Kennefick, Lani [American, 1961- ]

[ Biography | 21st Century Artists | Anthroposophical Artists ]

Lani (rhymes with rainy) Kennefick February 14, 1961–

After graduating from the Rhode Island School of Design in 1983, Lani Kennefick embarked on the much romanticized life of an artist on the lower east side of Manhattan during the 1980’s. It was a hectic and vibrant time when, along side her painting practice, she began what was to become a life long study of the occult. Years later, after raising her daughter as a single parent, she went back to NY to receive her Masters Degree in painting. It was during this time she began painting the “Small Animal” series. Inspired visually by Asian art, the subject matter remained in the realm of the occult, and is especially rooted in Anthroposophy.

In light of her Anthroposphical studies and her experience in graduate school, Lani is creating a curriculum exploring the role of Spirit in art, with the hope of some day sharing it with other artists. Currently living and working in Brooklyn, NY she is involved in the NYC branch of the Anthroposphical Society, and is scheduled to show in the society's Centerpoint Gallery in September of 2014. More information and images are available at lanikennefick.com. Paintings and Giclee prints are for sale on the website as well.

Incident at Long Island Festival

At least one woman is seriously injured after a Humvee plowed into a crowd at a Long Island Food Festival. The incident took place on September 23rd, 2017, when a display vehicle slipped a gear and ran into a group of people who had gathered at the Long Island Bacon Bash. The full extent of injuries is not yet known.

A full investigation will have to take place, but initial reports are attempting to frame the situation as entirely accidental. Though it is possible that there was no user error involved and that the vehicle simply had a malfunction, it seems more likely that the Humvee was not properly shifted into park, or that one of the attendees of the festival moved the gear shift.

In many jurisdictions, there are only light regulations regarding these types of civic gatherings. But whenever large machines are involved, even for decoration, safety must be the first priority. Whoever was in charge of the Humvee should have taken extra precautions, including placing barriers in front of the tires, to assure that it wouldn’t roll even if the transmission slipped. And the Humvee should have been monitored to make sure that kids or others didn’t fool around with the transmission.

Organizers of these events must take safety seriously. Even one injury or accident is too many if it was caused by negligence. Determining the extent of liability, and whether the organizers or the owners of the property were responsible, can be extremely difficult. Still, it is important that questions get asked and safety is prioritized in the future.

If you or someone you love has attended a festival, sporting event, or other public gatherings, and you were injured because proper safety protocols were not developed or implemented, it is important that you hold the organizers responsible. Please contact an experienced attorney who can help you make your case.

Bush Stank Contaminates Pickles

Heh. AnotherPew Poll:

Laura Bush, once almost universally liked, has seen her favorability ratings slip along with her husband’s over the past three years. Currently, a slim majority of Americans (54%) say they have a favorable impression of the First Lady, down from 70% in August of 2004. The number saying they have an unfavorable view of Laura Bush has risen from 18% to 29% over the same time period.

While trending downward, views of Laura Bush have changed less dramatically than have views of her husband over the past five years. The poll, conducted Dec. 19-30 among 1,430 adults nationwide, finds Laura Bush’s favorability rating has fallen by 16 points since August 2004; by contrast, George W. Bush’s favorability has declined by 25 points over the same period (from 58% to 33%).

14 thoughts on “Bush Stank Contaminates Pickles

  1. pansypoo says:

    well, she never rose to the goodhousekeeping’s most admired woman, which normally went to the 1st lady. hillary ratained that. tho i don’t think hillary was #1, lauWa was #3.

  2. MapleStreet says:

    I’m surprised that Laura didn’t get the award just from the fact that Barbara Bush is daughter of Marvin Pierce, who was president of McCall’s Corporation (publisher of McCall and Redbook).
    You’d think the insider vote would be enough to push her over the top.

  3. Billy B says:

    I cribbed your column overhere, Master Caulfield.

  4. GTFOH! says:

    Why does she even have ‘ratings’? For what? My tax dollars better not be paying for any of this shyt!
    To this day I cannnot look her directly in the eye, I have to turn my head slightly and squint down.

  5. Mark VZ says:

    She’s always come across to me as a stepford wife. Better keep her out of the rain or she might rust.

  6. oldgringo says:

    All Bush loosers are getting whacked,some more than others, but there really is NO GLORY IN WHUPPIN’UP on a “lady” who is stuck with the mess SHE is stuck with…
    and a little MERCY never hurts!

  7. oldgringo – she’s only as stuck as a phone call to her lawyer. And, SHE opted for this. And SHE hasn’t made any moves to counteract anything her worthless closet-case of a husband has done. Not even spoken out. She could have left him at ANY time unless Bar and Poppy have warned her for her ‘safety’…in which case, she’s a hostage and unless she is declared an enemy combatant, that’s illegal…STILL.
    To Laura, I paraphrase from “Animal House” – “Stoned, Numb and Vapid are no way to go through life, Laura!”
    And while I’m at it – learn to dress for your body type lady – belted prom dresses in iridescent taffeta are NOT your look. Baby shit brown, NOT your look. Vampira’s Tomb lipstick is NOT your look. Xanaxed to the hilt is NOT…oh wait, that IS your look!

  8. Athenae says:

    I think after a while, people start saying to themselves, “Why doesn’t she speak up? Why doesn’t she convince him to do otherwise?” Especially on his SCHIP veto, things like that, where you really WANT the First Lady front and center advocating for children’s interests, and she’s … absent.
    I never had much of an opinion about her, but I think the difference between her and Hillary as First Lady was that whatever people felt Hillary had to put up with from Bill, they could also clearly see that she and her husband agreed on the things that mattered, which to a lot of people, especially married people, spoke volumes.

  9. And don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t be snarking on her clothes if she actually did ANYTHING remotely reminiscent of Eleanor Roosevelt, but since she hasn’t, I will whale away at the mess that is the current occupier of the role of First Spouse. And since he was appointed ‘pResident’ I consider her the “Foist(ed on us) Lady”.

  10. Wage Slave says:

    You have to give Laura Bush some credit for putting up with a horse’s ass.

  11. no, I sure don’t have to give her anything. She has been party to the wasting of our tax monies and young lives in a war for profit. She knew the ‘company’ she was going to be a part of when she took the pill to be her ‘awfully’ wedded husband. she may not like it now, but w/all the meds she can afford, she doesn’t have to think about it if she doesn’t want to.

  12. pansypoo says:

    she’s a tpical republikkkan bitch. she is his mommy.
    and georgie doesn’t listen to anybody. as somebody reminded me.

  13. Blynn says:

    While it might be unfair to criticize someone for her husband’s actions, even his atrocities, I have no hesitation in calling her out for the things she has said and done publicly. A few months ago she was on Larry King (hey! I was playing a video game and couldn’t step away to change the channel) and said two really dumb things. The first was that everything’s just peachy in Iraq except for “that one bombing everyday”. The second was about “this great economy”, when everyone in the real estate business has known for over a year that the house of cards was coming down. That puts her in the category of brainless, right-wing pundit, even if she doesn’t have fake blonde hair and an Adam’s apple that really makes you wonder. Also, remember, Laura is the only Bush besides Poppy who knows the pleasure of killing someone with your own hands, instead of ordering someone else to do it and jerking off to the video.

  14. E. Smith says:

    Well, she’s unspeakably evil for propping up that throwback to the bronze age, Lunkhead McPretzel, but I’m sorry, she’s a rather hot-lookin’ old coug…
    That whole prissy, demure, pent-up repressed schoolmarm thing…

Go practice resurrection

Easter turns the world upside down. It defies our expectations with hiddenness and bluntness: Mary does not recognize the resurrected Jesus (John 20:14), the good news is heralded by an earthquake and terrifying angels and is brought to the women of the church first, rather than to the Twelve (Matt. 28:1-10)….READ MORE

Losing A Loved One to Suicide: Families Speak Out

“Families need to create a space to talk about mental health and suicide, and perhaps save a life.”

Mind It
2 min read

Video Editor: Kunal Mehra

(Every year, World Suicide Prevention Day is observed 10 September to raise awareness on suicide and suicide prevention. We are republishing this video we made for World Suicide Prevention Day 2019 to highlight the effect of suicide on families and loved ones.)

(If you feel suicidal or know someone in distress, please reach out to them with kindness and call these numbers of local emergency services, helplines, and mental health NGOs)

Losing a loved one to suicide is a pain like no other. There's confusion, regret, heartbreak and usually, no closure. How do families cope once you’re gone? How can families best equip themselves to recognise the signs of depression and save lives?

The Families Left Behind

Through the stories of Raashi Thakran, who lost her brother earlier this year, Nyana Sabharwal, who lost her mother when she was 13, Shweta Mittal, who lost her maternal uncle, or Niraj Doshi who almost lost his life, watch how suicide impacts the lives of those around you.

Suicide, a subject so twisted with loneliness, depression, and shame, is finally coming out of the shadows. As a community, we’re beginning to look at mental health squarely in the eyes through an increasingly progressive discourse.

Families, friends, colleagues, co-workers, and the entire community needs to build a supportive, safe space to help people with suicidal tenancies.

Besides, Nyana advises, “It’s extremely difficult when you are vulnerable to reach out yourself for help. The community, your family, and friends must step in.”

One of the toughest moments for Raashi was when heartbroken and confused, she dove into suicide research in India only to find there is no national helpline. She then started a petition on Change.org asking Dr Harsh Vardhan and the ministry of health and family welfare to launch a national helpline number for suicide prevention in India in 2019. A year later, India launched its first-ever national mental health helpline called Kiran on 7 September 2020.

The helpline number is (1800-599-0019).

2019 Events:

Andrew Graves – author of Welcome to the Cheap Seats: silver screen portrayals of the British working classAn illustrated talk with a strong Nottingham interest.

Anamik Saha – author of Race and the Cultural Industries – talks on Race, Media and Social Justice.  The question of media’s representation of racial and ethnic minorities – especially in popular culture – can appear trivial for some anti-racists/Leftists. Drawing from his book Race and the Cultural Industries Anamik Saha argues that how media treats minorities is a matter of social justice. In doing so he provides a critique of ‘diversity’, which dominates current media and cultural policy agendas.

David Bell – author of Reds, Rebels and Radicals of Derbyshire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire. An introduction to, reminder of, and celebration of our local heroes.

Ra Page: editor of Resist: stories of uprising, with Steve Chambers and Karline Smith reading and discussing their contributions on the Battle of Cable Street and the Notting Hill Riots of 1958.

Tim Gee – author of Why I Am a Pacifist. Pacifism isn’t about being passive. Quaker activist Tim Gee shares why.

Tim Gee said: “We are seeing some of the catastrophic effects of climate change already. In such light the resources governments currently spent on preparing for war would be best used on  on humanitarian relief efforts to assist those worst affected. More broadly, a domestic transition away from fossil fuels would without doubt make the world a safer place, as such measures would change the current pattern of wars for oil and limit climate breakdown. We cannot miss that current tensions between Iran and Saudi Arabia Centre on oil”  Since September Gee has been speaking in churches, bookshops and community halls, combining personal testimony from his work as a campaigner with reflections from research into his new book ‘Why I am a Pacifist’.

Janine Booth – author of Minnie Lansbury: suffragette, socialist, rebel councillor – this event is organised by Notts and Derby Labour History Society

Rebar ends up expanding and breaking the concrete because it doesn’t have enough cover, so they just put a box around it and pour a bunch more.

  • Not exactly practical. Fine for ponds but if the tide is going out, so are you. Can barely steer, hardly moves under power. There is a reason amphibious vehicles have secondary drive systems and (usually) a rudder. Nice stunt, good photo op, waste of time and money. You'd be screwed if there weren't other helpful boaters around. I can see you putting it in at high tide and never hearing from you again.

A Mom’s Day in the Life at an Online Data Science Bootcamp

You’re closer than you think to a career in tech. Our grads have launched rewarding new careers — you can too.

View Our Jobs Report

When you think of going to school, it’s fairly easy to picture your daily schedule: classes, a lunch break, more classes and lectures. But what happens when you choose to study online? When the four walls of the classroom become the four walls of your living room or local coffee shop, where do you find the balance between learning and living?

We asked a few of our online students, including Giovanna, learning online in New Jersey, to share how she makes her part-time online data science schedule work around her life as a mom, and vice versa. In our part-time program, students can expect to spend 25-30 hours per week on lessons, labs and studying. See how Giovanna makes it work:

Giovanna’s Daily Schedule

5:20am - 6:00am: I wake up, make coffee, and then prepare breakfast and lunchboxes for my kids.

6:00am - 7:00am: After that, I workout at Crossfit. I typically only go on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays.

7:30am - 8:30am: Following my morning exercise, I go back home to shower, eat breakfast, and prep my kids for school drop off.

9:00am - 12:00pm: For most of the morning, I study, attend Flatiron School’s organized study hours, and meet one-on-one with either instructional staff or my educational coach over Zoom.

12:00pm - 2:30pm: After spending most of the morning studying, I typically take a lunch break, see friends, run errands at the grocery store or post office. Sometimes I catch up on laundry or decide to go back to studying and watching tutorials.

2:30pm - 5:00pm: Mid-afternoon, I pick up my kids from school and drive them to their after-school activities, the playground, or sit with them while they do their homework.

5:00pm - 7:00pm: If it’s a Flatiron School study group night (Tuesdays or Thursdays), my kids eat dinner with my husband while I attend class. I’ll eat a quick dinner beforehand before I log on at 6pm. If it’s not, we eat together as a family.

7:00pm - 9:00pm: After study group or dinner, we then do the dishes, put the kids to bed and read with them, and then I read in my bed until it’s lights out.

Scuppers are effective drainage systems on Flat Roofs

This video shows how we made a channel/ scupper into a gutter from a flat roof

Scuppers are the most efficient means of removing water from flat roofs – living in Fairfield County, Westport, Greenwich, and Stamford, we get our fair share of rain. It is important to make sure that drains are well-positioned and function properly. We do all kinds of flat roof repairs that include scuppers, drains, and gutters.

Our expertise comes from fixing other roofers’ jobs. So often we will see a new roof installed but the technique is not what it suppose to be. The common problem most roofers have with installing roofs is making a transition to flashing. That’s where most roofs fail. Almost everyone can lay down a rubber roof on a flat surface, but when they have to tie it to metal edging or flashing, then everyone has different ideas.

Flat Roof over Entrance to a Commercial Building – Scuppers Installed

Flat Roof Repairs – The water used to flow over the edges unto the stairs. This made the stairs very slippery during winter. We installed a rubber roof over tar and gravel and eliminated the drain. Then we installed a scupper instead and water was draining off the flat roof.

There was a pump installed on the roof to get rid of the water. Funny. When designing a roof the most important aspect is to make it maintenance-free. Drains are always the opposite. Someone installed a pump to drain the water from the roof. Drains get clogged and to maintain them is costly.

On this building we illuminated the drain and installed scupper
Flat roof repair - Scuppers on flat roofs - Someone installed a pump to drain the water from roof. After installing a roof we added scuppers
This was the situation where even the drain wasn’t working

Instead of a drain, we decided to install a roof scuppers on each side of the roof. This way water could always run off into the flower bed beneath. No more drain clogging. This shows where the water would fall into the roof. Draining water off a roof has to be away from walkways and entrances.

We installed a rubber roof over the stone and created scuppers.

We pointed the scupper towards the planter
Flat roof repair - The drain was eliminated and scuppers were installed that drained into the planter.
This is the final look after we installed a new roof and scupper

This is what the scuppers look like on a roof. They can vary in sizes but for a small roof like this, it was not necessary to make big scuppers. A closeup look of the scupper. This is a very inexpensive way to drain water off a roof.

A Handy Guide For Picking The Ideal Wine

How much do you know about wine? Do you want to learn more? Perhaps you’d just like to look a little more knowledgeable around the wine connoisseurs that you know. Maybe you’re making your favorite dish. The following information can prepare you well with wine.

The best way to enjoy wine is responsibly. Know your limits and ensure that you don’t overdo it, especially when with guests. While some wine with lunch or dinner is always in good taste, becoming sloppy afterwards due to drunkenness is not. Enjoyed in moderation, wine will be your friend for life.

If you are new to wine tasting, you should know that true connoisseurs actually spit the wine after tasting it. Spitting the wine is the best way to avoid overpowering your taste buds so you can keep tasting other wines. Take a small sip of wine, wait a few seconds to feel all its different flavors and spit it.

Wine tastings are great to attend. Explore and try wines that are different from what you usually enjoy. You can even make it a social event. Have your wine loving friends come along. This can help engage great conversation with the people that you love.

If you enjoy cooking, try incorporating wine into your dinner menu. Wine can be used in a variety of cooking formats including sauces and marinades. If you have small children, you need not be concerned about cooking with wine as most of the alcohol is cooked out during the cooking process.

If you plan to learn about and collect wines, invest in proper storage. Wine is best when kept in a cooler, more humid environment. Many people prefer to build out a basement or cellar for storing wine. However, if your needs are smaller, there are many options for in-home storage on the market.

All wines do not taste good while at the same temperature. White wines are better when they are cold, while red wines should be a little below room temperature. Drinking them at the wrong temperature can change the way they are supposed to take, which may change your overall opinion.

Keep a wine journal. Write down the names of wines that you taste and what you think of them. Over time, this will develop into a great resource for you. It is also nice to look back and see where you came from and what direction you are headed in when it comes to your wine preferences.

If you find that you really prefer less expensive wine, don’t be afraid to buy it. Recommendations will come thick and fast regarding wineries and regions, but it really is down to what you like. Even if you like cheap wine, stick with it. The point is to do what makes you happy, not what someone else says is best.

Now you can see all the places it may take you if you have more wine knowledge. It can be advantageous in many social situations to be knowledgeable about wine. You’ll now be able to wow your friends and family with your new found knowledge.

coffee selection guide: how to choose what coffee to buy

This is a mini-guide on how I choose what coffee roasts to try and what specific things I look for when purchasing coffee.

There are thousands of choices when it comes to choosing coffee beans. When starting to brew at home, it’s most important to play around with a bunch of different variables and in the end see what you prefer. This can get expensive so keep reading for my recommendations to save you guys some money!!

Related: What to look for when choosing a coffee shop

A mini preface: I am in no way calling myself an expert as this is my personal list of things I look for. I tried to make this guide as broad as I could so that coffee brewers of all levels and styles could find this helpful! I have a bunch of other helpful coffee guides over here.

The bulk of this guide is split between what to look for when choosing the roaster & then the beans themselves – two very important components. But ultimately choosing the best coffee is very subjective and it all comes down to your preferences.

Hopefully this mini-guide will help you become more aware of little tricks to point you towards the best quality coffee possible!

okay, let’s get into this list.

The Roaster

The credibility of the roaster would be the first thing I look at: whether I’ve heard of them before (and if it was in a positive light), the branding and the reviews.

The quality of the roaster is even more important. If you’re buying coffee in-person look for all the specifications on the bag. Good roasters will specify the technique they used while roasting.

Look for any specifications of the kind of roast (light, medium, dark), the origin, flavor profile, etc. More detail on the bag can almost guarantee that the roaster really knows what they’re doing, which then ensures better quality.

Look for the roast date, as coffee does not last forever; over time the beans will completely loose their flavor (I know from experience). If the roast date is over 4 weeks old don’t even bother spending your money on it; that coffee is almost past their optimal freshness.

Going off that, a huge giveaway to me is if a roaster even offers their coffee whole bean. There’s been multiple occasions where I’ve purchased coffee online but you couldn’t select how your wanted your beans. So, me being me, I just assumed they would be whole beans; I was very wrong and very let down as it came pre-ground. I had no indication of how long the beans could have already been ground for and also it made it much more difficult for me to get the perfect at home brew with it.

tip of the year: I highly highly highly recommend that when purchasing coffee beans to purchase them whole if you can. It helps ensure optimal flavor for each brew. I just want to make sure you don’t forget it.

So, if the roaster only offers pre-ground coffee, then run. Simple right?

The Beans

There are many variables that dictate the flavor of the beans themselves: on a broader scale, the origin of the beans/wash and roast processes dictate what you taste; on a smaller scale, the notes dictate what you taste.

Country of origin:

I’m going to keep this more user friendly, so I won’t be ranting about all 50+ countries that produce coffee and what each brings to the table. Just note that depending on the origin of the coffee and the wash processes used, it sets the scene for the flavor profile of the beans. Over time you may start to create a mental list of your favorite roasts you’ve tried and what country the beans came from. It’s another piece to the puzzle 🙂

but when looking at the top coffee producing regions, typically

Central & South American: clean & sweet

Africa: complex & fruity

Asia: luscious & earthy

found here

The kind of roast:

(light, medium, dark, or somewhere in the middle)

light: beans roasted for the shortest amount of time, also light in color.

medium: the most common one you’ll find. roasted longer than a light roast, but shorter than a dark roast – how crazy is that? A lot of your classic “breakfast blends” or random drip coffee you’d find out and about typically are medium roasts.

dark: roasted the longest, normally very dark in color, rich in flavor and usually appear very oily to touch. Italian roasts, French roasts, Viennese roasts, etc. are all common dark roasts.

I typically go after roasts on the medium-dark scale as I love being able to taste bolder flavors, especially since I prefer to drink my coffee black. But even more important than picking the kind of roast, is the notes in that roast.

The flavor notes:

The coffee notes written on a coffee bag are very subjective. It could say chocolate and you taste fruit, or you could be so lost like “how could coffee taste like chocolate or fruit” and call it a day. Either is completely valid.

It took me a long time to really be able to taste anything other than coffee. Regardless, the notes are there to help you.

If you tried a coffee and one of the notes was “nutty” and you absolutely hated it, well when shopping next maybe steer clear of coffee with nutty undertones – it turns into a big process of elimination. Over time you’ able to create a mental list of “okay well I hated that kind of origin or those tasting notes” and realize what speaks to you.

Notes can really help you determine what kind of coffee is your favorite kind of coffee.

Other coffee terms to help you fulfill your caffeine addiction –

Arabica vs. Robusta:

Arabica: sweeter, softer flavors. grown at higher altitudes & seen as the “higher quality” bean.

Robusta: bolder, more bitter flavor. grown at lower altitudes & contain more caffeine.

Almost all of the beans you buy are going to be Arabica, so don’t think too deep into it.

Single origin vs. a blend:

Single origin simply means its from one specific farm, crop, or region in one country. Not always, but a lot of the time single origins are of higher quality. A blend is an assortment of multiple roasts that are paired together in one bag.

Blends for milk, Single origins for black.

Blends are made usually to give a more balanced body and flavor profile that pairs well with milk, like in espresso-based beverages. Single origins are geared more for those who enjoy tasting the subtle differences in the roast, without masking it with milk.

but you do you. coffee is everyone’s friend.

Fair trade:

Some people do prefer to shop fair trade (& go you), so when purchasing coffee take time to look around for that accreditation.

Companies who are apart of the fair trade community mean that they are advocating for the environment and the countries that they get their coffee from. They help to support the source countries to create a sustainable income for smaller family farms and ensuring they then earn enough to make a living. To learn more I found a nice post on it here.

Where to find the best beans

This is great and all, but where could I find some great coffee to purchase from?

1. Start Local -local coffee spots, specialty grocery stores (normal ones usually only have low-quality coffee with a long shelf-life), or farmers markets.

What’s great about purchasing local is you have people to turn to and ask questions to see what they would suggest for you to try!! get a second opinion!!

2. Shop Online – whether you find a roaster that peaks your interest to buy from online (I’ve reviewed some insanely good ones over on my instagram), OR you come across a company that does the hard word for you – both works great.

Coffee Subscription Services

Subscription services are a great way to expose yourself to specialty roasters without having to do any of the searching. When signing up, you put in your roast and grind preferences (cough, whole bean) and you’re all set! Easy peezy, you get great coffee straight to your door.

I’ve tried a handful out over the last couple months, some were gifted & some I paid for, but I’m here to only mention the ones that are worth your hard earned money.

Honey & Roses Coffee Company:

Honey & Roses Coffee Company is a coffee marketplace which sells coffee from quality roasters all across the US! They offer a normal and a premium coffee subscription (both under $20). You can choose how often you want the coffee delivered – anywhere from 2 weeks onwards.

Honey & Roses is great because even if you don’t want to commit to a subscription of any kind, they are a coffee marketplace as well! They hand pick what roasters are on their site – so you already know they are going to be high quality. Their website also is set up so you can search coffee by notes, regions, etc.

I do have coupon codes to offer you! I don’t receive anything from these. They are just meant to help you out.

“Coffeeenut” for $5 off their adorable travel mugs & “nutsforcoffee” for 10% off coffee orders over $25

Related: An interview with the co-founder of Honey & Roses Coffee

Bean Box Coffee:

Bean Box Coffee is a subscription service that highlights roasters in the Seattle area. Their traditional subscription box (they’re currently having a deal here for $16.50) comes with four 2oz. sample packs. Also, I’ve noticed they always seem to have deals or coupons over on their instagram so keep an eye on that!

They make the idea of getting sample packs even more fun; if you get one that you really love you can use the code on the bag to then go on their website and order more of that specific batch!

I really love how they highlight a lot of smaller, less-known roasters too.

Atlas Coffee Club:

Atlas Coffee Club is great not only for their adorable aesthetic, but each month they highlight a single country of origin. In the box they include a postcard and also brewing tips to ensure you brew the best cup.

When placing your order you can choose the frequency of shipment, roast preferences and what size bag you want. I believe right now they’re having an insane deal for fathers day… I thought I saw it was only $4 for the first month!!!

Let’s Recap!

I know this is a lot of information but make sure to remember these key points.

  1. when looking for a good quality, specialty roaster check their: branding, accreditations, reviews, but most importantly – what they make a note of on their coffee bags
  2. so, take the extra minute or so to read the information on the coffee bag – you can tell a lot from it without even having to brew it!
  3. if you’re able to, buy whole bean.
  4. over time you will develop a taste for what regions or notes of coffee you enjoy the most! I’m all about having a good coffee tasting!
  5. if you want someone else to do the searching for you, OR you just want great exposure to specialty roasters – try one of the subscription services I mentioned!

If there’s a specific question you have that I didn’t answer here please don’t hesitate to comment or reach out!! I have a couple more coffee tips/guide posts planned for the near future – for questions I got over on my instagram that I felt didn’t fit the topic of this post.

  1. FYI, I always travel with my Peet’s French roast, and filters. But I really enjoy trying the coffee is other countries, with some surprises. In Laos, the coffee vendor made our coffee by filtering it through a big tube sock! Each place seems to have their own ritual, which is equally enjoyable.

  2. Personally I’m more of a tea drinker but this is a very informative list! I will have to check out a few of these for a few of my friends. They like coffee and would probably love some of these as gifts 🙂

Post Family Pledges $50K to the Naval Aviation Museum Foundation
The Floridant/10103798

Engel & Volkers Naval Aviation
PENSACOLA, Fla. - Floridant -- Pensacola, Fla. – The Naval Aviation Museum Foundation is pleased to announce a charitable contribution in the amount of $50K from donors Valerie and Larry Post to support the National Naval Aviation Museum. Valerie is the Co-Owner at Engel & Völkers / Meridian Realty Group and The Point Restaurant and Bar. Larry, a former Naval Aviator, is the CEO of Post Hospitality Group (PHG).

Larry and his wife, Valerie, participate in a number of non-profit boards, including the Naval Aviation Museum Foundation.

"Support from the Post family makes it possible for the Museum to expand its teachings of Naval Aviation history," said retired Marine Lt. Gen. Duane Thiessen, president of the Naval Aviation Museum Foundation. "This gift helps tell the story of our past and provides a pathway to our future by bringing the accomplishments of Naval Aviators to life, inspiring the next generation."

About the Naval Aviation Museum Foundation

The Naval Aviation Museum Foundation is the sole benefactor to the National Naval Aviation Museum—and the fuel that allows the museum to take flight. The Foundation is responsible for funding all museum operation, expansion and activity. The Foundation works diligently to raise funding through gifts and memberships. All funding, aside from Foundation staffing and operational costs, goes to the operation, maintenance and enhancement of the museum, including museum expansion, aircraft preservation, conservation and maintenance, development of new exhibits and support of day to day functions—including custodial services, marketing, operation of the Museum's various attractions (such as our Naval Aviation Memorial Giant Screen Theater, flight simulators, Blue Angels 4D Experience and Flight Deck gift shop), as well as the production of major events at the Museum. The Foundation also supports the advancement of STEM education through the National Flight Academy, a cutting edge, aviation-themed learning experience.

In personalisation, brand control starts with a careful evaluation of how a certain brand is certainly viewed by consumer available, progresses to identifying the way the brand will be seen, therefore progresses to planning and ensuring that the label is perceived properly and finally adopts securing its goals and ensuring that the designs are seen as designed. It is essential that branding advertisments are good for advertising purposes, at terms of gaining the best positioning to get a product or service and in addition for manufacturer development.

Brand management needs a careful examination of what people inside your target market wish and are willing to pay for. This needs to have account of both the product's brand graphic and the people who would almost certainly make a purchase. The best brands are not automatically the most expensive kinds, and the least expensive products are generally not necessarily the very best brands. Additionally it is important to consider the brand personal information of the buyer and the product itself. Logos is also more about the buyer than the item itself; a firm with a superb brand name, which in turn appeals to customers, tends to flourish with regards to sales.

For instance , if a particular company has a low profit margin, it would be hard to justify promoting that brand to a target market that may make an enormous profit. Logos involves organizing the marketing campaign, ensuring that the target market is aware of the existence of the brand and buying behaviour. Some consumers are very likely to buy from a brandname they recognise than to obtain a brand which has no recognisable recognition. Sometimes, the brand that works well to get the target marketplace may not work for another group.

Planning for the promoting of your manufacturer, whether it is with respect to direct offering mass marketing or perhaps brand managing, involves gathering information from the target market and next considering the brand, its rewards and disadvantages. It is important that the firm you choose is definitely both visible to people and has a advanced of acceptance with the consumer. The brand has to be relevant to people, rather than simply being irrelevant.

A further part of brand management is planning your marketing to get to the target marketplace. Although the finest brand for that product is not at all times the most expensive you, it does signify you can afford to spend far more on promoting and special offers than you would definitely without the benefits of branding. The best manufacturer promotion strategy can save your company money as it can be designed to reach people who find themselves already interested inside your product or service. It can also encourage reiterate customers.

If you are planning your marketing correctly, then you certainly will be able to focus on the most likely consumers who would be many interested in your products and services. Personalisation helps you understand these kinds of consumers. The more you know about your target market the easier it is to get the message across to them, thereby increasing your chances of being seen by them. It is necessary to understand and be mindful of any potential negative effects the item or services you are providing might have upon potential customers, and as a consequence how you can avoid these effects when you method your promo.

Effective manufacturer management likewise calls for working with other parties to make sure that your manufacturer achieves their goals. You may want to consult industry professionals, such as promoters, to help system the marketing of your item and services on your market.

Marketing and branding need a balance amongst the goals of the trademark and the costs of marketing and advertising and specials. Many marketing firms offer a free consultation and advise on the best way to market your brand. A large number of firms include expert clubs of marketing gurus who assist you to design, develop and implement an organized marketing strategy to obtain your goals and help you manage your budget and expenses properly.
