"Lent is an ideal time to make resolutions and go further. As scripture says - now is the beginning, now is the day of salvation," said Matthew Plese, author of Restoring Lost Customs of Christendom. In this informative book, Matthew Plese, who has devoted himself to studying and living the traditional calendar, takes us step by step through some of the most important ‘lost customs of Christendom.' Restoring them, here and there, one by one, we restore ourselves and our families to all that Catholic life can be. "We want to be part of the heavenly liturgy."  Matthew is a Third Order Dominican who lives in Chicago. He's a practicing Certified Public Accountant and Catechist. He is the President of CatechismClass.com, an online based organization whose mission is to make the best in Catholic religious education and Sacramental preparation available for those who need it. Matthew writes a monthly piece on apologetics and catechesis for Catholic Family News and a weekly column for the Fatima Center.  He is also the author of a number of books including Catholic Book Summaries: 54 Traditional and Contemporary Classics; Eschatology: The Catholic Study of the Four Last Things; Understanding the Precepts of the Church, and The Roman Catechism Explained for the Modern World as well as The Definitive Guide to Catholic Fasting & Abstinence. He also blogs at A Catholic Life.

I drink e i cocktail sono bevande che si ottengono da un mix equilibrato di ingredienti, alcolici e non, e aromi vari. Oltre ad avere una struttura proporzionata, queste miscele devono avere anche un colore ed un profumo bilanciati e coinvolgenti. Le frasi su drink & cocktail ci raccontano del ruolo dell’alcool nella nostra società. Drink e cocktail, cosa sono Molto diffusi in tutto il mondo e sempre più spesso sperimentati anche in versione home made, i drink sono la fonte di una continua innovazione, come la recente trovata di un'azienda italiana che ha lanciato veri e propri cocktail in bustina pronti per essere consumati. Se un tempo erano i protagonisti di aperitivi e dopo cena, oggi si adattano sempre più ad accompagnare anche i pasti tradizionali. Non tutti sanno che… Il termine cocktail è stato usato ufficialmente per la prima volta nel 1798, ma la sua etimologia è alla base di diverse teorie. C’è chi sostiene che derivi dalle parole inglesi cocked e tail, cioè coda di cavallo, per la vivacità di questo animale. Chi invece la associa ai termini cock's e tail, cioè coda del gallo, per il mix di colori che li contraddistingue ed, infine, il pensiero francese lo associa alla parola coquette, ossia portauovo. La popolarità dei cocktail comincia negli anni del proibizionismo quando la vendita degli alcolici era vietata e per migliorare il pessimo alcol di contrabbando si iniziarono ad inventare miscele da poter vendere nei bar clandestini. La lista ufficiale di cockatil L’Associazione Internazionale dei Bartender ha stilato una lista di cocktail ufficiali e riconosciuti e li ha divisi in tre categorie: gli Unforgettables o indimenticabili, i Contemporary Classics o classici contemporanei e i New Era Drinks. Il Gin Fizz, il Cosmopolitan e l’Espresso Martini sono rispettivamente esempi famosi dei tre gruppi. La Piña Colada, a base di succo d’ananas, è uno dei cocktail più celebri al mondo e spesso viene proposto in altre varianti sostituendo la base di frutta. Il Bloody Mary, famoso rimedio contro i postumi di una sbornia e fatto prinicpalmente con succo di pomodoro e vodka, è il giusto equilibrio tra dolce, salato e spezie. Ha preso piede negli ultimi anni anche l’Aperol Spritz un semplice drink rinfrescante italiano a base di Prosecco, Aperol, e Soda che trova numerosi consensi per via della sua freschezza. Tra i cocktail più venduti bisogna ricordare l’Old Fashioned, il Negroni, il Daiquiri, il Martini Cocktail, il Margarita, il Manhattan, il Mojito, il Whiskey Sour e il Moscow Mule. Infine, il Diamond Is Forever che viene servito solo a Tokyo presso il bar del Ritz Carlton è famoso per vantare il prezzo più altro dei cocktail, ma non per via degli ingredienti bensì perchè all’interno del bicchiere viene inserito anche un diamante da un carato.

Today we talk about modern classics!

Welcome back to the Horror Pod Class!  Today we are talking about a movie that is frankly.... well pretty rough. It's the 1980 film Cannibal Holocaust and while it has its problems and its problematic elements, it is often cited as both a horror classic and the first found footage film. Today, we are diving into the film that everyone always mentions but maybe hasn't watched start to finish. We both watched the whole movie, except Tyler skipped the turtle scene, and did some research about where a movie like this comes from and what cultural significance it might still have in our internet age.  Connect with Tyler and Mike at: The Horror Pod Class Facebook Group Signal Horizon on Facebook and Twitter Mike D on Goodreads The Signal Horizon Patreon Page But hey, before we get to that here is what we are reading and watching this week: The Best Horror of the Year Volume 11 edited by Ellen Datlow is frankly awesome. Her picks are always great and volume 11 has some of the best yet. It's out later this summer, make sure you preorder a copy.   We talk about the recently released on VOD movie Possum which is super creepy. It's about 90 minutes of some of the most uncanny stuff you will ever see.  Undertow Publications has released the first book in its Contemporary Classics line, which are hardcover signed and numbered collector's editions of recent seminal works. The first book, The Moon Will Look Strange by Lynda E. Rucker is shipping now and limited to 100 copies. Just look at how awesome that cover looks: The next book in the line is The Lost District by Joel Lane, due out later this year. Even more exciting, books 3 and 4 of the line will be The Fisherman by John Langan and Contagion by Brian Evenson. Runs will be limited and priority will go to those who have bought earlier copies so get on this train while you still can! Dark Corners of the Web: Dark Corners of the Web: A really great story that we first read in The Best Horror of the Year Volume 10 has been made into a great episode of Pseudopod.  Whatever Comes After Calcutta by David Erik Nelson. Helpful Links:   Rugero Deodato himself says just a horror movie about Cannibals, but we don't know if we totally buy it.  He has a short coming up in an anthology movie called Deathcember. Get smart with Tyler on Cinema Veritae with this reading from USC. For a great read about horror in general with a particularly good focus on slasher and mondo films, check out Adam Rockoff's The Horror of it All. From the 13th Floor, "The Horrifying, Controversial, and Secret History of the Snuff Film." Another great article from the FingeUnderground about snuff films and squish movies. From The Atlantic: "When a Snuff Film Becomes Unavoidable." Mike talks about the on-air suicides of Bud Dwyer and Christine Chubbuck. NEXT WEEK: Getting ready for Summer! The horror coming up this summer that you can't miss!

It’s been said that there are four things that God doesn’t know: He doesn’t know a sin He doesn’t hate. He doesn’t know a sinner He doesn’t love.
