The Tatiana Show Ep. 163 E.G NadhanDecember 18th, 2018 by TatianaMorozSo I know what a white hat is, I know what a grey hat is, and a black hat. But what the heck is a Red Hat? I was intrigued to meet Nadhan, who goes by a single name like Cher, or Madonna. He stood out because true to the company name, he was adorned with a red baseball cap with "Red Hat" written in white letters. I suppose I should have known, since it turns out Red Hat is a multi billion dollar company that is at the forefront of open innovation and enterpris... Read More

SHEPHERDSTOWN, W. Va. - Shepherd University remained atop the West Virginia Conference standings Saturday with a 38-21 win over West Liberty at Ram Stadium.
Senior Dervon Wallace scored three touchdowns and rushed for 280 yards in the penalty-filled contest for the Rams (9-1, 8-1), who can claim the conference title by defeating visiting West Virginia State next Saturday.
Officials assessed 18 penalties on the teams for 161 yards.
In between flags, the teams moved the football. Shepherd had 461 yards of total offense to 412 yards for West Liberty.
"It sounds like a broken record, but we were again able to establish the running game and that's so important. It opens up the offense," Shepherd coach Monte Cater said. "We knew the importance of controlling the football against a team like West Liberty. They put points on the board and put them on very quickly."

SAN FRANCISCO (CBS.MW) - Applied Materials said Thursday that its flat-panel unit is being investigated by Taiwan trade regulators as part of a patent dispute with Jusung Engineering, according to a quarterly filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The world's largest maker of semiconductor equipment said that the Taiwan Fair Trade Commission notified AKT on April 10 that it was under investigation.
The agency said it was looking into whether AKT had violated trade rules by allegedly notifying customers about its patent rights and the infringement of such rights by Jusung.
Applied AMAT, +3.39% filed a lawsuit against Jusung in late December, alleging the Korean chip equipment maker infringed a patent related to chemical vapor deposition and seeking to have Jusung barred from importing, using, manufacturing or selling certain flat-panel display manufacturing equipment in Taiwan.
Applied won the provisional injunction but by the end of March it had been lifted after Jusung posted a countersuit.
An appellate court ruled late last month that the injunction should be reinstated pending a decision on Applied's appeal of the Jusung countersuit.
Applied said it doesn't believe it violated any laws and the outcome will not have a material adverse effect on its financial condition or results of operations.
Shares of Applied ended Thursday at $18.92, up 24 cents, or 1.3 percent.

Then I began my most wonderful creations...creations I really had no control over, but ones that grew within me and were the most beautiful creations of all.
They are amazing, completely truly amazing.
It doesn't get any better than these handsome faces.
How did these masterpieces come from me?
I am so blessed to be allowed to help nurture their creativity. Being a part of their creative process has encouraged me to begin creating again. I've been making some jewelry and doing lots of home decorating diy projects (I'll be sharing some soon). In the process I've also decided to start my own little business. I'm working on some products that I will be putting in an Etsy store soon. I can't wait to share my newest creations with you.

NHS England has agreed to commission a "significant range and volume" of planned care from private hospitals over the coming months.
The commitment comes following the failure of a national push to clear NHS waiting list backlogs in recent months.
The health body, as well as national health services regulator Monitor and the NHS Trust Development Authority (TDA) have promised to underwrite hospital trusts' spending on referrals to private providers that they would not otherwise be able to fund.
A Monitor spokesman said that £30m of as yet unallocated money from £250m set aside to ease waiting lists would be used to pay for approximately 30,000 procedures between December and March 2015.
The spokesman added: "Patients will only be offered the choice to transfer (to a private provider) if it is clinically appropriate."
In a report to an NHS England board meeting, the national body's chief executive Simon Stevens stated: "It is… apparent that NHS providers have not uniformly been able to deliver the extra volumes of elective activity they contracted to provide during the autumn.
"So the TDA, Monitor and NHS England will now be working with individual hospitals that have not met their commitments to ensure that patients on their waiting lists are offered alternative treatment options, funded from the original £250m allocation."
A performance report to the same meeting added: "There is evidence that not all the activity NHS trusts agreed has been delivered during the months June-November when the backlog reduction was to take place. We continue to work with NHS trusts, but we have also agreed a significant range and volume of activity to be delivered by the Independent Sector over the coming months."
Action would be taken, it said, to ensure expected standards are met on a sustainable basis where they have not been delivered.

After trying this version of Henry of Pelham's Baco last year, I resolved to repeat the experience and to purchase it once again for a detailed tasting.

Henry of Pelham could be called Ontario's "Baco King". Maybe they already have been?

The tall bottle is closed with a high-quality natural cork. The wine pours with a dark, saturated black-cherry/magenta colour. Raspberry and plummy fruit, along with signature riparia notes waft about on the nose. The entry is tart, lively and brisk, as befits Baco—and balanced, firm warmth is noted as the wine travels across the mid-palate. A good structure is also evident here.

This is available as a general-list item at the LCBO, for about $20.

I preferred this Old Vines version to the family reserve.Paul Bulashttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-68701727112879797012018-01-19T21:06:00.000-05:002018-01-19T21:06:45.836-05:002016 Inniskillin Baco Noir (Ontario VQA)

This wine initially caught my eye last summer when I spotted it at a Wine Rack store. Baco from Inniskillin? That's a new one. Up to the turn of the millennium, Inniskillin had produced an Old Vines Foch (the very wine that turned me onto red hybrid wines twenty years ago); sadly, production of that wine was discontinued in the early 2000s—a mistake!

This Baco pours with a dense black-cherry colour that fades to medium-deep magenta at the meniscus. The initial aromas are of blue plums with a slight overlay of peppercorns—classic Baco. The entry is very supple with balanced acidity (the mildest of any Baco I've tasted) and a broad warmth from the 13% alc./vol. On the palate, the acidity remains mild but cleansing, as it works its way to the back of the palate. The finish is short and clean.

It's a good Baco that retails on general list at the LCBO now as well (limited availability), for $15.95 CAD.

I still would like to see Inniskillin bring back their Foch!Paul Bulashttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-75387335699632173492018-01-07T18:41:00.000-05:002018-01-07T18:45:25.219-05:002016 Sandbanks Foch - Baco Noir "Sleeping Giant" (VQA Ontario)

This blend of Foch and Baco has been one of my go-to reds for well over a year now. Sandbanks Estate Winery is located south of Belleville (eastern Lake Ontario, north shore—basically across the lake from Rochester).

The wine pours with a beautiful, saturated black-cherry/magenta colour. Sweet and herbaceous Vitis riparia aromas are immediately dominant on the nose and are backed up by lively summer raspberry fruit. There's oak here, but it's well integrated and in the background, offering more structural support than overt aromatics—which is fine by me, as the palate benefits from this oak treatment.

Tart but balanced acidity fans out across the palate, offering a refreshing texture and good warmth from the 12.8% alc./vol. The finish is elegant and a touch spicy from the oak, but in a restrained way.

Excellent wine and well worth the price (it varies between $18 and $20 at the LCBO depending on time of year).

One of the best, and a welcome addition to the modern red hybrid winescape.Paul Bulashttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-11921451997918095722018-01-01T17:32:00.000-05:002018-01-01T17:45:06.103-05:002015 Henry of Pelham Speck Family Reserve Baco Noir

Henry of Pelham Family Estate Winery is Niagara's Baco Noir specialist. Not only are they a consistent producer of quality varietal Baco in the region—they actually produce three distinct releases of the varietal wine, all with slightly different oak aging regimens and fruit sourced from vines of different ages.

In reserve for today's New Year tasting is the Speck Family Reserve. It's the only one that I hadn't tasted up to now. It retails for $25 at Vintages and is available at select stores only.

This wine hails from the winery's original planting of Baco, dating back to 1984. That's interesting, because it means that the vines predate the whole VQA system under which the wine bears a "VQA Ontario" designation. Even though the wine technically hails from the Short Hills Bench appellation, VQA does not deem hybrids worthy of appellation-specific nomenclature—an absurdity, as wine writer David Lawrason rightly pointed out in his write-up on the wine.

The bottle is closed with an elegant, solid, top quality natural cork. The cork showed deep purple-black staining once pulled out, though only where it had been in contact with the wine, indicating a good seal.

The wine poured with a gorgeous, saturated black, cherry-mahogany hue which, in the glass, morphs into a weathered-sumac hue at the meniscus. At 13.5% alc./vol., good tear development can be seen along the inside of the glass (and is even visible in the picture at right).

The nose is deeply oaky, with big, bold, black-cherry fruit and prominent wood vanillins from the American oak. There is lengthy integration of bold oak and fruit. On the palate, lithe, bright acidity leads the way; the texture is dry and cleansing along the mid-palate and energetically lively into the finish. The flavours finish out with beets, red currants, a hint of dried tomatoes and just a tap of oak at the end.

Very well done, but bold and oaky in style. If you prefer less oak, try the winery's Old Vines release.

Happy New Year!Paul Bulashttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-52758673364645999572016-12-11T17:38:00.000-05:002016-12-11T17:44:42.992-05:002014 Georgian Hills Maréchal Foch (Ontario VQA)

I had wanted to try this Foch for a long time, given that it comes from a "non-traditional" wine growing region in Ontario: the southern shore of Georgian Bay. That, plus the fact that I'm a fan of the Maréchal Foch grape, made this a "must get" wine.

Varietal Foch was easy to find in Ontario up to and just past the turn of the millennium; slowly afterwards, though, it began to disappear from the winescape. For this reason, I am always excited to find new examples of varietal Foch, as this is a grape which deserves more respect for the heft of the red wines that it can produce in climates with short growing seasons and occasionally harsh winters.

The Georgian Hills Foch is closed with a natural cork; upon pulling out the cork, I noted lots of inky-purple saturation on the end of the cork (a signature sign of many red-hybrid wines) and also noted some tartrate crystals intermixed with the pigment.

The wine pours with a deep, saturated, black/cherry hue. In the glass, hue is an intense but translucent black/cherry/garnet when held against a light. Foch is a teinturier grape—one that has pigmented skins and pulp, and therefore, it makes a wine of great visual intensity.

The aromas are of light black cherry; they are simple, and not as layered as the much missed, oak-aged Niagara Peninsula Fochs tended to be (and as the Vieni Reserve from Niagara still is). That said, the cherry fruitiness is inviting.

Bright acidity and light but good tannins arrive on the entry. The wine is dry and pleasant on the mid-palate, and at 12.5%, it is gently warming. Very good structure on the mid-palate, without the zinginess that many a Baco Noir has. I've always thought that Foch was the more interesting of these two grapes (both were common in Ontario, but Baco is still more widely produced today).

While in Michigan I picked up this varietal Baco Noir which hails from the Leelanau Peninsula. On the label it says, "A Taste of Northern Michigan"—very nice.

I had previously never tried Baco from such a northerly location, being instead more accustomed to those produced in Southern Ontario.

The wine is of a medium-ruby hue; quite translucent in the bottle. In the glass, it shows typical Baco saturation, and seems a darker shade of garnet.

Aromatically, it is unlike most Ontario Bacos, showing a bright red-berry fruitiness that reminds me of a few Bardolinos that I've tried over the years. On the entry, the wine is tart and lively in a rounded way (a Baco trait for sure), and has good warmth as well, clocking in at 12.55% alc./vol. The finish is fresh and palate-invigorating.

A good wine. I got it for USD $15 and would buy it again.Paul Bulashttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-73465544837767197072016-05-29T16:02:00.001-04:002016-05-29T16:07:18.637-04:002013 Magnotta Dry Vidal Equus Series (Ontario VQA)I remember enjoying this wine tremendously many years ago. I'm happy to say that Magnotta's dry Vidal, while having undergone a name and label change since the early days, is as fine a wine as I remember it.

In fact, I love dry Vidal table wine so much that the background on my blog is a photo of Vidal grapes growing in Niagara wine country. Vidal is one of Ontario's most versatile wine grapes.

12.8% alc./vol. Clear, medium-straw/yellow hue in the glass. Wonderful aromas of lemon candy, pineapple, pine needles and guava. Crisp and focused on the entry, with that lively and lovely varietal acidity; a warm but balanced texture; and a palate-cleansing, fully dry finish that I appreciate.

Magnotta's retail outlet is a fine place to visit and the prices are right. I have long believed that Magnotta makes Ontario's best dry Vidal table wine... I still believe it, having tasted this version.

$7.45 for a 750 ml bottle, and worth every penny.Paul Bulashttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-7895448982260271782016-01-09T19:44:00.000-05:002016-01-10T11:00:52.724-05:002012 Vieni Estates Briganti (Ontario VQA)

I was delighted to recently find this wine on general list in the LCBO. Vieni Estates' Briganti is a three-way blend of Foch, Baco and De Chaunac—at one time, three of the most common red hybrid grapes in Ontario.

You just don't see much innovation in this category of wine anymore. Up to the turn of the millennium, there were quite a few very good varietal Fochs, and even a few varietal De Chaunacs. This release seems to represent something of a rebirth for the genre, and I couldn't be happier. Having tried Vieni's excellent Foch Vintage Reserve last month, I was excited to see this release from the same winery.

The wine is bottled in a smart, screw-top bottle. It pours with a saturated, deep garnet colour that fades to a cherry-garnet hue at the meniscus. Baco Noir seems to lead on the nose, with briny, plummy fruit and some complex rootsy notes that are typical of many wines with V. riparia lineage. On the palate, there is brisk, clean acidity and very good texture; the wine is dry and cleansing. On the mid-palate, I seem to get more of the Foch notes, but in general, no single grape dominates. The finish is dry and clean—this is a wine made for the dinner table. It is well balanced at 12.0% alc./vol.

For stylistic comparison to other wines—think of a brisk northern Italian red like Barbera.

My food pairings would be lasagna, ribs, and pizza. The wine has the acidity and heft to invigorate and refresh the palate.

My only suggestion would be to give this wine some time in oak: even just 6-8 months in American (or Canadian!) oak would be sufficient. Aged this way, it would be very reminiscent of the excellent Harrow Estates Baco that Carlo Negri used to make in the late 1990s.

This Vieni Estates Briganti is a very welcome addition to Ontario's winescape. It is $12.95 on general list in the Ontario VQA section of the LCBO.Paul Bulashttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-76561212651842574682015-12-19T22:39:00.002-05:002016-04-10T20:05:50.148-04:00Vieni Estates 2012 Foch Vintage Reserve (Ontario VQA)

Vieni 2012 Foch Vintage Reserve (Ontario VQA)

I was impressed to find this fine Ontario Foch at Vintages recently. Truth be told, it sort of flew over my radar, having been released this past summer.

The wine pours with a beautiful, and typical, saturated deep-garnet colour that fades to a "weathered sumac" black-mahogany hue at the meniscus. It opens up in the glass with wonderful, big, aromatic oak aromas, all framed by quality oak. Mingling with that, there are tart black currant and blue plum aromas. Aromatically, this reminds me of the many reserve Fochs that graced the Ontario wine scene right up to Y2K.

On the palate, there is tart, lithe acidity and a clean, dry, palate-cleansing texture that carries the fruit and oak aromas right across it — with power, lightness, and elegance, all at the same time. This is classic Ontario Foch.

The finish is dry and elegant, with replays of the same aromatic compounds.

It is a shame that so many excellent examples of varietal Maréchal Foch have disappeared from the Ontario wine scene over the past decade. For this reason, it is a joy to find a winery producing a treat like this, from a grape that deserves much more respect in this part of the world for climatic suitability and innate quality characteristics.

The wine retails for less than $20 and is 14% alc./vol.Paul Bulashttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-43443404493048596162015-09-27T18:05:00.000-04:002015-12-19T23:07:15.690-05:002014 Peller Estates Baco Noir (Ontario VQA)This is one of the best Bacos in Ontario: it is always fairly priced and done well.

Deep ruby-black with a ruby-magenta meniscus. Aromas of sweet plummy fruit and wild V. riparia grapiness. Mouth-filling, with bright, tense acidity and great structure. 2014 wasn't a great vintage for reds in Ontario, but Baco and its other V. riparia-derived brethren typically manage to shine, despite such obstacles.

Invigorating, palate-enlivening mouth feel, coupled with a dash of balancing residual sweetness and typical diminutive tannins.

The finish is clean and lean, and it leaves your palate refreshed.

The Great One knows a great grape.

12.5% alc./vol. The wine pours with a deep scarlet-ruby hue and dense but translucent saturation. Superb, briny, plummy / V. riparia varietal Baco nose, with lively, tart red currant fruit.

Bright, refreshing tartness on the entry. Zingy, tight entry, with good focus and a firm backbone. The wine is, much like Barbera, a great palate cleanser. It would go superbly well with ribs, steak, pizza and any pasta-and-tomato-sauce combination. A natural match with any of these.

It pours with a clear, pale straw colour. 12% alc./vol. The nose has the typical spicy/rosewater nose of Gewürztraminer, with a hint of the aromas typical of Riesling and Vidal—though this is varietal Traminette.

A bright, lemony acidity sweeps the palate, fanning out to reveal lemony, floral fruit and a balancing residual sweetness. There's lots of floral flavour in this wonderful Michigan wine. Crisp and off-dry, it works both as a standalone sipper and with food.

It went well with herbed, grilled chicken breast. A good buy, and a good representation of the Traminette grape.Paul Bulashttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-35001235088587934322014-05-30T21:12:00.003-04:002016-06-04T18:11:30.705-04:002013 Peller Estates Baco Noir (Ontario VQA)The 2013 Peller Estates Baco Noir pours with a deep, dark garnet core that turns bright ruby at the meniscus.

The bouquet shows fantastic aromas of plums, prunes and brackish, wild, Vitis riparia. The texture has a bright, clean, crisp, invigorating and tart entry with tart blue plum flavours that fan across the palate. There's excellent fruitiness.

The texture is warm, balanced, clean and cleansing, with acidity leading and tannin playing back-up.

The finish is crisp all the way across the palate, with a clean and bright personality. There's prune jam and tartness on the finish.

This Baco has 12.5% alc./vol. It costs $10.95 and can be found on regular list at the LCBO. It's bottled with a screwcap closure.

An excellent, clean Baco...at an exemplary price!!Paul Bulashttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-4123179403124745382014-05-04T18:35:00.001-04:002015-12-19T23:08:08.224-05:002010 Frogpond Farm Organic Winery Chambourcin (Ontario VQA)
Varietal Chambourcin is rare in Ontario - so when this wine caught my eye recently, I knew that I just had to give it a try. Not only is it one of the few examples of this variety in Ontario, but the wine is also organic - always a good thing.

The wine pours with a beautiful, clear dark ruby colour; it is translucent yet has a dark tone all the same. The nose is very light; just some red currant and possibly some light cherry fruit. I pick up no oak on the nose at all; a pity, as I think that this wine would have benefited immensely from some oak aging.

On the entry, the Chambourcin is light and tart with brisk yet well-apportioned acidity. It's quite palate-cleansing, much like its other hybrid cousins (e.g. Baco and Foch - though Baco tends to be quite a bit more tart). The mid-palate is mildly warm (12.4% alc./vol.), acid-driven and cleansing. The finish is light and short.

If you were to compare this to a vinifera wine, Barbera or Chianti would be fair benchmarks.

I do think that this wine would have benefited from 8-10 months of oak contact - even if it meant using oak chips instead of barrels. The oak vanillins would add a welcome extra dimension to the whole package.

Even so, I am delighted to have discovered this wine. It will be on my "watch for" list from now on.

It retails for $14 at the LCBO.Paul Bulashttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-72894793470498278822014-04-13T18:18:00.000-04:002014-04-14T21:37:22.527-04:002010 Sue Ann Staff Baco Noir (Ontario VQA)This is a relatively new Baco in Ontario's wine scene. It hails from the Jordan area in the Niagara Peninsula.

Screwcap closure; a light, 10.8% alc./vol.

The Baco pours with a clear, dark ruby colour and a black-cherry hue; it is translucent at the core and pinkish-ruby at the meniscus, with decent tears.

Swirling brings out pleasantly brackish, funky V. riparia aromas that waft about on the nose (and that are interestingly reminiscent of Cynthiana).

There's the lithe, tart acidity, that is so very typical of Baco; but even with that and the low alcohol, there is good balance. The mouth feel is invigorating and zingy.

Sour-cherry fruit wraps up the finish, with additional brackish replays.

$14.95 on general list at the LCBO - the same price as Henry of Pelham's Baco.Paul Bulashttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-43289983772747432262014-01-11T16:42:00.000-05:002017-02-18T21:00:48.906-05:00New-Generation Cold-Climate Wines at Hoity Toity CellarsIn the autumn of 2013, I visited Hoity Toity Cellars, located near Mildmay, in Ontario's Bruce County. I had been interested in the winery for some time because they are growing some newer-generation hybrid grapes, such as: Louise Swenson, Frontenac, Frontenac Gris and Marquette.

The last time I had tried any of these wines was years ago - and in fact I had never tried Frontenac Gris before at all - so I was quite interested in learning more about the winery and these thoroughly modern wines. The new-generation hybrids are particularly interesting to study as they are enabling viticulture in parts of Canada where it had been limited or not practiced at all.

 The 2011 Community Harvest (Frontenac) is the first straight Ontario Frontenac that I have ever tasted. Previously, I had only tasted one other Frontenac - grown in Minnesota - at a wine tasting in Michigan, in 2004.

The wine pours with a deep and dark ruby colour, with dense black-cherry highlights near the edge of the glass. It's a dark red wine, but is not inky in the way that the more common hybrids Baco and Foch can be.

Swirling brings out a very distinct candied-cherry nose - something that immediately reminds me of the aforementioned Minnesota-grown Frontenac. There are some minor rootsy hints in the nose as well. The acidity is much like that of Baco Noir: light, lithe and tart. On the entry, the acidity is immediately balanced by a touch of residual sweetness, but remains zingy and lively across the mid-palate. More candied cherry emerges there and is met by a fine-grained, light, tannic overlay. The mouthfeel is invigorating, tart and cleansing. At 12.1% alc./vol., there is just a slight warming aspect to the finish. The aftertaste is fruity and tangy.

This sort of lively, light, fruity texture seems to characterize varietal Frontenac.

$16; purchased at the winery.

The 2011 Kicked Out of the Country Club (Marquette) is the first straight Ontario-grown Marquette that I have ever tasted. Marquette is a new-generation red hybrid out of Minnesota.

The wine pours with a deep scarlet-garnet colour that lightens to a beautiful deep ruby at the edges of the glass. Aromas of pin cherries and spicy oak on the nose, with a hint of raspberry. Crisp texture, with mouthwatering acidity and spicy oak replays that carry through to the mid-palate. At this point, there is a very pleasant overlay of grainy tannin, adding a most pleasant structural element to the wine. The bright cherry flavours re-emerge on the finish, and are wrapped up in another subtle wave of spicy French oak. 10.8% alc./vol.

$20; purchased at the winery.

The 2012 Kicked Out of the Country Club (Marquette) pours with a black-magenta hue with deep-ruby highlights. Initially, some effervescence clings to the inside of the glass.

Aromas of candied cherry and some woodsy notes emerge from the bouquet, with hints of oak spice - an appealing bouquet. Good texture on the entry, with brisk, bright acidity, an overlay of firm tannin, and good warmth wrapping up the finish. More cherry flavours come in on the finish, and linger nicely as the finish fades.

This wine should be opened and decanted for a few hours to integrate. A very good, and promising, example of what Marquette can do in Ontario.

Disclaimer: I was given this bottle at the winery to review.

The 2012 Dusty White Glove (Frontenac Gris) was a new experience. I had never tried a wine made from Frontenac Gris before, due to its relative scarcity in Ontario. Frontenac Gris is a light-skinned mutation of the regular Frontenac grape. It may help to think of the relationship between the two varieties as akin to that between Pinot Gris and Pinot Noir.

The wine pours with a light, pale cantaloupe hue. Aromas of sweet pineapple, honeydew melon and peach emerge with swirling. There is a nice amount of effervescence on the inside of the glass as well.

This Frontenac Gris is great as an aperitif, but I am already thinking that it would go well with game bird (quail, pheasant) as it seems to have a certain heft despite its colour.

Pineapple flavours fan out across the palate, and the slight effervescence together with a balancing touch of residual sweetness, add a fine textural appeal. Clean, fruity and brisk on the finish. Very good.

$16; purchased at the winery.

Finally, a couple of cider notes. Although I dedicate this blog exclusively to hybrid grapes and their wines, I was also interested in the Hoity Toity ciders during my visit. They, too, are an interesting part of the winery's product line.

The Hoity Toity Cellars "Rusty Bling" Hard Cider, aptly named, has a rusty-copper colour with an orange-pink glint. It has a fine effervescence when poured and looks pretty and distinctive in the glass.

Although a fine aroma of Dolgo crab apples opens up on the nose, the acidity is not like that of Dolgo crabs but is actually tame and gentle on the palate. There is a welcome touch of crab apple tannin on the mid-palate, adding a lovely texture. The taste includes a bit of marmalade-like, orange-skin astringency on the mid-palate. That said, the cider isn't particularly sweet. At 7.2% alc./vol., there is a gentle warmth to the finish, which is clean and subtle.

Rusty Bling shows how tannic apples (in this case, crab apples) can help to create a cider with considerable structure. Rusty Bling works well with food: poultry or game birds would be a fine match.

$14; purchased at the winery.

The Hoity Toity Cellars "66 Pickup" Hard Cider is clearly made from different apples than the Rusty Bling. It has a pale, clear straw hue and looks bright and refreshing already in the bottle.

Clean, bright apple aromas emerge from the nose, and the cider is crisp and dry. It is very much a "champagne-style" cider, and there is not the sort of discernible tannic grip that is very evident in the intriguing Rusty Bling, with its crab apple influence.

You could drink this cider in place of a sparkling wine, or even a white wine - though I think cider is its own thing and as such, can easily guide a food choice, just as wine can be used to select an appropriate meal type.

I enjoyed my visit to Hoity Toity Cellars. Congratulations to the owner and staff for putting new-generation hybrid wines on Ontario's viticultural map.Paul Bulashttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-71753882854462516582013-11-24T17:55:00.001-05:002013-11-24T20:31:25.882-05:002012 Villa Nova Estate Aenigma

I recently visited Villa Nova Estate Winery, located in Ontario's Norfolk County. I had read about their wines online and wanted to try them - especially the Aenigma, which is a blend of Regent, Frontenac, and Cab Sauvignon.

Previous to this, I don't ever recall seeing a wine for sale in Ontario made using the Regent variety. Regent was created in Germany in 1967 by crossing Diana (Silvaner x Müller Thurgau) and Chambourcin (see here for more information). This is a very welcome addition to the wine scene in Ontario.

The 2012 Aenigma is interesting not just for the blend of grapes it consists of, but also for the fact that it is finished with Ontario white oak - something that is still a rarity here. I heartily applaud this decision to use locally sourced oak, both for the unique flavour profile and for the regional authenticity.

Aenigma pours with a beautiful, dense garnet colour that turns to deep magenta at the rim of the glass. Obviously, Regent has inherited the amazing pigmentation of other V. riparia-based hybrids. Fruity, spicy oak hints mingle with pepper-infused black cherry notes to create a very elegant bouquet. Moderate acidity leads the way, with a beautifully dry mid-palate on which superb puckery tannins flesh out broadly. Subtle oak-spice replays fan out at this point and linger prominently into the dry, tasty finish. The wine is 14% alc./vol. but everything is so well balanced that the finish displays just a gentle warmth.

This is a most excellent wine - one that I will be proud to serve on my dinner table in the future. An excellent blend with character, quality and structure. Once again - if you need a vinifera equivalent to gauge the style, think of the Chianti Classico style.

I would also add that this wine has clearly convinced me that Regent deserves a prominent place in Ontario's winescape: it produces an excellent red wine.

$14.50 per 750 ml bottle. Available at the winery only.Paul Bulashttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-4925319420687211172013-11-16T22:06:00.001-05:002013-11-16T22:06:15.238-05:002011 Coffin Ridge "Back From the Dead Red" (Ontario VQA)

According to the back label, this Foch-based blend consists of 78.5% Foch, 12.3% Merlot and 9.2% Cabernet (type not specified). The bottle is closed with a high-quality natural cork.

This Foch-based wine pours with a beautiful, inky beet-purple colour that is so typical of the grape. The nose of the wine is representative of Foch, with intense, spicy black-cherry, pinpoint blackcurrant and intriguing brackish aromas that speak to the V. riparia heritage of Foch.

There's zippy acidity on the entry, with expansive cherry and classic herbaceous flavours across the palate. On the mid-palate, a nice streak of tannin is noted, and this is likely provided by the Merlot and Cabernet component. The finish is zippy, but nicely balanced (12.5% alc./vol.). The wine has a superb blackcurrant bouquet, is quite dry, and is both flavourful and cleansing.

The blackcurrant aromas remind me of the Old Vines Foch that Inniskillin used to make in the 1990s: the very wine that turned me on to Ontario red hybrid wines.

A recommended, characterful red wine from Grey County.

The wine is available at Vintages at the time of writing (search for local availability via the LCBO Product ID: 260463). The wine sells for $17.

Konzelmann's 2012 Baco Noir pours with a black-garnet colour that fades to magenta near the rim of the glass. There's great colour in this Baco, as in virtually all Bacos. As with most reds, this wine needs some decanting to come into its own - and it actually integrated really well within a day of being opened.

On the nose are aromas of plum, and a briny, bacon-like note that makes me think of Syrah; there are also hints of fine brackish scents from the grape's Vitis riparia lineage.

On the entry there is light acidity that is quite mellow for a Baco. It's a good thing, as the wine shows exemplary balance. A nice overlay of fine-grained tannin covers the palate and is followed by moderate warmth (12% alc./vol.), leading to a pleasant finish.

The wine is said to be slightly oaked, but I think that more overt oak would do the wine very well. Baco handles oak very well, and the oak adds not only wood tannins but additional olfactory and gustatory layers.

Konzelmann's Baco is bottled in a one-litre size and is available at the winery only, for $11.95.

The 2011 Konzelmann Vidal Golden Vintage pours with a beautiful clear straw colour, showing light yellow highlights in the glass.

Aromas of passion fruit, papaya, ripe pineapple and pine needles on the nose show that alliteration need not take the first letter of the grape's name...(!)

Ripe, sweet pineapple flavours lead on the entry; a touch of residual sugar moderates acidity that is refreshing and in fine balance. A tangerine flavour emerges on the mid-palate and offers some pleasant citrus-rind replays on the finish, which wraps up with just a touch of warmth (12 % alc./vol.).

Konzelmann's Vidal is one of my favourite examples of varietal Ontarian Vidal table wine. It shows how versatile the Vidal grape is in Ontario's winescape. Vidal produces wines across the full spectrum: from dry, crisp table wines, to off-dry ones like this one; and, finally, late-harvest dessert wines and the pinnacle - icewine.

This creatively named red from the Beamsville area of the Niagara Peninsula is a blend comprising 91% Chambourcin (!), 5% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Franc.

The wine pours with a translucent, deep ruby colour. Aromas of hickory on redcurrant; a light nose. Light and quite tart on the entry, with some tannin coming in on the mid-palate. Cleansing and invigorating all across the palate. A gentle warmth emerges on the aft-palate (12.5% alc./vol.), with more hickory-like replays. A light-bodied red with good verve.

I was quite surprised to see a majority-Chambourcin VQA wine when I visited Aure. The last straight Chambourcin that I remember in Ontario was from Grape Tree Estate around the turn of the century. Although that winery made other wines as well, it was not around for a long time.

If you need a vinifera-oriented benchmark for this wine, I'd once again look to Northern Italy, as is the case with many red hybrids. Baco and Foch are heavier in texture than this Chambourcin-based blend, but as with those two, you wouldn't be wrong to think of this as being broadly akin to a lithe, bright Barbera - one that would go well with pizza or pasta.

This wine is available at the winery only, for $11.50.Paul Bulashttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-21175266706428039422013-10-19T23:16:00.002-04:002013-10-19T23:25:15.343-04:002012 Reif Estate Vidal (Ontario VQA)

The 2012 Reif Vidal pours with a very light, pale greenish straw colour. Initially shy on the nose, the wine showed more of a bouquet a day after being opened and kept in the fridge.

After it warmed up and upon being swirled in the glass, the Vidal revealed clean, light pineapple aromas and a hint of pine needles. The entry is clean, crisp and light; some tangerine rind (common to Vidal table wines) shows up on the fore-palate. Very crisp and dry on the finish, with some warmth rounding it out (12% alc./vol.). Apparently, this wine has 10 g/L of residual sugar (as per the LCBO product description), but it tastes drier.

Overall, this is a light-bodied Vidal. It works really well as an aperitif, but also with any main course calling for a light, dry white wine.

Purchased for $9.95 on general list at the LCBO.

I like to think of Vidal being to Ontario what Grüner Veltliner is to Austria: a regionally recognizable grape that may not be one of the "mainstream" varieties, but that can be counted on to produce quality table wine with a defined character.

Vidal is, in fact, a very versatile grape: it produces everything from icewines to late-harvest wines, off-dry table wines - and dry crisp wines, like this one. It's well worth checking out.

The Scotch Block Halton Hills Blanc is a relatively new wine. It pours with a very clear, pale straw colour and some minor effervescence along the bottom of the glass. It has a very pretty hue in the glass.

Upon swirling the glass, aromas of pineapple, cantaloupe and honeydew emerge; some citrus-rind notes and pine needle can be picked up as well. It's a fresh, crisp, inviting nose.

There's excellent balance right on the entry, with crisp acidity and just a slight residual sweetness. The wine is crisp and balanced, with good flavour replay. It's a well structured and substantive white wine that goes with just about anything calling for a white dinner wine. The wine comes in at 11% alc./vol.

The citrus/lemon-rind notes continue along the palate and right into the finish. There is some slight warmth, and the finish is clean and cleansing.

Based on the Cayuga White grape variety, this is one of the best white wines I've had from Scotch Block to-date. Available at the winery only, and highly recommended.

I had been wanting to try Sandbanks' Baco for quite some time. Having seen the Reserve recently, I bought it for Victoria Day weekend ($19.95 on general list at the LCBO; Product ID: 225920).

This Baco Reserve pours to reveal a dark garnet colour with a ruby tint that appears nearer the meniscus. Strong barrel aromas emerge over Baco's sour hickory and brackish bouquet. Brisk, strong acidity signals the entry. Plenty of oak character mingles with the tart, lithe and laser-like focus of the acid-driven structure. There's an invigorating, Barbera-like tartness, with plum and hickory replays; a bit of warmth (13% alc./vol.), and a mouth-cleansing finale, with more oak replays drawing the proverbial curtains.

While the wine initially seemed a bit tart for a 2010 reserve, it did settle down and integrate with some decanting (2+ hrs).Paul Bulashttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-5220015858156703113.post-52973487627964202312013-04-21T18:44:00.002-04:002013-11-08T20:04:10.078-05:002011 20 Bees Baco Noir (Ontario VQA)The wine pours with a beautiful dark garnet core and a magenta meniscus. The aromas are very Baco - but more in a fruity rather than funky way: bright raspberries cloaked in cherries; crispy bacon aromas round it all out. Tart, juicy, invigoratingly brisk entry; mouth-filling, cleansing acidity dominates the texture. Light bodied and tartish, but balanced. Diminutive tannins carry through on the mid-palate, and are followed by a wave of warmth across the aft-palate. The flavours all but peter out at this point; there is no strong or dominant flavour on the finish. I cannot pick up any oak in this wine.

This light Baco was purchased for less than ten bucks on general list at the LCBO. It is 12.5% alc./vol. and has been bottled with a screwcap closure. This would make a very decent pizza wine. As with all Bacos, it has that palate-cleansing quality that is particularly good if you're having cuts of meat that have some fat on them.

NEW YORK (CBS.MW) - First Albany raised its stock price target on Guess GES, +2.98% to $20 from $17, and reiterated its "buy" rating, on the expectation of strong March same-store sales and "significant" operating margin expansion. "We believe significant further upward earnings revisions should fuel stock price appreciation from current levels, particularly helped by incremental improvement at the wholesale level," analyst Gabrielle Kivitz said in a note to clients. She expects the apparel retailer to report March same-store sales growth of 10 to 12 percent. The stock closed Monday up 19 cents at $17.81.

Cinema's Grove
AUTHOR/WRITER: Uldaonin
Just few minutes to New Year while everyone was making their New Year resolutions I had made a bucket list of what I wanted to achieve the following year but you know that regular saying "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." I included in my list one of my most craved fantasy of a perfect date. I want to get a beautiful worthwhile date from any nice guy whom I find charmingly handsome and attractive but with no strings attached, "no strings attached." You know what I mean, that very moment when a single independent girl wants to have some fun, enjoy around and probably get fucked? Though I knew how impossible it will be that year because I am often not the choice guys seek and of course Tania always had stories to tell about the good romantic guys. That girl like boys too much, she always have gist of guys. Work has been stressful, hustling as an independent woman is not easy. Tania and I had planned on go on a vacation during our one week leave from work. We were going to do some hook ups and have careless fun.
Oops I almost forgot, I'm Annie and my best friend is Tania. I was a nerd all through my schooling years in the university. The only person who seemed to understand me and always fill me up on what I am missing socially is my one and only best friend who is just the opposite of me in every respect. Tania and I made agreement to start our off by going to a cinema to watch the latest most anticipated movie for the New Year. I got to the mall at around 11:30 expecting my best friend and I could have some fun before the movie time. I called Tania and she apologized pleading she will be late and I should have fun before she came. "What the heck? Who the heck says that? Who the heck was I supposed to have fun with? With who was I supposed to have fun with? All this questions have been ragging through my mind. With no answers to them, the process of waiting in frustration and boredom for Tania to come started becoming agony as I wanted to give her a piece of my angry mind. Is this not this embarrassing? Where the heck was Tania? I am painfully not surprised; she was used to disappointing at the very moment of need. She even promised this time, what a bitch! So, I walked across the mall in anger hoping I could get a cold bottle of drink to calm my angry nerves. But the next movie was starting soon, would I be able to watch it alone? Oh my gad I felt so uneasy, nobody to talk to, no one to tell my observations too, and no one to laugh at the movie with. Should I just go home in disappointment, I could just wait up a bit to see if she could make it before the next movie started. I checked in on my time and just then I heard a deep manly voice say "are you waiting on someone?" I just knew it was one of those guys, I felt irritation mix with my anger. These boys who come to the mall looking for whores they could buy a drink and get into their pants. Those dirty minded pussy mongers in search for shallow idiots who will fall prey. In anger I turned, "do I look like those…" I bit the words back. My God! How do I explain this, turning back with the flash of anger in my eyes, the only thing I felt was pouring out the anger in me. As I looked up, I looked into a pretty face, he stunned me. He seemed like the guy I've been waiting for all my life. The handsome nice guy I couldn't see his face in my dreams, I just couldn't stop smiling. He was a dark skinned, basketball tall, pink sexy lipped, sexily handsome, his smell, his voice, that charisma as well as that boxed look which carried air of confidence made him seem like a perfect match. "If you don't mind can I keep your company before he or she arrived?" he asked in a smooth crisp Nigerian English. He will make you feel proud of being a Nigerian. "Even if it was the whole year you want to stay, you are welcomed! I even need company and your advance is welcomed" I answered smiling. We walked around smiling, talking and getting to know each other better. At some point, he threw some joke and I laughed. I brought out my phone and gave a quick test to Tania. "Where the hell are you? Do you want us to miss the ticket I paid for?" She replied "Annie give me more time, babe I'm almost there just 10 minutes please!" Time? Did she just say time? The third movie is about to start and she dared to ask more time. Seeming to notice my anguish, the guy said "It seems like I could use more time with you!" I replied in monotone "I'll be delighted." He said "okay then let's go in for the movie."
We went in for the movie and settled at the edge of the down row. I wanted to able to catch that bitch firsthand when she enters here. We got comfortable and soon our attention was drawn into the movie. It was a helpless romantic movie with a lot of romantic and sexually oriented scenes which will make your chest tighten making the sex hormone in your body rise and become active. I could feel goose bumps spread all over my body; I could feel my boobs swell in my bra and my nipple standing as well. I felt a funny movement of opening and closing in my vagina, I could feel myself get all wet and slimy down there. I looked over my shoulder to see his face as the muffled moans poured out the cinemas speaker. I don't know what he must have been feeling but we found ourselves in the toilet panties down. I was like we were under a spell, in a moment I was holding the W.C with my skirt hiked up over my waist and his dick out ready to plunge. I took a step back as I bent to grab the W.C; he seemed to like what he saw. He tapped my ass a little and I felt it giggle. I was wet as fuck and I will do anything to get fucked right now. He slapped my ass again and this time harder, it stung. The pain and the waiting made me get wetter. He came forward and took a sumptuous grab of that ass as he slowly entered me. He felt warm and full and he slowly stretched out my pussy. He moaned "you are fucking warm and tight girl." It has been months since I last had sex and this was glorious. He started to pick pace and the feel of him romping in and out of me was driving me nuts. While at it, we did our introduction and he told me his name while I murmured mine. I don't think he would have caught it in-between those moans. It was a hot sex I couldn't have remembered his name. He stopped and we exchanged positions. He sat on the W.C and I sat on him. He slowly lowered my waist into him and he slowly carried me up and down his shaft. I placed my hands on both walls as the urgency his dick started to grip me. I wanted him to go faster and faster. He moved his hands up to my breast and started squeezing. I was left to drive myself in and out at my own pace. I sat on him hard and fast and withdrew just as fast. I could feel my breath shortened and he unbuttoned my shirt to fondle with my breast. Oh damn! He moaned he was going to cum soon so I stood from his dick and knelt in front of him. I gingerly placed my hands around his dick swiping it up and down gently. I spat in the head and used my hand to smear it on him going fast. He closed his eyes and curled his toes and he moaned more vigorously he was about to cum. And I kept more spittle on it and tried going faster, he shot his load and it landed atop my breast. I kept up the hand job but slowed it down. He was visibly shaking and shuddering. We were done like nothing ever happened so we walked down the mall where I met with Tania and they exchanged pleasantries and we all parted ways. "Hmm, you are glowing Annie! What the fuck happened?" Tania asked me. I wanted to frown and form serious but I could not. I was just smiling like a sheep. "You know what we will discuss it at home." I said it with pleading in my eyes. I know she will find me out if she kept up with the probe. Tania moved closer to me and whispered "he fucked you Annie!" she stepped back and looked at my face. As if her village people had pressed her button she screamed "yes!" She quickly kept herself in check and moved closed again whispering "you will tell me the full gist when we are home! Whew, my friend just got fucked! Hehe!" I knew I had lots to tell Tania, when we got home I still couldn't remember his name.

Korea Republic sack Uli Stielike
- Author: Rogelio Becker Jun 17, 2017,
Jun 17, 2017, 7:32
South Korea have sacked their long-serving head coach Uli Stielike after a series of poor results in the 2018 World Cup qualifying.
After the 3-2 loss against Qatar on Tuesday, the Korean Football Association made a decision to dismiss Uli Stielike from his position as head coach of the men's national football team during its technical committee meeting at the National Football Center in Paju on Thursday.
However, recent indifferent results on the road to Russian Federation 2018 - including a 1-0 defeat to China in March - have left Korea Republic's participation at what would be a tenth FIFA World Cup finals far from assured.
Lee said Stielike would probably be replaced by a South Korean coach, explaining time was too short for a foreigner to get to know the team before next year's World Cup.
Stielike, 62, took over the team in September 2014. "With just three months to go until the final qualifying match and the World Cup just a year off, it will be easier for a Korean to develop an understanding with the players", he said. Lee Yong Soo, chairman of the Korean Football Association (KFA), also resigned in a shake-up ahead of South Korea's final two qualifying games.
"I think every national football team head coach is an expert, and one year would be enough to build the team for the 2018 World Cup", he said.
But trouble set in during Asia's final round of World Cup qualifiers, especially when they lost 0-1 to China in March - only their second loss to the Chinese in 32 games.
South Korea host already-qualified Iran in their penultimate qualifier in late August before a trip to Uzbekistan in the final round of matches in early September. South Korea play Iran and then Uzbekistan in their final two games.
In Asian qualifying, the top two from each of the two groups will advance directly to the 2018 World Cup in Russian Federation.
Concerns were raised when Tottenham Hotspur forward Son Heung-min left the pitch clutching his arm during an global clash on Tuesday.

I was previously posting on oregon live - the tiny news outlet in Portland, Oregon that has become a tabloid instead of a news organization. oregon live has made it clear they are Kaine Horman's "team players" and will not allow posts on their comment section that even mentions Kaine Horman's boyfriend let alone theories that Kaine Horman was responsible for disappearing his son. At the same time they allow all sorts of theories and speculation about Terri Horman. They also allow the Pink Triangle Mob to harass those who do not go along with the mob "Terri did it, lets lynch her" mentality of so many others.
Here is how Kaine Horman has manipulated and controlled the media:

Give Module Reviews Recently Reviewed!
Like flying a 747
Likely Extremely
Pros: This software can do almost anything. The features are endless, and it's 100% customizable. If you need something from customer support, they're usually pretty quick and responsive. My colleagues who've used several other platforms are all impressed by the possibilities and options that aren't available on other systems.
Cons: Because there are so many possibilities, it really is like being in the cockpit of a 747. It's incredibly complex, and not at all user friendly. Also, since it's so customized, there's very little standard training materials available.
Overall ok.
Pros: I most like the database. We run many applications through the software, creating an excellent platform from which to draw data for research, advocacy and program evaluation.
Cons: The un-intuitive functionality. The software is not user-friendly for people who do not have deep database experience. Formal training modules would help.
I utilize this software for grant programs - applications and panels.
Likely Extremely
Pros: The customer service and assistance from Jungle Laser associated with the software is great - timely, personalized and willingness to help.
Cons: It is not user friendly or intuitive and can often times seem glitchy and difficult to determine how each function works
Great product
Likely Extremely
Pros: With the product, I like how easy it is to use. For the vendor, I appreciate the quick reponse time when I call with a question.
Cons: What I like least about the product is that it crashed a few times.
Recommendations to other buyers: I recommend that they do quite a bit of research to make sure they have found the right product for them.
Likely Extremely
Comments: Keep it up
Pros: It value for money and good to use .easy to use and better concepts. It has its own features and advantages
Cons: Better to use , it gives long life and comfortable. It features are Fanta. Very very easy to use the product
Money goes in but doesn't come out
Likely Extremely
Pros: The website is user friendly and easily navigated.
Cons: I have been trying for months to get monies from this organization that are matched funds. A parent at our school donates and their company matches the funds through this organization. I've been trying to get the monies for over a month now. I'm beginning to think that this is a tactic - another person might just give up.
Recommendations to other buyers: If you are a corporation looking to find a company to handle your company matching benefits program - I would consider looking elsewhere.
Good for those who don't know where to start
Likely Extremely
Pros: This is a great application for those who don't know how to start being a philanthropist. It's easy to use and you can include secondary parties in on the funding and what not
Cons: It has a few quirks that need to be fixed, sometimes the program can glitch.. also it's jot the easiest o use without prior training

On detection, the Aggregator will re-allocate resting orders to consume the liquidity, using the user-specified configurations.
- Autospreader with an Aggregator leg — You can configure Autospreader with one or more legs set to use an Aggregator. Autospreader treats the Aggregator leg as if it were a regular outright leg.
After creating an aggregated instrument, it is available to trade using the Instrument Explorer in the following windows:
- MD Trader
- Market Grid
In addition to trading aggregators using MD Trader, you can drag and drop aggregated instruments from the Aggregator Manager window to the Market Grid.
Note: When trading aggregated instruments in simulation mode, certain restrictions apply.
Aggregator Components
The following components make up Aggregator:
The Manager dialog box is your interface for all of your created aggregator instruments. It is takes you to the Configuration dialog box where you can create new aggregated instruments, edit existing ones, and set specific aggregator parameters.
Note: In addition to trading spreads using MD Trader, you can drag and drop aggregated instruments from the Aggregator Manager window to the Market Grid.
Creating an Aggregator Customer
In the Customer Defaults window, do the following:
- Choose AlgoSE in the Market field
- Type a valid account number
- Click to select the SEL field
- Optionally, select an Algo Strategy Engine in the Order GW field.
Once these customer names and accounts are created, choose the customer name for the aggregated instrument from the drop-down list in either the Aggregator MD Trader or the Market Grid.
Aggregator automatically applies the correct customer account information to the legs and aggregated instrument when you submit the order. Aggregator orders can be filtered by account in the Order Book and Fill Window.

Between my travels, I earned a BA in Sociology and obtained a great deal of experience in the world of adventure travel. I have been on the front lines with Quark Expeditions since 2009, helping prospective travelers decide which polar expedition best suits their needs, and I have also fit in a few polar expeditions of my own, including Antarctic Explorer, Antarctic Express: Fly the Drake, Arctic Watch Wilderness Lodge, Introduction to Spitsbergen: Polar Bear Safari, and the amazing North Pole: The Ultimate Arctic Adventure!
What is one of your favorite memories of the polar regions?
Standing at the top of the world at the North Pole, and flying above the 50 Years of Victory in the ship's helicopter, watching the vessel break through meters-thick ice! There's nothing else like it.
What advice would you give someone traveling to the polar regions?
Every corner of the Arctic and Antarctic holds something unique and different. Whether it's big ice, fjords, wildlife or hiking, the Polar Regions offer a multitude experiences that are sure to make any visit there the trip of your lifetime.


text: Combat begins between the group and they realize after several attempts that their attacks simply do not connect with either enemy and the enemies' attacks inflict no harm. Inixia charges off and destroys the remaining supply buildings, finding rations and other equipment. Zaekai uses detect magic and realizes that the creatures before them are made up of some type of necromantic energy. Unable to restrain these bugbears, they move toward each other once more and Zaekai sees the auras overlap. Suddenly, they inflict some serious damage and are susceptible to damage themselves. At this point, Inixia breaks the last building down and discovers a truly strange darkness that emanates from inside. Deciding to not investigate further, she decides to head back to the rest of the group who exchange fierce blows with the conjured bugbears. Lord Victor in Grace Grove, uses a powerful magic to restore the strength and abilities of the group as they continue their onslaught. The magical bugbears are slowly being bested by the party's effort, and they begin to split apart from each other. Kato uses a flight ability to chase the one fleeing into the forest while Inixia tries to grapple the one heading the opposite way into the camp. They cannot keep up with these creatures of speed, the one before Kato hides and he heads back to the camp. The one Inixia was keeping inside Cedrick's swarm simply disappears from sight. Some anger sets in as they kill some of the remaining, cowardly bugbears. While the depression of defeat sets in to the main party, Airl's powers awaken during intense combat and the citizens continue to flee toward the camp they setup earlier that day.
