Senate Bill 2573, sponsored by state Senators Harold Metts (D-6), Rhoda Perry (D-3), Juan Pichardo (D-2), Paul Jabour (D-5) and Elizabeth Crowley (D-16), is a dramatic departure from current law and completely overturns state pre-emption of firearms. This bill would allow anti-gun localities to impose whatever gun control measures they desire, and strip the state of its ability to regulate firearms. This dangerous and sweeping bill needs to be defeated.
Senate Bill 2582, sponsored by state Senators Paul Jabour, Juan Pichardo, Harold Metts, Maryellen Goodwin (D-1) and Elizabeth Crowley, could threaten youth shooters and hunters with criminal prosecution. S.2582 is the Senate version of H.7605 and H.7881, which have already been heard in the House Judiciary Committee. Last week, the House Judiciary Committee voted to hold H.7881 for further consideration. Advertised as anti-crime/anti-gang bills, these bills would have serious implications for youth shooters.
While S.2582 appears to make only a slight change in current law, it could have grave ramifications for those prosecuted under it. Currently, a youth is not in violation unless he possessed AND USED a firearm. If these bills are enacted into law, a minor could be prosecuted for possession of a firearm if borrowing a parent's vehicle and pulled over with a gun in that vehicle. The law does not distinguish actual intent over legitimate use. S.2582 attempts to create exceptions, but those narrow exceptions would leave youth shooters vulnerable to prosecution. The "use" of a firearm under current law clearly signals intent, but by removing it, minors can be unjustly prosecuted. S.2582 is a perfect example of an anti-gun bill that would do nothing to prevent crime and only put another overbroad and unnecessary law on the books. Similar legislation has been annually introduced and defeated in the Rhode Island General Assembly for several years, but proponents are pushing hard to adopt these bills this session. Please contact members of the Senate Judiciary Committee IMMEDIATELY and respectfully ask them to oppose S.2573 and S.2582. Contact information for committee members is provided below.

Banner Health commits to creating trauma centers at all Valley hospitals by 2013
Banner Health facilities in the Valley will have trauma centers by 2013. Banner Health has committed to creating trauma centers of varying levels at every one of its Valley hospitals by 2013. This decision is voluntary but it will help ensure that trauma patients are better able to get the right care, at the right time, at the right place. The process will kick off this summer when Banner begins formally submitting applications to the state health department.
The Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS), Bureau of Emergency Medical Services and Trauma System recently established criteria and standards for designating trauma centers as Level I, II, III or IV, based on a hospital's resources and capabilities.
Designation as a Level I Trauma Center requires the most resources and capabilities, providing total care for every aspect of injury, while designation as a Level IV means the facility is capable of handling the least serious traumatic injuries and has procedures in place to quickly transfer patients requiring a higher level of care to a higher level facility.
As the leading provider of emergency services in the Valley, Banner Health's decision to create an integrated trauma network will help ensure that emergency responders are better able to get trauma patients to the hospital best equipped and staffed to care for those patients, ensuring faster and safer delivery of care to this patient population.
Decisions are still being finalized at some of Banner's Valley hospitals as to what Trauma Center level designation they will initially seek, but Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center will remain Banner Health's only Level I hospital. In fact, Banner Good Samaritan was recently re-verified by the American College of Surgeons (ACS) as an ACS Level I Trauma Center.

Antz is a computer-animated film created by DreamWorks in 1998, the first feature film by DreamWorks Animation and the third feature-length CGI movie ever released (the Brazilian Cassiop�ia was the second feature-length CGI movie ever released while the American Toy Story was the first). Most of the time, if someone mentions it, they're either comparing it or confusing it with Pixar's A Bug's Life, which is also a computer-animated film about ants released in 1998. However, Antz is far Darker and Edgier than A Bug's Life, as it was geared more towards adults and teenagers—who all brought their children and younger siblings to see it.The protagonist is a worker ant named Z, voiced by Woody Allen. He is somewhat neurotic and maladjusted to life in an ant colony, where each individual is treated as an insignificant part of a greater society. One day, he hears a drunk veteran soldier ant rant about some place called Insectopia, where food is plentiful, there are no rules, and everyone lives in peace. Z and his soldier friend Weaver (voiced by Sylvester Stallone) snicker at the old ant behind his back and think the idea of an "Insectopia" is hilarious.Meanwhile, the lovely Princess Bala (voiced by Sharon Stone) is living in the palace, but finds it dull and does not happily anticipate her upcoming marriage to General Mandible (voiced by Gene Hackman), or the idea of giving birth every ten seconds as Queen. She drags two serving girls down to the workers bars, where she dances with Z, who falls for her instantly. Z soon realizes however that he'll never see her again, so he convinces his friend Weaver to switch places with him for a day, just to see Princess Bala at a royal inspection, while Weaver gets to interact with some of the worker girls.All does not go according to plan however, as it turns out the royal inspection was just before being sent into an unexpected war with a nearby termite mound. Z is the only survivor through pure luck.Meanwhile, Weaver, who has fallen for the career girl (and Z's work friend) Azteca (voiced by Jennifer Lopez), feels terrible about switching places, even though he too had no idea the army was about to go to war. However when he learns Z is the surviving ant and is now a war hero, he is ecstatic.When Z meets the Queen (voiced by Anne Bancroft) and Bala again, she recognises him as the worker from the bar. Mandible is furious that a worker danced with his fiance, and the nervous Z hides behind Bala, but it is assumed that he is taking her hostage. She beats him off quite easily, but in doing so they fall down a garbage chute.Z is forced by a series of his own mistakes to flee the colony with a troop of soldier ants in pursuit. Since he cannot go back, he decides to go out looking for Insectopia. Bala doesn't know how to get back home on her own and has little choice but to go with him.

I've brewed cider a few times using CWE Very Strong White Cider, which I have enjoyed greatly. Today however I couldn't find it, and bought Youngs Brew Buddy Cider.
With the CWE I think it took 24 days from initiating the brewing until bottling. The Brew Buddy stuff says it is ready for bottling in 7 days (with a further 3 days to settle in the bottle). Is this correct? Has anyone used the Brew Buddy stuff before, and can confirms this works? It just doesnt seem like a very long time.
Thanks for your help,
I haven't made cider, let alone used that kit, but I would venture to guess that seven days is on the short side of the time you want to let that ferment. It will probably be close to done by then, but if you let it sit a little longer more yeast will fall out of suspension.
Anyone else please chime in because I am far from the expert.

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'coffee' tag.
Do not attempt this at home. This is the work of a mad genius. Do you have absolutely nothing to do for the next month and want to devote every minute of your days to concocting ONE DRINK TO RULE THEM ALL??!?
The previous sentences are ones I've brainstormed over the past few weeks, trying to figure out how the hell I'm gonna blog about Tony Galdes' entry in last month's Montreal Bar vs Chef. I'm still not sure how to explain to you what I'm about to explain to you.
Tony was bartending at LAB over the summer. Stopped to go back to school. He is 21 years old. I REPEAT: He is 21 years old. He was born in 1990. I will give you all a moment to collectively sigh, go inspect your gray hairs in the bathroom mirror, and wonder if you've ever accomplished anything as massive and brilliant as Tony's Green Rhum Thumb.
We made
coffee espresso-infused* vodka this week. It was totes easy! We just took a cup of fresh, dark-roast beans and gently cracked them open by applying pressure with the bottom of a measuring cup. (See photo.) Then we dumped 'em into a fifth of vodka (something middle-shelf; I think we used Stoli or Ketel) and stored it in a cool, dry place for a few days. Voila!
We've suffered through fiasco infusions before. (Would you like to taste the most terrible homemade peach-flavored vodka ever? No, you would not.) This one's practically foolproof because, unlike a delicate peach, the robustness of the beans lets you know by smell whether or not your infusion's balanced, needs more time, etc. We knew we had something good after about a week, when the espresso aroma actually eclipsed the alcohol-y smell of the vodka. Next, of course, came the question of what cocktail to invent with it…

Man's effect on stratospheric ozone
Man's effect on stratospheric ozone Since McDonald, at the beginning of this decade, first proposed that water vapor from SST exhaust would lead to increases in skin cancer, about a dozen man-induced mechanisms have been suggested as threatening to modify our stratospheric ozone uv-shield. Possible thinning of the ozone layer has been attributed to one or more of the catalytic ozone destroyers, water vapor (HO/sub x/), oxides of nitrogen (NO/sub x/), chlorine (ClX); or bromine (BrX). The original catalyst, HO/sub x/, rather quickly lost its role to NO/sub x/. In an almost unique evolution, computed sensitivity of stratospheric ozone to NO/sub x/ progressively declined until a reversal of effect occurred. Models now compute a thickening of the ozone layer for any but high level or very massive injections of NO/sub x/. Meanwhile, computed sensitivity to ClX has fluctuated widely and in 1978 models increased to the point where comparisons with observations were becoming an embarrassment. The potential role of BrX has also increased but awaits a credible source of stratospheric bromine to bring it center stage. More recently the atmospheric build-up of carbon dioxide, by cooling the stratosphere and increasing the chemical equilibrium level of ozone, has also been recognized as a potential modifier of more »
