As a SaaS provider, we rely on outside vendors for our infrastructure. Whether it be a cloud, co-lo, CDN or in-house platforms we've tried many with varying degrees of success and had to replace major components from time to time. Here are our top 5 tips based on what we've learned:
Topics: Technology, General
A few months back, the highly publicized pictures of Kim Kardashian where touted to "break the internet". Well, we all know as bizarre and self-serving as the publicity stunt was, it really broke nothing except some eyeballs. However, 4K video on the other hand, just might.
Topics: Technology, General
A-holes. We all know one and unfortunately, we've all worked with one.
It's important to know the difference between an actual A-hole vs. a one-off case of word vomit from someone who is having a bad day. So how can one determine if the person in the next cubicle is indeed, bonafide A-hole material?
Lucky for us, the peeps at HubSpot have it all figured out with a nifty, foolproof flowchart that takes us from the offending incident to the resulting inappropriate response, plus top tips for diffusing the A-hole situation in no time flat. We think it's pretty genius.
Topics: Humor
As a tech company, Silicon Valley is on the top of our watch list. With its raunchy humor, candid look at tech giants and assessment of the startup game, it's truly priceless viewing. If you have not seen it (and are not easily offended) you should. It's a show that's binge-watch-worthy.
It's that time of year again! The Cannes Lions Advertising Festival is right around the corner and as a six-year Cannes veteran, I feel it is my civic duty to pass on lessons learned, along with other insightful information to help onboard newbies and enlighten crafty veterans on how to make the most of their week in the South of France.
Topics: Cannes Lions
Ready for some insider tips? Below are the top five hacks that Executive Producers and Sales Reps can implement right now to bolster sales and increase production workflow with Simian.
Recently Chrome discontinued support of the Apple Quicktime plug-in. While the internet at large didn't even blink, business users - in particular video centric businesses - experienced considerable heartburn over the issue. I read a statistic that stated less than 2.5% of the sites on the web used the quicktime plug-in. Ok, that seems plausible but is that an accurate or qualified measurement? Drilling into that statistic reveals that those 2.5% happened to be the video content producers. Apple's format of choice and the most popular internal format of vast number of video content producers is still MOV. Furthermore, "sites on the web" doesn't account for the countless MAM and DAM systems that have relied on the QT plug-in as it's been an internet staple for over a decade.
Topics: Business
So here we go, the first post on our new blog. Here at Simian we have lots of ideas. We're like an idea factory that manufactures and dismisses far more ideas than we will ever use, because it keeps things interesting. Sometimes, the ideas we dismiss are great in theory but, our pragmatic approach to product design and technology, dictates that we pull back a bit until an idea is truly worth pursuing. Sure, building a time machine is a great idea, but the practicality of it just doesn't pass our "doable" and "can do it better than anyone else" test.

Single nucleotide polymorphism-based genome-wide linkage analysis in Japanese atopic dermatitis families

BMC Dermatology 2007, 7:5 doi:10.1186/1471-5945-7-5Published: 28 September 2007
Atopic dermatitis develops as a result of complex interactions between several genetic and environmental factors. To date, 4 genome-wide linkage studies of atopic dermatitis have been performed in Caucasian populations, however, similar studies have not been done in Asian populations. The aim of this study was to identify chromosome regions linked to atopic dermatitis in a Japanese population.
We used a high-density, single nucleotide polymorphism genotyping assay, the Illumina BeadArray Linkage Mapping Panel (version 4) comprising 5,861 single nucleotide polymorphisms, to perform a genome-wide linkage analysis of 77 Japanese families with 111 affected sib-pairs with atopic dermatitis.
We found suggestive evidence for linkage with 15q21 (LOD = 2.01, NPL = 2.87, P = .0012) and weak linkage to 1q24 (LOD = 1.26, NPL = 2.44, P = .008).
We report the first genome-wide linkage study of atopic dermatitis in an Asian population, and novel loci on chromosomes 15q21 and 1q24 linked to atopic dermatitis. Identification of novel causative genes for atopic dermatitis will advance our understanding of the pathogenesis of atopic dermatitis.

Easter Weekend 2015
We had a pretty great Easter weekend, and I hope all of you did as well.
I had off from work on Friday, so my weekend with the kids started a day early (Michael still had to work). We had awesome spring weather (finally!) on Thursday and Friday, which meant that we spent a lot [...]
Christmas 2014
We had a wonderful Christmas, and I hope all of you who celebrate did as well. Every year is great, of course, but with both of the girls a little bit older this year, it seemed to be even more special than before.
The lead-up to Christmas was just as busy as the holiday itself. [...]
The Start of Summer
Perfection. It's the one word to describe our Memorial Day weekend.
I think most of the Northeast had the sunny, warm, gorgeous weather that we had, right from the moment we woke up on Saturday morning to the time we went to bed on Monday night. It made for a wonderful "unofficial start" to the [...]
Mother's Day 2014
Ah, Mother's Day. It was such a nice day all around.
Michael and the girls (OK, the effort was pretty much all Michael's) did a few things that made the day a little more special than usual. First, Michael got up at the crack of dawn (literally) and went to Wegmans to get muffins and [...]
Meet Virginia
We took a quick trip down to visit my dad in Virginia last weekend. It was much too short, particularly when you consider the 8.5-hour drives to and from… with two kids.
Truth be told, the girls did great. But we drove down on Friday and came back on Monday, which gave us only two [...]
AboutI'm Heather. I'm 32 and have been married to Michael for six years. Together, we have two beautiful little girls we love more than anything, and a miniature dachshund who drives us crazy. I'm a full-time working mom who has very little time for my own "stuff" these days, like home improvement, cooking/baking, cake decorating, and photography. Despite the team not making the playoffs since 1999, I'm STILL a Buffalo Bills fan, which I think speaks to my loyalty AND sense of humor. I can't wait to pick up the pace with travel again some day... you know, when we're done being ruled by tiny fists. Welcome to my blog.

Bryn Mawr Bank Corp. acquires Rosemont, Pa.-based Robert J. McAllister Agency.
The Royal Bank of Scotland Group launched a second public offering to sell its majority stake in Citizens Financial Group.
Bryn Mawr Bank Corp. and Univest Corp. closed major acquisitions while The Bancorp sold a large chunk of its commercial lending portfolio.
Banking industry observers expect the pace of M&As to continue to pick up this year.
After 14 years at the helm of Bryn Mawr Bank Corp., Chairman and CEO Ted Peters will retire at the end of the year and shift his focus.
Increased M&A activity, management changes, shifts in retail strategy and continued strict regulatory oversight topped the list of big news at local banks this year.
A day after agreeing to acquire Susquehanna Bancshares, BB&T's president says his bank wants to become one of the five largest banks in the Philadelphia region. Susquehanna's CEO explains its reasons for selling.
Britt Murdoch will succeed retiring Ted Peters as chairman in January as the bank splits its chairman and CEO functions.
Two Pittsburgh-area institutions among top candidates to buy, according to new analysis.
The acquisitive Bryn Mawr Bank Corp. bought its first insurance brokerage, expanding a fee income business line that has grown previously through organic means.
Most local banks reported second-quarter earnings over the past two weeks and analysts have said the results offer a mixed bag.
Looking back at the biggest stories in the beats I cover — financial services, law and now media — and what to expect moving forward.
The first half of the year wound down with the region's third announced bank merger.

Thomas L. Ingham
unknown - February 20, 2013
Thomas L. Ingham, 89, of Baldwinsville and Murray Isle, Thousand Islands, N.Y., went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, Feb. 20, 2013, where he was reunited with his wife, Doris after a long illness. He was born on Aug. 9, 1923, to the late Thomas and Edith (Daggett) Ingham in Vine Valley, N.Y. His wife of 65 years, Doris Jones Ingham passed away on Aug. 16, 2012. Thomas was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather and friend.
Thomas was a WWII veteran of the U.S. Air Force. He was a member of the First Baptist Church of Baldwinsville for 50 years serving many of those years on the board of trustees and finance committee. He was a loving and generous person who volunteered at the Syracuse Home and Meals on Wheels. Thomas retired with a distinguished career from Gulf Oil Corp in 1982.
Thomas is survived by his children, Cathy L. (Dr. Lawrence) Peltz of Santa Rosa, California, Pamela J. (Dr. Douglas) Cooper of Angwin, California, Nancy I. (Jason) White of Baldwinsville, N.Y. and Cynthia A. (Len) Woods of Baldwinsville, N.Y; eight grandchildren, Jennifer (Bill) Barrois, Dr. Aaron (Laura) Peltz, Cory Peltz, Vanessa Cooper, Danny Cooper, Kathryn Hess, Sean (Alison) Woods and Taylor Woods; four great-grandchildren, Shelby Barrois, Evan Peltz, Lily Peltz and Owen Woods; his brother, Richard E. Ingham; and many nieces, nephews and cousins. His parents; a sister, Josephine Ingham; and sister Leona I. Seth precede him in death.
The family would like to thank all the caregivers for the time, attention and love given to Thomas. Many thanks, as well, to the caring and loving neighbors and friends at McHarrie Towne.
A private committal grave-side service for family and friends will be held in Riverview Cemetery in the spring. Donations may be made to the First Baptist Church, Memorial Fund, 22 Syracuse St., Baldwinsville, N.Y. 13027 or Hospice of CNY.

I am storing objects in Google Cloud Storage through the Blobstore API. When it comes time to delete an object, I use:
key = blobstore.create_gs_key(gs_object_name)
This deletes the object from Google Cloud Storage, but when I look at Blob Viewer in the App Engine Dashboard site it appears that entries still exist in the Blobstore for each of the objects. When I click on any of the orphans the preview section of the page shows: "Error: Server Error"
Should I delete them using another method?

I like writing programs which make life easier. Given a lot of similar files or a few gigabytes of data, to write a little Perl script to parse them all in seconds is a kind of task I really enjoy doing. While being my favorite programming language, Perl is, of course, not the only one I know. Just like any person pretending to be a good software engineer I can (and like to) write in C, and I used to write some code in C++ (need to say here that I don't like the style of coding when the whole program consists of definitions of various small classes and overloading various methods). I understand and like functional programming (e.g. Lisp and Haskell), and I like using map, reduce and filter concepts in other languages. I'm not a web programmer, that means that I won't apply for any PHP job or, in general, for a job requiring to create web sites. But I used to develop simple web services (Perl CGI scripts, small sites in PHP) and I understand how HTTP works. That means that I can act both as a web browser using telnet and as a web server using netcat and I don't panic when I see Internal Server Error. The last web-related thing I looked at was Node.js; I liked the idea and wrote a few hundred lines of code to see how it works. Just to list some more technologies: I used to create TCP/IP client and server programs in C and Perl both in Linux and Windows; I spent a few evenings developing a compiler and virtual machine for myself just to understand how all this stuff works; I know how to work with databases (just to list some: MySQL, MSSQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite), SQL queries, and stored procedures. I was a member of the ACM team of Novosibirsk university (our best result was to reach world semi-finals) and I spent nine years teaching students how to write programs so I understand most of the 'standard' algorithms: searching and sorting, graphs problems, etc., and can explain them if needed.

I can't give this game 3.5 so I have to give it 4 out of 5
Tomb Raider is an alright game. In fact, in many ways, it's pretty good. But for everything it does right, it does something a little wrong, and the main impression the game leaves is one of "Imagine what it could have been".
This is a reboot for the entire series, setting up Lara Croft as a recently graduated archaeologist on an expedition to find the ruins of a mystical island civilization off the coast of Japan. On approach to the mystical island located in the "Dragon's Triangle", the ship becomes hammered with a severe storm that breaks it in two, and leaves Lara, her friends, and the ship's crew stranded on the island. Very quickly, however, it is made apparent that they are not alone, with fierce and somewhat deranged island inhabitants kidnapping and killing crew members. Lara must survive the environment, fight off island baddies, find her friends and uncover the mysteries of the island.
The story is reasonably well written, for an action game. While it certainly won't win any prizes, it generally does the job of moving the action forward, giving the player a reason for doing what they are doing. It's told in a straight-forward manner, with few twists or surprises, but it does have a bit of character and drama. The dialog is reasonable, but nothing very special. The characters are mostly stereotypes - the grizzled Irishman, the wise-and-spiritual Maori, the sassy blackwoman, the nerdy IT guy and the arrogant and unpleasant rival archaeologist - but they're voiced reasonably well and none of their dialogue stands out as particularly bad (or good).
As for Lara herself, the new Lara's backstory shares some elements with the old Lara's - adventurer father, love of archaeology - but we are encouraged to think of this character as a fresh start, with this as her first adventure. Her character does develop over the course of the game's events, with Lara starting out as an inexperienced adventurer who has to come to grips with killing a deer, to becoming a capable killer and explorer.
Overall, a decent story, but one that sort of lacks emotion and pull. None of the characters are particularly interesting, none of the events terribly exciting.
This game combines a mixture of combat and environmental traversal, in a manner that is similar to the Uncharted games. However, unlike those games, Tomb Raider doesn't really incorporate elements of traversal with the combat. In Uncharted, how Nathan traversed the environment was essential to the way he handled enemies, having to scramble to higher ground, pulling enemies off cliffs and so forth. Tomb Raider has very clear combat sections, where Lara mostly hides behind crates while enemies shoot at her, and very clear exploration sections, where there is no combat at all and Lara climbs and jumps and rolls much in the same way as Nathan... except with less fluidity. But hey, it's her first adventure, so you can forgive her for not being quite as ludicrously dexterous as Drake. Like the uncharted games, combat involves regenerating health and cover mechanics, except that Lara will automatically go into cover whenever enemies are near as long as the player walks her up to a wall or a ledge - no button pushing needed, and this is actually a great change. Lara does not "stick" to cover - but her stance will indicate when she is in cover or not in cover, and this allows the player to rapidly move from cover to cover very quickly by simply moving Lara from side to side.
The Combat is, however, mostly quite dull. Lara starts off the game with the best weapon - the bow. Enemies never have very much health and will either stick behind cover and very slowly poke their heads out, or do a slow, suicidal "charge" towards Lara's position. The environments also give Lara a lot of room to merely retreat from the enemies if things are too hectic. The game also only sends very few enemies to fight you at any one time, and their accuracy is generally pretty terrible. As the game progresses, the enemies start to behave more aggressively, throwing grenades or bringing shields and body armor to the fight, but the game never really is difficult or even very challenging in any way. I suppose I should be grateful - if there is one thing I didn't like about Uncharted, it was how unforgiving that game could be.
There are a few forced stealth sections, but usually these are quite easy to get through and you can fight your way out of most of them. One huge issue with the gameplay however, is the QTEs. Tomb Raider is rife with QTEs - and they are terrible, especially if you are playing this game on the PC with an nVidia graphics card. For some reason, some nVidia cards will fail to display the proper symbols during the QTEs, resulting in the player not knowing which button to press. When the symbols are, on occasion, displayed, the game sometimes doesn't tell you which button goes with the symbol, leaving me to literally having to guess which button to press in order to survive. I died over 30 times on the first QTE, because it didn't display any symbol or prompt due to graphical errors. I was not happy. Even when the QTEs display properly, the timing required of the player varies. Some QTEs allow you to press the required button immediately - others require more precise timing and the game does not tell you which is which.
As the game progresses, Lara will unlock new abilities and weapons which can make killing enemies easier. It also gives incentive for the player to backtrack to earlier parts of the game in order to use new abilities to reach previous inaccessible areas. New Equipment and Traversal abilities are unlocked purely as the story progresses, but new combat and weapon upgrades are unlocked by scavenging the environment and the corpses of animals and enemies. The exploration mechanics generally work well, with Lara being able to explore quite wide and diverse environments that hold a wealth of secrets.
On the PC, this game looks good and sounds decent. While not having the stunningly diverse vistas of Uncharted, Tomb Raider does have a very well realized Island environment that is both beautiful and somber. There are more than a few sweeping panoramic shots and good uses of lighting in the game to keep the eyes pleased. Character models and animations are top-notch as well. The voice acting is decent, even if the lines are not quite up to snuff.
Wow, looking back at what I just wrote, it seems that I've been pretty harsh on Tomb Raider. I suppose I was expecting more. But what is there isn't bad. The gameplay is functional, the environments are gorgeous, and the story is reasonable. It also lasts a decent amount of time, and has some clever backtracking mechanics and incentives. For a first game in what will no doubt be a long series, it's pretty good. I think the Tomb Raider franchise can develop into a spectacular series, as long as they apply a bit more polish next time around.
Remember, the first Uncharted Game wasn't that great either.

Comments from Gene Harris
I recently purchased a 7 port Ankar powered USB Hub. All was fine with my original layout, but yesterday, I decide to layout my devices to reduce clutter. Just after completing the rearrangement of devices on my desktop, I started having trouble with my WiFi dropping and then not being able to reconnect. Shortly thereafter, my Apple Magic Mouse began disconnecting.
I dutifully shutdown my Mini, disconnected all the devices, ran hardware diagnostics, booted in single user mode, cleared the SMC, etc. Could not find any problems. Mac booted properly, mouse worked properly, WiFi connected. What the heck was going on? I changed out my Crucial memory with the original Apple memory. The Mac with no devices was working properly.
I started reattaching devices, first connecting the Ankar hub, then external drives, Apple Superdrive, etc. Boom! WiFi went flakey. While turning off the WiFi, my Magic Mouse disconnected. Rebooting gave me a completely blank screen with only a mouse cursor. Things appeared to be going down hill quickly and I was not happy, because I had planned to put 20 or 30 miles on my bike in the sunshine.
So I stripped down the Mini again. Turned off the magic mouse. Plugged in a USB mouse. Plugged in a wired network cable. Booted. Managed to log in. Turned off WiFi on the Mini. Turned on the Magic Mouse. It connected properly. Unplugged the USB Mouse. Started plugging in devices. Everything continued to work. Left the WiFi off. Rebooted. The Mini came up and I could log on just fine with the wired network cable. Decided not to tempt fate and left the WiFi turned off.
My (incomplete and unsubstantiated) conclusion was that rearranging the Mini, with all the USB devices sitting close by on the Ankar hub was causing interference with all of the wireless devices I was using. Since the Mini is not really portable, I decided to leave the network cable plugged in and turn off the WiFi. However, I'm not super happy about this, because the Mac no longer syncs with my iPhone over WiFi.
I'll settle in with this setup for a while, until I can figure out what to do with all of my USB devices.

I've been using a MacBook Pro at work for some time. It's an 8 MB i7 with a 750 GB hard drive. It's not one of the new Retina's, but it's definitely a nice laptop. I decided to purchase a Mac for my home. I'm not in the mood to spend $2500 for a 15" MacBook Pro. No doubt it's a great machine, but I just want something to dink around with. I ended up deciding on a Mac mini. I purchased a 3 Ghz i7. I upgraded the RAM to 16 GB. I've been really pleased with how well this little box works. The software is very well thought out. I purchased Parallels for OS X and installed Windows 8. It's really nice to be able to work on Windows (specifically Visual Studio 2013) and X Code at the same time. I didn't imagine loading up the Windows machine, but I am constantly adding new developer functionality, specifically SQL Server 2014 and IIS in a spiffy new VM with Windows Server 2012 R2. It's very cool and with 16 GB, I have enough RAM to run both machines simultaneously. It's not like having dedicated hardware, but it is good enough for my needs.
I'll continue to post as I discover new uses for my Mac. I'm already hooked on iPhoto, but I understand that's probably going away. However, the auto import and faces functionality is really nice.

I have a small home network that I use for hobbyist programming and R & D on new (to me) technologies. I lost one of my servers (which also acted as a backup domain controller) a couple of days ago. There was no real content on the server that I needed to save, and fortunately, the disk drive is OK, it's the motherboard that went out.
I'm debating about continuing to maintain this home network. It's constantly an issue in terms of maintenance. If the internal DNS server goes down, my wife gets mad. If the print server starts acting up, my wife gets mad at me. I'm working with really old hardware, which could go out at any moment. You get the picture...
So, I'm debating about just shutting down the home network, removing the two workstations I have from the domain, and going back to being an average hobbyist. I primarily need access to a SQL Server and an IIS Server. I have a couple of options. I can use the services on WinHost as my primary environment. I also have an MSDN account through my company that allows me to set up sophisticated environments for development. In other words, I have the capability to continue developing, while simplifying my life.
I'll think on this a little more and hopefully get some things implemented over the weekend.

I find I'm posting snarky little comments on Twitter as opposed to composing interesting content on my blog. I'm allowing my bad habits on Twitter to interfere with the development of meaningful content, which users may utilize to solve their own problems or advance their knowledge.
I'm going to attempt to change this by foregoing most of my useless Twitter posts, and spending some time actually developing real content. Hopefully, the search engines will do the rest.
As for Twitter, I'll try to limit myself to posting links to content I find around the internet, or content I develop.
If you ever get the error: "Update-AzureVM : BadRequest: The value for parameter 'SubnetNames' is null or empty.", do not fret. The fix is simple. The VM that you are trying to assign a static IP does not exist in the subnet you are trying to assign it too. I ended up deleting and recreating the server, making sure I used the "Gallery" and not the "Quick" creation option. Then, ensure you create the VM in your private network.
This blog represents my personal hobby, observations and views. It does not represent the views of my employer, clients, especially my wife, children, in-laws, clergy, the dog, the cat or my daughter's horse. In fact, I am not even sure it represents my views when I take the time to reread postings. So, take most of what I say with a grain of salt.

In fact, there were lots of weird things in this that I had no understanding of. I like how you're doing something different. The music is quite nice too. I don't know what the period means. Then again, I don't know what any of this means.

Sangiovese is a red wine grape that originated in Tuscany. It is the primary grape in Chianti and Vin Nobile D' Montipulciano and is also the only grape allowed in Brunello. It is the most planted grape variety in Italy. Planting it is increasingly popular in other countries.
Wines made from Sangiovese tend to have a medium bright red color. The flavor and aroma of cherries is a hallmark of the grape. Styles range from bright and acidic thirst quenching wines to some very big and complex ones. It is popular to blend it either with other Italian varieties as in Vin Nobile and many Chianti's or with Cabernet Sauvignon. It is the latter idea that helped set off the whole "Super Tuscan" movement.
Most Sangiovese based wines are very food friendly, going well with everything from roast chicken to spaghetti with meat sauce. They make excellent wines to go with a snack of salami or cheese such as you get at many wine bars.
In addition to the Tuscan ones, I have enjoyed some very good ones from Umbria and a real liking for Rosso Conero's from the Marche. There also are some very nice varietal labeled ones being made in the Dry Creek Valley area of Sonoma, California.
This post starts a new feature were I pick a grape variety and explain a bit about its history, characteristics and most frequent use. There are over 1,800 varieties of grapes so I shouldn't have a problem keeping this one going.
Chardonnay is a white grape that originated in Burgundy, France. Now Chardonnay is the most widely planted wine grape in the world. It is the premier white gape in California and Australia, so much so that many people don't realize that it is a French grape.
This is easy to understand. Chardonnay is an easy to grow grape but it is sensitive to where it is grown. Being so popular, it also gets handled in a lot of different ways. It can be hard to wrap your head around the vast number of different styles of Chardonnay. Here are some general guidelines that can help.
Chardonnay grapes grown in warmer climates, such as most of Australia and California, tend to ripen earlier and have higher sugar content. This translates in the bottle to having more fruit flavors and higher alcohol. The aroma is frequently of tropical fruit such as oranges, pineapple, or even bananas. Some producers, particularly in Australia, tend to make Chardonnay's that have a bit of sweetness to them. California ones are more likely than not pretty dry.
In cooler climates such as Burgundy or the Pacific north-west tend to make Chardonnay's that are less fruity and have more mineral flavors. The aroma tends to smell like flower, mushrooms or cheeses (in a good way).
The way the grapes are made into wine can make a big difference too. There are two major technique decisions a wine maker has with Chardonnay. The first is whether to allow malolactic fermentation. See http://thewinepopulist.com/?p=23 for a discussion of malolactic fermentation. Chardonnays that have undergone it tend to be big, buttery and very smooth. Wines that haven't tend to have a bit more acidity and be more refreshing. Almost all Australian Chardonnay has undergone malolactic fermentation. Chablis is a classic example of wines that have not.
The second decision is whether to age the wine in oak or not. See http://thewinepopulist.com/?p=225 for a discussion of the practice of aging wine in oak. Oak tends to have a strong impact on Chardonnay. Higher alcohol wines tend to handle oak better than lighter wines. Thus oaked styles of Chardonnay are popular to make in warmer wine growing regions. Once again, almost all Australian and California Chardonnays have been aged in contact with oak. Most French ones have too, but usually less aggressively. There is a growing trend to age Chablis in oak but many are not.
A final word on blending: With the notable exception of Champagne and other sparkling wines, it is not common to blend Chardonnay. It is such a characterful grape that it tends to stand best on its own.
Barbera is a red wine grape from Piedmont in Italy. It used to be the most commonly planted grape variety in Italy until it was surpassed by Sangiovese. In most of Italy it turns out ordinary wines but in the Alba and Asti regions it can make something special.
This fortnight's wine is an example. Barbara is a curious grape in that unlike almost all other red wine varieties it has very little tannin. Some makers age Barbara in oak to give it some tannin. This can be problematic. I usually am not a fan of oak aged Barbara. When done right, as in this case, it gives not just tannin but some extra finesse and structure to the wine. The wine has some nice fruity flavors which are balanced by the natural acidity as well as the tannins from the oak. This makes it a bigger and more complex wine.
Most Barbera's are food friendly wines and this one is no exception. It would go well with pizza or pasta but also has the oomph to hold up to red meat dishes like lamb or steak. I would particularly enjoy it with a grilled veal chop.
At under $15 a bottle it is a real bargain. Enjoy.
Over the last few years there have been a number of stories about wine collectors being ripped off by forgeries. Here is a new one. http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/12/12/federal-prosecutors-dealer-passed-off-fake-laboratory-wine-to-drive-up-auction-prices/
As many of the wines that have been involved in these scandals have been of doubtful drink ability even if authentic, the obvious solution is to buy wine to drink, not as a collectible. If you want to be a collector get into stamps or hummel figurines.
You may think this is taking populism to far but I liked this one. So how did it happen? I recently attended a tasting of affordable Bordeaux wines. Most were reasonably well made but unexciting. There were a few good ones though and one of them was a box wine, Chateau Tassin, 2009, from Wineberry Importers.
It is a typical Bordeaux blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc. It had a nice level of acidity but had typical Merlot smoothness, some good berry and black current flavors from the Cabernet Sauvignon, and some spiciness from the Cabernet Franc. Was it a wine to lay down and bring out for special occasions? No, but it would make an excellent house red and would work well for a party too. Being a box wine you would not have to worry about oxidation. Just have a glass when you want.
This wine has not yet been released but it should be any day now. Other Wineberry box wines cost around $40 for three liters. Enjoy.
OK, I know it's been a lot more than a fortnight since the last wine review. This one may have been worth waiting for.
Arneis is a white grape from Piedmont in Italy. Piedmont is a region most known for its red wines such as Barolo, Barbera etc. The Roero is a range of hills a bit north of the most famous areas where Barolo and Barbaresco are made. Barbera and Dolcetto are the most well know grapes from the area.
Until about twenty years ago virtually no one made wine from Arneis. The gape plants were used somewhat like a canary in coal mine. They were more susceptible to pests and diseases than the red grape plants of the area. If the Arneis had problems, the farmer knew to keep an eye on the other plants and could take prophylactic measures.
Starting in the 1980's, and really taking off at the start of the oughts, the grape found favor. This makes sense as good white wines are not common in the area. Arneis breaks from the typical mold of Italian whites, which are high acid and low on aroma. It also tends to have a bigger body than your typical Italian white.
This is the first wine I have had from Pace and it was a nice example, with flavors of pear and a bit of peach backed by a good structure and a long mineral finish. The aroma was mildly floral and reminded me of orange flowers and honeysuckle. While not as acidic as many Italian whites, it still is very food friendly. It would work well with most poultry dishes and any but the lightest of seafoods. My wife observed that it was a white wine you could serve to people who don't usually like whites and they would still enjoy it. At just under $20 a bottle, it was about average for an Arneis. Enjoy.
Several articles (including this one http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/10/31/drink-it-while-you-can-study-points-to-looming-global-wine-shortage/) have been touting a report of an upcoming wine shortage. According to the study, demand out stripped supply last year by 300 million cases.
Funny I have not noticed wine rationing or odd even day policies on when you could by wine. Wine prices have gone up slightly in the past few years but no more than most things. Its true that demand for the very top end Bordeaux and Burgundy wines have gotten astronomical, but for the every day wine drinker the picture is pretty rosy. So let others panic and enjoy a glass of wine.
Varietal wines are simply wines that are named for the grape principal grape variety used to make it. Some varietal wines are made 100% from the grape named on the label. Varietal wines made in the US must be made from at least 75% of the named grapes. Regulations in other places range from 100% on down to nothing.
There is nothing wrong with blending grape varieties. Many of the world's greatest wine are made from blends. While some grapes such as Chardonnay and Pinot Noir work very well on their own, they both blend well and others such as Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache tend to be better blended. There are of course always exceptions.
Varietal names became popular in the US in the 1970's and 1980's. The consumption of bottled wines was exploding bringing many new people to the pleasure of a good glass of wine. Varietal names made things easier. Rather than having to know a huge number of wines named for their place of origin, one could just ask for a Chardonnay or a Cabernet Sauvignon. These two varietal wines became so ubiquitous that some wines list had what they called "ABC" wines, anything but Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon.
Predictably, the fashion for varietal wines faded. In part this was a reaction to the exploitation of the big names, like Chardonnay, by less quality oriented producers. Also wine drinkers and some producers were becoming more sophisticated, discovering the multitude of grape varieties as well as the benefits of a good blend. Things seem to be a good balance now with a large number of quality varietal wines being available in a wide range of prices as well as producers who put out fine blends. Enjoy.

Oddly enough, when OKC's season abruptly finished by losing 4-1 to Memphis in the second round of the playoffs, Martin was left thirsting for more playing days with the Thunder.
"Yes, definitely that's a chapter that's unfinished," Martin said.
Though Martin did not share specific salary numbers during his exit interview with the media, he did admit his decision won't hinge solely on signing with the highest bidder.
"I'm at a point in my career where I don't need to get what I can get (monetarily)," Martin said. "It's more about happiness, and looking back on this experience, I've been on both sides of the fence — being on a championship-caliber team and being on a team trying to make it into the playoffs — so I have a vision of what I want my career to be, and the main thing is happiness and being a part of something special.
"This is a place I'd love to be. Just had a great talk with Sam (Presti) and Scott (Brooks) that I'll keep between us three right now. It's going into a territory I've never been in, being an unrestricted free agent. I'm going to have some options out there, so I just have to see how the process plays out."
