There seems to be an abundance of new, designer gins available and I am ready to try something new. My regular is Bombay Sapphire. Any one have any recommendations for a great gin martini?
re: Mari
Would have to 2nd Hendrick's (not sure how new it is), got a bottle for an old pal's BD that's a die-hard gin fan and he loved it, he also liked the bottle I got for him last year, Hampton's ??? (green w/ an orange top, hard to miss). One that I've been unable to find that's supposed to be great is Broker's, it's British and the cap is a derby... still waiting.
re: PolarBear
Brokers, the one with the derby, is pretty good as well, but not as good as Hendricks or Plymouth. Also Millers is interesting if you like cucumber. It has a strong cucumber taste with a hint of floral, rose I think.
re: JMF
Hmmm... Miller's sounds interesting especially since I'm looking forward to a trip to New Orleans and having a Pimm's Cup which supposedly is garnished with a slice of cucumber, wonder if there is any connection. And yes, it was three years ago that I turned my pal on to Plymouth. Have to say as a vodka devotee, I've liked all three of these (Hendrick's, Hampton's, Plymouth) gins in a dry martini.
re: PolarBear
Brokers is available at Nob Hill Grocery in the SF Bay Area.
re: FrankJBN
Not that new anymore, though they are really advertising it.
re: FrankJBN
How can it be new when Mari mentioned it 7 years ago?
If you can find it, Junipero from the Anchor Brewing Co. in
San Francisco is very, very good. If you're making a martini
out of it, it might be worth skipping the vermouth and olive.
re: Antwerp
Chilled gin alone makes chilled gin, not a martini. :)
re: Antwerp
Junipero is pretty good if you really like an overwhelming juniper berry taste/aroma... none of the the other botanicals seem to come through.
I was really impressed with Hendricks. It is 'super crisp' and 'super dry' to quote the Asahi slogan, and as I recall lets the aromatics really show.
Well you have gotten plenty of fine gin recs so I will skip that area but add my vote for Plymouth or Hendricks (though I will mention that saphire is a less juniper intensive gin so pick accordingly for your upgrade). I have the Junipero in the house now and it is much more intesnsely Junipe flavored and very spicy.
So what are you using, if anything, for vermouth. If you have a skanky old bottle of generic vermouth, try to find some Noilly Pratt or the more upscale Vya. Try old school wet martinis say 2:1 or even 1:1 then look for a bottle of orange bitters and try a dash of that in there.
Or perhaps try Degroffs version of the original Martinez cocktail:
1.5 gin
1.0 vermouth
1 dash angostura
2 dashes Maraschino
Don't worry, that big bottle of Maraschino will go down faster when you add the Aviation coctail to your happy hour.
2.0 gin
0.5 lemon juice
0.5 Maraschino
My other current gin fave is Corpse Reviver # 2
0.75 gin
0.75 cointreau
0.75 Lillet Blanc (which subbed for vermouth makes an interesting martini as well)
0.75 lemon juice
and just a few drops of Absinthe for a background flavor note.
Also worth a try are
the Delilah
1.5 gin
0.75 lemon juice
0.75 Cointreau
2.0 gin
1.0 Cointreau
0.5 lime juice (or muddle some wedges)
Angostura bitters to taste and optional orange bitters to taste
re: Nathan P.
The best use I've found for Junipero, beyond iced shots, is:
1.0 Junipero
1.0 Sweet vermouth
1.0 Campari
Squeeze of orange.
Plymouth distillery gives a great tour, if you ever happen to be
in that part of the world.
re: Antwerp
Yeah I agree. The junipero has a real punch that cuts through the vermouth and campari better than any other gin I have tried. I recently picked up a bottle of Carpano's Antica Formula Vermouth which adds another whole level of complexity to the drink. Its almost hard to tell it is the same cocktail -worth a try if you can find it or sub its cousin the punt e mes. Is the Plymouth Navy strength worth searching for? I only see the regular around here.
And if you are ever in SF the Anchor brewery does a great tour. I don't know if you get to see the still but I managed to get an invitation to an industry night where I got a private tour that included checking out the stills for the production of gin and their ryes.
re: Nathan P.
John D. MacDonald's Travis McGee series has Travis favoring Plymouth gin. Here's his "McGee Special Martini" from PALE GRAY FOR GUILT, p.21.
"...a familiar face was working the quiet and elegant bar, and he remembered The Drink, and seemed so pleased with himself in remembering, that we each had one, sitting and watching the deftness with silent and respectful attention. Two ample old-fashioned glasses, side by side, filled to the two thirds line with cracked ice. A big, unmeasured slosh of dry sherry into each glass. Then swiftly, the strainer placed across the top of one and then the other, as with a delicate snap of the wrist he dumped the sherry down the drain. Then fill to the ice level with Plymouth gin, rub the lemon peel around the inside of the rim, pinch some little floating beads of citrus oil on the surface of the drink, throw away the peel, present with small tidy bow and flourish to the folk. 'Two McGees,' said he."
re: Sharuf
Yes... as a McGee fan I remember that quote... and tried it an liked it, although his real favorite was iced mugs of plain Plymouths on the rocks. Once I read that I tried gin on the rocks and never went back to a martini. Just plain gin for me... an "Extra, Extra Dry Martini"
re: Sharuf
I've read all the Travis McGee novels. Didn't he switch to Boodles for a while?
re: Jim Washburn
Hmmm... I can't remember that but possibly. Plymouth wasn't exported to the US for many years and only has been again for a few years, and the price has doubled in the past two years.
re: Jim Washburn
Yes, Travis switched to Boodles.
Travis' usual at-home drink was Plymouth gin, until in 1974 the inevitable happened. Here is how MacDonald tells it in THE DREADFUL LEMON SKY, p.32. "I...broke out the very last bottle of the Plymouth gin which had been bottled in the United Kingdom. All the others were bottled in the U.S. Gin People, it isn't the same. It's still a pretty good gin, but it is not a superb, stingingly dry, and lovely gin. ...There is something self-destructive about Western technology and distribution. Whenever any consumer object is so excellent that it attracts a devoted following, some of the slide rule and computer types come in on their twinkle toes and take over the store, and in a trice they figure out just how far they can cut quality and still increase the market penetration... Thus the very good things of the world go down the drain, from honest turkey to honest eggs to honest tomatoes. And gin."
I have since heard that the Plymouth Gin co. has been purchased by caring people, and the product restored to its former excellence.
re: Nathan P.
I thought a Martinez has to have Sweet Vermouth? Maybe Degroff's version is different or you just missed adding "sweet". Also, a proper Aviation cocktail needs to have a creme de violet element to make it the right color, i. e. the sky color.
re: SeltzerHead
I favor the Gibson myself, though it's really a differnt drink--especially if, like me, you prefer the sweet variety of cocktail onion to the more savory kind. As for who makes the best cocktail onions, I have to confess I don't know, and don't even know how to determine from the bottle which will be sweet and which will be savory. I go through them so slowly (sadly enough) that I don't end up buying them with enough frequency to remember or learn anything.
As for the main question, Hendrick's is great (not that new, though) and I've always liked Tanquery Ten too. Haven't had Plymouth in a while so I'll have to revisit based on the enthusiasm for it here. I've recently been enjoying Citadelle pretty well. If one can get over the un-ginlike fact that it's made in France and any suspicion that its relatively low cost means it's no good, it's got a nicely distinctive light floral quality that I enjoy. Not sure how it'd go with a regular martini--it might be out of sync with the heavier salty qualities that the olive imparts. But it works well with a sweet-onion
Let me also thank the poster who gave the recipe for the Delilah for reminding me of it. Thanks to him too for mentioning the Aviation. My requests for that drink are too often met with blank stares or disastrous results (though it is, in fairness, hard to do well in my opinion), and maybe some more publicity for it will make these experiences less frequent.
re: SeltzerHead
Considering this is chowhound, I would think the standard would be homemade pickled frogs leg shallots or soemthing like that. I'm a twist man myself so never shop for onions.
re: Nathan P.
The late, semi-great Lucius Beebe declared that "any martini drier than 5 to 1 is just iced gin!" and I concur. I insist on the vermouth being an actual ingredient, not merely an unfounded rumor; I've had young bartenders almost break into tears when I demanded that they pour the vermouth into the shaker (yes, shaker, please!) instead of just rinsing out the glass with it. "You're making me RUIN it!" they cry. "Put a sock in it, sonny," I tell'em. "No, on second thought, make that an olive..."
re: Will Owen
I think it is a combo of the modern supersize everything (including alcohol) mentality plus the popularity of vodka. Vodka has no particular affinity for vermouth so the drink shifted to just cold vodka. Now we drinkers of delicous real martinis suffer from the old bottle of vermouth that has been dispensing 3 drops of vermouth into martinis for the last 9 months! I just ignore the strange looks I get from bartenders- just like I ignore there confused look when I ask if they have bitters for my Manhattan.
re: Nathan P.
If the bastards don't have bitters, it's time to find another bar.
re: JMF
on contrare mon frere- you didn't like the vermouth because it was crappy vermouth, most likely not kept refrigerated and most likely the mass produced sloff they pass off as vermouth. as a reader mentioned in 2006 the Carpano Antica is where you want your vermouth to land (italian) or Dolin or even Vya- available at very fine liquor establishments
it will help you rediscover the joy of the true martini
re: JMF
Caught in a time warp. Now that JMF is making his own spirits and bitters, it would be interesting to see if his affection for the Martini has returned. But then I like vermouth.

re: EvergreenDan
Wow! Just came across this post. Boy have my tastes changed over the past seven years since Jan. 2006. And my knowledge of spirits and cocktail ingredients. My comment above was just as I started my present adventure. tobinsmith you are right on the money. I had never had a good, or fresh, vermouth. By October of that year I was a professional writer focused on food and drink. By March 2007 I was being asked to enter my cocktail creations in competitions, and my recipes were being put on big brands websites.
Now I like my martini's with a good vermouth. Dolin is one of my favs. I also like them 3:1 or 2:1 gin to vermouth, and only stirred for at least 35 seconds. But I still love gin on the rocks with a splash of water.
By the way, let's get our terminology straight here. We are talking about the most refined spirit here, although it originally started out more as a medical tonic and liquor for the masses. When talking about Martini's... If it's made with gin it's a Martini... if made with vodka it's a Vodka Martini... if made with anything else... it's not a Martini! It's a strained cocktail, straight up, served in a martini glass.
Of course who ever designed the Martini Glass wasn't the worlds best designer. It's the absolutely wrong glass for a martini. The walls are thin so the drink has to be drunk fast before it warms up, and a martini is a sipping drink. Also the sloped shape makes it hard to drink from. It tends to slop all over, especially after the second one of the night.
A martini would probably be more effective in a thick walled, tulip shaped glass that would keep it cold, and concentrate the aroma of all those great botanicals.
re: Nathan P.
My old cocktail glasses (similar to those Nick and Nora were seen drinking) are 2-1/2 or 3 ounces and from what I've read, weren't meant to be filled to the rim.
re: K. McB.
Yep- I think this also explains the 3 martini lunch. Three 6 oz modern martinis with no vermouth in them and I would be lucky to be able to find my way out of the restaurant.
re: mod'ern
So, why the shape of the cocktail glass?
I thought it was to dissapate the fumes of hard liquor. Taking a good whiff of hard alcohol would knock you socks off.
I took a quick look to see if the glass makers like Riedel were doing anything different with martini/cocktail glasses and they were not.
Surprisingly, Reidel, the maker of the stemless wine glass doesn't seem to be going to the stemless martini glass cradled in a chiller/holder.
The other legend behind the cocktail glass is that it orgininated during prohibition so you could drink the cocktail in three quick sips if there was a raid. And going back to that period, cheap hooch was disguised with the flavor of juniper berries, bath tub gin, so that goes back to a glass where no one really would want to be savouring the fumes of what they were drinking. That wasn't the point.
I think there's a certain Hollywood glamour that lingers with it ... Nick and Nora, Fred and Ginger, Dean, Frank, Sammy and the boys. Sort of like those old 50's movies with the shallow bowl champagne glasses.
Maybe with the boutiquing of gin, the shape of the glass will change to take advantage of the drink.
Or does it matter? And why? Can anybody explain? I've been fascinated by this ever since I discovered Ian Fleming's novels as a kid. I asked scores of people about this and never could get a satisfactory answer. "Don't bruise the gin!" the stirrers inevitably replied. Say what? I asked the very famous head bartender of the Willard Hotel in Washington DC, and he described a procedure he called "agitated" which, he said, combined the best of both (put a stirrer beween your palms and rub vigourously)
re: Brian S
Actually, a martini should be stirred not shaken. If you shake it, there is a good chance little shavings of ice will break off and find their way into your glass. I also recall seeing a show where they mentioned that shaking a martini also leaves the drink slightly cloudy.
re: Evan
Leave it to the British Science establishment...
re: WLA
This is interesting in a completely meaningless way. And I think I'd be stupider for having read this were I not also a collector of useless facts.
So now I know that a martini shaken for 1 minute is better at neutralizing hydrogen peroxide.
Next time I'm about to ingests some H202, I'll sure to 007.
re: mod'ern
When I saw the subject I recalled hearing about this study at sometime or another. Google found it in a split second for me. Google for President.
The only argument that makes any sense for shaking rather than stirring is that it imparts more coldness to the drink. Otherwise I don't care how they give me that ability to take the first sip that makes the world go away for an instant in time...
re: WLA
Agreed. I'm a purist in most martini details -- I need a 3- or 4-to-1 gin to vermouth ratio,and small cocktail glasses -- but so long as it's COLD I don't care if it's shaken or stirred. Any fizz or cloudiness disappears within seconds, and I have no problem with a teeny icy shard or two. But I'm sick of watching my drink lightly stirred and poured without any chance to get cold enough to hold the temperature. So, if the drink isn't prepared by someone who knows what she's doing, I tend to fare much better off with the shaken drink.
At home, I do either or.
re: K. McB.
Let me just endorse your emphasis on the importance of temperature. As Baker says in The Gentleman's Companion, "cold drinks must be served *arctic* cold." This is never more true than in the case of the martini, in my opinion.
re: Nathan P.
Hmmm, my shaken one's (using large enough cubes) are cloudy only briefly in the glass them become perfectly clear. I usually use water filtered in a Brita to make the ice, wonder if that matters?
re: PolarBear
Briefly, that describes how long it takes me to finish one! :)
You have brought up another key coctail issue: ice. The size and shape have a huge difference in the rate of dilution and chilling you get when you make a drink. Energy efficient ice makes bad drinks- watery or not cold enough. I have had to abandon the small cubes in my current fridge and pulled out a bigger tray. Would love to know if anyone has a source for super-huge-ice cube trays?
re: Brian S
Stirred. And you can't "bruise" gin either.
re: Brian S
Clear drinks should be stirred. There are multiple reasons for this. Some had already mentioned the little bits of ice that get into the drink when shaken. Another reason not to shake your martini is that a good vigorous shaking will give the drink a little bit of effervescence, which will disrupt the texture of a really good martini.
re: Brian S
In various postings below it will be seen that the shaken martini is deprecated for being (a) clouded with tiny shards of ice and (b) rendered somewhat effervescent by the process. To which I humbly submit that I rather like those so-called defects, and find that they add to my enjoyment of the Martini Experience.
I do not have these things in my usual martini, because (I'm being embarrasingly frank here) I keep my gin and my martini glasses in the freezer, and my vermouth and olives in the fridge, and when I suddenly feel the urge for a martini I just take everything out and combine it with neither ritual nor any particular effort. But running the stuff through a shaker does have the character of an Occasion, and I do like the result.
re: Brian S
I took a bartending course a long time ago and the proper Martini is definitely NOT shaken. It is simply an eccentricity of the Bond character. Which is no reason not to shake it if you want!
re: Brian S
After trying both (too many times to count), I definitely preferred a stirred martini. I find that shaking dilutes the drink too much. I shudder whenever I see a shaker emerge at the bar.
I loved an episode of the West Wing where President Bartlett was on a rant about how a perfect martini should be made. Somebody raised the question about shaking beacause of James Bond and Bartlett's response was, "The guy's ordering a diluted drink and being snotty about doing it!!"
Still gives me a chuckle.
By the way, my new favorite gin for martinis is Miller's. I'm still order Sapphire when I'm out, but at home, I choose Millers for the lovely floral notes.
re: Brian S
The Grubman has been drinking martinis (or gin rocks) for approximately 134 years. Here's the deal on the shaken/stirred question.
If you enjoy the taste & kick of your gin -- whatever it may be -- diluted (or not) w vermouth, then pour over ice cubes, stir gently & transfer to a cocktail glass.
If you wish to enjoy the taste of your gin, but knock off the initial edge, then pour into shaker w a few cubes of cracked, not ever crushed, ice. Shake vigorously for all of 5 seconds & transfer to your cocktail glass. Pretty much the same taste as the stirred version w/o the shudder.
Hendrick's it was. A bit aromatic, compared to my regular Sapphire. Dry but not without vermouth, olives-two small. Shaken, though crystal clear and thank god no ice chips. When I lived in Dallas I had to specify that no, I do not want a martini slurpee.
Lame bartender didn't even know whether Hendricks was stocked and had to look in the closet before he saw the bottle behind the bar. Next stop Plymouth and Junipero.
re: Chris Rising
Congrats on finding something new. At home I tend to buy whatever interesting gin is on sale when I run out. Recently, the BevMo chain in CA had Plymouth on sale for like $13 (its $20-$22 at my locals) so it became a fixture at my house. Enough martini talk though. I drinking this as I type:
1.5 oz Junipero
0.75 oz Noilly Pratt
3 drops of Fees Orange Bitters
Super Tasty
Cheers Everyone
re: Nathan P.
Plymouth for $13??? I'm getting in the car right now... oh crap, they'll be closed by the time I get there. Will have to check the local outlet in the morning. Thanks for the tip.
re: BlueHerons
Bombay Saphire is actually a pretty mild and flavorless gin. Marketed as a top level gin, it has a refined taste, ie., flavorless, but a marked absense of botanicals, which are what gin is all about. It just can't compete against some of the craft gins and unique ones such as the very old Plymouth, Hendricks, Millers, Junipero, etc.
Plymouth Gin!!! My new absolute fave...hendricks is good, but can get overwhelming at times...plymouth is so smooth great straight-up or mixed!!!
Doesn't anyone drink Beefeaters anymore? While I'm curious to try Millers now (love Pimms cups and the cucumber flavor sounds like a good summer drink), Beefeaters has been hubby and my standard. We went through a Plymouth phase, Boodles, Hendricks, Bombay, but keep coming back to the big B. I find it beautifully aromatic (I'm guessing the wide mouth of the glass is designed for this...?)and flavorful.
I would love to find a place that serves a good mixed martini,but after having "bartenders" dump olive water (yuk!) into the mix, we moved to our martinis super dry (as in straight gin). We also like the beautiful clarity of pure iced gin in a clean simple glass. There's something elegant about this very minimalist drink. In fact, the only time we used "other-than-clear" glasses was with a vintage cocktail set with hand painted roosters (very Nick and Nora). Now that they're all broken, we're back to being purists.
I third the Beefeater recommendation - it's got a lovely citrus quality I really like. It also stands up to a little more vermouth than my Hendricks martini, which is easily overpowered by the Noilly Prat.
I used to keep my gin in the freezer, too, until I realized that dilution was an essential element of a well-made cocktail. One day I noticed that I never kept my brandy or rye or bourbon in the freezer, but my sidecars and sazeracs and manhattans were still delicious.
Lastly, I cannot recommend highly enough the practice of adding a dash or two of orange bitters to the shaker. It elevates the martini to the sublime.
And has anyone else tried the new double-walled insulated shakers from Oxo and others? Brilliant! No more frozen hands.
I shake most of my 'up' cocktails vigorously over cubes of ice, and strain them into chilled cocktail glasses. I'm a firm believer that a little dilution and a lot of chilling is important to such drinks. It's why I don't keep liquor in the freezer, except for vodka and sipping bitters like Fernet Branca that I intend to serve neat. A good strainer and not-too-finely cracked ice obviates the "clouding with slush" issue. I save the shaved ice for mists and Mai Tais.
Shaking is also important for drinks with added egg white -- like the Ramos Fizz and other fizzes -- to get the desired foamy effect.
But I stir drinks made with certain bitters, generally the kind of which a few dashes only are used as cocktail flavorings: Angostura, Peychaud's, orange bitters, peach bitters. Shaking such drinks tends to make them unattractively cloudy.
Tried martini stirred with Plymouth gin and Vya vermouth at 5:1 ratio with Myers lemon peel and Picholine olives. Excellent!!
My understanding is that Ian Fleming always had his martini stirred. Must be a joke that he played on his readers.
Nothing like a Martini discussion or a spirit post about "what bourbon should I try next" to release the hounds out of the woodwork! I'll list my 2 cents after reading all this and hope it is informative.
1. A martini must have gin. 2. A martini must have dry vermouth, and I have found Dolins dry to be the best. 3. The vermouth used must be either new or refrigerated less then a month. 3. Orange or lemon bitters makes it better. 5. Please stir this drink vigorously until it is damn cold, 45-59 seconds. 6. Plymouth is by historical reference the gin used in the first Martini. 7. That said, for other gins, Brokers is a good value gin for a London dry style and if you have not tried Deaths Door Gin from Wis, go find it now! It is citrus and floral and if you like Plymouth, you will like this one too.
My go-to gin of choice is Plymouth,....smooth, not biting, and was Winston Churchills, and the British navy's regular gin
As I near the stage where the olives surface I am having no quibbles with a shaken 4:1 original Bombay and original dry Noilly Prat...essence of the impending holidays to me.

Report: Bruins extend Dennis Seidenberg
|10.03.13 at 5:44 pm ET
According to TSN's Darren Dreger, the Bruins have signed defenseman Dennis Seidenberg to a four-year, $16 million extension. The deal reportedly includes a no-trade clause.
Seidenberg, 32, is in the final season of a four-year, $13 million contract signed following the 2009-10 season. Seidenberg had four goals and 13 assists in 46 games last season.

Along with the players that were expected to be cut, the Cowboys officially parted ways with Marc Colombo today. This is not really news — it was already reported once — but there was some question about whether the 'Boys would officially release the tackle or if they would restructure him and keep him for depth. His return for a cheaper contract is not out of the question. With the subtraction of Davis and Colombo, the Cowboys will have to add some depth to the line. A cheaper Colombo would be a great fit.

Updated: March 5, 2014 11:01PM
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Newly signed guard Jimmer Fredette isn't thinking about his long-term prospects these days.
Not after two-plus enigmatic seasons in Sacramento, which came to an end last week when the Kings bought out his contract and the Bulls signed the former BYU standout after he cleared waivers.
"I'm not too worried about [beyond this season] right now,'' Fredette said. "I just want to get acclimated to the team and with the system and help the team any way I can on a nightly basis. I just want to figure out what we're doing here and get ready to go.''
Coach Tom Thibodeau said Fredette's daily cram sessions were going well, but that doesn't mean he'll have much of an impact.
It's not about what Fredette can or can't do as much as available minutes. There just aren't that many at point guard.
D.J. Augustin has been averaging just under 30 since Feb. 1, and starting point guard Kirk Hinrich is slotted for 25 to 30 minutes a game just to be cautious with his injury problems.
With just over a month left in the regular season, Thibodeau seems to have his rotation set in stone.
"What you don't know and can't predict is foul trouble and injury,'' Thibodeau said Wednesday when asked about Fredette's playing time.
"When you come in at this stage of the season, where are you in terms of your schedule? Who do you have playing? Where is your rotation? How is your team playing? What are your needs? You're looking at all those things. And then the challenge is how quickly we can get him up to speed where he can function with the group.
"We're not going to be afraid to throw him out there. If we need him and someone is in foul trouble or there's an injury, he'll be in there. We have a lot of confidence in him.''
The good thing about Fredette is he can play at shooting guard because he's such a good outside shooter. So the only player he could steal a few minutes from would be rookie Tony Snell.
But, as Thibodeau acknowledged, Fredette is working against the clock to get acclimated offensively and defensively.
"Now, you've established a rotation and because of where you are in the season, you're not practicing as much, so there's limited practice time,'' Thibodeau said.
"You're trying to do it on off days, [hotel] ballrooms, things of that nature. It takes a little bit longer, but he's coming along. He'll be fine.''

Honda's "Leap List" Works When Scaled Down
by Larry Dobrow on Jan 31, 1:37 PM
My current fave TV commercials hawk Honda's newly redesigned and rejiggered CR-V. In one, a scruffy young turk responds to his wife/partner/whatever's suggestion about having a baby by hallucinating about spelunking and robot pugilism; in the other, a bright-eyed ladygal responds to her boyfriend/cabana boy/whatever's marriage proposal by rhapsodizing about drum lessons and roadtrips with her estro-genius clique.

Coast Guard Skips Recruitment Spiel, Adds Informational Videos To YouTube Account

As a northeasterner with a pronounced political bent, I only avail myself of certain specific advantages that come with my citizenship: the freedom to burn flags and religious texts on the front lawn of grade-school campuses, the right to use magazine-fed semiautomatic rifles to protect my breakfast nook from Redcoat infestation, the liberty to eat cheeseburgers while ogling co-eds in star-spangled bikinis, etc. But like any U.S. citizen with a brain and a conscience, I support the heck out of the troops, who put their lives on their line for me and everyone I love - yes, even you, Slow ...

Axe Unleashes Anarchy
by Larry Dobrow on Jan 24, 1:32 PM
When I last checked in on Axe, it was reveling in the silly, self-aware provocation of its marketing and making the eyes of lab animals bleed with the fetid pong of its musks. Turns out that I might've been premature with my big-picture video assessment dealie, as four weeks later the brand unveiled a monster online push for its first-ever fragrance for women. And it's friggin' amazing... the campaign, that is. Based on previous Axe products, I have to assume the fragrance itself incorporates hints of patchouli, diaper and wet ferret.

Prudential's "Day One Stories" Arrive Days Too Late
by Larry Dobrow on Jan 19, 3:19 PM
I can't wait to retire. I'll spend my mornings napping, afternoons in a state of siesta and nights profoundly, supremely inert. If I happen to rouse, it'll be due to a fire alarm or the arrival of a pizza. Alas, my retirement is far enough away that it seems more an impossible dream of magnificent sloth than something that should blip on the planning radar. Thus Prudential's "Day One Stories" compilation of retirement videos and resources isn't for me, nor for anyone who, in his later years, similarly dreads the prospect of tucking in his shirt or - disdainful snicker- ...

Less Snobbery, More Appeal on Jaguar's YouTube Channel
by Larry Dobrow on Jan 17, 1:19 PM
Jaguar executives don't have a sense of humor about the pronunciation of the company name. I learned this while interviewing a marketing higher-up a few years back, when the guy went out of his way to draw out the middle third syllable (JAG-oooo-er). Annoyed for no good reason, I retaliated by double-exaggerating the pronunciation myself (ZHAAAAG-eeeee-WAHHRRR) and throwing in creative takes on Target (tahr-ZHAAAY) and Facebook (fa-CH-boog) for good measure. I didn't get too many usable quotes for my story.

Note to CES Attendees: Booth Visits Trump Video Pitches
by Larry Dobrow on Jan 12, 1:48 PM
As a reporter for an electronics trade pub, I spent several January weeks swimming in the sea of khaki trousers and diluted testosterone that is the Consumer Electronics Show. Truly, my memories could fill a memory book: Clock radios that could accurately be characterized as "feature-laden"! Bible-sized MP3 players that held as many as 300 songs! Each year I entered the Las Vegas Convention Center a blank slate; I departed rich in business cards and knowledge about cellphone accessories with a four-month shelf life. Once, I came into possession of ducats to Monster Cable's exclusive Boz Scaggs concert. He encored ...

Con Ed's "The Power of Green" Stars Employees in Simplistic, but Effective, Videos
by Larry Dobrow on Jan 10, 2:16 PM
The Missus and I prepared for Hurricane Irene and the Great Freak October Snowstorm of '11 the way any media-spooked survivalists would: By stocking the pantry with batteries and willing our earthly possessions to West Coast kin. As it turns out, we dodged the trees and raging hellwater that crushed atriums and moldified basements in neighboring areas, partly due to luck and partly because we closed our windows.

Cathay Pacific Campaign Humanizes Its Employees. Will More Passengers Fly?
by Larry Dobrow on Jan 5, 1:00 PM
I have no idea what kind of hook airlines can hang their branding and marketing efforts upon nowadays. No longer can they play up convenience, comfort, glamour, value, promptness, service, efficiency, flexibility, orderliness, odor or abundance of mass-produced beef stroganoff. What's left? "Fly Braniff, where a majority of the seats are firmly affixed to the cabin floor"? There seems to be a single strategy left: the dreaded people-person approach. You know, like "to some minimal extent, our employees are decent human beings who have a passing interest in treating our passengers like petting-zoo denizens, if not social equals." For its ...

"The Sea is Calling." Should You Answer?
by Larry Dobrow on Jan 3, 2:25 PM
To commemorate a milestone anniversary a few years back, my family went on a cruise. We entered it anticipating community-grade productions of Guys and Dolls, conga lines that snake from stern to bow, and pudding on demand. We exited it, or at least I did, frantically swimming away from a U.N. dingy just off the coast of Labadee, Haiti, all the while screaming, "I'm not going back on that ship! You can't make me go back! I am a sovereign entity!" A spirited discussion about international law and nautical territoriality ensued. It's a long story, one better told under threat ...

"I came in 5 min before closing on a Sunday with a leg laceration. They were about to close but I was seen by Dr Joerg Skomrock who spent a lot of time with my treatment and explaining how to follow up.

Chicago Cubs manager Rick Renteria has released his first lineup of the regular season.
- Emilio Bonifacio, CF
- Junior Lake, LF
- Starlin Castro, SS
- Anthony Rizzo, 1B
- Mike Olt, 3B
- Welington Castillo, C
- Nate Schierholtz, RF
- Darwin Barney, 2B
- Jeff Samardzija, SP
Lineup Notes
- With Francisco Liriano starting for the Pirates, this may be the lineup that Renteria trots out against left handed pitchers. Though, outfielder Justin Ruggiano likely will be a part of the Cubs lineup against left handed pitchers. The reason why Ruggiano is not in today's lineup is because the outfielder is still recovering from an ankle injury.
- Bonifacio gets the first crack at being the Cubs leadoff hitter. Bonifacio certainly possesses the speed to be in the leadoff spot, the only concern is if he can get on base enough to be in that position. If Bonifacio is able to get on base regularly, that should create favorable scoring opportunities for the Cubs offense.
- After moving throughout the lineup last season, Castro opens the 2014 season hitting third in the order. Castro has refined his approach and plans to follow the same blueprint he had in his first two seasons with the Cubs.
- The power combination of Rizzo and Olt in the middle of the Cubs order is something to watch. The Cubs were lacking run producers last season and this year's lineup will be dependent on Rizzo and Olt to stay productive.

NBC's broadcast of the 2014 Stanley Cup Finals' Game 1 between the Los Angeles Kings New York Rangers managed to draw 4.5 million total viewers and a 1.7 in the demo rating (the fast national numbers are subject to change and could end up increasing).
The 2014 Stanley Cup Finals' Game 1 match-up in which the Kings' won in single overtime, was down 30 percent from last years's triple overtime opening match-up between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Boston Bruins (which was the most watched Game 1 in 16 years).
Compared to 2012's low rated Game 1 opener between the Kings and the New Jersey Devils (2.7 mil/ 1.0) the 2014 Game 1 match-up were noticeably higher. Another high note for NBC, the 2014 Stanley Cup Finals' Game 1 broadcast managed to narrowly edge out Fox's So You Think You Can Dance to claim the night's best demo rating.
Here is hout the night's other new outings faired:
ABC: A new episode of sophomore drama Motive averaged 5.1 million total viewers and pull a 1.0 in the demo. Wednesday's new outing saw a gain of 24 percent in total viewers and a tenth in the demo reaching season highs.
Fox: So You Think You Can Dance brought in 5 million total viewers and earned a 1.5 in the demo. However the Wednesday's new outing was down a tenth from last week's season opener.
The CW: The 100's two part season final began this week with part one averaging 1.6 million total viewers and a 0.6 in the demo.

In a series plagued by errors from NC State, Virginia seemed to have Sunday's match-up with the Wolfpack well in hand. The team didn't go so quietly. Even after putting up three errors in the contest, Virginia had a back and forth match-up with the Pack only this time ending up on the losing end.
Even after regaining the lead after the game was tied during a one-hour and forty eight minute rain delay, The Cavs bullpen stumbled a bit as Kevin Arico gave up a two run homerun to Pratt Maynard to make the score 7-6. In the ninth, with two out and a man on first, The dependable Jarrett Parker struck out to end the game as NC State handed the Cavaliers their ninth loss of the season.
The Hoos' are back in action on Tuesday, as they welcome Liberty to Davenport Field in the final contest before exam break.

And if people want to hear what I have to say, fantastic. But if they don't, I can live with it. Because these questions will lead me back to working with love. And right now, I can't help believing that love, in its many forms and expressions, is all that really matters.

Lovely post, Liz, and very grounding, reminding us what really matters.
It is so easy to get caught up in the numbers, as you say, and forget that having love around us is what allows us to write with honesty and passion, and every moment spent with those we care about is more important than all the other things.

- Stroppy Author said...
Thank you, Liz, for such an honest and moving post. I can empathise with this, for slightly different reasons. It's important to try to keep hold of the lesson, so fresh now, when life gets back to normal (or when normal adjusts to fit life). Things seen in vivid colour around a time of crisis easily slip into the shadows later.

"...second-guessing what I might need to do to please all of these people mustn't ever be the starting point of writing a book...writing, for me, is not about asking my readers what they want to read, or asking my publisher what they think will sell...It's about asking myself what do I care about, what do I have to say, what do I want to share with the world?"
Wow, Liz, it's as if you've taken my thoughts right out of my head! I couldn't agree more, I've always felt this way, and when people (mainly my mother!) frequently suggest that my next book be about something trending, something that will appeal to the broadest common denominator so that I might earn 'decent money', I always say I'd far rather go back to f/t teaching than do that, because 'writing commercially' for me is about as appealing as sweeping the streets! I couldn't possibly write a book that I wasn't head-over-heels in love with.

Thank you so much for these absolutely lovely comments. I wasn't sure whether or not to publish this post as it was so personal, but from the comments I've had here and elsewhere, it has confirmed for me that it was the right thing to do.
I'm so glad to have struck a chord with other people, and it was a really useful process for me to spend time thinking about all of this. No idea exactly what thoughts it will lead to right now, but I know that whatever it leads to will be something that feels meaningful and right.
Love and best wishes, Liz x

Liz I'm sorry you've had to go through this. From someone who has sat hours and hours and hours on the other side of an operating theatre door, I know where you're coming from in that rarified world that is just a hair's breath... as you put it... away from another life.
Be well and may your writing be hugely in tune with that place where you've been.Hope the days are slipping by fast now and you don't have to count anymore!

Ask Me: Is Early June Too Early For Hiking Mount Whitney and in Yosemite?
My wife and I, mid-30s, are planning a getaway week (from our kids 3 and 5) for the first week of June. We've booked cheap round-trip flights from Cleveland (900' above sea level) to Las Vegas. I scored permits to overnight on Mount Whitney June 8-9. Our itinerary includes Tuolumne Meadows in Yosemite, hike to Cathedral Lakes (or beyond), backpack over Clouds Rest, camp near junction with John Muir Trail. Half Dome early a.m., descend Mist Trail to Yosemite Valley. Free Day in Yosemite (North Rim dayhike?). Summit Whitney. Continue reading →
5 Classic (Age-Appropriate) National Park Adventures for Families
By Michael Lanza
What national park adventure should we take with our kids? That's a question I get frequently from parents. It's a tough one to answer, given all the great choices. But my advice always focuses on the ages of kids, because that's how I've always thought about picking the right trips for my kids. I ask myself: What's the most fun, safe adventure we can take them on at their ages?
I've compiled below my top five recommendations for absolute, must-do national park trips for families (with links to my story about each for more info and photos), arranged in order from the easiest, for younger kids, to the most challenging, for older, more-experienced kids. Continue reading →

10 Favorite Images From 2013 Adventures
By Michael Lanza
After plowing through several thousand photos taken over the course of about 15 trips last year, I selected the following 10 that represent, for me, either the essence of each adventure or a moment when light, landscape, and composition came together just right. At this coldest and darkest time of year, kick back for a few minutes and daydream over these possibilities. You'll find links in a few of the descriptions below to existing stories about these places at The Big Outside, and I'll eventually post stories with many more photos from all of them.

It's been months since I've had a close friend of any sort.
Day to day, going through things, never getting to talk or pray or laugh with anyone else… it used to make me sad, lonely. Now it's just become another reason to draw close to Jesus all the more.
I'm going to be so thankful when God brings friendship back into my life.
Until then, and still then, He will always be my Best Friend.

India formally hands over Bodhi Tree sapling to South Korea
India has formally handed over to South Korea a sapling of the sacred Bodhi Tree from Bodh Gaya, fulfilling an offer Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh made to South Korean President Park Geun-hye, as a special gesture of India's friendship and goodwill, when she visited India in January.
Anil Wadhwa, secretary (east) in India's external affairs ministry, and Vishnu Prakash, India's ambassador to South Korea, formally handed over the sapling to South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se and Forest Minister Shin Won-sop in a solemn ceremony here Wednesday, according to a statement issued by the Indian embassy.
Both the ministers received the sapling on behalf of President Park.
Earlier this month, it was carried by representatives of India's external affairs ministry and the forest service of South Korea from India to the Far East nation, a quarter of whose population of 50 million are Buddhists.
The sapling will be temporarily housed at the Korea National Arboretum and, in due course, shifted to its permanent abode at a prominent Buddhist temple in this country to enable Buddhists to pay their respects, something that is being seen as yet another "powerful symbol" of India-South Korea friendship and close people-to-people ties.

This panel is addressing the question of how to build actual collaborations between different types of feminist media and organizations. How do we partner with feminist organizations and media as opposed to fighting or competing for readers?
Jessica is talking about how feminist blogs can be a model for collaboration since we all work together, link to each other, guest blog for each other etc. Despite a healthy competition there is still a sense of community.
Other panelists include Andi Zeisler co-founder and editorial/creative director at Bitch, Denisse Andrade from Manhatten Neighborhood Network and co-founder of the Grassroots Media Conference and Nancy Goldstein, director of Communication and Development for National Advocates for Pregnant Woman.
"We should fight this fight on all fronts."
Even feminist media is caught up on the same stories. Why do we only hear certain stories, certain links etc? If all your research is done online there is the potential for missing local organizations that may not have strong web presences. Who has the entitlement to speak? How do we reach out to people that don't have authority to speak?
The exciting project of building online communities through blogging and social networking technologies is slowly but surely being realized. The hope is that these connections will translate to real world connections between media and non-profit and community organizations.
Do you think that is happening?
Oh and granted we are all doing really amazing work but how the hell are we supposed to make any money???
And Vanessa and I are intently paying attention
