where skin porn and food porn collide
where skin porn and food porn collide
03/23/2005 10:09 AM
It's fun to use google and see what it returns when searching for
'sticky buns' as, well, the imagination is a poor substitute for
reality. When food and skin porn collide it gets fairly ugly pretty
quickly. Sticky buns are likely the source of inspiration for the
Finnish bostonkakku which are served like a pie rather than the
individual buns. One of the guys at work quipped that it is served
this way because you can feed 20 instead of 8 people.
I figured that since I was making dallaspulla that I'd make the
inspiration for texaspulla and bostonkakku so that my test subjects
would know just what they had been missing all these years. :) The
dough is a snap to make even without a mixer and is much easier to
work with than the pulla dough. The only drawback is the time spent
waiting for the dough to rise. With a four-day weekend approaching
where absolutely nothing will be open and we'll likely have crappy
weather given that it's a holiday, what could be better than making a
pan of sticky buns and eating them instead of chocolate eggs? These
are, by far, the best cinnamon rolls I've ever made and my test
subjects consumed them in a shark chum feeding frenzy. Two guys even
asked me for the recipe.
Sticky Buns, a.k.a. caramel rolls or cinnamon rolls
Makes: 12 sticky buns
Time: ~30 minutes prep, 3 hours for dough rising
Source: Cook's Illustrated
This recipe has four components: the dough that is shaped into buns,
the filling that creates the swirl in the shaped buns, the caramel
glaze that bakes in the bottom of the baking dish along with the buns,
and the pecan topping that garnishes the buns once baked. Although the
ingredient list may look long, note that many ingredients are
repeated. Leftover sticky buns can be wrapped in foil or plastic wrap
and refrigerated for up to 3 days, but they should be warmed through
before serving. They reheat quickly in a microwave oven (for 2 buns,
about 2 minutes at 50 percent power works well); they can also be put
into a 325F/175C-degree oven for about 8 minutes.
Dough
-
3 large eggs at room temperature
-
3/4 cup buttermilk (2 dl piima) at room temperature
-
1/4 cup (.5 dl) granulated sugar
-
1 1/4 teaspoons table salt
-
2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast (1 packet sunnuntai dry yeast)
-
4 1/4 cups (10,5 dl) unbleached all-purpose flour, plus additional
for dusting work surface
-
6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted and cooled until warm
-
In bowl of standing mixer, whisk eggs; add buttermilk and whisk to
combine.
-
Whisk in sugar, salt, and yeast.
-
Add about 2 cups (5 dl) flour and butter; stir with wooden spoon or
rubber spatula until evenly moistened and combined.
-
Add all but about 1/4 cup (1/2 dl) remaining flour and knead with
dough hook at low speed 5 minutes.
-
Check consistency of dough (dough should feel soft and moist but
should not be wet and sticky; add more flour, if necessary); knead at
low speed 5 minutes longer (dough should clear sides of bowl but stick
to bottom).
-
Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface; knead by hand
about 1 minute to ensure that dough is uniform (dough should not stick
to work surface during hand kneading; if it does stick, knead in
additional flour 1 tablespoon at a time).
-
Lightly spray large bowl or plastic container with nonstick cooking
spray. Transfer dough to bowl, spray dough lightly with cooking spray,
then cover bowl tightly with plastic wrap.
-
Set in warm, draftfree spot until doubled in volume, 2 to 2 1/2
hours.
Caramel Glaze
-
6 tablespoons or 85g unsalted butter
-
3/4 cup (1,75 dl) light brown sugar, packed
-
3 tablespoons corn syrup, light or dark
-
2 tablespoons heavy cream
-
1 pinch table salt
-
Meanwhile, combine all ingredients for glaze in small saucepan.
-
Cook over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until butter is
melted and mixture is thoroughly combined.
-
Pour mixture into nonstick metal 13- by 9-inch (33cm x 23cm) baking
dish.
-
Using rubber spatula, spread mixture to cover surface of baking
dish.
-
Set baking dish aside.
Cinnamon-Sugar Filling
-
3/4 cup (1,75 dl) light brown sugar, packed
-
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
-
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
-
1 pinch table salt
-
1 tablespoon or 15g unsalted butter, melted
-
Raisins (optional)
-
Combine brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves, and salt in small bowl.
-
Mix with a fork until thoroughly combined, using fingers to break
up sugar lumps.
-
Set aside.
To assemble and bake buns:
-
Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface.
-
Gently shape dough into rough rectangle with long side nearest you.
-
Lightly flour dough and roll to 16-inch x 12-inch (40cm x 30cm)
rectangle.
-
Brush dough with 1 tablespoon melted butter, leaving 1/2-inch
border along top edge; with butter remaining on brush, brush sides of
baking dish.
-
Sprinkle filling mixture over dough, leaving 3/4-inch border along
top edge; smooth filling in even layer with your hand, then gently
press mixture into dough to adhere. Add rasins if you desire.
-
Beginning with long edge nearest you, roll dough into taut
cylinder.
-
Firmly pinch seam to seal and roll cylinder seam-side down.
-
Very gently stretch to cylinder of even diameter and 18-inch (45
cm) length; push ends in to create even thickness.
-
Using a serrated knife and gentle sawing motion, slice cylinder in
half, then slice each half in half again to create evenly sized
quarters.
-
Slice each quarter evenly into thirds, yielding 12 ~1.5 inch (3,75
cm) buns (end pieces may be slightly smaller).
-
Arrange buns cut-side down in prepared baking dish.
-
Cover tightly with plastic wrap and set in warm, draft-free spot
until puffy and pressed against one another, about 1 hour.
-
Meanwhile, adjust oven rack to lowest position, place pizza stone
(if using) on rack, and heat oven to 350F/175C degrees.
-
Place baking pan on pizza stone; bake until golden brown and center
of dough registers about 180F/82C degrees on instant-read thermometer,
25 to 30 minutes.
-
Cool on wire rack 10 minutes; invert onto rimmed baking sheet,
large rectangular platter, or cutting board.
-
With rubber spatula, scrape any glaze remaining in baking pan onto
buns; let cool while making pecan topping.
Pecan Topping
-
3 tablespoons or 50g unsalted butter
-
1/4 cup (.5 dl) light brown sugar, packed
-
3 tablespoons corn syrup, light or dark
-
1 pinch table salt
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla sugar
-
3/4 cup (1,75 dl) pecans or walnuts, toasted in a skillet over
medium heat until fragrant and browned, about 5 minutes, then cooled
and coarsely chopped
-
Combine butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt in small saucepan
and bring to simmer over medium heat, whisking occasionally to
thoroughly combine.
-
Off heat, stir in vanilla and pecans until pecans are evenly
coated.
-
Using soup spoon, pour heaping tablespoon of nuts and topping over
center of each sticky bun.
-
Continue to cool until sticky buns are warm, 15 to 20 minutes.
-
Pull apart or use knife to cut apart sticky buns; serve.

paper: This seems pretty useless, but very cool nonetheless. So a
lot like Ashton Kutcher, really.
Tokyo's Yomiuri Shimbun, Japan’s leading newspaper, has
been printing on the corner of a page a series of black dots, which
are not Japenese characters. These black dots are in a tight, uneven
pattern. From a distance it looks like a woven fabric, and closely it
looks like a snowy TV screen. When this page is fed through a scanner,
the true nature of the image is revealed: it’s software — a
computer data. In this way, the newspaper is sending music files,
video games software, etc., to its 10 million customers.
Here's the Web site of the
company that makes the technology. Some interesting reading
there.
I found this via a neat new blog called hypulp which I found via Metafilter.

just a geek's first newspaper review!
just a geek's first newspaper review!
12/19/2004 03:48 PMOkay, I'll admit it. I have a "Wil Wheaton" as a Google News Alert. I'd say it's an ego
thing . . . but it gets triggered so rarely, that's sort of
counterintuitive. It's actually a business thing, so I can be aware
press and stuff, but I'll be honest: I do get a little thrill when one
hits my inbox.
So about a week ago, I got a news alert because I was very kindly
mentioned in a brief bit about Sean Astin in the
Oregonian:
You loved him as loyal hobbit Sam Gamgee in the "Lord of the Rings"
films. You adored him in "Rudy." But to you, Astin will always be the
kid from "The Goonies," a film that is widely considered The Best
Movie Ever Filmed In Oregon. Hold onto your mithril, kids: Astin is
coming to Portland. Naturally, you will want to show him a good
time.
A Sean Astin autobiography? Well, sure. (Like you didn't
positively inhale the latest Wil Wheaton book.) Astin's opus,
"There and Back Again: An Actor's Tale," spills the candid scoop on
backstage antics during the filming of "The Lord of the Rings" and the
challenges of living the Hollywood way.
(dorky bolding is mine)
I was so excited, I sent a note to the reporter that said:
I just finished reading your OregonLive piece about Sean
Astin's impending visit to Portland ("Let's go!," by Chelsea Cain,
A&E, Dec. 3), and I wanted to thank you for kindly mentioning my book,
"Just a Geek." I've got strong connections to Oregon (I filmed "Stand
by Me" in Eugene, and my wife is from Portland), so even though I'm
from Los Angeles, I felt like I saw my name in my hometown paper.
Thanks for that! :)
See ya, Wil Wheaton Los Angeles
She wrote me back and thanked me for e-mailing, I wrote her back
again, (it's sort of like passing notes in class, without the possible
thrill of getting caught) one thing led to another . . . and she wrote
a story about me that is in today's
Oregonian! My three favorite bits:
- Since the success of his blog, Wheaton has published two
laugh-out-loud books and established himself as a fresh, funny and
self-deprecating writer. Much of his material comes out of his life as
a geek (he also pens a column for Dungeon Magazine, the must-read for
D&D players).
The Oregonian recently caught up with the ensign-turned-author for
a Very Serious Interview.
- Have you ever read any "Star Trek" fan fiction?
Just one . . . and in it, Lt. Worf traded my character, Wesley, to
a Romulan for a Romulan Ale and two packs of smokes. I haven't read
fan fiction since.
[I originally said that Wesley was Worf's Prision Bitch, but that
was ruled unacceptable for a family publication . . . which I guess
I've just determined WWdN is not.]
- Whose work do you read to get inspired?
David Sedaris and Stephen King are the two most influential authors
in my life. They both tell stories in ways that are engaging and easy
to read. David Sedaris' "Me Talk Pretty One Day" made me want to tell
stories about my life, and Stephen King's "On Writing" taught me how
to do it.
Accompanying the story is the
very first mainstream media review of
Just A Geek! It's phenomenal, and includes the
following observation, which made me so happy, I peed a little:
"Just a Geek" is not a celebrity memoir. It is more a collection of
humorous commentaries with one essential theme: How does a grown-up
geek with two step-kids, a wife, and few job prospects make a go of
it?
[Wheaton's] sarcasm, honesty, heart and ferocious gift for dialogue
are a delight.
So far, I haven't been able to effectively communicate to people who
haven't read my book that it's
not limited to a Star Trek or
celebrity memoir-reading audience, and people outside that audience
may want to give
Just A Geek a chance. It has been the most
frustrating thing in the world, and it's severely limited the audience
that I can reach. To date, I haven't gotten any support to reach
beyond . . . well, you guys who read WWdN, so I've had to do it on my
own. I've felt pretty down about the whole thing recently (it's about
90% of the not sleeping well thing), because things are not going the
way I expected they would with
Just A Geek, but this fantastic
review is going to be a big help, and will hopefully open a lot of
doors for me.
A Final Newspaper Column, and My Thanks
A Final Newspaper Column, and My Thanks
01/02/2005 02:09 PM(This is also my final Sunday column in the San Jose Mercury News.)
Wow, what a ride.
I moved to Silicon Valley a little over 10 years ago. I've been
constantly amazed by what has happened here since then -- a furious
rush of innovation and change.
I'm not smart or wise enough to predict in any detail what will happen
in the next decade. But I'm certain that, as always, it'll be
interesting, because innovation and change are still the coins of this
realm.
It didn't take long to learn what made Silicon Valley so special. The
combination of attributes was unequaled: the great research
universities, an astonishing collection of talent, a pool of investors
with enormous sums at their disposal and an ingrained culture of
risk-taking. (The weather's nice, too.)
The willingness -- no, eagerness -- to take risks has always been the
valley's most special quality. In most places, business failure leaves
an indelible career stain. Here, failure is often seen as an
education, provided one fails the right way, which is to say not
stupidly or sleazily.
The rise and fall of Apple's fascinating but flawed Newton handheld
computer, for example, helped spark the Palm Pilot, the true
breakthrough in the genre. I won't forget the shiver of excitement I
and others in a crowd of tech executives and journalists felt when we
saw the first Palm on the 1996 Demo conference stage.
We don't think of the Apple iPod or today's ever-smarter mobile phones
as more modern handheld computers, but they are. They're also a result
of the valley's relentless progress.
The chips powering not just PCs but all kinds of everyday objects are
making everything more intelligent. Even faster advances in storage
mean that all these intelligent things are gaining memory. And the
advent of faster data networks -- still retarded by cable and phone
companies, unfortunately -- means that we're connecting it all.
Those intelligent connections are bringing vast capabilities to the
people at the edges of networks. The long-range importance of early
Internet file-sharing was not the potential for copyright
infringement. It was the heightened ability of everyday people to
inform and help each other.
Along the way, we went through the bubble years, a time when greed
totally superseded all other principles and values. The prevailing
Wall Street attitude, which also pervaded the valley, was sickening.
When what's acceptable is what you can get away with, society has
turned rancid.
The bubble's deflation was hellish for those who became collateral
damage. But it was useful in reminding us that even in such a
fast-changing world, a few tried-and-true principles, economic and
otherwise, still applied.
In the past several years the valley has returned, in part, to useful
roots. Innovation and building great companies matter as much to
entrepreneurs as scoring big financially. And everywhere I look, I see
innovation.
But I also see competition where it didn't exist before. The rest of
the world has learned some of the valley's lessons and can provide
much of what we do here at a lower cost. This is the harsh dynamism of
the modern world at work. The fact that other regions are rising
economically is positive overall, even if it's not the best news
locally.
As noted, I'm not smart enough to tell you what's coming in any
specific way. But we can look together at the trends and imagine some
of what might be, if all goes well.
We will see breathtaking leaps in medicine, environmental protection,
and a variety of materials sciences and manufacturing processes. We
can thank advances in biotechnology and the emerging field of
nanotechnology. Information technology is at the heart of both as a
tool, and it will remain so.
The Internet and its progeny are still early in their development,
meanwhile. The Net is nowhere near as universal as it will be when we
enter an age of what some call ubiquitous computing, but the outlines
of its value are obvious today. For example, all media will eventually
move around the world in little digital packages, called packets, that
are the basic units of tomorrow's communications. The importance of
this -- in decimating old businesses while improving most people's
lives -- has not been sufficiently appreciated.
The risks are growing, too. When the ability to do great things
spreads away from the center, so does the ability to do massively
dangerous things. The power of one fanatic or small group to create
incalculable damage -- assuming we don't do it simply by mistake --
should worry everyone. But we should not allow that concern to stifle
progress.
And, as always, the people and institutions currently holding the
clout don't cede it willingly. Governments are clamping down on us in
all kinds of ways. Incumbent business powerhouses are trying to hold
back the tide as well, not just to keep their positions but also to
thwart new innovation that might threaten them.
These reactionary encroachments and retrenchments are not surprising.
They always occur in times of swift change and challenge. In the end,
they are almost always unsuccessful, because progress ultimately finds
a way around barriers, and because people challenge the reactionaries.
But we need to keep the pressure up, as citizens and people who want
the freedom to use these new tools and live in liberty. The stakes are
high, and liberty takes work.
This is my last column for the Mercury News. Starting tomorrow, I'll
embark on a new adventure, a project to help bring online grass-roots
journalism to more people and communities.
I leave a job that has been a constant challenge in the best sense,
often an outright joy. I leave colleagues whom I like and admire. But
this opportunity, to help create something truly new and valuable, is
too exciting not to try.
During these past 10 years I've enjoyed a privileged, front-row seat
-- not on a roller coaster, even if it occasionally seemed that way,
but a vehicle of exploration. I'm grateful for the opportunity to have
taken this fantastic ride.
Mostly, though, I'm grateful to you. This has always been about you,
the people who read what I write. I've tried to be on your side.
Even when you've disagreed with me, you've been on my side in a vital
way. You've challenged me to think deeply about technology and the
larger issues we must all ponder and deal with in this complex era.
You've always known more than I do, and I'm fortunate that you haven't
been shy about telling me.
Our conversation -- which I hope we'll continue as my new project gets under way
-- has been a constant source of inspiration. If it's meant something
to you, that pleases me more than I can say. Thank you all.

site design which does
validate as xhtml. More interesting to me are their
category archives and
date
archives, which mimic a weblog's simple and useful layout. Heck, I
even love

story pages which feature large leaded text (space between lines -
the amount of "double spaceness") which is also blog-like,
and makes for comfortable reading. As far as I know, SF Examiner is
the first, but will this start a new wave of bandwidth-saving,
well-designed newspaper redesigns? [via
