- Vegetation structure, ecological stability, and low-disturbance regime of abandoned dry grasslands support specific ant assemblages in Central Slovakia (2011)
- Compared to other grassland types across Slovakia, dry grasslands harbour species-rich and specialised ant communities. High diversity and species richness of ants may be seen as a consequence of (i) the specific structure of dry grassland vegetation, (ii) long-term ecological stability, and (iii) currently low or absent management-induced disturbance. With special regard to dry grasslands, we report on structural characteristics of vegetation and low-disturbance regime, which contribute to ant assemblage structure. Our study was carried out in the Štiavnické Vrchy Mts. (Central Slovakia), a region with a historically well-developed grassland area. We established a set of 25 research plots within southorientated grassland habitats representing five different grassland types: wet managed and wet abandoned grasslands, mesic managed and mesic abandoned grasslands (Arrhenatherion elatioris), and dry abandoned grassland habitats (Asplenio-Festucion glaucae). Each habitat type was represented by five plots. At each plot, a set of ten pitfall traps was used to sample ground-foraging ant assemblages. Around each trap, structural characteristics of vegetation and microhabitat were assessed. Dry grasslands were shown to have a specific microhabitat structure, characterised by the presence of a well-developed moss and lichen layer, exposed bedrock, bare soil, and significantly lower, although species-rich vege - tation. Besides the specific microhabitat structure, the absence of management may have contributed to the distinctiveness of these ant assemblages compared to those associated with other grassland categories. Ant assemblages were more species-rich, and the activity of ants was higher in recently abandoned grassland habitats. The effect of abandonment was quite opposite for plants, whose species-richness was, contrary to ants, higher within managed sites.
- Impact of hoofed game and weather on the vegetation of endangered dry grasslands in the Křivoklátsko Biosphere Reserve (Czech Republic) (2011)
- Using four exclosures, the impact of mouflon grazing and weather on plant communities of the phytosociological alliances Koelerio-Phleion phleoidis and Hyperico perforati-Scleranthion perennis occurring on shallow soils within a forest landscape was studied in the Křivoklátsko Biosphere Reserve (Czech Republic) during seven years. In the years 2004–2010, the vascular plant species composition was recorded annually on a total of eight fenced and eight control plots, each 2 m × 1 m in size. Treatment, time, and weather data were used as explanatory variables in ordination and correlation analyses. Cover values of different life forms and indicator values varied significantly in dependence on the weather conditions of the preceding five months; however, correlations varied according to the vegetation type and were rather rarely detected. The effect of fencing appeared important in all study plots; however, the temporal trends were significant only in half of them. We did not find a significant interaction between treatment and time in the total dataset. A successional change was detected in one fenced plot only; in all other cases, the species composition fluctuated – a phenomenon that is not directly attributable to weather conditions. In the fenced plots, the herbaceous vegetation cover decreased, mainly due to litter accumulation and partly due to shrub encroachment. At least some parts of the valuable and species-rich habitats could be maintained under high game density, but some parts are endangered by eutrophication and game grazing. Nature conservation management should balance both mechanisms.
- Unambiguous assignment of relevés to vegetation units: the example of the Festuco-Brometea and Trifolio-Geranietea sanguinei (2011)
- Many current approaches to the formal definition of vegetation units have the disadvantage of leaving a large amount of relevés unclassified. In this paper I propose a new method for the unambiguous assignment of relevés, which is based on the summarised cover value of diagnostic species. In the first step, a relevé is assigned to the class with the highest cover score. For this purpose, the character and differential species of the class as well as the character species of all subordinated syntaxa are considered diagnostic. Once the class has been determined, the assignment proceeds successively to the lower ranks. This method, which may be called "summarised percentage cover approach", uses solely the diagnostic species of syntaxa for the assignment of relevés to vegetation units, making additional formal definitions unnecessary. As a test data set, I used 487 relevés of fringe vegetation and grasslands of nutrient-poor sites sampled in the Vienna Woods (Wienerwald), Austria. All relevés were provisorily classified at alliances level, mostly following the assignment of the original authors. TWINSPAN and DCA were applied to evaluate this preliminary classification. Diagnostic species for both the alliance and the class level were identified using the total cover value ratio as fidelity measure. The subjective classification was largely confirmed by the numerical methods. On basis of the summarised cover of Trifolio-Geranietea and Festuco-Brometea species, between 64% (Geranion sanguinei) and 99% (Seslerio-Festucion pallentis) of the relevés were reassigned to the same class as in the original classification. The fact that a considerable amount of relevés originally classified as Geranion sanguinei was reassigned to grasslands reflects the problems in delimiting fringe communities rather than a poor performance of the assignment method. The "summarised percentage cover approach" allows not only for the unequivocal assignment of relevés to an existing classification system, but may also help to improve classifications by clarifying the delimitation of higher syntaxa.
- Review of the distribution of Somatochlora sahlbergi (Odonata: Corduliidae) (2011)
- Based on data collected from literature, museum collections, national databases and personal communications, an up-to-date map of the worldwide distribution of Somatochlora sahlbergi is presented. A new hypothesis is presented indicating that occurrences are at least regionally correlated with palsa mires. Two examples of larval habitats in Europe are illustrated and described, including the first observation of reproduction in Norway and the first record of co-occurrence with Zygoptera in Europe. The exuvia of S. sahlbergi is illustrated and distinguishing features briefly discussed.
- Odonata of the Cambodian coastal regions revisited: beginning of dry season in 2010 (2011)
- Results of the odonatological survey of the coastal SW regions of Cambodia on November 28 - December 11, 2001, are presented, including field notes, enumeration of all records by locality, discussion of interesting specimens and their taxonomy and of seasonality aspects. Fifteen (14 named) species have been added to the known fauna of Cambodia: Aristocypha fenestrella (Rambur, 1842), Rhinagrion viridatum Fraser, 1938, Lestes elatus Hagen in Selys, 1862, L. platystylus Rambur, 1842, Aciagrion tillyardi Laidlaw, 1919, Agriocnemis f. femina (Brauer, 1868), Archibasis viola Lieftinck, Ceriagrion calamineum Laidlaw, 1951, Mortonagrion aborense (Laidlaw, 1914), M. falcatum Lieftinck, 1934, Pseudagrion microcephalum (Rambur, 1842), 1948, Paragomphus capricornis (Förster, 1914), Hemicordulia undescr. spec., Macrodiplax cora (Brauer, 1867), Nannophya pygmaea Rambur, 1842, plus a provisionally identified Ceriagrion indochinense Asahina, 1976. The country list now achieves 106 named species (not counting Prodasineura verticalis sensu Asahina, 1983, C. indochinense and Hemicordulia sp.). Coeliccia megumii Asahina, 1984 is synonymised with C. kazukoae Asahina, 1984. The differences between Ceriagrion olivaceum Laidlaw, 1914 and C. calamineum Lieftinck, 1951 are discussed.
- Odonata Fauna of Catanduanes Island, Philippines (2011)
- During a two week survey in April 2011, twenty six sites on Catanduanes Island, Philippines were explored. 42 Odonata species are new island records, raising the known species of the island into 60. Among the new island records are three Amphicnemis species new to science.
- Odonata fauna of Diomabok Lake and its surroundings, Davao Oriental, Mindanao Island, Philippines (2011)
- During three visits in October and December 2010 and May 2011, a total of 56 Odonata species was recorded. All species reported here represent first Odonata records in the area. The most noteworthy discoveries were one novelty (Hydrobasileus vittatus) to the Philippine fauna and two first records (Tetracanthagyna brunnea and Aethriamanta gracilis) from Mindanao Island. Seven species represent either new species to science or potentially new species; one Drepanosticta and one Amphicnemis are new to science, and another Drepanosticta, Amphicnemis, Pseudagrion, Gomphidia and Urothemis are potentially new to science.
- Subxerophilous and mesophilous grasslands of the Biele Karpaty Mts. (White Carpathian Mts.) in Slovakia (2011)
- A long-term systematic survey of grassland communities was performed in the Biele Karpaty Mts. in Slovakia. The main aims of the research were i) syntaxonomical classification of meso- and subxerophilous grassland vegetation, ii) analysis of the main gradients in species composition, iii) evaluation of the effect of environmental factors on species composition of grasslands. The data set included 342 phytosociological relevés of grasslands recorded between 1991 and 1999. For the classification of relevés to associations, the expert system for identification of grassland vegetation of Slovakia was used. The main environmental gradients of species composition were analysed by detrended correspondence analysis (DCA). For the ecological interpretation of ordination axes Ellenberg indicator values were used. The relationship between species composition and environmental factors (geology, pedology, climate, topography, management) was analysed by canonical correspondence analysis (CCA). The expert system identified (according to association definitions) 220 phytosociological relevés (64% of the whole data set). Grassland communities were classified within seven associations belonging to four alliances and three classes: Festuco-Brometea: Bromion erecti and Cirsio-Brachypodion pinnati; Molinio- Arrhenatheretea: Arrhenatherion; Nardetea strictae: Violion caninae. The results of the DCA support our assumption that the main environmental gradient in species compositions of grasslands is related to moisture and soil reaction (content of CaCO3 in the soil). The results of the direct gradient analysis (CCA) show that all 23 environmental variables explained 16.15% of the variability of the species data. The most important factors affecting the data variation were precipitation and geological bedrock.

On Impact Wrestling, the mystery investor was revealed, and it turned out to be none other than former WWE star MVP. He showed up in a suit on the entrance ramp at the end of the episode with Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards by his side. The segment signified a change in TNA.
After Royal Rumble 2014 went off the air, Batista got into it with a fan on his way back up the entrance ramp. He threatened to snap the person in half, before the rest of the WWE audience turned on him. Batista then added further fuel to the fire by mocking Daniel Bryan at the top of the rant.
While he is not utilized on television all that frequently, Shark Boy still maintains a working relationship with TNA. The underground masked wrestler is working a dark match for the company in Glasgow today, where he will be working with a British wrestler name Kris Travis.
While Shark Boy did tape two episodes for Impact Wrestling this week, the belief is that his current tenure with TNA is expected to be temporary.
An announcement has been made that Shark Boy will be returning to TNA this week on the special Turning Point edition of Impact Wrestling.

OGDEN, Utah (AP) -- Weber State hired John L. Smith as its football coach after last season and was looking forward to seeing what he could do with his alma mater.
The Wildcats won't get the chance: Smith is returning to Arkansas to lead the Razorbacks as the head coach for at least next season. Arkansas announced the move Monday, saying Smith had agreed to a 10-month contract worth $850,000. He replaces Bobby Petrino, who was fired earlier this month for failing to disclose his affair with a woman he later hired as his assistant.
The 63-year-old Smith is a 1972 graduate of Weber State who spent the last three seasons as an assistant at Arkansas.
Weber State athletic director Jerry Bovee says the "timing of this announcement is problematic" but the school would move forward. Bovee did not immediately name an interim coach.

In a world where everyone is taking photos all the time, it's refreshing to find a real photographer among the thousands of amateurs clogging the internet with poorly executed photos. Jim Dohms creates digital works of art by combining his mastery of traditional photography skills with new digital techniques to create images which can be best described as a new art form. The colors seem to leap right off the page and minute details are enhanced in ways which add depth to the photos and seem to draw the viewer right inside the frame. One of Jim's specialties is motorcycle photography and so he traveled to one of the best motorcycle museums in the world, Wheels Through Time, to capture their unique collection of machines.
Bad Luck Comes In Threes: Brakes, Belts and Drums
Vintage motorcycles have a way of testing a rider's mechanical abilities when they least expect it. Even with a strict maintenance schedule and proper preparation, there is still a chance that you might find yourself pushing your motorcycle down the side of the highway in the middle of the night. Keeping these motorcycles road worthy takes dedication, but for those who have caught the vintage "bug", there is nothing more satisfying than a successful adventure on old iron. Last autumn, my 1964 Duo-Glide put my skills and patience to the test on a trip from North Carolina all the way up to Concord, New Hampshire to attend the Pewter Run. In the end, I completed the trip, but I had a number of "adventures" along the way…
Building a 1933 Harley-Davidson VL: Springer Front End Rebuild
For some reason, the previous owner of my springer decided to paint the entire thing with tan spray paint. Springs, fork legs, rockers, alemite fittings and even the inside bearings surfaces all got a good coat of paint. I wanted to return the front end to a more correct look, which meant that the springs needed to be parkerized and the rest of the parts needed a coating of black enamel. I'm not much of a painter, so I decided to send out the black parts for powder coating while I tackled the springs.
Do It Yourself Tools for Rebuilding Harley-Davidson Springer Front Ends
When I was rebuilding the springer front end for my '33 Harley-Davidson VL, I found it necessary to build a few tools to get the job done correctly. I'll be the first to admit that two of the tools could easily be replaced with a hydraulic press, but the simple tools I designed take up a lot less floor space than even a small press. The only hitch being you'll need a lathe to make these tools or better yet, a friend with a lathe in his shop...
How to Parkerize Motorcycle Parts
If you've ever looked closely at the fasteners on an old Harley-Davidson, you'll have noticed that many of them are dark grey or black in color. This is not the result of age or weathering, but was purposely done at the factory to prevent the corrosion of steel parts. The process is known as parkerizing and for the chemists out there, it is an electrochemical phosphate conversion process using either a zinc or manganese base. Even though that may sound complex, the actual process is cheap and easy to perform at home which just a few supplies. Most of which you can pick up at your local Walmart.

Following a 7-4 victory over San José State Friday, the Colorado State softball team will enter the final day of the regular season with the chance to win its first Mountain West championship since 2004.
May 9, 2014
FORT COLLINS, Colo. – The Colorado State softball team will enter the final day of the regular season with the chance to win its first Mountain West championship since 2004.
In order to do so, a lot still has to go the Rams' way, but following a 7-4 victory over San José State Friday afternoon, the Rams remain in contention.
The Rams (32-15, 13-9 MW) out-hit the Spartans, 11-6, including three from senior Ashlie Ortega. She had two RBI, as did senior Alysa Greckel and junior Danielle Wikre.
CSU took a 2-1 lead in the first, the initial run coming on a Chelsea O'Connor double. It was her 66th RBI of the season, tying a single-season program record with Sarah Fredstrom (1997). San José State (28-24, 11-11 MW) scored three times in the fifth inning to take a 4-3 lead, but the Rams rallied for four in the bottom of the sixth to turn the tables.
One of Greckel's RBI came on her second home run of the season, while Wikre's pair came during the Rams' big sixth inning.
"I think the early runs gave us a good lift," Head Coach Jen Fisher said. "(Greckel)'s been due for that for awhile, because she's been hitting the ball hard and making a lot of loud outs. It was good to see her get all of that one, and it encouraged us that we could get runs on board."
Holly Reinke earned her 20th win of the season (20-9), tied for third-most in program history. She allowed three earned runs and struck out two.
Friday's second game was suspended entering the sixth inning due to darkness. The game will pick back up at 10 a.m. Saturday with the Rams trailing, 9-6. CSU's regular-season finale – originally scheduled for 1 p.m. Saturday – will begin immediately following.
Trailing 2-0 early, freshman Haley Hutton hit a second-inning grand slam – her third home run of the season – to put the Rams on top. San José State would rally for four runs over the next two innings, however, to regain the lead. The game was then delayed for approximately 50 minutes due to rain.
Immediately after the delay, CSU scored twice to tie the score at 6-6 after four innings of play. Kendal Butterfield walked with one out prior to the delay, and after the tarp was pulled, Hutton singled to put runners at second and third. Junior outfielder Shae Rodriguez then hit a two-run single to center to tie the game.
The Spartans scored three two-out runs in the top of the fifth to regain the lead, putting the score at 9-6 when the game was suspended.
Following Saturday's second game, the team will honor its six seniors – Butterfield, Chelsea Biglow, Greckel, O'Connor, Ortega and Emily Pohl.
With two wins Saturday and a Boise State victory over San Diego State, the Rams will clinch a share of their first conference title since 2004. However, if Fresno State and UNLV also lose, CSU can win the league's automatic bid to the NCAA tournament. It would be the Rams' first postseason appearance since winning the MW tournament in 2003.
"The focus is a win," Fisher said. "It's been like that for a long time. I know these ladies want to win, so it's a chance to gather ourselves since we're down three. We have to regroup and get people on base one pitch at a time."
Regardless of what plays out on the field Saturday, CSU has already earned the most victories since 2004, the fifth-best winning percentage in program history, and the third-best home winning percentage.

November 26, 2014
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - A San Francisco firefighter has filed a legal claim alleging fire officials falsely identified her to the media as the person responsible for killing a 16-year-old survivor of the Asiana Airlines crash.
According to Elyse Duckett's claim, fire officials wanted to protect the firefighter who first ran over Ye Meng Yuan and was responsible for her death.
The San Francisco Chronicle reported the claim on Monday. The newspaper reports footage shows Duckett's rig was the second to roll over Meng Yuan, who was covered in fire foam. The girl was one of three people killed in the July 6 crash.
Such claims are generally precursors to lawsuits. Duckett is seeking $300,000 in damages.
City and fire officials didn't immediately respond to messages left early Tuesday by The Associated Press.

JACKSONVILLE—A new entrance to Coastal Carolina Community College may soon be in sight after months of delays.
The new back entrance, located on County Club Road, was designed to alleviate traffic on Western Boulevard, where the only entrance to the college is currently located. It was originally slated to open in February, but contractors found water underneath the road which forced them to close it off.
According the The Jacksonville Daily News, contractors must confirm how long the water could potentially stay under the new entrance before construction can resume.

Edit Multiple tasks
Is there a quick way to select multiple tasks, and edit their labels/priority all at once (just like how you can move them all to a project)?
All responses
Hi There,
As you already know, you can CTRL click tasks and they will provide a new menu to edit those tasks. We will consider adding more options from within that menu in future updates.
Is there a way of editing multiple tasks on iphone?
Hi Christopher,
Unfortunately, there's no way to edit multiple tasks as now in the iOS App. You can however add feature request in the votebox here: https://todoist.com/Vote/. In here, other fellow Todoist users can vote for ideas that they like.
+1 for multiselection used for modifying multiple task at once.
I am using the app since few days and this is the most missed feature!
Yep,multiple task-configuration would be helpful!
Agreed!! Please.
Definately! It would be very helpful!

I work in a studio in the woods in Boughton under Blean. My interests are the local woodland landscape illuminated by crepuscular moonlight and the traces left by past inhabitants. I constantly re-visit preferred sites, then re-work and re-order. Exploring beyond the evident I seek to reveal images as ciphers and signs of the unknown. Pieces of memory to entice and beguile.
I portray an inner landscape where we can experience a sense of rhythmic energy and vitality in observation, reminding us of where we have come from and our ultimate destiny.

Gives the frame its character and provides the perfect setting for an artwork to be fully enjoyed.
Protects the artwork from dust and wilting so that it can be admired for many years.
Adds depth to an image and works with the moulding to enhance and protect the artwork.
Bonds to the artwork ensuring it is perfectly smooth and holds the whole frame together.
We partner with the world's top museums and galleries to bring you exclusive prints of the highest quality. Our teams of designers ensure the colours are accurate, papers are well suited and the best frames are suggested.
In the printing room, artworks are printed on state-of-the-art machines with a team of technicians checking colour and quality every step of the way.
After being cut down to size, our team carefully finish any stray edges, check measurements and prepare the prints for mounting and framing.
We have a team of master framers who work with high-quality, responsibly-sourced wood to create our vast range of framing combinations - each frame is bespoke and made to order for every print.
Our selection of hand-finished frames are painted or stained by hand in a variety of colours, and finished with a layer of wax - the end result is a uniquely crafted, beautiful frame that is made to last.
In this workshop everything comes together - the print, the frame and the glass - in a seamless and stream-lined process.
The artwork is carefully mounted in preparation for framing.
Once mounted, the print is ready to be covered by glass or perspex - a delicate procedure but expertly done with not a fingerprint in sight.
After a final, thorough check, the framed print is ready to be carefully packaged up and shipped to the customer.
For those who order their art as canvas prints, the same amount of attention and care goes into the process. Here, the print is being transferred to a wooden frame.
As with the framed prints, our canvases are all hand-finished in the workshop - a labour of love from start to finish.

FORT WAYNE – Hoosiers could be prosecuted for photographing or videotaping embarrassing or illegal activity at farming or industrial operations and then distributing the images to defame or harm the business.
Senate Bill 373 passed the Senate 30-20 on Tuesday. All area senators supported the measure, which now moves to the Indiana House.
The bill's author, Sen. Travis Holdman, R-Markle, said vigilantes gain access to private property to take images – sometimes through the ruse of being an employee. Many of them are animal activists looking for evidence of possible abuse.
We have law enforcement. We have regulatory agencies. We don't need folks out there taking the law into their own hands, he said.
The bill does not affect any photos or videos taken while on public property.
Proponents called the measure a protection of private-property rights, while opponents said it erodes whistleblower protections.
An amendment was added as an effort to protect whistleblowers, and Holdman said the bill allows those recording the images to turn them over to authorities. They still are not allowed to disseminate anything publicly or would face prosecution for an infraction.
Sen. Karen Tallian, D-Portage, questioned whether the law violates Indiana's constitutional free press protections.
It says, No law shall be passed, restraining the free interchange of thought and opinion, or restricting the right to speak, write, or print, freely, on any subject whatever: But for the abuse of that right, every person shall be responsible.
She noted that if someone witnesses and records illegal dumping of waste into rivers or other environmental or safety hazards, Indiana law should not infringe on making that information public.
Sen. Tim Lanane, D-Anderson, said the bill also goes against long-held civil law that the truth is a defense in all libel and defamation cases.
The truth is not defense in a court of law. Did you ever think we would pass a law that said that? he asked.
Lanane said a person could commit a crime when making public a truthful act, but the business would lose a civil case for defamation because truth always prevails.
Holdman countered that he holds private property rights as sacred.

These are fragile, pretty iced tea glasses. Unfortunately, the style is not very stable. They are very easy to knock over and break. They do tend to keep beverages cold, but they are not as effective at insulating the beverage as I had hoped. The pre-Christmas sale price and free shipping coupon made them a more attractive price.
My husband and I have used these glasses for cold drinks only, so far. The borosilicate glass and double-wall design does prevent condensation on the outside of the glass, which is nice. They do seem to keep cold drinks colder than a regular soda-lime glass would.
However, within two washes, one of the glasses shattered in the dishwasher. The manufacturer recommends against packing them tightly or handling them roughly in the dishwasher, but I think we followed both instructions pretty well.
I would recommend these glasses only for folks who are willing to hand-wash them after each use, and for households without children.
These glasses are very 'tipsy', because they are wider at the top than the base, and they are VERY, VERY fragile.
4.5 out of 5 stars, based on 44 ratings
90% of reviewers recommend this product
84% say this is a "good value"
Are they fragile? Yes, they are. I knocked one over in the middle of the night and have learned my lesson. The lesson is this: don't bang these glasses around, don't drop them, and don't dump them into a sink with other dishes. If you follow these rules, you will be rewarded with a very nice product that keeps cold drinks cold and hot drinks hot. Very aesthetically pleasing, too. Every time we use these at a party, we get compliments on the beauty of the drink. We now have these in three sizes, and if I had cupboard room, we'd have even more sizes.
We bought a few more of these glasses to make a whole set because we like them so much. They are one of the few that can hold a whole 12 soda plus ice. Everyone always comments on how cool they when new people see them. The only shortcomming would be that they are not a great glass around kids. They are fairly fragile and cost a little too much to keep replacing.

replace Sabatier?
- d
- dotdarling Jul 9, 2010 06:01 AM
I want to buy my husband, who is a professional chef, a new chef's knife for his birthday. He's had the same Sabatier (don't know which model) for about 15 years. He doesn't care for Global because they feel too light and the handle doesn't feel substantial enough. He has large hands and likes to feel a bit of 'heft' in the knife. Any suggestions? I was thinking about Wusthof.
We have owned our Wusthof set for about 30 years. They are perfectly balanced, and still get razor sharp using a shapening steel--I have never had to have them professionally resharpened. If Wusthof has maintained its quality, you can't go wrong with their knives.
If he likes a heavier knife, than Wusthof is a great choice. I would suggest him to try to handle the Ikon Classic or Ikon Blackwood knives.
They are more expensive than the Wusthof Classic, but the Ikon does have better a handle and a reduced bolster (aka partial bolster) which makes knife sharpening much easier. Ikon knvies are avaliable in Williams Sonoma stores if he wants to handle them. I think they are also avaliable in Sur La Table, but I am not sure.
Messermeister is also another brand of German knives which I heard decent thing about.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Thanks for the tip on the Wusthof Ikon. I want to make sure I get a knife with a good handle since that is the main problem he has with many of the Japanese knives. The handles seem to be too narrow/small. I appreciate the craftsmanship of the Japanese blades, but the handle size and weight are a problem for him - unless anyone out there knows of a Japanese brand with bigger handles.
re: dotdarling
RichardL has a good point. The German Chef's knife has a different knife profile than a French Chef's knife. Interestingly, Japanese gyuto has a more similar knife profile with the French Chef's. You should able to find a Gyuto with a longer handle, but you will not able to find one with the weight and heft of a German Chef's knife.
I wouldn't even bother with a commercial knife like a Wusthof if I were you. Why not spend an extra $30 and get something completely unique, beautiful, and useful? Look at the link above. I'm by no means affiliated with this guy, but I do own 2 of his knives. This way you stick with carbon steel...
He may also be attached to the French shape of blade rather than the German one. If you want to replace the Sabatier, www.thebestthings.com has some old carbon steel ones that I like a lot. They also have them in stainless, which have the same blade shape but I don't think they take as keen an edge.
re: Richard L
Thank you for the website link. I've been buying my Sabatier knives from PCD but they've cut back on their stock. Now, thanks to you, I have a new source.
I bought my first Sabatier in France in the early 1960s and it's still going strong. I've added more knives over the years and needed a source for gifts. I've just ordered three for my eldest son.
dotdarling, is it possible to ask your husband why he wants to replace his Sabatier? Knives are very personal, it's not like buying a shirt for someone. If he uses this daily, it could be difficult to replace with another shape. I know from work experience that a Sabatier chef's knife (mine is the 10") is a great tool. I'd look for it first in case of a fire! I cannot fathom wanting to replace these knives.
re: Sherri
"Knives are very personal, it's not like buying a shirt for someone."
Absolutely again. Then again, it is always fun to have another knife to play around.
Unless he has been in misery for the past 15 years I can't imagine wanting to part with the Sabatier. My Sabatier **** Elephants have been in our family since the mid seventies and I would stop talking to someone if they threw them out (not saying that is your intention). Maybe it's the extra dedication that they need along with their abilities that causes the bond between Sabatier fans and their knives. The handle materials that are currently offered are different than mine but all the shapes are identical. Edit: {with the exception of one paring knife.} I discovered this is actually a Sabatier **** Elephant Nogent and it is also identical to what is currently offered in the Nogent line..
Has your husband actually said he wants to replace the Sabatier? Mine is fifty years old, I have used it every day, and would sooner plunge it into someone before I allowed them to take it away! Since he has been using it for fiteen years, I cannot imagine him liking a German knife. They are heavier, and to a Sabatier devotee, clumsier. Maybe a gift certificate to a shop that carries Sabatier, along with other things that would interest a chef?
re: Caroline1
He's been happy with his Sabatier, but after having them professionally sharpened his chef's knife came back with a chip at the tip. The man who did it said that it was already there...Anyway he needs a new knife and he's mentioned Wusthof before. The only knives I know he wouldn't want would be Global (for the reason I mentioned above) and for some reason - Henckels. As this is a birthday gift, even if the knife I choose isn't his ultimate preference, he still gets a new knife to add to his collection and can always get another Sabatier if he still wants to.
re: dotdarling
Lee Valley has Sabatier knives, and the 10" chef's is $129 with free shipping. (That offer ends tomorrow!)
re: dotdarling
My 10" Sabatier is 50 years old and has NEVER been professionally sharpened. I steel it every time I take it out of the knife block, and it has a fantastic edge. I have another chef's knife I did have professionally sharpened, and it was like getting a divorce. Doesn't feel the way it used to, doesn't slice the way it used to, and it has a "hook" in the edge as it reaches the bolster. So now it sits in the knife block and thinks it's invisible. And to me, it is. Maybe getting your husband a really great sharpening steel is the answer? I highly recommend antiques. Mine was my great grandfather's and has a horn handle and a sterling silver guard and it puts an edge on knives like Gillette! Really sorry to hear what the "professional" knife sharpener did. Here's hoping the guy catches chicken pox!
re: Caroline1
Thanks for idea of a sharpening steel. He has one, but I'm not sure of its quality. An antique one would be a great additional gift. My husband was wishing for something more than chicken pox to befall the 'professional' sharpener:)
re: dotdarling
Well, I was thinking about bubonic plague for the knife sharpener, but that would endanger others a lot more than chicken pox.
Since you live in Ireland, you're probably placed just right for finding a great antique steel. My great grandfather was a butcher in Sunderland, but I have no idea where the steel was made. I would expect to find a MUCH greater selection in your part of the planet than in mine. Good luck!
re: dotdarling
I think you have a lot of options here. By the way, are you interested in a stainless steel knife or a carbon steel knife. That will narrow down quiet a bit. You have the option of going for a French Chef's, a German Chef's or a Japanese Gyuto. It depends what you seek for in a knife. Strength or toughness? High performance or all around ability.
Japanese knives can be very high performance oriented. SaltyDog on youtube have numerous videos which show he has adapted Japanese knives in his professional kitchen.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Thanks for giving me one more thing to think about! I was assuming stainless steel, but now I'm not sure. He's most interested in a good all-round performer that stays sharp (with the proper care of course).
re: dotdarling
Wusthof makes nice stainless steel Chef's knives which are good all-around performer. They can take a good amount of abuses. Most Japanese knives are made from harder steel and are sharpener to a lower angle. These allow Japanese knives to make better precision cuts, but they are not designed to handle tough jobs, like cutting chicken bone or lobster shell.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Chem I know you like knives. If you don't have a Sabatier **** Elephant you should try one, I think you will enjoy it. While I know you have posted dislike for a 6" Cook's/utility knife it is actually my favorite knife.
re: SanityRemoved
Thanks. I like to play with knives. I don't have a Sabatier, but I am keeping my eyes open. I am considering getting one of the followings for my next knife: a carbon-steel Sabatier Chef's knife, a carbon steel wa-handle Nakiri or a stainless steel Santoku. I had a Santoku during college, but it wasn't a very good one.
I heard the whole Sabatier thing is very confusing, because Sabatier stands for knives from assorted manufacturers. It is almost like saying "Solingen" knives. I believe the Thiers-issard Elephant one is the good one. I also heard the carbon steel Elephant knives are pretty good, but the stainless steel ones are average. Do these sound right to you?
Yeah, I don't dislike a short Che'f knife, but not an utility knife. To me, a short Chef's knife looks like this:
Whereas an utility knife is like this:
I know I willrepeatedly bang my knuckles onto my cutting board with an utility knife because of the lack of clearance.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Yes the **** (four star) Elephants have been around a long time and as far as I can tell the quality has remained high for the carbon steel whereas the other Sabatiers (non-Thiers-Issard) have been known to be all over the place and benefit from the name recognition that Thiers-Issard built.. I've never used the stainless steel ones. They may be good but the carbon steels are what they are known for. I don't believe that the Sabatier's are as short as the Henckels but I can't really discern a difference between the pictures that they have for the two styles Chef's(Cook's) vs utility.
re: SanityRemoved
Thanks. Your advices are about what I heard. I am looking at olive wood handle knives. The Sabatier Chef's Knife 6" is the same as the Sabatier Slicing/Ultility knife 6". I don't mean they are similar. I mean the two photos are exactly the same. The pattern on the olive wood handles are the same.
Interestingly, there is a difference for blackwood handle knives. For the blackwood knives, the 6" Chef's knife has a wider blade than the 6" ultiliy knife. I think the blackwood photos are correct.
Has he been able to hold a Shun Classic chef's knife? These knives are heavier than some others & the "D" handle is larger than many. (In fact, while I love my smaller-handled 6" Shun utility knife, I don't like holding the larger-handled Shun knives because of their size.) I think the blade shape is more German than French.
It's also made from excellent VG-10 stainless steel, which will hold its edge wonderfully & require very little maintenance to keep sharp.
re: Eiron
I like my Shuns, but they are distinctly lighter than Wusthof. Another option is a Mac. I have used but never owned one. If I were starting again I would et one of those
One other thing to consider, and this is way out in terms of your request, is a CCK cleaver. But it is only useful for veg prep. It is my sharpest knife.
Incidentally, do you know if he wants stainless steel or carbon?
re: Paulustrious
dotdarling (the original post) would like to get a stainless steel Chef's knife for her husband, but it seems to be a weak preference.
re: Paulustrious
Thanks to Paulustrious and Chemicalkinetics, I am a CCK convert.
Wonderfully thin, sharp, low cost carbon steel cleavers and knives.
If you are lucky enough to live in Ontario, they have a store in Pacific Mall.
Otherwise, order from the small hand made source in Hong Kong.
re: jayt90
:) I am glad that it works out for you. Your picture:
The thin blade KF1303 is a pretty good knife. Inexpensive, very thin and easy to sharpen. Once it is sharpen, the knife performs even better. It just glides through food without much resistance.
By the way, Jay, what happened to your "Maybe Doubleside Waterstone"? Last time we chatted, I guessed that one side is waterstone and the other side is something else. Were you able to find out more? Or able to return it?
re: Chemicalkinetics
What about IO Shen? They seem to go over pretty well with some of the top chefs in England.
re: Chemicalkinetics
I tried to return it it but the store manager insisted it was a waterstone.
Still haven't used it, but will try it on an old Sabatier CS.
The cleavers have been superb with just a few steelings.
Really like the clang!
CCK said the cheaper stone (Paul has it?) will soon be in stock but I haven't gone back.
I'll be back, especially for the hammered wok.
re: jayt90
Maybe it is a waterstone. Yes, you are right. I almost forgot that CCK also sells Chinese cookware, though limited.
re: dotdarling
I don't know much about IO Shen which is why I didn't reply earlier. It has the similar look to Western-Japanese knives like Shun. As you can see here IO Shen uses a very hard steel at Rockwell Hardness 62 and sharpened to 15o angle bevels.
This is very similar to Shun Classic knives which are HRC 61 at 16o angle. In comparison, Henckels and Wusthof knvies are about 56-58 HRC and sharpen to >20 angles (Ikon is one exception). So you can see an IO Shen knife will behave more like a Shun than a Wusthof.
Your IO Shen knife will be on the higher performance end, but less all-around. So it will give more control and provide better precision cuts than a Wusthof, but it probably cannot handle tough jobs like a Wusthof can, like hacking bones or cracking lobster shell.
Please update us when you have a chance. Best wishes.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Thanks CK,
The knife was delivered today. I'm no expert, but it is gorgeous and feels more substantial than Global. The tai tang handle is a work of art. Also received very detailed sharpening instructions with it. Husband's birthday is in a few weeks. I'll post his reaction then.
How thick is the spine on the Sabatier **** Elephant Carbon Steel knives? I have a rather thin chefs knife and am looking to pic up something a little thicker for tougher jobs...never held the Sabatier.
The verdict is in. My husband loves his I.O. Shen 9 1/2" chef's knife. He likes the look, the feel and the performance. Prefers it to his old Sabatier! Told his chefs at work that no one else touches it without his permission. He let them try it out and they were all impressed. He said that I now have his birthday and Christmas presents locked up for a while as there are 12 knives in the range:)
re: dotdarling
:) Thanks for the update. What about buying him knives from different vendors? Like one I.O. Shen, one Shun, one Tojiro, one Hiromoto... Just a thought.
re: Chemicalkinetics
What are you thinking! What if she did that and he liked one of the other knives better? That would taint the joy of the I O Shen! Have you never heard of letting sleeping dogs lie? '-)
re: Caroline1
Actually, I have never heard of "letting sleeping dogs lie" until today, which I just looked up. I learnt something. Thanks.
Nevertheless, she has already tainted his original joy on the Sabatier with the new I.O. Shun, right? Let another knife comes in and ruins the I.O. Shen. It is called revenge. Why can't another knife takes revenge for the old Sabatier? Huh?
re: Chemicalkinetics
Your wickedness is showing! The obvious answer is Gift Certificates! And if he buys a knife that makes the Shen look bad, then he's the one who woke the napping puppy, not her! Peace. '-)
Caroline, who still likes her Sabatiers best.
re: Caroline1
Actually, I rather enjoy having several different brands. I find myself sometimes picking a particular knife for its shape, sometimes for its length, sometimes for its weight/balance, & sometimes for its edge characteristics. And I might be cutting the same item each time!
re: Chemicalkinetics
OK, so you're a little more obsessed than I am. :-D I don't usually switch in the middle of a cutting job (although I have; I just don't usually do it). I usually cut the same items on different days using a different knife from the last time I cut up those items. One benefit I've discovered is that I can really tell which knives need sharpening! Mostly, I just like feeling the differences between each brand's opinion of what makes a nice knife.
re: Eiron
I don't switch knives all the time. Occasionally, I said. Maybe 10% of the time.
You should get a single bevel knife if you don't have one. Their edges are sharper than almost any double bevel knife. That said, their blades are usually very thick, so the wedging pressure is worse.
So when I am slicing thin or cutting small items, the single bevel usuba feels sharper: less resistance and little sound (it has less of that splitting the vegetable sound). When I am cutting big chunks of large items, then the usuba get wedged in the foods and give more resistance.
Get a relatively inexpensive single bevel knife to play around.
re: Chemicalkinetics
I got a single bevel carbon steel slicer from Japan, thin spine, for $70 at CCK,Pacific Mall, Toronto. That place is amazing.
re: jayt90
The CCK headquarter at Hong Kong sells Japanese made Japanese style knives (as opposed to Chinese made Japanese styles knives). Here:
Does your knife look like one of those knives in the above link? The top two are Masamoto knives. You can see the online store Japanesechefsknife also sells these knives:
I didn't expect the Canadian CCK store also carry them -- mostly because it looks like a small size store from the photos.
re: Chemicalkinetics
Yes it looks like the top knife (8.5" blade, 14" total length.) The markings are different.
They have a deba that looks like the second knife, at $120, so that will be my next one, now that I see it is a good price.
It is a small shop with a lot of stock; seems to have a cult following in the knife forums, so we are lucky to have the Pacific Mall outlet.
re: jayt90
Can I just unconfuse myself? Are you saying the Pacific Mall CCK definitely sells the Japanese knives. I don't remember that.
re: Paulustrious
Yes, there were two carbon steel and one SS in the display window.
Apparently Masamoto origin.
re: jayt90
Maybe not Masamoto, since you said the characters or markings are different the photo I showed. The marking for Masamoto should be like "正本", reading them while holding the knife with its tip at top and handle at bottom:
Neverthless, $70 for a yanagiba is fairly inexpensive. I am also surprised that they have a deba at %120 while the yanagiba at $70. I am guessing they are made by different manufacturers because usually a yanagiba costs more than a deba -- when they are of the same brand.
re: Chemicalkinetics
The Japanese characters resemble the 6th knife (second last) as well as the shape.
There is also gold foil as in the photo.
re: jayt90
I tried to search this "金楠" knife, but nothing turns up. I know it is a Japanese style knife, but I am not sure if it is made in Japan. If I find anything more, I will let you know.
re: dotdarling
Congratulations! You have strolled the bramble path of selection and come out unscathed. Good job! And thanks for letting us know. You're a very thoughtful person!
I loved this tread and could not wait to find out what knife Chef would end up with, not to mention learned so much more about chef's knives. Thanks but a little sad that this little Novelas had to end.
Now, now everyone. Let's all play nice:) I think I'll stick to getting him the rest of the line as gifts (over time of course). He may like a different knife better, but the opposite could occur. Besides, he really, really likes this knife. (insert picture here of me patting myself on the back for a job well done)
re: dotdarling
I will weigh in, though quite late, with my experience with Wildfire Cutlery carbon steel kitchen knives. I bought an odd shaped knife, on a suggestion from my physical therapist. I have very little grip left in my right hand ( MS ), yet still love to prep and cook. I had not been able to use my expensive knives for over a year and it was getting me down. Michael called me, we worked out a design together. he charge me $100 for the knife and all the time he spent working out the piece. I am going to try to post a photo he sent before he shipped it. Needless to say, I now can work at my prep board again. The edge is as good as any knife I have ever used ( I am a former chef) and the workmanship is on beyond. Wood is Australian iron bark. Now I press down and can cut anything, along with the sawing motion. Clearly a hand made knife made with love. (click foto) Thanks.

Structure of the Mathematics Domain
The Mathematics domain is organised into six sections, one for each level of achievement from Levels 1 to 6. Each level includes a learning focus statement and a set of standards organised by dimension. A glossary is included which provides definitions of or additional information about underlined terms.
Learning focus
Learning focus statements are written for each level. These outline the learning that students need to focus on if they are to progress in the domain and achieve the standards at the levels where they apply. They suggest appropriate learning experiences from which teachers can draw to develop relevant teaching and learning activities.
Standards define what students should know and be able to do at different levels and are written for each dimension. In Mathematics, standards for assessing and reporting on student achievement apply from Level 1. Standards for Structure are introduced from Level 3.
Standards in the Mathematics domain are organised in five dimensions:
- Number
- Space
- Measurement, chance and data
- Structure
- Working mathematically.
The Number dimension focuses on developing students' understanding of counting, magnitude and order. The natural (counting) numbers with zero extend to positive and negative signed whole numbers (integers) and through part-whole relations and proportions of whole numbers to the rational numbers (fractions and finite decimals or infinite recurring decimals).
Proportions of lengths involving sides and/or diagonals of right-angled triangles and rectangles and arcs of a circle lead to the introduction of certain irrational real numbers such as the square root of 2, the golden ratio phi and fractions or multiples of pi.
Principal operations for computation with number include various algorithms for addition (aggregation), subtraction (disaggregation) and the related operations of multiplication, division and exponentiation carried out mentally, by hand using written algorithms, and using calculators, spreadsheets or other numeric processors for calculation.
The Space dimension focuses on developing students' understanding of shape and location. These are connected through forms of representation of two- and three-dimensional objects and the ways in which the shapes of these objects and their ideal representations can be moved or combined through transformations. Students learn about key spatial concepts including continuity, edge, surface, region, boundary, connectedness, symmetry, invariance, congruence and similarity.
Principal operations for computation with space include identification and representation, construction and transformation by hand using drawing instruments, and also by using dynamic geometry technology.
Measurement, chance and data
The Measurement, chance and data dimension focuses on developing students' understanding of unit, measure and error, chance and likelihood and inference. Measure is based on the notion of unit (informal, formal and standard) and relates number and natural language to measuring characteristics or attributes of objects and/or events. Various technologies are used to measure, and all measurement involves error.
Students learn important common measures relating to money, length, mass, time and temperature, and probability – the measure of the chance or likelihood of an event. Other measures include area, volume and capacity, weight, angle, and derived rates such as density, concentration and speed.
Principal operations for computation with measurement include the use of formulas for evaluating measures, the use of technology such as dataloggers for direct and indirect measurement and related technologies for the subsequent analysis of data, and estimation of measures using comparison with prior knowledge and experience, and spatial and numerical manipulations.
The Structure dimension focuses on developing students' understanding of set, logic, function and algebra. It is fundamental to the concise and precise nature of mathematics and the generality of its results. Key elements of mathematical structure found in each of the dimensions of Mathematics are membership, operation, closure, identity, inverse, and the commutative, associative and distributive properties as well as other notions such as recursion and periodic behaviour.
While each of these can be considered in its own right, it is in their natural combination as applied to elements of number, space, function, algebra and logic with their characteristic operations that they give rise to the mathematical systems and structures that are embodied in each of these dimensions.
Principal operations for computation with structure include mental, by hand and technology-assisted calculation and symbolic manipulation by calculators, spreadsheets or computer algebra systems, with sets, logic, functions and algebra.
Working mathematically
Working mathematically focuses on developing students' sense of mathematical inquiry: problem posing and problem solving, modelling and investigation. It involves students in the application of principled reasoning in mathematics, in natural and symbolic language, through the mathematical processes of conjecture, formulation, solution and communication; and also engages them in the aesthetic aspects of mathematics.
In this dimension the nature, purpose and scope of individual work is connected to that of the broader mathematical community, and the historical heritage of mathematics through the discourse of working mathematically. Mental, by hand and technology-assisted methods provide complementary approaches to working mathematically.
Relationships between the dimensions
Number is related to the other dimensions through the aspects of counting, magnitude and order. It has logical and natural connections with Measurement, chance and data, and Space. Number systems provide the basis for the development of algebraic relationships in Structure and the contexts and explorations used in Working mathematically.
Space is related to the Number and Measurement, chance and data dimensions through the aspects of shape and location. The properties of patterns, transformations, and symmetry provide links to Structure and Working mathematically.
Measurement, chance and data is related to the Number and Space dimensions through the aspects of units, error, approximation, likelihood, angle, and the properties of two- and three-dimensional shapes. The application of measurement formulas and functions provide a link to Structure. A varied collection of practical contexts for generating and testing conjectures provides links to Working mathematically.
Structure is related to the Number, Space and Measurement, chance and data dimensions through the use of algorithms, patterns and functions. It is linked to Working mathematically through the key elements of mathematical language, concepts and relationships used in modelling and investigations.
Working mathematically is related to the Number, Space and Measurement, chance and data dimensions through the exploration of algorithms, patterns and functions, shapes and dimensions. It provides the processes for the development of inferences and deductions and for the exploration and proof of conjectures related to the Structure dimension.
