Elegance and Value from Franciacorta
October 10, 2012 at 11:49 am 2 comments
There's a belief in some circles that the wines of Franciacorta are expensive. I'd like to introduce evidence to the contrary with the beautifully made, value-priced offerings from Ronco Calino.
Founded in 1996 by businessman Paolo Radici, Ronco Calino produces several style of Franciacorta, Italy's most famous metodo classico sparkling wine. Recently, Michael Skurnkik Wines of Syosset, NY, one of America's leading importers of Italian wines, started to sell these wines in the US; I tasted the three offerings they represent and was quite impressed.
The NV Brut is a blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Nero (note: these are two of the three varieties allowed in a Franciacorta sparkling wine, the other being Pinot Bianco). Aged for twenty-four months on its yeasts, this has a persistent perlage and aromas of Bosc pear, acacia blossoms and citrus fruit. Medium-bodied with good concentration, this has nice length in the mid-palate along with very good acidity and persistence. Nicely balanced, this is a clean, refreshing sparkling wine of very good complexity. This would be a nice aperitif or served as a starter for many meals; it's wonderful with vegetable risotto. ($30)
Even better is the 2011 Brut Satèn, a sparkling wine of lovely finesse, which is quite appropriate given that the term Satèn means "satin" or "silky." Regulations for a Satèn in Franciacorta allow only for white grapes; this is 100% Chardonnay, aged on its yeasts for 24 months. Light yellow with a creamy mousse, this offers lovely aromas of green tea, spearmint, lime and peony – how sensual! Medium-full, this has an elegant entry on the palate, very good acidity and notable persistence. This is a lovely Satèn with excellent varietal character and beautiful focus; this is quite flavorful and yet always manages to maintain a delicacy on the palate. Above all, this has impressive complexity, freshness and balance and is quite delicious. At $30, this is an excellent value and certainly the finest example of Satèn I have tasted at anywhere near this price. Enjoy this over the next two to three years; this is ideally paired with most seafood, especially tilapia, sole or sea bass.
Finally, the NV Rosé "Radijan" is, in my opinion, the best of these three sparkling wines from this classy producer. This is 100% Pinot Nero, something not seen very often, as many examples of Franciacorta Rosé have only 30% to 60% of this variety. Displaying a lovely bright copper color, the delicate aromas are quite pretty with notes of strawberry, pear and geranium. This also spent twenty-four months on its yeasts; medium-full, this has a delicate feel on the palate and in the finish. There is very good acidity, impressive persistence and excellent length in the finish; the complexity is first-rate, as is the varietal purity. Enjoy this over the next two to three years with duck breast, lighter poultry or pork. ($33)
I rate the NV Brut with a three-star (very good) rating, while both the Satèn and the Rosé are four-star (excellent) wines to my way of thinking. To have wines of this quality as well as complexity and overall harmony retailing for $30 and $33 a bottle? Well, certainly in this case, Franciacorta is not expensive. If you've been waiting to experience this celebrated sparkling wine, but never took the time to do so, here are three notable examples to get you started!

Very elegantly written review for some elegant wines. I have only recently tried Fanciacorta and I was absolutely delighted. The one I tried was crisp, with lime flavors, a hint of grass, and yet it was also smooth and satisfying. I wonder if more people knew about Franciacorta wines, would they become a more popular substitute for (often over-priced) Champagne? I'm particularly interested in the rosé you tried here. I once tried a fabulous Niagara sparkling rosé and your description here reminds me of that wine. I will certainly seek these out – for the prices, they sound like wonderful wines! Thanks for a nice post.

Shiocton Automotive along with Wades Pit Stop & Weslow Water Systems will sponsor the five weekly divisions of racing. Racing gets underway at 6 p.m. "Dancin" Lance Arneson did a waltz on his way to picking up his first feature win of the season in the Budweiser IMCA Modifieds. Brian Mullen is the point leader. Kyle Frederick did one better than Shawn Wagner for the second straight week picking up back to back wins in the IMCA Stockcars. Wagner still holds the point lead by one over Frederick. Rod Solem picked up his first win of the young season in the IMCA Northern Sportmods. Eric Arneson is the top gun right now by one point over Brad Theys. Matt Drawenek won his second straight Street Stock feature last Sunday. Dan Gracyalny and Jerry Winkler share the leader board in the point standings. The 4 Cylinder was not run because of curfew. The current point leader is Justin Vannieuwenhoven.

How to Select
How to select Track Lighting Install Supplies
Installing track lighting fixtures in a house may be a very complicated process for people who don't have all of the necessary equipment. The following guide will help you learn about what installation supplies you might need and how you should select them.
The type and amount of installation supplies that you need depends on the future location of the track lighting fixtures. One major difference between track lighting and other lighting options is their installation. Since these lights are mounted on all possible surfaces you will need to hide the wires under special track sections. Before you buy such sections, it is important that you calculate the area that they cover and pay attention to the diameter of the wires.
The next supplies that you might need during installation are outlet adapters. Such details will allow the cords to be hidden. If they aren't hidden, the overall view of the fixture would be ruined. That's the last thing that you want! To know what adapter to select, find out what the diameter of your cords and wires, and how many of them need to be hidden.
The lighting track connectors are also a very important part of any track lighting system. Such small details allow connecting various fixtures into one system, making the process of controlling it easier and faster. Again, find out what the diameters and types of the wires are before you order any connectors. The circuit connectors designed in "L", "T", and "H" and "X" shapes make the installation process much easier. With the help of such track lighting supplies you will be able to locate the fixtures in the way that you have planned.
If you need to install track lighting fixtures with low voltage applications, a pendant adapter is the perfect detail to help you complete this task. Ensure that the specifications of the supply comply with the line's requirements before you buy it.
If you are still not sure whether you need to install track lighting in your house or office, the following information might help you make the final decision.
What are the benefits of track lighting? The greatest benefit that you will be able to enjoy is their functionality and adjustability. You can install such fixtures everywhere you want. In addition to that, the light coming from the track lights can be adjusted to create an ambiance of your dreams.
How efficient is track lighting? When the lighting fixtures that you select are equipped with LED light bulbs, they offer durable and efficient performance. The money that you will spend on such fixtures will return in the first months of the lights' exploitation.

thing is, like opie kinda said, isn't it jax's fault? if he had let opie kill clay, he could've just told the club the truth, let em know feds were watchin and fled. jax's love for the club got them in this. him and clay being down with drugs and guns got em in this last season, when jax was ready to bounce after he got his money.
it's a fucked up situation, but the way these guys live, if it wasn't tig it woulda been someone else. they're reckless.

DHS Alternative Program helping students achieve success
Tuesday, January 8, 2013
Carver likes to say "It's like teaching someone to ski; if you reprimanded them every time they fell down they wouldn't ever really learn. What we try to do when they fall down is help them back up. We help them to determine what they were doing that maybe wasn't working and give them some pointers as to how they should try next time."
The administrators closed what had been a time-out room. Instead of shipping kids out they engage with them and try to find out what is going on. A student who needs to step out can check in with the guidance counselor, the special education case manager, or Carver himself. Ultimately the focus is to get the student back into classroom.
Students in the Alternative Program also have the opportunity to interact and build relationships with students at the high school, whether at lunch, in select classes, or by participating in extra-curricular activities, clubs and sports.

Destiny Online
Destiny Online Overview
Destiny Online is a 2D Fantasy MMORPG by EnjoyMMO. The graphics and gameplay in Destiny Online feels remarkably similar to other EnjoyMMO games. The game's most interesting feature is its in depth pet system. Players can capture practically any enemy in the game and customize their growth as they level up. The experience rate in game is fast paced, so players should be able to complete all of the newbie quests and have themselves nicely equipped within an hour or so after creating their character. The game's five playable classes are:
Warrior - Their key attributes are Strength and Vitality. They are the primary melee oriented character in Destiny Online and are capable of dealing large amounts of physical damage. They enjoy the highest HP in the game and high physical attack power.
Swordman - Their key attributes are Strength and Stamina. They are capable of dealing of dealing long-range physical attacks. They use long swords and other weapons which have a long reach. They are very similar to Warriors.
Mage - Their key attribute is Intelligence. They are the primary offensive spell casting class in Destiny Online. They have low HP but can devastating amounts of damage with their spells.
Taoist - Their key attributes are Intelligence and Spirit. They play a lot like mages, except their spells curse their opponents rather than lots of damage. They rely more on their pets than other classes.
Priest - Their key attribute is spirit. They are a supportive class capabable of both buffing their team mates as well as healing them.

Destiny Online Review
By, Omer Altay
Destiny Online is a 2D fantasy MMORPG published by EnjoyMMO with cute anime inspired graphics. In terms of core gameplay and graphics, Destiny Online is very similar to EnjoyMMOs other titles – Magic World Online and Phoenix Dynasty Online. EnjoyMMO actually launched Destiny Online back in 2008 as 'Legend of Golden Plume', the game was later renamed to 'Destiny Online' in early 2009. Unlike Magic World Online and Phoenix Dynasty Online, Destiny Onlime is aimed towards a younger audience, as the game's graphics are brightly themed and cute. Those looking for a game with better graphics, may want to skip this one, but everyone else can read on!
Starting Out in Carp Village
Upon first logging into Destiny Online, players must first create their character. The game has five playable classes – Warrior, Swordman, Mage, Taoist and Priest. The game's character customization options are limited to a handful of different hairstyles and colors, which is a bit disappointing. After actually entering the game, players will can either start grinding right away or start the 'New Comer' beginner quests; I strongly recommend completing all of the 'new comer' quests, as they're extremely easy and are quite rewarding. Quests usually involve talking to NPCs or killing monsters outside town. Even though there's no real innovation in this department, questing gives some great early game direction to the game.
Core Gameplay
The core gameplay in Destiny Online is rather simple. The experience rate in game is quite fast. Players gain four stat points every time they level. The skill system is a bit interesting, as players don't simply pick skills out of a skill tree like most games. Instead, players must talk with their trainers to improve their various class skills. Mages for example have various different schools of magic which must be trained by talking to a class mentor NPC . Training skills requires silver (the currency in game) as well as some of your own experience points. Whenever a school of magic reaches a certain milestone, your character will automatically learn new skills.
Master System
Before completing any kill quests, I strongly recommend players find a 'master' in game. The master system in Destiny Online is essentially a 'mentor' type system where higher level players are encouraged to help out newbies. The game actually makes selecting a 'master' quite easy and upon choosing a 'master' players receive a bonus to their experience as well as a percentage of their master's damage output. This sort of breaks the game, as my level 5 Mage's attack was increased by 267 upon selecting a master, which allowed me to 1 shot practically anything within 10 levels of my character.
Destiny Online isn't the first MMORPG to have a mentor system, as Luminary: Rise of the Goonzu did it as well. I think the mentor system is great in concept, as veterans of the game can help out newer players, but in Destiny Online the bonus damage is a bit ridiculous. After selecting a master, I found that Destiny Online felt a bit too easy. The game wasn't even remotely challenging, but I don't believe the game was even designed to be challenging, at least the PvE component.
Convenient Questing
One of the most polished features in Destiny Online is its 'auto track' system. The auto track system is similar to the pathfinding feature in Eudemons Online and Conquer Online. Players can find quest NPCs and merchants in town simply by clicking the 'find npc' button near their mini map. Players can also easily find quest locations, as quest NPCs and monsters in quest descriptions are highlighted in red. Upon clicking on any red highlighted name – the player will automatically find the selected NPC or monster. This makes completing quests remarkably easy. The game's map also makes things quite convenient, as players can simply bring up the map and left click anywhere on it and their character will automatically move to that location. You can even bring up a map in an entirely different zone and click somewhere to have your character run all the way there automatically.
Bobo… I choose You!
Without a doubt the most interesting feature in Destiny Online is the game's in depth pet system. It's actually a lot like the pet system in Battle of the Immortals. Players can 'catch' practically any enemy in the game using a 'Fairy Rope'. Caught monsters will become pets that level up with alongside the player. Just as players gain 4 stat points per level, pets also gain these stat points, so players can customize their pet's growth. One of the 'new comer' quests require you to catch a BoBo as a pet, so you'll have your very own pet before reaching level 10. Different pets have different abilities, so try them all out and see which works best with your particular class.
Pay to Win!
One of my least favorite aspects of Destiny Online is its in game bot. Like Godswar Online and WYD Global, Destiny Online has a built in bot which can level up your character for you without you ever being near your computer. This bot is actually quite sophisticated, as it can also loot enemies and use potions. Now, none of this would be a 'bad thing' if everyone had access to the bot, to ya'know – level the playing field, but that isn't the case. Players have to pay 'gold' (The cash shop currency) by the hour to use the bot system. This means that paying players have an enormous advantage over free users.
To make things a bit more 'fair', EnjoyMMO does give out 'free gold' to users based on how long they are online. The longer a player remains online the more 'free gold' they get. This gold can be claimed by talking to the Bullion NPC in the game's capital – Golden Plume City after reaching level 35. Paying members still receive an enormous advantage over free users, as the gold obtained without paying are paltry.
Cute PvP
Even though Destiny Online is a 'cute themed' MMORPG, the game still has a PvP system. In fact, the PvP in the game is quite brutal. Upon reaching level 30, players can openly PK each other anywhere outside of a select few 'safe zones'. Players who PK too many innocent people will have their name in red, at which point they have a high chance to drop some of their items upon death. Destiny Online also has a tribal war system, which is essentially a generic faction vs faction system. Members of different tribes get to fight it out across large scale battles.
Other Neat Features
Destiny Online has several interesting features. One of my favorites is the game's 'top lists', which lists some of the most accomplished players in game across various categories. For example, players can view the 'Top grinders' on the server as well as the best 'Armor Smith' simply by clicking on the 'Top List' button. With a public list like this, I'm sure many players will try their best to make it on the list, and those on the list will try to climb as higher as possible. Another thing worth mentioning is that the game world in Destiny Online is surprisingly large. The world is broken down into 9 major areas and each of those major areas have 4-9 different 'maps' inside of them for a total of 70+ maps.
Final Verdict – Fair
Destiny Online is a feature rich 2D Fantasy MMORPG that leaves players wanting more. The game certainly has some interesting aspects, but unfortunately nothing unique. Anyone looking for a family friendly 'cute' themed game should still give the game a chance.

"The Body Never Lies" ~ Martha Graham.featured
Last year I attended a wonderful talk on women's rights and women's clothes at Fashion Institute of Technology in New York. Although hard for me to imagine, the changes described in women's dress since even the 1900s was quite startling. I started to think about the evolution of lingerie too – women's lingerie has evolved enormously since the 1920s when the introduction of elastic fabrics took the bra industry mainstream. Fast forward to the 1980s and my favourite clothing piece the bodysuit, no more an undergarment, was popularised by designers such as Donna Karen and immortalised by the likes of Madonna, Beyonce and Lady Gaga.
Images above from Elle.com / thisislandlife and Tush Magazine.
In another of my posts that combine fashion, lingerie and outerwear, I'm focusing on the one piece. I think that a bodysuit is one of the most flexible and versatile pieces a woman can own; easily converting from day to night, from the casual to the dressy and elegant, from the basic to more risque. Several versions of the one piece exist – teddies, rompers, bodysuits – each slightly different in style but all experiencing a major renaissance as a fashionable garment for women both as lingerie and as outerwear.
Here I'm wearing the black lace romper by Amber Sakai. Amber has a number of sheer lace pieces in her spring collection and this one of my favourites. Some of the other one pieces I am coveting right now are:
Left to right, below: Bordelle Nouvelle Justine body; Dolce & Gabbana Peony- Print matte satin body available to buy here on Net-a-porter; Lascivious Midori bodysuit and The Lake and The Stars Monument stretch mesh body (click here to buy on Net-a-porter).
I'm also wearing my Aiko waistcoat by Lascivious (you really need to see the back of this piece, so I'll do another post soon, I've been wearing it non-stop, Blog Reader) and the BCBG Max Azria Power Skirt bought during my trip to Montreal with the styling help of my friend Lani of Mon Petit Chou Chou.
Do you own a bodysuit, Blog Reader? Are you as much of a fan of them as me?

Nice to hear this, but it woud be better if Nvidia woud support Nuveau driver. I hope that all applications are able to work in Wayland without X11 in long term.
Phoronix: Talk Of NVIDIA Looking At Wayland Support
Reports are surfacing that NVIDIA is looking at ways to implement Wayland support for their binary Linux graphics driver...
Nice to hear this, but it woud be better if Nvidia woud support Nuveau driver. I hope that all applications are able to work in Wayland without X11 in long term.
i knew they would cave in. unless the main dev of wayland gets killed, I really don't see wayland failing. its a win win for everyone other than old neckbeards who live in 1984.
Just what I expected to hear: it's not out, so no plans to commit resources - that's the sane thing to do. Keeping an eye out for Wayland is also a bonus. The only thing that could become a problem is Wayland attitude towards blobs; they have ignored blobs so far. This can be justified, concentrate available resources to getting Wayland to 1.0 first, deal with non-essential features after you have a stable, solid product. Afaik, there is no info available about possible blob support. Seeing that nvidia takes Wayland seriously, let's hope the reciprocal is also true.
I predict yet another Phoronix superthread.
I don't use discrete GPU anymore, I only have a Intel IVB CPU+iGPU for now and future, I'm very happy with more cooler, power efficiency and quiet!
PS I doubt nvidia's blob was written for X.org only because it seems to be working fine on Windows, too.

Some interesting comments about it:
You have to be able to improve the API and ABI.
Sometimes this means changing things.
A good version system is much easier to get right then a whole ABI, API of Wayland and Weston.
Promising too much compatibility is very bad for technical reasons.
Of course they can ADD API's, but they want to make sure exiting ones work.
And for very good reasons. It would be a disaster for leagacy apps if the display server broke it's API every week...
The protocol has versioning stuff so that they can make changes without breaking backward compatibility. A lot of thought seems to have gone into it.
Calm down with all the speculation.
The issue is around that problems arise, mistakes can be made.Quote:
The developers want to make sure that the Wayland API is good enough so that they don't have to break any APIs in the future.
Taking great care in designing things is a good protection to avoid problems but is not a guarantee things are perfect and will never have to be redesigned.
Thank you for resolving the speculation.
It's very nice to hear some information about the version stuff.

Alabama hoping for more film production and revenue in state
It's still too early to tell what effect recent legislation will have on Alabama's ability to attract film and television production companies. But if you ask Kathy Faulk, director of the Alabama Film Office, the marquee might as well read "Welcome to Alabama."
The figures aren't in for just how much production companies spent in Alabama in 2012, but in 2011 those companies spent $22.5 million in the state, according to the film office.
A bill passed by the Alabama Senate in 2012 boosted the amount the film office can offer those production companies in tax incentives, up from $10 million in 2012 to $15 million in 2013. In 2014 that figure will increase to $20 million.
The amendment didn't take effect until this month, but, she said, Faulk is certain it will help bring more film and television production companies to the state.
The film office didn't have to turn any projects away due to lack of funds in 2012, but toward the end of the year Faulk said production companies knew the $10 million was running low.
"They follow it very closely. The payroll companies pay close attention to that and they call us monthly, wanting an update on what's been spent, so they know when to stop asking," Faulk said.
Alabama can't currently compete with neighboring states like Georgia -- with its established film industry infrastructure -- or Louisiana -- with its massive incentives and popular filming destination of New Orleans -- Faulk said.
Faulk added that while Alabama might be behind those states in certain aspects, the production companies that come here love it, and "There's room for us to do what we're doing."
"It's going to take us a while to build on it, and we've got to prove to our Legislature that we're earning it properly and are being good stewards with the state's money, but we're getting there," Faulk said.
Lights, camera, Noccalula
Local independent filmmaker Steven Satterwhite's first feature-length film doesn't qualify for some of the $15 million in tax incentives that will be available by the film office in 2013. He'd have to spend at least $500,000 on the production to get those tax breaks.
Instead, Satterwhite asked for help from friends, borrowed classic cars -- the film is set during WWII -- and kindly asked people if he could shoot at their Gadsden homes.
For a few brief moments on Sunday morning, the 1940s will make a comeback at Noccalula Falls in Gadsden, where Satterwhite hopes as many as a hundred extras will show up in period dress to help with the final scene of his film, "Survive the Innocent."
The Gadsden native and Jacksonville State University student has been filming since February 2012, and with the help of those friends and family, and on a shoestring budget, he's making his dream of creating a full-length feature film come true.
It's a period movie, and since money was a big factor, Satterwhite kept the number of sets to a minimum.
"Most of the film happens inside that one house," Satterwhite said. "I had to buy antiques for an entire house, so it wasn't completely cheap, but yeah. It's a lot cheaper if you only have to do it for one house."
Satterwhite's 11-year-old son Lucas is the main character in the film, which he describes as an alternate history set in World War II, where a boy finds himself alone in America.
The film is slated to be finished in September, Satterwhite said, and will be submitted to the Sundance Film Festival for consideration.
"If it doesn't get in, that's OK. We've got other avenues for distribution," Satterwhite said.
"I'm really excited," Lucas said. "The night that the movie will be out, I won't even be able to sleep a wink to even see it."
Sign-in time and filming direction for extras will be held at 10 a.m. Sunday at the Noccalula Falls parking lot. Anyone who would like to be an extra should dress as much as possible in 1940s clothing, Satterwhite said.

The Honeywell Connect2013 event, which took place November 8-10 in Los Angeles, was declared a success by all the dealers I spoke to.
Of course, dealers generally enjoy themselves at these conventions. There are networking events and parties, educational sessions and parties, awards and parties, speeches and more parties. You get the idea. Honeywell works hard to ensure that its dealers are treated well.
But this particular event was new; It's the is first time the manufacturer gathered all three dealer programs for one convention in one place: First Alert Professionals, CSS Dealers, and HIS dealers. So you've got resi-focused dealers, commercial installers and systems integrators. Honeywell pulled it off—that's what I heard.
The two general sessions featured Honeywell executives talking about priorities, trends, new products and initiatives. A handful of dealers from all three programs also gave 10-minute talks during the general sessions. Here are some highlights:
John Loud of LOUD Security, spoke about the builder market. It was something LOUD was heavily invested in pre-recession. Business dwindled during the recession, but has since been revamped and revived. Loud talked about the "LOUD way" his company rebuilt the new LOUD Builder Program. In the past 12 months, that program has generated $1 million in new revenue for LOUD Security and also helped generate a 72-percent increase in interactive services revenue.
Dave Hood of First Alarm sounded the alarm about going with the all-in-one L5100 panel. Tradition is good, but staying traditional means losing business, he said.
RFI's Brad Wilson, a systems integrator, does business in Silicon Valley with some of the most tech-savvy customers in the country. Wilson obviously has some insight into how security technology—and Honeywell dealer attitudes and priorities—need to progress. He talked about the importance of "building your bench" in the workplace, the advent and affect of the cloud on the security business, importance of RMR even in large systems integration projects, and how many technologies are coming down market, and fast.
Honeywell Security president Ron Rothman talked about sales and advised attendees to spend more time figuring out why you won the someone's business than analyzing why you lost another job. Think about this, he said, and then share what you learn with your employees.
Keynote speaker Roy Spence, of Southwest Airlines fame, talked about the need for thosein the room to reenergize their "entreprenuerial drive to get the 75 percent of the market [that does not have home security.]" He advised the group to think about "where your talent [in security] and the needs of the world intersect." That intersection, he said, is "peace of mind." The same way Southwest Airlines "democratized air travel," the security industry can "democratize peace-of-mind." He warned that if the security industry doesn't take this task to heart, someone else will.
Arturo Ramirez Jr. received the Honeywell Life Safety Award this year for rescuing a woman and four children from a fire. The award is always given by Larry King via video presentation. This year, Larry King presented the award in person. King said: "I couldn't be here in spirit, so I thought I'd come in person." Yup, it was Larry King Live this time.
Jeremy Bates of Bates Security talked about social media. It's part of the company's overall marketing plan. Bates Security engages in a number of social media but focuses its efforts on Facebook, and it hired a marketing specialist to oversee company efforts. A couple of interesting statistics: 46 percent of consumers turn to social media before making a purchase; 70 percent of people on social media don't post, they "lurk." Bates says he wants to ensure that those lurkers have plenty of information about Bates Security available to them via social media.
Todd Bertocchi of Safeguard Security discussed the benefit of managed and hosted service, making the analogy of security dealers moving "from being peddlers [of products] to partners." He said that "hosted systems create RMR, standalone systems do not."
Other product annoucements and initiatives announced at the show:
Total Connect with Voice. Honeywell had a little clubhouse outfitted like a livingroom with "Total Connect with Voice" at the Thursday night cocktail party. In a demonstration for some members of the media, Honeywell's David Gottlieb would say a command for the room to go into nighttime mode: Instantly shades drew shut, the television shut off and lights dimmed. When he issued the command for daytime mode, it all reversed. Very George Jetson.
Honeywell announced that it will have a Casi-Rusco migration solution. There's "a huge installed base, it's a huge opportunity for you," Honeywell's senior director of marketing, Alan Stoddard said.
Stoddard gave these details on the soon-to-be-released Honeywell LYNX Touch 7000/L5200: You can view video on display and connect 84 zones. It has a 7-inch display; two-way voice over wifi, and a number of other newer features.
Honeywell's Marek Robinson talked about how the manufactureris helping FAP, CSS and HIS dealers with demand creatioin. He said that in 2013 year to date, the Honeywell website has "generated 2,000 plus leads that its given to dealers. His goal is to "double that in 2014."
Robinson also described two new partnerships. Honeywell is launching a partner program in Atlanta where it will sell alarm systems from kiosks at Sprint stores. The pilot project will commence next month with Ackerman Security in Norcross, Ga. Honeywell declined to comment further on the deal at this point. I saw Ackerman's Jim Callahan at the event, and he promises to fill me in on details at a later date.
The other partnership is with LifeWay Christian Stores. The goal of this program, according to my notes, is to generate a whopping 40,000 leads for commercial facilities.
Honeywell this week released its new 6100 Series Custom Alpha and Fixed-Language Keypads—and it's great that the keypads will benefit dealers by giving customers a wider range of choices and saving installation time and money.
But as a boomer, I must confess that what jumped out at me is the fact that the keypad's display area is 32 percent larger and the words and icons easier to read. I'm not in marketing, but it seems to me that feature is a great way to promote these keypads to boomers. That's a group for whom security and home automation is important—but who also would like to be able to read the darn panel without having to hunt down their eyeglasses!
Here's more from Honeywell's Nov. 4 announcement:
Honeywell today released the 6100 Series Custom Alpha and Fixed-Language Keypads, giving security dealers a broader portfolio to accommodate a range of homeowner budgets and lifestyles. The Custom Alpha keypads feature VISTA Intelligent Programming (VIP)—an intuitive, menu-based programming option for the most common functions that helps reduce installation time and labor costs. VIP is currently available with Honeywell's VISTA-20P control panels.
Easy-to-use graphics and a symmetrical design give the 6100 Series the same look and feel as Honeywell's home and business controllers with touchscreen displays. The seven-model suite offers larger screens with light, neutral backlighting that blends with most interiors. The devices occupy less wall space while providing 32-percent larger display areas with bold fonts and graphic icons, which are ideal for the elderly or visually impaired. Additionally, function and arming keys provide quick set-up and easier use. These new models offer voice, integrated RF or a hardwired zone to best meet the needs of the installation, and the homeowner's budget.
I'm getting ready for a quick trip to the West Coast for the HoneywellConnect 2013 event, which is taking place Nov. 7-10 in Los Angeles. This is a debut event for Honeywell, combining what used to be its First Alert Professional conference with events it did with its CSS and HIS dealers. I heard they're expecting more than 800 people. I'm looking forward to catching up with Security Systems News' readers that fall into all of those categories.
I was just checking out the App for the program. I'm impressed. The App includes descriptions and locations for the educational sessions and other events and a list of attendees. It also allows you to set up a personal schedule. What I like the best, however, is it allows you to send a message to another attendee from the App itself. Great idea. If you're reading this and have news to share, send me a message via the App.
The educational sessions at FAP have always been well attended and interactive, and I'm assuming Connect2013's will be as well. I'm looking forward to these sessions in particular: Connected Home/Connected Small Business; Integated Systems Revenue Opportunities; Strategic Business Planning; Demand Creation; 2G to 4G Migration; Grant Writing; Business Metrics; The Right Acquisition Strategy; Server Virtualization; Hosted Video; Regulatory Compliance Management; and Vertical Market Success.
I'll be blogging and tweeting during the event. Look for updates here Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Going to be a busy three days.
Some hiring news surfaced this week from north of the border. Yorkton, Saskatchewan-based SecurTek, which has three central stations in Canada and commercial and residential accounts in several provinces, hired Darrell Jones to be its new president and CEO, the company announced in a news release.
Jones comes to the SecurTek, a subsidiary of SaskTel, a Canadian telecom company, from outside the industry. He worked previously at the Manitoba Housing and Renewal Corporation, and his background also includes active involvement as a board member with the Real Estate Institute of Manitoba.
He'll now be at the helm of a company with a dealer network of 150 partners, in retail, wholesale monitoring and security servicing. In addition to its commercial and residential security offerings, SecurTek provides video and medical monitoring.
"Darrell has established strong and positive working relationships with the non-profit sector, stakeholder organizations, and the private sector in his role with the Manitoba Housing and Renewal Corporation," Ron Styles, SaskTel President and CEO, said in a news release. "Darrell will be a strong addition to the SecurTek team and I'm confident under his leadership SecurTek will continue to grow and thrive."
In the coming week I hope to speak with Jones about the transition to the security industry, and to explore how his background in real estate could be a boon to someone hoping to expand the company's residential and commercial account bases.
Sharon Shaw, who is well known in the security industry as an evangelist of managed services, a skilled trainer and director of education, has taken on a new role at Tech Systems Inc, an Atlanta-based systems integrator.
Shaw was formerly president of Integrator Support, and director of education for PSA Security. (She's also part of my TechSec Advisory board. )
Here's a link to a story I wrote about Tech Systems Inc. in January. TSI appears to be a great fit for Shaw's skills. She told me she was drawn to the company's "service-centric culture." The services piece—managed as well as services in general—is something Shaw knows well. And it's not an overstatement to say that TSI is big into service. When I did that story in January, Larry Simmons, TSI VP of client services, told me that if a customer is not interested in "a strong service offering, we don't waste resources [on that job]." As a result, TSI in January was "very close to achieving our goal of being able to cover 100 percent of our operating costs [with] recurring revenue."
AT TSI, If service techs want to leave a job site without completing a service call for any reason, the request must be approved by a regional manager, a director, and ultimately by the CEO or Simmons before that tech may leave the job without finishing. TSI's service program is called FOCUS, and the company reports some impressive results. "In 2012, TSI responded to 16,467 FOCUS-related service calls. We only failed to either achieve response time or functionality 30 times, giving TSI a 99.99 percent success rate. Our success rate has not dropped below 99.7 percent over the past three years," Simmons said.
In her new role as Client Development Manager, Shaw will develop continuing education programs for Tech Systems' customers and staff. The idea is to have a "quality communications programs and [see that there's] a continuing stream of relevant information so everyone is informed and when they're making decisions, they have the best tools and resources available to them," she told me.
Tech Systems has 164 employees across the country. Headquartered here, it has other brick-and-mortar offices in North Carolina and California. Employees elsewhere work from virtual offices.
Congratulations to Shaw, and kudos to TSI for a smart hire.
The good news keeps on coming from SAFE Security. I just wrote recently how the San Ramon, Calif.-based company—celebrating its silver anniversary this year—has doubled in size. Now, SAFE has announced this week that it has acquired more than 16,000 accounts, representing $650,000 in RMR.
The new accounts are CastleRock Security residential and commercial alarm monitoring subscriber accounts.
"These accounts fit very nicely into our U.S. and Canada footprint," Paul Sargenti, SAFE president, CEO and founder, said in a prepared statement in an Oct. 29 news release. "With this acquisition we have more than doubled our account base since 2012. We are well equipped to assimilate them and look forward to providing the highest standard in security services to these new subscribers."
Sargenti added, "SAFE is firmly positioned as a full service alarm company and this purchase complements our other growing revenue channels."
The company says it also is seeing strong organic growth from its dealer program, SAFE Dealer Network.
Some intriguing financial news out of the Monitronics/Ascent Capital camp. Ascent Capital Group's largest direct stockholder, media mogul John Malone, recently sold half his preferred shares—worth $32.7 million in cash—back to the company, according to a news release from Ascent Capital. The divestment comes nearly three years after Ascent acquired Monitronics in a $1.2 billion deal.
Malone, who sold 351,734 shares, now owns the same number of Series B shares, plus 198,540 Series A shares, which together comprise 21.6 percent of the Ascent shareholder vote, the release noted.
In an email exchange, Henry Edmonds, president of The Edmonds Group, a St. Louis-based investment bank, indicated that the move would likely please shareholders. "Ascent has had plenty of cash on its balance sheet so this is not a bad use of funds to help stock price," he said.
It will be interesting to see what (if any) effect this has on operations at Monitronics, a wholly owned operating subsidiary of Ascent. An investor I contacted seemed to believe it would not have much effect. Yesterday, the company announced that it will report its earnings on Nov. 12, 2013. On that date, the company will host a conference call in which management will give an update on Ascent's operations, including the financial performance of Monitronics, and "may also discuss future opportunities," the release said.
In all likelihood I'll be dialing into that conference call, which I'm hoping will shed some light on what those opportunities might be.
Jay Hauhn, chief technology officer and VP of industry relations at Tyco Integrated Security, has been named president of CSAA. The announcement was made at the organization's recent annual meeting in Quebec City. Hauhn, who most recently served as vice president for the organization, assumes the role held by Robert Bean, whose term expires this year.
Hauhn is actively involved in several industry organizations. Since 2011, he has served as chairman of the board at The Security Industry Association, a role in which he has executive responsibility for all interaction with industry associations, regulatory agencies and state and federal governments. His current term as Chairman of the Board at SIA ends this year.
Hauhn also sits on the board of directors at the Security Industry Alarm Coalition, and he is chairman of the Electronic Security Association's government relations committee.
I'm scheduled to speak with Hauhn later this week about his expanded role at CSAA. In that interview, I'll discuss some of Hauhn's short- and long-term ambitions as the newly minted leader of the organization.
Prism Skylabs, a two-year-old startup founded by Ron Palmeri and 3VR's Steve Russell today announced a $15 million Series B funding round led by Intel Capital, Intel Corporations' investment and M&A business. The round included investments from Presidio Ventures, Triangle Peak, Data Collective, Expa, and some existing investors, Russell told me.
Prism Skylab is a cloud service that transforms any video camera "into visual merchandising, auditing and business intelligence tool that can be accessed in real time from any device."
"On the business side, it's hard to overstate the value of having [an investor] like Intel for a company like Prism," Russell said.
The funding round was announced today in San Diego at the 14th Annual Intel Capital Global Summit where Intel awarded a total of $65 million in funding to 16 companies.
"At this conference we are able to look at how Prism might integrate with next-gen mobile devices [as well as the possibilities, for example, of using] new techniques in a data center that will allow us to increase our performance over 100-fold."
"The core of our business is the R&D and product work we do, and we'll continue to invest in that," Russell said, but the bulk of the funds from this round will be used for sales and marketing.
Since its launch, Prism has "brought on a host of interesting first customers, the new challenge for the business is to continue to serve the large customers we've won already and to build out our sales and marketing team to expand [the customer base] even further."
Prism SkyLabs has "well north of 50 customers" that include Fortune 500 companies and well-known brands that fall into the category of "large distributed retail companies."
"We solve one or two important problems for them," Russell said. "We provide a set of data and instruments in the real world that heretofore you could only get for online properties. … The other value we provide is allowing global brands to peek in and better manage their stores," he added.
"It's the analytic and visual [capabilities] that are really the secret sauce," he said.
Prism now has about 30 employees and Russell expects to double the size of the company within the next 12 months.
Prism raised $7.5 million in funding in October 2012.
"Intel Capital has long been known as a hands-on investor," Russell said. Among the ways the investor will assist Prism include "providing networking and matchmaking [among] its truly vast portfolio [of partners]."
The Intel Summit "[has] been an incredibly productive and fun three days for us," he said.
Timothy McGinn and David L. Smith, former partners in the Albany, N.Y.-based brokerage firm of McGinn, Smith & Co., which conducted dealings in the alarm industry, will serve out their fraud sentences in the same penitentiary, according to a recent Albany Business Review report.
I wrote here in August about their sentencing, after the two were convicted earlier this year of fraud, conspiracy and tax evasion in a Ponzi-like scheme that caused investors to lose millions. A judge called 65-year-old McGinn "arrogant" and sentenced him to 15 years in prison. Smith, 68, convicted of fewer counts than McGinn, received a 10-year sentence.
Now, the Albany Business Review reports, the two are both in the same prison in Brooklyn, N.Y. Here's more from the Oct. 17 article:
The federal Bureau of Prisons says both men are now at the Metropolitan Detention Center, in Brooklyn.
Prosecutors say as many as 900 investors lost money. …
Attorneys for McGinn and Smith originally believed the two would wind up in different prisons. Smith had requested to remain fairly close to his family, who live in Saratoga Springs.
Attorneys say that McGinn, meanwhile, needs special medical attention for his diabetes, and residual concerns resulting from a heart attack in 2010, months after the FBI and IRS and the Securities and Exchange Commission began probing the McGinn-Smith operations.

The two pleaded not guilty to the charges they faced, and maintained their innocence when testifying at trial. They are preparing an appeal, which may not be heard for several years.

You've discovered that you own contaminated property. Now what?
Blog Entry:
December 06, 2012 4:30 AM | Author: JOHN A. HEER, ESQ.
John A. Heer, Esq.
John A. Heer, Esq.
is a partner in the Environmental and Litigation Group of
Walter & Haverfield LLP
in Cleveland.
Northeastern Ohio has a long history of industrial activity and associated land use. Often, property transactions in this area involve parcels which have been impacted environmentally by industrial activity, chemical and hazardous substance usage, or other contamination on or near the potential property site. For decades, experienced lenders, purchasers and sellers of potentially contaminated property have relied upon environmental site assessments (usually referred to as Phase I's) performed by consultants before any transaction is completed. Even with due diligence, contamination can be discovered on your property.
So … what is a reasonable amount of due diligence?
As with most legal issues, it depends on the circumstances. However, in almost every situation, a Phase I is a minimum step which provides important information about the property without adding substantial cost to the transaction (usually between $3,000 and $6,000). The purpose of a Phase I is to investigate and determine the possibility of contamination, based on visual observation and property history, but without any physical testing. A Phase I might recommend additional investigation (called a Phase II), including physical sampling and testing. You should review any relevant documents, including all environmental permits, compliance and audit records, communications with government agencies, documents reflecting response actions or remediation, and any environmental claims by the government or third parties. This level of due diligence will not prevent contamination from showing up later, but it can minimize your legal exposure.
What happens if contamination is discovered?
Before you do anything, review with your legal counsel all potential reporting obligations. Reporting obligations are most often triggered by terms or conditions in an environmental permit or by federal and state statutes. Some can even require notice to the appropriate agency within 24 hours of discovery. Depending on the required timing of the reporting obligation, if any, you might want to consider performing an environmental compliance audit under proper conditions to which a privilege or protection from disclosure might apply. The key consideration at this point is how much you want to know. You must be willing and able to act on any issues you might uncover. After reporting obligations are satisfied, try to identify potential sources of the contamination – either on-site or off-site (again based upon legal counsel's instructions). Most likely, the best way to do this is by talking to individuals, including current and former employees, whose knowledge of the property extends well back in time, e.g. plant managers, EHS coordinators, maintenance workers, etc. Another good source of information might be historical records of the company, including environmental forms and filings, property layouts and drawings, etc. Although an expert would be needed for an admissible opinion, you can look at the topography and estimate the general direction of surface and ground water flow to guess which way contamination might flow – to or from the site. The next step is to conduct an investigation to determine what needs to be remedied, how the remedy will be implemented and how much it will cost. As with some of the steps above, this step should be followed only under the guidance of legal counsel who can engage the environmental consultants for any investigation. I recommend that, after executing confidentiality agreements, you obtain at least three bids for the investigation and any possible remediation. How you manage communications and information, both internally and externally, is also a vital consideration. In addition, be aware that an environmental investigation can require several phases and months (or years) to complete. The ground rules for the investigation are simple – comply with National Contingency Plan or similar procedural requirements under law.
What kind of damages could I have?
If remediation is required, you may incur various damages which you might be able to recover from a responsible party. Possible damages include: the estimated costs to remediate; the costs already incurred; future costs; diminished value of property; diminished use of property; and potential human health effects. Depending on the costs and the potential for success, you might consider bringing legal action against the responsible party.
Hopefully, with an appropriate amount of due diligence, you will not discover that your property is contaminated. However, if you do, you must tread carefully to avoid making your situation worse. Hiring capable legal counsel is a logical first step. Environmental contamination can cause you to incur costs which range from thousands to millions, but you will not be able to narrow this range without following the steps outlined above.
