Ice Cream vs Gelato: The Definitive Guide
Without a doubt, one of the most common questions we get from our customers is helping them to distinguish between ice cream and gelato.
Yes, of course they're both absolutely delicious but ice cream and gelato are more different than most people realize.
Many people think that gelato is just a fancy Italian name for ice cream. But ice cream vs gelato, especially when you get into the more exotic and fruit flavors, couldn't be more different from each other.
This post should give you all the background and facts you need to distinguish between ice cream vs. gelato, and vice versus.
Ice Cream vs Gelato: The Quick Guide
Here is what constitutes ice cream and what constitutes gelato.
Gelato Is More Dense
Gelato is churned at a much slower rate than ice cream. This slower churn process incorporates less air and leaves gelato much more dense than ice cream.
Different Serving Temperatures
Gelato is served at a slightly warmer temperature than ice cream, so its texture stays silkier and softer. Ice cream is served colder to hold the scoops together better.
Different Fat Percentage
Gelato has a lower percentage of fat than ice cream.
Here's more detail for those that want a deeper dive:
The Common Bond That All Frozen Desserts Share
If you face a dilemma every time you go to buy a frozen dessert, you're not alone. It's easy to get confused between gelato, ice cream, sherbet and all the other concoctions simply because there are so many different products to choose from.
To make things simpler, we'll start with the basics.
The basis of all frozen desserts is a sugar syrup.
The various ingredients and flavors are what characterizes and distinguish frozen desserts from each other.
A frozen dessert that consists of nothing but sugar syrup and flavor is referred to as Italian ice, water ice, or sorbet.
When you add a small amount of milk to a product, then it becomes sherbet.
Ice cream and gelato are both frozen dairy desserts which may make it seem like they're very similar. But that's where their similarity stops.
Ice Cream: Smooth, Light and Creamy
Ice cream is a frozen dairy dessert made of milk, cream, sugar, and usually egg yolks. American-style ice cream didn't initially contain eggs however, American ice cream has now evolved to also include the yolks.
The ingredients in ice cream are first cooked together into a rich custard. After the custard base is cooled, it's churned at a fairly high speed to incorporate air and increase its volume.
Ice cream is served at a cold temperature that help to make the scoops hold together.
The finished product is smooth, light-textured, and creamy.
How Does Ice Cream Gets its Super Smooth and Creamy Consistency?
The word that's used to describe the process that the liquid cream mixture goes through before freezing is "overrun." "Overrun" refers to the process of whipping the mixture so that its volume increases in proportion to the amount of air that is whipped into the mixture.
Federal regulations prohibit ice cream manufacturers from having more than 100 percent overrun, an amount that doubles the volume of the liquid base.
Ice cream is whipped with a paddle that moves around in a circle, going very fast as it does so. During this process, the air that is beaten into the ice cream not only contributes to the smooth and creamy texture; it also lets the ice cream harden in the freezer.
This certainly makes it easier for large ice cream producers to transport their products around the country, we feel that although less convenient and more labor intensive to manufacture, small batch ice cream produces more flavor and a better texture.
Official US Ice Cream Standards
Making Ice Cream that Conforms to the "Code of Federal Regulations"
All ice cream manufacturers in the United States must adhere to specific criteria, as it is outlined in the "Code of Federal Regulations." The code has guidelines to which ice cream makers must adhere in order to label or sell their products as "ice cream".
Frozen dairy desserts are fortified with condensed or powdered milk and/or cream. When a product is fortified with enough milk and cream to give it a fat content of at least 10 percent, then it meets the USDA legal definition for ice cream. Gelato has a fat content of between three and eight percent so it can not ever be labeled as ice cream.
Two of the most important requirements of that official code are as follows:
• Any product sold as "ice cream" in the United States must have a minimum fat content of at least 10 percent.
• Ice cream products that are made in the United States must have a minimum milk solid content of 20 percent.
The U.S. government further stipulates that products that are marketed as ice cream can't have any fat other than the fat contained in the flavors that are added to the dairy mixture, and the milk fat that the government requires of products that purport to be ice cream.
In some countries, American ice cream is referred to as "dairy ice cream."
So Then What is Gelato: Dense, Silky and Soft
Gelato is the Italian word for ice cream.
It starts out with a similar custard base as ice cream, but has a higher proportion of milk and a lower proportion of cream and eggs (or no eggs at all).
Gelato is churned at a much slower rate, incorporating less air and leaving the gelato denser than ice cream.
Gelato is served at a slightly warmer temperature than ice cream, so its texture stays silkier and softer.
Gelato has a lower percentage of fat than ice cream, because of this the main flavor ingredient shines through. This is why ice cream has more variety of mixed flavors and ingredients.
Gelato has a much softer texture, but some people describe the taste as denser.
The manner in which gelato is whipped is different from that of ice cream. First of all, the paddle moves up and down, and it moves very slowly compared to the rate at which traditional ice cream is spun.
Ultimately, gelato has far less air in it than ice cream.
This characteristic makes it more difficult to transport in bulk, even in refrigerated trucks. When you buy gelato in a large grocery store freezer, you may be buying a product that contains stabilizers to aid in transport.
This is also a benefit of eCreamery's small batch gelato.
Gelato Recipes Differ By Region:
Traditional Italian gelato recipes differ from region to region.
Gelato products that are made in the United States tend to have a higher ratio of milk to cream than ice cream, which is the opposite.
Southern Italian gelato, such as that which you might find in Sicily, is made without egg yolks. The typical ingredients in southern Italian gelato might include milk, fruit, sugar, and cornstarch. The cornstarch is used as a stabilizer.
If you venture to Northern Italy, you'll find that the gelato that is made in the Dolomite region is made with egg yolks and cream.
What Taste's Better - Gelato vs Ice Cream?
That question is impossible to answer. It's kind of like trying to compare apples and oranges, or champagne and caviar.
They are both frozen dairy treats, and they both come in a range of flavors and flavor combinations that probably exceeds any amount you can begin to imagine.
The only way you're going to find out what you like best is by trying both, and by allowing yourself to savor the flavors as you revel in frozen dairy bliss.
To avoid confusing your palate with such deliciousness, you may want to try each product separately so you can enjoy each one in its full glory, all alone.
Luckily, eCreamery has both small batch custom ice cream and small batch custom gelato. So you can try the exact flavors you love, and get them shipped right to your door.

Training Camp Daily Dose: Dose: The Kelvin Conundrum
My roommate has taken up a new hobby—studying for the GMATs. I have a crippling fear of standardized tests, so this certainly wouldn't be my idea of a good time, but to each their own. My roommate's renewed interest in academics (obviously he's trying to get his Master's—nobody takes the GMATs for fun) got me thinking about the SATs and some of the tests I took in high school and college. There's nothing worse than getting stuck on a question, your eyes wandering around the room, hoping the answer will miraculously present itself.
I'll probably never take another standardized test but I still get stumped on a fairly regular basis. Fantasy football will do that to a person. The player I'm stuck on is Kelvin Benjamin. To draft or not to draft, that is the question. Clearly I'm not the only one perplexed by Benjamin. Earlier this month, RotoPat included him in his must-read article on dividing-line players. And if you bought our Draft Guide (available here), you'll recall what happened when the guys met up for an early mock draft. The 12 of us avoided Benjamin like the plague until I mercifully stopped his free-fall by snagging him at 55th overall. The general public seems to be slightly more confident: Benjamin's consensus ADP is 44th in standard leagues and 36th in PPR. That puts Benjamin on the low end of the WR2 spectrum, a territory occupied by the likes of Golden Tate, Jarvis Landry and Doug Baldwin. They all carry risk but the upside lifts most of them to fourth-round status.
Editor's Note: For updated rankings, projections, player profiles, positional tiers, mock drafts, sleepers and busts, exclusive columns and plenty more, check out our Draft Guide!
It's easy to see why fantasy owners aren't all in on Benjamin. They rarely are when a player is coming off a major injury and that's certainly the case with the Panthers' third-year wideout. Benjamin sat out all of 2015 after suffering a torn ACL in training camp, though he's appeared in both of Carolina's preseason games to this point. In those contests, he's logged three catches for 34 yards including 29 on two receptions in last week's win over Tennessee. The results for players coming off major knee surgery are all over the map. Adrian Peterson was a beast the year after his ACL injury but others like Robert Griffin III and Wes Welker weren't as lucky.
It's a coin flip whether Benjamin will be the same player he was before his injury but that also raises another question: who WAS Benjamin before the injury? Including the playoffs, Benjamin has played a grand total of 18 NFL games. Fantasy owners, particularly the ones who read this site, are known for glossing over mountains of stats in search of a juicy nugget that might inform their opinion. But with Benjamin, we only have 18 games to choose from. That's not much of a sample size. Benjamin's numbers in 2014 were good by rookie standards but he was still far from a finished product. Benjamin was drop-prone and lacked consistency but made up for these deficiencies by bullying defenders in the red zone with his hulking 6'5" figure.
Based on his usage as a rookie, it would have been fair to assume the Panthers would struggle to move the football in 2015. Instead they led the league in scoring behind an MVP effort from Cam Newton. Carolina's offensive output was particularly surprising given that the team had no go-to receiver. Tight end Greg Olsen was the closest Carolina had with 77 catches for 1,104 yards and seven touchdowns. Meanwhile deep threat Ted Ginn caught fewer than half his targets but still produced a career-high 10 touchdowns while impressing with his immense speed.
The hope was that training camp would help alleviate some of the confusion surrounding Benjamin but that hasn't happened. Benjamin's fantasy stock is as murky as ever with conflicting reports coming out of Panthers camp. Coach Ron Rivera said Benjamin was in "pretty doggone good form" when camp opened but changed his tune two weeks later when he called out Benjamin for his sluggish conditioning.
Wide receivers coach Ricky Proehl stoked the flames by hinting that Benjamin could be facing competition from second-year wideout Devin Funchess. Some are expecting Funchess to make a big leap this year after an underwhelming rookie season that included just 31 catches for 473 yards and five touchdowns. While Benjamin's performance has drawn mixed reviews, Funchess has been a standout at camp, impressing with his ability to get behind the defense, particularly on deep throws. But like Benjamin, he's still largely unproven. The 22-year-old logged fewer than four catches in all but two games last season and didn't visit the end zone until Week 9. Funchess offers many of the same traits as Benjamin with his big frame and penchant for making noise in the red zone. It will be fascinating to see how they mesh when the games start counting next month. Until then, all fantasy owners can do is close their eyes and hope for the best.
Karlos Unclaimed
The NFL is a demanding, results-driven league but you'd have to really screw up to get cut a year after scoring nine touchdowns in only 11 games. Mission accomplished, Karlos Williams.
The second-year running back had about as bad an offseason as you could have. Williams wasn't even allowed to participate at minicamp in June after showing up 30 pounds heavier than his listed weight of 230. Supposedly Williams put on sympathy weight during his fiancée's pregnancy. He also found time to fail a drug test, resulting in a four-game suspension. When Williams started to put on weight again during training camp, the Bills decided they'd seen enough. Williams was cut over the weekend and went unclaimed on waivers, making him a free agent.
The NFL is populated with some pretty large human beings and weight is always going to be an issue for certain players. Eddie Lacy struggled with it all of last season. The reason Williams is unemployed right now isn't necessarily because he's a lesser talent than Lacy, or even that he might be expendable in an offense that lives and dies by LeSean McCoy. It's that Lacy cared and Williams didn't. Lacy was embarrassed that he gained so much weight and worked his butt off this offseason to improve his physique. The fact that Williams was able to GAIN weight during camp is truly astonishing. A team easily could have scooped him up during the waiver period but instead the league seems to be sending Williams a message. The message? Get your act together. Hopefully Williams hears it loud and clear.

MinerOne ICO: How they are making mining simple and automatic.
Although bitcoin is one of the most valuable cryptocurrencies in the market, mining it is not easy. The current mining protocol, popular known to many as PoW (proof-of-work), is extremely difficult. It requires the miner to have powerful software and to solve complex problems. But this may never be the same again. A new bitcoin mining project is promising to make the mining quite simple and automatic. Its name is Miner One or Mio.
Miner One is on cutting edge, crowdfunded bitcoin mining operation that is promising to more coins at minimal cost and time. A team of data center experts is running the operation. Upon completion, it will be one of the most advanced mining equipment that consumes little amount of electricity thus leading to profit for all community members. The Idea behind the project is to build a mining center and share the spoils or the output of the centers transparently suing Ethereum based smart contracts.
How Does Miner One Work?
Everything on Minor One Ecosystem revolves the use the token or the currency called MIO. That is what proves the ownership or membership of the community.

Brian attended his first CrossFit class in September 2014. His interest in the sport was piqued when he saw people running outside in the rain carrying slam balls. Were those people crazy, or on to something great? He had to give it a try. Now going on two plus years as a CrossFit athlete, Brian's drive to achieve a high level of athletic virtuosity is still what motivates and pushes him.
Growing up, Brian played soccer, ran cross country, and in high school ran varsity track. In college, he played rugby as well as a variety of other sports, including lacrosse, ultimate Frisbee, cycling, and swimming, to name a few. However, each sport always seemed to end abruptly because of an injury, whether it was knee, back, or shoulder related. Because CrossFit teaches proper movement patterns and techniques, a lot of these issues have been resolved for Brian. Now, with the ability to achieve a higher level of athleticism, Brian is as excited and as competitive as ever.

Koschman Case Only About Justice
by BGA December 8, 2012 November 10, 2022
It was never about Rich Daley, the former mayor. Or his nephew, R.J. Vanecko. Or even David Koschman, the victim of the lethal punch Vanecko allegedly threw during a booze-fueled altercation on Division Street in 2004.
It was always about a justice system that must be characterized by its first four letters — j-u-s-t — and by its fairness and impartiality.
That's a pillar of civil society, a cornerstone of democracy and a basic principle of good government. When it fails the family of one victim, it fails all of us.
And that's apparently what happened with the initial investigation of Koschman's death, which was riddled with so many troubling law enforcement lapses and disconnects that many observers, including the Better Government Association, believe that basic tenets of justice were undermined or ignored.
No one is saying publicly that Daley pulled any strings. But his police department handled the investigation. His friend and political ally Dick Devine was Cook County state's attorney at the time. And this is Chicago, where there's a Way.
So files went missing. Police reports got changed. And key interviews were either misrepresented or never even conducted
The initial probe concluded the diminutive Koschman was the aggressor, so no charges were filed against linebacker-sized Vanecko, who threw the fatal punch in a death the medical examiner labeled a homicide. Koschman's head hit the pavement so hard he never regained consciousness and died 11 days later.
His mother, Nanci — already a widow — lost her only son, and her ensuing years were wracked by grief, loneliness and a sense of injustice.
That same concern also prompted Sun-Times investigative reporters to revisit the case, unearthing and publishing disturbing new details that contradict the original conclusions.
Local cops and prosecutors rejected the newspaper's findings, maintaining the veracity of their original investigation. Not surprising — the current state's attorney, Anita Alvarez, was one of Devine's top deputies in '04.
So last year the BGA filed an amicus brief in support of Nanci Koschman's request for a "special" prosecutor from outside the system to take a fresh look.
Our brief argued that justice could be ensured only by an outsider with the "courage and fortitude to stand up for transparency and accountability."
Judge Michael Toomin agreed with the BGA and with Koschman attorney Locke Bowman's similar argument, so legal superstar Dan Webb was appointed, and this week he announced that a special grand jury was charging Vanecko with involuntary manslaughter.
The indictment labels Vanecko the aggressor, not Koschman. A complete 180.
Webb also hinted at additional charges if there's evidence of misconduct by the officials who handled the original investigation.
As for Nanci Koschman, she says it's not about sending Vanecko to jail because that would punish another mother.
She simply wanted to visit David's grave to deliver a message: A Koschman is entitled to the same justice as a Daley or a Vanecko — justice that protects the innocent and punishes the guilty, regardless of clout or connections.
Message received. It's taken too long and cost too much money— Webb's final bill may reach a million dollars — but you can't put a price tag on justice. You can, thankfully, put the j-u-s-t back in. At least in this case.

Akiki was diagnosed with drug-resistant TB in April 2002 when she was just six years old. Akiki was admitted to the hospital because her treatment required her to be hooked up to a tube that could deliver medicines through one of her veins, and she also had to receive daily pills from a hospital provider. The pills were too big for Akiki to take easily, and their smell often made Akiki feel nauseated and lose her appetite.
Akiki experienced stigma as a result of her diagnosis. She was moved from a shared room with her brothers into her own room, and she had to use a different cup than everyone else in the family. Because Akiki was very young, she did not understand why this happened nor why she had to take medicines every day, especially when she was no longer feeling sick.
Fortunately, Akiki responded well to her treatment. Her mother wishes that there was more TB advocacy and education in her community. She also notes that it would be valuable for patients and families if there was a forum where those who have had experience with the disease could share the lessons that they have learned with others.

BANDCAMP NAVIGATOR Bandcamp Navigator, May 2021: From Californian Death Metal to Indonesian Garage Rock By Robert Newsome · June 02, 2021
Bandcamp Navigator is a column dedicated to a fan favorite Bandcamp practice: tag-hopping.
I had a friend who was in the hospital for a pretty serious medical issue once, and he told me that what really helped him while he was in there, in the midst of a very real and serious situation, was listening to death metal. My sincere hope is that you aren't currently reading this from a hospital bed, but I think about what he told me quite often. There's something about the overblown macabre theatrics of death metal that can make any adverse situation somehow more bearable. So it's with this in mind that I begin our journey this time around, in search of new death metal to listen to and make life better.
Putrescine
The Fading Flame
The Fading Flame Putrescine .
The fourth release (and first full-length) from San Diego's Putrescine gives classic death metal modern life. Finding inspiration in the writhing, amorphous riffs found on Nocturnus' masterpiece The Key and in Testimony of the Ancients-era Pestilence, The Fading Flame uses that churning template as a structure on which to hang piercing, cascading solos, lung-shredding vocals, and the occasional thick, palm-muted chug. There's a section of riffs near the end of the awe-inspiring title track that sort of sound like they're somehow being played backwards, even though they aren't. It's difficult to wrap your head around, like the auditory equivalent of the monstrous body horror of films like Society (1989) or From Beyond (1986)—and that's the perfect compliment to offer for this ferocious, relentless album.
Of course you're gonna see the #metal at the bottom of The Fading Flame's entry; it would be foolish not to put it there. We're shifting subgenres slightly, though, jumping sideways from visceral death metal to an epic tribute to a foundational text of English fantasy literature.
Emyn Muil
Afar Angathfark
Nartum Art
Afar Angathfark Nartum Art .
Elaborate, multi-layered, and (at times) bombastic, Afar Angathfark offers everything you would expect from a Middle Earth-themed metal band. This album is a tribute to Tolkien's character Fëanor and his quest to recover the Silmarils by Morgoth. Where Blind Guardian addressed this same theme with the speed metal/power metal crossover Nightfall in Middle-Earth, Emyn Muil brings Fëanor's quest to life through a lush, expansive work featuring booming, echoing drums, buzzing black metal guitars, choirs, acoustic instruments, and atmospheric synths. It immediately brings to mind the work of everyone's favorite Nazgûl, Summoning, and during its more metallic moments, the Steven Erikson disciples Caladan Brood. This is no mere imitation, though. Emyn Muil brings Tolkien's densest work to life through a vivid, fully realized musical experience that rewards repeated listening, just as its source material reveals something new with each reading.
Continuing the trend of using glaringly obvious tags as our roadmap, we're going to dig around in the #J.R.R. Tolkien tag now. It looks pretty much how you would expect, populated mostly with metal bands and dungeon synth/dark ambient projects. A fun game you can play when you and your friends are bored is to try to think of a thing (or person or place) in Tolkien's works that there isn't a band named after. It's a very difficult game to win. Our next artist takes their name from the hidden door to Moria, but has made an album focusing on life in The Shire.
Ithildin
A Long-Expected Party
Quebec City, Québec
A Long-Expected Party Ithildin .
Based on the song titles, these instrumental compositions mostly focus on life in The Shire and as such, they have the idyllic, peaceful feel of the rural life led by the Hobbits who live there. These compositions are created by synthesizers using the voices of folk instruments like harps, dulcimers, lutes, and pipes. There's a brief journey outside the Shire, one taken to visit the Dwellers of the Ettenmoors, and the music there is suitably ponderous, heavy, and slightly ominous; perfect for a barren, windswept land known to be home to countless trolls. In The Shire, though, things are more relaxed. A standout here is "There Were Green Trees with Trunks of Dark Smoke," the title of which was taken from Tolkien's description of Gandalf's fireworks, and like that celebratory display, this track (not to mention the album as a whole) is filled with beauty and wonder.
I guess we're still sticking with the big tags, because just look at the size of that #ambient genre tag. It's huge. That's cool. To continue the road trip analogy that is the framework of Bandcamp Navigator, sometimes you find just as much fun on the main highways as you do on the tiny backroads.
Fidelio Fidelio .
The sound of this album brings back some really strong sense memories of lying on the floor wasting countless hours playing a Castlevania game. The synthesized piano and organ, along with ghostly melodies (ranging in speed from the frenetic, galloping "Come Alive in the House That Screams" to the haunting, eerie "Wire Mother") evoke that very specific combination of spooky atmosphere and challenging adventure. This isn't meant as a backhanded compliment, though. Fidelio manages to tap into that feeling without producing a work that's overly derivative. Infused throughout with a strong sense of melody, Fidelio mixes these electronic songs with a variety of influences, including a stylistic homage to John Carpenter on "Real Bad Feeling" and the Madness-style ska influence heard on "Empty and Frantic." The latter even throws in a snarled "1, 2, 3, 4" intro worthy of Dee Dee Ramone.
Although sonically dissimilar to what most people would think of as #punk, that tag can also be applied to the philosophy behind the creation and presentation of a piece of music as well. For our next artist, we're getting a little closer to the sounds you may expect from that tag, but it's still just different enough to offer some surprises.
Billiam
Billiam Cassingles Club 2020
Warttmann Inc.
Billiam Cassingles Club 2020 Warttmann Inc. .
I've got a feeling the titular "2020 Cassingles Club" here was exactly what it sounds like. Luckily, we don't have to wonder what we missed out on, because all the songs are here in one place. This is a perfect representation of my favorite kind of DIY music. It's a musician with an abundance of creativity and ideas goofin' around in their house and putting together some weird, silly songs. Lyrically, these tracks lean on the two punk staples: anger (the pointed ire of "Flemwad," the resigned frustration of "The Future Is Going to Suck," and the direct, succinct focus of "Angry, Short, Song") and desire (see, for example, the bass guitar-driven minimalist techno of "I Just Want A Little Quiet," the fuzzed-out bubblegum pop of "I Don't Wanna Be With You," and the simple brilliance of "I Need A Robot"). 2020 was a stupid year for just about everyone and I'm not gonna try to tell anyone that it was all worth it if it also saw the creation of some good songs, because that's foolish. Still, I hope Billiam keeps making these fun, absurd songs in what we can only hope will be a better future.
Billiam is from #Sydney, Australia's largest city and home to all types of musicians, from synth-heavy punk to Renaissance-style recorder quartets.
The Judgment of Paris
Goddesses The Judgment of Paris .
The recorder is generally thought of as a "practice" instrument—something you learn before moving on to another instrument. Historically, though, it's much, much more than that. Its origins dating back to the Middle Ages, the recorder has recently stepped out of the "educational instrument" box and into the spotlight, especially with the rise in prominence of the Historically Informed Performance approach to music. Australian recorder quartet The Judgment of Paris perform works by modern composers as well as pieces dating back to the late Middle Ages/early Renaissance. Here, pieces range in mood from the sweet, idyllic "Stroll Through a Rose Garden" to the piercing, polyrhythmic "Panels of Light – Transparency and Opacity." In the hands of these skilled musicians, the depth and range of the recorder is demonstrated.
A literal definition of #baroque would confine it to an artistic style that was developed in the early 1600s. I had to look that up, by the way. It's not the kind of thing I just know. Another thing I don't really know is how that tag wound up applied to the next work on this list. I'm happy that it did, though, because that means we get to listen to it.
Gomdrid's Castle
Nicey Music
Gomdrid's Castle Nicey Music .
The artist's notes on this release describe the music as "Medieval-inspired counterpoints in a cartoonish soundfont," but even without that being explicitly stated, it would be difficult to escape the mental image of these tracks accompanying a '90s Klasky Csupo-style animated television show. I'm probably not alone in my habit of making up little narratives to go along with instrumental music that I listen to, and these compositions really make it easy. Maybe it's the cover, with its image of a house built out of what appears to be the iconic red hat of David the Gnome. Still, it's difficult not to hear Gomdrid's Castle and not imagine the lighthearted adventures of some tiny mysterious creature or other. There they are on the beach saving a crab from a net in "Damage to the Oceans;" exploring a bustling, unknown, and slightly foreboding city in "Debate in the Capitol;" and enjoying the panoramic view from the hill overlooking their home village in "Beautiful Earth."
The amount of activity in the #cartoon tag is a testament to the inspirational power of animation of all kinds (and, obviously, the music that accompanies it). Sometimes, though, it's a bit difficult to see exactly how that tag applies to an artist's work, as is the case with our next artist.
Dream Doctor
Finding Comfort in Uncertainty
Finding Comfort In Uncertainty Dream Doctor .
Sometimes you don't really need to look any further than an artist's name to find the perfect descriptor for their art. That's definitely the case here. These mid-to-low tempo pop nuggets are soothing, floating, and, well, dreamy. It's easy to hear the influences of the late '90s Elephant Six sound in Dream Doctor's one-person bedroom pop, from the vocal harmonies in the album opener "Can You Feel It?" and the slightly off-kilter keyboards of "Vampire Bossa," but there's also more than a little of the warbly, hazy, sound of the production of avant-garde rap music, like Dr. Octagon or MF DOOM's King Geedorah project. Listening to the repetitive bass loop and tinkling chimes of "Obscure Interlude" it's easy to imagine surrealist rhymes fitting right in with the mood Dream Doctor establishes here.
Dream Doctor is from #Mexico, and you should know by now that using large location tags is a good way to jump from one artist to another. That's just what we're doing now.
Modulady
Búhos y Otras Especies
Barra De Navidad, Mexico
Búhos y Otras Especies Modulady .
Guanajuato's Modulady return with their first new music in a year, building on the sound of their 2020 self-titled LP. Opening track "Los Búhos" opens with a wistful, echoing riff, adding layers of drums, vocals, and synth drones until the back half of the song explodes in a captivating cascade of sounds. Modulady's roots are planted firmly in shoegaze and dreamy DIY bedroom pop, but somehow the group transcends that description. A key reason why is Aleida Magallanes' vocals which tie the disparate elements of Modulady's sound together without overpowering any one element. "Aves de Garage" is a propulsive instrumental track; it's almost impossible not to imagine scenery whipping past a car window while listening to it. Also presented is a remix of "Los Búhos," re-imagining that track as dance music, as well as an instrumental version.
There's always great stuff waiting in the #indie rock tag. We'll use that to jump almost 10,000 miles across the Pacific Ocean to Indonesia, where we'll meet the final artist on this journey.
Suvenir
West Nusa Tenggara, Indonesia
Suvenir sundancer .
The most immediate and obvious point of reference to what Indonesian duo Sundancer are doing are the legendary Flat Duo Jets. Not just because of the total number of band members, but also because of the rockabilly/garage rock roots both groups share. After the opening Les Baxter-esque exotica intro, Suvenir serves up a generous portion of grit, swing, and reverb (check the Ronettes homage, "Firasat"). But it's not at all done in an aggressive way. There's a laid-back beach vibe that runs through this record, from the palm trees adorning its cover to the relaxed pop feel of the songs here (most notably the subdued bliss of "Kemarau"). This is a record for slow, easy times; something Beach Blanket Bingo's (1965) Eric Von Zipper and his greaser gang would throw on after a hard day of terrorizing straight-laced, clean-cut surfers.
After listening to that Sundancer record, it's easy to imagine a beach scene at sunset where we, exhausted from our travels, rest for a while and think about where our next journey will take us. Whatever we find, it's sure to be unexpected, and that surprise is the most exciting part. See you next time!

Susan Waltz testifies before the Committee on Foreign Affairs
On March 26, 2019, Professor Susan Waltz testified for a subcommittee hearing for the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs, discussing the potential foreign policy and human rights ramifications of the recent small arms transfer proposals.
The proposal, which would remove particular weapons from the U.S. Munitions List, could have a ripple effect, with Waltz concerned about potentially "unraveling an interlocking set of laws and policies intended to prevent exported U.S. weapons from falling into unintended hands." Throughout her testimony, Waltz referenced human rights violations made by the kinds of weapons being discussed. Risk of atrocities like those in Cameroon, the Philippines, and Mexico, Waltz intimated, could be reduced or better monitored with more tracking up-front. Chairman Ami Bera questioned Waltz on whether or not such weapons were from the U.S., with Waltz responding that it's almost impossible to tell, going on to say that this "is the reason why doing all of the due diligence up front...is so important."
Waltz also clarified what she deems a "false dichotomy" between fully-automatic and semi- or non-automatic weapons. "In many perilous human rights situations," Waltz stated, "the weapons slated for transfer to the Commerce Control List are every bit as threatening as fully-automatic weapons. The bright line proposed by the Administration makes a distinction without true difference."
Waltz closed her testimony by stating that she is "not opposed in principle to export control reform, but these particular regulatory changes are irresponsible." The best option, in her opinion, "would be to retain the current range of firearms on the U.S. Munitions List, by supporting HR 1134."
Watch the full subcommittee hearing here.
Susan Waltz is a Professor of Public Policy at the Gerald R. Ford School of Public Policy. Her testimony draws on years of experience in promoting the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty. She also chaired a working group on small arms transfers for Amnesty International, where she served as chair of the international governing board.

Opinion: When U.S.A! U.S.A! chant is not patriotic
Updated 5:50 PM ET, Tue February 26, 2013
Editor's note: Ruben Navarrette is a CNN contributor and a nationally syndicated columnist with the Washington Post Writers Group. Follow him on Twitter: @rubennavarrette.
By Ruben Navarrette Jr., CNN Contributor
San Diego (CNN) -- It never occurred to me that the chant "U.S.A, U.S.A!" -- something you might hear from enthusiastic sports fans at the World Cup or the Olympics -- could be used as an insult. That is, until I saw (and heard) it for myself.
Before I tell that story, let's be clear. Chanting "U.S.A, U.S.A!" is fine; what matters is the context, the intent behind the chant. And that isn't always easy to discern.
It's great if the people chanting are just trying to celebrate a magnificent country. Part of what makes the United States so special in the first place is that we're also an extremely diverse country. The national motto may be "e pluribus unum" (of many, one), but Americans should always strive to cherish and celebrate those cultural differences that make us unique. This means respecting one another as equals.
So it's not so great if the idea of raising one's voice in a group display is to try to put another group of Americans in its place by implying -- solely because of race, ethnicity, heritage or skin color -- that they're not real Americans or "not American enough." Whatever that means.
That is when the chanting can become really offensive. Patriotism is one thing, racial or ethnic putdowns are another. In recent years, we've seen far too many examples of the latter.
In fact, recently, a group of students at Camarillo High School, northwest of Los Angeles, were ejected after leading a rally at a basketball game against a rival school. The students first showed up at the game wearing American flag bandanas, but school officials asked that they remove them. When they refused, they were told to leave the auditorium. They did, but defiantly returned soon after still wearing the bandanas. Then they whipped the crowd into a frenzy by chanting "U.S.A, U.S.A!" That's when they were asked to leave the premises, and report to the principal the next day.

I saw some questions here, on SO, but it seems to me that everyone just took the workaround and have overridden onStop() or onBackPressed() in main activity.
To test and debug, I have created a simple project with the AS wizard (with Navigation Drawer Activity option activated, so there is an Options Menu already incorporated). The only thing added/changed was:
android:configChanges="orientation|keyboardHidden"

in the manifest file, but I am still having the same warning.

Abraham Janssens I
Origin Belgium
Dimensions 118.2 x 98.4 cm (46¹/₂ x 38³/₄ inches)
Gallery Adam Williams Fine Art Ltd
Lascivia can be dated to circa 1618, by comparison with a second version of Lascivia, in the Musée Royaux des Beaux-Arts, Brussels, Inv. no. 6592, which however lacks the exquisite still life elements seen on the table at the lower left of the present composition as well as the glass and bread placed on the table beneath the mirror. The recent cleaning of the painting has removed old over-paint which was added to mask the second copulating sparrow perched on Lascivia's raised left hand. Further comparisons can be made with Janssens' Diana and Nymphs, (c. 1617; Kassel, Gemaldegalerie Alte Meister, Inv. no. GK83) and Olympus, (Munich, Alte Pinakothek, Inv. no. 4889). These, and the present work, all attest to Janssens' changing style, moving away from an earlier Caravaggesque tenebrism towards a greater classicism, which can be seen in his work as early as 1612.
The monumental figure seen in this composition, so clearly identified by the emblazoned "LASCIVIA" seen on the strap of her mantle, harkens back to examples from Renaissance Italy, while the still life elements in the picture reflect developments in Flanders by Janssens' contemporaries Osias Beert, Jacob van Hulsdonck and Frans Snyders, among others. From the Middle Ages onwards artists such as Giorgione, Veronese, Titian, and Rubens had focused on images of Venus and other allegorical figures to portray the seductive beauty of the female body. Such figures would often personify positive concepts such as Veritas (truth), Sapientia (Wisdom), and Prudentia (Prudence), or negative ones such as Superbia (Arrogance), Vantias (Vanity) or Lascivia (Wantonness). Here the image of Lascivia clearly combines the concepts of vanity, sensuality and erotic love. The seductive woman here looks at herself in the mirror, a traditional symbol of vanity, revealing the falseness of the external world. However, unlike earlier northern painters, Janssens and other artists of the period were looking for a new more secular pictorial language, one that retained the necessary didactic character, while revealing a softer and less intense moralizing tone.
Abraham Janssens was also known as Janssens Van Nuyssen, a name he adopted from his mother's family in order to distinguish himself from other members of the Janssens family of contemporary artists. He was a pupil of Jan Snellinck, and he was first recorded when admitted as a teaching master into the Guild of St. Luke in 1601, and in 1607 he became dean of the master-painters. He married in 1602, and his daughter, Anna, married Jan Breughel the younger, the son of "Velvet" Breughel, and the second of his sons, named Abraham like his father, became a painter, and was admitted a member of the Guild of Painters in 1636. His earliest pictures are characteristic of the northern Mannerist tradition, however his stylistic development indicates that he was in Rome between 1598 and 1601 and probably revisited the city sometime between 1602 and 1610. Beginning about 1610 the influence of the dramatic lighting and vigorous modeling of Caravaggio and the Roman Baroque school becomes clearly manifest in his work. His mature style would become more classical in expression, and he became known as the leading exponent of the classical Baroque style in Flanders during the early 17th century.
Janssens was a contemporary of Rubens, and until the appearance of that great master, was considered the best historical painter of his time. The styles of the two artists are not dissimilar in both skill in drawing and the creation of bold compositions, often employing nude figures. He was a master of chiaroscuro, with a taste for strong contrasts of light and shade, which he frequently explored in scenes lit by candle or torch. The artist was highly respected in Antwerp, spoken of in terms of friendship and affection by other artists, and recognized as a man of great genius, taking a high position in the very first rank. The best of Janssens' pictures are to be seen at Antwerp, especially in the churches of the Carmelites and St. Charles, and in the cathedral, the painting of The Entombment in the Carmelite church being one of his very finest productions. There are three important paintings by him in the Antwerp Museum, two in the cathedral at Ghent, one in the cathedral at Bruges, a remarkable mythological scene representing Venus and Jupiter in Brunswick, and a fine picture of St. Cecilia at Cologne. Other galleries containing works by this important artist are those of Berlin, Brussels, Cassel, and Vienna. In at least two of his pictures he worked in collaboration with Snyders. The flowers and fruit in his picture of Pomona at Berlin, and the animals in his representation of Atalanta in the same gallery were painted by his friend, Snyders. His works were enormously popular and many of his pictures were engraved.

Lord's Resistance Army kidnaps dozens in Central African Republic
BANGUI (Reuters) - Lord's Resistance Army (LRA) rebels killed a villager and abducted dozens of others during two weekend raids in a remote diamond-producing area of Central African Republic, local residents and officials said on Tuesday.
The incidents represent the largest kidnapping by the Ugandan rebel group - headed by notorious warlord Joseph Kony - in recent months in the former French colony, which is also reeling from years of inter-religious bloodshed.
The LRA, known for massacring and mutilating civilians as well as abducting children to serve as fighters and sex slaves, raided a mine near the village of Diya, around 600 km (370 miles) east of the capital Bangui, on Saturday.
"In the first abduction, they kidnapped 10 people. Six were freed. The others are still with them. In the second abduction, around 20 people were taken and are still with the attackers," said local government official Herve Omere Fei-Omona.
He said one person was also killed and a vehicle was burned during the attacks.
News of the kidnappings emerged on Tuesday due to the raids' isolated location and Central African Republic's poor communications infrastructure, made worse by violence between Muslims and Christians that has split the former French colony.
Local residents said the gunmen wore uniforms and did not speak French or the national language, Sango.
"Those kidnapped went to sell their products at the market in Diya and were kidnapped in order to carry what the LRA had looted in the village," said local humanitarian worker Gaston Gazale.
After a military crackdown by Kampala, the LRA left Uganda about a decade ago and its fighters have roamed across lawless parts of Democratic Republic of Congo, South Sudan and Central African Republic ever since.
The United States has backed Ugandan-led regional military efforts to defeat the rebels, who are now believed to number just several hundred battle-tested fighters in addition to Kony and other leaders wanted by the International Criminal Court.
However, despite some progress, notably the surrender of senior commander Dominic Ongwen last year, the LRA continues its attacks on civilians.

A new behind-the-scenes video from "The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug" has arrived online, showing what exactly Cumberbatch went through in order to become the menacing dragon mentioned in the title. He appears only toward the end of "Desolation of Smaug," but the scenes between Bilbo Baggins and the slumbering, snarling, scaly sky-serpent are among the most memorable not just in the film, but in all the Middle-Earth movies.
