Dension ice-Link for iPod mini-review
"The Dension Ice-Link for iPod sets out to link your ipod to your car head unit, providing control over the iPod either from the steering wheel buttons/stalk or the head unit itself, and, of course, the iPOD sound plays through the vehicles speakers.
The unit consists of a silver metallic box, slighlty larger than a box of matches, a cable to connect into your head units CD changer socket and an encapsulated PCB that connects the silver convertor box to the iPod and provides iPod charging. [click 'Read more']
To function the unit has to perform 2 tasks: convert the iPod's analogue sound to a digital format that will be recognised as a CD and convert the button presses at the head unit/stalk into pulses that the iPod will recognise and act upon.
My unit is fitted to a Renault with a OEM head unit incorprating SatNav. It took approximately 15 minutes to fit and does everything it claims.
Using the unit gives the user control over Next track, Previous track, volume, FF and FR. When the radio is selected the iPod turns off and when it is selected again, by selecting CD, it turns on and resumes from the last play position. Turning the vehicle off also turns the iPod off.
Overall the unit performs very well with no discernable impact on sound quality and makes driving and iPoding a breeze. Build quality is excellent and customer service has been great. At around

It's unfortunate that it requires cables into both the headphone jack and dock connector (for juice). I can only assume that the dock connector does _not_ allow remote control of the ipod. It would seem an oversight by Apple to have not included that capability in the dock connector.

You need to see what the future holds - say no more!

it doesn't require cables into the dock connector, it requires cables into the old G2/G1 firewire port. While you could use your firewire-to-30pin cable that came with your ipod, it would only provide juice, not a line out or ability to control playback.
Instead, it looks like the ice link uses the iPod remote line for control of volume and playback and for audio. So, you could use the connection without powering your iPod if desired.
Perhaps a newer model is forthcoming that will use the dock wire to do all of the above functions. But without an iTunes-like library management system included in the adapter, I don't think it's possible to manipulate and play the iPod library through the dock connection. For now, this seems like a good solution if you would like to use car controls for your iPod. (especially if you have steering wheel controls or if you don't have a dashboard mount for your 'pod)
The Belkin auto kit provides charge for the iPod and a single cord into it, but leaves you with the necessity of controling the music via the ipod controls, which could be dangerous. At the least, don't try to make yourself an OTG playlist while navigating traffic.

I already have mine, I ordered it from www.ihavetohave.it
It is absolutely fantastic, it's what I always wanted since I bought my first 5GB iPod. I paid the extra to have Carphone Warehouse install it as I didn't want to mess around with the car-stereo in my VW Golf.
I can't rave about this thing enough :)
Posted by Sighmansea on November 17, 2003 at 3:01 PM (CST)
here's a problem i see…future compatibility. They have different versions for the 3rd Gen and 2nd Gen ipods.
A kit that just adds aux capability is compatible with *any* device with a line out. I have a 2nd gen but will probably get the newest version a year from now (4th gen by then?) With this product, I'd have to get a new system with each ipod upgrade.
Posted by Huggies on November 17, 2003 at 3:52 PM (CST)
The problem I can see with the Ice-Link is that the sound you get is through the Phono-Out meaning that if you have a sub-woofer and you play your music LOUD, you will hear distortion at a much lower volume than if it was Line-Out.
Phono-out is for head-phones.
When Dension make a Line-out Ice-Link, I'll buy one immediately.
Posted by Sambo on November 17, 2003 at 5:26 PM (CST)
before I heard about the ice link I was going to have a dock mounted in my 2002 BMW325CI in the rear ashtray get the blitzsafe rca kit and use the remote for my 40gb ipod to control while driving. Why cant ice link use dock connector for line out and juce ans have a separate remote port cable for the steering wheel. I use my remote to change tracks when ipos is in the dock at home.
Posted by jj on November 17, 2003 at 6:37 PM (CST)
Good point jj…there's no reason why you can't use a dock to get line out to the Ice-Link.
OK I'm placing my order.
Posted by Sambo on November 17, 2003 at 10:05 PM (CST)
but if we use the dock line out will the steering wheel controls for volume and track work?
Posted by jjfiore on November 18, 2003 at 8:59 AM (CST)
I'm dying for one. However, I have a 2002 BMW (which has DSP) so I'm out of luck. From their FAQ:
"DSP converter is available for additional charge to the price of ICE-Link. We will be adding this option to our online order soon."
Hoping this option appears sooner rather than later!
Posted by Nicholas Howard in Los Angeles, CA on November 18, 2003 at 12:45 PM (CST)
I emailed apple a few days ago to see if they would give me any information on the docking connector, I also specifically asked if the remote commands can be used through the dock connector. They told me about the non disclosure act etc, but they also said:
"Yes the remote commands are available through the bottom connector"
So it seams that it is possible for the Ice-Link to use just the docking connector, this would allow you to have line out quality audio.
Posted by Angus on November 18, 2003 at 2:54 PM (CST)
Be aware that ice>Link:iPod includes circuitry to improve the sound quality of the headphone audio output making it comparable to that from the dock connector. Especially good news for owners of Classic iPods who are also supported on the Dension ice>Link:iPod platform.
Posted by Lee Harris on November 18, 2003 at 3:04 PM (CST)
I have a question about this adapter. When this adapter is used and one increases the volume on the car headunit what volume is changed ? The iPods, the headunits or both ? I can see that it would be quite convinient to have fast forward and next/ previous track capability from my steering wheel controls but I don't get the volume control.
Posted by MarcW on November 18, 2003 at 9:29 PM (CST)
It's the head unit volume that increases/decreases and mutes.
It operates the iPOD just as if it were a multichanger - pauses for traffic announcements, turns off with ignition or when radio is selected.
It's great now. If they implement menu control too (here's hoping) it'll be a peach.
Posted by Ashley Scott on November 18, 2003 at 9:35 PM (CST)
Just had mine installed in my Rover 75. Works a real treat and I'm really pleased with it. I can even use the steering wheel controls for volume and track changing.
Posted by Pob on November 21, 2003 at 2:49 PM (CST)
I've heard that for people most concerned with the quest for sound (also usually not too concerned with cost), the ice-link seems to be the best option… not to mention the device-button convenience… I saw a BMW z4 forum where ipod users can control the ipod via their steering-wheel audio control buttons! see: http://www.z4um.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=3429#3429
Request to ipodlounge admins:
1) Could this review, or an official one be posted in the main review section? Or at least a link to it from the iTrip & Dr. Bott FM transmitter review?
2) If not, could a list of competing products be mentioned in the form of an editor's addendum to the official reviews of these other car audio device?
I was interested in ipod audio in cars, and came to ipodlounge as the resource, but did not find out about the ice-link here. . . sometimes in reviews here, the information is not easily linked to that of other competing devices… only after i browsed away from ipodlounge did I discover the icelink.
It would be wonderful if an ipodlounge admin/editor had the ability to tag on some editor's notes to the end of reviews, even bare lists of competing devices & links to various types of reviews within your own website. . . Ideally this could become editorial policy or a guideline for reviewers. Thanks :)

See the "status quo"; see the "status quo"—run [for office].
1) Of the 112 offices up for election in Niagara County, 63 are unopposed in the 2011 General Election. For the voter, this means: In 56% of elections you'll have no choice.
2) Of the 63 unopposed offices, 59 are endorsed "R,C,I"—Republican, Conservative and Independence Parties. That's a suspect 94% agreement, in a county where each Party professes a unique set of core values.
3) In 6 of 15 (40%) communities ALL candidates are running unopposed: Hartland, Town of Lockport, Porter, Royalton, Somerset, Wilson—and, all are R,C,I endorsed.
To me, it's probable that heartfelt Conservative and Independence voters—voters that believe in voting their party line—are being (unwittingly) used to support a Republican "status quo". How else do you explain the fact that these two Minor Parties endorsed the same 59 (unopposed) candidates that the Republicans endorsed?
To be "R,C,I endorsed" is too common, in Niagara County, to be anything but a political fix. To break this (unnatural) alliance—for the sake of (true) representative government—"We the People" need to STOP! (unquestioningly) giving our vote to "The Party"; giving it in stead, per knowledge and conscience, to the most worthy of candidates—regardless of party stripe. And where there is but one (unworthy) candidate, exercise your right to do a "write-in"—even if it's but a symbolic gesture of protest. With today's "paper ballot", write-ins are simple.
Running unopposed is not a crime (in principle), but for 59 candidates to be running "R,C,I unopposed" is! All Parties should be putting forth candidates according to their core values—that the electorate might have choice, at the ballot. Does not "DEMOCRACY" demand this?
What follows is a complete list of unopposed candidates, for the November 2011 General Election. Locate your candidate(s) knowing you may have to do a "write-in".

On November 8th, I'd like to encourage you to vote, only, for the best candidate. If an unopposed candidate is not the best, I'd like to encourage you to "write-in" a candidate—it could even be your name. It's your vote; give it, only, as you would give a precious gift—to one who is worthy.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Cansema (also known as black salve) is a brand name of a popular alternative cancer treatment. The product is commonly classified as an escharotic—that is, a topical paste which burns and destroys skin tissue and leaves behind a thick, black scar called an eschar.[1] Escharotics were widely used to treat skin lesions in the early 1900s, but have since been replaced by safer and more effective treatments.[2] such as Mohs surgery. Escharotics such as Cansema are currently advertised by some alternative medicine marketers as treatments for skin cancer, often with unsubstantiated testimonials and unproven claims of effectiveness.[3] The U.S. Food and Drug Administration listed Cansema as a "fake cancer cure" and warned consumers to avoid it.[4]
Contents |
Cancer salves were first documented as a form of quackery in a 1955 Time article:
A 37-year-old housewife had a skin condition that later (at Duke) proved not to be a cancer. Convinced that it was, she had gone to a backwoods healer, who applied a salve. Soon a quarter-sized hole disfigured her nose, opened up the nasal cavity. Duke's plastic surgeons had to build her a new nose.[5]
More recent reports document the ongoing marketing of escharotics via the Internet as purported "cures" for skin cancer.[6]
Cansema and other escharotics are not recommended as treatments for skin lesions or skin cancer. The effectiveness of escharotics is unproven, and much safer and more effective alternatives exist, such as Mohs surgery. Escharotics can cause serious scarring and damage to normal skin. Their manufacture is largely unregulated, so the strength and purity of marketed products are unknown and unverified.[3] Numerous reports in the medical literature describe serious consequences of using escharotics in place of standard treatments for skin cancer, ranging from disfigurement to preventable cancer recurrences.[1][6][7][8]
The website Quackwatch posted a warning against the use of escharotics in 2008. The site collected a variety of sourced documents compiling issues of patient injury from the use of escharotics.[9] Common ingredients of black salves include zinc chloride, chapparal (or Larrea tridentata).[10] and often bloodroot, a plant which has numerous uses in herbal medicine.[11] The extract of bloodroot is called sanguinarine, an ammonium salt which attacks and destroys living tissue and is also classified as an escharotic.
Cansema is listed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as one of 187 fake cancer cures.[4] Cansema continues to be marketed by numerous individuals, as referenced by recent FDA Warning Letters.[12] The FDA has taken enforcement action against illegal marketing of Cansema as a cancer cure, as in the 2004 arrest and conviction of Greg Caton.[13]
The FDA has taken an active role in the banning of these chemicals for use as a cancer cure.[14] Typical warning letters detail the dangers of this product while also admonishing the purveyors of their obligation to comply with federal law.[15] Summaries of recent letters are cataloged on the FDA website.[16]
The Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) of Australia has banned Cansema for human use In Australia.

The popular trend towards enormous, flamboyant hats reached its zenith during the Edwardian era.
Circa 1901, fashionable ladies' headwear featured elaborate assemblies of taffeta, silk bows, coloured ostrich feathers, flowers and even artificial fruit. The mainstay of the Edwardian hat was the artfully concealed hatpin, and as the hats themselves grew ever larger, so too did the pins. Some antique examples are thirteen inches long and resemble nothing so much as unbated, miniature fencing foils. A wealth of evidence from the period demonstrates that hatpins were popularly regarded as secret weapons, and indeed as "every woman's weapon" against the depredations of hooligans and ill-mannered brutes.
Laws against hatpins of "excessive length", or the wearing of hatpins without protective stoppers, were proposed in Hamburg, Berlin and New York among other cities. 20 "Doctor Who" Parodies.

The essence of photography is being ready for any situation, and no compact digital camera achieves that better than the Panasonic Lumix FZ200. A constant aperture lens with an unprecedented zoom level, high sensitivity sensor and an extra-speedy operation help the Panasonic FZ200 rise to the occasion, regardless of your subject or environment.
Many cameras today boast superzoom lenses, but none as impressive as the Panasonic Lumix FZ200. With a range of 25-600mm, you can capture a wide scenic vista in one shot, and just as easily zoom in to capture the details in a far away bird. The FZ200 lens has a 14-element construction that includes aspherical and Extra Low Dispersion Lenses, which improve image quality by cutting down on optical aberrations. But most impressive about the Lumix FZ200's lens is its constant F2.8 aperture. Unlike any other lens in a compact digital camera, the fast lens of the FZ200 can be used at F2.8 up to 600mm, giving you extra light-gathering ability and the fastest shutter speeds possible even at long zoom lengths. With such an advanced, versatile lens, the Panasonic FZ200 is the perfect camera for everything from vacations to the sidelines of a youth soccer game.
Behind the lens of the Panasonic Lumix FZ200 is a 12.1 Megapixel High Sensitivity MOS sensor, powered by the Panasonic Venus Engine. This combo lets the FZ200 take vivid images in all lighting conditions, thanks to an ISO range of 100-6400 and an Intelligent Noise Reduction system. For scenes with contrasty lighting, the Lumix FZ200 can employ Intelligent HDR (High Dynamic Range), which takes multiple exposures and combines them for a perfectly exposed photo. The advanced Venus Engine gives the FZ200 pro-level operational speed as well. Flip the power switch and the FZ200 is ready to shoot in under a second. Carefully compose your images and snap them one at a time, or capture fast-moving action at 12 frames per second, in full resolution. For truly high-speed shooting, a special mode lets you take 60 photos per second at 3.5 megapixel resolution.
For all its advanced features, the Lumix FZ200 is also designed for total ease of use. If you prefer the feel of a traditional camera, compose your photos through the 1,312k-dot electronic viewfinder. Or find a creative angle for your photo with the 3-inch free-angle LCD screen, which tilts and rotates through a wide range of motion. A zoom lever is positioned for easy operation with your left hand, while you trigger the shutter with your right. And a wealth of creative modes ensures that even if you don't know the science of photography, your photos will still turn out great. With a Panasonic Lumix FZ200 digital camera at your side, you'll record all your life's moments in unprecedented clarity.

GGAs (Golgi-localizing, gamma-adaptin ear homology domain, ARF-interacting proteins) are critical for the transport of soluble proteins from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to endosomes/lysosomes by means of interactions with TGN-sorting receptors, ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF), and clathrin. The amino-terminal VHS domains of GGAs form complexes with the cytoplasmic domains of sorting receptors by recognizing acidic-cluster dileucine (ACLL) sequences. Here we report the X-ray structure of the GGA1 VHS domain alone, and in complex with the carboxy-terminal peptide of cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor containing an ACLL sequence. The VHS domain forms a super helix with eight alpha-helices, similar to the VHS domains of TOM1 and Hrs. Unidirectional movements of helices alpha6 and alpha8, and some of their side chains, create a set of electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions for correct recognition of the ACLL peptide. This recognition mechanism provides the basis for regulation of protein transport from the TGN to endosomes/lysosomes, which is shared by sortilin and low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein.

I am currently working on a Second Wind Dream project for an elderly hospice patient. While we are able to address many of his outlined wishes, his most notable is a longing to go to the Grand Old Opry. He played banjo with the bluegrass legend Earl Scruggs' father.
At this time, the man is not physically able to make the trip from North Georgia to Nashville, however there may be a way to bring a bit of the Opry to him. I am looking for anyone with ideas or Opry contacts that could help us get this dream fulfilled. The planned date for the dream fulfillment is August 20th.
Maybe a picture autographed.
Maybe a Grand Ole Opry sign.
Maybe a tshirt.
The beauty of the Second Wind Dreams program is that there is truly only 6 degress of separation. Someone in the social media world has an answer or someone you know has an answer.
I'll just sit here and wait while you talk among yourselves……….

Khloe finally reveals that she and Lamar are having major problems in their marriage, during the Oct. 6 episode of 'KUWTK.' It's the first time Khloe has ever admitted to their issues on the show.
Khloe Kardashian is sitting with her youngest sister, Kylie Jenner, and eating lunch, when all of a sudden Lamar Odom calls Khloe's phone. When she answers, she becomes incredibly annoyed with Lamar, who keeps calling her, so she gets up and calls him from her mom, Kris Jenner's, house phone. Khloe tells Lamar that he's starting to "bug out" a little bit when he keeps asking her where she is, as she keeps trying to convince him that she's calling from her mom's house.
Khloe Kardashian Finally Admits To Marriage Problems With Lamar Odom
Poor Khloe, it's finally evident just how much pain she's going through. In an episode, most likely shot in May, Khloe reveals that she and Lamar are going through very tough times. This is several months before it had been revealed in the press that they were having issues.
The reality star alludes to problems with Lamar throughout the entire episode. First, she's arguing with Kim Kardashian about her fertility struggles and then tells the camera that there's more to why she can't get pregnant but that it's between her and Lamar. Could she possibly be insinuating that Lamar's alleged drug use is to blame?
Next, Kylie wants to know if Lamar is coming to her sweet sixteen birthday party and Khloe says he's not going. Each time Lamar's name gets brought up, she becomes very exasperated and appears to be totally over the entire situation. As to why she's continued to hold on for almost five more months, I guess we'll have to watch it unfold on the show.
But the most telling part of the entire episode, was when Kylie and Khloe were eating lunch in their mom's kitchen, and a paranoid Lamar keeps calling Khloe.
Lamar Odom Paranoid During 'KUWTK'
If you remember, the woman Polina Polonsky, who claims to have had an affair with Lamar, said that Lamar was convinced he was being followed and thought his phone was tapped.
The fact that Khloe kept having Lamar call her repeatedly and then he didn't believe where she was, shocked everyone. When Kylie tried to ask Khloe what was going on, Khloe shrugged and said she couldn't even being to explain what's going on.
It's absolutely clear that Khloe and Lamar have really big problems. It also appears that Khloe is defeated and tired of Lamar's antics.
I wouldn't be surprised if Khloe ends up filing for divorce and we get to watch it all go down.
HollywoodLife.com told you that Khloe has no plans of slamming Lamar on the show, according to multiple sources.
HollywoodLifers, although Khloe has yet to file for divorce, do you think they're going to split up?

I do not believe that was Lamar calling. If the footage was indeed shot in "May" and they were having problems then, why was Lamar at Kim's baby shower (which was June 2nd)? Everything seemed normal, and now all of a sudden they are having problems – months before the baby shower? This scene is beyond fake. Last time I checked, whenever they are on the phone – the phone call has to be on speaker.
But who cares? We all know reality tv is fake – it's a business meant to make money.
Posted at 3:16 PM on October 7, 2013
Doubt very seriously if that was Lamar on the phone. I remember when I use to watch this show back in the day, Khloe and her 1/2 sisters claimed to have hacked Khloe's then boyfriend Rashad's phone but he later said it was a fake because they didn't have his phone number and him and Khloe had broke up That's why I'm not believing it's Lamar on the other end of the phone. It's likely a prop phone set up to ring and Khloe's talking to thin air.
Posted at 10:57 AM on October 7, 2013
During that seen I do not believe that Khloe was on the phone with Lamar, that whole seen is a fake. Keeping up with the Kardashians is far from reality, they control what goes on camera, what gets cut and even at times have regaled certain scenes. All the phone calls on the show are on speaker, we are on to you Kardashians! I agree look at their hair styles and color just in that one episode.

Don't be duped by these phonies. Those scenes were only filmed in the last few weeks and inserted into other episode footage shot much earlier. The lack of continuity in the hair styles and hair colors, the fact that Kim was obviously no longer pregnant (using a pillow for camouflage) gave it away. They did the same thing when they were trashing Kris Humphries after Kim's separation, filmed new scenes putting Humphries in a bad light and retroactively setting the groundwork for the upcoming divorce. This family is cynical to the Nth degree, anything for money. Kris Jenner is behind all the stories "leaked" to TMZ trashing Lamar over the past couple of months. All to garner sympathy for Khloe and protect the family brand. This family is disgusting to the core.

Lamar and Khloe
Posted at 12:19 AM on October 7, 2013
It's obvious something is going on, especially since he hasn't been really seen on the show that much or often. The last time seen Kourtney asked how comes he's never been to her house and he and Khloe are not there usual love touch feel self. And it is the final thing, if someone was lying about me doing drugs and cheating I would be the first to fight my case because the squeakiest wheel gets oils not the quiet ones. Him and her not saying anything has fan the flame and made everyone believe they are true and Oct. 6 episode is proving that.

EEEwww. Beautiful? Sorry, but "Pretty is as pretty does" Khloe is foul-mouthed, childish, petty, conniving, nagging, and annoying, exactly like her mother. The fact that she's seeking attention by announcing her personal marital issues to the public in person, on the internet, and on this unreality show day after day after boring day is in no way attractive, let alone pretty. She needs to learn to grow up, stand her ground and say "No" to the money-grubbing, tasteless Kris J., and act like an adult. She should either act on the divorce threat and go on with with her life, or shut up and be mature about it.
Lamar called Khloe and didn't believe her that she was at her moms? So what? He kept calling her cause he thought she was lying. That is no surprise. Also the reason she could not get pregnant was cause she knew he had two girl friends on the side and didn't want to bring a kid into the mess. Drugs? I do not believe Lamar does drugs, unless him and Khloe did them together and she wanted to stop. Then exposed him cause she was jealous of his girl friends.

Why do you believe he was calling her repeatedly? Because Khloe said so? The whole thing was fake to put Lamar in a bad light and garner sympathy for Khloe. Kris Jenner is trying to protect the family's brand by throwing Lamar under the bus and making Khloe look like the victim. The truth is that Khloe has known for years about Lamar's drug use, and she never talked about leaving him until stories about him being unfaithful surfaced. If not for that, she probably would have gone right on enabling him.

Where are the gaps in public transit and human services transportation? Who are the transportation providers in a particular county? How can transportation providers work together to increase service and reduce costs? Answers to these questions and many more may be found in coordinated transportation plans, formally referred to as locally developed, coordinated public transit-human services transportation plans.
Most metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) in Ohio have produced coordinated transportation plans that include all of the counties in their respective planning areas. Other groups have produced coordinated transportation plans covering counties not located within an MPO planning area. As of mid-2011, coordinated transportation plans covered 73 of Ohio's 88 counties.
Federal law requires that projects selected for assistance under three programs—Elderly Individuals and Individuals with Disabilities (Section 5310), Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC), and New Freedom—be derived from a coordinated transportation plan. Plans must be developed through a process that includes representatives of public, private, and nonprofit transportation and human services providers and participation by the public. FTA's circulars for these programs include guidance on developing and adopting coordinated transportation plans. Plans should be updated every four to five years.
Rural transit providers are expected to be participants in the local planning process, and the inclusion of rural intercity mobility needs and intercity bus operators in the planning process in rural areas is encouraged.
ODOT staff are available to attend coordinated transportation plan kickoff meetings. While ODOT has no formal role in plan approval or adoption, staff are available to review draft plans for adherence to FTA guidelines.
Below is a list of coordinated transportation plans in Ohio. ODOT relies on and appreciates the assistance of local governments and agencies in keeping the list up-to-date.
Red = Needs Plan
Blue = Plan in Progress
Yellow = Has Plan
Green = Has Plan and Mobility Manager
Orange = Large Urban County with Plan

It's the third We Should Cocoa challenge and Chele has chosen caramel for November. When I found out, I was excited but also rather nervous, a definite challenge for me this time. First, what exactly is meant by caramel? Well it seems virtually anything goes: boiled sugar on its own or a combination of boiled sugar with water and maybe added butter or cream - hum? Last time I attempted making caramel for this chocolate and caramel salted tart, I burnt it and it tasted horribly bitter. I didn't want to make that mistake again. This recipe for salted caramel buttercream I adapted from Fiona Cairns's Bake & Decorate and the cake recipe I adapted from here.
This is what I did:
- Dissolved 7oz vanilla sugar (could use granulated sugar and add 1 tsp vanilla extract later) in 100ml water.
- Brought to the boil and "watched like a hawk", as advised by Fiona Cairns for a while and then got a bit bored as took a lot longer to caramelise than "a few minutes". Luckily, I did catch it this time before it burnt
- Poured in 184ml double cream. It all went very lumpy at this point, but I stirred and stirred and eventually all became smooth.
- Stirred in 1/2 tsp pink Himalayan rock salt.
- Creamed 5oz unsalted butter with 4oz light muscovado sugar
- Beat in half the caramel.
- Broke in two duck eggs (large hens eggs are fine) and beat well.
- Sifted in 4oz flour (1/2 wholemeal, 1/2 white), 1oz of cocoa, 1 tsp baking powder and a pinch of bicarb of soda.
- Spooned into 12 cupcake cases and bake at 180C for 20 minutes.
- Creamed 3oz salted butter with 4oz icing sugar until my arm was sore and the mixture was very light and fluffy.
- Beat in the remaining caramel.
- Spread on top of the cooled cupcakes.
- Licked the bowl clean - reckoned it was the best buttercream I've yet made.

The nonpublic session was closed at 4:05 p.m. MINUTES: Jordan moved to accept the Minutes of January 23 and January 30th; seconded by Boland; unanimously approved. HIGHWAY REPORT: Grassett reported the town has received a check in the amount of $4,876.67 from FEMA for the December 2011 snowstorm. A public hearing will need to be held to accept the funds. A date has not yet been set for the hearing. Evergreen Hill: The next road of concern for Grassett is Evergreen Hill. He has started budgeting for culverts to do a closed drainage system on that road. He would like to put the FEMA funds toward the project. Those funds would allow him to get approximately 500 to 600 feet up the hill. Main Street: Grassett brought in a form to be signed by LaPlante in order to obtain the $5,000 balance due the town from B.U.R. on the Main Street project. This will close out that project. Retirement: Grassett will be receiving a retirement notice from an employee very soon. He will need to move forward to fill that slot and asked the Board for their thoughts. There is one prospective candidate but the position will need to be posted for any others who may be interested. The notice will be posted only after Grassett has the notice in hand. LIAISON REPORTS: SAU: Jordan reported the budget presentation was contentious and included discussion of the bond and the return of surplus from 2011. The district is currently spending money from 2011 that was not in the budget. Discussion of the bond included a review of comparative costs on options A, B and C as well as the size differences. Jordan stated he will be speaking under the Public Comment portion at the school board meeting. Boland thanked Jordan for being there and having good knowledge of the topic. Recreation: LaPlante reported the Recreation Committee will be meeting Feb. 7th to finalize the Winter Frolic. POLICE REPORT: Chief Wood was in to discuss the Advisory CommitteeÔs feelings regarding the police cruiser on the 2012 warrant. If the current cruiser is held for another year it may need additional funds in the maintenance line. He would add $1,000 to that line. Wood feels he needs administrative help above having another cruiser. He will work with whatever budget is approved. SELECTBOARD MINUTES FEBRUARY 6, 2012 PAGE TWO Wood stated he still needs to keep part time officers active, to maintain their interest in staying here as well as in keeping them current. The Hancock Police Department is being more proactive. He feels the overlaps of shifts are working well. There are fewer juvenile issues because the officers are being seen in more locations now. Further, he still wants a part time secretary. He would like to have 2500 hours as a temporary position. The position will need to be posted and a job description needs to be available. The Selectboard feels the general public doesn't realize how much work was not being covered for a few years, in the past. Boland noted the government and prosecution is increasing workloads and demands on everyone. She feels Wood needs to keep the staff because what is being done by the officers does work in keeping burglaries and other crimes lower. Wood does not expect Officers Weeks and Hetrick to assist with prosecution. Wood stated he is currently spending about three quarters of his time in the office; he is not getting some things organized that need to be. Discussion of the use of the confiscated money was held. Chief Wood stated there are limitations on what that money can be used for, i.e. drug related issues can be considered. ELDERLY EXEMPTION: The Board reviewed some data just received and concluded it would be best to hold on making any changes to the exemption and the qualifications until 2013. POLICE BUDGET: The Selectboard discussed the Police budget again and agreed to add $1,500 to the part time line. RECESSED: The regular meeting of the Selectboard was recessed at 5:30 and will re-open for the public hearing of the budget and warrant at 7:00 p.m. February 6, 2012 LaPlante opened the hearing and thanked Pat Payne, Marsha Kono and the whole Budget Advisory Committee for their work. The expenses were the first area to be reviewed. LaPlante highlighted the areas with the greatest increases. The increase in the Executive line was, in large part, the inclusion of the cyclical revaluation and a new server. Employee Benefits: The health insurance has increased but it was noted that the employees will also be increasing their contributions from 5% to 7.5%; the employer's share of the NH Retirement for Police has increased significantly. The employees are receiving step increases on their date of hire. Cemeteries: The large increase in the Cemetery budget is for the work to be done on the land donated by the Amidons, next to Hillside Cemetery. This increase does have total revenue offset from the cemetery trust funds. Police: The increases in the police budget are due to major fuel increases, increased cost of ammunition and an increase in dispatch services. Fire: The Fire department budget actually dropped this year. This was due in part to a move of their electricity line to the Town Buildings electricity line. Highway: Much of the highway budget increase is due to the increase in the fuel costs. This increase impacts many areas of the highway budget, beyond the gas and diesel lines. Grassett noted the decrease in the Highway Block Grant and explained some of the changes in the gas tax that impact the block grants. Recreation: This department is seeing an increase because of plans to include recreation programs that will be offered this year, i.e. bus trips. These will, however, have revenue offsets. The Summer Recreation Program and the swimming lessons have some revenue offset to them. LaPlante then moved to the Revenue budget: Motor vehicle fees: These have been at a decreased level for the past several years and have not seemed to rebound yet. State revenues: The NH Rooms and Rental took a significant drop last year and will continue at the lower rate. State and Federal Floodland: LaPlante noted that has decreased because the State of NH will not be paying the portion due from the Federal Government share that has not been paid to NH. Sale of Town Property: That line has a large increase this year due to the sale of a piece of property taken by the town, by tax deed. FEBRUARY 6, 2012 PAGE TWO Income from Rents: This line has increased because the United States Post Office rent rate has commenced its new five-year increase. LaPlante then moved on to the Selectmen's Tax Calculation Sheet. It was noted the town portion represents 26% of the whole tax rate. The warrant articles were then reviewed. Town Clock: Marie Fogg asked what is planning to be done to the town clock. The response was to have it repainted and the hands and numerals re-gilded. LaPlante noted that article for $8,400 will be paid from the 2011 fund balance. Meetinghouse: David Carney asked if there is an update on the Meetinghouse roof. Grassett responded the roof is at the end of its useful life; nails are no longer holding. There are some structural issues that impact the steeple. When the building was moved in 1851 an inside wall was moved but nothing was put in to hold the weight of the steeple. A structural engineer is needed to determine where columns are needed underneath in order to stabilize the steeple. The fact that it is built on so much sand has definitely helped the building over the years. A plan will be worked on for the balance of the work, i.e. roof and stabilizing, for next year. The current plan for 2012 will continue to protect and preserve the building now. The Grapevine: Jane Richards-Jones spoke to the article noting they are no longer receiving any state funding. The spokespeople would like to see the town place the amount back up to the $5,000 originally asked for this year. LaPlante addressed the fact that Hancock is paying 25% more but fewer people from Hancock attend. She is concerned for Hancock giving more than their fair share compared to the other towns. Kristen Vance stated it is based on population. They are asking Hancock for 25% more but it hasn't reached that percentage yet in attendance. Vance noted they have started a substance abuse program this year that is an evidence based curriculum. The state funding was lost for that program but they did obtain an outside supporter. LaPlante stated she is willing to go up to $4,000; however, the Board agreed it will stay at $3,750 in the warrant and further action may be taken at town meeting if someone so chooses. Beth Bradford also spoke in favor of supporting The Grapevine to the requested amount. LaPlante said she would like to see what the population is for each of the four towns involved. Vance stated if the town's share had increased each year it would have equaled 3%-4%. Other statements made: o Prevention preserves o Consider working more directly with the Welfare Officer o There has been an increase in charitable donations o The Grapevine is working on other areas for long term sustainability FEBRUARY6, 2012 PAGE THREE LaPlante suggested bringing to town meeting a list of items people from Hancock actually participate in. The warrant article pertaining to the renovations to the bandstand will be covered by $10,000 from the Hancock Improvement Association and $10,000 from the 2011 fund balance. There will be no 2012 tax dollars needed for either this article or the town clock repair. LaPlante noted the $520 for St. Joseph's Community Services replaces the funds previously given to the Senior Nutrition program for many years. That program no longer exists but several people do make use of the St. Joseph's Meals program. Boland stated this program actually has delivery people who spend some time with the people to determine that they are, in fact, doing all right or whether there are issues that someone should look into. The importance of continuing to build both the Bridge Capital Reserve fund and the Meetinghouse Capital Reserve fund were duly noted. These funds are also needed when the town goes for a grant, as they will indicate the town's intentions, long term. David Carney, speaking with regard to the budget, suggested having more detail in some areas of the budget in the future. This will be considered for another year. Carney noted the Child Advocacy was in the previous year's warrant but not in this one. Chief Wood stated the program is not being used by Hancock at this time. There being no further discussion, LaPlante closed the hearing. The Selectboard then reviewed all the warrant articles and determined their placement within the warrant. ADJOURNED: The meeting and public hearing were adjourned at 8:45 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Barbara Caverly Recording Secretary

Girls will also learn how to deal with the range of emotions they're experiencing in a constructive way, while also getting the tools they need to build their confidence and adopt positive self-images. And, most importantly, The Care & Keeping of You 2 guides girls on how to talk to their parents or other trusted adults about their questions and worries about growing up.

I was thinking about a Christmas amnesty in which we all have to be nice to each other for a set period of time. There are, IMO, two ways of doing this. One is to cover the whole period when it will be Christmas in the US. So, from 12am ET on 25th December (0700 GMT) to 12AM Pacific Coast time (or whatever is it called) on 26th December, we have to be nice to each other. The other way would be done that we have to be nice to each other for the period when it is Christmas anywhere in the world, thus extending the amnesty a little. That would mean midday today GMT (it is 0812 GMT at time of writing) or 7AM today ET. It would then extend through to 1159 GMT on 26/12 or 0659 ET. Please correct me if my maths is wrong, BTW. What do you all think? What's more, I suggest that we all extend a personalised Christmas greeting to our political forumistas. Here's hoping Santa brings us another Superbowl win, not that I'm greedy or anything.
No fair, Gomez, you're already nice. I think you should have to be rude for Christmas day if you're going to expect rude people to be nice, because otherwise you're not giving up anything!
As you wish! In a lack of deference to the US, I shall start being rude from 0000 GMT, i.e. 1900 ET, providing Miss Gomezcat's rather nice Mulled Wine doesn't take too much hold by then.....
Yes, and words like "rotter", "bloody" and "damn". I shall also order you all to do stuff, not say please or thank you and not address you as "old bean" or "old chap". I shall also not take off my bowler hat before entering the chatroom, call you all cads and bounders, talk with my mouth full of food, burp, fart and generally behave obnoxiously. Two and a half hours and counting!
Judging by some posts that have come in after this thread was started ... Well, it doesn't look like it's going to work ...
I suspect not, but hey, I tried! Good to see you up and running BTW. I did think of you when the hurricane hit. Are you back in NO?
I'd abide by this ONLY if that traitorous snake NEM was re-banned. He can go eff himself this Christmas for all I care.
They closed the Osama thread because the "PATRIOTIC Neo Cons" were defending America and trashing the "Haters"
Actually, I never left ... Rode out the storm, ignored the "mandatory" evacuation, just me, some friends, and our rations. In a way, the weeks after the storm were pleasantly quiet ... I know, it was serious (hey, I'm living it). But at 8 at night, with no power (and some very decent weather), a small fire going in the makeshift grill (I think it was a wheelbarrow) ... In a way it was very peaceful. Once power came back I was at the shop clearing out the mess. 17" of water (we got lucky) still makes a mess.
Did FEMA and the gov't take care of you 100%? is Bush bad for not insisting you get out? How dare you be self sufficient. You're making our gub'ment obsolete. I hope you at least took a free boat ride with Sean Penn and his photographer.
Funny, I never saw it as gov'ts resposnibility to get anyone out. A mere $10 a week set aside = $520/year. Considering the need for evacuation may occur every 10 years ... That's $5200 lying in wait to get you and your family out. Add to that $5200 another $4400 ($2000 initial FEMA, another $2400 supplemental FEMA - both of which I received with 60 days) and you now have $9600. That covers an $800/month apartment. Plus, everyone who was dislocated qualified for food stamps (~$150/month), State and Federal rent assistance (how does 1 year rent/utilities paid sound to you?). So, really, all you need is to ensure that you can cover the cost of leaving and can house/feed yourself for 2 months. Personal reliability/responsibility ... It's a lost art here in America.
Chevy, I'm glad your okay, but think your decision to wait out the storm was risky. Who would have rescued you and your friends if things played out differently?
My main concern was standing guard over my business - looters, you know. Fortunately, we didn't have that problem in Metairie ... Beyond that, I really wan't concerned. Yes, I'll admit it got pretty damn hairy here, but I was confident in being able to tough it out. Now, had the storm come straight at us ... well, that's another story, isn't it .. :grin: Besides ... Since the 29th of August I've lost almost 20 pounds and have gone a long way to adapting to the Louisiana heat (no ac will do that to you).
WHO WOULD HAVE TAKEN CARE OF YOU???? Without people like Patters' ilk, the government and politicians making promises would be out of business. When will people wake up and realize that other than National Security and infrastructure, we do not NEED the government?
It seems to be part of the human condition that people gravitate towards family, then tribes, then villages, then states, and so forth. Other than that, National Security and infrastructure are such big words, I could agree with you even though I favor bigger government. My belief is that big government works when it is transparent and fails when it is secret and protected (as is the case under Bush).
Thats a delusion you've labored under then as big government NEVER works, is ALWAYS inefficient and the one solution to every problem they have is to throw more money at it.
No, Turd, your mistake is that you mistake openness for failure. Because parts of our government are open, it's very easy to see what it does wrong. Special interest groups, the media, and politicians all seize on any opportunity to expose a scandal or example of incompetence. It's good news. Private business and individuals are not nearly as exposed as government, so people like you think they're cleaner. Yet, that's fairly illogical. The likelihood of a government employee being caught is far greater than the the likelihood of someone in private business. In addition, there's no reason to think that the humans who make up the government are any less representative of all of us than those who make up the private sphere. If you compared government to private business, they both work about as well. Businesses are as likely to pollute, shortchange their employees, not pay their taxes, and go bankrupt as government is as likely to be overly bureaucratic, inefficient, etc. So, why is one so much worse than the other? I suppose if you're obsessed about wasting money, I can see your point, but I think there are several issues more important than wasting money.
Less federal governemnt, with very specific powers, is far better than more. Let the state's run their affairs - they are better suited to it.
The states get less scrutiny and thus are more easily corrupted. Look at Lousiana for proof! I think the key to government is openness and a free press. In this regard, I agree with groups like the ACLU.

Smile and Say 'Cheese'
Gnome's Computerized Photo Booth
I'm going to start this column with a confession. This is the truth. I had no idea that the application I'm going to show you was inspired by something from Apple. The reason I discovered my ignorance is that the last time I was in my local FutureShop store, I wandered over to the Apple section. You see, I wanted to see what a MacBook Air looked like. It's pretty slim, and kind of sexy, if you want my honest opinion. But that's not the confession part.As I looked at the screen, I could see my face being picked up by the built-in Webcam. The application doing so is something called Photobooth. I looked at it and thought, "Hey, that looks like Cheese in Linux." Shows where my mind spends its time. As it turns out, Cheese does take its inspiration from Mac OS X's Photobooth. Cheese, this cool little Webcam application, is the brainchild of Daniel Siegel, a project he developed as part of Google's 2007 Summer of Code. Think of Cheese as a computerized version of those booths you step into in malls or fairs, the ones that happily take your dollars and spit out four small photos of you and whoever else you can cram in the small booth. That's pretty much the concept, but it's a lot less expensive to use and you can probably crowd more people around your Webcam.

@David09 - I'd just like to point that a network diagram is not just limited to computer resources. You can also have a logical network diagram.
For example, my project manager creates a project network diagram that expands upon the basic Gantt chart she uses to track projects. The project network diagram breaks down projects and resources to their granular level, providing a greater level of detail of how much time the project is actually taking and also allowing her to categorize project tasks based on precedence levels (priorities).
It helps us all stay on task and properly focus on the most important needs at any given time, as we juggle multiple tasks.

QUOTE OF THE DAY....Ana Marie Cox on how to get the Bush administration to cooperate with Senate questioning:
You know if the Senate would just call it "legislative waterboarding" and not "oversight," I bet they could get Cheney to support it.
Good old Wonkette. Always there to reduce important national issues to snarky pseudo-hip prattle.
The way to get the White House to pat attention to Congress is to open impeachment proceedings against Gonzalez at the very least, and possibly against Cheney. Even if the Democrats do not follow through and hold a trial in the Senate, and least it will give them some negotiating leverage, something which Congress has little of right now.
What a quaint idea!
Fine, let's impeach his ass in Norway.
mfw13; Be real. Impeachment would just create a profitable controversy for FoxNews and CNN. The Republicans will obstruct in the House - they won't get enough votes in the Senate, and if any technicalities go to the courts, Bush has them stacked with cronies who will cover him.
That's not to say I'm not for impeachment, or I'm not for pursuing it. I just think we need to be realistic about what we can expect to achieve.
Democrats need to pursue (at the same time) a Constitutional Amendment that puts limits on the Executive powers of Executive Privilege, Orders, and Signing Statements. So we will never again, have another national tragedy like the 43rd presidency.
The Amendment won't succeed (not with this congress anyway) - but it will be political suicide for anyone who opposes it.
Democrats need to pursue (at the same time) a Constitutional Amendment that puts limits on the Executive powers of Executive Privilege, Orders, and Signing Statements.
Because if you can't get 2/3 in one house of Congress to deal with a specific wrongdoer with no changes to the law, its easy to get 2/3 in both Houses and support of 3/4 of the state legislatures for a change to the fundamental law to address the same problem.
So we will never again, have another national tragedy like the 43rd presidency.
Right, because the difficulty of amending the Constitution aside, when the Congress shows it isn't willing to deal with abuses under the existing Constitutional order, every future President will be sure to obey any new limits that are put on paper.
That's thinking outside of the hot-box!
I recently saw some new reality show where they electrically shocked the voluntary participants when they remembered incorrectly.
"I don't recall", which is repeatedly spewed by our supposedly [two fingers up on each hand] "best and brightest" legal and political minds would soon become an extinct rational...
Ah, Kevin.
Not funny.
As The Simpsons movie opens this weekend, President Bush is under a withering assault from all sides. Which is altogether fitting. Because with each passing day, the scandal-plagued Bush White House more and more resembles a 2000 episode of The Simpsons. During a check up, the nuclear power tycoon Mr. Burns is informed by his doctor that "you are the sickest man in the United States. You have everything." (See a video clip here.) But the doctor reassures Burns that the news isn't all bad and that he will survive because "all of your diseases are in perfect balance."
In fact, George W. Bush may be hanging on because of, and not despite, the staggering epidemic of scandals enveloping his administration.
For the details, see: "The Simpsons Explain the Bush Presidency."
Well, now, either Gonzo's lying, or FBI Director is lying. Or, like Scooter Libby, they're just both a couple of really busy, hard working guys who can't be troubled to remember details, and really, what's the big deal, when there's no underlying crime?
What? No anal sex joke? Ms. Cox really has turned more serious, hasn't she?
Given our demonstrable propensity to overdose on our own self-righteousness, levity will often serve as a useful antidote.
Further, political humor and satire can starkly clarify for the general public the true magnitude and seriousness of a given situation or circumstance, and will thus convey a public sense of urgency far more effectively than repeated emotional appeals to either reason or rage.
political humor and satire
It's a long and honorable tradition that only the jokers can speak truth, but this doesn't say anything good about the nature of power.
Does even Pat know what he is trying to say?
The sad fact is Gonzalez appears to be a compulsive liar. He lies when he doesnât really need to â evidently he thinks whatever alternate reality he describes is just as legitimate as the real one. It was widely reported the first set of hearings were postponed when his White House handlers found he couldnât even keep his story straight in the rehearsals, not that the postponement did a lot of good. How did a clown like this get to be AG? Oh yah, I remember, his boss appointed him.
It's a mistake to blame only Bush or Cheney.
Blame the Republicans.
It's their mess and it will take an experienced and savvy Democrat to clean it up.
I really don't expect Gonzalez to stay around much longer.
While it may be true that the Bush White House just doesn't care anymore and that staff is just going through the motions, a lot of damage is being done out in the boondocks, so to speak. I expect our AG will be returning to his family fairly soon, pressures of the job, you know, etc., etc., etc.

Markets Jittery, Earnings Strong
With markets jittery and dipping into correction territory, here's a follow up to my recent entry, Economy versus Earnings:
According to Thomson Reuters, as of July 29th:
- The S&P 500 estimated earnings growth rate for Q2 is 10.3% based on companies reporting thus far. (16.3% if you exclude Bank of America)
- 73% of the 327 companies in the S&P 500 that have reported have beaten estimates
Of course, earnings are backward-looking (they describe the past, not the future). But what this illustrates is that corporate earnings (part of the heart and soul of stock investing), are in fine shape right now.
Also, see my "Market yips" entry from June 16th: "Big up years, up a-little-years, and down years all have big individual up and down days. Stick with your strategy and don't let market down days yip you into mistakes." We can add to that: corrections routinely happen during perfectly fine market years, too.
Days like the ones lately aren't easy to swallow, but getting whipsawed by a market correction is far worse.

One Day Tour Packages in Rincón de la Vieja, Guanacaste
Hiking to the Rincón de la Vieja Volcano should be on everyone's Costa Rican adventure list! Our original one-day tour combines the best of hiking in the Rincón de la Vieja National Park with the unique experience of volcanic pools at our Symbiosis Spa.
We'll start the tour from Hotel Hacienda Guachipelín, riding our calm and friendly ranch horses 45 minutes on scenic forest trails to the Rincón de la Vieja National Park main gate. From there, we'll go by foot on the Las Pailas ("The Cauldrons") Trail – a loop of about 2.5 miles (3.5 km), where you can enjoy the best views of the active volcano without climbing the main crater. You'll see a great variety of vegetation and trees, and the Park is home to mammals like raccoons, white-nosed coatis, agoutis, armadillos, tapirs and three species of monkeys, as well as birds such as the Blue-crowned Motmot, the Crested Guan and the Emerald Toucanet.
The most impressive and spectacular features of the National Park are its volcanic elements. Steam and sulphur pour out of the yellow and rust-colored ground at natural fumaroles. Clay and coffee-colored pools bubble with boiling hot volcanic water. Smooth grey volcanic mud froths and explodes upward at the "Cauldrons" ("Las Pailas" in Spanish), for which this section of the Park is named. You'll also find beautiful little rushing rivers and small waterfalls crisscrossing the trails.
When we finish our hike, the horses will be ready to take us to the Symbiosis Spa, located on the Hacienda Guachipelín Ranch by the Colorado River. Our recommendation for your optimum spa experience is to start with a natural sauna for about 15 minutes to open all of your skin's pores, then proceed to our volcanic mud pots where you apply the pure mineral clay mud all over. Let it dry and afterward wash it off by taking a shower. Then it's time to relax in your choice of three thermal water pools for about 20 minutes. Finish off your treatment with a cold shower so the pores of your skin can close again, and you'll feel reborn!
Besides this basic spa experience, we also offer a variety of massages, body and facial treatments to increase your feeling of rejuvenation. We advise you to make a reservation for additional treatments.

5 great scientific kids prezzycris82 | 26/10/2011 | See all cris82's reviews (2)Top 10 Toys Reviewer Got this as a stocking filler for my 9 yr old & he loves it, only need to use a small amount & will last ages. Definitely worth it for any budding young scientist.
2 Not what you think.mjalls | 28/12/2012 | See all mjalls's reviews (33)I got this as a funny stocking filler for my girlfriend so we could have a 'white Christmas' despite the rain...The concept is simple enough. You get two tubes full of a powder that has the consistency of sherbet. You empty half a tube into 80ml of water and stir.It doesn't create snow by any means. After stirring, the mixture congeals and leaves behind what has the appearance of slushy snow but to the touch is a slightly sticky, rubbery, damp mush of strange consistency.When you drop the mixture on the floor it does look a bit like snow but that is where the similarity ends. It binds together (as it is quite sticky) but it is just a rubbery mess and bounces off objects if you throw it (so no cheeky snowball fights).It is a pretty cool experiemental gift but 'Make your own Snow' is extremely far fetched. I appreciated the concept behind it but I think many would be left disappointed if they expected actual snow (which of course wouldn't be possible without freezing or some kind of liquid Nitrogen).
