Important Update Regarding the 2012 Limited-Time Holiday Fleet Project

All I am going to say is that people were given the option to buy packs of holiday commodities for Lobi, which could very well have made their way into an uncompleted project.
I guess this is a case of buyer beware, but maybe Lobi should not be used as a currency to obtain things of this nature that have a date-limited lifespan. GPL would have been a better choice and EC's would have been better yet. Just saying...
(Disclaimer: Doesn't affect me, but without the option to turn it off and leave it off until we turn it back on, I regret that we ever did it in our fleet.)

Whether you are shopping for your own hubby or someone else's, DaddyScrubs makes an ideal present for that special daddy to be in your life!
Since DaddyScrubs are super comfy, the hubster has been wearing them as pajamas at night and lounge-wear during the day. When we have company over to see our newborn, people always comment on how much they love the scrubs. One comment in particular that has been said over and over is that the scrubs would make great gifts, especially at baby showers when the father is often feeling left out of the fun and excitement. I couldn't agree more!
The hubster wore his DaddyScrubs in the hospital during and after the birth of our newest addition. Aside from all the nurses and doctors commenting on how awesome they looked, he is by far the greatest fan. Not only does he say how comfortable they were to wear during the day, but the real test was at night in our hospital room when he was constricted to sleeping in a fold-out chair. He said that wearing his DaddyScrubs made him so much more comfortable than the other two times we had hospital births and he slept in regular pj's.
Check out this video to learn more about DaddyScrubs:
Here is a pic of the hubster in his DaddyScrubs, holding our little one, taken just before we left the hospital:
DaddyScrubs are made of 65/35 Poly Cotton which is why the hubster found them really soft. For his convenience, the drawstring pants have one hip pocket & two slash pockets. They also feature a classic V-neck Collar & chest pocket which look pretty awesome, too. Available in size small to 5X Large and in two different writing styles and 3 colours, there is definitely a DaddyScrubs that is perfect for any guy! Oh, and of course I can't forget to mention that they are machine washable ~ so there's no special care instructions which is great because at this point in my no-sleep delirium, I'm pretty sure I'm even throwing my colours in with my whites so reading labels definitely won't be happening anytime soon. Check out these fun pics of celebs wearing DaddyScrubs:
Buy It!
Check out their website, daddyscrubs.com to make a purchase! Love DaddyScrubs but want to see more accessories? You're in luck – "I'm the Daddy™" tees, hoodies, hats, travel mugs are also available, just to name a few! You'll have to check our their website to see everything they offer (make sure to look at their gift sets!), their selection is pretty awesome!
Win it!
One lucky Organic Mama reader will win their very own DaddyScrubs, a $55 value! The winner will choose their size, color, and style of DaddyScrubs. This giveaway is open to residents of Canada and the USA. To enter, simply fill out the rafflecopter form below. Good luck!
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

"Best of PT Deutermann"
I have listened to all of the previous PT Deutermann books and almost didn't buy this one because it seemed like it was out of his normal writing genre. WOW! Am I glad I bought it and I have recommended it to many others. Compelling on so many levels - and Dick Hill, as always, is excellent. He spoils us with his amazing narration. Buy this and listen soon.
"Excellent - both story and narrator"
I always like to listen to the first in a series when I realize a book is part of a series and I'm glad I started here. I will continue right on to the next one this weekend!
"I'll Try Another Farrell & Kearn Thriller"
This was a good one and I'm willing to try another. A few parts dragged toward the end but overall, it was good enough that I'm interested in another from this series.
"Not sure why I put off listening - EXCELLENT book!"
For whatever reason, this one just sat in my library until I finally thought, "Well, I'll give it a try." It was outstanding! I want more of David McCullough's books and Edward Hermann's narration was just right! THANKS for the story and the history.
"Not a likeable character anywhere, but good book"
I certainly kept listening but boy, oh, boy...did I wish there were some likeable characters. There weren't. Overall, worth listening to and I'll read/listen to more of Robotham's books. Going to look for some right now.
"Where is Book 4?! Can't WAIT!!!"
The previous two books were excellent but somehow, this one was even better! Apparently Bruce DeSilva is getting better and better and Liam Mulligan and the people around him - and the stories they're involved in - are more and more interesting. Keep writing! THANK YOU for a great story. The narrator is perfect for these books. Thankful they've kept Jeff Woodman for all the books.
"Getting Ready to Buy Book 3 in the Series"
Keep writing, Bruce. Keep narrating, Jeff. EXCELLENT! Mulligan is smart and interesting and different from the way I sometimes expect him to be. I hope this series continues for at least 5 or 6 books!
"Loved every part of this book"
OUTSTANDING and am thrilled that there are now two more in the series. Just downloaded #2 and am starting to listen tonight! Perfect narrator!
"Bought Book 2 before this one was over"
GREAT! I loved her and the story and the narrator. I am downloading Book 2 in this series right now and hope that Book 3, which is already written, is recorded this week!!
"Not Up to Expectations"
Huge Lincoln Rhyme & Jeffery Deaver fan. I'll buy the next one in the series but if it's not better, then I'll give up. The last couple just haven't been anywhere near as good as the earlier ones. I like the characters but if you didn't know the characters, this book would be completely disjointed. I'll remain hopeful, however.
"Not the best in the series but OK"
HUGE Jonathan Stride fan, but this one was not his best in this series. I'll still buy the next one though. some good parts, no question, but it just didn't hold me like the others have. Still worth a credit.

open/close all folders
Kittan Bachika
Voiced by: Kissho Taniyama (JP), Christopher Corey Smith (EN)
"What's that bozo Kamina gotten himself into now...?A Beastman hunter and eldest of the Bachika siblings, an encounter with Kamina and Simon inspires him to unite a group of stolen Gunmen pilots to join their revolution. Despite not having their charisma or gift with words, he grows to become an excellent field commander. Kittan acquires a red, star-shapped Gunmen in a battle against the Beastmen long before meeting Team Gurren, stealing from its original pilot in similar to how Kamina jacked the Gurren. The moment he took over the Gunmen, the Spiral Power of his fighting spirit morphed it into King Kittan.
Rossiu Adai
Voiced by: Mitsuki Saiga (JP), Johnny Yong Bosch (EN), Michael McConnohie (EN, epilouge)A boy from another underground village, in which the people worship Gunmen as gods. When Gimmy and Darry are chosen the leave the village, Rossiu decides to go with them and they join Team Gurren. Rossiu has a curious and inquisitive nature, often as a result of being sheltered for most of his life by Father Magin in Addai Village, having listened to spiritual preachings that were meant to keep him at ease. His innocence begins to slip away over time, though. It starts when he discovers Father Magin has been preaching lies to protect his people: he made his mother leave Addai Village so its capacity would stay at 50, allowing them to survive. This time around, Gimmy and Darry must leave, but Rossiu leaves the village as well, knowing someone must look after them. Father Magin gives him a book to remember him by as a keepsake- and perhaps one day, learn what the language it's written in means. Rossiu and the kids join Team Gurren on the journey to stop the Spiral King. As he enters more battles, he gains a greater sense of determination, but Kamina enjoys calling him "Forehead Boy" nonetheless. Unfortunately, Kamina's tragic death forces him to take his place as pilot of the Gurren, while watching Simon slip into depression, even being called out for his so-called "god" not saving Kamina from being killed. Eventually, Rossiu goes into battle to face Lordgenome, and ends up watching on in stunned silence.Following the aftermath of the battle and a time skip, Rossiu is now Simon's advisor as he runs the government in Kamina City. However, the arrival of the Anti-Spiral and the panic of the public turn him into a Well-Intentioned Extremist willing to sacrifice everything in order to preserve humanity.
Leeron Litner
Voiced by: Masaya Onosaka (JP), Steve Blum (EN)
"Attaboy, attaboy! You can do it! Way to go! Attaboy, attaboy! You can do it! Way to go! Attaboy!"Leeron, or "Ron," is the flamboyant village mechanic of Littner Village. After taking an interest in Simon's mech he joins Simon, Kamina and Yoko in their quest to defeat the Beastmen. Leeron is astoudingly brillant and innovative, able to whip together his own legion of helper robots and invent ingenious technology with a little tinkering. However... Leeron is also a cross-dresser... figure that one out.
Dayakka Littner
Voiced by: Daiki Nakamura (JP), Doug Stone (EN)The chief of Littner Village, who later becomes the captain of the various Dai-Gurren ships. He's a dedicated protector of his loved ones, a family man, and the initial pilot of the Dayakkaiser, a Gunmen he hijacked in battle against the Beastmen, until Yoko (and once, Kiyoh) decides to commandeer it. Seven years later, he falls insanely in love with Kiyoh Bachika and marries her, then proceeds to get busy with her and have a baby girl named Anne. Unfortunately, Anne's birth brings the human population to the deadly number one million- which sets off a defense system to attack Earth the moment it detects the new life.
Attenborough Cortitch
Voiced by: Daisuke Kirii (JP), Derek Stephen Prince (EN)
"When it comes to spacey interruptions, I'm your man!"The gunner of Team Dai-Gurren and Plucky Comic Relief. Attenborough actually isn't an official member of the team- he hid in some guy's suitcase and snuck onto the crew unnoticed- until he got behind the control panel of a weapons system. Only knows one tactic: FIRE! FIRE! FIRE!
Darry and Gimmy Adai
Darry: Shizuka Ito (JP), Mela Lee (EN)
Gimmy: Takako Honda (JP), Brianne Siddall (EN)Gimmy and Darry are twin children from Rossiu's home village. When they were children, they were removed from their village due to limit population because they were orphans. However, Rossiu joined them along with Team Gurren(later known as Team Dai-Gurren).After the timeskip, they both became pilots of the Grapearl mass-production mecha, serving as the faces of the new generation that was pushing Team Dai-Gurren aside... only to discover they need to re-think their positions...
Balinbow and Jougan Bakusa
Balinbow: Kouzou Douzaka (JP), Paul St Peter (EN)
Jougan: Go Shinomiya (JP), Tony Oliver (EN)The towering, twin brothers of Team Dai-Gurren, piloting the two-faced Gunmen, Twinboekun, and also Space Twinboekun. They are extremely loud and exuberant brothers who love to beat stuff up- but seem to have the minds of cavemen. That, and they think staggeringly alike. The brothers often speak in monosyllabic bursts, but their battle prowness is terrifying. Somehow, they end up with government positions after the time skip. Sadly, they don't live to the very end. To keep the Anti-Spirals from wasting Gimmy and Darry, they put their own Gunmen in the line of fire to throw their disabled Grapearls to safety, which leads to their deaths- but the following explosion takes out a good number of enemy mecha. A memorial is erected in their honor. The second movie, however, spares them the shaft and they get to square off in the Final Battle.
Makken Jokin
Voiced by: Katsuyuki Konishi (JP), Keith Silverstein (EN)
"Sorry- it took awhile for me to find a sitter for the kids."The stout, often silent member of Team Dai-Gurren, and pilot of Mo-Shogun, and later, Space Mo-Shogun. Makken is keen to the art of the samurai, having a very deep sense of honor. Much like Kamina, he's very profound with swords, and shares a love for building machines with Leyte. After seven years go by, he falls madly in love with her and gets married, having three kids, acting as a humble mechanic in his retirement from the team- until he has to spring to action again against a new threat. Fortunately, he and Leite were entrusted with the team's former Gunmen but instructed to scrap the due to the presence of "superior" Grapearls. Luckily, they refused to do so, instead improving the Gunmen to new heights. However, while Makken lives up to the name of "samurai," the poor guy also goes out like a samurai. When the Anti-Spirals unleash a volley of deadly missiles on the Super Galaxy Gurren Lagann, one appears in its blind spot on direct collision course with the starship. After heavily struggling to stop the previous missles, Team Dai-Gurren can't stop this one- so Makken charges in and plunges his Space Mo-Shogun's sword deep into the warhead, detonating it seconds before impact, but killing him in the explosive inferno. A memorial pays tribute to him afterward. Lucky for us, he lives in the second movie and displays even more badass swordplay.
Leyte Jokin
Voiced by: Takako Honda (JP), Laura Bailey (EN)The chief mechanic of Team Dai-Gurren. She's a compassionate and dedicated worker who can concoct amazing new weapons and implement new technology seamlessly. Soon after Dai-Gurren defeats the Spiral King, she gets married to Makken and has three kids. Following the disbanding of the team, she and Makken are tasked with dismantling the old Gunmen- but the two of them aptly refuse to do so, and instead keep them in top condition. Even better- when she's able to harness the production facilities of the Super Galaxy Dai Gurren, she helps create the massive Space Gunmen fleet. However, Makken ends up giving his life to protect her and the starship- but she stays strong and continues fighting to avenge him, despite going home to her heartbroken children. Fortunately, Makken survives in Lagann-Hen, and the family lives happily ever after.
Voiced by: Rina Sato (JP), Karen Strassman (EN)The eldest of Kittan's younger sisters, and by far the most developed. Kiyoh is a sly blonde with a sassy attitude, and a champion at using a yo-yo in ways that would make your jaw drop to the floor- if her curvaceous figure didn't already do that. Eventually, she discovers Dayakka is crushing on her. After the timeskip, she marries Dayakka and gives birth a little girl named Anne- the one millionth human.
Voiced by: Kana Ueda (JP), Stephanie Sheh (EN)The second oldest of Kittan's younger sisters. After Team Dai-Gurren's capture of Dai-Gunzan, she takes up a position within its control tower, monitoring the radar. She seems to be the calmest and smartest member of the Black Siblings. She hardens up after the time skip, becoming harsh and drastic in response to Rossiu's actions. However, it only serves to reveal she's doing it out of pure, unrestrained love for him- and after a very, very horrible experience where he tries to take his life, she has a meltdown and ends up right in his arms. We can only assume this led to marriage.
Voiced by: Kana Asumi (JP), Gina Bowes (EN)The youngest of Kittan's younger sisters. She's quite the tomboy. Kiyal is the playful little sis of the Black Siblings, often joking at the situation and keeping a bright but forceful attitude about her. She pilots the Kiyalunga, a suprisingly adorable pink Gunmen with a big smile on its face.

Sam Vaknin videos help to understand what drives Obama
"[A]ttention of any kind positive or negative constitutes Primary Narcissistic Supply. Infamy is as sought after as fame, being notorious is as good as being renowned." I've linked this before, but it's a good reminder. He's addicted to narcissistic supply; it's all about him, and there is very little he won't do to keep himself at the top of the headlines. He doesn't care about harm to individuals or our system of government.

The reception lady was very friendly
Compared to the many other places we stayed on our road trip through USA, this was the most expensive and for no apparent reason. The breakfast was also not something to look forward to.
Location and value for money.
great value for the price. room much nicer than expected. exceptionally clean. plenty of towels.
would like to have had an extra blanket.
bathrooms were clean, rooms clean and beds were comfortable. We really like having the fridge so we were able to take our cooler packs and drinks and keep them cold.
No coffeemaker in the rooms. Though coffee is offered in the lobby, I prefer being able to have coffee available in my room and not having to get dressed to go and get our first morning coffee and carry cups of hot liquid back to the rooms without it sloshing out onto our hands. Also there was no close captioning function for the TV and it's very hard to adjust volume so you don't disturb other guests but still be able to hear it and this is a real problem if one has hearing problems. However this particular issue we've encountered at other hotels and it makes no sense; CC function does not cost anything.
Fair price. Clean and quiet.
Small rooms and bathroom. During my one night stay, the wifi cannot be connected. The front desk said they are working on this problem. But I still cannot connect to wifi when I checked out.
Nice, clean and quiet. Excellent value for money. Excellent restorant next door!!
Locating the Hotel through 'Google Maps' was disasterous.
No chair in the room. Queen bed for two people.
Their attitude and facilities are pet friendly: they have a grassed area in the back meant to be used as dog area, and even give your pet a welcoming cookie! The room was spacious, nicely decorated and well equiped (TV and cable, wifi, iron press, microwave and fridge, hair dryer, etc).
Location is a bit far from downtown Ithaca, but if you don´t mind driving 5-10 minutes, its fine!
The location was convenient for our one night stay while traveling between two state park campgrounds. The rooms were comfortable and met our needs. The staff was friendly and recommended a local restaurant for dinner. Breakfast selection had a good variety. There was a problem with the plumbing that shut down water for the entire motel while it was being fixed. The manager discounted our stay. When I came home I checked my credit card statement and found I had been charged for both rooms, not just one. It only took one phone call to the motel to have it corrected. Things sometimes break and mistakes happen but they took action to make everything right. You can't ask more than that.
Plumbing problem and duplicate billing.
The helpfulness of the staff
rooms very basic; non-smoking rooms smelled of stale cigarette smoke
The room was way over priced. I realize it was the beginning of the school year but I feel very cheated. The halls wreaked of cigarette smoke and I don't dare to guess what else. The bathroom was so small I kept hitting my arms. I would rather sleep in my vehicle than to return.
Pet friendly - helpful staff - clean room - good location
Nothing fancy - basic room -
End of hall room close to front desk.
Housekeeping took hand towels that were dirty but didn't leave clean ones to replace them. Also was hit or miss on emptying trash. Pillows were small and bed was hard!
The hotel smelled and we had a smoking room that was very smelly. We had to purchase air freshener snd leave the window open all night. We paid $ 150 which was quite excessive for what we got.
The staff was friendly. Complimentary breakfast was good for what it's worth. Wifi, tv and cable good for the value.
They are in the middle of remodeling so some leeway is given, but the main halls had a musty smell, the bathroom in the room was cramped and needed an update, and the air conditioner made the room smell a bit. For $135 a night it was a bit lacking... Hopefully the remodel addresses these issues. Although it was not a terrible experience, the word "mediocre" sums it up.
Clean, had the basics including fridge and microwave.
Blanket was sheet thin. Very slow basin drain. No hair conditioner. Couldn't re-enter from 2 side doors because didn't work ("waiting for parts") so had to use front entrance where there was construction. Construction started early morning - asphalt fumes were unbearable. Couldn't hear TV or talk on phone due to equipment noise. Had to leave earlier than anticipated due to the maintenance noise/fumes that started about 8 am. Should have scheduled it between 11am-3pm when guests are supposed to be gone.
their was construction going on. noisy and lots of workers around front entrance and lobby. The next day the whole lobby smelled badly of very strong paint. I guess it has to happen sometime, but a heads up would have been appreciated.
Fridge and microwave in room.
No fire sprinklers. Door to room would not close. Key card quit working 5 times.
Good wifi, convenient location. Clean and comfortable, though renovations should be made clear to those who seek peace and quiet during the day/afternoon.
Exit door outside my room (first floor) did not open in the morning. Very dangerous given it's the emergency exit. Was not warned of renovations during the day. Construction chemical smells and noises are headache triggers for many. Very inconvenient to not be able to enter the side door when my room was the first one inside it. Very inconvenient!
convenient to where i needed to go clean friendly staff
air conditioner just cooled room. payment disagreement with another guest as i was checking in
It was a great location for all the places we wanted to see. It was also a great value.
I wish there was a workout facility.
Suite like appointments. Eating table and chairs, fridge, microwave. Comfortable bed.
No sheers of curtains behind blackout drapes. We were on ground floor near entrance. opening our drapes to let light in put us in full view of passersby. Second floor occupant walking around heard in our room.
Location was good. Clean. Soundproof walls. Nice variety of foods for breakfast :)
Went to check in and no one was at the front desk. Had to wait three-five minutes before someone showed up. Bed and pillows weren't that soft and comfortable.
The hotel is placed just in shopping center and as we stayed there on really rainy day we appreciated the location the most
the breakfast was poor

sunnystaines, my download of beta4 only lasted a couple of days as well but I never realised till you said. I remember checking my calander in case I had changed the date by mistake. Nor realising it was beta4 and still thinking it was beta3 I just thought it had ran out.

AES E-Library
A Graphical Tool Set for Analyzing Wave Field Synthesis Algorithms
Current Wave Field Synthesis (WFS) rendering realizations consist of large structures of audio signal processing components (filters, delays, amplitude weighting) that are controlled by complex algorithms based on the virtual source's properties. This paper proposes a set of tools that is used to analyze the underlying WFS coefficient calculation algorithms visually by mapping characteristic measures dependent on the source's and listener's position. These measures are derived from the reproduction system's idealized transfer function and parametric impulse response description. They reveal functional aspects of the algorithm's behavior. The measures aim at supporting an intuitive understanding of the perception of virtual sound events in a Wave Field Synthesis system, but also they facilitate the basic algorithm development process.

F1 season so far: The winners and losers
Formula 1 is heading into its summer break, so it is a good time to reflect on the season so far. I have picked some winners and losers from the first 11 races of what has so far been a great world championship season. WINNERS NICO ROSBERG Nico Rosberg is one of my big winners. He came into the season as the underdog at Mercedes. He was that bit slower than team-mate Lewis Hamilton and there was a sense that if Hamilton got a hold of the season, he would run away with it. After Hamilton won that wonderful battle between them in Bahrain back in April, that was the way it appeared to be going. Hamilton was on a bit of a roll with four straight wins after his retirement from the first race of...

That's the new Barismo El Bosque. Grown in Guatemala, roasted in Somerville. It tastes a little bit like green apple. Sort of a sweet puckering end to a really delicious, chocolatey cup. If you haven't had it, stop by, we're pouring at all locations. We asked Pete of Barismo what kind of donuts would pair well with that. So Enzo's going to attempt a green apple glaze for our Coffee and Donuts event on December 5th.
There are only a few tickets left. Your ticket includes a coffee and two donuts. And most importantly, you'll get to meet and talk to Pete, who buys and roasts coffee in a really revolutionary way.
Get yours before Thanksgiving, and you'll have something to look forward to when you get back…
Brussels sandwich might get a stay of execution thanks to Harvard Crimson reporter
We work with two major distributers to get produce that we don't have enough volume to justify sourcing directly from a farm. We were getting brussels from Czajkowski Farm through Russo's, and then we started getting California brussels in instead. Chris called and talked to the folks at Russo's and they said that no one has local brussel sprouts anymore. So with a heavy heart, we decided to pull the brussels sandwich from the menu.
Meanwhile, Ivan, a Harvard Crimson reporter, was doing a story on the demise of the brussels at Clover. Ayr talked to Ivan, who talked to Joe Czajkowski Farm, who said they still had brussels!
Chris called Russo's again, they claimed they didn't have them or couldn't get them, so Chris called the farm…and they have 140 cases, with another week of harvesting left!
Chris talked to Costa (another distributor) and they are accepting a delivery from Czajkowski Farm tomorrow, so they are adding on 16 cases for us to have. Costa said that they weren't buying the end of his brussels crop because the size is all over the place, small as marbles and big as bulbs. We're going to look at it when it comes in on Friday (we're closed Thursday) and make a decision. If we like the brussels, this may mean we extend the sandwich for a few more weeks.
Jack's Abby buying all local malt
We had a Jack's Abby beer launch last Thursday. We launched Lashes, a Winter Seasonal lager. If you haven't tried it, stop by CloverHSQ. We have it on tap.
I got a chance to chat with Sam, one of the brewers. He mentioned Valley Malt. Some of you may remember us talking about Valley Malt back in 2010. Andrea Stanley runs one of the only malt-houses in Massachusetts. They take locally grown grain and create malt. Brewers then purchase the malt through a program similar to a CSA, but for brewers.
Sam told me that they're buying all local malt from Andrea at Valley Malt. He thinks Jack's Abby might be Valley Malt's largest account. This was really surprising to me. The local brewing revolution is more widespread than I thought. You can find Jack's Abby in almost every package store in the area. You can drink them at Cheesecake Factory. And we're going through a crazy amount of kegs here at Clover.
[Our next beer launch is coming up on 12/4: click here to mark your calendars for the launch of Aeronaut at Clover!]
Thanksgiving Hours…and your post-Thanksgiving Beer Launch
If you have family in town and want to share Clover, we'll be open on Thanksgiving for breakfast and lunch at CloverHSQ. Read on for hours at other locations…and a plug for a beer launch after Thanksgiving!
Wednesday 11/26: all locations open normal hours
Thursday 11/27: CloverHSQ open 7am-5pm, all other locations closed
Friday 11/28: all trucks closed, all restaurants open normal hours

When you return from Thanksgiving Break, mark your calendars! We're working on a very special beer launch with a brand new brewery.
"It's expensive and breaks"
We were touring Blue Bottle's roasting facilities in NYC the other day (I'll post more on that shortly), and I noticed these interesting orbs at the back of the space. I asked about them and was told that they were a new tea brewing apparatus that Blue Bottle was testing. You might know I love tea. So I was obviously interested. I asked how they work and the staff sort of moaned. They said that basically they are "very expensive and break."
Of course I hadn't left NYC before ordering a set on Amazon. They weren't as expensive as I feared, and I ordered 3 to try out. We tested our current recipes and alternates. Turned out existing recipes were really tight. I made up a little nifty sheet telling staff how to use them and care for them. And I added something we don't usually do when testing, a list to use to mark off how many uses they've seen. I want to know brew to break ratio to see if these are feasible.
They're at work right now at our Harvard Square location. Check them out and tell us what you think. They fit right in line with the coffee rack, which is awesome. And really, I've never found anything that's done such a killer job making tea sexy. You know poor tea, for one it's not addictive like coffee. Two, it doesn't come out of a steaming loud espresso machine, or from a careful pour-over set-up. Even the humble insulated coffee dispenser has mystery. Tea is normally a bag floating in water. So I welcome anything that will elevate our impression of tea. And the teas we're buying and brewing are out of this world. They're some of the best you can buy anywhere in the US. I'm hoping more customers get to try them if we use this apparatus. Tell us what you think.
(Yes, and I realize I very well may have jinxed our perfect record of no breaks by posting about how great these are. Let's hope not.)
First-ever tailgate special, 11/22, CloverHSQ
I have an intern who goes to Harvard (her name is also Lucia, so she goes by Lucia2). When we were first meeting about ideas, she told me we should do something to celebrate Harvard-Yale.
The cabbage soda isn't a joke, or a diss for Yale. It's arguably even more delicious than the cranberry punch.
Tour Clover HFI pre-construction
We've been pretty quiet on HFI here. Sorry about that. We've been waiting for what seems like ages to get our construction permit. Our landlord waited over a month just to get the permit to install the storefront.
Well we're getting closer. LL work is complete and we're expecting our building permit shortly. So I thought I'd share a little video tour that shows the space pre-construction. This is going to look very different very quickly. It's super exciting. We'll give a series of video tours, like This Old House! And along the way I'll post here about what it takes to get a restaurant up and running.
To start with I thought I'd share some basic timelines for those interested. I would have loved this sort of data when I was writing my Clover business plan. I'm including here the fastest we've ever done it and typical. We've had some worse than "typical" situations, but not many, so I'll keep this simple:
- From finding a space we like to Letter of Intent (LOI): 1 day (fastest) – 1.5 months (typical)
- LOI to Lease: 1 month – 2 months
- Architectural Drawings: 3 weeks – 2 months (sometimes we begin this while still working lease, a risk but can speed things up)
- Engineer Drawings: 5 weeks – 3 months (this is brutally long, and cannot be done until after architectural drawings)
- Construction: 3 weeks – 6 weeks (we're pretty fast here, many in our industry take longer)
- Pre open: 0 days – 2 weeks (we're starting to play with longer pre-open periods. They cost us money, and keep you from great food, but they support a cleaner open and better more consistent operations from day 1)
So that's a rough timeline. We typically budget a minimum of 6 months give or take for a new restaurant, though many take twice that time. For HFI we started this process late spring, so even though it feels like forever we're actually sort of on time. And we got that 24 hour license : )
Yeah, I was a Brussel for Halloween
I have no shame. Thanks, American Apparel, for providing me with a stalk-colored onesie.
You can eat Brussels (the sandwich) for another week or so, before we switch to another immensely popular seasonal sandwich. Did someone say Pushpir?
Don't worry though, the Brussels will remain at MIT year-round. You can thank me for that one too.
What will you find in a Winter Moon Roots farmshare?
This picture was from the root-washing station at Michael's farm. Some of you have been asking exactly what's going to come in this winter CSA we've been talking about. This is a true deep-winter share. Every two weeks, you'll get a bag with a total of between 10-12 pounds of certified-organic carrots, beets, radishes, turnips, parsnips, garlic, rutabaga, and potatoes grown by Michael Docter in Hadley, MA.
NEW THIS YEAR. You'll also receive 1 package (of 12) fresh-made tortillas made from heirloom non-GMO corn harvested in Hadley and baked by Jorge at Mi Tierra Tortillas. These tortillas will be baked the morning of the share so they'll arrive in Cambridge warm out of the oven.
An artichoke grows in Massachusetts
Ray showed us a little side project: artichokes.
He didn't grow these for customers, but for himself, just to see if it would work.
I was still having trouble believing this. Land so good that an artichoke will grow in Massachusetts? We're still trying to persuade Ray to grow some for Clover for a 3pm special next year. In the meantime you can support Ray and Michael by joining their Winter Farm Share.

Soft sweet dough that is swirled with raspberry jam for a delicious bread.
Combine warm milk and water in bowl; add yeast. Stir to dissolve. Stir in 2 3/4 cups flour, sugar, butter, egg and 1 teaspoon salt until soft dough forms.
Turn dough out onto lightly floured surface. Knead dough, adding additional flour 1 tablespoon at a time, if necessary, 5-10 minutes or until dough is smooth. Place dough into greased bowl; turn greased-side up. Cover; let rise 45-60 minutes or until double in size.
Knead dough 30 seconds on lightly floured surface. Cover; let rest 10 minutes.
Roll dough into 15x10-inch rectangle. Combine jam and 1/8 teaspoon salt in bowl. Spread dough with jam mixture to within 1/2 inch of edge. Roll up, beginning with 15-inch side. Place onto large greased baking sheet. Form into circle; pinch ends to seal. Cut 3/4 the way through dough every 1 1/2 inches on outside edge with kitchen shears or serrated knife. Twist each section of dough, turning it on side to form ring. Cover; let rise 30-45 minutes or until double in size.
Heat oven to 350°F.
Bake 20-30 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan; cool completely on cooling rack.
Combine powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon orange juice and orange zest, if desired, in bowl. Add enough additional orange juice for desired glazing consistency. Drizzle over cooled bread.

We never get this for breakfast because I can't keep my family out of it! Great treat!
Very nice! Looks and tastes great! The bread is moist and soft. I can't wait to try different jams. Didn't use the salt in the jam either. This is going to make a wonderful breakfast treat tommorrow.
Made with all purpose flour and just regular jam (any flavor) for a moist, attractive and not overly sweet treat! We enjoy it for coffee break at our house.
