Specific country notes have been prepared using data from the database OECD Health Statistics 2015, July 2015 version. The notes are available in PDF format.
Both educational attainment and skills, as measured in the OECD Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC), are high in Sweden. They are not perfect substitutes, but both are to some degree necessary for successfully integrating in the Swedish labour market.
Sweden has failed to improve its school system despite a series of reforms in recent years. A more ambitious, national reform strategy is now urgently needed to improve quality and equity in education, according to a new OECD report.
The Swedish economy has been among the most resilient in Europe, despite the slow global recovery and high uncertainty, but challenges remain if it is to maintain high growth and well-being and extend prosperity to all, according to the latest OECD Economic Survey of Sweden.
English, PDF, 160kb
During the crisis, Sweden's unemployment rate increased by almost 3 percentage points, but part of this increase has now been reabsorbed. By July 2014, unemployment had fallen to 7.7%, well down from a peak of 8.9% in 2010.
English, PDF, 684kb
The ability to measure innovation is essential to an improvement strategy in education. This country note analyses how the practices are changing within classrooms and educational organisations and how teachers develop and use their pedagogical resources.
Sweden has shown a longstanding commitment to the environment, significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions, air pollution and nitrogen leaching. Renewables supply more than a third of its energy needs. Sweden has set itself tough targets for the future, however, and must continue to innovate if it is to meet them, according to a new OECD report.
The average worker in Sweden faced a tax burden on labour income (tax wedge) of 42.9% in 2013 compared with the OECD average of 35.9%. Sweden was ranked 8 of the 34 OECD member countries in this respect.
Biographical note of Sweden's Permanent Representative to the OECD.
This case study describes the approach taken to reduce NOx emissions from combustion plants, the challenges encountered and the social, environmental and economic impacts. It concludes by discussing the wider lessons that are raised for other governments seeking to develop similar policy responses.

text: I used to use my Rollei "Sports Finder" like that before getting a prism. Is that not possible with the non removeable finder? I found it worked very well if you wanted to do eye level shooting or if you want to look straight down at a subject. The view out the sports finder is a little off from what the film sees but I was able to figure out the difference and compensate.

I had been working on my week old used race bike for a couple hours at least and wanted to take it for a test drive. It was dark out of course but I had a flashlight which suited me just fine before. I do have a hi powered light but its on the fritz atm.
Well, I was in top gear and saw and registered a WTF and before I knew it I was over the bars. There was a large dark dark green plastic trash can with wheels right all across my lane.
Anyway, can I get a replacement cap for STI shifters? The one that says Ultegra Flight deck on top. It busted a hole in that and I'd rather not have the internals exposed.
I think most everything else was okay but it twisted my handle bars to the side. I could have sworn that was not possible but I did rotate them back. It is a 1" threadless and I don't know alot about those. I took the headset nuts off and noticed I needed to grease the bearrings but I couldn't get the steerer to budge one bit, was going to try to lower it.
It's got this weird steerer that is a solid piece with a square shaped hole on top that the handle bar holder slides into and is clamped on. It's got notches to adjust the reach of the bars over quite a big distance. Anyone have any info on those? It's not just broken I hope. I was going to switch to normal handlebar holder but thought I would have to cut the top of the tube off or just leave it on. I'll take pics tomorrow sometime if needed, right now I'm going to get to bed and hope I just have bruises and the road rash.

Hi! I'm a newbee with Log4J.. Well.. I'm working
with Sun One Java System Application Server v.8.1,
I have a properties file and the script in java
with an hashtable who loads the values..then I
can see this values loaded in JBuilder but it
doesn't seems to work with my A.S. !!!
I took care of configuration in the application
server with the jar library and properties file
in the right folder in the file system and with
the path (if it is correct I don't have idea,well
it is "/lib/log4j-1.2.14.jar" and
"/lib/log4j.properties") into the A.S. console
in the JVMSettings/PathSettings
I tried into the java code both with an absolute
or a relative path in my class but it doesn't work..
I tried to test it but I can't have information in
my log server about what is wrong even if I try to
debug the application.
Mine is a server-side application (with a .jar
within an .ear and this .jar in issue contains
other three .jar) who is in remote communication
with the stand-alone/client-side of the application.
Is there something (or more) huge or tiny I forgot ?
Thanks in advance for help..

"Canadian miner Alamos Gold Inc (AGI.TO) dropped its offer to
buy peer Aurizon Mines Ltd (ARZ.TO), putting an end to its bidding
war with Hecla Mining Co (
)," Reuters reported.
It reported: "Alamos said it would not extend its offer for
Aurizon shareholders to tender their shares after it failed to
overturn a break-up fee payable to rival bidder Hecla. The company
said it would not take up any Aurizon shares that were tendered to
its offer.
It said: "A spokesperson for Alamos declined to comment on the
percentage of Aurizon's shares that were tendered."
It said: "Alamos, which is Aurizon's largest shareholder with a
16.11% stake, made an unsolicited C$780 million ($759.16 million)
offer in January. Hecla topped Alamos' bid with a friendly C$796
million offer on March 4.
It added: "If Alamos acquired more than a third of Aurizon's
shares, the company would have to pay Hecla C$27.2 million as a
break-up fee."

As you can probably tell, we have a mini-obsession with Mexico City-based Smithe these days.

Here is a look at some new music posters and graphic illustrations the artist has completed recently.

Lewis Black bringing comedy back to Summerfest
In addition to drum fills, guitar solos and the cheers of thousands, jokes and laughter have been a recurring part of the Summerfest soundtrack. Bob Hope was one of Summerfest's first big headliners, with two shows at County Stadium in 1969, and in the decades since then Billy Crystal, Jay Leno, Dave Chappelle, Jon Stewart, Lewis Black and others have been booked to play a Summerfest stage or tent.
After 2007, the funny stuff appeared to be over at Summerfest. But Friday, comedy makes a comeback. Fest favorite Black is bringing along comedians John Bowman and Mike Wilmot as part of a special comedy day at the BMO Harris Pavilion. »Read Full Article(8)
Next Act gives wings, radio style to 'It's a Wonderful Life'
Imagine a Milwaukee without its musicians and dancers, its singers and actors, its highly reputed symphony and its world-class theater. It would look a lot more like Pottersville, that mean-spirited burg of cheap thrills and third-class entertainment that greets George Bailey before his great awakening.
Such were my thoughts Friday night as six veteran Milwaukee-based actors tugged at my heartstrings for the second straight year, in Next Act Theatre's reprise of "It's a Wonderful Life," as transformed by Mary MacDonald Kerr into a 1957 radio play, coming straight to us from the studio of Milwaukee's very own WNAT. »Read Full Article(1)

(Corrects paragragph six to show tax reform proposal was a"disappointment" to the market, not to the analyst)
By Alexandra Alper
MEXICO CITY, Nov 7 (Reuters) - Mexico has room for furtherfiscal reform to improve its tax base because a bill passed byCongress last week still leaves it well behind countries withstronger revenues, credit ratings agency Standard & Poor's saidon Thursday.
Mexico's Congress approved a package of measures last week,including higher taxes for the rich and levies on junk food andstock market gains in a bid to increase the country's paltry taxtake, one of the weakest in the Americas.
Before the tax reform was presented in September, seniorofficials in President Enrique Pena Nieto's InstitutionalRevolutionary Party (PRI) said the aim was to boost revenues byfour percent of gross domestic product.
But the bill that was eventually floated was less ambitious.And the reform approved is only expected to up the take byaround 2.5 percent of GDP by 2018, the finance ministry said.
The government avoided a political hot potato by notimposing a sales tax on food and medicine, a measure seen bymany economists as fundamental to strengthening the tax base.
S&P sovereign credit analyst Lisa Schineller, an expert onLatin America, told Reuters the fact that this was not includedin the reform was a "disappointment" to the market.
While such sources of revenue remained untapped, there was"certainly scope" for further reform, she said.
With the new reform, excluding tax revenue from state oilmonopoly Pemex - which generates about one third of federal taxincome - Mexico's tax take would be only about 13 percent ofGDP, Schineller said.
"That is still a low tax base internationally," she said.
Schineller said she did not expect Mexico to propose furtherreform soon and the Finance Ministry has already played down thepossibility of seeking to widen sales tax during Pena Nieto'sadministration, which still has five years to run.
S&P, which rates Mexico one notch lower than other majorratings agencies at BBB, downgraded Mexico in 2009 after theprevious president failed to widen the country's tax base.
The ratings agency revised up its outlook for Mexico'ssovereign debt in March to positive from stable.
Schineller repeated that any S&P upgrade would depend on theimplementation of the fiscal reform, and a pending bill aimed atboosting oil production.
That bill, proposed by Pena Nieto in August, aims to open upthe state-controlled oil sector by allowing private companies toenter into profit-sharing contracts with Pemex.
Lawmakers in the ruling PRI say the reform could still gofurther than that, opening up the possibility ofproduction-sharing contracts to oil majors.
"To the degree that you leave as many options open in theform of contracts, that is probably more positive," Schinellersaid.
Fitch, which rates Mexico BBB-plus, is also of the view thatthe new reform cannot by itself dramatically improve Mexico'stax take.
"The gap between Mexico's revenue base and that of the BBBcategory is still quite substantial," Fitch senior ratingsanalyst Shelly Shetty told Reuters earlier this week.
"And no one single attempt at tax reform is going tomaterially improve or bridge this gap because the gap is stillquite substantial," Shetty added. (Editing by Dave Graham and David Brunnstrom)

New plaques dedicated in Stuart's Memorial Park during ceremony Monday
STUART — This Memorial Day, the flags and firetrucks filling East Ocean Boulevard in Downtown Stuart for the annual holiday parade didn't mark the end of the morning's festivities.
After the Shriners, classic cars, motorcycles and baton twirlers cleared the street, veterans, spectators and city officials gathered in Memorial Park to honor those who served in America's military during a dedication service that unveiled a dozen new plaques.
Jo Ann Maitland, president of the Gold Star Mothers of the Treasure Coast, Martin County Veterans Services Officer Tony Reese, and Stuart Mayor Eula Clarke spoke at the dedication.
"We're here to commemorate the deeds of our fallen heroes," Maitland said during her address.
The plaques, mounted on pedestals, surround the central walkway of the park and pay homage to wars spanning from the American Revolution to the global war on terror. One also is dedicated to prisoners of war and those missing in action.
"These plaques are here in honor and remembrance of those who have served," Clarke said.
"It's a great addition to Memorial Park," Reese said.
The city of Stuart paid for the pedestals and area families and organizations donated the plaques.

Labor of Love: Hand Crafted Knives
Custom Made Knives by Heartwood Forge
Great food is a result of many moving parts like quality ingredients, talented cooks and the right equipment, all working together to create an unforgettable meal. I've found that people here in Georgia are pretty savvy when it comes to knowing how our food is grown and where it comes from. And thanks to popular cooking shows, they also know how to properly cook and present that food! But I wonder if they've ever given much thought to how their pots, pans and their knives are made? Well I did, so I took a journey to Jefferson to find out.
photo by Will Manning
Nestled in the woods right off Potters House Road is Heartwood Forge, where designer and knife maker Will Manning creates his practical works of art. Hoping to answer my own question, I spent the day making knives with Will. Which admittedly, from the outside looking in, seemed more like Will making the knives while I just watched. What I learned was this: Will is very skilled and passionate in what he does. He uses repurposed metal from places like Monticello to make his knives; salvaged wood from trees like pecan, box elder and maple or white tailed deer antlers to make the handles; and reclaimed brass for balancing the handle with the blade of the knife. I also learned that his goal is to put his knives in the hands that will use them, and for that measure he has a virtual store front where you can browse and buy your knives. If you're thinking you want something more a bit more personal, like a custom made knife, then you're in luck, because as it turns out, Will makes those too!

Pulse 5 to 7 times or until the chocolate chips are pulverized.
Turn on the blender on low speed and carefully pour the very hot coffee through the top of the blender lid, in a steady stream. The coffee will melt the chocolate turning it into a smooth mixture.

Southerners Are Getting Creative With Their Favorite Nut: Pecan
Few dishes showcase Southern tradition more perfectly than a slice of pecan pie, with its dark custard filling and crunchy, nutty topping.
Sweet and buttery, the pecans that figure so prominently in that iconic pie are America's only major indigenous tree nut. They're native to the Deep South, where the long, warm growing season provides an optimal climate. And they're the third-most-popular nut in the U.S. behind peanuts and almonds, according to the Agricultural Marketing Resource Center.
With 10 million pecan trees producing over 200,000 tons of pecans in America today, the nut hardly needs bolstering. But recently, it has become the focus of experiments by Southern farmers, chefs and craft breweries. Inspired in part by the fast-growing farm-to-table movement, which sets a premium on local products, they are giving the pecan new opportunities to shine in the form of cold-pressed oil, gluten-free flour and even beer.
Toasting or roasting brings nut oils to the surface, and pecans are practically overflowing: 75 percent of the nut is pure oil. Compare that with the peanut, which is 50 percent oil, and the almond, which is around 45 percent oil. As with all nuts, roasting not only intensifies the pecan's flavor but also it adds to its richness.
At Oliver Farm, an award-winning producer of artisan oils in Cordele, Ga., Clay Oliver uses an old-fashioned screw press to produce several thousand bottles of delicate pecan oil a year. He sells to Southern chefs, specialty stores around Georgia andonline. "Pecans have that mysterious extra-something and an unforgettable flavor that renders the oil and flour delicious," says Oliver.
Native Georgia chef Steven Satterfield, a James Beard Foundation Award finalist in 2013 and 2014, uses Oliver Farm's oil for everything from frying food to crafting pecan pesto vinaigrette at his Miller Union restaurant in Atlanta. "I love traditional Southern food," he says, "but I want to experiment just enough to keep it fresh and interesting and new."
Oliver Farm's defatted, gluten-free flour has earned such a big following of Southern bakers that it quickly sells out. Dede Wilson's Bakepedia, a baking and dessert recipe website, offers a recipe for pecan flour buttermilk pancakes with an added drizzle of pecan oil. Georgia chef Jennifer Booker, author of Field Peas to Foie Gras: Southern Recipes with a French Accent, uses the pecan oil in traditional southern shrimp and grits, and for sautéeing collard greens.
But perhaps the most surprising new venue for the pecan is a craft beer called Southern Pecan Brown Ale, produced by Lazy Magnolia Brewing Company in Kiln, Miss. Founded by husband-and-wife team Mark and Leslie Henderson, it's the state's first brewery since the Prohibition.
"Our pecan ale is our flagship beer and the first one in the world made with whole roasted pecans," says Leslie Henderson. The beer won a Bronze Medal in the 2006 World Beer Cup and is now available in 17 southern states. "We were initially worried the oils would kill the foam on our beer," says Henderson. "But the pecans ferment just like a grain and provide nuttiness and flavor unmatched in other beers. There's still a lot of hops and malt, but the nutty flavor shines through."
What inspired the beer in the first place? "Comfort foods like pecan pie and pecan pralines give us that old, charming, Deep South romance," Henderson says. "We wanted to hearken back to that hospitality yet create something new. Our beer is complex but really approachable."
Pecan pancakes and beer for breakfast, anyone?

Baby It's Cold Outside! Winter Pumpkin Soup to Warm the Soul!
Winter Pumpkin Soup with Parmesan Croutons & Bacon Chips
Recipe by Chef Jennifer Hill Booker
Serves 4
Any type of winter pumpkin or squash, such as Sugar Pie pumpkin or butternut squash, can be used for this soup. Just remove the seeds, cut it into wedges, drizzle with olive oil, and roast in a 350° F oven. The roasting softens the vegetable and reinforces its natural sweetness. The addition of stock and cream gives the soup a velvety smoothness, and the croutons and bacon chips add a nice crunch.
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 slices of Hickory smoked bacon, cut into 1-inch strips
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1⁄2 medium white onion, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups roasted pumpkin, mashed, or unsweetened pumpkin puree
2 1⁄2 cups chicken stock
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1⁄2 cup heavy cream
2 cups stale bread, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1⁄4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1⁄4 teaspoon red chili flakes
Freshly ground black pepper
In a large stockpot over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add the bacon and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, then add the rosemary and cook an additional 4 to 5 minutes, or until the bacon is golden and crispy and the rosemary leaves are lightly browned.
Drain the bacon and rosemary on a paper towel. Remove the rosemary leaves from the stems and roughly chop the leaves, discarding the stems. Set the rosemary aside. Discard all but 1 tablespoon bacon grease from the stockpot. Set the bacon chips aside while you make the pumpkin soup.
Add the butter, onion, and garlic to the bacon grease in the stockpot and cook over medium-low heat for 15 minutes, or until the onion is translucent. Stir often to loosen any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add the mashed pumpkin and the chicken stock, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to low, and cook 15 to 20 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream just before you serve; do not let the soup boil once the cream has been added.
Preheat the oven to 400° F.
To make the parmesan croutons, toss the bread, olive oil, cheese, chili flakes, and black pepper together in a large bowl. Spread the bread mixture onto a sheet pan and bake 5 to 6 minutes, or until the bread cubes are golden brown.
Serve the soup in warm bowls topped with croutons, bacon chips, and the chopped rosemary.

Forget Viagra! Eat a Beet
Now that I have your attention . . . here are 6 Great Health Benefits of Eating Beets!
1. Beets are nature's Viagra
Seriously. One of the first known uses of beets was by the ancient Romans, who used them medicinally as an aphrodisiac. And that's not just urban legend – science backs it up. Beets contain high amounts of boron, which is directly related to the production of human sex hormones.
2. Beets are high in many vitamins and minerals
Potassium, magnesium, fiber, phosphorus, iron; vitamins A, B & C; beta-carotene, beta-cyanine; folic acid. These are but a few of the many nutrients, vitamins and minerals that can be found in beets and beet greens. Beets are particularly beneficial to women whom are pregnant, as the vitamin B and iron are very beneficial to new growth cells during pregnancy and replenishing iron in the woman's body.
3. Beets cleanse the body
They are a wonderful tonic for the liver, works as a purifier for the blood, and can prevent various forms of cancer. Nuff said, right? Tastes good and prevents cancer? Sign me up!
4. Beets help your mental health
Beets contain betaine, the same substance that is used in certain treatments of depression. It also contains trytophan, which relaxes the mind and creates a sense of well-being, similar to chocolate. Beets can also lower your blood pressure. So if you're already steamed about not eating beets, you can get a two-fer by diving into them right away.
5. Beets are used as a stomach acid tester
How in the world does that work? Glad you asked. If you are eating a lot of beets or beet juice, and your pee turns pink, guess what? You have low stomach acid. Pee still clear? Ratchet it up and get juicing (use the greens too)! Nutritionists use beets and beet juice to test stomach acid levels, so stay ahead of the curve by adding beets to your diet now.
6. Beets are a high source of energy
At the same time they are low in calories and high in sugar (although the sugar is released into your system gradually, as opposed to chocolate). Very few foods found in the natural world are as beneficial as beets in this regard.
Beets are a wonderful addition to any dietary need. With their high volume of nutrients, delicious taste, and multitude of uses, anyone can jump right into beets without missing a beat.

the average risk. An additional 15-20% of colorectal cancers occur in
people at "increased risk," defined as approximately twice average risk. It
is recommended that people at high and increased risk for colorectal cancer
begin screening at a younger age and have screening repeated more
frequently. Factors associated with an increased or high risk of colorectal
cancer can be divided into two categories: personal, and hereditary or

This rich and luscious dessert came about because I needed a special dessert for a St. Patrick's Day tasting menu. I was on a mission to use my favorite beer, Guinness, something I consider to be one of Ireland's gifts to the world.
As the 17th of March drew closer, I looked for inspiration at my favorite Irish pub in Manhattan. As I savored my pint, I saw a Guinness poster that said, "My Goodness, My Guinness!" It was like an angel sang in my ear: "What if you combined a dark chocolate pudding and Guinness, topped it with whipped cream lightly flavored with Guinness, and then put it in a glass to make it look just like a pint of the black?" After a few failed attempts, I got it just right.
Make the effort to find a good dark chocolate (about 70 to 72 percent cacao). The better the chocolate, the creamier the dessert. And, unless you have an Irish pub next door where you can pull it straight from the tap, a 14.9-ounce can of Guinness Draught works best.
Leave a Review
Loved this - it was a big hit for St. Patrick's Day. I did add just a touch of sugar to the whipped cream topping. The pudding is delicious and very rich. The next time I make it... and I will make it again... I will make smaller servings - Did I mention it is very rich?flag if inappropriate
Ok, so wondering if it is actually supposed to be a "pudding" or a thick drink...trying to decide if I just messed up or really came out with the right dessert...mine never set up to a stiff consistently...just thick...help???flag if inappropriate
Made the recipe with a micro brew chocolate stout and did not make the cream topping. The pudding turned out terrific having used the best 72% dark chocolate I could find. For the topping, I used chopped Andes Candies and some chocolate nibs. This will be saved and repeated.flag if inappropriate
So here's the thing...without those particular glasses this is just a delicious pudding dessert. It doesn't translate for St. Patrick's day without those cute glasses! But that being said, the pudding is delicious. I did decide to instead make whipped cream using Bailey's and powdered sugar. That really pumped up the dessert and actually made it taste more like a "car bomb" drink. Very rich and yummy, but darn I wish I had the glasses!flag if inappropriate
This is absolutely amazing! If you are looking for a St. Patrick's Day dessert - look no further. It's easy and one of the best chocolate desserts I have ever had or made! Made it last year for St. Patrick's Day and am making this year again. Didn't love the Guinness in the cream, though. Straight whipped cream is better.flag if inappropriate
I have made this three times now for an annual St. Pat's party, and I always get asked, uh, told, to "make it again." This time, I am making it with Brooklyn Brewery's Black Chocolate Stout and Green and Black's organic 72% baker's chocolate. So far, the pudding is delicious! Will top them tomorrow with the chocolate stout whipped cream. I find this pudding is so rich, that filling a smaller beer tasting flight glass (4-5 oz.) and topping it with the whipped cream is enough. The flight paddle then makes a great serving tray. To enjoy this fully, focus on the fact it has DARK chocolate in it, and live in denial about the rest!flag if inappropriate
I made this for my husband and his friends one night when they were brewing beer. It seemed fitting. This recipe is delicious. Everyone loved the chocolate pudding, even me and I don't like beer at all. The cream on top was not a hit until I added 2 Tbsp powdered sugar to counter the bitterness of the Guinness syrup. I will make this again, but will serve it in smaller portions since it's so rich.flag if inappropriate
My husbands favorite since last St. Patrick's day and coming from a Patrick Finnegan that is saying something. I have made this for him at least 10 times throughout the year!flag if inappropriate
Delish!!! Decadent. Terrible on the thighs, but fab on the tongue. Made it exactly as written. Serves 8 easily (I actually served 9 as my glasses were small). Memorable.flag if inappropriate
Pudding very good. Didn't taste the Guinness. Whipped cream yuk. Too much Guinness.flag if inappropriate

Milky-Chocolaty Alco Dessert drink
I'm not too sure how traditional or typically Panamanian this recipe is, but it is very popular with the expat community in Bocas del Toro on Panama's Caribbean coast.
(this is a very quick and simple recipe)
1 cup (approx) of chopped or ground local cacao
1 bottle Seco (a popular sugar cane alcohol here in Bocas del Toro)
2 tins condensed milk
Soak the cacao in the Seco for about two weeks
Filter the mixture (keep the dried chocolate for baking or to use in smoothies.)
Mix the chocolaty Seco 50/50 with condensed milk
Put the resulting mix in freezer or fridge
Drink direct from the freezer over ice, or to add an extra zing to a black coffee use the bottle from the fridge instead of milk or cream. What a kick-start to your day.
Drink responsibly, although it is hard to do so with this stuff, as it is so tasty!!
Let me know what you think if you do try this.
Video transcription:-
Hi there. My name is Ian and I live in Bocas del Toro on the Caribbean coast of Panama.
I'm going to show you today - I don't know really whether it's a traditional Panamanian desert - but it's an alcohol dessert drink that we make quite a lot here in Bocas del Toro and use quite often as an after-dinner drink.
Now, it's made with cacao, which is the raw material from which chocolate is made and this is a lump of raw cacao that I've bought from one of the locals here - she has a lot of cacao trees on her farm. She made me a big block of cacao, which cost me $20 (US$).
I've taken half of that and taken about a third of that half, so probably a sixth of my $20 block to make this dessert. What I've done with that piece of cacao there is taken a bottle of Seco, which is an alcohol made from sugar cane. It's very common down here in Bocas del Toro.
This one cost me, from the local supermarket, $5.55 for a 750 ml. bottle. It comes in bigger sizes, too. This is a litre - I think it cost me $6.95 or so. I'm actually going to use, this is another 3/4 of a litter bottle. It's a plastic bottle and this one is really good, because it has a wider neck to put the drink back in.
So, a couple of weeks ago I took the bottle of Seco and the chunk of cacao and then simply chopped up the cacao into small pieces and put it in the tub and soaked it in the alcohol. I put the cacao in there, pour the alcohol over it and just left it for 2 weeks.
What we're now going to do is… we've got a real… that smells absolutely delightful… real chocolaty alcohol there. And I've got a piece of material. This is just actually mosquito mesh that I use on the windows here. It pretty works as a great filter for this stuff.
So I have a little bowl, just with some holes in the bottom and we're just going to filter it. The filtering through takes a bit of a time, so we'll leave that draining. This is one half of our mixture that we're going to make. Second ingredient, this is some condensed milk - $2.50 from the same super store.
Now, this is a lot easier to handle if it's warm - if the tin hasn't been in the fridge - because once it gets cold it gets much harder to pour. And the trick is to get this stuff into the bottle without getting it on over sides of the bottle. I'll do a very quick example, I try to drain this completely but part of the fun of making this drink is scraping out the tin afterwards.
So, let's see how our mix is going here. You can squeeze this out and it goes a lot quicker and at the end what you have, it's not quite yet there, but you have a very dry mixture of alcohol chocolate. And you can use this for all sorts of things. You can put it in chocolate-banana milk shakes or smoothies. You can use it for any other sort of drink or use it to make bread or cakes or whatever - there's a lot of uses for that.
What we're looking for is about a 50/50 mix - I need as much of chocolate Seco as I've got of condensed milk. We have about a 50/50 mix and we just want to mix that up, get it nice and mixed up into a nice chocolaty, milky-chocolaty drink.
And that's it. We're pretty muck done. I'll make two bottles of this today. I've got enough chocolate mix and a second tin of milk to make a second bottle of it, so two bottles. And what I'll do is, I'll put one in the freezer and have that for drinking. It's really, really nice when it comes icy-cold out of the freezer. The other bottle I just keep in the fridge and that makes an excellent addition to a cup of a black coffee. If you get your black coffee and just put this in instead of milk it gives you a really good cup of coffee with a bit of an extra kick.
And that's it, it's sort of dessert drink for after dinner or add it to your coffee in the morning to give yourself a bit of a kick-start in the morning. It's a thick mix, pretty much like a very chocolaty Baileys.
I'll just give it a try. Ah, that is marvelous, mmm, very tasty indeed, but it will be a lot better when it's in the fridge or in the freezer for a couple of hours and gets icy-icy cold.
I have no idea what it's called, Milky-Chocolate Alcohol? I don't know, call it what you like but it's absolutely fantastic, and it's something that a lot of the expats down here in Bocas del Toro enjoy very much.
Give it a try, I hope you like it. Thank you.

The first time I saw Salad finger was in 2005 when I was 16-. They scared the living crap out of me. Now at 24, I smile at the creepiness and I can honestly say that I still love these demented movies. Thanks David Firth!
