I had about 20 - 1 gallon bags filled with tomatoes in my freezer from two summers ago when my garden went wild. Last week my mom & I decided to use those tomatoes to make Katie's Roasted Tomato Garlic Soup (recipe posted many times in the forum).
Can I just say, OMG! We didn't even bother to can the soup as we knew it would be eaten too quickly. |

I process over 50 pints of the Tomato Garlic soup every summer. I use it in chili, BBQ sauce, stuffed peppers and just plain tomato soup with a grilled cheese sandwich. I'm glad you had luck with it, using frozen tomatoes. It is one of my must have canned items. |
Good stuff, huh? It's one of my "Must Can" items too! Enjoy! And thanks again to Katie for sharing! Deanna |

Can someone post her recipe please. I love garlic and don't think I could get too much in a soup. :) I searched for her recipe after reading a post about it and never did find the recipe. |
gardenpondr, here it is. Found it buried in the "Greatest Hits Recipes for Leesa" thread. Looking forward to trying it myself! Roasted Tomato Garlic Soup 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil -- (or 1 Tbsp. dried) |

Thank you Joanna!!! |
It's also good for a pizza sauce. |
Question: my canner holds 7 quart jars. If this recipe makes 1 1/2 to 2 quarts and I want to process 7, do I just quadruple the recipe? Or can I make each batch and refrigerate until I have enough to process? A question that's been roaming around in my head lately! |
- Posted by jimnginger 9 (My Page) on Thu, Jun 18, 09 at 5:14
Double, triple, quadruple the recipe is great. If you have the cookie sheets to roast the tomatoes, and you are sure you would like this recipe, make enough for a full load in your caner. It costs just as much to process 7 quarts as it does 2 quarts. If doing pint jars, I always try to plan on doing a double layer in my caner. I would do a short load IF you want to know what something might taste like and you are not sure you would like it. Hope this helps - Jim in So. Calif. |

I do triple batches all the time. While subsequent batches are roasting, I'm blending, adding broth and spices and heating the first batch. My canner holds 10 pint jars. |

It also freezes very nicely. I did not want to can just two jars last year (and I didn't know how well I would like it) so I froze it. This year it is on my 'make more of' list. Delicious! As already said above, great as soup, spaghetti sauce, etc, etc. Happy Canning! |

I preferred the flavor of the soup after having been frozen than after canning. I think the flavor of the basil was negatively affected by the canning (at least, to my tastes). However, it could've just been a difference in the flavor of the tomatoes from one year to the next. Regardless, I think this year I will can the soup minus the basil, freeze some chopped basil in oil, and stir in a little bit of the frozen basil when reheating. Just another option! |
Basil once cooked does seem to change its taste. They still add a leaf or two to commmercial canned tomatoes. |
I am going to try this recipe today. I plan on freezing it since I don't have a pressure cooker. But I am curious... is this recipe even safe for canning? My experience is limited (2nd year just using recipes with a bwb), so please don't get offended. But there are three things that seem questionable to me. If I am wrong, I would love to know why so I can learn. First, I would question the use of the chicken broth, which is pretty fatty. There is also the use of oil on the veggies before roasting. Would that make a difference? Aren't fats a big no no with canning? Second, aren't onions, carrots and garlic low acid foods? And therefore wouldn't you need to add additional acid? Lastly, the directions are vague in terms of quantities of each ingredient. Shouldn't the measurements be more precise such as cups or weights? Thanks guys!! P.S. and Dave - aren't you proud of me?? I added to a thread instead of starting a new one :-) |

LOL yeah we live and learn don't we CCaggiano? :) With this forum there is only so many pages they allow and when that certain amount of pages are posted then others fall off into never never land never to be seen again. I just WISH there could be some sticky posts that would stay. I think it's like this with all of the garden web threads though. |
Yes, the more new threads posted, the more old ones get dumped. If it were 5 years ago, they would have only been around for maybe a year at best as the forums were much smaller in total size and contained smaller amounts of posts in each thread. Using the search feature and posting again within the older threads and same topics will bring them back up to page one again. This can help to save some from eventual dropping off forever. |
Thanks for the responses - I do get what you are saying about threads falling off. But what about my question about the soup?? :-) |
You concerns are calid for doing things in BWB but this is a pressure canned recipe and many things that aren't allowed with BWB processing are quite safe with pressure canning. First, I would question the use of the chicken broth, which is pretty fatty. There is also the use of oil on the veggies before roasting. Would that make a difference? Aren't fats a big no no with canning? The chicken broth is defatted just as if one would make stock following the approved recipe for it. Oil is allowed in small amounts in several tested recipes when they will be pressure canned. In this case the oil is removed with the skins. Second, aren't onions, carrots and garlic low acid foods? And therefore wouldn't you need to add additional acid? Pressure canned recipes seldom contain added acids. It is the processing that kills botulism in low acid pressure canned recipes, not added acid. Lastly, the directions are vague in terms of quantities of each ingredient. Shouldn't the measurements be more precise such as cups or weights? You'll find many of the older canning recipes like this one are given in amounts rather than in cups or weights. Many are only just now being converted to actual measurements. I believe that a conversion was posted here somewhere on this particular one at one time but since you are freezing it it wouldn't make much difference. Still there are conversion charts available on the web that can convert the numbered amounts to average # cups for you if you wish. Dave PS: yes, thanks! ;) |
Thanks - that cleared up a a lot!! |
I made the soup for the first time last night. I assume it's OK that I used canned chicken stock that I made earlier this year. From the recipe and 3 equivalent cans of chicken stock (2 pints), I got 4 pints of soup. I wanted to see how good it was first, from all the forums. My question is: After using the "motor boat" (Emeril calls it that) or the stick blender, it still seemed slushy. I have a BRAUN stick blender that has an adjustable speed. I strained it, then blended it separately. It was still a bit slushy w. small tomato peels and little pieces of onion, garlic, etc. The tomato skins were the most bothersome. Is that they way it's supposed to be? Do you peel the tomatoes before you roast them? Or after? I did add the slush back in. I just had too much of it to discard. Also, how much canning depth do you leave? I left 1 inch of head space as that seems what BALL BLUE BOOK recommends for soups. We newbie need details. It does taste like something you would get from a gourmet restuarant! Very good! Thanks for your answers!! June Lynn |
- Posted by joy_unspeakable 8 (My Page) on Wed, Jul 22, 09 at 11:23
June Lynn - I peeled my tomatoes after roasting. The skins just slipped right off (and as said above, I think that helps to remove some of the oil). Mine was 'slushy' too - or I'd say mine was a little chunky - lots of bits of carrots and onions. But I froze mine, so was no concerned with getting it smooth. I suppose you could blend in a blender or puree if you wanted a smoother consistency. Sorry, can't help with the PC questions as I have only froze mine (which worked really well). ~ Tracy |
My first batch came out pretty good but it was just a little too garlicky for me. There can be quite a bit of size difference between heads of garlic so keep that in mind when making this. I roasted mine in a baking dish - not a cookie sheet. There was a good inch of water in the dish when the tomatoes were done. I shudder to think what my oven would have looked like if I used a cookie sheet!! Also, I ended up adding that water to the pot to dilute it and offset the garlicky taste. I froze mine so I can't help with the pressure canning questions. As far as the "slushy-ness" of the mix, I found that the consistency of my batch was similar to a can of condensed soup. I added some cream when re-heating and it was a perfect bowl of cream of garlicky tomato soup. I think it is stated above that if you are going to add cream, do it before you are going to use it - not before pressure canning. |
Made some tonight and this is pretty darn good. I baked it on a jelly roll pan, not watery, I guess that depends on how watery your toms are. After cooking I pureed it in my blender that can puree a brick I was able to do it all at once. I used 14 oz can of broth, heated then added puree. It did come out "slushy" Just change the name to tomato bisque is all lol. I didnt have basil. I added salt and pepper to taste and a 1/4 tsp of dry ground chipolte. Warms it up and gives it a little smokey zest. Will be great when the snow is falling but to do that I will have to make more because my wife just ate it all. cripes! |
bump to save Katie C's recipe |

When you all pressure can soups or anything else, how do you keep your other jars while one canner is pressure canning? Do you just wait to fill the second batch of jars or do you go ahead and fill all the jars and just let them sit out while the others are pressure canning. I have a soup recipe and it makes 23 quarts so that would be 4 canners and as you know that would have some of the jars sitting out for over 4 hours on the cabinet. Wondering how to go about doing this batch? Thank you!!! |
Do you just wait to fill the second batch of jars Exactly. You never fill the jars until they are ready to go into the canner. When ready to fill the second set of jars, reheat the soup in the pot to boiling and then fill those jars and put them in the canner. Dave |

Thanx Dave! |
I hope this thread isn't too old to respond to... I need some help here. I made this tomato soup, and followed the directions. When I pressure canned it, I lost about 3" of soup from each quart! Not having canned tomato soup before, I'm not sure if this is something anyone else has run into. I left the specified 1" of head space, so I don't know why this happened. Maybe the soup was too thick? At any rate, my question is whether or not it's safe to eat. The jars have good seals, and the only thing that appears to be wrong is that the level isn't up to the top any longer. I'd hate to waste all the ingredients and time, but I also don't want have to eat tomato soup for the next 6 weeks either... Any ideas?? |
- Posted by readinglady z8 OR (My Page) on Mon, Feb 25, 13 at 14:30
If the jars have a good seal then there's no problem (except of course it's frustrating to look at them lined up on the shelf, seeing the reduction). If the water in the canner was not clear and had tomato residue, then you experienced siphoning from the jars. The chart at the link provides several possible causes. See if you can identify the reason in your own case. Come back if you have additional questions or search the forums. There are lots of threads on this topic. Carol |

I would like to make diced roasted tomatoes with onions and garlic. Could I remove the carrots, chicken stock and herbs? Do I need to add more onion and garlic to make up for the carrots? I would like to pack them with out any added liquid other than the natural liquids/juice from the tomatoes, is that possible? Thanks! |
hello, dave, you mentioned above (july '09) that some oil is removed with the skins. the posted recipe omits that point. also it says to place tomatoes cut side up, that means the flesh is brushed with oil, not the skins. i was thinking of brushing just the other veggies with oil, or covering with parchment paper, to lower the amount of oil. usually i leave the skins in...any worries?? anyway, i'm glad to find a recipe with so much garlic ! and am i glad i now have a presto16 qt. PC ! |
Posted by joannaw 6 (My Page) on Tue, Jun 16, 09 at 7:34 ................................. For weighted gauge canners use 10 lbs. pressure at 0-1000 ft., and 15 lbs. over 1000 ft. %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% With weight system , the internal pressure does not change substantially, to merit using different weights at different altitude. It is negligible. That is the beauty of weight system. Example: |
Seysonn - the need to adjust weights for various altitudes is common knowledge and has always been that way. One need only look at most any pressure canning recipe. The "authority" is USDA and NCHFP and Ball and any pressure canner manual. They all list such adjustments in detail, if not attached to the particular recipe then in a table in the book or on the site. The weight requirements for this particular recipe are no different than those for many other recipes that are pressure canned. Dave |
- Posted by sharonann1 (My Page) on Mon, Sep 1, 14 at 13:39
seysonn's question reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of pressure canning. The goal of pressure canning is to achieve a specific temperature, not a specific pressure, within the canner for a specific time period (which has been tested for the specific food being canned) In pressure canning, the goal temperature is higher than 212 F, the boiling point of water at sea level, in order to kill botulinum spores among other baddies. The boiling point of water at higher altitude is already reduced due to the decreased atmospheric pressure. Thus, the water in the canner will boil at a lower temperature at elevation, and though the canner is full of steam and pressurized to a specific psi (or close to that psi of a canner at sea level), the temperature inside the canner will be lower at elevation if the same canning wieght is used at altitude and at sea level. As it is temperature, not a given pressure, that has been tested to ensure canning safety, the canner at elevation must achieve the same internal temperature for the same time period as the canner at sea level for a given recipe to be safe. The only way to to raise the temperature of the steam inside the canner at elevation is to increase the pressure inside the canner to compensate for the decreased atmospheric pressure at altitude. Thus, the need to have the larger weights at altitude. In this way, the temperature inside a canner at sea level and at altitude will be equivalent, enabling the use of the same recipes and time requirements at sea level and at elevation. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Understanding boiling point at altitude
The pressure adjustment only required when one uses a dial gauge of diaphragm type where the reading is affected by the atmospheric pressure. With the weight system the effect on the weight sitting on the vent hole and ultimatelt the internal pressure is negligible . The body of the vessel itself, being rigid body, is not affected by the changes in atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure is only some additional force acting on top of the weight and it is proportional to the cross sectional area of the vent hole. And that being in the magnitude of about 0.01 to 0.02 square inches, makes negligible difference. I am contacting USDA on clarification. I will let you know of their answer. |
this is fascinating ! please do pass on USDA's response. and i thought i didn't like physics ( is this physics ?) |

With the weight system the effect on the weight sitting on the vent hole and ultimatelt the internal pressure is negligible . The body of the vessel itself, being rigid body, is not affected by the changes in atmospheric pressure. You are missing the whole point. Have you looked at any of the pressure canning charts that detail the differences for altitude between gauge canners and weighted canners? It really is quite simple. Do you understand the difference between gauge canners and weighted canners? I have to ask as you have often said you don't do much pressure canning. Gauge canners allow for a whole range of various pressures to be used - anything from 0 to 15 lbs. That is why a range of useable pressures is given for many foods based on altitude. Weight canners only allow for 5-10-or 15 lbs. That is how the weights are made. there are no 12 lb, 13, or 14 lb weights. So when using a weighed canner and you live above 1000' (2000' with some foods) feet you have to use 15 lb. The instructions for this recipe are typical. There is no need to turn it into some convoluted complex discussion about physics. Dave |
Dave, I am strictly talking about the pressure canner/cooker with weight system, not gauge. I know it well that diaphragm type gauges will show higher numbers at high altitudes, because the gauge is affected by the atmospheric pressure. Pattypan, yes this is physics. |
We went through this 11 months ago... When the USDA (NCHFP? Who did you contact?) comes back and says the same thing sharonann and I did about boiling point, temperature, weights and pressure, will you believe them? |

This started out as a small issue but the effects keep propogating. The issue arises when I place a part as "Standard" from the Content Center. Later, I want the file stored locallyand I do RMB>"Replace from Content Center" and replace the part as a custom part. For some reason, whenever I do this, the browser bar essentially continues to treat the part as a CC part as far as its icon and re-ordering restrictions are concerned. If you've seen this issue before and know the solution you can skip the rest of this post and make me really happy by sharing your solution. Otherwise, here's a detailed explanation of the effects:
1. If the part was, for example, a pipe fitting, the icon for the part in the browser bar remains as the little pipe fitting icon rather than converting to a standard part icon. Not really a big deal, except it causes confusion as to which parts truly are standard CC parts and which are local custom parts.
2. Slightly worse of an issue, becasue these are treated as CC parts in the browser, I can't re-order them. At this point in my workflow this is quite annoying because I don't have many patterns yet, so the time is now to do any organization I want to, but I can't.
3. And here's the big issue. When I ground these "undercover" non-CC parts, the icon does not update to show that they're grounded. I also was willing to live with that at first, but then I kept running into issues with my adaptive parts and other constraints not solving when I KNEW they should, and after several minutes of investigation I discovered that one or several of these undercover parts are secretly grounded. This means that whenever my constraints do not solve, I have to go through each of them in the browser bar and check if they're grounded. I have about 20 of them.
Thanks for reading this lengthy post, if anyone has any suggestions they'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Solved! Go to Solution.
Solved! by cwhetten. See the answer in context.
Ah, I see. The only other workaround I have heard of is talked about here:
I haven't actually tried this, so I can't speak to how well it works, but it might get you what you need without breaking your constraints.

This is a frustrating bug, but fortunately has a simple workaround.
After you place the component from the content center, copy and paste it again and the pasted one should revert to the normal icon and not suffer from the restrictions you mentioned. Then you can delete the first one and you are good to go.

Please click "Accept as Solution" if this response answers your question.
That's great to know, thanks for the tip! Unfortunately usually the reason I use the "Replace" command in the first place is that I already have my part constrained as I want it. Copying and pasting would cause me to lose all those. I've tried re-replacing the part as a normal part, and I've tried re-replacing from CC and then re-re-replacing as a normal part again and neither works. The browser bar seems forever stuck thinking that instance of the part is a CC part. If I could find a way to get the normal-part behavior AND keep my part constrained that would be fantastic.

The steps provided in message 4 of that thread worked, thanks a ton! My mates are still in place AND my fittings behave like normal parts so I can re-order/re-rank them in the assembly, and see when they're grounded. Also, my Tube and Pipe runs continued to operate normally even after this once I re-loaded the add-in. Thanks very much for the solution!

A cardiac nurse and her boyfriend have been charged with selling cocaine out of their Montgomery home.
The arrests came after Aurora and Montgomery police executed a search warrant on the home nurse Leslie Farwell, 35, shares with Phillip Hill, the father of her children, on the 1300 block of Royal Drive.
At around 10:09 p.m. Aug. 6, officers from both Montgomery and Aurora set up a perimeter outside the home and found Hill, 35, sitting inside a mini-van in the driveway.
He was taken into custody and searched. He had $2,089 cash in his pocket, Aurora police said.
After taking Hill into custody, officers headed to the front door. No one inside the home answered, so police rammed their way in. Two children, ages 12 and 13, were found in the living room. Hill's stepfather was found in the home's basement.
According to recently received police reports, officers found a large rock of cocaine sitting out in the open on the kitchen counter. Near the rock was a scale, plastic bags, and other drug paraphernalia. Police said the rock weighed 53 grams.
Inside a kitchen cabinet, police also located a small bag of marijuana.
Police continued their search of the home, and found a jacket allegedly belonging to Farwell in an office. In the jacket's pocket, officers found 84 grams of cocaine.
More than $3,900 in cash was also seized from the home, police said.
Police went to the hospital where Farwell works and took her into custody. She denied knowing anything about the drugs, police said.
Both she and Hill were charged with felony possession of cocaine, and felony manufacturing/delivering cocaine. Hill was also charged with possession of marijuana, police said.
The children were released to Farwell's father, police said.

Something is in the soil over in that bed. It was pink last year. I have many in that bed and they are all going blue or purple. The rest of my beds they all go to or stay pink. I have started to amend the soil on some of them to turn them blue. |

So what is the effective arc of this weapon, exactly? It's hard to tell from just videos of course, but it seemed to me that there was no "narrow" to be had based on the reactions of the "crowd". Never minding horizontal arc, how about the vertical? I saw some second story apartments in the video; here's to hoping no one's cat or dog got brain fried because of this.

It has been a while since I posted this and things have changed a lot in HTPC Land. So I am going to break it down into categories:
[The "I Just Want a Cheap Android Stick That Allows Me to Have Kodi On a TV" Category]
There is a lot of competition in this space, but for this kind of stuff I like popular devices and I vote for the FireTV Stick. It has pretty much the exact amount of hardware Kodi likes with a gig of RAM and a dual core processor. You put a skin like Bello on there and you will impress people.
It can play a lot of files and is pretty much a HTPC in a stick. Pretty cool, and I like that you have other options like Netflix and Amazon for content. Here is how to get Kodi on there:
The downside compared to other sticks is a lack of a MicroSD slot with only 8GB of internal storage, so this is better as a network device. But it's remote is awesome, and is a much better option than other sticks unless you prefer to use a mobile device.
For a stick that plays nice with MicroSD or a USB drive there are a tons of options. I recommend something with a Mali 450 GPU as it has a great decoder built in. I have an S805 based one that I use as my vacation device.
[The "I Want One Box to Do It All Including Netflix and Amazon, and Just Want The File To Play in My Livingroom" Category]
Run, don't walk, to the Amazon FireTV. Sideload Kodi and add it to your home screen:
The benefits of the box over the stick is the extra power (which is nice for better skins) plus ethernet!
Note I am less of a fan of ALL the other ARM boxes because:
1. A ton of people are buying these FireTVs so they should have good community support for a while, unlike random ARM box
2. The Hulu and Netflix experience at ten feet on these is FAR beyond anything else running Android. If you don't care about Netflix and Hulu you are in the next category.
Note: Do not get a FireTV if you care about LiveTv or HD audio. If you care about those things, buy a smart Blu Ray player or a Roku for the Netflix and Hulu and look to the next category. Also to be honest it might have trouble playing a pile of straight Blu Ray rips, as an interlaced VC1 file makes it wishes it was dead. Most blus aren't interlaced or VC1 thank goodness, and you can always fix it in Handbrake. But if you are just dumping blus into mkvs via Makemkv then again, next category. Also if you have over 1000 or so movies I would look at the next category.
[The "I Just Want a Small and Quiet Kodi Appliance That Can Play All My Local Media" Category]
Get a Celeron Chromebox and put either Openelec or XBMCbuntu onto it. Seriously, the celeron Chromebox is quiet and has enough CPU power to blow through every non-4k 10 bit file I have. It is the perfect Kodi appliance, especially after all that work Intel did for Helix. Even Live TV- the high water mark- works great. It has great GPU support in the current version, and can run every plugin or skin which is HUGE. This is the new Acer Revo. THE box. I am partial to the Asus one.
If you need to play 4K stuff look at getting an i3 or i7 model, as the celeron one slightly lacks the CPU power needed.
[The "I Want The BEST Kodi Experience Possible. Period." Category]
This is still dominated by Nvidia+Linux (or Windows 7+AMD) in my opinion. But the difference between the best and a Chromebox is slight. You will need to build a custom rig, preferably with a GT 630 V2 GPU (aka the best HTPC GPU ever) or better to even make it worthwhile. That GPU plays all my h264 2160p files, and runs Aeon Nox at 4k perfectly at 60fps so I can recommend it also for older system you want to make into Kodi machines. Here is a good starting point for the quest of building a HTPC:
Honestly only freak shows like me who care that their interlaced VC1 files are played perfectly should be building a box for Kodi if you are starting from scratch. Or gamers. Like one of my primary systems is this overclocked i5 rig so it can launch Wii games out of Kodi. If you aren't doing that or something like that then don't build a box. Really. Just buy a Chromebox.
[The "I Care More About Playing 3D ISOs Perfectly Than Anything Else" Category]
Some people have niche needs, like playing ISOs instead of mkvs, and the VidOn Box is the only device that can do that and 3D frame packing properly. I personally wouldn't want one of these boxes, many of its limitations are simply unacceptable to me, but I guess if I had small children who made me go all in on the dying format that is 3D this would be my box. Here is a list of limitations so you can decide for yourself:
For 99% of people a Chromebox or Intel NUC is better for Kodi usage than any ARM box. Android simply has too many limitations, and every ARM box or stick lacks the single core performance you ideally want in a high end media box.
As far as hard drives go, I think any hard drive less than 3TB is a waste. When you figure out the slot costs and compare that to the small price difference between 1, 1.5, 2 and 3TB drives it is obvious that 3TB drives the only value worth pursuing. High Def data takes up a LOT of space, even single 3TB drives are nothing.
Never buy more than one of the same HD from a vendor at one time!!! If you do you might be buying part of the same batch and if its a faulty batch no RAID in the world can help you. Mix and match drives vendors when building an array to pull from many separate batches.
In the issue of local storage vs a NAS, I ALWAYS think a NAS-type device is better. HTPCs + NAS combo machines are a cheaper option at first, but the combined heat of 1080p playing GPUs and the working HDs means that either the box will be loud with fans, or you will be killing hard drives (unless they are all WD Greens). Benefits of pure NASes include being able to use NAS specific OSes with special features (more on that later), the ability to easily have multiple clients, and the ability for your NAS to do other things for you in some cases.
If you must put storage space inside your HTPC, the only drives I recommend are WD Green drives. They are the only drives on the market that stay cool enough that I feel safe recommending them in HTPCs. WD Green drives (and all 2TB Green drives on the market) are fast enough to host full 3D Blu Ray 1080p rips, so save your power by going green. Try to limit it to about three or so though.
Which brings me to NASes. There are two paths on this: build or buy. I am a build it guy. If you are a buy it guy look at Synology.
As far as building a NAS goes there are many different methods. Many people use older hardware they have laying around, some build from scratch. The four most common custom NAS OS options are Linux software RAID 5/6 (Ubuntu), FreeNAS (ZFS), Windows Home Server, and Unraid. The latter two are pay for software, the first two are free. Each has its own advantages and disadvantages. If you want to learn more about these different options in detail read this thread.
My favorite option, and the only one I use, is Unraid. You have to pay money for this software, but I think its very much worth it because its the only NAS software on the market which is pretty much designed for mediaservers. I don't have any affiliation with Limetech, but their software Unraid is strongly supported by some in the XBMC community because it has high compatibility with all OSes and all types of media.
Advantages of Unraid
-Allows you to mix and match drives of different sizes and makes into a single "User Share" of pooled storage (one big folder across drives)
-Allows you to pull the drives of the array out and read the data on them on another computer
-Allows drives to spin down if they are not being accessed, saving power and possible prolonging their life
-Unraid allows for the growing of the array in size by replacing one drive at a time with full use of that drive after addition and no data loss
-Unraid is easy to install, runs off a pen drive to save sata ports for data, and is configured by and easy to use web interface
-Unraid costs money for real versions
-Unraid's write speeds are pretty low without a cache drive
-Unraid's read speeds are slightly lower than the drives by themselves, but still more than fast enough for media
-Unraid is a dedicated NAS OS, meaning that it can't easily do other server stuff for you
In the end Unraid gives you a media server that is grown periodically as storage is needed, one cheapest disk available at a time, yet it can easily stream mutliple HD movies to multiple (I have tested up to 5) clients on your network.
As far as what hard drives to buy, I have tried almost all consumer sub 6TB drives and all I can say is buy Hitachis. Seriously. The WD Black is the best Unraid parity drive out there, but for the data drives buy Hitachis.
Advice on Kodi Boxes, NASes, and Hard Drives- FireTVs, Chromeboxes, ARM Sticks, etc.

eskro Wrote:(A). in GROUP 2, when u wrote, Yep. Every ION based Nettop can play 1080p, even single core models (in Linux). Quote:(B). Also, what about the ATV1 & ATV2 ?? I plan to add them as a special case. ATV1's only real use is for those who have component HD TVs. I can say from experience that the lack of robust decoding for Broadcoms combined with the low amount of RAM makes any ION system better than any ATV1. ATV2's have interesting limitations (720p output) and the require network storage. Their addition to the XBMC community is a big deal, but they certainly go in a class below ION systems. |

For starting places for sources to be used in written reports, additional readings, or for the final project, Wilmeth, Variety Entertainment And Outdoor Amusements and my earlier book, American And English Popular Entertainment: A Guide To Information Sources (Gale Research, 1980) are useful. Both are out of print or stock, so copies will be available in Becker on reserve. They are also available in Reference in the Rock.
More recent sources are frequently cited in the syllabus. The Cambridge Guide To American Theatre, a useful reference work to own, includes many useful entries and up-to-date book sources. Far more extensive and up-to-date lists can be found in "Popular Entertainment: A Checklist of Representative Books Published Primarily in the United States Since 1977.

Habitat correlates of the Eurasian otter Lutra lutra recolonizing Central Poland

- … show all 3 hide
The increase in Eurasian otter Lutra lutra populations in their natural range and recolonization processes are recently observed in several European countries. We address the process of otter recolonization and habitat utilization in Central Poland over 14 years. Field surveys in 1998 and 2007 documented increase in occurrence of the species. The frequency of positive sites denoted 15 % in 1993, 38 % in 1998, and 89 % in 2007. Otter occurrence at study sites was positively affected by river width while negatively affected by presence of buildings at the site and river regulation. During the most intensive colonization process in the 1990s, the habitat preferences of the otter did not change. However, the sites inhabited by otters after 1998 were characterized by lower river width and tree cover and were more often located on regulated river sections, suggesting change in habitat tolerance during expansion. The otter abundance in transformed habitats is a result of increasing population numbers and the necessity to inhabit suboptimal sections of watercourses. Thus, it seems that presence–absence data for otter populations cannot be considered a reliable indicator of habitat quality, being depended of the population density.

"Delicious... I made these for a picnic a few months ago. I made 2 batches. One following this recipe and one batch marinating the chicken and bacon with a marinade that was in the fridge. It was also good (not as good as the recipe) but a nice variety."
"Our friends were over for the evening and we both have 1 year old girls. What else do toddlers want- chicken nuggests. I whiped us these for everyone along with baked gorment poatoes. Everyone said it was delish! I will be making these again. What else can I do with Panko?"
"ADD HONEY!!! By adding honey these were the best wings that I have ever had. I made them during a party and my cousin added honey for the second batch and our friends wanted more of the honey rather than without. These are resturant quality!"
"Perfect cookies! I could not find the swirl chips- which I love, so I used 1/2 milk chocolate and 1/2 white chocolate. These cookies did not last long around my family. I will be making these again."
"Awesome.... My friends ate this pie faster then I have seen anyone eat pie before. To keep things simple, I made the pie and sprinkled crushed peanuts and chocolate chips on top. I thought it would be better then snickers on top. I made 1 pie and since I had a package of 6 mini pies, I also used them. It would have been adorable for the kids b..."

It's already the third week of January. For many pig farmers, this means farrowing season and for some lucky show kids it is time for the National Western Stock Show! Held in Denver, Colorado National Western is one of the largest and most competitive shows of the year, so where did this great show start?
October has just ended, and this means another Pork Month is ending as well. So why is Pork Month so important? It's a great way to celebrate pork as well as share the producer story with consumers. Less than 2% of the United State's population is involved in agriculture, so there are quite a few people who are unaware of what happens on the farm. Social media is becoming more and more popular each day, so why not combine social media and farm stories?
"Mom! Mom!! Take Tessa and my picture with us and our trophies!" One of these girls won the Grand Champion Market Hog at the 2014 Tuscarawas County Fair. The other was Reserve Grand Champion. Can you tell who is who? I can't. The county program holds a decent sized contest with 300+ head of market hogs that showed that day. Regardless of the high competition for these youngsters, these two were both just thrilled (and SO adorable) to stand beside her friend at the end of the day.
...The Ohio State University Livestock Judging Team won the Keystone International Livestock Exposition (KILE) Collegiate Livestock Judging contest on Oct. 4, at the Pennsylvania Farm Show Complex and Exposition Center in Harrisburg, Penn. The win is the third in a row for OSU at KILE, which is a first for the school.
Or 17 for that matter? Well, if your names are Jared & Lincoln Hart, you are getting ready to host your first online sale on your own. Yes, that's right: two teenagers are running their own online sale, footing the bill for all of the expenses, and doing all of the marketing themselves. The Hart boys, from Pikeville, Tennessee have been involved in the livestock industry their whole, lives but five years ago, they started raising showpigs to show and sell to other families. While the boys have grown up showing Hereford cattle across the country, they both really enjoy showing pigs and have the banners to prove it!
This past spring, the Showpig.com All-Star Team was created to allow young people the opportunity to learn more about leadership, community service, and swine. In June, twenty-seven swine enthusiasts were selected to attend our four day camp in Romney, West Virginia. We watched students from across the nation come together to learn, brainstorm and problem solve about the swine industry. It reminded us how grateful we are to be blessed with a next generation who were taught to work hard to achieve any task that lies ahead.
As we left camp, we realized how much a team of agriculture students who are passionate and dedicated could achieve. As a result, we have created a blog where we offer the chance for the voices of these amazing young people to be heard. We could not be more excited to present this new opportunity that will allow you to read about their dreams and goals for the industry. You'll have the chance to meet some of the past All-Star Team Members and the Interns who will be planning next year's camp. We will post their opinions about challenges facing our industry today, as well as offer opportunities for them to ask questions and continue to learn more about the industry we all love. Our goal is to make this a place where youth have the chance to be heard, and I think you will quickly discover how impressive our future leaders of the industry truly are! If you would like to stay connected with the blog, go to Facebook and like the Showpig.com All-Star Team's page. Think you may know a student who would be interested in writing or reading the articles? Encourage them to follow the blog to see opportunities for their opinions to be heard! If you have any questions, feel free to call Kelsie Hinds at (330)-440-4014. Once again, we could not be more excited to host this blog and hope you will take advantage of it!
...The Ohio Pork Council is now accepting applications for Manager of Showpig Programs.
Responsibilities for this new, part-time, salaried position include working closely with the Ohio Pork Council's Showpig Committee, developing and executing a complete spring/summer points circuit for junior swine exhibitors in Ohio, building relationships with potential sponsors and engaging individuals and organizations in various levels of support, and providing additional opportunities for leadership and personal development to youth engaged in exhibiting swine.
In August of 2012, with the farm truck loaded down, Mom and I rumbled the dully into Columbus, Ohio for my freshman move-in to The Ohio State University. I was not a stranger to Columbus thanks to the Ohio State Fairgrounds/Expo Center being located in this city. Regardless, I was still full of jitters when my feet hit the asphalt on campus. I could not see then, but I had just subjected myself to my biggest life change by taking my first steps of my collegiate experience. My name is Kaitlyn, and I am a Senior at The Ohio State University with a major in Agribusiness and Applied Economics, and a minor focus in Meat Science. I absolutely love agriculture. It is what built my past, pushes me forward in this present, and what my drive is for toward the future. I currently share a campus with students who go to class in jeans and boots, have Friday night front-porch-debates about agricultural issues, and share an equal disgust for the under-educated who want to force our food supply to be shifted out of the United States. Simply put, it is a comfort to be surrounded by people who share my passions and interests.
The 2014 Performance Barrow Contest has been cancelled for 2014. Unfortunately, the presence of PEDv in and surrounding Ohio has resulted in a greater risk associated with central weighing and farm to farm movement.
The Ohio State University Livestock Judging Team began the 2014 season at the National Western Stock Show (NWSS) in Denver, Colorado. On January 16-17, 2014, OSU participated in the livestock contest with 12 classes and eight sets of oral reasons, and the carload contest with six carloads of cattle and one set of 10 questions to answer. The NWSS is an annual show held in Denver, Colorado, featuring more than 15,000 head of livestock.
Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea Virus (PEDV) has spread to more than 20 states so far on its way across the country. However, efforts to track and contain the disease are definitely helped by producers talking with their veterinarians and their farm neighbors about any change in PEDV status and efforts to prevent the virus' spread.
The Ohio State University have announced the dates for the 2014 Junior Swine Day. The program will include showmanship preparation, swine health and nutrition, PQA Certification, animal and carcass evaluation, and much more.
2013 competition results will be posted as competitions are completed. Click on the title to download the results.* If no link is available, competition results are not yet published.
A new system pre-entry follow-up system is designed to speed up your check in process at the Ohio State Fair day of arrival and replace our previous years card entry system. These Follow Up procedures are ONLY for Junior Fair Purebred Gilts of all Breeds, Open Class Purebred Boars and Gilts of all Breeds and Crossbred Boars. This procedure DOES NOT APPLY to the Junior or Open Barrow Show Entries.
Ohio State University Extension is offering a Show Pig Symposium on Saturday, August 24 at the Der Dutchman in Plain City, Ohio.
The Ohio State Livestock Judging Team placed third at their last competition of the season to All East Livestock Evaluation Contest.
In addition to placing third overall, the team ranked third in beef, second in swine, third in sheep for the 3-day competition.
The Noah Morris Memorial Scholarship is awarded annually to honor the brief but rewarding life of Noah Morris. Noah was tragically killed in an automobile accident near his home on July 28, 2012. Applications are due June 10, 2013.
Great educational opportunities in late May and June to learn more about the latest in swine health and management.

FORD MOTOR COMPANY +17% (excluding Volvo)
Ford slowed down a bit in December with a 4 percent increase that trailed the market overall. 2010 was nonetheless an impressive year for Detroit's never-bankrupt car company, as it picked up share and regained the number two spot it lost to Toyota in 2008.
Ford +22%
If the F-series has a good year, Ford has a good year, and in 2010 the F-series had a good year. But there were other factors, including the Fusion (which topped 200,000 units).
F-series +28%, more than half a million sold, easily retaining its #1 spot
Fusion +21%, best Ford car sales performance since the '04 Taurus
Edge +34%
Taurus +51%
Transit Connect +210%, but still very small volume
Expedition +18%
Flex -12%, and that's before the in-house competition from the Explorer
Ranger +0%
Mercury +1%
Mercury's long-anticipated death sentence was finally handed down in 2010. No winners here.
Lincoln +4%
MKT +188%, although still fewer sales than the Navigator
MKX, MKZ, Navigator +2%

When not hosting the 10th largest adult hockey league in the United States, The Gardens Ice House opens its three full-size rinks and one mini rink for public skating sessions seven days a week. Upon arrival, revelers visit the rental desk to select hockey or figure skates, or one of each in an attempt to perfect the elusive salchow-wall-check combo. A kindly staff of zamboni jockeys keep the spacious, glass-lined rinks slick and mirroresque. After skating up an appetite, speedsters can grab a bite to eat start a conversation with a coffee machine at The Gardens' Ice Breaker Cafe.
Music seems to be a perpetual source of energy at Hot Skates Roller Skating Center. During public skate times, you might find participants wheeling around the wooden rink to the tunes of Radio Disney and the Top 40 charts. Up to 500 skaters can take to the rink at any given time, which often turns things into a rolling party. On special nights, themes take over, giving visitors the chance to skate to an all-night Michael Jackson tribute or gospel tunes on first Mondays.
In addition to playing fun music and serving up pizza at the cafe, staffers also teach skating lessons. Hot Skates Roller Skating Center also houses an arcade with more than 20 games, including redemption machines that reward gamers with tickets and the occasional "I like you just the way you are" in a robot voice.
At the Columbia Association, visitors find not only a place to work out, swim, or enjoy the great outdoors, but a place to connect with the local community and get to know their neighbors. Families take in live music by the lakefront during summer festivals, or glide across the ice at the public rink. Meanwhile, aspiring athletes build muscle, flexibility, and form with practice at indoor and outdoor tennis courts, or regular trips to the high-tech Columbia Gym. Columbia Association also helps its members maintain a healthy lifestyle with a wide variety of facilities, including nearby golf courses, 23 swimming pools, and even an attached horse center, where humans can learn to ride and horses can get in shape for swimsuit season.
Wheels screech to a halt for photo ops in front of Lanham Skating Center's focal point: a mural of a red carpet illuminated by blazing flashbulbs. Skaters carry their celebrity strut into the music-filled rink, where they zoom to their hearts' content wearing skates they rented or stole from a '50s-era waitress. They can also star in Learn to Skate classes or birthday parties in a private room stocked with ice cream and soda. Visitors consume similar noshes at the snack bar before returning to rolling.
Maryland's premier ice skating and hockey facility! The cool place to chill with friends and family. Under one roof we have two NHL size rinks, snack bar, pro shop, video arcade, and lots of fun. We offer public skateing, group lessons for youth and adults, hockey instruction and leagues, birthday parties and private rental
With a rink defined by bright, citrus-colored walls and carnival-inspired artwork, Temple Hills Skating Palace isn?t shy about showing off its many forms of onsite amusement. The center?s main attraction is the glossy skating-rink floor, where guests can sharpen their skills during public skate or spend time with peers in specialized skating sessions for teens or adults. Most nights, the resident DJs soundtrack the skating experience with hip-hop and R & B jams, though they?ve also been know to spin gospel, top 40, and classic oldies tracks for special occasions?including the time that Billy finally asked Suzie to share a couples skate even though she was way out of his league as a fourth-grade honor student who also skipped kindergarten.
Temple Hills Skating Palace also offers more than just skating. Outside the bounds of the rink, the onsite arcade lights up the space with driving-simulation games, classic joystick units, and free-throw-inspired Pop-A-Shot machines. The more guests play, the more tickets and prizes they can earn; the more prizes that they win, the more likely they are to celebrate with a quick bite at the snack bar or a quick phone call to the friends who doubted their Whac-A-Mole prowess.

CROSS COUNTRY BOYS' PREP JOHN HARDIN INVITATIONAL ELIZABETHTOWN — Results from Saturday's 6-team, 49-runner race at Freeman Lake Park: 1. John Hardin (34) 2. John Egan &n
Rain falls across the region on Tuesday morning. Photos and audio of the sights and sounds of rain.
By COL. RICK SCHWARTZ Guest columnist I was a sideline observer to a remarkable event that occurred Tuesday night at North Hardin High School.
By CHUCK JONES firstname.lastname@example.com HODGENVILLE — If offense sells tickets, there shouldn't have been an empty seat Friday night at LaRue County's Hawk Field. Central Hardin and LaRue County combined for more than 90 points and 900 yards in an offensive showdown.
You only get out of it what you put into it. This old saying is applied to nearly everything – groups you join, studies you undertake, hobbies. And if you are anything like me, it is sometimes irritating to hear. But that old cliche, over the years, has proven itself to be true. Intended results require planning and effort.
So it is with travel. Hobos used to ride the rails, kids hitchhiked their way across country and savvy students "did Europe on $10 a day." Sadly, those days are gone.
By JOSH CLAYWELL email@example.com ELIZABETHTOWN — A mile into Saturday's John Hardin Cross Country Invitational, John Egan knew his chances of catching Andrew Stewart were slim. The odds turned to none at the two-mile mark at Freeman Lake Park. A North Hardin High School junior, Stewart pulled out to a 36-second lead over Egan and won the 48-run

Family scheduler
Organize your family members' hectic lives with one program.
Family Runner offers all the amenities of a traditional calendar, but it's tailored specifically to help parents and kids stay on track.
This program will look familiar to anyone with experience in calendaring systems like Microsoft's Outlook, although the overall look here is less professional in design. A large month-view calendar dominates the left side of the screen, and a list of that day's events are shown chronologically on the right side. Below are important phone numbers and contacts, and the top of the screen showcases all the command icons for entering new data. While Family Runner's plain, mostly black and white interface isn't much to look at, the color-coded To-Do list really pops out.
The program features a flexible way of entering data that makes it better for family use than traditional calendars. Here, users can assign responsibility for events to various parents and compare each one's schedule so nobody is left without a ride after soccer practice. In addition, users can assign priorities to events so that the most important things don't fall through the cracks.
You'll get prompted to register the program, but otherwise you're able to fully test Family Runner. It may not have the sleekest design, but we liked its family-oriented approach.
