An Espresso Glossary One of the most common types of questions I see in my inbox goes like this. "What is BAR?" or "What is a vibe pump?" Terminology exists in all things. Camera guys talk about ISO and f stops. Espresso people talk about BAR, shot times, ristrettos, etc etc, and it gets quite confusing for the newbie. Second, this will be online until the full Guide is published, so that people can easily reference some of the more (and less) common terms that they may be otherwise confused by. When the Glossary is published in its final form, there will be photos associated with many of the items; but for now, here it is, naked and fresh! The Espresso Glossary If you read our History Section (coming soon!) But this too, is changing. In the past few years, we've seen an explosion of new machines and technologies available to the home user.

Fashion First we fell in love with the city-ready look of Skora, a new “natural” sneaker brand from Portland, Oregon. Then we fell in love with the shoe itself. Since we received a pair, it is pretty much all we’ve been wearing around town, on the beach or running, to the gym, to work, to yoga. They are super comfortable and light, and they make us feel like we’re floating or walking on clouds. Skora was founded by David Sypiewski, a well-funded entrepreneur and formerly injured runner. Skora’s first two models are based on a last that is shaped like the natural arch, and they have no height drop from heel to toe.

Ten Novels Every Aspiring Writer Should Read TYEE LIST #9: Put down that pen and curl up with these giants. Treat your craft seriously, as does Gabriel García Márquez. Some time ago I published an article about 10 novels that aspiring writers should avoid. It wasn't because they were bad -- most of them are modern classics -- but because their readable styles looked so easy that they might seduce a young writer into imitating them. Other novels deserve reading by writers precisely because they can't be imitated. They can only show us how far a particular technique can be pushed, and it's up to us to understand and adapt that technique to our own work. Here are 10 novels that taught me something about the craft and art of fiction. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 1984, by George Orwell (1949). 9. 10. Again, I'm not suggesting imitating these novels.
