eccentration 

as a compliment of concentration. in eccentration, one uses the peripheral vision as a " focal field ". the eccentrationist or eccentrator gazes into the distance with no fixed-point on which to focus. as such, he / she becomes aware of everything happening in the periphery and can use infinitum as the distraction...as a compliment to contraction.
many people choose to exercise / stretch in front of a mirror. this allows the practitioner to " focus " on their reflection and make judgements and corrections based on their evaluation. if we choose to gaze into the distance ( eccentration, be it 10 feet or 10 miles ) and NOT focus, we have only our periphery to shape our field of vision. and we have only our proprioception to gauge our alignment / progress. some yogic traditions hold that attachment to forms / things is the source of suffering. forms and things become indescernable when we " eccentrate ".

Utility beer 

Utility beer is the beer you keep around for the day-to-day moments when beer is a necessity to assist in pedestrian activities (golf, plumbing, yardwork, babysitting, staff meetings, Zoom calls). For the beer snob it is the beer you save for neighbors when they drop in at 3 p.m. on a Tuesday. It is differentiated from the actual high-end beer you save for special events, holidays, and special tastings.
