I don't text, therefore I don't tweet. Maybe if Descartes were alive today he might say something like that. I just never saw the point of Twitter – heck I'm probably past the 140 character limit already and I haven't really said anything. So what am I doing on Twitter? I probably still don't "get it," but I think I see how it might be useful.
I come across interesting things that relate to wine all the time. News, blogs, talking to people, or what have you. It's an interesting world and by paying attention I end up with a lot of scribbled notes, bookmarks, and half-remembered conversations. If I have enough time, interest, and knowledge some of this turns into blog posts. The rest? Well I can't just say, "here's a link that might lead to something." What kind of a post would that be?
Then it hit me. It wouldn't be a post at all – it would be a tweet!
That got me thinking about twitter some more, and I realized it could complement my blog feed. Anyone can subscribe to the feed. It's easy, it's free and it automatically notifies you every time there's a new post. There's even a separate feed for comments. No need to check back manually to see if there's a new post or if someone responded to your comment. But sometimes I update old posts as I learn more about the topic, and there's no good way for people to monitor that.
Unless maybe I tweeted about it.
So I've experimenting with twitter, and I think it might be useful. You can click here to follow me on twitter to find out about new posts, updates to old posts, and links that might be interesting. In the meantime, I'll try to find a good profile picture. And maybe figure out what all those numbers and abbreviations mean!

SIPTU say decision to take industrial action was "a last resort"
The Iarnród Éireann Trade Union Group have announced five days of industrial action as a dispute with management over pay escalates.
All days will feature a 24-hour work stoppage, full withdrawal of labour and the placing of pickets.
November 14 is the date of Ireland's huge World Cup play-off clash with Denmark in Dublin.
In a statement accompanying the announcement they said: "Following a meeting this afternoon, the trade union group representing all workers at Irish Rail, in pursuance of a long overdue flat pay award, have decided to serve notice on the company for the following series of industrial actions."
Iarnród Éireann also issued a statement where they said that management "regrets the decision by a group of unions including SIPTU, NBRU, TSSA and Unite, to schedule five 24-hour strikes during November and December.
"The company has reiterated that the talks at the WRC arose from a Labour Court recommendation, which stated that if at the end of the WRC process there were outstanding issues of difference, they should be referred back to the Labour Court for a final recommendation."
Talks between management and unions at the Workplace Relations Commission broke down late on Thursday night.
Irish Rail said it offered 1.75pc increase for one year, to be facilitated by measures including performance management, absenteeism management, revisions to redeployment policy and payroll and committed to further discussion.
However, SIPTU members in Irish Rail voted overwhelmingly in favour of industrial action.
SIPTU members voted by 84oc in favour of industrial action in a ballot that was counted today in Liberty Hall.
SIPTU TEAC Division Organiser, Greg Ennis, said: "SIPTU representatives met with officials of the four other trade unions in the Irish Rail Group of Unions this afternoon.
NBRU members voted by a margin of 93pc t in favour.

Q: SQL LEFT JOIN using alias name Just started working on Oracle SQL and trying to use left join. Getting following error, plz help.
select usr_grpid as "usr_role_role_id"
from users
left join user_role on users.usr_role_role_id = user_role.usr_role_role_id;

Error Message:

ORA-00904: "USERS"."USR_ROLE_ROLE_ID": invalid identifier
  00904. 00000 -  "%s: invalid identifier"

Actually column name of first table is different then second table though the data is same.

A: select usr_grpid as "usr_role_role_id"
from `users`
left join user_role on `users`.usr_role_role_id = user_role.usr_role_role_id;

or
select usr_grpid as "usr_role_role_id"
from users usr
left join user_role on usr.usr_role_role_id = user_role.usr_role_role_id;

A: Try this:-
select users.usr_grpid
from users
left join user_role on users.usr_grpid = user_role.usr_grpid;

Note:
 Please don't use the alias for the column in the join, use the actual column name instead.

A: Besides not using allian is join condition, as the both tables are using same column to join, you may also use a NATURAL LEFT JOIN
SELECT usr_grpid
FROM users
NATURAL LEFT JOIN user_role;

but it would be helpful to have allias for each table to specify from which table to get the value.
something like this:
SELECT a.usr_grpid
FROM users a
NATURAL LEFT JOIN user_role b;

Silence Dogood here. In scenic PA, where our friend Ben and I now live, a dinner of roast pork and sauerkraut on New Year's Eve is supposed to bring good luck throughout the new year. But in our native South, eating black-eyed peas and greens is the secret to ensuring good luck in the coming year.
There's just one problem: We both hate black-eyed peas, and as for cooked greens, spinach is about the beginning and end as far as we're concerned. (We do love kale and mustard greens, but raw in salads, not cooked. And we're not counting lightly sauteed arugula or cabbage, which we both love. Neither would be considered traditional in our native Nashville.) OFB still talks about being forced to eat a tablespoon of black-eyed peas every New Year's Eve, and as for me, my Mama was lucky to force even one pea down my throat.
My brother reminded me of my famous black-eyed pea aversion earlier this week, and it made me stop and think. OFB and I love beans. And black-eyed peas are actually beans. So why don't we love them? In my case, it may have been texture sensitivity: the black-eyed peas at my household were always cooked until they were slippery-mushy, the texture I loathe most. In OFB's case, an aversion to ham and lack of any flavoring in his mama's black-eyed peas except ham may have been the culprit. Clearly, it was time for reevaluation.
A dish with the colorful name of Hoppin' John is the classic way to serve black-eyed peas. The peas are cooked with ham or fatback and a lot of crushed red pepper (let's hope that's where the hoppin' part of Hoppin' John comes from) , then served over rice or grits, or rice is added to the peas during the cooking process. Being a vegetarian, this method was definitely out as far as I was concerned, and besides, it didn't sound too flavorful. Not to mention that OFB would hate it.
Time for some serious research: Heading over to my good friend Google, I searched for vegetarian Hoppin' John recipes. And there were plenty, some classified as vegetarian, some as vegan (though they were actually all vegan—no meat or dairy products). But none of them was really a Hoppin' John. Some cooked the black-eyed peas in barbecue sauce, some served them up with tomato sauce, some cooked them with a passel of veggies, including tomatoes, bell peppers, and celery, many dumped in pseudo-meats, from pseudo-sausage to pseudo-bacon, one added a bottle of dark beer and some liquid smoke, another stuffed them into collard rolls. These recipes all looked pretty good (except for the pseudo-meat, yuck), but they certainly weren't Hoppin' John.
Hmmm. It looked like my problem was that I was limiting my concept of black-eyed peas to Hoppin' John. Perhaps it was time to regroup, to step back, to think about black-eyed peas separately from the famous dish. Back to Google I went to search for black-eyed pea recipes. Meanwhile, I'd made an intriguing discovery: besides dried and canned black-eyed peas, some of the Hoppin' John recipes had called for frozen black-eyed peas. Well, I thought, perhaps the texture of frozen black-eyed peas would be more beanlike and less slippery-mushy than canned or cooked-up from dried beans. I was now on a mission from God.
Again, Google didn't disappoint. My favorite of the recipes that turned up in this batch was a black-eyed pea/potato taco. But no, I just wanted a recipe for black-eyed peas and rice. Rushing to the grocery yesterday before the snowstorm that's battering us today, I found something even better than frozen black-eyed peas: fresh black-eyed peas! I couldn't believe my eyes, but there they were in 11-ounce plastic clamshell packs. I snapped one up. By dab, by grab, I was going to make Ben and myself something we could actually eat for New Year's Eve, even if I had to invent it from thin air!
Thinking things through, this is what I came up with. I'll simmer the black-eyed peas in veggie stock until they're tender, adding a splash of Tabasco Chipotle Sauce or Pickapeppa to give them a little heat, and some Trocomare or Herbamare for saltiness and additional flavor. Once they're almost done, I'll brown some butter in a saucepan and saute some sweet onions with thyme, oregano, and basil. Meanwhile, I'll cook basmati rice in our rice cooker. (And long before any of this, I'll have put sweet potatoes in the oven to bake along with a dish of cored apples in cider with butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and raisins for dessert.) And yes, I'll cook some spinach and serve it up with balsamic vinegar and salt as a side dish. Finally, I'll make a really hearty, crunchy winter salad.
Just before serving, I'll stir the sauteed onions and butter into the black-eyed peas, then top the peas with shredded cheese and stir it in. (Checking the fridge, I see that I have shredded sharp white Cheddar, shredded Asiago, shredded Parmesan, and shredded 5-cheese Italian. I suspect I'd have chosen shredded mozzarella if I'd had any, but I think I'll use the shredded Italian, which will have mozzarella as well as Asiago, Parmesan, and Romano. Guess I'd better see what the fifth cheese is!) Then I'll spoon the thick pea mixture over the rice, top it with sliced scallions (green onions) or fresh cilantro, and voila! Black-Eyed Peas a la Silence.
Will they be any good? Er, who knows, but if not, there'll be more rice and the baked sweet potatoes, spinach, and baked apples to fill the gap. And tradition holds that just by tasting them, we'll have brought ourselves good luck for the coming year!
I'll admit while I'm at it that another concept I found intriguing was a black-eyed pea salad. If I were making one, I'd cook the peas until tender but still holding their shape, then let them cool. Meanwhile, I'd tear some Romaine lettuce into bite-size pieces (or, gulp, open a bag of prepared Romaine) and pour them into a big salad bowl. Then I'd chop up tomatoes, yellow bell pepper, cucumber, sweet onion, and scallions (green onion) in a big bowl, add the cooled black-eyed peas, pour extra-virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar on top, sprinkle oregano, thyme, and basil on lavishly, along with plenty of salt (we like RealSalt) or Trocomare, stir all well to blend thoroughly, pour it over the bed of Romaine, and serve. Knowing me, I'd probably sprinkle shredded Parmesan over the finished salad before serving. Yum!
What are your New Year's traditions? Please share them with us. And a very happy, blessed, and lucky new year to you and yours!
Silence Dogood here. On our way home from North Carolina, our friend Ben and I made the ritual late-lunch stop at Mrs. Rowe's, a locally famous restaurant outside Staunton, Virginia. One reason we enjoy stopping there (besides the homestyle cooking) is that next door is a shop that sells pottery, wooden ware, artwork, books, crafts, soaps, and many other delightful things, all made in Virginia. There's also an excellent assortment of regional foods, from smoked hams, seafood dips, and peanuts to grits, jellies, honey, and handmade candy. And this trip, there was a simply wonderful regional cookbook that—to OFB's despair—ended up coming home to join the legions already bursting from our kitchen bookshelves.
Why did I feel that I just had to have yet another cookbook, you ask? (Or, at least, OFB asked.) Well, The Best of Virginia Farms Cookbook & Tour Book by CiCi Williamson isn't just any cookbook. It contains recipes from family farms, local B&Bs, and great plantations, including the homes of Washington, Jefferson, and Lee. Not to mention historic recipes from one of my very favorite places, Colonial Williamsburg.
But the recipes, though authentic and delightful, aren't the only reason I wanted this book. Every page is packed with little-known information about the ingredients used in the recipes (did you know that turkey farming, as opposed to turkey hunting, originated in Virginia?), tips, interviews with Virginia farmers and chefs, and "tours" of great places to visit such as the Museum of American Frontier Culture and the historic home of the Lees, Stratford Hall. There's even an "interview" with Thomas Jefferson. If you live in or near Virginia or simply enjoy passing through the beautiful and historic state, as we do, you'll find a wealth of places to visit, eat, and stay, all with contact information (including websites).
Getting back to those recipes, if you're expecting grits and biscuits, think again. From Hope & Glory Pate, Steeles Tavern Manor Country Inn's Lemon-Turkey Cutlets, Hungarian-Style Emu Goulash, and Georgetown Bison Fajitas to Martha Washington Inn's She-Crab Soup, President John Tyler's "Tyler Pudding" (actually a coconut pie), Shields Tavern Syllabubs, Wayside Inn Wine-and-Cheese Soup, and Hotel Roanoke Peanut Soup, the vast diversity of indigenous Virginia produce is on display.
Unlike traditional chickpea hummus, this lima bean hummus is a beautiful pale green.
Cook lima beans as package directs. (If cooking fresh lima beans, cook until thoroughly soft.) Drain, save cooking water, and allow to cool. In a food processor, combine all ingredients except garnish and reserved cooking water and puree. Add 1 to 4 tablespoons reserved cooking liquid to make an easily spreadable mixture. Refrigerate. Hummus will thicken upon refrigeration. Bring to room temperature before serving and top with your garnish of choice. Serve with warm pita bread wedges, a thinly sliced crusty baguette, or crackers. Makes about 2 cups.
Butter an 8-inch square baking dish and place it in the oven. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and let dish get hot while mixing batter. Beat eggs with butter until well blended. Add sugar, salt, milk, and vinegar; beat well. Sift together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, and baking soda. Add to egg mixture. Mix just until batter is smooth. Pour into heated dish, then pour cream into center of batter. Do not stir. Place dish in oven and bake 45 to 55 minutes, or until lightly browned. Serve warm. Makes 9 servings.
Intrigued? Order your own copy from Menasha Ridge Press (www.menasharidge.com) for $19.95. Your money will be well spent: Not only will you get a fantastic cookbook and guide to Virginia's best tourist sites, but "A portion of proceeds from book sales is channeled through the Publishing Partners to develop and promote agriculture education, agriculture tourism, and state products." I love a cookbook that's as much fun to read as it is to use. How about you?
Silence Dogood here. Yesterday, our friend Ben and I made the long, the very long, drive back from Greensboro, North Carolina to Hawk's Haven, our cottage home in the precise middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania. On our road trips, OFB is the designated driver and I'm the designated observer, keeping an eye out for anything that might be interesting or entertaining that I can share with Ben to help him stay awake, engaged, and alert during the endless hours of the trip.
Now, there was a classic example of American ingenuity at work! OFB and I didn't think the sign was referring to exotic cars. Instead, here was a place where you could get your car washed and never have to worry about being bored while it was going through the wash, rinse, dry, and polish cycles!
Of course, I couldn't resist thinking about what other businesses could be combined with exotic dancers to the benefit of customers. I quickly decided that a perfect combination would include one of the endless tattoo parlors we passed, since the exotic dancers would hopefully distract the patrons from the pain of the tattooing. Eureka! Another inventive goldmine just waiting to be turned into a money-making reality.
Mercy on us. Here in PA, they tend to go for fireworks instead of strip clubs, I mean, exotic men's clubs. I'm not sure what that says about the Keystone State. But maybe they're missing an opportunity, too: Hot Dogs and Fireworks! Pretzels, Sauerkraut, Firecrackers! Ox Roast and Fireworks!
Oh, well. OFB and I certainly enjoyed the opportunity to think about all the inventive combinations we clever Americans could come up with. It made the homeward trip go much faster. And boy, were we happy to get home!
Well! Our friend Ben and Silence Dogood beg to differ. We love their velvet rosettes of round leaves, and their cheerful flowers that sparkle in a way that reminds us of daylily blooms—the petals of both seem sprinkled with diamond dust. As with all flowers, except for peonies and roses, we only love the single blooms; doubles disgust us, overfat and overstuffed, losing the individuality that separates, say, a tulip from a rose. (Mind you, we love single-flowered roses and peonies, too.) Please keep your double-flowered hollyhocks and clematis and amaryllis and African violets and daylilies and daffodils to yourself, or better still, compost them. Ugh!!!
Anyway, two of our African violets, a pink-flowered and a blue-flowered, had been in bloom for some months. Eventually, African violet blooms turn from crystalline to papery and their stems dry, the signal to pull them off. But as our friend Ben was performing this chore, I saw something I've never encountered before: One flower stem on the pink-flowered African violet had set seed pods! Our friend Ben has encountered seed pods on many of our greenhouse plants: orchids, clivias, aloes, agaves, pelargoniums, amaryllis, the works. And it never fails to thrill me to think that our plants are providing us with the means to make more. (Though there's always the possibility that they've become so desperate from my sporadic watering that they figure it's now or never.) But I have never, ever, seen African violet seedpods before.
Shouting for Silence, I proudly showed off our latest offspring-to-be. And, after a suitable pause for oohing and aahing, we rushed to the computer to find out more about African violet seeds and what you were supposed to do with them.
Urk. Searching on our good friend Google for "African violet seeds," we discovered that you can buy a packet of 50 from Park Seed for $3.50. Oh. Guess this wasn't the earth-shaking phenomenon we thought it was. But hey, these were our African violet seeds. We still wanted to grow them out and see what we ended up with. But how?
Continuing our online search, we were directed to www.grownotes.com, which provided thorough directions. Search "Planting African Violet Seeds" and you'll find their excellent post. To summarize, they emphasize that African violet seeds are minute, and suggest a very fine-milled planting medium to accomodate them. The best container for growing the seedlings is shallow, with a clear cover, like a clamshell takeout container or one of the ones you can get at an olive bar or salad bar in a grocery. (Our friend Ben thinks one of those clear plastic egg cartons might be an even better option.) They suggest punching holes in the bottom for drainage, making sure your container is big enough for the developing plants (10 x 12 inches minimum for 25 seeds), and using a layer of potting medium about 2 inches deep.
All sites our friend Ben and Silence found recommend moistening the seed-starting medium, potting soil, peat, coir, crushed perlite, peat/perlite or whatever medium you plan to plant in and draining it so it's damp but not wet throughout. Just before sowing the seed, spray the top of the medium with a mister, then sow the tiny seeds on top of the medium (which is to say, don't cover them, though I would suggest patting the top of the soil very lightly to ensure good seed/soil contact).
There are some quite elaborate directions to make sure your seeds don't all end up clumped together, though you can always lift and separate them once they've germinated (in as little as 9 or as long as 60 days). This is another reason our friend Ben thinks the egg cartons would be a good idea: You could take a little seed "dust" on your fingertip—moistened, if necessary—and press it into each egg cup, making sure you had good separation for at least some of the plants, and thinning as needed once they came up.
What next? Close the clear top on your seedling "greenhouse," or, if you don't have a clear plastic top, cover your container with plastic wrap and set it 10 inches under fluorescent lights for 12-14 hours a day. Mist the top of the soil as needed when it starts to dry out, but be careful not to overwater, since the container is covered and condensation can quickly overwhelm the tiny seedlings or cause seeds to rot.
Our friend Ben is eager to see what will happen with our first-ever African violet seed pods. But there's one little problem: According to www.grownotes.com, it takes 4 to 6 months for an African violet seed pod to mature, and even then, there's no guarantee that the seeds will be fertile. I guess I'll be checking in with an update sometime in June!
Meanwhile, if you have experience raising African violets from seed, we'd love to hear from you!
One of our Christmas traditions here at Hawk's Haven, the cottage home our friend Ben and Silence Dogood share in the precise middle of nowhere, Pennsylvania, is watching as many versions of Charles Dickens's "A Christmas Carol" as possible.
* Reading "A Christmas Carol" aloud every year with my beloved mama and siblings, and howling with laughter over Stave One, where Scrooge is so horrible.
* Acting out "A Christmas Carol" with my siblings with our troll dolls. Mine was always Scrooge.
* Welcoming my beloved grandparents for the holiday, Grandaddy bearing quail—that most delicious of birds—as a special treat, and super-hot sausage made by a neighbor that was better than any I've ever eaten since.
* Gandaddy ceremoniously mixing up our Simms family eggnog, so thick and creamy you had to eat it with a spoon, so heavy on the bourbon we kids only got as much as would go in our silver baby cups. The eggnog was always carried in procession to our frigid porch to chill overnight, then just as ceremoniously brought back in and stirred just before serving.
* The yummy, many-layered Linzer torte and heavenly chocolate petits fours my father's mother gave us every year. We only got these treats once a year, and never got enough of them. Even now, I long for them at Christmas, and wish someone were still sending them here.
* Mama's delicious Christmas-only treats: homemade fudge, penuche (brown sugar fudge), bourbon balls, rum pie, pecan pie, rahad lakhoum (a special treat for my father, but we loved it, too), chocolate yummy rummies (a rich cross between a mousse and a pudding).
* Fruit from all the relatives: oranges and grapefruit from Aunt Ethel, glaceed apricots from Aunt Bernice, dates and nuts from Uncle Millard, pears and pineapple from Aunt Betty. Yum!!!
* Watching Mama make the iconic fruitcakes, with what seemed to the youthful Ben to be an endless number of steps and an inconceivable number of fantastic ingredients, all for a result I considered inedible. But the process was magic.
* The arrival of the flaming plum pudding and hard sauce at the end of Christmas dinner. Like fruitcake, plum pudding struck our friend Ben as inedible, but the sugary, bourbon-laced hard sauce was quite another matter.
* Decorating the house. We had three trees, each decorated differently: a very formal gold-and-silver tree in the living room, a red-themed tree in the dining room, and a wonderful tree with every kind of ornament, including the many we kids had made, in our keeping room. Decorating the trees, and then sitting around them with fires blazing in each room, was fantastic. And decorating all the mantels and chandeliers was fantastic, too, expecially since we used the magnolia, boxwood, nandina (heavenly bamboo) berry sprays, holly, cones, and pine from our own property.
* Hanging out with Grandma and Grandaddy, my heroes.
* Eating snow cream, a concoction my mother made from fresh snow, milk, sugar, and vanilla.
* All the glorious Christmas dinners with our antique china, crystal, and silver. The food was fantastic, and we only got to use that table setting at Thanksgiving and Christmas, so it was very magical, especially with all the silver and brass candlesticks blazing and a fire beside the Christmas tree.
* Waiting up to watch Midnight Mass broadcast from the Vatican.
* Opening our presents on Christmas morning. They were always amazing!
These seem like more riches than anyone deserves. Scaling back, our friend Ben would ask Santa for a chance to see my mama, my grandparents, and my dog Hapilus celebrating Christmas again. But then, I suppose I see them all, waking and sleeping, every Christmas of my life. It's one reason I love Christmas so.
If you could ask Santa for one gift, what would it be?
Here at Poor Richard's Almanac, our friend Ben, Silence Dogood, and Richard Saunders have decided to make a Christmas tradition of offering the most wonderful Christmas gift we know to our readers, as we did last year, the first year of PRA's existence. This gift is a letter, a wish, a Christmas card, a prayer.
I salute you! There is nothing I can give you which you have not; but there is much that, while I cannot give, you can take.
No peace lies in the future which is not hidden in the present instant. Take peace.
Our hope for each one of you is that, on this glorious Christmas day and every day, "the day breaks and the shadows flee away." Take Joy!
We fear it's probably a little too late for that.
Silence Dogood here. It's Christmas Eve, a time for anticipation and rejoicing, but this will be a bittersweet Christmas for me and our friend Ben. Today, we're leaving to spend Christmas with family in North Carolina, and that's sweet. But to do so, we had to board our Shiloh, and that's bitter.
Many of you will know our beloved black German shepherd puppy, Pioneer Hawk's Haven Shiloh von Shiloh Special, and if you do, you'll know how "special" she is to us. Not yet a year old, this is her first winter, and our big East Coast snowstorm was her first real snow.
How she loved it! "Dashing through the snow" might have been written for her. Every time we took her outside, she'd race around in the widest arc she could, making snow circles everywhere. On the way back indoors, rather than walking or running, with every step she'd bound into the air, then land, compressing the snow beneath her paws as if she couldn't believe what she was experiencing. And once inside, she'd lick the snow off any available object, from her paws to our boots, with delight.
And now, far from celebrating her first Christmas with us, she'll be spending it in a kennel. We're boarding her with our vet, and we know the staff there loves her and will take her out for walks and spoil her. We sent her favorite toys with her, and have plenty of new toys and treats waiting for her on her return, when we'll celebrate our own private Christmas. But still.
But we're staying with the esteemed patriarch of the Hays family, quite robust at 89 but not especially up to a 95-pound bundle of raucous enthusiasm, and then there's his adored little dachshund, Maggie. Shiloh has an unfortunate tendency to bark at a stunningly deafening level in the presence of other dogs, apparently just to let them know that she's there and wants to play. I'm sure neither Maggie nor Mr. Hays—nor anybody else, for that matter, including us—could endure that noise in closed quarters. Ouch!!!
So, for the safety and security (not to mention peace and comfort) of our hosts, Shiloh has been exiled for the holidays. Hopefully, by next Christmas, she'll have settled down enough to come along. (We'll be working on that in the new year, trust us. She's so smart and already knows so many words and commands. She just needs a little time to grow up—our much-loved golden retriever, Molly, was a puppy until she hit 1 1/2, and we expect Shiloh, who'll ultimately be even bigger, to take longer—and consistent training.) Meanwhile, we're sure of one thing: Being reunited with her will be the best Christmas present ever!
Silence Dogood here. When I was a child, my favorite soup was—you guessed it—cream of tomato soup, the kind that came in a can. I still consider cream of tomato soup a favorite cold-weather comfort food, so when I saw some cans of a local PA brand, Hanover's, on sale at the little grocery near us, I was inspired to buy a couple.
Turns out, the Hanover's cream of tomato soup was surprisingly good, rich and smooth with no off-flavors and a simple ingredients list boasting no high-fructose corn syrup or other nasties. And few things are simpler than opening a can of soup, adding milk, butter, and salt, and sitting down with a hot bowl of creamy soup, a hot roll or crusty baguette—or another comfort-food fave, hot popcorn—and a sliced apple. Aaaahhhh!!!
Needless to say, next time I went to the store, I rushed to the soup aisle to stock up. Guess what? No Hanover's soup. I checked every other brand in the store, and they all had high-fructose corn syrup, flour, and other ingredients that would make them taste just like Campbell's, which I find has a tinny off-flavor, the reason I'd never eaten cream of tomato soup as an adult. Oh, no, just when it looked like I'd reclaimed my lost love!
Over the next few weeks, I went to a couple of other groceries in the area, in addition to rechecking the original store. No luck. No Hanover's, and every other brand had the same ingredients as Campbell's.
Give up? No way, with victory within reach. Heading to my good friend Google, I checked out recipes for homemade cream of tomato soup. I found recipes, all right—recipes that used fresh tomatoes, clove-studded onions, and a slew of other ingredients that had never appeared in the cream of tomato soup I knew and loved, the soup I wanted to reproduce. Not that I'm passing judgment on all these recipes, they might be delicious. They simply weren't what I was looking for. (I also found a bunch of recipes for cold cream of tomato soup. Yikes.) I was on my own.
Heat milk and half-and-half until warmed through; do not allow to boil. Add tomato paste, stirring and mashing with a spoon until thoroughly incorporated into the milk base. Keep heat low, never allowing the soup to rise above a simmer. Add salt and Herbamare or Trocomare, stirring gently to blend. (You could substitute white pepper for the Herbamare or Trocamare, if you'd prefer, or add it as well.) Add butter, sliced. When the butter has melted, stir to blend and serve the soup piping hot, never, never allowing it to boil and serving the second it's ready, so it has no chance to cool. Serves two.
Anyway, I was delighted with the flavor and creaminess of my cream of tomato soup. And it was no more trouble to make than canned soup. If you're a cream of tomato soup fan, try it! I think you'll like it.
Silence Dogood here. Now I've really seen it all: the party to end all parties.
I've never gotten the point of those so-called "parties" where people try to sell things, like Tupperware or jewelry, to their "guests." But they must be popular, since so many people host them.
I thought this was the most bizarre party idea on earth until I read about Botox parties a few years back. I have to assume that people still use Botox, but that it's now more in the category of getting your teeth cleaned or something. But back in the day, when Botox was shiny and new, there was apparently a craze for throwing "Botox parties" with a doctor in attendance, who'd oblige the guests with injections of botulism toxin to remove their wrinkles. Being needle-averse, extremely averse to being injected with a potentially paralyzing toxin, and by God's grace, unwrinkled, this concept struck me as the weirdest idea for a party I'd ever heard of. Ouch. Some party!
But this morning, an article in our local paper, the Allentown, PA Morning Call, made me change my mind. It was about a new trend in party-giving brought on by our recessionary times.
Potlucks, you're thinking? Low-key get-togethers involving cards, knitting, watching DVDs, birdwatching, maybe a walk in the park or attending a free concert? Hardly. "Guests get paid at these parties," the headline proclaimed. Uh-oh. Exactly what kind of party are we talking about here?!! And if something untoward's going on, why is the article about it in the finance section of the paper?
We've written here before about one sign of economic hard times being the endless full-page ads in our paper for jewelry stores and travelling appraisers, who often set up in hotels, advertising their services: "Bring in your old jewelry! Highest prices paid!" But the concept of a "party" takes the sad and permanent pawning of family treasures and sentimental keepsakes to a whole new level.
What's fueling the hysteria is a truism of hard times: When the economy takes a downturn and people lose faith in paper money and scrap-metal coinage, real assets like precious metals rise in value. Gold has hit an all-time high at $1,100 an ounce (that's for pure, 24-carat gold), and silver has reached a 10-year high at $18 an ounce (for sterling), according to the article. People are rushing to unload their valuables so they can pay off their mortgages and credit cards.
Returning to the gold party, and to these "give us your gold" buyers in general, there's something anyone considering parting with antiques and coins should consider: The appraisers are buying for melt, and are paying accordingly. You'll get better prices going to specialists who will value your antique jewelry or gold and silver coins for their collector value. And you'll have the satisfaction of knowing that at least your family heirlooms will be sold to other people who can appreciate them, not melted down like scrap for their metal value.
Unfortunately, hard times do often call for hard measures. But it seems that there's always someone prepared to profit from the silver (or, in this case, gold) lining to those proverbial clouds. Just don't invite me to the party, please. And keep your Botox to yourself.

KCL Big Question
How the lights have gone out across Syria since 2011
Scale of damage caused by fighting and aerial barrel-bombing in Syria vividly shown by amount of light released over the country, which has shrunk by 83 per cent in four years
A satellite image shows the lack of lights in Aleppo and Homs in February 2015
By Richard Spencer, Middle East Editor
7:30AM GMT 12 Mar 2015
The lights are going out all over Syria. Research published to mark the fourth anniversary of the Syrian uprising has shown the amount of light being released over the country has shrunk by 83 per cent.
Satellite imagery taken at night was used to chart the progress of the war by researchers at Wuhan University in China.
They show the glow from major population centres like Aleppo and Homs gradually dim. Aleppo, which has been divided between pro- and anti-regime halves since July 2012, has lost 97 per cent of all its light.
As well as the fighting on the ground, rebel-held parts of Aleppo have been devastated by a major aerial barrel-bombing campaign which has devastated whole suburbs.
Its biggest industrial zone has also been a battle-zone, with mainstream rebels, jihadists from Al-Qaeda and Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, and regime forces controlling it by turns.
Damascus by contrast has suffered less, losing just 35 per cent of its light - a sign of the firm grip on the city centre still held by the regime of President Bashar al-Assad.
The researchers have also found that there is a direct correlation with the number of refugees from an area and the loss of light.
"Satellite imagery is the most objective source of data showing the devastation of Syria on a national scale," the lead researcher, Xi Li, said. "Taken from 500 miles above the earth, these images help us understand the suffering and fear experienced by ordinary Syrians every day, as their country is destroyed around them."
The research was commissioned by an alliance of non-governmental organisations to highlight the plight of civilians as the war rages around them.
More than 200,000 people have been killed during the war, and more than 3.5 million people have fled the country. Including those displaced internally, half the pre-war population of 22 million are refugees.
"Syria's people have been plunged into the dark: destitute, fearful, and grieving for the friends they have lost and the country they once knew," said David Miliband, the former Foreign Secretary who is now president of the International Rescue Committee.
"Four years since the crisis began, there is at present very little light in this tunnel."

Six months and here we are again, eWorld September 2017. I am sure that for the rest of the team at Market Dojo it felt like a bout of Deja Vu having gone for the past 6 years but for myself, this happened to be my first trade show since starting here earlier this month.
Luckily, this time around we stayed in a hotel the evening before so missed the 4am start which I believe is the traditional Market Dojo eWorld routine.
So starting the day feeling fresh at sunrise, we headed down to the QEII Centre in Westminster to set up for the day. I worked my marketing magic to make the stand look pretty great (if I do say so myself) on time for delegates arrival at 8am.
We had the privilege of being situated next to two of our close partners stands Provalido and Per Angusta.
The brilliant Claire Boffey who organises the popular event biannually, ensured all the sponsors had free bacon rolls to prepare us for the big day ahead. Unfortunately, for vegetarians like me, this meant sampling lots of chocolates from various stands which gave me the perfect opportunity to gain an insight into other competitors and procurement solutions on the market.
I think for 'newbies' like myself, it was interesting to see the range of people which attend the event. Not everyone is there for new opportunity it seemed, which surprised me (just there for CIPS points!) however the ones which were, showed just how applicable Market Dojo is to the market, as many procurement teams are so stuck in old ways and could benefit massively from using a tool to eSource.
Interserve gave an honest talk about their experience of implementing an eProcurement solution, explaining their hardships along the way with software, communication and processes. However choosing the right supplier was fundamental to their success, yep that's right… us (MARKET DOJO) and Per Angusta.
Our prize draw for a free month licence for Market Dojo was drawn from a hat by Pierre from Per Angusta and Pete from our sales team. Our lucky winner this time, was Kunal Khanderia from Hilton Hotels.
As the day appeared to come to a close, we had some of our best conversations with people who were really keen to learn more about the world of eSourcing and also some of our other products such as category analysis. This went down very well with a glass of white wine to finish a fun first day at eWorld.
Finally! (nearly finished I promise) before heading off back to Gloucestershire, we went for my cuisine of choice, Italian at Colosseo just a 5 minute walk from the QEII centre for some real food (by that, I obviously mean pasta) before another day back at the office!
If you didn't get the chance to come to the event or missed us for any reason and think Market Dojo could have been of interest to you, don't hesitate to get in touch for more information or try out our free sandpit tool here!


I'm currently reading this series with one of my Goodreads groups, one book a month. So, I thought I'd share my reviews here as we complete them.
Claire Tierney is an NSA analyst who found herself in a security intelligence situation after she agreed to get some information for her ex-boyfriend, Gage Wallace, an operative for Titanium Security. Her discovery triggered the need for a joint task force to investigate their findings and now they're both assigned to the project. And because she's potentially a target, Gage is also tasked with protecting her until the threat is neutralized. He's still wanting a relationship. Claire…not so much.
I really liked Gage and respected Claire. Her angst, however, was terribly annoying. While I understood her reasons for walking away from the relationship six months ago, it's how she did it that was perplexing. Her reactions to them being thrust together again professionally felt immature and their differences seemed like they could have been resolved with one conversation. That being said, I did like their chemistry. I also enjoyed the continuing story arc from the first book. Including the terrorist's point of view made the story more sinister and amped up the suspense.
While the identity of the orchestrator of the threat is still unresolved, the immediate danger was satisfactorily concluded. I enjoyed the story overall, liked the romance but didn't love it. The first book was non-stop action but this one had much less focus on suspense, which was a disappointment.
What a great idea to read a series with a group! Sorry this one was not fulfilling all that you wanted in this book. Hopefully, the rest will do just that. Terrific review, Jonetta!
Thank you, Marialyce! I love doing these series group reads as it helps me finish them while having great discussions. This one wasn't bad, just "less than" the first book.
As always, you write a thoughtful and well-balanced review, Jonetta. I hope you love the next one!
Thanks, Anne! We plan to continue right into the spinoff of this one.
It's a shame the story was lacking in the suspense department. It still sounds pretty good though and I like the idea of doing it as a group read.

Lost Bosnian rescue dog has evaded capture for 7 months
Mary Jo DiLonardo
Drogo is about a year old and comes from the streets of Sarajevo. (Photo: Finding Drogo)
Drogo had it made. The German shepherd mix was rescued from Sarajevo and whisked 1,700 miles away to a new home in Scotland after Emma Campbell saw a friend's distressing social media post about the plight of street dogs in Bosnia.
His new family was ready to give the timid dog an amazing life. Campbell was slowly taking him for walks around the island of Arran so he could get familiar with his new home.
One day, about four weeks after Drogo had arrived, Campbell drove him a short distance from her home. The plan was to walk back with the dog so he could learn the area. She opened the car door to get ready for the walk and scared Drogo bolted.
That was last October. The elusive pup has evaded capture ever since.
"I honestly didn't think it would go on this long, but I always felt that he had the potential to survive out there," Campbell tells MNN.
She and her family have taken extreme measures to bring Drogo home. They tried luring him into traps with tempting barbecued sausages and sirloin steak. They put out items scented with a female dog in heat. They asked a shelter worker Drogo knew in Bosnia to send a T-shirt with her smell. They enlisted the help of a volunteer team of expert dog finders.
The family even adopted Drogo's sister Goldie in hopes that would somehow inspire the dog to return.
"I've learned a lot about these dogs in the last eight or nine months — since before we got him too, as I was in touch with the shelter for approximately three months before he arrived," Campbell says.
"They are very resilient dogs, not like your usual domesticated dogs."
Captured ... on camera

Drogo has become a local celebrity as followers track his progress on the Finding Drogo Facebook page and watch as his image is captured on wildlife cameras around the island.
He's been spotted on camera just steps away from entering a trap and even came within about 65 feet of Campbell in a field before taking off again, according to the BBC.
Experts believe Drogo is likely in survival mode, where he's regressed to his primal instincts.
"A dog that has entered Survival Mode prioritizes things in the following order: Survival, Food, Water, Shelter. When a dog has entered survival mode, very often EVERY human is viewed as a predator — even the one that has fed, loved, walked, bathed and pampered them for the last 2-4-12 years," Finding Drogo posted on Facebook, quoting information from Petsearchers Canada.
When a dog is in survival mode, he feels like utterly he's on his own.
"All humans are predators who want to capture and harm them. People yelling (calling a pet's name), shaking a food container (loud noises), cars, other dogs barking and pursuing, squeaking toys, a door slamming — these will all invite a fight or flight response. In most (95%+) this will result in a flight response rather than fight."
The good news is it's almost always temporary. Once a dog is caught, he'll usually return to his earlier personality with little change, the experts say.
Campbell adopted Drogo after seeing a story on a friend's Facebook page about street dogs in Sarajevo. (Photo: Finding Drogo)
As for Campbell, although she admits she has been discouraged a few times, she says she's not giving up.
"At least two times when there was about six weeks between sightings we had feared the worst and spoken to the kids about him going over the rainbow bridge, then he pops up somewhere," she says. "Me, I am pretty stubborn, and I owe it to this dog to get him to safety. I brought him here, so I feel 100 percent responsible for him."
Mary Jo DiLonardo writes about everything from health to parenting — and anything that helps explain why her dog does what he does.

Firstborn and I went on a pilgrimage of sorts today. It was a mother-son trip to San Marino Toy and Book Shoppe, which is closing its doors this month after a 43-year run.
I discovered the toy and book shop more than 20 years ago, when I had two nieces to spoil. By the time I married and had Firstborn in 2001, this store had become a regular stop for gifts. I knew I could find good books there, along with recommendations from the knowledgeable staff. They also wrapped gifts for free. And their "Christmas in August" sales and author book signings regularly made it to my calendar.
From the first time I rolled our stroller into the store, Firstborn and I knew the shop would always be a happy stop. First came the baby books and toys, old-school noisemakers and wooden toys from Europe.
One of the best memories we have made at San Marino Toy and Book is the time author Eric Carle came to visit in the summer of 2003. The line stretched outside the door, but everyone was excited and cheerful. By the time we got our copy of "Panda Bear, Panda Bear, What Do You See?" signed, little Firstborn was asleep in our arms.
Undeterred, we took photos with Eric Carle anyway. Our library of his books still has a pride of place in our bookshelf.
By the time his little brother came along in 2005, San Marino Toy and Book was one of our regular haunts, along with Mrs. Nelson's Toy and Book Shop in La Verne and Borders at the Santa Anita Mall. Aside from supplying us with whatever book series the kids were engrossed in, the shop also offered a nicely-curated selection of educational toys. Ravensburger puzzles are still a favorite with Cheeky Baby, who has inherited many of her brothers' past purchases.
We still popped in to the store after they moved a couple of doors down on Huntington Drive, but not as often as before. When the yellow postcard came in the mail announcing that owner Betty Takeuchi had decided to retire and close up shop, I felt the same sad twinge at having to say goodbye. Mrs. Nelson's closed in 2013 and Borders is long gone, too. Vroman's in Pasadena remains.
As we walked past almost-empty shelves, Firstborn and I pointed out toys he remembered from his childhood: There was the tin top that played music and the same ferocious rubber T-rex. He picked up an autographed copy of a book by Marie Lu, one of his favorites. Yes, he still loves to read.
"Thank you for being part of our 44 years," the lady behind the counter said, smiling up at my son after I introduced him as someone who'd grown up with this neighborhood store. Forty years' worth of children and parents, trooping in and out in time.
I bought a rainbow-bright caterpillar baby toy for a cousin expecting her first child and a paint-your-own-racecar kit. For old time's sake, I added a tiny plastic case containing dino poop. My son approved.
San Marino Toy and Book Shoppe is at 2476 Huntington Drive in San Marino. The closing sale ends when stock is gone. For more information, call 626-309-0222.


The tablet market is characterised by intense interest from a multiplicity of players on one hand, and a virtually untested market place on the other. From the handful of tablet launches to date- Apple, with its iPad, Dell with the Android device Streak, and Samsung with the Galaxy Tab- it is becoming increasingly clear that the tablet device is already exerting itself as a device category with the potential to reach significant sales volumes in coming years.The emergence of the tablet device allows for developments in the smartphone market, such as the creation of the App ecosystem and advances in User Interface design to be spread to a wider circle of devices. The iPad of course needs no introduction, and has been welcomed by the consumer, selling over 1 million devices per month since launch. And although numerous players are set to enter the tablet space, the strong hardware/ content ecosystem that Apple has created, coupled with its head-start in the market, suggest that it will have a healthy lead for the foreseeable future.

A DNAinfo.com article features Pace University and the school's plan to apply for funding to transform the plaza in front of its lower Manhattan campus.
Tobias Bisharat, Pace's director of facilities, explains that Pace's plaza doesn't "invite the community into the area" and they would like for it to do that.
If the idea is approved by the Department of Transportation, then the plaza could open in a 2-3 years.

A Study done by a Pace PhD candidate Arthur O'Connor which showed a correlation between stocks and social-media was mentioned in the NewsFactor article "Wall Street Traders Mine Tweets for Investing Clues".
Interest in the marriage of social media and finance remains high. In March, a study done by a Ph.D. candidate at Pace University showed a positive correlation between stock price performance and the social-media "popularity" of well-known brands Starbucks, Coca-Cola and Nike. The Pace author, Arthur O'Connor, also found that brand popularity online may be a "lead indicator" of stock performance. And a team of economists at TUM School of Management, or Technical University of Munich, has created a Web site, TweetTrader.net, that attempts to profit from similar Twitter research.

The Left Forum, an annual conference held at Pace University which covers local and international political issues, was covered by DNAinfo, The Guardian, and The Nation.
This is the third year the Left Forum has been held at Pace University, but it has its roots back in the Socialist Scholars Conference in the 1960s. Every year, the Left Forum brings activists together to take a step back from their day-to-day work and see what others are doing in different fields all over the world.
It is expected to be the largest Left Forum yet.

Govt confused over foreign investment - Labour
6:07 am on 28 July 2010
Labour says the Government is confused over foreign investment rules and is softening the public up for another policy U-turn.
Prime Minister John Key has signalled the Government is unlikely to change overseas investment rules to make it easier for land to be sold to foreigners.
But Labour's associate finance spokesperson David Parker says a Government review, which is due to be reported to Cabinet soon, was set up to ensure applications to the Overseas Investment Office could be approved more easily.
He says the Government can't decide whether it wants to encourage or discourage foreign investment.
Mr Parker says the Government's approach is not driven by principle, but by the opinion polls.

When an STF is approved and the availability of funding is confirmed, the ETSI Secretariat will circulate a Collective Letter ("Call for Expertise") requesting proposals from ETSI Members (Full/Associate/Observers) or from external Companies/Organizations, with the support of an ETSI Member (get the ETSI Member support letter here).
Applications must be submitted from the page "Call for Expertise" of the ETSI Portal (open WEB access). This page provides the list of the currently open Calls for Expertise and allows downloading the Collective Letters, which include the detailed STF Terms of Reference and a form with guidelines to submit the proposal.
An user guide for the Call for Expertise is available here.
The ETSI Director-General, in consultation with the Reference Body Chairman, is responsible for the selection of the Companies/Organizations that will be contracted to perform the STF work.
A Selection Panel including representatives of the ETSI Secretariat and the Reference Body Chairman (and/or his representatives) is normally delegated to make a recommendation to the ETSI Director-General for the final decision.
The Selection Panel will make a preliminary selection of the proposals that can fulfill the STF requirements from the point of view of technical competence and budget constraints.
The ETSI Secretariat will invite the representatives of the short-listed Companies/Organizations to the Preparatory Meeting, to discuss their proposal with the Selection Panel.
The objective of the Preparatory Meeting is to finalize the proposals, agree on the share of tasks, working methods, deliverables and time scale and to make the final recommendation to the ETSI Director-General for the establishment of Service Contracts within the limits of the maximum budget allocated to the STF.
The technical aspects will be openly discussed between the representatives of the Companies/Organizations and the Selection Panel.
If necessary, after the technical framework has been agreed, the financial conditions proposed by each Company/Organization may be discussed individually with the Selection Panel, with the objective to ensure that the total amount to be contracted fits within the limits of the maximum budget available. Note: since this negotiation may require iterations and in order to prevent the risk that the start of the STF is delayed, the ETSI Secretariat may take preliminary action to identify possible margin of negotiation with the short-listed Companies/Organizations, before the Preparatory Meeting.

Q: Merge separate flow files with separate JSON together in Nifi I am attempting to merge two flowfiles together using MergeContent. The content of both files are JSON objects which I would like to append to each other and wrap both with a JSON key.
File 1:
"Create":[
 {
   "Action": "Create",
   "Book": {
       "Id": "1234"
    }
 },
 {
   "Action": "Create",
   "Video": {
       "Id": 3245
   }
 }
]

File 2:
"Update":[
 {
   "Action": "Update",
   "Book": {
       "Id": "5376"
    }
 },
 {
   "Action": "Update",
   "Video": {
       "Id": "8267"
   }
 }
]

I need the final output to look like so:
{
  "Transaction": {
    "Action": "Transaction",
    "Type": {
      "Create": [
        {fill in stuff}
      ],
      "Update": [
        {fill in stuff}
      ]
    }
  }
}

What is happening is that my MergeContent processor is picking up more than one flow file out of the Update or Create input and it is merging 'like' flow files together, instead of merging the separate content together.
Screenshot of my MergeContent :

A: You can add a MergeContent processor with

*

*Delimiter Strategy = Text

*Header = {

*Footer = }

*Demarcator = ,
in order to generate the core part
      "Create": [
        {fill in stuff}
      ],
      "Update": [

then apply a JSONJoltTransform with specification

  {
    "operation": "shift",
    "spec": {
      "#Transaction": "&.Action",
      "@": "Transaction.Type"
    }

Meander Meander (2020)
Meander through the lovely Meander Valley and surrounding area in Northern Tasmania -- a 400 km ride with a 27-hour time limit, including all breaks.
The ride takes cyclists to scenic Deloraine, and then explores the hills to the west of Deloraine in the Mole Creek area. From there, cyclists meander south to Campbell Town, and then north on quiet country roads to Launceston. Grab a bite to eat before continuing further north up the Tamar Valley to the former gold mining town of Beaconsfield. The ride returns to Launceston and presents riders with one final challenge before the finish - one last climb.
We will start this ride at 6 am to take full advantage of the 14.5 hours of daylight.
