Does Artificial Sugar Cause Weight Gain?
Once the savior of those trying to lose weight and maintain diabetes, artificial sugars are now being scrutinized more closely and some people are blaming them for weight problems and even going as far as saying they're dangerous. With all the conflicting information out there, it's hard to know what to believe. If you're on a weight loss journey and you use artificial sugar, you might be asking yourself, "Does artificial sugar cause weight gain?"
The very thing that got you off your soda kick? Artificial sugar—zero calorie sweeteners causing people to gain weight? But how is that even possible?
Well, it depends on whom you ask.
We prefer to get our information from the smart people in white lab coats, so that's what we did. And we will answer your question, "Does Artificial Sugar Cause Weight Gain?"
The answer, in short, is –no, it's not proven to directly cause weight gain.
Does Artificial Sugar Cause Weight Gain? Theories
While there have been 'theories' linking artificial sugar to weight gain, none have proven it actually does.
The claims were made solely on observational studies that following 'people who use artificial sugar'. These people had a higher risk for obesity, but the only thing we know is that they consume artificial sugar. We don't know their ages, pre-existing conditions, lifestyles, level of fitness, diet and all the other REALLY important things that go along with making a scientific connection.
Other studies have said that artificial sugars or zero calorie drinks lead to people eating more because they feel better about saving a couple hundred calories they would have otherwise enjoyed during a meal. Again—no scientific evidence links this theory to reality.
Others 'speculate' that artificial sugars disrupt the gut bacteria which leads to conditions ripened for obesity. Speculation is not science.
Lastly, some researchers posit that because our brains respond to sweets as if being rewarded, which is akin to the way our bodies respond to addiction, that replacing 'real' sweets with 'artificial sweets' will cause us to crave more sweets and to possibly binge.
To piggyback that theory, some people think if we activate that part of the brain but fail to truly reward it—the brain will continue to seek more (worse) foods and actually make us overeat or make poor food choices.
Again, while we can all appreciate the ideas, suggestions, speculations and hypotheses, none of them are concrete evidence of artificial sugars CAUSING weight gain.
But other studies debunked that.
Does Artificial Sugar Cause Weight Gain? Actual Clinical Studies
As much as the media would love for it to be that artificial sugars cause obesity and diabetes, science says—Nope.
Studies show artificial sweeteners not only help control weight, but they also prevent weight gain, and even help with weight LOSS.
The verdict: Artificial sugars do not make you gain weight.

Getting in the boat– the gigs are tippy, so be careful
- Choose who is going in which position before getting aboard to avoid unnecessary moving about in the boat
- Get into the boat one at a time and sit down in your position directly
- Avoid stepping onto the thwarts (seats) whenever possible
- The bottom of the boat is slippery when wet so take care and think about where you're putting your feet
- Find your oar and have it ready to use before setting off. Numbers are Bow no.1, going toward Stroke, no.4
- Set your footrest so that your legs are only just bent when leaning forward and straight when leaning back
- All rowers and the cox must be familiar with all the commands, and whether their oar is on the port (bow) or starboard (stroke) side
Leaving the jetty
- The gig is not very manoeuvrable!
- Steering is best done by the oars, rather than the rudder, so be alert to the cox's orders at all times
- Think about which direction the tide is running (the time of high water is printed on the rowing calendar) and how hard the wind is blowing, and from what direction
- Usually the tide will have a greater effect than the wind, and you can use it to help turn the boat around
- If it's windy, the wind will have more effect than the tide
- You may find it easier to go away backwards in certain conditions
- Rowers who can't put their oar in the water while the gig is alongside may have their oar up vertically in the air until they can, unless it is windy- take windage into consideration
- If there is someone left on the jetty, use them to help get the boat away if necessary
- DO NOT leave the gig alongside the end/higher part of the town jetty as it can easily damage the gunwales (edges) of the boat. However, you may wish to move the boat there before leaving if it is windy/a lot of tide running- be careful to fend the boat off all the time, but don't put your hands on the gunwales!
- The gigs demand good technique, but are very rewarding to row. Basics first-
- Sit on the opposite side of the boat to where your oar rests between the thole pins
- Rowers need to be staggered, and not in a line behind one another
- Make sure the thole pins are in the right places. They are made of hardwood and softwood- put a hardwood pin (darker coloured) in the forward hole and a softwood one (lighter) in the aft hole
- Your outboard hand should be over the oar handle, and your inboard hand should be under. This is for better control of the oar, and easy feathering of the blade
- Don't be put off by the oar slopping around between the thole pins if you are used to rowing with rowlocks, soon you won't notice it
- Make sure the oar is working on the leather while rowing- don't push it so far out or in that it is working on the bare wood
- Keep an eye on your oar blade and ensure it is vertical when entering the water and during the stroke
- Sit square to the boat. It's important to check that your foot rest is set at a comfortable position for you, allowing you to have your legs straight in front of you when leaning back
- Perch on the aft edge of the thwart rather than sit on the middle of it
- Concentrate on keeping in time, and if you are stroke oar, concentrate (don't chat unless you can do two things at once!) on setting a consistent pace for the others to follow (ask the other rowers for feedback from time to time to check that you aren't going too fast or slow)
- The thole pins prevent the oars from being swung along the side of the boat, so if you catch a crab, or need to get your oar out the way fast to avoid an obstruction, lift the handle straight up with the blade still in the water- the oar will trail alongside safely. Practise doing this before you need to!
Aim for a long, steady stroke-
- At the start of the stroke, lean right forward with your arms outstretched, as far as you can reach with a straightish back. Your nose will be almost above your feet
- After dipping the oar in the water, don't let the blade go very far under the surface as you pull back on it. Only the painted part should be under water.
- Pull back steadily, speeding up towards the end of the stroke; save a little extra pull for the end of your stroke which you can help pull yourself back upright with
- Keep pulling the oar handle towards you until your hands touch your stomach before taking the oar out of the water
- Lean as far back as you possibly can! Your legs should end up straight. With practice, you will find yourself able to lean further and further back, which increases the length of time the oar is in the water driving the boat forward.
- As the thwarts are quite closely spaced in the gig, it is crucial for all rowers to lean as much as possible. If one person takes shorter strokes, it is impossible for the other rowers to take longer ones.
While out and about
The gig is fast enough not to take much notice of the tide in calm weather, but as soon as there's a bit of wind
- Avoid the middle of the creek/river if the wind and tide are against you- as well as more tide, as it will be roughest there. Be aware of whether the tide is rising or falling.
- If it's windy, get under the lee of the river bank for smoother water and less arduous rowing. It is good practice anyway to use the windward shore rather than the lee as if you get into difficulties you won't get stuck aground.
- The easiest route may not be a straight line between two places!
- In big waves, try not to steer a course with them straight on the side
Changing positions in the boat
- Only have one person standing up at a time
- Take care with your footing especially with wet feet as the inside of the boat can be very slippery
- The rest of the (seated) crew should help balance the boat while someone is moving around
Enjoy being out in the boat and being sociable, but don't forget to be alert for unexpected orders from the cox at all times!
Meeting other boats while out rowing
- We should obey the 'Regulations for avoiding collisions at sea' (the "rules of the road" for boats). If you're not familiar with them, look them up, or ask if you are not sure. You may consider doing a short course sometime (such as the Competent Crew certificate) if you haven't much experience of boating
- Rowing boats count as a (man)powered vessel and thus we give way to sailing boats.
- Other boats may not have come across a large rowing gig before and may wrongly estimate the speed we can row at, or not appreciate our relative lack of manoeuvrability
- Anticipate other boats' likely movements
- Make the gig's intentions clear to other boats- if you need to make a course alteration to avoid them, make it large and obvious so they can see what you're doing
- Avoid the middle of the channel, particularly in Brightlingsea Creek, as the gig requires very little depth of water while other boats need more
Returning alongside
- Consider the tide and wind again before deciding how to come alongside the jetty- they may have changed since you left
- Listen to the cox's orders, and take no notice of bystanders' advice! The cox will be more aware of how the gig is handling than they may be
- The cox should ask the bow oar to put their oar away in plenty of time for them to be ready with a bow line
- Put the fenders over on the appropriate side before you make the approach to where you want to end up. Allow enough time for rowers to change fenders from one side to the other if required
- As the thole pins prevent the oars being turned along the length of the gig, lift them up vertically in the air (the order is "Up oars") when coming alongside. This may be difficult in windy weather- think about holding the blade so doesn't catch the wind when you do this
- Once the oars are finished with, take out the thole pins and their leathers
- There's a lot of boat in front of the bow oar- don't forget to allow for it!
- Make sure both mooring lines are clear and ready to hand. The longer one may be more useful as you can pass it along the boat to the shore to pull the boat's bow/stern in
- You may come alongside the end (higher part) of the town jetty if conditions require, but DO NOT leave the boat there. Move her around to the lower part as soon as possible
- Get out of the boat in the same way you got in- one at a time. Avoid standing on the thwarts if possible
- Check that the boat is safely moored before leaving her for any length of time, particularly if you are not in Brightlingsea. Think about whether the tide is coming in or going out, and whether she is likely to be in anyone else's way, as well as that she is not going to get damaged on anything. Don't forget that we represent the club, and other members may want to return on another day!
Happy Rowing! – the more you put into it, the more you will get out of it…

Differences Between Trading and Investing
You must have surely heard about people making money from the stock market. Although there are a million ways to do so, we have two broad classifications of stock market activities- Trading (who believe in reading charts) and Investing (who believe in fundamentals of valuation over a long term period).
I have seen many people use these words 'trading' and 'investing' quite synonymously. But in the real world, these two are quite different except for the fact that both of them are a part of the same market and have a common objective of making a profit. There are some fundamental differences between the two and hence here we are discussing trading vs investing. It is important for you to know this as you need to find which one is the right one for you based on your financial goals.

Do check out the difference between – Fundamental analysis vs Technical analysis
Before we get into the specifics of trading vs investing lets understand the difference by looking at the two most influential people in the world of wealth creation, one is known for his long term investments and the other is a renowned trader. If you are a follower of the stock market you might have already guessed the names, they are- Warren Buffet and George Soros. Both have made huge piles of money over their lifetime in the stock market, but differently.
Warren Buffet is worth about US$67 billion who made his money off long-term investments in companies whose stocks he has held for decades. Let's look at one of his famous quotes.
"I will tell you how to become rich. Close the doors. Be fearful when others are greedy. Be greedy when others are fearful." – Warren Buffett
Conversely, there is George Soros whose net worth is about US$24.2 billion who has made money from countless number of trades.

- Trading vs Investing infographics
- Pros and Cons of Trading vs Investing
- What should you do Trading or Investing?
- Problems with being both an investor and trader
- Why trading and investing are both important?
Trading vs Investing Infographics
The below infographics discusses the characteristic differences of trading vs investing.
Pros and Cons of Trading vs investing
Trading stocks is much more time consuming and frantic compared to making investments. In case of investments, once you have made sound investments you can simply relax without buying or selling for months/years.
A quote that signifies this difference-
Investing should be more like watching paint dry or watching grass grow. If you want excitement, take $800 and go to Las Vegas." – Paul Samuelson
- Making long-term investments requires knowledge of companies' financial essentials – like Financial Ratios,understanding Free Cash Flows, DCF valuations, Relative valuation mulitples like PE Ratio, PBV Ratio, Although you have the opportunity to make piles money quickly with trading the risk involved is much higher in trading than in investments. You could lose more money than you actually have in trading. There is a risk of losing money in investments as well, but that could occur because of the vagaries in the business and due to market timing.
- The cost involved in trading is usually high as every time you trade a stock you will have to shell out certain fees. Hence, your returns need to comparatively higher to cover up those costs. In contrast you will lower costs since there is less of the buying and selling but then the returns will also be comparatively lower.
- Long term investments are for those people who want to make money but avoid huge losses. You could earn a decent return by reinvesting your dividends and leaving your money In the market for long term.

What should you do- Trading or Investing?
Try answering the following questions for yourself and you could probably know if trading is the thing for you or investing.
- When deciding between trading vs investing you need to think about the time you can devote for any of them. If you can spend hours on reading charts and graphs on a daily basis then trading would be the thing for you. If not then you would be better off with long term investments.
- The amount of equity research that will involve in trading is also much more extensive as compared to making investments. A lot of hard work is involved in analyzing the financial statements, company growth, history and also future financial projections. Those who would really enjoy putting in energy and doing the technical and fundamental analysis religiously should consider playing the market.
- Considering the size of an investor and their goals, if you are a small investor you would be better suited for long term investments with the goal of growing your portfolio whereas if you are a large investor with the goal of short term trading then you should plan to beat the market.
Problem with doing both Trading vs Investing
What when the investments don't go as per our plan? This is when some of the biggest errors happen. People tend to confuse the investing approach with the trading one and head towards danger. When the stock price is doing well neither the trader or the investor has any problem. But what happens when it does not?
Let's say the stock price starts falling. Here as a trader you would have an escape in order to avert the small losses becoming big ones. Since as a trader you are not emotionally attached to the stock you will get rid of it at the correct point of time. This is rightly what a trader should do.
But there is a problem in case if you decide to keep the stock and not want to give upon it. So here the trader has become an alleged investor who does not have enough information on the company to make a decision of holding the stock or letting it go. As an investor you would be working on guess. Similarly being an investor you are not supposed to sell off the stock when the prices go down but believe on the fundamentals and hold on to the stock.
Regardless of which one of them is a better strategy, you should pick one or the other and stick to it.
Why trading and investing are both important?
Investing vs trading are interdependent wherein without the existence of traders, investors will have no liquidity to buy and sell stock and without investors traders shall have no origin from which to buy and sell. Hence, it is difficult to decide which one is superior.
If everyone was an investor, then no one would be willing to sell or buy in the short-term, leading to an unhealthy market scenario. At the end it is liquidity that tends to smooth out market prices.
If we have to summarize the entire discussion we are had on trading vs investing, traders are the ones that take advantage of the market conditions to enter or exit their positions on stocks over a short period of time, taking smaller but much more returns, whereas investors strive for larger returns over a long-drawn-out period by buying and holding stocks.
It is not much of a concern that you are trading or investing, it's just that you need to be engaged in a chase that suits your personality traits, capabilities, and philosophies. I hope you enjoyed reading this information on trading vs investing as much as I did writing it.

Canada Markets
Canada's August-Through-January Canola Exports to China
Very little has been reported in the past week since Reuters broke the story suggesting that China will tighten their tolerance of foreign material found in canola shipments from the current 2.5% to 1%.
To-date, media reports indicate varying reasons for this move. This ranges from a "scientific disagreement" over the potential transmission of blackleg fungus, as indicated by the Canola Council of Canada, to a simple barrier to trade. Reuters reported that China is sitting on 5.5 million tons of rapeseed oil. A tweet from the Canola Council of Canada convention in San Diego today reiterated one speaker's claim that there are two experts on China's oilseed supply and demand -- those who don't know and those that know they don't know.
The May canola contact lost $17.70/metric ton last week, reaching a low of $445.20/mt, the lowest weekly close since the week of May 4 2014. A fresh low of $435.50/mt was reached in Wednesday's trade, the lowest level on the continuous chart seen since December 2014, although prices rebounded sharply to close near the upper end of Wednesday's $17.40/mt trading range. As of Wednesday trade, retracement support at $445.80/mt as well as $438/mt along with psychological support at $440/mt has held, with today's close at $452.10/mt. Today's close was higher despite losses in soy oil, palm and rapeseed.
Despite the challenges faced by the exporters in reaching the 1% tolerance, which does not include sales already on the books, there exist some supportive commercial signals in the market. First, spreads have narrowed. The May/July spread weakened $1.10/mt last week to a $6/mt carry (July trading over the May), while has since narrowed by $2.50/mt so far this week to a $3.50/mt carry, the narrowest this spread has been since the week of Jan. 18 and an indication of a less-bearish commercial sentiment. A quick look at the new-crop November/January spread indicates that the spread has weakened (grown increasingly bearish) from minus $1.40/mt on Feb. 1 to a low of minus $5/mt on Feb. 23, although has since narrowed to minus $4.30/mt.
As well, the Vancouver cash basis was reported to narrow in Tuesday's trade this week from $25/mt over the May to $27/mt over the May, a sign of strengthening off-shore demand.
Despite the bearish news involving Canada's largest customer, the market may be showing signs of bottoming with a bullish outside day trading bar seen on the daily chart.

The Best Routers and Modems for Xfinity
Dec 3, 2018 | Share
Brand Guides, Equipment Guides
Did you know that you don't have to use the equipment your Internet Service Provider (ISP) gives you? Most people just take their provider's gear and don't think twice about other options, but there is another way. If you're finding that your wireless connection with Comcast Xfinity isn't living up to your expectations, purchasing your own router can give your connection a boost and possibly save you money in the long run.
There are a lot of alternative routers available, but not all are compatible with Comcast Xfinity. To make your search for an alternative easier, we rounded up the four best wireless routers that work with Comcast Xfinity internet and provided links of where you can find them on Amazon.

The Top Routers for Comcast Xfinity
Dimensions: 10.8″ x 10.2″ x. 3.6″
Weight: 2.8 lbs.
Speed: Up to 960 Mbps
Bands: Dual-band (2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz)
Ports: Four gigabit Ethernet ports
Price: $$$
Other Features: Combo modem/router/voice modem
For customers who need an all-in-one combo with a little more punch than the provided Xfinity modem, the NETGEAR Nighthawk is a great pick. It provides faster speeds and more advanced phone features. It's also more compact and half the weight, so it's more likely to fit in places like a cramped entertainment center.
Dimensions: 6.6″ x 8.8″ x 2.9″
Weight: 4.1 lbs.
Speed: Up to 7.2 Gbps
Bands: Tri-band (2.4 Ghz, 5 Ghz, and 60 Ghz)
Ports: Seven gigabit Ethernet ports, one 10-gigabit fiber port
Price: $$$$$
Other Features: MU-MIMO support, dynamic QoS, and a powerful processor for sustained performance
For users who need the fastest wireless speeds possible, the NETGEAR Nighthawk X10 is tough to beat. With the new 802.11ad wireless protocol on board, this futuristic-looking router delivers speeds up to 7.2 Gbps. It also comes packed with advanced features to ensure you get the most power possible from your Xfinity internet connection.
The only catch is that it doesn't include a modem, so you'll need to use the one provided by Xfinity in addition to this one. But if you're subscribing to Xfinity's ultrafast 2G fiber service, you'll need equipment that can keep up.
Dimensions: 5″ x 10.8″ x 10.8″
Weight: 5.1 lbs.
Speed: Up to 640 Mbps
Bands: Dual-band (2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz)
Ports: Four gigabit Ethernet ports
Price: $10 per month
Other Features: Combo modem/router/voice modem
The Xfinity Wireless Gateway is the standard modem/router you get from Comcast when you sign up for an internet plan. This means it's guaranteed to work well with your Xfinity service, and it covers all the bases by including the internet modem, a wireless router, and a voice modem all in one box.
Covering all those bases does come at a cost, which is why you'll have to shell out $10.00 a month to rent this router. Still, if you don't plan to have Xfinity service for long, this might be the most cost-effective option for you. Another advantage is Xfinity customer support will troubleshoot issues with the Wireless Gateway, whereas if you use your own equipment, you might be on your own when technical complications arise.
Dimensions: 10.5″ x 11″ x 3″
Weight: 2.7 lbs.
Speed: Up to 686 Mbps
Bands: Dual-band (2.4 Ghz and 5 Ghz)
Ports: Four gigabit Ethernet ports
Price: $$
Other Features: Wireless Power Boost and AnyBeam beamforming for increased performance and range
For Xfinity customers who want to use their own router but don't want to spend a lot, this Motorola modem/router combo is the perfect choice. Like the standard Xfinity Wireless Gateway, it combines your modem and router in one box, which saves space. While it doesn't have some of the advanced features of the other routers on the list, the lower price makes up for that.
Should you use the Comcast Xfinity router or purchase your own router?
5 Things to Consider When Purchasing a Wireless Router
If you've decided to use your own equipment, here are five key features to look for when shopping for a router.
1. Compatibility
The first thing to consider when shopping is whether the router is compatible with your Xfinity internet service. Most stand-alone wireless routers should work just fine with Xfinity (or any other provider), and all the routers listed in this article are compatible with Comcast Xfinity internet service. You'll need to pay extra attention only when the router in question also includes a modem. Most providers, including Xfinity, provide lists of compatible modems and routers for customers interested in using their own equipment.
What's the difference between a modem and a router? If you don't know the answer to this question, you should before you start shopping. The modem is the part of the network that connects to your provider's lines (like the cable jack in the wall) and translates those signals into something useable by your devices. This is why you'll need to make sure any modem you buy can decode your provider's signal.
The router takes the signal from the modem and makes it accessible to your devices. Routers broadcast the internet signal over the air as radio waves so other devices can pick it up without plugging directly into the modem/router.
2. Speed
If you have Comcast Xfinity, speed is probably the biggest thing you can improve by purchasing your own router. The one provided by Xfinity just doesn't offer a ton of throughput. Many modern routers support more bandwidth than your ISP can provide, but that doesn't necessarily mean its capability is going to waste. The extra overhead can help the router perform better when multiple devices are hitting it hard, making your internet connection less likely to slow down or boot users off.
Speed on routers is a little tricky, though. That's because the advertised speed on a wireless router is almost never going to be the actual speed your devices experience—even if your internet service supports it. The thing about Wi-Fi is that because it's transmitted through the air, it's always subject to interference and other environmental factors.
Actual speeds on routers can be as low as a third of the advertised maximum speed. But since routers usually offer seemingly unbelievable maximum speeds, experiencing even one third of what they advertise will still allow you to see improvements (as long as your connection is fast enough).
3. Wireless Standard
When shopping for routers, you'll see strings of numbers and letters beginning with "802.11." Common examples are 802.11g, 802.11n, and 802.11ac. These represent the wireless standard (or protocol) used by the router. This standard is part of what dictates the speed and range the router is capable of. There are three common standards you'll see on modern routers:
- 11ac is the most common standard you'll see on new routers. Also known as gigabit Wi-Fi, 802.11ac supports speeds up to 1.3 Gbps.
- 11n is the standard of the previous generation. It supported speeds up to 450 Mbps and can still be found on some low-end routers.
- 11ad is a newer standard that is starting to appear on some very high-end routers. It supports speeds up to 4.6 Gbps (four times as fast as 802.11ac), but few devices and even fewer internet connections are capable of making full use of this protocol.
Look for a router that supports 802.11ac to make the most of modern connection speeds and mobile devices. 802.11ad is a nice bonus, but it may not be worth the cost quite yet.
4. Range
You want to make sure the range of your router matches up with the size of your home. Most modern routers should cover an average-sized home with no problem, but if your house is unusually large, you'll need to either look at options with more range or purchase extenders. If the range of a router is low, devices that are far away will get weak signals (or no signal at all).
5. Advanced Features
Keep an eye out for these other advanced features that can make your home Wi-Fi experience more pleasant.
- Quality of Service (QoS): QoS helps prioritize the traffic and devices on your network so more important traffic gets sent first. This is a common feature on business-class routers because it does things like help prevent the important video call from getting slowed down by John Doe streaming Netflix in the corner cubicle. This feature isn't just useful for businesses, though. In the home, it can ensure a strong signal for streaming even if others are using the network to surf Facebook or do homework at the same time.
- MU-MIMO: MU-MIMO stands for multi-user, multiple-input, multiple-output. This technology helps a router communicate with multiple devices more efficiently. If you commonly have several people online at once in your home, MU-MIMO can make a big difference in performance.
- Beamforming: Beamforming is a technology that takes the wireless signal broadcast by your router and focuses it toward specific devices on the network rather than just sending it out in every direction. The result? A stronger, longer-range signal.
Educating yourself about the different options available helps you make informed decisions, whether you end up using the Xfinity Wireless Gateway or purchasing your own modem/router. Any of the top routers we covered above should help you get the most out of your Xfinity internet service.
So, what did you decide to go with? Will you purchase your own router or stick with the provided equipment? Weigh in by leaving a comment below to help other visitors make the choice that's best for them.

Submission Requirements
- Title page should have the following:
- Contact info should be left aligned and single spaced near the top of the page. Use your real name, address, phone number, and e-mail address. Follow that up with the word count.
- Half way down the page, center the title of the manuscript (ALL CAPS). On the next line type the word 'by' or 'novel by'; on the next line add your pen name or your real name.
- Manuscripts should be formatted in the following manner:
- Use 1-inch margins on all sides (top, bottom, right, left).
- The line spacing should be set as double-space.
- The alignment should be left (not justified).
- Choose a Times New Roman, Courier, Arial or a similar font that is 12 points.

- Manuscripts should be written in third person point of view (POV). We prefer deep third person POV rather than omniscient. Only submit in first person POV if you are skilled in writing in this POV. If you are unsure about POV, please perform an online search.
Tips for Writers
Do NOT expect the editor to rewrite your entire story. Make sure you have performed the self-edits on your manuscript before submitting it. This means reading your entire manuscript aloud and listening to the flow and rhythm of each sentence. It also means correcting obvious content errors (Does your character have on red shoes in chapter 1 but then is shown wearing blue shoes within that same chapter and scene?). Make sure the plot is solid. Also correct obvious grammar and punctuation errors.
Author's Checklist:
- Does your first sentence have a strong hook or opening that will reel the reader in?
- Have you started each chapter right in the middle of the action?
- Is the setting and tone clear?
- Are your characters exciting and worth continuing to read about? Does the character have strengths and weaknesses?
- Are there too many characters? Most fiction should have no more than four main characters, five at the most. Minor characters do not count.
- Is there enough conflict in each scene? Does the story make sense?
- Does the dialogue move the story forward and is it believable and appropriate for the character?
- Is the pacing too slow?
- Avoid using clichés (Dumb as a doorknob). Create your own. And do not open any chapter with an alarm clock going off or someone waking up. These openings are also cliché.
- Have you ended each chapter with something that will keep the reader's attention? A disturbing thought, a new problem, a hard decision, a secret.
BONUS: Do not use multiple exclamation points !!!!! or !?

Cold ignorance puts all at risk
Widespread ignorance about the causes and treatment of colds and influenza may be contributing to the spread of antibiotic resistance, according to the Federal Government's chief advisor on the safe use of medicines.
Commonwealth agency NPS MedicineWise has commissioned research showing that 65 per cent of workers – including 71 per cent of those aged between 18 and 34 years – mistakenly believe that antibiotics help cure colds and the flu, a disturbing result that raises the prospect of widespread inappropriate use of medicines whose effectiveness is under threat from over-prescribing and overuse.
NPS MedicineWise clinical adviser Dr Andrew Boyden said the research, conducted by pollster Galaxy Research, showed that many people mistakenly believed that antibiotics – which are only effective for bacterial infections – were useful in treating viral infections like colds and influenza, potentially contributing to antibiotic resistance.
"Using antibiotics when they're not needed, like for colds and flu, is contributing to antibiotic resistance," Dr Boyden said. "This is making bacterial infections such as pneumonia and tuberculosis harder to treat, with potentially dire consequences."
Rising antibiotic resistance has been identified as a major global threat to health. There has been a proliferation of bacterial infections resistant to multiple antibiotics. This has coincided in a slowdown in the development of new drugs, leading to warnings that in future many people will die from relatively simple infections because antibiotics have been rendered impotent.
In addition to misconceptions regarding the use of antibiotics, the Galaxy poll also found that most (94 per cent) of employees have gone to work with a cold or flu, 41 per cent believe they have caught the infection using public transport and 42 per cent think have a cold or flu because they have got cold, wet or have caught a chill.
"You can't catch a cold or flu from the weather, yet many Australian workers seem to believe that they have had a cold or flu from getting cold, wet or catching a chill," Dr Boyden said. "Colds and flu are viral infections that are spread from person to person, so good hygiene is paramount.
Dr Boyden said people with a cold or flu should stay at home when unwell, use a tissue when coughing or sneezing, wash their hands after coughing or blowing their nose, avoid sharing cups or cutlery and keep household surfaces clean.

I don't usually do this sort of thing. Write about television or visual media. I'm a book person. I'm comfortable there. But I suppose there's a crossover, given that the writer for the most recent Elementary episode is Paul Cornell, whose fiction I've read and enjoyed here and there.
Elementary is my favorite tv show. It's currently the only show I watch regularly and keep up with, as it comes out (online, 10pm is too late for me to stay up and watch it on the day). One of the things I've most enjoyed about Elementary is it's ability to represent lots of different kinds of people, to never feel like it's consciously excluding any one group. It seems, instead, to make a conscious effort to include people from groups that are generally marginalized in mainstream media. It's not perfect, by any stretch, but it does seem to make an effort.
So, we're back to this week's episode, "You've Got Me, Who's Got you?," written by Paul Cornell and featuring a comic book hero as its main plot. It was funny, don't get me wrong, and enjoyable to watch the way Joan and Sherlock's relationship seems to have really come to a point of mutual understanding and closeness.
Except, where were all the other women?
Except for Joan's friend running the charity for whom she's doing the clothing drive, there are basically no other women in the entire episode with speaking parts. Even Morland's Russian seamstress doesn't get a word in when he casually dismisses her so he can conduct his seedy business with Joan.
Bad enough this happens at all, but add to it the fact that the episode is about comic books and superheroes–two subjects that have been really, well, shitty, about their treatment of women characters and women in general–and overall I was left with a feeling that the creators of this episode just didn't think women were necessary or belonged. Which is a hell of a feeling to get about a show that up till now always made me feel welcome, whose main characters always cared about what happened to those generally left out.
Let's break it down a little more, and really dig at what was so deflating about this episode.
First, Joan's friend. It's great when we get to see aspects of Joan's personal life, especially her friends who are women because she's so constantly surrounded by men in the course of her work. But the friend just happens to be the manager of a charity designed to help the disadvantaged–a very feminized form of work for the public good, especially compared to the very masculinized "heroes" we meet later on–and she's the passive recipient of a huge amount of money from Moreland, who has a really bad history with women and is later revealed to have made the donation pretty much to manipulate Joan. Oh yeah, and the clothing donation Joan is dropping off at the point happens to come from Everyone, in an embarrassing episode in which Sherlock forces them all to strip in his living room, and who is front and center in the shot while he's explaining it all to Joan? Of course, it's a woman in black bra and underwear, who just happens to be very attractive, especially in comparison with the overweight and otherwise "undesirable" men she's with. And of course she's the only woman. Fun times.
After the revelation of the murder, we meet Joan and Sherlock in the waiting area of Superlative Comics, and Joan reveals that she knows a lot more than Sherlock's recently acquired knowledge of all the Superlative heroes because her brother was a comic nerd. Yeah. Joan couldn't possibly be a geek, and even though she's not even claiming the title she's put through the classic geek girl test, and by her partner no less. Maybe the show's creators just thought it was a clever way to "introduce" the Superlative brand, but it comes off as another example of a woman taking on the emotional labor of knowing everything about the activities of the men in their lives, while getting none of the rewards.
Of course, all the people Joan and Sherlock talk to at Superlative are men, because a woman couldn't possibly be a writer for a comic, and definitely not in charge of anything so important as a publishing house. A woman may have been glimpsed walking around the Superlative offices, but she was probably just getting coffee or something.
Let's talk about overall plot. Plot A comes down, basically, to the fragile masculinity of the grandson of the Midnight Ranger comic's creator (the superhero impersonated by the murdered "hero" of Greenpoint). This is in counterpoint to the "heroes" themselves, who are typical representatives of masculinity you find in action movies–their physical prowess, particularly–which they use directly to stop crimes. I practically laughed out loud when half the crimes were saving poor hapless women from purse snatchers. The grandson and murderer, by contrast, only has an arsenal of weapons, and is characterized basically as a physical coward who just wants what everyone else has.
While all of this is happening, Moreland Holmes is trying to use the guilt and sense of obligation that women are socialized to feel towards anyone ever doing anything nice for them in order to get Joan–not just to work for him–but to have sympathy for him. Moreland wants her to understand that he is not only wronged in business, but sorely misunderstood by his son, who really ought to just get over all that stuff with his mother anyway. Moreland thinks, and wants everyone to think, that he is always in the right. Joan's secrecy about her meetings with Moreland didn't feel right with her current relationship with Sherlock; she was portrayed as some version of a sneaking or cheating spouse; she's like a woman expected to always get clearance from the man in her life, going against his wishes in poorly contrived scene after poorly contrived scene.
Joan's decision to use the real mole to her advantage is in character with her previous actions and willingness to be more cutthroat than Sherlock, however because of the way it was staged I worry that it will not only go sour somehow, but the fact that it does go wrong will be used to put Joan in her place sometime in the future, to pull her back from the level of near-professional-equality she has achieved with Sherlock. Once again, as long as Joan is supporting Sherlock, she's fine. When she oversteps her bounds, that's when we have to start expecting punishment. Just look what happened when she cheated on Sherlock with his brother. She got kidnapped and almost killed.
All in all, this episode gave the distinct impression that women have a defined role in this world, and it certainly doesn't overlap with the affairs or interests of men. Women are meant to be quiet, to be decorative, to fill their time in charitable activities, but above all not to presume they are owed equal place with men. Joan was just one more example of the exceptional woman whose expertise is trotted out when it's convenient or needed to verify the place of some man in her life and to serve his ends, and whatever experiences she has, whatever knowledge she has acquired, must first be vetted by a man before it can be accepted as real.
And then there are all the intersectional casting issues with this episode, which I don't even think I'm qualified to get into here.
Anyway, yes, I love this show, but this episode was terribly problematic.

Whoa, there's a post here. Surprise of the day.ReplyDelete
Understanding is often, though not always, related to learning concepts, and sometimes also the theory or theories associated with those concepts. However, a person may have a good ability to predict the behaviour of an object, animal or system - and therefore may, in some sense, understand it - without necessarily being familiar with the concepts or theories associated with that object, animal or system in their culture.ReplyDelete

Sound Garden
I have always thought of the Musical Playgrounds as Sound Gardens, even in the whirl and din of a school playground, somewhere where the sound can grow and blossom. The instruments in oak frames have been installed in many school yards, and different areas of a school's grounds.
The musical instruments have been designed and made to be able to be played by individuals or by large groups of children. Each musical playground or sound garden is conceived as one large instrument, with a bass, middle and higher register. The designs are very robust and require minimal maintenance. The oak frames shouldn't require any maintenance or upkeep.
Many sensory gardens have been created in recent years, and the sound of these outdoor musical instruments being played in these gardens brings a special life and energy to these places. A sensory garden without any instruments is a very dull place in comparison.
Some schools have created their Sound Gardens by adding more elements each year, and so over three years have created a Sound Garden with a full range of instruments. This approach allows for the school community to fully support and engage with the process, from fundraising all the way to digging holes to install.
Sound Gardens can attract funding by being a resource to be enjoyed and used by the broader community.

BB-8 the friendly droid in the new StarWars the Force Awakens, made bySphero, went for sale a few months ago and you can now buy a newly released wearable band to control the droid called the Force Band!
Sphero is a company that makes robotic balls that you can drive and control using an app. One of its most popular products is the Ollie, or was the Ollie, util they released BB-8.
Its really cool, it looks like a watch and is filled with sensors to allow you to control BB-8 using hand gestures, much like if you were using the force.

BB-8 costs $150.00 but the cost of the band hasn't been released yet, it looks as though sometime in fall of 2016. The company will be releasing a special BB-8 that has battle scars and looks war torn along with the band.

Undereye concealer is my holy grail makeup product; it always has the power to make me look fresh and energetic, even after a late night. But as it turns out, I've been making a pretty crucial mistake when applying undereye concealer: applying it with my fingers.
Apparently, using your fingers is just about the worst way to apply concealer. When applying makeup, your hands touch a ton of different products which means they're pretty dirty by the time you get to that delicate skin underneath your eyes. Depending on the order in which you apply your makeup, you make even have eyeshadow or mascara on your fingers when it comes time to apply concealer, which can often lead to extra shadows, smudges or flaws in the coverage- things you're trying to avoid.
Smudges aside, your also hands carry lots of bacteria, which could make your skin break out. Even worse? Getting any of that yucky bacteria that's on your hands into your eyes!
So instead of using your fingers to apply concealer, you absolutely, positively should invest in a concealer brush, or at the very least, use the applicator that came with your concealer.
Another added benefit of using a concealer brush is that it makes it a lot easier to pick up the right amount of product. Concealer contains a lot of pigment, and when you put it on with your fingers, you're probably being a little too heavy handed. Plus, brushes are easy to use in a tapping motion, which will give your concealer a smoother, more airbrushed finish.

Since the beginning of Summer I've wanted to purchase a picnic basket so I could have a picnic with my nieces at the park. I know I could just throw things in a cooler but I want it to feel like a real picnic. I looked on Amazon and was thisclose to purchasing this one but held off. Holding off paid off for me because yesterday I scored TWO basically brand new picnic baskets off a FB garage sale site for $14! Winner winner chicken dinner!
I'm inserting a shameless plug right here: The childcare centre that I run is doing a Mabel's Labels fundraiser. Mabel's Labels are dishwasher, microwave, and laundry safe personalized labels. These labels are PERFECT for back to school and it saves the time and effort of writing everything out by hand. Writing someone's name on 56 crayons? No thank you! You can check them out here!
|The OCCC is a not for profit organization so this is VERY fitting
And finally... last Friday was my birthday and I had full intentions of having my Birthday Giveaway go live on my actual birthday but due to my little blogging break that obviously didn't happen. So, here I am a week later, on the last day of my birthday month, starting the giveaway. I LOVE celebrating birthdays and love gifting people so I am so excited to be doing this! What will you get if you win?
What are you waiting for? Get those entries in!
Good luck!

This post was inspired by the recent event that happened involving an ESPN reporter named Britt McHenry. For those who have no idea who I am talking about, I will give you a brief summary.
Britt McHenry is a reporter for ESPN who happens to be very beautiful. She went out to dinner a few weeks ago and her car was towed. When she went to retrieve her car from the towing place, she was very very very MEAN to the woman who worked for the towing company who released the cars once a person had paid the charges.
Miss McHenry was VERY angry about her car being towed and decided to take her frustrations out on the parking lot attendant. The problem is, though, was that Miss McHenry was VERY mean to this woman. She degraded her several times. Miss McHenry made sure to tell the parking lot attendant that "she was on TV and could sue this place." Miss McHenry's frustrations' turned into attacks on the parking lot attendant. She attacked the attendant's education by saying "So I could be a college drop out and do the same thing?" She said that she couldn't believe that someone would work in this trailer. At the end of her mean girl rant, she told the attendant that she needed to lose weight.
The towing company released the video of Britt McHenry to the press and the entire world could see Britt McHenry's mean girl behavior.
This made me start to think. How many times did Britt McHenry treat others like this and was not caught? The interesting part of the story is that many people are angry and demanding that ESPN fire Britt McHenry. ESPN suspended her for a week and she apologized for her bad behavior.
Is that enough?
Someone in the media said that people are very angry about this and aren't "letting it go" because most of us can relate to this (not being the mean person part…..but being the victim).
We all know someone who is like this, that person (male or female) who pretends that they are a nice person when they need to, but then they will be horrible to you. You can't relate because you are not a mean spirited person so this type of behavior disgusts you. You are disgusted when this mean spirited person pretends that they are actually a nice person and even fools some people. You want people to see that this person is indeed a phony. They are not nice and treat some people really well and others they are just downright horrible to.
There is some satisfaction when these mean spirited people are found out. How many people did Britt McHenry treat like garbage? Do you think they are smiling a little bit more when they saw her tape and the consequences?
As a Christian, I cannot wish ill will on any person, even the person who is really mean to me. I don't wish that bad things happen to them because of their behavior. The thing I wish most is that people who are mean spirited get mental help. It is not natural to be a mean spirited person. I feel sorry for people who have to hurt others to make themselves feel better about themselves. This has to be a mental illness.
I am very thankful that the people who I love the most and are my family and friends are not mean spirited people. Life is too short. If you see someone being mean spirited, don't laugh with them. Look them in the eye and say "That is not ok and is not nice." Too many times people don't want to call these mean spirited people, or bullies, out for their mean behavior. I have found in life that sometimes you have to tell people "That is not ok."
None of us are better than any other human being on earth. Just because I was lucky enough to be born in the USA and into a good family, this does not make me better than the homeless person on the street hustling for money. I am just luckier than that person. There are lots of things that I have no control over. I cannot control my IQ and to some point, my looks. Some people are blessed to be born very smart while others struggle. Some people are blessed with good looks while others are not as blessed. If you are blessed to be born with a high IQ and very good looks, it is disgusting if you are mean to another person that may have not been dealt the same cards. It does make you a bully when you prey on the weak.
I think that Miss McHenry is learning a very hard lesson. I am sad that her arrogance finally caught up with her. I don't wish a bad life for her. I wish that she not only eats her humble pie but digests it. I want her to truly get that one of the most important things in life is treating other people nicely.
My question for you is this: Do you think ESPN should fire Britt McHenry or give her another chance?

Combination Lever Noseband
Combination or lever noseband: this noseband has a half-moon piece of metal that goes on each side of the horse's face. On the "top" end of the curve (near the horse's cheek bone), a piece of leather is attached that runs under the jaw and attaches to the other side of the face. At the peak of the curve is a piece of leather that runs over the top of nose in a position slightly lower from where a regular cavesson would cross. At the "bottom" of the curve, a third piece of leather goes under the chin groove of the horse. This noseband is similar in design to the figure-eight, and works similarly by preventing the horse from crossing his jaws (which is especially helped by the metal on either side of the face). Unlike the figure-eight, it does not stabilize the bit and it tends to push the cheeks in against the horse's molars which can be painful.

Cupping, or fire cupping as it is at times named, comes from conventional Chinese medicine (TCM) and involves unique glass cups called inspirators. I I tried cupping many years ago and I should say that they had been really effective against my sore muscles. Laser medicine involves the use of lasers in the diagnostics and/or treatment of numerous conditions. Medicine Wheels were stone structures built by Native Americans for spiritual and ceremonial purposes. In more modern days, the Medicine Wheel has grown to signify the Fantastic Wheel or Cycle of Life. Concerta did have two undesirable side effects – appetite loss and throat clearing.
Modern medicine is useful in emergencies such as surgery or when we catch an infection BUT metabolic diseases are exactly that – the body malfunctioning due to lack of optimum levels of nutrients and the only thing to right that is nutrients. I even discovered a box of sore throat lozenges, not cough drops, with 9 lozenges to a box for 88 cents. Gender-primarily based medicine studies the biological and physiological variations amongst the human sexes and how that impacts differences in illness.
Family medicine , household practice , common practice or main care is, in numerous countries, the first port-of-call for patients with non-emergency health-related troubles. Numerous drugs have specific coats that shield the medicine inside from getting destroyed by the stomach acid. However modern convention medicine also faces much controversy in recent years, causing many to return to a lot more organic techniques and alternative treatments. As an allergy sufferer, and sometimes even having a full-blown allergy attack for seemingly no explanation, I constantly maintain Benadryl on hand in our medicine supply.

By Bob Kerr
On the day after D-Day, the captain told Leo Heroux to ask the French farmer to move his cows from the field. It was no problem for Leo, who learned in English and in French at Notre Dame School and Sacred Heart Academy in Central Falls.
So he talked to the farmer, and the farmer moved his cows out of the way of the American troops. And the farmer and the soldier became friends.
"I would go up to that farmhouse every night," said Leo. "And one night I saw the most beautiful girl coming down the stairs."
She was Anne-Marie Broeckx, and Leo will admit that he was in love by the time she got to the bottom step.
So Leo had the war, in which he was an amphibious engineer, clearing beaches and building bridges and seeing horrible things. And he had the courtship of Anne-Marie, which continued by letter as his unit moved on through France and into Germany. And the courtship became transatlantic after Leo came home to Central Falls.
"We kept writing, and one day I asked, 'Do you want to marry me?' She said, 'Yes.'"
And shortly after the war, Anne Marie came from Colleville-sur-Mer to Central Falls, where she and Leo were married in Notre Dame Church.
Then, in a delightful twist on the wartime love story, Mr. and Mrs. Heroux moved to France in 1948, to the place very near the place where Leo landed on D-Day. Marie taught school. Leo taught the French how to drive. They raised two sons and two daughters.
And on Memorial Day every year, Leo visited the American cemetery in Normandy, which he saw being built. On June 6, he walked on Omaha Beach.
"I would go down to the beach and think, 'This is where I landed, right over there.'"
He is 90 now, living in Central Falls again, in a small apartment in Forand Manor. He moved back after Anne-Marie died in 1980. And he became one of the few, if not the only, person to be a driving instructor on both sides of the Atlantic.
His marriage to Anne-Marie and his life in France after the war, earned him a place in "The Longest Day," the 1959 book by Cornelius Ryan about the D-Day invasion.
And when filmmaker Tim Gray read the book and saw the name, he gave Leo a call.
"I was planning to take some D-Day veterans back to Normandy, and I called Leo and asked if he'd be interested in going back," said Gray.
And Leo became one of six local veterans of D-Day to go back and remember the things they did.
That was in 2006, and Gray was doing what he has done so brilliantly for several years. He was taking veterans back to the place where they were part of history. And he was making films of those dramatic, emotional returns to help us all understand the war better.
For Leo, of course, the return meant getting back to family. Their two sons and one daughter still live in the area. (Their other daughter lives in Montreal.)
"Most of the stories, they're more about combat," said Gray. "But Leo is unique. He still has family there. We took him back to where he met Anne-Marie, to the farm.
"In Normandy, nothing changes. We were calling Leo the mayor of Colleville."
Leo became part of Gray's film "D-Day: The Price of Freedom." It is a good film and he is proud of his part in it. Ask him about the movie of "The Longest Day" and he is not so kind. He has a word for it.
He would like to go to Normandy one more time, for the 70th anniversary of D-Day next month.
"But my feet give me problems," he said.
He says he will watch the anniversary ceremonies on television.
There are some reminders in his apartment. There is a "World War II Veteran" baseball hat with some unit pins attached. There is a big foldout picture of the American cemetery in Normandy, and Leo holds a newspaper photo from D-Day next to it to show the same place in peace and in war.
He was just 19 when he left Central Falls, not sure where he was going. He only knew a letter had arrived from Washington that said "Please report…."
He was one of four brothers, and he dropped out of school at 16 to go to work and help his family. He knew nothing of the war. But when his draft notice came, what he thought was going to be a working life in Central Falls was abruptly changed. He was off to Fort Devens in Massachusetts for basic training.
"There was a lot of exercise, running. I didn't mind it."
He sailed out of New York. He couldn't believe how many troops there were. In England, he saw the destruction from the German bombing.
"Oh, God," he said in reaction to what he saw.
On D-Day, he looked out at all the ships headed for France and thought them a beautiful sight.
But Omaha Beach was a horror that he is not about to describe.
"If I talk about it, people will say 'Leo's doing another story.'"
So there are no war stories. There are only small glimpses of the day that was the beginning of the war's end.
He remembers that German and American artillery shells made different sounds as they passed above the troops, and it didn't take long to be able to tell one from the other.
And one night, pinned down on the beach, he looked up.
"And what a beautiful fireworks I saw."
He pauses, shaking a finger at his memories and deciding that there are some things he will keep to himself. Leo is a private man, not given to getting together with other veterans. He doesn't think Americans know enough about what truly happened, about what it was like. But he doesn't want to be the one to tell them.
But he can and does talk about one part of his war because it is the good and beautiful part. It is Anne-Marie walking down the stairs of her father's farmhouse in Normandy and straight into a soldier's heart.
"One night I asked her if she would write a letter for me in French."
He thought it would be a way to get around the censors, to foil the lieutenant who opened all the outgoing letters and crossed out the bad parts.
But it was really just a way to be close and maybe fall in love a little more.
It worked. In a place that was at the very center of the war, with the horrors of combat just yards away, two people from very different places found the best way possible to deal with war's madness.
"I fell in love," said Leo. "It was love at first sight."

You can understand from the point of view of somebody in need for support to get his children educated. But, where should the money come from? I think a community should provide its members with the basic necessities to have a human-like live and to have chance to improve it. This requires education, housing, social and physical security. Those members who can afford it will have to pay for it. It falls back on the community if these members who can not support themselfes are left out. I currently live in the US and I pay taxes here. And I am OK with it although my kids will probably never go to school here and I certainly could use the money for something else. Matthias

On the first day of its annual Florida trip, Ashland University's softball team moved to 4-2 on the young season after a split of two games on Sunday (March 4).
In the second game of the day, the Eagles used a seven-run top of the fifth inning to defeat Wayne State (Neb.), 13-8. Junior third baseman Paige Summers had the big bat in the win, driving in five runs and going 2-for-5 with a double, while sophomore second baseman Camille Pollutro was 2-for-4 with a home run, three runs scored and two RBIs.
Junior center fielder Erika Farst, senior pitcher Paige McMenemy and junior left fielder Katie Mitchell each had two of AU's 12 hits, and Farst and Mitchell each crossed the plate three times.
McMenemy improved to 3-0 in the pitcher's circle, going the first 5 2/3 innings. Freshman Laney Jones finished the game with 1 1/3 scoreless frames.
To open the trip, the Eagles lost to Assumption, 6-5, on a run in the top of the seventh inning. Summers was 2-for-3 with a homer and two RBIs, while Farst was 2-for-4 with a triple, two runs scored and an RBI.
UP NEXT: Monday (March 5) vs. Concordia-St. Paul at 2 p.m. and Winona State at 4:30 p.m. in Florida.

"I worked for four different breweries in Germany; of those four three are no longer. The first one was Brauerei Schiff—'Ship'—and we had a very traditional brewery. We are talking a four-vessel brewhouse with a falloff tank—whatever that is in English—it's a fifth vessel. It had a cool ship, it was beautiful.
I mean, that brewery did about a quarter-million hectoliters. And what happened was the owner died and the widow couldn't run it and a brewery from Cologne bought it and they kind of ran it in the ground. The next brewery bought it up and I switched to that brewery and the next one bought this one up and I switched to that one."
Jürgen Knöller (left). Courtesy: Panamericana2012
"The next brewery I worked for, it was also a very old brewery, they did a really good one, too. It was from the Roden Brauerei. At the Schiff Brauerei we had Pirator—like a pirate—so we called it Pirator Bock. Anyway, what I did, I took from those two breweries, their doppelbocks. When I was looking at the technology available that I had—basically, what kind of machines do I have and what can those things do? You cannot take a Harley and run Superbike with it. You have to run it like a Harley. So what I did was I looked at the—I still had the formulations and everything of both beers—[and looked at my equipment]."
Here, in the way conversation flows but which is confusing sometimes in transcripts, Jürgen used the example of the Schiff design to explain why he couldn't replicate the process at his new American brewery.
"Some American breweries have a hopjack. Well we had a copper tank, vertical, that had a screen bottom like a lauter tun. All we were using was flower hops—and trust me, I have baled those things, 220 pounds those things, some of them were even bigger—and that was on the fifth story. Oh, and by the way, the brewery was five stories up and five stories down into the cellars. That's where you're really lean and mean, running up and down stairs all the time, pushing, and lifting and shoveling all day long. So with all those flower hops, we ran the hot wort over that so the hot break would be on top of the flower hops. Then we were running from there into a [long conjunct German word], next open mash where we were separating out the cold break and cooling it down in the cool ship. Well, the next brewery didn't have that, but it had some other interesting things."One of the things I found most interesting was a comment he made at the start of our conversation, which related directly to his formulation of Bayern Doppel Bock:
"So then I decided, huh, this is what I have to work with for machines, it's a fixed parameter, how do I get it across that I come up with the same product with what I got to work with? That's what we did."
"I started brewing beer in 1978 as an apprentice; I did my three years as apprentice and got my journeyman's certificate. I was working for another almost four years and then I got my masters degree. Now, when we were brewing back in those days back in Germany, I mean the Germans have always been the world-champions in efficiency and over the years—well, put it this way: I'm still brewing the German lager beers from 1985. When you go to Germany you have some of the older breweries that still brew the same way, but the bigger ones certainly don't do anymore. What's different between our beers here in general is that they're all probably a little bit stronger, a little bit darker, whereas in Germany they have gotten a lot lighter."
This is a fascinating phenomenon, and one I've been thinking about in relation to another brewery--Boston Beer. Jim Koch took his original Boston Lager recipe from an old family formulation that his great, great grandfather used in making Louis Koch Lager. I hope to talk to Jim and discuss it a bit, but think about how Louis would have brewed, trying to create an amber lager in America akin to those made in Germany with different malts and hops. It was German beer, sort of, but the shift to the US would have shifted the beer--different malts, different hops, different processes. I don't have any way to determine how closely Jim is able to get to his ancestor's recipe, but these are the kinds of stories that make the history of beer and the evolution of beer styles come alive.
