Bloom is a fast, light-weight, cross-platform procedural graphics editor that lets you tweak any action you have ever performed - organized by layer. Beautifying images is a somewhat common practice, but you need to have the right tools at hand if you want to optimize your work. Bloom is an OS X image processor that works with multiple layers in order to provide non-destructive processing solutions. This way, you can make use of the plethora of available tools while knowing that you can adjust their effect later on without having to redo the entire process.
Bloom 1.0.493 | MacOSX | 126.6 MB
- Bloom seamlessly integrates both vector and raster editing, automatically converting between the two as necessary. This not only makes it extremely versatile and suitable for any taks from interface design to photo retouching, but also lets you apply purely raster effects and filters to vector shapes without losing any vector data.
- Bloom is the first editor to allow true non-destructive editing. Every filter, effect, brush stroke or vector edit you apply is stored separately, and nothing is baked in. This allows you to come back to anything you've done in the past and adjust it - without redoing all of the subsequent work. Even brush strokes are editable after you've drawn them!
- Bloom is a purely 16-bit per channel application. Everything, including images, shape colors, masks, and any other color data is stored with 16 bits per channel. This means you never lose precision and color accuracy, allowing for the most vibrant and precise images to be created.
- Unlike many other apps that claim to import Adobe Photoshop PSD file, yet import minimal information, Bloom imports practically everything. Not only does Bloom's PSD importer support layers and groups, it also imports masks on both of them, layer blending modes, and even layer blending effects - on both layers and groups!
- Bloom features a full suite of blending effects, including drop shadows, inner and outer glows, stroking, inner shadows, and bevelling. These versatile effects allow you to easily edit layer shapes without changing layer style, as well as help with compatibility with other applications.
- Bloom features excellent digital tablet support, recoginizing the drawing vs. the eraser tip of the brush, pen pressure, and scene scrolling with the digital pen alone. Brush settings also support ability to control aspects such as opacity, size, and any other setting with pen pressure - all customizable by you.

National Geographic: Stellar sprinklers may help irrigate cosmos, study suggests.
Seven hundred and fifty light-years from Earth, a young, sunlike star has been found with jets that blast epic quantities of water into interstellar space, shooting out droplets that move faster than a speeding bullet.
The discovery suggests that protostars may be seeding the universe with water. These stellar embryos shoot jets of material from their north and south poles as their growth is fed by infalling dust that circles the bodies in vast disks.
"If we picture these jets as giant hoses and the water droplets as bullets, the amount shooting out equals a hundred million times the water flowing through the Amazon River every second," said Lars Kristensen, a postdoctoral astronomer at Leiden University in the Netherlands.
"We are talking about velocities reaching 200,000 kilometers [124,000 miles] per hour, which is about 80 times faster than bullets flying out of a machine gun," said Kristensen, lead author of the new study detailing the discovery, which has been accepted for publication in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics.

Wow, that's absolutely amazing!

Zimbabwe's opposition Movement for Democratic Change said Friday that it is withdrawing a court challenge over disputed election results that gave long-time President Robert Mugabe a commanding victory, saying it did not believe it would get a fair hearing.
The party said in a document filed at the Constitutional Court that it will not participate in a hearing scheduled Saturday and asked that the nine judges of the highest court be advised of the withdrawal. Outgoing Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangirai is a leader of the opposition group.
By late Friday evening, the MDC had not received another court judgment on its demands for the release of crucial election material by the state Election Commission. It believes the material will help it corroborate claims that up to 1 million eligible voters were kept from voting and that ballots were cast in the names of dead people.
Nelson Chamisa, the fourth-ranking party official, told The Associated Press that it was impossible to proceed with Saturday's hearing without full information and evidence it had sought from election authorities.
"There is no value in us going to the courts without the proof that is beyond doubt," he said.
Attorney Chris Mhike said even if a last minute ruling was made to force the election body to release the material sought, it left no time for an analysis of voting figures. Chamisa said without the proof it sought from the election body, Saturday's challenge would likely be thrown out, undermining the opposition's position.
"We are refusing to give Mugabe legitimacy through his courts," he said.
After violent and disputed elections in 2008, Mugabe was forced by regional leaders to form a shaky power-sharing coalition with Tsvangirai. But the 89-year-old Mugabe was said to have garnered 61 percent of the presidential vote to Tsvangirai's 34 percent in the July 31 election.
The longtime president has traditionally appointed Zimbabwe's judges and has long been accused of packing the judiciary with his sympathizers.
Earlier Friday, MDC party spokesman Douglas Mwonzora said the Constitutional Court, made up of Mugabe's loyalist judges, had barred cross-examination of witnesses that would expose voting irregularities.
Mugabe's party has denied claims of vote rigging. The president said in a national address on Monday the outcome is irreversible and the losers must accept defeat.
But Tsvangirai has described the elections as "a monumental fraud," and Mwonzora said the opposition party was "baffled" by the reluctance of election officials to make available the requested material, even after regional and African mediators said polling day itself was peaceful and fair.
"If the elections were free and fair, why should the officials stop people accessing the material?' he said.
The state Electoral Commission on Aug. 8 admitted to some mistakes in the elections but claimed they were not enough to sway Mugabe's victory. It said nearly 305,000 people were turned away from voting stations and another 207,000 were given assistance by polling officials to cast ballots.
Tsvangirai's party says the figures "are much higher" than those given by the electoral body.
In his original court papers, Tsvangirai said he did not receive voters' lists to check on the accuracy of their contents. Electoral laws require the lists to be distributed to all candidates in a "reasonable period" ahead of voting.
Mwonzora said Friday that the MDC had still not received the full lists to be able to verify allegations that at least 870,000 names were duplicated.
Tsvangirai also said the state electoral body printed an extra 2 million ballot papers based on the grossly inflated and flawed voters' register, far above the norm. The opposition leader said in court submissions due to be heard Saturday that the duplication of names led to multiple voting and ballot papers that could not be accounted for.
"All in all, the huge scale of duplication of names puts into serious doubts the credibility of the voters' roll and the entire electoral process," he said.
A voter registration program for new voters before the election was heavily skewed in favor of Mugabe's ZANU-PF party. In one rural Mugabe stronghold, 18 registration teams were deployed compared to five in an urban stronghold of Tsvangirai in Harare that has a larger population than the rural district dominated by Mugabe's party.

Hook and loop tape (Velcro) was invented by a Swiss engineer George de Mestral in 1941, Velcro is a combination of two French words Velours(Velvet) and crochet (hook)
What is Hook and Loop Tape?
Hook and loop tape is most commonly known as velcro tape or hook and loop fastener tape. The backing tape material may vary but hook and loops are normally made from nylon or polyester. It is a type of fastener closure system consisting of two types of tape that, when pressed together, form a secure fastening.
One tape, called hook tape, has a rough side consisting of tiny hooks and the other tape is called loop tape and is covered in soft loops. When these two tapes are pressed together the hooks on the hook tape engage with the loops on the loop tape causing them to bind together. The two tapes can be peeled apart when required making a distinctive tearing sound.
How to Attach Hook and Loop Tape
Most hook and loop tapes have a pressure sensitive self-adhesive backing for a secure attachment. Fabric backed hook and loop tape can be sewn to textiles such as clothing, bags, and furniture. Heat activated adhesive hook and loop tape uses heat from an iron that makes the adhesive tacky, it can then be stuck to the surface of the fabric.
Types of Hook and Loop Tape
Standard Hook and Loop: These are separate hook and loop tapes which are sold together for convenience but they can also be purchased separately
Back to Back Hook and Loop: This tape has hooks on one side and loops on the other enabling it to be wrapped around itself for securing bundles of cables
Self-Engaging Hook and Loop: This tape, also known as mixed hook and loop tape, has hooks and loops on the same side for a one-piece solution
Mushroom Hook Tape: This tape has mushroomed shaped stems protruding from the backing. When pressed together these stems interlock with one another to provide a secure fastening
Hook and loop tapes are available in various lengths and widths and can also be supplied on a strip in separate circular coin shapes or squares

Agencies looking to share big data analytics across different enterprise platforms as well as in cloud infrastructures can run into a problem: What if data is just too big to move?
That is what is happening to some organizations that store, manage and process the vast amounts of data collected from a variety of sources, according to Sanjay Mehta, Splunk's vice president of marketing.
As a result, Splunk has released a beta version of new software designed to help government agencies and businesses easily visualize and analyze data in Apache's Hadoop open-source framework.
Hunk: Splunk Analytics for Hadoop is a stand-alone software product that lets organizations give broader user groups insight into their data assets without custom development, data modeling or lengthy batch processing iterations, according to Splunk officials. The software provides interactive data exploration, discovery and analytics so users can more easily gain insights from raw data in Hadoop, the say.
Hunk is another addition to Splunk's portfolio of software anchored by the company's flagship platform, Splunk Enterprise, which collects, indexes and harnesses machine data generated by applications, servers and devices, whether they are physical, virtual or in the cloud.
The company has technology to let data analysts move data in and out of Hadoop, but some customers are saying that data is becoming so large they can't move it any more. So they are looking for ways to move data natively within Hadoop, Mehta said in an interview with GCN.
Hunk lets analysts explore data in Hadoop from one place, allowing them to perform interactive data exploration across large, diverse data sets. They do not have to understand the data upfront. Instead, they can simply point Hunk at the Hadoop cluster and start exploring data immediately, Splunk officials said.
Splunk Virtual Index separates the storage of data from the analytics, which helps speed analysis, Mehta said. The virtual index technology links Hunk into the entire Splunk technology stack. For instance, links to Splunk Search Processing Language let users perform interactive exploration, analysis and visualization of data stored anywhere, as if it was stored in a Splunk software index, Mehta said.
After analysts determine what they want to analyze, they will want to do a deeper dive to explore trends and identify patterns of interest, Mehta said. Hunk helps them detect patterns and find anomalies across large volumes of data. They can correlate data to spot trends, identify patterns and gain further insights by connecting data from external relational databases using Splunk DB Connect. Released in March, DB Connect integrates structured data from relational databases with machine data generated by back-end IT systems, networks, applications and even mobile devices, giving analysts insights about the data and helping them make more informed decisions in real-time.
Analysts can use Hunk to build graphs and charts, combining them into customized dashboards that can be shared to laptops, tablets and other mobile devices. Mehta said.
Splunk is looking for beta users among its Fortune 100 and government clients who can apply Hunk to solve problems from vast and complex data sets, leading up to general availability of the software later this year, Mehta said.

Modified Mustangs & FordsHow To Engine
Building A High Performance Boss Mustang 409 Engine - Big Boss Buildup
We Take A Look Inside MPG Head Service's Cleveland Head Small-Block Stroker
Imagine being able to make 680 hp and 530 lb-ft of torque from a low-deck 289/302ci block. Most people would say this is impossible, but MPG Head Service and CamResearch in Englewood, Colorado, did it, in cooperation with Primedia's Popular Hot Rodding magazine, at the '06 Jeg's Engine Masters Challenge, held at Bill Mitchell's Hard Core Racing on Long Island, New York. Think of the Engine Masters Challenge as dyno racing with a twist. It isn't just about who can make the most power, but how you make that power in order to become "World Champion Engine Builder.
The Jeg's Engine Masters Challenge is an arena for the best engine builders in North America. It isn't easy. Mandatory displacement is 410 ci, and the engine must run on 92-octane fuel through 3-inch pipes and mufflers. Competition is divided into three groups for the first round of dyno racing. The top two engines from each qualifying round move on to final competition. With a score of 993.90, MPG Head Service came in Fifth in the Top Six from a field of 50 top-drawer participants from around the country. First Place, which went to Jon Kaase Racing, netted a score of 1,043.20.
It wasn't easy for MPG to enter a Cleveland-head, 302-based engine in this competition. Remember, the mandate was 410 ci. How do you stuff 409-410ci into a 289/302 block? We're going to tell you. Because MPG wanted to remain loyal to its mainstream 302-inch customer base, it was determined to build something based on this engine instead of the 351C or 351W. MPG contacted the rules committee and told them what it wanted to do. Remarkably, the committee agreed, and MPG went to work.
Just about any savvy engine builder can throw together something that can make {{{600}}} hp and 450 lb-ft of torque. The greatest challenge is where and how you make that power. Where do horsepower and torque begin and end? How useful is your power on the street? If power happens only at 6,000 rpm, your engine isn't very useful on the street, let alone the track. For an engine to be truly competitive, power needs to happen and last across most of the engine's operating range. This means useful power from 2,500 to 6,500 rpm.
Meet Scott Main of MPG Head Service and CamResearch. Three and one-half decades ago, $50 a month bought a lot of car. With lawn mowing and paper-route money, 14 year-old Scott bought his first car-a '69 Super Cobra Jet Mach 1 with the Drag Pack option. Even before he could get a driver's license in the state of Colorado, this relentlessly determined kid would talk to anyone who would listen into driving him to the racetrack in order to compete at the drags. That gut determination paid off when he won NHRA's World Championship in 1978.
Shortly after accomplishing such an incredible feat, Scott opened MPG Head Service and CamResearch, taking his passion and channeling it with specialty parts for {{{Ford}}} V-8s such as made-to-order intake manifolds, heads, and more. CamResearch was his avenue for custom-ground cams and valvetrain components for most Ford and {{{Chevrolet}}} applications. Scott has several patents to his credit, which means he's always thinking of new ways to make or improve performance. Suffice it to say we're not surprised he did so well at the Engine Masters Challenge.
The MPG/CamResearch Ford small-block seen here doesn't use a factory block, but it employs the same deck height, bore spacing, and oil-pan rails as the 289/302ci Ford. What's more, it will fit into just about any Ford you can think of. At first glance, it looks like an aluminum-head small-block Ford with some fancy bolt-ons. Closer scrutiny reveals a motive to Scott's madness, and insight into how productive power is made.
How does anyone get 409 ci from such a small package? Most folks stop at 347 or 355 ci using a stock block. Based on MPG's popular 355 and 377ci Boss stroker engines and modern Dart block technology, here's how Scott squeezed 409 ci into a 289/302-size block.
Cleveland 4V Vs. MPG 3V
Let's put the factory 351C-4V head alongside the MPG 3V head and compare. It's apples and oranges because the MPG 3V Cleveland head is a clean sheet of paper casting for Clevelands and Windsors alike. It's simply better than a factory iron 351C-2V or 4V head. The 3V yields technology that was unavailable in 1970. The trend in cylinder heads is toward smaller, more efficient heart-shaped chambers with plenty of quench area for improved combustion. This takes the ping out of hard acceleration and makes the most of the fuel/air charge. Behind the wheel, it means more power without engine suffrage.
Would you believe the MPG 3V intake port flows more air than the larger 351C-4V ports? Scott tells us improving port geometry does this. Not only has MPG improved intake flow with this head, but it has also improved velocity, which provides more torque. MPG achieves this with five-axis CNC port work-improving the short-turn radius and offering a better valve job at the same time.
To keep port velocity high, the finished intake runners aren't extensively modified at all. They remain a lot like they arrive from Australia. Scott hand-finished one short-turn radius and intake bowl, which improved flow during development. He took this information, digitized it, and made it part of his CNC programming. MPG coats each intake port with a special thermal coating to reduce intake charge temperature-which means a denser mixture and greater power. Scott learned he had to do little to the chamber. Exhaust ports have been raised 0.400 inch to improve flow.
Scott went with a mechanical roller cam from his own CamResearch company. A mechanical camshaft makes sense when we're going to spin it high and don't want the irregularities of a hydraulic roller cam. Pro Magnum 1.7:1 roller rockers from Comp Cams are also used. Here's the straight dope on this Engine Masters cam from CamResearch.
|Duration at 0.050 in:
|252-deg. exhaust
|Valve Lift:
|.744 intake,
.725 exhaust
|Lobe Separation:
|106 deg.
MPG opted for this rocker arm stud girdle from Jomar, which is mandatory for camshafts with fast ramps and high spring pressures. This keeps the valvetrain stable and safe.
Scott adds that seat-to-seat duration is short and lifter acceleration is fast. This means fast open and a lot of time at near full lift to fill the bore with the densest mixture possible. This means power across a broad band.

In recent years, concerns have been raised about a growing gender gap in Canadian education. Just 20 years ago, a smaller proportion of women than men had a tertiary education, and a key challenge was to make higher education more accessible and welcoming to women. While the challenge remains in some of the mathematics, computer, and engineering disciplines, the overall gender imbalance tipped in women's favour in Canada in the early 1990s.1
Many are asking whether there is a "boy crisis" in education and wondering what can be done to address it. In fact, a growing "boy gap" in education can be seen across OECD countries, with the problem beginning long before students reach post-secondary age. According to a recent report, "boys, as a group, rank behind girls by nearly every measure of scholastic achievement"—including reading and writing scores—and they are "also more likely to be picked out for behavioural problems, more likely to repeat a grade and to drop out of school altogether."2
A gender gap in tertiary education indicates problems may exist in a country's education system as a whole. Every peer country exhibits a gender imbalance in higher education of some magnitude, though some are closer to an equal distribution than others. Although Canada is awarded a respectable "B" for having only a moderate gender gap in educational attainment, it ranks 9th out of 16 peer countries. For every 100 Canadian women aged 25 to 64 who have completed tertiary education, only 83 Canadian men have.
In first-place Japan, by contrast, for every 100 women with tertiary education, a nearly equal number (103) of Japanese men have one. Five more of Canada's peers—France, U.S., U.K., Netherlands, and Belgium—also earn "A" grades for having relatively smaller gender gaps, and Canada is also outperformed by Australia and Ireland, albeit by small margins. At the other end of the spectrum, gender imbalances of between 25 and 30 per cent are seen in Germany, Finland, and Sweden. And in lowest-ranked Switzerland, men are almost 50 per cent more likely than women to have tertiary education—a situation that reflects a more traditional (i.e., male biased) gender imbalance.
Which gender is on the disadvantaged side of the equation differs by country. In 6 of the 16 peer countries, men aged 25 to 64 are more likely than women in that age cohort to have tertiary education. This includes high-ranking Japan, U.K., and Netherlands, where the balance tips slightly in favour of men; but also poor performers Austria, Germany, and Switzerland where men are significantly more likely than women to have tertiary education. The remaining 10 countries—including Canada—have gender imbalances that favour women.
However, when we examine the more recent cohort of graduates—those aged 25 to 34—nearly every country has a gender imbalance that favours women. In most cases, moreover, women's advantage has become much more pronounced. For every 100 Canadian women aged 25 to 34 with a tertiary education, only 75 men have one. In Finland, the ratio is a striking 100 women to 62 men. In this light, there is evidence to support rising concerns about a "boy crisis" in education.
At the same time, it is important to keep in mind that college and university are only two of many possible educational avenues. Indeed, men's lower rate of tertiary education may be due in part to their pursuing apprenticeships and other vocational paths to lucrative careers. Moreover, although more women than men graduate overall from Canadian tertiary institutions, men still dominate many of the fields with superior employment and income prospects for graduates. For example, while women are more likely than men to be enrolled in the humanities, social and behavioural sciences, and education, men are much more likely than women to be enrolled in architecture, engineering, mathematics, and computer and information sciences.3
In short, although there is reason to be concerned about the gender gap in Canadian higher education, debate and decision-making should take into account the many variations in participation and outcomes by program and institution, and how these align with employment and income.
Examining the gender gap in tertiary education for the adult population aged 25 to 64 provides an important picture of a country's overall, long-term performance. But it is just as important to know how a younger age group—those aged 25 to 34—is faring, given that the experiences of this group provides a better sense of how the system currently performs, or has performed in more recent years.
Unfortunately, Canada slips from 9th to 12th place overall as the gender gap for those aged 25 to 34 is 0.25 (versus 0.17 among those aged 25 to 64). In other words, for every 100 Canadian men aged 25 to 34 with a tertiary education there are 125 women with the same.
Canada deteriorated from an "A" in 1998–99 to a "B" in 2010. Whereas Canadian universities and colleges graduated 90 men for every 100 women in 1998–99, this fell to 83 men for every 100 women by 2010. While many of Canada's peers also slipped a grade, Japan and the Netherlands not only held onto their "A" grades but also leapt over Canada in the standings by reducing the gender gaps between 1998 and 2010.
Japan has the smallest gender gap in tertiary attainment among the 16 peer countries, but it has achieved this only in the last decade. In 1998–99, Japan had a much larger gap that favoured men—120 Japanese men for every 100 Japanese women attained tertiary education. But over the next decade, more women than men had tertiary education, leading to a better balance in the overall population. Whether Japan will continue to have a good gender balance, or whether the trend toward more female graduates will lead to an overall gap that favours women, remains to be seen. What is clear is that across almost all peer countries, the trend towards more female than male graduates is intensifying and producing greater gender imbalances.
If Canada wants to improve its gender balance in higher education, it will have to take steps to improve boys' performance in elementary and secondary school and increase the rates at which they apply to, enroll in, and complete tertiary education. At the same time, Canada needs to continue to make efforts to repair gender imbalances in specific fields and programs. Action in both areas will be essential to achieving a more equitable distribution of educational opportunities and achievements, which can contribute to economic prosperity and social well-being.

I will argue that the recently introduced quasilocal framework for black hole mechanics (based on the form of the near horizon geometry of stationary black holes (BHs)) together with an additional assumption on the degeneracy of the area spectrum in quantum gravity (holography for non geometric degrees of freedom) leads to agreement between the statistical mechanical treatment of quantum black holes and standard semiclassical results in BH thermodynamics. More precisely, up to small quantum corrections, quantum black holes satisfy the following properties: Entropy is Bekenstein-Hawking entropy, and fluctuations of the horizon area are small. Moreover, under the above assumption, an explicit correspondence between the statistical mechanical treatment of the fundamental LQG degrees of freedom and the semiclassical Euclidean path integral formulation can be explicitly established.

Federal Cuts Mean Longer Wait Times at O'Hare
Federal officials say among the effects of automatic budget cuts is an up to 50 percent increase in wait times at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.
It will also mean fewer grants and reduced hiring by the U.S. Coast Guard.
The Department of Homeland Security sent Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn a letter Monday with details.
The cuts mean reduced overtime and furloughs for Customs and Border Protection officers, resulting in 2-to 4-hour waits during peak air travel times.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency will reduce several grants, including those to help firefighters.
The Coast Guard will have to cut maritime operations by about 26 percent on Illinois rivers, which will affect safety and security.
The letter says the reduction mean patrols of infrastructure and hazardous cargoes will be scaled back.

Surf's up and the coffee is almost ready.
San Rafael's Equator Coffees & Teas is opening its first retail shop and the lucky locale is in the Proof Lab Surf Shop in Mill Valley. When it opens June 21, the bright red building will be a "beach shack meets modern-day coffee bar," according to Equator owners Helen Russell and Brooke McDonnell of Novato.
In addition to beverages, there will be goodies from Mill Valley's Beth's Community Kitchen and San Anselmo's gluten-free bakery Flour Craft Bakery.
Russell and McDonnell began conversations with Proof Lab Surf Shop co-owner Will Hutchinson and discovered his community- and green-focused philosophy was akin with theirs.
Equator will be offering free coffee, herbal ice tea and hot chocolate June 22 and 23, there will be a tiki-themed party from 5 to 9 p.m. June 22 and at noon June 23, there will be a special tasting event.
Seasonal hours will be 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays, 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturdays and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sundays. Equator Coffees @ Proof Lab is at 244 Shoreline Highway in Mill Valley. Call 209-3733 or go to www.equator coffees.com.
Croissants, delivered
In her 12 years as a private chef on yachts cruising the Mediterranean, Samantha "Sami" Gordon came to a realization. "I would go to the market every morning and bought croissants every day. After a while I noticed that there were only plain and chocolate croissants, and thought, why aren't there any other kinds?" Gordon says.
Gordon set out to change that.
Now calling Sausalito home, Gordon started Croissami, fetauring her own seasonal savory and sweet tastes such as mushrooms, truffles and parmesan; barbecue pork; pizza and s'mores among more traditional plain, chocolate and almond.
Since croissants are best eaten the day they're baked, Gordon delivers her fresh out-of-the-oven treats by the box to offices and individuals in Marin and San Francisco.
Her mini mix croissant box offers the chance to taste a sampling at $24 a dozen. Savory croissants are $45 a dozen, and sweet $42 a dozen. Gordon also offers loaf-style vegetable and cheese frittatas and croissant bread pudding.
Gordon is looking for a retail opportunity, but until then, call 666-2257 or go to croissami.com.
We're jammin'
With all those beautiful fresh fruits hitting the market, minds meander to the thought of making jams and preserves. Don't know how? Jordan Champagne of Happy Girl Kitchen will teach the secrets of the craft at Cavallo Point Cooking School from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. June 22.
The $135 class starts with an introduction to food safety covering hot bath water canning and pH scale. Try three recipes from fresh seasonal berries and take home a jar of each.
The Cooking School is at Cavallo Point at Cavallo Point Lodge at 601 Murray Circle at Fort Baker in Sausalito. Call 888-651-2003 or go to www.cavallopoint.com.
Talking health
Dr. Daphne Miller, author of "Farmacology" and a family physician, believes that health comes not just from the medical system, but from kitchens, sustainable farms and community gardens. Miller joins Marin cheese maker, sheep rancher and former science writer Marcia Barinaga from Barinaga Ranch in a talk, "What Can the Farmer Teach the Doctor?" at 7:30 p.m. June 15.
The talk costs $15 and is at Toby's Feed Barn at 11250 Highway One in Point Reyes Station. Call 663-1542 or go to www.ptreyesbooks.com.
