Hey all,
Back from my self-imposed exile. During the CCC I try not to comment on any entries to avoid any appearance of favoritism, but it kills me to keep silent. So at times in the past I have done general 'contest thoughts' threads: CCC II, CCC II vig category, CCC III, CCC IV, LEGO Castle Contest, CCC V, CCC VIII, to point out my praises and generally make all of the comments I would have made when individual MOCs were presented the first time. Those take a great deal of time, though, and so last year I turned to a different format, a 'MOC critiques' format. Tony did this for CCCV and CCC VI, and I did it for CCC X. Rather than simply praise the good, the idea here is to offer more constructive criticism and point out areas for improvement, upon request. Some ground rules:
1. I will only offer feedback to those who ask for it. Post your request in this thread.
2. Please only request one entry feedback per week, rather than just ask for feedback on everything. This is so I don't get completely swamped.
3. Please provide a link to your entry in your request.
4. If you ask for a critique, you have to be prepared that that critique might be negative. I want to try to highlight how a MOC could be improved, rather than just praise the good things.
5. Just a note - in some categories there were a lot of very high quality entries. So it's possible there's nothing particularly wrong with your entry, it might just be that another one was a little bit better (especially with multiple judges scoring, one judge might put entry A on top and another put entry B on top).
Note that I'm not trying to present myself as an expert MOCer here - I doubt I'd have been able to pull of an honorable mention given the high caliber of entries this year. I'm just a guy who has judged a lot of contests over the last decade and has looked at thousands of MOCs

South Bend Men Work at YMCAby Peter Horvath '92 • November 7, 2005 Share:
On October 29, 2005, ten volunteers from the St. Joseph Valley Association of Wabash Men participated in a service project at the South Bend chapter of the YWCA. Volunteers included Dick Barger, Allen Clingler, Carl Horneman, George Horvath, Peter Horvath, David Olson, Doug Piazza, Roger Senkbeil, Paul Tipps and Peter Trybula.
Beginning at 9:00 a.m., the volunteers worked primarily in the basement area of the YWCA, building large free-standing shelves and cabinets for storage purposes and moving desks. Additionally, a group of five volunteers cleared sod and dirt from an outside area that will eventually become a concrete sidewalk for an emergency exit.
It was a productive day and rewarding experience not just for the YWCA but for the ten volunteers from the SJVAWM. I fully believe that these same men would engage in similar projects in future years, and I hope that our volunteer corps would grow in the process.

Zapraszamy do Warszawy, and welcome to Warsaw! With InterNations, you can access our guides, tips, and advice while also finding other expats happy to share their experiences. Relocating to a new country can be daunting, but you'll find all the answers to your questions right here, from "do I need a work permit?" to "where's the best place to learn Polish?" and "where's the best Chinese restaurant?". We have a created a warm and secure community where expats in Warsaw can help each other. Warsaw is a magical city; a mixture of old and new, with the authentic reconstructed Old Town to explore and the enormous Lazienki Park offering year-round beauty. At InterNations, we want to make sure your relocation to this eclectic city is as seamless as possible.
With InterNations, you never stand alone. Whether you move to another city or go on a business trip somewhere — our communities are there to make you feel at home wherever you are in the world. Feel free to also check out our other vibrant InterNations Communities like the ones in Beijing or Khobar (Eastern Prov.).
Attend our monthly events and activities for Warsaw expatriates to get to know like-minded expatriates in real life.
Get trustworthy advice and local insights from fellow members in our Warsaw expat forums.
If you plan to work in Warsaw, you'll be pleased to know that the economy has been growing strongly in recent years. The services sector employs the majority of workers, and as a capital city there are career opportunities in the thriving tourism industry. If you plan to work face to face with the public you'll need a good understanding of Polish, and it would be beneficial to know some German, too, as spoken by the older generations. There are exceptions to those needing work permits, so make sure you look at our guide on working in Poland to find out if you qualify. When dining out, you'll find all your favorite international cuisine, from Sushi to Italian, but maybe you'd like to develop a taste for traditional, hearty Polish fare, too. The filled parcels known as Pierogi are firm favorites, as is the national dish, Bigos; a meat and vegetable stew. Traditional meals are typically made up of meat, vegetables, mushrooms and sausages, particularly good during those chilly Polish winters. To learn about the history of your new home, the Warsaw Uprising Museum tells the story of one of the most significant events to hit the capital during WW2, and there's a rich variety of culture to discover including Chopin's Warsaw Museum, the incredible Science Museum, and of course, Wilanow Palace standing at the end of the Royal Route. All of these sights will become familiar landmarks to you as you create your new life.
InterNations is the largest global network for expatriates, with communities in 420 cities across the globe. Get to know fellow internationals in your city, before you're moving, or when traveling somewhere and never feel like a stranger. InterNations makes it easy for you to stay in touch with your expat friends, both online and offline, so you can grow your network of friends and contacts from all over the world. Whether they live in Jeddah or Hong Kong, InterNations allows you to be close to them even if they are miles away.
While you settle in to Warsaw, don't forget that friends can make the transition easier — luckily, InterNations provides not only an online network, but also InterNations Groups and get-togethers to help members meet offline, too. Our expatriates hail from all over the world, and in Warsaw, you'll find like-minded friends in a range of InterNations Groups dedicated to cinema, theater, dance, swimming, fitness, tennis, singles, art, and nightlife to name just a few. We bid you a warm welcome to our Warsaw Community and hope to make your new life as enjoyable as possible.

Not your average recipe request here...
I've tried a few times to flavor 'natural' tobacco with honey, it has a lot of potential in my opinion BUT it's hygroscopic nature is a negative characteristic.
A few goofy questions if you don't mind....
-Will natural honey reach an equilibrium and stabilize it's affinity for moisture?
-Is there a temperature threshold that will damage honey?
-What variety of honey tends to have a lower ph? (this is based on my understanding that honey is acidic on the ph scale)
Odd questions perhaps but they are sincere. Any help is appreciated.

Mar 22, 2014
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.—Sophomore Duncan Bonney became Birmingham-Southern's first NCAA All-American swimmer this week, earning Honorable Mention All-America honors in two events at the 2014 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championship, hosted by IUPUI in Indianapolis, Ind.
After winning seven individual titles at the 2014 Southern Athletic Association Championship back in February, Bonney qualified for the Championship in three events. He competed in the 200-yard individual medley, 100-yard breaststroke, and 200-yard breaststroke. On Wednesday, March 19, he placed 12th in the 200 IM, and was 10th on Friday in the 100 breast, earning Honorable Mention All-America honors in both events. On Saturday he was 20th in the 200 breast preliminaries.

IYA2009 News Round-up
4 December 2009
THE NEWS doesn't slack off on Friday afternoons, so we can't either.
30 telescopes have been donated to students in the Greater Victoria school district, reports the Times Colonist. Gifted by the Victoria Centre of the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada, the description makes them sound like Galileoscopes, but that may be wishful thinking. The next headline for the area reads "Grants offered to local farmers". Maybe they'll use the cash for telescopes, too.
Let's all shake the Le Défi Media Group's hand, because they've written about an astronomy exhibition in Mauritius, but *begin* the article with THREE (3) paragraphs about IYA2009. Take note, all other publications in the world. The exhibition will run until mid-2010, and the Minister of Industry, Science and Research was present for the unveiling. Mauritius, you've done well!
Is there life on nearby worlds? No use asking me, I don't know. But why not attend UNH Durham's Physics Department lecture series about life in our Solar System, if you really want to know the answer. Fosters has details, including WHEN, WHERE, and whether LIGHT REFRESHMENTS will be available.
Run along now, to the Bournemouth Daily Echo. This British town was home to famous astrophysicist Sir Fred Hoyle. Councillor Ron Cooper wanted a blue plaque to be placed by Hoyle's former home so people would know the significance. This was put on the back burner, but Bournemouth's mayor has now announced that it will be unveiled on Thursday, so the event will occur during IYA2009. That's a result.
Zenit is the world seen from Rome. What have they been seeing this week? A Galileo-themed conference held by the Pontifical Lateran University. It's part of IYA2009 celebrations, and aims to clear up some myths that surround Galileo and his relationship with the Church.
If you want to parteeeee, then head to Germany. At least, that's the message that Canada.com is spreading. Just outside Essen is an exhibition called Out of this World, apparently to celebrate "Germany's Year of Astronomy". We've been dramatically downsized? Must have missed that e-mail. The article says "Suspended in the middle of the darkened Gasometer is the world's largest replica moon with a diameter of 25 metres." So if you want to see the world's largest replica Moon in the middle of a darkened Gasometer, get there NOW.

Madonna used her appearance at the 24th annual GLAAD Media Awards on Saturday to take aim at the Boy Scouts of America organization's anti-gay stance by donning its traditional uniform as she presented newsman Anderson Cooper with a special award.
The popular broadcaster and TV host, who confirmed he was gay last year, was honored with the Vito Russo Award, which is presented to an openly lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender media professional who has made "a significant difference in promoting equality", and is named after a founder of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation.
The Material Girl took to the stage in New York to present Cooper with the top honor, and couldn't help but court controversy with her onstage ensemble – a swipe at the Boy Scouts' ban on openly gay and transgender leaders.
Donning the shorts, shirt and hat worn by members of the Boy Scouts of America, the gay icon told the audience, "I wanted to be a Boy Scout, but they wouldn't let me join. I think that's f– up. I can build a fire. I know how to pitch a tent. I have a very good sense of direction. I can rescue kittens from trees. Listen, I wanna do (good) for the community."
Madonna then welcomed Cooper onstage and planted a huge kiss on the red-faced reporter's lips.
The newsman turned serious as he gave a nod to all the same-sex rights activists who came before him, saying, "I am only here tonight because I've benefited from what they and so many others have done… being gay is certainly one of the greatest blessings… it opened my head and heart in ways that I never could have predicted."
Previous recipients of the Vito Russo Award include Rosie O'Donnell, Sir Elton John and Tom Ford.

Church Budget
We publish updates on our financial status throughout the year. A final annual report is published every Fall.
These figures represent the grace of God at work in the members and friends of our local church. It's unmistakable. God is being kind towards us and we want to thank Him and you.

Thank you for living no longer for yourselves but for God and your neighbor!
May the accounting of His provisions encourage your faith. Please continue to pray that we would steward it all for the advance of His gospel and the good of His church.

Travel Reimbursement
Travel reimbursement
If you must travel further than 15 miles to see a health care provider, you can get reimbursed for some of your travel expenses.
To be reimbursed, your trip must fulfill all these requirements:
- The provider must be further than 15 miles one way from your home (30 miles round trip).
- There aren't any providers closer to you that could treat your condition.
- You get the travel reimbursement preauthorized by your claim manager.
These requirements are only for travel reimbursement. You can still see any health care provider listed in our online directory, but your travel expenses won't be covered if you don't meet these requirements.
You can't get reimbursed for travel if:
- there is an adequate provider within 15 miles of your home, but you just prefer to go to a provider further away;
- you see a provider, but you didn't get preauthorization from your claim manager for the travel reimbursement; or
- you are just visiting a pharmacy to fill or pick up prescriptions.
You can get reimbursed for:
- the mileage you have to go to reach the provider, minus the first and last 15 miles (30 miles round trip); and
- parking, tolls, and some other expenses. See the Travel Reimbursement Request form for details (F245-145-000).
Questions workers have
How do I apply for reimbursement?
|If your claim is managed by ...
|You must ...
|a self-insured employer
|Request reimbursement directly from your employer or their claims representative.
How much is the travel reimbursement?
The current rate is $0.58 per mile.Check the state reimbursement rates for other expenses: Reimbursement Rates for Lodging, Meals, and Privately Owned Vehicle Mileage (25 KB PDF) (www.ofm.wa.gov).
How do I find out the distance to a provider?
Search for providers near you at Lni.wa.gov/FindADoc. Depending on how far from your home you search, the search results will show estimated distance a little differently:
|If you search for providers ...
|Then we'll show you an estimate of ...
|within 15 miles
|the distance to each provider as you would drive.
|further than 15 miles away
|the distance to each provider "as the crow flies."
Independent medical exam (IME): Can I get travel costs reimbursed?
If your claim manager requests that you go to an IME and the IME is further than 15 miles from your home, you will be reimbursed travel costs, including the first and last 15 miles of a round trip.
If you now live out of state, you may have to return to Washington State for an IME. If needed, L&I or your self-insured employer will pay for your transportation, lodging, meals, and wage replacement for lost wages to attend the exam.
Vocational services and retraining: Can I get travel costs reimbursed?
Yes, mileage for meetings requested by your vocational rehabilitation counselor (VRC) may be reimbursed. In addition, some travel costs that are approved in your vocational plan may be reimbursed.
Orthotic/prosthetic repairs after claim closure: Can I get travel costs reimbursed?
Yes, reasonable travel expenses may be reimbursed if you need to get your orthotic/prosthetic appliance repaired after your claim is closed. Hearing aids are not included. The appliance must be originally purchased by L&I or your self-insured employer.
What if I live or move out of state?
You may have to travel a greater distance to receive care for your claim. If so, payment for some travel costs may be considered if the travel is preapproved by your claim manager. You won't be paid if your claim manager doesn't preapprove your travel.
If you're thinking of moving out of Washington, learn what you can do to communicate with L&I and find new care.

In South America, the mapping and coding of the region's watersheds carried out under IUCN's Water and Nature Initiative is changing the way river basins are managed at the local level and should help cross-border conservation efforts.
IUCN's Regional Office for South America recently launched the 'Water for Nature' web portal, which makes South America and Amazon Basin hydrographic unit maps freely available online.
The watershed delineation and coding project began in 2008 with the production of the South American watershed map. Brazil and Peru have officially adopted the standard mapping methods and Ecuador's National Water Secretariat is looking at using it across the country.
"The portal uses tools and technologies that help the free exchange of and access to geographic information over the Internet," says IUCN consultant Jorge Villa. "We believe that it is important to provide users with free access to these maps, which can be overlaid with other maps on a global scale," he added.
"Between 60% and 80% of South America is covered by shared watersheds. We are certain that having a standard delineation and coding system for hydrographic units will help conserve cross-boundary watersheds," says IUCN Water Coordinator Mario Aguirre.

Looking fabulous is often a top priority for both the bride and groom. Today I'm going to share some gorgeous wedding shoes some of our brides have worn. Enjoy!
The City Bride
The famous red sole is a perfect pair to any wedding dress. These round toed Christian Louboutins are truly one of a kind but for a slightly cheaper traditional pair of white slippers head over to Benjamin Adams
The Chic Bride
These sexy open toed sling backs were designed by the king of shoes: Jimmy Choo. A coloured wedding shoe is very sexy, fun, and playful. For a cheaper alternative to a coloured slingback head over to Rainbow Club
The Glamorous Bride
For the queen of crystals and all things bling there's nothing better then sliding on a diamante encrusted shoe. These stunning shoes are bride worthy and deserve as much attention as the bride herself (well, almost!). These shoes are from Gucci but those on a budget can find crystal wedding shoes at Dunes.
The Traditional Bride
Strappy Jimmy Choo sandals are a perfect finish to a silk satin gown that flows beautifully in the wind. Many modern brides choose strappy sandals but they're not for everyone. For a cheaper alternative to Jimmy Choo try Dunes Shoes.
The Classic Bride
These gorgeous Stuart Weitzmans are perfect for a bride who wants to have a little edge on the traditional look.
Try Elegant Steps for a budget friendly classic shoe
The Bold Bride
We just love her! A bride that matches her shoes and lipstick is full of life and attitude. Coloured shoes make for great photographs and can help enhance a personality

FULLERTON, Calif. -- The 11-time defending national champion Cal State Fullerton Dance Team heads to Orlando, Fla., this weekend in search of an even dozen as the Titans compete at the 2013 UDA/UCA Collegiate National Competition at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex on Saturday (Jan. 19).
In the Division I Jazz competition, Fullerton joins 20 other teams from around the nation in the semifinal round which begins at 12:30 p.m. PT. Approximately 10 finalists will be culled from the group for the final round later that evening at 5:30 p.m. PT with an awards ceremony to follow at 6:45 p.m. PT.
"These girls have been working so hard to bring back title number 12," Head Coach Jennie Volkert said. "Along with coach Kenndra Alvarez, who choreographed the competition routine, they began practice at the beginning of November and, once December came along, they have practiced every single day, whether it be morning, noon, night, or at Cal State Fullerton home events. These girls have the dedication and determination to bring back the gold. I can't wait to see them take the competition floor and make Cal State Fullerton proud."
Live coverage of select divisions, as well as video coverage, behind the scenes galleries, as well as the final results, will be posted at Varsity.com throughout the competition. Fans can also stay in touch by following @UCAupdates and @UDAnews on Twitter.
The Dance Team features 15 girls -- 11 veterans and four newcomers -- for the 2012-13 season.
"We've come so far this year as a team," said three-year veteran and team captain junior Krysten Dorado. "We've poured our blood, sweat, and tears into long nights of consistent practices together. 'Eleven-time National Champs" has followed us all year long and we are ready to take on another title to become 12-Time National Champs. Our competitors this year are fired up and ready to take our title away from us, but we are continuing to fight even harder to uphold our legacy."
"My coaches and teammate's hard work and dedication has made my experience as a Titan dance team member unforgettable," said Katie Mau, a junior transfer from Orange Coast College. "The love and support from each and every person is remarkable and has given me the opportunity to continue to do what I love the most -- dance!"
"Being a member of Cal State Fullerton's Dance Team has given me a wonderful opportunity to be part of a unique Titan Family," freshman Holly Stephens said. "As a team, we work so hard and support each other to achieve our goal of a National Title at UDA Nationals. Entering the squad as the only freshman in the spring was really intimidating, but the girls took me in their arms and led the way. In the fall, I was joined by another freshman to complete our team. I couldn't have asked for anything more. I am honored and proud to be a CSUF Dance Team member."
"Being a part of the CSUF Dance Team has been one of the best experiences of my life," said freshman Brooke Cooper. "I am so blessed to have such amazing and caring coaches and motivating teammates. I've learned that in order to dance as a team, we have to have faith in each other... that is exactly what my team has!"

The Hessian matrix $\{\partial_i \partial_j f \}$ of a function $f:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$ depends on the coordinate system you choose. If $x_1,\cdots,x_n$ and $y_1,\cdots,y_n$ are two sets of coordinates (say, in some open neighborhood of a manifold), then $\frac{\partial f(y(x))}{\partial x_i} = \sum_{k} \frac{\partial f}{\partial y_k} \frac{\partial y_k}{\partial x_i}$. Differentiating again, this time with respect to $x_j$, we get $\frac{\partial^2 f(y(x))}{\partial x_i \partial x_j} = \sum_{k} \sum_{l} \frac{\partial^2 f}{\partial y_k \partial y_l} \frac{\partial y_l}{\partial x_j} \frac{\partial y_k}{\partial x_i}+\frac{\partial f(y(x))}{\partial y_k}\frac{\partial^2y}{\partial x_i \partial x_j}$. At a critical point, the second term goes away, so we will consider such a case.
In other words, if the derivative is a differential $1$-form, i.e. $\sum_{i} \frac{\partial f}{\partial x_i} dx_i$, a section of the cotangent bundle, then the second derivative should be $\sum_{k,l} \frac{\partial^2 f(y(x))}{\partial y_k \partial x_l} dy_k \otimes dy_l$. This makes sense since $dy_k=\sum_{i} \frac{\partial y_k}{\partial x_i} dx_i$, and $dy_l=\sum_{j} \frac{\partial y_l}{\partial x_j} dx_i$, meaning that $\sum_{k,l} \frac{\partial^2 f(y(x))}{\partial y_k \partial x_l} dy_k \otimes dy_l = \sum_{k,l} \frac{\partial^2 f(y(x))}{\partial y_k \partial x_l} (\sum_{i} \frac{\partial y_k}{\partial x_i} dx_i) \otimes (\sum_{j} \frac{\partial y_l}{\partial x_j} dx_j) = \sum_{i,j,k,l} \frac{\partial^2 f(y(x))}{\partial y_k \partial x_l} \frac{\partial y_k}{\partial x_i} \frac{\partial y_l}{\partial x_j} dx_i dx_j = \sum_{i,j} \frac{\partial^2 f}{\partial x_i \partial x_j}$, making it coordinate independent. Note that I did not use exterior powers, I used tensor powers, since I wanted to actually find a way to make sense of second derivatives, rather than having $d^2=0$. This means the Hessian should be a rank $2$ tensor ((2,0) or (0,2), I can't remember which, but definitely not (1,1)).
Does this make sense? Can we then express the third, etc, derivative as a tensor? More interestingly, how can this help us make sense of Taylor's formula? Can we come up with a coordinate-free Taylor series of a function at a point on a manifold?
EDIT: An in general, if the first $n$ derivatives vanish, then the $n+1$ derivative should be a rank $n+1$ tensor, right?

Former allies face off in North Hempstead town clerk race
North Hempstead Town Clerk Leslie Gross recalled that when she held a fundraiser on Super Bowl Sunday in February, her Democratic colleague, Nassau County Legis. Wayne Wink, introduced her as the "best town clerk the town has ever had."
Wink, who now is running against Gross for the job, said he does not remember using those exact words, but concedes, "I'm sure I said some nice things about her."
While politics often makes strange bedfellows, this race between two former Democratic allies is stranger still.
Wink, 46, of Roslyn, was reapportioned out of his legislative district in March. He launched a campaign for county comptroller, but withdrew on May 20.
Gross, 61, of Manhasset, will remain a Democrat but is running on the Republican line. In April, she read a newspaper article in which Democratic Party leaders declined to say whether they intended to nominate her for a third term. She said that with no Democratic nomination in hand, she accepted GOP overtures to join that ticket on May 21. A day later, Wink jumped into the town clerk contest.
Town clerk is an administrative position with no policy-making role. The clerk keeps town records, issues death certificates and can officiate at weddings. The salary is $95,000 a year.
Republicans are trying to create sympathy for Gross by portraying her as a woman scorned by her own party. "Democrats are trying to give Wayne Wink a booby prize," said Frank Moroney, town GOP chairman. "While we have Leslie Gross who loves her job, and for her it's the brass ring."
Democrats say Gross had conflicts with many in Town Hall, disclosed sensitive information to Republican officials and created behind-the-scenes problems for the party on several patronage appointments -- leaving her with little support among party activists.
"Leslie has done an adequate job serving the public but has a lot of problems of her own making which have caused a lot of dissension in Town Hall," said Wink. "She has squandered her opportunity to be a goodwill ambassador."
Gross said she simply has tried to run a nonpartisan office. "The people of North Hempstead are very bright. They don't like the nasty stuff and I have the skills and qualifications to serve everyone," she said.
Jay Jacobs, Nassau Democratic chairman, said Gross will give Wink a "tough race" because she is a long-term incumbent with name recognition. She was appointed clerk in April 2007 and first won election later that year.
But Democratic officials say Wink, a lawyer, has an advantage because of the Democratic voter registration edge -- there are 62,831 Democrats, 46,382 Republicans and 38,623 who have no party affiliation, according to the Nassau Board of Elections -- and his more than a decade in office as a town board member and county lawmaker.
Unlike the rest of the GOP ticket, Gross will not have the Conservative ballot line, while Wink is seeking the Working Families and Independence Party lines.
"From my point of view, being a Republican or a Democrat is not interchangeable, based on opportunity," Jacobs said.
Wink tried to minimize any direct clash with Gross. "I'm running for an office, not against any particular individual," he said. "I'm running to be the best town clerk North Hempstead has ever had."

While it is fun to go out to Smuggler's Cove, I find I have a semi-low tolerance for tropical drinks.
Fortunately, Martin Cate's menu encompasses more than just Exotic drinks. In fact, it is nearly a cross section of Rum Cocktails from the beginning of their history to the present day.
For example, the other day I rather enjoyed the Black Prince, which could only be described as a rum version of the NY "brown, bitter, and stirred".
According to the Smuggler's Cove menu it is, "A dark and complex concoction consisting of aged Guatemalan rum, Punt e Mes, Averna, and orange bitters. Created by Phil Ward at Death & Co. in NYC, this is an excellent showcase of rum's versatility."
In fact I enjoyed it so much, I decided to try to replicate it at home!
I don't know the exact recipe, and also don't have Punt e Mes in the house at the moment, but found this version of the drink quite enjoyable.
1 1/2 oz Zacapa 23
3/4 oz Carpano Antica
1/2 oz Averna
1 dash Regan's Orange Bitters, 1 dash Fee's Orange Bitters
Stir with ice and strain into a cocktail glass.
Hm, while I liked the Punt e Mes version at Smuggler's Cove a lot, I think I may like it a bit more with Carpano Antica, as it is not quite so sweet. Gonna have to give it a try again when I get Punt e Mes back in the house.
If anyone knows the exact recipe, drop me a note or comment.
Thanks to Matt Browner Hamlin for the proper Black Prince, straight from Phil Ward:
2 oz dark aged rum
0.75 oz Punt e Mes
0.5 oz Averna
Dash orange bitters
Stir and strain into a cocktail glass. Garnish with an orange twist.
