 meters so you don't have to call the driver to stop.
All you have to do is just to ride on it and keep watching the sight out of the window, then drop off of it when you find your destination. Very convenient.
But remember, they stop every tram stops so they don't run very fast. If you are in a hurry, take a taxi, instead.
And beware, the vehicle is very tiny and easily get crowded. It is a bit hard to get off. Move to forward a.s.a.p.- Road Trip
- Trains
Hong Kong Island Tram
The Hong Kong Island Tram is a cheap and easy way to transit Hong Kong Island from Causeway Bay to Western. Since there is only one line, there are no transfers to worry about and you get a nice view of the city while you ride.
Ride the old Hong Kong Island tram
The tram is the cheapest way to travel along the north shore of Hong Kong Island. It is slow, and sometimes crowded, but still a Hong Kong activity that you must experience.
The Star Ferry will take you from Tsim Sha Tsui to either Central or Wanchai. To connect these two destinations, you can opt for the tram and try to get the coveted top front seat for a bird's eye view of the downtown district.
If you are going east from Central to Causeway Bay and beyond, make sure you look at the destination sign because some trams go to Happy Valley where the horse race track is located.- Budget Travel

one of the oldest transportation in Hong Kong
it's one of the oldest, cheapest but slowest transportation in Hong Kong. it appeared on the streets of Hong Kong in 1904. it runs along the oldest and most busy roads and streets in Hong Kong Island (no tram in Kowloon and New Territories). but if you are in hurry, it's not recommended to be a fast and effective tool.

Streetcars on Hong Kong Island
The tram is the cheapest way to travel on Hong Kong Island, travelling from Sheung Wan all the way to E. Hong Kong Island. It only costs $2, & is a very good experience.
Note: When it rains, the windows are NOT CLOSED, so be prepared to be a little soaked. Also, many locals use the trams, so it can get really SQUISHY sometimes. The train during rainy days also move very slow, so you could be stuck in the tram for hours! Also, unlike the MTR, the trams are very dirty, so I would wear something more casual in the tram.
Please use Octopus cards to pay for the fare, or bring EXACT CHANGE & have it ready. The perilous wait for others to get on board does sometimes cause problems. : (- Family Travel

Out Of Office Replies
Posted by: | CommentsA default SBS 2003 installation is configured so that when a user enables "out of office replies" in Exchange, the replies are sent only to internal accounts. If you have Out Of Office enabled on your account and someone from outside your network sends you e-mail, the SBS Exchange configuration will not send an OOO reply to that external address. This configuration can be changed, but for my clients, I've always left it at defaults, mostly for security reasons.
Today, I ran across another reason to keep Out Of Office replies from going outside of the network.
Read More→
Posted by: | CommentsSome lessons are learned once, some you learn over and over and over again. Case in point:
A client needed assistance installing an SBS 2003 server into an existing Windows 2003 domain. He had looked at the documentation in the Microsoft KB 884453 but decided he wanted my assistance with the process. So I get to the site and start going through the process.
There's one key piece of information missing from the KB, however, when you use the SPS 2003 SP1 integrated installation media. When installing the server portion, the setup enables the Windows firewall on the NICs in the server so that no bad stuff can get in. This is a wonderful change from the original install media where you really had to disconnect the NICs from any live network when doing the install to make sure that the box didn't get hammered by Blaster of Slammer or any other other threat that was protected against with SP1. But I overlooked it. So when I did the dcpromo, the box came up into the network correctly. When I installed DNS, it installed correctly. But I could not get the two DCs to replicate.
Fortunately my friend Wayne helped me find what should have been an obvious step in the process for me – can you ping both machines by FQDN from each other? I could ping the existing server from the new server, but the old server could not ping the new server. When I went in and disabled the Windows Firewall on the NIC in the new server, replication started happening immediately and the remainder of the installation process finished successfully.
So add this one to your hat – when you follow MS KB884453 and you're using SBS 2003 SP1 integrated installation media, you need to turn off the Windows Firewall on the NICs to let replication complete.
More reasons why System State Backups are a Good Idea
Posted by: | CommentsThe default settings for the built-in backup tools with SBS 2003 include a System State backup every time the backup process runs. The System State backup collects not only the files in the Windows system directories, but it also backs up the registry and the Active Directory database.
Jeff Middleton's disaster recovery presentation at SMB Nation Amsterdam from last week makes a few references to the system state backup and how it can be used to get back from a real jam. But I was reminded this morning of another very important reason why system state backups are important.

New Options for Windows on Mac
Posted by: | CommentsWhile I was off galavanting around Amsterdam, several announcements came across that will cause a stir in the Mac community.
Apple released a tool called Boot Camp that will allow the new Intel-based Macs to install Windows directly onto the Mac and boot either into Windows or into Mac OS. This is currently a beta product, but it's expected to be a free tool available to users of the new Macs. This will allow Macs to run Windows and Windows-based apps directly on the Intel chipset, bypassing any virtualization, which will increase the speed of the Windows side. Reports say that Windows XP on the Mac Intel hardware runs faster than on other Intel-based PCs. The downside is that you cannot run both OSes at the same time. If you boot into Windows, you will not be able to run Mac apps or possibly access the Mac data that's on the drive.
Parallels has released a beta of their product, Parallels Workstation, which will run Windows on an Intel-based Mac in a virtual session. This will allow you to run both OS platforms at the same time, although neither OS will run quite as fast as if it were the only app running on the system (ala Boot Camp).
The Microsoft Virtual PC product for Mac currently will not run on the Intel-based Macs and I am unaware of any expected updates to the current product to allow that. Possibly in a future release, but with the Parallels Workstation price point of $49, it'll be hard to beat.
Keep your ears open for more developments on this front…
Getting the current date and time in batch files
Posted by: | CommentsI still do the occasional batch file solution for tasks, and sometimes I need to get the current date and time on the system for processing. Since I just had to research this again for another little project, I decided it was high time to blog it.
Batch files can use the system variables %DATE% and %TIME% to get the current date and time of the system. These variables return data in the following format:

Chili's joins the casual-dining blame game
Its parent company claims the higher payroll tax and gas prices are responsible for slumping sales -- just like Red Lobster and Olive Garden.
Why? Brinker fingered the lapsed Social Security payroll tax cut, rising gas prices and delayed federal tax refunds for its dour quarterly outlook.
If all of this sounds oddly familiar, it's because Olive Garden and Red Lobster parent company Darden International (DRI) made a similar claim while revising its annual forecast last week. Like Darden, however, Chili's and Brinker have a lot more dragging down their sales than just current events.
For much of of 2012, sales at Chili's and Brinker's second chain, Maggiano's Little Italy, were up 2.7% from 2011, and the company's share price increased 50%. Unfortunately for Chili's, 2-for-$20 meal deals contributed the biggest portion of that growth even as industry experts warned such pricing was unsustainable.
Now, Brinker says, sales at Chili's are down 2.2% for the third quarter and Maggiano's sales are flat. It's an industrywide problem for casual-dining establishments, whose collective sales have fallen each quarter since spring of 2010 as they increasingly lose customers ages 18 through 47, according to NPD Group.
The problem is especially acute for chains like Chili's, where the cost of meals has been rising and meal deals cut off a large chunk of profits. The cost of dining out climbed 2.7% over the last year, according to the Consumer Price Index. That's ahead of the 2.2% overall rate of inflation but still far less than customers absorb once a chain's sale prices fade away. Customer who pay $10 for a promotional deal will pay 20% to 40% more when the price rises to $12 or $14 a few months later.
Even Wal-Mart (WMT) used the same excuse as Brinker to explain away its soft performance in January -- despite competitors like Target (TGT), Macy's (M) and TJX (TJX) reporting rising sales during the same month. But the casual-dining industry's woes predate the items on Brinker's current list of problems.
It's not about the portion size, and it's not even about the product's quality. It's about the value. If diners are willing to lap up your meals at $10 but turn up their noses when they're $2 to $4 more, no drop in payroll taxes or gas prices will make them change their minds.
The way the economy is heading, the only meals we will be eaten will be at the Costco restaurant:
Hot Dog and Coke $1.50
Pizza $1.99
My wife and I both went from working overtime...to no overtime...to part time...to doing what ever it takes to pay bills (mostly small contract work) and not knowing how we will make it through the year. Can't speak for anyone else, but we won't be eating at Chili's anytime soon.
We see no strength in the economy. We see no strenght in our client's business.
This author is apparently an expert on restaurants, where-as those whom actually run them apparently have no clue...yeah right.
When it comes to restaurants, the lion's share of the market goes to the new ones and the established ones that managed to rise above the competition. There have to be at least twenty restaurants in the same price and product category as Chili's in my town and I haven't been to all of them, so why should I go back to Chili's instead of trying one I haven't been to or better yet a good local non-chain place?
The price of ultimate success for chain places is ubiquity. They're everywhere and not all that different from their competition. I can go to a Chili's in any large town in America and it's the same menu and environment where ever. Been there and done that. I like trying something new or at least something that I can't get anywhere.
