I am trying to understand this:coopers
250g dextrose/ 1 bag/ 60 drops.
250/ 60 = 4.17g dextrose/ 1 drop
5 gallons x 128 oz / 12 oz = 53 beers
53 beers x 4.17g dextrose = 221g dextrose total
221g = 7.8 oz= to 7.8 oz dextrose to add to the 5 gallon bottling bucket.tastybrew.com
Light ale (average: 2.45 co2 volumes)
5 gallons
65 F4.1 oz dextrose to add to the 5 gallon bottling bucket.
What gives?
I don't know.. but they work just fine.. 1 drop per 12 oz bottle , 2 for a 22 oz or 750ml size. I have perfect carbonation in my bottles using them. I am going to sugar in a bottling bucket now due to expense of them.
This is really interesting and sounds about right. Two of my friends use Coopers carb drops, one per 12oz bottle, and I've always batched primed with corn sugar (or force carbed).
Their beers, within a similar timeframe, wind up with massive carb, a thick foamy head and it seems to happen fast.
My beers come out moderately carbed with very thin head. They're delicious of course, but carb-wise very different. I batch prime using Beersmith calculations, typically 5oz or so of corn sugar per 5.5-6g or so.
It is a glucose/sucrose blend but that shouldn't matter....things that make you go "hmmm"
I've never used them myself, so grains of salt all around, but I've heard more than a few complaints about the carb drops overcarbing the beer if you let them condition long enough, as well as producing a lot of sediment. This could be mitigated by the fact that most of the people using carb tabs are new brewers, so once they get to a decent carb level (which new brewers want to be fast, hence lots of sugar), all the beers go into the fridge and get drank nice and green. Just a theory, though.
I know another brand of drops (don't know the name) has some maltodextrin in them for body/head so maybe the Coopers do too? Not sure.
I can't be arsed to keep up this list of what's in the fermenters, but hey, check out the cool brewery I own!
twitter.com/2kidsbrewing .. facebook.com/2kidsbrewing .. 2kidsbrewing.com
Malto is not for bottle priming but will get some body, Im not shure if its 100% unfermentable but it may be close.If your going to use malto just use it in the boil. And use the dextrose(corn sugar) to bottle prime. Then again there are some unfermentables in dme for priming.
I only used the drops cuz they came with the kit.. but, my brew was definitely NOT overcarbed. Compared to the amber ale I carbed using priming sugar in a bottling bucket.. the Coopers carb drops provided a little more carbonation.. but, certainly not much more than the priming sugar using the formulas I've seen here.
I've always been curious about them, but have never used them yet.
Never really saw an advantage to drops. Seems like a lot of room for error.
i.e. you introduce error with every bottle, having to manually measure out the drops or tabs and also trust that the drops or tabs are properly formulated to what the package says.
With dextrose, I can take my scale and make sure what needs to go in is what goes in. And, any error from me or my scale gets spread out over 50 or so bottles which is going to end up being WAY less than adding an extra drop to an individual bottle.
Plus it's cheap and easy to boil a pot of corn sugar by comparison!

For gamers, there's usually nothing better than seeing a game mistakenly place on the store shelf ahead of its scheduled release date. But if you find yourself in that position with a Kinect-enabled game, all you'll wind up with is a lot of aggravation.
Popping in a Kinect game will prompt users to download an Xbox Live update which will enable the system to work with Kinect. The problem is that the update isn't available yet, and will presumably only hit the servers when Kinect launches on November 4.
Kotaku has cited an experience from one of its readers, who happened to get an early copy of Kinectimals. When the curious gamer popped in the game disc, it immediately triggered a download update for that specific game, and then installed an update to the Xbox 360 system. An incomplete version of the update, apparently.
"Unfortunately, the update isn't the newest version, and every time you try to sign into Live it will try to update to a version that does not exist on the server," wrote the annoyed gamer. "Since you can't connect to Live without the newest version, the system will be locked out until the update goes on the servers."
There's no way to "downgrade" to the previous dashboard, so any gamer who does the same thing will be unable to sign into Xbox Live at all until the new update becomes available for all users.
Who knew that a game as cute-looking at Kinectimals could cause such a headache?

Considdering this: http://fa-news.com/?p=39, one would argue banks should afford all this. The only way to a sustaiable welfare and growth is to redistribute wealth from high finance to where it is needed.
"Although they claim to accept the objective of raising safety buffers, banks argue that any big changes will impede economic growth."
Somewhat off-topic but it's pretty striking to me that banks believe that "impeding growth" is in itself a sufficient reason not to do something. Growth for the sake of growth leads to disaster. It's like the will-to-power. I'd happily trade growth for stability. Obviously I live in a wealthy country and it's easy for me to say that. Someone in China may feel differently. In any case, it's just another example of how the metrics for success of finance ("Wall Street") are at odds with the metrics for success of the average person ("Main Street"). Other obvious examples are unemployment and wage inflation. As long as there is such gross misalignment the public should not trust financial institutions. Of course, that's assuming your average person realizes that there is a misalignment, which, of course, he or she doesn't.
I wonder when the Euro zone + the BRIC countries will set up their own rating agencies and financial markets in order to avoid being taxed and ruined by the anglo-saxon casinos?
Bampbs is right. Instead of trying to cope with losses when bubbles burst, design simple effective regulatory rules to arrest excessive leverage when asset prices depart from cycle mean levels in booming asset markets - to which they are bound to return causing losses. Such a rule would limit loans to a maximum percentage of cycle average value of the assets put up as collateral to secure the loans, instead of MTM inflated values supporting equally excessive loans.
No need to raise capital and liquidity requirements, and "wean themselves off short-term funding, restricting credit supply and raising interest rates while the world economy struggles. The whole idea of banking is maturity intermediation - between savers who prefer liquidity, though seldom used, and investors who need to ensure long-term finance. Lenders of last resort are there to supply liquidity when panic strikes. let them keep their job.
For a short memo detailing such a regulatory countercyclical rule that kicks-in automatically, when asset prices diverge upwards, contact Amos Rubin - email@example.com.
The American Glass/Steagall enacted after the depression's lessons is still the best solution. Separating and guaranteeing "normal" banking without securitization and 10% tier1 minimums from investment banking that can be as "free market"-derivatives,trading,securitizing as they want- without the moral hazard of government backup.
Glass/Steagall worked for decades and it was only the Europeans refusal to do the same that led America to repeal G/S and the resulting debacle we are going thru.
It would be far better if the rest of the world was forced into this standard.
From bankers we should expect only those reforms that protect us from their excesses. But heaven forbid, it the excesses that need to be expunged from the system. Those excesses include the charges that banks apply to all kinds of transactions; eg. the fees made on derivative trades that compels investment bankers to do things that cut away at the very keel of global economic stability. Widespread audit powers are required by an international organization so that countries and governments know annually what our financial system actually costs every year. Electronic trading is an area particularly prone to profiteering by the alternative trading houses whose activities are not scrutinized. Let's stop the excesses, not just "capitalize" to protect a system that wants no impediments to its insatiable lust for profits.
The problem is always the same. In good times, expectations are too rosy. Borrowers and lenders go overboard, but eventually reality reasserts itself. Excessive leverage is what makes a downturn into a disaster. The key is preventing it. It is much more sensible to limit it directly, as can be done now with brokerage accounts, than to risk the collateral damage of interest rate increases. Counter-cyclical intervention is needed when everyone is fat, and thinking only of getting fatter, regardless of risk.

I hope you are right Ben, last week was average for me, i'm wondering what are the trends for 2013…

Steve Wheatcroft hates going to Monday qualifiers. He was reminded Friday why they can be worth it.
The Associated Press
Steve Wheatcroft hates going to Monday qualifiers. He was reminded Friday why they can be worth it.
Wheatcroft, who narrowly qualified for the Houston Open at the start of the week, ran off three straight birdies early in his round and kept bogeys off his card for a second straight 5-under 67. That gave him a one-shot lead over D.A. Points and Jason Kokrak going into the weekend at Redstone Golf Club.
Rory McIlroy also will be around for two more days, but just barely.
In only his 10th full round of the year, McIlroy walked onto the seventh green - his 16th hole of the day - and saw that he was tied for 77th. He two-putted from 85 feet on the fringe for birdie on his next hole, and then safely found the green at the par-3 ninth for a 70. By the end of the day, McIlroy made the cut on the number.
His big surprise came later. McIlroy, feeling as though he needs more rounds to get ready for the Masters, decided to enter the Texas Open next week.
Phil Mickelson also made the cut on the number after a bogey on the last hole for a 71. Mickelson, who has played the Masters with two drivers in the bag, decided to play Redstone on Friday with two 3-woods in the bag, though one of them is so strong it acts like a driver.
Wheatcroft was at 10-under 134.
Kokrak had a 69, and Points shot 71.
AGADIR, Morocco (AP) - Germany's Marcel Siem shot a 4-under 68 to maintain a three-stroke lead after the second round of the European Tour's Hassan II Trophy.
The French Open champion, needing a victory this weekend to have a chance to get into the top 50 in the world and earn a spot in the Masters, had a 12-under 132 total at Golf du Palais Royal.
Finland's Mikko Ilonen (66) and England's David Horsey, the 2011 winner, were tied for second. Ilonen shot 66, and Horsey had a 67.

Or how do we measure the unknown?
The problem is that as our understanding and control of known risks increases, the remaining risk in any system become increasingly dominated by the 'unknown'. The more we demand in integrity for high integrity systems the more we end up in the situation of having to deal with residual risks that are unknown and unknowable. Well at least the day before the accident they are. What we really need is a way to measure, express and reason about deep uncertainty, and by that I don't mean tools like Pascalian calculus or Bayesian prior belief structures, but a way to measure and judge ontological uncertainty.
Even if we can't measure ontological uncertainty directly perhaps there are indirect measures? Perhaps we can infer something from the platonic shadows it casts on the wall, so to speak. Nassim Taleb would certainly say no, the unknowability of such events is the central thesis of his Ludic Fallacy after all. But I still think it's worthwhile thinking about, because while he might be right, he may also be wrong.
*With apologies to Nassim Taleb.

"Utterly absorbing. . . . Carey's book is afire with passion, both love and loathing."
—Los Angeles Times Book Review
The introduction, discussion questions, and suggestions for further reading that follow are designed to enhance your group's discussion of Theft, the brilliant new novel from two-time Booker Prize winner Peter Carey.
Michael "Butcher" Boones was once a famous as a painter in Australia could be. Now he is just a down-and-out "dogsbody" [p. 11] having suffered a humiliating divorce, a precipitous decline in his artistic reputation, and a stint in jail for attempting to steal back paintings in his ex-wife's–"the plaintiff," as he prefers to call her–possession. To make matters more complicated, Michael is saddled with his "slow" brother Hugh, a 6' 3", 220-lb mixture of unpredictable violence, poetic fancy, and childlike dependence. As the novel begins, Michael is serving as an unpaid caretaker in the borrowed cabin of his uptight art collector, Jean-Paul, outside a swampy Australian town. As Hugh says, in one of his characteristically deflating commentaries on Michael's narcissism: "One minute you are a NATIONAL TREASURE with a house in Ryde and then you are a has-been buying Dulux with your brother's DISABILITY PENSION. You are a CONVICTED CRIMINAL a servant living on a Tick and Thistle farm."
Told through the alternating perspectives and vividly distinctive voices of Michael and Hugh, Theft plunges readers into the 1980s art world, with all its deceit, fraud, forgery, ambition, greed, and all-purpose sliminess. When the beautiful Marlene Leibovitz, daughter-in-law of the late Jacques Leibovitz, a great modernist painter, stumbles into Michael's life, they fall in love and she vows to revive his moribund career. Marlene is in this backwater town ostensibly to authenticate a Leibovitz painting–Monsieur et Madame Tourenbois–owned, unbeknownst to Michael, by his farmer neighbor Dozy Boylan. Marlene has assumed the droit moral, and has the sole legal right to verify the real Leibovitzes from the fakes, of which there are more than a few in circulation. But when Dozy's painting is mysteriously stolen, Michael comes under suspicion, as does Marlene. As they travel from Australia to Tokyo and New York, love and the raw ambition to storm the gates of the art world draws Michael deeper and deeper into what looks increasingly like Marlene's criminal machinations. Is she using Michael for her own ends or does she love him and admire his art as much as he thinks she does? That uncertainty sustains the narrative tension of Theft right up to its final pages.
As vivid a portrait of the artistic temperament as has been produced in many years, Theft bristles with invention, its linguistic surface alive with the textures of two of the most distinctive voices in all of literature.
1. Why does Peter Carey use two narrators in Theft? How do Michael and his brother Hugh regard each other? Is one a more trustworthy narrator than the other? What effects does Carey achieve though this bifurcated perspective?
2. How do the two epigraphs that precede Theft illuminate the story? In what ways does Michael wish to be "a king" and to do just as he pleases "in all circumstances"? Is Hugh right in declaring that "My brother had been a King but now he was a Pig, eviscerated" [p. 265]?
3. The artist Milton Hesse tells Marlene that "the only secret in art is that there is no secret. Nor should she imagine that there is a hidden strategy. Forget about it. Real artists don't have strategy" [p.138]. What conventional views of the artist does this assertion contradict? Might this way of thinking about art apply to novels as well? Is Theft itself free of a "hidden strategy"?
4. Hugh says of his brother: "The artist is always for himself alone, allegedly a MONK, a PRIEST or KING, in spite of which assertion he was always seeking a woman who would let him lie with his BUG IRISH face between her breasts" [p. 89]. Is this a fair assessment of Michael? To what degree does he fit the type of the narcissistic, needy, and self-inflated artist?
5. What does Theft suggest about the ambitions and motives of artists, dealers, collectors, critics, and curators? Does Theft present a cynical or merely realistic view of the art world?
6. Michael and Hugh have very distinctive narrative voices. What are the most striking qualities of those voices? How are they like and unlike each other? What pleasures do they offer that cannot be found in novels where the narrator is more distant and reserved?
7. In what ways does Marlene manipulate Michael in order to pull off her various crimes? Why does he allow himself to be manipulated?
8. Both Michael and Hugh address the reader directly, for example when Michael says "I will not bore you with the surgical operation needed to remove those threads" [p. 115]. Who is the presumed reader of this book? In what ways are Michael and Hugh trying to persuade the reader, and of what?
9. In what ways does Carey explore the themes of deception, dishonesty, fakery, and forgery in Theft?
10. How does Michel's background, coming from a family of butchers from Bacchus Marsh, affect his relationship to his own painting and to the pretensions of the art world? How does his way of working, his attitude toward painting, his passion for paint and canvas, the materials of art, defy the conventional image of the artist?
11. Theft is subtitled "A Love Story." What does the novel suggest about love–romantic love, self-love, brotherly love?
12. The novel ends with Michael's questions: "Is she taunting me or missing me? How will I ever know? How do you know how much to pay if you don't know what it's worth?" [p. 269]. How should Michael's final question be read? What is he referring to? What is Marlene's likely motive for continuing to arrange shows for Michael's work?
13. In an interview, Carey says that "to produce tensions which push the language into somewhere new, you're stretching all the time for the thing that's true and broken and strange. Like de Kooning and Rothko." [QWeekend (Australia), April 1, 2006]. In what ways does Carey push the language in Theft to somewhere new? How is Theft similar to what Rothko and de Kooning attempted in their art?
Claire Messud, The Emperor's Children; David Mitchell, Black Swan Green; Irène Némirovsky, Suite Française; Philip Roth, Everyman; Julia Glass, The Whole World Over.
Peter Carey is the author of nine novels, including the Booker Prize—winning Oscar and Lucinda and True History of the Kelly Gang. Born in Australia in 1943, he now lives in New York City.

The price is absurdly high, and I was drawn in by the beautiful packaging, but this has become my HG primer. Due to the price I tend to only wear this when I've got something important and want to look my best, but i'd wear it day in and day out if it didn't destroy my bank account. Despite the price, it does what it's supposed to do. Although I don't have big pores, it does go on like a dream with a fabulous consistency, holds my liquid foundation (LOREAL true match) in place and makes me looks airbrushed. I recommend this product for those who have extra money, if not then the Body Shop does a primer dupe called Instablur, which isn't as good but follows the same principles for about $20 (Australian rates). I do really really love this primer, I will buy it again and as far as it goes, it really does last!

Well I guess as a primer it did make my foundation to be applied smoother and stay longer since it has silicone in it. I was actually using this primer everyday for a while, until I finally started searching for a new primer and discovered this primer had been giving me breakouts. I think it is just very pore-clogging and I'm very glad I only purchased a trial size.

difficult to squeeze out when you're running low as it comes out in a line and when you think it'd dispensed it sucks back into the hole. it clogs pores and is full of silicones. it's sticky and really isn't the best primer out there. waste of money.

I bought this product about a year ago, as part of a palette and as a full size version. I've been using it every day because I have very large pores on my cheeks which are always maximised when I wear my favourite Mac blush, as it has a metallic sheen, and so I bought this in hopes it'd do what it says on the tin. For me, it doesn't I'm afraid and after constant usage, I decided to shop around for a new pore refining primer. After spending a lot of money, funnily enough, the cheapest product I found (Loreal Blur) worked far better than this one did and is a lot cheaper too. However, it doesn't smell and has a nice consistency and never once caused a break out. It just didn't do what I needed it to, I'm afraid!

I bought this primer because of how much it is raved about. I have large pores and acne prone skin. This primer did nothing for my large pores. When I put the primer on my face, it felt oily/greasy and made my foundation/concealer slide even though I waited for it to set on my skin. It made my makeup look very blotchy and it flaked my skin and soaked up my foundation/concealer so I had to layer on more product. The only pro is that it did kept me somewhat matte throughout the day. Overall, waste of money.

One thing I've definitely figured out with this product is that it works so much better with liquid foundation than powder! I was getting so frustrated when I used it with my powder foundation products, because it just never worked! I felt like the little pad you wipe the powder on with was also wiping off the porefessional stuff. I just bought some liquid foundation from neutrogena and used it again and I finally got the results I wanted. I only use it on my cheeks and I could definitely tell the difference. Love it! So if any of you ladies are not happy and aren't using liquid foundation, give it a try!

Ok, so I purchased the trial sized version of this and I'm glad I didn't get a full sized one. It does help to minimize the look of my pores,but flakes up / balls up like crazy! This is the first time such a product as done this on me. So yup, not impressed..

I'd heard a lot of positive feedback on Benefit's Porefessional so I decided to buy a trial size to see for myself. I'm still iffy about it, I'm glad I only purchased the trial. Like any primer it does smooth out your skin and minimize the look of your pores, but when combined with foundation and a setting powder this seemed to cause my makeup to flake some days, which is odd because I don't have a dry skin type. I just feel like I could achieve the same, if not better results with a drugstore brand primer. Ex: Maybelline Baby Skin or even one or the ELF primers for a fraction of the price. It may work wonders for some but I don't believe I'll purchase a full size tube (it smells nice though! :))

Absolutely brilliant primer. Glides on like silk and creates an amazing smooth base for foundation. It would even look beautiful worn on it's own;it gives bare skin a satin finish. Makeup lasts for hours shine free. I am very fair skinned and get oily in the T zone. Also packaging is divine!

Utilizing Your Body Parts and Moves to Turn Your Man on
Girls should be masters at attracting the attention of any men in the room through their sexy posture and flirting moves. You need to work your charm on your man to make them fall and go hay-wire for you. At the same time, you also need to be confident that your moves are not turning out to be a waste and that the guy you are looking for is actually noticing your sexual appeal and sexual signals.
So, to begin with, to engulf a man in your arms, you should begin finishing your body language, body tools and body parts to carry an attractive look. The body parts that you need work on are eyes, hands, lips, hips, legs and waist. You can send decipherable sexual signals by your eyes. Eyes are the best way to communicate your emotions and the thoughts running in your mind. Not only this, but eyes also tell the other person that whether you want to enter into intimate moves with him or not. Hence, you should use eye movements and slide them once in a while to work on with flirting moves.
Another important way to attract a man is through lips and lips movements. Keeping red glossy lips will invite your man to come and approach you. Glossy lips are turn on for any man. Focus on your man's lips as well and this will make you too get into a sexy posture.
Apart from this, it is also essential to work out in the front of your guy by maintaining a sexy posture. Stay cool, relaxed and maintain moves that invite your man to come and grab you. Maintaining an ideal and sexy hip posture will help you establish direct link with your partner. If you have a sexy waist, you should try to show that off. Adjust your clothing to your body figure and try to maintain an attractive look. Wear clothes that are tight on breast and waist. This will focus your man's eyes on your key assets.
Hand postures are also important to maintain. Try to make use of your hand in conversations. This will divert your man's attention from your talks to your body parts. Make your chin rest on your hands, express confidence with your hands, use your index fingers, try to rub your fingers on your lips. All these moves pass on a sexual appeal to your partner and also maintain your flirting moves.
Finally, let's talk about your legs. Your placement of legs also plays an important role in making your man interested n you. Pose your legs in a sexy way. Make them appealing and shinning. Slip your legs out of your shoes. Point it in the direction of your man. All these are sex appeals that make your man fall for you and all they would be interested in after such moves are to kiss you and take you for a ride.
Little bit of glamorous look with cosmetics can add final touch to our look and body language. So, once you are ready, go and get your man.
