text: Lotus claims that team structure can cope with personnel losses 17 September, 2013 Lotus HQ Lotus has been the victim of a 'brain drain' as more powerful teams waved chequebooks to lure key people away from the Enstone based outfit. In quick succession, Ferrari has poached Lotus' technical director James Allison, star driver Kimi Raikkonen, and aerodynamics chief Dirk de Beer. Auto Hebdo claims that computational fluid dynamics boss Jarrod Murphy is also departing. Speaking before the latest wave of departures became clear, Lotus' chief executive Patrick Louis said: "It is clear that the average wage at the top teams is higher than ours. "At certain levels, their salaries far exceed the standards." Louis insists, however, that the Enstone based team will continue to thrive, "People only see the visible part of the iceberg – the stars, let's say." "But our structure is designed so that I am able to replace the various heads of the divisions overnight. A team should not be a house of cards [which] collapses when someone leaves." It must also be noted that the Lotus-Ferrari exchange has not been all one-way. It emerged this week that Nicolas Hennel de Beaupreau, a well-regarded aerodynamicist, is leaving Ferrari, bound for the Enstone based team. Italy's Autosprint reports that a deal may have been struck between the two teams, allowing both Hennel and the Ferrari-bound Dirk de Beer to avoid the customary 'gardening leave'. Correspondent Alberto Antonini speculates that the 'gardening leave' deal might even be tied up with long time driver Felipe Massa's possible move from Ferrari to Lotus for 2014. (GMM.)

This came from Good Seasons, I think, when I bought a cruet. It goes really well on any salad or fresh greens, but I particularly like it over baby spinach. It doesn't take too much. The lemon juice gives it quite the bite. It also makes for a tasty marinade for chicken or fish. (Be sure to note that the nutritional info listed is for the entire cup of dressing, not the little bit you'd actually be putting on your salad.)

Hello,my friend. October has over.So now the new month begin.Welcome to November,my friend. Yes.Just another one more month so end of 2014.Time is so fast. Ok!Let's us talk about November what we have. Winter had come as we say. So I will be preparing winter feel in. So what we have in November?
First of all in November we have a friend will be appear in my Birthday Gallery in November the list of November birthday people they are since War of the North Version 2 in we have Michelle,Wen Di and Reugan. In this year our theme is Battle Art theme as for Michelle and Wen Di both of them have appear in my Birthday Gallery few year back but Reugan is new in this theme and he will appear in this month of November.
Did you remember in September I did an art once for honorable some real people in and this month I will did one for honor a real people and this people they have appear in here. Who am I talking with?Soon you will be know. Honorable.Yes!Even some of the user request in this month they will appear in too but this request the user wanted me to do it in Sexy and Mature Gallery I think it will wroth the point since winter is here need something to warm up.
Teammate Gallery and Family Picture for November will also taking part in.
Here are the people I respect and love.
Hihihi,my friend. After watching the OC lady from in my Sexy and Mature Gallery now our next art will move to Family Picture again. Recently is Warcraft so this time we go for Fanart of game side. So we go for Age of Empire 2 it been awhile this game has appear in my Crossover Gallery Memories of Age of Empires 2 in 2011.Ah yes!Few year back now it has been back but we don't go for crossover again.
So today you see I made four boxes in and each box I put the campaign heroes in or actually should called the campaign name. However this four heroes in here they are my great fan in Age of Empires 2 and I always keep lovely to play again and again. So behold Ladies and Gentlemen I gave you all the four of my favor story they are Joan of Arc,Frederick I Barbarossa,Attila the Hun and El Cid this four are my favor story in my Age of Empires 2 although Saladin and Genghis Khan are also my fan too but compare this four they are my mainly favor story should play.Why?
Joan of Arc was a savior of the Franks in the Hundred Year War in 15th century and the commander of the French Forces against the Kingdom of British the reason why I like Joan of Arc because she is only hero in Age of Empires 2 is a female hero and her story is quite interesting to play with and her story I love to play her first mission,second mission,third mission,fourth mission and the last mission this five stage are really good enjoy it.If you want to know her much you can study her profile in here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joan_of_… and in the art in here I made look more like a commander plan her next attack on British I have saw many people in here made Joan's hair is yellow than others color so I believe Joan hair go for yellow quite match her look.
Next to her is Barbarossa in the game he has great red beard and he was the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire in 12th century his story is focus on his rise of the empire to the crusades in Middle East when he met his end so his art I made he might be in Middle East as he serve as one of the crusades forces in led his Holy Roman Army to face the army of Saracens led by Saladin.His story side I like to play fourth one when he comfort the Lombard League forces. If you want to know him much you can study his profile en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederic….
Ok!Below of two of them is another great hero but t they are from the Conqueror side below of Joan is Attila the Hun,the Hunnic King from the Fall of the Western Roman Empire time he is most powerful barbarian king in the Roman history.His campaign is based its namesake's conquests of the Roman Empire,the establishment of the Hunnic Empire and his death.In the game Attila I don't much like to play his first,second and third much but his fourth when he invade Gaul which now call France until the Fall of Rome his last story so his art in here we know Attila like the others heroes in Age of Empire 2 campaign are most villain one so villain it will be his background should be most evil so making burning and his look more like terrify one. If you want to know this barbarian king you can study his profile in here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attila.
Finally the last one is also from the Conqueror side behold El Cid.El Cid was a Spanish nobleman and military leader.His story of his military service under King Sancho of Castille,as well as his exile to the Moorish lands,and his eventual death,are all depicted in the El Cid campaign for El Cid story I love to play especially the second mission,third mission,fourth mission and the final mission.If you want know him much you can always see his profile in here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/El_Cid his background art I made him look young and handsome among the three heroes in and the background of his will be Valencia castle when he rule over there and I gave him a lance when in the game use a lance when he is on horseback.
Now I am listening Heavenly Voice from Samurai Warriors 4. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eCGERO…
Well! In the end I hope you all enjoy it so much with this :giggle: and you are free to comment it or it.
Joan of Arc belong to French

Hello,my friend. After watching Anthea and Lisa from in my Sexy and Mature Gallery and now our next art is also a request too and once again in Sexy and Mature Gallery.
So our next user is .This user I have always obverses her in when he draw her D&D character sometime ago so one day I ask them her character where they come from and she told me they are from D&D and I ask her back D&D stand for what and she told me D&D stand for Dungeons and Dragons and I ask her I want to do request for her and she say yes and allow me to draw all her D&D but truly she has a lot character in there but I can't draw all in one art but only I pick few girls in and I pick only five out of the others.However each girls she made have their name and power in.So we start at the right of the art in.
So behold Ladies and Gentlemen I gave you all the five ladies name as named they are Shaeva,Sorashana or Sora as well,Mika,Sariel and the last one is Khashana. Well!I only pick this five and this five caught by my eye desire to draw them in but however they are still others quite look good but space is a problem to me here but draw this five it will be good enough. Somehow this art may look like a beauty contest. However after this art done I wish :iconMaelore69: will enjoy it and hope she will ask me to draw again.
Ok!Back to the background I will put the five in a oasis area which they can do line up pose with a sexy theme actually she ask me do whatever I want I can do for Crossover Gallery,Modern Life Gallery,Teammate Gallery or Family Picture but I think Sexy and Mature Gallery to her is very suitable for her now.

How I know and his girls when one day saw a commission art from which draw his Lisa out and I saw very unique why they put mature content and he reply me back because very sexy and we have a chat on the day and finally I request him to draw Lisa out but he decided to ask me to add another his girl in,Anthea and it turn out a lesbian art and lesbian art is my best thing to do once they ask me to make a love art out lesbian is consider my best skill in.
Well! In the end I hope you all enjoy it so much with this and you are free to comment it or it.
Hello,my friend. After watching the Bell Sisters in my Ultimate Rarest Hunt now we move our next art.So our next art will be in Family Picture. Ah!Back again with Warcraft. This time we go for Wrath of the Lich King side. Well!We back to Northrend again. So I will made four boxes in and I will use Wrath of the Lich King theme in since we are talking Wrath of the Lich King.So in here I pick four ladies from Wrath of the Lich King in.
So behold Ladies and Gentlemen I gave you all the four ladies from Wrath of the Lich King they are Alexstrasza,Grand Widow Faerlina,Brigitte Abbendis and Vereesa Windrunner.Actually their name appear in my art but expect Alexstrasza I miss a s in. Well!This four ladies can see them most of the time in Wrath of the Lich King.
About their background I used Wrath of the Lich King area.One by one first because each ladies background is not a same place.So the first one we go for Alexstrasza her background is Wyrmrest Temple next is Grand Widow Faerline her background is Naxxramas next is Brigitte Abbendis her background is countryside this background may refer to Grizzly Hills and finally,Vereesa Windrunner her background is Dalaran.

Hihihi. After watching Reugan Battle Art in my Birthday Gallery.Now we move to our next art.Our next art will be the same as last month,September.Did you remember this one in September,Honor to The Ren Family.Today is the same one but another group.
Compare with this new group and Honor to The Ren Family side.This one is a Teammate Gallery type and this three ladies have appear in DA .
So behold Ladies and Gentlemen I gave you all the three ladies in the art they are Olivia Bell,Rosanna Bell and Sasha Bell,the Bell Sisters.As we know they are very good in photographer and they have appear in DA.You can see them in here is Olivia, is Rosanna and is Sasha. Like the Ren Family this one is also real people I honor them but they from UK,United Kingdom. For the Bell Sisters you have came across their photo mostly themselves,they love horses I think they have their own horse and scenery too. They took photo have their own skill and turn out very good.
Ok!Back to the art here each three I made is mostly base on their profile in here love horse,fashion and scenery look.First is Olivia I will let her riding a horse since the Bell Sisters have their own taste of horses very impressive actually I like horse too next Rosanna I will made her fashion type she look quite charming in here. Ah!The finally one is Sasha I will base her on scenery type enjoy winter with a hot coffee. Talk about winter we are in November and winter had come.
Like the Ren.The Bell Sisters I may know a bit in here Olivia is the eldest among them,Rosanna is the second and the last is Sasha is the youngest one.No one ever know in here the Bell Sisters are consider talented in photograph but they are well connect with one of the Ren member,Desiree Ren. They have been friend quite some time and I was impressive in here Desiree know them like classmate type.From Malaysia to UK.Not bad.Not bad. But Desiree know them well to me is a great mystery maybe I know Desiree like fashion and they like fashion end up they are on the same boat.
I have a chat with them long time ago I said I hope to see them appear in my country,Malaysia and I believe Desiree will be great honor welcome them.
I'll build a little collection of these my beautiful music that I used in here.Here's my collection:

Is there anything bacon DOESN'T go with?
- Bat Guano Dec 15, 2008 01:07 PM
I can't think of anything. I guess this makes bacon the perfect food. Any dissenters? Provide examples of what bacon doesn't go with - IF YOU DARE!
re: Potrezebie
As a matter of taste alone, that's certainly not true. And, as I neglected to mention, taste is the only criterion I'm interested in.
re: Potrezebie
Well that is very true!
I ate a chocolate bar a friend gave me recently.
Dark, rich and filled with bacon.
It was, truly, magnificent.
re: latindancer
Vosage makes one like that. Omgod. To die for.
re: chicgail
that would be the Vosges Mo's Bacon Bar
re: latindancer
I wish I had purchased that bar I saw at Jungle Jim's in Cinncinati a few weekends ago.
re: Potrezebie
Just wondering, Potrezebie - are you related to Melvin Kowfnoski by any chance?
re: Glencora
Hmm. I'll have to give it a shot.... what kind of cherries?
re: Bat Guano
Bing. It tasted a bit like cough syrup. Don't waste good bacon on it!
I like the taste of bacon, but IMHO it's the strong umami factor that makes it so popular; pork in general has a lot. We are also attracted to smoky foods, in spite of the carcinogenic properties.
Lots of other foods have good umami content, and for me are almost always more appropriate. Mushrooms, tomatoes, etc., etc. Again, for me, many dishes are better without bacon or any pork product; i.e., for clam or fish chowder bacon or salt pork make an already dense dish cloying and heavy(er).
re: Richard 16
If there is I have not found it
re: Richard 16
Yeah, mushrooms and tomatoes are great, too, but they don't have the universal appeal of bacon - the combination of umami and fat, porkiness, and smokiness is just hard to beat. For pure umami I've lately been using fish sauce in all kinds of things; but it's still no replacement for bacon. I don't agree that bacon makes fish and clam chowder too heavy - sometimes I like them without, but more often with. Mmmm, onions frying in bacon grease - is there any better smell in the world?
re: Bat Guano
There is no *universal* appeal for bacon. Certainly popular, but hardly universal.
As for "replacing" bacon, who said anything about that? If I want bacon, I eat it. It is, as always, a question of personal taste. I love natto; it disgusts others. And, of course, feel free to not agree with me about bacon in the chowders. I find it cloying and distracting, but I guess I'm just a simple guy.
For me, onions fried in bacon can smell great but most of the time I prefer them in butter, sometimes in EVOO, and sometimes a combo. For pure onion flavor nothing for me beats a dry salt saute.
re: Richard 16
i don't think of tomatoes as "umami"....
re: alkapal
Hi alkapal!
A bit on tomatoes and umami:
Perhaps you've been coring supermarket tomatoes ;-)...
re: Richard 16
richard, thanks for that -- it is a very interesting article.
i grew up in sw florida with real tomatoes. we never cut out the seeds. i know now in some trendy places, the seeds alone are served and thus highlighted. i think they're cute, and like the little burst of tart-sweet flavor in each one. ;-).
and come to think of it, tomato paste adds umami to all sorts of dishes -- even with just a tablespoon.
supermarket tomatoes ALWAYS make me sad -- even the touted camparis (which i will buy if i get a craving, or want to make my little garlicky tomatoes, which are loaded with umami: http://www.chow.com/recipes/13591 ).
nothing in the supermarket even comes close to what i know and love. i guess i just gotta wait till summer, like they did in the old days!
I don't like bacon with citrus (perhaps a personal thing). I found it ok with other sour tasting components (like vinegar, or pickles), but I don't like it with orange, lemon or most citrus.
Pork belly or other pork, however, goes very well with citrus. Perhaps it is the combination of smoky and citrus taste that I don't like.
re: kobetobiko
gotta admit I don't recall ever trying bacon with citrus.
re: Bat Guano
I bet you have had spinach salad with mandarin oranges and bacon with hot bacon dressing.
re: Sal Vanilla
a *beautiful* combination!!
re: Bat Guano
no bacon for breakfast with your oj?
re: Bat Guano
you finish the oj before the bacon? heresy! bacon. gets. crunched. first. thing.
re: alkapal
Well, I start with the OJ while the bacon's cooking... just works out that way. Sorry.
re: Bat Guano
ok, just checking! ;-).
da na na na na na na naaah...BACON COP!
I had some bacon ice cream at Moto in Chicago once. Great meal overall, but I was not a fan of the bacon ice cream. The flavour was ok, but the cold bacon was a bit fatty, and the frozen bacon fat was a bit much by way of texture. I prefer warm bacon fat I think. There is something about biting into cold fat. It's the same reason I don't eat hunks of butter. (although goodness knows I eat the equivalent of hunks of butter all the time!)
re: danhole
Didn't someone try to make that on Top Chef? Marcel perhaps? I remember it did not go over well at all.
I am not a beer fan, but I always found that bacon-flavored beer (the name escapes me at the moment) a bit odd as well.
re: queencru
Bacon beer doesn't sound very good, but I had a Bloody Mary at a brunch that was made with bacon infused vodka, bacon salt on the rim, and a stick of bacon in it. That was good! It was called a Squealin' Mary.
re: danhole
Dunno if I'd care for the cocktail, but I LOVE the name!
re: queencru
Do you mean rauchbier?(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smoked_beer)
I've only had one once. It tasted like bacon. But as it was Bell's 5000 batch I assumed it was just the brewer being a mad genius again.
re: frittering_away
I can't stand rauchbier because all i can think is hot dogs when I drink it!
re: danhole
In Los Angeles, the mad-genius owner of the ice cream parlor Scoops often makes bacon ice cream on weekends, and it sells out within minutes. I'm not sure what he does to temper the chilled-lard aspect - the almond-cookie ice cream at the Chinatown Ice Cream Factory in New York is so filled with lumps that I've taken to calling it Lard Chip - but it is very, very good. Because what is ice cream but frozen sauce?
re: condiment
Ya know what icecream would be good with bacon? Pecan Praline! Am I wrong?
peppermints and bacon icecream - I might balk at. Might. OK I wouldn't. Even in anonymous webworld I cannot lie about bacon.
re: Sal Vanilla
i was thinking about the bacon/ice cream flavor issue last night. there are a zillion specialty flavors & combos out there, and i won't even go near the crazy Ben & Jerry's flavors & the like, but i did consider some of the more common seasonal & regional possibilities...
vanilla, chocolate, vanilla fudge, dulce de leche, rocky road, chocolate marshmallow, cookie dough, butter pecan/butter crunch, rum raisin, cherry vanilla, pralines & cream/pecan praline, peanut butter, peanut butter fudge, pistachio, chocolate almond, maple walnut [my theoretical favorite], heath bar crunch, cherries jubilee, coconut, banana nut, white chocolate
doesn't work:
cookies & cream, coffee, mocha chip, mint chip, strawberry, raspberry cheesecake, egg nog, any fruit sorbet, sherbet
might work:
apple pie, pumpkin, plain cheesecake, peaches & cream
ok, so i think i'm obsessed.
re: danhole
Re: bacon flavored crackers. . .I find these often at the local discount grocery/99 cent type stores. My husband looooves them, so I pick them up fairly frequently.
re: Hunicsz
I wish I could find those bacon crackers! Those were so good!
re: moh
I can definitely see how the cold will make bacon fat not appetizing -- not a fan of munching on cold chewy bits of fat. I did have a great dessert in Arizona a few years ago (before the whole bacon brittle thing became so popular) where it was bacon brittle served with vanilla ice cream. I didn't like the bacon brittle on its own but was wonderful when combined with the ice cream.
And to answer the OP's question, I think there are a few things that bacon doesn't go well with. I definitely agree with the citrus. Basically I think bacon doesn't go well in anything that's supposed to be "refreshing" like fruit sorbet, gazpacho and watermelon.
re: Miss Needle
that bacon brittle with ice cream sounds way too good! in fact, when i saw this thread, the first sweet/dessert application that came to mind was crumbled lacquered bacon as an ice cream topping...but i don't think it would work with all flavors. most, but not all.
re: goodhealthgourmet
Broadbents produces an apple wood smoked bacon dusted with cinnamon. i may have to give bacon brittle a whirl with that.
re: Phoo_d
Yeah, you're right; maybe just a LITTLE bit of bacon in that one... then again I don't really like eggnog anyway, so maybe that's the problem.
re: Phoo_d
I've only had that pairing once, in a quiche. I couldn't get far enough past the eggnog flavor in my quiche to analyze the interplay of the eggnog with the bacon.
re: CDouglas

Finally - someone who gets it!
"There are few things in life that aren't improved by the addition of either bacon or chocolate. But seldom both."
I believe that is an Oscar Wilde.
And now we learn that bacon is health food. http://www.healthbolt.net/2007/11/15/...
re: Davwud
No, we have not. As usual someone takes a complex subject and practices "buffet" science; they take what they like and ignore the rest.
Bacon is far more complex than just nitrates and nitrites. For one thing, it's smoked, and that was likely the first thing in foods associated with cancer.
People that grab onto high protein/fat and low carbohydrate diets rarely follow the actual diets, which includes little or no carbohydrates. If you think this news is what you're looking for, there goes toast, sugars, sodas, cut way back on fruits, etc., etc., etc.
Given genetics, genetic expression, and background history these diets vary widely in how individuals react to them. To "assume" you'll be one of the lucky ones, well, you might be right, then again, maybe not.
The experiment was done with rats. This is common in scientific methodology, but it's only conjecture to assume it translates to human. I haven't read the actual study, but to rely on an article that is woefully lacking details is hardly "scientific".
The list of shortcomings in the article, and possibly the study, goes on and on.
So we can eat all we want, but this article does nothing to lend credence to the idea of bacon as "health food".
re: Richard 16
Richard, first I completely agree with what you have to say about "buffet" science -- it's very dangerous and happens far too often I'm afraid. Also, your statement about genetics and gene expression have a great stake in how foods are processed within our body (consider Inuit tribes who live, or used to, on an absurdly high fat diet and live "well"; mostly due to genetic influences); another wonderful example of this is Alzheimer's -- a disease where Aluminum has been implicated via science and buffet science, but has been off the board, so to speak, for years as a major concern -- again, genetics plays a massive role here.
I disagree, however, on your criticism of the use of rats as an adequate proxy for human reactions to certain compounds -- Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) -- to be more specific. PAHs are the compounds blamed for the carcinogenic (although interesting research has been done showing that in many people most of the PAH intake is actually from raw food, grains and vegetables) in preseved, smoked and grilled meat products. This clear link was most likely demonstrated (and good research is still carried out via this method) using mice or other rodents as experimental tools. It's been deemed by the scientific community that they are as adequate a substitution to humans as ethically permissible.
Now, to discount this particular article (of which the paraphrased version -- aka the buffet science -- is horribly expressed) on the basis of the authors using rats is, not well thought through, in my opinion. One could almost say that the research of the carcinogenic properties of PAHs is sound and that this study is not, while both use similar methods (that of testing rodents for carcinogenic properties), would indeed be practicing buffet science.
Now, if you have compelling scientific evidence that mice and rodents are not adequate in their use, please let me, and the scientific community know as a whole! But I would avoid judging the veracity of a study based upon their methods simply because you don't seem to enjoy the resulting implications.
re: Davwud
An interesting quote, and one that pops up in many places on the Web (usually without the "but seldom both" tagline), but it is most definitely not from Oscar Wilde.
re: Kajikit
I love bacon in fish stews and chowders, and I think wrapping a small ahi steak with bacon and grilling it in the manner of filet mignon might be very nice.
re: Kajikit
I disagree w/this one too. Besides the fish stews, I love a good bacon-wrapped monkfish... or bacon wrapped scallop...
re: Kajikit
I make a scallop dish that has bacon in it and it's heavenly.
re: FoodChic
Do you have a recipe? I have been craving scallops and, of course, I am always open to adding bacon.
re: lynnlato
Rumaki is a classic scallop/bacon combination. We'd never have gotten through the '70s without it!
Just wrap each scallop in bacon (along with slice of water chestnut if you like), stick a toothpick through to hold it in place, and broil 'til the bacon is done. If the scallops are small, parcook the bacon first so they scallops don't have to cook too long.
Simple, and still delicious after all these years.
re: lynnlato
wow, you scared me!
You are one "O" away from Rachel Rae speak. Perish the thought.
re: BobB
Old post, but as a matter of record, scallops wrapped with Bacon is not Rumaki. It is scallops wrapped in bacon. Rumaki is chicken livers and water chestnuts wrapped in bacon and marinated in shoyu and ginger. Invented by Trader Vic's post wwII as part of their pseudo-polynesian cuisine, along with pu-pu platters. Scallops wrapped in bacon is a more recent invention and is never presented as Rumaki in places I've had it.
re: applehome
isn't that scallop preparation "angels on horseback"? oops, no, that is oysters. scallops is "devils on horseback"....
re: Kajikit
Totally agree. Fish and Bacon is simply wrong. Possibly a French concoction devised to offend us Italians. Like their vomitous fish and cheese combination. Wrong, wrong, oh so deeply wrong
re: Sal Vanilla
I second bacon and banana. It is like Homer Simpson and Posh Spice (or whatever she is called these days): they should not even be in the same room. On the other hand, bacon and strawberry seems more doable. I kind of like bacon and strawberry jam sandwiches, a lot.

Not much that bacon doesn't go with... I wish someone would make a glazed bacon wrapped doughnut...I'm tired of doing them myself.
Most important of all, bacon does not go with a healthy circulatory system or a healthy heart. An occasional nibble is not going to hurt anyone, but frequent consumption of this cholesterol-laden, sodium-laden meat product is going to take a heavy toll on your health and well-being.

Moderation might not be a bad thing...overall...
re: Richard 16
I don't think anyone suggested that moderation about bacon or anything else was a bad idea. This is just a fun thread that speculates about how bacon makes pretty nearly everything taste better. In fact, some people mentioned foods they thought it was terrible with. It doesn't mean that we're all eating bacon with everything that goes into our mouths.
Life is always a balancing act, don't you think?
re: chicgail
Hence the line about moderation...
re: Richard 16
And I've been called sanctimonious...
Ted and Richard: Who says we are NOT moderate eaters? I rarely eat bacon, but I enjoy good bacon. Perhaps you eat more ice cream or salt-laden chips than some of us? Perhaps you are preaching to the choir? Perhaps we are expressing our evil thoughts of gobbling all the bacon we can find but I do try and control my urges (liberally paraphrased as Jimmy Carter once said).
re: Scargod
<<Ted and Richard: Who says we are NOT moderate eaters?>>
Certainly not me. I don't know any of you. If you read the applicable posts you might see that my comments were about moderation. I can't speak for Ted.
As I have said, for my tastes bacon is way overused. Nothing is intrinsically "wrong" with the taste. But it has a very strong taste (and smell) that when used as a flavoring tends to - with most chefs - overpower more subtle base ingredients. And most base ingredients are more subtle.
I love nattto, but to have it with maguro is a waste of good bluefin.
I love scallops, but for me bacon just takes it in the wrong direction. Perhaps if I wanted a bacon dish with some scallop accent, maybe. But unless a *very* judicious hand is used for me that would be a waste of good scallops.
Physiologically speaking bacon, in moderation, is fine but it is very fatty and salty. The usual additives are not good for us, but if the rest of the diet is good we can, IMO, handle some of the bad-for-us stuff.
re: Ted in Central NJ

re: aynrandgirl
re: hard candy, someone has actually produced bacon-flavored lollipops...
And so it must be a very personal taste.
I would not be able to eat much of the pairings and combinations some suggest with bacon. Maybe I just don't like bacon all that much, and prefer it as is. Im sure I'll get booed but it's a free country right?
I don't care for it anywhere near tomato sauce - with fresh tomatoes abosolutely-perfection! So with that I might as well add, pizza, I can't tolerate bacon anywhere near my pizza.
Totally contrary to the theory of this thread, but, the blog "A Hamburger Today" had a post recently of a burger where the patties are placed between - wait for it - two grilled bacon/cheese sandwiches. Yes, that's a grilled cheese sandwich with bacon on the bottom, burger patty, toppings as desired (can't say as needed; at this point, "need" is an irrelevant concept), and a second grilled bacon/cheese sandwich on top. Comes complete with cardiologist recommendations.
re: KevinB
It does sound good though.
And another one from an article in the Globe and Mail (a Canadian newspaper) on the new popularity of cocktails:
But no one is taking it to the extreme like Canadian-born "molecular mixologist" Jamie Boudreau, who now shakes in Seattle: He offers up bacon-infused bourbon and chocolate cocktails.
re: mexivilla
bacon doesnt go well with chocolate pie
re: grabtrees
Really. Since Vosages came out with their bacon-laced chocolate bar, I would rethink that.
re: chicgail
And actually, I don't know if Gramercy Tavern still has it, but they had a phenomenal chocolate/bacon tart. Ok, so it's not chocolate pie, but after that experience I'd bet that a chocolate pie and bacon combo would be just fine by me.
re: stay_classy
The Dessert Truck here in NYC has a chocolate bread pudding, and on top you can get either vanilla or bacon creme anglais. I bet you can guess which one I chose... a brilliant concoction.
re: chicgail
I tried a bacon chocolate bar (different brand) recently. I was quite excited about it because it seemed like the perfect combination of the world's most perfect foods. It was rather disappointing. The two things really didn't go together well.
re: Scargod
OK, you got me on that one. I just tried the Imagine Whirled Peace, and you're right, it's pretty much perfect the way it is.

bacon and bourbon - the smokiness factor
re: danhole
Oh no, I DID read it, don't worry. :) That's too much savoury on the vodka part for me- the only non-fruit vodka infusion that I like is black pepper vodka (though I do love Bloody Marys). I think it comes from my Slavic grandmother, who was the same way with all her homemade vodka infusions (you know how sometimes we can't eat tings certain ways because that's the way we did it growing up)?.
Glad you found such a fun cocktail, though!
re: sfumato
How cool was your grandmother to have made homemade vodka infusions--WOW! :)
re: kattyeyes
Awww thanks! She was one hell of a cook. Amazing in the kitchen.
She would take nips straight out of the bottles, too. When she got older, we used to find a little lipstick around the edges of the bottle necks. ;)
I reread my post and realized one thing didn't make sense- I meant to say, "you know how sometimes we can't eat things certain ways because that's NOT the way we did it growing up?" She never liked savoury vodkas, so I grew up thinking that fruit-based was the only way to do it. :)
re: sfumato
It was pretty subtle. You could taste it, but it was a slight flavor. Of course, I myself, am partial to orange flavored vodka ;-)
About the one thing I've tried where bacon didn't really work (granted, I haven't tried a lot) was as an addition to my chili recipe. The flavor got drowned out and it doesn't hold up too well in the texture department. Maybe it would have worked better if I made it crispier and made it a last minute addition (or a topping) but I'll probably not try it again anytime soon.
re: Vexorg
Try using some bacon drippings to brown you meat in. Not exactly bacon but almost.
re: Davwud
Yeah, you beat me to it, Davwud; for my 'competition' chili, I also brown the onions (and some other stuff....) separately in bacon grease. You still get most of the benefits of bacon.
I never actually put pieces of bacon in my chili, but on the analogy of beans, where you put the bacon in them in big hunks, it could work; sure, they don't stay crisp, but they still taste pretty darn good, when you run across them.
re: Vexorg
I can't disagree more! Yes, you did it wrong. Cook the bacon rather crisp but not rock hard. Chop it up into 1/8 to 3/16" chunks. No bigger! Mix with chili at some point later on so they can soften a bit. It is like little flavor bursts when you hit one!
Bat Guano, and other bacon lovers, you may want to try these bar cookies inspired by a thread here on CH:

I thought he meant the baconed mayonnaise but he could have meant both manufacturers.
This may seem like nothing to people who like/want bacon with everything, but Jimmy Dean's products, like the sausage and egg sandwich, are some of the most artery clogging products out there. I wonder if they come with bacon and sausage?

Okay, first of all I have not tasted the baconnaise, but I bought some for a friend who said it is a bit too smoky. But it is not a dipping sauce! What the hell was Jon thinking dipping a corn dog into it? You dip corn dogs into mustard, fool! You should use baconnaise on a turkey sandwich with a good bread.

alka & danhole, i love you guys, but you're breakin' my heart! i'm a huge Jon Stewart fan...been following him since his original late-night show 15 years ago.
but staying on topic here, i can sort of understand why he tried it with the corn dog - the smokiness of baconnaise could taste pretty darn good with that corn batter. after all, bacon grease + cornbread is a beautiful thing! but yeah, mayo with a hot dog is pretty nasty.
re: goodhealthgourmet
I get the bacon with a corn dog - maybe baconmustard! but mayo? You are right GHG, mayo is not the thing to try here! Hey Jon's okay, in small doses, like once a month or so, if I'm bored.

Bacon mustard! Does such a thing exist? If not, this is a stroke of genius! Somebody needs to get on this right away!

re: goodhealthgourmet
I've eaten hot dogs with just about everything on them at one time or another: sauerkraut, onions, hot peppers, pickle spear (in Chicago, don't really get it), ketchup (not in Chicago, don't get that either), hot, brown, and regular mustard, relish, cheese, baked beans, and chili. And, to stay on topic, a grilled dog with limp bacon wrapped around it and tossed on the grill again is fantastic. But mayo? On a hot dog? Not in this -or any other - lifetime!
re: KevinB
well, in the south where mayo is king, we'd eat mayo and ketchup on a dog, and some would add yellow mustard, and relish.
this was the '70s. today, more northern ways have infiltrated.
no one is "right" -- it is a matter of taste and regional preferences. unless you're kosher, then mayo cannot be "right."
re: alkapal
mayo isn't dairy... no reason eating it w/ meat wouldn't be kosher
re: alkapal
So right. Mustard is the standard, to me, but they make Dijonaise (or mustard/mayo combo), now, don't they? I've often seen mustard AND mayo on a dog or burger in North Texas. Usually onions and sometimes relish or pickled jalapenos, too
re: Scargod
Mustard and mayo is fine on a hot dog (with relish!), but not a corn dog. And if I wanted bacon with my corn dog, I would try to figure out how to get it inside the breading. Now that would be a tasty treat.
re: hangrygirl
I beg to differ- I have seen bacon fried rice on lots of chinese menus.
I stand firm on bacon and black licorice.

In a bacon dish, sure. The strong taste and odor of bacon would overwhelm most (although, I suppose, not all) fish and seafood and almost any other ingredient in sushi. Unless, of course, you want bacon sushi...
I'm not sure what all the brou-ha-ha is over bacon. Without any data to support or refute IMO it's as much a defensive reaction to non-bacon eaters as it is to the flavor of bacon - a stance many of you will deny but still makes sense to me.

re: applehome
Yeah, I grew up eating it made with salt pork, too; but since moving to an area where it's hard to find good ol' salt pork, I made clam chowder with bacon a couple of times, and it was pretty darn good. Not traditional, but for me the bacon goes well with the onions. And I don't get really good clams here anyway, so it doesn't matter as much that the bacon steps on the clam flavor.
re: chicgail
bacon, along with the cheeseburger were amongst my first hints that religion cannot have it right. what deity would want to deny anyone such delights?
We devised a theory a couple summers ago, while at scout camp: There are two kinds of food in this world - ones that go with bacon, and ones that go with chocolate. Some will go with both. After reading many of the replies on this thread, it seems this theory has yet to be disproved.
i was telling an friend about this thread - he said "sex doesn't go w/ bacon"
I said "you're not doing it right"
OK Bat Guano- you asked for it -so here goes:
Bacon with MAPLE SYRUP.... YUUUUUCHHH!!
re: Doctormhl1
Wha??? Bacon is cured in maple syrup. They go hand in hand.
re: Doctormhl1
are you kidding me? Of course bacon goes with maple syrup! The entire basis of the Quebecois culture relies on this perfect pairing! They even use bacon to process maple syrup...
i would be very sad without this combination...
re: Doctormhl1
Actually I sort of agree - not fond of that combo myself - but as we have seen, there are a number of people who disagree.
re: Bat Guano
Wow! From all of the things that bacon's paired with, it's funny to hear you say that's the combo you're not fond of. Have you had bacon with pancakes and maple syrup? Wonderful combination!
So, like I said in another post above, what do you think of bacon and watermelon?
re: Miss Needle
Hey Miss Needle! good to "see" you!
re: bacon and watermelon, I eat a lot of brunches where there is fruit served as part of the plate, and I actually find a nice piece of fruit refreshing right after a hunk of bacon. So I guess i kind of like the combo.
I also put some thought to the gazpacho question. When we make gazpacho, we often put serrano (or iberico) ham on top as a garnish with a boiled egg. The saltiness is a nice contrast to the refreshing vegetables. I'm pretty sure it would be not much of stretch to go to bacon.
But I could see how those two sets of combos might not appeal to everyone.
re: moh
Always a pleasure to "run" into you, Moh! : )
The gazpacho/ham combo sounds interesting. I haven't tried it but it does sound good. I think the ham would go pretty well with the gazpacho as it's not too strong -- kind of reminiscent of proscuitto and melon (not so sure about the bacon though).
Oh, if you haven't tried it yet, you should try bacon with kimchi. Inspired by a brussel sprouts dish I've had at Momofuku in NYC, I roasted some brussel sprouts and dressed it in a kimchi puree sauteed with bacon. Yum!
re: Miss Needle
The brussel sprout dish sounds great! At first I was taken aback by the kimchi bacon combo, but now that I thinks about it, i love kimchi with Korean grilled marinated pork belly, so how far is the jump to bacon? Kimchi and pork products are a natural combination.
re: Miss Needle
Oh, baby! Coming home during frosty February, to find Mom cooking bacon, pork sausages, and pancakes, all served swimming in maple syrup. Beyond good...
re: FrankDrakman
pork and maple have a great affinity!
re: Miss Needle
Well, I probably did like the bacon-maple combo at one time, but it's been done to death, and I just got tired of it, I think. I don't actively dislike it, but I won't go out of my way for it, either.
Never tried bacon and watermelon, either; it actually doesn't sound all that good, but you just never know until you try, do you?
re: Bat Guano
Yes. Sometimes the best combos are things where one would think, "Is the chef on crack?" I believe in Top Chef, Richard Blais won with a dish made with fish, white chocolate and wasabi.
re: Doctormhl1
That sounds interesting. I love horseradish on brisket, its sharpness cuts the fattiness well. Could work the same with slab bacon or pork belly. I'll have to try that, thanks!
re: Doctormhl1
See, it's not so easy, is it? I've never tried bacon with horseradish, but I bet it wouldn't be too bad. I may give it a shot one of these days.
re: Doctormhl1
bacon and salmon caviar
bacon and raspberry puree
bacon and lychees
re: cornflower55
bacon works well with sweet flavors, so i could see it working with lychee or raspberry puree in the right context
re: Doctormhl1
crunchy- clearly.
i had "pecaned bacon" in Nola - not a huge leap to peanut butter
re: Doctormhl1
A classic combo. Try this stuff.

It is such a fantastic time to be a geek. When you think about it, a not insignificant portion of our popular culture has come to embrace geekdom in many forms. And while some in my tribe decry this as the homogenization and dilution of what they snobbishly declare "true" geekdom, I, as a pudgy, pale, balding, aging, once bully-bait bull geek, am quite pleased with how things have turned out.

Oaklawn/Cedar Springs Halloween Block Party Street Kirtan w/ Giriraj Swami
Every year during this time of the year we have a wonderful kirtan with thousands of folks attending the Oaklawn Halloween Block Party. The event has more than 100,000 attendees and can be quite PG-13 but everyone loves the chanting. In fact many costumed partiers chant along with us for several hours throughout the night.

TEXAS FAITH 133: Falling into Sin
Dallas Morning News,
Each week we will post a question to a panel of about two dozen clergy, laity and theologians, all of whom are based in Texas or are from Texas. They will chime in with their responses to the question of the week. And you, readers, will be able to respond to their answers through the comment box.
Most of us agree on the difference between right and wrong. It is wrong to steal; it is wrong to commit adultery; it is wrong to kill.
The parameters of right and wrong are widely shared in most civil societies. But we often find ourselves, in the practice of everyday life, justifying little wrongs with the balance that we do greater good in some other area. And some of us, over time, begin to justify greater and greater wrongs as we accustom ourselves to lives of what we might call sin.
Think about how this happens in an individual. Is this the spiritual battle we are meant to fight, the push back against the slide into doing wrong? What draws the soul or mind toward sin, and what is the defense against it? - Dallas Morning News
NITYANANDA CHANDRA DAS, minister of ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness), Dallas
The third chapter of the Bhagavad Gita As It Is verses 37-43 concisely address this issue. That the soul is compelled by lust, the desire to enjoy the temporary, because it false identifies the self with the temporary. "As fire is covered by smoke, as a mirror is covered by dust, or as the embryo is covered by the womb, the living entity is similarly covered by different degrees of this lust. Thus the wise living entity's pure consciousness becomes covered by his eternal enemy in the form of lust, which is never satisfied and which burns like fire. The senses, the mind and the intelligence are the sitting places of this lust. Through them lust covers the real knowledge of the living entity and bewilders him. Therefore in the very beginning curb this great symbol of sin [lust] by regulating the senses, and slay this destroyer of knowledge and self-realization. The working senses are superior to dull matter; mind is higher than the senses; intelligence is still higher than the mind; and he [the soul] is even higher than the intelligence. Thus knowing oneself to be transcendental to the material senses, mind and intelligence, one should steady the mind by deliberate spiritual intelligence [Kṛṣṇa consciousness] and thus - by spiritual strength - conquer this insatiable enemy known as lust."

TEXAS FAITH 132: Is religion to blame for the conflicts around the world?
Dallas Morning News,
Each week we will post a question to a panel of about two dozen clergy, laity and theologians, all of whom are based in Texas or are from Texas. They will chime in with their responses to the question of the week. And you, readers, will be able to respond to their answers through the comment box.
The military crisis in Iraq is typically described in religious terms – a millennia-old conflict between Sunni and Shia. No doubt the sectarian divide has fueled tensions and defined the war. It has given critics ammunition to argue against sending more troops into a religious civil war. There is an emerging view that we should just stay out and let the parties fight it out themselves, as they have done for hundreds of years.
For some, it's hard not to blame religion. Religion is often in the frame of modern conflicts. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict predated the creation of the modern state of Israel. The civil war in Ireland pitted Catholics against Protestants. Religious tensions in Nigeria divide the country between the Muslim north and the Christian south. Hindus and Muslims oppose each other in South Asia. The conflicts in Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia and Kosovo involve Orthodox, Catholic and Muslim followers.
Religion seems to be connected with violence virtually everywhere. Critics of religion are quick to put the blame on religion. Advocates of faith counter with religion's record as a force for peace. One 18th century writer said we have just enough religion to make us hate, but not enough to make us love one another.
As people of faith, how to we talk with those who say religion is to blame? How do we respond when someone asks if religion has succeeded in any of its efforts to unite mankind?
When a critic points to conflicts in Iraq, across the Middle East, Asia, Africa and Europe and says religion is to blame – how do we respond?
NITYANANDA CHANDRA DAS, minister of ISKCON (International Society for Krishna Consciousness), Dallas
Due to a lack of spiritual intelligence, ignorant persons misidentify the eternal self with the temporary body and mind. Such illusion does not only include ideas such as, 'I am White', 'I am Black', 'I am American', 'I am Democrat,' but also the illusion also includes ideas of, 'I am Hindu', 'I am Christian', 'I am Muslim.'
For the person who has received spiritual training understands that, 'I am not this body but rather I am an eternal soul.' Therefore a spiritually wise soul does not discriminate against others based on temporary bodily designations but rather sees the soul proper.
"He who sees systematically everything in relation to the Supreme Lord, who sees all living entities as His parts and parcels, and who sees the Supreme Lord within everything never hates anything or any being.
One who always sees all living entities as spiritual sparks, in quality one with the Lord, becomes a true knower of things. What, then, can be illusion or anxiety for him?" - Śrī Īśopaniṣad 6-7

Our Cancún Trip–Part 2 Beach, Harinam and Book Distribution
This guy was the smaller one. Both were waiting near the bus stop.
In front of Plaza la Isla shopping center we got to meet this friendly spider monkey. He was very friendly and climbed on our heads and our hands. When some more kids showed up and started petting him he got a little nervous and bit Visakha finger. He also doesn't like cameras so he doesn't look happy picture as well. Here you can see him give an upset squeak to the camera.
It tickled. As a Father's Day present Krishna Mangala had me sit in one of these.
We distributed a book to the guy running it.
After our little exploration we went to Gopal's Vegetarian restaurant for some prasadam, harinam kirtan, and spiritual book distribution.
The airport was like a shopping mall trying to confiscate the last of your money.
The plane ride was wonderful. I was originally supposed to sit next to this nice older couple but my seat was changed to sit next to these two young sisters from Austin. One was 13 and the other was 15. The older one started to ask me about my attire. She then began to explain to me that she is doing a study on the nature of happiness. From that point on we had a wonderful discussion about happiness, the soul, reincarnation, devotional service and the three modes of nature. She told me that she is generally quite afraid of flying but did not think about during this flight because of the interesting discussion. She was very happy to receive a copy of the Bhagavad Gita in Spanish. It is always nice to bring some BBT books with you where ever you go. This what she wrote me on Facebook
Thank you. It was a pleasure to meet you as well. I enjoyed learning about the ancient Indian culture and I have different views of the world now. Thank you so much!to see the pics that you missed click here.

Patriotism, pride stitched into recreated 'Betsy Ross' flag
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
Mikia Muhammad, DLA Troop Support
Five seamstresses from Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support's clothing and textiles supply chain have completed a "Betsy Ross" flag, modeled on the original created during the American Revolution.
Thirteen hand-embroidered stars in a field of blue, next to 13 red and white stripes are symbolic of America's first flag and Philadelphia's role in the new nation's freedom and democracy, Defense Logistics Agency Historian Dr. Harold E. Raugh Jr. said.
Raugh said it was patriotism and pride in Ross' reported role in making this flag that prompted DLA Director Navy Vice Adm. Mark Harnitchek to request DLA Troop Support's "flag ladies" recreate the national symbol.
"We are very pleased and honored by the outstanding support rendered by DLA Troop Support and especially by the renowned flag ladies in producing the Betsy Ross flag, this great symbol of American democracy and of Philadelphia," Raugh said.
The flag measures approximately 3 feet by 6 feet, said Lisa Vivino, who until recently was the branch chief responsible for the flag room. Within a month's time, Ngoc Phung Thi Le, Nancy Chhim, Linda Farrell and Linh Ho cut, hand embroidered, machine stitched, and ironed the flag, while Hue Nguyen supervised the process. They completed it June 19.
Recreating this flag was a unique request for the flag room, which does not typically make American flags, Vivino said. DLA typically orders and depot-stocks large quantities of the current version of the American flag for its military and federal customers.
"The flag room has never done anything like this before," Vivino said. "We've done all types of battalion and brigade flags, … but we've never been in a situation where we actually had to cut strips of fabric and sew them together to create the stripes."
The seamstresses designed the recreated flag based on available information online and their own expertise, Vivino said.
According to the Historic Philadelphia website, Ross was asked by George Washington and others to make what became the first American flag.
The flag will be framed and displayed at DLA Headquarters in a place of significance and honor, Raugh said.

Pardon my French, but it's a f*cking crime that Stacey Pullen is playing at APT. No offense to the APT folks, but the venue is too small and not dancefloor friendly enough for the jams that the great Detroit techno DJ will be laying down. He is by far my favorite of all the Detroit DJsoffering smooth, funky, interesting sets with unbelievable flow and musical tension. I'll settle for standing in the corner and wiggling my ass, anyway.
Thursday @ 10, APT, 419 W 13th, 212.414.4245
Go to a party, see a little art, hear some music, and feel good about yourself because you're helping a cause. That's the m.o. behind the environmental awareness event RENEWABLE BROOKLYNan all-day fest being held in Prospect Park, with live performances by mash-up masters 2 Many DJs and Handsome Boy Modeling School (Dan the Automator and Prince Paul, word). Plus, there'll be performances by electro godfather Arthur Baker and Brit Richard Fearless, as well as nouveau-wavers Soviet, dance rockers Out Hud, Radio 4, and Head Automatica. Eye candy is supplied by Future Ec(h)os and Sustain (in the Tennis House), with projections by Dark.Light.
Saturday @ 3, Prospect Park. Go to renewablebrooklyn.com for more information.
Those aching for a little nostalgia have two options, both of them new parties fronted by old-timers. SHIFT, with DJs DB and Romeo, hits the Big Six every month with a range of music on the decks. DB says he'll play everything from electro and classic hip-hop to dancehall and funk. Friday @ 10, Big Six, 197 Bowery, 212.219.9955. That other New York old-skooler Tony Fletcher is doing a Madchester-themed party called STEP ON. Baggy pants are encouraged so you can dance properly to Britpop and Hacienda classics.

Why JoJo Signing To Atlantic Records Is A Good Move
Reason #2: JoJo was wasting a lot of creative energy.
Normally, the average pop artist spends a few months—maybe a year tops— recording an album. If you spend time recording too many songs for a project, you start to spread yourself thin. Or, worse, you lose focus and start recording songs that don't fit within the context of your album. So can you imagine what JoJo has gone through for the last seven years? It sounds like she's recorded hundreds of songs and, most likely, she's burned through a lot of creative energy in the process. It's time for a fresh start.

Please accept my humble obesciances.I have gone through the article and i wish to publish this article in BTG ( Back to Godhead) magazine. Please give me permission to do so . Many people will benefit from it.
Suresh Mirpuri

Television has become an integral part of every modern house. It is thought by most modern people to be an indispensable necessity that offers them a much-needed break from the tension & boredom of modern mechanistic life-style. Although a few whispers are often heard here & there about the detrimental affects of TV., they are generally drowned out by the overwhelming uproar of those wanting the enjoyment offered by television.
Television is not run by social workers interested in the benefit of the audience. TV is run by businessmen who are ready to do anything and everything to maximize their profits. Although people eagerly savor the various programs on television, little do they know the deadly effect it is having on their minds. Almost without exception TV programs shows levels of opulence & enjoyment that are unattainable for common people. Such programs coupled with the alluring advertisements of various luxury products that are periodically aired between all programs, ensures that the audience's hearts become filled with uncontrollable and most often insatiable desires for wealth and pleasure. This inevitably results in people behaving like programmed robots working hard to try to earn money – by hook or by crook – to enjoy life the way it is portrayed on TV. It is important to understand the TV doesn't offer harmless innocent entertainment. It also determines the values and goals of people.
Television is becoming the guru of modern man; it teaches him how to dress, how to walk, how to talk, how to eat. However TV is a treacherous guru. Statistics shows that within two years of introduction and promotion of TV in a third world country, the crime rates increased 10 times within just 2 years. An average American child, even before he reaches 10 years of age, sees thousands of murder, rapes and other crime on television. After exposing their children to such ghastly violence, isn't it ironic that American parents feel aghast when school children armed with guns shoot their teachers and co-students? Many intelligent Americans including eminent film stars, social activists and national leaders have joined hands in forming a "no TV" campaign group. They and their children have minimized TV viewing to the barest minimum necessary. Their concern is of course mostly material. Excessive TV viewing inhibits creativity, creates lethargy and of course wastes time.
But from the point of India, which has the most glorious cultural and spiritual heritage in the world, the effects of TV are far more insidious. What 700 years of Mogul rule could not accomplish, what 200 years of British rule could not do, television has done in just a few decades. Television has attacked and damaged severely the very foundation of Vedic culture. In the past, everyone in India would gather every evening as a family in a local temple or under a nearby banyan tree to sing bhajans, kirtans and hear the glorious stories of Lord Rama and Krishna and the timeless message of the Bhagavad-gita – of the soul and its loving relationship with God. Their minds and heart saturated with these divine vibrations, people would sleep happily and wake up enthusiastically and joyfully advance towards the ultimate goal of life – to return back to the kingdom of God. Unfortunately nowadays instead of coming together to glorify God, people come together in front of the modern deity – TV. There they sit together united in a stupor of illusion, burning with passion and desire, dissatisfied and frustrated, imagining happiness in the vicarious inane pleasures offered by the idiot box.
Indians are meant to lead the world through the spiritual wisdom and culture Srila Prabhupada would lament that Indians are sitting on jewels but are begging for broken glass. Instead of being victimized by the bombardment of Western culture though TV, Indians have the opportunity to find the treasure of divine love and happiness that lies dormant within their own heart and share it with the whole world. The original television meaning 'vision from a distance' was when Sanjaya observed from the court in Hastinapura the events on the battlefield of Kurukshetra and narrated them to Dhritarashtra. Thus the message of the Bhagavad Gita is India's ancient TV program. Let us see, hear and understand the message coming from that original mystical television. Let us assimilate and disseminate the wisdom of the Gita to the whole world and become happy ourselves and offer the whole world the pathway to everlasting happiness.

It's a reality that millions of people, all over the world, watch television and movies today, both as a form of entertainment and education, including many devotees. Perhaps the best way to encourage people to watch less mundane programing, is to continue to create higher quality shows, which present Krishna Conscious philosophy, science, drama, and ideals through television and movie documentaries. This of course requires many millions of dollars, which perhaps is not available at this time. We can't expect great numbers of people to give up lower tastes and accept the higher taste of Krishna Consciousness mearly by philosophical chastisment alone.
India has become a modern society and a great world power. It is normal for people who have become rich to enjoy the fruits of their labor. Trying to push what will be viewed by many as old-fashioned ideals, makes us look like overly conservative fuddy-duddies, and out of touch with modern reality.
Krishna Consciousness must be perceived as the most attractive and the best source of happiness and enjoyment.
