What a fantastic and super versatile syrup!! My family and company loved it. I tripled the recipe and added about a teaspoon of cinnamon. I served it over an apple crisp, which was a big hit. We can't wait to have it on some pancakes tomorrow morning. This is a definite keeper!people found this review Helpful. You can only vote others' reviews helpful or not helpful...

A gear or rack-shaped tool for precision machining of tooth flanks of gears is provided with a coating of a hard material like diamond or cubic bornitride (CBN). In order to be able to apply this coating without any problems, the tool includes two connected halves. Each half includes a base member with teeth which project axially beyond one side of the base member every second tooth being removed. The projecting teeth of each half project into the gaps created by the teeth removed from the other half.
1. In a gear or rack-shaped precision finishing tool for precision finishing of tooth flanks, particularly of hardened gears, including a tooth base member of metal having a coating which includes grains of a hard material such as cubic boron nitride (CBN) or diamond covering each tooth flank of said base member, the improvement comprising wherein said base member of said tool includes two halves on which each second tooth is removed to thereby provide sufficient space for the even application of said coating on the circumferentially facing sides of each of said tooth flanks of the remaining teeth, the remaining teeth each having a pair of oppositely circumferentially facing involute tooth flanks separated at the radial extremity by a land surface, said tooth flanks and land surface extending axially beyond said one side of said base member a distance which is approximately half of their length, said base members being oppositely directed and connected to each other so as to be fixed against relative rotation, wherein said axially projecting teeth of each half are disposed between the teeth of the other half, and wherein connecting means are provided for connecting said two halves together.
2. The gear or rack-shaped tool according to claim 1, wherein gaps exist between said axially projecting teeth of each half and said base member of the other half, said gaps being filled with a plastic or adhesive filling.
3. The gear or rack-shaped tool according to claim 2, wherein said plastic or adhesive filling extends into the base region of the tooth gaps circumferentially between said axially projecting teeth of one half and the teeth of the other half.
This invention relates to a tool for precision machining of tooth flanks, particularly of hardened gears and, more particularly, to such a tool having a toothed base of metal and a coating which includes grains of a hard material, for example cubic bornitride (CBN) or diamond, on the tooth flanks of the base.
For precision machining of tooth flanks of particularly hard gears, tools have become known in which a toothed base member is equipped with diamond grains or corns on its flanks, for example from German Offenlegungsschrift No. 23 06 780. A coating with corns of cubic bornitride (CBN) is described in German Offenlegungsschrift No. 32 02 695.
In particular, in the case of tooth systems with a small modulus, producing an even coating with the hard-material grains at times creates considerable difficulties, since a galvanic or other treatment in the narrow tooth gaps can be accomplished only with great difficulty.
Therefore, a basic purpose of the invention is to produce a gear or rack-shaped tool in which the mentioned difficulties during coating with hard-material grains are avoided.
To attain this purpose, a tool is provided which includes two halves which each include a toothed base member on which each second tooth is removed, the remaining teeth projecting axially beyond one side of the base member a distance which is approximately half of their length, wherein the base members are oppositely directed and connected to each other so as to be fixed against relative rotation, and wherein the axially projecting teeth of each tool half are disposed between the teeth of the other half. The gaps between teeth in this embodiment are approximately three times as wide on each tool half as in known tools, which permits, even in tooth systems with a small modulus, troublefree application of an even coating with the hard-material grains. In the case of a hard use of this tool, it is advantageous if the projecting teeth of each half are supported directly on the base member of the other half, and by using an adhesive or plastic filling this is possible with minimal manufacturing expense. Particularly effective is an embodiment in which the plastic or adhesive filling reaches the base region of the tooth gaps between the projecting teeth of one half and the teeth of the other half, because with this a tangential support of the projecting teeth is also achieved. One must, of course, be certain that the filling does not cover the operationally active flanks of the tooth teeth.
A gear-shaped tool which is composed of two halves for the finish working of gears is known from German Pat. No. 975 817 (which corresponds to U.S. Pat. No. 2,228,966). However, this patent deals with a shaving gear which does not have any characteristics of the invention except the division into two halves, which is carried out for entirely different reasons, namely, to facilitate resharpening.
The invention will be described in detail hereinafter in connection with two exemplary embodiments, which are shown in four figures:
FIG. 1 is a perspective side view of one half of a tool embodying the invention;
FIG. 2 is a longitudinal sectional side view of the complete tool;
FIG. 3 is a fragmentary side view of the tool of FIG. 2; and
FIG. 4 is a view similar to FIG. 3 which shows a different embodiment of the tool illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3.
The inventive tool in FIG. 2 includes two halves 1 and 2. Each half 1 and 2 has a respective disk-shaped base member 3 or 4 which is provided with circumferentially spaced teeth 5 or 6 about its periphery. These teeth each project on one side axially beyond the base member 3 or 4, namely, sufficiently far so that the projecting portions 5' and 6' have an axial length which is approximately equal to the width of the base members 3 and 4. (If, in cases of exception, the base members have different widths, then the projecting length of teeth on one half is to correspond with the width of the base member of the other half.) The teeth 5 and 6 are produced by a conventional method and have a pair of oppositely circumferentially facing involute tooth flanks separated at the radial extremities by a land surface, and subsequently each second tooth on each base member is removed. Some of the removed teeth 9 are indicated in FIG. 1 with dashed lines. The remaining teeth 5 and 6 carry a coating of grains 8 of a hard material, for example cubic bornitride (CBN) or diamond, the coating being applied with a conventional method, for example galvanically. The wide tooth gap 10 created by the removal of each second tooth 9 facilitates a troublefree application of the coating in a manner so that its thickness and structure is even.
The two halves 1 and 2 are then put together so as to be mirror-inverted with respect to one another, whereby the projecting sections 5' of the teeth 5 of the half 1 each lie between two teeth 6 of the half 2. Screws 11 or other suitable fasteners hold together the two halves 1 and 2 so that they are fixed against relative rotation. Earlier, of course, the halves 1 and 2 had to be aligned with one another, in order to have all over the same tooth width dimension.
The radial gap between the projecting portions 5' and 6' and the respective base member 4 or 3 which is covered by them can be filled in with an adhesive or a plastic material 12 (FIG. 3). The solidity of this connection is further enhanced if, as shown in FIG. 4, the adhesive or the plastic surrounds the tooth dedendum of each projecting tooth portion 5' or 6' on both sides and in this manner creates a connection 13 to the adjacent teeth 5 and 6 of the other half 1 or 2. The active tooth flanks 14 remain free of the filling material.
The inventive tool is illustrated and described as a gear-shaped tool. In the case of a design as a rack-shaped tool, the teachings in the description and drawing are still applicable, and the same applies in the case of an internally toothed tool. The tool may be helically toothed or straight toothed.
Although particular preferred embodiments of the invention have been disclosed in detail for illustrative purposes, it will be recognized that variations or modifications of the disclosed apparatus, including the rearrangement of parts, lie within the scope of the present invention.

Ms. Truett said, "Late last year our Board set out to find a senior executive with a record of success in the entertainment industry and substantial financial and operating experience who could help make the most of Lancit's business opportunities. We have found the ideal executive in Susan.
"Susan brings a strategic vision, proven managerial skills, a breadth of industry knowledge and relationships and an entrepreneurial approach that will be of tremendous value to Lancit. Larry and I will devote our full energy to creating and producing the high-quality programming for which Lancit is known. This will position the Company for tremendous growth."
"I am delighted to join Lancit, a company with a well-earned reputation for producing high-quality, award-winning programming - like Reading Rainbow - and a strong track record in creating great brands," Ms. Solomon said. "With our excellent creative team, our new programming relationships - with Discovery, with educational institutions like the Smithsonian and the American Museum of Natural History, and with others - our committed staff, and our own licensing resources, we will aggressively pursue business opportunities available to the Company."

The process was very easy. The customer service representative was incredibly knowledgeable and did not try to "upsell" me. He was pleasant patient and professional. He emailed every step of the way. He emailed when the T-Shirts were delivered and followed up to see if we needed anything and to endured the product was top quality. I will absolutely use CustomInk again and recommend them to others.

I was hesitant about using an online service to get our T shirts made but after talking with customer service I felt as if they were serious about providing a product that met and exceeded our expectations. And CustomInk did just that. Very user friendly web application and great personal attention with my order. Definitely going to recommend to others.

Customer service is wonderful. Everyone I spoke with was very helpful. I had a bit of trouble at the beginning setting up for members of my group to place orders. I sent out the group leader link so everyone became a group leader. Once that was figured out and I was given the link to send out so they could just sing up, all went very well. Suggestions for improvement: I had two designs and two shirts for each design so it was a bit cumbersome having to go to different links. It would be cool to be able to see it all in one and for those ordering to see them in one link. Also, when someone ordered 14 of one size, that was pretty cumbersome to not be able to put in 14 smalls instead of adding 1 fourteen times.
North Palm Beach, FL
I felt that the sizing is wrong. I held a large and medium up to each other, and they were basically identical. I followed your sizing recommendation chart, and it was completely off. Several shirts were too small. Secondly, it seems that a $16 dollar tee-shirt should be perfect. If you are going to charge such exorbitant prices, then you better get it right. Otherwise, charge $10 and I won't feel so put off.

I had the BEST experience working with Kalani! Her customer service was outstanding in every aspect. The proof was perfect the first time and all the follow up I had after with the different areas of customer service was top notch. Would recommend Customink without a doubt!!!! Thank you all for making this so easy!

I have found everyone with whom i've spoken to be capable, clear, and exceptionally pleasant. I'd love to continue to work with you -- my main request is slightly more stylish tank/tee options, with a softer color palette than these. Last year I used the bella micro-ribbed tanks, which looked nice, but many folks disliked that they stretch out a lot. One thing that worked well was that a lot of the men were okay with the tanks, too -- generally they got XL so that they weren't totally skin tight, which isn't as much in fashion for men in our community. Any ideas?

Cuban Rounds Cigars
Cuban Rounds Cigars Description
Cuban Rounds cigars are short filler cigars that were introduced early in 2006. They are immediately recognizable for their bands' resemblance to another very popular cigar, from an equally popular island 90 miles south of Miami. To date, they have become a favorite choice for budget-minded cigar smokers. Using a blend of all Cuban-seed Nicaraguan tobaccos, the cigars offer a medium-to-full body. Nicaraguan puros. A good "every day" cigar that won't break your budget.

Tribold have collaborated with Telecom New Zealand to produce a TM Forum Introductory Guide for PLM
London, UK - December 4, 2012: Tribold in collaboration with Telecom New Zealand and TM Forum have released an industry leading PLM Introductory Guide for the Digital Economy which will prove critical for all companies seeking to capitalize on the explosion of new service revenue by reducing their time- and cost-to-market, whilst improving innovation and quality. This guide is a contribution from Tribold and Telecom New Zealand to TM Forum's Frameworx suite of best practices and standards. It explores the rationale for PLM in the Digital Economy, the maturity of the frameworks available and how such organizations might go about deploying PLM fit for their purposes.
Catherine Michel, CTO and founder of Tribold, observes that "with subscriber saturation in the communications sector at an all-time high, the emergence of multi-service providers from non-traditional sources, the convergence of user interfaces and increasing network abstraction, the pressure is on to execute a product strategy that delivers simplification and accuracy, personalization without customization, reliability and flexibility at a low cost. In this context, PLM is becoming an essential enabler of the Digital Economy."
The introductory guide outlines how PLM, if implemented correctly, can have significant operational, financial and customer experience benefits:
Operating cost reduction. Decrease execution cost, increase human resource performance, decrease churn rate.
Time management. Decrease time to market, decrease waiting time, decrease delay in delivery to the customer through improved collaboration and establishing a consistent, product development process across the business.
Innovation. Organizations are looking for PLM to improve the business by enabling more innovation at the idea stage, producing better product designs, increased reuse, standards and consistency, clearer visibility and management of product data.
Product and process quality improvement. Increases can be observed in product management process performance; customer value performance; value net performance; information agile product catalogues availability and accuracy; product launch quality; provisioning performance; service quality and reductions in technical defects.
"Product Lifecycle Management is rapidly becoming a key competency for service providers as they embrace digital services which demand dramatically shorter lifecycles and agile product data management," said Nik Willetts, chief strategy officer, TM Forum. "This introductory guide, based on the collective expertise and experience of Tribold and Telecom New Zealand, provides a solid foundation for anybody embracing PLM, and for best practice in this area."

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies.

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

Inhibition of aggregation of amyloid β42 by arginine-containing small compounds.
ABSTRACT Aggregations of proteins are in many cases associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's (AD). Small compounds capable of inhibiting protein aggregation are expected to be useful for not only in the treatment of disease but also in probing the structures of aggregated proteins. In previous studies using phage display, we found that arginine-rich short peptides consisting of four or seven amino acids bound to soluble 42-residue amyloid β (Aβ42) and inhibited globulomer (37/48 kDa oligomer) formation. In the present study, we searched for arginine-containing small molecules using the SciFinder searching service and tested their inhibitory activities against Aβ42 aggregation, by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-PAGE and thioflavine T binding assay. Commercially available Arg-Arg-7-amino-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin was found to exhibit remarkable inhibitory activities to the formation of the globulomer and the fibril of Aβ42. This chimera-type tri-peptide is expected to serve as the seed molecule of a potent inhibitor of the Aβ aggregation process.

Article: Effect of Mid-infrared Free-Electron Laser Irradiation on Refolding of Amyloid-Like Fibrils of Lysozyme into Native Form.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Aggregation of lysozyme in an acidic solution generates inactive amyloid-like fibrils, with a broad infrared peak appearing at 1,610-1,630 cm(-1), characteristic of a β-sheet rich structure. We report here that spontaneous refolding of these fibrils in water could be promoted by mid-infrared free-electron laser (mid-IR FEL) irradiation targeting the amide bands. The Fourier transform infrared spectrum of the fibrils reflected a β-sheet content that was as low as that of the native structure, following FEL irradiation at 1,620 cm(-1) (amide I band); both transmission-electron microscopy imaging and Congo Red assay results also demonstrated a reduced fibril structure, and the enzymatic activity of lysozyme fibrils recovered to 70-90 % of the native form. Both irradiations at 1,535 cm(-1)(amide II band) and 1,240 cm(-1) (amide III band) were also more effective for the refolding of the fibrils than mere heating in the absence of FEL. On the contrary, either irradiation at 1,100 or 2,000 cm(-1) afforded only about 60 % recovery of lysozyme activity. These results indicate that the specific FEL irradiation tuned to amide bands is efficient in refolding of lysozyme fibrils into native form.The Protein Journal 10/2012; · 1.13 Impact Factor
Article: L-Arginine induces protein aggregation and transformation of supramolecular structures of the aggregates.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Protein misfolding, self-assembly, and aggregation are an essential problem in cell biology, biotechnology, and biomedicine. The protein aggregates are very different morphologically varying from soluble amorphous aggregates to highly ordered amyloid-like fibrils. The objective of this study was to elucidate the role of the amino acid L-arginine (Arg), a widely used suppressor of protein aggregation, in the regulation of transformations of soluble aggregation-prone proteins into supramolecular structures of higher order. However, a striking potential of Arg to govern the initial events in the process of protein aggregation has been revealed under environment conditions where the protein aggregation in its absence was not observed. Using dynamic light scattering we have demonstrated that Arg (10-100 mM) dramatically accelerated the dithiothreitol-induced aggregation of acidic model proteins. The inhibitory effect on the protein aggregation was revealed at higher concentrations of Arg. Using atomic force microscopy it was shown that aggregation of α-lactalbumin from bovine milk induced upon addition of Arg reached a state of formation of supramolecular structures of non-fibrillar species profoundly differing from those of the individual protein in type, size, and shape. The interaction of another positively charged amino acid L-lysine with α-lactalbumin also resulted in profound acceleration of the aggregation process and transformation of supramolecular structures of the aggregates.Amino Acids 06/2013; · 3.91 Impact Factor
Article: Small molecules present in the cerebrospinal fluid metabolome influence superoxide dismutase 1 aggregation.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) aggregation is one of the pathological markers of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a fatal neurodegenerative disorder. The underlying molecular grounds of SOD1 pathologic aggregation remains obscure as mutations alone are not exclusively the cause for the formation of protein inclusions. Thus, other components in the cell environment likely play a key role in triggering SOD1 toxic aggregation in ALS. Recently, it was found that ALS patients present a specific altered metabolomic profile in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) where SOD1 is also present and potentially interacts with metabolites. Here we have investigated how some of these small molecules affect apoSOD1 structure and aggregation propensity. Our results show that as co-solvents, the tested small molecules do not affect apoSOD1 thermal stability but do influence its tertiary interactions and dynamics, as evidenced by combined biophysical analysis and proteolytic susceptibility. Moreover, these compounds influence apoSOD1 aggregation, decreasing nucleation time and promoting the formation of larger and less soluble aggregates, and in some cases polymeric assemblies apparently composed by spherical species resembling the soluble native protein. We conclude that some components of the ALS metabolome that shape the chemical environment in the CSF may influence apoSOD1 conformers and aggregation.International Journal of Molecular Sciences 01/2013; 14(9):19128-45. · 2.46 Impact Factor

The religious fraternity here believes that God has answered its prayers in light of the detention of dancehall artiste, Tommy Lee Sparta, after he was denied entry into Dominica on Sunday.
"All I have to say is we praise God greatly … he has shown to us that when his people come together and begin to pray with a united heart that God responds to the prayer of his people," Chairman of the Dominica Association of Evangelical Churches (DAEC), Pastor Joseph Benjamin, told DNO on Monday. "I think God has said to Dominica that he has not forgotten Dominica, and he loves this nation and he wants to protect this country."
DAEC has been one of the groups to openly oppose the appearance of Tommy Lee in a concert slated for last Sunday night.
The organization made its opinion known some weeks aback in a release which said it expresses "deep concerns with the decision by a local business entity/promoter to invite entertainer Tommy Lee Sparta to feature at a planned concert."
It called for a boycott of the concert on the basis that "the lyrics of the music by Sparta promotes violence, a phenomenon that we are currently grappling with in our nation…"
Tommy Lee was denied entry and detained in Dominica on Sunday.
When asked whether or not the religious fraternity has the right dictate what type of music the general public listens to, Benjamin said no, but DAEC took a position on the matter and prayed.
"We do not have the right to do that, we took a position, we prayed, we believe God and we believe that whatever happens it will just be for the honour and glory of God," he stated. "We do not have a right to decide for people what they want to listen to, who they want to listen to. We do not have that power, we do not have that right."
He, however, noted that the religious community has a responsibility to do whatever is possible to protect Dominica, "from the inflow of any negative information that will affect this country in a negative way … we will speak against it."
Authorities are yet to disclose to the public why Sparta who was to perform at a concert in Portsmouth on Sunday night, has been refused entry into Dominica.

Among its luminaries are the late, great Richard Manuel of The Band, John Till of Janis Joplin's Full Tilt Boogie Band, and Ken Kalmusky of Ian & Sylvia's Great Speckled Bird. Manuel, Till, and Kalmusky were also members of Ronnie Hawkins backup group, The Hawks. And today, we cannot forget Justin Bieber who acquaints a whole new group of music lovers with Stratford, Canada.

Most fine jewelry doesn't feel very *fun*, but the Workhorse girls know how to keep things light. This ultra-delicate gold bracelet is the sort you'll never ever take off—thankfully the three pavé diamonds set in the tip of the arrow are understated enough that they can hang with a bikini (or, ok fine, a puffy jacket).
- Handmade in Los Angeles.
- 14k yellow gold arrow and chain with three white pavé diamonds.
- Bracelet is 7 inches long with ¾-inch-long arrow.

Perhaps you heard some scientists landed a probe on a comet. Pretty cool. Perhaps you heard one of those scientists wore a shirt during the press conference that some people felt was inappropriate.

Week to week, if you're watching Broncos games, you're watching some of the best football on the planet. Sure, there's hype. But it's good hype.

A Forever Home Animal Rescue, Inc.
Severe skin issues and hair loss on chest, belly, legs. With treatment Leila will become the beautiful Shih Tzu she was meant to be.
For a listing of our adoptable pets go to www.petfinder.com or click the adoptable dog list tab above.
Lived in a horrible home with no grooming or kindness. Chico was afraid of everyone. See the adoptables page for his transformation.
Asia beaten by her owner to the point of breaking her leg. Her leg has healed but Asia needs to heal on the inside now. Specific adoption applications will be considered.
Everyday holds a lot of good and sometimes some bad. Today was a great day at Montverde Festival and we thank everyone for coming out and supporting our rescue. However, we are now faced with the "bad". Our latest save, Teddy Bear is fighting for his life. Teddy Bear is only 6 mos old and has a serious birth defect which has caused a host of problems including blindness. He has had surgery and we are all praying he will recover. We had to try or we would never forgive ourselves but here we are with another $2,000 bill. Yes, this is what we do but we obviously cannot do it alone. Click the link to read more about teddy bear and his condition and how you can help. Please give generously so we can get him all the care he needs.
Comment from a wonderful supporter: "You are truly the very best in rescue. Your love, care, compassion, patience, commitment and dedication towards your rescue animals is outstanding. Without hesitation you all stepped up to give this little guy the chance to live a full life unlike his owner that was ready to put him to sleep. It is my GREAT PLEASURE to know and work with you and I will do everything in my power to help you with the fundraiserfor Teddy Bear!! THANK YOU for helping all the unwanted and medically needy no matter if from OCAS, MDAS, HCAS or OS ... You continue to be there for the seniors, the young and the injured and the sick. AFHAR the very best in rescue today!!
UPDATE on Teddy Bear. He is now standing by himself, albeit wobbly and he can see! This is a MAJOR step forward for him.
Hit by a car and left to die with two broken legs and a shattered hip. " I'm healed on the outside but need your love to heal in the inside."
$5,000 raised Goal: $100,000
The owner of our adoption center is selling the property and AFHAR needs to move all of our rescued dogs. Our Vice President, Heidi Hardman, will match the first $30,000 in donations raised.
"I need help. My leg has been taken off and it cost a lot. Please donate for me.

There are no words to describe the horrific pain this girl has endured. Trixie was attacked by a very large dog who tore her up and shook her like a ragdoll. For over a month she suffered in agony because her parents would not take her to a vet. When she did not regain use of her front leg, her owner was just going to shoot her. DEAD. Can you imagine??? A good neighbor took her in and called us for help.
Lisa Gallegos Thompson and her mom, Rosella are working hard all the way from MONTANA to help raise funds for this little girl. Rosella MADE this stunningly beautiful quilt which will be raffled off on December 6. Only $5 gets you a chance to win! Handmade, fits twin size bed. Absolutely beautiful! Click this "youcaring" link to join the fundraiser on behalf of Trixie and AFHAR. Win a beautiful quilt!
A huge thank you to Tractor Supply in Leesburg
for donating 10 large bags of dog food to our rescue every single month!
It costs AFHAR upwards of $1,000 per month to feed our rescued dogs at the adoption center. Tractor Supply has allowed us to breathe a sigh of relief knowing that one huge expense has been lifted. We also attend adoption events at the store from time to time. Stay tuned!

Chinese state media quoted a former worker as saying he set the fire that killed 14 young women at a Chinese undergarment factory because he was angry about less than $500 in unpaid wages.
The suspect, Liu Shuangyun, told the Guangdong TV broadcaster in a jailhouse interview Wednesday morning that he started the fire "because I couldn't get my salary," which he had been owed since quitting the factory three years ago.
Asked whether he had thought about or regretted the loss of life the fire had caused, Liu said, "I didn't think about these things."
Fourteen people were killed and one was seriously injured in the fire Tuesday afternoon in Shantou city in Guangdong province, the provincial emergency department said on its microblog.
The 14 victims were all women aged 18 to 20, the Southern Metropolis Daily said in an online report. The official Xinhua News Agency said the victims were 13 women and one man. It said Liu, a 26-year-old migrant worker from Hunan province, had been arrested, but it didn't specify what charges he faced.
The case has underscored the hand-to-mouth existence of many young Chinese migrant workers and raised questions about basic fire safety awareness at the countless small factories that churn out clothes, toys and other goods and have helped power China's dizzying economic growth for decades.
Xinhua said the suspect spent 40 yuan (US$6) on petroleum used to start the blaze and fled the scene after his alleged crime.
"The whole time, I've been very impulsive, very angry about this," Liu said during the television interview. "So I did these things."
Sitting on a chair, his hands in handcuffs, Liu said the factory boss owed him 3,000 yuan (US$461). The reporter said that after Liu quit the factory, his former boss had only given him excuses for why he couldn't pay the back wages.
A photo accompanying the Guangdong TV report showed a four-story building, lined with windows on each floor, its front completely blackened. The fire had not spread to an adjacent building.
Geoffrey Crothall, a spokesman for China Labour Bulletin, a Hong Kong-based worker's rights group, said that judging by the photo, the factory looked like "a fairly typical manufacturing workshop" in southern Guangdong.
"In many of these places health and safety is not a priority," he said. "Many of these factories are very unpleasant places to work in."
Senior provincial officials set up a team to investigate and step up safety measures to avoid similar fatal fires, Guangdong's emergency department said. The factory made underwear, it said.
Crothall said unpaid salaries are a major source of worker discontent in China.
"A lot of this is related to the current economic climate, a lack of credit in the system, a lack of capital in circulation," Crothall said. "If companies are not getting paid for their products, then they're not going to pay their workers."
Building fires are common in China because of lax safety codes and unsafe construction work.
A fire in April 2011 at an unlicensed garment factory in Beijing killed 17 people. The fire happened in the middle of the night and anti-intrusion bars over the factory's dormitory windows were blamed for trapping victims inside.
Last month, a fire at a clothing factory in Bangladesh killed 112 people and highlighted dangerous workplace conditions. Survivors and authorities there said exit doors were locked and the building lacked emergency exits.
