If you find yourself living life at a rapid pace, and in need of slowing things down, enjoying a good cup of coffee can offer a great start.Brew some coffee. Enjoy the aroma. Take a seat.

The 49ers finally started taking my advice.After years of doing the dumb thing and drafting in the first and second rounds, the Niners traded away all those early picks and are solely focused on the good stuff: late-round picks only nerds like me care about.Yes, I’m talking about the picks they let a zoo animal, a face-painted fan, or the owner’s third cousin twice removed announce on TV — if the pick is announced at all. AKA, the good stuff.Thing is, the Niners might have overdone it on all those Day 2 and Day 3 picks. With seven compensatory selections, the Niners boast 11 picks in this week’s draft, which starts Thursday in Kansas City.That’s too many picks, so I traded away a bunch of them in my Niners’ Mock Draft.So here you go, a bunch of names you probably don’t know (good for you) with numbers attached. I watched all these players, so you don’t have to, and if I get even one of these picks right, I expect a parade to be thrown in my ...Q&A: The “King” of cocktail bitters talks foraging ingredients in West Marin

Lawrence Batterton is a medicinal herbalist by trade who a decade ago stumbled, quite successfully, into the bitters business.“I started making cocktail bitters for holiday gifts. I’d play around with different recipes, like ‘Winter Blend’ or ‘Silk Road,’ type up my own labels and give them away to people like Christmas cookies.”His pungent creations – twice as strong as bar versions, thanks to his herbalist training – got such a popular reception that in 2017 he founded King Floyd’s Bar Provisions. The Novato-based company kicked off with “Aromatic Bitters,” an original recipe with 10 spices and herbs like gentian, cacao and black walnut. It’s since grown a nationally distributed product line with “Green Chili” and “Scorched Pear and Ginger” bitters, flavored salts and sugars, and deals with Williams-Sonoma and New York celebrity bartender Sother Teague.Batterton, the CEO and self-titled “chief bottle washer” of King Floyd’s, recently...We Build The Wall founder imprisoned for fraud

The Walt Disney Company filed suit on Wednesday in federal court against Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.The suit comes almost exactly a year after DeSantis first lashed out at the entertainment giant for pausing political donations and criticizing the governor’s since-enacted controversial bill — dubbed “Don’t Say Gay” by opponents — that bans teaching sexual orientation or gender identity to certain students. Disney claims that DeSantis weaponized Florida’s government by revoking its long-held special tax status immediately after it came out against the the governor’s policy.“Maybe he’s for free speech as long as it’s speech he likes.”Though First Amendment retaliation suits are notoriously difficult to prove in court, lawyers said that Disney may have an unusually strong case.“I find it hard to see how you can argue that you’re for free speech when you punish a corporation for their political views or you’re banning books,” said Catherine Cameron, a professor who teach...Latest news
