SQL Server 2016 – Query Store: retrieve query that doesn't appear!
For our event SQL Server 2016 in September, I am studying the new functionality Query Store.
My colleague David Barbarin have written few months ago about Query Store and how it's working.
To begin, I execute a simple SELECT on a table with 3 different methods:
SELECT * FROM QS_test; exec sp_executesql N'SELECT * FROM QS_test' EXEC sp_GetQS_test;
The "sp_GetQS_test" is a stored procedure with the select statement.
I created a little query with specific DMVs for Query Store to analyze the query:
SELECT qsqt.query_text_id,qsqt.query_sql_text,qsq.query_id,qsq.query_hash, qsq.query_parameterization_type_desc,qsq.initial_compile_start_time, qsq.last_compile_start_time,qsq.last_execution_time,qsq.avg_compile_duration, qsp.query_id,qsp.plan_id,qsrs.execution_type_desc FROM sys.query_store_query_text qsqt inner join sys.query_store_query qsq on qsq.query_text_id=qsqt.query_text_id inner join sys.query_store_plan qsp on qsp.query_id=qsq.query_id inner join sys.query_store_runtime_stats qsrs on qsrs.plan_id=qsp.plan_id WHERE query_sql_text='SELECT * FROM QS_test';
SELECT Query with a Where clause
As you can see in the result, all 3 queries are present with the same query text ('SELECT * FROM QS_test') in the query store.
I continue my test with a select and a where clause:
SELECT * FROM QS_test WHERE rid=5
I run my query to find the query in the query store:
And, Oh surprise, no query found! The query does not appear in the query store….
I rerun my query without the where clause to see if I find something:
The result give me a query written differently:
(@1 tinyint)SELECT * FROM [QS_test] WHERE [rid]=@1
This query goes through a parametrization and to retrieve this information we use a new function in SQL Server 2016: fn_stmt_sql_handle_from_sql_stmtFunction sys.fn_stmt_sql_handle_from_sql_stmt
This function give us the SQL handle for the query
After, I add the function in my query to find it in the Query Store:
SELECT qsqt.query_text_id,qsqt.query_sql_text,qsq.query_id,qsq.query_hash, qsq.query_parameterization_type_desc,qsq.initial_compile_start_time,qsq.last_compile_start_time, qsq.last_execution_time,qsq.avg_compile_duration,qsp.query_id,qsp.plan_id,qsrs.execution_type_desc FROM sys.query_store_query_text qsqt inner join sys.query_store_query qsq on qsq.query_text_id=qsqt.query_text_id inner join sys.query_store_plan qsp on qsp.query_id=qsq.query_id inner join sys.query_store_runtime_stats qsrs on qsrs.plan_id=qsp.plan_id CROSS APPLY sys.fn_stmt_sql_handle_from_sql_stmt('SELECT * FROM QS_test WHERE rid=5',NULL) fsshfss WHERE qsqt.statement_sql_handle=fsshfss.statement_sql_handle;
It's done, I retrieve the query thanks to this new function.
You can notice that I use the statement_sql_handle column and not the query_sql_text column in the clause where.
I have tested with query_sql_text column and you can see here the error that I get…
The query_sql_text from the function is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS and both my database and my instance are using French_CI_AS. This is not hopeless…
Then, if you want to use the query with query_sql_text, you just need just to precise the collation with the keyword COLLATE

Trace Flag 4199 or not in SQL Server 2016?
Some Trace Flag like T1117 and T1118 are no more needed as you can read on David's blog.
But that's not all, you have also the T4199…
This Trace Flag enables all query optimizer fixes.
A lot of DBAs have enabled this Trace Flag globally during the build of a new server.
If you want to take advantage of an enhancement or a fix, the T4199 becomes a necessity…
But now, with SQL Server 2016, this is an old story!SQL Server 2016 eliminates the T4199
In SQL Server 2016, you don't need to enable this Trace Flag, forget your old habit!
It is automatically included when you change the COMPATIBILY LEVEL to 130:
USE [master] GO ALTER DATABASE [MyDatabase] SET COMPATIBILITY_LEVEL = 130 GO
Advise: If you find a unexpected/poor plan, use the Query Store to analyze and force a plan!

Index Sanity
By popular demand (well, one person emailed me to ask for it) I'm going to publish the source code for a little demo I've been giving since the beginning of the millenium – it concerns indexes and the potential side effects that you can get when you drop an index that you're not using. I think I've mentioned the effect several times in the history of this blog, but I can't find an explicit piece of demo code, so here it is – starting at the conclusion – as a cut and paste from an SQL*Plus session running against an 11g instance:
SQL> set autotrace traceonly explain select t1.small_vc, t2.small_vc, t3.small_vc from t1, t2, t3 where t1.n1 between 40 and 50 and t2.id1 = t1.id1 and t2.ind_pad = t1.ind_pad and t2.id2 = t1.id2 and t3.id = t1.id1 11 ; Execution Plan ---------------------------------------------------------- Plan hash value: 1184213596 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 484 | 64856 | 227 (2)| 00:00:02 | |* 1 | HASH JOIN | | 484 | 64856 | 227 (2)| 00:00:02 | |* 2 | HASH JOIN | | 484 | 57596 | 14 (0)| 00:00:01 | | 3 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| T2 | 20 | 1160 | 4 (0)| 00:00:01 | |* 4 | TABLE ACCESS FULL| T1 | 484 | 29524 | 10 (0)| 00:00:01 | | 5 | TABLE ACCESS FULL | T3 | 5000 | 75000 | 213 (2)| 00:00:02 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Predicate Information (identified by operation id): --------------------------------------------------- 1 - access("T3"."ID"="T1"."ID1") 2 - access("T2"."ID1"="T1"."ID1" AND "T2"."IND_PAD"="T1"."IND_PAD" AND "T2"."ID2"="T1"."ID2") 4 - filter("T1"."N1"<=50 AND "T1"."N1">=40) SQL> drop index t2_i1; Index dropped. select t1.small_vc, t2.small_vc, t3.small_vc from t1, t2, t3 where t1.n1 between 40 and 50 and t2.id1 = t1.id1 and t2.ind_pad = t1.ind_pad and t2.id2 = t1.id2 and t3.id = t1.id1 11 ; Execution Plan ---------------------------------------------------------- Plan hash value: 2290830436 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Id | Operation | Name | Rows | Bytes | Cost (%CPU)| Time | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | 0 | SELECT STATEMENT | | 52 | 6968 | 67 (2)| 00:00:01 | | 1 | NESTED LOOPS | | 52 | 6968 | 67 (2)| 00:00:01 | | 2 | NESTED LOOPS | | 52 | 6968 | 67 (2)| 00:00:01 | |* 3 | HASH JOIN | | 52 | 6188 | 14 (0)| 00:00:01 | | 4 | TABLE ACCESS FULL | T2 | 20 | 1160 | 4 (0)| 00:00:01 | |* 5 | TABLE ACCESS FULL | T1 | 484 | 29524 | 10 (0)| 00:00:01 | |* 6 | INDEX UNIQUE SCAN | T3_PK | 1 | | 0 (0)| 00:00:01 | | 7 | TABLE ACCESS BY INDEX ROWID| T3 | 1 | 15 | 1 (0)| 00:00:01 | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Predicate Information (identified by operation id): --------------------------------------------------- 3 - access("T2"."ID1"="T1"."ID1" AND "T2"."IND_PAD"="T1"."IND_PAD" AND "T2"."ID2"="T1"."ID2") 5 - filter("T1"."N1"<=50 AND "T1"."N1">=40) 6 - access("T3"."ID"="T1"."ID1")
Starting from the top – I've enabled autotrace which, technically, could mean that the plans are not the ones I'd see at run-time, but you can take my word for it that in 11g they are the run-time plans; then I've supplied a query that produces a plan with 3 full tablescans, two hash joins, and no index usage at all.
You'll notice at operation 3 of the plan that table t2 is very small – only 20 rows selected, with no predicates that could have filtered that result down from a large table (take my word for it the stats have just been collected) so, as the ancient mythology would have it, we don't really need an index on that table (a quick check tells me that the index wasn't there to enforce uniqueness). Immediately after the first execution plan you can see that I've dropped an index called t2_i1 – trust me that IS the index on table t2.
We "run" the original query again, it gets re-optimised (and there's no question of cardinality feedback or any other feature coming into play) and we get a different plan.
Dropping, or adding, a multi-column index to a table could change execution plan – even if the index is not present in the plan.
The reason for this is the "index sanity check". When the optimizer is doing its cardinality estimates, if it see equality conditions on the set of columns that make up an index it can use the distinct_keys statistic from the index in the calculation rather than using the standard calculation of multiplying together the num_distinct of the separate columns. In earlier versions of Oracle there were some restrictions about uniqueness, but the limitations were removed in 188.8.131.52.
In my case there were 10 distinct values for id1, just one value for ind_pad, and 20 distinct values for id2 – but a total of only 20 distinct values for the combination. With an index in place on the combination the optimizer used the value 20 in its calculation, in the absence of the index it used the value 200 – that factor of 10 led to a drop in the join cardinality estimate from 484 rows to 52 rows – at which point the optimizer calculations made the next step in the plan change from a hash join to a nested loop join.
If you want to reproduce the demo, here's the full script – the data isn't a realistic data set, and I've had to use various non-standard settings to make the script as repeatable as possible – I've built the data set in a tablespace using an 8KB block size, 1MB uniform extents and manual (freelist) segment space management.
rem rem Script: index_sanity.sql rem Author: Jonathan Lewis rem drop table t3; drop table t2; drop table t1; execute dbms_random.seed(0); begin begin execute immediate 'purge recyclebin'; exception when others then null; end; begin dbms_stats.set_system_stats('MBRC',16); dbms_stats.set_system_stats('MREADTIM',10); dbms_stats.set_system_stats('SREADTIM',5); dbms_stats.set_system_stats('CPUSPEED',1000); exception when others then null; end; end; / create table t1 as select mod(rownum,10) id1, mod(rownum,20) id2, rpad('x',40,'x') ind_pad, mod(rownum,100) n1, lpad(rownum,10,'0') small_vc, rpad('x',50) padding from all_objects where rownum <= 4000 ; create table t2 pctfree 99 pctused 1 as select mod(rownum,10) id1, mod(rownum,20) id2, rpad('x',40,'x') ind_pad, mod(rownum,100) n1, lpad(rownum,10,'0') small_vc, rpad('x',200) padding from all_objects where rownum <= 20 ; create table t3 pctfree 95 pctused 1 as select rownum id, rpad(rownum,10) small_vc, rpad('x',100) padding from all_objects where rownum <= 5000 ;
begin dbms_stats.gather_table_stats( ownname => user, tabname => 'T1', method_opt => 'for all columns size 1' ); dbms_stats.gather_table_stats( ownname => user, tabname => 'T2', method_opt => 'for all columns size 1' ); dbms_stats.gather_table_stats( ownname => user, tabname => 'T3', method_opt => 'for all columns size 1' ); end; / create index t1_i1 on t1(id1, ind_pad, id2) pctfree 91; create index t2_i1 on t2(id1, ind_pad, id2) pctfree 91; alter table t3 add constraint t3_pk primary key (id); set autotrace traceonly explain select t1.small_vc, t2.small_vc, t3.small_vc from t1, t2, t3 where t1.n1 between 40 and 50 and t2.id1 = t1.id1 and t2.ind_pad = t1.ind_pad and t2.id2 = t1.id2 and t3.id = t1.id1 ; -- alter index t1_i1 invisible; -- alter index t2_i1 invisible; drop index t1_i1; -- drop index t2_i1; accept X prompt "Press return to coninue" select t1.small_vc, t2.small_vc, t3.small_vc from t1, t2, t3 where t1.n1 between 40 and 50 and t2.id1 = t1.id1 and t2.ind_pad = t1.ind_pad and t2.id2 = t1.id2 and t3.id = t1.id1 ; set autotrace off
You'll notice from the commented lines in the above that the effect appears whether you drop the index or make it invisible, also that there's a similar index on the t1 table that matches the index on the t2 table – I could get the effect from dropping or making invisible either index.
There is a saving grace in 11g – if I do drop, or make invisible, one of these indexes I can protect myself against the statistical effect by create a column group on the same set of columns, and the num_distinct from the column group would serve the same purpose as the distinct_keys from the index.

SQL> CREATE TABLE us_restaurants_new ( id NUMBER, poi_name VARCHAR2(32), location SDO_GEOMETRY -- New column to store locations );This creates a table that defines an entry that helps us find where the restaurant is located. We can populate this entry with
SQL> INSERT INTO us_restaurants_new VALUES ( 1, 'PIZZA HUT', SDO_GEOMETRY ( 2001, -- SDO_GTYPE attribute: "2" in 2001 specifies dimensionality is 2. NULL, -- other fields are set to NULL. SDO_POINT_TYPE -- Specifies the coordinates of the point ( -87, -- first ordinate, i.e., value in longitude dimension 38, -- second ordinate, i.e., value in latitude dimension NULL -- third ordinate, if any ), NULL, NULL ) );This inserts and entry for restaurant number 1, labeled PIZZA_HUT, and the location is defined by a point located at -87, 38. Note that these are relative locations defined in relation to a map. We use the SDO_GTYPE to define what type of mapping that we are using and how we are describing the location for this store.
The key benefit to this is that we can define restaurants and things like interstates. We can query the database by asking for any reference that is half a mile from the interstate. This is done with the following query
SQL> SELECT poi_name FROM ( SELECT poi_name, SDO_GEOM.SDO_DISTANCE(P.location, I.geom, 0.5) distance FROM us_interstates I, us_restaurants P WHERE I.interstate = 'I795' ORDER BY distance ) WHERE ROWNUM <= 5; POI_NAME ----------------------------------- PIZZA BOLI'S BLAIR MANSION INN DINNER THEATER KFC CHINA HUT PIZZA HUTThe select statement does a distance calculation looking at the distance between the interstate labeled I795 and any restaurant in the database. Note that we could have selected an address on the interstate and found something that is less than a specified distance. This is typically how something like Google Maps works. It uses your current location which is read from your phone as a latitude, longitude, and elevation and shows you the search term close to you. This allows you to easily find banks, places to eat, places to get gas, or an address that you are trying to get to.
We can not only look for distances relative to a point or a line (as we did with the interstate) but we can draw shapes around an object and look for things that fall into or out of the shape. For example, if we get the GSP points for a park, we can draw a shape that defines the park using latitude and longitude points. We can then look for related objects inside the park, outside the park, or within a few feet of the park. This helps police look for crimes that happen surrounding a park and react appropriately. In the database we define an object with spatial data and draw a shape around the object. A simple way of doing this is a simple box. The code to do this would look like
SQL> INSERT INTO USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA VALUES ( 'CUSTOMERS', -- TABLE_NAME 'LOCATION', -- COLUMN_NAME SDO_DIM_ARRAY -- DIMINFO attribute for storing dimension bounds, tolerance ( SDO_DIM_ELEMENT ( 'LONGITUDE', -- DIMENSION NAME for first dimension -180, -- SDO_LB for the dimension 180, -- SDO_UB for the dimension 0.5 -- Tolerance of 0.5 meters ), SDO_DIM_ELEMENT ( 'LATITUDE', -- DIMENSION NAME for second dimension -90, -- SDO_LB for the dimension 90, -- SDO_UB for the dimension 0.5 -- Tolerance of 0.5 meters ) ), 8307 -- SRID value for specifying a geodetic coordinate system );You can define a data type as
- Point
- Line string
- Polygon
- Polygon with a hole
- Collection (a combination of all of the above)
- Compound line string
- Compound polygon
- 3d Composite surface
- 3d Simple solid
- 3d Compound solid
- 3d Collection (a combination of all 3d objects)
We are not going to go into deep detail on how to program Spatial. It is recommended that you look at
- Oracle Technology Network
- Spatial whitepaper
- Spatial intro video
- Oracle By Example - Spatial
- Oracle By Example - Spatial Query
- Oracle Spatial Blog
- Oracle MapViewer Blog
In summary, Spatial and Graphics are optional packages that help you do locational queries against a database. Spatial is not unique to Oracle but the structures and select statements typically do not cross database types but does work with products like Golden Gate to replicate data to other database spatial structures and queries. Spatial is a very powerful package that simplifies select statements that would be very complex otherwise. Finding distance between objects or distances from a line (highway for example) or distances from a polygon (park for example). If your application needs Spatial you need to select the High Performance or Extreme Performance editions.

Therefore, for a PDB environment, I'd use DBMS_SERVICE as I've demonstrated here and here.
Digital Engagement: What Every Business Needs to Know
The post below, originally authored by Martin Cookson, Director of Mobility at Oracle EMEA and posted on the Oracle EMEA blog, does a great job at describing the challenges organizations are facing when it comes to digital experience and engagement, and what you can do to ensure your digital engagement strategy is successful. Martin's blog post also sets the stage nicely for topics we'll be discussing in the coming weeks and months around how you can use digital experience solutions in the cloud to modernize employee engagement, customer experience and applications infrastructure. We've got a lot of great use cases around these topics we can't wait to share with you, so please stay tuned!
Author: Martin Cookson, Director of Mobility at Oracle EMEA
Digital is throwing up new challenges and opportunities for businesses. On the one hand companies face challenges from disruptive 'digitally native' competitors, rapidly taking significant market share, or worse: redefining the traditional market entirely. Take that now classic example of Amazon, which revolutionized online retail with 1-Click Ordering and has subsequently launched Amazon Web Services. On the other hand, companies are finding that they can create significant new revenue streams and enter new markets through the use of digital technologies within their traditional businesses. Chemicals company Monsanto, for example, has branched out into the delivery of data science technologies for the agriculture sector.
The digital revolution is also an opportunity for any business to transform its own operations and in doing so, find new markets, develop new business models, and engage with consumers in innovative ways. To do this, however, companies must understand the nature of digital engagement and the possibilities that it affords.
Digital engagement in action
Digital engagement is of course driven by leveraging technology but success is about ensuring positive outcomes. It encompasses creating new revenue streams, seeking out new business opportunities, finding a competitive edge, creating efficiencies, and better serving customers.
One great example of an established business benefiting from digital engagement is Floyd Medical Center in the US, which is using its new web experience management platform to improve the way it communicates. Floyd Medical Centre today uses its web presence as an important community resource and marketing tool as it faces up to the challenge of increased competition in the region.
The healthcare system also includes an intranet that provides important information and resources for employees across the organization, as well as for departmental teams. Employees can now securely access the intranet, which is updated with new content daily, either in the office or remotely; while improved search and segmentation capabilities enable employees to find internal content more quickly. The result is a more effective workforce better able to service customers and deliver a competitive edge.
One of Europe's largest and busiest airports, meanwhile, is using beacon technology to track travellers across its premises. Not only can the airport know exactly where an individual is at any time, but it can use the data it gathers to have new interactions with people at every stage of their journey. This enables it to target people with tailored information, whether it's marketing messages in duty free, hotel and taxi recommendations at arrivals, or relevant advice at check-in or immigration.
Finally, News Limited in Australia has overhauled its publication systems and processes to remain competitive in the digital age; particularly to provide content designed for mobile devices and to introduce new services, such as paywalls for premium content. Its new digital content management platform allows the company to publish stories in less than 90 seconds, compared to 15 minutes in the past, allowing the company to stay on top of breaking news in real-time. News Limited has also added new features, such as story and gallery wizards and intelligent, internal search and automated editorial-content enhancement functions that have increased the quality of content and enabled greater customer satisfaction and higher subscription numbers.
Intelligent, in-the-moment customer experiences
So what are these businesses doing that sets them apart from their competitors? Or to put this question another way: what can businesses do to ensure their digital engagement strategies are successful?
First, businesses must adopt a mobile first strategy and engineer their services from the outside in (i.e. think with mobile devices and end user needs in mind). Businesses should then look to create value and loyalty while reducing the cost of operations by building intelligent, in-the-moment experiences across different channels simultaneously, in-context and collaboratively. This is all about knowing the user; not just about who they are and what they like etc., but what they are doing now; where they are and who and what they are near.
This is why the above-mentioned airport is enjoying such success from its beacon technology – it enables a service that is all about the customer at a precise moment in time, it meets a need, in context and through the perfect engagement channel. This is what digital engagement is all about – exceptional customer experiences through intuitive services that build customer engagement and loyalty.
Enabling digital engagement
Any business serious about creating disruptive digital engagement needs to adopt a mature digital engagement platform. The agile nature of digital engagement means that any such platform must be based on cloud computing technology. This is because only the cloud can deliver the flexibility, integration capabilities and speed businesses need to innovate and take engagement models to market before their competitors.
The cloud is also where many of the services digital engagement platforms leverage are based – such as Facebook, Google Maps and Apple Notifications and Twitter – and it makes sense to build the platform as close to these services as possible. Finally, the cloud delivers the cost-effective business models and appropriate operations models (for example, DevOps), required to make digital engagement a success.
Today's cloud for tomorrow's needs
However, cloud platforms are not all created equal. As businesses look to enable digital engagement, they must select cloud platforms capable of accelerating their digital transformation, integrating core business systems with modern engagement and delivery platforms, and giving them a competitive edge. This requires a holistic digital engagement platform comprising middleware and database software that delivers against the core areas of digital engagement, such as mobile, the Internet of Things, content and collaboration, digital web experience and business process agility. These are all elements that tie directly to building and deploying transformational omni-channel customer experiences.
It is crucial to point out that the right digital engagement platform is not simply an enabling technology - it is a strategic engine of innovation and absolutely essential to creating compelling customer services. The right cloud platform provides application developers within businesses with the ability to test and develop new and innovative customer services in low-cost, intuitive cloud environments, using pre-configured development tools. This approach dramatically reduces the cost and time associated with innovation.
Moreover, a hybrid cloud approach, which brings together both public and private cloud elements in combination with on-premises systems, enable businesses to rapidly scale up applications that have been proven to be successful within the test environment. It is an ideal approach for businesses that due to regulatory or policy reasons have not been able to move to the public cloud as fast as they would like. In today's environment all businesses need to think of themselves as start-ups and look to deploy cloud platforms that help them innovate at speed and low cost – whether that is public, private or hybrid solutions.
No-one has a natural right to the digital future. Businesses will have to fight hard, be brave and experiment. The rewards are there to be won, but those who have no stomach digital transformation will find themselves in a fight for survival.

Making Movies with Kino
When all of your scenes or episodes are free of unwanted frames, put them in the right order. An easy way to reorder them is by using Storyboard. Click Edit first, then click a scene in the Storyboard you want to move and click Cut. Then, select the scene you want to follow it, and click Paste. The cut scene appears before the selected scene.
An even easier way to re-order scenes is by using drag and drop. In the Edit mode, click on the scene you want to move, hold down the mouse button and drag it to the required place in the Storyboard list. The scene appears at this position after you release the mouse button. While dragging and dropping, pay attention to the thin line that indicates the current target position. Drop does not work if the target shows a dotted rectangle. You also can insert previously captured video clips into your current movie project. The Commands/Insert Movie button puts the selected file at the current position, and Commands/Append Movie follows it. Inserted files are split into scenes automatically if required.
After your scenes are assembled, the video part of your movie is almost done, but you still can add some of the effects that Kino and timfx provide. Be careful with effects, though—too many effects can distract viewers. You don't have to put an effect on every scene change, just like you don't have to use a new font in every section of a document. The simplest Kino effect is the Barn Door. Let's join two scenes with it.
Click FX→Video Transition. Select Barn Door Wipe from the pull-down menu. In the other field, choose what kind of door you want. Figure 5 shows a vertical one. The storyboard shows the first frame of the current scene that we want to join with the next one. So we select Frames following and Forward. To see the result before rendering, click Preview. Play with other options of this effect and preview them. When you are satisfied with a result, press Render.
The render button has a red spot on it to show its importance. While rendering, Kino creates a new file. All previous editing keeps the original raw files untouched—only the SMIL has been changed. Now you can create a new file that is included into the project automatically.
Kino provides the Barn Door effect itself. Additional effects are available through timfx. Figure 6 shows the complete list. Many effects are well known, such as what we illustrate here with creating titles.
Kino also can change the speed of your video. This function is used to add comic effects or make moments seem longer. To change the speed, use the scale bar under Advanced Options and push the Speed button. You also can activate Reverse to play your clip from the end back to the starting point. Changing the speed and reversing can be combined with the Transition or Filter effects.
If you want to add text comments to an episode, dvtitler can help. As an example, let's create a simple album that represents the characters acting in our movie. You even can create it using photos with an image editor such as The GIMP.
First, take a picture of the person and resize it for inserting into the movie. For PAL, the size should be 720×576, for NTSC 720×480.
Let's assume the following for this example. The first person will be shown for five seconds, then there will be four seconds for changing, and then five seconds again for the next actor.
From the FX menu, select Create (5+4)sec*25=225 frames. To keep the number of frames even, we choose Create From File→226 frames, as shown in Figure 8. At the same time, we add the title "Denys Tonkonog". It consists of two centered lines and initially is located on the top right of the frame. As the final position is the same, the title does not move in the frames. The X offset and Y offset are used to keep the complete title in the frames, even if the movie is shown on TV, due to the possibly limited size of TV screens. The screenshot of the title preview is shown in Figure 9.
We create another title, "Olexiy Tykhomyrov", in the same manner. Then, we go back to Edit mode and use Split to separate the parts for applying the effect. Instead of creating two title scenes, we create four. They are five seconds in duration, then four seconds, four seconds again and then five seconds. The two central scenes (both four seconds) are joined into one with Image Luma.
In FX mode, click on the second scene under the Storyboard. Under Video Transition, select Image Luma. Next, specify the file with luma image. In the example (Figure 10), we used a standard gradient file left_to_right.png. Do not forget to change the mode from Insert to Overwrite. Once rendered, you have three scenes instead of four. The Timeline of the scene with changing titles is shown in Figure 3. Using Image Luma with different files can help you create many interesting effects.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jamaal Charles rushed for 116 yards and Matt Cassel threw a 3-yard pass to Leonard Pope for the only touchdown, leading Kansas City to a ragged 10-6 victory over Denver on Sunday.
Knowshon Moreno rushed for 161 yards for the Broncos (3-9), who are enduring one of their worst stretches in decades, losing 17 of their past 22 games under coach Josh McDaniels.
In spite of all their blunders, the Chiefs (8-4) stayed unbeaten in six home games and remained on top of the AFC West.
Chiefs coach Todd Haley, who refused to shake hands with McDaniels after losing in Denver three weeks ago, embraced his counterpart this time and even gave him a pat on the head.

Located in Orchard Central, this restaurant serves Chinese cuisine.
Had dim sum lunch there on Sunday 29 May 2011. I like the location, the atmosphere, the food and the price. They are also quite considerate when serving your food. They served all the savory items first, then the sweet items, so you don't have to have a mixed-up of tastes.
The quality of foods is above average, and there is enough variety to choose. The 30% discount applied to dimsum items only. Ala carte orders side dish are without discount. We ordered intestine (卤生肠)and cuttlefish (墨鱼). Both were nice.
I have traveled the world, and eaten in many countries. I must say that last night was one of the WORST dining experiences I ever had, and what worse than for this experience to happen in my own country, Singapore :(
My sis brought us to this restaurant last night to treat us to dinner, since we have been away for a year. We opted for their 4-course abalone and sharks' fin dinner, and at a cost of $216++, was a really horrid experience for the value, the food, and the service. The menu had the following food:
- Barbeque Combination
- Sharks fin with fish maw
- Stir-fried Garoupa Fillet
- Abalone in Stoneware
- Stir-fried daily greens
- Rice porridge with seafood
Value (2/10)
- I am giving one of the lowest ratings because this restaurant's portion for 4, is LITERALLY portion for 1. Each of the above (except for the rice porridge) was served in a small plate that is literally for 1 person in any restaurant I have been to.
Food (3/10)
- I am giving it a combined 3 rating because the abalone was not bad. However, the horrible part of it was that this is a Hong Kong restaurant, and they DID NOT get the sharks fin right. The sharks fin was not cooked properly, resulting in our eating sharks fin that was semi hard (much like chewing uncooked bee hoon). This was a DOWNRIGHT failure, and the night was totally ruined given that we are paying huge $$$ for this.
Service (1/10)
This is ZERO, because I am putting 110% blame on the manager for this. I informed the manager of the sharks fin problem, giving him a chance to rectify it. The ONLY thing he did was to tell me that he will feedback to the chef (what has this got to do with me? It's none of my business what he's going to say to the chef), other than that, NOTHING. No apologies, no initiative to appease the customer.
In all the places I have been, most restaurant managers would have done something to appease the customer, given that the customer is rightfully upset for something BELOW PAR. This restaurant did not do anything.
Happened to have lunch there with my friends last week. The dim sum was nothing special to be honest but wasnt too bad.
Tried the sharkfin soup and beef soup. Both were ok and not too expensive.
Service was mediocre.
Setting was semi-fine dining but presentation and dining wares have some catching up to do if it was to take the fine dining route.

Felt we were made very welcome.
We were very happy with the Bed and breakfast experience.
Our room was a little small, for one night it was quite satisfactory. Long way up,the stairs though. Lovely friendly cat and two super playful dogs..Handy for the Scillonian, just a short walk to the dock. Thankfully we were able to leave our cases at the Stanley for the morning before we caught the train home back to Yorkshire.

Ups and Downs
By nitrowizard9193 on 1/8/2011
I must say the pork was very tender, and extremely delicious. The fennel flavor worked so very well with the pork. My gripe is that the sandwich I was given was simply not good. The bread was too tough (maybe I went at the wrong time of day or had bad luck) the pork was too salty and greasy, and there was no acid. I think it could have definetley used an acidic element like vinegar greens. I must say that the pork fat though was milky and delicious and paired well with the salty pork meat, but I needed some acidic cleanse to pull the sandwich together. Also the crackings were so hard. They kept getting stuck in my teeth. Just not a good. I think the porchetta plate makes more sense, but the sandwich was a no go.

Getting Worse, Sorry To say
By mdiaz14160 on 12/14/2011
When Porchetta first opened across the street from my house, I was more than a regular. It fast became an addiction. The meat was savory and well spiced-very delicious. The sandwiches were a little pricey but so unique in flavor, I'd find myself buying three a day, My recent visits, however, have not been so good. The quality has dropped dramatically and the only spice of note, was salt, which overshadowed everything and made the whole thing difficult to choke down. Combine that with a bottled soda at $4.50-it was an overpriced disappointment that left me wondering what happened? The portions, never huge to begin with, have gotten even smallerâ¦Porchettaâ¦what's going on? I'm loyal but won't remain so in another poor showing or two.

Total botrytis affected wines labor of love in Northwest
One never knows where inspiration will come from, but Idaho winemaker Greg Koenig remembers exactly how he got the idea to attempt a Total Botrytis Affected-style Riesling.
"I had read that Wild Goose Vineyards in British Columbia had done a TBA, and I wondered if we could ever do one in Idaho because of the dry conditions," said Koenig, owner of Koenig Winery in Caldwell.
Wild Goose first made a TBA in 2004. It took six years before the conditions were right for winemaker Hagen Kruger to make another TBA at his Okanagan Falls winery. Harvest came at 39 brix on Oct. 18, 2010.
Total Botrytis Affected wines in the Snake River Valley
Meanwhile, botrytis was blooming in the Snake River Valley.
"I thought to myself, 'Man, this is happening. We're going to be able to try something," Koenig said. "I've got to tell somebody."
On Nov. 9, 2010, Koenig harvested the sweet and shriveled clusters that ended up as his 2010 Botrytis Single Berry Select Late Harvest Riesling.
"The botrytis makes a tremendous late-harvest wine," Koenig said. "The big wineries that reject Riesling because of botrytis are making a huge mistake."
Koenig, 42, proved that. His TBA earned a gold medal and best dessert wine at the 2012 Idaho Wine Competition and then a Platinum at the 2012 Platinum Judging for Wine Press Northwest magazine.
"We took a risk, and it's paid off," Koenig said.
TBAs get their name from their European origins. "Trockenbeerenauslese" – TBA for short – wines are made in Germany and Austria and are among the most expensive and collectible dessert wines made. In France's Alsace region, a similar style of wine is known as "Selection de Grains Nobles" or SGN, which means "Selection of Noble Berries."
Two Total Botrytis Affected wines made in Washington
Chateau Ste. Michelle in Woodinville, Wash., made history as the first winery in North America to produce a Total Botrytis Affected-style Riesling with its 1999 Eroica Single Berry Select. Aside from 2002-2004, Chateau Ste. Michelle has created at TBA every vintage since. The wines retail for $200 per bottle with a extremely limited production each vintage, typically 75 cases to wine club members.
Conditions also were ripe in 2010 on Red Mountain for Kiona Vineyards Winery in Benton City, Wash., so the Williams family created a Single Berry Select Botrytised Chenin Blanc from estate fruit. Kiona produced 70 gallons, about 50 cases, with a retail price of $80 per bottle.
Koenig knows the market in the Snake River Valley, so he sells his for $30.
"There wasn't even enough for me to offer as a wine club selection, and we never really announced it or sent an email," Koenig said. "We started selling it in Thanksgiving and let people taste it alongside our ice wine, which is $10 a bottle cheaper. I want people to come out and learn about botrytis and the process."
Most people who sample the wine have little idea of the effort involved.
"The weather wasn't super cold, probably in the mid-30s, so it's not like ice wine picking," Koenig said. "The clusters we did got were really, really infected. I'd say at least 70 percent affected. They were shriveled and very raisiny, and I had the pickers try some of these berries that were shriveled. Then I saw them eating quite a few as we were going along. And some clusters went home to my kids, who like raisins. They loved them except for the seeds."
Koenig was prepared for the opportunity, having ordered Heiligenstein, an Austrian yeast specially developed for cold fermentations.
"That yeast worked really well and the flavors came through," Koenig said.
The success of the 2010 Botrytis Single Berry Select Late Harvest Riesling prompted Koenig to dream of creating another in 2012.
"I had hope it was going to happen again this year," Koenig said. "Botrytis stopped at 10% because we had one of the driest summers ever. There's just not enough ambient humidity to keep it going. Inevitably, there's a bit of botrytis in ice wine, but the yield would be crazy small. You have to let them hang until they are frozen and the concentration of sugar would be really intense. It would be pretty cool."

I love Dowland too. The transition to lute isn't that hard (in my opinion) I just start renting an archlute a week ago, and I play it with a standard guitar technique : the left hand technique is the same so no problem and for the right hand, i play with nails and without the "thumb under" technique or the pinky on the soundboard. Everybody told me that it wasn't possible and that I would have an awful sound... 2011/07/17 07:42:20 +0000 Comment by jrossmusic So beautiful. And very expressively played. I never tire of Dowland. I've played quite a few transcriptions of his music on guitar but have never been able to make the transition to lute. 2011/07/16 17:41:24 +0000

Don't you miss the days of being able to save before experimenting with its placement? It's crap like this with the new game that pisses me off. "Oh, I have to plunk down $100,000+ for this recycling depot? Hmmm doesn't fit too well. Let me bulldoze and redesign my industrial district. Crap, still doesn't fit nicely unless I bulldoze my large fire station too. Well, let's bite the bullet. Crap, it fits now but not enough room for its expansions. Let me reload the city and try something different... oh"Seriously, EA. Srsly.
Just a thought, try placing the road first? Another question, does the land stay teraformed after you build it? If so build it, then delete it, then build it just to the right or left and the grade might work?
