So we were invited to Tante Hermi's 90th birthday party and I joked, Oh this is gonna be LIT but the joke was on me because it was.
At least relatively lit. Lit-er than I expected.
Plenty lit for me.
It was held in a Serb restaurant in Vienna, for one thing, so before the evening was too far along even the vegetarians were eating meat, the red wine was very heavy and good and eventually there was a lot of schnapps. Tante Hermi apparently invited only charming, fun relatives and when the band (guitar, bass, accordion, violin) showed up she was one of the first to start dancing and one of the last to stop.
I was a designated driver so I stayed rather sober.
And I couldn't understand much because tinnitus etc.
But I still enjoyed myself and watching Tante Hermi get down *really* gave me a more positive view of getting old.

Some days Omi is just on the floor
Some days it is a crow wanting your lunch, and some days it is a Slovak home care lady wanting you to help get Omi onto the toilet.
Some days the rain stops and it clears up and you take a walk through golden leaves, buy lotto tickets and salty fruit-nut mix (with rhubarb pieces), take pictures of the sky and the roads are quiet, abandoned, and the sidewalks empty except for a crazy man screaming and another crazy man slinking back and forth up the street and, later, a small lady you cross the street to avoid because you try not to scare women if possible.
Some days the small lady crosses the street too, though, back over to meet you, and walks up to you and asks for help and you realize she had been on the street looking for help but the street was empty but for you.
And you say, sure, what do you need?
I need you to help me get Omi back up. I dropped Omi. There's nobody else in the house and no one else on the street.
She just slipped through my hands and I (here she gestures to herself, a gesture that emphasizes her lack of size) am small. Too small to pick her back up.
Ok, you say. Sure. You follow her into the house, one of the mansions that line the street. Briefly you think, there could be robbers.
No, vampires.
If you were a vampire and got hungry during the daytime, you'd ask your minion to go invite someone into the house.
You imagine David Bowie and Catherine Deneuve inside the house.
She ushers you up the stairs and into an apartment and into the living room and you wonder, how does one lift an old woman in a hospital gown with no pants on without hurting her or her dignity or your back?
You take one side and the helper takes the other side and you try to do what she does and you get Omi onto the toilet, which is a chair with a cut-out part for a bedpan.
You aren't sure how much of what is going on Omi understands, to what proportions she is confused or mortified or flustered or resigned or what.
The helper thanks you and you step around the diaper and wish them a nice day.
The streets are still empty, still no crows, all the way back to the office, not a one, nor a dog.

2fail, so far this year, although in my defense i have been waiting for warmer weather. will get it done this summer.
3fail, as last weekend's houseguests can testify.
4fail. although i have been noting ideas.
5started to do this, but it was rejected as too difficult to play. it was minimalistic, with long stretches of repetition, and would have been too hard for the kids to keep track. instead, they composed a piece themselves, which is even cooler.
6am starting to do this. will be easier, i suppose, when i have an amp.
7working on this. many friends gave money towards this at my party, and I'm going shopping with a musician friend this saturday. some friends actually gave me a small, old guitar amp at the party as a joke. i tried it out this morning and despite its size, it cranks. but don't tell alpha i already have an amp, or she wouldn't appreciate me getting one suitably large.
8working on it. although i have the impression that the composition would be the easy part of this project, and getting dame helen to go along with it would be more difficult, with her busy schedule.
9to do this one must write one first, which i was working on, although i recently took a break to write some short stories.
10working on this. strictly speaking, i have actually published stories, but that was many years ago.
11i'm submitting stories every week. so, not fail.
13working on it. this is a pain in the ass, though. any list i write is bound to be arbitrary. maybe i'll reserve the right to change it as necessary.
14wow, you're even reading the footnotes! respect!
15i have painted abstract paintings i and/or others like, but it's more a therapeutic, mystical process at the moment than an artistic one. looking over another 50 list i just found, i see another version: "paint enough pictures to have an exhibition, whether or not i actually ever have an exhibition." this would be a nice goal, actually, and i even know a great cellar to have an exhibition in, although the light is not so great, being underground and stuff.
16acrophobia and the lack of big trees made this impossible as a kid. although i have overcome acrophobia, a lack of big trees continues to vex me.
17won a flying lesson at the age of 11 in a contest of some kind and have liked the idea of flying since then. no time, though.
18fail. i decided it would be too dangerous.
19fail, or, if you accept a substitution of rudimentary japanese for chinese, success.
20fail, unless you accept a substitution of walking up mt. fuji.
21success, if you belong to the "a man needs zero crossbows" camp.
22fail, although this is a non-negotiable must. a H&K repeating shotgun would also be swell, but i accept certain persons' antipathy to firearms. also, it's not like i really have any need for such a thing. it's more an object to be admired theoretically, or from afar, like helen mirren.
23working on it
24working on it
25fail. switched to single malt for a while, because there was less competition. that is, fewer people could wax rhapsodic about whiskey than about wine. simply saying, hrm, iodine aftertaste, must be an islay and you were an expert, as long as you avoided actual experts.
26fail, for the most part. we were on good terms when he died, we were always on good terms, he was patient with me, but i have this feeling that i let him down without meaning to.
27this currently looks like success. no doubt the purely academic nature of goal #8 helps.
28fail. this was a boyhood goal, fueled less by aesthetic interests than you know.
29success. still perfecting them though.
30fail, but have not given up hope.
31fail, so far.
32success. 1986, i think. highly recommend it, if you don't mind the idea of sitting in a train for 2 weeks. once would be enough for me, though.
34fail. have tried this, and learned that it's harder than it looks. finding a place to practice is also harder than one would imagine.
36have been lucky in this regard lately. exercise helps. still sufficiently melancholy, but have not experienced extended uncontrollable depression for a long time. brief depression while exhausted or stressed, yes, but it has passed rapidly, lately.
37success. i made a speech at my birthday party. i am not going to start selling encyclopedias door-to-door any time soon, but i stood in front of 50 people, okay, friends but still, the idea would have filled me with terror recently, and told them what i thought of them. i told myself this was necessary given the occasion, so no one had to twist my arm. it really made me happy. i got choked up and had to stop before i'd said everything i planned, but it sufficed; and it was probably good that i didn't sing "kilkelly, ireland" as i had briefly considered. knowing when to quit is half the battle. i subscribe to the opinion that it is a good thing to tell people what you think of them sometimes, at least if it is positive, and i appreciated having the chance to do this. looking at a roomful of people who had accepted my invitation and come, i was surprised to realize i had so many kind and thoughtful friends. i have been perceiving the world differently in the days since then, and not only because i'm fucking exhausted from 1. the partying and 2. cleaning (although the guests were extremely clean and well-behaved).
38really should make an appt. it's been a couple years.
39working on it. here too, i've surprised myself by sticking to it, although i would suck less if i practiced more.
40fail, electronophobia. although a book i recently bought about hacking electric objects to make simple instruments is motivating me to pick up a soldering iron. i showed it to a friend who knows the vegetable orchestra, and she told me they have the same book and have been experimenting with it. that's how cool i am!
41success. about 60 people came. my only regret was that i didn't have enough time to spend more time hanging out with each person.
42fail, mostly. except in restaurants and with taxis. man, i get my money's worth out of that joke, don't i? but it's true. however, i generally don't feel the need to be invisible as much as i once did, which i think is a good thing.
43working on it.
44working on it, although i'm trying to train it to look good with a minimum of labor on my part. did put in a nice little vegetable garden this summer. if it works i'll make a larger one next year.
45maybe some day.
46way exceeded this one, despite my rotten character. people are basically beautiful, and intelligent, and funny and talented, and they all like me. or are really good at faking it. i used to suspect the latter, but i'm getting over that.
47outgrew this one, i think
48have managed to avoid this so far. there are some serious pros and cons to this.
49This would be the Chaos Coefficient, if you ask me. As well as the idea that efficiency is good for individuals but bad for societies, in certain ways. C=(f+p)f is the formula for the chaos coefficient, where "f" is the number of family members living under your roof, and "p" is the number of pets you have. It is an approximate measure of the average chaos level you can expect in your life.
50i was super illuminated in the night of 8 may, because i had a sore back and took some muscle relaxant, expecting to go to bed early, but friends dropped in and one thing led to another and i felt awful just giving them one beer, but i was out, so i got out the jameson, and as they say on the warning label, do not mix with muscle relaxants. i was so relaxed that when my wife came out to the terrace to say hi, she thought i was my friend and gave me a hug and said welcome back to austria, nice to see you again. of course, the friend shares birthdays with me so we're practically twins. and when i stood up, i fell right back down again, although i adjusted quickly. so illumination has its pros and cons, too.

In times of moderate economic insecurity and real-terms wage stagnation, it's harder than ever to keep on top of your finances. Often, wage checks raise bank balances just enough to lift us out of credit or accommodate for our monthly expenditure, ruling out things like holidays, fashion investments, or the patient building of a wad of savings which you can enjoy later in life. Thankfully, all is not lost. Instead of relying on wages and the cost of living to shift in your favor, there are plenty of productive steps, like those listed below, that you can take to become a budget whizz, saving instead of frittering the bucks.
Identify Excess
This is one of the more unfashionable tips, so we'll get it out of the way first. Conduct a thorough audit of your finances, checking on what it is that's insidiously nibbling away at your earnings. A great and painless way to do this is to search for and join a mobile bank, that'll do the topping up for you. Usually, people are a little oblivious to what exactly is gobbling up their fortunes, and finding out can come as a bit of a shock, but it sets you in good stead for the following step. You should make a spreadsheet of your outgoings and incomings to identify where you need to watch your spending. Utilizing a website such as excelsemipro.com can help you learn how to spreadsheet like a pro.
Cut it Out
With horror, you've discovered that your daily double espresso is cutting serious and avoidable inroads into your personal finances, or that your frolicking in the stores on the weekend is costing you dearly. Whatever it is, it's time for a lifestyle change: stop overspending and start living within your means. You'll likely find that whatever it was that was so costly is something you'll hardly miss.
Think Frugally
Extending from your initial sweeping improvements, this is a way of life that's as rewarding as it is money-saving. There's a host of frugal living tips available online that'll inspire you to take action in every area of your life that involves outbound expenditure. Whether it's buying cheaper food, canceling subscriptions, reducing transport costs, or compromising on pricey products you thought you'd never do without, living frugally will do as much for your budget as cutting out your worst spending habits.
Set Targets
The best way to take full control of your finances is to understand the difference between necessary expenditure and unnecessary expenditure. It's simple: food – necessary; Netflix – unnecessary. And so on. You'll have largely achieved this if you followed the above three steps, which means you'll know how much your base-level expenditure is – that is, how much money is necessary for your survival. From there, add a token amount for treats, and establish an expenditure target that you aim to meet each week and each month. Staying on top of the stats and noting just how much you've saved is the perfect motivation to complete your pro-level budgeting.
If your wallet is a graveyard of receipts come the end of the month, you may do well to follow the tips laid out in the article. You may now think that abandoning certain luxuries is a step you'll be unwilling to take, but it's one you should at least try – you may enjoy the feeling of saving money far more than you ever believed.

The power for a Christlike character comes from Christ. But the responsibility for developing and displaying that character is ours"1
I'm glad to know that me becoming Christlike is driven by His power, the same power that made lame men walk, blind men see and healed lepers. Because reality is, in order for me to become Christlike I need daily healing, from the trouble I get myself into. So thanks be to God its by His power that I am able to be changed.
Though, just how a non-engaged light bulb is useless, so is that Christ power in me if I dont do something with it. It is our responsibility as Christians to develop our character to become like that of Christ. Developing this takes putting ourselves in intentional growth situations and seasons as well as using the right tools once there.
One tool that helps us and is necessary for growth is proper devotion to God. This is far deeper then 10 or 15 minutes of reading in the morning. If this time is actually to produce any sort of fruit in our Christlike character, it needs to have depth. We need to go beyond reading words on a page to experiencing a time of communion with God. Don't let that word communion throw you, thinking thats only something that involves bread and juice at church. Instead take it as an image, that daily you can enter into His courts, and enjoy a meal with, and from Him. A famous quote of Jesus was "I am the Bread of Life, whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst."2 Take part in that! When we begin to understand the depth of having God provide our daily nourishment, thats when true character development starts. It takes sacrifice though. Jesus, despite having crowds of thousands following Him around, He daily, intentionally made private time to hear from God, this time was precious, and sacrificial… "Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where He prayed."3 If you're like myself, mornings are very precious, so to get up before the sun, and spend time communing with God would be extremely sacrificial. Reality is, it would be beyond worth it.
Jesus chose to spend that time in prayer. If our prayer is to be effective in communicating with God, and causing growth in our lives, the type of prayer that needs to be properly tapped into is deep, honest and reverent communication with The Almighty. This is the second tool to intentionally developing our character. In an amazing message on prayer one said this "If you want to humble a man, ask him about his private prayer life."4 Now only you and I know the depth, or shallowness of our conversations with The Everlasting, take time to think about it, honestly. Is your prayer life intentionally helping you to develop in godliness, draw near to God, rely on and hear from God?
Keep in mind that although this intentional developing of our character is difficult, requires sacrifice and for us to be honestly evaluating our private lives, we can overcome the difficulty through His infinite power in and through us. The apostle Paul puts it this way in his own life… "I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus."5 That upward call…the same one you and I have, receive salvation, then develop and display it in a Christlike character.
Press on friend.

Dead Trigger for Android
Editors' Review
With great graphics and exciting gameplay, this game seems to be one of the most popular action games on the Google Play store. Dead Trigger combines a first-person shooter with social media and strategy gaming. It offers a fully immersive environment with high levels of action.
The first thing we noticed when installing Dead Trigger is the size of the application. The size will vary depending on the device, but since we tested it on a Samsung Galaxy Nexus our file was over 120MB. With a file of that magnitude the device should be plugged into the wall and connected to a good Wi-Fi signal. Any interruptions in the download will cause it to abort and start over. When the download finished, it took a couple of minutes to install the app. The game begins with a short cinematic video describing the backstory. The general idea of the game is to eliminate as many zombies as possible through a first-person shooting platform. The main menu features a map in which users may select missions or purchase weapons. Virtual currency is earned through completed missions and is awarded according to the skill of the shooter. The graphics in this game are amazing. They are smooth and flow as seamlessly as if the game were being played on a console. The characters featured in the game are very realistic, too, and so is the gory violence. Overall, the gameplay is fantastic. It is action-packed and even nerve-racking at times.
While Dead Trigger is an amazing game, parents may not want their younger children playing it. It has a lot of interactive, animated violence and realistic gore. The game will push your mobile device to its limits, too. It uses a lot of CPU power and consumes quite a bit of memory. Nevertheless, if you are craving a challenging game, this one is a great pick.

I am building a small headless server on a cherrytrail box with debian 9 . The goal is no monitor, no mouse, no keyboard, no X server on it (but GUI acces with XRDP). Everything is set up and running, except one blocking issue :
If I have a keyboard plugged in one of the 2 usb ports at boot time, everything is booting ok.
If I try to boot with no keyboard at all, the boot will not complete and I get messages looping on the console :
usb1-port4 : cannot enable : maybe the usb cable is bad
usb1-port4 : enable to enumerate usb devides
I've spent hours reading the forums, but found no solution.
Any idea?

I love breakfast foods. Toast, biscuits, cereal, eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit, milk, juice. Heck I even like breakfast potatoes in various forms and potatoes aren't usually at the top of my list. Breakfast for dinner always feels like a comfort meal to me. Something warm, cozy and simple.
The problem is that more often than not I skip breakfast on a work day. We all know how important breakfast is to getting into a healthy habit and having a productive day. I just can't seem to get my act together to leave on time (or a close approximation of on time) AND eat a good breakfast. The fastest thing to eat is a bowl of cereal, but in the middle of the day that just doesn't seem to cut it. In Michael Pollan's new book I read the old adage "Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper." That's all well and good, but I have the least amount of time for the kingly feast.
What do you guys do about breakfast?

Ted Williams, Charlotte Agenda, January 25, 2017
I'd love to have been in the Childress Klein development conference when somebody said, "You know what? We should add 394 apartments on top of the Mint Museum…"
Say hello to luxury high-rise apartments at the Museum Tower.
Spring 2017, residents will begin moving into this 42-floor tower.
Lawyers, consultants and energy executives working on the upper floor of the Duke Energy Center will look out their office window in jealously at the heated infinity pool – complete with cabanas, grills, oversized fireplace, lounge seating and bar.
View from what will be a rooftop lounge with fireplace.
The apartment complex has all the high-end amenities that you could dream of – including a massive lounge with high ceilings and a stunning view of the Panthers stadium.
Museum Tower lounge with game room, massive fireplaces, free WiFi and more.
View from one side of the Museum Tower lounge.
All 394 apartments are either 1-bedroom or 2-bedroom units. The building is currently 5% pre-leased and 5 of the 10 penthouses have been leased.
There are 13 different apartment floor plans for the one and two bedroom apartments inside the Museum Tower.
One bedroom apartments range from $1,805/month to $3,130/month.
Two bedroom apartments $3,070/month – $6,750/month.
Here's a look at a few of the plans and their respective price ranges.
Smallest 1 bedroom apartment option. 856 total square feet. Rental price range: $1,805/mo – $2,140/mo.
Largest 1 bedroom apartment option. 1,006 total square feet. Rental price range: $2,285/mo – $3,130/mo.
Smallest 2 bedroom apartment option. 1,409 total square feet. Rental price range: $3,070/mo – $3,950/mo.
2 bedroom penthouse. 2,111 total square feet. Rental price range: $6,680/mo – $6,750/mo.
The Museum Tower's amenities, views and finishes are outstanding, but as more towers hit the market (Skyhouse, Ascent, etc) along with existing staples like the Vue – will supply outpace demand? Not yet.

Have you ever thought about what your dream camera would look like?
Mine would look something like this.
I want a mini Bronica SQ. Smaller and lighter, using a new type of film for 5x5 frames, 16 exposures per roll.
The viewfinder would stay the same, a little smaller due to the overall size reduction. You'd be able to switch to a fully electronic viewfinder (very much like the Fuji X100 series) with a live preview of the exposure and the film you have loaded in the back. This preview can simulate pushing and pulling as well.
If you run out of batteries, it should still work using the optical viewfinder.
I'd like to have just one lens, a zoom lens with a range of 20-300mm. f/4 would be more than enough.
When taking a long exposure, it should be able to show you the image as it's being "built". Of course, simulating the effect film will have on it. This way, you could stop it once it looks good and not before or after.
This would be the perfect camera for a hybrid shooter.
What would yours look like?

Football is our national tribute to over-developed commercials and experimental snack foods. There's only one day a year where buffalo chicken dip is appropriate dinner-fare and building a fortress out of snack foods is considered a worthy creative endeavor. Your imagination and caloric threshold are the limit!
To honor this festive element of the game, we have assembled a bar of six radically different salsas: Arbol, Guacatillo, Quemada, Texas Green, Verde, and Habanero.
This fiery salsa takes advantage of the plentiful and hot (15,000-30,000 Scoville units) chile de árbol. Its robust flavor and medium-thin texture makes it perfect for chips, tacos, and as a topping on rice.
Chile de Arbol
45 minutes (30 minutes active) - Heat Level: 4/5
- 5-15 chiles de arbol (depending on desired heat level)
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
- 1lb roma tomatoes.
- 3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped.
- salt and pepper to taste
- Preheat the broiler.
- Once hot, put tomatoes in a baking pan, insert into oven, and cook until charred (10 minutes or so).
- Meanwhile, toast the arbols in a dry skillet on medium heat until they begin to regain form (5 minutes). Once toasted, put away for later.
- Remove tomatoes from oven and into a large bowl, let cool slightly, slip off skins, and core to remove the hard middle of the fruit.
- In a saucepan or deep skillet, set heat to medium, coat the pan with avocado oil, and sauté the onion and garlic until translucent. Once translucent, add the tomatoes, arbols, and 1 1/2 cups of water. Simmer for 10-12 minutes.
- Take off the burner, let cool, blend, serve!
If you're not from the Southwest, you may not be familiar with guacatillo. This salsa is a relative of guacamole, but uses the tangy flavor of the tomatillo to turn the chunky, thick texture of guacamole into a slightly thinner, creamier, and more flavorful alternative. If guacamole is Paul McCartney's Superbowl halftime show, guacatillo is Prince's (RIP): less popular, more experimental, but just as––if not more––satisfying.
5 minutes - Heat Level: 1/5
- 3-4 medium-sized, medium-ripe avocados (you don't want to use too many or the salsa will become too creamy)
- 6 tomatillos, husked, and cleaned
- 1 jalapeño, stemmed
- 1/2 red onion
- 1 bunch cilantro leaves
- 1 garlic clove
- salt and pepper to taste
- Blend it!
Our house salsa here at Siete, Quemada has a rich texture and light kick that makes it perfect for snacking. The charring on the base fruits and vegetables gives it a nice depth that eludes many salsas.
20 minutes (15 minutes active) - Heat Level - 2/5
- 4 large tomatoes, halved
- 1 medium onion, quartered
- 6 garlic cloves, peeled
- 2-4 jalapeños
- 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 lime, juiced
- Preheat skillet to medium-high heat.
- Place the tomatoes (skin side down), onions, jalapeños, garlic on skillet, and dry roast for 10 minutes (or until charred).
- Transfer the tomatoes, onions, jalapeños, and garlic to a blender or food processor.
- Add salt, cumin, and lime, and blend to desired consistency.
- For a richer color, return salsa to skillet, and simmer for 2-3 minutes.
- Serve salsa warm, room temperature, or chilled.
As you can probably guess by the name, Texas Green is one of the states most iconic salsas. It's served in taquerias across the state and is most famous for it's addictive, almost neutral heat. The featured artist here is the jalapeño. In fact, the salsa is literally just jalapeños, garlic, and avocado oil. There are hundreds of different styles, but we prefer the charred version, as it adds just a hint of smoke to the base flavors.
Texas Green
30 minutes (20 minutes active) - Heat Level: 4/5
- 10-15 Jalapeños, stemmed
- 5 cloves of garlic
- 1/4 cup avocado oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- Pre-heat skillet to medium-high heat.
- Place the Jalapeños and garlic on the skillet. Remove the garlic to a cutting board when it has softened. Turn the Jalapeños occasionally until all sides are well charred.
- Put jalapeños on the cutting board with the garlic and cover with plastic wrap for 5-10 minutes, making the skins easier to peel off.
- Halve the jalapeños, seed, devein, and peel (you can keep some of the seeds if you'd like it hotter).
- Put garlic and jalapeños into blender or food processor. Pulse. Then slowly introduce avocado oil until the texture of the sauce is thick, but not oily. The color should be a pale green-yellow.
It wouldn't be a salsa bar without a standout salsa verde. This is the traditional: a tomatillo and serrano base that is more flavorful than it is death-defying.
30 minutes (15 minutes active) - Heat Level: 3/5
- 8 medium-sized tomatillos, husks and stems removed
- 2 serrano chiles, stemmed, but with seeds
- 1/2 white onion
- 2 cloves of garlic
- Salt to taste
- Add the tomatillos, serrano chiles, onion, and garlic to a sauce pan, cover with water and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes or until the tomatillos have turned pale green.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool a bit. Transfer to blender, removing water in excess of 2 cups. Blend (should yield 4-6 cups of salsa). If more water is necessary for thinner texture, add.
BEWARE: FIERY. To make this recipe, get into your preferred Habanero hazmat suit. We recommend nitrile food-service grade gloves. You should also wear glasses if your eyes are sensitive to peppers or if you do not want to look like you had an emotional afternoon. To modulate the heat between pleasantly tropical and "wow, that was a mistake", discard or keep the seeds and veins. I'd recommend keeping the seeds and veins in one out of the three peppers.
20 minutes - Heat Level: 5/5
- 3 habaneros, cut in half
- 2 large carrots, chopped
- 2 tomatoes, quartered
- 3 cloves of garlic, halved
- 1/4 of a yellow onion
- 1 lime
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- salt to taste
- Heat the avocado oil over medium heat. Add carrots and cook until they begin to soften (5-10 minutes), then add the habaneros, onion, garlic, and sauté, while stirring occasionally.
- Once the vegetables are all soft, but not browned, take the skillet off the heat, let cool slightly, and transfer the contents of the skillet to a blender or food processor.
- Add lime juice and apple cider vinegar. Pulse. Add water to achieve desired consistency. Salsa should coat a chip, but not be chunky.

The Czech Republic isn't home to a terribly trendy beer culture: as I mentioned to Andrea Turco at Cronache di Birra, the very strong lager traditions here make the Czech palate quite traditional, even inflexible.
For years, the most innovative Czech brewery has been Pivovar Primátor, currently the property of the city of Náchod, which earned its title by putting out three very good strong lagers and one of the first widely distributed Hefeweizens, followed by a decent take on a pale ale. Though the newer (and much smaller) Pivovar Kocour is trying even more new things, Primátor still puts out the most interesting beers in Prague supermarkets. And as of last month, the Náchod city beer maker is offering a further innovation: the country's first real stout.
To skip to the chase: it's excellent. And when you consider that East Bohemia is fairly removed from the traditional sources of stout in London and Dublin, you'd have to call it outstanding.
The beer departs from Czech tradition in several ways: while virtually all Czech beers are produced using a decoction mash — a complicated process requiring the separation and heating of part of the beer's initial "grain soup" to higher temperatures — Primátor stout is made using a simpler infusion mash, roughly like the way you brew tea.
The ingredients include four kinds of barley malt — Pilsner, Bavarian and caramel malt with just a touch of smoked malt — as well as roasted unmalted barley, unmalted oats and unspecified British hops. British hops are weird enough in the homeland of Saaz, but when you combine it with a grain bill that includes unmalted barley, oats and Bamberg-style smoked malt in a not-so-Czech infusion mash and you've got something fairly weird indeed. We're through the looking glass, people.
After trying it several times recently, both on tap and in bottles, I can say I've found it quite impressive, with one caveat, which I'll discuss later.
The beer pours a very dark amber, almost black, with a creamy tan head, and is quite similar in appearance to bottled Guinness Extra Stout, to which I compared it on my last tasting. The aroma smells strongly of cocoa dust and carob. In the mouth there is a rush of toasty malt, a touch of oat porridge, some bitter chocolate, more cocoa and carob, with a light note of good arabica coffee in the finish, followed by a lingering, slight smokiness with a touch of astringency for balance.
The coffee note is subtle but clear. In fact, on tap at U Radnice recently the beer was listed as "Stout – kávové" or "Stout – Coffee [beer]," and the waitress wouldn't hear of it not actually including being made with coffee. "It is coffee beer," she said, and at least in terms of how it tastes, she's right.
The Guinness, by comparison, is far less complex — there's no cocoa, no carob notes, and the coffee flavor is bitter and sharp like an overbrewed robusta. Sampling the last flat drops at the bottom of the bottle, it came off saccharine like a cheap cola.
Overall, Primátor stout is an excellent beer on its own terms, and a very agreeable stout in global terms. In comparison to quality stouts from elsewhere, however, I thought I detected one slight difference: the Primátor stout's lack of stoutness. That is to say that the flavors of Primátor stout are all there, but the mouthfeel — the texture, viscosity, heft and fullness of the beer — is thinner than that of many stouts I've enjoyed. That's an observation, not a criticism, and I wouldn't ask for it to change.
However, it's worth noting that it is also the mouthfeel of Primátor's English Pale Ale which seems most unlike the beers it is trying to emulate. Perhaps the difference arrives through the use of undermodified Czech malts in the mash, as opposed to well-modified English malts in the originals. Or perhaps it is due to the difference in Náchod's water, which is likely to be lower in sulfates and carbonates than the water used in breweries that traditionally produce ales.
In any case, Primátor stout is an absolutely excellent new arrival. From outside the Czech Republic, it might sound crazy for us to be thrilled by such a conventional style as stout, especially when craft brewers in America, the UK, Denmark, Italy and elsewhere are creating new beer styles, experimenting with souring and over-hopping and innovations like oak-aging, new trends that don't exist at all in the homeland of Pilsner brewing.
But perhaps they will soon.

Monday night, Josh cleaned out our apartment and met me at home. We put all the fridge things away and got dinner ready. After dinner, I did the dishes, laundry, and baked cookies at the same time (loving this dishwasher and in-house washer and dryer)! Josh worked on unpacking and made some great progress on the office part of the living room. PLUS he set up our Wifi. It's exciting to see the house becoming ours. Yes, the kitchen is smaller, but I love it. I LOVE the openness of the downstairs. I love that I could throw dishes in the dishwasher and save Josh the time of hand-washing every single thing.
Tuesday, I felt like a rock star at work. I'm slowly taking on more responsibility for creating the billing that goes to our customers, and the customers are getting to know me. And the guys in the office have really started coming to me to brainstorm, or when they have questions. When we got home, Josh and I cleared out the living room, swept, shifted boxes, laid down the rug, vacuumed, and set out the coffee table. Progress! We have a number of rooms at least mostly set up (bathrooms, our bedroom, living room) and 2 in at least partially working order (dining room and kitchen) and one disaster room (extra bedroom upstairs, aka the dump). We went to Growth Group in the evening, and I got my exhausted self in bed as soon as I could.
Today, the work day started off with our weekly meeting. I'm in the middle of some billing confusion, and answering a lot of questions in the office. Honestly, I'm having fun. We're implementing a lot of organizational processes in the office, and I'm loving it. Unpacking, though it is a challenge to figure out where to put things, is definitely more enjoyable to me than packing. Unpacking is exciting and… packing is sad. Packing means leaving, unpacking means a new beginning.
This morning I realized I only have 4 days left of work (from this point) until Christmas, because I'm leaving early on Tuesday. I am SO excited to spend Christmas with Josh's family for the first time. I have heard so many stories, and it sounds so different from my family's traditions.
Tonight Josh is having a game night with the guys, and I'm doing a cookie swap with the girls.
Dear Josh,
Yes, I'm stressed that our dining room is full of boxes and that you're having people over tonight… but I'm so glad you want to. I'm thankful for our friends, and the fact that we don't have to have a perfect house in order to have them over. Also, I'm so excited to celebrate our anniversary this weekend. (We should talk about that…. do we even have plans?)
I love you! I can't wait to see you at 5:35.
Love, Mrs. Cornelissen

Two AEK teams were involved in Watford Friendly league cup finals last Sunday.
AEK U18s Blacks won a hard fought Challenge Cup Final 3-2 vs Hadleywood & Wingate who pushed them all the way. Goalscorers were George Demosthenous scored 2 superb finishes and Xavier Cumberbatch scored a collectors item swooping header too! This completes the double for the team having won the top U18s division (with all U17 players) winning 13 out of 14 matches and scoring 55 golas and only conceding 22. The AFA cup final defeat meant the treble was not to be completed but overall this set of players should be proud not only of their free scoring and fluid football played, but also for the way they have conducted themselves both on and off the pitch, making their coaches Dave Cumberbatch & Marino Charalambous proud. The are a credit to themselves and to the club.
AEK U15s Blacks also reached the final of the Spring Cup, defeated by league winners Alexandra Park Youth U15s. The first half ended 0-0 and was very evenly matched. APYFC were stronger and more clinical in the 2nd half going on to win the game 2-0. The boys should be proud of their performances this season, finishing runners up to APYFC and getting to a final a great achievement in itself. Coaches Mario Michael & Andy Lancaster have been so impressed with the boys commitment to training/matches, their willingness to learn and also their fantastic attitude.

During our second full week of readings in Lent for Everyone: Mark, our Lenten small group met again to share what we were learning on the journey. One of our members, Biddy, came bearing her edible contribution from the story. An apple, cranberry crumble with seeds. The seeds were pulled from the parable Jesus told. The seeds of the crumble won't grow in us but are the words we are reading? Are they taking root in our lives as intended or are we just enjoying the momentary good feeling they bring? Here it is, the recipe with seeds with comments from Biddy:
Cornucopia Hot Bramley Apple Crumble
115g pumpkin seeds
115g sunflower seeds
115g jumbo oats (or regular oats)
85g unrefined brown sugar (I think this is too much so have used between 60-65g…see how you feel)
70g vegan margarine (or regular margarine if not required to be vegan)
Pinch of ground cinnamon or ground ginger
900g cooking apples (Bramley apples) (I usually use more as they tend to shrink down in size. Test it out for yourself)
125g unrefined brown sugar (Again I don't use this much as it makes it rather sweet. I use between 100-105g. See how you how get on)
Preheat oven 180*C. Peel, core and chop the cooking apples. Place them in an ovenproof dish and scatter them with 125g of soft brown sugar. Cover with foil or, if the dish has a lid, cover with a lid.
Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, until soft and juicy
While the apples are baking, place all the topping ingredients in a bowl and rub together until the margarine is evenly distributed.
When the apples come out of the oven, sprinkle them with the crumble topping and return to the oven for 20 minutes or until golden brown and crunchy. Serve warm with cream, soycream, yoghurt or ice-cream.
Alternatively you can bake the apples well in advance and refrigerate it. About half an hour before you are ready to serve your crumble, assemble it and place it in the oven, allowing 35 minutes' cooking time, as the apples will have started from cold.
Crumble Variations:
Spring: Rhubarb-trim and chop 900g rhubarb. Bake covered in the oven with 125g brown sugar and a thumb-sized knob of peeled fresh ginger, chopped in two or three. Remove the ginger before sprinkling on the crumble topping.
Summer: Apple and Raspberry- Peel and core 500g of cooking apples. Bake covered with 75g brown sugar. Add 400g fresh raspberries to the baked apple just before the crumble topping goes on. Other summer fruits to try – cherries or blackcurrants.
Autumn: Plum- Peel, halve and stone 900g Irish plums. Cover with foil or a lid and bake in the oven until soft and juicy.
Apple and Blackberry- Peel and core 500g of cooking apples. Bake covered with 75g brown sugar. Add 400g blackberries to the baked apple just before the crumble topping goes on.
Apple and Elderberry- as above, replacing blackberries with elderberries
Winter: Apple and Cranberry- to introduce a seasonal touch to your apple crumble, add a handful of fresh, frozen or dried cranberries to the raw apples and bake them together. (This is the one I made for us)

I am a native Coloradan, son of a Kaiser Permanente physician. I have always hovered around Colorado, drawn to the outdoor activities that are abundant in our beautiful state. My wife and I are both Kaiser Permanente physicians, deeply believing in the integrated model of health care. We live in south Denver with our two children and Siberian Husky. We visit the mountains as often as possible, partaking in the hiking, mountain biking, skiing, and whatever else we can do with our children and active dog.
As a radiation oncologist, my passion is guiding people through the challenging and sometimes scary journey through cancer care. I strongly believe that with the right support, cutting edge treatment, and guidance, the experience can actually be quite rewarding for patients. I work primarily at Saint Joseph Hospital where I have the privilege of not only caring for Kaiser Permanente patients, but also patients with other insurance and non-insured patients. This gives me the opportunity to care for our entire community--a great honor for me.
I spend as much time as possible outdoors with my family--whether it is biking, hiking, skiing, or just walking in the creek behind our house looking for crawdads and frogs. I believe strongly in taking care of the mind, body, and heart.

STEM Skills Are Vital For Personal Growth and Economic Development
The U.S. has developed as a global leader, in large part, through the genius and hard work of its scientists, engineers, and innovators.
Many of those innovators came to the U.S. to pursue their dreams under the freedoms and opportunities provided by the U.S.'s emphasis on meritocracy.
Alexander Kartveli ventured out of his native Georgia fleeing the Bolsheviks. Leaving behind other family members, Kartveli, along with his mother, escaped turmoil and oppression to pursue a boyhood dream to design aircraft in the nascent field of aviation – an industry that resembled the freewheeling days of the early Internet. In the U.S., he became one of the most important aviation engineers in U.S. history.
In a world that's becoming increasingly complex, where success is driven not only by what you know, but by what you can do with what you know, it's more important than ever for our youth to be equipped with the knowledge and skills to solve tough problems, gather and evaluate evidence, and make sense of information. These are the types of skills that students learn by studying science, technology, engineering, and math—subjects collectively known as STEM.
All young people should be prepared to think deeply and to think well so that they have the chance to become the innovators, educators, researchers, and leaders who can solve the most pressing challenges facing our nation and our world, both today and tomorrow. But, right now, not enough of the world's youth have access to quality STEM learning opportunities and too few students see these disciplines as springboards for their careers.
In fact, future success in fostering a competitive economy and providing economic growth may depend on national policies that today emphasize STEM.
How do U.S. 15-year-olds compare with students from other countries in math and science?
The Kartveli Association is committed to STEM education and raising awareness of the life and accomplishments of Alexander Kartveli.

I'm interested in trying this. How much vinegar is recommended and at what frequency? Thanks.
Yes how much vinegar per day is recommended? Thank you
I have been instructed to consume Apple Cider Vinegar with "mother" on the label. It has along with other dietary guidlines have helped me with my gut flora from toxicity from antibiotics that led me to get Candida (been treating naturaly for 2.5yrs)
I was serliusoy at DefCon 5 until I saw this post.
Drinking DILUTED ACV, rather than 'neat', makes a huge difference. The same applies for using it topically for e.g., vulvodynia / candida infection. I am Histamine Intolerant and react badly to ACV taken 'neat (as in severe asthmatic wheezing symptoms. When I take it diluted, however, it has the opposite effect and significantly calms mast cell activity, reducing histamine release and the inflammation, pain, and 'burning sensation' that this otherwise causes. This would at least in part explain why – used judiciously – ACV can be so effective in reducing symptoms of Colitis, which so often involves excess mast cell degranulation.
I keep a glass jar of dilute ACV (roughly 1 part ACV to 6 parts water) in the bathroom for topical use as needed, and another in the kitchen for taking small sips throughout the day as I remember, for digestive health. I notice the difference on the days I forget to keep those two jars topped up.
Sometimes "less" is more. : )

In the field in front of the mess hall at B-2 there were several pieces of training equipment. There were ropes for hand-over-hand climbing, and a football tackling dummy. An 8-foot wooden platform was erected over a sand pit. This piece of equipment was used to practice parachute jumping and landing. Several large open saw-dust filled pits were used to practice close combat exercises such as ju-jitsu, wrestling, and knife fighting. One of the executive officers designed a piece of equipment that was called the "Trainazium." It was constructed from a dozen large oak trees approximately 15 to 18 inches in diameter. The trees were harvested from within the Catoctin Recreational Demonstration Area much to the dismay of Park Manager Mike Williams. Underneath the 18-foot tall structure, safety nets were installed to catch fallen trainees. The recruits learned to maneuver and walk in narrow spaces, allowing for improved strength and dexterity. The 20 ft. x 20 ft. rectangular structure was located in front of the mess hall in B-2.
The House of Horrors
A pistol range was initially constructed at B-2 for firing .45 Colt automatic and other pistols. The range had pop-up targets of enemy soldiers. Students were instructed how to fire a pistol using a special quick firing method from the hip called "Point and Shoot."
Another unique Office of Strategic Services (OSS) training structure at B-2 was the "Pistol House." It was also known as the "Mystery House," "House of Horrors," and the "Haunted House." At a cost of $6,000 it was the most expensive structure built by the OSS. The house was located where the stable is today in Camp Greentop. It was designed by British Special Operations to teach close shooting practice under realistic conditions. Trainees were sent into the house with an instructor and were armed with a .45 automatic pistol. The house simulated a building that was occupied by Nazis and the interior was kept completely dark. The floors in the house were unstable and included frequent drops. There was a hidden phonograph that played realistic sounds including men speaking German. As they moved through the house they encountered Papier-Mâché Nazis with pistols.
Get Tough
One instructor of special note on loan from the British government was William "Fearless Dan" Fairbairn. The former British official instructed agents on hand-to-hand combat techniques. His form of "gutter fighting," later known as the "Fairbairn Technique," was a combination of ju-jitsu and street fighting. He was an expert in disarming the enemy and "silent" killing techniques. OSS agents favored his specially designed double-edged dagger. In his 50s, Fairbairn is seen in several OSS instructional films training recruits at B-2.

Being in the right location is important for so many things: building a startup company, forming professional and personal connections, and helping your peace of mind.
1) Startup hubs
There's a big difference between non-hub areas and significant hubs.
You'll find a number of elements in any top-tier startup hub, but just because an area has all of these doesn't guarantee it's going to be a startup hub. They're necessary, but not sufficient. You need:
- At least one world-class university
- An established base of both large and small technology companies providing economic growth, work opportunities, etc.
- The option to live in a major urban metro, if you want to. There are certain demographics (engineers, recent college grads) that may prefer to live in a dense urban core.
- Pervasive access to mass transit, especially light- or heavy-rail.
- Availability of mentors who get what you're doing and will help -- people who have worked in these environments (technology companies) and want to contribute. They have to be active in the business world, not retired.
The startup companies that find success outside hubs are successful despite their location.
If you're building the kind of company that's going to need outside funding, it's not a secret that very early-stage investors prefer to invest close to home.
If you form that kind of business in a location where those investors aren't concentrated, or don't exist, it's going to be a lot harder to raise money and grow the company. Why handicap your startup by building it in a place where there's zero investment activity?
2) Professional and personal connections
Building and running a startup is an insane amount of work, and it's hard on the founder. Everything feels precarious and fragile, like you're walking across a frozen lake, don't know how thick the ice is, and can't see to the other side.
Unless you happen to get super lucky, and fast, you'll be working on your startup all the time. It can be extremely isolating. And if you're in a location where you only know people who work for big companies, you'll be surrounded by people who are constantly taking vacations. The founder doesn't get vacations like that.
And it's especially annoying when people who work for big companies are always saying they're so busy, and yet take a vacation every couple of weeks:
If you're in a startup hub, it's much easier to find other founders who can commiserate with you, and that's huge. It's so important to just have someone acknowledge, let alone understand, what you're doing and what you're going through.
But a hub is also extremely helpful for finding mentors, early-stage funding—and other crucial resources like co-working spaces, identifiable sources of seed funding (angel networks or seed-focused VCs), and accelerator programs. Even if you don't plan on applying to an accelerator, the presence of it cultivates other positive effects in the ecosystem.
But location isn't just important for startup founders. If you're a screenwriter—especially a young one in your 20s—it would be a hell of a lot better for you to be in L.A., for similar reasons.
In the book Powers of Two, Joshua Wolf Shenk talks briefly about what sociologist Michael Farrell calls "magnet places" where creative people form partnerships and connections. You'll have more magnet places—schools, events, accelerators, and more—within hubs.
All of those serendipitous meetings that form connections are much more likely to happen in a hub. Shenk writes, "Even in the age of laptops and smartphones, the best work still seems to emerge from person-to-person contact."
3) Peace of mind
Living in a place where there's a kind of support system, and where you can meet people who are doing or have done similar things, is really helpful. Plus, the weather's probably better.
As a startup founder, you want to simplify things as much as you can. For some, that means living in a place where you don't need a car. In addition to mass transit, there are a lot of options for car-sharing and ride-sharing in Seattle and other tech hubs.
Of course, we don't always have the ability to move somewhere to pursue what matters to us. But when you're at a turning point and have a chance to pick your location, or at least choose among a few realistic options, it pays to look for the place that offers you the greatest opportunity to join an ecosystem of others who are reaching towards similar goals.
