All expenses paid. The company plans to do a similar event again next year. Recession? What recession? Thrillist is among dozens of e-mail newsletters that are proving there are riches to be made in online niches. When Ben Lerer, 27, and cofounder Adam Rich, 28, were just launching their daily missives for men three years ago, Thrillist and other companies like it were dismissed as so Web 1.0. After all, they didn’t sport profiles or post blogs or let users upload pictures. It was the social media sites that were attracting all of the attention and high valuations. E-mail newsletters - in which subscribers opt in to receive one e-mail a day - were, well, boring. But as Facebook, MySpace (NWS, Fortune 500) and other social networking titans have struggled to turn a profit, the e-mail newsletter biz has been raking it in.

If you quiz a home brewer about the most best components in homebrew kits for their pastime, the most typical answers you'd uncover would be: the fermenter, ingredients (such as hops, malt syrup, and yeast), and then an item called a hydrometer. What Is A Hydrometer? A hydrometer is a tool for determining the density or "specific gravity" of a liquid. You use the hydrometer to see how heavy (the specific gravity) the brewed liquid is compared to everyday water. The heaviness of the brew is caused by how much sugar has been used by the yeast during the fermentation growth. You want to learn what this reading is to tell when your homebrew is fully fermented. And once this has occurred, you can then bottle the brew and shortly thereafter test drinking what you have made. How Do You Benefit From A Hydrometer? The process is very easy, and doesn't take long to understand. To begin with, fill a mason jar (or anything similar with vertical sides) 2/3 full of water. Make sure this water is close to 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Next, place the hydrometer into the water.
