Mexico restaurants
Cast aside your preconceptions when approaching Mexico's restaurant scene: It's far more exciting than your average taqueria. Chefs in Mexico City, Puerto Vallarta, and Acapulco blend international, regional, and pre-Hispanic ingredients and techniques, creating an ever-evolving nouvelle Mexican cuisine. Check out Izote and Aguila y Sol in Mexico City and chef Thierry Blouet's Café des Artistes in Puerto Vallarta for innovative fare, and look for cafés around any city's main plaza or historic center for authentic Mexican regional dishes.
Indeed, there is no such thing as "Mexican food," given the variety of regional differences: In the Yucatán, seafood is baked in banana leaves; in Zihuatanejo, it's wrapped in corn tortillas to make fish tacos. In Acapulco, chefs use a sweetish cocktail sauce in their ceviches instead of the simple lime and cilantro marinade used elsewhere. Look for posole (a hominy stew) on the Pacific Coast and cochinita pibil (marinated pork) on the Caribbean. Be sure to sample at least one dish prepared with traditional mole, a concoction containing Mexican chocolate, cinnamon bark, nuts, seeds, several types of chiles, and often raisins. Most restaurants in tourist areas use purified water for food preparation. If you're wary, stick with fully cooked dishes.

Can Libya's people be protected if Qaddafi stays?
Libya's rebels, many of whom have stories of loved ones lost to Muammar Qaddafi's regime, are driven by his legacy of torture, murder, and disappearances.
Benghazi, Libya
President Obama may have equivocated last night – saying the international bombing campaign against Muammar Qaddafi's forces is not about forcing regime change while insisting that Mr. Qaddafi must "step down from power."
But in Libya's rebel capital there's little doubt about his intent. UN Security Council Resolution 1973 authorizes "all necessary measures … to protect civilians" and here in Benghazi, the rebel government and ordinary civilians say there can be no true protection as long as Qaddafi remains in power.
"If you go to Tobruk, Marj, Benghazi, Zawiya, anywhere in Libya, you'll find a family that has lost someone to this man," says Abdel Kader Kadura, a law professor at Benghazi's Garyounis University. "For us, for Libya, there is one killer. Qaddafi. It doesn't stop until he goes."
Consider the courthouse along Benghazi's waterfront. It's often described as the seat of Libya's rebel government. But its true symbolic power lies in the graffiti and posters that adorn its walls and the small plaza it fronts, an outpouring of expression that's become something of a shrine.

Origin of the n-type conductivity of InN: The role of positively charged dislocations
Piper, L. F. J., Veal, T. D. (Tim D.), McConville, C. F. (Chris F.), Lu, Hai and Schaff, W. J.. (2006) Origin of the n-type conductivity of InN: The role of positively charged dislocations. Applied Physics Letters, Vol.88 (No.25). Article: 252109. ISSN 0003-6951

As-grown InN is known to exhibit high unintentional n-type conductivity. Hall measurements from a range of high-quality single-crystalline epitaxially grown InN films reveal a dramatic reduction in the electron density (from low 10(19) to low 10(17) cm(-3)) with increasing film thickness (from 50 to 12 000 nm). The combination of background donors from impurities and the extreme electron accumulation at InN surfaces is shown to be insufficient to reproduce the measured film thickness dependence of the free-electron density. When positively charged nitrogen vacancies (V-N(+)) along dislocations are also included, agreement is obtained between the calculated and experimental thickness dependence of the free-electron concentration.(c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.

Tucker Carlson says Michael Vick should be executed. Is he serious?
(Read article summary)President Obama is grateful that quarterback Michael Vick got a second chance after serving jail time for running a dog-fighting business. But commentator Tucker Carlson – a vehement animal-rights activist – said Vick 'should have been executed' for killing dogs.
'Tis the season when news is where you find it (or make it up). So with Republicans and Democrats back home plotting political strategy and tallying campaign contributions for 2012, we'll hit on something just ever-so-slightly over the edge into the irrelevant and ridiculous.
We're talking here of the reaction to President Obama's approval of the Philadelphia Eagles giving quarterback Michael Vick a second chance after his jail stint for running a particularly cruel dog-fighting operation.
The latest twist is conservative commentator Tucker Carlson's declaration that Vick "should have been executed" for killing dogs. Mr. Carlson was filling in for Sean Hannity on the Fox News Channel.
Carlson didn't suggest the means of execution he had in mind (perhaps being thrown into a pit of angry canines). Here's his full quote:

Industry start date: 2003
Start date with Fund: 2014
The fund offers exposure to US equities with an investment objective of capital appreciation and current income. The fund seeks to achieve its investment objective of capital appreciation by investing in ETFs, and/or securities representing the S&P 500 and the primary sectors of the S&P 500® Index, and market segments that include low volatility and high beta securities. Allocations are based on a proprietary rules-based momentum model that looks to overweight sectors and market segments that experienced stronger recent relative-performance. Current income is achieved through an options strategy, utilizing index-based, out-of-the-money put and call credit spreads. The strategy is driven by implied volatility, as measured by the CBOE Volatility Index (VIX), and seeks to exploit pricing inefficiencies in the S&P 500® Index.
Effective December 8th, 2014 this fund changed its strategy and its subadviser to Rampart Investment Management.
The market price of equity securities may be affected by financial market, industry, or issuer-specific events. Focus on a particular style or on small or medium-sized companies may enhance that risk.
The value of an ETF may be more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities the ETF is designed to track. The costs of owning the ETF may exceed the cost of investing directly in the underlying securities.
Because the fund can invest in other funds, it indirectly bears its proportionate share of the operating expenses and management fees of the underlying fund(s).
Securities in the fund may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies and general economic conditions. Price changes may be short or long term.
The fund's principal investments strategies will result in a consistently high portfolio turnover rate. A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account.
The risk that events negatively affecting a particular industry or market sector in which the fund focuses its investments will cause the value of the fund''s shares to decrease, perhaps significantly. To the extent that the fund invests a significant portion of its portfolio in ETFs representing one or more of the primary sectors of the S&P 500® Index (such as consumer discretionary, energy, healthcare) or in an ETF representing U.S. Treasuries, the fund is more vulnerable to conditions that negatively affect such sectors as compared to a fund that is not significantly invested in such sectors.
Investments in derivatives such as futures, options, forwards, and swaps may increase volatility or cause a loss greater than the principal investment.

Investors should carefully consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of any Virtus Mutual Fund before investing. The prospectus and summary prospectus contains this and other information about the fund. Please contact your financial representative, call 1-800- 243-4361 or visit www.virtus.com to obtain a current prospectus and/or summary prospectus. You should read the prospectus and/or summary prospectus carefully before you invest or send money.
Performance data quoted represents past results. Past performance is no guarantee of future results and current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Average annual total return is the annual compound return for the indicated period. It reflects the change in share price and the reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains. NAV returns do not include the effect of any applicable sales charges. POP and w/CDSC returns include the effect of maximum applicable sales charges.
Returns for periods of less than one year are cumulative total returns.
1 Yields/Distributions: Distribution Yield (at NAV) is calculated by (a) annualizing the latest distribution for fixed income funds or funds less than 1 year old (b) summing all distributions over the preceding 12 months for all other funds, and dividing the NAV on the last business date of the period. SEC Yield represents the net investment income earned by a fund over a 30-day period, expressed as an annual percentage rate based on the fund's public offering share price at the end of the 30-day period. Gross SEC Yield represents the yield if there were no expense reimbursements.
2 Distribution History: Distributions are represented on a cash basis and may be reclassified at year end for tax purposes. The Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes. STCG: Short Term Capital Gain, LTCG: Long Term Capital Gain
3 Risk Statistics: R2 is a statistical measure that represents the percentage of a fund or security's movements that can be explained by movements in a benchmark index. Beta is a quantitative measure of the volatility of a given portfolio to the overall market. Alpha is a risk adjusted measure of an investment's excess return relative to a benchmark. A positive Alpha indicates that the investment produced a return greater than expected for the risk (as measured by Beta) taken. Standard Deviation measures variability of returns around the average return for an investment fund. Higher standard deviation suggests greater risk. Risk Statistics are calculated using 36 monthly returns.
4 Characteristics: For Equity Funds:Trailing P/E: Per-share stock price divided by the latest12-months Earnings per Share; Price/Cash Flow: Per-share stock price divided by the per-share operating cash flow; Price/Book: Per-share stock price divided by the latest 12-month per-share Book Value; 3-Year EPS Growth Rate: Average of earnings per share growth for latest 3-year period. The 3-Year EPS Growth Rate is not a forecast of the fund's performance.
4 Characteristics: For Fixed Income Funds: Duration represents the interest rate sensitivity of a fixed income fund. For example, if a fund's duration is five years, a 1% increase in interest rates would result in a 5% decline in the fund's price. Similarly, a 1% decline in interest rates would result in a 5% gain in the fund's price.
Morningstar Disclosures:
For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating™ based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for a variation in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in an investment category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its 3-, 5-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. Ratings are for the A Shares as shown only; other share classes bear different fees and expenses, which affect performance.
Load-waived A share star ratings do not include any front-end sales load and are intended for those investors who have access to such purchase terms (e.g., plan participants of a defined contribution plan). Not all A share mutual funds for which Morningstar calculates a load-waived A share star rating may actually waive their front-end sales load. Therefore, Morningstar strongly encourages investors to contact their investment professional to determine whether they are eligible to purchase the A share without paying the front load.

It's been a personal preference of mine to completely ignore that usability rule attributed to Jakob Nielsen that active links be the color blue and visited links be purple. When those colors clash with your page design curtins, it's no wonder so many people tossed out underline link decoration to get rid of them. What colors you choose seemed like such a petty, inflexible rule.
So, in this E-consultancy interview with Jakob Nielsen, here was a surprise, when asked about what traditional usability rule he has changed his mind about:
Well there is one where I've changed my recommendation. It's a very specific one but it is how you show hypertext links. I used to say they should be blue, but now it is they should be coloured. That's because in the early days of the web, blue symbolised 'click here'. But now any colour symbolises 'click here'. That's an example of where things can change because of people's experiences.
Link communication is important. I just reviewed a site where I had no idea what text or image was clickable. My mouse was popping wheelies trying to figure out where to go. Visuals are vital to communicating to your visitors. If not black and white rules for blue and purple, what do we do? Visual Interface Design is one idea.
Just sayin'.
Left the House
I went to King of Prussia last night to get together with search marketing folks from Commerce 360 and Avenue Razorfish. Party planner, Liana Evans works so hard at keeping people networking and I owe her my thanks for reminding me to get out the house to do something for myself. Simon Heseltine got the award for driving the farthest. Li will likely blog about it later. She's got some news (and I've been holding in THAT secret for awhile now) too. Well, her and somebody else. That's the only hint I'll give.
The King of Prussia gatherings may turn into a monthly gig. We have so much fun talking shop and industry related stuff, and also getting to know each other. I've had so many fly bys with Chris Boggs over the years but this was the first time I got to sit and really get to know him better. People have come from Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, New Jersey, New York and Virginia (and Ohio, though officially he was working at client's site in PA). Because it's held in a resturant near the gigantic King of Prussia mall, there's every excuse to take a day off or stay the night in one of the hotels nearby so you don't have to rush back to work so early the next day.
Just sayin'.
The Men of SEO
Worth noting, mostly because nobody cares but me, is that in the pond of men at the King of Prussia gig last night, the only women from the local industry to show up were myself and Liana. Personally, the chance to feast my eyes on handsome men all evening was worth all the pretending that I was merely there for the conversation.
Just kiddin'.

The Central Coast is warming up slightly, with temps rising to the mid to high-60's in some areas. There will be above normal temps in the afternoon through Saturday. Expect gusty offshore winds to continue into Thursday, coming in from the northeast at 15 mph. It's going to be sunny for a majority of Wednesday, with patchy morning low clouds and fog in the interior valleys.
For those living in the Santa Ynez Valley, there is a frost advisory in place until 9am Wednesday morning. That means temperatures fall between 28 and 32 degrees.
A low pressure system will approach the Central Coast area by late Saturday for a round of possible rain, breezy winds, and below normal afternoon temperatures. That is expected to continue into early next week.

from the airport
customer rating
Save on parking
Parking so simple, it almost feels like cheating. Pull into the airport's Short Stay car park, meet an airport chauffeur, hand over your keys and your job is done. Your car will be stored in the airport's own Long Stay car park with hourly patrols and CCTV, then the chauffeur will bring it back to the Short Stay car park when you return. 100% of our customers who bought this package would do so again, so who are we to argue?
Reasons to book East Midlands Airport Meet and Greet
- Once you've tried the airport's own Meet and Greet service, you're not likely to park any other way again, and that's official - 100% of our customers agree.
- Absolutely the closest parking you can get at East Midlands airport - the Meet and Greet drop-off point is at the Short Stay car park.
- No need to wait for a transfer bus, just pull up to the Short Stay car park.
- Relax knowing your car will be stored in a car park with hourly patrols, 24-hour CCTV and number plate recognition restricting entry.
East Midlands Airport Meet and Greet Transfers
No transfers will be required as you are met at both ends of your journey, at the Short Stay car park, just a couple of minutes walk to check-in.
Disabled facilities: While the car park is perfect for disabled passengers, since there is no need to transfer to the airport, unfortunately it cannot accept adapted vehicles as its drivers are not insured to move these.
Arrival and Departure Procedures
Arrival: Take the middle lane for the Short Stay car park and Meet and Greet. At the barrier, press the button and take a ticket. The barrier will lift to let you in, then bear left following signs for Pre-booked Meet and Greet. 15 metres on your left, you'll see another barrier. Pull up to this and you'll be met by the Meet and Greet team, who'll show you where to park and tell you how to check-in. You'll need to give them your keys, and they'll attach a tag and put a sticker on your parking ticket. You keep your ticket, but leave the keys with them and your car will be driven to another car park during that day. All you need to do then is walk the short distance to the terminal and catch your flight.
Departure: When you arrive back, go to reception and hand over your barrier ticket with the sticker. They'll use this to match up the stickers with those on your keys and will give you your keys back. They'll also give you a new ticket for the barrier. Pick up your car and then head to the barrier, slot in the new ticket and the barriers will lift and you can just drive on home.
Security at East Midlands Airport Meet and Greet
Your car will be moved to one of the on-airport Long Stay car parks, which are all protected by CCTV, entry and exit barriers, regular patrols and fences. They have all been awarded the Park Mark, a security award for car parks which is accredited by the police.
- Park Mark Award for safer parking
- CCTV coverage of the car park
- Regular staff security patrols

How an RCB fan got lucky...
It is not everyday that you get to meet Indian Cricket Players and more so get an autograph from them. But an RCB Fanatic Fan Mridul Mittal has managed to do and how! He is probably the first Fan to get an autograph of one of the youngest RCBian Cheteshwar Pujara on the RCB Jersey.
Pujara has been the heartthrob of the nation ever since he won the Bangalore test for India against Australia. Hope he fires all cylinders in IPL when he finally comes to the stadium where he made his international debut.
Congratulations Mridul !
The RCB Community thanks you for sharing this pictures with us!
Latest comments
He, along with the fab members of the Fan Advisory Board, plot new schemes to engage with fans and trouble shoot their problems.

Go Mobile: http://mobile.citizen.com Healthy, spooky, jiggly treats fit for Halloween
Sunday, October 28, 2012
I discovered the inspiration for this recipe ages ago in an issue of the Australian edition of Vogue, a magazine I tried to hunt down as often as possible because it had a consistently innovative food section. Though my Jell-O years already were well behind me, I was struck by the cleverness of this recipe, particularly as a healthy snack for kids, and even more particularly at Halloween. |

It is seriously scary to realize just how many carbs I ate on Christmas day (the final verdict is more than I normally eat in two and a half days). I just carelinked my pump data. Last year, I just ate and drew more insulin and injected and didn't add everything together at the end of the day. Ah well. It's a good thing it only happens once a year--we had pizza Christmas eve, and lasagna on the day, plus random cookies throughout.
But I've been having a good Christmas. My sister was…

Well, life is good. I went to see the endo, and talked her out of statins, although she's going to put me on a low dose of ace-inhibitors which is going to make my blood pressure do funky things, because on days that I'm not at the doctor, my blood pressure tends to run low. Sometimes, when I check at the store, I run like 99/56, which technically means that it thinks I'm dead (I know, it doesn't really mean that). So, I'm still debating whether I'm going to fill the prescription.

I just changed my infusion set for myself for the first time.

One of my worries starting on the pump was the adhesive, but so far so good. There's a series of concentric circles where my first set was, like a bullseye on my abdomen, but no problem areas.

Help us workshop our Henry Darger-inspired play with music in New York with a work-in-progress event at the American Folk Art Museum!
About this project
In case you don't want to read everything we have written:
Help us workshop our Henry Darger-inspired play with music in New York with a work-in-progress event at the American Folk Art Museum!
Heather Britt, Peter Adams and Stacy Sims are going to New York for a week-long workshop to learn more about this collaborative work and to perform a work-in-progress first act at the American Folk Art Museum! We made it this far with our VIVIAN GIRLS project with Kickstarter love and your support. We hope you will give again at whatever amount suits you to help us take this work to the next level.
Synopsis of THE VIVIAN GIRLS:
Henry Darger, a reclusive, obsessive outsider artist, has fallen ill. It is a stormy night and the wind is menacing. Henry is terrified of twisters and often features one named Sweetie Pie as a predatory force in his work. Henry can't get up to work and the characters he has been creating, alone, for 40 plus years, become concerned. Annie, the boldest of the girls, steps out of the collage (one of the hundreds Henry has made) and tries to take control of the story. She convinces Myrna and Beatrice, plus Bette and the 6 "stuck together" paper dolls, to head out on their own after Henry is taken to the hospital by a Lady in his building.
Once they are on their own, Annie works to control the story but realizes it is harder than she thinks; that freedom has called up the girls' deepest wants … Myrna wants to be in love, Bea wants to be a boy and Annie wants a mom.
For a moment, the story is blissful. Each girl finding what they want: their opposite. But then Sweetie Pie, a force of nature to be sure, stirs the darkest part of desire and creates an emotional storm for the girls as Henry fights for his breath in a lonely hospital.
In early 1973, reclusive outsider artist Henry Darger became ill. Only upon his death in April of that same year did his epic body of work, focused on the odd and innocent Vivian Girls, become known to the outside world. Since then, Darger's work has mesmerized everyone who has come into contact with it.
A few years ago, I went to see the work again at the American Folk Art Museum in New York. The exhibit was entitled "Dargerism" and included the work of other contemporary artists, like Amy Cutler, who worked in and/or had been inspired by his milieu. Standing in the gallery, I could see how the work might be interpreted for stage. I understood there would be music and dance.
In short, the idea of the VIVIAN GIRLS insisted itself on me. Now, after several years and rewrites and input from smart collaborators, I understand that this play with music lives in the space between the time Henry gets sick and when he dies. This is the time the girls are left to author their own experience. They are no longer held to Henry's image of them nor subject to interpretation by the art world.
To me, this speaks to the broader questions of what happens when we are free to craft our own adolescent narrative? Are we particularly good stewards of our own story and desires? And not that I intend to make this a political piece, I am definitely influenced more and more by my work with girl survivors of trauma and neglect.
Here is how we got to this point:
Flashback to 2009. I hear Peter Adams music under a Heather Britt dance work for the Cincinnati Ballet and know that this is the artist to make the VIVIAN GIRLS sing and this is the women to make them dance.
Cut to 2010. YOU help fund a workshop version of the first act in Cincinnati, Ohio. Michael E. Haney directs an amazing cast. We learn a LOT and I rewrite the play. Here are some clips. If you struggle to open them, use the code word vivian.
Cut to 2011. We make the first round of cuts for the O'Neill National Musical Theatre Conference. We get super stoked. Although we don't proceed to the finals. Dang.
Cut to later in 2011. Thanks to my True Body colleague Liza Zapol, the work becomes known to the American Folk Art Museum and we meet and think "How cool would it be to workshop the new first act in NY and present a work-in-progress event in NY?"
Cut to even later in 2011. Sarah Cameron Sunde, director, agrees to direct/collaborate with us on our NY workshop and Amanda Feldman agrees to produce. So we pick a week to workshop the first act with NY and Cincinnati actors and agree on a date with the American Folk Art Museum.
Cut to today. We ask YOU again to help support this work. We hope you agree that we have been a good steward of your funds as we conspire to make a new and organic theatrical piece in a challenging economy.
Flash forward to May 12, 2012. Thanks to YOU, we have been able to spend a week in rehearsal in New York AND give a work-in-progress performance at the American Folk Art Museum's Lincoln Center gallery space. Hopefully, this will help the work mature and capture the attention of the organization that wishes to shepherd it to a true, real live premiere.
We hope you will join us for another round or come on board for your first round of support on our Vivian Girls adventure.
Thank you in advance.

Click on the "Photos" tab above to see a slide show of JS Giguere's time in the community.
ANAHEIM -- Jean-Sebastien Giguere now minds the net for Toronto. As of Monday morning, he played in two games for his new team, stopping all 60 shots and collecting a pair of shutouts. His appearance in a blue and white sweater with a Maple Leaf across his chest still seems so unfamiliar because for nine seasons he belonged to us.
The Ducks' former masked man was more than our goalie, more than a player who made 429 starts, helped us to 206 victories and put his sternum, stick and glove in front of 11,290 saves; he everyone around him feel like part of the home team.
And for that, Giguere, unlike so many professional athletes who arrive and leave without enriching more than their wallets, won't be forgotten. He will be missed.
He was missed on Friday, when the Ducks' wives and girlfriends held their third Lady Ducks Fashion Show at Pelican Hill. He was to strut down the runway, even tote a man purse that would make too macho an athlete want to model in disguise.
"Anything for charity," Giguere said bashfully during his wardrobe fitting a few weeks ago at Saks Fifth Avenue in South Coast Plaza.
Ducks center Todd Marchant took Giguere's place in the charity event. But Giguere, who was traded on Jan. 31 as part of a seven-player deal, won't be replaced as one of Orange County's most beloved athletes.
After the Ducks signed No. 1 goalie Jonas Hiller to a four-year extension, Giguere had become too expensive a backup goalie to have as a geared-up spectator on the bench. That's the hard part about trades. Bottom lines rarely factor in what a player does when he skates off the ice.
You had to see Giguere emerge from the Honda Center after morning practices. A few dozen fans always waited for the team and Giguere signed every poster, card, sweater, puck and stick for all who came.
You had to watch him before every Christmas, donning a Santa hat, stringing a paper mask around mouth and visiting kids at Children's Hospital of Orange County. Smiling, he did more than poke his head in between hospital curtains at the boys and girls who were so weakened by medication and so sad to see only their parents and doctors and nurses for weeks at a time.
A father himself, Giguere knew how these families felt. His first child, Maxime, was born with blindness in one eye. He and his wife, Kristen, spent several days waiting in surgical and recovery wards. They knew the anxiety, the worry and the exhaustion from all those days they spent praying for their son's sight.
So with this compassion, he made his CHOC visits – as many as he could. He even left autographed photos for the kids who were asleep. He didn't care that these children didn't know who J.S. Giguere was or that they never laced up skates to glide across the ice. He hoped they'd smile, that they'd heal.
Since he joined the Ducks in the 2000-01 season, he did it all. He was a part of two runs to the Stanley Cup Finals. He won the Conn Smythe Trophy as the 2003 NHL's record-setting playoff MVP but was more disappointed than overjoyed because the Ducks had lost a championship to New Jersey.
When the Ducks won the Stanley Cup in 2007, he set his son in the silver chalice and took photos family pictures during the post-game celebration while most of his teammates were showering in champagne in the dressing room.

For my first few batches I've used both dry yeast and smack packs. While I admit the smack packs are way more fun, they're also more expensive and difficult for someone with limited refrigeration abilities (me). Is the general consensus that liquid yeast usually makes a better beer or are there some award winners that use dried yeast? If it is so, are there any techniques I can use with dried yeast to help it come out as good as liquid? BrewOnBoard
Unless you're making something that needs a specific yeast (belgian beers and wits for example) dry yeasts are just fine! People brew award winning beers with dry yeast all the time. Most popular styles work great with them. Pale ales, IPA, stout, porter, brown ale, anything like that. Even with high OG beers, they're great. You don't have to buy a smack pack and make a starter and step it up and all that. You just just buy two or three packs of dry yeast, hydrate them while you brew and pitch 'em in to get your proper cell count. S-04 and S-05 are my two favorite go-to yeasts. One for american styles and one for british styles.
"Science + beer = good!" -Adam Savage
ChshreCat beat me to it!
Primary: Delicious Beer Secondary: Delicious Beer, Delicious Cider Kegeratin': Delicious Draft Beer Bottled: Delicious Bottled Beer and Cider
Danstar Nottingham and SafAle US-05 are both excellent yeasts. Rehydrating the yeast can help reduce lag time. But I never rehydrate. I just pitch the dry yeast right in. I actually switched to using dry yeasts about a year ago because of the cost difference compared to the smack packs. Unless I'm looking for a particularly esoteric yeast characteristic, I use either Nottingham or US-05 for just about every beer I brew.
After learning about osmotic shock, I ALWAYS rehydrate my yeast to give them the best chance. But back when I just sprinkled it on the wort I never had any problems. I just figured that it's only one easy extra step and it gives me healthier yeast.
My brewery is the place for dry yeast (and yours can be too!). It's all I use, and I swear by it. Most beers get US-05 or nottingham. Wheat beers will get a wheat yeast (like WB-06) Some beer gets a specialized yeast, like K-97, S-33, or windsor. I have yet to use liquid yeast and have yet to be dissatisfied with a batch based on yeast choice.
Check out my Homebrewery Virtual Tour! Who says you can't brew all-grain indoors? Brewing 2.5 gal batches with a 2gal cooler MLT in my cramped apartment. Pictures coming soon!Ask me about my Keezer/2.5 gal brew setup!
List me as a 90% dry yeast brewer. I've made over 100 batches and most of them have been with dry. It's a rare occasion when I buy liquid and that has been just for very specialized brews.
Rehydrating is just adding warm water, don't make a starter with dry yeasts. Also, I think you have run up to a big place where new brewers get confused. In the not to distant past most of the good yeasts were hard to come by in dry form, so liquid was the way to go for quality beer. That is still be professed by a lot of people/brew shops, but it is no longer the case. I would venture a guess that most of the seasoned brewers on this board go to US-04, US-05, and Notty for 95% of their brewing. It is only to experiment or do some of the beers where the flavor comes from the yeast that they go back to liquid.
