  Recent measurements of the neutrino mixing angles cast doubt on the validity
of the so-far popular tri-bimaximal mixing ansatz. We propose a parametrization
for the neutrino mixing matrix where the reactor angle seeds the large solar
and atmospheric mixing angles, equal to each other in first approximation. We
suggest such bi-large mixing pattern as a model building standard, realized
when the leading order value of the reactor angle equals the Cabibbo angle.
