TNT® gives you what you want most-superior on-game performance. Starting with TNT's thin precision jacket, we add internal fluting and a dead-soft lead core to ensure complete bullet disruption. We finish the forming with a long ogive and a small hollow point. This gives the ballistic coefficients needed for long shots. In fact, TNT's coefficients rival those of similar boat tail bullets.• Bullet Type : TNT Hollow Point

I'd just like to know what it is that kernel_task is responsible for. Also, what's an acceptable maximum RAM and CPU use for it?
It accumulates all the CPU time for input/output (i/o) processing delays and calculations as well as scheduling of processes and threads.
If you watch it after a reboot you will see it starts with minimal RAM and CPU needs and instead grows only when other programs run and need the system services.
To slim it down, shut off unneeded ports (WiFi, bluetooth, etc... ) as well as idle / unused programs. If things don't settle down, consider rebooting to ensure no task is stuck or leaking memory. If you have programs doing real work, they will cause the kernel to use both memory and processor time - just watch as you start things to see which other programs are causing this behavior. It's rarely an issue with the kernel - even with badly performing programs - that can't be solved by logging out and back in again. The kernel_task cleans up well and generally takes care to only use the resources needed by the workload.

In 2008, Giardina's group learned about a quickly spreading flock of sacred ibis. The handsome black-and-white birds with gently curved beaks likely escaped from zoos after Andrew. In the Glades, they feasted on food key to endangered native species.
So Giardina gathered $25,000 in grants for a team to attach radio bands on a few of the birds. Then they tracked the ibises to their roosting grounds. After months on airboats, the crew blasted the feathered pests using shotguns. The team killed around 70, and no new sightings have been reported in about six months. "They tend to roost together, so it was easy for us to find them and kill them," Giardina says.
The Burmese pythons are more difficult to find. They are well-camouflaged and don't hang out in groups. The problem received a huge publicity boost this summer after a pet python killed a 2-year-old girl outside Tampa, and Sen. Bill Nelson dangled a 16-foot-long snakeskin on the U.S. Senate floor, asking for eradication money. Gov. Charlie Crist pledged money for python bounty hunters.
But a python hunting team has killed fewer than a dozen snakes since it formed last month. The best python hunter in the state, a bearded South Florida Water Management District expert named Bob Hill, has nailed fewer than 40 this year. Scientists estimate the snakes number in the thousands. "You can't find them reliably to kill them," Hardin says. "I don't believe we'll ever be able to eradicate pythons."
Nile monitor lizards aren't nearly so widespread in the region — yet. They're omnivorous, voracious, and hardy. They thrive in a subtropical climate. And as of last summer, they've shown signs of nearing critical mass.
No one doubts how far they can spread. A colony was released in Cape Coral in the early '90s, and today more than 5,000 roam the canals and subdivisions there. They will likely never be exterminated on the Gulf Coast. On the Atlantic side of the state, there are fewer. Since last summer, Giardina and his group have caught and killed 13 in and around Homestead.
On a recent humid weekday, Giardina receives a phone call from one of his colleagues checking the traps. He assumes they caught a monitor lizard. It wasn't. In fact, they snared a black-and-white Colombian tegu, another huge reptile sold in pet shops around Florida. Giardina sighs at the news. "So I guess we've got tegus running wild out here too," he says. "You never know what's next in this state."

The only problem that I came across is the bags that are "specially made" for the food sealer cost a fortune! They aren't even made from recycled goods! I searched google to no avail on solving the problem, the closest I got was budget rolls $10 for a 8"x50' roll [33 square feet] and that is still outrageously high. I was perusing the plexiglass section when I saw painters plastic in 10'x50'x3.5mil rolls for $7 [500 square feet] so I picked up a roll [I splurged and got the recycled roll. The non recycled rolls are cheaper, but wheres the green in that?] .
I got home and made a bag using the sheeting and couldn't get it to vacuum. The problem was that the sheeting created its own seal too high up on the bag and wouldn't suck the air out of the lower part of the bag. A bit more googling and I found that the reason for this is that the "special" bags have air channels to allow the vacuum to suck all the air out.
I started trying to make my own vacuum bags by ironing the sheet over a window screen [didn't work] by using a tube to suck out the air and then sealing the corner [didn't work] and by attaching a straw to the bag and trying to seal it [didn't work] I was about to give up when I looked over at my hot glue gun and got the idea to make an air channel using hot glue.
The advantage of using hot glue is that it is non toxic, cheap [$3 for a 100 pack], and hot melt! I made a channel, made a bag, and tried it out. Shazam! It worked wonderfully! It worked so well that I decided to make an ible out of it!
Before I knew it I was vacuuming everything I could, marshmallows, bread, even a cassette tape [it was there, I had a bag, now I have a vacuumed cassette tape.]
Want to learn how? Of course you do, you read the whole intro didn't you?
I am concerned that the plastic you are proposing to use is not rated as food grade. It may contain chemicals that are harmful if left in contact with food fora long period of time. For non-food items this is a great idea.
Well, if you made me a cookie, in such bag... why cant you address it to me. im sure it would be fine when it arrived =]
anyways, thank you very much for this ible, and thank you for taking part in the schooling of all of us that are here to learn how to save a buck and make the most bang out of it.
Again. Thank you
I placed seeds (in this demonstration) in the cut up bag then slid two small strips of the "top ridge" portion that I cut off, into the bag (see picture) closed the vacuum sealer and wa la. works like a charm.
I don't know if all "Zip Lock" bags have this at top, but, I bought 50 bags for $1.29 and given that you only need an inch or so of the ridges then this could conceivably allow you to seal hundreds of bags for a $1.29
Thank you for the 'ible and for the suggestion about zip loc bags. I just sealed up some bags of coffee, a few bags of gummy bears and an egg. I just wanted to see if the egg would bust and it didn't!
Why is the cat in the fridge?
I am starting a kickstarter project called slice a roller, it will make cutting vacuum rolls into bags so much easier.
When I was young, recycled stuff was cheaper. I remember greyish paper and toilet paper that was cheaper than the new stuff coz it was recycled material. Nowadays however, recycling is a 'green statement' and of course the public has to pay for that :-)
I really doubt if the recycled plastic should be any more expensive, it is just because it is a fashion that shopkeepers will ask a higher price. I dare say it probably is all from the same factory, after every 100.000 rolls of 'non-recycled' they probably only change the label to 'recycled'
If i were you I would go for the non recycled cheaper stuff next time :-)
Some questions:
What is the reason for the lines of hot glue?
Also, are plastic sheeting/hot glue toxic? (Just wanted to ask cuz, you know, they're not really designed with food in mind.)
You have my 5 stars! :)
If you look closely at a store bought bag it has tiny ridges all the way along its length, the plastic sheet doesn't. [when you try to vacuum a bag without channels it can't get the air out because the two flat sides make an airtight seal under pressure] The hot glue provides a channel for the air to travel out of the bag, making a vacuum!
I have been vacuum sealing for a bit now and I haven't had any bad experiences using this method.
question...at this point, have you had any seal failures after time? Have you tested any of the seals over a longer time period, say a month or more?
Another method is to cut a one inch wide strip and run it from top to bottom of the bag, again leaving room at the top of the bag to make a second seal on the clear strip at the top. I found that this works just as well and I am using less screen in the project.
**** I tried using printer paper instead of three ring binder paper and found it to be to thick.
Good rule of thumb is if the plastic has a strong smell it's out-gassing and will flavor the food.

Can Watson Save IBM?
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- The last time IBM (IBM) faced an existential crisis in the 1990s, it turned to software and services to get out of the hole.
Now, facing the existential crisis of the cloud, it's trying to do the same thing with Watson, its supercomputer. Watson, IBM hopes, will generate the software and services revenue it needs to remain relevant in the cloud era.
The company plans to invest $1 billion in a new Watson unit. There is reason for optimism. That's because Watson isn't just another way to play Jeopardy. It's also another way to do cloud analytics.
Cloud analytics is the big software challenge of our time. Cloud analytics takes the huge fire hose of data created by the Internet and turns it into intelligence, into answers to questions that may not have been asked yet.Cloud analytics is the difference between the National Security Agency collecting all that data on what everyone is doing online and actually doing something about terrorism. It's the difference between reacting to what customers may be doing and being pro-active, getting things to them before they ask. The primary method for analyzing big data sets has been Hadoop, which was developed at Yahoo (YHOO), refined by Google (GOOG) and built through an open-source process. It's okay. If you ask Hadoop to analyze data along certain parameters, it will do that. But if you ask Hadoop a question in English that relates to a big data set, you won't get an answer back in English, or even in real-time. With Watson, IBM says, you will. IBM has already created vertical market applications for Watson in health care, in finance and in visualization. Now it wants to build applications in other areas and sell the results. It will sell systems designed to analyze clients' cloud data, it will sell results and it will sell services that lead to asking data questions Watson can answer. The most interesting bit is where IBM will do this. It has chosen an address near New York University in the heart of Manhattan for the unit which will employ 2,000 people. IBM moved its headquarters from Manhattan to suburban Armonk, N.Y., 50 years ago, in 1964. The move to near NYU is symbolic as well as practical. The center of economic activity is moving from the office park to the university campus, creating a new explosion of growth around research centers in cities large and small. IBM is on top of it. The question remains whether there is enough business in Watson, or in any form of cloud analytics, to make up for losses in cloud hardware and services that IBM is suffering as a result of Amazon (AMZN) dominating the cloud rental sector and Google dominating cloud presence. IBM had revenue of $104.5 billion in 2012, which was down from 2011's peak of $106.9 billion. For the first three quarters of 2013, it had revenue of $72 billion. It has to beat 2012's fourth quarter to even match 2012 totals when it reports a few weeks from now. That illustrates the size of the hole cloud has blown in IBM's income statement. The company spent most of the last decade moving operations closer to customers, reducing its U.S. headcount and increasing it in places such as India and China. That not only kept costs in line, but brought IBM to where the software business was. But location doesn't count for that much in cloud. A single server farm can serve a vast geography, and through ties to other server farms, capacity moves itself to where it's needed. IBM doesn't need engineers who can help companies answer questions so much as it needs salesmen who can help customers ask better questions. As the old enterprise business withers away, with server racks located inside customer offices, and moves toward larger cloud systems housed in shared facilities, IBM has to reinvent itself again and find a way to bring in more business from the new markets than it's losing in the old. Watson can help with that. A branded system in cloud analytics could become a $1 billion business in a few years. But IBM needs 100 Watsons to keep the doors open, and the enterprise pool may be draining faster than even Watson and cloud analytics can fill it. IBM is in a race against time, and its survival is at stake. Does Watson have a solution for that problem? At the time of publication, the author owned shares in Google and Yahoo.

A Day for Defense
Defensive stocks rose modestly Wednesday, as a two-week long rotation into the group continued.
Healthcare equipment shares advanced, with medical device makers Biomet (BMET), Baxter (BAX) and Medtronic (MDT) slightly higher.
Among healthcare providers, Oxford Health Plans (OHP) gained after the company reported a near 30% gain in fourth-quarter earnings.
The tobacco sector was also partially green, with British American Tobacco (BTI) adding 11 cents, or 0.4%, to $29.16."We are in a consolidation phase right now," said Richard Dickson, a technical analyst at Lowry's Research. "And so, you are seeing people move toward defensive areas." Drug stocks lifted, with Merck (MRK), Pfizer (PFE), and Johnson & Johnson (JNJ). Technology shares closed sharply lower, as investors fretted over Cisco's (CSCO) sales-growth prospects. The stock is up 88% in the past 12 months. Cisco trades at 34 times Thomson First Call's 2004 earnings estimates of 71 cents a share. Other tech names are more expensive: Yahoo! (YHOO) fetches 85 times estimates for 2004 of 53 cents a share. "We think the market is very toppy," said Peter Blatchford, a trader at Miller Tabak. "But money is coming into the market. With net positive inflows, it has to go somewhere." In recent days, investors have sought shelter in more reasonably priced defensive groups. Biomet fetches 30 times this year's earnings; British American Tobacco is valued at 12 times 2004 forecasts; Merck has a price-earnings-ratio of 16; and Johnson & Johnson has a PE of 18.

News Flashes!
The Northern Beaches Roadkill Prevention Committee and supporters, including Greens MLC, David Shoebridge, are holding a protest at 9.00 a.m. this Wednesday, 21 May, 2014 outside the Manly office of NSW Premier, MIKE BAIRD, against the proposed new Frenchs Forest hospital.
Our reasons are simple:
- We do not need a brand new hospital when Mona Vale Hospital could easily be upgraded to Level 5 at far less cost.
- We do not need 900 more traffic movements during peak hour at the junction of Warringah Road and the Wakehurst Parkway, where it already takes commuters up to 35 minutes to get through the gridlock.
- We do not need or want a privately run hospital replacing two public hospitals – Mona Vale and Manly.
- We do not support the destruction of irreplaceable bushland to provide the site for the new hospital.
- Five government agencies, ranging from those dealing with Environment and Heritage, to Transport and the Rural Fire Service have lodged submissions with the Planning Department indicating significant concerns with the project. We ask why those submissions have been ignored.
- There has been little or no noise assessment of the site; parts of it are in a bushfire zone and there are asbestos issues.
- There are insufficient protections for the students and learning environment at Forest High School which adjoins the site.
- Public submissions on the hospital were received by the Government in November last year, 91 percent of which opposed it.
Spokesperson for the protesters, Dr. Suzanne Daley, a practising Newport GP says: "We don't need another hospital. We have two functioning hospitals at either end of the Peninsula. Mona Vale could easily become a Level 5 hospital with some upgrading, which would be at considerable less cost than that proposed for the new hospital."
Shadow Health Minister, Dr. Andrew McDonald, says: "The experiment of a fully privatized public hospital has only been tried once in the history of NSW. That was the disastrous Port Macquarie privatization, which the auditor general referred to as the hospital that was paid for twice".
This ski season, please check pouches of all animals that you see lying by the side of the road, unless they are marked with a fluorescent cross.
Peep in a pouch. You could save an orphan's life!

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.

Pedagogy and Global Great Thinkers
For my undergraduate degree I had the privilege of studying in a "Great Books" program at Concordia University's Liberal Arts College in Montreal. This bachelor of arts degree in "Western Society and Culture" is one of a hundred Great Books curricula in North America, Europe and Asia. The Concordia program was modelled on the Great Books movement which began at Columbia University in New York in 1921 and which now constitutes that university's Core Curriculum.
Orpheus, opium and Robert Lepage
The Greek myth of Orpheus hints at the paradoxical relationship between creativity and anguish. Orpheus was the one mortal whose musical ability was as great as that of the gods. The renowned lyre player fell in love with the maiden Eurydice and the two were married. Shortly after the wedding, Eurydice was stung by a serpent and died; Orpheus, unwilling to accept her death, decided to descend into the underworld to rescue her. The gods were touched by the musician's plea and released her from Hades on the condition that he did not look at her face until the two had returned to the world of the living.

The most interesting mayor in North America is not Toronto's superego-averse Rob Ford, the conservative populist who has received much publicity from comedians across the world, but is instead the recently elected progressive populist Bill de Blasio -- the new mayor of New York City. De Blasio's campaign "One New York, Rising Together," was a refreshingly progressive one that did not emphasize crime, as did the slogans of New York's previous Republican mayors. De Blasio campaigned to support workers, teachers' unions, undocumented immigrants, welfare rights and the need for affordable housing, while criticizing the New York Police Department's unconstitutional use of stop-and-frisk tactics.

Raytheon BBN Technologies Awarded $16 Million In DoD Funding To Enhance Text Understanding
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Dec. 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Raytheon BBN Technologies has been awarded $16 million under the Deep Exploration and Filter of Text (DEFT) program, sponsored by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and the U.S. Air Force Research Laboratory. BBN Technologies is a wholly owned subsidiary of Raytheon Company (NYSE: RTN).
Government analysts collect and process huge amounts of data from a variety of sources to create and assess plans and to execute missions. Advances in speech and language technologies have provided them with robust tools for their tasks, but discovering information that is implied but not explicitly stated remains a challenge. The DEFT program aims to enhance currently available analytical tools by developing a deep natural language exploration and filtering capability to find operationally significant information and deliver relevant alerts to users.
"Much of the information that our analysts need is couched in ambiguous language. The DEFT program aims to strip away that ambiguity and also to make it easier to integrate new facts into our existing knowledge bases in a meaningful way," said Prem Natarajan, executive vice president of Speech, Language & Multimedia for Raytheon BBN Technologies.
Drawing on decades of experience in speech and language technologies, Raytheon BBN scientists will tackle two significant goals of the DEFT program: to develop new techniques to infer meaning, discover relationships, and detect anomalies in text; and to research and develop tools to integrate new, individual facts into existing large information stores. The enhanced understanding enabled by these capabilities will allow analysts and other users to effectively exploit not just the surface information in massive data archives, but also to discover the rich interconnections between disparate data elements and the tactically and strategically significant nuances.About RaytheonRaytheon Company, with 2011 sales of $25 billion and 71,000 employees worldwide, is a technology and innovation leader specializing in defense, homeland security and other government markets throughout the world. With a history of innovation spanning 90 years, Raytheon provides state-of-the-art electronics, mission systems integration and other capabilities in the areas of sensing; effects; and command, control, communications and intelligence systems, as well as a broad range of mission support services. Raytheon is headquartered in Waltham, Mass. For more about Raytheon, visit us at www.raytheon.com and follow us on Twitter @raytheon.

Help me let go of my need for an A....
- 0Mar 30, '05 by klone, BSN, RNI'm very upset. I did really poorly on my last test (79.6). This brings my cumulative grade to an 86.8. We need 89.5 or above to get an A in the class. The problem is that there are only two more tests and the final left. I need to get at least 93% on both of the tests and at least 90% on the final to get an A in the class. I'm VERY angry at myself for how poorly I did. I thought I studied enough, but obviously I didn't.
I need to either hear that I can do it, that it's still within my reach, or I need to hear that I need to let go and accept that a B is a perfectly acceptable grade. But I don't want to screw up my GPA.
- 0Mar 30, '05 by DecafMomQuote from kloneI say let go and accept that a B is a perfectly acceptable grade! Remember that nursing school questions are not just fact-based, so you could study all day and still not be able to answer all the questions right. You're doing a great job, don't let this get to you, just do the best you can. I got my first B last semester, but I was actually happy to see the B as there were only two of us that got Bs in the class. We have to get a 93 to get an A! People keep telling me C=RN, so keep that in mind. Just keep on keeping on and remember that summer is just around the corner!I'm very upset. I did really poorly on my last test (79.6). This brings my cumulative grade to an 86.8. We need 89.5 or above to get an A in the class. The problem is that there are only two more tests and the final left.

I need to either hear that I can do it, that it's still within my reach, or I need to hear that I need to let go and accept that a B is a perfectly acceptable grade. But I don't want to screw up my GPA.
- 0Mar 30, '05 by RainDreamerI've been in this situation before, beating myself up because a test grade brought down my average for the class, therefore I needed to get exceptionally high grades on the last exams. It's tough. I realized during first year that I wouldn't be able to get As in all my classes. An A is 93% and higher, it's really tough to get that. I got to the point where I just accepted it. Getting a B isn't bad at all!!
Getting a 93 on both the tests, and a 90 on the final isn't impossible. I needed to get a 92 on my final exam that I took just 2 days ago. I thought that was pretty much out of the question. I went in and took the exam, did the best I could. Felt like I did ok on it, but highly doubted I made a 92. Later that afternoon I looked on Blackboard and saw that I made a 94!! So yes, it can be done. It'll be hard, but it's definitely not impossible! Do the best you can, study hard ... I know you will. Then go and do the best you can on those exams, that's all you can do. If you get a B then you'll know you did the best you could.
This was hard for me too 1st year, it was hard for a lot of my classmates too. I don't know of anyone that can maintain a 4.0 all throughout the nursing classes.... I'm sure there are people that do, and kudos to them. But for the majority of us, we get a B here and there, and that's perfectly ok
- 0Mar 30, '05 by grinnurseThis will be a good indicator of how you should perform on the remainder of the tests. If you have made 93 or above the whole semester my educated guess would be that you have the possibility to pull off an A.
If not, I would say you are looking at a B. I would love to have your average this semester.............. I have resigned myself to a B this semester especially in lecture. Clinical has never been a problem for me and have gotten all A's. At this point, I am so burned out :angryfire on school that as long as I pass and can sit for the boards, I will beLast edit by grinnurse on Mar 30, '05
- 0Mar 30, '05 by Nikki730Klone, try not to beat yourself up too badly over your grade. Try to see the big picture. If your dream is to go on to get a master's degree or whatever, one B (or a few of them) shouldn't hurt your chances too much. Also, remember that you have been working hard for more than 6 months now (since August?) and it's natural to feel fatigue or burn-out.
Sometimes grades have to give a little bit when life intervenes. Time I take to replace a burned-out headlight on my car takes away from time I need to spend studying, but it's also important for my safety and so I don't get pulled over by a cop. KWIM? You can only put off certain things, or delegate out so many responsibilities before you are not treating yourself or others very well.
Right now I'm struggling to pass. It's so hard, esp. when just to make it into nursing school requires at least a 3.77 where I am. I had a 4.0, but not anymore. I made straight B's, and looks like I will make about 4-5 hours worth of C's this semester.
Chin up! You might still be able to pull off the test grades you need. You could try to see it as a fun challenge (a testing of yourself), esp. since if you "fail" you still are still sitting pretty grade wise (a B is good!)
- 0Mar 31, '05 by twinmommy+2"what do you call a nursing student who graduates last in her class...
... A nurse"
Its not all about the grades here, but the skills that you take with you after you graduate. I know where you're coming from too, I want to make it back above that 3.5 myself but I know in the end that making it through the NCLEX is the hurtle I have to look towards, not the ending GPA.
Keep your head up!
- 0Mar 31, '05 by WSU_Ally_RNAs a nurse, none of my patients will care if i got a B or a C in a class. Being a sucessful nurse includes speaking in a kind voice to the mom who just got diagnosed with cancer, hugging the child who doesnt want their mom to go home and leave them at the hospital, and talking with a 95 year old woman about what you think heaven is really like. Just remember, nursing students, your patients won't know that you got a B or C but they will know that you are kind, compassionate, caring, and the person who had the ability to brighten their darkest and lonliest moments of life.
...and this is why i want to do...what i want to do...
A few of my friends and I totally believe this... Nursing is not about the grades you get, it's the care you give. As long as you are totally competent when you walk into clinical and give compassionate care, you will be a great nurse! A B is not a bad grade, neiter is a C. They have no indication of how great a nurse you are. My friend barely get's B's each quarter, usually C's, but in clinical she is great! I would let her take care of me in a heartbeat! Good luck the rest of the quarter!
- 0Mar 31, '05 by mercyteapotA B means good. As far as I'm concerned, good is good. Just try your best, and be thankful you aren't struggling to pass, as some who want to be a nurse just as you do, are.
- 0Mar 31, '05 by hypnotic_nurseContinue to study for the A, but be satisfied if a B is what you wind up with.

"These moist and delicious muffins are sure to be a hit at your next ladies brunch or tea!"
Serving Size: 1 (55 g)
Servings Per Recipe: 10
"I love this recipe, made it three times so far. They do rise nicely actually (I've posted a pic), and I do feel for every poster who got flat or sunken tops. Whoever braves baking deserves stellar results, for baking is not for the faint of heart.
Here's what I think:
I don't know how essential the eggs' temperature is (frankly, I never take the time to pre-warm the eggs; by the time they're mixed with the fat and sugar or beaten fluffy they're not going to be that cold anyway). But:
A. When the recipe says in steps 6, 7 and 9 "With the mixer on low speed", "Beat just until smooth" etc, etc., keep in mind that muffin batter needs to be mixed very, very little, so the dry ingredients are just moist. To me that means no mixer for mixing, but a wooden spoon, and "mixing" means lifting up and down with the spoon through the batter about 5 times, not more (5 turns for the dry ingredients, 5 for the yoghurt, etc) until the batter is barely mixed. Beat it more than that, and the wheat gluten will do something funny (resulting in dense muffins), the air from the beaten egg whites (that's supposed to make the muffins fluffy) will go wasted, etc.
B. Try mixing the baking powder with lemon juice before adding it to the batter. It will foam a lot, and that's exactly what it's supposed to do.
As one of my friends says, baking is a completely different beast compared to regular cooking. It's a bunch of chemical reactions, so you need to be careful with the amounts, the mixing, and temperatures. Nothing like that in soup or steak. :-) Here's to great, fluffy muffins!"
"The reason they were flat is probably due to the eggs being cold (straight from the fridge). When baking, eggs should be used at room temperature. You can either take them out 20-30 minutes before use, or put them in a bowl of warm water while you are doing your prep work.
I made them and they turned out very well, tasty too!"
"I didn't have any trouble with this recipe not rising but I made some alterations to the recipe based on other muffin recipes I've cooked. Firstly, I did not separate the eggs and go to the trouble of mixing the whites and what not because I've never had to bother with such nonsense before to get fluffy muffins. I just mixed the eggs, whole, when the recipe says to add just yolks. 2)I increased the amount of lemon juice to 3 tablespoons instead of the 2 that the recipe calls for. This is just because I like extra lemon flavor but find adding too much zest just makes things bitter. In the end the muffins were light, fluffy and delicious. Love that these aren't overly sweet. I've written this recipe down for future use.... With my little changes"
"Great tasting muffin (I substituted 1/2 t. pure lemon extract for the lemon zest). My muffins also did not rise as much as I had hoped, however I had left over batter and I poured it into a small bread pan and it rose and looked just beautiful! I also used muffin liners, because I made these for my students as an end of the quarter treat- however you are better off just greasing the pan rather than using muffin liners.

I think that a stand mixer vs. a hand held mixer makes a difference in beating in the yolks and creating the peaks for the egg whites. I will try again- not as pretty as I like- but they are very flavorful! My baking power does expire this month so maybe this is another thing to look at (baking powder and baking soda freshness)"
"These fell. I added 1/2 tsp lemon extract to help with flavor as I didn't have fresh lemons. Way to sweet. These tasted like cake and gave you a hairy tongue from the sugar like they were cake as well. I also cut the amount of poppy seeds by half as it would have been too much. No one here liked them tat much, but they did eat them they all said too sweet for a muffin, and texture was too cake like."
"They where phenomenal."
"I made this recipe into 'gluten-free' but subsituting a gluten-free baking mix for the flour as I was making them for a friend. She commented that they were the best lemon poppy seed muffins she had ever tasted (homemade or by a bakery or restaurant) due to how flavourful and light they were. This recipe is definitely a keeper for me!"
"So good and light. Came out great!"
"Amazing! That's all I have to say. I made these for my cousins and they where gone in 3 minutes and there was only 3 of them! They are super moist and fluffy and they have a perfect amount of sweetness it's not overdone. I'm definitely making these muffins again."
"I added a T of water because the batter seemed a hair dry (maybe it wasn't, but it just seemed that way). Next time, I would instead add a T of lemon juice, just to make it a bit more lemony (I didn't use zest, since it is hard/expensive to find organic lemons in my area). Other than that, it was fantabulous. I used the cheapest, most "sticky" muffin tin imaginable, and they still slid out, no problem. They rose beautifully. The texture was light, it had the right ratio of poppy seeds, it wasn't too sweet, everything was wonderful. I really enjoyed making these as well, but then, I really enjoy baking. I will definitely be making them again. (but not before I have a drug test--hahaha)"
"This recipe turned out perfect, definitely a keeper. Very light and soft, just the right amount of everything and flavourful. I made my own buttermilk (Emeril L. Recipe). Try it, you won't be disappointed."
"Wonderful muffins! I did the plain yogurt option and they were very moist. The only changes I made to the recipe were to substitute 1/2 tsp lemon extract for half of the vanilla extract and put in less sugar (about 1/2 cup). They were just the right amount of sweetness for us. They had nice lemon flavor but as a lemon lover, I want more..... so I will put more lemon zest in next time and use only lemon extract. I did let the eggs come to room temperature and my muffins rose nicely."
"These have good real lemony flavour and they are nice and moist. I really wanted to love these but they just didnt quite meet my expectations. They didnt rise like I expected and I would have preferred a more yellow muffin."
"Fantastic. I made these in a pinch when I didn't have a box of lemon poppy seed muffin mix around. I used muffin tin liners & regular milk since I didn't have yogurt or butter milk on hand. I was not able to get my whites to soft peaks & I was running out of time to try, so they went into the mix rather foamy & that was all. They came out perfectly domed. I softened the butter a bit in the micro, but didn't melt. I separated the eggs early on, so they did warm a bit before they went into the mixture. I agree that there was very little mixing that happened toward the end of recipe prep & it was by hand. I don't bake cakes or muffins from scratch, but this was easy, if not a little time consuming. Will do again... everyone loved."
"My Father-in-law loves lemon poppyseed muffins and I only bake from scratch so I looked around and discovered this recipe. It was perfect. It's more time consuming than most muffin recipes but the resulting muffins are worth it."
"Wow, I love this. Dare I say this is better then my grandma's?! I followed the recipe exactly, I used the yogurt option, and they turned out amazing. I do think this should be called cupcakes not muffins! I also made a icing with yogurt, icing sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice, to top them with. They where so good! Thank you. MAKE THEM!"
"This recipe was absolutely amazing! I had no problem getting "muffin tops". I used plain yogurt and mixed by hand. My whole family thought they were fantastic!"
"I switched the flour to rice flour, used lemon yogurt instead of plain, left out the zest, added 1/2 cup of milk and a tsp of xanthan gum, and voila! Yummy gluten free lemon poppy seed muffins. :) Thanks for a great, easily converted recipe!"
"i made these this morning and was so happy with them. They rose beautifully and smelled delicious. A keeper for sure."
"These tasted good, but the recipe was fussy and the muffins turned out flat. I don't think I will be making these again."

In a recent essay in the New York Review of Books, Michael Massing articulates a point made so often about the Web that it's nearly catechismal. Blogs, he says, have torn down the power structure of old media. "Decentralization and democratization" are the law of the land, offering "a podium to Americans of all ages and backgrounds to contribute." This is a notion that bloggers and web gurus have been touting for years. In his 2006 book, An Army of Davids, for example, "Instapundit" blogger Glenn Reynolds argued that "markets and technology" empowered "ordinary people to beat big media." And this June, internet sage Clay Shirky assured an audience at a TED event that the old model, where "professionals broadcast messages to amateurs," is "slipping away."
But is this really true? Among some of the biggest bloggers, this notion is increasingly seen as suspect. In early July, Laura McKenna, a widely respected and longtime blogger, argued on her site, 11D, that blogging has perceptibly changed over the six years she's been at it. Many of blogging's heavy hitters, she observed, have ended up "absorbed into some other professional enterprise." Meanwhile, newer or lesser-known bloggers aren't getting the kind of links and attention they used to, which means that "good stuff" is no longer "bubbling to the top." Her post prompted a couple of the medium's most legendary, best-established hands to react: Matthew Yglesias (formerly of The Atlantic, now of ThinkProgress), confirmed that blogging has indeed become "institutionalized," and Ezra Klein (formerly of The American Prospect, now of The Washington Post) concurred, "The place has professionalized." Almost everyone weighing in agreed that blogging has become more corporate, more ossified, and increasingly indistinguishable from the mainstream media. Even Glenn Reynolds had a slight change of heart, admitting in a June interview that the David-and-Goliath dynamic is eroding as blogs have become "more big-media-ish." All this has led Matthew Hindman, author of The Myth of Digital Democracy, to declare that "The era when political comment on the Web is dominated by solo bloggers writing for free is gone."
He may be right. As the medium has become more popular, money has flowed in. And while no one would deny that blogging has lowered the barriers to self-publication by average citizens, the free-wheeling fraternal spirit of blogging has become increasingly subject to market disciplines. As a result, as Web critic Nicholas Carr told me, blogging has evolved to become "a lot more like a traditional mass medium."
The data would seem to back this up. First, a clear, stable, class at the top has emerged. An examination of the Technorati rankings for recent years reveals that turnover among the top 50 blogs has become increasingly rare. Even as the total number of blogs has swelled to 133 million from 27 million in 2006, the top 50 have remained relatively static. On March 15, 2006, 30 blogs out of the top 50 were new to the list, never having appeared at the top in any previous year; last month, that number was down to 18. Even the new entrants are no mom-and-pop shops: National Review, Entertainment Weekly and Politico are among the owners, and one of the few independent upstarts, Seeking Alpha, is backed by venture capital. The bulk of the list consists of familiar names, many of whom were among the first to emerge on the Web—from Andrew Sullivan, now of the Atlantic, to the Daily Kos and Boing Boing.
Of the top 50 blogs, 21 are owned by such familiar names as CNN, the New York Times, ABC, and AOL. And many blogs that began as solo operations are developing into full-fledged publications. Josh Marshall's newsgathering war horse, the Talking Points Memo, has plans to expand its staff of 11 to a full 60. (If another quixotic Josh Marshall came along, Talking Points Memo would be among the media titans he would have to dethrone.) TechCrunch, founded by Michael Arrington in 2005, now has a staff of more than 20. There are only a handful of self-employed solo writers left among the top fifty, and these include standout talents such as Michelle Malkin, Perez Hilton, and Seth Godin.

text: Does anyone else have an issue with cardio? I've never been able to do cardio for more than 10-15 minutes at a time, whether it be on the bike, treadmill, elliptical.. I just couldn't do it. Strength training has always been the easy part for me. Tonight for the first time, I did 35 minutes on the treadmill. I was messing around on my phone for the first 5 minutes. They passed so quickly. I put my phone down and the next 2 minutes seemed like forever! So I started watching my feet. 3 minutes passed. I looked at the time again. At this point I'm thinking "can I make 15?" I pick up my phone again.. Nothing new, no status updates, no texts.. Crickets! Ugh! I'm now at the 12 minute mark. PAUSE! I jump off real quick, grab a magazine and hop back on. Begin flipping thru.. Oh look, 35 minutes!! My conclusion: don't watch the clock!! I texted a pic of my time to my trainer, his response: tomorrow go for 40!

Use vegetable oil when removing a lable off a bottle. Once the oil has penetrated the label, rub with sponge or rag & it will come off easily. Then wash the oil off.
|Wed, 05-15-2013 - 9:16pm
I have never tried the oil for stick labels.. But I use peanut butter and that is one thing that works for me.. Besides it taste great..

Thanks for the tip, I hate it when lables stick! Baking soda is my go to cleaner in the kitchen, cheap and works well.

December 22, 2014
MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Some people might be surprised that rookie Russell Wilson was named the Seattle Seahawks' starting quarterback. His college coach isn't one of them.
Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema (BEE'-leh-mah) says he's been telling anybody who would listen that Wilson would end up winning the starting job.
Bielema said he exchanged text messages with Wilson to congratulate him.
Wilson led the Badgers to a Big Ten title and a Rose Bowl berth last season after quitting professional baseball and transferring to Wisconsin. Wilson wasn't regarded as a top pro prospect going into the draft, mainly because of his 5-11 size.

Court Requires VisionChina And Vision Best To Transfer $60M For Acquisition From Gobi And Oak
NEW YORK, June 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- The New York State Supreme Court has granted a motion that requires VisionChina Media, Inc. (Nasdaq: VISN) and its subsidiary, Vision Best Ltd., to transfer $60 million of assets into New York State so that those assets can be attached by a New York sheriff or, with the consent of Oak Investment Partners and Gobi Partners, into an escrow account elsewhere controlled by a New York sheriff.
The motion, which was granted by the Hon. Charles E. Ramos on June 28, 2012, enforces and implements the judge's June 15, 2012 decision that confirmed Oak and Gobi's motions to attach $60 million of VisionChina and Vision Best's assets, regardless of where those assets were located. The requests for attachment were filed to secure VisionChina and Vision Best's final payments for Digital Media Group (DMG), a high-profile digital media company that they acquired from Gobi and Oak in 2010.
Oak and Gobi plan to pursue additional damages in connection with VisionChina's breach of its agreements to complete the purchase of DMG. Oak and Gobi believe that the total damages as a result of VisionChina's conduct exceed $90 million.
VisionChina acquired DMG from the former shareholders of DMG in January 2010, pursuant to a Merger Agreement that required VisionChina to make an initial payment of $100 million in cash and stock and two deferred payments of $30 million each over the next two years. DMG operated China's leading digital media network inside subway systems consisting of over 34,000 digital screens in 32 subway, high-speed train lines and bus shelters.On November 3, 2011, the Court dismissed VisionChina's principal claims and counterclaims for fraud, unjust enrichment, declaratory relief, and breach of contract against Gobi and Oak. The case, Shareholder Representative Services, LLC, et al. v. VisionChina Media Inc., et al, was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, index # 650526/2011. There is also a related case, VisionChina Media Inc., et al., v. Shareholder Representative Services, LLC, et al., index # 652390/2010.
