Lunar New Year 2013
Lunar New Year 2013 takes place on Sunday, February 10. It is based on cycles of the lunar phase and for the Chinese it is also known as the 'Spring Festival'. Chinese New Year celebrations begin the evening preceding Chinese New Year's Day and provide an opportunity for families to get together for dinner. Food will include pork, duck, chicken and sweet delicacies and the family will end the night by setting off firecrackers. This year (2013) is the year of the snake.
Migrant mainland workers' happy homecoming
Two of the millions of workers who went home for the Lunar New Year holiday took our video reporter along, offering a glimpse of joy and sadness in the life of a migrant family
Lantern Festival traffic and fireworks cause smog in Beijing
Millions of migrant workers flowed back to cities on Sunday, formally marking the end of celebrations for the Lunar New Year period in China.
Lunacy of Lunar New Year travel must spur hukou reform
The Lunar New Year travel crunch this year was worse than ever. It's deeply worrying because it underlines the distortions in China's urbanisation.
Flat sales down because of holiday
Just 88 flats were sold from February 11 to 17 on the 50 major housing estates in Hong Kong monitored by agency Ricacorp Properties, down 19 per cent from 108 the previous week.
Officials chided for taking too many days off for Lunar New Year
Long holidays can sometimes be too much of a good thing – as officials from Gansu and Hunan provinces are now learning.
Travel agency rebuked for Lunar New Year hotel fiasco
The tourism watchdog on Monday rebuked a travel agency manager accused of leaving mainland tourists stranded without hotel accommodation after he claimed it had been impossible to verify whether their reserved rooms were in fact available.
Lunar holiday timing gives lift to cargo traffic
Air cargo throughput in Hong Kong grew 21.2 per cent last month year on year to 334,000 tonnes, according to the Airport Authority.
But passenger volume was down 5.1 per cent to 4.6 million mainly because the Lunar New Year fell in February, whereas last year it was in January.
Insider bears emerge ahead of Lunar New Year holiday
Directors were bearish in the run-up to the Lunar New Year, with 86 companies reporting disposals of their shares by directors worth a HK$998.6 million from January 21 to February 8.
In value terms, selling of shares by directors in the past three weeks accounted for nearly 93 per cent of total insider turnover, compared with 35 per cent for the same three-week period last year.
China Digest, February 18, 2013
Sales of consumer goods totalled 1.7 billion yuan (HK$2.09 billion) for the week-long Lunar New Year holiday in Lanzhou, a 21 per cent increase from the holiday last year, Xinhua reports, citing figures from the municipal commerce bureau.
Only time can tell what to make of this 'wicked' lot
In the annual ceremony at Sha Tin's Che Kung temple, Heung Yee Kuk chairman Lau Wong-fat drew a stick bearing the number 95. The message on the stick, loosely translated, read: "In a splendid carriage you embarked on your journey. Today, you came home barefoot. Is it that you failed the imperial examination? Or did you lose all your gold in business?"
City Digest, February 18, 2013
About 30 Civil Human Rights Front members protested outside Stanley Prison yesterday in support of activist Koo Sze-yiu, who was jailed this month for nine months for desecrating Chinese and Hong Kong flags at two separate rallies last year.
It's time for Hong Kong to make its own luck
No matter how one spins these fortune sticks at the Che Kung Temple, as Heung Yee Kuk chairman Lau Wong-fat tried to, this is one of those "rituals" we need to let go of.
Mainland Lunar New Year spending up 15 per cent
Ministry of Commerce figures show spending of 539 billion yuan (HK$665 billion) for the holiday period. Sales of groceries were up nearly 10 per cent, jewellery sales rose 38 per cent and garment sales rose more than 6 per cent, the ministry said.
Revellers in face masks setting off fireworks sparks rethink of ritual
The spectacle of Beijingers wearing face masks as they set off firecrackers in smog-choked streets at the start of the Lunar New Year led many to ask themselves a question: is the noisy custom appropriate, given the mainland's deteriorating air quality?
Shopping malls report strong retail sales for Lunar New Year holiday
Shopping malls reported an influx of customers, bringing strong sales, over the Lunar New Year but smaller shops said trade had dipped as Hongkongers tightened their belts at the start of the Year of the Snake.

Trumpet Vine - Invasive even in the north?
I've always known Trumpet Vine to be a great hummingbird attraction but terribly invasive, at least in more southerly areas. What about further north? I'm in northern Michigan, but I'd be interested in hearing from anyone with a similar climate. We are zone 5 (because I'm right on Lake Superior) but summers are short and cool. Last frost date is May 30 and it usually frosts in the fall in early October. Summer highs are normally in the high 70's though it does get much hotter on a few days. For those of you who live in the north and have Trumpet Vine, has it been invasive? Or is it not so bad with the shorter, cooler growing season?
i live in ne-sd (zone4). loved the vine, but, had to dig it up. would cling to the siding of the house, and, had shoots coming up all over the place.
if i had a spot where i could plant it and let it "do its thing", i would plant it in a heartbeat.
but, yes, very invasive (at least in my soil).
Hi, I'm in the Detroit area and it is a lovely plant, but if you plant it near a power pole, it may go crazy and take over, even in Michigan. Edison frowns upon it because it can be a problem.
My mother was a farmer south of Cadillac, and she always said the same thing as Sunlicious - Never plant it near a house or a garden you want to keep tidy. You might end up pulling it off your porch roof and from everthing else near it. It will go everywhere, even down here it is hard to control if it likes a spot. Now, if you have something ugly you want covered, and don't need to worry about it going crazy, have at it!
They do sell shorter less invasive varieties, but I'm never actually been able to keep one of them alive, and those have been planted far from anything we cared about.

One line. Ever since the Blaster worm snaked across the Internet, the security community has known that it takes but one line of vulnerable code. Heartbleed and iOS Goto Fail made the point again last year. Both were one line mistakes. Even the Bash Shellshock vulnerability was made possible by a small number of lines of code.
To manage the risk of code-level vulnerabilities, many organizations have implemented security testing in their software development lifecycle. Such testing has touch-points in the implementation, verification, and maintenance phases. For example, an organization might ...

TouchPointsby Douglas Conant, Mette Norgaard
A fresh, effective, and enduring way to lead—starting with your next interaction. Most leaders feel the inevitable interruptions in their jam-packed days are troublesome. But in TouchPoints, Conant and Norgaard argue that these—and every point of contact with other people—are overlooked opportunities for leaders to increase their impact and promote their organization's strategy and values. Through previously untold stories from Conant's tenure as CEO of Campbell Soup Company and Norgaard's vast consulting experience, the authors show that a leader's impact and legacy are built through hundreds, even thousands, of interactive moments in time. The good news is that anyone can develop "TouchPoint" mastery by focusing on three essential components: head, heart, and hands.
TouchPoints speaks to the theory and craft of leadership, promoting a balanced presence of rational, authentic, active, and wise leadership practices. Leadership mastery in the smallest and otherwise ordinary moments can transform aimless activity in individuals and entropy in organizations into focused energy—one magical moment at a time.

Talent is Never Enoughby John C. Maxwell
Read the headlines, watch the highlights, or just step out your front door: Some talented people reach their full potential, while others self-destruct or remain trapped in mediocrity. What makes the difference? Maxwell, the go-to guru for business professionals across the globe, insists that the choices people make-not merely the skills they inherit-propel them onto greatness. Among other truths, successful people know that:
It's what you add to your talent that makes the greatest difference. With authentic examples and time-tested wisdom, Maxwell shares thirteen attributes you need to maximize your potential and live the life of your dreams. You can have talent alone and fall short of your potential. Or you can have talent plus, and really stand out.

Last week at Chicago's Camp IT, I presented on IT risk management and concluded with focusing on the intersection of risk and action. This is a CIO Centric Approach that re-prioritizes risks based on an organization's constraints and IT capabilities. My Chicago talk led to several good discussions, and this article quickly summarizes the method and how you can apply it to your risk management program.
The advantage, for a security owner, is in immediately seeing which concerns, once mitigated, would produce the largest reduction in the organization's overall risk. We can then produce the annual audit phonebook with a long laundry list of recommendations.
The disadvantage, for the IT owner, is in not factoring in effort. For example, suppose one risk rated 15 takes 12 months to resolve and another takes 3 months. Yet both are listed side-by-side and prioritized equally by the security owner. The trouble stems from the risk rating exercise not bubbling up quick wins and prioritized actions.

PCI-DSS 3 requires that in-scope devices, like cash register computers or payment processing servers, accept only trusted certificates. Specifically, it states:
Protect Cardholder DataRequirement 4: Encrypt transmission of cardholder data across open, public networks4.1(b) Are only trusted keys and/or certificates accepted?
Sensitive information must be encrypted during transmission over public networks, because it is easy and common for a malicious individual to intercept and/or divert data while in transit. Secure transmission of cardholder data requires using trusted keys/certificates, a secure protocol for transport, and proper encryption strength to encrypt cardholder data. Connection requests from systems that do not support the required encryption strength, and that would result in an insecure connection, should not be accepted. Verifying that certificates are trusted (for example, have not expired and are issued from a trusted source) helps ensure the integrity of the secure connection.
So, how do you do this in Windows?
First, view the certificates of all payment processing services and document the trusted root certificate. Add to this list of trusted root certificates those that are required for Microsoft Windows to function. (This list is documented here: http://support2.microsoft.com/?id=293781). Create one master list of all certificates that should be accepted.
Second, open the local computer's certificate store. (Control Panel > All Tasks > Administrative Tools > Manage computer certificates.) Under Trusted Root Certification Authorities, expand Certificates. Delete all certificate authorities not on the previously created master list.
Third, configure the computer's Web browser to not allow the user to continue to Websites with untrusted certificates. This setting varies from browser to browser. In Internet Explorer, the settings are in Local Security Policy under:
Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Internet Control PanelPrevent ignoring certificate errors
Windows Components\Internet Explorer\Internet Control Panel\Advanced PageTurn on warn about certificate address mismatchCheck for server certificate revocation
The computer will now accept only those certificates accepted for business purposes. Any invalid certificates will stop the transaction and not allow the user to inadvertently continue. This configuration reduces the likelihood of Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, signed malware, and other attacks against certificate infrastructure. In addition, the computer's configuration is now in compliance with PCI-DSS 3's 4.1.b requirement.

The fundamental mistake companies make with data security is...
Neglecting data governance.
Many companies lack the processes, policies, and standards for protecting data throughout its lifecycle. How is new data added and classified? How are people given access, and how often is that access reviewed? Are the backups and redundancies sufficient given the type of data? How is data access monitored and reported on? Is sufficient data loss prevention in place to protect the company? And, once the data reaches its end-of-life, how is the data gracefully retired? The companies which fail to think through the long term implications of data leave themselves open to security incidents and breaches.

PVC is short for Passion, Vision, Communication (& Execution) and is a leadership podcast hosted by Ed Rojas (@EdgarR0jas) and Paul Jorgensen (@prjorgensen). I am a fan of both of their leadership styles, and was pleased that they joined us at BSides Detroit 14. (The talk Ed gave, for example, landed one guy a job and helped another guy launch his own city sec group.) Ed and Paul had me on the podcast to discuss leadership, grandparenting, my strange love of Excel, and the adhocracy that is MiSec.
They also got me singing the intro. So, there's that. Listen to the episode on iTunes or catch it here:

How Did That Happen?by Roger Connors, Tom Smith
The economy crashes, the government misfires, businesses fail, leaders don't lead, managers don't manage, and the people we count on for the results that affect our own performance don't follow through, leaving us asking, "How did that happen?" Surprises caused by a lack of personal accountability plague almost every organization today, from the political arena to every large and small business. How Did That Happen? offers a proven way to eliminate these nasty surprises, gain an unbeatable competitive edge, and enhance performance by holding others accountable in a positive, principled way.
The Definitive Druckerby Elizabeth Haas Edersheim
For sixteen months before his death, Elizabeth Haas Edersheim was given unprecedented access to Peter Drucker, widely regarded as the father of modern management. At Drucker's request, Edersheim, a respected management thinker in her own right, spoke with him about the development of modern business throughout his life-and how it continues to grow and change at an ever-increasing rate. The Definitive Drucker captures his visionary management concepts, applies them to the key business risks and opportunities of the coming decades, and imparts Drucker's views on current business practices, economic changes, and trends-many of which he first predicted decades ago. It also sheds light onto issues such as why so many leaders fail, the fragility of our economic systems, and the new role of the CEO.

Drucker on Leadershipby William A. Cohen, Ph.D.
Although Peter Drucker, "The Father of Modern Management," died in 2005, his timeless teachings are studied and practiced by forward-thinking managers worldwide. His lessons and wisdom on the topic of leadership-the central element of management-are in constant demand, yet he wrote little under that actual subject heading. In Drucker on Leadership , William A. Cohen explores Drucker's lost leadership lessons-why they are missing, what they are, why they are important, and how to apply them. As Cohen explains, Drucker was ambivalent about leadership for much of his career, making it clear that leadership was not by itself "good or desirable." While Drucker struggled with the concept of leadership, he was well aware that it had a critical impact on the accomplishment of all projects and human endeavors. There is no book from Drucker specifically dedicated to leadership, but a wealth of information about leadership can be found scattered throughout his 40 books and hundreds of articles. Drucker's teachings about leadership have saved many corporations from failure and helped guide others to outstanding success. Many of the leadership concepts revealed in this book will surprise and perhaps shock Drucker's followers. For example, who would have thought that Peter Drucker taught that "leadership is a marketing job" or that "the best leadership lessons for business or any nonprofit organization come from the military"? Written for anyone who values the insights of the man whose name is synonymous with excellence in management, Drucker on Leadership offers a deeper understanding of what makes an extraordinary leader.

Jordan Henderson has made the startling claim that Raheem Sterling is almost impossible to dispossess. The Liverpool midfielder praised his team-mate's "outstanding" performance against Italy and revealed that he often struggles to get the ball off him in training for both club and country.
Sterling's pace and direct approach caused Italy plenty of problems on Saturday, but Henderson also highlighted the winger's intelligence, as shown by his astute pass to Wayne Rooney that led to Daniel Sturridge's equaliser.
"To be honest, I don't care who's defending against him: you cannot take the ball off him," Henderson said. "It's as simple

Historical Traveler Reviews Locanda ai Bareteri Venice
Loved staying here
We stayed at Locanda ai Bareteri during the Venice Carnival. It is situated just near the Rialto bridge so it has a very central location and at this time of year many of the surrounding streets are completely mobbed. However, once you turn off into the tiny side street that has the entrance to the Bareteri in it, it is peaceful, empty and charming. We had a very friendly welcome by one of the proprietors of the Bareteri and the double rooms we had were spacious, clean and tastefully decorated - all marble and wood. At this time of year prices everywhere in Venice are high, but I think this place was very reasonable considering. We would definitely stay here again. I would also recommend the small restaurant that is opposite the hotel entrance for very friendly and helpful service and good food.
A Great Place to Stay
Simple but elegant decor. Very clean. Friendly welcome. Great value. Loved staying here. Children were made very welcome. Ai Bareteri is centrally located, so it's not quiet (although shutters block out most noise). No air condititioning, but even in July this was not a problem - fans were sufficient. Highly recommend.
Did not honor our reservations-- had reserved the hotel last Feb
We've stayed at this hotel several years. We reserved 4 rms in Feb 2005 for Feb 2006. We contacted them in March saying we'd take all the rms for a group of 32 people. We wrote in May and June--restating this-- there was no reply. Then when we wrote to submit a list of guests we were told not only did we not have rms for the 32 people, but our rms which had been reserved in Febr. had been given away as well.
Pleasant Place to Stay
An excellent location to explore Venice. A few minutes from St. Marks Square and the Rialto Bridge. We were on the 5th floor. No lift. We were ok but could be a problem for some people. Room clean with some interesting furniture. No hair dryer. Basic continental breakfast. But it was served on a plate. Service was fine and I was given a hand with my luggage. We were given a map and a short introduction about travelling around Venice, which was helpful. Water and soft drinks expensive around the area of the hotel but a short walk over the bridge it was much better. We did find a supermarket which was even better. Plenty of places to eat. We would stay again.
Rare Find!
What a find! Location that can't be beaten - half way between St. Marks & Rialto Bridge, friendly staff, clean rooms.
Claudio and Sergio were great; very helpful with information, restaurant recommendations and maps. (For delicious seafood go to Acqua Pazza.)
Breakfast is nothing special, certainly not like a B&B in the US. One thing they need to improve on- wipe the walls of dead mosquitos before the next guest arrives. We found our room with a few bloody dead mosquitos on the walls and I think they should be wiped off, even the walls touched up with white paint before the next guest arrives. Otherwise, it was lovely.
The price was right- we paid 80 Euro for Sat-Tues in July for a room with private bath and AC.
Simple, clean and conveniently central accomodation.....
We found the Locanda ai Bareteri on the internet whilst searching for accomodation for our first trip to Italy in early April 2005.
First things first-location. Venice is a myriad of tiny side streets and alleyways. If you travel to Venice airport (Marco Polo) you can either get the no 5 local bus to Piazza Roma then a waterbus to Rialto or San Marco OR get the ATVO airport link bus. If you're a first time visitor, like us, it might be more interesting to get the Alilaguna water bus from the airport to San Marco which takes about an hour and costs e10. The journey provides a gentle introduction to your stay in Venice. A curious thing about the Alilaguna stop at the airport is the way that the locals just breeze past the rest of us and get on the water bus. This might be construed as incredible bad manners on their part but then we must make allowances for the way the hordes of tourists clutter up their city and otherwise obstruct their day to day progress and existence.
Directions to Ai Bareteri from San Marco-from the waterfront cross the square directly with the Bascilica to your right and the Campanile to your left. Go through the passageway which is directly underneath the clocktower (When we visited it was being renovated and was draped in a white cover with the Eiffel tower picture on it!). This street is called Mercerie or something similar!. Follow this street until it ends and you will then turn right. Follow the small passageway and bear left. There is a Cartier store on this corner.There are yellow signs directing you to Rialto. Carry on up this passage and you will reach the bridge at pont de Bareteri. Look to your right and you will see a sign saying Sotoportego de acqua or similar. Go under the covered passageway to the right where the Gondolas park then take an immediate left into the Calle de Mezzo. Ai Bareteri is to your left.
We paid e480 for three nights in a double room with en-suite bathroom. This may be considered a little on the high side for a room/hotel of this type. The room was simply furnished but scrupulously clean and pleasant with two large windows overlooking the street outside. The owner was very welcoming and provided lots of useful information for us. The room also had a mini bar and air conditioning. I did not notice a lift in the building.
A buffet breakfast was served in the small dining room every morning consisting of tasty warm croissants, various breads, fruit juice, yoghurts, coffee etc. Just enough to get you started for the day.
I have read many travel reports about Venice and often they say things like, keep away from the tourist areas or don't go where the tourists go. This seems to suggest that tourists are second class citizens but, in my view, unless you live there you are a tourist and there is nothing wrong with that. A good tourist will enjoy all that the country has to offer whilst giving something to the locals (i.e income/jobs) and making minimal impact otherwise. I am no expert on Venice but some useful tips are;
From the UK ---- now fly to Venice.
Avoid restaurants that display "Tourist menu". Tourists deserve the same respect and service as everyone else and so should not be marginalized in this way.
Venice is expensive for eating. Use the sandwich shops that can be found in various places. You will read in guides that you should not sit down to eat in such places as it is very expensive. What rubbish. We used one just near the Rialto water bus stop and lunch time snacks of two large and tasty hot sandwiches and two coffees at a table with very efficient service could be had for e15 which isn't bad value.
Restaurants can be expensive and as stated, avoid the ones near San Marco with the dreaded "Menu Touristico". Across from Ai Bareteri is Al Gazzettino, a small trattoria with a very pleasant atmosphere and equally pleasant, helpful and friendly staff. Pay no heed to the displayed menu for when you enter the waiter will simply ask you what you would like to eat and then reel off a long list of what is on offer. The quality is excellent and the prices are reasonable for Venice. You are advised to book as the place is on the small side.
algazzettino has its own website, do a search..
Incidentally, they also have a small hotel beside the restaurant.
Transport, don't be conned into going on tourist trips to Murano. Just jump on the ACTV waterbus at San Marco. Incidentally, you can buy 24hour tickets for the ACTV waterbuses for e10 so you could span two days with one ticket eg noon til noon.
Entry fees to attractions we visited, Campanile e6 well worth a visit on a fine day for the view alone, Doges palace, e11 I think again well worth it, the Basilica is free entry to the main body of the building with fees charged for certain other sections.
Of course there are many more attractions. If you don't want to splash out on a Gondola then take a crossing of the Grand Canal on a Traghetti as used by the locals. They are situated at various points on the Grand Canal and a crossing is 50 cents.
A visit to the fruit and fish market in the morning (just across the Rialto bridge) is well worth a visit just to see what we should be eating instead of the rubbish we are forcefed by the supermarkets in the UK.
Also after your evening meal you can take a stroll in the piazza San Marco and listen or perhaps dance to the orchestra which play outside the more expensive restaurants.
If visiting between November and early April, check for aqua alta (high tide !) as this may otherwise be an unwelcome surprise for your visit !
Great location and value for money
Just got back from a short stay at this great little hotel/B&B. The owner is welcoming, friendly and helpful.
The room just right - simple, spacious, immaculately clean and really warm to get back to (early March and there was still snow outside!) 3 nights for only �200 - terrific value considering the location. Only a few minutes from San Marco and the Rialto, with a picturesque little canal just a few yards away at the end of the alley.
We'll certainly be returning.
Fine hotel, excellent value
The Locanda ai Bareteri (note it's misspelled with two T's in its listing here) is a fine value. The location, midway between Rialto Bridge and San Marco Square, is ideal, but it sits on a quiet, almost forgotten "middle" alley, so you'll need a bit of luck or good directions to find it.
Our room during the last week in August was only 90 euros per night, which is a deal in Venice. All the rooms are non-smoking, and ours (and presumably all of them) have been recently remodeled. The room was spotless and comfortable, of a good size, with a private modern bath and a tiny balcony overlooking the "street" below.
The service is good and very friendly, and the included breakfast is adequate. A lot of stairs to navigate.
We would certainly stay here again. Being able to step out the front door and be at the Grand Canal or the Square or window shopping within a minute was a great attraction for us. Hard to beat for 90 euro/night.
