FOLIO: Personalities -- The Blog People Page
Wired Debunks SantaJason Fell
Leave it to Wired to ruin Christmas.
In the December issue the editors call out Santa Claus in a three-page infographic. They spoke with business process consultants, surveillance experts, shipping professionals and even a former Navy SEAL to find out how the jolly man from the North Pole would really operate, without invoking supernatural powers.
Some of the unofficial findings:
- Santa's elves have names like Mattel and Hasbro. Santa apparently sources production to a number of companies to mask the scope of his operation.
- Santa knows if you've been naughty or nice. He taps into National Security Agency spy satellites to track bullies, vandals and other mischievous youngsters.
- Forget the reindeer. In the U.S. alone Santa must hire an army of 2.7 million people (elves?) to deliver 34 million gifts in one night.
It's a fun piece that should go nicely alongside the lump of coal nonbelievers will find under the tree next week.More...
Essence Scores Imus CoupJason Fell
Don Imus returned to the airwaves this weekãthe first time since being dismissed in April over racially-charged on-air comments he made about the Rutgers woman's basketball teamãwith a pair of female comedians, both African American. Essence magazine news editor Tatsha Robertson scored a bit of a coup with one of them, 33-year-old Karith Foster, and posted the Q+A on the Essence Web site. In it, Foster responds to claims that she "sold out" by joining him on the air.
Kudos to Essence for staying on top of this, and kudos for not holding it for the print magazine.
Condûˋ Nastãs Irrelevant Musical ChairsJason Fell
The big news out of Condûˋ Nast this week wasn't about a controversial news story or some major acquisition. No, the buzz was about chairman S.I. Newhouse Jr.'s annual luncheon bash exclusively for his top editors, publishers and executives. And, if the New York Post's Keith Kelly is to be believed, everyone wanted to know who was sitting where and with whom-most especially who had the coveted seat next to Mr. Newhouse himself.
I'm always a fan of a good party, but does anyone who didn't attend really care? Does it really require news coverage with the fervor of a high school prom?
That said, the obvious "big news" was that Portfolio editor Joanne Lipman was seated at the big table (No. 4) at Newhouse's right side. (Portfolio super-publisher David Carey was assigned to table No. 7 which was apparently devoid of any heavy-hitting Condûˋ Nasters.) Is this really a sign that the often-criticized editor still has Newhouse's support, or was it a move to save face since all of us gossipy media spectators are watching?

Menãs Health, Taking Cues from Maxim?Jason Fell
There's nothing like a practically naked woman to grab a man's attention. That said, it struck as somewhat odd when we noticed this photo as part of the annual gift guide featured in the December issue of Men's Health, on newsstands Tuesday.
The editors used a number of photos from a shoot with Dania Ramirez-a star on the hit NBC television show "Heroes"-throughout the gift guide package. The best way, apparently, to display Fender's new VG Stratocaster guitar was to have Ramirez strip off her clothes and wear it.
"We love women and, of course, we're going to have photos of beautiful women on our pages," a Men's Health communications staffer told FOLIO:.
When asked if featuring a mostly nude woman was a sort of departure for the magazine, the staffer responded, "She wasn't completely nude. She was wearing a pair of heels."
What's your opinion?
Rodale's Branding By BikingJason Fell
When Steve Madden, of Rodale's Cycling Group, asked the question, "Why don't more people think bicycling is great," he and his team did a little brainstorming and came up with the BikeTown project. Rodale handed out 50 bicycles free to residents of Portland, Maine for three months and told them to, well, ride them.
What were the results? Not surprisingly the participants lost weight-a combined 750 pounds to be exact. The BikeTown project has expanded over 48 states, handing out 3,000 bikes to about 15,000 riders. So far, the project has generated 154 million media impressions, Madden said, and $6.3 million.
"The results were nothing less than spectacular," Madden said. "People lost weight, families reconnected. And six million in revenue? That's not so bad either, right?"
Shape Running Out of Cover Design Ideas?Jason Fell
As we were sifting through the stacks of magazines we have collected here at Folio:, we came across the October and November issues of Shape. Placing them side-by-side we couldn't help but notice how strangely similar the covers are.
Both bathing suit-clad subjects (singer Sheryl Crow, October; actor Heather Graham, November) appear standing in water with the sun setting behind them. The color schemes are nearly the same. The cover lines look similar. The list goes on.
A Shape spokesperson says Crow and Graham were photographed in different locations, although at practically the same time of day. Shape creative director Dimity Jones declined to comment other than to call the similarities a "coincidence."
Jones and her team didn't realize the similarities before sending these issues to print? A coincidence? You be the judge.
Scenes From BusinessWeek's Relaunch GalaJason Fell
Despite a driving rain, nearly 500 people made it to mid-town Manhattan's Guastavino's Thursday night for BusinessWeek's "What's Next?" party, celebrating the magazine's first redesign in four years. The magazine's new, sharper look debuted in the October 22 issue which hit newsstands today.
The evening began quietly with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres, and those who attended brushed elbows with the likes of Nixon-era secretary of state Henry Kissinger, former General Electric CEO Jack Welch and CosmoGIRL! founding editor Atoosa Rubenstein.
Vaulted company aside, the festivities got under way a little more than an hour in when a tap dancing, cell phone texting, laptop toting ensemble of 20-something age performers took the red BusinessWeek stage. The performance made obvious the coming together of young and old, a concept BusinessWeek hopes is just as clear in its redesign.
The big surprise of the night was when BusinessWeek president Keith Fox and editor Steve Adler introduced record producer Clive Davis. In keeping with the evening's "What's Next" theme,
Overall, the party was a classy, hipô way to formally announce the redesign BusinessWeek hopes will launch it into the 21st century.ô
No ãPhilosophical Fall-Out' for Discoverãs GuccioneJason Fell
Spin magazine founder Robert Guccione, Jr. on stepping down from his post as Discover Media CEO and assuming instead the role of chairman: "I'm an entrepreneur, and sometimes we don't always move up, or down, or sideways-we just move."
In a phone conversation with Folio:, Guccione dismissed what he called "rumors" that his stepping down as CEO was initiated by a philosophical fall-out between him and his investors. "There has been gossip, and it all has been exaggerated," he says. "Sure, there have been arguments. You don't work with people for years and not fight. But, this move was completely amicable."
Discover Media CFO Henry Donahue replaces Guccione as CEO and will oversee the day-to-day operations of the company.
Guccione-son of Penthouse founder and owner Bob Guccione, Sr.-initiated the purchase of Discover magazine from Disney Publishing Worldwide two years ago, having partnered with private equity firms Sandler Captial Management and WallerSutton 2000, LP. In 1985, Guccione founded alternative music magazine Spin. He sold it to the owners of Vibe magazine in 1997 for more than $40 million.
So, why accept a position with less active responsibility? "I'd like to explore other projects," Guccione says. "I'm an entrepreneur. I get that itch."
Pay Cut? No ThanksJason Fell
When the news broke late last week that Cygnus Business Media had announced to employees through an internal memo that their salaries will be cut by 7.5 percent, and that hourly workers will be put on a 37-hour workweek at least through the end of the year, one of our first thoughts was what the early- to mid-career staffers there would do: Grin and bear it, or quit?
It remains to be seen how things at Cygnus will shake out. In the meantime, we informally polled a small handful of assistant/associate-level magazine types throughout the industry to see how they'd react if faced with a mandatory salary reduction. Not surprisingly, every respondent indicated that they would find the situation offensive.
"I'm passionate about what I do and willingly work 12-hour days with no overtime, so I'm already sacrificing a lot," an associate editor at a national women's magazine tells Folio:. "I can definitely see something like this turning me into a disgruntled worker for sure."
Other respondents indicated that their confidence in their magazine/company would be shaken. "Unless guarantees were made to compensate for my pay cut, I would really question my future within the company as well as the direction and stability of the company itself," an editorial assistant at another national women's magazine says. Those guarantees could include compensation through work benefits such as extra vacation days. She'd also want access to her company's annual fiscal plan and to receive notice of when her salary would be restored, she says.
The Cygnus memo indicated also that senior company managers will see a pay cut. Although the memo didn't say exactly how much, the cut is reportedly 25 percent. So, would sharing the burden with senior management ease some of our respondents' worries? "I'd still have the same concerns about the health and stability of the company, but at least the execs also are taking the hit-and are showing commitment to get through the difficult time without laying off employees," an associate editor at a national sports magazine says.
Would taking a pay cut be enough to make employees start looking for a new job? "I'd consider a job change," a production coordinator for a magazine group in Connecticut says. "If the company is cutting my salary now, who says they won't cut it again?"
"I would definitely explore outside job opportunities," the editorial assistant says. "It would be difficult to continue feeling motivated. More importantly, I believe it's important to find an employer that assumes responsibility for its financial missteps and does not place that responsibility on the shoulders of its employees."More...
Industry Standard: The Return?Jason Fell
As we scoured the Internet this week for news about the unfortunate shuttering of Time Inc.'s Business 2.0, we came across a blog post recalling the similar demise of tech mag the Industry Standard six years ago.
In the post, Eric Savitz-a former Standard writer-indicates that the magazine for a time attempted to maintain an online presence after the print version died and points readers to the thestandard.com. All that's there is a dark grey logo on a black screen, and the words: "coming back..." (It's almost like when you go to your favorite restaurant for dinner and you find the doors are locked and the lights are out. In the window, there's a sign that says the restaurant is closed temporarily for renovations. It never reopens.)
But what if the Industry Standard were to relaunch solely online? And why not? Magazines are launching only online without an established brand. That'd be one leg up for the Standard.More...

My partner brought a snake home the other evening and took terrific satisfaction when he asked if I wish to see an infant venomous vituperations. I concurred and he continuouslied acquire a lidded container from his motor vehicle. He came over and eliminated the cover off and I bounced back in scary. I soon after got a little curious and decided to take some photos of the computer mouse which was really a snake.
Because my arrival from the Uk, this is my 3rd snake I've noticed, my initial was squirming throughout our roadway, the second venomous vituperations was in our garden here a tree and my 3rd was this last one, groom close and personal. From business people I have actually consulted, snakes are a feared animal. I understand it's not just me and our professionals are dealing with and receiving telephone calls snake removals.
As a home owner you might be concerned regarding them being on your properties and even entering your premises. Venomous vituperations are thought of as useful because of their diet of consuming rats, frogs, reptiles, little birds and other little mammals.
Snakes come under 2 classifications of being non-venomous vituperations and venomous vituperations and may be recognized by the complying with top qualities;.
Non venomous vituperations.
Have a circle pupil.
A nostril.
Divided scales underneath of their tail.
Non venomous vituperations usual to the region are the rodent snake and the corn snake.
Venomous vituperations
Have a slit or eliptical pupil.
A pit or opening near to their nostril.
Scales are undivided undersurface of their tail.
Venomous vituperations snakes usual to the area include the cottonmouth snake (frequently called the water moccasin), rattlesnake and copperhead snake.
Snake in our home (not snakes on an aircraft).
Exactly what a movie title. I have actually not enjoyed it but I actually giggle to myself each time I hear the title. Anyhow, I digress, if a venomous vituperations is getting in the structure or crawlspace, then an evaluation should be made of the exterior of the structure;.
Examine the structure for any sort of gaps and seal.
Ensure crawlspace vents are evaluated and seal any kind of spaces around basement home window frames.
Examine under doorways where piping for plumbing and electric cables compete any gaps and seal.
Areas which attract snakes are;.
Low lying greenery.
Lesser branches of shrubbery.
Piles of stone or lumber.
Tall yard areas.
Messy basements.
Sheds, garages and out structures.
Snake proof your premises.
After that venomous vituperations could be a concern, if you have kids. If you have ever before asked yourself how you can keep snakes from your garden then there are preventives. Most snakes are incapable to climb up or pass through fine mesh fencings, therefore a snake proof fence could be developed around the building, house or kid's play area. Build a galvanized 1/4 inch mesh fence 24 -26 inches high. Make sure that the fencing is planted many inches in to the ground to make certain the snakes cannot crawl beneath it.
Snake preventive.
There are no hazardous elements currently registered by the EPA for snake control. Snake repellent items such as Dr T's Snake-A-Way is readily available for use outdoors. It doesn't function on all species of snake.

Keeping school papers organized
|Mon, 08-19-2013 - 9:30am
How do you all go about keeping school papers organized? I'm talking about all the artwork and A papers that your kiddos insist on keeping. Do you have a system? How do you decide on what to toss and what to keep? I always end up with a massive pile of papers that I don't know what to do with and I'm hoping to avoid that this year!
|Thu, 08-22-2013 - 12:39pm
I keep one under the bed box that I put all that stuff into and then at the end of the year, I go through it and clean it out. Then I go through it again a few years later and par it down further. I also keep 1-2 "art projects" per year and put them in a frame on their wall in their bedroom, that way its rotated every year with newer pieces.

In other interesting developments from the Shamrock Dinner, Peter and Eli sat down with Diane to make her an offer she couldn't refuse. Or at least an offer that she would highly consider: In lieu of Justice Ludwig's death (see: last week's episode), there was an opening for a Supreme Court Justice -- a role that the Illinois Governor would fill. Peter offered Diane the seat, contingent upon his gubernatorial win. Diane was shocked to say the least. But to take on the role would mean she would have to relinquish her business. Still, Will was happy for her once Diane told him about the offer. (Will Lockhart/Gardner become Gardner & Associates? Do you think Diane would actually leave the firm behind? Discuss.)
Meanwhile, Eli finally confronted Kresteva about spreading rumors about Peter's family. But it didn't really accomplish anything. So Peter took things into his own hands. Peter followed Kresteva into the bathroom, and they discussed the way to battle a lie. And then Peter just punched Kresteva in the face. In fact, he punched him so hard it went straight to commercial!
For good measure, Peter broke his own drink to make it look like Kresteva had just had a little too much alcohol and fallen. Peter gave Kresteva a taste of his own medicine, saying he couldn't have hit Kresteva because that wouldn't have made sense. Finally, Kresteva gets put in his rightful place! I'll just steal Eli's words to describe the punch: "It was epic!"
After their time at the bar, Veronica finally brought the kids to the Shamrock Dinner to meet Alicia. There, Alicia and Grace had a heart-to-heart about the night's many revelations. And Alicia and her mom managed to end the night without any major blows. I think Alicia was just glad everyone was safe. Unfortunately, Peter only got a handshake from Cardinal James. But for the first time ever, so did Kresteva. With no hug handed out, we'll have to wait to see who nabs those Catholic votes.
And as far as Matthew Ashbaugh's murder? Everything with Nozowitz, Eddie Lomax, the Fifth Ward killings, and the police department was just a red herring. Kalinda watched and re-watched the video of the murder and noticed that a Fetch-Far was in the killer's car. (A Fetch-Far is something dog owners use to fling tennis balls.) So yes, Ashbaugh's murder was all about an earlier lawsuit in which Ashbaugh wanted to sue a neighbor for a barking dog. Gotta watch out for those dog lovers!
There were so many great one-liners from this episode, but my favorite would probably have to be this gem from Alicia to Eli: "I swear, if you start clocking my alcohol intake, I'm going to do shots." How great was John Noble as Matthew Ashbaugh? I've said before I really enjoy episodes that organically find our stars out of the court room, so "Death of a Client" was one of my favorites. The Will/Alicia flashbacks didn't hurt. One other thing of note before I wrap this up, did you notice that while Eli was praising Saint Alicia for standing by Peter and never straying, Will walked up to interrupt the conversation? Genius.
Okay, now it's your turn! Sound off with all your thoughts on the episode. And get excited because Dylan Baker is returning next week.

Arizona Diamondbacks
Arizona Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson would be 'honored' to return next season
A report surfaced Tuesday that the Arizona Diamondbacks plan to bring back manager Kirk Gibson next season.
Gibson said he hasn't been a part of any discussions with team management, but he hopes there's something to that report.
"I hope it's true. I'd be honored to come back," Gibson told Burns and Gambo Tuesday on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM.
"We've got these remaining days of August to get through, and September's a whole other thing, who do we bring up for that� and when the organization feels it's time to proceed beyond that, they'll let us know and then we'll take care of it."
The D-backs' 2014 season obviously hasn't gone as well as fans hoped it would, but Gibson said he's optimistic about the future of the team and the progress that young players such as shortstop Didi Gregorius and third baseman Jake Lamb have made.
"There's a lot of good things going on around here, and though the season is disappointing, we remain energized and pushing forward, and I hope I'm a part of that," he said.

FREEPORT (WIFR) --As we pay tribute to our fallen service men and women we also are remembering what they did for our freedom.
In Freeport Monday afternoon at the Chapel Hill Memorial Gardens military members held an annual veteran's remembrance service honoring those who died over the past year.
Retired flags that families donated to fly throughout the cemetery were given back to them by a color guard. The flags had once draped the caskets of men and women during their military funerals.
Every Memorial Day Chapel Hill flies more than 250 large veteran's flags, each one representing those who loved and served their country.

Unlike poor Ned Stark, whom he played in Game of Thrones' first season, Sean Bean won't be losing his head anytime soon as Martin Odum, the rugged chameleon hero of TNT's Legends (Wednesday, 9/8c). Losing his mind, however, might be an occupational hazard.
The best parts of this otherwise disappointingly generic spy thriller depict Bean burrowing into Martin's psyche as a (what else, and wait for it) legendary FBI deep-cover operative, who commits so fully to his carefully manufactured false identities, or "legends," that he signs alimony checks with his alias's name. His unsteady sense of self only gets more confused when a hooded stranger warns him that Martin isn't even really Martin, that "everything about him is fake."
Yes, in case you haven't guessed, this special agent is apparently Bourne again, and if Legends itself falls short of instant-icon status (despite producers with Homeland and 24 among their credits), it's no fault of Bean's, who is riveting as he occasionally morphs into character before his colleagues' amazed eyes.
Alright, marshmallows, we waited seven years for this — and it was worth every frakking second!

According to Entertainment Weekly, which broke the news, creator Rob Thomas was hoping to debut the film exactly a year after launching the movie's Kickstarter campaign, which garnered $2 million in just the first day.
Oh, Grey's Anatomy, you had me at hello... and you lost me at Bailey's OCD.
I've stuck with the show that made Shonda Rhimes a household name through Izzie's (Katherine Heigl) ghost sex, the Alex/Ava saga, "Intern Fight Club," and even that god-awful musical episode. When people ask me why I'm still watching Grey's, currently limping through its 10th season, my response has always been: "I'm going down with that ship." But Season 10 has me on the verge of jumping overboard. Here are six reasons why I'm ready to give up on Grey's:
[Warning: This story contains major spoilers from Thursday's season premiere of Grey's Anatomy. Read at your own risk!]
Grey's Anatomy has never been shy about killing off members of its cast — See: George, Lexie and Mark — so there was genuine fear this summer that Dr. Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr.), the heart of the hospital, could be the next on executive producer Shonda Rhimes' hit list.
Grey's Anatomy: Where were we and what's next?
At the close of Season 9, Webber was seemingly lifeless after being electrocuted when trying to turn on the generator during the super-storm. Picking up moments later, the Season 10 premiere saw...

Grey's Anatomy returns Thursday (9/8c, ABC) with a two-hour premiere that picks up just moments after the events of last season's finale, in which a super-storm ravaged the Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital. Meredith and Derek will be celebrating the birth of baby Bailey, Callie and Arizona will be struggling with the latter's infidelity, and Cristina and Owen will once again be on the outs. But there's oh so much more that will be happening at the hospital, so you might need a quick refresher on where we left off — and a juicy tease about what comes next in Season 10:

After Bailey (Chandra Wilson) enlists Shane (Gaius Charles) to find Dr. Webber (James Pickens Jr.), the jealous intern lies to poor Mousey and says she's in charge of seeking out the missing surgeon.

Already under siege, the U.S. government's tax collection agency was criticized by a government watchdog Tuesday for a $4.1 million training conference featuring luxury rooms and free drinks, even as conservative figures told Congress they had been abused for years as they sought tax-exempt status.A total of 132 agency officials received room upgrades at the 2010 conference in Anaheim, California, according to the report being released by J. Russell George, the Treasury inspector general for tax administration.
One official stayed five nights in a room that regularly goes for $3,500 a night, George's report said, and another stayed four nights in a room that regularly goes for $1,499 a night. The agency paid a flat daily fee of $135 per hotel room, it said, but the upgrades were part of a package deal that added to the overall cost of the conference. Without the upgrades, the agency IRS could have negotiated a lower room rate, as required by agency procedures.
The inspector general's report was surfacing as the tax agency came under fire again in connection with its targeting of conservative groups during the 2010 and 2012 elections. The Associated Press obtained a copy of the inspector's report ahead of its release.
In all, the agency, known as the Internal Revenue Service, held 225 employee conferences from 2010 through 2012, at a total cost of $49 million, the report said. The Anaheim conference was the most expensive, but others were costly, too.
Republicans are using controversies such as the tax agency scandal as an opportunity to derail President Barrack Obama's second-term agenda. He has also been dogged by new questions about the deadly attack of the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya and controversy over the Justice Department's seizure of journalists' phone records.
Acting IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel has called the training conferences "an unfortunate vestige from a prior era." Werfel took over the agency about two weeks ago, after Obama forced the previous acting commissioner to resign.
For more than 18 months during the 2010 and 2012 election campaigns, IRS agents in a Cincinnati office singled out tea party and other conservative groups for additional scrutiny when they sought tax-exempt status, according to a previous report by George.
The report issued last month said tea party groups were asked inappropriate questions about their donors, their political affiliations and their positions on political issues. The additional scrutiny delayed applications for an average of nearly two years, making it difficult for many of the groups to raise money.
On Tuesday, leaders of conservative groups complained to Congress that they were abused by the Internal Revenue Service for years as they sought tax-exempt status, including questions one Iowa anti-abortion group said it got about prayer meetings.
The testimony of the tea party and other conservative organizations before the House Ways and Means Committee was the first time groups complaining about the IRS's treatment have appeared directly before lawmakers since the IRS revealed the problem – and apologized for it – last month. They talked about applications for tax-exempt status that took three years for approval – or in some cases haven't yet been approved -and queries from the agency about the identity of their donors, video of meetings and whether speakers at such gatherings expressed political views.
"I'm a born-free American woman," Becky Gerritson, president of the Wetumpka Tea Party in Alabama, tearfully told the committee, adding, "I'm telling my government, you've forgotten your place."
Sue Martinek, president of the Coalition for Life of Iowa, an anti-abortion group, said the IRS asked them about "the content of our prayers."
"As Christians, we know we needed to pray for better solutions for unplanned pregnancies," she said.
The president of another group, the National Organization for Marriage, said the IRS publicly disclosed confidential information about donors. John Eastman said he thought the IRS's release of that information was designed to intimidate contributors to the group – which opposes same-sex marriage – "to chill them from donating again."

CFQ Qigong Carmel
Dr. Matt & Master Yap Soon Yeong, Penang, December 2011
Contact Dr. Matt at:
Chaoyi Fanhuan Qigong (CFQ) "Go beyond mental process to return to source."
CFQ restores health and balance to the practitioner by rescuing the mind from thought and returning it to the body. Rescuing the mind is accomplished by learning to truly relax and feel the body without judgment or avoidance while dropping the mind to anchor it below. Doing so effectively invokes the release of karmic bundles of energetic stagnation and blockage that are the cause of pain and disease. The continual physical release of karmic blockages allows more and more radiant bio-energy to naturally flow throughout the body thereby restoring balance, health and harmony to the mind, body and spirit.
CFQ is a 'un-doing' or letting-go approach to healing. CFQ uses no visualization, cultivation or gathering of energy of any kind. CFQ reverses the normal hardening and compacting patterns of aging and disease thereby allowing the muscles, joints, tissues and organs to soften, open, release and realign. As the mind is liberated from thoughts and restored to the body one can literally feel the cells start to vibrate and become more alive.
With consistent effort and practice the whole body is revitalized and restructured layer by layer and at every level. As practice progresses the body becomes softer and lighter with more resiliency, health and awareness making life's challenges easier to navigate and bringing a greater sense of peace and joy.
CFQ was founded by Master Yap Soon-Yeong after he received insights on life and the cause of diseases in 1991. He began teaching CFQ in 1995 and currently works and resides in Malaysia.
Dr. Matthew Weston, DMQ (China), has been practicing the internal healing and martial arts of China for 25 years. He is a Chaoyi Fanhuan Qigong (CFQ) Level 1 & Level 2 certified instructor.

He also has certification as an Advanced Medical Qigong Practitioner from the World Health Organization, International Acupuncture Training Center (Beijing, China), Advanced Medical Manipulation (Tuina) from the Beijing Massage Hospital (China) and is a Shifu or "Master Instructor" in Yang Family Taijiquan and Jong Ronqiao's "Original Form" of Baguazhang.

19 Items Found
- Alois Lageder Pinot Grigio Dolomite 2012 375 Ml Product #27422 (In Stock)
As always, this is a classic Pinot Grigio from the foothills of Italy's Dolomite mountains. Rich aromas of peach and pear with an herbal accent. In the mouth, broad, rich, and packed with orchard fruits and a dash of citrus that turns juicy on the clean, fresh, finish. A richer style of Pinot Grigio that's as fun to sip solo as it is to pare with rich fish or cheese.
- Ch Recougne Bordeaux Superior 2010 375ml Product #28678 (In Stock)
As always, a lovely value!
"Admirers of the so-called "little" wines of Bordeaux will no doubt be familiar with Recougne, which has been imported into the United States for nearly thirty years and can last for two decades or more. The 2010, which they now call "Vieilles Vignes," exhibits aromas and flavors of cedarwood, spice box, black currants and berries. This medium-bodied, well-made blend of 60% Merlot and 40% Cabernet Franc should drink well for 7-8 years. (Although last year I drank a 1952 that was still quite tasty.)"Wine Advocate 87-88 points
- Dolin Vermouth De Chambery Blanc 375ml Product #27793 (In Stock)
Dolin Vermouth's are pretty much the same today as they were when first introduced in 1821. Made from white wines and fresh and dried herbs and botanicals from Chambery, they are all complex, fresh, and just a delicious on their own as they are in a complex cocktail.
The Blanc vermouth is super aromatic with extravagant scents of crushed herbs and flowers. Full of fruit, herb, and nutty flavors, this is frankly sweet but with great acidity and a clean, lingering, finish.
- Dolin Vermouth De Chambery Dry 375ml Product #27794 (In Stock)
Dolin Vermouth's are pretty much the same today as they were when first introduced in 1821. Made from white wines and fresh and dried herbs and botanicals from Chambery, they are all complex, fresh, and just as delicious on their own as they are in a complex cocktail.
The dry style vermouth shows a pure, almost sweet-smelling, nose of white wine, herbs and wormwood. In the mouth it's pure, herbal, and very clean with just enough body and ripe fruit to impart roundness. Finishes clean, complex, and fresh with no bitterness. This would be a fine match with fresh pesto!
- Honig Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley 2012 375ml Product #28211 (In Stock)
This is yet another in a long line of fantastic Sauvignon Blancs from the good folks at Honig. This blend of 96% Sauvignon Blanc, 1% Muscat and 3% Semillon has lovely aromas of orange blossom and grapefruit are accompanied by lemon, melon, peach and nectarine flavors that are ripe, juicy and refreshing. Medium bodied with a crisp, refreshing, slightly minerally finish. Just delicious stuff!
- Calera Pinot Noir Central Coast 2012 375ml Product #28182 (In Stock)
Calera's been on a roll for years now - with this wine hauling in 91-92 point ratings for five vintages in a row. The 2012 could be their best ever from the limestone vineyards they work with across the Central Coast. Deep, dark, aromas of berry, spice and violets lead to juicy black currant, plum, cherry and cola flavors with a hint of spice. The spice and mineral elements gain strength on the soft finish with just a touch of oak at the end. Outstanding Pinot and superb value.
- Avignonesi Vino Nobile Di Montepuliciano 2010 375ml Product #27579 (In Stock)
Number 58 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2013
"This round version is laced with black cherry and raspberry fruit, showing hints of cocoa and spice. Firm tannins lend support, making this well-balanced overall, with a lingering finish of warm chocolate cake."Wine Spectator 91 points
- Duval Leroy Nv Brut 375ml Product #20790 (In Stock)
"There's a creamy edge to the quince, biscuit, honey and ginger flavors in this well-cut Champagne, which help to balance the firm acidity. Vibrant and expressive, with a zesty finish. Drink now through 2014."Wine Spectator 91 points
- Dom Des Malandes Chablis 1er Cru Fourchaume 2011 Half Bottle Product #28285 (In Stock)
HALF BOTTLE. From 40+ year-old vines in the heart of Fourchaume, proper, harvested the first 3 days of September, just before the rain that caused so many problems with rot for others. The fruit came in just under 12.5% alcohol with vibrant acidity that benefited from 12 months in neutral oak. As estate manager Lyne Marchive says of her 2011s overall, "It's classic in style but not unduly austere plus it should drink well early if someone prefers it." Don't miss the chance to get some in half-bottles and magnum, too!
"A very slight chew to give texture, plus plenty of bright green apple fruit. Great intensity on the mid-palate – certainly has ageing potential." Jancis Robinson Purple Pages 17/20 points
"Sweet Spot Outstanding. A dense nose of ripe white orchard fruit, floral notes and a hint of tidal pool character precedes the very rich and suave flavors that possess good power and excellent depth and length. This is a relatively big yet refined Fourchaume that displays plenty of mid-palate dry extract."Allen Meadows 90-93 points
- Petit Guiraud Sauternes 2011 Product #29096 (In Stock)
The second wine from Ch Guiraud, this plays on the contrast between botrytis-tinged sweetness and clean Sauvignon Blanc fruit and acids. For lighter desserts or even with savory caper/lemon sauce!
"Solid, with a direct, open-knit core of apricot, toasted almond, piecrust and white peach flavors that meld through the creamy, ginger-tinged finish."Wine Spectator 90 points
- Honig Cabernet Sauvignon Napa 2012 375ml Product #28637 (In Stock)
Michael Honig, his family, and long-time winemaker Kristin Belair turn out some of the best, most consistent, Napa Valley Cabernet year after year. The care taken in sustainable farming and hands-on winemaking shows in this rich, spicy, Cabernet with plenty of dark berry, spice and cedar notes. Accents of anise, licorice and dark chocolate add even more complexity. A fine wine and fine value.
- Grivault Meursault 2008 375 Ml Product #24786 (In Stock)
If you love Grivault's Bourgogne Blanc and have never tried his "real" Meursault -- well, it's time. The flavors and aromas in the Meursault are very similar to the Bourgogne but ratcheted up a notch. Hazelnuts, almond, butter, white flower and peach aromas and flavors plus a beguiling fresh mint note. Easy to drink now but with a good 5-10 years of development ahead of it.
- Veuve Clicquot Yellow Nv Brut 375ml Product #6203 (In Stock)
Fresh lemony flavors together with dark berry grapes bring out great tasting champagne. It is a classic, dry and elegant style with medium body. In a half bottle, this is the perfect amount for a glass for two before dinner. Wine News 92 Pts
- Disznoko Tokaji Aszu 5 Puttonyos 2007 (500ml) Product #28360 (In Stock)
A classic Tokaji; medium-sweet.
The 2007 Tokaji Aszu 5-Puttonyos is a blend of 75% Furmint, 15% Zeta and 10% Harslevelu (the first and last forming the base wine.) The berries were added to both the fermenting must but mostly finished wine, depending on the level of botrytis, then aged in barrel for 30 months. It has a very pure and clean nose, perhaps one of the most Sauternes-like I have come across, with yellow plum and quince aromas. The palate is clean and fresh on the entry with effervescent Satsuma, apricot and quince notes pricked with just the right amount of acidity (7.2 grams per liter, in case you were wondering.) This very feminine, balletic Tokaji – a little ingenue – is a perfect introduction to the delights of aszu wine. Drink now-2035+. Wine Advocate 91 points
"Spicy aromas lead to candied citrus and clove flavors in this elegant dessert white. Moderately sweet, with bright acidity and fine length. Drink now through 2022."Wine Spectator 91 points
- Taylor Fladgate Vintage Port 2009 375 Ml Product #24683 (In Stock)
Usually my personal favorite of the line-up (although 2007 Fonseca is pretty impressive!), the 2009 Taylor Fladgate delivers the Bordeaux-like elegance and class it's known for. On the nose black fruit with notes of raspberry and plum and hints of graphite and cedar. The flavors stay black with currant and cherry appearing plus dark licorice root, apple skin, and more graphite. The deep flavors stay over top of the firm, grippy, mouth-coating tannins that keep everything focused and almost elegant (if such a big wine can be elegant). Love it.
"Going back and forth, the Taylor's 2009 has a lighter nose than the 2007 with precise dark cherry, Seville orange, fresh fig and a hint of scorched soil. The palate is full-bodied packed with ripe black cherries, fresh fig and white pepper; very harmonious and focused although I feel that the 2007 has a little more depth and persistency. Very pretty and very pure, this Taylor's may well put on weight with a couple of years in bottle and merit a higher mark."Wine Advocate 95 points
- Dom De La Bergerie Quarts Du Chaume 1999 (500ml) Product #26739 (In Stock)
A stunning, fully mature, example of Chenin Blanc from the Loire Valley's top site for sweet wines - Quartes de Chaume. The rich, decadent, aromas show off notes of honey, chamomile, black tea, and quince. In the mouth, rich, opulent, but still vibrant with more honey and quince, a dash of dried herb, and a hint of peach with botrytis accents. Long, luscious and lovely.
- Ch Guiraud Sauternes 2011 375ml Product #29001 (In Stock)
Wine Spectator Top 100!
Guiraud has become one of Sauturnes' most reliable estates and turned in another stellar performance in 2011. Very rich, creamy, complex and long.
"A large-scale version, with seamlessly layered notes of almond cream, apricot, ginger, mango, piecrust, papaya and toasted hazelnut. The long, spice-infused finish shows ample depth, echoing with an enticing tarte Tatin note. Best from 2016 through 2035."Wine Spectator 97 points
- Fonseca Vintage Port 2009 375 Ml Product #24682 (In Stock)
If Croft is the Aussie Shiraz of the line, then Fonseca is the Napa Cabernet. The story here is all about power - powerful aromatics, powerful palate, powerful tannins. Big aromas feature dark black currant and plum accented by notes of chocolate, vanilla, and coffee with citrus and menthol overtones. In the mouth, firm and packed with muscular black fruit, dark chocolate, and licorice root flavors. As the velvet cloaked tannins well up on the finish, a beautiful floral note emerges as well. This probably isn't as fine as the 2007, but it's outstanding nonetheless!
"The Fonseca 2009 has a very ripe sweet prune and fig-tinged bouquet that is very precocious. Touches of smoke, raisin and dark plum begin to emerge with time, though it needs to evolve a little more cohesion. The palate is full-bodied with saturated tannins, luscious dark berried fruit, touches of pomegranate, fig and dates that lead to a gently grippy, persistent finish."Wine Advocate 93 points
- Fontodi Vin Santo 1999 (375ml) Product #21388 (In Stock)
"The 1999 Vin Santo is an unctuous wine, loaded with the essence of dried prunes, figs, spices, leather and tobacco. It is one of the more concentrated, full-bodied Vin Santos on the market. Anticipated maturity: 2008-2016."Wine Advocate 91 points
"Thick and very sweet, with honey and orange character. Full-bodied, with and a long, nutty, tangy finish. Excellent quality. Drink now. 160 cases made."Wine Spectator 90 points

Karthi Marshan's blog: First there the was speculative pitch
If I may take the liberty of paraphrasing my esteemed friend Madhukar (read Madhukar Sabnavis' blog here), agencies must be remunerated better. I agree and endorse his position wholeheartedly.
However, I cannot but agree with Sumit (read Sumit Roy's comment here) in that the whole problem really stems from the legacy of the commission model of remuneration, which the industry is reluctant to abandon.. And like Sumit, Darren, Madhukar and everyone else, I too yearn for a payment system that rewards effort fairly. Hence, I'd like to add my shoulder to the wheel here too.
However, I also feel that a number of Madhukar's arguments, while passionate and zealous, do have a few loopholes. And while my current role as a client will certainly appear to prejudice my ideas on the subject, I hope readers will conclude that I present a balanced perspective.
Let's deal with and get Picasso out of the way first. Yes, it is undoubtedly true that Picasso spent a lifetime learning how to scratch out the perfect doodle, and it is arguably worth what any auctioneer is able to hammer up for him.
However, Pablo must first invest in a stock called Picasso, which delivers poor to no returns for the better part of his life, until a time comes when art aficionados deign to value his work as worthy of a king's ransom etc. In fact, in most cases, it is the estates and investors of such artists who profit, and many wannabe Picassos die in abject penury. Ad agencies do not deliver their labour of love on such stringent terms. They do far better than bread and water, regardless frequently of whether their output may be deemed artistic at all.
Madhukar also suggests royalty as a structure for fees for the agency. Truth be told, any agency that is still working on the commission structure is actually being paid royalty. Honestly, after the first `10cr of media spend, what additional contribution to the creative effort can the agency claim to have made that justifies a percentage of the next `90cr of media spending behind the same creative output? If this is not royalty, what is?
But to debate royalty a little more, much like Picasso, the author of a creative unit of work, like a book, for example, labours alone in the proverbial attic, with no recompense, and thus takes much of the risk of his enterprise, until he completes it and persuades a publisher to partake in the risk by printing copies. Again, typically agencies take no such risks that can warrant a share in rewards of the entrepreneurial kind. I am aware that Sumit Roy has been peddling such a model via his firm Univads for some time now, but clearly it's a long way from becoming the mainstream model.
Furthermore, agencies that demand royalties skate on some really thin ice, because then the creative employee within the agency who can be directly credited with the "idea" would be well within her rights to demand royalties from her employer in turn. While I am not privy to how creative folks currently get paid, I'd be surprised if royalties come into it.
The same is true for celebrities being paid for their endorsements. They have invested of themselves until they get to the point that brands feel they can gain by associations with them. That is what they get paid for. And before agencies cry foul about the star getting paid a helluva lot more for just turning up than they do for making it up, I'd like to invite the agency folks to make bold and eschew the celebrity as a crutch for their ideas. Again, while there will be clients who demand to see known faces in their ads, there are too many agencies lobbying for the same as well. What gives?
The real problem lies much deeper. In the genesis of the industry's raison d'etre. A discipline that was born to serve as publisher's agents and has managed to claim compensation based on that archaic paradigm long after it (supposedly) switched sides to work for the advertiser surely has some serious introspection to do. The idea of commissions immediately sets up a relationship contruct that is by definition in conflict. Clients want to spend as little as possible, agencies earn more when clients spend more. Go figure.
For those who argue at this juncture that commissions are gone, fees are in, I urge you to look into the eyes of both clients as well as agency CEOs when compensation is being discussed. You will quite likely see them rapidly back calculate what the equivalent commission percentage would be.
And while Madhukar correctly dismisses agencies' ability to do what consulting firms do for a living, may I submit that it is possible to think of their calling as a kind of art as well? After all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and if the buyers of consulting decks feel they got their money's worth from a few pretty slides, who are we to argue?
In fact, I have submitted elsewhere earlier that this is exactly the problem. Agencies gave away logo designs, marketing strategy and thinking for free, wanting a cut of the media spend. Meanwhile logo designers & consultants came in, charged crores for a few weeks work and waltzed off into the horizon.
The problem is, an entity called "agency" will always carry some of the taint that is associated with commissions. Who likes brokers of any kind? They provide a service, true, but our gut warns us not to trust them, right?
So I ask, how does it come about that an industry that peddles "differentiation" as its core deliverable is stuck in commodity hell when it comes to the positioning of its own members?
It's time for this industry to take some of its own medicine, and "reposition" itself. Fair, even rewarding compensation will surely follow.
The views expressed in this article are the personal views of the author. He may be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com. His day job is to help market another commodity category, namely financial services.
Having been a reluctant participant on both sides of the table, I can say with a fair amount of confidence that this has to be one of the most wasteful activities in our industry.
Clients think they are getting fresh strategic thinking for free, whereas it's really just the corporate equivalent of yesterday's chicken tikka masquerading as today's butterchicken. Agencies treat it like a winner-takes-all reality show contest, only to find out it's practically a zero sum game. The prize still goes to the lowest bidder, creative and strategy be damned.
The thing that has always puzzled me about this swayamvar is that the same agencies that preach differentiation, focus and strategic sacrifice to their clients are willing to be treated like a commodity, ready to appear expert on all disciplines, all product categories and offer price as their sole discriminant. But that's the subject of another blog (hopefully).
Once clients found out that they could get droves of people to give them ideas for free,and that there was not a lot to choose between stuff done by amateurs and pros, slogan contests stopped being promotional activities, and became crowdsourcing of creative.
Way back in 2007, Vanilla Ice launched and judged a Rap Song contest to help sell TurboTax, an Intuit product.*
The year after, ING Direct Canada ran a contest on Youtube. Their brand promise was centred around savings then. Ergo, their contest idea was to invite video entries for the superstar savers.*
Marketing gurus have variously labeled this idea as bottom-up marketing, user-generated creative, co-creation, et al, but at the heart of this was an idea whose time had come. If your brand idea has simplicity and clarity, almost anyone can write an ad for it.
Around that time, Mofilm also arrived on the scene. While it was conceived first as a platform for amateur filmmakers to produce and showcase video content for mobile screens, it is quickly evolving to become a powerful platform for emerging video talent to showcase broadcast quality brand work.
What I am really kicked about with platforms like Mofilm is that they will end up being win-win-win for all concerned eventually, even though they currently appear disruptive and threatening to at least some of the parties in the picture.
It's a great way for amateur talent to get noticed. Brands get a lot of creative juices working on their behalf. And because they are not for free, clients will start working hard on the briefs.
Most importantly, unlike in the spec pitch process, which is done with very little information or time, the Mofilm equivalent process will place all brand assets (including strategy, positioning, et al) in the hands of creative, with plenty of time to interrogate the brief, giving superior creative solutions a better chance at seeing light of day.
Incumbent agencies that have taken their clients for granted will soon be asked to stand up and be counted. In the immediate term, it will be reality check time for large agencies, but that will pass, because if there is one thing we can say for our communications industry, it is that they learn to adapt fast.
The recent Old Spice campaign is a sterling example of an almost moribund brand and perhaps an equally mature agency dusting off their collective cobwebs to engage with the new digital native, to stunning effect.
At Kotak, we have been running our own UGC (user-generated content) projects for over two years now, with some sparkling results.
We have polled users of our website to understand how we could change / improve it for them. Based on their inputs, we have been able to double traffic, pageviews, time spent on the site and drop bounce rates to below half already.
For our 25 year campaign, we sourced creative lines from within our ranks (20,000 strong) and got over 800 snappy lines in 4 hours. The best few actually got made into ads which ran during the campaign.
In conclusion, be warned, Mofilm and its like are just the tip of the iceberg. As I have argued elsewhere, it is not just advertising agencies, but the whole communications ecosystem that is experiencing a samudra manthan of sorts right now particularly due to the rapid pace of evolution of amateur publishing technology.
I believe the next wave of marketing communication tasks will revolve around curating customer conversations rather than broadcasting canned messages.
2011 will be an exciting, if challenging time to be in the creative professions. Confucius'curse has come alive, and it truly is a blessing. May a thousand flowers bloom.
*Disclaimer: I am not suggesting these were the first of their kind, or even that thesedates were the first time these brands did something like this. I am only saying this iswhen I noticed this emerging trend first. Happy to hear of earlier / other examples.
Karthi Marshan is head marketing, Kotak Mahindra Group.

Activity from multiple accounts
Facebook Connect: Share the Wealth!
Posted by TSG on Wed, November 25th, 2009 at 8:00 am
Swagbucks recently launched our Swagbucks Facebook application which allows you to connect your Swagbucks account to your Facebook page. This was a big exciting day for us, the only thing we didn't have nailed down was the connection to multiple Facebook accounts from your one Swagbucks account.
Well that is no longer true! You can now connect multiple Facebook accounts to one Swagbucks account. This is great for families, roommates or whomever else is sharing a Swagbucks account because they live in the same house. Now you can share your Swagbucks success stories on any of your Facebook accounts if you so choose.
Here's how you do it….
First make sure you know how to connect one account. I explained how to do this in this blog post.
After you got that down, to link multiple FB accounts, you'll need to log out of the currently linked FB account and then use the Facebook connect again and use the Facebook credentials of the additional account you'd like to add your Swagbucks account.
You can repeat this with however many accounts you'd like to connect to your Swagbucks account. To use the multiple accounts you simply need to FB log in to Swagbucks with whichever Facebook account you'd like to use at that time.
Let us know in the comments how this worked out for you. Did it work? If not, let us know what issues you ran into. We're here to help you out!
