Our 11th Podcast Town escapade finds us in the real-life town of Marshfield, Massachusetts. Billy interviews the hilarious Peg Davis, our literal resident expert. Peg cleverly explains why the town is called MARSH VEGAS and confirms that Steve Carrel indeed owns the general store that his sister-in-law runs because...well...he's a busy celebrity type guy.  Find out what else Peg reveals and how the BIT Players bring the town to life with their podcast segments and scenic adventures! Enjoy these highlights from the Marshfield Podcast Network: The DIY Show - YOU CAN DO IT: Hosted by newlyweds Molly and Hal Cunningham.  This week's projects include making your own boat and birdhouses. The couple bravely embarks on their homemade dinghy's maiden voyage while trying to avoid the many surfers dotting the shoreline. We are unsure how Hal got trapped in the rafters at Bob's Steakhouse, but we hope he finds his way out!  YOU BETCHA!: Hosted by the semi-nefarious Gamblerino siblings, Gil and Gilda. These two find ways for Marsh Vegans (VAY-Gans, not Vee-Gans) to bet on everything from little league games to Pickle Bowling and surf lessons. Gil even hosts a "speakeasy" game night in the house they inherited from their Granny Sisterino Gamberino. We are convinced that the fix is in at the Senior Center, but you can form your own opinions. (NOTE: Gilda and Molly are high school besties.) Hall of Fame - Marshfield: Bobby and Robby may or may not be broadcasting from the Senior Center's basement. We are unsure where they come from, how they know each other, or why they have a podcast. We DO know that they have an intense bromance going, and Robby's ancestors fought on the "wrong side" of the American Revolution. Their podcast conjures up historical characters, like Benedict Arnold, primarily to shame Robby and guilt him into paying for their Surf Fest entry fees and lunch overlooking a decorative balcony.  Sponsors include Mom's Donuts, Levitate Shops, 2025 St. Patrick's Day Surf Festival, BoB's Steakhouse, the Gamblerino Kids, Kane's Sign Shop, the Marshfield Senior Center, The Pickle Bowling Association of Massachusets, and the National Pickle Bowling Association.

Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that wants to be forever young. This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out and talk about the overall experience of aging as a queer person in an ever-changing society. With Ellie and Leigh both having birthdays around the time of recording this episode, they thought it would be interesting to take a look at the nonlinear experience of aging and the differences between coming out back in the day and coming out now. The entire concept of queerness has evolved and changed throughout time both as a political identity and a sexual one. There is widely used language and understanding of queerness and queer identities that just did not exist in the same way when Ellie and Leigh were gaybies.  When Leigh got married, she was only able to do so because gay marriage had been legalized in the state of Massachusets (not the entire country, literally just that state). Back then, even just being able to get married at all was astounding and a huge win. And honestly, that was not that long ago! Ellie talks about how when she first showed her girlfriend The L Word, Bailey asked her if Bette and Tina were married. This feels like a wild question to us, because of course we know that it was illegal to be married when this show was actually being made and aired. But for younger gays that have grown up with gay marriage being legal for the majority of their lives, that huge shift in queer rights and overall societal attitude toward the community that we experienced just doesn't register in the same way for them.  With the landscape of queer rights being continually nonlinear and unfortunately experiencing a backslide at the moment in many areas across the globe, it is so important for queer people of all ages to share our experiences with one another.  Remember, you can give us your own answers to our Q & Gay on Instagram and follow along on Facebook, TikTok, and BlueSky @lezhangoutpod.  Find your fav tol and smol hosts Ellie & Leigh at @elliebrigida and @lshfoster respectively.

This week's guest is renowned author and 2-time Massachusets state champion, FM Charles Hertan. Charles' new book, The Real Paul Morphy takes an all encompassing look at the complex legacy of Paul Morphy. Morphy is widely regarded as the best player of the 19th century, yet still might be underappreciated. What made Morphy's play so special?  Why isn't he mentioned more often in the chess G.O.A.T. conversations? What led to his unexpected mental health struggles? In addition to discussing Paul Morphy, we talk about why Charles retired at OTB chess near a peak rating of 2500 USCF, and Charles shares advice from his classic tactics manual, Forcing Chess Moves and offers some chess improvement advice.

6 de mayo de 2017. Región de Lombardía, al norte de Italia. Circuito de automovilismo de Monza. 5 de la mañana. Los maratonistas, Lelisa Desisa, Zersenay Tadese y Eliud Kipchoge, se disponen a realizar un intento de Breaking2: bajar de las dos horas en maratón. Sólo Kipchoge se acercó, quedando a 26” de la ansiada marca 1:59:59. Pero no fue ese resultado lo que pasó a formar parte de la Historia y, sobre todo, no fue ese resultado el acontecimiento que lo cambió todo, el acontecimiento que marcó un antes y un después en el atletismo. Ese día, los tres maratonistas iban equipados con las Nike Vaporfly, las primeras zapatillas con mediasuela reactiva y placa rígida de fibra de carbono en su interior; las zapatillas llamadas a cambiar las reglas del juego. Adiós a las clásicas zapatillas voladoras, ultra espartanas, y bienvenidas las amortiguaciones de hasta 39mm y con elementos rígidos en su interior; adiós a los compuestos de EVA y TPU, pesados y poco reactivos, y bienvenido el PEBA (polieter bloque amida). Y, sobre todo, con estas nuevas cartas en la mesa, adiós para siempre a las barreras de las 2h 02 y las 2h 14 en maratón de asfalto masculino y femenino, respectivamente. Según escribo esto, las nuevas barreras a derribar son las 2h 00 35 del atleta de Nike, Kelvin Kiptum, y las 2h 11 53 de la atleta de Adidas, Tigist Assefa. Sí, has oído bien, atleta de Adidas. Y es que la casa alemana ha dado un nuevo golpe sobre la mesa, añadiendo un parámetro más a la ecuación: zapatillas con mediasuela reactiva, elementos rígidos en su interior y, algo que todavía no he logrado asimilar, en un conjunto que se queda en unos apretadísimos 138g para la talla 42. WTF? Lo ha conseguido con su compuesto Lightstrike, hecho de TPU, que de algún modo extraño han logrado aligerar al máximo, manteniendo la capacidad responsiva. En el episodio de hoy exploraremos varias cuestiones. La primera es si de verdad estas súper-shoes son tal cosa. Ya he ido dando pistas de que efectivamente lo son y, a estas alturas de la película, también sabrás de sus maravillas. Pero habrá que acudir a los datos, los números contantes y sonantes, para demostrar que estas zapas mejoran los tiempos en carrera. Una segunda cuestión, una vez aclarado que las super-shoes funcionan, es por qué, qué beneficios concretos proporcionan y a través de qué mecanismos, si es la placa, la espuma, el peso, la geometría o una combinación de todo. Por último, una cuestión de más interés para la audiencia de este podcast: ¿puede esa magia de las super-shoes trasladarse a los senderos y la montaña? Lo cierto es que marcas de trail, como Hoka, The North Face, Adidas Terrex, Asics o Brooks, ya han implementado placas de carbono en sus modelos y, a juzgar por los resultados en UTMB 2023, en todas las distancias, parece que funcionan o, cuando menos, no perjudican. Para contestar esas cuestiones, nos apoyaremos en la ciencia más reciente, como es costumbre en este podcast. En concreto, nos basaremos en los hallazgos de dos grupos de investigación, el grupo de Wouter Hoogkamer, en la Universidad de Massachusets, y el grupo de Fernando González-Mohíno y Víctor Rodrigo-Carranza, en la Universidad de Castilla La-Mancha. Wouter Hoogkamer, por si a nadie le suena ese nombre, es quien firmó el estudio de donde salió el famoso apellido de las Vaporfly: Nike Vaporfly “4%”; ese “four percent” (ó cuatro por ciento) es el ahorro en economía de carrera que proporcionaron las Vaporfly v1. Venga, vamos acelerando, que el tema de hoy son precisamente las zapatillas para volar. Hechas las menciones de rigor, sin más dilación, vamos al turrón. --- Sígueme en https://www.instagram.com/correrporsenderos/ donde publico píldoras sobre trail running a diario en Stories .

Could the Boston Marathon Bombing have been a false flag? We, your podcast hosts, JC3, Big Joe, Pope Tony,  Sito, Mr. West, and Roadblock, venture into the heart of this intricate web of conspiracy theories. We take you back to the bloody aftermath of the bombing, the frantic manhunt, and the chaotic shootout that marked the end of the Tsarnaev brothers' reign of terror. But was it all as clear-cut as it seemed?We dig deeper, questioning Tamerlan Tsarnaev's alleged involvement with the FBI and drawing insights from Michelle McPhee's investigative book, Maximum Harm. Unraveling the threads of a potential cover-up, we dissect the Oswald/Zarnayev case, questioning the ease of Lee Harvey Oswald's re-entry to the US with his Russian wife in tow. The rabbit hole deepens as we scrutinize the controversial use of informants in law enforcement and explore the blurred lines between justice and crime.As we approach the climax of our discussion, we turn our gaze towards the eerie parallels with the Aurora Shooting, questioning the suspect's actions and the suspicious timeline leading up to the event. Our exploration of conspiracy theories does not end here, however. Join us as we question everything, diving headfirst into a world of intrigue, mystery, and maybe, just maybe, truth.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!

A bordo di un'auto di nuova generazione, Jeff Taylor e la moglie Amy si stanno trasferendo dal Massachusets in California, in cerca di una situazione lavorativa migliore. Durante il viaggio, la macchina ha un guasto ed un camionista si offre di dare un passaggio ad Amy presso la stazione di servizio più vicina onde chiamare il soccorso stradale. La donna svanirà nel nulla e Jeff dovrà ritrovare il conducente del tir per scoprire cosa sia accaduto. Sarà l'inizio di un incubo sulle strade roventi e un'ambiente isolato e ostile. Thriller ad altissima tensione, che vanta la partecipazione di un Kurt Russell in grandissima forma e il compianto J.T. Walsh nel ruolo di un villain terrificante e crudele. Breakdown non concede tregua, portando lo spettatore all'interno di un'atmosfera hitchcockiana, tutta giocata sulla strada, dove le sorprese non mancano ed il finale è tutt'altro che scontato. Un thriller duro e implacabile da recuperare, con una colonna sonora che incalza dal primo all'ultimo minuto.

I have finished the front and have knit about 3” of the back armhole.  Spinning: I have started spinning the Manx Loaghton again. I have spun 768 yards, or 15.2 ounces, of a 2 pound bag of roving. I've started spinning on this again. This spinning project is going to be in the works for a while. Kelly's Projects: Finished spinning and plying yarn from a black Shetland. This fleece was purchased in 2017 at the Monterey County Wool show. I got 1,290 yards out of 19 ounces. I've continued carding the Wensleydale X Cormo from Black Sheep Gathering in 2016. On average the fiber is about 4 inches long and very fine. It isn't carding up like a long wool at all. The staple length is longer than the Shetland, but the batts are super dense and puffy like a cormo or a merino would be. I won't be spinning this right away since I need a break from spinning black yarn! I'm still considering which of these blankets to make, but now I'm leaning toward the knitted Creeper.

This week on Flightless Bird, David prepares to hit “Buy Now” as he embarks into the world of Amazon, the company that notched up $116 billion in sales during the first three months of this year. Joined by Monica, he looks at how this company has slowly inserted itself into the American lifestyle, from TV and film, to products, to Alexa living in everyone's house, tending to their every need. David interviews Emily West, an Associate Professor of Communication at the University of Massachusets, about how Amazon's marketing made a brown cardboard box so popular. He also talks to the author of “Fulfillment,” Alec MacGillis about how Amazon's various factories are changing the face of America, city by city - as Amazon is now America's second-largest private employer next to Walmart.

Vaccine mandates, love them or hate them, they are most likely affecting you in some shape and form. But what exactly does the constitution have to say about mandates? On this episode, your political host, Will Wright, talks with Constitutional Professor Eric Berger about the constitutionality of vaccine mandates. Then they discuss a Supreme Court case that is often cited to justify mandates, Jacobson v. Massachusets, and lastly Will finally gets his chance to flex his knowledge of OSHA to the professor! Guest Bio:Professor Berger clerked for the Honorable Merrick B. Garland on the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit. He then practiced in Jenner & Block's Washington, D.C. office, where he worked on litigation in several state and federal trial and appellate courts, including the United States Supreme Court. Professor Berger's matters there included cases involving lethal injection, same-sex marriage, the detention of foreign nationals at Guantanamo Bay, and internet obscenity. Professor Berger teaches Constitutional Law I (structure), Constitutional Law II (rights), Constitutional History, Federal Courts, First Amendment, and Statutory Interpretation. He also teaches a class for undergraduates on Legislation and Regulation. He has been voted Professor of the Year by the upperclass law students six times. He has also received the College Distinguished Teaching Award (in 2010), the Law Alumni Council Distinguished Faculty Award (in 2018), and the John H. Binning Award for Excellence (in 2019). Professor Berger's scholarship focuses on constitutional law.  Much of his work explores judicial decision making in constitutional cases, with special attention to deference, fact finding, rhetorical strategies, and other under-theorized factors that help shape judicial opinions in constitutional cases.  His article Individual Rights, Judicial Deference, and Administrative Law Norms in Constitutional Decision Making, 91 B.U. L. REV. 2029 (2011), was named the 2011 winner of the American Constitution Society's Richard D. Cudahy Writing Competition on Regulatory and Administrative Law.  Professor Berger has also written extensively about lethal injection litigation.   Professor Berger has testified in the Nebraska legislature about a variety of constitutional issues, including free speech, lethal injection, and the process for amending the U.S. Constitution.  He is also the faculty advisor to the Law College's chapter of the American Constitution Society and to the Community Legal Education Project, which sends law students into Lincoln public schools to teach about the Constitution.Professor Berger served as Associate Dean for Faculty from 2016 to 2020.Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/faithpolitics)

1956: Dwight Eisenhower, está en plena campaña para ser reelegido cuando recibe una encantadora carta que dice: “ Estimado Ike, He decidido escribirle un pequeño discurso que podría ayudarle a ganar las elecciones: Votadme y os ayudaré. Bajaré los precios y también los impuestos. También ayudaré a los negros para que puedan ir a la escuela. Buena suerte en Noviembre, John Beaulieu, 13 años, sexto curso”. El jovencito pertenecía al Perkins School for the blind, de Watertown, Massachusets, la escuela para ciegos donde un profesor suyo lo ayudó a escribir con un punzón en papel grueso, esas líneas en lenguaje braile. Eisenhower no ocupó el discurso propuesto, pero el 24 de octubre, John recibió una respuesta. En la voz, Bárbara Espejo.

Hoy os dejo por aquí otro clásico entre los clásicos de La Llamada de Cthulhu, una aventura de rol de tres páginas que da mucho, pero mucho de sí. Esta aventura, co-escrita por Ricard Ibañez y Javier Gómez fue concebida en junio-julio de 1989 para el III Cap de Setmana de Simulació Històrica i Rol de Barcelona y personalmente es de las cosas más apocalípticas que he jugado. Un Primigenio no es poca cosa con la que tratar jeje La aventura se sitúa durante 1920 en el conocido como Triángulo de Lovecraft, dentro del estado de Massachusets y a caballo entre las ciudades de Arkham y Boston y una excavación arqueológica en el estado de Nueva York. La aventura fue jugada uno de los personajes ya vistos en La Tumba de Bast y funciona como un spin-off a la misma sin ninguna relación con la trama.

Eat Cool: Good Food for Hot DaysBy Vanessa Seder Intro: Welcome to the number one cookbook podcast, Cookery by the Book with Suzy Chase. She's just a home cook in New York City, sitting at her dining room table, talking to cookbook authors.Vanessa Seder: This is Vanessa Seder, and I'm here to chat about my new cookbook, Eat Cool: Good Food for Hot Days.Suzy Chase: You are a chef, food stylist, recipe developer, teacher, author, and founding member of Relish & Co. a Portland based culinary design collaborative and I'm excited to chat about Eat Cool. Your second cookbook, 100 plus recipes, tips, ideas, and support to help you eat and cook your way through hot weather. So Eat Cool is another one of these cookbooks that will pull us out of the pandemic rut. It's a fun versatile guidebook. What's the objective behind Eat Cool.Vanessa Seder: It just came from this organic place where I just started cooking in a new kind of a way and I found that I was getting good results. My body wasn't feeling tired or overly heated from the way we were eating. We were eating really delicious food. We didn't feel depleted. So it kind of encompasses a number of things, it's to cook in ways that reduce oven, stove top use, or making food items that require no cooking whatsoever. It's also cutting things in ways that kind of cut down on the cooking time. Eating foods that are naturally cooling, fruits, vegetables, grains, plant-based proteins and proteins that are lower in fat and less meat focused. And I'm not saying omitting all these things, but the food items that are heavier, alcohol-based, fattier to eat those more sparingly when it's really, really hot.Suzy Chase: What are some of the different cuisines that you include in this cookbook?Vanessa Seder: I'm really inspired by cuisines from around the world. In my first cookbook Secret Sauces, it also kind of has an international angle. So in this book, there are recipes that are inspired by, I would say Japanese Thai, Korean, Mediterranean, Indian, Mexican, middle Eastern, and maybe farm local source centric recipes. I grew up in Los Angeles. That's where I’m originally from, my grandmother was actually born there so I'm a true Los Angeleno and if you look at the history there, there's a lot of Mexican, South American, Central American and a lot of Asian culture. So I grew up eating a lot of that kind of food. Plus going up North, I have an aunt lives up North a bit. And so, you know, going into olive oil tastings and eating artichokes and all that kind of stuff, that was part of, of my childhood. So that kind of inspires a lot of my cooking style.Suzy Chase: So this is something that you don't often get in cookbooks. You have a list of five criteria for this cookbook. What are they?Vanessa Seder: Is it delicious and enjoyable to eat? Well, obviously that's very important. You know, I don't want anybody to go to the supermarket or the farmer's market and spend all this time and effort cooking food and having it not taste and look delicious. Number two, will it keep you relatively cool? So that's really important here when you're eating cool. I had all these recipes tested by friends and neighbors, and I asked them how they felt after cooking the different things or not cooking the different things. Cause there's a lot of recipes in this book for you don't even cook. And then I was in the kitchen on stop during the summer and I was developing into the fall winter, but it really did start. I did a majority when it was very, very hot, just seeing how I felt after eating these dishes that I was developing. So that was really important. The third one is, does it avoid the need for lots of labor and cooking? You know, you want to kind of cut down as much as possible, the cooking and chopping and cleaning when you're just so worn out at the end of the day. I tried to keep things simple so that it's not too time consuming. The fourth is can the home chef make it successfully? So yes, of course I also work as a teacher every month. I teach cooking at the Stonewall Kitchen headquarters here in Maine and I absolutely love teaching because I think that cooking is a life skill that everyone should have. And so the teacher, part of me comes out when writing a book too, and I want to make sure that everything is really clear and really well explained in the recipes so that people cooking the food, know exactly what to do when making the recipes. And then number five are its ingredients easy to find or can viable substitutions be provided. And for that definitely in a lot of the recipes I include in the head notes suggestions for where to put purchase hard to find items. There's always the internet these days as we've probably all use a lot of within the last year because of the pandemic. And if there's anything that's a little bit exotic, I offer suggestions for where to find those itemsSuzy Chase: Does eating something hot, actually cool, a person down.Vanessa Seder: I did a bunch of research on this. I am not a scientist, but I really explored this concept of why do people eat this way in hot climate. And what it is, is there a special protein structures called receptors in our mouth. And the one that kind of detects hot spicy food and drinks is called the TRPV1 receptor. And so when we eat or drink something that's hot or spicy, it triggers the TRPV1 receptor. And that cues, the nervous system to transmit a signal to the hypothalamus, which is kind of like our brains thermostat. So when you eat the spicy food or drink something hot, it triggers it. And what happens next is our body starts sweating and that's what cools down our body. So that's eating hot to cool, in a sense. So on the flip side of that, when you eat really cold rich foods, such as ice cream, or like an alcoholic slushie, which I actually have some of those in the book, but I say in the headnote to eat them sparingly, if it's really, really hot, it cools the body down a lot quicker, but it's more temporary because it has to work harder to digest it, which heats up your body.Suzy Chase: Now moving from hot to cold, let's talk about your soup chapter. What is the key to good gazpacho? Because I feel like you either get out-of-this-world gazpacho or you get like, so- so good gazpacho.Vanessa Seder: I, 100% agree with you there. Well, I was kind of on the fence actually, if I should include a good gazpacho recipe, just because there are so many out there in the world, but I think what it comes down to is that because everything is raw and in a gazpacho the end result really depends on the quality and ripeness of the individual ingredients of the soup. So if you're using tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, chilies, herbs that are peak ripeness during the summer and are from a farmer's market or a garden, obviously it's going to taste so much better than off season tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, right? And then you have the olive oil. So I think that really matters here. I'm lucky enough. I mentioned it before, but I have an aunt who lives in Atascadero California. That's near lots of vineyards and olive groves and she sends us bottles of really good olive oil, Pasolivo and Kitehawk farm, are some of my favorite that come out of that area. And so when I am making a gazpacho, I saved my really good olive oil for my gazpacho because it comes through. And then I would say the last part would be to bread or not to add bread. And I like adding bread in my gazpacho because I find that it absorbs some of the acid from the tomatoes and the vinegar, and also adding bread to gazpacho is a great to use an extra bread or bread becoming stale.Suzy Chase: How did it feel getting written up by Florence Fabricant in the New York Times, she is notoriously hard to impress, take it from me. She has never wanted to write anything about this podcast. Oh wow. She has written, I pitched her and she, she wrote try again. And then I pitched her more. Try again. She wrote that like four times to me, I just kept saying, I'm the only cookbook podcast Florence.Vanessa Seder: Wow, honestly it was a thrill and a highlight I have to say and I got an email out of the blue and when I saw who it was from, I got a little teary because I've been doing this for so long and to get Eat Cool, noticed by someone I respect and admire meant so much to me. And she said that she liked the book and thought it was a very timely subject and had some questions about some of the recipes in the book and it made me a little nervous, but I held my breath and I just did my best to answer them straightforwardly and accurately as best I could. It was just a really great honor that the book caught her notice, the notice of the great Flo Fab. What a great name, huh?Suzy Chase: Oh my gosh. I mean, you have to frame that.Vanessa Seder: Oh, I don't know if I'll frame it, but I'll definitely keep it.Suzy Chase: Definitely. Yeah.Vanessa Seder: It's definitely kept in a safe placeSuzy Chase: In the cookbook. You said the cold seafood spread is akin to the charcuterie, meze or cheese platter. Can you tell us about that?Vanessa Seder: I find that when it's really, really hot out, I love a good tinned seafood. There's a whole variety, you know, you can buy really inexpensive tins of seafood and they're fine for the most part. Or you can move up the ladder and purchase really expensive tins that come from Spain, all sorts of things like razor clams, kippers, herring, oysters, sardines. They're really all pretty good, I think. And so it's kind of a play on the charcuterie cheese board where you assemble a beautiful board, but with your tin seafood, but then you balance it with peppery greens, different sauces, crackers, chips, crudité all sorts of things like that. It just makes for a really easy meal when it's hot, as blazes outside.Suzy Chase: So normally when I start doing research for a cookbook, I look at every single one of the cookbook authors, Instagram posts, it kind of gives me a feel of their personality. And immediately when I looked at Instagram, I thought we need to be friends. She's my new friend. Yay. You have such a knack with photography. Your little family is darling. And I got so sad when I saw your beloved cat Birdie passed away, but then you rescued two kittens. So one particular Instagram post that caught my eye was the beautiful cookbook collection at the Lincolnville Motel in Lincolnville Maine.Vanessa Seder: He stayed there in 2019 feels like a world ago and we were up that way cause I was teaching a class at The Saltwater Farm Cooking School run by Annemarie Ahearn and it's this cute modern yet classic Maine inn and shout out to Alice who runs it. She's great. It's a little bit North of Camden, Maine. There's a lot of great restaurants up there, like Long Grain. So yeah, if you're ever in the area, you should make a trip, go up there, kind of a fun place to stay.Suzy Chase: For desserts on a hot day I have such a hard time thinking outside the fruit box. What sorts of ideas do you have for cooling desserts?Vanessa Seder: For the non fruit variety, I would suggest either the Chocolate Panna Cotta with salty Praline Peanut Crumble, Summer Corn Ice Cream, White Almond Sorbet, Ginger Cardamom Saffron Ice Cream, The Tropical Crispy Bars or the Malted Chocolate Icebox Cake. When I was creating this book, I purposely stayed away from shortcakes, tarts, pies, layer cakes, things like that because they take longer in the oven to bake and also when you're making something like a pate brisee which is a butter class of laminated dough, biscuit dough, the butter needs to remain very cold and that's really difficult to achieve when it's hot as blazes.Suzy Chase: Tell me about the Summer Corn Ice Cream. I've never heard of corn ice cream.Vanessa Seder: I think it's good, but you have to like corn, of course.Suzy Chase: I'm from Kansas. I love corn.Vanessa Seder: Well I didn't grow up with the best corn. When I started dating my husband, we met in college, he's from Massachusets. We went to go to his dad's house for kind of a grill outside and he served corn I just kind of blown away by the sweetness and quality of the corn we had, as simple as it was, and so that was my real introduction to New England corn and I have a huge respect for it and I wait all year to eat corn. I don't want to just have any corn and want that corn. So what I do every summer is I absolutely love making ice cream and so I used that corn and I soaked the cobs in the cream and the milk to get as much flavor out of the corn cob. And then I add the fresh corn to it and then I create a custard base and then run it through the machine. And it has a really intense corn flavor and it's just really delicious. I love it.Suzy Chase: That sweet corn is like heaven on earth.Vanessa Seder: I think so too. I mean, that's the thing. I don't think everyone loves corn. I don't know why, but we all love corn here that sweet summer corn. And if you like things like, like a corn custard or a cream corn, then you'll love the ice cream.Suzy Chase: Okay. Here's a super random question. I would love to hear about your dining room table.Vanessa Seder: Well we love antiques when we were first in Maine we went in search of a table and we ended up finding the table that it was in Buxton, Maine, and it was in a barn and it was just sitting there. It barely cost us anything and it had been in the same family for over 50 years and the why they were getting rid of it, but we just absolutely love it. And it's where we gather. And it served our family really well and we just love it and we try to take as best care of it as we can. I love old things. I like new things too, but I think it's also better for the environment. You know, you're just repurposing and you're loving something again and you're bringing new life into it. So I'm all for that. I.Suzy Chase: I know you're endlessly curious about food. So what is some sort of culinary thing you learned this past?Vanessa Seder: Okay, well this is gonna probably sound boring and a bit cliche at this point.Suzy Chase: Sourdough?Vanessa Seder: Wow. How did you guess? I mean, there's not much to get, I mean, we just really upped our sourdough starter making game and it got to this point where we were making bagels and bread and it became part of our weekly cooking rotation. But between working and remote school this year, our daughter's been in remote school all year. It just was hard to keep it going. And also it was just getting to this point where we were just eating way too much bread. So I would say that ultimately this year was about figuring out ways to avoid shopping as much as possible and getting really creative with leftovers in our fridge.Suzy Chase: You have a section called Fun with Rotisserie chicken. There's six options to make rotisserie chicken more interesting. When it's a hot hot day to pick up a rotisserie chicken is such a lifesaver. So I made your Quicker Shawarma recipe over the weekend. Can you tell us about this recipe?Vanessa Seder: Well, what did you think? First of all.Suzy Chase: I loved it And it was so easy and fun for my family and easy for me to make because it's a rotisserie chicken. It's great for moms everywhere, but that sauce was so darned good.Vanessa Seder: Which sauce did you use?Suzy Chase: It was the chili sauce. The toasted garlic and chili sauce. And I didn't have chili's so I used jalapenos.Vanessa Seder: Perfect. I love that. You're improvising. So my point with this page, which is kind of a sidebar was that if you're so hot and so tired and so burned out, go get a rotisserie chicken. There's nothing bad about it. And you don't have to just think of it as chicken leg. You can transform it into so many dishes shawarma is cooked on a vertical spit for hours. And so this is a huge shortcut. And why heat up your kitchen? When you can just go to the store and get her history chicken, season it up, put it in a slightly warmed pita, add a sauce of your choice. I offer a couple suggestions, top it with some lettuce and tomato, yogurt, but you can improvise too, you could add some avocado. It's a loose interpretation, obviously, you could add hummus anything you'd like, but I'm glad you enjoyed it.Suzy Chase: It's a full dinner. You don't have to make a side or anything. You just shove everything into the warm pita. And by the way, what's better than a warm pita?Vanessa Seder: I don't think anything. Nothing, right? Yeah. It's great. A warm pita is just delicious.Suzy Chase: Over the weekend. I sort of combined pages 111 and 113 to make grilled shrimp with herb butter, tomatoes and micro greens on sourdough toast. I really, really love the toast idea.Vanessa Seder: Why have two pieces of bread when you can just have one and still feel like you're getting a full meal. And I'm glad you combine the recipes actually. I mean, I tell students this, when I'm teaching that you can look at a lot of recipes as just kind of a loose blueprint or a jumping off point to improvise, but I'm really glad that you're having fun with the book and you're improvising from it. If you don't have all the ingredients that I hope people are doing that.Suzy Chase: Now for my segment called Last Night's Dinner, where I ask you what you had last night for dinner.Vanessa Seder: So I started off with some really good olive oil, and then I toasted leftover pasta. I think we had rigatoni so I toasted that up in the pan until it got kind of like crisp chewy tender and it had some more texture to it. And then I added some nice asparagus and fresh garlic to that and just kind of tossed it through and just heated it so that the asparagus was kind of crisp, tender, a little bit of salt and pepper. And then I added eggs to it and I kind of scrambled it all together and then a little bit of spicy chili and a shaving of parm. And then we had it with Cortaterre. It's an Oregon Pinot Noir. It's just fabulous. We really are into good Oregon Pinot Noir.Suzy Chase: I want to give a shout out to your editor, Jono Jarrett.Vanessa Seder: I think you should. He's incredible. I can't say enough good things about him. I love Jono.Suzy Chase: You know, we are from the same hometown.Vanessa Seder: Stop. It really?Suzy Chase: Yes. We're from Prairie, Kansas. We're Instagram friends. And I'm like, wait, how did I, how did I not know you? My mom has to know your mom!Vanessa Seder: What a small world. It is a small world. He was just so great and involved in so much of this book and he would ship props over, you know, cause I did all the propping styling with Stacy and Jennifer, the three of us did the book together and everybody contributed so much to this book. It's really a huge process to write a cookbook. Yeah. He was just such a wonderful editor to have.Suzy Chase: So where can we find you on the web and social media?Vanessa Seder: VanessaSeder.com or RelishandCo.com and then I'm @VSeder on Instagram.Suzy Chase: Eat Cool is going to be my go-to at the beach house this summer.

This week on Beer Sessions Radio, Jimmy is following the grains trail from before the beer to way after. On the show is Tyler Fitzpatrick from Lamplighter Brewing Co. in Cambridge, MA; David Brand from Blue Ox Malthouse in Lisbon Falls, ME; and Kyle Fiasconaro from Brewer's Crackers in Somerville, MA. Kyle takes us back to his first memory noticing a dumpster full of spent grain left outside a brewery, coincidentally right across from a bakery. As a brewer, Tyler explains just how difficult it can be to handle spent grain, especially when you are in a city with limited space. According to Tyler, it’s every brewer's fantasy to have somebody easily take all the spent grain off your hands, and one day, Kyle made that a reality. Jimmy then takes it back to the beginning, having David walk us through a day in the life at the malthouse. David falls at the intersection between brewing and agriculture and is able to connect local brewers with regional farmers. David, Tyler, and Kyle explain just how much effort goes into the grain, and how much potential is still left over after the beer has been bottled or canned. Finally, the gang wraps up with a quick conversation about rye, and David predicts what we can expect from the next generation of “beer nerds.”Drink list:Orbiting Blue Ox- Wormtown BreweryDubliners- Lamplighter Brewing Co.Photo Courtesy of Kyle Fiasconaro.Heritage Radio Network is a listener supported nonprofit podcast network.

We staan nog altijd recht tegenover elkaar. Ook vandaag is de ruzie tussen Turkije en Nederland niet bekoeld. Nederland kan dankzij Euro-commisaris Timmermans inmiddels wel rekenen op de steun van de EU. Maar hoe kijken Turkse denkers en intellectuelen naar deze politieke ruzie tussen hun land en Nederland? Mustafa Akyol is één van hen. Hij is schrijver, en onder meer vaste columnist bij de New York Times, en de belangrijkste Engelstalige krant in Turkije: Hurriyet Daily News. Daarnaast werkt Akyol als onderzoeker aan het Wellesley College in Massachusets.

Night-time satellite images of the Korean peninsula – showing North Korea as a black hole surrounded by the gleaming lights of economic powerhouses like China, Japan and South Korea – have become a click-winning favorite among online media outlets. Most recently, footage captured from the International Space Station made headlines worldwide with a raw display of disparities between North Korea and its more well-off neighbors. But while the contrasts apparent in such footage is visually stunning, it is not very informative, according to researchers. "We don't need satellites to tell us (that) South Korea is more economically developed than North Korea," said Travis Pope at UC San Diego, adding that "simply comparing North Korea to its neighbors can be either misleading or lead one to make nothing but obvious comments". "We don't need satellites to tell us (that) South Korea is more economically developed than North Korea," But if applied correctly, analyses of night-time satellite imagery – so-called 'luminosity studies' – can fill an important knowledge-gap about a country on which information is notoriously scarce, as is illustrated by the works of a handful of researchers around the globe. USEFUL COMPLEMENT For countries on which socio-economic statistics are scarce – like North Korea – researchers are in want of indicators that can substitute, or at least add to, traditional data. “Luminosity might serve as a useful proxy for output because it is 'objectively' measured, is highly correlated with output, and is universally available for the world except for the high latitudes,” according to a paper written by Yale researchers Xi Chen and William Nordhaus from 2010. Due to noise in the light signals, light density data as a proxy for Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has limited value for countries with functioning national statistical bureaus. But, according to the paper, for regions with poor data, “luminosity shows considerable promise”. Recently, researchers have attempted to apply this to the case of North Korea. Travis Pope, along with UCSD professor Stephan Haggard, has been looking into what luminosity data from night-time satellite imagery actually says about the state of affairs in North Korea, as can be viewed in recent posts at the 'North Korea: Witness to Transformation' blog. The data – images from the National Geophysical Data Center's (NGDC) Earth Observation Group, collected between 1992 and 2012 – are composite images, one for each year, pieced together by a range of momentary shots, allowing the observations to avoid random changes, and to pick up smaller sources of luminosity. But there are caveats when it comes to using the data. According to Pope, among the biggest of them – a phenomenon called 'blooming' – happens when light emanating from one grid cell in the dataset 'blooms' into neighbouring cells, causing them to appear lit even when there are no light sources within them. This makes assessments about locations along national borders particularly difficult, Pope said. There's also the issue of inter-calibration between the various compund images. Since the sensors picking up the data have not been adjusted to the same measurement standards, it becomes difficult to compare changes in absolute luminosity over time. What is possible, however, is to measure the relative share of total luminosity held by each geographic region, and look at how those ratios develop over time. Using this method, Haggard and Pope have made approximate inferences with regards to regional developments, comparisons between cities, and urban-rural development gaps, finding increases in economic activity in and around Pyongyang, as well as in areas close to the Chinese border in recent years.
