The tank is designed to provide maximum thermal stratification, with the goal of having the tank top near 80°C during winter months, and 50-55°C in the summer.
In the winter, the boiler heats the tank whenever the boiler is making more heat than the house zones can absorb. In turn, the tank provides heat to the house zones when the boiler is not active.
Part of the challenge is in determining the best insulation. The tank is be located outside, where temperatures can reach -30°C (-25 °F).
Wood gasification boilers burn most efficiently at constant high temperatures. The ideal pattern is to run at full output for a while, then shut down for a while. There is some loss during startup and burnout.
The boiler has a peak heat output of 70,000 to 80,000 btu/hr. The house needs an average of approximately 300,000 to 350,000 btu/day during the heating season. This means that on average, the boiler needs to run at full output for four or five hours per day.
The problem with this is that the house, hot water heater, and hot tub need heat throughout the day. Furthermore, there is no place to dump as much heat as the boiler can generate during a five hour run.
If all house heating zones are demanding heat, they can absorb at most 30,000 btu/hr.
When the hot tub needs heat, it can absorb 40,000 btu/hr, and typically requires 10,000 btu per heating cycle.
The domestic hot water heater can absorb about 100,000 btu/hr, but requires only 20,000 btu per cycle.
As a result, even if everything is cool when the boiler is fired, after an hour or two everything will be warm.
During the summer, the solar panel has many of the same issues. It generates much more heat during a sunny day than is needed. However, it generates nothing during many of the times that hot water is used.
The solution is to provide a mechanism to store heat. By far the most cost-effective technique is a big insulated tank of water.
If heat exchanger coils are going to be placed in the tank, the tank will need an open top.
In an application where hot water baseboards are used (or where there is a need to really maximize the amount of stored heat), water may be handled and stored at temperatures of 180 deg F. Many plastics will lose strength over time at these temperatures. Polypropylene is one of the few low-cost heat tolerant plastics that is widely used to make barrels. A group of polypropylene barrels could be a storage option.
In considering metal barrels, be aware that galvanic corrosion could be a problem. This would particularly be a concern with steel tanks and copper plumbing.
This project is using a stainless steel tank purchased from a local scrap metal dealer.
If a tank can be provided with enough capacity to store a day's worth of heat, it's possible to be clever and time the fire so that days can be skipped much of the time.
How many btu/day is needed?
How long a period must be satisfied with stored heat?
How high a temperature can the tank be heated to?
What is the lowest temperature of tank water that is usable for heating?
What degree of thermal stratification will there be?
The boiler puts out hot water at a maximum of just over 180 deg F. Assuming a starting tank top temperature of 180 deg F and a minumum usable outlet temperature of 160 deg F (reasonable for hot water baseboard heat), a tank of 2100 gallons would be needed to store one day's worth (350,000 btu) of usable energy.
What is the largest tank that can reasonably fit in available locations close to the boiler?
What can be found at an affordable price that will fit in that space?
In this case, the answer was an 880 gallon stainless steel tank that fits under our deck adjacent to the boiler room in the basement. Given a less than desired tank volume, what is the best way to make use of the available heat storage capacity?
Add a radiant floor heat zone for the main floor to use lower temperature water.
Have a controller that can make good decisions about when to heat the hot tub.
Use a separate 'preheat' coil in the bottom of the tank to preheat domestic hot water.
The radiant floor idea has the most potential impact. If it is possible to heat with water down to 120 deg F, the 880 gallon tank would give 440,000 btu of usable heat storage - more than a day's worth.
In this implementation, the water in the tank stays in the tank and does not circulate. Heat exchangers transport heat to and from the tank.
A two-section rectangular spiral with 70' of 1" copper for the solar panel.
A 50' coil of 3/4" copper for the domestic hot water.
A 50' coil of copper with an additional 40" x 60" flat multipipe section at the top and bottom of the tank.
While each of these may be larger than needed, it would be extremely difficult to add exchanger surface area after the tank is installed. One goal of this project is to gain real-world performance data on the effectiveness of these heat exchangers.

Introducing culture into the workplace
New initiative brings humanities to New Hampshire businesses

There may not be an obvious connection between employee retention and a workplace presentation on happiness, but a new program offered by New Hampshire Humanities aims to find out.
Humanities@Work launched earlier this year, bringing almost 30 cultural programs into the workplace, presented during lunch or the best time for employers and employees. The menu of historical, artistic and storytelling programs includes music and poetry appreciation, the history of animation, quilt-making traditions, New Hampshire's architectural legacy, New Hampshire's beer-making history and, yes, the quest for happiness.
The one-hour presentations can complement existing team-building, diversity training and personal development and enrichment, said Dr. Tricia Peone, program manager of Humanities@Work.
"Can the humanities help people in the workplace? We really believe so, and there's been a lot of research they can help employees be more creative and have better communications skills," she said.
The program is a variation on the popular Humanities to Go program presented in libraries, schools, town halls and historical societies throughout the state.
Through mid-May, Peone said there were three Humanities@Work presentations at companies as different as Amherst Label, a family-owned custom label printer in Milford, and Harvest Capital Management, a wealth management and investment company in Concord.
Amherst Label chose "The Quest for Happiness" for its presentation, and Harvest Capital Management opted for "Brewing in NH: An Informal History of Beer in the Granite State from Colonial Times to the Present."
'A great fit'
What the companies shared was a commitment to their employees through a shared learning and exploration experience.
"Providing our Amherst Label team with opportunities to learn ways of enriching their personal lives, knowing our employees are appreciated, are top priorities of ours," said Angela Hornor, special projects manager at Amherst Label. "'The Quest for Happiness' seemed like a great fit for this initiative."
Hornor said that her company has had many "lunch and learn sessions" on wellness topics, including meditation, nutrition and healthy aging. "Amherst Label has a 'painted picture' strategy document, which promotes employee appreciation, communication and continuous improvement. As part of our painted picture, we offer cross-training, free gym memberships, soup day during the cold months and salad and sandwich day during the summer months," she said.

Megan Hudson, client service associate at Harvest Capital Management, said when her company was looking to have a spring outing, the choice was easy.
"It's easy to book," she said. "They came to us and they fit the event in and around our schedule."
The program choice was equally compelling because there is a passionate craft brewer in the firm.
"This was an obvious choice for our group. It was informative, fun and interactive. It was a great way to enjoy time together as a team and be educated in a subject we are all interested in" said Hudson.
This feedback is fulfilling and vital for the program's long-term viability, said Anthony Poore, executive director of New Hampshire Humanities. The program's genesis stemmed from a conversation he had last year with Connie Roy-Czyzowski, vice president of human resources at Northeast Delta Dental, who urged Poore to bring humanities programs to the workplace.
"Connie told me about a Humanities to Go presentation at Northeast Delta Dental a few years before that left a lasting impression," he said. "It was a re-enactor playing Oney Judge, an escaped slave from George Washington's plantation who came to New Hampshire."
"The presentation opened up avenues of dialogue and historical knowledge previously unknown," said Roy-Czyzowski, who is an avid supporter of the New Hampshire Humanities mission. "The discussions that came out of it were organic, and it was a great bonding experience and learning opportunity to see things in a different way."
Poore worked at the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston in community and regional outreach before joining New Hampshire Humanities last year. He immediately started talking to companies around the state about their needs, he said.
Glenn Knoblock, Humanities@Work presenter, with Anthony Poore, executive director of New Hampshire Humanities.
"With the unemployment rate so low, it is really hard to retain good employees and create a positive work experience for them," said Poore, about what he learned. "How do you add something low-cost and meaningful as part of the entire compensation portfolio?"
The goal was to combine what New Hampshire Humanities does best — provide quality, innovative humanities programs — and bring them to the workplace to meet the needs of businesses that want to enrich employee engagement and quality of life in and outside of work, which is a critical part of any company's employee retention strategy.
The key, Poore said, was to develop a platform that was flexible, affordable and sustainable for the long run. So far, so good.
"We are now well past the pilot stage and believe Humanities@Work can be a win-win-win for everyone," he said.
New Hampshire Humanities has teamed up with the Business and Industry Association and the New Hampshire Business Committee for the Arts to spread the word and offer member discounts.
"When Anthony suggested that our organizations partner, we thought it was a great opportunity to collaborate with a like-minded organization and offer our corporate members a discount on the program as a new membership benefit," said Tricia Soule, NHBCA executive director. "We are committed to bringing art and creativity into the workplace. We believe it is important to provide engaging experiences for employees to build connections with one another and consider new and interesting ideas. The Humanities@Work program does exactly that with its wonderfully diverse offerings."
The debriefing was positive at Amherst Label after "The Quest of Happiness" program. "It generated great ideas about happiness in and outside the workplace," Angela Hornor said. "The presentation was very well received, as two-thirds of surveyed employees rated it 'very good' or 'excellent' and said that they learned something new and would like to attend another Humanities@Work event."

The contraception implant (Im*****n) is a small long active reversible contraceptive device (LARC) that is implanted just under the skin, usually in the upper arm, and lasts 3 years.
It works by releasing a small amount of progestogen continuously preventing ovulation. Progestogen is one of the hormones used in the combined oral contraceptive pill (COCP) and is similar to the hormone progesterone found in the body naturally.
The contraceptive implant is one of the most effective forms of contraception, being more than 99.9% effective. This outranks the COCP (91% effective if taken within a 24 hour window daily) and male condoms (82% effective in real world usage).
However some medications can interfere with the effectiveness of the contraceptive implant, and it's important to let us know all prescribed and non prescribed medications you are taking (including vitamins and supplements).
I'm still not convinced I need it, what are the other advantages?
Sounds too good to be true, any disadvantages?
Well like every medication there can be some side effects and changes, and things it just doesn't do.
If you've had a contraceptive implant inserted and are unhappy with your bleeding pattern, talk to your doctor as there are a few things that can be trialled in the first 3-6 months before removing the contraceptive implant.
What the contraceptive implant can't do is protect against STI's.
It also requires a very minor procedure for insertion and removal.
Who can or can't have a contraceptive implant?
The contraceptive implant is safe for many women to use for effective contraception, and can even be used whilst breastfeeding.
There are a few situations where you cannot have a contraceptive implant.
Are there any risks of having a contraceptive implant?
It is possible to develop some headaches, mood changes, breast tenderness or have new onset acne.
This isn't particularly isolated to the contraceptive implant, but applies to most if not all hormonal contraceptives.
Ok I want to get the contraceptive implant, what next?
Firstly you'll need to book in to see one of our doctors to get to know a little bit more about you, and make sure there's no reason we can't insert a contraceptive implant. If everything goes well, we'll issue a prescription and book you back in for the contraceptive implant insertion.
If you already have a contraceptive implant and it's time to change it, you'll need a prescription for a new contraceptive implant and bring this with you to your removal/insertion appointment. If there are any questions you want to clarify, please call one of our friendly reception staff.

If you haven't started your property search, or are still looking, a pre-approved loan can be useful. It gives you a clear picture of what you're spending limits are and gives you peace of mind that if you find a property you really interested in you can move quickly to make an offer. And it may put you in a stronger negotiating position than other potential buyers who don't have pre-approval. A consultant can take care of the paperwork to lodge a loan application.
Whether you buy property at auction or make an offer on a listing, your agreement with the vendor only becomes a legal commitment when a Contract of Sale (Offer of Acceptance in WA) has been signed by both parties. This contract will confirm the selling price as well as any terms and conditions. Your commitment will usually be subject to lender approval, a building inspection report and a pest inspection.
The period from signing a Contract of Sale to Settlement – when the property becomes legally yours – is usually six weeks (shorter in some states, such as Queensland).Note: even if you have a pre-approved loan, your lender will still need to complete a valuation of the property you have chosen before issuing full approval.
A deposit is required once a Contract of Sale has been signed by both parties (sometimes called 'exchanging contracts.') You won't yet have access to your home loan, so your deposit will need to come from savings or elsewhere. You may also be able to arrange a deposit bond until settlement. Speak to Boss Money about your deposit options.
You will need a solicitor or conveyancer to check the legalities of the Contract of Sale. Your conveyancer will also check all rates and taxes have been paid, check land use or building approvals for the property and order any relevant searches. They may also help sort out any inspections.
If you didn't buy your property at auction, you may have a cooling off period when you can cancel the contract, although there may be a small penalty. Cooling off periods vary from state to state so check with your relevant state authority in terms of what your rights may be.

How To Raise Global Citizens
Books Family Games GeekMom Travel
March 15, 2011 Laura Grace Weldon4

Since we live on a small farm we don't have the time or the means to travel. But we have always wanted our children to be global citizens—to truly understand how fully they are linked to their fellow beings on this beautiful blue green planet.
When they were small we read the stories, ate the foods, played the games, and celebrated the festivals of far-off lands. We took the opportunity to offer friendship to foreign visitors through National Council for International Visitors and we connected with elders who shared the cultural richness of their immigrant past.
As our children got older we enjoyed a variety of materials that helped us discover the global fibers that run through history, art, science, literature, really through any field of interest. Here are a few:
Cartoon Guides by Larry Gonick
Dropping Knowledge links people globally who ask questions, exchange ideas, and start initiatives related to pressing issues of our time.
How to Build Your Own Country by Valerie Wyatt
If the World Were a Village by David J. Smith
Material World series by Peter Menzel
Pulse of the Planet expands understanding of nature and culture through sound portraits.
Quantum Shift TV is a video network with user-generated content focused on positive global solutions.
Survival International is dedicated to self-determination for First Nation peoples. It offers information and videos related to this advocacy work.
United Nations Cyber School Bus provides lively opportunities to learn about people and issues around the world.
More than any materials we introduce, the connections my kids find most pivotal are those they make on their own, person-to-person across any distance. For example, one of my musician sons got interested in acoustics. He joined special interest forums to talk with fellow aficionados around the world about the technical details of repairing historic microphones, the artistic nuances of found sound recordings, and the newest information about sound engineering. Friendships developed. Now they converse about everything from politics to movies. Some day when he travels overseas he plans to take them up on their offers to stay in New Zealand, Finland, Brazil, and Germany. Already he's visited friends made online in the U.S., finding the rapport they developed online holds fast in person too.
Perhaps the most important connections any of us can make are lasting, caring relationships with people who live far away. Most often these happen via social media.
Image: Wikimedia
For our family, one of the most enduring relationships we made was in person with an effervescent girl from Belarus named Tatiana. We hosted her through the medical program Children of Chernobyl. Even in her first week here, the strength of her personality more than made up for the few words of English she knew and our poor pronunciation of Russian words we thought we knew. Tatiana was horrified by my vegetarian meals, refused to participate in the activities my outdoor-loving children preferred, and let us know that she hadn't traveled so far to live like a peasant. She wanted to be entertained! Like anthropologists to our own culture we explored shopping malls and tourist sites, bought kids' fast food meals for the prizes, and went to amusement parks rather than wilderness areas. Tatiana displayed her brilliance in many ways, typically beating any of us at board games we'd played for years and she'd just learned. Tatiana stayed with us for five summers, from the years she was eight to 13. She became a member of our family, a family that now feels as if it extends to Belarus.
Each connection of understanding and caring warms our planet–but in a good not-climate-changing way. Which leads me to recommend two wonderful books about raising global citizens.
Growing Up Global: Raising Children to Be at Home in the World by Homa Sabet Tavangar is packed with enrichment ideas, games, service activities, and resources to help raise children with the world in mind. Here are five great ideas from Tavangar's book:
~Talk about the origins and trading routes of products used every day in your home. Try tracing back a chocolate bar, t-shirt, or toy.
~Discover what foods are said to heal common health conditions. Lime juice in armpits is recommended in Paraguay to solve odor, ginger and green onion tea is recommended in China to cure a cold.
~Learn about practices for welcoming newborn babies into the family and community. Consider adapting customs to commemorate a new arrival in your family.
~Make humanitarian work a family affair. It's possible to extend benevolent choices even to the search engine you use. Try www.ripple.org where 100% of search revenues help alleviate urgent global issues.
~Boost cultural understanding and fun by listening to pop music from around the world. (I suggest using online translation to figure out the lyrics.)
And for an inspiring "go there" perspective, read The New Global Student: Skip the SAT, Save Thousands on Tuition, and Get a Truly International Education by Maya Frost. A cure for any but the worst helicopter parents, Frost shows how learning in other countries best prepares today's teens to become self-reliant, confident, and bold adults. Here are five great reasons to read Frost's book:
~Between the ages of 15 and 20, when pivotal life skills are being developed, the reach of our young people tends to be limited. As Frost writes, "They zero in on the fit of their jeans rather than on the fit of a cultural identity within a larger population, and they devote hours to enhancing the clarity of their skin instead of the clarity of their thinking. They are digging into a plate of pettiness because that is precisely what we've served them. They deserve-and are ready for-so much more."
~Get the inside scoop from young people who live and study abroad. Frost calls these snapshots "bold statements" and they provide invigorating examples of what travel can provide.
~Why Rotary International Youth Exchange program www.rotary.org offers the best exchange programs. Frost says it has to do with the network of volunteers around the globe providing support to families and students, the affordable price, and the commitment to humanitarian work.
~How to find helpful people in countries around the world.
~How to arrange study abroad credits outside of university affiliated programs to save money as well as have more choices.
We're all global citizens, whether we realize it or not. Our children's arms are not too small to embrace their citizenry.

That's a truly wonderful and enlightening post ! I hope I'll do the same with my son when he's old enough. Thanks you so much for sharing all these ideas and possibilities !
I love this post. thank you for the wealth of truly great info.
KS "Kaz" Augustin says:
The children's education was one reason we move around a lot. The United States, Australia, now two countries in south-east Asia. I know we are privileged in order to do this but hasten to add that hubby and I also made a LOT of sacrifices in order to enable this nomadic lifestyle. And we're not done yet.
The downside of this is the fear that our kids will end up feeling "rootless" but, then again, I do as well and it barely rates a twinge. The complete upside is that they will realise that there is more that brings humanity together than drives it apart. Past the surface differences, we all long, love and live for basically the same things, no matter where we are on the planet.
Laura Grace Weldon says:
Kaz, it sounds like a wonderful lifestyle. You are giving your children roots in a strong family as well as the real life knowledge that they're at home in the world. Priceless.

'Lost' history of Panama Canal is now found in exhibit at KC's Linda Hall Library
10 abril 2014 por Norberto Barreto Velázquez
The Kansas City Star April 7, 2014
In a year busy with centennials — World War I and Union Station — make room for the Panama Canal. It also has been 100 years since the Atlantic and Pacific oceans were joined by one of the wonders of the modern world
That may seem to have little to do with Kansas City, but the Linda Hall Library has the "lost" papers of the office engineer for the Culebra Cut, the key section of the canal project that cut through the continental divide.
The papers of A.B. Nichols, inaccessible for more than 80 years, are now part of a series of remembrances that will begin with an exhibit opening tonight at the library and culminate in October with a visit by historian David McCullough, author of a book about the canal.
Even McCullough did not have access to the Nichols material, which includes about 1,200 photographs, 1,300 blueprints, 100 maps and more than 100 journals. Before they came to the Linda Hall Library, they were decaying on shelves in New York.
"They were technically lost," said Lisa Browar, the library's president. "Because if something isn't cataloged, the general public or the research public can't find it. And you can't use what you can't find."
To make the centennial observance more fun, a functioning scale model of a Panama Canal lock is being built on the north lawn of the library, 5109 Cherry St., with water and model ships. It is a partnership with the University of Missouri-Kansas City's School of Computing and Engineering.
The Panama Canal is a man-made connection, excruciatingly excavated between the oceans, that greatly cut travel time and shipping costs. It was a huge accomplishment and, along with the First World War, it signaled the beginning of the "American century."
The centennial exhibit includes more than 100 items. Co-curators Eric Ward and Donna Swischer said Nichols' records were meticulous, down to the amounts of dynamite used and the numbers of cubic tons of earth moved.
"He has books that look like Excel spreadsheets for daily excavations, the costs of every part of the operation in tiny little pencil marks, and cross-references to different books," Swischer said.
Nichols, of Philadelphia, was first hired by the Isthmian Canal Commission in 1899 to survey a Nicaraguan route. In 1904, he was assigned to the Panama Canal. In 1906, he was appointed office engineer there and retired in 1914.
"This is first-person history," Browar said. "The artifacts in the Nichols collection represent what one man who was eyewitness to the entire project felt was important to save."
One journal records Nichols' thoughts about an explosion of 44,000 pounds of dynamite on Dec. 12, 1908, that killed 26 people and wounded 49. Speculation about the cause included a chemical reaction with acidic water, but Nichols had his own theory.
"It is practically certain that the powder man in charge of loading the holes was drunk the night before the explosion and he was also seen in a saloon in Bas Obispo drinking about 9 a.m. the day of the explosion," Nichols wrote. "This is probably the sort of chemical action which caused the explosion."
Nichols' papers had been warehoused at the Engineering Societies Library in New York. When it closed in 1995, most of the library's material was moved to the Linda Hall Library, the largest privately funded library devoted to science, engineering and technology.
The library has digitized the Nichols collection for its website, and on Aug. 15, the 100th anniversary of the opening of the canal, will post a digital version of the centennial exhibit.
The canal is undergoing an expansion project.
Alberto Aleman Zubieta, chief executive officer of the Panama Canal Authority from 1996 to 2012, will speak about the project at 7 tonight at the library.
McCullough will speak about the creation of the canal at 7 p.m. Oct. 2 at Unity Temple on the Plaza.
The model lock and the centennial exhibit are free and continue through Dec. 31. The lectures are free, but e-tickets are required.

Another Place is an art installation on the coast. 100 spectacular cast-iron, life-size figures by Anthony Gormley spread across three kilometres of the foreshore and stretch almost one kilometre out to sea.
Having previously been seen in Cuxhaven in Germany, Stavanger in Norway and De Panne in Belgium, 'Another Place' is now a permanent feature in the UK, at Crosby Beach.
Gormley is also the artist of the famous 'Angel of the North' sculpture in Gateshead.
According to Antony Gormley, Another Place harnesses the ebb and flow of the tide to explore man's relationship with nature.
He explains: The seaside is a good place to do this. Here time is tested by tide, architecture by the elements and the prevalence of sky seems to question the earth's substance. In this work human life is tested against planetary time. This sculpture exposes to light and time the nakedness of a particular and peculiar body. It is no hero, no ideal, just the industrially reproduced body of a middle-aged man trying to remain standing and trying to breathe, facing a horizon busy with ships moving materials and manufactured things around the planet.
Please note - Crosby beach is a non-bathing beach with areas of soft sand and mud and a risk of changing tides. Visitors should stay within 50 metres of the promenade at all tides and not attempt to walk out to the furthest figures.

\section{Introduction}

The need for physics beyond the Standard Model (SM) arises from experimental evidence of at least
three phenomena with no support within the SM framework: neutrino masses, dark matter (DM) and the
matter--antimatter asymmetry. Along this lines, Ernest Ma \cite{Ma2006} proposed the scotogenic
model, that radiatively generates neutrino masses and has a viable DM candidate. On the other hand,
the matter--antimatter asymmetry can be explained from two general approaches: baryogenesis via
leptogenesis \cite{Strumia2006} and electroweak baryogenesis (EWB) \cite{Morrissey2012}. Sakharov
\cite{Sakharov:1967dj} set three conditions for any model that attempts to explain the baryon
asymmetry: {\it i)} baryon number violation, {\it ii)} CP violation and {\it iii)} departure from
thermal equilibrium. In this work we will only focus on the third condition. Within EWB, the
departure from equilibrium is achieved through a strong first--order electroweak phase
transition\footnote{This means an energetic barrier between two minimum at different values of the
vacuum expectation value ({\it vev}).} (EWPT) and the baryon number preservation condition (BNPC) of
the effective scalar potential. Thus, the aim of this work is to show how is the behaviour of the
scalar potential of the scotogenic model when quantum and thermal corrections are taken into
account; in particular, when the Yukawa couplings leading to neutrino masses are non negligible.

\section{The model and thermal corrections}
\label{model}
The scotogenic model is an extension of the SM with a second Higgs doublet $\Phi$, three
right-handed neutrinos, $N_i$ ($i=1,2,3$), and a $Z_2$ symmetry such that the SM fields
are even and the new fields are odd. The right--handed neutrino interactions with SM particles are
given by:
\begin{eqnarray}
\mathcal{L}_{int} = -h_{ij} \overline{N_R^i} \tilde{\Phi}^{\dagger} \ell^j_L  + \text{h.c.}
\quad \text{($\tilde{\Phi}=i\sigma_2 \Phi^*$)}\label{int-lag}.
\end{eqnarray}
On the other side, the scalar interactions of the model can be expressed via the scalar potential
\cite{Blinov:2015vma}:
\begin{eqnarray}
 V_0 &= &\mu^2_1|H|^2 + \mu^2_2|\Phi|^2 + \lambda_1 |H|^4 + \lambda_2 |\Phi|^4  +
\lambda_3 |H|^2|\Phi|^2 +\lambda_4 |H^{\dagger}\Phi|^2  \nonumber \\
&+& \frac{\lambda_5}{2}\left[(H^{\dagger}\Phi)^2 + \text{ h.c.}\right]\label{scalar_pot-SCT},
\end{eqnarray}
where the doublets are
\begin{equation}
 \label{dobletes-SCT}
H = \begin{pmatrix} G^{\pm} \\ \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(v+h+iG^0)
\end{pmatrix}, \quad
\Phi = \begin{pmatrix} H^{\pm} \\ \frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(\phi + H^0+iA^0)
\end{pmatrix},
\end{equation}
being $v$ and $\phi$ the {vev} of $H$ and $\Phi$, respectively, and $H^0$ is the DM candidate (for
this work). In the most DM models, the $Z_2$ symmetry remains unbroken to ensure stability of the
DM
candidate. In this work, we will relax that condition and allow $Z_2$ can develop a {\it vev}.

\subsection*{The effective potential and thermal corrections}
The thermal corrections are included through the effective scalar potential:
\begin{equation}
\label{eff-pot-SCT}
 V_{eff}(v,\phi,T) = V_0 + V_1(v,\phi) + V_T(v,\phi, T),
\end{equation}
where $V_0$ is the tree level scalar potential, $V_1(v,\phi)$ is the one loop correction to
(\ref{scalar_pot-SCT}) at zero--temperature (Coleman--Weinberg potential) and  $V_T(v,\phi, T)$
represents the thermal and ring contributions \cite{Espinosa2007}:
\begin{equation}
 \label{cw_pot-SCT}
 V_1(v,\phi) = \sum_{i\,={\text{ all fields}}}\frac{n_i m_i^4(v,\phi)}{64\pi^2}\left[
\ln{\frac{m^2_i(v,\phi)}{Q^2}} -
c_i\right],
\end{equation}
\begin{eqnarray}
 \label{t-contri-SCT}
 V_T(v,\phi, T) &=& \frac{T^4}{2\pi^2}\left\{\sum_{B} n_i
J_B\left[\frac{m_i^2(v,\phi)}{T^2}\right]+\sum_{F}
 n_i J_F\left[\frac{m_i^2(v,\phi)}{T^2}\right]\right\} \nonumber \\
 &+& \sum_{i\,={\text{ all fields}}}
\frac{T}{12\pi}\left(\frac{1+\varepsilon}{2}\right)n_i\left\{\left[m_i^2(v,\phi)\right]^3
-\left[m_i^2(v,\phi,T)\right]^3\right\},
\end{eqnarray}
where $B$ stands for scalars and bosons, and $F$ for fermions. The thermal functions are
expressed as:
\begin{equation}
 J_B[y^2]=\int_0^{\infty} dx\
x^2\log\left[1-e^{-\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}\right],
\quad J_F[y^2]=\int_0^{\infty} dx\
x^2\log\left[1+e^{-\sqrt{x^2+y^2}}\right].
\end{equation}
In this case, $n_i$ are \cite{Blinov:2015vma} $n_Z=3$, $n_W=6$, $n_t=-12$, $n_h=1$, $n_{G^0}=1$,
$n_{G^{\pm}}=2$, $n_{H^{\pm}}=2$, $n_{H^0}=1$, and $n_{A^0}=1$. The $c_i$ coefficients
are established by the nature of the fields: $3/2$ for scalars and fermions and  $5/6$ for gauge
bosons. The factor $\varepsilon$ is $1$ for bosons and $-1$ for fermions\footnote{Note that for
fermions the last term of (\ref{t-contri-SCT}) vanishes, thus there is not ring contribution.}, and
$Q$ is the renormalization scale.
\subsection*{Masses of the model}
The field dependent masses, $m_i$, are determined by a diagonalization process of the following
matrices
\cite{Blinov:2015vma}:
\begin{eqnarray}
M^2_h  = \begin{pmatrix}
\mu_1^2 + 3\lambda_1 v^2+ \lambda_L \phi^2 & 2\lambda_L \phi v \\
 2\lambda_L \phi v & \mu_2^2 + 3\lambda_2 \phi^2 + \lambda_L v^2
\end{pmatrix} \label{eq:CPEvenMass}, \quad
M^2_A  = \begin{pmatrix}
\mu_1^2 + \lambda_1 v^2+ \lambda_S \phi^2 & \lambda_5 \phi v \\
 \lambda_5 \phi v & \mu_2^2 + \lambda_2 \phi^2 + \lambda_S v^2
\end{pmatrix}, \label{eq:CPOddMass}\nonumber
\end{eqnarray}
\begin{eqnarray}
M^2_\pm =\begin{pmatrix}
\mu_1^2 + \lambda_1 v^2+ \frac{1}{2}\lambda_3 \phi^2 & \frac{1}{2}(\lambda_5+\lambda_4) \phi v \\
\frac{1}{2}(\lambda_5+\lambda_4) \phi v & \mu_2^2 + \lambda_2 \phi^2 + \frac{1}{2}\lambda_3 v^2
\end{pmatrix},
\label{eq:ChargedMass}
\end{eqnarray}
with $\lambda_L = (\lambda_3+\lambda_4+\lambda_5)/2$ and $\lambda_S =
(\lambda_3+\lambda_4-\lambda_5)/2$. For the thermal corrections, the masses resulting from the
diagonalization process of (\ref{eq:CPEvenMass}) contain the $\mu_i$ parameters. Thus,
the thermal corrections require that $\mu^2_i \longrightarrow \mu^2_i + c_iT^2$
\cite{Blinov:2015vma,Merle2015}, where
\begin{equation}
\label{c1t}
 c_1 = \frac{1}{8} g^2 + \frac{1}{16}(g^2 + g^{\prime 2}) + \frac{1}{2}\lambda_1
+ \frac{1}{12}(\lambda_L + \lambda_S)+ \frac{1}{12}\lambda_3
+ \frac{1}{4} y_t^2, \quad \text{(SM fields)}
\end{equation}
\begin{equation}
\label{c2t}
 c_2 = \frac{1}{8} g^2 + \frac{1}{16}(g^2 + g^{\prime 2}) + \frac{1}{2}\lambda_2
+ \frac{1}{12}(\lambda_L + \lambda_S+ \lambda_3)+\frac{9}{12}h^2_{\nu}. \quad \text{(new fields)}
\end{equation}
being $g$ and $g'$ the electroweak couplings, $y_t$ the Yukawa top coupling and $h_{\nu}$ are given
by
\begin{equation}
 \label{yukas}
 h_{\nu} = \frac{1}{3} \sqrt{\sum_{i,j}|h_{ij}|^2}.
\end{equation}
Note that the $h_{\nu}$ couplings contribute to the thermal masses of the new fields (see equation
(\ref{c2t})) in opposition to the inert double model (IDM) case \cite{Blinov:2015vma}. For gauge
bosons, only longitudinal components get thermal masses
given by
the eigenvalues of
\begin{equation}
\label{gauge-matrix}
\begin{pmatrix}
\frac{1}{4}(v^2 + \phi^2)g^2 +2 g^2 T^2  & -\frac{1}{4}(v^2 + \phi^2)g g^\prime \\
-\frac{1}{4}(v^2 + \phi^2)g g^\prime & \frac{1}{4}(v^2 + \phi^2)g^{\prime 2}+2 g^{\prime 2} T^2
\end{pmatrix},
\end{equation}
while for $W$ the contribution is $m^2_{W_l} = m^2_{W_l}(v,\phi) + 2g^2T^2.$

\section{Numerical analysis and results}
\label{results}
For numerical analysis the masses and couplings are fixed as follows: $m_{H^0} = 66$ GeV (low DM
mass regime), $m_{H^{\pm}}$ and $m_{A^0}$ greater than $200$ GeV (with $m_{H^{\pm}}=m_{A^0}$),
$\lambda_L = \lambda_2 = 0.01$ and $h_{\nu} = 0.31,1.0,1.73$. The scale $Q$ is fixed at electroweak
symmetry breaking scale, that is $Q= 246.22$ GeV.
\subsection*{Limits for $m_{H^\pm},m_{A^0}$ masses}
At zero temperature, the effective scalar potential of the model (\ref{eff-pot-SCT}) must exhibit
the usual behaviour of the SM, i.e., the global minimum of the system must be associated with the
electroweak symmetry breaking. This imposes limits on the masses of $m_{H^\pm}$ and $m_{A^0}$.
 \begin{figure}[h!]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=.45\linewidth]{both-vevs-SCT-y-01-Eff-Pot-T0-H066-Hpm460}
\includegraphics[width=.45\linewidth]{both-vevs-SCT-y-01-Eff-Pot-T0-H066-Hpm470}
\\[\baselineskip
\includegraphics[width=.45\linewidth]{both-vevs-SCT-y-01-Eff-Pot-T0-H066-Hpm480}
\includegraphics[width=.45\linewidth]{both-vevs-SCT-y-01-Eff-Pot-T0-H066-Hpm490}
 \caption{Effective potential behaviour at $T=0$ GeV when $m_{H^0} = 66$ GeV and different values
of $m_{H^\pm}=m_{A^0}$. The red line indicates $V_{eff}(\varphi) = V_{eff}(v,0,0)$ and black line
indicates $V_{eff}(\varphi) = V_{eff}(0,\phi,0)$.}
 \label{H066-Hpmdiff}
 \end{figure}
As we can see in Figure \ref{H066-Hpmdiff}, the behaviour of $V_{eff}(v,\phi,0)$ is related with
the values of $m_{H^\pm}$ and $m_{A^0}$. For $m_{H^\pm}=m_{A^0}=460$ GeV, the effective potential
$V_{eff}(v,0,0)$ (red line in Figure \ref{H066-Hpmdiff}) have a deeper global minimum respect
$V_{eff}(0,\phi,0)$ (black line in Figure \ref{H066-Hpmdiff}). Thus the phenomenology of the model
is associated to SM phenomenology. As the value of the masses increases, this global minimum begins
to rise while $V_{eff}(0,\phi,0)$ begins to sink. However, when $m_{H^\pm}= m_{A^0} =
490$ GeV, the global minimum of the effective potential is lost with the $Z_2$ symmetry
breaking, which cannot be possible because the SM phenomenology. So, in order to
preserve the electroweak symmetry breaking, the masses of $m_{H^\pm}$ and
$m_{A^0}$ GeV
are set at 460 GeV hereafter.
\subsection*{EWPT}
One of the main conditions needed to have a strong first-order EWPT is the BNPC, which requires that
$ R \equiv v_C/T_C >1,$  \cite{Blinov:2015vma}, where the critical temperature $T_C$ is the
temperature at which the potential (\ref{eff-pot-SCT}) has two degenerate minima (for different
values of the SM {\it vev}), and $v_C$ is the non-zero {\it vev} of the broken phase at the critical
temperature. For $m_{H^\pm}= m_{A^0} = 460$ GeV and $h_{\nu}=0.31$, the effective potential exhibits
a strong first--order EWPT at a critical temperature of $T_C= 90.8$ GeV when $v_C = 242.92$ GeV
(and therefore $R=2.67$), as it is shown in left panel of Figure \ref{temp-evolution} (red solid
line).
\begin{figure}[h!]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=.47\linewidth]{evolution-temp-H066-Hpm460}
\includegraphics[width=.47\linewidth]{yukawas-Tnq0}
 \caption{Left: effective potential behaviour for different temperature values and $h_{\nu}=0.31$.
The solid lines indicate $V_{eff}(\varphi) = V_{eff}(v,0,T)$ and the dashed lines indicate
$V_{eff}(\varphi) = V_{eff}(0,\phi,T)$. Right: effective potential behaviour at $T=90.8$
GeV, $m_{H^0}= 66$ GeV and $m_{H^\pm}= m_{A^0} = 460$ GeV for different values of $h_{\nu}$.}
 \label{temp-evolution}
 \end{figure}
The interesting thing about this benchmark point is that the $Z_2$ symmetry is not affected by the
thermal corrections and never develops a second minimum deeper than the SM one. Therefore, the
DM candidate is still stable.
\subsection*{Impact of the Yukawas on the effective potential}
Another interesting aspect is the dependence of the effective potential with the Yukawa couplings
$h_{\nu}$. From the right panel of Figure \ref{temp-evolution}, it is clear that the strong
first--oder EWPT only occurs when the Yukawa couplings are set to $h_{\nu}= 0.31$. Moreover, we
found that for $h_{\nu}=1.0$ the EWPT is still strong and first order but with a higher critical
temperature $T'_C=129.8$ GeV at $v'_C= 244.3$ GeV ($R'=1.89$). Whereas for $h_{\nu}= 1.73$, the
behaviour of the scalar effective potential changes and therefore it is not possible to have strong
first--order EWPT.

\section{Conclusions}
\label{conclude}

The scotogenic model allows us to establish the minimum conditions to explain two of the phenomena
that the SM is not able to explain given the current data. However, may have one of the
requirements to address a third phenomena: the baryon asymmetry. In this work we have studied the
EWPT and BNPC in the scotogenic model through the effective scalar potential. Taking into account
only the Coleman--Weinberg potential ($T=0$), we can set a limit of
$m_{H^\pm}=m_{A^0} = 460$ GeV for the validity of SM. When the thermal corrections of the effective
potential and masses of the fields are considered, the Yukawa coupling values have a strong impact
on the behaviour of the effective potential. When the DM candidate has a mass of $m_{H^0}= 66$ GeV,
$m_{H^\pm}= m_{A^0} = 460$, and $h_{\nu}= 0.31$, the effective potential exhibits a strong
first--order EWPT and the BNPC is satisfied. However, for the same benchmark point and larger
values of $h_{\nu}$, the strong first--order EWPT and BNPC are only present when $h_{\nu}= 1.0$ for
a critical temperature such that $T'_C>T_C$ (and $R'< R$). Consequently, a strong first--order EWPT
will be present only if $h_{\nu}\leqslant 1.0$ for the scotogenic model.

The former Oasis frontman has found immense success with his debut solo album 'As You Were' after its release earlier this month, and after selling out an extensive arena tour of the UK, he's now announced he will headline a huge outdoor event at the London park in June 2018.
Liam, 45, will be the main event at the mini-festival, which will see a host of talent take to two stages throughout the day on June 29 next year.
As of the time of writing, no other acts have been announced for the one-day event, though a press release confirms the full line up will be revealed within the coming months.
Tickets for the Finsbury Park show will go on sale from 9am on Friday (27.10.17) and will set fans back £52.50 plus a booking fee.
Despite his success as a solo artist - which saw him sell over 100,000 tickets to his UK tour in a single morning - the 'Wall of Glass' hitmaker previously insisted he ''never'' wanted to pursue a solo career, and would much rather still be in a band, preferably Oasis, who split in 2009.
He said: ''I never really wanted to go solo. I still find it all a bit peculiar, having my name above the door, even though that's just the way it's got to be.
''But going solo ... I still find it a bit odd. I'd much prefer to be in a band. I'd much prefer being in Oasis. I liked having the lads around and having a laugh. But that's not to be, so solo it is.
''To go back and start another band, we've done that with [former band] Beady Eye, and it's always going to get compared to Oasis. I don't fancy that. And at the time, going around trying to get guitarists and drummers, I just wasn't in the headspace for it.''
Liam Gallagher's UK tour dates:
30th - Belfast, The SSE Arena
1st - Newcastle, Metro Radio Arena
3rd - Leeds, First Direct Arena
4th - Glasgow, The SSE Hydro
6th - Plymouth, Pavilions
7th - London, Alexandra Palace

European Parliament resolution on Syria: the case of Muhannad Al Hassani
B7‑0075/2009
The European Parliament,
- having regard to the Euro-Mediterranean Agreement, of which the EU and Syria are parties;

- having regard to its previous resolutions on Syria and Middle-East;
- having regard to Rule 122(5) of its Rules of Procedure;
A. whereas Mr Muhannad Al Hassani, a Syrian human rights lawyer, President of the Syrian Human Rights Organisation (SHRO), who had regularly carried out observations of trials before the Supreme State Security Court, was arrested on 28 July 2009 due to his activities in the area of human rights, and his defence of general liberties and human rights;
B. whereas Muhannad Al Hassani, formally charged with offences of "weakening national sentiments," and for "spreading false news, facing up to 15 years in prison, was referred to the Justice Palace in Damascus, where he was interrogated and formally charged in a closed session in which his lawyer was not allowed access;
C. whereas on 18 and 25 August 2009 Muhannad Al Hassani was brought before a special correction council of the Bar Association in Damascus which has initiated a misconduct case against him, accusing Muhannad Al Hassani for heading an unauthorised organisation, attending sessions of the Supreme State Security Court without having power of attorney and disseminating false and exaggerated information that could harm the State;
D. whereas Mr. Muhannad Al Hassani had been interrogated on several occasions before the arrest, questioned for his defence of political detainees and for the work of his SHRO organization which monitors and publicizes human rights violations committed by the Syrian authorities;

Thank you for opening up this discussion. I find your blogs so insightful!
Why can't all the Buddhas take care of suffering? It's like asking why they allow suffering to begin with. Actually, I believe that the Buddhas CAN take away our suffering right away but only if we let them. My suffering is often one of the things that I am most attached to. It is often what defines me. If I give up MY suffering then I give up the fear I cling to, hence the ground beneath my feet. Then what? Fly away in a cloud of bliss and emptiness? No thank you, speaks my fear. I'm staying put right here squarely in my familiar misery.
I love the expression "Abandon all hope, abandon all fear". The fact is, no force outside of ourselves can MAKE us do anything. Any married person can tell you that!
Luna, is it actually possible to exhaust samsara for all living beings? We have existed since beginningless time; a number so great it's countless, yet samsara continues to burn ever so brightly, and suffering beings are still innumerable. How can it ever possibly end for every single last living being?

Graham Lee's "Why is programming so hard?" made me think about how I started programming and whether I'd be coding now if I was twelve.
When I began, I had a Sinclair Spectrum. Back then, home computers booted into a programming language (BASIC typically) and to do anything you needed to know at least one command. To be fair, even then many people didn't get beyond J, Symbol Shift-P, Symbol Shift-P ('LOAD ""', the command used to load a program from tape).
My first memory of using a Spectrum is trying to type in a program from the manual. This was harder than it sounds as the Spectrum had a weird-and-wonderful command entry system in lieu of a lexer in the BASIC interpreter. I can't even remember if I got it working, but I was hooked.
I still played games, but I occasionally looked at something and thought "how do they do that?" I'd then try to replicate it. Over time I'd spend more time coding and less gaming. I'd also read magazines and type in code from books and magazines. Then as now, working with other peoples code can be very instructive.
I think three things — at least — were appealing at the time.
First, I had one. I guess that sounds obvious but even a few years earlier that wouldn't have been a given. Prior to my interest in computers, I was fascinated by cars. I could identify all the models on sight, memorised the statistics and could tell you that a new Ford Fiesta had terrible handling. But I didn't really know any of the basics about actually driving as it would be another six years before I could get a provisional licence and start taking lessons. The possibility of owning a car was even more remote (I've still never owned one!). There's a dramatic difference between reading about something and actually using it.
Secondly, it was possible to pretty much understand the whole machine, from the hardware right up to the BASIC interpreter. I didn't, of course, but nothing seemed out of reach. I started in BASIC but I also played with Z80 assembler. The Spectrum was a simple enough machine that working at that level exposed a lot of what was happening with the hardware — interrupts, memory mapped hardware — even without breaking out a soldering iron.
There was a learning curve but I thought that everything was understandable and figured that I could do even the hard stuff. This really spurred me on, made me try things and play around. There is no better way of learning; nothing kills my enthusiasm more than thinking I can't solve a problem.
Fast forward to today and, while most people own a computer, the machines are not fully understandable and the state of the art seems distant and impossible for a mere mortal to achieve.
Look at a game that appears as simple as Monument Valley. It doesn't take long to realise that it's not that simple. Where would you even start? What would you need to understand just to put a few of your own pixels on screen?
I fear that I would get overwhelmed by the amount that I didn't know — and possibly would never know — before I got interested enough to keep going.
So where is the "in" to programming these days?
It's easy to get hung up on the programming language or environment, but I don't think that's the key. If it's interesting people will put in the time to get past those kinds of obstacles. (Whether they should need to or not is another question.) Instead, we need projects that can start small and gradually get more complex, and they have to be in environments that the user understands, and the results need to look immediately impressive or be immediately useful.
This is why I don't think learning to code in, say, Python is likely to be compelling for many people. It is programming, but few people use command lines any more and the results don't look impressive. Printing the numbers from one to ten? Yawn.
I have heard about (but have no experience of) building "mods" for Minecraft. Much as I did, people play the game and get hooked. Rather than trying to replicate features, they try to modify them or enhance them.
Once people have left academia, the most popular method of starting programming that I've seen has been Excel. People start building complex spreadsheets, then add a few macros and then begin playing around with VBA. At each stage they can do a little more than they could before and at each stage it's useful.
So, back to the original question: would I be programming now if I was twelve? I think the most likely route would be through something like Minecraft, but I never got hooked on anything more complicated than Bomb Jack so I have to think the answer would be no. For my own sanity I probably should think too hard whether or not that's a good thing.


Well, this is the time of year when the colour gurus at Pantone unleash their colour of the year for the new year.
For 2015 they have chosen Marsala, Pantone 18-1438.
The reports over the Internet are that this year, Pantone has come up with a colour that's a bit of a dud. Pantone refers to the colour as an earthy red wine – people on the social media sites seem to have other ideas, many not very flattering.
The Pantone site obviously has lots of info on the newly anointed colour – check it out.
Too much LucisArt? From the Pantone site – spot the Marsala!
I find the photos a little creepy looking, reminds me of when I used to use the LucisArt Photoshop plugin to get a similar effect.
Personally, if I was going to choose a red wine type colour as my Colour of the Year, I'd go with the burgundy used on our ID Technology polo shirts. Now there's a colour for you!
Want to read an entertaining review of Pantone's choice? Your in luck; there's some good reading over at The Atlantic's site.
What do you think? Do you agree with Pantone that 18-1438 is a good choice for 2015, or are you in the "it's a bit yucky" camp?
Oh, LucisArt is still one of my favorite plugins.
If all this Colour of 2015 news has made you want to print some Marsala toned labels (and why wouldn't it?) may, I suggest our Memjet powered VP700 colour label printer?

I used the paper towel method for the first time to pop this little bean and to my surprise(not really) It Worked!
I have never tried this method and have always just thrown the little girls into the dirt and went about my day but I wanted to see if this method really worked well and I am pleasantly surprised by it thus far as the seed germed in less than 24 hours. Let us see how it fairs in some soil.
Just popped its little head out from beneath the soil this morning. Looks pretty healthy so far. So guess I know what all the hype is about now in regards to the paper towel method.
Well, this is my second GDP grow. I made a F***ton of mistakes the last go around so this time I am pretty confident I will manage much better results. As always I shall keep yall updated.

From affordable restaurants to classy buffets, Colorado has a brunch spot to not only please your budget but also your appetite. Spend your next Sunday morning at these 10 best brunch spots in in the Centennial State.
The Buff has a great selection of breakfast and brunch foods that is sure to please everyone. When it comes to food, try the Buff's skillets, pancakes, huevos rancheros, benedicts or simply bacon and eggs. But a good brunch wouldn't be complete with a good drink. There is a variety of Bloody Mary options along with mimosas and a tequila sunrise. These drinks are only 99 cents when purchased with an entree too. If you want a non-alcoholic beverage, try the "White Buffalo" coffee drink, which is a white mocha made with white Swiss chocolate.
For a casual yet classy brunch, head to Element 47 at the top-notch Aspen hotel the Little Nell. Brunch is served daily here and some brunch menu items stay on the menu later than the brunch hours. A dish to not miss is the lemon ricotta pancakes. For a savory brunch dish, try an omelet made with mushrooms, kale and goat cheese.
For reasonable prices and a cozy atmosphere, have brunch at Columbine Cafe. Enjoy a mimosa or a Bloody Mary while you sit out on the patio. The best thing about Columbine Cafe is the large menu, which is sure to please even picky eaters. The "Breck Scramble" is a local favorite dish, and the biscuits and gravy are definitely delicious and filling. This cafe is known for its corned beef hash. Since this a popular brunch spot, expect a wait during the weekends or during ski season.
A list about brunch wouldn't be complete without mentioning Snooze. With multiple locations in the state, this Colorado-based chain is a popular spot for breakfast and brunch. Find egg dishes made all kinds of ways or sweet dishes with perfectly flavored pancakes. Snooze offers filling options or even a healthy section for those wanting a lighter brunch choice. The Breakfast Pot Pie is a unique yet popular breakfast choice or try the "Chile Verde Benny," which is a benedict with a southwest kick. And of course, Snooze also offers a variety of brunch cocktails.

Lake Terrace, a restaurant inside the Broadmoor hotel, serves up a fabulous brunch on Sundays. Breakfast is served on other days of the week but only till 11 a.m. Now this brunch hotspot is not necessarily the most affordable option, therefore save brunch at Lake Terrace for a special occasion. The menu has some variety from the traditional Denver omelet to freshly squeezed juices.
For a Sunday brunch, Ellyngton's at the Brown Palace hosts a brunch called the Dom Perignon Champagne Brunch. Enjoy champagne and a brunch buffet with menu options like lemon poppy waffles or a lobster scramble.
This charming Denver brunch spot has a home cooked menu with classic favorites like chicken and waffles or eggs benedict.
