Maui in the Midwest
United States
23 Jul 14
Mixology − the art of mixing drinks – is coming to this year's Salone Del Gusto and Terra Madre.
Dating back to the 1850s, mixology began in the western saloons of the United States, thanks to the father of all bartenders, Jerry Thomas. Today it still plays a starring role in American food and drink culture, with trade professionals constantly looking for ways to experiment and use different and diverse ingredients.
Earlier this year, Slow Food USA launched the Slow Food Speakeasy: Ark of Taste Cocktail Competition, inviting members, friends and followers from the US to propose drink recipes that reflect the values of Slow Food, used an Ark of Taste product and embodied their regional culture. The prize: to join the Slow Food USA delegates at Salone Del Gusto and Terra Madre!
Here we bring you the winning recipe: Maui in the Midwest by Devin Kidner which uses the Ark of Taste ingredient, pawpaw.
Ingredients • 60ml /2 ounces vodka • 30ml /1 ounce apple cider • 1 teaspoon raw, unfiltered honey • 3/4 cup seeded pawpaw flesh • 1/2 cup ice cubes
MethodCombine all of the ingredients in a blender and process until smooth. Pour into a chilled glass, garnish with two lemon balm leaves. Serve chilled and relax…
David will join four runners up from the competition.

I'll toss my hat in the ring. Not the most creative use of cast iron, but oh well.
Started off last Friday by grinding up 5 lbs of quality pork butt from Hirsch's meat market. Now the grinding plates aren't cast iron (they are cast steel), but you do have to treat them similar. Keep them rubbed down with oil or they will rust. Does that count for anything?
5lbs all ground up, spices and cheese mixed in and ready to sit overnight in the fridge.
Stuffed them the next day into 32mm hog casings. And then they sat in the fridge. When I finally got around to cooking them, I got my Egg up to 400F and plopped down a Cast Iron skillet filled with 232 oz of sauerkraut, some yellow onions, a bit of beer, butter, dry mustard, garlic powder, paprika, red pepper and some black pepper. I let that get warm for about 15 minutes before throwing in my cheddarwurst.
I cooked the wurst for 15 minutes, flipped and another 15 minutes and then put it directly on the grill.
Let that cook about another 10 minutes or so (IT temp was 150) and then pulled it.
Gotta show a sliced shot.
If you look real closely and squint your eyes, you can see a bit of smoke ring even. Anyway, not a very creative use of cast iron, but points for making my own wurst?

text: 'Iron Lady' Director Wants Government to Mandate Roles for Women Print article Send a Tip by Breitbart News 10 Dec 2012 post a comment The director of "The Iron Lady" has a pretty strict wish list for the British government. Phyllida Lloyd wants women to have juicier roles in plays, a plight exacerbated by the fact that the earliest plays were conducted with all-male casts. A little government engineering can fix that, of course. She told the BBC last week that she looks forward to the day when the European Union will legislate to insist that all theatre companies must employ 50 per cent women, so that directors have to allocate parts regardless of sex. Lloyd is doing her part to gender balance modern plays. Her new production of "Julius Caesar" features an all-woman cast led by Dame Harriet Walter. Can "Juliet and Juliet" be far behind?

Offroad Legends Review
Upon loading up Offroad Legends, we were expecting a Trials type experience, and this looked like the same insane jump and bump gameplay, only with monster trucks instead of motor bikes. Well it's not really like that at all, but forging its own path, this racer definitely has some unique things to offer, such as jumping lava in a hippie kombi van. One of the first things to get used to is that going full bolt will have disastrous effects. Your truck has a damage percentage meter, and…Watch The Video Review

Windows 7 Professional 64bit
Can you activate Home Premium with Professional code?
So I'm really confused on this and have searched around but still have yet to find anything.
I am in the process of completing my first PC build (yay) and want to install Windows 7 Professional on it. The thing is, I already have Windows 7 Professional on my laptop, and I planned to transfer the license from the laptop to the desktop. The problem is, I cannot find my professional installation CD ANYWHERE. I looked all around and it just...isn't there. Both my dad and brother even said they never remembered seeing a professional CD anywhere (but I'm sure I had it...). Anyway, what I did find was a Windows 7 Home Premium UPGRADE CD.
So can I just use that home premium upgrade CD on the new PC, and then use the professional activation key? I'm a bit confused because I read that upgrade CDs must be used on vista/xp systems, but since my build is completely fresh, theres nothing on it.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

To be held on Saturday 06 and Sunday 07 April this new event at the Carp Society HQ – Lechlade's Horseshoe Lake - is a match which could be won or lost on the last cast as the outcome is decided not on weight or numbers of fish but on the largest fish of each of the three species defined (carp, tench and rudd) with the angler having the heaviest of each species being declared the winner.

The Match starts at 10.00am on Saturday 06 April and ends 16.00 on Sunday 07 April and competitors are permitted to use a maximum of two baited rods; competitors must bait and cast their own rods, and play/land their own fish. No assistance is allowed.
The entry fee is £100 and places are limited to 40 anglers. An online application form is available HERE with full rules HERE. For any further information call the Carp Society office on 01367 253959
Biggest Carp - £500 cash + Farriers Lake Annual Permit

So, let's get this straight. The anglers pay in £4,000, and the Carp Society pays out £1,000. Was this investment opportunity devised by the banking sector?lol Anyone entering that needs their head examined. Shame because it`s quite an interesting idea for a match.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I have one child in 8th and one in 6th at Ariton. I absolutely love this small school. The teachers work so hard for our students they truly love what they do. Our administration staff is very organized and so professional providing an excellent environment for our school. We are so blessed to have a principal who cares about our school, he is always working to improve our school he helps out with PTO functions always available for parent conferences very open door policy one time I had to go to school on a Saturday to pick up some chairs, he and his whole family were all by themselves cleaning up our campus after a Friday night football game, ( that is LOVE). He makes each student feel special I LOVE AHS!!!!
My son, Justin Bean, attended Ariton Elementary for a brief period of time and I am a 1986 graduate. We now live in Louisville, KY and Justin is a freshman in high school. The thing I regret for him that he doesn't have and I did, was the closeness that I shared with my classmates. I can look at my old year book and recreate memories about all of them. Unfortunately, my son can't do that with his class. Most of his classmates are new to him. Ariton Schools encouraged and nourished friendships and closeness.
February 2004: The level of education my 11th grade son (in the advanced program) and my 6th grade son are receiving is excellent. I have personal experience from the principal down and this is a school has extremely qualified teachers that love what they do, they are firm, fair, there is a tremendous amount of parental involvement. The educators at AHS know how to run the school in a professional manner. It would be nice if they had more sports (socceer, track, etc).
I was a student at AHS but I moved to mobile sometime in 2000 but I have two sisters who still go there! AHS is more of a everybody knows everybody type school because It is such a small town. The teachers are very nice and will do there best to help each student! I know because I have a learning diffrence and the special education teacher worked very hard to help me! I would say that yes AHS is a very nice school.

'Ultimate nerd chick' prompts C64 clone cancellation
A damning tweet from one Jeri Ellsworth, described by a Register reader as "the ultimate Commodore 64 nerd chick", has put the mockers on Project Bread Bin, one retro-tech fan's dream to build a cut-price Commodore 64-compatible computer in a keyboard case. Earlier this week, C64 fan Daniel Biehl called out to the crowd to …
Poor sod
I was critical of what he was aiming to do but his only real mistakes were in it not looking like a worthwhile project while asking for money without a coherent and demonstrably viable plan on how he would deliver. As any 'send us your money' scheme may be a scam that probably made it look more likely that it was than was not.
If he had been more involved with the DIY C64 and retro-computing communities he might have had a better idea of what projects would be supported, what he could achieve and how he could do it and maybe even have a viable project, along with people willing to help him with that.
His real crime; letting his enthusiasm get the better of him.
Re: Poor sod
He'd be competing with free C64 emulators too. Some of which are classy software! If users can run their old C64 games on existing small footprint laptops, it makes dealing with cables and a separate box redundant as a business plan...
Re: Poor sod
By launching an ambitious but uncosted computer he was emulating the 1980s home microcomputer business model a bit too closely.
Re: Poor sod
> without a coherent and demonstrably viable plan on how he would deliver.
Should have applied to ycombinator instead then ?
Re: Poor sod
When enthusiasm is a crime, there will be no humans left on the planet. So does that make your verdict now "innocent"?
The whole story is very unusual and off-center, and reactions are as interesting as the 'conflict'.
naive, not a scam
The lad obviously had no idea what was involved to create one of these machines, it was set to crash n burn from the off.
I think the main problem - and the unforgiveable error - is that he didn't check to see if anyone had already done what he proposed. Modern C64 interpretations have been built before and are largely, very good.
Hardware recreation is difficult - not least because the C64 incorporated flaws in its 6510 and other ICs as 'features'. This gave the designers of the C128 (and I presume the C-One) plenty of headaches, let alone someone with no skill in this area. Given that difficulty, it's easier to emulate - but that's been done superbly in VICE which emulates pretty much all 8-bit Commodores.
That leaves the proposal with no unique features, other than that it's being proposed by someone who by their own admission doesn't know what they're doing. That's a tough sell.
Anyone actually managed to do a 100% accurate emulation of the SID chip yet? Last I heard it was the analogue stage of the chip that meant it was a devil to properly emulate.
Everyone's out, bitch!
These kickstarter thingies are getting as bad as Dragons Den!

Re: Everyone's out, bitch!
Well, at least on dragons den you get some Scottish bloke who'll point out "You have no business plan, no clue and a bad product, I'm oot".
Re: Everyone's out, bitch!
It was on Indiegogo, not Kickstarter as...
...it wouldn't have been accepted on Kickstarter as they have more stringent rules detailing what can go on their site. In particluar, hardware Kickstarter projects must already have a prototype they can demonstrate to potential backers. Quoting from their project guidelines:
"Projects must be clear about their state of development, and cannot be presented as preorders of finished products. Projects must show details (photos, videos, sketches) of their progress so far, along with a prototype demonstrating the product's current functionality. Projects must explain how the final design is likely to differ from the prototype, and include a production plan (i.e., how you're going to make it) and an estimated timeline."
For the last time Dougal, that money was just resting in my account!
These emulators are very small, those emulators are far away ... small ... far away ...
bad choice of words, or not??
I'm disgusted at jeri for labeling him a scammer without any evidence, crushing someone like that is not a mature way to do things.
Re: Everyone's out, bitch!

...it wouldn't have been accepted on Kickstarter as they have more stringent rules detailing what can go on their site.

So, some pre-loaded memory cards, and a C64-shaped case into which to slip the Pi - if there was sufficient interest in his original idea, wouldn't that transfer over to this?

Oooo look at her LinkedIn profile. She's now working at Valve, working on gaming hardware.
*Sees the gaming hardware monitors sweat*
... ah, still, great office.
Sorry to be the carrier of bad news, but she isn't. Her LinkedIn profile says she left in February 2013 — no doubt in that big round of layoffs they did.
No she isn't, she got fired earlier this year, according to her own Tweet.
It takes a scammer to see another scammer
The bottom line is recreating a C64 makes as much sense are recreating the wax cylinder gramophone. Stupid doesn't even begin to describe it.
Re: It takes a scammer to see another scammer
That's a matter of opinion- people can judge the value of the recreated C64 for themselves. It's not like they were misled, nor that they were charged silly money for the things.
Anyway, regarding the original story... It's true that from an investment point-of-view one has to err on the side of caution. If something gives off the warning signs of *potentially* being a scam, it should be treated as such until there is sufficient evidence otherwise.
At a personal level though, the guy's entitled to the benefit of the doubt. Since it isn't entirely clear that it *was* a would-be scam rather than a badly-thought-through scheme by someone with more enthusiasm than sense, he shouldn't be being flamed as the former. While Ellsworth was probably right to warn people off the scheme, she could perhaps have been less personal about it.
Re: It takes a scammer to see another scammer
I dunno. I like old computers - I love El Reg's line in retro tech - and I have nearly bought various old Speccys, Beebs and such... and then realised I'd have a quick play and never touch them again. If it's games you want, you can do that in emulation, and are really going to sit there and hack out code in Basic? Especially with no internet and all the modern stuff we all take for granted? I think I'd rather code on a Pi, and actually be able to do interesting and possibly useful things.
Why would you want to recreate it?
I'm quite the C64 fan, for me it was one of the first real "homecomputers" which I owned and I sure spend years on it. It was awesome. As such it should be no surprise that I have several models lying around the house; the new "flat" design with the new SID chip, two or three of the old "bread basket" models, datasette, 1541, etc.
But the thing is; in my opinion nothing beats the original. That's also one of the reasons why I also got some older models apart from my "new" flat model. An opinion backed by others it seems when focussing on the flaws which were in the design.
The reason I'm questioning all this is because there doesn't seem to be a shortage or anything if you want to get one yourself. When I check out "Marktplaats", a Dutch trading website comparable to eBay, then I get approx. 150 results when looking for the Commodore 64 (link to Marktplaats.nl search results). E 75,- for the machine and several games, right down to the print plate, advertisement for a repair serivce, joysticks, the VIC20, the original matrix printer, etc, etc.
When checking the international eBay website I get almost 4000 different results.
So looking at the fund raising idea from within this context I have to agree with the harsh verdicts. My personal take on this is simple: Why would you want to recreate it when there's still so much original material available out there?
If you want a C64 yourself al you have to do is check the wanted advertisements, choose and pick one up.
Nothing beats the original in my opinion.
Mutant Camels on the Starboard Bow
All very strange. Guy seeks $150k but admits "he lacks the technical skill to design and build the machine," - what could possibly go wrong ?
And why does anyone want such things ? I (I'm sure like many Vulturistas of a certain age) cut my teeth on a C64, and I have fond memories of it. It's still in my loft, but for some strange reason I can't be arsed to fire it up. What I really would like to see, is some of the genuinely innovative ideas around at the time (ask SID about the title), implemented on modern platforms.
Mind how you go
Proving yet again...
Nerds are not known for tact.
A modern C64
Who'd want a "new" C64 when you can buy an old one for 30 quid and stick a state of the art SD card reader in the cartridge socket? My C64 has 16gb of storage plugged into the back of it and the cartridge has 100% accurate emulation of a 1541 disk drive as well (even has a cable that runs from the cartridge to the serial disc drive socket).
Granted my flashy cartridge cost me about 100 sovs (cheaper less fully featured versions are available) but the net result is a C64 dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century and I no longer have to ever use a tape or 5.25 inch disk again!
Re: A modern C64
Please tell me more about this cartridge. (like where to get one!) I have two working 64s (1983 & 1988 versions) a couple of 1541s and original datacette plus a large collection of original games. It does however take an age, even on a 1541 to load up games like Racing Destruction Set, Summer Games, Rescue on Fractalus etc.
I would to play these classics more often.
(It's not the same running Frodo on my Android phone...)
Re: A modern C64
The cartridge is the 1541 Ultimate and is available from this guy:
The waiting list can be quite long. Mine took about 2 months to turn up as he makes them in smalli batches.
There are cheaper alternatives available but I've had my 1541 Ultimate for nearly a year and I love it. Importantly when plugged into the C64 it looks exactly the part and as I say the emulation is top notch. It also has features like a SID player and can emulate an Action Replay cartridge. WHen they say it's "Ultimate" they really mean it.
I have no connection to them other than being a very satisfied customer. I have SD card solutions for many of my old machines but this is a whole league above most kit!
Re: A modern C64
Thank-you. I know what I'm ordering next pay day!
Re: A modern C64
It's called the "1541 Ultimate II". It plugs into the cartridge port, accepts a microSD card, emulates a number of cartridges, connects to the IEC bus via the standard cable, and can coexist with other daisy chained devices. I just got one a few weeks ago and it works as advertised. Cheaper than that are the SD2IEC cards that plug into the IEC bus and use the tape port or an external power supply for power. The 1541 Ultimate II does not require additional power.
You can also buy JiffyDOS chips for the computers and drives on eBay, which improves drive performance as well as automatically adding DOS wedge commands. The 1541 Ultimate II can also be used with JiffyDOS; the primary advantage being no need for a 1541 or disk swaps.
Ultimate old type game machine
Why have something emulate such an old technology. Yeah; I owned a Commodore VIC-20 and 64. Got allot of use on CompuServe in 1982-1986 and fun out of them. What we need is a embedded system that has the following items in addition to central chipset - HDTV/VGA out, Wifi, sound chip(HDTV compatable) and output (if VGA setup is used), ports for controllers(again-non royalty), and USB. Must be small enough to fit in pocket. Now all we need is a simple language to have fun programing. It should be new so not to have to pay royalties. Simple enough for the average person to use. Complete documentation as the early computers gave to their users to program and ... Guess what, these products already exist! Such as http://www.viaembedded.com/en/products/systems/1990/1/ARTiGO_A1250_%28Pico-ITX%29.html
The ultimate nerd chick
Just sayin.
I'm baffled
Why should anyone pay any attention to some middle-skill techie who once did something that sold a lot (according to Wonkypedia, anyway)? Especially when said said non-expert is using words like "scam" without any evidence at all.
She sounds like a thoroughly unpleasant person to me.
Phat attitude.
Presumably any project involving the Commodore products line will have to be vetted by that woman Jeri Ellsworth who doesn't own the brand and who must be retarded not to be playing Xbox by now but for £150k they could have easily built on old piece of crap simply by breaking a c64 up and stuffing it into a Zboard just like Ellsworth does.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – When Stefanie Dolson powered home a layup while being fouled with 14:13 to play, she clinched her fists, let our a roar and bumped shoulders with teammates.
Connecticut was headed to its record-setting ninth women's basketball championship.
Notre Dame's Natalie Achonwa stood up emotionless from the bench as Dolson's shot went in. It was all she could do in that black knee brace.
Dolson's three-point play pushed the Huskies in front 60-42, and they finished off the Irish for a 79-58 victory in the NCAA title game at Bridgestone Arena on Tuesday night.
It was a devastating way for Notre Dame to suffer its only loss of the season. So talented, so used to slicing up opponents, the Irish ran into a juggernaut greater than themselves.
Notre Dame (37-1) fell behind 22-8 less than nine minutes into the game and could only claw back within five before UConn broke it open again.
Kayla McBride had 21 points and five rebounds in her final game for the Irish. Jewell Loyd added 13 points and six rebounds, while Michaela Mabrey scored 10 off the bench.
The Huskies (40-0) defended last season's title and surpassed Tennessee's eight for the most ever. UConn also completed the fifth unbeaten season in its increasingly storied history. No team all season came within 10 points of the Huskies.
For more on this game, read Wednesday's Journal Gazette or return to www.journalgazette.net after 3 a.m.

Scientists have determined that Helicobacter pylori, the bacterium that causes peptic ulcers and some forms of stomach cancer, requires the vitamin B6 to establish and maintain chronic infection, according to research published this week in the online journal mBio. This finding, along with the identification of the enzyme the microbe requires to utilize the vitamin, could lead to the development of an entirely new class of antibiotics.
"Approximately half the world's population is infected with H. pylori, yet how H. pylori bacteria establish chronic infections in human hosts remains elusive. To our knowledge, this study is the first to describe a link between this vitamin and bacterial pathogenesis," says Richard Ferrero of Monash University in Melbourne, Australia, a researcher on the study which also included scientists from the Institut Pasteur and the University of Notre Dame, Sydney, Australia.
To better understand how H. pylori causes disease, Ferrero and his colleagues used a method known as in vitro attenuation to create low-infectivity variants of the bacteria and then compared the gene expression profiles to that of the original highly infectious bacteria. Using this method they identified PdxA and PdxJ, enzymes involved in vitamin B6 biosythesis, as being important factors for the chronic colonization of mice by H. pylori. Bacteria that lacked these enzymes were unable to establish a chronic infection in a mouse model.
"This work identifies vitamin B6 biosynthesis enzymes as novel virulence factors for bacterial pathogens," says Ferrero. "Interestingly, a number of human pathogens, but not their mammalian hosts, possess these genes, which suggests that Pdx enzymes may represent ideal candidates for new therapeutic drugs."
