Visual Treats – Some of my favorite Italian wine labels
August 15, 2012 at 7:19 pm 4 comments
I've tasted several hundred Italian wines from every region of the country over the past few months for an important project I'm working on (more on that in a few weeks). I'm getting there, but have a lot more to taste, so today, just a fun post displaying some of my favorite Italian wine labels. God knows there are hundreds, perhaps thousands of wonderful labels out there, especially the classically designed ones that adorn the products of many famous Barolo, Brunello and Amarone producers. For this display however, I thought I'd go with some of the more distinctive modern designs, all graphically unique and beautiful.
What I love about these labels is that they are beautifully designed with distinctive graphics, yet you have no problem identifying the wine and the producer in an instant.
Do you have any cutting edge Italian labels you love? Let me know!

Being an artist and a wine lover, I often select my wine not only by the grape and food to accompany it, but by the beautiful label as well! I recently bought a bottle of Carpineto DOGAJOLO Rosato…the label featuring the most beautiful and delicate bouquet of flowers and grapes–their white and red labels are also beautiful!
One of the best I know is from Fabrizio Dionisio, producer of a wonderful Cortona Syrah. His beautiful labels were drawn by one of his kids!

Knit Hats
Knit hats are the quintessential fall/winter headwear. At one point in time, these hats and caps were only meant for practical use. However, a new generation of men's caps and women's hats have sprung up to take the knit look to a whole other level! Classic and contemporary shapes such as jeep caps, fedora hats, women's berets, and slouchy caps have all been made into a warm, acrylic knit for you to not only look good, but feel great at the same time! Easy to wear and stretch to fit, these knit hats will certainly become your everyday look.
Belfry Street features a collection of knit caps that you won't find in most other places! Some are made exclusively from recycled sweater clippings, while others are made from naturally sheared Mohair!

Hey Michael now that you have there the A10 7850K APU and the RadeonHD R7 260X how about testing the Dual Graphics feature with Catalyst??
It would be very interesting to see first if it works and if it is, how it performs under Linux!
Michael Larabel
So what you end up with a slightly larger HTPC case, it's not much bigger then my surround sound amp. If you are going through the trouble of building an HTPC you may as well build an actual theater in your living room. Nothing better then waking up the neighbors when watching something like Machete Kills or playing Metro: Last Light.
You can passively cool lower midrange CPUs as well, especially if you under volt them.
You can get PSUs like the Seasonic X series that run fanless unless they get too hot.
A 120mm-250mm 800RPM @ 12v case fan is inaudible.
The power draw under video playback is negligible.
Don't limit yourself artificially, the HTPC can be allot more if you put some effort into it.
KB/M suck for allot of games, hence all of the Linux games on Steam that have controller support. Also I have a "TV tray" for a bluetooth KB and Mouse for the few games that don't map well to a controller.
In the battle between my recliner couch or Lay-Z-Boy and my desk chair my ass always chooses the recliner couch or Lay-Z-Boy.
Weirdly, I was able to run Unigine Heaven video test perfectly fine for video, but the audio was still the same scratchy sound.
I've used both the open sourced drivers and ATI's drivers, with same results.
I really know nothing of Linux and how to troubleshoot.
I really like Linux Mint, so I stuck with that, but I had to set modeset = 0 when booting off the Live ISO just so I can install the OS.
I also had to turn off the screen saver, because every time it went to screen saver, it froze the machine. Completely froze it. I could not open a terminal or do any of those keystroke commands when the GUI is frozen. Nor could I telnet into the box when it's frozen (i am able to from another machine when I'm actively logged in)
Could anybody help?
1. Download the proper LInux driver from AMD website
2. sudo Xorg -configure
3. cd ~\Downloads folder or wherever the driver folder is extracted to
4. sudo sh ./amd-driver'
5. In Linux Mint 16 an installation wizard appears but not in Ubuntu 14.04
6. In Linux Mint 16 once the FGLRX drivers are installed I had some bezels on the screen. In order to temporarily remove them, go to amd catalyst center and resize one monitor at a time to the lowest resolution and then back up to the highest to remove the bezels. For a permanent full-screen, no bezel; you have to change some files. I think in the /etc folder. Google it.
For Fglrx on anything else than Linux Mint 16 that I tried it didnø't install and I had to reinstall Linux after it hang on bootload.
So annoyed I trusted Phoronix and bought this card. Should have got a NVidia instead or one of the supported ATI's from Ubuntu hardware list!
It should work in Ubuntu 14.04, too, no? I've had problems with the 'black screen' problem when installing Nvidia drivers, too. Except, that is usually due to using a newer driver than one already in the repo - i.e. a 'more-up-to-date' video driver. Or, alternatively, using a driver that is directly from the Nvidia site - in other words, not pre-packaged by the distro devs. I think that is how you describe it? If not, someone can correct me????
Anyway, did you post to the Ubuntu forums or go to one of the Ubuntu IRC support channels? Maybe somebody there has had the same issue or has gone through the same install process with Catalyst/fgrlx? I found these urls/links so maybe they might help somewhat???:
Steps from above link:
AMD developer support forum sections including Linux topics:
The askubuntu site is said to be good for support answers or ideas?:

How many of you would like to see a TT bag tag? It would be great to identify other TT members on the course and a great way to promote Team Titleist to golfers that have never heard of it.
2 years ago
I'd display one proudly. Great idea!!
I know one would look great on my bag by my 910 D3, AP 2's, Vokey wedges, Cameron putter and Pro V1x's.
Although with snow and cold weather in MN I can look at it on my bag. If I got one.
I assumed you guys already had one.. I'd definitely put one on all 3 of my Titleist bags..
A TT bag tag would be an awesome addition to the rest of my Titleist paraphernalia. I moved to Titleist a couple years ago from cleve and will never trade for anything else. They are on the cutting edge and always trying to make a golfer better. Thanks Titleist!!! Hit me up with one of those tags if you got some extras.
Great idea i would definitely put it on my bag to represent titleist!
i like them
Like all the rest of the TT membership out there, and being a complete Titleist equipment afficianado, I would love to support and add a great tag on my bag, too! I'm on vacation out in Colorado for the Holidays and won't know if I got one back home in NY till I return on the 8th of January. I hope, I hope, I hope so! Besides, Aren't we supposed to show off our TT pride!
Would go great with the rest of my gear...
I just received mine in the mail and it's already on my bag...proudly!
I've seen some pictures of people who've received them in the mail. I would love to get one !
I think it's a great idea. In fact, I received mine today and it's on the bag!
I am seeing these posted everywhere and I am so jealous. I hope one gets sent to me. I would put it on my bag with pride.
Sounds great I would put one on my bag

Nearly half of the ODA committed to the water sector in 2003-2004 benefited to large water supply and sanitation systems. Water resources policy/administrative management accounted for another quarter, and basic drinking water supply and basic sanitation received 20%. Waste management or water resources protection, only received small amounts.
According to the 2006 Human Development Report, this predominance of large-scale water and sanitation infrastructure indicates a strong urban focus of aid flows to the water sector.
The allocation of ODA for water in the last decade remained relatively stable with Africa and Asia receiving most of the funds.
Within these regions, East Asia and Sub-Saharan Africa are unquestionably those receiving most of ODA for water, followed by Central and Southern Asia and North Africa. ODA for water to the Middle Eastern countries has also increased a lot since 1990. The vast increase between 2003 and 2004 is largely due to the commitments made to Iraq by the United States in 2004 (887 million of constant USD, 2004 prices).

Great Salt Lake's water level fluctuates dramatically due to seasonal shifts in inflow water volume and the rate of evaporation. The Utah lake is a closed basin with no outlet for water, so floods like those of the mid-1980s can be severe and destructive.

What he is saying is that they should do exactly what the GNOME people and RedHat are doing, whatever that happens to be at any given point. It is right by definition and cannot possibly be wrong, since everyone who disagree is obviously stupid
FWIW, I like Amarok, I didn't mind v2, but I've recently switched to Clementine, which is also great.
I also dislike amarok since quite some time, but used it nevertheless - until to the point where several things broke for me (partly phonon-backend related, partly their own bugs). Since then I'm using be::mpc, which serves all my needs.
You're just frustrated because the software YOU use does not let you do the things you want. Instead of switching, you want everybody to be stuck to a feature-less monopoly just so you don't feel inferior.
AMAROK IS NOONES COMPETItItION BUT EVERYONES LAUGH. I really hope the decreasing number of contributors have the moral to continue to the walk down boulevard of FAIL. Each new release brings more funny shit. And my audio player? It works fine, no need for abstration layers or oversized computers.

Happy Family
I was first introduced to Happy Family during my college days. I was in graduate school, back in the Midwest, and not quite cooking up a storm like I am doing now. So, hitting local Chinese buffets and take-outs was a good place to be for someone like me who misses their Chinese food. It was also then that I got acquainted to all the popular American-Chinese food selections. I was mostly intrigued by the American version of Sweet and Sour Chicken, BBQ Ribs, Crab Rangoon, Egg Drop Soup, to name a few, and among these, Happy Family was one of them. Although spending a whopping US$13 (I was a poor international student then) for a large order of Happy Family with white rice on the side seemed hefty for a college student, my friends and I would usually save up to order a few items and share among ourselves, sometimes enough to last us for 3 days! Being so far from home, Chinese food—albeit the Americanized version—was always our comfort food.
I missed home dearly, particularly mom's cooking. At the end of the day, mom always made sure we had a balanced meal. A typical family dine-in experience is usually served with dishes consisting of meat, vegetables and seafood of some sort. And that is exactly what the dish Happy Family is! It is a popular Chinese stir-fry dish with colorful vegetables (broccoli, water chestnuts, baby corn, bamboo shoots, mushroom, carrots, etc.), meats (beef, pork/BBQ Pork and chicken) and seafood (shrimp, lobster/crab meat and scallops) cooked in a simple brown sauce.
I don't think I have ever encountered any dish quite like Happy Family. It's a great one-pot meal filled with goodness and taste! In my book, Happy Family is one of those delicious guilt-free happy meals that symbolizes a well-balanced Chinese dish and an American-Chinese creation that I actually enjoy.

Omg, reminds me of the college days in the midwest and Chinese buffets on the weekends…so happy back then to eat Chinese food, all your can eat.
I think someone needs to come up with a dish called "Modern Family".
I like the brown sauce recipe in this.
Moo goo gai pan is a favorite of mine.
Stay tune as I'll be posting that sometime soon:)
Please, please give us more Chinese American dishes. Love this site & your recipes are always so easy to make. Thanks!
Thank you for your support, Charlotte. Will definitely keep those Chinese American dishes coming. What would be your favorite dish?
Sound like my college days in Houston.
I loved most is Chop Suey with Chicken Fillet. And yes, I do missed the Chinese Buffet back in the States.
Do you use this brown sauce in other dishes? This sounds good, but my husband doesn't eat seafood and certain vegetables.
I forgot to mention that my favorite changes periodically. My current favorites are: chicken with broccoli, beef with broccoli, or shrimp with broccoli. Sometimes I mix the three.
Maria, this sounds like a balanced Happy Family in my book. Omit seafood if you don't take it and as for the simple brown sauce, its pretty versatile. Use if for any type of Chinese stir-fry dishes as you wish, or a simply Lo Mein for a matter a fact. Enjoy!
Did I miss where this recipe states the approximate number of servings?
This recipe will well serve 4 persons.
Shrimp with Lobster Sauce & mu shu chicken/pork!
Yummy my family loved it

Hummm I wonder where you get I am Incorrect in the Information about the Child Molesters I have dealt with in the last 10+ years?
Have you talked to any of them?
Have you reviewed their Court Records?
Their Visitation Lists?
I never said there are not Child Molesters Caught or Suspected to Be in BSA, Just I have Never Encountered one.
I see their Visitation List, I see their Convictions, I know their Families, I see their Court Records.
I have had to take more in depth Training on Pedophiles I dare say than you have. I don't make up the stats, call some experts and see what they say about the stats or Course Materials...Here are some of the Qouted Sources Material I have been Lectured On..every year for the last 10 years..
"Pedophilia and Homosexually are two different things. The truth is most child molesters and those who are into Child pornography are Heterosexual men not gay men. Most of these Heterosexual men are completely straight when it comes to their adult sexual interest, but can be either be Bi Gay or straight when it comes to their sexual interest in children, most are Bisexual when it comes to their sexual interest for children. Of course there are Gay men who also have a sexual interest in children but this has to do with being a Pedophile not being Gay if being gay was the reason why little boys are sexually molested then all little girls who are sexually molested would be so because most men are Heterosexual and not Gay."
"In 1992, alarmed over claims made during a campaign for an anti-gay state constitutional amendment in Colorado, two physicians reviewed every case of suspected child molestation evaluated at Children's Hospital in Denver over a one-year period. Of the 269 cases determined to involve molestation by an adult, only two of the perpetrators could be identified as gay or lesbian. The researchers concluded that the risk of child sexual abuse by an identifiably gay or lesbian person was between zero and 3.1%, and that the risk of such abuse by the heterosexual partner of a relative was over 100 times greater."
"Homosexuals only make up 7% of pedophilia cases. Also, most men who molest boys are interested in the feminine qualities of the boys and are straight. Most of us think that a child molester is a rather slimy individual( a stranger in town, sitting in his car near a schoolyard, luring children with candy. Our findings reveal that, on the contrary, the child molester is not a stranger, but is someone we know well. He often is a man we trust, a man our children trust. . . . As a rule, he is married and has children of his own whom he usually does not molest. He is almost always a well‑respected, even loved, member of his community. He is often an active Christian who is involved in his church."
Please Tell The State Of Texas that they are spreading False Information and to Stop Making Us Sit through Course every year just So They can say they Train us..
Can you provide sources to the Contrary?
I was not the One Who Introduced Homosexuality into the discussion in the First Place


text: During one of the Republican presidential debates Mitt Romney was asked if he'd "shutter" FEMA and end federal disaster relief....his answer, ""Absolutely. Every time you have an occasion to take something from the federal government and send it back to the states, that's the right direction. And if you can go even further, and send it back to the private sector, that's even better. Instead of thinking, in the federal budget, what we should cut, we should ask the opposite question, what should we keep?" "Including disaster relief, though?" debate moderator John King asked Romney. "We cannot -- we cannot afford to do those things without jeopardizing the future for our kids," Romney replied. "It is simply immoral, in my view, for us to continue to rack up larger and larger debts and pass them on to our kids, knowing full well that we'll all be dead and gone before it's paid off. It makes no sense at all." He then went on to add that privatizing disaster relief would be an even better solution. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/10/28/mitt-romney-fema_n_2036198.html Last night, faced with the current impending disaster, (which will affect several critical swing states) his campaign seemingly reaffirmed his opinion by issuing the following statement: "Gov. Romney wants to ensure states, who are the first responders and are in the best position to aid impacted individuals and communities, have the resources and assistance they need to cope with natural disasters." Add this to his heartless response to a victim of September's flooding in Louisiana when she told him she'd lost everything in the storm and asked him what could be done and he told her to "Go home and call 211," and you may have the makings of an "October Downfall." http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/09/01/mitt-romney-211_n_1848432.html

Please note that as of October 24, 2014, the Nokia Developer Wiki will no longer be accepting user contributions, including new entries, edits and comments, as we begin transitioning to our new home, in the Windows Phone Development Wiki. We plan to move over the majority of the existing entries. Thanks for all your past and future contributions.
Mobile Web Design : Faceted Navigation
This design pattern is part of the Mobile Web Design series.
Helping the user by providing intuitive navigation pattern and search options goes a long way in ensuring a higher usability index for any website. Especially on mobile phones, where the user doesn't want to enter too many things manually, it makes a lot of sense to possibly give the user more choices to get to their desired information faster. A possibly fast and reliable way of assisting the user in filtering content faster is faceted navigation pattern.
A facet is a distinct feature of a product/element/entity, which makes it unique from the others. For instance if the user decides to buy a pair of Nike shoes, the facets to it could be, the sex of the person who would wear the shoes(male), the price(below 200 $)/color(white)/ category(sneakers)of the shoe, which would make it different from the other shoes that Nike possibly sells.
The intention behind faceted navigation is to allow the user to sieve through multitudes of information till they are able to get to their desired result. The user would be given default first level choices, which wrong bring in another related second level of choices and so on, at each level the amount of choices keep narrowing down depending on the input provided at the earlier level. The final outcome of a faceted navigation is that the user is able to get their desired product/information/content.
When to use
Some places where it makes a lot of sense to use faceted navigation pattern are:-
- The user has to chose from a large variety of options available and they might be confused with the amount of data they have to go through to get to their final goal.
- When the items share the same features and the same item does not belong to more then one category. For instance on a website which allows viewing items by price, if the choices are below 100$ and above 100$, if a product ends up being listed in both categories the faceted navigation would fail.
- Faceted navigation works well for a collection of things like flights/cars/books etc
Some of the key advantages of using this navigation approach are:-
- Allows the user multiple perspectives to the same thing, for instance the user can get to a Beethoven CD, through price/genre narrow down approach or through period of release/price narrow down approach.
- It is generally more intuitive from an end user perspective, for instance if the user chooses bus as a mode of transport, they know that the end result would list that only maybe only with different times/classes etc.
- Allows quick narrow down to the desired result if the facets of the items have been tagged properly and are unique for the item in question.
Some of the key disadvantages of using this navigation approach are:-
- If the user is not sure about the facets of the item they are looking for, this pattern might end up confusing them more than actually helping them.
- If the items have not been tagged properly and end up listed in two categories or sharing 2 metadata information, the faceted navigation would throw confusing results.
- If the size of data to be filtered is huge, the level of facets would be enormous and the possible task of tagging the items uniquely could become a challenge for the developer.
Final Word
Faceted navigation can be a very user friendly pattern provided the amount of data to be filtered is limited and the tagging has been done uniquely enough. From a usability perspective faceted navigation along with an advanced/basic search option could work very well giving them the flexibility to chose between the two.

Voice Commands in Windows Phone 8
This article explains how to use voice commands in an application to perform actions, tasks or any initiative work in Windows Phone 8
- Voice commands for Windows Phone 8 (Dev Center)
- Voice command element and attribute reference for Windows Phone 8 (Dev Center)
- Handling errors in speech apps for Windows Phone (Dev Center)
Windows Phone 8
Windows Phone 7.5 had minimal speech functionality. In Windows Phone 8 gives developers a lot more options, including:
- Inbuilt Text-to-speech (TTS) [offline]
- Improvised Speech-to-Text (STT) [online processing for quality] and
- Registration of applications with OS for opening them with voice and in-app voice commands
Windows Phone 8 speech functionality includes:
- voice commands
- speech recognition
- text-to-speech, means now developer is able to add above mentioned functionality in his app.
Using voice command functionality user is able to make his application responsible to respond voice commands.
With the help of phrase link to the specific application page application can perform specific task or any initiative work. You can simply check voice command functionality in your windows phone 7.5 and above by just holding start key.
Refer following screen shots
|Basic voice command listening UI
|Basic what can i say UI
How to achieve
The following steps need to be performed in order to add voice command functionality in an application:
- Create voice command file
- Install voice command file in OS
- Write code to handle navigation handling and command execution.
Capabilities required
To add capabilities in your project
- Go to your project from Solution Explorer and open WMAppManifest.xml file from Properties section.
- Click Capabilities tab and check above mentioned capabilities and save the file.
Create voice command definition file
The following steps describe how to create Voice command definition file:
- Right click the windows phone project in visual studio
- Go to Add New Item
- Select Voice Command Definition from list
- Give proper name to the VCD file.
Refer following screen shot.
By default visual studio provides basic template of VCD file which you need to update with your own voice commands and their intended actions. Typical voice command file contains
- Example phrase to show how user can invoke command
- The words or phrase that can be recognized to invoke command
- Action taken after the particular command is invoked with the help of page navigation.
- The text to display or speak to respond user after command recognized(note it uses TTS functionality to speak text)
Voice Command Definition file in detail
A typical Voice Command is made up of 3 parts:
- Application Name (not required for in-app commands)
- Command
- Phrase
Let us consider the following example of VCD file to understand the voice command in detail:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<VoiceCommands xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/voicecommands/1.0">
<CommandSet xml:lang="en-US" Name="MyVoiceCommands">
<Example>hello what is current date</Example>
<Command Name="Util">
<Example> What is current time </Example>
<ListenFor> what [is] current {options}</ListenFor>
<Feedback>showing current {options}</Feedback>
<Navigate Target="Target.xaml"/>
<Command Name="Calculator">
<Example> 2 plus 3 </Example>
<ListenFor>{operand1} {operation} {operand2} </ListenFor>
<Feedback> Showing {operand1} {operation} {operand2}</Feedback>
<Navigate Target="Target.xaml"/>
<PhraseList Label="options">
<Item>battery percentage</Item>
<PhraseList Label="operation">
<PhraseList Label="operand1">
<PhraseList Label="operand2">
VoiceCommands: This is a root element of voice command definition file which can contain one or more CommandSet elements each of which contains voice commands.
CommandSet: This element serves as container for all voice command. User can define actual voice commands under it for a single language defined for xml:lang attribute of CommandSet. User can also specify name for CommandSet element but it is optional. But it becomes useful when user wants to modify PhraseList pragmatically as you can see this in Modify Voice Command Definition file section of this article.
CommandPrefix: This is a child element of VoiceCommands which can be optional, but if present, must be the first child element of CommandSet. This element is used for giving name for application which user can speak in order to give voice command hence it is useful for the applications which have long and difficult names to pronounce. In above example, command prefix is "hello" that means if user wants to give command to this application then he must use "hello" word at the start of any command.
Command: This is compulsory child element for CommandSet Element. This element defines action which needs to be taken after receiving voice command. Each command corresponds to specific page in your application, you can have multiple commands.
Example: This is compulsory child element of command which can be used to help user for what he can say as in "What can I Say" screen.
You can view this in supported command list of application, please refer following screen shot, it shows Did you know? screen after successfully registering above vcd file, this screen clearly shows example which you mentioned in VCD file.
To get "did you know?" screen of your application.
- Make sure that VCD file of your application is successfully installed, Hold start key until "Listening" popup appears.
- Now click question mark icon on "Listening" popup it will open "WHAT CAN I SAY?" pivot item.
- Now go to the "apps" section where you can see list of applications which supports voice commands, clicking on application you want leads to "did you know?" screen.
You can launch "WHAT CAN I SAY?" by another way also
- Hold start button
- Speak "what can I say?".
Refer the following screen shots.
|did you know?
Listenfor: Compulsory child element of Command element, which defines text that Application recognizes for command.
As shown in above VCD file you can use curly and square braces these are special characters.
Curly braces represents Phrase list and square braces represent optional text means user does not have any compulsion for speaking text defined in square bracket.
Single ListenFor element may refer to one or more PhraseList as shown in above example of vcd file Calculator command refers to three PhraseList namely operand1, operation, operand2 whereas Util command refers single PhraseList namely options.
You can also achieve wildcard functionality by embedding "*" in ListenFor tag.
for eg.<ListenFor>what [is] current {*}</ListenFor>, here the voice command gets recognized as long as user speaks 'what is current' followed by any phrase or word.
Note you cant nest the special characters.
Feedback: Compulsory child element for Command element, it contains text which is displayed and spoken using text to speech when command is recognized. Feedback element can contain reference to the PhraseList element but in that case every ListenFor element in the containing Command element must also reference to the same PhraseList element.
Refer following screen shot, which shows feedback element after command gets recognized.
Navigate: Compulsory child element for Command element, The Target attribute defined contains page which loads after command is recognized. If you omit Target element then app launches with default Mainpage, you can also specify query string for the page. Eg. <Navigate Target="Target.xaml?key=value"/>
PhraseList: Optional child of the CommandSet element ,It require Label value which Listenfor, Feedback element use to reference the PhraseList means those which are enclosed in curly braces. It contains Item elements each of which defines word that can be used to initiate command that references PhraseList.
Item: Optional child element of CommandSet element. It contains one or more words that can be recognized to initiate voice command.
Installing/Registering voice command definition file
Installing VCD file registers voice commands defined in the VCD file to the speech system of phone, You should install the VCD file during the first run of your application. In case your application re installs due to Phone Backup no data related to your voice commands is preserved so it is better practice to install VCD file during each time your application launches.
You can use InstalledCommandSets property of VoiceCommandService class to check existence of your voice commands.
private async void RegisterVoiceCommands()
await VoiceCommandService.InstallCommandSetsFromFileAsync( new Uri("ms-appx:///vcd.xml", UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute));
When voice command for app is recognized the target page gets launched and URI for that page contains recognized commands in the form of QueryString.
You can use OnNavaigatedTo() method to extract parameter from QueryString using NavigationContext.
If the page is launched from voice command then Query String contains voiceCommandName parameter in it.
voiceCommandName parameter is useful in case when more than one commands targets same page, in this case voiceCommandName is used to figure out which command user launched.
When application recognizes voice command then target page is launched and recognized parameters are included in query string.
OnNavigatedTo() method in target page is used to extract parameters, if application is launched from voice command then a parameter named voiceCommandName exist in query string so checking its existence is better way to identify whether page is launched from voice command.
Suppose user says "hello what is current date" then the query string for the same is:
| [0]={[voiceCommandName,Util]}
[1]={[reco,hello what is current date]}
And suppose user says "hello two plus two" then query string is
| [0]={[voiceCommandName,Calculator]}
[1]={[reco,hello 2 plus 2]}
voiceCommandName parameter contains command name.
reco parameter contains whole text which is expected command .
options, operand2, operation, operand1 contain recognized words from phrase list.
Refer following code snippet to know how to retrieve parameters from query string for above mentioned vcd file.
protected override void OnNavigatedTo(NavigationEventArgs e)
if (NavigationContext.QueryString.ContainsKey("voiceCommandName"))
string voicecommandname = NavigationContext.QueryString["voiceCommandName"];
switch (voicecommandname)
case "Util":
string options = NavigationContext.QueryString["options"];
//do something..refer attached source code for complete implementation
case "Calculator":
string number1 = NavigationContext.QueryString["operand1"];
string number2 = NavigationContext.QueryString["operand2"];
string oprator = NavigationContext.QueryString["operation"];
//do something..refer attached source code for complete implementation
catch (Exception ex)
Note switch case is used because application may have number of commands which targets same page, so it become useful to know which command user has given. In each case i mentioned do something but you can refer attached example which covers proper implementation of each voice command like showing date adding two numbers, showing current battery percentage etc.
Modify Voice Command Definition file
In most of the cases we want PhraseList's content to be populated at run time using webservice or some other source, To achieve this functionality SDK gives you ability to modify voice command definition file Below is code snippets showing how to modify VCD file.
Suppose we want to add more items to operand1 and operand2, so we just called ModifyPhraseList function twice from Button click event. refer the following code
private void Button_Click_1(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
ModifyPhraseList("MyVoiceCommands", "operand1");
ModifyPhraseList("MyVoiceCommands", "operand2");
private async void ModifyPhraseList(string commandsetname,string phraselistname)
string[] numbers = new string[]{"1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","10"};
var vcs = VoiceCommandService.InstalledCommandSets[commandsetname];
await vcs.UpdatePhraseListAsync(phraselistname, numbers);
Sample Voice Commands
Following is list of some commands which user can invoke using above VCD file, make sure that before invoking below voice commands the voice commands from VCD file must be install/register with OS.
To start recognizer hold start key from within the application or from outside the application.
- hello what is current date
- hello what is current battery percentage.
- hello two plus two.
- hello two minus two.
|hello what is current date
|current date
|PhraseList "options"
|hello two plus two
|PhraseList "operand1"
|PhraseList "operation"
|PhraseList "operand2"
Localization of voice commands
You can specify commands in voice command definition file for various languages.
You can create multiple CommandSets and set xml:lang to the language you want, to test application for particular language make sure that CommandSet language must match with language selected on phone.
How to change language on emulator/device.
- Go to the "SETTINGS"
- Select "Language+Region" , Now set the language you want for eg espanol for Spanish and restart emulator.
Suppose you want to support above commands for Spanish language also then you have to define same CommandSet for Spanish language.
Now newly created VCD file will look like as follow.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<VoiceCommands xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/voicecommands/1.0">
<CommandSet xml:lang="en-US" Name="MyVoiceCommands">
<Example>play what is current date</Example>
<Command Name="Util">
<Example> What is current time </Example>
<ListenFor> what [is] current {options}</ListenFor>
<Feedback>showing current {options}</Feedback>
<Navigate Target="Target.xaml"/>
<Command Name="Calculator">
<Example> 2 plus 3 </Example>
<ListenFor>{operand1} {operation} {operand2} </ListenFor>
<Feedback> Showing {operand1} {operation} {operand2}</Feedback>
<Navigate Target="Target.xaml"/>
<PhraseList Label="options">
<Item>battery percentage</Item>
<PhraseList Label="operation">
<PhraseList Label="operand1">
<PhraseList Label="operand2">
<CommandSet xml:lang="es-ES" Name="MyVoiceCommands">
<Example>jugar a lo que es la fecha actual</Example>
<Command Name="Util">
<Example>¿qué es la hora actual</Example>
<ListenFor>¿qué [es] corriente {options}</ListenFor>
<Feedback>mostrando actual {options}</Feedback>
<Navigate Target="Target.xaml"/>
<Command Name="Calculator">
<Example> 2 más 3 </Example>
<ListenFor>{operand1} {operation} {operand2} </ListenFor>
<Feedback> demostración {operand1} {operation} {operand2}</Feedback>
<Navigate Target="Target.xaml"/>
<PhraseList Label="options">
<Item>batería porcentaje</Item>
<PhraseList Label="operation">
<PhraseList Label="operand1">
<Item>1</Item> <!--in spanish it is pronounced as "uno"-->
<Item>2</Item> <!--in spanish it is pronounced as "dos"-->
<PhraseList Label="operand2">
<Item>1</Item> <!--in spanish it is pronounced as "uno"-->
<Item>2</Item> <!--in spanish it is pronounced as "dos"-->
Note everything in new CommandSet is same except localized text. There is no major implementation required for this newly added language, you just need to handle new PharaseList item. For eg. If user gives command "1 más 1" you have to just do the same operation as you done for "1 plus 1" for more information refer source code of attached example.
