KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- As two strains of flu spread this year, the University of Tennessee is trying to cut down on the number of cases on campus, by offering flu shots.
The close quarters of campus, can be the perfect breeding grounds for viruses.
Rachel Stevenson is one of many UT students that took a break from classes Wednesday, in hopes of avoiding the flu.
She says, "Everyone is getting sick, and I really don't want to get sick. Senior year, there's a lot of stuff to do, a lot of classes to keep up with, so yeah try to prevent any sickness."
So Rachel got her seasonal flu shot.
Dr. Charlie Barnett is volunteering his time to help with the flu shots, and he says, "These kids live in dorms, fraternity houses, apartment, 4 kids to an apartment or whatever, and if one gets it, they're all gonna get it, so it will really spread through the community here, the university community, like wildfire."
Dr. Barnett hopes the shots will help to keeping the spread of the virus down.
He says, "The flu is mostly an aggravation, a painful type illness but it can kill you."
And with a line wrapping around the hallway, Dr. Barnett says the turnout was better this year than years past.
UT Professor, John Zomchick, says, "I'm doing my part so that I don't get sick, and I don't get other people sick."
As a professor in English at UT, Zomchick comes in contact with hundreds of students everyday.
He says, "I also have a family at home, and I don't want to expose them to anything that I may come in contact with here."
So a few minutes out of his day, and $2 for the shot, John is simply trying to keep from exposing the youngest member of his family to the flu. "I have a 6 month old actually, at home, and the last thing I want to do is make him sick."
But this vaccine is for one of the strains of flu that has already hit the UT campus.
Rachel says she will get the H1N1 vaccine as soon as it's available. "I'm sure my mom won't let me forget it, she actually called me when I was in line and said you need to go get your flu shot and I said, Mom, taken care of."
The money from the flu shots Wednesday went to the Knoxville News Sentinel's empty stocking fund, which provides food and toys to children in East Tennessee during the holidays.
Another fundraiser for the charity is coming up: Free Flu-Shot Saturday will be September 26Th, from 8 a.m. until Noon.
At 6 locations around Knoxville: Austin-East High, Farragut High, Halls High, West High, South-Doyle Middle and Carter High schools.
The event will be for anyone 4 or older and will be on a first-come, first-served basis.

FORT WORTH, Texas -- Bosque Systems, a diversified oil and gas fluids management service company, treated and managed close to 200 million barrels of produced and flowback water for oil and gas operators last year. The company is engaged in sourcing, gathering, storing, treating and delivery of frac ready water to numerous operators.
"A few years ago, Bosque' s business was based solely within the saltwater disposal arena where we own and operate facilities in Texas, Oklahoma, and North Dakota," said Clane LaCrosse, president and CEO of Bosque Systems. "Today our treatment, recycling and reuse programs account for more than half of our revenues and we forecast that this trend will increase in the future."
Bosque Systems works as a partner with oil and gas operators and handles millions of barrels at all phases of the fluid management life cycle. The solutions offered may include sourcing, gathering systems, pipelines, water storage solutions, and various water treatments depending on the water quality, drilling pattern and goals of the operators.
"The introduction of our DIONIX water treatment system was a turning point for Bosque Systems," said Peter Pappas, V.P. of business development for Bosque Systems. "From that point, we generated a lot of interest from operators to recycle flowback or produced water," Peter continued. From this initial success, the company introduced other technologies to provide a single point of contact to operators in need of treatment and recycling.
In the Wolfcamp play, which lies in a very drought prone area, the company is leading the charge to allow operators to reuse 100% of their flowback and produced water, thus minimizing fresh water withdrawal and reducing truck traffic in the region by using pipeline across fields.

French processing company to blame for horsemeat fraud
Published on Feb 15, 2013 1:09 AM
PARIS (REUTERS) - A French investigation into how horsemeat found its way into ready meals in Europe has found that a French processing company called Spanghero sold as beef what could have been horsemeat, the government said on Thursday.
"It would seem that the first agent in this chain to label the meat 'beef' was indeed Spanghero," Consumer Affairs Minister Benoit Hamon said of the company based in the south-western town of Castelnaudry.
"The investigation shows Spanghero knew the meat labelled as beef could be horse. There was a strong suspicion," he said, arguing that Spanghero could also not have failed to notice that the meat in question was much cheaper than beef.
In an emailed statement, Spanghero denied the accusations and said it firmly believed that what it was selling was beef.

SOUTH KINGSTOWN—Even narrowly missing out on the Division I playoffs couldn't damper the South Kingstown girls tennis team's spirits after the complete turnaround the Rebels made from a season ago.
South made its return to D-I last fall – finishing just 1-11 – and were expected to be in a similar situation for 2013.
South (5-7 D-I) defied those expectations though, and with two games to play were still in the mix for a playoff berth.
Unfortunately for the Rebels, they fell just shy as back-to-back 4-3 losses to Moses Brown and Barrington sealed their fate.
SOUTH KINGSTOWN — Two weeks ago the South Kingstown girls soccer team likely would've lost Tuesday night's Division I game with Coventry by a goal.
Had Tuesday's game been played early last week, the Oakers likely would've suffered defeat against the tough Rebels.
Instead, the two teams have started to develop an identity as tough-to-break-down squads which will continue to battle for 80 minutes. Both teams had chances to score – South had the most golden of the opportunities late in the first half – but the teams walked away with a point following a 0-0 draw.
NARRAGANSETT—The result was worth the wait for the Narragansett girls tennis team Tuesday.
The Mariners had to wait nearly 45 minutes past their estimated 3:30 p.m. start time for their Division II Quarterfinal match with Classical but needed less than an hour to dispose of the Purple 4-0 to advance to the semifinals.
WEST GREENWICH — For the third time in as many five-game matches, it looked like the West Warwick volleyball team was going to play well enough to come up just short of a victory over a playoff-bound team.
Three-time defending Division II champion Exeter-West Greenwich scored two straight points to earn two match points. This time, the Wizards weren't going to let all their hard work go to waste.
The Wizards overcame a two-game deficit and then burnt off two match points before finally winning the match 15-25, 5-25, 25-22, 25-22, 16-14 on an EWG hitting error.
WEST GREENWICH – Neither injuries, nor penalties, nor a slow start could beset the Exeter-West Greenwich High School football team as their quest for Division IV perfection continued at home last Saturday as the Knights overcame everything stacked against them with a third quarter explosion that buried Smithfield, 35-6.
COVENTRY — The North Kingstown volleyball team pushed Coventry harder than any team has pushed the two-time defending state champions this season. But the Skippers, just like many of Coventry's opponents, had no answer for senior middle Sam Higgins and junior outside hitter Jill Ward.
Ward went over, around and through North's blocks all evening to finish with a match-high 18 kills, while Higgins used her speed and skill to record 12 kills and seven blocks.

Fighting for a fishery
The Churchill River Diversion swamped lucrative whitefish fishery
In the 1970s, the provincial government allowed Manitoba Hydro to divert the second largest river in the province and flood the fourth largest lake, displacing a vibrant community in the process.
The project, known as Churchill River Diversion, was contentious. A provincial election was lost over it. Eventually though, a scaled-back version of the diversion went ahead, having been sold to the citizens of Manitoba on the basis it would contribute to a brighter future and be operated according to water flows and levels as set out in a 1973 interim Water Power Act licence.
This was the moral contract that allowed for our community of South Indian Lake to be forcibly moved and our environment turned upside down. This is what we believed to be the deal. Sadly, that contract has been largely ignored.
Instead of requiring Hydro to finalize the interim licence -- as was supposed to happen shortly after construction -- the government has allowed the utility to continually and flagrantly stretch the terms of the licence.
As for the promised brighter future, we're still waiting.
The water on our lake first went up in 1976. Southern Indian Lake is essentially a widening of the Churchill River, which flows eastward across the province, emptying into Hudson Bay at the town of Churchill. The Missi Falls Control Structure blocks the eastern outflow of the lake, causing it to rise. The swollen lake overflows southward through a man-made channel into a 300-plus kilometre diversion route down the Rat-Burntwood River system. That system then empties into the Nelson River where Manitoba Hydro's primary dams are located.
The diversion increases the power producing potential of the Nelson River dams by up to 40 per cent. It also turns our lake into a reservoir in which Hydro can store water for when it is needed.
Hydro's benefits come at our expense. The effects of the Churchill River Diversion are drastic. More than 800-square-kilometres of land are permanently flooded. Thousands of kilometres of critical shoreline habitat are affected. We see severe shoreline destabilization and erosion. Natural fluctuations of water throughout the seasons -- which are essential for the health of shoreline ecosystems -- are a thing of the past. The dams to the east and south of us prevent natural fish migration.
Our lake is sick and dying -- the result of "clean" hydro.
The diversion has also created a legacy of social, economic and cultural harm. First was the indignity of the Manitoba government imposing the project on us without our consent. Second, the community of South Indian Lake was forced to move because of the flooding. This move created lasting trauma for many of our people.
Then our fur industry and prized fishery -- the economic base of our community -- started to decline.
Prior to the Churchill River Diversion, the whitefish fishery on South Indian Lake was the second largest of its kind in North America, producing a million pounds of Grade A whitefish annually. In the years after the water went up, the numbers dropped to 600,000 pounds. The decline has continued. Last season we got less than 100,000 pounds of all types of fish combined.
The fishery was the cornerstone of our community for generations. Its collapse means a dismal future for the many households that relied on fishing. It also reduces options for our youth.
South Indian Lake was originally established because of the great abundance of fish and fur for both domestic and commercial purposes. For generations we were prosperous, culturally vibrant and economically independent.
We know our lake will never return to its original glory, but we feel if Hydro were required to live up to the seemingly long-forgotten original licence terms, we would at least have a fighting chance to rebuild our fishery and our future.
The 1973 interim licence required Hydro to maintain the lake level between 844 and 847 feet above sea level. Most important in our view, it allowed Hydro a maximum draw down of the lake within any 12-month period of two feet. Those were the terms on which the project was sold to our people. That is how we believed it was going to be operated.
In 1978 Hydro asked to test the diversion operations over an increased range of water level fluctuations. This "testing" -- in violation of licence terms -- persisted over the years, with the government's knowledge. In 1986, the government gave written permission for what it called the Augmented Flow Program, which essentially replaced the terms of the Churchill River Diversion licence. It allowed Hydro to flood the lake by another half foot, and instead of a maximum two-foot drawdown of the lake in any 12-month period, the new maximum was 4.5 feet.
Never did Hydro or the government come to our community to consult us about this. This fundamentally changed what we believed to be our moral contract with the government, but we did not consent to it.
Nor has the government ever required a comprehensive environmental review of this project that drastically alters the second largest river and fourth largest lake in the province as well as the 300-km diversion route.
The government continues to approve the augmented-flow program annually.
Now, Hydro has finally applied to have the 40-year-old interim licence finalized, but the version they want finalized is the augmented flow water regime, not the original one. Hydro's application includes no changes to what has become business as usual for them. We find this shocking. Change is what we have desperately needed for decades. Business as usual is the destruction of our people and lands.
The Commercial Fishermen's Association of South Indian Lake calls on the Manitoba government to require Manitoba Hydro to operate the Churchill River Diversion according to the terms under which it was originally licensed.
We also call on the government to hold public hearings as part of the diversion's final-licensing process. They have done this with respect to Lake Winnipeg regulation, which is also subject to a greatly belated final licensing process. If southern cottagers deserve a public hearing so do northern fishers.
For decades we have asked ourselves: What right does the government have to authorize the destruction of our community and surrounding lands? By what right has it allowed Manitoba Hydro to stretch the original licence beyond recognition?
We have sacrificed so much for the sake of Manitoba Hydro. And we recognize the proposed new dams would also benefit greatly from the Churchill River's diversion. As much as 40 per cent of water flowing through them would come from our flooded lake. That is not acknowledged.
We were promised the Churchill River Diversion would not only operate according to the original licence, but it would contribute to a bright future. We ask the government to honour its word. Government leaders speak about a new era of hydro development. We are waiting for that era to arrive in South Indian Lake.
Steve Ducharme is president of the South Indian Lake Commercial Fishermen's Association.

Discuss "Time Warp" in Our Grey's Anatomy Forum!by Steve Marsi at . Comments
Grey's Anatomy is brand new tonight, although in a way it is quite old. "Time Warp" will feature three separate flashback sequences as the doctors look back on past cases.
We'll get to see Callie shortly before she was introduced to the show, Bailey as a fresh-faced intern in '03, and the Chief working with Ellis in the '80s (see sneak previews).
Are you excited about seeing these unique vantage points into some of our favorite characters, or would you rather just have a conventional episode to look forward to tonight?
Either way, discuss it with the #1 fan community before, during and after the show in our Grey's Anatomy forum! TVF will post a review, quotes, music and more after it airs.
What are you most looking forward to tonight? What are you concerned about? We want to hear from you! Click the pic below or the link above and be heard!
What will "Mandy" Bailey's flashback - and the rest of the episode - entail?

Большинство этих особенностей с лёгкостью могли отследить парикмахеры, работающие с населением и следящие за рынком крем-гели круглые сутки. Именно из-за своей скупости большинство покупателей пожалели, что не прибегли к помощи профессионалов или связались с дилетантами. Ведь впоследствии им пришлось искать иные варианты, но уже по более высоким ценам. http://yatut.su/showthread.php...
I liked this episode, although I think that Sarah Paulson was probably not the best choice for young Ellis Grey...not because of lacking acting skills, but I think that SP has such a warmness in her eyes, her whole personality seems so warm and kind etc, and let's face it, the Ellis Grey we knew (and never loved) was a cold-hearted bitch. In my opinion, she would never be that supportive of a patient, she'd only see the challenge in the case. So the scene where she and Richard are with the dying AIDS patient is just out of character.
But all in all, solid episode, nothing extraordinary, but loved the ending when Richard "took" the oath again. About the whole Izzie thing: I miss her as part of the group, her not being there just changes the whole dynamic. She's not my fave, but yesterday I watched a couple of eps from season 1 and 2, and they were soooo much more better with focusing on the main characters, bringing the group dynamic on etc.
Well I guess with George's death it pretty much died anyway, Izzie's absence is just another nail in the coffin.
Personally,I liked the episode. Even my 17 year old son, said this was a good one! I was very impressed with Richard and
Ellis 's characters being brought more into the light. It was good to see Meredith's face, as Richard talked about her mother and the impact she had on him,and the hospital, thru the work they were doing.
There are still so many demons plaguing her about her mother. Ellis payed a high price for her dedication to her work, and her daughter is a living reminder of that to Richard. But, there is such healing happening with his openness in this lecture. She is growing as a person thru all of this! Dr Bailey, has got to be one of my favorite characters, she is amazing! Born to be a doctor! Loved the candy throwing!! Especially, nailing Yang in the head. Bailey rules! Shonda Rimes never deviates from the True character of Bailey. Bailey, has many sides to her. But, Shonda never takes us to a place in her character, that is unbelievable for us. She develops her character in such a way, that is honest, endearing and very beautiful! Now, on to Calliope...I cannot help but fall madly in love with this character. There is something so beautiful and broken in her. She is such a conundrum. I have never seen a character on such a quest of self discovery. She is so confused about alot of things, but she embraces herself in the mist of it. She is a woman with convictions. Strong, independent, and driven
to be the best ortho doctor she can possibly be. She has so many interesting sides to be developed in her. Passionate and sexy, to opposite sexes. She is fun and playful with an impulsive nature, Quick to act on all of her urges. It will be interesting to see how Arizona tames this wild creature! Wonder if these two will make the long haul? I absolutely love them together! Thoughts on how Arizona will respond to this info about korev?
K-Heigl would have stayed great had she appreciated her job and what made her famous. But she took what Grey's gave her and decided to go out on her own. Which in the end is going to bite her in the ass. There are probably thousands of actresses with pretty faces out there that can act as well as she does. I am loving the eppys with out her and George. Everytime KH is on and episode it is as if the whole show has to revolve around her.
@jr, Totally agree with everything you said.
the song is called Everywhere i go by Lissie.
This episode was a bit of a disappointment for me too. I get what the writer's where trying to do with all the flashbacks (and the Bailey minnow thing was HILARIOUS) but it felt like more of a filler episode then a real one. I mean nothing happened?! Alex and Izzie's relationship is still up in the air, Mark and Lexie are still not talking and they've still got that weird "love triangle" to figure out with Teddy, Owen and Cristina. There's real story lines that need to be resolved writers! Let's get to it!
Hey all!! Does any one know the song name at the end of tonights episode? ( the time warp)
Ok, I'm sorry, but this episode was just down right boring. I thought it would be more interesting than it was, more drama, tension, etc. but this episode just seemed to disappoint. It was nice to see the three stories behind Richard, Callie, and Bailey, but they could have made them more exciting. Also, there was none of the interaction that I love. Alex and Christina always end up having the funniest conversations as they both throw insults at each other, and what about Lexie and Mark? What about Izzie? Come on, there are other story lines (extremely major ones I might add) that need to be wrapped up. I honestly forgot about the whole elevator thing until today. I think that the stories should have been told in a different way and more in depth. For example, I was really interested in the patient Callie was treating, but they didn't spend enough time for me to enjoy the story line. What I love about Grey's is that they always get in depth about all the patients, all their backgrounds, personalities, everything. This episode just showed the bare minimum. To me, this episode was like eating a pizza with no cheese. All in all, this episode was just lacking in substance.
This episode was just amazing. Grey's Anatomy really stepped it up tonight. It was heart-breaking and powerful. That last scene with Richard and Ellis and the AIDS patient was moving. This episode was just soo good.

Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat
|This article does not cite any references or sources. (October 2013)
The Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat is a five star hotel, situated in Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat in the French Riviera.
Luxury hotels were invented to be the stuff of dreams. The highest ranking of all the many "palaces" that sprang up all over the French Riviera, the Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat overlooks the sea from the furthermost tip of the peninsula from which it takes its name.
At the turn of the 20th Century, Cap-Ferrat was little more than a wilderness of rocks and dense scrubland, vegetation that only changed as real estate began to develop there. At the end of the 19th century, piece by piece, King Leopold II of Belgium purchased the peninsula's only wooded area, and then proceeded to expand his estate by buying up most of the vacant land around.
Shortly before 1900, Leopold sold part of his property to a company founded by a Mr. Péretmère, the son of a coachman from the north who had some savings of his own. He reserved six and a half hectares of the land for the hotel, whose construction began in 1908 with the two wings built at an open angle to each other, then the following year a loggia dining room and the large, central Rotonde were added. By then the building had its final, distinctive silhouette, remarkably simple for the time. A little later, the Grand-Hôtel was bought by Madame Ferras, a widow and the grandmother of famous violinist Christian Ferras.
From Hotel to Hospital[edit]
The First World War broke out shortly after the new owner's arrival and the hotel became a hospital. In 1922, two professional hoteliers, Messrs Henri Dehouve and André Voyenne (my father), acquired a majority shareholding and took over the running of the company. They were to remain in charge for over twenty years, a period marked not only by the Great Depression and the Second World War, but also by a complete revolution in holidaying habits.
When the sun was the enemy[edit]
Since it first became known in the second half of the 19th Century, and up until the 1930s, the French Riviera remained almost exclusively a luxury destination. Most visitors were either wealthy individuals of independent means or royalty from northern countries, in particular England and Russia. They came only in winter and for long visits. Queen Victoria and her court, numerous aristocratic families, Princess Louise, the Duke of Connaught, President Paul Deschanel and many other politicians of the French 3rd Republic, the pianist Marguerite Long, the violinist Jacques Thibaud, and movie stars such as Charles Boyer, Charlie Chaplin and many others were to follow.
The summer season emerges[edit]
Not until 1930 did a few unconventional visitors venture down to the Riviera in summertime, mostly avant-garde writers and artists. They all came in search of solitude, since practically nobody came then, and relished a certain snobbery surrounding their alternative style of travelling. In Cap-Ferrat itself, these new habits arrived purely by chance. During the summer of 1933, the German filmmaker G.W. Pabst persuaded Chaliapine to star in his version of Don Quixote. Since he did not have the funds to film in Spain, the director decided that Cap-Ferrat's landscape would be perfectly suitable. One day, the film crew appeared at the hotel, which was closed at the time but nevertheless offered them improvised accommodation for a few weeks. The actors and film crew were so delighted with their stay in this heavenly location that many of them asked to return the following year for a private visit. Little by little, the summer season emerged, attracting a whole new generation of holidaymakers, younger and more athletic than their predecessors and seeking sun and sea above all else. Since the hotel's rocky coastline made it difficult to reach the sea, a cove was blasted from the rock.
The dark years, then a revival and metamorphosis[edit]
A few weeks after the beginning of the war, the Grand-Hôtel was boarded up and plunged into darkness for six long years. On March 5, 1944, in preparation for an allied landing, the entire peninsula was evacuated and riddled with mines. Local inhabitants were given only a few hours to grab some of their belongings and flee. Thankfully, the hotel and swimming pool survived entirely unscathed by nearby shelling and by the explosion that destroyed the lighthouse. Text: extracts by André Voyenne
- Upon the reopening at the end of the war, the procession of the great, rich and famous continued ; the European royal houses, lords and barons from England; the great entrepreneurs of finance and industry, glittering literary and artistic celebrities.
Other illustrious guests were the novelist Somerset Maugham, Charlie Chaplin, Winston Churchill and Aristote Onassis. The legendary swimming instructor, Pierre Gruneberg, has given lessons to Picasso, as well to both Paul McCartney's and Frank Sinatra's children.
2009 will see the completion of a metamorphosis that blends tradition, innovation and respect for nature.
The extension will be built in two phases while the hotel is closed from October to April 2007- 2008 and 2008–2009, and will open in May 2009.
The project was designed by architect Luc Svetchine and comprises 16 rooms, 8 suites with private plunge pools, a 7500sq.feet spa with indoor swimming pool and the creation of two new suites on the garden level of the main building.
The grounds are the work of landscape gardener Jean Mus. With the construction of new underground car parks, the above-ground parking areas will disappear.
Rooms and suites[edit]
As of May 1, 2009, the Grand Hotel du Cap Ferrat will propose 74 rooms (including 24 suites and the Penthouse), a 7,500 sq ft (700 m2) spa & fitness center and a 5,500 sq ft (510 m2) presidential suite, the Villa Rose-Pierre with its sea-view and pine grove.
The Grand-Hôtel serves food from three locations: at the Le Cap Gastronomic Restaurant, on its terrace overlooking the Mediterranean and shaded by Aleppo pines, or at the Club Dauphin Restaurant next to the pool.
Vintage wines[edit]
The Grand-Hotel du Cap-Ferrat maintains a collection of well-known vintage wines:
- 140 vintage bottles of Château d'Yquem dating from 1854 to 2003
- 38 vintage bottles of Château Lafite Rothschild dating from 1799 to 2003
Music Festival[edit]
The Grand-Hotel du Cap-Ferrat Music Festival Artistic director : Michael Desjardins
The Festival is an up-to-date version of the tradition of salon music, which dates back to centuries past, and of the jazz clubs and Parisian café-theatres where audiences would rub shoulders with the artists. The Rotonde, designed by Gustave Eiffel, is a comfortable venue with outstanding acoustics. The programme spans every genre of vocal and instrumental music from all eras: opera, classical music, baroque music, film soundtracks, international variety, jazz, traditional music, and first performances of original works of contemporary music.

DAYUMN! That there is some clear beer!
Way to go man...I'll have to look into the Brewbright!
Damn that looks tasty. And clear. Good to see that cottage cheese you added during the boil didn't affect it at all.
There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
Where did you buy the Polyclar Brewbrite? I did a quick Google search for it and this post came up as the 5th result, so pretty high on the list. Plenty of links for ISP Corp who apparently makes the stuff, but no retailer links. I guess it's a new product?
Fermenting: Pale Ale, Blonde Ale
On Tap: Milk Stout, Bitter
Growing: Cascade, Centennial, Newport, Willamette
I have to say that you must be extremely pleased with this beer and I would like to try the same recipe and yeast so I can experience what you have done. I would hope that it would work the same here. Please share your source for this clarifier as I can not locate any source for it on the web. The MFG's web site is not working for some reason........ Maybe the demand has outstriped the servers's ability to respond.
WBC Fermentor 1: Bill's House Ale II, Fermentor 2: German Helles, Fermentor 3: Bill's Schworzbier (Black Bier)Tap 1: Bill's House Ale II, Tap 2: German Hefewizen, Tap 3: Nut Brown AleFuture Brews: Stone IPA Clone, Blonde Ale, Budvar Clone, Newcastle CloneNew toy: Blichmann 27 gallon fermentorIf you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lotta that comes from bad judgment
That is some clear beer! I think the curds were the coagulated proteins from the brewbrite. You'll have a lot more proteins from the hot and cold break with an AG beer than an extract. The extract has already had most of these proteins removed during the drying/evaporating phase of extract production.
I am looking into purchasing a bulk order (22 lbs) of polyclar brewbrite from ISP. If this isn't cost prohibitive, or illegal, I could potentially be the commercial source. If I do this, would anyone be interested in getting some from me? If so, what quantity would you want and how much would you be willing to pay? I currently have 8 oz of the stuff (8 oz x 28 g/oz = 224 g. 8 oz fills up a quart jar. I used 2 tsp (est. 2 g, but I don't have a scale) for my 5 gal koelsch batch, which seemed like a good amount. I was thinking of taking 2 tsp of Brewbrite and weighing it on a scale at work to get the precise quantity in grams.
I will post more info when I hear from ISP
My last batch of stout did that same cottage cheese looking stuff using a White Labs Irish Ale yeast. All of my previous batches using the same yeast did not. No other ingredients changed and I don't use polyclar...only a whirlfloc tablet. Beer came out tasting the same as ever, but it was weird looking.
my last message ended up posting twice b/c my internet was messed up.
I might be interested in purchasing some. Probably just enough for 10 batches or so. I wonder what it would do in a wheat beer? might be interesting to experiment with.
how about posting the recipe and procedure you used. Maybe we can all replicate it and photo our curds and enjoy that kolsch you are raving about!

San Diego Beer Week in America's craft beer Mecca means more beer, food, pairings, nth level and over-the-top events than one person can attend. This excess of events naturally has heads turning in every direction, trying to figure out where to spend their time and sate their thirst for incredible beer. To make this process easier, here's a complete run down of all the events we have planned at our two Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens in Escondido and Liberty Station.
Liberty Station
Constants & Variables: The Lupulin Loop
As the Brewing Manager at Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station. I would like to introduce a new series of beers that will rotate through our central San Diego brewery-restaurant. We at Stone make no secret of our love for hops and are always pushing the boundaries with beer experimentations—especially when it comes to hops. For years, we've played with multiple hop varieties, and the impact to our IPAs has been immense. One may ask, with so many hop varieties out there, how we do we continue to develop so many new and successful IPAs? Truth is it's never as easy as throwing a bunch of hops into our wort and crossing our fingers. Every hop is different, unique and complex with a wide range of flavors and aromas that could be compared to fruits, spices and even vegetables. We spend a lot of time getting intimately acquainted with the myriad of hops in our chilled down lockers, and now it's time for our fans to get in on that familiarization.
Enter what I have come to refer to as, "The Lupulin Loop." Why the Lupulin Loop? Maybe I just watched Groundhog's Day too much as a kid. Maybe it's because Tom Cruise just came out with that movie Edge of Tomorrow. Or maybe I'm still trying to play through Bioshock Infinite and I learned that when Elizabeth goes through the tears she goes to another dimension where everything looks the same but it's actually different. Regardless, it's all about constants and variables. With these beers, they'll always have the same malts, alcohol, IBU (international bittering units), PH, color…or as close to the same as I can possibly get them. The only thing that will change in the beer is the single variety of hop being used (even for bittering). The base of the beer is the constant (the loop), while the hop (Lupulin…the compound in hops that provides that addictive bitterness we all love) is the sole variable.
#PairedWith Wages On: Stone Coffee Milk Stout
When we debuted Stone Saison, we did more than introduce our unique spin on a Belgian-style ale. We also ushered in a new age that allows our fans to get involved with discovering the best-suited edible vehicles for maximum enjoyment of our beers, all thanks to a hashtag—#PairedWith. When Stone Saison came out, we provided a quartet of recipes constructed to pair perfectly with the beer, so fans could prepare them and experience food-and-beer symbiosis for themselves. But we also asked fans to experiment with dishes and ingredients they thought would go well with Stone Saison and share their most successful pairings on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest using #PairedWith. It was fun, educational and, at times, even surprising, and lots of people from beer- and food-bloggers to everyday craft beer nuts, got involved. So, we're moving forward with our #PairedWith initiative, this time with a beer that's completely different but amazingly well-suited for sidling up beside a variety of dishes, both savory and sweet—our new Stone Coffee Milk Stout.
Top Chef in the House: Amanda Vs. The Arbolcots
We knew Amanda Baumgarten could cook, but once we caught a glimpse of one of her homebrew recipes, it was abundantly clear that her artisanal skills extended beyond the kitchen and into the brewing arena. A former cheftestant on Bravo TV's wildly popular competition show Top Chef, the talented toque recently opened a thriving gastropub called Waypoint Public in San Diego's North Park neighborhood. Despite being in one of the most craft beer-centric parts of the city (the community is also home to Toronado San Diego, Tiger! Tiger! Tavern, Mike Hess Brewing Company, Thorn St. Brewery and lots more), her restaurant is known for having one of the best beer selections in town. That clout rose even more this summer when Baumgarten was able to add a beer of her own devising to the tap list—Amanda Vs. The Arbolcots.
Taste Bud: Meet Our New Chef
It took us years (yep, plural, as in more than two 365-day spans) to open San Diego's largest operating restaurant in the city's Liberty Station community. Because of that site's historic status—the mixed-use development was built on the former Naval Training Center campus, which was formerly the largest U.S. Navy training site on the West Coast—there were many considerations that needed to be taken to maintain the integrity of the structure we took over, especially since we were installing a kitchen and seating for more than 600 diners at a time, but also a 10-barrel brewhouse with a 60-barrel capacity cellar. We put a lot of thought into every single detail at Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station, and that goes double (if not triple or quadruple…this is starting to sound like a run-down of Trappist ale styles) for the food. We knew we'd need a special talent—someone bold, determined and committed—and that's just what we found in our Executive Chef Thomas Connolly.
Farm to Fork: Stone's Farm-to-Tableism
Stone has some pretty strict philosophies when it comes to food. We stand by local and organically cultivated ingredients because we know they're better for the environment, and they taste pretty darn good, too. You can get amazing items prepared with truly farm-to-table ingredients every day at our three Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens locations, but there are a few nights out of the year where we take it to the next level of freshitude—Fresh Dinners. These feasts are made solely from ingredients procured the very same day, and some of those ingredients come from our very own Stone Farms.
Happy New Beer: Stone's 2014 Events Calendar
We don't have a crystal ball, but no bogus future-telling devices are necessary to assure our fans that the New Year holds much promise and a full slate of fun-filled beer-centric events here at Stone. From some of the country's most highly anticipated beer festivals to educational session and outright gorge-fests, there's something for every kind of beer lover, and we're proud to bring as much variety as we will delicious craft ales and lagers. The following is a breakdown of what we have in store for you in 2014!
Beerophiles, Start Your Engines: San Diego Beer Week 2013
A tradition a half-decade in the making, few happenings pack as much inventive beer, education and sheer enjoyment as the ten-day journey to the center of the country's craft beer epicenter, San Diego Beer Week. All of the nearly eighty breweries in our extensive home county push the envelope to provide the most incredible events they can, and we are no different. Each year is an opportunity to cull through our cellars for rare and just plain phenomenal beer, collaborate with our brewing friends, invite in our beer-loving fans and put on a show in support of our industry, region and craft beer in general. If you're planning to take in this year's festivities, read on for a complete schedule of what we'll be doing to celebrate, then make time in your beery, breakneck itinerary to spend some time sipping in San Diego Beer Week with us.
Give Us Liberty (& Give Us Beer)!: Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station
They say good things come to those who wait. Fermentation has proven this true for us time and time again; however, we are, at our core, pretty darn impatient. We have grand aspirations and want to push the craft beer envelope by providing new ways for people to experience hand-crafted ales and lagers. Grand aspirations require grand gestures. Grand gestures take grand effort. Grand effort mandates a boatload of time, and that equates to a whole lot of waiting for our grand aspirations to be forged into reality. Never has this been truer than in the case of construction of our second farm-to-table restaurant, Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station. It took us years to take it from the grand aspiration phase to the tangible and absolutely magnificent (if we do say so ourselves, and we just did) brick-and-mortar bastion of good beer and quality cuisine it's become. The waiting was the hardest part, but, once again, it was all worth it. Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station is open for business and Worthy all of the hard work it took to get it to that point. Allow us to show you around…
Beer, Baseball & Patriotism: Operation Homefront IPA
Craft beer is life here at Stone. In the best cases, however, our beer has the ability to make positive impacts on the lives of others. Such is the case with one of the first beers brewed up on our brand new ten-barrel brewhouse at our equally new second farm-to-table restaurant, Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens – Liberty Station: Operation Homefront IPA. Liberty Station Brewing Manager Kris Ketcham joined the ranks of several brewers across the country to craft this beer for Operation Homefront, a non-profit organization supporting and bettering the lives of U.S. Military families, as part of their Hops For Heroes initiative. That program was supported not only by American craft breweries including Left Hand Brewing Company, Cigar City Brewing and 21st Amendment Brewery, but also Major League Baseball and Louisville Slugger, making for a great example of strength in numbers being channeled into making a big difference through great beer and even better intentions.

Accounting sleuths on the trail of Madoff money
Teams of 'forensic accountants' get set to trace – and maybe recover – funds lost in $50 billion Ponzi scheme.
New York
Accounting teams are sharpening their pencils and preparing to pore over spreadsheets in an effort to trace the money at Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, which stands accused of perpetrating the largest investment scandal in history.
If the past is any indication, this group of bean counters – call them CSIs with eyeshades – will uncover some assets that can eventually be returned to bilked investors.
Known as forensic accountants, they will comb through the books – in this case multiple sets of books – in a bid to track $50 billion that Mr. Madoff has said disappeared in one giant Ponzi scheme.
"They will be looking for records, fake invoices, cooked books, red flags, anything that doesn't make sense," says Larry Crumbley, the KPMG-endowed professor of accounting at Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge. "They will just be following the computer and paper trail, rather than the DNA."
No one knows exactly how many forensic accountants are available to track money lost to fraud. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has 500 to 600 such accountants whose main job is tracing various types of illegal financial activity, estimates Dr. Crumbly.

'Living history'
Volunteers and crew help clean, paint LST 325
Doug and Jim Seib of Sarasota, Fla. — among dozens of volunteers in town this week for the annual spruce-up of the LST 325 — took a break from chipping some paint in a former sleeping quarters below deck.
"Go ahead, Dad, tell him about the time you guys stole a Jeep," Doug Seib encouraged his 82-year-old father.
When Jim Seib balked, his son chided: "They're not going to come after you after all these years."
The son clearly loved to hear his father's story of how the men aboard an LST stationed in the Pacific Theater during World War II stole an Army Jeep, painted it Navy blue for their captain, but eventually had to push it overboard to avoid being caught with contraband.
But Jim Seib's mind was elsewhere.
"We were within five weeks of hitting mainland Japan," he recalled, choking back emotion. "If it wasn't for the A-bomb (dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki to end the war) we would all have been killed. ... Doug wouldn't be here. It saved millions of lives, millions of Japanese."
Doug smiled: "This is our third trip to Evansville. I'm honoring my dad, and we're making memories. He's 82, getting a little forgetful. He kind of brightens when he steps onboard, is like a little kid."
Each year the ship moored at Marina Pointe has its Workweek in April, attracting volunteers who paint and do upkeep and general maintenance.
"If we didn't have these volunteers, we couldn't get the job done," said Larry Hahn of Newburgh, one of four deck chiefs.
Many are retirees from every branch of the military, but some never have been in uniform. And not all of them are men.
Sherry Witt, an office worker from Des Moines, Iowa, was painting a fire pump bright red in the tank deck Wednesday morning, an area that once could hold 25 Sherman tanks.
She explained she'd much rather be vacationing in Evansville, among LST crew members she's come to admire, than on some sunny beach in Mexico.
"I'm really happy when I'm here," she added. "We're having fun. But, no, there are no quarters for women — yet!"
Feeling compelled 'to give back'
After watching a History Channel movie about a group of retired sailors (some in their 70s) who rescued the LST 325 from a Greek scrapyard and sailed it back to this country seven years ago, she felt compelled "to give back."
"I'm completely amazed and fascinated that these men, who gave so much for their country (in different wars) persevered over obstacles I can only imagine," Witt added.
Sandra Scherer of Ohio was in the galley, fixing barbecue sandwiches and venison burgers.
"I'm here with my husband, Fred," she said. "Oh, man, this is the hardest I've worked in years."
Rocky Hill, 83, of Phoenix was part of the original group that saved the vessel in Greece.
"I come back whenever I can get a free airline ticket," he quipped as he moved fuel oil from a storage tank to a settling tank, then a purifier and day tank.
In 1943-44, the Spokane, Wash., native was a young sailor aboard a different LST making seven invasions in the Pacific, including Leyte in the Philippines.
'You don't have any fear'
"At the time you're a kid," he recalled. "You don't have any fear, but that's wrong. At Leyte I sure had a lump in my throat."
The Japanese were attacking, but Hill's LST was told not to fire back because American troops onshore could be injured. A bomb bent the LST's shaft.
"We were part of MacArthur's Navy," he said, remembering the day Gen. Douglas MacArthur came ashore in the Philippines.
Old-timers like Hill make this week worthwhile for 9-year-old Jake Kemman of Newburgh.
"This is living history," said Jake's dad, Fred Kemman, as the two took a break from painting.
"Jake is home-schooled, so this week school is the LST," said Kemman, a native of Maryland who moved to this area a year ago.
As Jake showed off his yellow Workweek T-shirt spackled in paint, one of the old-timers, noticing a splotch of paint in the boy's hair, razzed him: "He's kind of young, but he's turning gray headed."

Hello, all!
Wondering if anyone can help me. I've been asked to make a cake for a girl scout event on Monday that feeds around 40 people. I'm thinking of making a double layer 9 x 13 cake. I need to somehow get the girl scout emblem (the green one, with the girl's heads) on the cake. Should I do a transfer with piping gel? Should I create it out of Color Flow and place it on? I'm planning on frosting in buttercream. Any ideas?

Didn't get an early start on your Valentine's Day prep? No worries! Here are three are three ways to you can get ready right now.
How About Orange blogger Jessica Jones rounded up a gaggle of adorable cards that you can download for free. Print on cardstock and slip one to your sweetheart. Snag them here.
No time to bake? It just takes a few seconds to add some charm to grocery store goodies. The key to adding a Valentine's Day twist to everyday baked goods? A sweet homemade cupcake topper. Use a heart-shaped craft punch to cut two hearts out of patterned scrapbook paper. Then, cut a slit halfway up each heart: one going up from the bottom point towards the center, and one from the center going down towards the bottom point. To get the 3D effect, fit the two hearts together like puzzle pieces. Place a dab of hot glue on the back of one of the hearts, and attach a toothpick or small wooden skewer. (Pssst! You can also play up the Valentine's angle by opting for red velvet cake. Delicious and festive.)
These two garlands are practically free, and come together in seconds.
Track down a deck of cards to make a cheeky banner fit for the Queen of Hearts. Punch holes on the sides of each card, and thread through with twine, alternating card facings, as shown.
Even simpler: a garland made with paper doilies. Grab some from the dollar store, or find them online at Party City for less than $1 per pack. Then hang 'em from colorful ribbon with petite clothespins. Get the full how-to at the blog Stay-At-Home Artist.

Whoa, I've written somethign relating to Pokemon? That's strange. I usually do not write anything at all pokemon related, at least not in the last two to three years. but, meh after reading some of the fiction here, I was inspired.
It's a little monologue from the pokemon's pov. NOthing original. Just the bitter thoughts of a Pocket monster.
We are like marionettes. Marionettes who are petted and pampered, but we are marionettes nonetheless.
He tells me to do something, and I do it. My sister on the other side of the field is told to do something else by that ugly bitch of a woman and she does it as well. Well, I shouldn't call her an ugly bitch, because she herself has petted and fed me many a time, when my master, pardon me if I scoff at the word, would punish me for having dishonored him. But, still they are all the vilest of kinds on this living planet.
We might not have any visible strings like marionettes, but they still exist. That prison that they put us in and those horrifying machines that force new found vigor into my body, while stealing just another bit of my soul and will away from me. It is like that game the human children play. The one where there are two wooden beasts on either end and they both fight each other according to the buttons pressed by the players. Marionettes, I tell you.
There my master tells me to go and attack my sister. They call it play, but it is no play to me. She is my sister, and we are to attack each other for what reason? I am neither hunting for food, nor defending my territory. I wouldn't want to defend it either, A prison of unconscious thought and darkness.
They say there is luxury higher up in the later types of prisons, but I doubt it. A prison is a prison, no matter what you call it. I don't know what you call luxury, but luxury to me is free will and choice. I did not choose to be sucked in by a grasping bloody light that forces me into another egg. It isn't like the egg I originally fought my way out of though. That one provided me with warmth and comfort. This one only gives me harsh memories and darkness. Only thing I look forward is to being let out of the egg. I cannot even call it egg. That would be an insult to my birth. I rather say prison. Yes, a cold heartless human made prison.
I've been with my master for about thirty years and we still don't know each other that well. He hurts me, he feeds me, he hurts me, and he feeds me. The feeding hurts more though. Why? Because I am unable to get my own food, that is why.
Vile creatures! Our living planet to them is just another resource. It grows and nurtures for us all to feed of it, and they cut and debilitate it. It is horrifying. We, beasts know our place and we can see that there is not to be a future for us pretty soon. A lot of our kind has died, and yet these bastard humans don't realize. When they start dropping, will it be too late?
I can't even lose this fight, or it is the machine for me. It hurts too much to think of it. But, can I let my sister go through it as well? They are all bastards.
Marionettes. That is what we are. We have more strings and attachments than wooden marionettes. Words, commands, constructs, and the darkness. Can I lose, or do I let my sister lose?
The darkness of the prison calls to its prisoners, and drains them of their will. It is all I can do now to survive the torture of the egg and the machine. IT hurts but I have seen the wild and the trees of the forest. My sister, she does not even know that. Born inside an invisible cage, she was brought up by the humans.
Does it hurt more to bear it yourself, or to see others not even have the strength and will within them to defend themselves?
I don't know. But, it hurts nonetheless.

The Curious Case of Caloric Restriction
For those of you who might like to read a good article relating to the subject of caloric restriction and what is being studied and revealed at this time, this is an interesting article. Not too scientific, but pretty interesting. (And apparently Dr. Johnson's *Resveratrol* isn't where it's at. :laugh: And that SIRT1 gene? Probably not either. :laugh: But the calorie restriction with optimum nutrition is dynamite!)
thanks for the article. I just put the book The CR Way on reserve at my local library. I look forward to reading it.
Great article!! :up: Still like the "skinny gene" idea, though! :D
Guess that's why I no longer buy into much of it very whole-heartedly, not the nutritionists and the healers, not the health nuts and the vitamin pushers, nor the next blogger, the next book author, the next doctor's diet. Gee, just call me a semi-skeptic about a lot of current dietary thought. And I'm not just talking about the most recent food pyramid. :laugh:
I'm pretty willing to listen to it all, read my eyes bleary, explore the various concepts, try things... and then in the end, do whatever I want. :hyst:
I'm liking JUDDD.
But I did like this little bit from the studies:
"..........caloric restriction switches biochemical pathways on or off, resulting in higher insulin sensitivity, decreased inflammation, enhanced cardiovascular functioning, reduced muscle wasting with age, and improved resistance to cellular stress.........."
I think this is one thing to consider when deciding to stick with JUDDD for a bit longer than the first few initial days. If eating this way can help produce higher insulin sensitivity, then perhaps it could be deduced that the body's ability to shed fat will be increased with time on JUDDD, and the speed with with it might work for you could increase as it increases your insulin sensitivity.
I haven't read the article yet, but I did hear about a study done on ketogenic diets (ketone producing diets) and its effects on liver and one ketone in particular having the same effect on the body as gotten by caloric restriction. In essense, a ketogenic diet has the same benefits a caloric restriction without hunger.
I heard it on Dana Carpendar's Blog Casts #17
Very interesting article! The couple looked good... But boy, was that guy thin... He was at MY goal weight!
Thanks for posting, Pat!
