  • CARDAMOM by the Numbers
    20 FLAVOR INSIGHT 16 REPORT CARDAMOM By the Numbers A member of the ginger family, this aromatic spice is native to India and grows in many other tropical areas. Cardamom seeds are encapsulated in small pods about the size of a cranberry. Cardamom has a strong, pungent flavor with notes of lemon, smoke and mint. It is widely used to flavor dishes from stews and curries to desserts. Let’s take a look at the various forms of cardamom on the menu, in social media, and in new products. 1900 Averill Road, Geneva, IL 60134 630.578.8600 | www.fona.com Cardamom Spotlight There are several mentions of cardamom in social media. Here are some of the highlights. • A quick Twitter search provides tweets mentioning cardamom with recipes for coffee cardamom walnut cakes, nutty cardamom fro-yo cups and a pistachio cardamom cake. • While perusing Pinterest, cardamom pins were spotted with a good variety of food and beverage recipes, but mostly recipes for cake and cookies. Some of the recipes include: cardamom spiced ginger cookies, cinnamon cardamom cake with maple pecan frosting, pistachio cardamom coffee cake and even cardamom coffee. • On Food.com 4,238 recipes appear if you search for cardamom. Recipes include cardamom lassi, cardamom tea, pear cardamom bread and Christmas cardamom butter cookies. • The New York Times website introduced “Hot Cereal 30 Ways at Oatmeals in Greenwich Village.” Cardamom is featured on the menu in their Indian Spiced Oatmeal with flavors of chai, Pistachio Cardamom Cake cardamom and crystallized ginger for a touch of crunch, mixed with almonds, raisins and a splash of coconut milk.

  • 1. Introduction to Historical Monetary and Financial Statistics for Sweden: Exchange Rates, Prices, and Wages, 1277–2008
    1. Introduction to Historical Monetary and Financial Statistics for Sweden: Exchange rates, prices, and wages, 1277–2008 Rodney Edvinsson, Tor Jacobson and Daniel Waldenström 1.1. Background to the project This book presents new evidence on the long-run evolution of Sweden’s monetary and financial system, beginning in the Middle Ages and leading up to the present day. These new series have been generated as part of a research project run by Sveriges Riksbank, Historical Monetary and Financial Statistics for Sweden. In this project, a group of academic scholars from the disciplines of economic history and economics have compiled existing evidence and assembled new data. The present volume presents chapters dealing with exchange rates, consumer prices and wages. The overall ambition of this project has been to construct time series that are con- sistent over time and adjusted so as to fit the definitions that are applied today. There is a great difference between compiling contemporary statistics, for which data are often easily accessible, and historical statistics, where the availability of data is more of a problem. Linking long-run time series requires not only an understanding of their economic importance but also thorough knowledge of the relevant historical circumstances under which the data were generated in the past. Needless to say, this makes great demands of the researchers compiling these series. History offers empirically oriented economists an indispensable substitute for sci- entists’ laboratories. Having comparable series that span extensive time periods will greatly facilitate long-term analysis of a number of important issues. For example, the relation between money supply and inflation, or detecting specific long-run pat- terns in the macroeconomy, require that data are consistent and comparable across 12 Exchange rates, prices, and wages, 1277–2008 Th e Gate Coin (1885), by Johan August Malmström (1829–1901), a Swedish artist associated with the Symbolist movement.

  • Enlightened Monarchy” in Practice
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Helsingin yliopiston digitaalinen arkisto “Enlightened Monarchy” in Practice. Reforms, Ceremonies, Self-Fashioning and the Entanglement of Ideals and Values in Late Eighteenth-Century Sweden Henrika Tandefelt This article sets out to study the entanglement of different political, ideological and moral ideals and traditions in the Kingship of Gustav III, King of Sweden 1772–1792. Political thinking and practice in Eighteenth-Century Europe offered many elements and examples that different monarchs could apply in their own particular circumstances. Gustav III was one of the European Kings that openly supported the French enlightened thinkers fashioning himself as a Reformer-King. He was also very influenced by the French culture over all, and the culture of the traditional royal court in particular. In addition the Swedish political history with a fifty-year period of decreased royal power before the coup d’état of Gustav III in 1772 influenced how the European trends and traditions were put into practice. The article pursues to understand the way different elements were bound up together and put to action by the King in his coup d’état 1772, his law reforms in the 1770s and in the establishment of a court of appeal in the town Vasa in Ostrobothnia in 1776 and the ceremonial, pictorial and architectural projects linked to this. In this article I examine what has been called the enlightened absolutism of the Swedish king Gustav III (1746–1792) during his reign of 1772–1792. Gustav III’s reign began with a royal coup d’état in August 1772 and ended with the king being murdered during a masquerade ball at the Royal Opera in Stockholm in March 1792.

  • Was Napoleon Jewish?
    return to updates Was Napoleon Jewish? by Miles Mathis First published April 16, 2016 As usual, this is all just my opinion, reached by personal research You won't believe what got me into this. Well, those of you who know I am an artist, and who know I look closely at photographs, might believe it. It was this photo of Karl Marx: Notice his hand. He is doing the Napoleon thing there, isn't he? Why? Well, we know Marx was Jewish. Might this be some sort of signal? He is keeping something “close to the vest” there. Might it be the same thing Napoleon is keeping close to his vest? Before you dismiss this as ridiculous, you should know that many famous people have thought Napoleon is Jewish. So I am not the first to suggest it. Benjamin Disraeli, the only Jewish Prime Minister of England, implied Napoleon was Jewish. Disraeli wrote fiction, and in his book Tancred, (published in 1847—note the date), he said through his narrator Sidonia that crypto-Jews were everywhere in positions of power, as generals, academics and statesmen. He said that not only was Napoleon a Jew, but that Mozart, Beethoven, and Haydn were Jewish also. As a Jew, Disraeli would know. In his next book, Lord George Bentinck, Disraeli went further, telling us The first Jesuits were Jews; that mysterious Russian diplomacy which so alarms western Europe is organized and principally carried on by Jews. men of Jewish race are found at the head of every one of these [Communist and Socialist] groups.
