How are you measuring effectiveness for Weibo campaigns?
How many marketers are still chasing the hype of Weibo marketing? After all these years, some still don't get it. There is no hype in online marketing; there is only the cost versus benefit.
In China, the "zombie fans" on Weibo have developed themselves into an interesting micro economy. The market price of buying 1,000 zombie fans for a Weibo marketing campaign is US$1. The zombie brokers guarantee two original zombie tweets per day in addition to about 10 to 100 mechanical retweets. Then your Weibo campaign could be as lively as having 50,000 fans for just US $50. If you are pressured by your boss to produce numbers instead of an answer, then take the deal and get the job done. No one will judge you.
Nonetheless, if you and your boss want the answer, this article is for you. In general, we all have a proper understanding of how to measure marketing effectiveness. However, as social marketing is still nascent in the marketing world, scientific methodology has yet been fully developed for marketers. Therefore, I take a new approach to predict the social momentum and try to evaluate the life cycle of a Weibo marketing campaign before it dies down. By the way, I am not a fan of measuring social sentiment because sentiment is a very complex issue and I believe there is no right tool out there yet.
The following are the screenshots of the social momentum of two consumer brands' Weibo marketing campaigns:
Fans and tweets are two fundamental elements we invest in a Weibo marketing campaign and that's why I use them to come up with a ratio as the social momentum. As the charts above show, Adidas has a growing trend whereas HTC shows a downward trend. Should we conclude that Adidas has done a better job?
Don't misinterpret that social momentum is an indicator to determine if it is good or bad for your social marketing spend. Instead, it alerts you if fans are still fond of your news. To scientifically measure the effectiveness, you need to add inbound traffic of your website into the picture for a holistic view.
Although one of the difficulties of measuring social marketing is that a lot of data are required for the measurement, all these data are widely available to you. Don't just take the numbers and think they are the answer for you without measuring them.
The cost of spending on Weibo is your time (of course it requires money if you hire an agency to manage it for you). The benefit of doing Weibo is that you find a way to court your fans and bring them to your website for deeper engagement. It shouldn't just be the number of fans.

Sainsbury's cans DVD rentals
Not pukka
The essential guide to IT transformation
Sainsbury's is dumping its online DVD rental service. The website will be hauled down tomorrow, with punters redirected to Sainsbury's erstwhile partner in the venture, Lovefilm.
The supermarket said although the offer of unlimited rentals, priced from £7.97 per month for one DVD at a time, had been a hit, a review had said it didn't fit in with the rest of the online strategy. Tesco continues to offer DVD rentals, also from £7.97 per month.
Sainsbury's now intends to concentrate on Amazon's turf - online sales of DVDs, CDs and books - as the former number one supermarket attempts to claw its way back from years of falling market share.
The two biggest online rental players, Lovefilm and Screen Select, will soon merge under the Lovefilm brand, and control more than half the UK DVD by-post market. ®

Empoli name Perotti as new coach
Serie A club Empoli named Attillo Perotti as their new coach on Tuesday, after a poor start to the season spelt the end for his predecessor Daniele Baldini.
Empoli's 2-0 weekend defeat by Udinese left them second from bottom in the division, with two points from their first six games and the worst defensive record of any top-flight side.
"I'm very disappointed about the club's decision. I would have saved them from relegation," Baldini was quoted as saying in La Gazzetta dello Sport on Tuesday.
Fifty-seven-year-old Perotti's only previous experience in Serie A dates back to the 2000-2001 season with Verona.

Sounds like someone was shootin for Putin.
Starting this fall, you'll be allowed to ride the long bus, with a guardian.
ow about some STP dead and bloated in his honor? (said buckwheat).
Notice they say that as the market dips.
Long term trend still on.
I'm sure it does. I'm sure it does. Yessir, I'm sure it does.
Whaddaya mean "bwaaaa" ?
More like "BWAAAAAAAhahahahahah!"
Trader for GS! "BWAAAAAAAhahahahahah!"
"a group home fukup."
You never cease to amaze. LOL
I remember when droll alert was "palerider", but I sure do miss "polerider"
Nyuk nyuk nyuk!
woob, woob, woob.
hmmmm, ya we'll take yer word.
Sorry, been there done that. Earlier today, as a matter of face.
Got anything new?
Sounds like you just noticed this?
To get long the silver.
I recommend the "Fizzzzzzzz-acle".
I mentioned a couple months ago, by that dip. We went sideways and up since. Don't expect it to go down much from here.....it's tending. This next move will see lifetime highs beyond the expectations of most.
Yeah, I'm thinking maybe someday I will join them.
And no religion too.
And no religion, too.
This is only going to work for those of you, who have been holding shares of quality stocks for many years.
Short some near the money, or even in the money calls, with LEAP expirations.
If you're like me you'll be taking some of the premium and buying some "junk" bearish ETF calls with the income, or possibly some puts on select symbols.
I mentioned the same technique last year, and I'll mention it again now. The benefit is that you're using other traders money to take a crack at something going against the trend. The trade off, or downside, is that it can "water down" your profits.
Valuations are getting rich, and investors are starting to get complacent, if not downright euphoric. This in the face of fundamentals that are worse than 1999 or 2007.
You can't rule out a year or even several more years of this kind of action. Today we saw the markets open deeply lower, then rise throughout the day.
The interesting thing is, despite rising all day, the markets still ended the day with a loss, and finished on a down note.
So lets get back to the strategy. Being short calls against the stocks you hold long term like this can at least protect you to some extent in the face of a nasty down move. Those usually come when the bullish cheerleaders of the world consider impossible.
Over, and out.
"Reduce population".
We're looking for volunteers.
Those who think "Reduce population" is a good idea can go first.
That's great, but what happens if they successfully rebel against the Rothchilds?
Maybe there is free money after all.
They have republicans in China?
Nyuk nyuk nyuk.
Tell that to the beagle!

I know the verision on Myfico for Trans Union is an older model but it is the only one I have access to at this time.
My question is - do most people find their scores higher or lower with the new version. I am trying to get a guestimate as to what my score might be on the newer model. I am sitting at 669 on the myfico version.
Thank you!
Always assume your TU04 (assuming you're gunning for a mortgage) is lower. It might be higher, but at least you would be better off had you not prepared. IME, it was a mixed bag. DW's TU04 was higher than TU98 when compared the exact same day after a mortgage app. My TU04 was 10 points lower when compared the same day. Seems like for most TU04 is lower.
My TU04 was lower by a handful of points.
Both my wife and I had a TU04 score much higher than the myfico version. 20+ point difference.
The TU98 score offered here is getting as bad as using a FAKO. Anecdotally, I've heard that Barclay's still uses the TU98 model but NO other major lender does. TU04, like EQ's Beacon 5 and Experian's V2 seem to be the standard, at least for the mortgage industry. Whatever politics that prevent MyFico from preventing them to offer the most widely used TU04 score escapes me.
myFICO is the consumer division of FICO. Since its introduction 20 years ago, the FICO® Score has become a global standard for measuring credit risk in the banking, mortgage, credit card, auto and retail industries. 90 of the top 100 largest U.S. financial institutions use the FICO Score to make consumer credit decisions.>> About myFICO

Ringwood farmers' market set to go monthly
3:00pm Wednesday 30th April 2014 in News
THE return of a farmers' market to Ringwood has proved such a success it is set to become a monthly event.
Shoppers and businesses were so thrilled to have the Hampshire Farmers' Market back in Ringwood after a four-year absence they called for it to be a regular occurrence.
Markets have been booked right through until November and a summer food festival has also been booked for June 21.
Alex Handford, business manager for the markets, said: "We are all thrilled with the success of this first market at Ringwood and the response from the public.
"Many of our local producers at the market reported customers requesting a regular monthly market and it is great that we are in a position to be able to respond so positively and so quickly to that demand.
Shoppers can choose from a produce including meats, cakes, apple juice, plants and crafts.

German Federal Minister for the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety Barbara Hendricks rides a bicycle to tour a public park in Duisburg, Germany.
Join a bike tour of five different coffee shops on Saturday, September 6, 2014.
Ride starts 9 AM at House of Bagels at 11th and San Carlos, San Jose CA. Ride at a casually caffeinated pace to Roy's Station in Japantown, then loop back to Caffe Bel Bacio in Little Italy, I Java in Delmas Park, then B2 in San Pedro Market.
Like the graphic says, bring $$$ for drinks, treats and tips, a helmet, and a lock.
Cantitoe Road is a small importer and distributor of specialty products for bicycles. They sent me a sample of the "Espresso" bicycle tube inflator and sealant that they import from Effetto Mariposa ("the Butterfly Effect") in Italy.
You can buy the cartridge alone or in a kit with the bottle cage mount, which firmly and unobtrusively holds the cartridge in place. It looks bulky compared to frame pumps, but in two weeks of riding I've never bumped a foot or leg into this, and the cartridge hasn't budged in spite of curb hops and bumpy roads.
I finally had opportunity to test the sealant this morning when I went off road to explore a homeless trail behind the Costco on Coleman Avenue in Santa Clara. I searched for a way to cross the Caltrain tracks under De La Cruz Avenue. I found numerous goathead thorns in both of my tires. Bah.
I kept the thorns in place to keep the holes plugged and managed another five miles before the front tire became too soft to ride. I quickly slid the inflator onto the bicycle tube valve (Presta only; this doesn't work on Schraeder valves), and pressed the button to watch foamy latex fly all over the place.
I then looked at the pictorial instructions a little more carefully and noted the part where I'm supposed to hold the plastic tube in place on the valve. I couldn't hold phone, the tube, and press the inflator button simultaneously so there's no video, but I successfully sealed and inflated the tire on this second go around.
I inflated the front tire to about 60 lbs with this canister, and had enough left over to inject sealant into my rear tire. I topped both tires with the frame pump and went on my merry way.
The latex used inside is the same stuff used to seal tubeless setups. It's moderately messy — you don't want to use this indoors — but cleans up quickly and easily. I got some on my hands but it rubs right off after it dries. Still, it beats the mess of removing tire and tube from a bike to patch or replace the holey tube.
I suspect the liquid latex doesn't do well in below freezing temperatures, so the icebikers who read Cyclelicious may consider storing this in an inside pocket while riding.
The stuff is pricey at $15 a can, but I can see it coming in handy if you're in a hurry or riding in darkness or inclement weather and just want to get going. I recommend it and I plan to buy another can to replace what I used this morning.
Many of the usual bike shops in the San Francisco Bay Area and in Santa Cruz carry Cantitoe Road products, although I don't know which stock the Espresso sealant canister. See the full dealer listing here. Cantitoe Road also sells direct through the Internet. They have a number of other cool products that I plan to look at in the near future.
There's a pre-season football game between the Santa Clara 49ers and …. somebody else coming up on Sunday. This is the first football game in the new Levi's Stadium at the north end of Santa Clara, CA. I've updated the Levi's Stadium bike directions page to reflect the experiences of those who attended the inaugural stadium event in which the San Jose Earthquakes defeated the Sounders the other week.
I also received replies in response to the concerns I outlined about bicycle access from the Santa Clara Bicycle Advisory Committee and from Levi's Stadium officials.
To wit, a summary of my concerns and the responses I received from Levi's Stadium operations:
- Trail closure surprises: "We are currently planning on placing permanent signage at the trail which will identify which days the trail will be closed."
- Trail detour: "We apologize for the inconvenience. Moving forward the staff will have a map which will detail the detour, so they can distribute."
- No bike parking at Red Lots 1 and 6: (This turned out to be partially incorrect, though that was due to information provided by stadium ushers): " There was available bicycle parking in Red Lot 1; you are correct Red Lot 6 was not set up for bike parking.There will be bike parking in Red Lot 6 moving forward (golf course by David's). Also this parking will be available for NFL and Non NFL events."
- Staff did not know location of bike parking, bike detours, etc: "We are sorry to hear and will make sure that all staff are aware moving forward. We appreciate your input."
- Insufficient bike parking: (My bad, again due to information provided by stadium ushers on the game day) "I am not quite sure about the above, as the Red Lot 1 accommodates 750 bikes plus it was not filled to capacity. We will keep an eye on this."
I'm told these stadium issues will be on the Santa Clara Bicycle Advisory Committee agenda for next Wednesday, August 20, 2014, though as of this writing the agenda is not available online. The BAC members I've spoken with are concerned about the issues as well.

The second of two San Jose future bikeways meetings takes place tonight, Wednesday, August 13, 2014. This meeting at the Gardner Community Center at 520 West Virginia Street will cover proposed bikeways in Willow Glen and streets west of downtown, including the important Park Avenue east-west connector between San Jose and the city of Santa Clara.
<-- more -->
I laid out the bikeway tentative details in this post, but to sum up, the city DOT proposes bike lanes on Park Avenue from downtown all the way to Newhall Street, the entire length of Stockton Street from the Alameda (under the Caltrain tracks) to Bellarmine, Julian Street from The Alameda to the Guadalupe River, and Lincoln Avenue from San Carlos Street to Virginia Avenue.
Street parking will be removed from one side of both Park and Lincoln to make space for the bike lanes. Unsurprisingly, some business owners lament the loss of street parking, believing that increasing the flow of people through their neighborhoods will somehow result in a loss of business and income for them.
The meeting begins at 6 PM. Bring a lock for your bike. Consider ways to effectively communicate the benefits of these bike facilities to business owners who fear that change will always result in negative consequences.
Also: SJDOT to present St John Street Improvement Project August 21, 2014 — The City of San José Department of Transportation (DOT) will host a public meeting to discuss the proposed street improvements along the St. John Street corridor in downtown San Jose. According to SJDOT, the St. John Street Improvement Project includes a variety of pedestrian and bicycle improvements as well as enhancements to intersections to improve vehicle circulation and enhance safety for all modes of transportation. This meeting takes place Thursday, August 21, 2014 beginning at 6 PM, San Jose City Hall, 200 E Santa Clara St., Wing Room 120, where presenters will discuss proposed improvements for St John Street between the SAP Center and 1st Street. San Jose Bike Train rides the portion of St John between the Shark Tank loading dock to the Guadalupe River Trail.
The meeting notice highlights parking validation for the City Hall garage, but makes no mention of the Bay Area Bike Share kiosk located at City Hall, or that VTA buses 22, 522, 23, 55, 63, 64, ,65, 72, 73, 81 and the DASH shuttle all stop within a block of City Hall.
In other news, SJDOT deputy Paul Smith will visit Copenhagen. Smith was hired away from the city of Portland, OR last year.
The sale of vehicles classed as "light trucks" — pickup trucks, SUVs, minivans and crossover vehicles — began climbing dramatically in the United States during the 1980s. Light truck market share passed 50% in 2000, with sales of truck-like vehicles remaining the majority of auto sales in spite of a dip during the 2008 recession.
These vehicles take up 25% more space than an average car. Doubling the numbers of these larger vehicles over the past 30 years is equivalent to removing a full lane from an eight lane freeway.
Larger vehicles take up all kinds of space. They need more room in the lane, more parking space, more garage space, and more maneuvering room. But these vehicles sell because we like them.
Like some of you, like me, and like many other young Americans, a younger Danny Kim loved big things with engines. He loved them so much he became an ASE certified Land Rover mechanic. As a side project, he took a pair of Land Rover Defender utility vehicles and stripped them to the frame to rebuild them into his perfect SUV.
While welding beneath the quarter-ton chassis of his perfect truck, Danny was nearly crushed to death when a stand failed and the truck frame fell to the ground. This accident led Danny to reflect on why he needed to build such a large vehicle when most people drive alone.
His solution: cut the car in half and balance it to create the perfect city vehicle, the Lit Motors C-1!
This electrically powered, street-legal two wheeled vehicle comes in at under 10 feet long and 40 inches wide. It can carry two people and a small amount of cargo. You get a full charge within about six hours from a standard wall outlet.
But will it sell?
This might look like an enclosed electric motorcycle. This helps mitigate the problem of space, but to many people, "two wheels" sounds a lot like "danger." Consumers are often motivated to buy larger vehicles because of their perceived safety benefits.
Kim wanted to solve the space problem, but his solution doesn't help if nobody buys the smaller vehicle. Kim specifically designed the C-1 to address safety concerns in the larger automotive market. The C-1 is designed with a steel unibody chassis with reinforced doors, seat belts, and multiple airbags.
The really amazing feature of the C-1, however, is its gyroscopic stability system. This is the feature that allows a driver who knows nothing about countersteer and lean to control the C-1. Not only that, this gyroscope keeps the C-1 upright even when it's slammed by a space-hogging truck. How cool is that?
The C-1 is not available for sale just yet, but late last year Lit Motors announced another cool project — the Kubo Electric Cargo Scooter. 45 MPH top speed, 50 mile range, onboard charger, to be available Real Soon Now for about $6,000 plus shipping.

Locals knew Robin Williams as an avid cyclist and was seen on the road near his Marin County home and at cycling events around the San Francisco Bay Area. He appreciated privacy but welcomed company with grace when others joined him on rides.
In this video clip, he discusses cycling in New York and Los Angeles with Jon Stewart.
Rest in peace to this comic genius.
Stephen Baxter wrote a decent piece for the Sentinel about the three foot law coming into effect on September 16. There might be a quote in it from Yours Truly, and of course the usual reader comments following about the law breaking scofflaws that cyclists all are. They don't provide any solutions, of course, so I'll suggest my own: give all of those law-breaking cyclists a car, because more idiots in cars will make our roads safer, less congested, and better in every way!
Read it: Cyclists, police prepare for new 'Three Feet for Safety' law in Santa Cruz County: New rule requires drivers to keep cyclists at arm's length.
Happy August, all. San Jose Bike Train rolls Wednesday morning, August 6, 2014.
We meet near the Amtrak bus shelter at San Jose Diridon Station and depart at 8 AM for destinations north (toward the Bay) along the Guadalupe River Trail as shown on the map above. It's also become traditional to drop by Bel Bacio Caffe to pick up riders who stop there for a brew.
Bike Train is for those who work along the Guadalupe Parkway / North First Street corridor. This includes the County Buildings on Hedding Street, San Jose International Airport, and the North First office parks on and near Technology Drive, Trimble Road, Montague Expressway, River Oaks, and Tasman Drive, where Bike Train intersects with VTA light rail.
We strive to welcome riders of all abilities, from absolute newcomers to the avid cyclist who likes the social pace of the ride. Fitness apparel, fancy helmets and fast bikes are completely optional for San Jose Bike Train, and we travel at a comfortable 10 to 12 MPH pace. As your ride leader, I typically wear casual office apparel for my commute. For this week's ride, I'll wear a black t-shirt with prominent "San Jose Bike Train" text on the back.
If plan to show up but are running late or can't find us, please ping me via Twitter or the San Jose Bike Train Facebook page. You can also find ride status updates at both of those locations, and I generally create Bike Train Glympse to help you find us if you want to meetup along the way.

One of our 20 Best TV Shows Of The 2013/2014 Season, Showtime's "Masters Of Sex," is certainly one of the most intriguing dramas going on television right now. While the premise could easily have been pushed in a tawdry direction, the first season turned out to be something far richer, with Michael Sheen and Lizzy Caplan leading an array of complex characters, with varying relationships and attitudes to sex. And it says something about how much consideration is given to the supporting characters that Allison Janney got one of the most moving and heartbreaking arcs of the entire first season. And so, needless to say, we're stoked for season two.
And the first trailer is here and things are getting even trickier for Dr. Bill Masters. It would appear his relationship with Virginia will continue, even if it means spurning his wife, and putting his professional career in jeopardy. Oh hey look, there's Danny Huston in what looks like a substantial guest spot too. Where does research end and romance begin with Bill and Virginia? That line seems be getting more and more blurred.
"Masters Of Sex" returns on July 13th at 10 PM. Watch below.
Francesca | June 30, 2014 8:24 AM
Hope it's not jumping the shark already

Oh my God! My heart will burst! 'Masters of Sex' is my favourite show right now and it seems the second season will be even better than the first! I can't wait!

Echo Bay Sauvignon Blanc
Echo Bay - Marlborough - New Zealand
Originating in the Bordeaux region of France, the Sauvignon Blanc grape varietal is today found in many different countries around the world. It is a grape which prefers milder temperatures, as too much exposure to heat dulls the juices within the green skinned fruits, leading to wines which are flat and characterless. As such, it is often found in valley regions, or by the coast where it can benefit from cooling oceanic winds before their characteristic early harvest. Indeed, climate appears to be the main variable in regards to the eventual flavor of Sauvignon Blanc wines, and wineries are constantly experimenting with harvesting dates in order to bring out everything from meadow flavors and grassy notes, to citrus and tropical fruit flavors in the bottle. In general, though, Sauvignon Blanc varietal grapes tend to produce wines which are dry, zesty and crisp in their nature, and extremely refreshing when served chilled.
The beautiful region of Marlborough in the north east of New Zealand's South Island is home to over fifty percent of the country's vineyards, and is most commonly associated with the production of fine white wines, the majority of which are made with the Sauvignon Blanc grape varietal. Since the 1970s, New Zealand has consistently proved that the Marlborough region is one of the most suitable places on earth for the production of high quality white wines, where the hot days and cold nights allow wineries to extend the ripening period for their fine grapes and get far more expression of flavor and terroir from their fruit. The region itself is ideal in other ways, too the mineral rich soils and oceanic breezes assist in the health of the vineyards, and Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay varietal grapes all manage to thrive there.
New Zealand is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful and ecologically diverse countries in the world, and the wines which are produced there are a fine representation of this diversity and overall quality. With beautifully long and warm summers, a brisk oceanic climate and mile upon mile of gently sloping mountainsides, the vineyards which have sprung up there over the past century have brought about truly fantastic results, with wine now contributing a considerable amount to the economy of the country. In recent years, New Zealand wines have won some of the most prestigious awards available in the wine world, with most of the lauded wineries coming from the Auckland region, where there has been considerable effort to replicate the finest wines of the Bordeaux region of France. The Bordeaux grape varietals (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec) all flourish in the mineral rich soil of the region, and the results have been outstanding, marking New Zealand a strong contender for finest New World wine country.

4.33/5 rDev +8%
I got this bottle in a trade with Traquairlover. Thanks Will!
This was bottled 021109 and labelled as 10.5%abv.
It pours a slightly hazy orange red with a good 2 finger head of billowy foam.
The smell is of caramel malt, some fruitiness, and some light notes of citrus.
The taste brings the malt to the front with a huge caramel sweetness with the just the right light note of hoppy bitterness, I want to say pine, to temper the sweetness. It is still out of balance, pleasingly though on the malty side, where it should be for an English BWSA. And...not much sign of the alcohol at all...very well hidden. That makes this way too easy to drink. ;^)
Medium mouthfeel with just a notch below medium carbonation. The head retention and lacing both turned out to be better than average.
Drinkability? Too good for a brew this strong but I won't dock it for that "flaw". I'm *very* happy I got a chance to try and and I'm very happy with it. A darned good brew!

Smugded dull, off orange color with a thin beige cap, a thin collar maintains throughout the serving. Aroma is light of soft caramel and some toffee with warming ethanol-like warmth floating up from time to time as is a smidge of hoppy pine sap tingle. Flavor denotes the smell perfectly, good load of caramel flavor but not nearly as thick as I like, quite thin in that regards. Notes of toffee mix in, an overall lightened creamy smooth feel overall. Bits of alcoholic warmth and some slight pine bittering come in at the finish and settles out OK. This needs more flavor length and thicker body. Just barely above average in my book. This was my 3rd bottle (at different times/days) and each seemed the same, so no off bottling here I think. Just a bit bleak for a barleywine. I remember liking the 2002 version better.
Thanks to ManekiNeko for the bottles!

Bottled in April of 2006, this barleywine is now about 4 years old. IIRC, I picked it up at Norm's in VA.
Clear ruby red with a dense off-white head with decent retention and a little lacing, this beer appears to be quite high in carbonation. What that helps achieve is bringing the great nose right up front. Quite fabulous with plenty of fruity oxidation with raisins and dates, there's also a richly layered combination of toffee, a little bright butterscotch and a mellow nutty character. Some vanilla is present as well. There's also some bright honey notes, this is surprisingly floral.
The palate however, disappoints. It feels like it isn't particularly well-knit. While there's a moderate sweetness with a blend of toffee, maple and honey with plenty of caramel, it doesn't harmoniously incorporate the fruit character. There's also a surprisingly assertive hop character with an earthy bitterness that lingers in a way that works well with the sweetness. The mid-palate could definitely use a little bit more. The alcohol is exceptionally well hidden, I wouldn't guess that this is 11+%. Medium-full in body with a soft, creamy carbonation, this beer has an enjoyable finish. Solid stuff.
**Edit 01 March 2013**
From Norms. Bottled 01 Feb 2008, this is 5 years old.
The nose is still surprisingly brash and hoppy, with toffee, earth, a little minty alcohol. Surprisingly thin, but quite nice despite the fact. The palate opens with a punchy bitterness, a mildly butterscotch-like oxidation, toffee, a mild floral flavor as well, a little rose-like. Bitter on the finish, thankfully without any oxidized hop character. Initially over-carbed, once this has a chance to settle down, it improves hugely. Very, very solid.

Appearance This one poured a beautiful, rich orange in color and was a little hazy and mysterious. The story here though was the head. Most Barley Wines, especially the big ABV ones, have little to no head, yet this one was big and full.
Smell Big, sharp fruits own this nose. This is almost like a Lambic. Theres a deep, rich cherry aroma along with some cranberries and some lighter fruits. Yes, theres booze in there, but I didnt get the big honey that other BAs were raving about.
Taste Wow! This is very strong. The alcohol comes on here like a vodka martini with a dash of Applejack.
Mouthfeel The alcohol sting is sharp in the mouth and throat. This is not a full-bodied ale, though. Its more medium but well-blended.
Drinkability You wont be guzzling this at a frat party, thats for sure. New Orleans would be proud of this Barley Wine.
Comments Thanks to OFS for this heavy hitter. Ka-pow! This will close the night for sure.

2004 Bottling: Orange/gold with a low/decent beige head and a low amount of carbonation which leaves some sticky lace. Primarily a malt aroma with just a bit of hop character at first -- gone quickly. Very malty fairly sweet with a little hoppiness but not balanced poorly. Full bodied rich and smooth with a big alcohol warming sensation.
Alcohol was very rough when very fresh...
1999 Bottling: Bronze, low ringed head, and low carbonation. All malt aroma and flavor; not overly bitter. Alcohol seems to have mellowed but not incrementally better overall.

12oz bottle courtesy of CrellMoset, 2007 vintage I believe.
Pours a hazy orangish amber, lighter than I was expecting, with a small bubbly head with lots of bubbles streaming to the top. It looks a little fizzy.
The aroma is sweet with lots of light sugary smalls with some toffee and caramel as well. It's definitely got a doughy character in the nose as well as hints of hops remaining after 2 years.
The taste is sugary sweet, just like the smell. There is plenty of caramelized sugar and dark fruits. There is an overall boozy character to the taste and it leaves a sweet, tingly burn going down. There is definitely some citrus hops left in this one, despite the age.
The mouthfeel is very slick with low carbonation and medium bodied overall.
This is a very good beer, but it's a little thin on the flavor and not quite complex enough to be an elite barleywine. Either way, it's very tasty and big thanks to Chris for the opportunity.

This one is a dark red/chestnut colour with a small off-white head that dies quickly. The aroma is sweet with some nice malts in there and a bit of booze. There is also a nice hoppiness in the aroma is well. The hoppiness leans towards the herbal side of things. The taste is very sweet with the sweet malts up front. The middle is quite boozy and the finish is very grassy and hoppy. The mouthfeel is syrupy thick and the drinkability is very good for a barleywine.

Presentation: 12 ounce brown glass bottle with a label that has the words Dominion Millennium Specialty Ale set against a mix of colors including warm reds, oranges and golds. Listed at 11.4% and has a Bottling Date of Feb19 2004.
Appearance: The warm shades on the label are warranted and reflect perfectly the gorgeous color that this brew exhibits. A dark orange amber with some red sunset glows and a flashing aged copper look. Pellucid, there are certainly no streamers in this one. The initial pour creates a great looking off-white head that sadly soon fizzes and dissipates revealing only a thin cream colored halo sliver around the edge of my McEwans Scotch Glass. Only the merest
Nose: Sweet nose, the dark Virginia honey really comes through in the nose. A delicate alcoholic hint of dark fruits fills the top of the Glass, but it is so heavy it needs to be extracted with deep nasal inhalations.
Taste: As I expected, at 11.4%, this Barleywine has a sweet malt kick at first with a splash of floral perfume, but there is some warm fruit in there, its light but it takes the edge off of the high gravity sweetness. The alcohol is always here, there and everywhere then the fruits build in the warming malty middle .then the hops comes through, yeah .this brew uses a mixture of Mount Hood, Perle and Liberty in the boil, with English Kent Goldings for dry-hopping .the hops, even in this young 6-month old sample, are the perfect finish, lingering and tingling on the tongue they are extrapolated by the sweet malty alcohols to great effect. Age will certainly improve this one.
Mouthfeel: Above average feel, bold alcohols, sweet honey, solid malts and tingling prickly hops in the looorrrrng finish.
Drinkability: First beer of the night for me, its a real sipper, but damn if the lovely yet restrained hop bite doesnt beg you to keep some molecules of this barleywine on your tongue.
Overall: This could well start and finish the night, but that would be no bad thing. A big Barleywine with a lovely hop laden latter third and finish. This one will age for sure.
Thanks to AleOha for the sample, much appreciated!

12oz bottle, bottled 1/28/11, into a Duvel tulip. Thanks to Hopstoopid120 for tossing this one my way.
A: Pours a clear, striking deep copper body underneath a solid finger of fine, creamy tan head. Good retention, excellent lace. Gorgeous Barleywine.
S: Rich, round aroma of toasty caramel malt, raisins, and apricots. A bit of mustiness in the background. Excellent.
T: Follows the nose, with a great mix of sweet caramel and rich candied fruits up front, followed by some spicy booze and light mustiness on the bittersweet finish. Really nice.
M: Frothy, creamy medium body. A bit too bubbly for the style, but quite enjoyable all the same.
O: This one thoroughly surpassed my expectations, being nothing but delicious and showing a really elegant aged character after only a little over a year. I don't know much more it could improve, though, as I'm afraid any further mellowing of the alcohol would be more than offset by an unpleasant increase in mustiness - which is already at about the maximum allowable level. At any rate, it's drinking splendidly right now, and was a really impressive Barleywine. Thanks again, Tony!

Bottling date of 2-11-2005 is printed on the label.
The thin white head comprised of tiny bubbles quickly dissipates, with only a ring around the glass remaining. The color of the ale is a reddish medium amber.
The first smell I pick up on is the malty fruitiness. There is also quite a dose of ethanol present, but not to the extent of being very sharp and detracting from the smell. The hops are kept to a reasonable level, allowing plenty of the malt characteristic to show, and smell wonderfully floral. The sweet, dark fruity notes of the malt and honey are pleasant...though the honey characteristic is somewhat hard differentiate.
Carbonation is medium and the body is medium to moderately heavy.
The first flavors that hit me are subdued maltiness and an alcoholic spikiness. The hop bitterness then becomes evident...and the ethanol presence grows, especially after the swallow. After the effects of the hops quickly subside, a sweet maltiness (and maybe a little honey character) is left behind along with some ethanol fumes. There is alot of alcohol present on the tongue, especially as the brew warms...but this beer is pretty fresh and I will let my other bottle mellow in the cellar for awhile. I would've given a higher score for taste if it wasn't for the pervasiveness of the alchohol.
11-05-06: The ethanol presence has mellowed, and some candied, liquor soaked fruit aromas (pineapple) have come out in the nose. It seems also that the flavors have melded together really well. One of the better cellaring experiences I've had.
04-06-09: bottle dated 2/01/08, purchased from Bon Vivant in Smithfield, VA, brought a couple scores - appearance and mouthfeel - down, but it's still a mighty fine beer overall, hazy orange amber in color with a nose and flavor of thick moderately caramelized malts and lovely honey candies, honeyed biscuits, really digging the nose as it's a touch unrefined and "backwoods" and brings out the best of the aforementioned characters, sugary baked goods, lightly hopped, good booze levels, very enjoyable and I'd buy a sixer given the change and right price

12 oz bottle that looks a lot thinner than I expected. Light orange color and it is quite cloudy. Nice aroma, candy and malts. Taste is watery barleywine, bitterness but no hint of the alcohol. This is decent but its just a tad thin for me. I'm always up for trying a new barleywine.

Poured a dark copper body with a creamy tan head and sheath lacing down the glass. A thick malt ad yeast-like smell with some dark fruit in there. Medium-bodied yet smooth and creamy, definite caramel and toffee malts, as well as bread, roasted and some oakiness. This leads to a balanced beer that has a dry taste but finishes more smooth. Has fruits like apple and pear poking at the side but they seemed subdued, especially for a barleywine. The ABV is really hidden here and I could see myself mistakenly sessioning this. Definitely worth a try even if you're not a barleywine fan.

Thanks to beandip for shipping me two bottles of this ale; tonight I dine on the survivor. My wife says she really enjoyed the first one. My first sip of Old Dominion.
Pours a clear, fruity, filtered form of red with plenty of high-octane carbonation. Oddly, the smell out of the bottle is very enticing, but once I settle down at the table, all that's left is a bit of malt sweetness & echo of ruddy fall fruits. Hmmm.
Millennium Ale brings the .357 full of caramel to the drive-by, whack! More caramel than a bucket full of scattered Halloween candy, which brings in the subsequent dark fruits...this tastes like a caramel apple bobbed out of a tub of gin alcohol. Alcohol, malts, combine for the next layer of punch, & even further down, there's a shot of mild hop bitterness to round things out. Despite the heavily advertised alcohol presence, scarily drinkable. I've already sucked down too much writing this review.
My wife was correct, as usual, this is a very good brew, tight-roping along near excellent. Hands-down the most drinkable straight-up English Barleywine I've ever. Downright dangerous. And now I'm really looking forward to the single bottle of the oaked version I just rec'd.

This beer pours an amber color with brown tints. The head is one inch in height, and recedes rather quickly into thin lacing the way a good barleywine does. The aroma is of caramel, oak, and dark fruit. The taste is oak, and molasses with a fruity finish. There is also a hot alcohol presents up front. The mouthfeel is medium bodied, which seems a bit on the lighter side for a barleywine. Overall, this is a nice beer that is easily enjoyable. However, there are better barleywines out there.

Draught from a 5-year old keg. Pours a cloudy brown with a small white head. Aroma is very sweet---vanilla, oak, alcohol, and sweet sweet sweet malt. Flavor is the same--lots of vanilla, alcohol, and sweet super sweet malt. Oh yeah, it was sweet. Too much for me. To the rater below me: no the alcohol does not tone down with age. Blech. This was a disappointment.

This poured a slightly hazy copper with a bit of white head. It smelled fairly tannic like orange hops, molasses malt, and alcohol. It tasted strongly of pine hops with some floral hops and caramel malt mixed in. It was slightly thick with a bit of carbonation, and had a very bitter lasting aftertaste with some alcohol warming. Overall this was a very strong beer, but its flavor was one-dimensional. It could have used more complexity or subtlety (oak barreling?) and a heavier body. I'd call this good but not great.

2010 vintage - well rounded for such a fresh barleywine. Caramel sweetness up front, with a boozy punch in the middle - the alcohol needs a bit more time to mellow out it seems. Sweetness fades toward the end, with a firm bittering and a touch of astringency. Should improve with a year under its belt.

A sample bottled 05MAR02, it poured a copper color, perhaps with a touch of bronze, and a tad cloudy with the yeast poured in. Had a creamy, fine, tight, lasting head, with OK lace... Nose was somewhat malty, some hops showing up, but mostly with toffee-like overtones! Real good body, and quite smooth when passing over the tongue. Good body and tongue...? Sorry... Flavors were pronounced and well-balanced; rich, malty, caramel-like start, and some sweetness, due to the honey? Pretty strong hop presence, and a touch of grapefruit rearing it's head in a good, long-lasting finish. A warming feeling comes about in the back of the throat, not entirely unwelcome!! Tasty offering!! Thanks, Murph!!

12 oz bottle, bottling date of Feb 11 2005 stamped on the label, as well as a blurb about the ingredients: English malt, dark Virginia honey, Mount Hood, Perle, and Liberty hops in the boil, dry hopped with Kent-Goldings.
Served slightly chilled into a tulip glass, the body is a cloudy copper amber with a short, one centimeter head that is offwhite to beige in color. No lacing.
Aroma features fresh caramel apples and honey drenched pears.
Mouthfeel reveals a solid medium body, with some chewy caramel malt, and restrained carbonation.
Taste is malty in the English style, with loads of caramel apple, spicy hops, a mild alcohol zing, and some honey. A hint of molasses is in the background. Maltiness is more assertive at room temperature, for a fine middle, and the finish has pear and red apple fruitiness with a long and dry bitter hops aftertaste.
Very well made and evenly balanced. A very pleasant sipper that does an excellent job of masking the high abv. Another fine offering from Old Dominion.

This bad boy bottled on 11/20/06 well aged and ready for quaffing. And Im just the guy for the job.
Clear amber oak with a sticky thin ring of ivory lace. Not bad for a 10 plus booze brew.
Typical sweet caramel barley wine aroma, quaff is a bit on the sweet side too needs a bit more hop for balance. Bit of a bite on the finish not distracting enough to downgrade the beer quaffing enjoyment.
Its strong, and the booze leaks through, but not enough to diminish the overall beer experience.

Poured from a 12 ounce bottle into an Augustijn goblet.
A: Dark, dark red; ruby in the light. A thick, good-looking head. Insanely heavy lacing.
S: A deep nose. Significant malts briefly hide the other scents -- pungent hops, sour beeriness, and herbs. Good smell.
T: Chewy. A nicely-balanced hoppy body with a curiously absent aftertaste. The maintaste is thick, herbally bitter, round, balanced and smooth (aside from clinging soapy hops). Hints of honey. Nice.
M: Good, oddly (but pleasantly) creamy, and solid.
D: The 10.5% (which is what my bottle reads) is no surprise, and the beer is supremely sippable. As barleywines go, very good! Recommended.

Huge thanks to csmiley for this treat!
Bottled on April 3, 2006
Dominion Millennium pours a dark copper color. It's quite hazy, and has strong crimson highlights when held to light. The down side is that there isn't a head. Just a few light bubbles rise to the top, but disappear with haste. Lacing was extremely faint and light. Eh. The color's nice.
The nose is quite good. Caramel and brown sugar notes are very prominent. The malt base is undoubtedly substantial. It has a blend of fruit scents that's quite nice. I'm getting a little apple, pear, and perhaps even a bit of orange. There's a light twist of dark fruit that's a nice touch. There are some light herbal scents on the tail, mostly tobacco and leather. Alcohol is blended extremely well. Barely noticeable.
The flavor is good. I'm actually waffling on the score. It kicks off with a nice mix of caramel and toffee. A little brown sugar is noted, but it's somewhat subtle. The diverse array of fruit flavors is nothing short of very impressive. It's a wonderful mix of orange, apple, pear, with a little punch of raisin and plum. As was expected, there's nothing going on in the hop department. Leather and tobacco add quality depth and complement the other flavors extremely well. Alcohol is noted, but is surprisingly tame for 11%+ abv. Finishes with sweet caramel and a tangy dark fruit flavor. I've made up my mind...this is excellent!
Millennium has a medium body that's thinner than expected. The light, soft bubbles almost give it a smooth feel, but it needs more body. Drinkability is good for such a big beer. It's damn tasty, and goes down easy. Yeah, it's strong, but is very seductive.
Dominion Millennium Ale is an impressive English Barleywine. This bottle is approaching five years old and is very refined. I haven't had it fresh so I can't say from experience. But, the flavors are very well integrated, in addition to the alcohol. I'm still not sure I buy that this is 11%+. It's not perfect. More body would really be a good thing, as well as a bump in aromatics. Oh yeah...no head at all??? Nevertheless, this is one tasty English Barleywine. Find a bottle. Thanks a ton, Chris!

National historical relics No. 223
San 10, Ami-ri, Misan-myeon, Yeoncheon-gun, Gyeonggi-do
Sunguijeon is a shrine where the mortuary tablets of kings including
Wanggeun, the fonder of Goryo and loyal subjects are enshrined.
It is located at the end of Mt. Ami, Ami-ri, Yeoncheon-gun, Gyeonggi-do
with looking down Imjin Riv. , which holds numerous stories for
a long time. It enshrines mortuary tablets of kings including Hyeonjong,
Munjong, Wonjong headed by the founder of Goryo and 16 meritorious
subjects of Goryo(SeoHee, GangGamchan, YunGwan, KimBusik, JeongMongju
It was founded in the site of Angamsa, the wishing temple of
Wanggeun, the founder in Taejo 6 years(1397), and in the reign of
Jeongjong, the service for 8 kings including Taejo, Hyejong, Seongjong,
Hyeonjong, Munjong, Wonjong, King Chungryeol and King Gongmin was
performed. When the reign of the 5th Munjong came, it was called
Sunguijeon, and it was considered as inappropriate to enshrine 8
kinds on the grave of Goryo dynasty because Joseon ancestral shrine
of the royal family enshrines 5 kings, so only 4 kings including
the founder became to be enshrined, and sacrificial rite for 16
meritorious subjects of Goryo was performed together. The first
building was entirely destroyed by fire because of Korean War in
1950, and from 1972 ~1973, it was reconstructed as current scale,
on Dec. 28th in 1971, it was designated as national historical relics
No. 223.

Detroit automaker Ford is turning to out-of-circulation US paper currency as a possible material for use in its cars and another way of incorporating recycled materials. It sees potential in the shredded notes, believing that they could easily be used to create plastics for the car's interior such as bins and cupholders. It's an abundant source of material, too, as an estimated 8,000 to 10,000 pounds of notes are shredded every day. With the high price of oil, it's hardly surprising that alternative methods to produce plastic are attractive to the firm.
Dollar bills aren't the only material that show promise, though — the company is looking into dandelions as an alternative to synthetic rubber, coconuts as a reinforcement for molded plastic, and corn and sugar cane as another raw material to create a biodegradable alternative to plastic. The materials would join a number of other reclaimed and eco-friendly options already in use, like soybeans, kenaf, recycled plastic bottles, tyres, and even old pairs of jeans in an effort to reduce oil consumption and make Ford's cars and trucks more sustainable. However, there's no word on when these new materials might make it into cars.

A man called the fire brigade after overrunning a bath.
Firefighters from Woodside station were called at about midnight last night to reports of flooding at a family home in Davidson Road, Addiscombe.
They found a man in his 20s, who lived with his parents, had turned on the bath taps and forgotten about them.
The fire crew switched off the electrics but no damage was done to the house.
Firefighter Jim Parrish said: "I think the son had just run a bath and forgotten about it.
"It was a bit silly really. They probably could have just mopped it up themselves."

Tragedy strikes in her path leaving her to fight the biggest fight to stay alive. Agent Michael Lang is on the case and is questioning weather not Katy Harris is the murderer and covering up the crime with her knowledge of forensic science. Or if she's heading into the path of a serial killer. Find out in this thriller Hidden in the Midst of Darkness will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end.
The year was 1939 when a small community near Augusta, Georgia first heard TC utter the riveting phrase, "Keep your elbows resting on the needle." TC, a lumberjack and a rich timber baron made a pack. They had stepped across each others' shadows since young boys – one being of enormous wealth the other having a perfect aim and strength for felling 60' pines and cypress trees. Amidst civil strife, TC convinced a small contingency of friends to follow him deep into the forest across the rugged Acorn Trail to grow their own dreams. On an early morning in May 1945 ten covered wagons had reached the Acorn trail. Having been separated by politics, religion, race and the volatile mixture of love and revenge, few could ever return as the road home was splattered with the blood and ill deeds many had left behind. Forty-five years later, they would take an accounting. Some would call them cowards who high-tailed it. They would offer to drain two manmade lakes – slowly. There was Meeliah, an island girl left along while Clay Albert tended to the lives of a rich Philadelphia family and she knew how to bake a pineapple sweet potato pie that could arouse … and her jungle sting was severe. Her punishment would be unending; Clay Albert was determined to break her. One day they could not coax her out of the lake. One Sunday three brides-to-be would go off in a huff looking for adventure, a thing called hatching. They came upon a black family. Their intent was to enjoy some freshly churned ice cream and place ribbons in the pretty little girls' hair. But three days later, one of the teenage boys would be bludgeoned to death. Was it something they did, said, or wrote? Would Barbara Lynn, a bride-to-be, get to live in the cottage behind the plantation house where slave graves were recently discovered? Did Tim really love her or was he after her blood line. He'd proclaimed, "There are no brown spots about me; I am White from tick to tock and my eyes …" Really? While one community dismantled and escaped into the forest, another one a state away vowed to leave a forest in Dorchester County, South Carolina, beat their tools into cleats and create the greatest civilization of modern times one that would one day leave the gravity of the earth and float among the stars. They had promised their mother a homeland. But first they would tenderly assault unjust social and political structures. Some pressed into their minds that it would take 100 years, but more than one retorted, "We're going to do it in one generation." The year is 2012 and counting to 2033 from 1933; a 100 years. Although Thelma claimed to be the mother of more children than any woman known hardly six could be counted at any one time; they having gone on to the other side she said. She'd referred to them as her glories, her carrots. Were they fathom? With little to go on but the suspicious tone of a business attorney and some missing birth certificates, the author recreates this lost civilization in, "The Dark Circle – The Search for the lost children of the Mud." The tenderness and love between Miles and Thelma Dunston are captured as the, "The Slave Girl and the Jew." Five overlapping stories tell of their courage and toils of rebirth of these families and the triumph of the human spirit.
Set in the hills above San Diego, California, Rancho de Oro is established by Don Luis Estoban in the early 1800's. His wish is to keep his holdings prosperous for future generations. Great wealth is quickly established and in the 1950's Arturo Estoban marries a San Francisco Socialite. They happily have three sons, Juan, Gustavo, and Ricardo, to carry on the Estoban name. The middle son, Gustavo, grows up with a destructive, bullying attitude and carnal desires. His greed and lust affects every family member and as the story unravels murder raises its head not once, but several times. Oddly, everyone in the family has alibis regarding the murders, yet someone is out for revenge. As family members continue to die, the unsolved cases at the police department keep collecting.

5-hour ENERGY Yummification
August 20, 2014
Samantha and I entered the 5-hour ENERGY Yummifcation contest! The contest ended yesterday August 19th at 11:59PM EDT but winners will not be contacted until around September 2, 2014. The beverage we created is called "Secret Serum" and can be concocted simply by combining 1 bottle of 5-hour ENERGY Extra Strength Grape with 16 ounces of water. It tastes like a light fruity sports drink. We built the entire set from scratch by ourselves in my living room. Script, storyboard, acting, filming, lighting, costume design, sound, editing, and anything else you can think of was done soley by Samantha and myself. Once again, another completely Cate and Sam DIY artistic adventure executed as professionally as possible by "unlicensed professionals." $100,000 will be divvied up amongst selected finalists by 5-hour ENERGY, and we are hoping to win some cash to help fund our cost of living and creative endeavors so we can keep bringing you the best of the best.
The contest requires each video be uploaded directly to their site and shared via their provided email, Twitter, and Facebook links. Below I embedded a Facebook post I made earlier today that has a direct play button to watch our video directly and easily here.

ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, Accepted
August 13, 2014
The Ice Bucket or Donate in 24hours challenge is sweeping the nation by storm in an effort to both raise awareness and funds for further ALS research to find a cure. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is most commonly known as Lou Gehrig's disease. My long time teenage bestie Jenna Romano, currently in residing in Israel, nominated me. I accepted the challenge and I hope you do as well. Remember, if nominated, you must either "ice bucket" yourself and post video via social networks (Facebook, YouTube, etc.) or donate money to ALS within 24hours. P.S. I pretty much flooded my living room, but it was worth it.
Donations can be made at ALSA.org

Q What causes dark undereye circles, and can anything be done about them?
A The usual suspects—sun damage, age, and genetics—can cause them, but there's also a lesser-known culprit: inflammation, says dermatologist Nelson Lee Novick, of Mount Sinai Medical Center in New York City. Inflammation from allergies, a lack of sleep, or eye-rubbing can cause undereye blood vessels to become dilated or clogged. Also, age can thin undereye skin, making underlying blood vessels more visible; sun can darken skin; and genetics can make you more predisposed to it all.
As usual, prevention is the best medicine. Get plenty of sleep, and elevate your head with two pillows. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (UVB rays can darken circles), and sunglasses that filter both UVA and UVB.
But if these strategies don't help, you do have options other than a good concealer. New studies have shown that a topical therapy combining vitamin K with retinol can help. "After 16 weeks, a computer measured 70 percent reduction in subjects' undereye discoloration," says dermatologist Mel Elson of Burns, Tennessee, who has studied the vitamin combo. Products that contain sufficient amounts of the vitamins, he says, include Vita-Cap Dark Circle Eye Serum from Esteem by Naomi Judd, and Lumineyes by Mary Kay.

Independent directors in India have had a heck of a time in the past 18 months.
First, Satyam Computer Service Ltd. exposed them to potential liability for failing to catch B. Ramalinga Raju's falsification of accounts. The Satyam scandal prompted serious soul-searching in India's board rooms and prompted the departure of hundreds of independent directors who decided the rewards weren't worth the risks.
Now, there is the Bhopal district court's verdict holding seven Indian officials criminally responsible for the 1984 tragedy, including Khuseb Mahindra, who was a non-executive chairman of Union Carbide India Ltd., the company that owned the plant at the time. Read More »
