var johnCarter = new Movie() { Title = "John Carter" };
johnCarter.Director = new Director { Id = andrewStantonId };
context.Movies.Add(johnCarter);
context.SaveChanges();
SaveChanges() will save the new Movie- but it also saves a new Director record (which gets a new Id, even though you set it manually). When you add an entity to a DbSet, the entire object graph is marked as “Added”.
You could do a Find to load the Director record from the database, but it is a pointless database access that you don’t need. It just needs to save the Movie record with a known directorId.
In NHibernate you can use session.Load<Director>(andrewStantonId) which will create an empty proxy object without hitting the database. Only if you use one of the proxy properties (like director.Name) will it hit the database to load the record. EF Code First doesn’t have this feature.
One way round it to add a foreign key Id property to the Movie record:
public virtual Director Director { get; set; }
public int? DirectorId { get; set; }
You can then set the DirectorId directly. The two properties are not kept in step automatically, so setting the DirectorId doesn’t cause Director to load from the database. Foreign key Id properties are convenient, but your object model is “denormalized”.
The alternative is to mark the dummy record as unchanged. There are two ways.
One is to set the context.Entry state for the dummy reference AFTER the new record has been added.
var johnCarter = new Movie() { Title = "John Carter" };
johnCarter.DirectorId = andrewStantonId;
context.Movies.Add(johnCarter);
//after it's added, change the status of the reference
context.Entry(johnCarter.Director).State = EntityState.Unchanged;
context.SaveChanges();
The second way is to create the dummy reference by Attaching it.
//attach the dummy director record
var andrewStanton = new Director { Id = andrewStantonId};
context.Directors.Attach(andrewStanton);
//now we have an "unchanged" director record to attach
var johnCarter = new Movie() { Title = "John Carter" };
johnCarter.Director = andrewStanton;
context.Movies.Add(johnCarter);
context.SaveChanges();

Step four: encode an extended sequence of chords.
Perfect, you have just encoded a simple chord sequence in MEI. Now let's continue and add some rhythmical variance for a more extended sequence of chords. In fact, we will arrive at an harmonisation of the "Mary had a little lamb" example from the Quickstart tutorial:
In the editor below, please try to reproduce the chord sequence above with MEI. Notes are enclosed by chord
elements. Each chord needs a @dur
attribute, and each note needs @pname
and
@oct
attributes.
Keep in mind that the @dur
attribute can have values like "1"
, "2"
, "4"
,
"8"
or "16"
to indicate different rhythmical values.
For the first chord, you need an additional @dots
attribute, where you need to specify
the number of dots as an integer – in this case, it's simply a dots="1"
.
Tip: Once you have laid out the chordal structure, you should be able to copy & paste the block with the three <note>
elements.

Developer Guidelines
Code Style
The Akka code style follows this document .
Here is a code style settings file for IntelliJ IDEA: Download
Please follow the code style. Look at the code around you and mimic.
Testing
All code that is checked in should have tests. All testing is done with ScalaTest and ScalaCheck.
- Name tests as Test.scala if they do not depend on any external stuff. That keeps surefire happy.
- Name tests as Spec.scala if they have external dependencies.
There is a testing standard that should be followed: Ticket001Spec
Actor TestKit
There is a useful test kit for testing actors: akka.util.TestKit. It enables assertions concerning replies received and their timing, there is more documentation in the Testing Actor Systems module.
NetworkFailureTest
You can use the ‘NetworkFailureTest’ trait to test network failure. See the ‘RemoteErrorHandlingNetworkTest’ test. Your tests needs to end with ‘NetworkTest’. They are disabled by default. To run them you need to enable a flag.
Example:
project akka-remote
set akka.test.network true
test-only akka.actor.remote.RemoteErrorHandlingNetworkTest
It uses ‘ipfw’ for network management. Mac OSX comes with it installed but if you are on another platform you might need to install it yourself. Here is a port:

REVEAL SPOILERS
I suspected Janina of being the murderer by the way she spoke of Big Foot's death. But it wasn't clear at all if she had killed him (which she actually didn't). It turned out that it was merely the trigger that pushed her over the edge to commit the murders of the Commandant, Boros, and Father Rustle (all of whom were in the photo with her dead "girls").
Her narration, then, is one of an unreliable narrator. Towards the end, it's clear she wants to present the reader with a story of what happened to convince us that it was a form of retribution – that she is not evil but was merely acting on behalf of justice.
I think that Tokarczuk is trying to posit a real moral dilemma here. Obviously, she depicts Janina as somewhat loopy – she helplessly believes in horoscopes and how they define all interaction – but her escape and acceptance by her friends at the end of the novel indicates that maybe Tokarczuk believes some sort of justice was found here.
In today's society, the killing of a dog is nowhere even remotely seen as equal to the murder of a person. But Tokarzcuk wants us to contemplate that. Our entire society, from the food we eat to how we treat animals, is based upon how we believe ourselves superior to them. If we didn't – if we were somebody like Janina – how would we approach these sorts of problems of morality?
Some readers may find these questions foolish and idealistic. But I'd say to cast aside your preconceived notions of morality briefly and just think about it. All of society was against Janina and on the side of these morally repugnant hunters. Was some sort of justice served?

Google+ URL posting : 4 Facts to optimize SEO and Social Trust
10/Sep 2014
Writing an appealing and interesting** Google+ post** is not the only thing one might know when posting an URL on the social network. In this post I detail several technical facts that you should keep in mind when posting to** increase your SEO and enforce social trust**. You will learn which URL can be indexed from a Google+ post and the impact on your social metrics.
Increase social trust
Google+ has become an obvious place to share/post links to increase your online visibility. Many articles are describing how to write a good G+ post and it often boils down to writing a valuable piece of content in your post, with a title, inserting bold text and adding some media together with optional hashtags. Here is a summary from Dustin Stout :
However, a post on Google+ has external consequences, especially on the number of views, +1, comments and shares your URL will receive. Depending on your inclination, you might believe that these metrics are important or not. I will not argue on that point, and will just give you few takeaways about how to share an URL in different contexts.
Sharing an URL and receive a share
First things first, I call a (public or private) share an URL that is mentioned on Google Ripples : see our previous articles “What are Google+ Shares and how to retrieve them ?” . Google makes the distinction between private and public shares : in the former case, the URL is shared among a restricted number of people while in the latter, the URL is shared publicly (pretty obvious, isn’t it?).
To count as a share, you URL needs to appear in the preview snippet bellow your post. If you share several URLs, only the one appearing in the preview area will receive a share count. If you share your URL together with a media (image/video) your post will not count as a share for this URL. See the picture below for a summary :
Depending on your strategy you might use one of the previous three cases. If your goal is too** share and collect reshares** for a URL you might use the first and second example. Be aware that if you share several links in the same post (example 2), only the one appearing in the preview snippet will receive shares ans reshares.
If you aim at** ‘hiding’ a share, then you should use the third example. However, you should realize that you are loosing the potential of virality. In this example, Cyrus Shepard lost 23 shares** by posting his link like he did.
Don’t look too spammy
You might wonder why people would like to “hide” shares. Well, the answer is pretty obvious :** sharing too much is a bit spammy**. I have a concrete example to give you.
When I post an article on G+, I usually post it on my own stream and then on 2 or 3 targeted communities. To avoid being flagged as a spammer, I usually decide beforehand which location will be more subject to reshares (my own stream or a community). I then post my link only in this place, paying attention that the preview summary got activated. Finally, I post my article to other locations with a picture instead of the URL preview. By doing this I am ‘hiding’ the share and I don’t look like a bad spammer.
When ‘hiding’ the link in the content of your post, your readers still have the possibility to click it and read your post.
Another good reason to hide shares is when you are using the** Google+ comment box** on your own site. Of course it is not an official widget, but many webmasters are using it in order to increase visibility : whenever someone comments using this box, the comment can be shared directly on the user G+ stream. I am often using it on my blogs to increase the amount of reshares.
Though this comment box is one of the best techniques to increase sharing of your articles on Google+, it is really a nightmare for cross posters. Look at what it looks like when the owner is posting on several communities while sharing its link in the preview snippet (click to see the full picture) :
Therefore, if you want to** use this comment box, please, **pay attention to the way you are sharing your links on Google+.
If you optimize your posts, you might be able to receive more shares while preventing spammy behavior.
Increase the SEO effect
Alright, so we covered the social aspects of URL sharing on Google+. Let’s now look at the SEO side. This section is based on experiments I ran in April 2014, thus results might have changed.
Link indexation
As we just have seen, you can share an URL in a G+ post with a preview or without the preview. Before running my tests I thought that the URLs shared without a preview would not be indexed by Google and that URLs shared with a preview would get indexed.
I decided to run a test to verify these assumptions. I also wanted to see what was the difference between a private and a public share for the indexation. Four pages were created with random unique content , a valid layout (title, headings) and an image. Each page was containing a unique word like “apolintruc”.
I submitted two of these pages in public posts and two pages in private posts. In each case, I posted one URL with the preview box, and the other URL with an image box and the link in the text of my post. Here are the two public posts I created :
<!– Place this tag where you want the widget to render. –>
The final outcome is really not what I expected. Eventually,** the two public posts had their URLs indexed**, while the private ones were not indexed at all, not even the post with the link preview.
<!– Place this tag in your head or just before your close body tag. –>Therefore, if you want to
** gain some SEO juice, always post links in a public way** ! That might have seemed obvious for some of you, but I have not read it elsewhere before.
Some facts about posting a link on G+
When posting a link that will appear in the preview box, Google is sending its “snippetbot” to retrieve a picture and a summary for your link. So, the first spider you will receive has no real name and looks like this :
<IP_ADDRESS> - - [08/Apr/2014:12:11:06 +0200] "GET /test/atraminouita.html HTTP/1.1" 200 1615 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; rv:6.0) Gecko/20110814 Firefox/6.0 Google (+https://developers.google.com/+/web/snippet/)"
The documention sends you to the Snippet documentation and there not much to say about that except that (of course) you won’t receive it if your link was not pre loaded in the preview snippet.
Then , whenever one link is shared in the content of a post, you will receive the visit of an old friend, Google Feedfetcher :
<IP_ADDRESS> - - [08/Apr/2014:12:13:22 +0200] "GET /test/atraminouita.html HTTP/1.1" 200 1615 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible) Feedfetcher-Google;(+http://www.google.com/feedfetcher.html)"
This is the real guy who will ignite the indexation of your page. I don’t really know what triggers the indexation since the documentation is rather vague about it, but, the fact is that at some point, GoogleBot came on my pages to index them (it took actually so long, that I could not find it in my logs).
It’s interesting to note that Feedfetcher did not disappear with Google Reader !
A very last note (since this article already passed the 1K words) about G+ Urls. You probably know that Google records the number of views on your profile. Guess what, it also records the number of clicks on the URLs you are posting. Look at this apache log for instance :
<IP_ADDRESS> - - [08/Apr/2014:22:45:23 +0200] "GET /test/razominawo.html HTTP/1.1" 200 1799 "http://plus.url.google.com/url?sa=z&n=1396989924414&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.graphemeride.com%2Ftest%2Frazominawo.html&usg=DymRAVdehswUyvEh0bzZypqGlOI." "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/34.0.1847.116 Safari/537.36"
Here you see the IP of my visitor <IP_ADDRESS> and the referrer http://plus.url.google.com/url?sa=z&n=1396989924414&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.graphemeride.com%2Ftest%2Frazominawo.html&usg=DymRAVdehswUyvEh0bzZypqGlOI.
Interesting parameters :
- n=1396989924414 : the timestamp of the click (in millisecond)
- url : the url clicked
- usg : I could not reverse engineer this one, but I would love to see it being the user who clicked.
Posting wisely
Starting from today you can now post in wiser way on Google+ :
- If you want to get more shares, pay attention to the preview snippet and have your link description loaded there.
- If you want to hide your sharing activities (duplicate posts in time, cross posting) : use a media with your post to prevent the preview snippet to show your URL
- If you want your Backlinks to count for Google index, post publicly on Google+
- Finally, since every click counts (and Google records that), post an appealing content together with your link. Your followers will anyway prefer that.

The blood smear slide can be prepared by cleaning finger with 70% ethyl alcohol, then allow it to dry and then the side of the fingertip is picked and a drop of blood is placed on a glass slide.
A thin blood film is prepared by placing the smooth edge of a spreader slide at 45° and then smearing the blood with a swift and steady sweep along the surface. The slide is then allowed to air dry and is fixed with absolute methanol.
After drying, the sample is stained with diluted Giemsa (1:20, vol/vol) for 20 min and washed by briefly dipping the slide in and out of a jar of buffered water.
The slide is then allowed to air-dry in a vertical position and examined by the system with the help of a microscope.

Next: Rank methods, Previous: Rule methods, Up: Grammar methods [Contents][Index]
When successful, returns
Does not distinguish sequence rules without proper
separation from non-sequence rules.
That is,
does not distinguish an unset proper separation flag
from a
proper separation flag whose value is unspecified
because rule_id is the ID of a BNF rule.
Applications that want to determine whether
or not a rule is a sequence rule
can use
marpa_g_sequence_min()
to do this.
See marpa_g_sequence_min().
Soft fails iff rule_id is well-formed (a non-negative integer), but a rule with that ID does not exist.
Return value: On success, 1 or 0. On soft failure, -1. On hard failure, -2.
On success, returns the mininum length of a sequence rule. Soft fails iff a rule with ID rule_id exists, but is not a sequence rule. This soft failure can used to test whether or not a rule is a sequence rule.
Hard fails irrecoverably if rule_id is not well-formed (a non-negative integer). Also, hard fails irrecoverably if no rule with ID rule_id exists, even when rule_id is well formed. Note that, in its handling of the non-existence of a rule for its rule argument, this method differs from many of the other grammar methods. Grammar methods that take a rule ID argument more often treat the non-existence of rule for a well-formed rule ID as a soft, recoverable, failure.
Return value: On success, the minimum length of the sequence rule with ID rule_id, which is always non-negative. On soft failure, -1. On hard failure, -2.
marpa_g_sequence_new()
is one of the
rule creation methods.
On success, the following are true:
n
be the maximum rule ID
in grammar g when this method was called.
Then the new rule will have
rule ID n+1
.
MARPA_PROPER_SEPARATION
is set is undefined.
flags & MARPA_PROPER_SEPARATION
is non-zero,
separation is “proper”.
Proper separation means the the rule does
not recognize a trailing separator.
Specifying proper separation has no effect if
a separator symbol has not been specified.
In addition to sequence rules, Marpa also allows BNF rules,
which are created by
the
marpa_g_rule_new()
method.
See marpa_g_rule_new().
We call
marpa_g_rule_new()
and
marpa_g_sequence_new()
rule creation methods.
For details on the use of sequence rules,
see Sequence rules.
Sequence rules and BNF rules are both rules: They share the same series of rule IDs, and are accessed and manipulated by the same methods, with the only differences being as noted in the descriptions of those methods.
Each grammar’s rule ID’s are a consecutive sequence of non-negative integers, starting at 0. The consecutive numbering of rule ID’s is intended to make it convenient for applications to store additional information about a grammar’s rules in an array.
The LHS symbol cannot be the LHS of any other rule,
whether a BNF rule or a sequence rule.
On an attempt to create an sequence rule with a duplicate
LHS,
this method hard fails,
with an error code of
MARPA_ERR_SEQUENCE_LHS_NOT_UNIQUE
.
Return value: On success, the ID of the newly added sequence rule, which is always non-negative. On hard failure, -2.
On success, returns the symbol ID of the separator of the sequence rule with ID rule_id. Soft fails iff there is no separator. Hard fails if rule_id is a negative integer; if rule_id is not the ID of a rule that exists; or if rule_id is not the ID a sequence rule.
Return value: On success, a symbol ID, which is always non-negative. On soft failure, -1. On hard failure, -2.
On success, returns a boolean whose value is 1 iff the symbol with ID sym_id is counted. A symbol is counted iff
Soft fails iff sym_id is well-formed (a non-negative integer), but a symbol with that ID does not exist.
Return value: On success, a boolean. On soft failure, -1. On hard failure, -2.

A lot of people (>3) asked me in the last month or so about how to land a first job after leaving the army / graduating from university, so I thought I'd write a post about it.
I think this post will mainly be helpful for those who look for their 1st job, because after that you get the feel for it.
This is a work in progress - I'll update this every now and then.
Reservations and conditions
I'm assuming that:
- You're going into computer-science-ish fields
- You're above average, so your best strategy is not to do shady things like putting stuff you didn't really do / don't really know in your CV
Why my experience might not be applicable to you:
- I'm favoring startup mentality over big companies. This is because I can tolerate relative job insecurity (startups are more likely to die) and hate bureaucracy.
Your preferences may differ - I went for DevOps / Production / Operations / SysAdmin positions (the definition is very loose), where positions are filled slowly and the advantage is on the employee's side.
A job-finding experience of a Software Engineer / Software Developer may be different - I looked for work in Israel - some other country might have very different conventions
Before interviews
What would you like to do
You should establish, at large, what is the job type you're looking for.
Example criteria you should consider:
- Company type (enterprise, startup)
- Hours at the office (9-5, coming late and staying late, working a lot from home)
- Crisis management (are you OK with being oncall / waking up in the middle of the night)
- Tech area / platform (web, mobile, big data, security)
- Team size (want to be the first of your kind, need a team to learn from and back you up)
- Physical area (how far away from home are you willing to go, will you rent a new apartment if needed)
Expected salary
You should have some magnitude of your paycheck in mind.
You can get a basic idea by:
- Asking your friends/colleagues/fellow students (they might lie. I found that some of my colleagues' self worth was so determined by their salary that they lied in order to not "feel ashamed")
- Checking salary tables. They might be grossly inaccurate but it's better than having no idea at all. Example for one: http://www.sqlink.com/blog/hightechsalary/
CVs
General tip - tailor the CV to your expected position. For instance, avoid mentioning classes that are completely irrelevant (knitting) or over-detailing things that are partially relevant (e.g. when looking for a position as a Software Developer, no one will care about the version of the NetApp appliance you worked with)
Properly divide your CV
These sections are important:
- Familiar technology
Avoid over-specifying (product versions when there is no major difference, for instance)
Try to group by tech (e.g. "html5" and "CSS" should come under "Web") - this is justified if you have 3+ such groups - Employment history
Listing what you did is better than what you worked with.
Example:- "Implemented SharePoint backup end-to-end using NetApp SnapDrive" - Great
- "SharePoint backups" - OK
- "SharePoint, SnapDrive" - Bad
- Objective
If you have one in your CV, it gives readers the first hint on what you're looking to do in your work, which is very interesting for interviewers
Make it easy to read
The CV should be easy to navigate, and short (if possible).
After working on it for a long time you might get used to it and not see the monstrosity it has become.
A good way to test this is to let someone see it (even if they're not from the field).
Should they start to:
- Make weird faces about the layout
- Look scared because the doc is long
- Start straining their eyes due to small/weird font
Then you should probably rework it.
Start a LinkedIn account
LinkedIn is a good place to get your profile exposed to recruiters.
This adds a way to "discover" you, and also an easy way for people to get your CV if they only have your name.
 This is perfectly fine. However, you should plan accordingly, by not interviewing at your dream companies first.
Where to get jobs from
My ranking is based on this rationale: The more information you know about the job before beginning interviews, the better.
- Personal contacts like friends, family and former colleagues are good because:
- They probablly will be accurate about the job (rather than embellishing it)
- They're familiar with both you and the workplace, and can appreciate whether you're going to fit
-
Recruitment agencies are OK, because:
- They want you to find work through them, so they're "on your side"
- The agent you'll be working with probably has more experience than you in the job market, so they might be able to hint you in on things you miss
My tips about recruitment agencies are as follows:
- Avoid agencies that look useless - lazy, disorganized, unprofessional etc. You don't want to waste your time
- Apply at more than one agency
- Be sure to describe all of your job expectations to the agent, so they can filter what they offer you
- Reprimend them if you think they ignore your filters - you don't want them wasting your time
- Insist that the agent coordinate with you before sending your CV to some company. This will both help you filter out companies that don't match your criteria, list where your CV are going and keep tabs on the agent's work
-
Classified ads / job portals are a last resort in my opinion.  Even if you're missing a couple, you can apply
- For some reason, some places think it's acceptable not to reply. Don't take it too hard.
Stick to your filters, sort of
You've already decided what you're looking for.
If you allow yourself to deviate from it too much, you can only end up with offers that you won't want to take.
Avoid filling your schedules with interviews that won't lead anywhere.
However, if something is a bit out of your boundaries but looks promising, it might be OK to try it.
Avoid overscheduling
Interviewing is tiring (at least when it's serious interviews), so if you'll schedule too much during one day, you'll hit the last one(s) exhausted and probably won't do your best.
I think 3 interviews a day is a lot and tried to stick to 2.
Interviewing
Job interviews will probably be a new skill for you to learn, so you might not do very well the first couple of times, as I said above.
Don't panic.
How to behave
This is sort of like a date - you and the interviewer haven't met before (at least not in this context) and are trying to evaluate each other.
Therefore, all sensible guidelines for dates apply here. Be nice, polite, know what you want, show self confidence etc.
Interview them back
The interview is also about you seeing if the company would be a good fit for you, so make sure you tell the interviewer what you're looking for.
You can also ask them about how their workday looks, what team they're designating you for, etc. All according to the progress of the interview (you'll get it eventually).
When failing interviews
Failing something isn't fun, but it's a great learning opportunity.
I'm referring here only to interviews where you didn't pass muster, and nothing like the workplace being a bad match for you etc.
Understand why you failed
Sometimes you have a feel that something didn't go well. You should analyze the situtation and try to understand what you could have done better. However, the main focus should be improving yourself for the next time and not being depressed about making a mistake.
It doesn't hurt to ask
If you're really clueless about what went wrong, you can try asking the interviewer, assuming you can contact them.
Never argue with them - they've made their decision and no good will come from trying to convince them. You're only doing this to get information.
 Best outcome - you'll get some feedback that can help you better yourself.
When passing interviews
In my book, "passing" is when you get an offer. Nothing short of it.
Coordinate your offer window
Usually, each offer has a time window (you should ask if you don't know it). Try to time it so you'll have several offers in the same window. Otherwise, you'd have the Secretary problem, which is a tough problem to solve.

The Growing Pains of Small Wine Production
Nature has an incredible way of offering respite from the daily stresses that plague us.
It’s an early Tuesday morning in late September. My friends and I drive through the backroads of the Santa Cruz Mountains canopied by soaring redwoods that still glisten from early morning dew.
The forest feels peaceful, a stark contrast from the traffic congestion we’ve escaped on the CA-17N as people from Santa Cruz head to work in the South Bay.
We spot a few deer as we make our way up to the Makjavich vineyard, where Megan has been farming with the vineyard’s owner, Larry Makjavich. Today she is harvesting Pinot Noir, and we’ve come to help.
Megan arrives at the vineyard shortly after 8 am with a small group of workers, comprised of friends and a visiting cousin from North Carolina. The winemaker is warm and welcoming, almost zen-like. Her smile is so genuine it’s infectious. Nobody suspects that this will be a long day for her.
After we’ve harvested all the Pinot Noir, Megan will drive her pickup truck 30 miles to her winemaking co-op facility where she’ll shovel 1.6 tons of grapes into the de-stemmer and start pressing them immediately. Later she tells me that she finished her day around 9 pm that night.
As the sole proprietor of Margins Wine, Megan does it all (with the occasional help from friends and family). Some days she will drive three hours to tend to her grapes. Once she camped at Mesa del Sol in Arroyo Seco with owner Ann Hougham before harvesting grapes early the next morning.These are only a few examples of the many challenges to being a small producer.
“A little green is fine,” she says as she explains to us how to select and harvest the grapes. She’s afraid the Pinot might be too ripe. Rising temperatures over the weekend, followed by light rain on Monday, meant that the Pinot had to be picked today.
Megan laughs when she recounts how she stumbled into winemaking. “My high school boyfriend and I were brewing beer at the time. We had this crazy idea that we would open a brewery-winery. He was going to take care of the brewing part, so I had to go to school to learn how to make wine.” And she did.
In 2012, she graduated from UC Davis with a degree in Viticulture and Enology. “Obviously, we are no longer together.” She rolls her eyes. The two separated before Megan finished her degree. But she persevered and went on to apprentice in wineries in California, Oregon, New Zealand, and France before returning home.
“Women are judged on their performance. Men are judged on their potential.”
Unbeknownst to Megan, perseverance is probably one of her greatest strengths. Starting a winemaking business where real estate and cost of living is among the most expensive in the US isn’t easy. And less so as a woman in her twenties trying to make headway in the industry. In her words, it was a very shitty time.
“Women are judged on their performance. Men are judged on their potential.” This is a quote that Megan says has resonated strongly with her. She describes how she’s had to prove herself in order to have the same opportunities as her male counterparts, who’ve been either less experienced or knowledgeable than her. Work always seemed to be a sprint to get things done and then move on to the next thing.
Something shifted though when she spent some time in France. There she discovered that winemaking could be a lifestyle, not just a job. She learned that wine could be made differently from what was taught at school. She saw that you didn’t have to rush all the time.
Megan also fell in love with Chenin Blanc. Soon, she wanted to come home to the US to make wine from underrepresented regions, vineyards and grape varietals. Influenced by winemaking techniques in the Loire Valley, one of the current hotspots for natural wine, she wanted to work with organic fruit.
Finding work back home in the Santa Cruz Mountains proved to be challenging. After working many short-term gigs, she finally landed a stable job working as an assistant winemaker at Beauregard Vineyards in 2015.
“I would do it differently if I had to do it again,” Megan says as we work side by side. In hindsight, the Sierra Foothills would have been cheaper and perhaps an easier location to accomplish her goals.
The sun beats strongly onto the vineyard by nine o’clock. My gloves and pruning shears are sticky with grape juice. Yellowjackets hover over our buckets of grapes, eager to get some breakfast.
After working for a year at Beauregard Vineyards, she started buying her own grapes and producing wine under the name Margins Wine. In December 2017, Megan left Beauregard when her wine production became a full-time job. And the rest is history.
Well, not exactly.
If Megan’s perseverance is impressive, so is her candidness. She never complains, but won’t gloss over the challenges she’s had to face either. Finding farmers willing to sell their grapes to a young female winemaker was more difficult than she had anticipated. “People were skeptical, they wanted to know how I would be able to pay them,” she recounts.
Finding organic fruit was even harder. So Megan began working with small farmers, accompanying them through the transition to organic agriculture if they chose to do so.
“I will work with them for one vintage and give them about 6 months to decide [if they want to transition to organic farming] after that. In the end, if they choose not to, that’s fine. We go our separate ways. I can’t really dictate what people do.”
Today, Megan sources seven different varietals, including Barbera and Chenin Blanc, from six vineyards across the Santa Cruz Mountains and Central Coast. Out of the six, three were already organic when she began working with them.
The others have started transitioning towards organic farming under Megan’s guidance, although one had initially decided that organic wasn’t for them. “I was sad because I really liked working with their grapes. Then they called back six months later saying they were going to transition and wanted to work together again.”
Some members of the crew begin to retreat to the shade as the morning progresses. Others have left to go to their day jobs. The more seasoned harvesters such as retired vineyard owner Larry Makjavich, and Soaring Heart, the youthful seventy-something hippie neighbor, continue to pick grapes unfazed by the beating sun.
For a hobby vineyard owner like Larry, Megan is a godsend. “It’s great to have someone tend the vines with me. And it’s nice to get some money for my grapes afterward.”
Money is something that is on Megan’s mind these days. She wonders where she’ll find enough to pay the rent and feed herself, despite having created a detailed budget at the beginning of the year.
“I have money in the business. But if I take it out to pay myself something, I won’t have any left to buy bottles.” Unforeseeable expenses have recently derailed her financial planning.
“It’s not that my business isn’t doing well,” she continues. “I sell out a week after my wines are released.” But for her business to be viable, Megan estimates that she needs to produce at least 2,500 cases. This year she’s trying to double her 2018 production from 575 to 1,050 cases. As with any small business, scaling is hard with limited resources.
Harvest is the busiest time of the year for wine producers. The work and financial stresses appear to be catching up with Megan. She changes the subject as we reach the final rows of vines. “How did you get into wine?” she asks.
I tell her it was when I saw how wine could create magical connections between people, time, and places.
“Wine used to be like that for me,” she says. “Now, I don’t know…”
A few weeks later, I meet up with Megan again at the Makjavich Vineyard. This time to pick Merlot. She welcomes me with her infectious smile and a hug. It’s her last harvest of the season.
Megan’s been working nonstop since the end of summer. “I have a week to get all of this pressed and into barrels before going to New York,” she explains, excited that the season is finally slowing down.
Her timeline is short because she’s off to pour her wines at the New York and Los Angeles editions of Raw, one of the world’s largest traveling natural wine festivals.
I know she had a meeting at the Santa Cruz County’s Small Business Development Center at Cabrillo College. I ask how it went. “I’m working with an advisor now. He’s helped me look at new types of financing. I’ve started going to meetups. I’m going to look for investors.”
This business advisor has looked at her numbers and thinks Margins Wine’s profits can grow by at least 500 percent in the coming year. Her fall sales were a success; she rapidly sold out again after releasing her bottles.
Sales to direct customers have also increased. “Right now, 40 percent of my sales are direct sales. One day I hope to reach 100 percent. People only need to sign up for the mailing list.”
Megan seems more optimistic than when I last saw her. “I was also able to get some food stamps,” she adds, a weight lifted off her shoulders.
“There was a time when I didn’t think I’d make it,” Megan admits. I ask if this was before or after we had met a few weeks earlier. “I’d say I was right in the middle of it then,” she replies.
