Another Microsoft Trojan? Sinofsky might just want a RIM job
You are the Mussolini of Microsoft: you have the engineering operations of Windows and Office running on time, smashing their reputation for lateness. You've run the $18bn Windows business unit for Microsoft, the world's largest software company, and been in charge of the division building Office, the planet's dominant personal …
RIM are not the threat
When Elop joined Nokia, Nokia had the highest market share. They had more of the market than Apple and Samsung combined (no 2 and 3 at the time). Things are different now. For Sinofsky to do an Elop, he has to become CEO of Samsung.
Re: RIM are not the threat
Not really. For Sinofsky to do an Elop all he has to do is nip BB10 in the bud just like Elop successfully took out MeeGo (as well as Symbian).
BB10 has the potential to send Microsoft back to the drawing board if it takes off. Windows Phone 8 doesn't gain momentum, Windows 8 is written off by enterprise as another version to skip, sorry folks, we'll be back again in a few years.
Re: RIM are not the threat
To do an Elop is to shit all over the R&D of a respectable mobile company. That would be killing off BB10 and imposing the shit WP8 OS.
Except in BBs case, that wouldn't just stagnate them, it would kill them. RIM's remaining asset is actually their secure OS; while "Secure Windows" is an oxymoron even among the non-techies.
Re: RIM are not the threat
no, remember that Elop delivered lots of patents to Microsoft . The same could be what Microsoft would look for in RIM since they are or were _the_ enterprise device company before most others.
Windows to make own phone
Will that be called the Windows Phone Phone?
Re: Windows to make own phone
Unless they partnered with HP
Then it would be called "personal digital communication faciliation node B" but you could only buy one if you knew the model number.
Re: Windows to make own phone
WinPhoPho to us techy types.
Since Elop is probably going to be out of a job by the end of 2013 as Nokia burns around him, Sinofsky could do worse than take a post in Finland to do a dustpan and brush job on the smouldering ashes.
Or he could head to Apple to take over from Scott Forstall.
Baseless speculation by journalists - it's like rocket surgery without the rockets.
Or the surgery.
Sony perhaps?
Sounds idiotic, but like Nokia, Sony holds still a significant share on some product segments and is in need of someone that can break the mentality and culture that has stagnated Sony in the last decade.
Of course, Nokia was like that, only they choose a guy who only could see their former employer as the fix for all of their problems.
Oh, hold on, Sony is a direct Microsoft competitor, that cannot happen.
Re: Sony perhaps?
Sony is just a jack-ass incompetent corporation that in one hand angers the tech-community and ont he other hand has no clue how to make a product or what people actually wants. A company ran by assholes with their heads up their arse.
They could have made a winner Android phone on several occasions but they blew it. E.g. just stick 8GB internal storage in the Xperia U AND an microSD card slot and they WOULD sell! Really! But what do they do, they completeley ditch their excellent NXT design (which DID win hearts of the press except for its lack of internal storage and lack of microsdcard-slot). It's always the same with these shit corps. They compromise too much in their products so they can pay off their greedy CEO's and shareholders. Business ethics is COMPLETELEY wrong with EVERYONE!
Re: Sony perhaps?
"Oh, hold on, Sony is a direct Microsoft competitor, that cannot happen."
I think you got completely that wrong. Nokia was a direct Microsoft competitor. Symbian was the biggest competition against Windows Mobile. In fact Sony(-Ericsson) was a former microsoft partner (Xperia X1 & X2)
As for another ex-MSFT employe inside RIM, please NOOOOOOOO! Isn't it suspicious that after Symbian defeated windows mobile as the premier smartphone os in the early 2000's an ex-microsoft employer is 'appointed' Nokia's CEO and single handedly decides that 'Symbian is a burning platform'. And then the 'press' is surprised that WE, normal folks, begin to talk about conspiracy.
Microsoft, their moles and their attidute have already destroyed too much good things! IMHO they should be stopped at ANY cost!
Re: Sony perhaps?
The general opinion is that Sony tanked because the engineers didn't have to listen to the greedy CEO and shareholders.
Products were created without any consideration of what they would cost to build, what they would sell for and what the market wanted.
They created proprietry standards for everything because no salesperson could tell the engineers to use standard parts rather than invent their own "better" solution.
And every engineering group within Sony saw every other part of Sony as the main competition
Conspiracy theory?
Maybe the poor bugger had his 1 in 3 cancer chance come up, but held out to finish the job.
Or maybe he's been banging his secretary, and now needs time to fix things with the wife.
Or maybe he fancies a go in the political arena.
Or maybe he just got bored of it all.
Perhaps US monoculture means he'll have no other facets, but this evil empire stuff just seems a bit desperate.
Guess you used the wrong similitude....
Mussolini, like everybody else in Italy, *thought* he was in command, while everybody under him was actively doing whatever they thought would have helped themselves best and just pretend to listen to their "leader" and obey. In Germany it worked, and that's why there it was far worse than in Italy.
Re: Guess you used the wrong similitude....
And it's a myth he made the trains run on time:
Re: Guess you used the wrong similitude....
Actually he adapted the steam engines to burn local weed bushes rather than expensive imported coal.
- he made the trains run on Thyme!
Elop is not a "Trojan Horse"...
... he is a Trojan Jackass, so technically his answer was truthful.
As for Sinofsky - I think we need the perspective of history on this one: either he's bailing because he's seen the seawater in the bilge and knows Win8 is going to be a shipwreck, or he's been kicked out because MonkeyBoy thinks he is a threat, or he is being fitted for his own Wooden Equine Armor of Infiltration.
put on a bit more muscle and polish his head and could work at apple ;).
Perhaps he could do an Elop with Elop.
No one recognizes the 'rim job'?
Re: Seriously?
Oh my! How ever did that happen!
Re: Seriously?
More like "no one cares anymore. It's been done to death."
You really think that this article exists for any other reason?
Naughty El Reg, naughty.
HP doesn't need a softie
They've already got one in the Chief Operations Officer, emplaced just in time for the runup to Windows 8. His name is Bill Veghte. He is responsible for daily operations of the company.
Conspiracy Theory...not really
Elop is the most recent example of a Microsoft sleeper cell taking down a company from the inside. Anyone remember Ricky Belluzzo, formerly of HP? He's best remembered for trying to sabotage HPUX in the 90's by making an announcement to the press that HP was going to "dump HPUX and replace it with Windows NT" (this was in the NT 3.51 days so you know how utterly laughable that was). Cue damage control. Ricky then went on to destroy SGI from the inside by doing the same thing...getting rid of the highly regarded IRIX and replacing it with Windows NT. Cue SGI tanking. It wasn't long after that he was transported up to the mothership over at Microsoft.
Would RIM be stupid enough to bring in a Microsoftie? Of course they would. They've long been a "Microsoft shop" who have resisted every attempt to move their creaking infrastructure off of Windows boxes. (Oh aye, I do have an inside view of said Titanic). Of course, Sinofsky would probably do what every other Steve Barkto has done...dump QNX and try to shove WinMo in it's place. Cue the final sinking of the RIMtanic followed by the purchase of all assets by Microsoft.
Speaking of which...since RIM is part of Apple and Microsoft's "Rockstar Consortium," It would really be in Google's best interest to slurp up the quivering gibs of RIM's demise to put a stop to their "Consortium's" attempt to kill Android.
Let me see if I have understood this correctly
1. Elop leaves MS apparently in a cloud of good will and takes over at Nokia making him Redmond's mole there tasked with destroying the company.
2. Sinofsky leaves MS apparently under a cloud of ill will and whenever he takes over a new position, possibly at RIM, he will be Redmond's mole there tasked with destroying the company.
Now if you feel that I am satirising certain elements in this article and some of the attached postings you would be right. It is however IMHO not too far from an accurate synthesis of the contradictions in the arguments used, very often by the same "usual suspects" on many different occasions. I think that some of you guys better try a bit harder to avoid posting blatantly contradictory lines of argument on related threads.
Elop Nokia, a win-win situation for Microsoft.
The destruction of Symbian and Meego in Nokia is a win-win situation for microsoft.
Obviously in the unlikely event that WinPho captured most of the former Symbian market, the win is obvious.
However Android is a more logical step for Symbian fans, the other is to hold on to Symbian as long as possible and hope one of the Meego resurrection plans works.
The figure imply that those who have given up on Symbian have mostly gone to Android. Which is still a win for Microsoft, because of all the patent revenues.
Of course whether he was a Trojan or not is a matter for the Finnish Government to investigate. I would think Hanlon's Razor is probably worth remembering though.
Elop destroyed Nokia
.. along with thousands of job losses, yet will walk away with millions in spare change.
him and SINofsky eat 50's and shit 20's... f'them, who care what they do...
Re: Windows to make own phone
Windows Phoney Phone
Sinofsky's health may have tumbled. He's been on the go and in the forefront for a long-running stretch. It's possible he's just burned out. It's possible he's got enough money that he wants to enjoy some of his life with his family....
...or he might actually be fed up with being the target of non-stop criticism. People can say that you don't get to the position without being able to take it....but let's face it, it's entirely possible that it eventually did catch up with him...
....or maybe he just had an all-out with the other bosses at MS and was beaten out by an 'organisation reshuffle with a focus on xxx services' and he didn't want to change his entire playbook for someone else's ideals on where technology is and is going.

Spectral Properties of Audio Signals and Masking with Aspect to Bit Data Reduction
For coding schemes in the frequency domain a FFT filterbank is presented. The window function was adapted to the properties of the auditory system. The modulation of the filterbank was statistically investigated with several different programs. The average information flow for a critically sampled filterbank is estimated to be less than 100 bit/s. For application on coding schemes, the overlap must be small. A new synthesis window is introduced which was adapted to the analysis window.

Truths to tell
The skies have been there
The countryside of modern Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Israel, and Palestine is in many ways very similar to the way it appeared in antiquity, but it has also changed dramatically. Some of the changes to the landscape have been slow and not initiated by humans; the land on which the modern state of Kuwait sits, for example, is the result of thousands of years of alluvial deposits at the mouth of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. But many, perhaps most, of the dramatic changes to the landscape have been made by the land's human occupants. The accumulated effects of agriculture, deforestation, extinction, urbanization, and industrialization have so altered the environment of the Middle East that it is in essence a different natural world than that occupied by its ancient inhabitants. In contrast (apart from the effects of light pollution, which can significantly obscure its features, especially in urban areas), the sky at which we glance or gaze appears essentially the same as it did in antiquity.
Yet in terms of our perception, even this sky has been altered; and transformations in celestial perspective can affect people and cultures just as dramatically as the physical changes that have occurred mundanely. The sky is no longer a divine realm. Instead, the heavens in their most proximate part have become our realm: The International Space Station orbits the earth and has been continuously manned for more than a decade now. Its human inhabitants share Earth's orbit with hundreds of unmanned satellites that allow us to predict the weather as well as communicate with and spy on one another. We have also left thousands of pieces of garbage circling our world over the last half century. This refuse, stratified in various orbits, is a remnant of our material culture. The pieces that do not succumb to the decay of their orbits may someday provide the opportunity for a sort of astroarcheology, documenting the enterprise of modern civilization's exploration, exploitation, and settlement of the heavens. In short, as we have de-deified the sky, it has become like any other place that humans have occupied. Similarly, the starry heavens' slender variations no longer reveal the gods' will to us, but they can reveal—with the right array of critical tools, both mental and instrumental—the secrets of the origins and fate of the cosmos.

|CALIPSO: Calfactant for Acute Lung Injury in Pediatric Stem Cell Transplant and Oncology Patients
|Official Title ICMJE
|A Phase 3 Trial of Calfactant for ALI in Pediatric Leukemia and HSCT Patients
|Brief Summary
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a common, life-threatening complication among pediatric leukemia and lymphoma and hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. Although these children represent a relatively small and unique patient population, they account for the largest proportion of deaths of all pediatric diseases. The long-term goal of this project is to improve outcomes among these patients. Recently, the intratracheal administration of calfactant has resulted in decreased mortality among children with ALI including promising results among children with cancer and following HSCT. Consequently, the primary specific aim of this study is to assess the effect of calfactant on intensive care (PICU) survival among pediatric leukemia and lymphoma and HSCT patients with ALI. Secondary aims include assessment of the effect of calfactant on oxygenation and on the length of mechanical ventilation, PICU stay, and hospital stay. Calfactant therapy has been found to be of benefit in acute lung injury in the overall pediatric population by improving oxygenation and decreasing mortality. These findings, in conjunction with recent subgroup analysis in which calfactant therapy appeared to improve outcomes in immunocompromised children provide the rationale for assessing calfactant therapy in this patient population.

text: I lucked out many years ago, and acquired a small stash of evenweave handkerchief linen (4th of July sale at a House of Fabrics). It's about 60 count in both directions. I generally go over 2 threads for a stitch, so my finished "count" is about 30 stitches to the inch. I mention this, because when I was in England last year, absorbing all the blackwork I could, I noticed that my stuff seemed to fall right into the middle of the range of things I saw (mostly at the V&A and the Costume Museum in Bath). Some things were done on a coarser linen, and some, finer. There was also a variety of "scale" of the embroideries, but a lot was fairly fine--i.e., the filling patterns for a coif, or some of the patterns on the Bostocke sampler. The V&A had a really neat Islamic exhibit at the time, that featured several strips of embroidery that I took to be interlaced blackwork--the interlace had large-ish open spaces in the design, and these had been embellished with pulled- and drawn-thread embroidery. The fabric and scale on these was nice, but not as fine as some of the stuff upstairs in the Textile Rooms. The fabric for the shift and shirt at the Costume Museum seemed to be about the same weight as mine, perhaps slightly lighter and a little more translucent (e.g., maybe my threads were a little thicker or something?). I recall, as well, a couple of items for outerwear (jackets and such) that were made from a heavier linen, so I'd venture to hazard a guess that the fabric weight was varying depending on intended usage as much as anything. My personal bias, I guess, would be to go with a garment-weight linen (hankie linen, in this case), instead of the evenweave linens made for samplers and such, because the weight of the fabric would be closer to the historical piece (a coif), and it wouldn't be as "coarse." IIRC, Lacemaker sells handkerchief linen (or at least, they used to). I think their website is something like: www.lacemakerusa.com (It'd be easy enough to google for them). That linen is going to be pretty fine, because it's intended for making hankies to put lace edges on. I recall it being pretty darned expensive, but if you were only doing small projects like a coif (as opposed to a whole shift), it wouldn't be so bad. Hedgehog Handiworks may sell it as well, although I don't know for sure. I do know that they sell silk gauze for counted thread work, though. Can't remember their website addy, but they're easy to google for, as well. And there's also my favorite (evil) linen store, fabrics-store.com, which sells an amazing assortment of linens in all kinds of colors and weights, including something they call "hankie linen." I can't speak of the fineness of this, as I've ordered some for a couple of shifts but it hasn't yet arrived, but their other linens I've purchased have all been nice. --sue, certified blackwork geek ;o) sheree krasley wrote: > > I'm currently working on a blackwork coif and was wondering if anyone > has any idea of the thread count of the linen that was used in the > late 16th century?

Dozens of people got into the Christmas spirit Saturday night at South Bend's Martin Luther King Center.
The center and the local Zeta Phi Beta sorority hosted Saturday's tree lighting.
It was an event kids and adults of any age could enjoy.
The theme of this year's tree lighting focuses on celebrating the family.
The event also included a program of singers and dancers.
The hosts of the event say it is their way of giving back to the community during the holiday season.
"It's the tree lighting and are thing is to focus on the family. We're celebrating family. It's that time of the year where you remember your loved ones and come together and share in everything," explains Janice Nichols, Helping Host Tree Lighting.
There were also refreshments and some gifts at Saturday's event.

Senior Member
hells yes!!!!
When I use force of will I'm tired of taking one point of damage and discarding a blue card.
Syndra looks great on paper but with out the QoL changes she needs so badly she is just collecting dust right now.
I think these changes will help her though there is the more problematic issue with Q for me as it isway to slow to go off. The ball appears prior to damage and to me its to clunky. Its timing should be more inline to damage going off as you already get a glow to where it appears. Maybe a .5/.75 sec delay/advance for Q.
Personally I feel E is fine now. W is a little slow for my personal reaction time. And finally fixing R it looks like. I hope the range will stay in as she has mega range on her other casts.
I wish her Q would land more quickly and less mana intensive
I suspect that making the stun actually usable as expected will be sufficient to make Syndra strong. The potential range on it is just nuts, and I'm having a hard time picturing that not having Jayce-esque levels of power for poke comps. IMO hold off on the ultimate range upgrade until the results from the usability of the other abilities are in.
This actually might work, glad to see that you are making it faster to grab minions and spheres.
Grann Brigitte
Syndra has some serious problems which are not adressed by QOL and number changes:
1. Her passive is a really poor design. It does nothing whatsoever until level 9, and at level 9 it provides a moderate damage boost to 1 spells (nobody would ever max the other spells first, because the rewards for those spells is so negligible that a player would likely never notice them (or even the Q upgrade) if not informed in writing. It also completely fails to impart flavor to Syndra- She's not some meditant, she isn't transcending anything or into anything, Syndra wants POWER. In most AP carries, their passive is a huge part of their playstyle and uniqueness. Syndra shouldn't be left out of this!
2. Dark Spheres are all drawback. Pretty much all of Syndra's uniqueness comes from Dark Sphere manipulation, but in most cases even the best usage of Syndra's abilities is worse than easily used abilities in other AP's. Look at Orriana, for example: She gets a similar (but markedly better) Q and similar (but markedly better) W. Her Q even persistently scouts instead of only for a second. The Dark Sphere reliance ends up being 100% downside for most of her abilities; Making a sphere is most of her damage, but you need those spheres to apply her slow outside of lane, to stun enemies, and to empower her ult. This often means being forced to choose between hitting an enemy with q or setting up a stun with q. Getting both on a competent player is ludicrously difficult.
3. Her ultimate is both bland and weak. Single target nukes are horrible to balance, especially as an ultimate. Either the number is too high, and the ability is preposterously broken (see pre-nerf leblanc), or the number is too low, and the ultimate achieves nothing. At the moment, Syndra's ultimate damage is quite high, but it's range makes it very difficult to use it on champions that will not have high mitigation, and it's high cooldown demands that it is used correctly and even sparingly. The ultimate also clusters her spheres around the target, a factor that could be highly interesting but isn't (because spheres don't do much after they are made).
To this end, I would suggest:
Heavy modification of her passive in order to make it into something which ties the champion together instead of just random small bonuses. In this I see two routes: Upgrade the max rank bonus of Transcendence so that maxing an ability significantly changes her play, or replace it with an improved and more flavorful passive.
For the first option, I've had some ideas-
1. Dark Sphere: At maximum ranks, Dark Spheres will emit a pulse of damage 1 seconds after being created or being moved equal to 0.2 x the abilities normal damage
This makes so many of Syndras abilities so much more rewarding. Suddenly, you get bonus damage for Scattering orbs into just the right places, for leading Q's properly, and for ulting well- adding avoidable bonus damage to her ultimate makes it more punishing for bruisers who just want to wade into the thick of things, as opposed to a more mobile ranged. It also rewards you for targeting someone with nearby allies.
At Max ranks, Dark Spheres will produce an entropic link between themselves and the nearest Dark Sphere. This link damages enemies which cross it.
This passive upgrade adds greater interest to her abilities which move spheres. By creating linked spheres and then moving them, Syndra can force enemies to take damage from the links using W and E to change their orientation, and her ultimate creates a dense cluster of links which is hazardous to walk through.
2. At Max rank, Force of Will's cooldown is reduced by 2 seconds for every enemy champion damaged by it.
Force of Will is very, very difficult to hit with. This passive rewards players for doing it well, rather than amplifying it's effects minutely when it does hit
Force of will's range becomes bounded only by visible Dark Sphere's
This makes the ability have greater potential to "catch" an enemy (something the current Force of Will has huge problems with),and rewards players for good sphere placement.
3.At max rank, Scatter the weak increases Scattered orb stun detection by a 200 radius, and the spell width by 50%.
This passive not only makes the orb stun far more usable, but is actually strong enough that a Syndra player might consider building differently to get it earlier.
Scatter the weak becomes cooldownless, instead becoming based on 2 periodically refreshing charges. Multiple Scatter the weak's cast in the same 5 seconds do reduced damage.
This gives Syndra the option to potentially use the ability both offensively and defensively in the same engagement, or to aim orb stuns in multiple directions.
But, if we wanted to give her a cool new passive altogether, I like:
Power-Mad: When Syndra deals damage to an enemy champion with any of her abilities, she gains a fixed percentage/ flat amount of ability power scaling with level for a short period (10 seconds?).
This passive heavily rewards players for landing their skillshots, and further enforces Syndra's playstyle of building damage with Q and W then dropping a cataclysmically large ult on someone.
This passive would give Syndra a unique form of damage scaling to supplement her unreliable utility abilities, and do so much for preventing her from being constantly overshadowed by the slew of AP carries with both better damage and utility.
These passive changes adress problems 1 and 2, but not 3.
For syndra's ultimate to be ''better'', I feel it should have a very short cooldown (relatively speaking, as an ultimate a short cooldown is 15-30 seconds), and no base damage. It would scale exclusively with the number of orbs present. This change really ties the champion together; instead of having one big burst which is clunky and demanding to use, Syndra instead gets a potent and flexible tool for re-arranging her orbs that doesn't feel horribly wasteful to use on a resilient character.
If you read this, thanks! I really like the flavor, appearance, and playstyle of Syndra- I just want her to reach her full potential : )
i can play her perfectly ash she is .........but ...................u wanna make my combo's easier oke i dont mind XD
no sriously i love Riot's attention to its summoner
Ultimately one of the biggest problems I feel with Syndra is scatter the weak. One of an AP's main roles in burst and CC. Syndra's CC simply isn't reliable enough for her to fill the role of an AP champion. I really feel that this ability just kind of needs a rework. A reliable stun could go a long way to making her much more potent.

To start a career in truck driving in Wisconsin, you must first earn a Wisconsin commercial driver's license (CDL). While classes of CDL licenses can vary slightly from state to state, Wisconsin categorizes commercial vehicles as follows:
To obtain a Wisconsin CDL, you must be at least 18 years old, have a valid Wisconsin driver's license, pass a vision exam and obtain a medical certificate. To transport cargo across state lines, federal regulations require truck drivers to be at least 21 years old. The interstate transportation of cargo is regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) and not by state governments. All CDL applicants then need to pass a general knowledge exam and a skills test, which includes a pre-trip vehicle inspection, a basic control test and an on-road driving exam. For the driving test, applicants must test in the class of vehicle for which they would like to obtain a CDL license.
Additional knowledge and skills tests may be required depending on the endorsements you need. For example, endorsements are needed to drive a truck with air brakes, a tanker or a school bus. They are also needed to transport passengers or to haul hazardous materials. To transport hazardous materials (also referred to as a Hazmat endorsement), a Transportation Security Administration (TSA) background check is required. Truck driving schools will provide the training and education needed to pass the CDL requirements in Wisconsin.
Visit the Wisconsin Department of Transportation website for more information.

Plums in preserves: to peel or not?
- Gooseberry Aug 25, 2009 03:24 AM
I'm getting mixed messages as to whether plums should be peeled (i.e. blanched in hot water, then refreshed in cold, and then peeled) before making plum jam, pickles and chutney. Some recipes say to leave the peel on for pectin (specific to jam), some say leave the peel on but only add sugar once the plums are soft, and some say to peel. I'd rather not 'experiment' with 2-gallon quantities, so can anyone enlighten me?
I've made plum chutney with a friend in the past, and she never peels the plums. I'm sure I would have remembered peeling that many plums!
I always leave the peels on the plums. I just made jam from 4 pounds of teeny-tiny plums, and peeling them would have taken hours and reduced the yield to nothing. The final product had visible flecks of plum skin, but texturally, they melted away and were barely detectable. I also think the tartness in the skins is a really nice accent to the sweetness of the plums.
Personally, I think the best way would be to choose a recipe that appeals to your personal taste from a source you trust.
My favorite ever conserve recipe calls for the plums to be chopped but not peeled. It also contains orange peels and pulps, raisins and walnuts. So, as you can see, it's meant to have a lot of texture and the peels of the plums add to the chewiness. That happens to be one of the desired characteristics of this divine (well, IMO, anyway!) concoction.
So, as I say, I think it would depend on desired result. For jam, my impulse is that I wouldn't peel them, either, but I've never made straight plum jam.
It kind of depends on the flavor you're looking for. My mom makes plum preserves with peeled and pitted plums. It comes out lighter in color and sweeter. I just halve the plums and simmer away, peels and pits, and my jam is darker and a little more tart, but with a bright, fresh flavor. By the time the jam has set, the pits are pretty clean and the skins have either "melted" away or are in large enough pieces to just pull out.
I think for pickled plums you'd want them whole, maybe just pricked? I've never made plum chutney, so I'm not familiar with the end product and how plum peels would affect it.
Neither my mom or I use pectin and her jam comes out just as thick as mine, so I can't say the peels really affect it.
I made some plum jams this summer and didn't peel the plums. I did cook the plum pieces for a while before adding the sugar, and it came out great!
I never peel--not plums, not apricots. Too lazy. I did peel the peaches for the last round of peach jam but then peaches are big and easy to peel.
This was a very timely thread! I have a sack of very ripe plums in the kitchen, courtesy of a friend who picked them off her tree yesterday. I've been trying all day to get motivated to peel them all, and I was NOT looking forward to it! Now I think I'll just pit and chop them and make them into preserves, peels and all. Thanks!
re: MsMaryMc
I made a big batch of plum jam yesterday and didn't peel them. Honestly, this is one great looking batch of jam. Ruby red and chock-full of fruit. Best batch yet.
re: amyatkendall
The peels add a lot of flavour, colour, texture, pectin, and tartness (to balance the sugar in the jam), which is why I don't peel them. As someone above mentioned, you can make a peel-free version, but it would end up being quite different.

Honda is recalling nearly 46,000 Odyssey minivans because the rear doors can fall on people unexpectedly, and have on at least two occasions.
The problem affects minivans from the 2008 and 2009 model years that have power lift gates.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says on its website that gas can leak out of the struts that support the lift gates. The doors could close unexpectedly, increasing the risk of injuries.
Honda says the problem has caused two minor injuries. The company will replace both power liftgate struts for free.
Honda will send letters to van owners next month with instructions about the recall.
Owners with questions can call Honda at 1-800-999-1009.

- The Montana judge who sentenced a teacher to only 30 days of a 15-year sentence in prison for the statutory rape of a 14-year-old girl (who later killed herself) has decided his sentence is "illegal" because it is less than the mandatory two-year minimum. Judge Todd Baugh, who said the 14-year-old victim was "in as much control of the situation" as her 49-year-old rapist because children aren't children when sex is involved now, or something, has called for a new hearing this Friday. Let's hope that creepy teacher gets a sentence he deserves. [Jezebel] Keep reading »

Tesla's CEO Musk: Rocket scientist
Send this to a friend
- Staff Portland Business Journal
Tesla Motors CEO and chief product architect Elon Musk, also chairman of SolarCity and founder of rocket maker Space Exploration Technology, wears a lot of hats. Underneath those hats is apparently a very large brain.
At Palo Alto-based Tesla, Musk is credited with solving some of the key design challenges that made it possible for the all-electric engine to have crazy torque. But he's also a chief technology officer and CEO for SpaceX, which this week announced it would make the biggest commercial rocket ever to launch a bunch of stuff into earth's orbit.
SpaceX has already put the first private rocket and space capsule into orbit. And according to the Associated Press, it's planning to launch a pack mule of a rocket in 2013 that could carry twice as much cargo (Take that NASA).
It's unclear how the guy has time to do everything he does. Maybe he doesn't sleep?

More showers are on tap for those wanting to score those Black Friday deals as a stalled boundary continues to pump in the moisture today. Things take a turn for a sharply colder forecast heading into the weekend. Here's a breakdown of what to expect through the weekend forecast:
In case you missed it, here's the 2014 Winter Forecast Special from the Stormtracker 9 Weather Center.
The classrooms at Blodgett Elementary School sat empty Friday after a storm caused outages all around town. The school's principal says they lost power around 10:30 a.m. Thursday and let kids out of class shortly after that.
Highway 242 is officially closed for the season. Half a foot of snow covered the highway by mid-afternoon Thursday, and another eight to ten feet is expected through Friday. ODOT says it's just too difficult to maintain during the winter months.

The 44th annual AppleJack Festival is underway in Nebraska City, celebrating the fruit that used in everything from baking to bobbing.
The festival began Friday and features a car show, arts and crafts fairs, a pancake feed, parade, petting zoo, plenty of food vendors and apple picking.
Apple season normally runs through late October, although an early start to spring this year has the harvest wrapping up sooner than usual. Almost two dozen varieties are harvested in the state.
Apples have been grown in Nebraska since the 1800s. Nebraska City is the apple capital of the state, with its orchards attracting day-trippers eager to load up their vehicles with the savory fruit for making cider, covering with caramel, baking pies or just eating as a snack.
