mutations in the VHL gene should be determined. The potential of specific missense mutations in the VHL gene contributing to tumor initiation and progression should be determined.
Although correlation of VHL mutations to trichloroethylene exposure and renal cell cancer are persuasive, the findings need to be validated in other populations and geographic areas. Because many risk factors for renal cell carcinoma generate mutation spectra similar to that of trichloroethylene, coexposure to trichloroethylene with other risk factors needs to be seriously considered and accounted for in future epidemiologic studies.
Mechanistic studies should include field studies of populations exposed to trichloroethylene to assess the range of metabolic pathways used and relative amounts of metabolites from each pathway as a function of exposure intensity and enzymatic genotypes. This information will greatly help in the interpretation and extrapolation of information from rodents to humans.
Additional studies of nephrotoxicity in workers exposed occupationally to trichloroethylene should be performed. It is important that actual exposures are measured and not estimated using biological markers that are subject to large interindividual differences.
No analytic community studies were included in the committee's assessment of kidney cancer. Given the importance of contamination of water supplies by trichloroethylene, it is important that sufficiently robust studies (with sufficient statistical power and exposure assessments) be conducted in the general population where such exposures might be occurring.
Any follow-up epidemiologic study must have a wide range of exposures, preferably to the range of the Vamvakas and Henschler studies to provide an anchor in that range where effects were seen. There may be opportunities for studies of populations in developing countries in Asia and Eastern Europe, where high exposures to trichloroethylene may not have been controlled. Strong, quantitative exposure assessments will be critical for these studies to be useful for resolving the remaining dose-response issues.

CRANFORD, NJ - The Scotch Plains-Fanwood varsity boys basketball team made a preliminary-round exit from the Union County Tournament on Saturday, and the Raiders did so in familiar fashion: With a loss to Cranford.
Held to just two points in the second quarter, SPF lost, 53-39, despite making a far better offensive showing in the second half.
Leo Ramos dropped three 3-pointers and led Scotch Plains-Fanwood with 11 points and Andrew Voysest finished with seven points in the loss.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

If you like the itinerary below please quote REF CHINA 1859 when enquiring for further details.
Alternatively you may like modify this trip with your own Holiday Wish List
Welcome to China and the start of your holiday! We will be there to meet you at the airport and transfer you through to your hotel. Remainder of today is at your leisure.
This morning, we explore the heart of Beijing including the vast Tiananmen Square where Chairman Mao's tomb and various monuments to the people are located. Dominating the city's heart is the Forbidden City, a centre of power for five centuries and seat of the emperors, we enjoy a guided tour of this old city within a city. Later we take a rickshaw ride through the Hutongs of Beijing, weaving through old back lanes, traditional courtyards and compact houses.
Today, we drive beyond Beijing to Badaling, to walk a section of the famous Great Wall. Built in the Ming Dynasty, a 6m wide pathway makes a formidable defence, following the highest contours of a steep range of hills. Don some comfortable shoes as today you get the chance to walk a section of the famous Great Wall. Zig zagging some 6000km, ducking and weaving through mountain peaks and lush terrain. On our return to Beijing, we explore the Ming Tomb.
This morning we visit the Summer Palace, set on Kunming Lake. Later we visit the Silk Alley markets to hunt for some serious shopping bargains at the gargantuan Silk Alley Markets. On our return to the hotel we view from a distance the 2008 Olympic stadium commonly referred to as the 'birdsnest' and aquatic centre.
Located in the heart of bustling Beijing, the Temple of Heaven is an oasis of peace and a striking example of architectural order and symmetry. Enjoy a guided tour of the temple and park. Afternoon at leisure. This evening we transfer to the train station for our overnight train to Xian.
Arriving into Xi'an early this morning, transfer to your hotel and enjoy some time to freshen up. Later today discover the marvellous Terracotta Warriors archaeological site. Some 7000 warriors stand battle-ready and have done so for the past 2,200 years. A visit to a clay workshop specialising in making replica figurines is also included. The remainder of the evening is at leisure or perhaps you'd like to opt for our Tang Dynasty Dinner and Show (please see Enhance Options page of the quote).
Spend the morning at leisure before a guided excursion to the ancient Buddhist Big Wild Goose Pagoda. Take a casual bicycle ride on top of the nine mile city wall with views over the lively city below. The day concludes with a visit to the Muslim Quarter of the city, giving you a great insight into the religious diversity of China.
Today we will visit famous Bell tower, later on transfer to train station for you sleeper train to Chengdu.
Arrival at Chengdu,met by guide and transfer to hotel. Later on we visit Wuhou Memorial Temple, the Tomb of Wang Jian and Jinli Lu Street.
Today we will travel about 10km north to the Giant panda breeding Reserch Base where you will catch a glimse of some of the 40 Pandas that reside here. Tonight you can have free time to spend some time at the Quingshiqiao Markets.
Driving to Leshan our morning is spent exploring the the UNESCO World Heritage Listed Dafo (Great Buddha), which is carved into the red sandstone face of Lingyun Hill. Driving onward take in the views from Emei Shan (Mt Emei) designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its incredible natural beauty and historical Buddhist sites.
This morning we transfer to the airport for our flight to Shanghai. Upon arrival we are met and transferred to our hotel. The mere mention of 'Shanghai' conjures up mystery, romance and general decadence. Pre–1949 cosmopolitan Shanghai was a magnet for seekers of wealth, idle colonialists, explorers and the dispossessed. A legacy of these heady times is Shanghai's Bund where on and around this waterfront promenade are a series of grandiose pre-1949 buildings. Just across the Huangpu River is the new Shanghai, a high-tech development of gravity defying skyscrapers. This afternoon we explore the famous Bund and Nanjing Road.
Today we tour many of the city's top spots including the Yu Gardens, the Oriental Pearl TV Tower, the Jade Buddha Temple and a cruise along the Huangpu River.
This morning take a high speed train journey to ancient Suzhou. A sort of oriental Venice, ancient Suzhou is interwoven by a series of canals and pretty waterways which feed a series of classical gardens laid out here since the Song dynasty a thousand years ago. Suzhou sits very close to the Grand Canal and today enjoy a cruise on the Grand Canal as well as a tour of the Humble Administrator's Garden and a visit to a silk workshop before returning to Shanghai.
This morning we transfer to the airport for our flight to Guilin. Upon arrival we transfer to our hotel. Today we venture out to explore The Reed Flute Cave. Within the cave there are enchanting stalagmites, stone pillars, stone curtains and stone flowers. Continue on to Elephant Trunk Hill. Located at the confluence of the Taohua (Peach Blossom) River and the Li River, this hill is too famous to be missed.
This morning your Li River cruise departs from downtown Guilin for a full day's excursion. The 90km Li River cruise is the highlight of any trip to northeastern Guangxi province. Gorgeous karst peaks give you surprises at each bend of the limpid river under the blue sky. Bear witness to rural China as peasants reap rice paddies and school kids and fisherman float by on bamboo rafts. After passing many world-renowned sights such as Elephant Trunk Hill and Pagoda, arrive in to Yangshuo and visit Yangshuo West Street.
This morning offers free time to explore Yangshuo before we transfer back to Guilin. This afternoon at leisure. Tonight we board our overnight train to Guangzhou.
Upon arrival we transfer to our train for our journey to Hong Kong. Upon arrival we are met and transferred to our hotel. Remainder of today at leisure.
Today you you will enjoy a half day tour of Hong Kong covering the major highlights of this fascinating city. The tour will take in Repulse Bay, Victoria Peak and Aberdeen. The tour will end after lunch, at about 2:30 pm. Hong Kong is known for its shopping and there will be some free time for you to go out bargain hunting this afternoon.
Aftert breakfast we enjoy a half day tour of Macau - a city with two faces with a uniquely Mediterranean style on the China coast. Colonial fortresses, churches and distinctly Portuguese food contrasts with the glitz and glam of Vegas-style mega hotels and casinos. In 2005 UNESCO named 30 buildings and squares collectively as the Historic Centre of Macau World Heritage Site, providing a unique testimony to the fusion of East and West.
Today we bid you farewell with a transfer to Hong Kong airport to meet your onward flight.

Our cover story looks at the career and advocacy of actor/writer/director/producer Seth Rogen (page 18), who along with his wife has been a powerful voice for a greater commitment to Alzheimer's disease research. On the subject of research, we have news from the Fisher Center laboratory, as explained by Dr. Jean-Pierre Roussarie, a postdoctoral researcher in the lab of Dr. Paul Greengard (page 12).
What is the connection between oral health and Alzheimer's? We talk with two doctors about what we know now and what the future may hold as we further explore that possible connection (page 16). We also explore the impact Alzheimer's is having on women, both as patients and caregivers (page 27), and we take a look at whether Alzheimer's deaths have been underreported—and why (page 10).
What is "shadowing," and how can you handle it effectively? Find out in our story on page 8. Learn more about how hobbies can help relieve the stress of caregiving (page 14).

Falling Into Place
Jack Frost is coming but he's not here yet. There's still time for some work—inside and out—to get ready for fall football viewing, holiday hosting, and effortless spring gardens and lawns.
Kids are back in school and the freewheeling days of beaches, golf and festivals are numbered. The sun is setting a little earlier, the air is a bit chillier, and we're getting the first hints that winter might be on its way. Let's get ready for it.
For the sports fans among us, fall means one thing: football. For others the change of seasons signals the return of network favorites (Glee anyone?). But a comfortable family room requires more than just a cutting-edge flat screen. "Believe it or not," jokes Woodworks manager Kelly Hofmeister, "there are times in the day when people turn the TV off."
Hofmeister says Woodworks carries a number of consoles and wall units that optimize television viewing while the TV is on and then minimize its presence when the screen is off. "We have some very nice wall systems that will integrate not only component storage, TV space and speaker space, but they'll also have glass shelves and doors with some back lighting," she says. "You can combine storage and display space, and it's a nice way to take the focus away from the TV when you're not watching."
The right seating is also critical. Hofmeister says sectionals are popular because they are so versatile. You can fit a crowd, and everyone can reach the snacks or put their feet up on a central upholstered ottoman. Some still opt for recliners, and newer versions have button controls and smooth transitions instead of the old-fashioned levers that launch footrests up or down.
Hofmeister recognizes that most people want to nestle into their furniture when they watch TV, and she encourages customers to seek out pieces that will allow them to do that. She says some shoppers shy away from cushy, comfortable seating because they think firmer foam is automatically better quality and longer lasting, but that's not true. "I don't think you should be afraid of purchasing something that has a softer feel," she says. "With the right quality, the softer sit is going to last as long as the firmer sit."
Cool weather causes other homeowners to reassess their kitchens. Jeff Hensen, president of Hensen Fine Cabinetry, says many clients start or rekindle remodeling projects once they come back to their kitchens after a summer of grilling. "Fall pushes people into the kitchen," he says. "When they spend more time there, they start pondering that remodel again."
Hensen says many homeowners don't want the worry of remodeling during the summer, but they don't want the house ripped apart during the holidays or torn open during the cold and snow. So fall is a great time to get to work. He cautions clients to be ready to move quickly if they want things done by the holidays. While his lead time is about eight weeks once decisions are made, there are other factors that can add time to projects.
For example, solid-surface countertops won't be fabricated until the cabinets are installed, so there will be a two- or three-week lull in the action if you're getting quartz or granite. And if your mind isn't already made up on the design, the cabinet wood species or the countertop material, you probably aren't going to ring in the new year in a new space. "There are a lot of decisions to be made," Hensen says, "but with a little help it all comes together!"
Other projects, like converting former kids' rooms to home offices, aren't driven as much by calendar constraints. Murphy beds are a popular option, Hensen says, for homeowners who want to welcome grown children home for visits but who recognize that their college-educated kids probably don't need shelves enshrined with ribbons, trophies and other high-school memorabilia.
Fall isn't all about the indoors for everyone. Avid gardeners know it's a great time to split, move or plant some perennials. "Fall is a great time to plant," says Linda Barcz, a horticulturalist at The Bruce Company. "You don't have to water them as much, and then they start out in the spring and already have their roots established. They can take off and go."
Barcz also notes that fall plants sales offer end-of-season bargains.
She also recommends seeding lawns.In late September or early October, seeds germinate quickly because of the warmth during the day. Barcz advises against seeding in late October because there won't be enough warmth for seeds to fully germinate. But homeowners can seed again in November. In dormant seeding, grass doesn't germinate until spring when the snow melts, "but then it pops right up," Barcz says.
Some outdoor projects create spaces that can be used right away. Permanent outdoor fireplaces or moveable fire pits are popular, Barcz says, and can extend the life of outdoor spaces. "There's something very appealing about that crackling fire," she says. "When you have a party outside, people are scattered all over out doors. When you have a fire, people naturally gather."

HELP!! I had a stalker and because of HIPAA I lost my RN - page 2
I have been a RN for 13 years. I went back to school to become a FNP. While doing my clinicals, a male patient noted my name and started calling me at my full time job. I have never been hit on by a male patient before so I was... Read More
- 0May 8, '12 by Esme12, BSN, RN Senior ModeratorQuote from Rob72I was also wondering if the OP thought she couldn't go to the police and give the patients name without violating HIPAA and felt helpless with this persons advances.My suspicion would be that the BON was viewing contact outside of the workplace as, "use of intimate/confidential knowledge in inappropriate fashion", which would technically be a HIPAA violation. I.e., one could not be charged for a violation of the Act itself, but the Act itself is used to define appropriate/inappropriate behavior.
I'm not a lawyer, but I've been around the rodeo a few times, as it were. Legally, my take on this would have been the acknowledgement of the fact that women are more commonly victims of DV and stalking because of their reticence to have "hard" social boundaries, in conjunction with the established environment and social structure of care, resulting not only in the recognized potential for abuse of patients by care-givers, but of the care-givers.
- 4May 8, '12 by tyvinEsme you were right before as the other person that mentioned calling and filing pollice reports as well as a TRO...the police should have been involved right from the very start. HIPAA "rights" are not violated when a health care professional is reporting a crime. I know it's too late for the OP but let others take a very serious lesson here.
- 3May 12, '12 by nurse2033I think giving up your career is a poor choice. This is worth fighting for as an advocate for others as well as yourself. As others have mentioned there are proper procedures to follow when you are stalked and getting a restraining order is one. I think the idea to sue the stalker in civil court is a good one. You have suffered significant harm as the result of his actions through no fault of your own. Good luck.
- 1Jun 6, '12 by ittybittynurseDON'T GIVE UP. FIGHT!!!!
- 1Jun 6, '12 by GitanoRN Guidegiving up is not an option in this case...just because you're a nurse it doesn't mean that you have to take such abuse. in addition, this is not reason enough to give up your nursing career, if you do you'll keep looking over your shoulder for the rest of your life. needless to say, i would still check with the authorities in command regarding this issue and proceed with taking this claim to court, keep in mind if the perpetrator gets away with it; they will do it again to someone else... just saying
- 1Jun 6, '12 by caliotter3Just to consider: I was the victim of a stalker, dealing with my job. I was told in no uncertain terms by law enforcement and attorneys that I could not get a restraining order or do anything to protect myself until the stalker did bodily harm to me. I was treated as if I were the problem, not my stalker. The law is on his side. Anything you do to protect yourself or to fight this will be held against you. This situation contributed to me losing my job, my ability to get a job, and I had to relocate. Then I continued having problems getting work because the former employer saw to it that I was blacklisted. They did nothing whatsoever to help me when I was their employee, or after they got rid of me. Just something to consider should you be wondering if you should carry on with this. Best wishes.
- 2Jun 6, '12 by ICU_JOSIEI'm sorry this has happened to you but how did he end up getting your personal phone number? It would have been easier to change your phone number right away and communication should have stopped right there and then.
- 2Jun 7, '12 by Reese0608that's what I wonder too, how did he get your personal phone number? I would of reported it immediately & had his number blocked.
- 0Jul 19, '12 by DizzyLizzyNurseI've been stalked once. It was an ex bf. He backed down when I informed him that if he ever contacted me again I would be calling the police and that I had saved his crazy texts, emails, and voicemails and would use that as evidence against him. He called me a few choice names and I haven't heard from him since. With some people you cannot be soft with them. You have to be direct. I doubt that will help you now, but for anyone in the future it might. I would have said the same to the guy (after saving any evidence), changed my number, and gone to the police.
I hope you can sue or something (and I don't usually say that!). This is just wrong.
- 1Sep 18, '12 by JoryThis had nothing to do with a name badge. We are licensed professionals and I know of no other licensed professionals that seek to hide their name like nurses do (with the exception of psychiatric ward and prisons).
However, I agree with IIg, that you did need to act immediately, for your own safety and protection.
I would have ignored any communication that came across, but after the first few I would have reported it both to the school and the police. Because you can safely assume that someone went to great lengths to get your cell number to start with.
That would have started you on the road to protection.
However, there is also nothing wrong if the only communication you sent was to tell him to stop...I don't understand why your cell phone text records could not have been ordered by your attorney to prove that asking someone to stop is not acting in "willful engagement"...that is like stating a victim of rape asking her rapist to stop was engaged in a mutual conversation.
HIPAA also has exceptions...when a crime is being committed. Depending on your state laws for stalking, that is not a HIPAA violation. If you feel that there is a threat to your safety, reporting it is not a HIPAA violation and HAD YOU REPORTED IT to at minimum, your school, they would have counseled you on on what to do.
I would also get another attorney....sounds like the one you have didn't do such a good job.
Folks, this is a good reason to have nursing insurance.

funny story...
- 1Oct 4, '12 by smurfynurseyI thought since most of us deal with death on such a regular basis, I would share a funny story about my great aunt...
My great aunt is a twin, and at 92 she has a significant number of health problems, but is doing well right now. My mom took her to the funeral home to get some things straightened out (what she wants to wear, ect). The man at the funeral parlor made a comment about wheather she wanted refreshments or something after the service....
She said (in all seriousness) "I could make brownies and freeze them!" (she is famous for brownies.
Now, every so often she makes brownies and drops them off. They see what we bring and automatically know who it is.
gotta love LOLs

9 Stupid Things You're Doing With Your Credit Card
You've got a low-interest rate credit card, pay at least your minimum due, and you've never left your credit card sitting in an unlocked car. So, you're covered, right? Wrong. Even the smartest among us are guilty of some of these common credit card mistakes. Improve your credit card IQ by avoiding these common mistakes.
1. Ignoring your rewards program
With so many credit cards on the market today, credit card issuers are working hard to get you to choose their card. Many cards offer rewards programs that, well, reward you for the money you're already spending. An industry-standard 1 percent redemption rate will typically be what you earn with your eyes closed. However, some cards can boost quarterly promotions to as high as 5 percent rebates on eligible purchases.
Credit card rewards programs are generally pretty easy to manage, whether you use your credit card only a few times a year or if you pass all your monthly spending through your credit account. Rewards programs can pay off in travel discounts, exclusive perks, statement credits or even some extra holiday shopping money. Just be sure to check if or when your points/miles expire. With just a little attention to your account details, you could be earning some considerable rewards.
2. Sending your card with the server
After you've enjoyed a lovely meal at a nice restaurant, credit card fraud may not be the first thing on your mind. But when you hand over your credit card in that small black book and send it away with the server, you're displaying more trust than you ought to. It's estimated that 70 percent of credit card skimming takes place in restaurants. Skimming is a popular method of stealing credit card information where your card information is scanned or copied (by hand or machine). As soon as that credit card leaves your sight, you're giving dishonest employees ample time to skim your information, run your card to pay the bill and present you with the receipt with a big smile.In Europe, it's common for your restaurant server to run your card with a handheld machine right at your table, which has contributed to lower credit card crime rates. Unfortunately, this hasn't become commonplace in the states. So what's your best bet? Admittedly, this one's tough. Aside from using cash, ask to be present where and when they swipe your card. Yes, it's slightly awkward and the server may not be accustomed to the question, however, credit card theft is so common that no one will begrudge you being careful.
3. Giving your credit card to a friend"You fly, and I'll buy." It's a common enough arrangement, but when you send your credit card off with someone who is not named the name on the card, you could end up causing more conflict than convenience. First off, it's not the smartest decision to let your credit cards out of your possession since it's estimated that 25 percent of identity theft is committed by friends or relatives. Second, if there is a problem with the transaction, your credit card company's protections may not apply since only authorized users on the account should be allowed to make purchases. Last, the merchant could simply refuse to carry out the transaction, leaving you - and your Chinese takeout - in the lurch.
4. Paying lateSurely everyone forgets a due date once in a while, but paying late is not only costly in the short term (late fees can be as high as $35 and you could be hit with a high penalty APR), but it can also be very costly in the long term. Take more than 30 days past the due date to pay, and your card issuer will likely report your account to one or more of the major credit bureaus. Since your payment history makes up 35 percent of your FICO credit score, a mark like that will make your credit score take a significant hit, which translates to less-than-desirable terms for loans such as mortgages, car loans and credit cards. Avoid this scenario by taking advantage of all the technology that surrounds you. Set your smartphone with a recurring alarm, make an event on your computer calendar or consider setting up an automatic payment. Technology is fun, but it's not necessary: a paper statement, a highlighter and a fridge magnet work nicely, too.
5. Giving your card to your kidPerhaps nothing says, "I trust you," like giving a teenager access to thousands of dollars with a credit card, but surely there are better ways to create this bond and foster responsibility in your adolescent. Not only are you responsible for the balance they run up, but your credit score could also take a plunge if the balance is enough to increase your credit utilization percentage.

Ten Best Cuban Sandwiches in Broward and Palm Beach
Trying to find the best Cuban sandwich in South Florida is like trying to find a stretch of pavement uncluttered with out-of-state plates come high season. Near impossible, and almost as frustrating. With so many options to choose from, what it really comes down to is quality.
Nicole Danna
The best Cubans have a special touch -- some are grilled and pressed with a traditional plancha, yielding that golden-brown, crusty finish. Others go overboard on the meat, either an abundance of roasted pork or stacked slabs of salty, thick-cut Serrano ham. Still others get fancy with house-cured pickles or homemade mustard.
Though the culinary landscape of Broward and Palm Beach may be dominated by Cuban concepts, we've singled out the best of the cuisine's eponymous sandwich. From the street counters to the longtime, family-owned establishments, here's our list for the best Cuban sandwiches in South Florida.
10. Havana
Nicole Danna
Anyone traveling on I-95 through West Palm Beach should detour and follow the signs from the highway to Havana. Since 1993, the walk-up outdoor order windows on the corner of Old Dixie Highway and Forest Hill Boulevard in West Palm Beach have been open 24 hours, offering an array of quick, inexpensive, and ready-to-go eats. It's Cuban-style street food for takeout, for just a few dollars. The Cuban sandwich is a winner here, wrapped and ready to go with a side bag of fresh-fried plantain chips.
9. El Bohio
Nicole Danna
Palm Beach County knows good Cuban food. From Jupiter to Boca Raton, dozens of establishments specialize in peddling meat-filled empanadas, hand-pressed Cuban sandwiches, homemade pulpeta (Cuban meatloaf), velvety flan, and a colada. Luckily, the area also boasts a wide range of Cuban concepts, everything from authentic upscale restaurants to small, family-style eateries. But it's the casual walk-up counter spots -- the café Cubanos, open all hours of day and night -- that seem to present the most authentic experience. And that's exactly what you'll find at El Bohio, a longtime Cuban pit stop off Federal Highway in Lantana. In Cuba, "bohío" is the name for the traditional hut or housing originally developed by the island's aboriginal groups. In Lantana, it's the name for owner Blas Serpa's small stand-alone restaurant with a busy, walk-up order counter. Here, the Cuban sandwich is pressed with a plancha, with a perfect proportion of bread, meat, and cheese.

I'm making an apricot wheat.
I'm not really a fan of either wheat beer or apricots, but I had one once that I liked. This is mostly for my sisters-in-law, so a 'candy' beer is fine, as long as it does not taste of plastic or cough medicine.
The thing that will determine extract or puree is the quality of the extract. I'd prefer not to have pounds of sloppy, sticky fruit to deal with. So,
Do fruit flavor extracts always taste of fake fruit and plastic? Is there a specific brand I should purchase that is better than the others? Are some fruit flavor extract flavors (blackberry, raspberry, cherry) more true to life than others, or are they all garbage?
If apricot flavor extract = apricot version of Strawberry Shortcake Doll scented doom, I will suck it up and use puree.
Also, though it's like having a recipe for toast, here's the 'beer' portion:
5 gal (full boil) 60 min
8 oz Carahell (155 F for 30)
2 oz Maltodextrin
6.25 lbs Briess Bavarian Wheat LME (2 added at boil, rest last 10 min)
1 oz Tettnanger
Belgian Wheat Wyeast ACT 3942
Extracts and purees work very differently. An extract, at the least the ones I'm familiar with, are added at bottling, don't add any fermentables, and just flavor the final beer.
With a puree, you put it in a fermentor and rack your beer onto it. The yeast will kick up and get to work, fermenting the sugar in the fruit. When its done, you rack the beer off of the trub left behind.
You could try the extract, but in very small doses, just enough to see how it tastes in a glass of your beer. If you don't like it, go to Plan B with pureed fruit.
Good luck!
To me, the extract added at bottling tastes..... Bad. Hard to describe, it just tastes bad. I much prefer real fruit added to the secondary.
But.. To each his own.
It depends on the fruit extract. In my limited experience raspberry and strawberry are good extracts. Cherry extracts taste like cough syrup.
I've tried using flavored tea bags at flameout. That came out pretty good.
It depends on the quality of the extracts. I good experiment is to pour yourself a glass of cold water and add some of the extract to it. Taste it and see if you like it. If not, run down to your local grocer and pick up some other brands -- do the same. Not all extracts are created equally, and if you are doing kits, that usually means you got the cheapest extract. Some are more 'natural' and 'complex' while other just taste like chemicals.
Other than root beer, I've never found an extract flavoring that I liked. Italian ice syrups, like da Vinci's, are much better and they have a huge range of flavors. Even better, many flavors are available in sugar-free forms so the sweetness doesn't ferment out. I buy them at Cash'n'Carry, which is a restaurant supply store.
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!"
"I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
Thanks all! I'm going to invest in some extracts and puree and go to town experimenting. I will let you know what I discover!
How much fruit extract do you typically add? I am doing a triple berry wheat for my father and am close to bottling. I'm totally unsure of how much of the flavor extract to add. I am using blueberry, raspberry, and boysenberry.
I have an apple ale in it's second week in primary. It came with apple flavoring. I smelled the flavoring. It was like green jolly ranchers. I opted to dump a gallon of cider into it instead of the extract. Think it will be more subtle.

VTech Retro Phone with Connect to Cell Review
November 27, 2013
I was instantly impressed with the design and feel of the Vtech Retro phone, and how perfect for my home office. The design looks like the classic corded 1960s retro telephones. It also has a cute rotary-inspired keypad and dials with the push-button keypad, just like a classic rotary telephone. This phone is also jammed packed with great features such as: Make and receive landline and cellular calls, Store 200 directory entries from up to 2 different cell phones so there is no need to input names and numbers into your cordless phone system. , Face-down charging, Caller ID/Call Waiting that stores 50 calls and more!
I love the connect to BLUETOOTH feature allowing cellular phones to make and receive calls with the ease and comfort of a home phone system. Now I can avoid the mad dash I really do make just to catch the call on my cell before it goes to voicemail.
The cordless handset rests face down on the charger to maintain its classic style. Handset and base speakerphones, along with backlit keypad and display. DECT 6.0 Digital technology,and up to 14 minutes of recording time. So many more awesome features. If your into the retro look or just want something unique this phone is for you.
True Story of a Multi-Tasking Mom
November 25, 2013
I have been so flustered lately. I was in a desperate need of something to make mommy life a wee bit more organized and a heck of a lot easier. Luckily I was introduced to the VTech DS6670-6C.
Every morning, I sit with my cup of coffee and my day planner to organize and plan the day. With the hands free headset I can easily write down appointments, notes, confirmation numbers etc. easily in my planner all the while sipping that glorious cup of coffee or brushing my daughter's hair; giving my Super Mom multi-tasking powers.
Ever have a super important phone call to be on, but your cell phone is stuck on a charger and you can't just stay attached to the outlet it is hooked up to? The VTech DS6670-6C has a great feature that lets me sync my cell phone {and my husband's too} to the VTech system so I can still be on the phone call while my cell phone is charging, and for even more mobility I could use the awesome hands free headset too.
5 Minute Rocky Road Fudge
November 25, 2013
My very, VERY favorite feature of the VTech phone DS6670-6C is the headset that came with it. It has saved me SO many times! I love being able to have long conversations with my sisters while cooking in the kitchen or making 5 Minute Rocky Road Fudge. I can cook, I can check email…heck – I can even clean! (Not that cleaning tops my list of things I want to do…)
Of course the boys love it too! They can talk to Grandma AND keep playing at the same time! Maybe have a quick snack…these little boys are such multi-taskers :)
How do You Juggle it All Each Day?
November 22, 2013
As a mom, I rely on my phone even more than in my pre-motherhood days. I use it to capture photos, stay updated on social media, check email, access my schedule and calendar, make to-do lists and grocery lists… And on and on and on. And as someone who runs a business online, any time I'm out of the house {because I'm a crazy-OCD-workaholic} I'm constantly checking my email on my phone, tweeting, checking in on Foursquare, Instagramming everything I do, etc. Which brings me to the cool new product I want to share, and why it's so cool – it's called the DS6670-6C, and it's a perfect solution to some of my phone-related problems. It's not a smartphone, but it is a smart little cookie. Learn why….
At first, honestly, I was pretty skeptical about this whole VTech Phone thing. I mean, we don't even have a home phone line. And why would I need a cordless phone that connects to my cell, when I can just use my cell? But then, I learned more, and holy helpfulness, Batman, this baby is a lifesaver.
Vtech Retro Cordless Phone
November 17, 2013
While the age of landline, bulky phones with a receiver are long gone, those images still manage to stir up a nostalgic feeling. At least for us anyways! The VTech Retro Cordless Phone gives that you nostalgic feeling but with the latest technology must-haves and sleek styling. It also comes in all sorts of colors. You get it in bold tangerine, pearl white, dark lux, light blue and black, all of which are anything but subtle.
The VTech Retro Phone features include Call waiting, caller ID with 50 memory slots, base and handset speaker phones, digital answering system, rotary keypad, cordless handset, push buttons, backlit display, call screening, message time as well as date stamp, superior battery and an overall styling that hides all such modern benefits in a traditional rotary chassis.
Retro Phone with Connect to Cell
November 17, 2013
This Retro Phone allows you to make and receive landline calls. You can also use your bluetooth enabled device to connect to this Retro Phone with Connect to Cell phone to make and receive calls too! How neat is that!!
VTech building great phones, its the perfect gift!
November 17, 2013
This holiday VTech brings to you their 2 Handset ConnecttoCell™ Answerin System with CallerID/CallWaiting.This great phone system offers more than just a land-line, it also offers its users the ability to make and receive both land line and cellular calls. VTech made sure that all the latest technology is built right inside this phone. Some of the greatest features I also like about the phone is its intercom ability, streamline throughout the house and hands-free capability.
An easier way to multitask
November 15, 2013
Anything that can make life easier for busy mothers is a great thing. The VTech DS6670-6C Connect to Cell phone system allows families to stay connected and moms to multitask. Best yet, you don't even need a landline to do it.
Place your phone wherever it gets the best signal in your home. Pick up one of the five handsets to receive or make calls, or just use the headset. You don't have to miss phone calls, and you can clean, cook, fold laundry, change diapers, sew, etc. at the same time!
VTech DS6670-6C Connect to Cell Phone System & Cordless Headset
November 15, 2013
I'm so excited to share a new technology product that I'm absolutely loving. We received a VTech DS6670-6C Connect to Cell Phone System (with cordless headset) for review and it's awesome!! It makes my sometimes crazy, mutli-tasking mom life just a little bit easier throughout the day — and I love things that make life easier.
Ever accidentally leave your cell phone in the other room and miss calls? Or, leave it on silent and miss calls? Maybe you're like me and the phone sometimes goes missing during the day (thanks to "mommy brain" or little ones who have helped themselves to your phone)…and then you miss calls because you can't find it. Or, do you have a dead zone in your house where your cell phone just never seems to work? The VTech DS6670-6C phone system can help any of that! Seriously, all, this phone system is SO cool! And, you don't even need a landline to take advantage of this phone! You can use this system with any BLUETOOTH–enabled cellular phone!
VTech Phones Multitasking Mama Review
November 15, 2013
Right now I have the home base in our bedroom where our phones are charging, but hopefully our house in Maryland will have a space near the kitchen where I can set up an actual nice-looking charging station, and the base can live there. Because the headset lives on the home base, and the place I most want to have hands-free calls is the kitchen.
Often when the kids are napping or engaged somewhere else, I'm cooking something. Preparing for dinner, making a big batch of no-grain granola, or baking up a treat. And that's a great time to catch up with parents or friends. But since I'm allll over the kitchen and using both hands, I often just put my phone on speakerphone on the counter… which means when I am on the other side of the room, I have to shout. RUDE. I'm going to get a LOT of use out of the headset for that reason.
It'll also help if I need to make a call when I'm doing chores, like this morning when the kids were eating breakfast and I was starting some laundry while making a chiropractor appointment for all of us.

NEW YORK (AP) - The sole surviving Somali pirate from the
hostage-taking of an American ship captain has arrived in New York
to face charges in the attack.
Abduhl Wali-i-Musi (AHB'-dul wahl-ih-MOO'-sih) was surrounded by
about a dozen federal agents as he arrived in lower Manhattan late
Monday. He was manacled with a chain wrapped around his waist, and
his left hand was heavily bandaged from the skirmish on the ship.
He was due to appear in federal court in New York on Tuesday. He
is the first pirate to be tried in the United States in more than
The teenager's arrival came on the same day that his mother
appealed to President Barack Obama for his release. She says her
son was coaxed into piracy by "gangsters with money."

Correcting Gresham's Law (Correct)
In fact, in measuring the quality of ice we find that it is an illusory form of qualitative analysis. Ice has a freezing point: above that point all ice is "good ice." Below that point, we have only water. In the real world there is no such thing as "good ice" and "bad ice," merely ice and water.
The parallel between ice and money is nearly perfect. In the real world there is no such thing as "good money" and "bad money." There is only money and currency. To understand this distinction requires understanding the logical distinction between money and currency.
Sadly, such understanding is rare in the "profession" of economics. This both explains how Gresham's Law ever came into existence in the first place, and why this flawed doctrine has survived as a "law" this long.
Money has an objective, universal definition. While there has been some semantic quibbling about peripheral aspects of this definition, the central, defining quality of "money" is unequivocal: It is a "store of value." What does this mean?When one labors at his or her daily employment, at the end of the day we have earned wealth that is the fruit of our labor. Money is the vessel we use to store that wealth (as savings) in anticipation of converting that wealth into goods and services through using that money as currency in commercial transactions. This immediately brings us to the critical distinction between "money" and mere currency. Money is, and must be, a store of wealth. It is (as described in a previous commentary) a "bucket" we use in which to carry our wealth. Obviously in the real world a "leaky bucket" is an item that cannot exist in conceptual terms. No one will use a bucket that leaks. Thus, in the real world we don't have "good buckets" and "bad buckets" (i.e. leaky buckets). We only have buckets (which people use) and former buckets -- which are now no longer "buckets" at all. Real money is like a real bucket -- it doesn't leak. For thousands of years gold and silver have been "buckets" for our wealth, perfectly preserving the fruits of our labours. Then there is mere paper currency. Paper currency is not a "bucket." In the more than 1,000 years in which we have used this pretend money it has a perfect record. It always loses its value, and then is permanently removed from circulation. Paper currency is not a tool to store wealth (i.e. money). Rather, it is a grossly inferior tool that has only the limited usefulness of being a medium for commerce. As a "store of value," history tells us all we need to know about paper currencies. In the 100 years since the creation of the Federal Reserve the U.S dollar (paper currency) has lost 98% of its value. It's lost roughly 75% of that value in the past 40 years and roughly half of that lost value has occurred in a little more than a decade. When the Federal Reserve first assumed its primary function of preserving the value of the dollar, the dollar only 'leaked' a little. The bankers were able to pretend that it was "bad money" rather than merely currency. However, as that leakage has increased exponentially, it is now patently obvious that this currency is not "money" at all. If Gresham's Law (in its original form) is pure mythology, then what is a correct restatement of the dynamics involved here? To answer that question requires referring to the work of Hugo Salinas Price. With there being no Western examples of economies with "good money" and "bad money" there is only his theoretical model for any modern reference. What would happen if silver ("good money") was introduced into any economy as a parallel currency? Gresham's Law tells us such money would "disappear." This is totally false. Instead, this is what would really happen. People would use silver as a "store of wealth" (i.e. money), meaning they would save all their wealth in silver. The paper currency, on the other hand, would have only one remaining function: as an instrument of commerce. In any remotely healthy economy total wealth increases at least as fast as the rate of commerce (i.e. consumption). This means that the demand for silver ("good money") would remain at least as high as the demand for paper currency ("bad money"). Perhaps more important, in any healthy economy only a small percentage of total wealth is required for current commerce; meaning that most of the "money" would be "good money" (i.e. silver). In fact, this is what we see with historical, empirical evidence. It's not "bad money which drives out good money" but the opposite. Good money drives out bad money. Over the span of several millennia, strong currencies have dominated and driven out weak currencies.The florins, ducats and sequins of the Italian city-states did not become the dollars of the Middle Ages because they were bad coins -- they were among the best coins ever made. The pound sterling in the 19th century and the dollar in the 20th century did not become the dominant currencies of their time because they were weak. Gresham's Law is a lie. Rather, all we really see is that in any economy which has money and currency that money would be used to save wealth, and currency would be used to spend wealth. Nothing profound here at all. It is a myth used to legitimize and justify a paper currency-only monetary system. In a false paradigm of "good money" and "bad money," one can argue that bad money is still "good enough." However, in a real paradigm of money versus currency, having no money at all is not acceptable. The population of any society needs a "store of value" to protect their wealth. The proof of this is the greater-than-50% collapse in our standard of living since the gold standard was assassinated just over 40 years ago and we no longer had any "money" at all. Economies can (and do) prosper with money but no currency. They have never survived a paradigm of currency but no money. Gresham's Law is a lie, and we need real money.

Ohio man who told kids he was Santa had child porn
A 65-year-old northeast Ohio man with a flowing white beard who often told neighborhood children that he was Santa Claus has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for having child pornography on his computer.
A judge in Trumbull County sentenced William F. Brock Sr. of Niles on Thursday after he pleaded guilty to 35 child-pornography charges.
Prosecutors said evidence found on Brock's computer included videos showing rapes being committed against an 8-year-old girl in nearby Austintown in 2012 by his girlfriend.
The girlfriend, 43-year-old Connie Ramirez, was sentenced to 25 years in prison in September for raping two children and having sexually explicit images on a cellphone.
A prosecutor said there no evidence that Brock had sexually assaulted children.
Brock declined to comment in court.
