One of the classic combinations in certain regions of France is Picon Biere, that is a Pilsener or Wheat beer with a splash of Amer Picon poured in.
Unfortunately, we don't get Amer Picon here in these United States.
However, even if Diageo refuses to send us Amer Picon, we do get a lot of other Amaros…
With this series of posts we shall explore the possibilities we do have available.
Well, sometimes you do have Amer Picon available.
So let's say you're scanning the shelves behind the bar for interesting things, as I often do.
Perhaps you see a bottle that looks a little like this:
What do you do?
Trumer Pilsener & Amer Picon
METHOD: Pour beer into the mason jar or glass of your choosing. Pour in 3/4 ounce (or to taste) of Amer Picon.
Well, the polite thing is to observe the bottle with some degree of apparent awe. Someone probably had to carry the damn thing back in their suitcase from Europe, for gosh sakes. Ask your bartender politely, if that might be a bottle of Amer Picon. If he acknowledges your query positively, ask if he wouldn't mind making you a Picon Biere.
Now it is possible that your bartender type will take some offense at this notion, that you might waste his precious Amer Picon in Beer. In which case, perhaps, if it seems the situation is salvageable, ask for a Brooklyn or Creole Cocktail. Whew.
However, if your bartender is as nice as Kevin Diedrich at Jasper's Corner Tap, he might be impressed that you have ordered a Picon Biere and gladly make one for you. Though do note, the label says this is, "Kevin's Bottle," so don't be offended if he doesn't oblige.

Infinite suns, innumerable worlds: a special event held in Rome
30 October 2009
"Infinite Suns exist. Innumerable worlds orbit those Suns, like the seven planets orbit our Sun. These worlds are inhabited by living beings". With these words, in 1584 Giordano Bruno foresaw by centuries one of the most fascinating frontiers of current research in astrophysics, the search for extrasolar planets, and also because of this idea he was accused of heresy. Just in the same place where the great Italian philosopher was burned at the stake, the historic square Campo dei Fiori, the Planetarium of Rome presented a public event called "Infinite Suns, Innumerable Worlds" on 8 October from 8:30pm to midnight.
More than 1000 people crowded Campo dei Fiori to attend. The evening started off with the evocative scene of the fire enveloping the statue of Giordano Bruno and a reconstruction of his theories and his ill fated story by journalist Corrado Augias and music by Fabio Tricomi. Afterwards the focus lifted off from the statue up to the sky in order to detect, even among the lights of Rome, the new Suns.
Throughout the evening the public was involved in an ambitious astronomical observation: the detection of the transit of a distant extrasolar planet, TrES-3b, in front of its Sun's disk. In a symbolic way, this observation gives finally justice to Giordano Bruno, marking the climax of the International Year of Astronomy 2009 in Rome.
The event was realised with the contribution of INAF - National Institute for Astrophysics, the patronage of the Municipality of Rome and the Sovrintendenza ai Beni Culturali of Rome. Special thanks to ACEA spa for switching off the public illumination and to Auriga spa for providing the telescopes for public observing.

Joey McIntyre Gossip
Joey McIntyre gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
When does a move get old?
Went to studio to shoot eTalk this morning but forgot keys and Jacek went to get his precious Bradley Cooper hair cut so am well behind and catching up - sorry! For now, enjoy photos from the NKOTB show in Virginia this weekend. It's almost the one year anniversary of my interview with them. Remember Jen? My producer Jen, who is getting married in September, is an NKOTB fan for life. Full Story
Am all for the New Kids, totally. But have to say, these pictures are a little embarrassing. Or maybe it's just me. Apparently doing the boat thing is where it's at these days. John Mayer, right? This weekend NKOTB launched their cruise in Miami, bringing back 80s cheese for photographers. Full Story
Single on tour
Exactly a month to go before NKOTB kicks off the tour in Toronto and for Donnie Wahlberg at least, the timing is perfect. He's single. Donnie's wife Kim Fey has filed for divorce and sole custody of their 2 children and spousal support too, which is another reason why the tour has been fortuitously scheduled. Full Story

Leave it to Dave Tompkins to give us something surprising like this Grantland piece on Nat Moore, NFL wide receiver and Miami Bass pioneer:
Nat Moore would be best remembered for his heliocentricity rather than for receiving the NFL's first Man of the Year Award for providing "outstanding service" to a North Miami community decimated by riots, racism, and a highway. Kids who wanted to torch the seat of justice could enroll in one of the Dolphin youth football programs — or they could just skate backward to "Ring My Bell" at one of Nat Moore's teen clubs.
What the NFL failed to recognize were Moore's outstanding contributions to the birth of Miami bass, a rap extremity that enhanced player quality of life: spandex, jock jams, the strip club, the Luke party, the maximization of trunk space.1 This was the first hip-hop genre that appeared to be solely dedicated to fusing a subwoofer waveform with the human rear end, as if trying to develop a new biotechnology called Bottom, making these exaggerations of low end indistinguishable from each other.

Where did Christmas Carols and Hymns Come From?
Most of us know by heart at least a few Christmas songs, and have heard many others, both secular and religious. From Thanksgiving (and often even earlier) until Christmas we are inundated with them in stores, on the radio, at Christmas concerts, and once the secular world is putting away their Christmas decorations, Catholics get to continue to hear Christmas hymns and carols at Mass for another couple of weeks. Just listening to one of these any time during the year can conjure up visions of Christmas pageants, nativities, red and green decorations, Christmas trees, and stockings hung by the fireplace. But the holiday has not always been so inextricably linked with these songs.
Hymns written specifically for the feast of Christmas have been around, it seems, almost as long as the feast itself. Many of these early hymns were created for and added to the Divine Office, and weren't widely known. Some of these early hymn-writers included St. Ambrose, Prudentius, and Venantius Fortunatus, Bishop of Poitiers.
Carols, which are more joyful songs associated with dance (the word "carol" comes from either the Old French term for a circle dance, carole, derived from the Latin choraula, or the Greek dance choraulein), seem to have been first introduced in the 12th century by St. Francis of Assisi, who is also credited with creating the first Nativity scene. He wanted to teach people about the birth of Jesus through music, so he added religious lyrics to well-known tunes. The concept of Christmas carols then traveled throughout Europe, including to Germany where many carols were written in the 14th century. Carols today often retain the medieval choral patterns from the tradition of these early carols. As time went on, the popularity of Christmas carols and hymns grew, and from this we have some of the most popular Christmas songs today.
Probably one of the more well-known, mainstream Christmas hymns today is "Silent Night," which was written in 1818 in Austria. As the story goes, on Christmas Eve Father Joseph Mohr, the pastor of St. Nicholas Church in Oberndorf, ran into a problem when the church organ broke. There would not be time to get it repaired before Christmas Mass, and faced with the prospect of Christmas services with no organ music, Mohr took a poem he had written two years before and asked the church organist, Franz Gruber, to compose a melody and guitar accompaniment to go with the poem. Thus "Silent Night" ("Stille Nacht") was born and first sung that night at the church's midnight Mass.
The Latin hymn "O Come All Ye Faithful" (also well-known by its Latin name, "Adeste Fideles"), was composed by John Francis Wade in 1743. The lyrics may have been written as early as the 13th century, but it seems more likely that they were also written by John Francis Wade. The original version, written in Latin, had four verses, but four more were written – three by Etienne Jean Francois Borderies, and a fourth written anonymously.
"God Rest Ye Merry, Gentlemen" comes from England and was written sometime in the 15th century. It was one of the most popular carols for centuries, finally published around 1833. It is found in a wide variety of versions and with different numbers of verses, depending on the version.
The carol "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing" was written by Charles Wesley, brother of John Wesley who was an early leader of Methodism. It was written in 1739, and originally the first line was "Hark! How all the welkin rings, / Glory to the King of kings" (welkin meaning heaven). It was altered many times until the version we know today became the most popular. It was sung with a variety of tunes at first, but eventually the majority settled on a tune by Felix Mendelssohn written in 1840.
Many of these old hymns and carols that we still know today are entrenched into our associations with Christmas – and there are even more that have been lost through the years. There are also a great many that are not nearly as well-known or mainstream, but are beautiful, reverent, and joyful. Some of these can be found in the CD A Sacred Christmas, Noel: Carols and Chants for Christmas, or Christmas Carols and Motets. For many people today the season would probably seem much emptier, or at least somewhat unnatural, without the sounds of these Christmastime hymns and carols at Mass and in their homes.

(CNN) -- In a virtual world, online identity is potentially much more flexible than real identity and some say it is also a truer reflection of self.
What's the relationship between digital representations in role-playing environments and identities in the real world?
The virtual world creates freedoms that don't exist in the real world. The virtual world is like a mirror that reflects not the physical appearance but the inner side of a person.
Matthew Angelo Tabalba IV, Cebu City, Philippines
I totally agree with Nick Yee. Furthermore, I think that it is a disgrace that so much is spent on huge, lavish buildings that don't cater to the needs of everybody regardless of income.
Gabriella Wallén, Sweden
On of the things we definitely want to be free of in virtual worlds is elitists like Stanford scholars telling us what we should be doing with freedom, and imposing notions of "strange". People want to make surfer bodies, live in McMansions, shop and cyber. That's what the masses want. Leave them alone. If that pays the bills of the expensive proposition of virtual world platforms and software, enabling smaller communities of scientists, artists, and goofballs who want to live inside neon Moebius Strip homes on the moon, that's fine. Don't knock it.
Prokofy Neva, New York, USA
There is a lot distance between material technology and intellectual behavior. We can achieve a hold on consciousness only when we leave the material approach and switch to virtual technology.
Tejaswi, Mysore, India
The virtual world will rock us.

The report to the General Assembly shows that pharmacists dispensed nearly 18.3 million prescriptions in Tennessee last year for controlled substances such as OxyContin and hydrocodone. That's a nearly 1.5% increase in painkiller prescriptions from the year before. The previous year showed a 23% increase.
The report by the state Department of Health shows that hydrocodone is the No. 1 used painkiller in Tennessee. An anti-anxiety drug which is marketed under the brand name Xanax, ranked next in number of prescriptions filled for controlled substances.
Tennessee has one of the highest prescription drug abuse rates in the nation.

Campus Living: What Not to Pack When Heading to the Dorms
Before your teen heads off to college, get prepared for the big move-in day with these essential packing and dorm-living tips.
Before your teen stuffs everything into a suitcase, consider these tips from Carl LoConte, hall director at the University of Michigan.
- Skip the white towels (they get dingy); thin towels are better than plush because they dry more quickly on the back of a door. And look for a larger "bath sheet" size to provide full coverage in communal areas.
- Buy laundry detergent pods instead of big liquid containers. They take up less space and are easy to carry.
- Don't try to re-create a high school bedroom. Bring one inspiring trophy, for example—not the entire collection.
- An economy-size shampoo bottle may seem like a money-saver, but it's a heavy hassle to carry every day.
- Get a laundry bag with straps or a hamper on wheels to move dirty clothes.
- One TV per dorm room is enough (thanks to streaming video options), so have your teen talk to her roommate beforehand to decide who will bring it.
- In addition to utilizing the space under the bed for storage, remember to make the most of vertical space, like the gap between the ceiling and the top of an armoire, if there is one.
Crib Notes
Sidestep common packing blunders with these recommendations from Carl LoConte.
- Talk to roommates in advance about who will bring what, or you might end up with doubles or triples of the same item.
- Find out what is in the room, from futons to full-length mirrors. Ask the housing office before hauling over something that may already be there.
- Don't take every single item needed for nine months. The dorm's community center probably loans appliances like vacuums, and students can always borrow from their peers. And skip the full wardrobe; kids can swap seasonal clothes when they go home for breaks.
- Avoid bringing prohibited items, like candles—they'll have to be thrown away or sent back with parents.
Creating Space
Make a dorm feel homey and personal with easy, inexpensive suggestions from Wendy Manwarren Generes, owner of e-design firm Wendy James Designs.
- Rearrange furniture to make the space look bigger. Move a dresser into the closet and place desks back-to-back, perpendicular to the wall.
- Push a bed against the wall lengthwise so that it functions like a daybed. A few decorative pillows can turn it into a sofa when friends come over.
- Get an upholstered ottoman—it doesn't take up much space but is convenient for propping up feet or providing extra seating.
- Discuss decor with roommates beforehand to avoid clashing colors or prints (which can make a space feel chaotic). When in doubt, get a white comforter and dress it up with pillows or a throw.
- Put up self-adhesive temporary wallpaper. You can cover an entire wall—or just use it as an accent strip.

Online Exhibitions(HKTDC Toys & Games , Vol 02,2006)
Dynamic Displays
Worried that you won't have enough time to view all the exciting products or be able to arrange meetings with key suppliers during Hong Kong's most important trade fairs?
Help is at hand, thanks to the Online Exhibitions web-based package specifically developed by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (TDC) to take the hassle out of sourcing before, during and after major trade shows in Hong Kong.
Online Exhibitions allows international buyers to familiarise themselves online with the very latest and best products available from Hong Kong, the Chinese mainland and Taiwan, wherever and whenever they want.
Such convenient access to potentially profitable information not only provides time and cost savings, it also helps build buyer confidence before major Hong Kong trade fairs, TDC head of e-commerce and publications Clare Wong maintains.
"Every year, TDC organises more than 20 international trade fairs - seven of which are the largest in Asia - attracting some 482,000 buyers," she observes.
"However, while they are universally recognised as the leading fairs of their kind by suppliers and buyers alike, their very success has meant that buyers face the impossible task of researching and meeting thousands of potential suppliers in just a few days."
Hong Kong trade shows are therefore the prime focus of the Online Exhibitions concept, which provides:
online product previews two months before trade fairs and the ability to book meetings with suppliers in advance
promotional booths at trade fairs that let you quickly find the location of your targeted supplier
a one-year online product display that gives you plenty of time to source suitable products - even after fairs have ended
complete supplier details such as company background, product shots, trading activity, factory and advertising videos
Exhibits run the entire gamut of major Hong Kong and Chinese mainland industries including:
- household products
- costume jewellery
- watches and clocks
- eyewear
- toys
- bags and footwear
- electronics and electronic components
- garment and fashion accessories
- gifts and premiums
- machinery, hardware and raw materials
The TDC also participates in some 200 trade fairs worldwide to promote the latest products from Hong Kong, and also boasts a global network of some 40 offices, Wong adds.
"The unique blend of this extensive local and international trade fair programme and Online Exhibitions gives buyers unparallelled access to the very latest and best products available worldwide."

It's been eight years since the European Space Agency's Huygens probe landed on Saturn's largest moon, Titan. Now, to celebrate this anniversary, and to make sense of the data sent back to Earth, a new rendering has been put together by the ESA to show the landing in exquisitely precise detail. As you watch the video, remember that this landing still marks the most remote alien surface ever visited by a human probe.
Huygens had been dropped off 21 days prior by NASA's Cassini spacecraft. Once it began its descent, it took the probe 2.5 hours to make it to the surface.

Quote:1961, I'm glad you gave the link to this site in your post as I really needed a laugh when I got in from a shi**y day at work. I watched quite a few of the kata clips and never have I witnessed such a rampant bout of lumbago at any single club I've ever trained at. One guys even wearing a baseball cap whilst performing a kata. How cool is that. My sensei would never let me wear mine. The kata videos are all set to different classical music tracks which I found a little odd as some kind of circus music would have been more appropriate for this bunch of clowns. Very poor quality technique demonstrated in these kata's. I hope those practitioners in the videos are wearing very dark green belts and not black ones...

If you have only the meat of an animal, it will rot after some time. If you have an animal captured live, it will never rot and you can pull a few neat tricks with it. Tree Frog --------- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Minimal Capture: Yes A small creature, usually found in grass, caves and swimming at the surface of lakes and ponds. Only good for recovering a tiny bit of stamina. Reticulated Python ------------------ Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: Low Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: Yes The most common animal in the game. Restores good portion of stamina, and is rather easy to catch. Is known to bite in grass. Often found in grass and caves. Giant Anaconda -------------- Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: Low Stamina Recovery: High Capture: Yes The Reticulated Python's bigger brother. It is harder to find and gives some more stamina than it's counterpart. Other than that, it is almost the same. Indian Gavial ------------- Initial Taste: Outstanding Danger Level: High Stamina Recovery: High Capture: No The best food you can pick up during Virtuous Mission. it is hard to get because the Gavial does quite a bit of damage to Snake. It's attack knocks Snake down. When Snake gets up, you'll have a few second to get away before it repeats it's attack cycle. if you manage to kill one, you will be treated to not one piece of meat, but three! Each piece of meat recovers a large amount of stamina, capable of keeping you satisfied for ages. You cannot capture the Gavial, so don't bother. Your only way is to kill it. You'll find tons near swamps and a few lakes. WARNING: Do not come close to a Gavial in the water. If it gets a hold of you, you are dead. It is kinda fun to see Snake getting shaken around by a Gavial though. Just for fun, throw a grenade at its head when its mouth is open ;) Magpie ------ Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Low Capture: Yes Really annoying to acquire, it is hardly worth the effort. It tastes bad at first, and the stamina recovery is low. If you really want one, you will have to know exactly where it is, so that you can shoot it. If you get too close, it will fly away. They usually appear in twos, in the grass or in trees. Rat --- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Low Capture: Yes The only difference between the Rat and the Magpie is that the Rat is much easier to capture and is found in crawlspaces. Good if you want to eat something small quickly. Japanese Flying Squirrel (Thanks to Terror and Semetaire and Scott Holmes) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Low Capture: Yes Okay, I've finally eaten the bugger. It's hard to find at night because it blends so well. It tastes bad and gives low stamina. Definitely not worth the effort. Scott Holmes has given me some excellent info regarding it's location. "1) The squirrel was in the Dremuchij South area during the Snake Eater Mission (the area where you begin the Virtuous Mission). 2) After the cutscene with The Boss and her horse, travel South past the Dremuchij Swampland and into the Dremuchij South area. 3) When you first come out of the scene transition, there is a huge tree in front of you that is climbable (where you got your backpack during the Virtuous Mission). 4) I found the squirrel after about one minute in the area when it was walking over to the next closest tree located Southeast of that climbable tree. So, towards the bottom right hand side of the tv screen in 3rd person view." Green Snake (Thanks to Terror and Blue Hige) -------------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Fairly Tasty Danger Level: Low Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: Yes Another Snake, which I'm sure is like the others. I have no idea on the tase or stamina recovery, so a bit of help please? It can be found on trees during most of Operation Snake Eater. King Cobra ---------- Initial Taste: Outstanding Danger Level: Medium Stamina Recovery: High Capture: Yes Just like it's cousins, it's easy to catch, tastes good and gives good stamina recovery. This one is a bit different though because it gives more of everything, but that includes danger. When crawling in the grass, caves or vents you will often come across one. If it bites you, it will poison Snake. If you don't Cure Snake immediately, he will lose health constantly. It isn't really a big problem though, so feel free to knife the bugger. Milk Snake (Thanks to SYNTAXerror) ---------------------------------- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: Low Stamina Recovery: Minimal Capture: Yes Found in the swamp before Ocelot. These are the bastard children of the snake family (No, not the clones). These aren't even worth the effort, like the Treefrogs. SuperCop says: "The Milk Snake has a more subdued, faded look to the colors on its body. Coral snakes are bright, while Milk snakes are more of a 'creamy' tone." Parrot (Thanks to SYNTAXerror) ------------------------------ Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Minimal Capture: Yes Only found during The End battle. You can get it for your collection if you want, but once again, not worth the effort. Have fun. On a side note, you'll need it to get the EZ Gun (on any difficulty but V. Easy), so there are three locations: -On top of the building in the first area European Rabbit --------------- Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: Yes Found commonly later in the game, especially the area where The End is. This cute little thing is easy to find, hunt and digest. It tastes good and gives fairly good stamina. And when you kill it, it drops serum. Kenyan Mangrove Crab (Thanks to Terror and Semetaire) --------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Fairly Tasty Danger Level: Low Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: Yes Your average crab, it can be found in caves and water. It tastes pretty good, like all crabs, but gives fairly low stamina recovery. It also can hurt you if you get too close by pinching you with it's claws. it doesn't do much damage, and I've never even be pinched by one. You must really have to suck to get hurt by one of these. Colored Tree Frog (Thanks to IAmBeeflog) ---------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: Medium Stamina Recovery: Minimal Capture: Yes Found later in the game, anywhere there is ground. They taste bad and give little stamina. On top of that, they poison you. Throw 'em at guards, but don't eat. Vampire Bat (Thanks to IAmBeeflog) ---------------------------------- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Minimal Capture: Yes Generally found in caves, or any other small, dank, dark, dirty places crawling with insects (read:caves). They taste bad and give craptastic stamina. Don't even bother. Bigeye Trevally (Thanks to IAmBeeflog) -------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Minimal Capture: No Hey, a fish! Usually found in water, especially shallow water, kinfe it, kick it, shoot it, you'll get it. It's not one of the better fish, but it helps for your collection of eaten meats. Now, like all fish, it rots quickly. Eat fast. Markhor ------- Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: Low Stamina Recovery: High Capture: No A goat! More interestingly enough Para-medic says "markhor" means "snake eater" Only natural it would be here. It only appears when it's raining or at night. It's too big to be captured, so kill it. It drops not one, but 2 packs of meat. Woo! It's on par with the Gavial, only because the Markhor doesn't fight back. Actually, it kicks you if you get too close (Thanks to Kidney05) The White-Rumped Vulture (Thanks to Wingfield) ---------------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: High Capture: No It's a large bird of prey that feasts on dead carcasses. It's like a flying cockroach! It's first found at the mountain, and it isn't hard to miss. If you really want one, kill a few guards. Eventually, they'll come swooping down to have a feast. You can't capture them, but when you kill one, it drops two pieces, not one. If you interrogate the guards, one tells you that a vulture that just feasted on flesh has something special... Poison Dart Frog (Thanks to dementia1029) ----------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: Medium Stamina Recovery: Special (Posion) Capture: Yes It's just like the Treefrog. Except it's more colourful and poisons you! Joy! Just throw it at enemies, unless you like being posioned. I you do, then I also recommend the Lysol in your bathroom. Sunda Whistling-Thrush ---------------------- Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: Yes Found early in the game in Rassvet, this will be the best bird you'll hunt in a LONG time. I suggest stocking them up in cages. They taste good and recover a decent level of stamina. Cobalt Blue Tarantula (Thanks to Lecacy Dude) --------------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: Medium Stamina Recovery: Minimum Capture: Yes It's so small, that it almost goes unnoticed. That is, until it stings you. It stings you quickly and it will poison you so that your health constantly degenerates. Don't even bother, unless you like throwing animals at guards. Emporer Scorpion ---------------- Initial Taste: Bad Danger Level: Medium Stamina Recovery: Minimum Capture: Yes Exactly like the Blue Spider. Thai Cobra (Thanks to xboxrocks1027) ------------------------------------ Initial Taste: Fairly Tasty Danger Level: Medium Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: Yes Just like the other snakes, but this one will bite you out in the open, and is rather easy to see unlike the King Cobra. Worth the effort of capture, feel free to obtain one. In the area you find them, you might need them sine the air is rather thin thousands of feet up... Arowana ------- Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: No The biggest fish in the game. According to Para-medic, it also hasn't change physical appearance for millions of years. It tastes good and replenishes good stamina. Worth picking up in the caves. Coral Snake (Thanks to James Dunlop) ------------------------------------ Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: Medium Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: Yes This snake looks exactly like the milk sanke. There are only two ways to tell them apart. Eat it, or guage their reactions. The Coral Snake tends to bite without hesitation, while the Milk Snake will leave you waiting. Beware this snake's bite, since it will poison you. Usually found in deserts and swamps. Tom Mazzafaro says: "Obviously, this regards to snakes' coloration. And look closely, because it does indeed apply to these two snakes. With the coral snake the black stripe is surrounded by yellow stripes, which touch the red stripes, and vice versa with the milk snake. I also found it interesting that Para-Medic did not tell Snake about this difference. But anyway, just thought you should know." Maroon Shark (Thanks to Yuri Prime) ----------------------------------- Initial Taste: Fairly Tasty Danger Level: Low Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: Yes Another large fish. Feel free to capture, and eat. I'm pretty sure you can capture it. Beware, though. It's a fish, so it will rot easily. Taiwanese Snake (Thanks to James Dunlop) ---------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: Medium Stamina Recovery: Moderate Capture: Yes Another of the snakes. It's like all the others and almost exactly like the Thai Snake. It will posion you if it bites you, though, so be careful. Red Avadavat ------------ Initial Taste: Fairly Tasty Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Low Capture: Yes Another bird. Nothing special. It's the same as the others. It gives less stamina, so you might want to skip it, unless you're going for the Markhor rank. +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ Plants +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ Unlike animals, plants do not fight back, and the cannot be captured, so only the two basics will be included in the summary. Russian Oyster Mushroom ----------------------- Initial Taste: Bad Stamina Recovery: Low Can be found at logs, or tree trunks. It maintains a black appearance. It does not taste too good, but does quite a bit of stamina recovery for its size. Siberian Ink Cap ---------------- Initial Taste: Bad Stamina Recovery: Low The cousin of the Russian Oyster Mushroom, it can be found on logs and tree trunks as well, but it tastes slightly better. Golova ------ Initial Taste: Tasty Stamina Recovery: Moderate A fruit, obviously found in trees. It tastes good, like most fruit and give a decent stamina increase. You can probably head out to your nearest grocery store and buy a mango, all you cosplayers out there. Russian Glowcap --------------- Initial Taste: Fairly Tasty Stamina Recovery: Special (Recharges battery!) This is an odd one. A mushroom that glows in the dark and recharges your battery. Contact Para-medic after eating one for the first time, for a very humourous conversation. Yobloko Moloko -------------- Initial Taste: Bad Stamina Recovery: Minimal The other common fruit in the game, this one is nothing like the Golova. The only similarity it has to the Golova is that they're round. And are fruits. Not worth the ammo to knock down. Spatsa ------ Initial Taste: Fairly Tasty Stamina Recovery: Special (Puts eater to sleep) Need a nap? Take one of these. Snake will heal some stamina, since he is really not moving and is regenerating stamina. Although, you should be warned; do not eat one around a guard. Snake will snore, guard gets alerted, Snake dies in sleep. Get it? Use on Eva for fun. Good fun ;) Vine Melon ---------- Initial Taste: Fairly Tasty Stamina Recovery: Moderate A large plant that snake can eat. It's a melon, so naturally, it will taste good. It gives some good stamina too, so it's worth hunting for. Fly Allargic ------------ Initial Taste: Bad Stamina Recovery: Low Bad! Bad! This mushroom tastes bad,gives low stamina AND posions you! Only good for the EZ Gun collecting and poisoning guards. Other than that, avoid at all costs. Ural Luminescent ---------------- Initial Taste: Bad Stamina Recovery: Low Unlike the name suggests, it won't recharge your batteries. It actually poisons you. Have fun. Baikal Mushroom --------------- Initial Taste: Fairly Tasty Stamina Recovery: Special (Scaly Cap Antidote) Tastes pretty good for a mushroom and has a bonus healing feature. Joy! Russian False Mango ------------------- Initial Taste: Tasty Stamina Recovery: Moderate It's like a mango, but it isn't, as its name suggests. It's a good fruit to carry around, especially since it doesn't rot easily. It gives a fair bit of stamina too. +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ Misc. Food +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ This is the stuff that isn't from the jungle organically, or doesn't really fit in. Calorie Mate ------------ Initial Taste: Outstanding Stamina Recovery: Large You start off Virtuous Mission and Snake Eater with it, and can find a few more during the missions. This is the ultimate food. It gives tons of stamina, tastes excellent and will keep you satisfied for a long, long time. Instant Noodles --------------- Initial Taste: Outstanding Stamina Recovery: Large Considered a technological marvel in the 1960's. It's cheap, easy to cook, healthy and delicious. It is among the ranks of the Calorie Mate for the ultimate food. Russian Ration -------------- Initial Taste: Bad Stamina Recovery: Moderate Russian-issue rations, given to its soldiers. It is reputed to tastes extremely bad, but is very healthy, recovers a lot of stamina and will never spoil. Baltic Hornet's Nest (Thanks to MetalGearManiac) ------------------------------------------------ Initial Taste: Tasty Danger Level: Medium Stamina Recovery: Moderate This isn't a plant, nor is it an animal. So it goes here. Para-medic describes it as the "perfect food" for survival, since it has many nutrients, tastes good because of the honey and is commonly found. This is also one of the more dangerous things to hunt though, since when you knock it down, a horde of wasps will come at you and keep attacking, and will take out a chunk of your help. Hmm... that Hornet's Nest above that guard's head looks tempting. Maybe you should knock it down? +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ Hidden Food +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ Snake Liquid/Solid/Solidus -------------------------- Initial Taste: Outstanding Danger Level: None Stamina Recovery: Special (FULL BAR!) Capture: Yes Thanks to a ton of people who don't read the intro, I've added the Big Three. They're all silvery-white snakes that give amazing amounts of stamina and taste most excellent. And if you didn't notice, they're aptly named. Tsuchinoko (Thanks to Edward Kong, who proved existence of it 2 weeks ago) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Initial Taste: Outstanding Danger level: None Stamina Recovery: High Capture: YES! Edward Kong, the first person to find this snake, over two weeks ago. At the time I'm writing this, the MGS gaming world just started noticing 3 days ago. Read his experience: "I can now confirmed that Tsuchinoko does exist in the game and I have managed to capture one alive. Although Para-medic did mention a few time(you have to keep on calling her on the radio, while in the jungle and she will tells you this mysterious suppose to be lengendary snake) even before you battle with "The End" Here is how i caught one alive. It happened after "The End" battle. I use my Sonar to ping all the animals location and kills all the animals in that area map. But soon you will realize that there is a blip in your sonar, but when you try to move on the location, you wouldn't see any life form(I suspected it was kinda invicible), but your sonar tells you that there is something hidden there. I then walked to the sonar contact location(stand on the same spot as that dot) and put some mouse traps on the same spot(the time i did, I put 6 mouse traps around it). Then, I backtracked to Sokrevenno South then re-enter Sokrevenno North, then I heard my mouse traps had make a sounds. Moving to the location and found out that one of my mouse traps had successfully captured one Alive ! Upon opening "Survival View", I can see that "Tsuchinoko" seems to be eatable and gave you great healing on stamina." So, it is a small snake, that is undetectable by radar, thermal goggles and anything of the sort. Your only way to capture it so far is to set mousetraps. If you keep it until the end of the game ALIVE, you will unlock the Infinity Face Paint *cue angelic singing*. And don't worry if Eva lets it go at the waterfall. Just go back and pick it up. Survival Knife -------------- Initial Taste: ??? (I'm sure it tastes like blood) Danger Level: ??? (I'm also sure knife eating isn't dangerous) Stamina Recovery: ??? (Wouldn't this tear apart your insides?) Capture: ??? (Is it possible to tranq a knife?) That's right. Survival Knife.

A: Like you, or me, Snake's palette changes over time. He will grow accustomed to some food, or start o hate a food he once loved. Initial Taste is what it tastes like at first. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: Where can I get more info about the food? A: Para-medic is extremely helpful when it comes to background information and origins of food. And it's always worth it just to see how she and Snake interact. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: You forgot something! OR That's not right! A: And that's not a question, but contact me about it, and I will be happy to address it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: Every time I try to capture the Gavial, it wakes up. WTF? A: Like it says above, you cannot capture it. It is too large to carry, so it wakes up on you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: Why can't we eat the dogs? We can eat other strange creatures. A: Well, I don't really know. But there are many explanations for that, so pick one. My favourite is that because they were trained harshly to become guard dogs, their meat really isn't very good, and Snake knows this. Michael Duong says: "If you call Para- Medic when you get to the outside of Gorki Labs with the dog there, she and Snake has a convo where she forbids him to eat dogs or something, and Snake says "I'm fond of huskies myself" (Reference to Solid Snake's fondness for dogsledding?) That's prob why he doesn't eat the dogs." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: How come some animals are giving me more stamina than before? A: Along with taste, stamina improves as well. So feast on frogs early in the game. Then capture tons of frogs later and they'll give tons of stamina. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: You didn't include Snake Solid/Soiluds/Liquid! A: They're being put on last, because they rock. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: What do you get for eating all the food? A: You get the EZ Gun, unless you're playing on V. Easy mode. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Q: What does the "R." mean when collecting food? A: It means "raw". That's why only plants and animals have it, not the Calorie Mates or instant noodles. +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ Hunting Tips +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ First off, how to find animals. It isn't until later on in the game, you will get items to help you hunt, so you will have to rely on your eyes and ears for a while. Look at that patch of grass. No, the one farther to the left. You other left. Yeah. See that rustling? You're not causing that russling are you? Exactly, you're not. So that means there's an animal. Dive in there and find it. Okay, you've found it. Now what? Well, you can shoot it with a bullet to kill it and get its meat. Or you could tranq it and collect it whole, so it will never rot. Ever. Or you could always use the knife, which is much faster. Just crouch and hit Square. Simple, no? If you're feeling too lazy to pull out your knife, just punch-punch-kick the animal. It's faster than pulling out your knife, but also less effective. If it's a very dangerous animal, such as the Indian Gavial, I recommend shooting it. If you know what you're doing, go for the knife. Now, for plants, it's easier since they don't move. It's harder to see though. Luckily, there are mushrooms on some trees. It won't take long. The problem is finding mushrooms that won't give any negative effects and give a large stamina boost, while maintaining a smooth flavour. Now, once you get the Thermal Vision Goggles, hunting will be 10x easier. Now, just equip it, and you can see everything that can be collected in white contrast. See that white circle? That's a mushroom. You would have NEVER seen that without the NVG if you were just strolling by. There will also be some well hidden plants that restore medical supplies. Happy hunting! Eiji Koden says: "the motion detector does wonders for finding creatures in your vicinity. A better bet might be the Thermals or NVG, but if you're in the prone position crawling around and you can't see any in front of you with the goggles on, the motion detector can lead you to a rat, frog or snake. Same thing can be said about the sonar." Wes Hilton says: "Here's a tip for hunting the indian gavial, tranq it then knife it, it won't wake up unless you step on it." wake up unless you step on it." AlanS says: "The flying squirrel can be found in the trap-laden area after the wherehouse, where you later fight The Fear; obviously flying from tree to tree." Michael Duong says: "Grenades are amazing for hunting fish. You can usually catch the Magpies and the such with your survival knife. Just slash like crazy once you scare them up." James Dunlop says: "Also a tip for taking out Indian Gavials, if you approach from the side, where it's body is, it won't lash you with it's tail or bite you, then if you crouch and stab with the knife toward the back of it's head it should die in one hit, easy food" jordy says: "red to yellow will kill a fellow..... red to black has a venom lack.... therefore if red touches yellow then it is a coral snake and if red touches black it is a king snake :)" +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ Closing +_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+_+ Thanks to: Konami for making this game Hideo Kojima for not giving a damn what others think The True Hero for previewing this guide GameFAQs for hosting this guide All the people for contributing.

Youth Programs
Junior American Citizens
Students have participated in the DAR Junior American Citizens program since 1901. By reaching out to students in grade K-12 across the United States, the program fosters the idea that the rights and responsibilities of citizenship can and should be taught from an early age.
Through JAC clubs and contests, the Junior American Citizens (JAC) program teaches America's schoolchildren the principals of democratic government, good citizenship, and appreciation of American heritage and history.
- JAC clubs are available to all students. The clubs are sponsored by a DAR chapter and meeting frequency varies by club. JAC clubs are open to all students in kindergarten through high school. Members participate in community service and patriotic activities while learning history and love of America.
- There are JAC contests offered in art, creative expression and community service for grades K-12. Entries are judged by grade on three levels (gifted, general and special needs) so that every child may enter the contest regardless of ability. Children from youth groups, as well as schools, may participate in the contests.
Click here for an informational PDF handout.
For additional information about Junior American Citizens, please contact your local DAR chapter.
DAR Good Citizens
The DAR Good Citizens Award and Scholarship Contest, created in 1934, is intended to encourage and reward the qualities of good citizenship.
This award recognizes and rewards individuals who possess the qualities of dependability, service, leadership, and patriotism in their homes, schools, and communities. These students are selected by their teachers and peers because they demonstrate these qualities to an outstanding degree.
- This program is only open to high-school seniors whose schools are accredited by their state board of education.
- Only one student per year may be honored as a school's DAR Good Citizen.
- United States citizenship is not required.
- Additional rules and guidelines can be acquired by contacting your local DAR chapter.
Once a student is chosen as the DAR Good Citizen the student is invited to participate in the scholarship portion of the program. This consists of a personal statement and an essay. Student participation in the scholarship portion of the program is optional.
Click here for an informational PDF handout.
If you are an educator, please contact your local DAR chapter for additional information about DAR Good Citizens Award. If you are a parent or student, please contact your school for information.
Please note: The DAR Good Citizens Award and the Youth Citizenship Medal (formerly: Good Citizenship Medal) are two different programs. For information about the Youth Citizenship Medal, click here.
Adult Literacy
As many as 44 million adults in this country cannot read at levels necessary to succeed in today's society. The DAR has been working since 1989 to meet the needs of the increasing number of illiterate individuals. As a result of this mission, DAR members across the country are meeting the challenge and helping those with significant literacy needs to learn to read, to gain self respect and confidence, and to reach life goals that otherwise would not be obtainable.
Each year, DAR members accumulate numerous hours of volunteer service in the promotion of literacy among adults and children. DAR members teach English as a second language, donate books, help students prepare for their GED, tutor, mentor underserved students, read to the blind, record books on tape, distribute brochures on literacy, partner with literacy organizations, and raise funds for literacy. DAR members ask that mayors and local officials proclaim November 1 as National Family Literacy Day and encourage citizens to join DAR in becoming involved in literacy promotion.

Equipment & ergonomics of tables
A table is used primarily for dining or for laying aside various items. We group tables according to their purpose into:
- dining tables
- desks
- PC tables
- serving tables
- coffee tables
The most popular shape of a table top is a rectangle or square. If you have a large space you can have a round or oval table, which is usually larger and therefore takes up more space.
According to the ergonomic rules the minimum width of a place by the table for one person is 45 cm, but 60 cm provide more comfort.
Dining tables
A dining table can be situated independently or it can be connected to the kitchen cabinets or to the living room.
The table dimensions are based on the average size of the human body as well as on the space needed for dining. The more people the larger table you need.
Tables with round or oval tops are very popular thanks to the equal arrangement of all diners. On the other hand, they require more space.
Coffee and dining tables
The dimensions of coffee tables are not fixed. Height is the most important parameter and should correspond to the height of seating. The trend now is for lower seating.
Coffee tables are available in various surface designs, but they should always fit in with the interior.
Our portfolio also includes practical coffee tables, which can help resolve a lack of storage space.
Your interior will be awesome

text: Has anyone had any luck getting rid of their quad belly? I hate mine and would love to be rid of it. I see a lot of people say you've got what you've got and you have to deal with it. I'm not ready to accept that. I have some use of my abs. I have electrical stimulation units. Is there any evidence to show that would help if used on a regular basis?
