The Paleo diet may be so 'easy a caveman could do it,' but getting consumers inspired to eat at a restaurant offering the type of cuisine our earliest ancestors ate may be difficult.
As the the owner of Dick's Kitchen, a restaurant in Oregon with a Paleo-based menu, Richard Satnick has been following the diet consisting of lean meat and a lot of veggies for years. He's convinced that the Paleo paradigm, as he calls it, is the answer to America's growing obesity problem. His goal is to spread the word about how delicious healthy food can be.
"I get so excited about it that I want to talk about it all the time, but with customers you have to be subtle, said Satnick, who also owns Laughing Planet Café, a fast casual restaurant chain specializing in healthy burritos and bowls. "You want to tell them about it, but you don't want to be pigeon holed as some weird establishment or someone who's on a moral crusade to change world."
Satnick, who said following Paleo has alleviated his arthritis symptoms, helped him drop 40 pounds and gotten him off of all his blood pressure medicine, opened the first Dick's Kitchen last year in Portland. The second location opens in a few weeks in Northwest Portland. Both restaurants compete in the "better burger category, serving burgers made from only 100-perecent grass fed beef. It also features other lean protein choices including elk, buffalo, salmon and turkey. Side dishes include a variety of veggie dishes fit for the Paleo eater. They include mashed sweet potatoes, pickled veggies and what Satnick calls "Not-Fries," air-baked, hand-cut potatoes with no salt but served with a variety of dipping sauces.
"What people don't realize is that grass-fed beef is so delicious; it just tastes better, and it just so happens that it's better for you, too," Satnick said.
Paleo's history
The Paleolithic diet, also often called the caveman diet or hunter-gatherer diet, promotes eating what people consumed during the Paleolithic era—a period of about 2.5 million years that ended around 10,000 years ago with the development of agriculture. The modern-day version of the diet centers around eating 100 percent, grass-fed pasture raised meats, fish, vegetables, fruit, roots and nuts. It excludes grains, legumes, most dairy products, salt, refined sugar and processed oils.
Paleo is one of the healthiest ways to eat, according to Loren Cordain, author of the Paleo Diet, who said he's not surprised that a restaurant would center a menu around the eating program. In fact, he expects more restaurants to get on board as the population realizes its benefits.
"Recent randomized controlled trials show Paleo to be superior to Mediterranean diets, diabetic diets and the U.S.D.A. MyPlate diet in terms of nutrient density and health outcomes," he said. "On top of that it is delicious. A series of Paleo cookbooks have been published in the last year showing just how tasty real, unadulterated, fresh food can be."
How it works
According to Cordain, what society has taught us about how to lose weight is wrong.
"Conventional wisdom tells us that to lose weight we must burn more calories than we take in and that the best way to accomplish this is to eat a plant-dominated, low-fat, high-carbohydrate diet. The first part of this equation is still true -- a net caloric deficit must occur in order for weight to be lost, Cordain said on this website. "However, the experience for most people on low-calorie, high-carbohydrate diets is unpleasant. They are hungry all the time, and for the vast majority, any weight lost is regained rapidly or within a few months of the initial loss. "
He also points out that there are more than 6 billion people alive on the planet in the 21st century, and that cereal grains provide more than half of the energy required to feed the world's people. Without cereal grains, there would be massive starvation of unprecedented proportion.
"We have walked down a path of absolute dependence upon cereal grains -- a path that cannot be reversed. However, in most western countries, cereals are not a necessity, particularly in many segments of the population that suffer most from Syndrome X and other chronic diseases of civilization. In this population, a return to a Stone Age Diet is not only possible, but highly practical in terms of long-term health care costs."
Knowing how effective Paleo could be in helping Americans with health issues, Satnick said he struggles with how to get his point across without alienating the customers who don't care.
To market or not to market?
Although Satnick admits he's thought about donning a caveman suit and shouting his message to the world, he doesn't think that's the smartest way to go.
"It's rough; how do you talk to your customers? I love the Paleo lifestyle, but I know not everyone does, so I'm not sure it's the basis of a true marketing campaign."
For that reason, Dick's Kitchen's décor doesn't include cavemen mascots or posters about Paleo; in fact, it looks like a typical NYC diner.
"There's some info about Paleo on table tents and on the menu, but we don't really market it that much because you can't hit people over the head with it," Satnick said. "We want to appeal to a broad group, and who doesn't love great burgers? But there are also subgroups of folks looking for gluten free, Paleo and low-carb options. We recognize that but aren't going to pin our identity on it. "
At the end of the day, Satnick's goal is to provide a fun place for people to hang out and enjoy a really good burger.
"The best way to do this is to just let them eat and then start the conversation if they are into (learning)," Satnick said. "I've learned that some folks don't want to hear about all this; but most want to eat a good hamburger and not spend a fortune. They have to love the food, and then we surprise them when they find out how healthy it is."
Is Paleo a fad?
One only has to look back on how quickly restaurants embraced the Atkin's diet to see that diets come and go even in the restaurant industry. Satnick, however, strongly believes Paleo is here to stay.
"Of course if it's a fad, you don't want to be left as yesterday's news if the public's attention moves, so it's a challenge to know how much of it to deploy," he said. "But I don't think the underlying issues are a trend or a fad. Paleo will change how the medical community looks at health and the obesity epidemic; it's gonna take time; there's so much old interest in the old paradigm, but it will happen."
Robb Wolf is a former research biochemist and author of the New York Times Best Seller, "The Paleo Solution – The Original Human Diet."
"I believe this is here to stay," he said. "We now have thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of people who have reversed a host of diseases. I suspect that creates a lifetime Paleo devotee."
Spreading the word
Satnick isn't sure how far the Dick's Kitchen concept will go. He plans to open another restaurant in Oregon before thinking about branching out of the state with others. He's also not sure if Dick's should stay burger focused, pointing out that the better burger category is saturated these days with the Smashburgers of the world.
The question is rather if he can build a brand around the fact that his burgers are 100 percent grass fed and that all his food is local.
"When we talk about our rancher, you get to meet her; you hear the story and about how we are preserving jobs and generations of knowledge of ranching in a sustainable way; about how humanely the animals are treated," he said. "We do want to tell that story, but it has to be delicate so that it's incorporated into our brand --so we don't have to stand up and lecture."
Satnick isn't sure if the concept will fly, but he's going to try.
"Can we build a unique brand that this is 100 percent the full monty? Can we ride this Paleo thing? I don't know, but if you don't try you'll never know," he said. "And it's worth it; I know we could solve the health care problem in this country with this lifestyle; why not stop these health problems before they start?"

Five Risky Bets that Paid OffFollow @sarah_childressMay 22, 2012, 9:43 pm ET Tonight's film tells the story of a big bet by MF Global CEO Jon Corzine. While markets were anxious that a number of European countries would default, Corzine made a large proprietary bet that European government bonds were selling cheap and would go up in value. The $6 billion wager was "big enough to wipe out the firm five times over if it went bad," according to The New York Times. "The basic reasons people do takes these risks is that they believe that they're right," said Richard Sylla, professor of economics and financial history at New York University's Stern School of Business. And as Six Billion Dollar Bet shows, Jon Corzine had an appetite for risk. "Jon Corzine has always been a gambling man," explains financial journalist William Cohan in the film. "This is what he does. Why do scorpions sting? Because that's what they do." We've compiled a list of five risky bets that could have made history as financial failures. Instead, these investors — from a small-town Tennessean to a Hungarian money whiz — got it right, and went on to make millions, even billions of dollars. THE PIONEERSir John Templeton grew up in small-town Tennessee, not on Wall Street, and started his career in finance in 1938. A year later, when war broke out in Europe and most investors began selling, Templeton decided to buy. He borrowed $10,000 to buy shares in 104 companies trading for less than $1 on the New York Stock Exchange, including 34 that had already declared bankruptcy, according to his official biography. Within four years that investment was worth about $40,000, the foundation of what would become a multi-million-dollar fortune. He died in 2008 at age 95, five years after he predicted the housing crash and declared the stock market "broken." THE MAN WITH A METHODConsidered one of Wall Street's greatest traders, Jesse Livermore, whose worth would ultimately be estimated at more than $100 million, shorted the stock market in the 1920s, waiting for what he assumed would be an inevitable collapse. He was already wealthy, a speculator less interested in a company's fundamentals than whether he could profit from investing in or against it. "Everything Jesse Livermore touched turned to gold, it seemed," said Robert Sobel, a historian interviewed for AMERICAN EXPERIENCE's The Crash. "All he had to do was to press a button and a stock would go up ten points." When the market crashed on Oct. 29, 1929, he came home and, according to his daughter-in-law, told his wife he'd made more money that day than he'd ever made before. THE STERLING SPECULATORIn what's become a kind of financial legend, Hungarian-American investor George Soros risked $10 billion shorting the British pound in 1992. The mess started, according to an account from More Money Than God, Sebastian Mallaby's history of hedge funds, when the president of the German central bank at the time made a public remark that signaled he felt the British pound should be devalued, or that it was worth less than the current selling price. Once Soros heard this, he reportedly told his chief portfolio manager, "Go for the jugular." Soros and his firm, Quantum Fund, sold as much sterling as they could that afternoon, driving down the price of the currency. The next day, other investors piled on. The Bank of England bought up one billion pounds to keep the price stable, and even raised interest rates, according to The New York Times, to no avail. The pound was devalued. Soros made $1 billion and was dubbed "the man that broke the Bank of England." THE COMPANY HEROA trader at Deutsche Bank, Greg Lippmann was one of the few who, like Paulson, thought the subprime housing market was likely to collapse. As told in Michael Lewis' The Big Short and Greg Zuckerman's The Greatest Trade Ever, Lippman's bet that the housing bubble would pop led his colleagues to dub him "Bubble Boy." But when it did, Lippmann made $1.5 billion, which he later told a Senate committee [PDF] was what he believed to be the largest profit ever obtained from a single position in Deutsche Bank history. Lippmann has since left the bank to found his own hedge fund, LibreMax Capital. "I don't feel guilty," Lippman responded to his critics via The New York Observer. "Look, if more people had viewed the world the way I did, the catastrophe would have been smaller. It's not my fault." THE SUBPRIME STARDuring financial disasters, there are usually at least a handful of investors who profit from others' losses. This most recent crash was no different. Investor John Paulson, who wasn't considered a major player on Wall Street, scraped together a $147 million fund from friends and family, and bet against the housing market just before the crash in 2007, according to The Wall Street Journal. His firm made $15 billion. Paulson, 56, currently ranks at #61 on Forbes' list of billionaires, which hailed him as "The hedge-fund titan who pulled off the greatest trade ever." But in 2011, the market turned on Paulson, who lost billions betting that the U.S. economy would recover. He was knocked by Time magazine for making one of the "Top 10 business blunders" of the year, and has been struggling to turn around the losses since. RELATED

As the title indicates i get this "error" when running my little app:
WARN/ActivityManager(78): Launch timeout has expired, giving up wake lock!
It came after I added this line to my manifest file:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
The reason I added that line was to get my app the abillity to connect to a serversocket. Read on another forum that the line would solve my problem (not being able to connect). And well it might have but instead I get that other error.
I'm totally new to android so don't understand much of that android specific stuff going on. Have some Java experience though.
Any help appreciated (:
BTW: not sure if I should have posted some of my code?

Ch. 010 - You must die with grace
Gods... did this truly happen? Am I remembering right?
My mother takes me by the hand, says, "My son, the God calls."
I am afraid of her. It is the summer I will turn ten and I will be a man and a warrior and a king, and should not be afraid of women, especially my mother, so I whisper it to no one: I am afraid of her. I am afraid of the power in her, of the way her eyes, bright blue right now, flash and shine. She bore me, so I can't always have been afraid of her, but I do not remember when I did not.
She is garlanded as if for Dionysia, wreathed in flowers and gold, and she has drunk deeply already, I can see the God's wildness in her eyes, dark and bright at once. "Come, my son." She has a flask and a cup, she tells me I must pledge Him. "The God calls." She holds the cup to my lips, the wine, unmixed and mulled strongly and dark as blood stings across my lips, sinks hot into my insides; she wraps the garland around my head, blossoms crushing, shedding scent. "You must drink till you are mad, that is the way of the God.
"My son. Son of Zeus. My all-conquering child, who came to me by a lightning bolt, by the God in a serpent's form." She draws me by the hand, a lamp in the other, takes me not to where there are people, but into the dark grove near the temple of Zeus. The flickering of the shadows, the earth beneath my feet, the smell of the bark and the leaves of the oak trees in the darkness, all seems distant as if I am scrying, because of the wine; only my mother's voice seems close in my ear, low and sinuous.
"You whose destiny is to be a lightning bolt across the world, whose destiny is to be greater than anyone has known." The cup presses my lips. "Let the madness of the God take you, my child." She gives me wine that tastes almost more of nutmeg than of wine until I barely known up from down. She sings the hymn to the God, dances around me, her arms and garlands and gold snaking. She throws off her ground-brushing chiton, keeping only the gold and the flowers. Her skin gleams smooth and golden in the lamplight, her hips and thighs wide and powerful, her waist slender, the triangle of hair beneath her navel black like her head-hair and brows, right now. I have never seen a woman naked; all I can think, so full of wine, is how beautiful she is, and how proud I am of her. "My Zeus-begotten son." Her arms whip like flames, her hair dances, her eyes are full of the God's madness, and I am too drunk to be afraid any more.
She leans over me, her scent mixed with wine and nutmeg and flowers, unties the belt of my short boy's chiton, strips me naked like a baby. "My Zeus-gotten man-child, who will be fire across the world. Zeus shall come to me again, through you." She takes my face between her hands, kisses me on the lips, the cheeks, the forehead. She is tender, but the wine has made her hands a little rough. She kisses my eyes closed. "Let the madness take you, my son, born to greatness. Give yourself to it." She wraps her arm around my neck, and her other hand closes around my penis, squeezes and pulls, the sensations distant in my dizziness. I look, see only gold and shadows flickering and her wild narrow-set eyes, black now. "Give yourself to the God, my son."
She lets go and draws me down to lie beside her on the warm earth. She wraps her arms around me, swings me over as if we are wrestling. I hear myself giggle weirdly—as I do when I fight, though I have not fought yet. She holds the cup to my lips again. "Drink deep, Zeus-begotten one." I am afraid and certain at once that I have drunk enough to be more stupid, like the men late into the night when I'm hiding under my father's couch. I am wrapped in her golden flesh, in the fragrance of the flowers, in the gold. Then I am kneeling between her legs, her hands twined in my hair, her body writhing, the dark thatch of the sacred triangle of her hair opening to show red petals, like those of roses, but symmetrical, that glisten wet.
"You came from here, son of lightning, get of the storm." Her breath catches, her chest heaving. She seizes two fistfuls of my hair. "For the God, my child. You may not deny him. Do rightly and you may pledge him with Olympias's own nectar."
I stiffen; somewhere through my wine and drug-sodden senses feeling there is some evil in this, somehow, though I cannot name it. "Do not deny the God," she says, more roughly. She makes me take another draught, then pulls me in again, pressing my face to her dark-shining folds and petals.
Underneath the drunkenness I am frozen, as she instructs me. "Lick, my beautiful one who will be so great, lap me like a hungry dog, there." She sings my praises as I do as she asks, the world dissolves to sensations, her hot flesh on my tongue with its earthy salt-sourness, her fingers pulling my hair, the tiny rocks beneath my elbows, her moans with the words in between, "You shall strike the world across with fire, my Zeus-begotten one, fruit of my loins and the God's, you shall make all the world shake in fear, all will pale in glory before you..." I am distant from myself, wish I were more so. Her writhings speed, her grip tightens to painfulness, she starts making cries like she does joined with my father's when they make love, after fighting or other times. The folds of flesh harden beneath my tongue. She thrusts me off, inspired, swings up to kneeling and drags my head between her thighs. She lowers her weight on me, stopping my nose as well as my mouth, I cannot breathe, she does not let up. Why is this familiar?
"When you die," she says, "you must die with grace, with willingness. Would you give less to the Gods?" My lungs strain, and I feel dark fingers reaching towards me—death—and panic, distanced by what I have drunk. "I love you, my child. I have loved every sacrifice I ever made. I redden my hands with love." Her fingers are on my neck behind her, she is feeling the blood vessels there, the ones that pump out spurts of bright blood when the victim's throat is slashed.
Then suddenly I am watching this from above, as if I were a bird perched in the oak-branch above us. I see my tiny pale body beneath hers. I remember last time.
So I know this is real, it did happen.
"The blood of Zeus runs in your veins, and so he will come to me again..." She dedicates her pleasure formally to Him, and to Dionysos. A shudder seems to run through her body. "Come to me, Almighty One!" she cries. "I give myself to You, come to me, Wielder of Thunder, take me!" It ends in a wordless cry, her back arching. She looks straight up at me. Then her weight is off my body, air shrieks into my lungs and I am yanked back down violently beneath her again. A spurt of liquid fills my mouth. "Your pledge to the God, child, drink!" I do as she commands, take it into me, tasting and feeling even as part of me, I realize, is still watching from above, in a strange detachment like a philosopher, emotionless.
She goes boneless, her hands falling off my head, and lies still on the earth. We both lie panting. I have the strangest sensation, one I tell myself cannot be real: that, looking at the place I came from, I was looking into the very face itself of evil. Can I have come from that? I try to not to feel it, in the presence of the Gods.
She rises weakly, and takes my face between her hands. "This is a mystery, my son, yours and mine: no one is to know. Least of all anyone who might tell your father. He has no feel for things holy, he would not understand; he might take it as your cuckolding him."
I freeze with terror beyond terror, so bad the effects of the wine and the drug are suddenly gone. I am certain, now, of what I suspected: I have done a terrible evil. More terrible than any other evil done in the name of Dionysos; I have betrayed my father, the King, which is treason. I should die. Whatever she says, that it was sacred, that I am an initiate, now, in the service of the God, I feel filled with poison, I feel I am poison, and can never be cleansed, by the will of any God.
She struggles up, staggers away wildly, laughing, singing a hymn to Father Zeus. I lie alone in the dark, in the grove.
Somehow I am suddenly threefold, there are three Alexandroi, all the same but different, within me. We look identical, like triplets, but our three minds are on different things, different tasks, like officers assigned to different duties.
One of us moves our body's hands to drag our chiton back on. To the altar, another of us whispers. Our body staggers there, falls to kneeling before it. We have nothing to offer. Powerless and bereft without parents, like all children, we raise hands to the sky anyway, cry out, "Father Zeus!" In panic; none of us knows what to pray for. She dedicated this thing she did to Him as well, but we feel He will hear us, we who, threefold, are His son. We know only what the prayer is as it comes out. "Please make this never have happened!"
There are some wishes even the Gods cannot grant. To undo the mistake in planning a battle, to raise the dead, to turn back time... it is a child's prayer, asking the impossible. We sense Him looking sadly down at us, His child, from His throne on Olympus, knowing that He must deny that request, desperate and just as it is. But we sense another thought come into His divine mind, and His ancient veined hand loosen a thunderbolt, a smaller one, in His quiver. He cannot make this never have happened; but He can do the next best thing.
Nausea comes up so fast we cannot get out of the temple in time, we puke all over the marble floor. Red liquid spews out until our stomach is empty and even then it heaves dry many more times. That finishes the body's strength so completely it cannot even crawl away, and the priests find it lying in the mess. They hand it off to the Palace servants whom, no doubt, Olympias has told to come and get her son. (What did she tell them? "He got carried away by the God's madness, drank too much wine." Did my name as a lush start then?)
That night He shoots that small bolt into the sleeping body's head, a divine instant of shock that wipes away the memory, so that when I wake up in the morning, it is as if it had not happened. I am one rather than three again, the splitting of my mind no longer needed to keep me sane; the memory is gone from my conscious mind as if it never existed, and will stay so for the rest of this life, until now as I lie here growing distant enough from my dying flesh again that I can bear remembering.

I think I said it before . . . .
. . . that woman is crazy!
I agree that that was extremely disturbing, and I feel really icky having read it, not the least of which, there were aspects of it that were very . . . lyrical.
Conveying atrocity with lyricism
...is a job requirement of historical novelists writing about the ancient world, in my humble opinion, based on my short experience. Or at least ancient Greece. (Look up the etymology of the word "lyricism".) Thanks, J.

This was extremely disturbing... I personally don't think I wanted to read that, as I am too sensitive. Is it vital to the story? <=/

It does in part explain something about Alexander [UPDATED]
...namely his
life-long aversion to sex with women... the other partial cause being the other thing his mother did to him, earlier. Most straight guys could just go "gay" (I use scare quotes because that would not be their natural orientation, and it would be against the grain, but for some at least it is possible, and course there was no stigma about it in this culture) and not worry about it, but because he is going to be a king, procreating is a job requirement...
Note: I have received another comment privately objecting to me inventing both OOB scenes to explain why Alexander was gay. It actually didn't occur to me to think that readers might think I was doing that, so in case any others are as well, I've made some clarifications in the above spoiler-hidden paragraph.
But I also emphasize that it is not my opinion that bad experiences with mother produce the gay orientation in men. Or even a strong mother, for that matter. It's an old idea that I believe went out at about the same time the American Psychiatric Association officially stopped classifying homosexuality as a mental illness. I first heard it when I was a teen and it didn't even feel right to me then. I think you're born with your orientation, and while traumas might induce you to repress aspects of it or go outside of it in compensation in your behaviours, they don't actually change it, and those behaviours will always involve a certain amount of suffering.
Thus my opinion is not that Alexander would have been straight if his mother had been nicer. (If I thought that, Chevenga, whose mother is a saint, would be straight as a die ) I'm actually postulating Alexander's true natural orientation as about 50/50 bi. (Another Chevenga similarity, I know... there are just certain things I write about. But the history actually supports it.) Later on you'll see him struggle to enjoy sex with women not just for procreative purposes, but because a) his dad gets after him about it; b) he's required to consummate a ceremonial marriage in one place; and finally c) he falls in love with a woman. d) And then another woman. Nuff said
Thanks to GV and the other reader for spurring me to clarify what I'm doing.
BTW... Alexander's sexual orientation has been fodder for much scholarly debate, especially since the Victorian era. Pro-Alexander historian William Tarn, for instance, took the same approach as the makers of Troy (Patroklos is Achilles's... cousin! Yeah, that's it, his cousin!) arguing that Alexander couldn't possibly be gay, because he was a great hero and great heroes are always heterosexual, by God. At the same time anti-Alexander scholars used his gay/biness as clear evidence of his villainy. These lines of argument have faded out in recent years, give the academics credit. More often now the detractors go after him for being a drunk.

Single mom invests in private school to avoid redistrictingSubmitted by Heather Weeks (not verified) on Thu, 08/26/2010 - 9:53am.
I have paid for private schools (CFA and now MGCS) for the past seven years as I do believe I get what I pay for. What I buy is a team of educators who communicate with each other grade to grade, in order to bring out the best in my children. An environment that is stable, constant and structured promotes effective learning. A child in one school establishes a history with that school and its teachers and doesn't have to deal with new surroundings year over year. Children who struggle with classes are provided extra assistance to bring them up to speed, not redistricted to another school. A sense of security and consistent teamwork goes a long way in child development. »

UPDATE: Wedbush Initiates Neutral, $34 PT on Imperva on Favorable Long-Term Fundamentals
Wedbush initiated its coverage on Imperva (NYSE: IMPV) with a Neutral rating and a price target of $34.
Wedbush commented, "We are initiating coverage with a NEUTRAL rating and a $34 target based on our CY13 EV/sales analysis, supported by our DCF. We believe the LT outlook for the company is positive given its positioning as a leading player in one of the fastest growing segments of the security market, data security, which is growing at 20%+ y/y. We think security market spending, which is primarily focused on securing the perimeter, will eventually shift to a hybrid model involving the addition of data security as a complementary, but mandatory feature."
Imperva closed at $29.47 on Tuesday.

I've been reading on Colonial style beer recipes, in preparation of brewing an extract based, Colonial style ale that's a close representation of what a Colonial ale might have tasted like in those day's. Here's the recipe that I have so far: 8 lbs Pale Malt Extract 4 lbs Wheat Malt Extract 1 lb Molasses 1 1/2 oz Kent Goldings (60 min) 1 oz Cluster Hops (10 min) My first question is: Would 1 lb of Molasses be to much, and overpower this recipe? Molasses was a widely used adjunct in the Colonial day's of home brewing, and not only must it be a part of this recipe, but you must be able to tell that It's there in the finished product. I'm just wondering if 1 lb of molasses is to much to overpower it, and that I should maybe start out with let's say, 1/2 lb of molasses? My second question is: Corn was also said to be very popular in Colonial brewing, and It's said that cracked local maize was the most likely to be used. Now if I wanted to incorporate corn into the above recipe, would I be better off with 1 lb or 2 lbs of flaked corn (maize)? My third question is: It's my understanding that Colonial era beers were very hoppy, like an IPA. I'm wondering if I should use more hops?
Subscribed. I am interested in seeing where this beer goes.
I remember reading somewhere that herbs were used as well, hops did not appear in the US till after rev war? I could be completely wrong, try the home brewers garden book, has some good history...is this for a reenactment?
Good luck, but if you really brewed something they drank then, I think you would be very disappointed. As noted earlier, I think the beer would have been made with herbs, and not hops, and probably have some sour (vinegar) taste to it.
Vinegar? I hardly think they'd have put up with that. Beers were necessarily sour due to how they were produced, but hops were a well-known and commonly used ingredient during this era. In Bavaria, at the time, it was unlawful to not use hops. America has lots of hop plants and imagine some would have been imported from England. That isn't to say that local herbs weren't used instead, but 1776 would have known plenty about hops. Also, sour beers are absolutely fantastic. Vinegar? Not at all.
The Native Americans were using hops as medicine probably before they were used in making beer. bosco

Featuring one of France's longest greenways, Burgundy is a cyclist's paradise. Our colorful itinerary allows you to go from the world's most exceptional wines and varying shades of Burgundian red, to the Charolais white! As you cycle, you will travel through a palette of colors as varied and diverse as the remarkable tiled roofs that top the mosaic of exceptional medieval sites you'll encounter on your journey.
Needless to say, gastronomy and wines will be on par with our memorable itinerary! Tour Itinerary: Day 1: Arrive in Beaune Arrive in Beaune at the time of your choice. The earlier you arrive, the more time you'll have to drink in—figuratively and literally—the magical allure of Burgundy's wine capital. Its cobblestone streets offer world-class attractions including the 15th century Notre-Dame Basilica, the Hôtel-Dieu, with its famous multi-colored tile roof, and the Wine Museum. There are also numerous wine 'caves' (wine cellars), perfect for sharpening your toast-making skills for the days ahead! Day 2: Beaune to Beaune (two options: 55 km (34 miles) or 70 km (44 miles) The first ride is a loop from Beaune to the Abbey of Citeaux, a historically important abbey located in St. Nicolas-lés-Citeaux. From the Abbey, the route takes you through the best Pinot noir vineyards of Burgundy, Chambolle-Musigny and Nuits-Saint-Georges, among others. Day 3: Beaune – Rully (30 km or 20 miles) Right after breakfast you'll meet our local representative, who will outfit you with bikes and go over the next few days' itinerary. You can take it easy for this first day as the ride is fairly short and leisurely through Chardonnay land. The villages of Pommard, Meursault and Santenay will be the best introduction to the region and provide you with many good options for lunch. Our hotel is in the center of the village of Rully and boasts an excellent restaurant. A slightly longer route will take you up to the village of Saint-Romain before rejoining the normal itinerary. Day 4: Rully – Buxy (two options: 37 km (20 miles) or 47 km (29 miles) Today's route carries us south through the Cotes Challonnaises and the village of Mercurey, which produces one of the best examples of the pinot noir appellation of the same name. The terrain is a bit more rolling with a succession of hamlets, creeks, woods, and of course vineyards. You will stay in the pretty medieval village of Buxy, for 2 nights, where we use a very friendly hotel with swimming pool. Day 5: Rest day or optional ride to Cluny (from 40 km to 70 km or from 25 to 44 miles) You may opt to spend the day relaxing or browsing the streets of Buxy and perusing its shops, or you may choose to do our recommended loop. Our optional ride from Buxy takes you south to the world-renowned Abbey of Cluny, which was built in 910 AD, and still towers as a monument to Romanesque architecture and the prestigious center of Christendom in medieval Europe. Prior to the building of Saint Peter's in Rome, it reigned as the largest church in the world and earned a reputation for producing popes. The ride back to Buxy will be done on the cycle path. If you're not interested in this optional ride, Day 6: Buxy to Nolay (45 km or 28 miles) After breakfast, we'll travel northwest to the country town of Couches, after crossing the Canal du Centre. This itinerary is definitely a good contrast and a nice balance to the wine-making area, as you'll be crossing a land of cattle farms, oak woods, and isolated farms. This ride ends in the market town of Nolay, where you will overnight. Day 7: Nolay to Beaune (two options: 23 km (14 miles) or 40 km (25 miles) The ride from Nolay goes up to Bligny-sur-Ouche and down to the Canal of Burgundy at Pont d'Ouche. After riding along the peaceful canal on the tow-path, we will cycle back to Beaune. This 15-km stretch is a smooth downhill through lovely forest before reaching the great vineyards of Alex Corton. Day 8: Departure. Notes: Pricing: From 800 euros per person sharing a double room.

This study provides a novel systematic comparative analysis of the species characteristics affecting the range margin shifts in butterflies towards higher latitudes, while taking phylogenetic relatedness among species into account. We related observed changes in the northern range margins of 48 butterfly species in Finland between two time periods (1992–1996 and 2000–2004) to 11 species traits. Species with positive records in at least ten 10 km × 10 km grid squares (in the Finnish National Butterfly Recording Scheme, NAFI) in both periods were included in the study. When corrected for range size change, the 48 butterfly species had shifted their range margins northwards on average by 59.9 km between the study periods, with maximum shifts of over 300 km for three species. This rate of range shifts exceeds all previously reported records worldwide. Our findings may be explained by two factors: the study region is situated in higher latitudes than in most previous studies and it focuses on the period of most prominent warming during the last 10–15 years. Several species traits exhibited a significant univariate relationship with the range margin shift according to generalized estimation equations (GEE) taking into account the phylogenetic relatedness among species. Nonthreatened butterflies had on average expanded their ranges strongly northwards (84.5 km), whereas the distributions of threatened species were stationary (−2.1 km). Hierarchical partitioning (HP) analysis indicated that mobile butterflies living in forest edges and using woody plants as their larval hosts exhibited largest range shifts towards the north. Thus, habitat availability and dispersal capacity of butterfly species are likely to determine whether they will be successful in shifting their ranges in response to the warming climate.

Question from knight_64
How to play online?
Okay this is silly, I bought the game over PSN so I don't have a manual. I click host game or look for hosts, it gives me 1-20 channel choice, I tried some of them, and they are always empty. I thought channel 1 is supposed to be full.
At first I thought there is no option to play online, the host game option is only for blutooth. But I saw some topics in the forums. I don't wanna miss something out, I need help in some missions. I want the online featute.
TLDR; How do I play online?
5 years ago
You need to have a ps3 and download adhoc party, thats the only solution!!

Adhoc Party suggest by tactikz4 or use X-Link Kai (which require you to buy something) to get online

While the U.S. economy sputtered along last year, intermodal container volume hit a record high with 13.1 million moves.
The Intermodal Association of North America reports the level surpassed the previous years total by 5.9% and is 9.8% percent higher than the previous benchmark set in 2007.
The groups said for the third straight year, domestic containers were the driving factor with volumes topping five million for the first time, reflecting a growth rate of 12.2% over 2011 activity. 48-foot and 53-foot domestic boxes accounted for 38 percent of all container movements for the year. Despite some year-end softening, international volumes continued to have the largest share of intermodal loadings at 52 percent of the total.
For all of 2012, there were 14.632 million intermodal moves, 4% higher than 2011's level. Intermodal trailer volume last year fell 10.1% to 1.532 million while all domestic equipment increased 6.5% in volume to 7.051 million units while ISO containers gained 1.7% to 7.580 million
There was some softening in the final quarter of last year with total intermodal volume growing just 2% from the same time a year earlier.

Favorite non butter-based desserts?

What are your favorite desserts without (or with very very little) butter?
So, for example, a fruit tart would not count, but a pavlova would.
Similarly, a sponge cake or a meringue would be ok, but not a classic genoise.
I think mine would be, in no particular order, Tiramisu, Cheesecake, Mochi balls w/ Azuki beans, and Ice Cream.
In posing this question you have made me realize that there are very few desserts I like that don't have butter.
I am not a huge sweet eater to begin with (give me french fries over the finest chocolates) but when I do want something sweet it is usually something with caramel or something with a nice buttery crust or puff pastry.
Even cheese cake needs to have buttery crust or at least a salted caramel sauces….
So my answer is NONE!

I have never seen a bread pudding recipe that does not call for butter! Never mind the sauce that most include usually have a whole stick of the stuff. Care to share your recipe?
re: foodieX2
Bread pudding does not have to be made with butter (in fact, I do it all the time), and it's probably better without it.
Bread pudding, at its core, is essentially some sort of bread or carbohydrate drenched in custard, and then baked in a water bath. And custard, traditionally, is just a combo of milk, eggs, and sugar.
Of course, you can dress up bread pudding in all sorts of fashion, with sauces and what-not, but bread pudding can absolutely be made without any butter (assuming you are using a bread that has no butter to begin with).

re: foodieX2
I rarely use butter in my bread pudding. Plenty of cream or half and half and eggs/egg yolks but never butter. There might be butter in the bread but I think quick breads like pumpkin bread are better in bread pudding w/out butter/oil.
Something along these lines:
re: chowser
Absolutely! Made one the other night with old hamburger buns, skim milk, sugar, eggs, vanilla, cinnamon, and a few pecans. I just put it in a ceramic casserole and baked it. It was tasty, despite being made ostensibly from nonfat junk food.

Here's the recipe using leftover white bread. As I said, I substituted panettone (don't have the package, so not sure if it contained butter. I did cut the amount of sugar in half, since the panettone itself is sweet):
Old Fashioned Bread Pudding
2 slightly beaten eggs
2 1/4 cups half and half
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. salt
2 cups day old white bread, cubed
1/2 cup raisins (optional)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine first six ingredients and mix together well. Add remaining ingredients and pour into an 8 or 9 inch square oven proof dish. Sprinkle top with an additional bit of sugar/cinnamon mixture. Place dish in a larger pan of hot water, about 1 inch deep - forming a water bath. Bake for 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted between center and edge comes out clean.0
Many desserts that use butter can be done w/ lard and often is better--eg pie crusts, tarts, even chinese almond cookies. I love the flakiness of chinese almond cookies w/ lard. I love "puff" pastry w/ adzuki beans. Happy mouth cookies:
It's debatable for me whether I prefer butter based or non-butter based desserts (ice cream, panna cotta, mochi, custard tarts, etc.)
