How Does An Electrical Outlet Work

Coronation Khukri XXX Rum

At last I have again - hopefully for the future regular - The leisure to continue the blog.

The rum to which it will turn into one of these lines is a little exotic, and his home country Nepal is listed only in the rarest cases as typical Rumnation.
would probably the product can be perceived as much less if not for the eye-catching packaging would be. I must admit - it has to buy for me not influenced consciously, but maybe in the end was the icing on the cake that I have left the rum does not continue on the waiting list.

end but now is the Coronation Khukri XXX in front of me in a bottle, which is the eponymous, typical Nepalese dagger Khukri modeled. About the origin of the XXX found no further information.

The rum is in Kathmandu by the Nepal Distillery Pvt. Ltd. (NDL), produced and bottled. The prevailing cool climate, clean air and fresh spring water, according to (probably not updated in a long time) site the quality of the rum very positive influence.
The NDL is even since the 1960s and seems to be the leading spirits company in Nepal. Whether the rum itself has 80% market share in Nepal or (more likely for me) 80% of the production of the NDL mind, I was not clear from the site.
is produced nowadays in modern column stills, their subsequent storage in oak barrels a minimum of 8 months.

At least two different Rumabfüllungen in circulation. On the one hand, the presented "Coronation Khukri XXX" dagger in the bottle and on the other hand, only rum called "Khukri XXX" in a regular bottle.
Whether this normal bottles now contain the same rum, or just the same rum from various fillings, is not finally resolved, because the site lets the consumer here in the dark and the Rumfreunde by Ministry of Rum are also not agree.

before it finally to the relevant Tastingnotizen is still a little warning: The promised feet are - to say the least - an optical mistake. From thick-walled cardboard must work with two small "blocks" to fold and put the bottle on it that just does not look good in the shelf. Too bad, because the dagger itself attracts even now some attention.
Where we are on the package criticism: The closure is also cautious. The black handle is easily attached, including a normal screw cap is found. If you turn the handle but this can break the seal and stain ...

Regardless, it counts, including the contents. Since the package can still be so beautiful when the product is not is good, it also does not come into the house. And of course the other way around ;-)

Coronation Khukri XXX Rum

appearance: dark walnut brown, very own. The have short shelf life has really helped caramel. Light streaks in the glass, otherwise clean and clear impression.

Smell: Unusual for dull rum-sweet, slightly metallic and to earth. Later have to add wood and nut / marzipan aromas.
The smell is rather difficult to hang in the air.

Taste: initially on the tongue dry, then always sweeter the further it goes toward the palate. Sherry notes emerge. On the palate it difficult to describe, a little caramel weakened by a vague spice. Has a little bit of a well-stocked humidor.
follows in the finish slightly bitter cocoa.

Conclusion: So "masculine" as it advertise some online stores, I can not find the Khukri. He offers no strong flavors, they are nevertheless differentiated or less, but never really strong or even "challenging".
A nice rum in between - neither more nor less. Given the price, but I would say other choice - unless the collector comes by instinct and you want Nepalese Rum dagger in bottles. :-)

further information: Bottler: Distillery Nepal Pvt. . Ltd.; Alcohol: 42.8%; Approximate Price: 25 € (0.35l)

Where I mentioned before the smell of a well stocked humidor mentioned - with a mild cigar I could well imagine a fine harmony. However, the focus should
confine yes on Liquid. Accordingly, I was looking for a perfect cocktail, rum where it could play to its strengths. Sours, I had recently enough, so was the standard recommendation for testing schonmal flat.

I was looking for But what really suitable would not be found. Such "moderate" rums are always difficult to use.
then I saw in "... and a Bottle of Rum by Wayne Curtis said the 1948 recipe from Trader Vic for the Myrtle Bank Punch (which has played a role as a basis for the " Hell in the Pacific ") and I was able to present the rum a bit - not as a superior spirit, but in a beautiful harmony with the maraschino liqueur.
A quick search in other books and online media promoted Unfortunately, very little useful light - appear to have the most clear-cut distinction between the original never Myrtle Bank Punch and the newer Hell in the Pacific ... So great are the differences now, but they produce but I think ultimately a completely different drink.

Myrtle Bank Punch
  • 1BL Barzucker
  • soda
  • 2.25cl lime juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1.5cl pomegranate syrup (Giffard)
  • 1.5cl maraschino liqueur (Luxardo)
  • 4.5cl aged Jamaican rum (by Khukri substituted)
preparation
sugar, lime juice, pomegranate syrup and rum together shaken on ice, place on Cracked Ice in a highball glass and fill with soda. Finally, the maraschino liqueur float. Decorate to taste Serve with straw.

Actually the more intense red
The appearance is striking a deep cherry red, very subtle gradient and an overall very innocent picture.
The nose is first come out the typical bitter, clear touch of maraschino liqueur. In addition, surprisingly sweet Rumgeruch appears.
Quite complex seems to be the drink, after a short wait, the different components work quite well.
-solid drink -
more Unfortunately not.
The taste is pleasant. A slight tingling sensation through the soda makes itself felt comfortable, some "strength" is slowed down by it.
On the tongue, you are making mainly the sweet ingredients until they combine cleverly with the maraschino. The departure comes on the rum more, while withdrawing the other components themselves. Fine transition, the departure is smooth and slightly tart.
The revelation is now the cocktail is not, but quite useful. By the soda nice and light, may be also a morning drink are.

Now I stand here with the rum and wonder what to do with them. Occasionally Pure drinking? Since I have more exciting things. Use in cocktails? Difficult. are in the cabinet as a decoration make? If not for the legs would ... :-)

thumbnail Berlin Marathon

Yesterday I first time on Photo Marathon participated. The autumn mini-version, which was held on the occasion of the European Month of Photography in Berlin. Mini is large compared to the marathon only 25 participants and only four issues to be fired in chronological order to a general topic within three hours on the memory card. At the big photo-marathon this summer in Berlin was attended 600 people, a motley between amateur and professional photographers, individually or in teams. They had to deal with in 12 hours 24 topics. The first prize in 2010 was the way one participant with a compact camera. So please do not stress technique and believe the Photo Marathon would only elitist art. It is ultimately about the specified Subjects combine well with the main heading and continued to write creatively a line. It is about seeing and creativity.

The weather did not in time for the start of rain-free zone, and so could I and Susan we primarily focus on the world outside, although we are the first photo (on which more and the respective subscriber numbers are mapped must) or in a nearby cafe transpose. Susanne with spray cream (amazing where one receives everywhere in Berlin spray cream and just as amazing, where and when to spray cream in Berlin will also get rid of) and me with matches. If the first photo is in the box, it flows only of ideas, an exciting Process. The remaining subjects gave us the Friedrichshain environment. Three hours later we came back in the Orange Gallery together. There hang the way until January 2011, the series of the Berlin Marathon winner 10x photo with this year's winners of the photo-marathon in Copenhagen and Cardiff. We looked at our photos together, which makes up with a great charm of this marathon - the creativity and implementation of the other topics to learn. The results were partially oriented technology (you can see immediately who plays at the Canon Camera Workshop) was incredibly creative and elsewhere in the short term. You see, there are the photographers with her company (model allowed) had incredible fun. There were elaborate productions, and to see street photography par excellence. The most interesting photos on 3 Topic to laugh , humor, and remains a very subjective issue.

The main topic was Here I am human and businesses (which are shown in the exact chronological order) had

first Out of pure pleasure (with subscriber number)
second Secret places
third Laugh
4th Shopping Spree

With such a mini-marathon photo you can make even dull winter days quite well even with friends, to force himself to going out (there is no bad weather ...). We actually need only A few colleagues and a theme generator that should the external photographer with ideas for topics to be generous. We do it again, until the big photo marathon next summer, it is still a long time ... the next year in Berlin by the way, on 06/18/2011 instead. Click to subscribe to stay up to date. Showing the way for fellow team's organization wanted!

Here are my pictures, the photos of the others are hopefully soon to be admired on on flickr, if they are shared by the participants ...

Stardoll Dkny Skyscraper

second job: Photographer

that the common tendency for photographers to second job in itself is not alien is rooted in the nature of the meager salary. Forget it. And of course we recommend the tendency of an artist's soul to be other art forms to services. Thus one encounters again and again people from show business whispered about behind closed doors is "The shot now!" While the other makes no secret of its appeal further.

Bryan Adams, for example, younger generations might now be more familiar as a celebrity photographer and charity, as a musician. Not that he would still not produce a consistent and regular plates and continuously filled concert halls around the world, but he just produces his own fashion and photography magazine ZOO and has long since made his name as a photographer. Oh and yes, he can - convince yourself!

or Helena Christensen. But this can perhaps be very close access to as a model at some point up the camera like the wait over the years on the set of course an intense study leave come in the same light setting. Christensen has been operating successfully - and by the way for professional training in photography - now more behind the camera than in front. With understated way. A website that offers the mortals their skills? Has it not necessary!

Dennis Hopper, a gifted actor, director, painter and photographer, simple trades, took the photograph for self-fertilization for all his other skills and talents: "I did something that I thought it would one day have meaning could. It's really these photos that have inspired my creativity. "

That may also apply to Jeff Bridges, who for 30 years on the film set too happy to demonstrate the work behind the scenes, and this intimate working moments on camera on his website like , partially with humorous comments, documented. And his photos processed later as a book presented to the crew, as a reminder for the joint work. Bridges photographed with a Widelux, a 35mm panoramic camera lens with wings.

As part of the European Month of Photography in Berlin, which today officially starts, in the Imperial Hall of the Museum of Photography ever since the first October 2010, the photo exhibition microphotography. Beauty beyond the visible shown. Almost by chance, I'm already a day later got into the exhibition because, finally, the Alice Springs-exhibition would be. And I was thrilled, as were all other accompanying my friends. The photographs show the development of micro-photography with very early-tech exhibits, from 1840 up to today's era. Previously the micrograph so only the scientific research and discovery was served supportive, this form of photography today colorful happy also presented as an art form.

The exhibition reveals this way of presenting exhibits and the first photographer in this subject and brings the viewer right up close to the surfaces of minute natural creatures or chemical structures. It is infinitely touched and fascinated, as one example, before the series of countless different snowflakes in an ancestral gallery shown separately.

It is typical Berlin charm when a market hall preparing cultural place to be. This does present the Marheineke market hall in Kreuzberg in her gallery on the top floor where the store after the long hall renovation would not work as planned. The area is now free to give exhibitions and the first was this year, the cartoonist, Klaus Stuttmann with his political cartoons, followed by Berlin photographer Wolfgang Krolow, in the a show of his photographs showed the Kreuzberg district.

Pink Tinged Cervical Mucus At 6 Weeks

finally understand light setting in the studio!



This is the book on the particular aspiring studio photographer have been waiting for: " light and lighting in the People and portrait photography " by Friedrun Reinhold. In his preface, says Reinhold pragmatic of his career as a light artist, namely his own failure as a young photographer in a studio as it too much choice of light sources and forms is presented and he has to surrender with his theoretical knowledge prior to practice so much possibility. And so, Reinhold rises very quickly to the practical work with a light sources. Here, the chapters that light can be explained as such, the development of their own studios or working with light meters conceivable brief and dealt with quickly. And rightly so, who buys this book to expertise on these issues has long been appropriated. Must not deter the fifth chapter to the individual lighting systems known to the market. As a professional photographer Reinhold is Friedrun understandably on the system of a professional studio lighting manufacturer and its extensive equipment. The beginner or advanced amateur range, the studio lighting equipment and accessories producers, cost only a tenth of the technology used in the book.


links theory, practice right - the ratio is just right!

The rest of the book consists of pure practice. Clearly structured. Chapter six is all self-taught my heart out, which sees the purchase of his first studio complex from a wide variety of available light former overwhelmed. There are the tasks of all the available light shaping Tools and discussed in detail virtually the still life bust on base with good light drawing and shadowing under the same conditions of distance and technology - if possible - be presented. Whether snoot, beauty dish or hard-box, with or without honeycomb, soft boxes in all versions of Oktra to Strip Light, umbrellas in white, silver or transmitted light shade. Shall be drawn in a similar situation with the light of different effects. A professional photographer will take more suggestions for the day all too well established, but the layman receives a first comprehensive look at the lighting design and in the end decide for itself in the position to which light shaping his idea of portrait photography comes closest. I think this particular chapter was in the making pure hard work, but for the viewer of high value and long as you want.

See the following section for a further exercise of light, now under the use of studio lighting, background and reflectors - this time on a living subject in the portrait. While the right side, the photographic result in CloseUp sees the left is the studio building painted and provided with supplementary notes on the case of light and shadow.


Clear structure - left the studio building, right, the result

This would be the only to name a criticism of the book, the drawings are perspective unfortunately only average. And so it sometimes takes a while before you can enable the construction inside. The same principle is followed by chapters 8 and 9 - once carried out of the studio, on location used. And converted back to work in the studio, but now literally staged photographs with significantly more effort and technique, as is also painted with color.

"Light and lighting in the People and portrait photography is a plus for studio photographers and those who want to be. Friedrun Reinhold goes on light and color composition brief but clear and explanatory, and the reader understands the impact much better result in what light, reflectors, reflectors and distance to the background in the result of a photo. The great advantage of this work is ultimately the spade work done by the author - and that was in studio photography, sir, long overdue. Music: My recommendation!

"Light and lighting in the People and Portrait Photography" by Reinhold Friedrun appeared in the series "The ProfiFoto EDITION" in mitp -Verlag, ISBN 978-3-8266-5938-6, € 39.95 , excerpts are available here.

How Long To Get Transition Lenses

Gin Tonic

just the spirits industry has always provided new marketing campaigns for affluent consumers. Be it directly through television advertising, more indirectly through ominous Blog Battles, still camouflaged by greasy relationship or simply through obviously pretty useless packaging and sale offerings, there are nothing that does not exist.

Predestined for odd advertising course, companies that already offer unusual products. In the area of Hendrick's Gin is a clear representative of this genre.
Gin from Scotland, alongside juniper with Bulgarian rose and cucumber salad flavored, just 200 liters per batch, made from the blended distillates, which are generated by two old and rare stills - but it still sounds promising.
The lovingly crafted and entertaining website this gin is already a great visual treat. What I could but in the duty-free shop to see in Dusseldorf, expanded my horizons, which detached Advertising is concerned, considerable: An oversized cardboard, gin all over with classic drawings, (t) cocktails, cucumbers and tea overwhelmed, which includes a bottle of Hendrick's and a porcelain cup and saucer included.
the gin I wanted to try anyway times, price was also attractive, and the collector instinct immediately struck by. Bought!














At home I was able to classify the twisted idea of advertising at last. Full of self-conviction claims Hendrick's, that of the "two-legged dachshunds from Borgou in Benin" about the "incredible Schrupfmänner from Pangkalpinang" to be "noble and wonderful experience of Hendrick's gin," the most extraordinary things is often the most remarkable.
This is the reason why Hendrick's believes that teatime was much more pleasant if one would opt for an alcoholic beverage instead of the classic cup of teas .
The next teatime should I take the mundane and pour yourself a cocktail Hendrick's.
is the end of the manufacturer, only the question of what justification is still needed except the fact that life is just too glorious as that one should not quirky pleasures of Hendrick's gin experience.
looks so simple and down to earth from the rationale for the puzzling Packing. ;-)

are also printed three recipes that I would not hide from you. For the classic race at the cocktails follows a brief review.

Tea Time Martini
  • 6 large mint leaves 1 BL
  • rose petal jam
  • 1.5cl lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 5cl Gin (Hendrick's)
preparation
all ingredients in a teapot and fill with ice. Strong pull stir and let ("[...] leave to brew "). stylish and elegantly served in the Hendrick's tea cup.

Flora Dora
  • 1.5cl lime juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1.5cl raspberry syrup
  • 5cl Gin (Hendrick's)
  • Ginger Beer *
preparation
all ingredients in a shaker and shake well. Serve on ice in the tea cup, with two raspberries and lime slice garnish.

* Ideally, non-carbonated ... ;-)

Unusual may well be the flattering description, and so completely I can not believe that one should seriously heat up the whole drink with ice in the two recipes.
matter - Gin Tonic with the Scottish product has been well established in the bar menu in the world:

Hendrick's & Tonic
  • 5cl Gin (Hendrick's)
  • Tonic Water
preparation
Hendrick's on ice to give top up with tonic and garnish with a slice of cucumber.

Already the formulation of this classic is very used to and probably draws more attention to itself as the drink inside. Ice cubes in a teacup ... really only useful as a gag.
flavors are more subtle then present clear juniper notes with incredible freshness ubiquitous cucumber. Unmistakably, a slight sweetness, not to mention the bitterness of tonic Waters altogether.
releases flavor continues the olfactory impression, and it shows the advantage that only very little besides gin tonic water and ice may be in the cup. Fairly mild and balanced presents the Gin a slightly confusing cucumber flavor, sweetness clearly plays well with. Disposal is determined by the tonic water.
Conclusion: A very light and I think quite pleasant, if not characteristic representative of the gin world.

In this sense: Time for Tea!

Driver Pinnacle 150e/55e Windows 7

Sailor Jerry

follows promised, now is my personal estimate on the basis of the Blog Battles - for Sailor Jerry Spiced Caribbean Rum


The circumstances were already partly for me to read , but even when the rest of participants and of course in Mixology Blog .

For this reason, I put a historical summary or detailed backgrounds save the rum and the very excellent article by Sascha on cocktails Old Fashioned point.
I would be interested or which country or countries from which rum is the Rumblend. I found no official information, BarFish lists as its home country of Venezuela. Does anyone know more?



Sailor Jerry Spiced Rum Caribbean

Appearance: Deep amber to hazel. Light streaks, light reflections.

Smell: proposes initially forward to a discreet alcoholic sharpness, then follow new wood with clear vanilla, unfortunately, a little too intrusive.
Over time, you feel even more caramel and citrus fruits.
Someone could call the candy-like smell and ...

Taste: tingling on the tongue to water-based, wood on the palate with vanilla. In the finish begin to wine and toasted, nutty flavor perhaps in the direction of chocolates.

Conclusion: I'm quite honest - the distillate odor is interesting but takes a slightly artificial feel. This is contradicted in taste, although this is quite small, drunk with ice from the dryer still disappear more flavors. "Mild" would be a positive description. ;-)
In defense, it should be said that he compared to the Captain Morgan Spiced Rum worlds better cuts.

further information: Filler: Sailor Jerry Rum; Type: Spiced Rum, Alcohol content: 40% by volume; Approximate price: 23 € (0.7l)

remains the crucial question: What to do with this rather mediocre rum, if not just cocktails are to be created?

The niche in the classic bar or tiki drinks in me seems to be very small for Spiced Rum.
A look at the Sailor Jerry brand is interesting, however. Behind this fact, especially in the U.S., a considerable merchandising apparatus , the rum would advance in this respect on the scene drink - rum, the only taste slightly of rum and its alcoholic strength mild Hence it is paired with a trendy image, which will more?
The current action around BCB with an emphasis on Blogger is here to better market only logical.
