A friend asked me for some beers to try and I thought others could use the info. He likes cigars so some of this advice is based on that.

First resource is the show notes from the Podcast Jim and I did a few years back: http://yournextbeer.wordpress.com/

The audio isn't online, but, you can read the reviews. A list of 115 isn't much of a list. So here are some general thoughts.

Session vs. Big
First thing is to decide how you are drinking, one beer or six. You need different kind of beers for different purposes. If you you want one nice beer with a cigar look for beers labeled double, tripple or
imperial. If you want a few, stick with something lighter.

Malty vs. Hoppy
Hops are the bitter, malty is the bread like taste. I'm not a huge malt guy but it has it's place. Belgians tend to be rather malty so I avoid them. IPA's are the top of hop spectrum usually. Once you get hoppy enough they tend to get a little grapefruit taste as well, which can be quite nice. Hoppy beers are great with spicy food.

A few styles to try:

  • Barley Wine. Almost like port, sweet alcoholic and all malt, unless it's been aged in barrels then it can get interesting.
  • Amber or Double/Imperial Amber. A good hop/malt  balance usually you can drink ambers all night an imperial is usually going to be on the hoppier side.
  • Porter (esp. Smoked). One of my favorite styles similar to a stout but less creamy and the smoked varieties would be perfect with a cigar
  • Saison/Farm house/Bier de Garde. All slightly different, but all light, highly carbonated and refreshing. A cigar would kill these beers, but perfect or an afternoon out on the deck or with first course/appetizers

Some breweries to look out for:

  • Stone. I like everything they do, their Smoked Porter should be a first stop
  • Green Flash. Their West Coast IPA is my favorite and Le Freak is perhaps my favorite beer right now.
  • Firestone Walker. Haven't had much as they don't distribute out East but have a great reputation
  • Shiner. Obviously you know about Shiner Bock but their "Family" mixed case is usually a good value. Their Light is the best Light I've had and perfect for BBQ's or cooking with. Their Hefeweisen is also very good.

That should get just about anyone started. If your wondering what your next beer should be, leave a comment.

If you are part of Steeler's nation then you are either shocked or not surpised at all to find out that Harrison was suspended.

If you haven't seen the hit, you probably don't care to, but there is video in the link above.It clearly shows Harrison droping his helment before contact. The hit has going to be hard, and likley draw a personal foul, but he didn't have to lower the crown of his helmet. He didn't even attempt to wrap up. It is a picture perfect hit for the NFL to make an example of.

The debate about whether that should be legal or not is pointless. The NFL has made it clear: helmet to helmet hits with intent are no longer part of football. You can call it changing the game if you want, but consider it changed.

This is the first suspesion for a hit, which had to happen at some point. Even hefty fines aren't as much as game checks and what almost every NFL player truly values is playing the game. Beyond that, teams don't care if their players get fined so they have no inscentive to coach away from these kinds of hits.

The fact that its a Steeler is no surprise to me. They have been so unrepentant individual and as a group about the changes to the rules in the NFL, it had to be them. They exemplify what the leage office is trying to take out of football.

As a fan, I'm not happy, but the Steelers brought this upon themselves. I also wouldn't have it any other way. I want the team to play the brand of football that is their identify until it is clear that it is hurting their chances of winning. 

In the end I think the suspension is fair because it sends a very clear message. There is no ambiguity now that this has been done. Hit a QB in the head with intent, you're out for a game.

It is also imaginable that Wal-Mart could set up in-store payment kiosks away from the registers with the Square Register. It could just be a little booth in every department of a Wal-Mart that would be designed to handle payments for a couple of items.

The big win here is for the little guy. With millions of transactions running from Wal-Mart, Square should be able to lower transaction fees for everyone.

Of course they may pocket the difference and not lower the little guys fees, but a stable giving platform is still good for the little guys.

Earlier this fall I was with a good number of college friends in Newport, RI. Andy is stationed there with the Navy Supply School. Since none of us had been there before, we decided it was a good spot for what has become our yearly get together.

When predictions of Irene's path become clear, the question was: "what do we do?" We all had tickets to come in on Thursday night so we knew there would be no trouble getting in, but the track made getting out on Sunday evening dubious.

We decided that even in the worst case scenario we could drive our rental car out on Monday if we needed to and it would be an adventure.

The storm tracked a bit further West and weakened more than expected so the actual storm itself wasn't much more than an impressively windy rain storm. The rain had largely stopped by 3pm on Sunday. The only lasting effect of the storm for us was the power outage that effected almost all of Rhode Island.

I should pause here to acknowledge that the "hardships" I'm about to describe are nothing compared to the loss of life, livelihood and treasure that others experienced. I am very aware of this reality, and my thoughts and prayers remain with those who's lives were deeply affected.

We lost power at around 10:00 am Sunday morning. Most of us were up early as the wind whipped Andy's fourth floor apartment. Unlike the day before when a thick fog set in that prevented us from seeing the harbor only two blocks away, but by the early morning hours of Sunday that fog had blown out and we could clearly see boats bobbing and swaying in the medium chop.

From our perspective no water had risen out of the harbor, but we understood that over on the other side of the island the morning high tide had overtaken Ocean Avenue.

We turned on the local news to see the circus we knew it would be and were not disappointed. A screen cast of a web browser served to give a real time report of the situation on Block Island and a reporter received numerous chat requests as she tried to show pictures of damaged posted to the station's Facebook page.

I was pleased to see she was using Firefox.

It was reported that 80,000 homes in Rhode Island were already without power and we thought we were safe. I had assumed that we would wake up to find we were without power. But just as the storm began to slow the power flickered once then 1/2 an hour later was gone for good.

We had the time to cook and largely clean up breakfast but the fridge still held our lunch and dinner including mussels and shrimp for pasta that evening. We had considered that Andy's gas range would allow us to cook up some pasta, but we didn't consider less perishable proteins to go on our spaghetti.

All morning people were out on Thames Street. If you don't know Newport, think of the commercial street closest to the water in your favorite beach town. It's lined with overpriced shops, bars and restaurant. Most had boarded up Saturday - I think as much to deter the odd looter as anything.

As the rain stopped, Jim and Matt wanted to go out and see what was what, but the high winds made Andy, George and I a bit leery. Then began the first of our planned indoor, non-power necessary activities: cards. Andy, George and I started with cut-throat Euchre. An evil variant where two people team up on the third. If Euchre is Pinochle for dummies, cut-throat is Euchre for sadists.

Once they got back Matt needed a shower - the only one to take advantage of that luxury on Sunday. It is important to note that here as you will read later.

Now with all five of us together we had to find the right game. Matt's brain isn't wired for cards so choices are limited. Andy introduced us to a game called Cucumber. If you have played the drinking game Asshole it's like that in reverse but with Hearts like scoring and variable hand sizes. It was good fun for everyone except for Jim who seemed to be getting no luck in the cards.

Of course we all assumed it was because he was no good at the game, but we are an arrogant lot.

After our first game it was time to enter the refrigerator for lunch and beer. In military terms this was an all hands movement to extract all the items in minimal time to assure that thermal integrity was maintained. With two people grabbing all they could and two others on each door of the fridge we were able to extract a cooler full of beer, club soda for Matt's warm Vodka cocktails and the pizza leftover from two nights before as well as a quart tub of French Onion dip. The Dip was an unintended consequence.

The adult beverages made the second round of Cucumber seem to go much more quickly, but I was playing well so that is also a factor. There is nothing better than being able to play a hand of cards exactly as you imagined. Since I don't play chess I don't know, but I imagine the feeling is similar to trapping your opponent in a well planned gambit and taking the piece that you have seen in your mind for the past dozen moves.

With Jim loosing badly again it was decided a new game was necessary: corn hole. For those not near the mid-west this will be foreign. Corn hole is played with corn filled bean-bags (a misnomer of course) and two slightly inclined boards placed around twenty-four feet apart. The boards have a single hole cut about 3 inches from the top. The object is to throw a bag into the hole or at least land it on the board.

When you are playing in a more regulation setting, doing this requires mastering the balance of loft and power to get the bag to the board, but not to run it completely off the board's upward slanting surface.

In our modified indoor setting loft isn't as much of an option. Andy's house rules state that a bag that even grazes the ceiling fan results in a forfeit of all points for your team for that round.

I can not tell you how many games of cornhole we played, but I can tell you we played long enough for Matt to take a run. That's correct Matt ran through the remnants of a tropical storm.

This resulted in another shower, his second of the day.

We played long enough for Matt to play even after he got back and to need a second, perhaps unwarranted, trip into the fridge to clear out the rest of the beer.

Clouds started to roll in and the room was getting dark quickly. It was around 6pm and sunset was scheduled for 7:45. We knew he had to get dinner started, because cooking shellfish in the dark is a recipe for disaster.

Andy expertly cooked the shrimp and mussels with garlic and onions and added them to jarred tomato sauce for the best meal of the trip.

As the light faded we ate around a fresh cotton scented candle. Five 30 something men mercilessly making fun of each other, laughing with each other and enjoying each others company without checking cell phones or glancing at the TV or listening to music. This is how meals should be eaten.

From there we wanted to experience a post-hurricane bar lit by generator power Christmas lights and candles. One round of six dollar Bud Lites later and we were back in the darkening confines of Andy's apartment. Sitting beside each other on coaches and sharing secrets like middle school girls while we finished off the last of the beer.

Until around 11:00, tired and pleasantly intoxicated we got ready for bed. If the power had come back on we probably would have stayed up past 2:00 am, but I'm sure we spoke more, listened more, fellowshiped more and learned more laughing by candle light and going to bed early.

On the car ride back to Boston, Matt, George and commented on how powerful it was to have our phones off for most of the day to preserve battery life. Before that there would be stretches of time when all of us would be using our devices to connect with the "world" and in so doing missed the community we were a part of.

It's like yawning. One person in a group checks there phone quickly another takes that as a social cue to do so. Then by the time the third person does the first person is done but sees 1/2 of the group on their phones - and there is always something else to check. Before long fifteen minutes of precious time together has been replaced by unnecessary "connections."

It also forced us into a more productive daily rhythm. We were in bed early because the darkness gave our bodies the cues to being to slow down, hours before we drifted off to sleep, not minutes. Because we went to bed early when the sun woke us we got up. We let God's alarm clock set our clocks and felt better for it.

Don't worry folks I'm not going Amish on you. As soon as we stopped for breakfast at a Duncan Doughnuts I was charging up my phone and George was checking email. I spent the afternoon emailing and calling and working in the electronic world that we all inhabit.

What I am going to do is strictly enforce - on myself - a no phone checking policy when I'm around people. That goes for when Erin goes to the bathroom as well so I'm not caught up in something when she gets back and we start the smart phone yawn process.

I do value what folks share from places and will continue to take and share pictures but if I post the photo of the beer I had two hours ago as opposed to the beer I'm having right now - is your life any worse off?

If I share the fact that I had an amazing, engaging conversation with Josh and Kris earlier in the evening is that less meaningful than checking in with them on Facebook?

I firmly believe that we are not physically, emotionally and spiritually equipped to be as connected as technology allows us. We do ourselves and those around us a disservice when we do not give them our full attention, which is impossible if our faces our lit by the blue-grey glow of an electronic device.

So be on notice, I'm not going to reply right away to your text message or call. If you need me urgently, you may have to go old school and call the restaurant I'm at - which of course you won't know because I haven't checked in.

So that's the cost, what's the benefit? My promise to you that when we are together or on the phone or chatting online that you will have my full attention. If I can't give you that, then I'll say so and I will get back in touch with you when I can.

You deserve that from me because we are both incredible creatures endowed with unspeakable gifts marked with the image of God. We are called to be subject to one another and I promise to be attentive to you. It's the least I can do.

A good post at Bokardo about the Facebook logout button. The site isn't responding so I'm going to quote a good bit of the post.

At the very least, interfaces should not lie. They should not deceive the people who use them into thinking something is true when it actually isn’t.

Apparently, Facebook does not agree. On Sunday Nic Cubrilovic posted some troubling news: Logging out of Facebook is not Enough. Facebook doesn’t actually log you out when you ask it to. They pretend to, but they don’t. Instead, they simply change the status of your logged in session to fool you into thinking you’re logged out.

You don’t see your friends or profile. You don’t view your feed. Even if you try to access your profile pages, Facebook will send you to the login screen. Except that you’re not actually logged out. Every step of the way Facebook knows that it’s you trying to access those pages. You’re not really logged out, but Facebook is tricking you into thinking you are.

So, I’ve designed a more appropriate Facebook logout button…instead of saying “Logout” it now says “Logout (not really)”. This is more accurate and better reflects what’s actually going on.

This is a good example of the difference between a technical user and a non-technical user. For a non-technical user being logged out means not being able to access your stuff without logging back in, this is exactly what Facebook is doing.

To a technical user, logged out means that you no longer know who I am so I'm browsing the site anonymously.

This is an interesting exercise in language. I agree with the conclusion that this is bad for privacy, I think from the perspective of the average user the interface is truthful. 

What say you?

One of the best things about working at Masterworks is that everyone is on the lookout for new ideas, this one came from Milo, our Vice President for Administration.

The Chronicle of Philanthropy wrote about two organizations using Amazon.com's Wish List to highlight items needed for donation.

The Wish List has two built in features that make it perfect for gift in kind.

First, your ministry can select how many of a particular item they need, but donors can buy any quantity of that item. So if you need two dozen packs of socks, a donor can buy six and then future donors see that you only need eighteen more.

Second, you can include a ship-to-address as part of the list setup, so donors don't have to think about where to ship it. And it assures that your donations end up at the right spot.

The ability to be very specific about needs is also helpful. I know many missions struggle with getting gifts in kind that have been so "loved" the ministry can't use them.

Most importantly, this takes a traditionally offline transaction online: lowering costs and likely increasing donor value. Because, we know - say it together now - that donors who give in multiple channels can be worth more than twice as much as donors who give in a single channel.

As opposed to the usual, drop and run gift in kind donation, this method allows the opportunity to close the loop with donors. The donor's name will be on the package from Amazon and in addition to receipting and acknowledging the gift, you can share photos or video of the distribution of the gift in social media or email.

You could go so far as to call out specific product donors by name in your social media stream.

As with many things digital there are lots of possibilities, but the first step is to build a small wish list and share it with a group of committed donors. If it works, widen the circle, rinse and repeat.

Great direct mail advice although I can't agree with #25 and #34.

Mistake 25: writing a package and then surrendering it to an artist.  Lean over the artist’s shoulder all the way.  It’s your package.  And don’t just give verbal instructions.  Make a rough pencil layout.  The artist’s responsibility is to enhance your concept to make the package visually exciting – but only within the framework of your vision for the package.

This makes it seem like artists, left on their own, will always detract from effectiveness. The best work we see is when artist and writers collaborate.

Mistake 34: failing to understand that the only reason you write to $10 and under donors is to motivate them to step up to a higher level.  If you let them stay at $10, your fundraising costs may be embarrassingly high.  So learn all you can about upgrading techniques.

We've found at Masterworks that donors who give you less than around $20 on a first gift never give enough subsequently to make up for it. Perhaps in other areas of direct marketing it's different, but with our clients it is better to stop mailing $10 donors than try to upgrade.
