Best Coffee Grinder | Top Reviews 2015

Espresso Grinders, Burr Espresso Grinders, Burr Grinder, Burr Grinders, Espresso Grinders, Conical Burr Grinders
In this video, we learn to clean a coffee grinder with Chef Bikram. To start off, grab slightly little bit of rice and pour it into the grinder. Then, put the lid on and pulse it. When finished, pour out the mixture and your grinder will be clear and have no aroma left in it. It's also possible to rinse it out with water after you do that, so there aren't any crumbs leftover. This is a great technique to clear your grinder in only a few quick seconds, as a substitute of getting to completely wash it each and every time you want it to be cleaned!
Enter the Kyocera Ceramic Espresso Grinder. Use this handbook burr grinder to quietly and exactly create your excellent cup or pot of espresso. It's adjustable, so you may make your grounds as effective as flour or good and coarse to your Aeropress. The ceramic materials is tough - close to the hardness of diamonds - so you recognize it will grind the way you want it to and can last for years to return. This grinder may also be used to grind inexperienced tea or spices, and the 100-gram glass container can store your espresso between grinds and is dishwasher protected.
Burr grinders extract much more flavor from the coffee bean than electric blade type grinders. Plus the espresso simply tastes, and smells higher while you grind the beans by hand! ( When you love the scent of recent floor coffee, attempt grinding some espresso around a campfire!) To grind your beans, a very good old style coffee grinder will do in addition to a modern electrical version. To ensure optimal taste, it is important that the espresso mill is adjustable for various grades of grinding and that the coffee isn't heated throughout grinding.
The Black & Decker SmartGrind blade coffee grinder (Model CBG100S) is the most effective blade grinder we now have found. Interval. Except you make espresso and wish very tremendous grinds, you don't want a conical burr grinder for drip espresso. You need a robust, precise blade grinder that will not battle and heat the beans. We are glad with the Black & Decker SmartGrind. It has a robust and exact motor (a hundred thirty watts, evaluate that to most inexpensive blade grinders that solely have 60 watts). The espresso beans do not get crushed however quickly cut in order that the espresso just isn't heated during the grinding course of, negatively impacting flavor.
So what's the difference between a burr and blade grinder? A burr grinder has enamel that lower the coffee beans in a single pass, with out overheating, nor destroying them. A burr grinder has completely different settings and lets you choose the kind of grind (very nice to coarse) desired. That is what business espresso grinders do. A blade grinder has a rotating knife that cuts the bean repeatedly (until pulverized, if kept on lengthy enough, or in case you have a weak motor). Weak blade grinders (underneath 100 watts) warmth the espresso beans, causing taste loss.
Conical Burr Grinders preserve the most flavor and can grind very positive with the best consistency. The intricate design of the conical metal burrs allows for a high gear reduction to slow down the grinding velocity under 500 rpm. The slower the velocity the less warmth is imparted to the ground espresso thus preserving the maximum amount of aroma. As a result of big selection of grind settings, conical burr grinders are ideal for all sorts of coffee tools akin to; espresso machines, drip espresso makers, percolators, French press and may even grind additional high quality for the preparation of Turkish espresso.
Coffee tastes greatest if the beans are floor fresh earlier than they are brewed. With a wide variety of countertop espresso grinders in the marketplace, it is no problem for home cooks to grind beans on demand. Most of the reasonably priced grinders, which generally cost round $20, employ propeller-type blades that work like a blender, actually chopping the beans as they spin. But our self-imposed value cap of $50 did allow us to incorporate a number of low-finish burr grinders (a fancier type of machine that works like a motorized pepper mill). We purchased 10 standard fashions from seven producers and 30 kilos of espresso beans.
When coffee is floor, the surface area will increase drastically, exposing the oils and dissolvable particles. The results - and the style - will vary primarily based on which technique your grinder uses to pulverize the beans. There are the tremendous-consistent conical burr grinders which were round because the mortar and pestle went out of favor. There are flat burr grinders which have a nasty behavior of heating the espresso as they grind it. And there is the lowly blade grinders that may chop your espresso into a mixture of huge chunks and super-wonderful powder.
In my cafe, we use industrial burr grinders which might be very consistent. At home, I exploit a great high quality blade grinder and normally give you good outcomes, particularly if I am grinding more coarsely (drip coffee, french press, etc). I only actually get issues with inconsistent grind when grinding finely for espresso. I additionally discover that should you shake the blade grinder (nearly like a martini shaker), the grinds combine better throughout the process and you get more consistency. That's just what I've discovered although, and you ought to be very cautious when doing this.
Of special historic coffee curiosity, the 1773 Boston Tea Party was actually planned at the Green Dragon, a Boston coffeehouse. A toastmaster coffee grinder will also be used to quickly grind some herbs and spices if you end up moderately in a hurry. Naturally, there are different manufacturers of espresso bean grinders our there in the market right this moment, however upon getting figured out the options which are necessary to you, it will be simpler so that you can assign a funds and learn the way a lot you might be keen to spend for a grinder. For just mere dollars you may flip your everyday espresso ingesting right into a memorable coffee-house expertise.

Jones' strip and recovery at the Bears' 13 led to Adkins' 4-yard keeper on third down, helping forge a 17-all tie and erasing Missouri State's only lead. The Demons moved ahead on their next series when Adkins found a wide-open Shakeir Ryan on the left side of the field and the true freshman flanker from Lafayette-Northside outran defenders down the Bears' sideline to complete a 51-yard strike that made the difference, even after Missouri State blocked the PAT with 2:28 left in the third period.
NSU's defense made two big stops in the final quarter. The Bears had to settle for a 44-yard field goal try, which failed with 11:35 remaining, and then lost it on downs at the NSU 20 with 3:27 to go. The Demons got one first down, punted with 25 seconds left and the losers didn't threaten to score in the waning seconds.
The outcome successfully launched Jay Thomas' head coaching career with Northwestern and was the Demons' first road win in a season opener since a 27-23 comeback victory at Louisiana-Monroe in 2005.
"We just hung tough through the ups and downs," said Thomas. "Our guys battled hard. Theirs did too. We made some plays with the ball and when the game was on the line, our defense really came through. It's a sweet win, coming on the road, and coming the way it did."
Adkins used 10 different receivers as he threw for 233 yards on 24-37 aim, despite two interceptions, at the Missouri State 8 in the first half and in the Bears' end zone in the fourth quarter. The Demons ran 81 plays to 68 for the Bears and outgained them 405-312, working against a Missouri State defense that returned 10 starters.
The Demons kept the Bears on their heels with the rapid-fire, no-huddle offense throughout the first half, but only a 44-yard Chris Moore field goal as the clock expired provided a 10-7 edge for the visitors. NSU had a 200-89 yardage advantage, and ran 42 plays to 23 by Missouri State in the first two quarters.
Northwestern crossed midfield on six of seven possessions, but came up empty on four of them, with the worst miss coming midway through the first quarter when the Bears' Andrew Beisel intercepted Adkins at the 8. Missouri State didn't make a first down until after the visitors took a 7-0 lead on Daniel Taylor's 30-yard run on a delay over right tackle 40 seconds into the second quarter.
Afterward, the Bears roared downfield on their only extended series of the half, moving 75 yards in 11 plays, converting a fourth-and-inches at the NSU 2 on a quarterback sneak by Kierra Harris, who repeated the play on the next snap for a 1-yard score to knot the score at 7-all.
Moore, the Demons' new placekicker, hammered the go-ahead 44-yarder at the halftime horn after a 7-snap, 24-yard drive ending the second quarter. The Demons already had 111 rushing yards at that point, 54 by Taylor on six runs and 43 on 11 carries from Rob Walker. Adkins took advantage of a bend-but-don't break Bears' defense, which returned 10 starters from last year, and completed 13 of 18 for 89 yards before intermission.
Missouri State cashed in on a pair of personal foul penalties sandwiched around a 53-yard bomb from Harris to Julian Burton, and Harris again sneaked in from inches out to push the Bears ahead 14-10 less than two minutes into the third quarter. NSU then had its' first 3-and-out offensive series, an ominous shift in momentum to open the second half.
A Lesley Deamer sack helped limit Missouri State to a 42-yard Austin Wilmer field goal on the ensuing series as the Bears bumped the lead to 17-10 with 8:57 to go in the third period. But Jones' fumble recovery, which came two plays after a Missouri State goal line stand at the 1, flipped the momentum again and triggered the two-TD turnaround that carried NSU to victory.

GOLDEN, Colo. (AP) -- A 23-year-old man has pleaded guilty to setting fire to a suburban Denver house when nine people were inside.
No one was injured in the fire in Lakewood in July.
The Jefferson County District Attorney's Office says Lucas Jay Piper entered his plea Friday to charges of attempted first-degree murder, first-degree arson and conspiracy to commit arson.
He faces a prison term of 16 to 36 years at his May 13 sentencing hearing.
Police say Piper and his girlfriend were at the house with acquaintances when he was injured while one of the other people was demonstrating a "fire twirling" performance.
Police say Piper became angry and returned to the house several hours later and set it afire.

No seriously, he did. A day after Georgia Gov. Sonny Perdue led prayers for rain, there were huge storms in Northern Georgia that dumped an inch of rain. Perdue declared:
"We're thankful for the rain and hopefully it's the beginning of more. … Frankly, it's great affirmation of what we asked for."
Of course, this might be a slight problem:
The rainfall was likely not enough the ease the drought, forecasters said.
"The ground probably sucked it all up," said Vaughn Smith, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Peachtree City. "The ground is so dry, I seriously doubt if any of the lakes rose any."
So apparently, God is just a tease. This may be an even bigger problem:
In Tennessee's Marion County, the roof of a Baptist church was heavily damaged in the storms, said Jeremy Heidt of the Tennessee Emergency Management Agency. Three children were hurt by flying glass and were taken to hospitals, said Heidt.
Maybe there was a gay person at that church or something.

Miracle Learning Centre employs the " triple A " teaching method
– Miracle LC incorporates motivational techniques into fun, interactive lessons that build up speed and accuracy in problem solving. Students grow in self-belief, and approach problem sums confidently.
– With the right attitude, interest in mathematics can be fostered, and at Miracle LC, we strongly believe in (and have observed that!) interest in a subject strongly correlates to aptitude and performance.
– Students with the right Attitude and Aptitude can then be stretched to achieve mathematical mastery. Miracle LC's In-House programmes systematically guide students from P1 to P6, providing students with challenging questions at every step of the way.
Our guided worksheets encourage self-learning. This allows students to develop critical/logical thinking, model drawing and problem sum interpretation.
Our science programme promises to be more than just knowledge.
At Miracle LC, we carry out experiments that demonstrate scientific concepts. Instead of spoon feeding answers, we employ appropriate questioning techniques that lead students to state observations, predict outcomes and arrive at a more accurate scientific understanding.
Students also present projects on science-related researchthatare not syllabus bound. By opening up the spectrum of topics available, students in Miracle LC study the science they WANT to, and not the science they are FORCED to.
Answers for structured questions need to explained clearly and systematically. Students tend to take shortcuts or miss out important keywords.
Our systematic method to answer structured questions highlights the keywords, and trains students to look for clues in the question, in order to apply scientific facts to answer in a clear and concise manner.

"This is an advanced business elective," Jones said. "The subject matter addresses the free trade agreement between the two countries, which has been in the works for years, but has just passed in the United States. My students have been researching this topic all semester. They will interact with their counterparts at the Universitaria, who have been researching the same topic throughout their college careers. My students and the Colombian students will have a roundtable discussion/debate on the agreement."
Throughout the semester, Jones' students have interacted with the Colombian students through video conferencing. Adam Porche, a senior from Lafayette, is looking forward to meeting those students in person.
"It's such a big move both academically and personally," Porche said. "I'm most excited about meeting the students. It's going to be interesting to interact with students my age who are doing the same thing as me and learn how they live their college experience."
The class sparked Porche's interest in international commerce as he and classmates studied exchange rates, business practices and other aspects of international trade. The debates will also be a highlight.
"We'll hear their views and they'll hear our views and we'll talk about trade restrictions and how it affects the economies of both our countries," he said.
While in Cartagena, Jones and Abney plan to sign an agreement on behalf of Northwestern State with the Universitaria to offer dual enrollment classes for the Colombian students and develop exchange opportunities for students at both universities. They also plan to meet with officials at the Univesidad Libre, Sede Cartagena.
The majority of the funding for student airfare was raised through donations, with housing and meals provided by the Universitaria Tecnologico Comfenalco. Jones said not only would he like to offer this course every fall, but would like to host a contingency of Colombian students at Northwestern State every spring.
"Studying abroad as an undergraduate was one of the best experiences of my life, so I hope this develops into a strong program to provide students with an international learning experience," Jones said.

text: We like the Sony Xperia P a lot. It looks nice, is well built and offers a great set of core features, with dual-core performance, 8MP camera and sharp display, all wrapped up in a modest sized handset. Add in some unexpected extras like microHDMI connectivity and NFC and you're onto a winner. It's not without its issues but we think this is a cracking option for those looking for a small but capable Android phone.

For Oscar lovers like me, the usual nail-biting anticipation that accompanies the annual Academy Awards is all the greater this year. Not only are there more films up in the category of Best Picture, but the rules by which that movie is selected have also changed. In a curious case of life imitating art, the British government is also looking at reforming its electoral system along similar lines. In both cases, the big question on everyone's mind is this: Who benefits?...

Monte Carlo Methods in Finance by Dr. Jörg Kienitz
In the seminar we discuss the application of the Monte Carlo method. We furthermore show how to implement it in an object oriented fashion using VBA. Choosing this language is motivated by the fact that Excel is the most widespread application. In addition we give hints how to set up the method in C++.
It is essential to cover the implementation to fully grasp the implications of derivatives pricing using Monte Carlo simulation. Starting from a simple Black / Scholes / Merton dynamic and simple option payoffs, we show how to extend the application to cover complex models and payoffs. For example we show the implementation of the Heston model together with the QE scheme and apply it to the pricing of path-dependent options but also jump diffusion processes, Lévy processes or bridge simulation.
The source code will be made available such that further practice at your own location is possible. The code could also serve as a starting point for a proprietary application.
Jörg Kienitz is Head of Quantitative Analysis. This team is part of the Treasury department of Deutsche Postbank AG, Germany. He is responsible for model development, derivatives pricing, structured products pricing and asset allocation models. Jörg is an experienced presenter. He trained finance professionals on mathematical subjects like Monte Carlo methods for several years. He also has extensive academic experience lecturing at university level including the universities of Bonn (math) and Duisburg (finance).
Jörg authored several papers on mathematical and computational finance. He also is the co-author of the book �Monte Carlo Object Oriented Frameworks in C++� (together with Daniel J. Duffy) which will be published by Wiley in the first quarter of 2009.

My Culinary Hobby - 05/16/14
My wife and I like to eat out. Lately when we're able to get away we've been making an effort to try new restaurants. It has led to some interesting meals. A few weeks back we had dinner at The Southern downtown. I'd been there for lunch but this dinner was my first. The place is known for steaks and oysters but I just wasn't in the mood. I got a fried chicken dish with sides that included some type of greens (which I normally don't eat) and an awesome mac and cheese. It had a number of different cheeses.
Taking my wife's advice, I ate them together. What an explosion of flavor. It was fabulous. We need some inspiration. Tell me about some of your favorite places.

LEE'S SUMMIT, Mo. (AP) -- The Royals could have used Mickey Cobb's ring last night. Cobb was Kansas City's long-time athletic trainer. He says some crooks have ripped-off his 1985 World Series Championship ring. Cobb tells WDAF-TV the ring is a good luck charm. He had hoped to wear it as the Royals opened the American League Division Series against Houston. The Royals lost to the Astros in Game 1, 5-2.
LOS ANGELES (AP) -- That's a wrap -- for filming at L.A. public schools. The Los Angeles Unified School District has temporarily banned movie and TV filming on campuses. The move follows a report that a porno was shot at Hamilton High School, including a scene featuring public nudity in the school's front parking lot. KNBC-TV also reports some productions caused parking problems for teachers and led to classes being relocated or cancelled sports practices. The district has earned an estimated $10 million from filming over the past five years.
TACOMA, Wash. (AP) -- Hey buddy, can you spare some pandas? That was the gist of a message sent by Washington state lawmakers to Chinese President Xi Jinping (shee jihn-peeng). The Chinese leader visited the U.S. last month, including a stop in Washington state. State lawmakers gave the Chinese president a letter asking that his nation consider lending pandas to the Pacific Northwest. One state senator tells the News Tribune in Tacoma that it could take a year or more for pandas to arrive if the Chinese want to proceed. Only four zoos in the U.S. have pandas, including the National Zoo in the nation's capital.
ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -- In this case, Elvis isn't the king of rock-and-roll. He's a king cobra snake and now Elvis is back. A woman in the Orlando, Florida, area heard hissing coming from under a clothes dryer in her garage. The sound was from a king cobra snake that had been missing for more than a month. Three animal control officers used special tongs to capture the 10-foot-long serpent. The snake was returned to owner Mike Kennedy, who lives about a-half mile from where it was found. Kennedy has also pleaded not guilty to a misdemeanor charge for failing to immediately report the snake missing.

Here's A Step-Around To Get Inhibitors Expertise
By mile1card on Feb 13, 2014 03:32 AM
Myelofibrosis is a bone marrow illness characterized by abnormal creation of reticulin and collagen fibers. Although fibrosis can be the end result of quite a few hematologic and nonhematologic conditions, the phrase MF is generally used in reference possibly to key MF or to the very similar conditions evolving from the two other classic Philadelphia-chromosome-adverse myeloproliferative neoplasms: polycythemia vera and crucial thrombocythemia.In accordance to epidemiological research, the incidence of PMF could be as large as one.five for every a hundred,000. Other research present that by the stop of the second ten years immediately after PV or ET diagnosis, up to ten%15% of selleck inhibitor scenarios may rework to secondary MF. In MF, the fibrotic alterations look to be cytokine-stimulated reactions sustained by multilineage clonal cellular proliferation. The scientific signs of MF consist of splenomegaly owing to extramedullary hematopoiesis leukocytosis and thrombocytosis, with predisposition to thrombotic occasions, owing to clonal cellular proliferation impacting generally megakaryocytes and granulocytes cytopenias, a afterwards obtaining that worsens with the development of fibrosis and constitutional signs or symptoms, most probable induced by abnormal stages of circulating cytokines. In the past decade, the function of Janus kinases in intracellular pathways has claimed the focus of several myeloproliferative neoplasm scientists. JAKs are nonreceptor tyrosine kinases that mediate the transmission of cytokine- and growth-aspect-induced intracellular indicators. About fifty% of sufferers with PMF present with the JAK2 acquire-of-purpose mutation, resulting in a constitutively activated JAK-signal transducer and activator of transcription pathway. In flip, the activated JAK-STAT pathway promotes the transcription of quite a few genes, for cytokines, fibrogenic
selleckchem variables, and angiogenic variables, between a broad selection of pro-proliferative and anti-apoptotic gene products. Abnormal manufacturing of professional-inflammatory cytokines may possibly alone lead to JAKSTAT activation, developing a vicious cycle. Amid patients with MF, about five% are JAK2 adverse but as an alternative have a get of purpose mutation in the thrombopoietin receptor gene, ensuing in cytokine-unbiased JAK-STAT activation. Another modest team of sufferers with MF have neither of these mutations but
selleck chemical carry other mutations 34 related with constitutive JAK2 activation. Additionally, individuals with MF in the absence of any recognized mutation frequently show JAK2 overactivity. JAK1 also performs a purpose in MF: a modern analyze shown JAK1 hyperactivity in MF people, most likely as a consequence of cytokine hyperstimulation. Collectively, these info implicate JAK1 and JAK2 as crucial parts in the puzzle posed by the molecular pathogenesis of MF.

Please click on Opinion number to view entire opinion.
|Opinion #
|The Honorable William J. Howell
Speaker, House of Delegates
Preliminary subdivision plat must show all sections or phases of development at time local planning commission approves plat to invoke five-year period of validity. County planning department approval of subdivision construction plat showing phased or sectioned development does not operate as governmental approval as phased or sectioned development where approved preliminary plat did not show such development; § 15.2‑2241(5) is not applicable to such plat. Section 15.2‑2260(G) adds to existing validity period for preliminary plats for multiple phase developments where final plat is recorded; when such preliminary plat does not show phased or sectioned development, five-year validity period is not cumulative. Approved preliminary plat is extended for one five-year period from date of latest recorded subdivision plat of property. Underlying preliminary subdivision plat 'for a multiple phase development' remains immune from subdivision and zoning ordinance changes for period of five years from time approved final subdivision plat 'for all or a portion of the property of a multiple phase development is recorded.' Section 15.2‑2260(G) applies only to underlying preliminary plat that was approved as multiple phase development. Deadlines in §§ 15.2‑2241 and 15.2‑2260 or enacted in local ordinances must be strictly construed; locality may not waive or extend such deadlines.
|The Honorable H. Roger Zurn, Jr.
Treasurer, County of Loundon
Responsibility for county treasurer to receive any asset forfeiture funds, which must be held and used only for law-enforcement purposes. Sheriff may not establish separate account or 'treasury' for such funds separate and apart from locality he serves. No requirement in Guidelines of Department of Criminal Justice Services that asset forfeiture funds be paid only to law-enforcement agencies, but such funds may be used for law-enforcement purposes only.

Commissioner of the Revenue for Spotsylvania County
Real property rezoned to more intensive use at request of owner must be removed from land use program and roll-back taxes assessed. Agricultural real property, which has been (1) rezoned at owner's request to more intensive use, (2) removed from land use program, and (3) assessed roll-back taxes subsequently must be rezoned to less intensive use before it can be eligible to receive land use taxation again. Real property with intensive zoning may qualify for land use assessment and taxation if local assessing official determines that it meets criteria.

Contrail Watching for Kids
Science Project: Contrail Watching for Kids
|Web Id: P3
|Purpose: Contrails are long clouds made by high-flying aircraft. Because kids are so good at watching clouds, they can be easily taught to identify contrails.
|Age Range: 6 – 10
|Time Required: Young children can observe and report on contrails in only a few minutes a day.
Because kids are natural sky watchers, they are curious about both clouds and contrails. It is likely that when contrails are present that young children will notice and pay more attention to them than adults. Here are some basic facts that will interest them:
Kids know that some clouds signal rain and other mean fair weather. They need to know that contrails are actually manmade clouds and that they can cause measurable changes in the temperature far below where they live and go to school.
|Project Links:
Real Time Data Source:
MODIS Rapid Response System. Use the highest resolution images to look for contrails.
MY NASA DATA Source:
A related parameter of interest in the LAS is Atmosphere, Clouds, Cloud Coverage, Monthly Cloud Coverage for Cirrus (ISCCP).
Project Ideas:
1. Contrail Identification. Young students should learn the differences between natural clouds and contrails. They should learn the three most basic kinds of contrails: (1) short and transient, (2) long and persistent or (3) spreading. They can find out more about contrail identification by visiting the S'COOL Cloud Chart: Contrails and GLOBE Contrail Resources.
2. Contrail Calendar. Young students can easily add contrail observations to a daily cloud calendar. They might even consider a separate Contrail Calendar. The calendar can be a pocket notebook or a calendar with plenty of white space for each day. If a notebook is used, the student should print the day, month and year at the top of each page. For more ideas, see Science Project 1: Clouds for Kids.
3. Contests. Kids love contests. You can motivate young students to observe contrails by organizing a contest for the highest number of contrails that are observed in a given week or month.
4. Science Fairs. Young students who make a detailed Contrail Calendar for a month or more have the ingredients for a good science fair project.
Analysis Ideas:
Observe the temperature cooling that occurs when a contrail passes in front of the sun and shades the ground.
Related Projects:
The GLOBE Program
The CERES S'COOL Project
Elementary GLOBE
1. What makes contrails?
2. Are contrails formed of water droplets or ice crystals?
3. Why are some contrails very short?
4. Why do you think some contrails spread across the sky?
Going Further:
For more information about contrail watching, see Science Project 4. Contrail Studies. Advanced younger students may be able to advance to that project.
Students who have a digital camera can be encouraged to make photographs of contrails and to even make a digital scrapbook of contrail photos. Such photos are ideal for science fair projects.

I saw people in bikinis today. People. In. Bikinis.
Friends… apparently it's time. Granted, I live in Los Angeles. It's SunnySunTown.
Just a few days ago I was eager and ready for summer. Summer is great, right!? Well… I was mostly thinking about watermelon, picnics, and late night tacos. I was NOT thinking about bikinis. I'm not ready to think about bikinis. I'm medium ready to think about tankinis… and that's about as far as it goes.
I tend to have really strange reactions to seeing people in bikinis. I make muffins. It's sort of a knee-jerk reaction. People are wearing very little clothes in public? Right… right. I'll be right back. I have to go make a dozen, and eat at least two muffins. (brb. no bigs)
I want to pack these muffins with as much flavor as possible.
In my kitchen, flavor generally starts with browned butter.
The process of browning butter takes the cold stick of yellow butter, and makes it a golden brown, nutty smelling, butter liquid.
It is divinity.
I made simple sugar fragrant and utterly lovely by adding fresh vanilla bean.
I split a vanilla bean, scraped out the seeds and rubbed it into granulated sugar. I used my clean fingers. This pretty much creates the best perfume ever.
Next flavor? Espresso!
Instant espresso powder is one of my secret weapons in the kitchen. …I'll throw it in the eyes on any burglar that breaks in my house.
It also adds an amazing depth to chocolate desserts. Brownies and chocolate cakes are brilliant with just a touch of instant espresso powder re-hydrated in a bit of hot water.
In these muffins, the espresso powder isn't hidden behind dreamy chocolate. The coffee flavor is combined with browned butter and vanilla sugar to create… well, a dang lovely breakfast muffin batter.
I filled the muffin cups halfway with the vanilla, brown butter batter… then I stirred the espresso mixture into the remaining batter and topped off the muffin cups. Yea… vanilla and coffee in these humble little muffins. No biggie.
Streusel and cinnamon too! It wouldn't be coffee cake without a streusel.
These are good thinking and planning muffins. Grab your calender and coffee… settle in. Avoid any and all thoughts about bikinis.
Or! Put on a pair of cowboy boots and a little dress and take these muffins for brunch times. Totally the right move.
These muffins are tender and flavorful. The coffee flavor is alluring and not too sweet. They're like little cupcakes you can totally get away with enjoying in the morning. It's just good breakfast eating.
Coffee Coffee Cake Muffins
makes 12 muffins
10 Tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons whole milk
2 large eggs
2 teaspoon vanilla extract or 1 vanilla bean
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons istant espresso powder mixed with 1 1/2 tablespoons warm water
For the Topping
3 Tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Put a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin pan with paper or foil liners.
Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Keep an eye on the butter. Melt and cook down the butter until little brown bits appear in the pan. The crackling will subside and butter will begin to brown fairly quickly after that. Keep a close eye. Remove from heat.
If using vanilla bean, split the vanilla bean down the center, scrape the seeds out, and in a small bowl, rub the vanilla beans into the granulated sugar. I used my fingers and it worked like a charm. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together milk, eggs, and vanilla. Add the brown butter and stir to combine.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl Add milk and butter mixture all at once, and stir gently to combine.
Divide half of the batter among muffin cups. Stir the espresso and water mixture into the remaining batter. Divide the espresso batter between the twelve muffin cups.
To make the topping combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and rub together with your fingertips until crumbly. Sprinkle evenly over the batter in the cups.
Bake until golden and crisp and a wooden pick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 18-20 minutes. Keep an eye on them… they dry out quickly. Cool in pan on a rack for 15 minutes then remove from the pan. Serve warm or at room temperature.

I am SO not ready for bikinis………. but I am completely ready for these muffins!
These look awesome! I always feel like coffee cake falls sort of short flavor-wise, but these look like they are so deeply FULL of flavor. Can't wait to try them. Totally agree about bikinis. Can't even think about it. Not that my thighs are hidden by a one piece or a tankini either – just can't think about public near-nakedness at this point. . . . I need muffins too. LOTS of muffins.

Hi Joy! As always I love this post and I am going to make these yummy looking breakfast friendly cupcake like coffee cakes this weekend. I just thought you should know something is wrong with your coding at the end of the recipe there is [/printbale] and when I clicked the print link there was nothing there but your copyright. I'm guessing this has to do with the misspelling of printable…
Also it must be said that I pre-ordered your cookbook back in January and I have made your buttermilk cheddar jalapeno biscuits a bazillion times…per request from my family! Totally awesome. :)
Great muffins and I pick boots and a dress over a bikini any day. Thankfully I live in Ohio….we are a few months away from bikini season…thank goodness!!!
Bikinis?! – urgh, is it that time already?!
& weddings too. Almost as scary in my opinion as you know you will be immortalised in the happy couple's photos forever more. Bingo wings and all!
The stress of summer body prep makes me want these muffins even more!
These look awesome, and this is a hilarious post!
Oh my goodness, these loook absolutely delicious!!!!! Thank you!
You are seriously on a roll at the moment. I look forward to your posts so much.
I am definitely definitely making this tonight.
Joy, you rock!
Oh lovely!
May I just suggest a little respelling? 'Streusel' is one of those German words I really like that always get mispelled ;) we would have quite a bit of fun pronouncing your versions ;)
Love what you do!
Can't wait to try them!!! Fortunately it is Autumn here in South Africa and bikini season is over. Relief! My beach game plan generally involves big hat, big sunnies and a cute cover-up… Roll on Winter – Boots and coats are a lot less pressure.
These look perfect!
Growing up in Florida I totally know the pressure of bikini season, despite having lets say, a healthy athletic body…it wasnt till much later that I realized how nice a body it was. Now it's time I appreciate it and not wait till I'm 60 to again look back. Coffee cakes, yet another winner. After my short sugar break… Will be on it.
I'm definitely more of a cowboy boot & muffin person than a bikini person.
Hot dang, I need to make these.
I also need a brunch to attend that necessitates a little dress and cowboy boots.

We read the Hobbit at school, a lovely picture book, took us the whole year to get thru but I've recently re-read it especially after hearing Richard Armitage was cast as the head dwarf.
I think, as said above, the Hobbit is a more concise story and putting it across the two films they will flesh it out a lot. I mean Legolas isn't mentioned at all, however that doesn't mean he wasn't there with his father the Elvenking (David Tenant *squee*) during that part of the story and during the battle which obviously we didn't see any of but will definitely be shown in great detail in the film.
I can't imagine all the dwarf songs will be put in, maybe just one and some kind of dwarf theme like that love to have in movie soundtracks

How To Be Sick. ~ Toni Bernhard
Life is tough but freedom is possible. A guide to the first and second noble truths.
We're all subject to suffering, stress, anguish, and dissatisfaction. This is the essence of the Buddha's first noble truth. Given life's uncertainty and unpredictability, how could it be otherwise?
When I first encountered this teaching (many years before I became chronically ill), I didn't feel disheartened; I felt relieved. Finally, someone was describing this life in a way that fit a good portion of my experience. What a relief to know it wasn't just me or just my life! Do you know a single person, healthy or sick, who has not experienced suffering, stress, anguish, and dissatisfaction in his or her life?
The first noble truth connects me to others in a profound way. The circumstances of our lives may result in slightly different experiences of this noble truth, but underneath the surface, we know what other's suffering, stress, anguish, and dissatisfaction feel like because we experience them ourselves.
Take dissatisfaction. Aren't you dissatisfied with some of the circumstances of your life? Your dissatisfaction may involve the "big questions" (Does my life have meaning? Can we survive global warming?). It may result from the stresses of everyday life (tension in a relationship, difficulty on the job). It may be due to mundane discomforts and irritations (the dog barking next door, the lost sock in the dryer). Think about your life. Notice how there is an ongoing effort (subtle or intense) to adjust its circumstances to be more to your liking.
With an "if only" mentality, we tend to deny the presence of this dissatisfaction. "If only I had an iPad, I'd never want another electronic device." "If only the Giants would win the World Series, I won't care if they win another baseball game." Sometimes I think,
"If only I weren't sick, I'd be happy."
Who are we kidding? If all our "if only's" came to pass, we'd soon find they didn't bring lasting satisfaction. An iPad is no fun without all those cool apps. Can't the Giants win it all two years in a row? As for me, I'd be glad not to be sick, but my life would still have its share of suffering and stress.
The Second Noble Truth. The good news from the Buddha is that we can work with our minds to alleviate this suffering and its sisters (stress, anguish, and dissatisfaction). Notice I said "work with our minds." The Buddha's focus was on the mind (that's why he's often called a great psychologist). We were born into bodies and they get injured, sick, and old. The Buddha endured great bodily pain at times, but he did so without suffering in the mind.
In the second noble truth, the Buddha said that the origin of this suffering and its sisters is our self-focused desire or craving to get our way. He didn't mince words when he told his monks: people suffer when they're not getting what they want or when they're getting what they don't want.
But he also taught that we can alleviate this suffering by bringing it into conscious awareness (called "mindfulness" in Buddhist practice) where we have a choice. We can hold onto our fruitless desire to control those circumstances that we cannot change (the inability to afford all those iPad apps, the lack of control over the Giant's win-loss record, the desire for an immediate return to full health). The result: suffering, stress, anguish. Or, we can let go of that desire and accept our life as it is.
Don't confuse acceptance with resignation. I haven't given up looking for treatments that might improve my health. But I have learned to open my heart and mind to how my life is right now, sickness included. When I do this, a calm acceptance arises and I feel at peace with my life. It's a taste of freedom (a taste of the freedom some call awakening or enlightenment).
I work on bringing into awareness the self-focused desire or craving that underlies each feeling of dissatisfaction in my life. Then I try to make the conscious choice to let go of what I cannot change.
I still sometimes hold onto the thought, "If only I weren't sick, I'd be happy." After all, I'm a work in progress, not an enlightened being. But at least I know the drill.

I really really really struggle with this, regarding physical health. I get the acceptance of the iPad apps and the Giants, but it is so hard to just BE in pain. I try to keep faith that there is a purpose to it that I just don't get. Is that a part of the Buddhist path? That suffering has a "reason"? Or is it just unpredictability/chaos, and we have to keep finding the calm in it?
Toni: I have friends with serious health challenges who raved about your book and I have to admit that I haven't read it yet, but I will read it soon. I think that you and I have gone through similar journeys, perhaps in part because we both are both Buddhists and have lived through severe illness. I had severe inflammatory bowel disease for about 7 years and it was a great teacher. Please see my article: "The Gifts of Illness" http://www.elephantjournal.com/2010/12/the-gifts-… . I am so glad that your wisdom is helping so many people.
Thanks Toni. I appreciate your link as well. So what you are saying…kindof…is "shit happens." ??
I started practicing sitting meditation several months ago for pain and endorphin addiction management, and I've experienced some relief from longtime digestive pain that I believe was very connected to stress. I absolutely know that mental suffering directly causes me physical suffering. As far as physical suffering that just is…so hard to work through, but like you said, I think the mindfulness plays a big role to help one to not make it worse, but instead to offer a peaceful and forgiving environment for healing.

Document Number: 5771No Geographer Left Behind: A Policy Guide to Geography Education and the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 - This paper traces the history of geography education in the U.S. from the 1980s to the present, and addresses the programs within the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) that can support geography, defined as a �core academic subject� in the Act. Recommendations also are provided on how local, state and national leaders can make the most of the opportunities available in geography education, including creating an information campaign to familiarize geography teachers, school administrators and the Geography Alliance Network with NCLB and the opportunities it offers, improving the quality of geography teaching through development programs, and ensuring the continuation of such student assessments in geography as NAEP.

Animals Count. Including badgers!
The Welsh Assembly has published a consultation on the eradication of TB as plans to cull badgers in Pembrokeshire are underway. Wales thereby ignores the decision made in England not to cull badgers because it is an ineffective method to control bovine TB, and it ignores the many thousands of concerned Welsh citizens opposed to such a cruel cull.
The Minister for Rural Affairs is satisfied by the available evidence that bovine TB exists in the badger population in Wales and that the disease is being transmitted between badgers and other animals in Wales, and; the destruction of badgers in parts of Wales is necessary in order to substantially reduce the incidence of bovine TB in Wales.
The Consultation on the Tuberculosis Eradication (Wales) Order 2009 under the Animal Health Act 1981 proposes 'a proactive non-selective cull of badgers within an intensive action pilot area', which means effectively wiping out the badgers in all of North Pembrokeshire.
As Georgie Monbiot argues in the Guardian, 'the plan is brutal, futile and incomprehensible. It's not just that. As Lord Krebs showed, eradication programmes like this cannot do much to control the disease.'
Animals Count would like to reiterate that based on scientific evidence, the best approach to tackle bovine TB is to improve cattle testing. Animals Count will submit a response to the Welsh Assembly Consultation.

Badgers earn a reprieve
In response to the news that badgers earn a reprieve as government rejects a mass cull, the following letter was sent to the media:
"In recent weeks Hilary Benn has been inundated with emails and letters from concerned citizens who care about the fate of badgers. The Independent Scientific Group's authors demonstrated last year that Sir David King's report, which included recommendations to cull badgers in order to control bovine TB, was flawed in many ways.
Bovine TB is primarily caused by poor husbandry methods; farmers should be given the opportunity to improve these methods and protect cattle, rather than support killing hundreds of thousands of badgers just because they believe this will address the root problem.
Animals Count, a political party for people and animals, is very pleased with the news that badgers in England are now unlikely to be mass culled, and we strongly urge the Welsh Assembly to overturn their decision to kill badgers."
5 July, 2008
Just weeks after Sir David King, Chief Scientific officer, recommended badger culling as a solution to bovine TB problems (often caused and spread by intensive crowded and filthy conditions in which cows are kept), his advice has been criticised by an independent professor and authors of the original Independent Scientific Group (ISG) report on badgers and bovine TB.
According to the Badger Trust the ISG's analysis shows that Sir David King made fundamental scientific errors in his use and interpretation of the information in the ISG's final report on bovine TB. The ISG reveals that Sir David:
- Incorrectly interpreted the significance of statistical confidence intervals;
- Excluded important data without justification;
- Failed to consider ecological data which supported the ISG's conclusions; and
- Misunderstood mathematical modelling of TB and consequently under-estimated the benefits of cattle-based TB control measures;
- Called for badger culling in areas that are too small to be beneficial, without providing scientific evidence to support his advice.
The Badger Trust concludes 'by default, Sir David's views on bovine TB should not be taken seriously by politicians who have promised to base their policies on sound science.'
In addition Sir King also suggested on 28th November that 'Brown must embrace GM crops to head off food crisis'. A campaigner for Friends of the Earth rejected his claim and stated "we need to urgently tackle the environmental challenges. This requires investment in worldwide sustainable farming methods which meet local environmental and social needs, a reduction in meat and livestock production and a freeze on the rush to develop agrofuels.'
Being discredited on a number of occassions, Animals Count urges the government to ignore Sir King's advice on badgers (and other issues) and to improve cattle-based measures instead.
30 November, 2007
Read DEFRA's response to our email here.
Chief scientific adviser to the government Prof David King urges for a badger cull in areas where cattle TB is present, despite the fact that the report by the Independent Scientific Group in June 'indicates that badger culling can make no meaningful contribution to cattle TB control in Britain. Indeed, some policies under consideration are likely to make matters worse rather than better.' Possibly up to 60 thousand or more badgers are under threat this time.
More than 1,000 farmers have signed up to participating in a badger cull if a licensing scheme is sanctioned. A spokesperson for the National Farmers Union said that 'despite the large area covered [70%], it would not be a 'mass cull', as this would not be acceptable to the public. It would be a 'proper co-ordinated cull of diseased badgers', in conjunction with Animal Health.'
Prof. King claims he only looked at the science; however, a Badger Trust spokesperson said that Prof. King's 'recommendations repeat virtually word for word the opinions of farming unions and the cull mad vets in Defra. This is a highly-politicised rush to judgment, which, ludicrously, contains no cost benefit analysis.'
The Independent Scientific Group advises that TB can be rapidly reversed and brought under control by improving the cattle testing regime which currently misses around 1 in 3 infected cattle leaving them to infect other cattle in the herd.
Animals Count calls on the government not to cull the badgers and to improve cattle testing. The debate about badgers as culprits has lasted long enough. Leave the animals alone!

This is not a car for the financially challenged people, you can all go get your econobox elsewhere. This is the car for the people who like small things, and have enough money to indulge in a little fun. There are quite a few people who LOVE small cars, and don't need the macho image.
free playstation?
meh still not worth it.
For a grand more u will b able to purchase the new dodge dart. I don't understand the need for a car this size unless it gets 50+ mpg and they don't. Isn't the fortwo in trouble? Why replace a niche nobody wants? Silly car for a silly price. Let alone this car is 20g loaded.
To quote Paul Tracy, "Craptastic!"
Nice car but a little too expensive.
I'd rather get a Corolla or the new Focus
This is a reason why a fully loaded Ford Focus ST will be $30k. Because this little toy is $16k.
I don't why anyone would buy this for this much.
