Has anyone grown Salvia deserta?
I received a packet of seeds with Salvia deserta as the identity. Has anyone grown this species, and if so, would you tell of your experiences with the plant, what the flower looks like, how tall and wide does it grow, and its requirements for growth? By the species name, I would think it is adapted for low-rainfall areas but I have not been able to find anything on the web except that it is a native of Mongolia and Russia, it has purple flowers and "distinctive purple-red bracts".
Thanks in advance for sage wisdom.
Wilmington, Delaware, USA
Hello Joseph ! Yes, I have grown this species. I received seeds of it from Tashkent Botanical Garden, when I was there in 2005, and I also collected seeds of it in Chimgan ( Uzbekistan )It's a very hardy species, and is not xeric,even if it probably does well in a well drained site but it is probably very adaptable. I have grown it in a regular flower bed ( quite rich soil ), and it flowers first year from seed if sown early. Small purple flowers.
Paul, while you were in Tashkent, did you come across Salvia bucharica? It is named after the old spice road city of Bukhara and is found in Afghanistan and in the mountains to the north and east, including the Pamirs.
It is a very showy species with large rose bracts, somewhat similar to the similarly showy American S. pachyphylla in habit. A lot of natural products chemistry has recently been done on the terpenes, so there should be some good collection data.
My profession is natural products chemistry, but I am retired and do not have access to professional articles because of the expenses of ordering articles that may or may not be useful.
I could not find any online images to link to.
Here is a link that might be useful: Salvia bucharica Popov

This invention was made under U.S. Government Contract N-00019-02-C-3003. The Government has certain rights in the invention.
This invention relates to exit guide vanes and arrays thereof for turbine engines and particularly to a vane array that exhibits good aerodynamic performance across a spectrum of operating conditions and that interrupts an observer's line of sight to components upstream of the vanes.
Aircraft turbine engines include a turbine module for extracting energy from a fluid stream comprising hot, gaseous products of combustion. The turbine module includes one or more arrays of blades and one or more arrays of vanes. Each blade array comprises multiple blades projecting radially outwardly from a rotatable hub. One array of guide vanes resides aft of the aftmost array of blades. These vanes are referred to as exit guide vanes. During engine operation, the fluid stream flows through the turbine module causing each blade array and its associated hub to rotate about a rotational axis. The rotating blades impart a substantial circumferential velocity component or swirl to the fluid stream, which reduces the thrust output of the engine. The fluid stream discharging from the aftmost array of blades flows through the array of exit guide vanes which deswirls the fluid, causing it to flow in a substantially axial direction thereby restoring thrust output that would otherwise be lost.
Ideally, the exit guide vanes must satisfy several requirements. One requirement, as noted above, is to turn or deswirl the combustion gases coming off the aftmost array of blades so that the gases exit the turbine module in a substantially axial direction. Second, the guide vanes must be able to tolerate changes in the incidence angle of the oncoming gas stream. The incidence angle depends on the circumferential component of velocity imparted to the fluid stream by the blades. This component varies considerably as a function of engine power. In particular, the guide vanes must be able to capture and redirect the gas stream across a wide range of incidence angles without being susceptible to aerodynamic separation and the attendant aerodynamic losses. A third requirement is that the guide vane array must have enough flow capacity to accept the full volume of combustion gases delivered to it. Otherwise the guide vane array would choke the flow through the turbine resulting in a shortfall in thrust. Fourth, in some military applications it is desirable for the guide vanes to block or interrupt an external observer's line of sight to the hot, rotating blades. This helps make the engine and its host aircraft less conspicuous to radar and infrared detection equipment.
It is difficult to concurrently satisfy all these requirements with conventional vanes. A vane having a conventional airfoil cross-section benefits from a large leading edge radius and large leading edge wedge angle which allow the vane to tolerate a wide range of incidence angles without being susceptible to fluid separation. However the large radius and wedge angle constrain the flow capacity of the vane array. Flow capacity can be restored by using a smaller quantity of vanes, however doing so can establish a line of sight to the hot blades, making the engine and its host aircraft vulnerable to detection. The line of sight can be interrupted by using wide chord vanes, but such vanes have the disadvantage of introducing undesirable weight, possibly even more weight than was saved by reducing the quantity of vanes. Alternatively, the line of sight can be interrupted by using highly cambered vanes. However an individual highly cambered vane is susceptible to aerodynamic separation, and an array of such vanes may not have adequate flow capacity.
It may also be possible to satisfy the conflicting requirements by employing variable pitch angle vanes, however this has the considerable disadvantage of introducing additional weight, cost and complexity into the engine.
What is needed is a simple, light weight vane array that exhibits satisfactory aerodynamic performance across a spectrum of operating conditions and that interrupts an observer's line of sight to components residing upstream of the vanes.
According to one embodiment of the invention, the guide vanes of a turbine engine guide vane array define a set of fluid flow passages having a chordwisely converging forward portion. The vane array also has a solidity sufficient to resist separation of fluid flowing through the passages.
In another embodiment the vanes cooperate to obstruct an observer's line of sight to a selected plane upstream of the vane array.
The foregoing and other features of the various embodiments of the invention will become more apparent from the following description of the best mode for carrying out the invention and the accompanying drawings.
Referring to
Referring additionally to
Each guide vane 28 has a leading end 52 with a leading edge 54 and a trailing end 56 with a trailing edge 58. A chord line 62, depicted only in
Referring to
Each neighboring pair of vanes defines a fluid flow passage 74 having an inlet plane 76. Each passage has a chordwisely converging forward portion 80, i.e. a portion that diminishes in area with increasing distance from the inlet plane, a diverging mid-portion 82 and an aft portion 84 that ideally is non-convergent.
The vane array has a spanwisely varying solidity, which is the local ratio of chord to pitch at any given spanwise location, where pitch is the circumferential separation 86 between neighboring vanes. The solidity of the inventive vane array is high enough to resist fluid separation from surfaces 44, 46, i.e. the high solidity prevents separation from occurring or encourages momentarily separated fluid to quickly re-attach to the surfaces. In the illustrated embodiment, the solidity is at least about 3.
Each vane has a leading end lateral thickness tLE and a trailing end lateral thickness tTE (
The fluid stream F approaches the vane array at an angle of incidence I that varies across a range of values. In the example of
As seen best in
For the vane array of
In the partial vane array of
In operation, fluid approaches the vane array at an incidence angle and with a Mach number, both of which can vary as a function of engine power. The thin leading end 52 of each vane allows the vane array to balance the competing interests of tolerating a satisfactorily wide variation in the incidence angle without unacceptably restricting the flow capacity of the turbine. The solidity of the array and the relative circumferential positioning of the leading and trailing ends obstruct an observer's line of sight to planes upstream of the vanes. The high solidity of the array and the chordwise convergence of the forward portions 80 of passages 74 resist fluid separation.
Although this invention has been shown and described with reference to a specific embodiment thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and detail may be made without departing from the invention as set forth in the accompanying claims.

Title: A blood-based diagnostic test for the early detection of Alzheimer's disease.
Summary: Using sophisticated proteomic techniques, my current work focuses on developing a blood-based diagnostic test to indentify Alzheimer's disease before the onset of symptoms. Currently the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease is often captured too late, is inconsistent and costly; therefore, a cheap and simple blood test that can be routinely used in clinics would be ideal. This blood test could also contribute to the selection and stratification of patients for therapeutic drug trials.

Looking for unique chilled sake holder
tammyMay 14, 2001
My mother in-law fell in love with this unique sake holder at a Japanese Restaurant at the Grand Wailea Maui. They have this chilled sake decanter which holds the ice in the middle and the sake around it without touching eachother. Does anyone know wear I can get one of these on-line for her? I've tried searching on AOL as well as e-bay to no luck. I can only find the regular sets.

Welcome to Shawbury Vintners!
Shawbury Vintners was created in 2000 as a ''different'' wine sales company with a new approach to customer service and contact. Mike Newman, owner and driving force of the company had previously spent over 20 years in the wine business with a large international winery, where he had become increasingly frustrated by their attitude to ''King Customer'', causing him to leave and set up his own company equipped for a new century.
Customers found the wines and ethos a delight, and sales grew at a fast rate, aided by the company's ability to find new and exclusive fine wines for them to sample and purchase.
1.Antracita Ice Wine
From the same people that give us the Llama Malbec, here is a great example of a late harvest ice wine, It is made from 100% malbec grapes, which are picked off of vines that are over 100 years old. These vines are located in the sandy Alto Agrelo Valley, Argentina, where it is ideal for growing malbec vines.
Once the grapes are picked, they are prepared and spend 24 months fermenting and ageing in French Oak barrels. No sweetened grape juice, stabilisers or alcohol is added. This makes a deep red/purple colour with a complex, sweet aroma comprising of figs, plums and honey, along with an oily texture of intense flavour that confirms the aroma's you smelt. All together a perfect balance of sweetness, acidity and alcohol to give you a great tasting ice wine.
2. The Arduini family started their viticulture lifestyle back in the 1940's when Gabriele Arduini bought their first vineyard in Marano Di Valpolicella. The family business grew exponentially when, with the help of his three sons Battista, Alfredo and Turrido, they purchased two more vineyards in the 1960's, one in Campara, the other in Corrubbio, which is ancient land that belonged to Villa Banda Amistà.
To this day, the vineyards are looked after by Gabriele Arduini's grand son, Luciano and his family.

3. La Tordera
Our Prosecco's from the family owned La Tordera Vineyard, located in the hill sides of Vidor in the province of Treviso. This vineyard is over 70 years old and is still owned by the same family, who prefer to carefully hand pick their grapes.
We have 2 Prosecco's and 1 Spumante;
La Tordera Brunei - A refreshing prosecco with apple and acidic flavours, as a prosecco should be.
La Tordera Gabry - An elegant, fruity spumante rosé with hints of raspberry. Our customers fravourite of these 3
La Tordera Otreval - This Gold Medal Winning, fresh, minerally prosecco have been fermented twice, giving zero sugar. It has good structure with complex, fruity and floral aromas.
You will find Shawbury Vintners at all the prestigious wine, food and county fairs around the country. For a comprehensive list see our Calendar section

Can You Can Pesto?
Hola Harvest Forum!
I am going to be making some pesto this weekend and I know you can freeze it, of course you can refridgerate it.. but can you can it? Would the heat break things down into goop (for lack of a better cuilinary term)? Can I use my regular recipe or do I have to modify it?
Your assistance is appreciated! Thank you!
freeze it in flat sheets, I put some in freezer bags and lay them sideways in the freezer, they freeze nice and thin, when you need some, you can break off as much or as little that you need
I have also frozen mine in ice cube trays but it's easiest for me to just toss the basil in the food processor, add enough olive oil to bind, then scoop out tablespoons full onto waxed paper on a baking sheet. Freeze until solid, then pack into a plastic box or freezer bag and take out as many as you need later.
I freeze in a muffin tin---an old aluminum on that's fairly shallow. Then I pop out the little "pesto pucks," about 1/3 cup each (a good amount for how I cook) and wrap 'em individually.
Works great except for the fact that it always makes my husband run around singing "Pesto, pesto pucks" to the tune of "Disco Duck."

Fox have got big plans for the X-Men. Whilst Sony have buckled under the pressure of Marvel The Unstopabble Movie Machine and (sort of) relinquished the rights to the publisher's Spider-Man, soon to join their Cinematic Universe, Fox are powering through with plans to expand the world of their mighty mutants even further than prequels and Wolverine spin-offs.
Having revitalised the flagging franchise first with First Class and second with the timeline-altering Days Of Future Past, they've found a way to not only make X-Men films exciting again but also letting them essentially start from scratch. Which is why Deadpool's getting a solo movie, despite dying in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, and Gambit can be played by Channing Tatum despite looking a lot like Taylor Kitsch in that same film.
This morning brought the news that, following next main movie Apocalypse, star Jennifer Lawrence will be leaving the series behind. »

While there's still much we don't know about X-Men: Apocalypse, it has been confirmed that the story will be set in the 1980s and it will round out the trilogy started with X-Men: First Class and continued with last year's X-Men: Days of Future Past. The story is said to focus primarily on the younger mutants from those aforementioned movies, but a new rumor surfaced today that reveals X-Men: Apocalypse will also feature two cameos from fan-favorite X-Men characters, along with the introduction of a new mutant. There will be Spoilers below, so read on at your own risk.

HBO is looking to keep as many details about "True Detective" season two on lockdown, but in the age of internet, it's inevitable that we have, at the very least, a somewhat simple understanding of what the next season entails. The official logline states the plot revolves around three police officers (Colin Farrell, Taylor Kitsch, Rachel McAdams) and a career criminal (Vince Vaughn) who must navigate a web of conspiracy in the aftermath of a murder. We also know the show involves the transportation industry and occult in some manner, and now a few more details have surfaced. So, in case you really want to keep things fresh going in, **spoilers ahead**.

I have to assume if you watched the first season of HBO's "True Detective" you're in line and anxiously awaiting season two and perhaps some new plot details will increase your interest. First we'll go to a report from Movie Pilot where it takes early hints at the season's plot from creator Nic Pizzolatto and him saying the plot will revolve around "the secret occult history of the United States transportation system". For those not wanting any spoilers, perhaps look away as the site reports: The season is due to kick off with the dead body of a corrupt politician being found along the Pacific Coast Highway with satanic symbols carved into his chest. California Highway Patrol officers Colin Farrell and Taylor Kitsch are assigned the case.

The second season of True Detective is currently shooting, which means that the next installment of the series is well on its journey from meme to actual thing. It's been a few months since the last time we checked in with Nic Pizzolatto's dark dream, so here's what we know now about its cast, production, and plot. (There will be mild spoilers, so don't read this post if you want to go in as blind and pure as a newborn.) The Cast What we already knew: Colin Farrell and Vince Vaughn will star, with Farrell as "compromised detective" Ray Velcoro and Vaughn as Frank Semyon, "a career criminal in danger of losing his empire." What we know now: Rounding out our quartet of leads are two more Hollywood reclamation projects, Rachel McAdams and Taylor Kitsch. McAdams is Ani Bezzerides, a "no-nonsense" sheriff, while Kitsch is Paul Woodrugh, a veteran »

Snowden is set to release later this year.
Originally planned for 2016, the Oliver Stone-directed biopic has been moved up to Christmas Day (December 25, 2015) in the Us.
The movie stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Edward Snowden, the ex-cia employee who leaked classified files to the media back in 2013.
Gordon-Levitt will be joined Shailene Woodley, Melissa Leo, Zachary Quinto, Rhys Ifans, Tom Wilkinson, Joely Richardson and Timothy Olyphant.
Woodley is playing Snowden's girlfriend Lindsay Mills, a dancer who moved to Moscow to be with him.
Earlier this month, Clint Eastwood's son Scott was cast as a top Nsa agent whose life is forever changed by Snowden's actions.
Stone is also adapting the screenplay with Kieran Fitzgerald, from Luke Harding's The Snowden Files: The Inside Story of the World's Most Wanted Man and Anatoly Kucherena's Time of the Octopus.
Stone's last film was the 2012 movie Savages, starring Taylor Kitsch, »

True Detective Season 2 is easily one of the most highly anticipated TV events of 2015, and even though we finally know who will be starring in it and which characters they will be playing, a lot about the second season of the HBO series is still clouded in mystery. And while we don't have any new casting information or a trailer to show you, we do have your first look at True Detective Season 2 with these photos from the set of the show in Los Angeles, which were first published by ComingSoon.net. For the most part, these pictures don't really give anything away about the new season, but they do give off a very different look than any of the images we saw during the first season of True Detective. The shooting location, not to mention the clothing that Farrell, McAdams, and Kitsch are all wearing, indicates that True… »

Following the first photos that emerged earlier this week, new images from the True Detective Season 2 set in Los Angeles offer another look at Taylor Kitsch as he engages a gunfight alongside Colin Farrell. We also have more images of Rachel McAdams. Though, the one star we haven't seen yet is Vince Vaughn. Thankfully, the actor recently spoke with Playboy, where he offered some insight into this season. The actor reveals that he was initially cast as career criminal Frank Semyon when he approached True Detective series creator Nic Pizzolatto about writing The Rockford Files movie that the actor was developing.
"I was developing a movie version of The Rockford Files and met with Nic about writing it. He was really enthusiastic but was already working on a crime drama set in Los Angeles, and he gracefully said it was best for him to focus on True Detective. Then he »

As dynamic, spiritually opposite detective partners on the acclaimed first season of True Detective, Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson set a formidable acting standard for the HBO mystery-drama. But Season Two star Vince Vaughn isn't worried about living up to the hype, thanks to the engrossing scripts of creator Nic Pizzolatto. "[He] is such a great writer, and so much of this is driven by his stories," Vaughn said in a recent interview with Playboy. "I thought Woody and Matthew did an exceptional job with the first season.

With set-photos appearing online on a regular basis over the last few weeks, anticipation is building for the return of True Detective for its second season, which features a brand-new cast and new directors taking over from Matthew McConaughey, Woody Harrelson and company.
The cast for season two surprised many, but on many levels on adds to the anticipation and desire to see where creator Nic Pizzolatto takes the series next. Colin Farrell (Phone Booth), Rachel McAdams (A Most Wanted Man), Taylor Kitsch (Savages) and Kelly Reilly (Flight) are the major players for the new go-around, but the most left-field casting choice was that of Vince Vaughn as a California crime-lord in danger of losing his empire. Many were perplexed, others were intrigued, but what is true is that the material on offer here is so strong that the role could change Vaughn's career from here on out.

Now that "True Detective" has set its cast for season two (Vince Vaughn, Colin Farrell, Rachel McAdams, Taylor Kitsch and Kelly Reilly), the stars are finally starting to open up about the show's hotly anticipated return.
In an interview with Playboy, Vaughn admits that he's not feeling particularly pressured by the prospect of following Woody Harrelson's and Matthew McConaughey's acclaimed performances. "[Creator] Nic Pizzolatto is such a great writer, and so much of this is driven by his stories," Vaughn says. "I thought Woody and Matthew did an exceptional job with the first season. This one's very different, though. It's a totally different story, with its own characters. The thing that's consistent is the richness of the characters and the quality of the material."
The season's new setting has a lot to do with the difference in tone, according to Vaughn. "That was Louisiana. »

When it arrived unassumingly on the small screen this time last year, HBO's True Detective proved to be an instant hit due to its mix of compelling characters and a masterful sense of suspense. It rose above its other contemporaries as a police drama with real clout behind it, but with season two slated to go the anthology route and reset the entire set-up, fans are curious about how the series will continue.
Whatever the outcome in front of the camera, today we've been given a behind-the-scenes look at the filming of True Detective season two, which sees Colin Farrell, Rachel McAdams, Vince Vaughn and Taylor Kitsch assume the leading roles in lieu of Woody Harrelson and Matthew McConaughey.
Plot details are, as you'd imagine, scarce on the ground at this early stage, but that hasn't stopped HBO from releasing character descriptions for each of the aforementioned stars. »

Arguably TV's finest new original show of 2014, True Detective has gained many admirers since its critically-acclaimed debut last year. Now, after months of rumours and casting back-and-forth, the second season of the HBO show is in full production in Los Angeles, and some set photos have emerged over at ComingSoon.net showing some of the new cast in action. In the images, we can see stars Colin Farrell, Rachel McAdams and Taylor Kitsch in action on the streets of California, in what looks to be a shootout scene…
Farrell (Phone Booth) plays Ray Velcoro, a compromised detective whose allegiances are torn between his masters in a corrupt police department and the mobster who owns him; McAdams (A Most Wanted Man) plays Ani Bezzerides, a Ventura County Sheriff's detective whose uncompromising ethics put her at odds with others and the system she serves; while Kitsch (The Savages) plays Paul Woodrugh, »

If you were driving through Downtown Los Angeles yesterday, and suddenly felt like you'd entered an episode of HBO's hit drama series True Detective, it's because maybe you did. The three principle players in True Detective Season 2 were in the heart of the city this week, shooting new episodes for Nic Pizzolatto's acclaimed crime saga. And we have a first look at stars Colin Farrell, Taylor Kitsch and Rachel McAdams.
True Detective Season 2 is an all-new story not tied to the first season, and will center on crime and the occult in some of the lesser known areas of California. This time, we will follow three very different police officers and one career criminal as they become entangled in a web of conspiracy in the aftermath of a murder.

Sure, there are plenty of reasons why Tim Riggins has your heart, but actor Taylor Kitsch is just as sexy off screen, too. The 33-year-old Canadian actor first won over fans as tough, hunky football hero Riggins on Friday Night Lights, and over the past few years, he's been on the big screen thanks to movies like John Carter, Battleship, and Savages. Most recently, he appeared in The Normal Heart, and he's returning to the small screen with a buzzed-about role on True Detective. In any case, now seems like the perfect time to look back at some of his sexiest snaps from over the years, including a mix of red carpet appearances and crazy-hot magazine editorials.

Moldy sheetrock in basement - how to dispose?
We found uninstalled sheetrock leaned up against an exterior door in our basement that had gotten mold between the sheetrock sheets. I carried it outside of the house carefully, and now it is leaning against an outside fence outside our house waiting for me to figure out what to do with it. It got rained on this weekend so hopefully dissipated some of the mold. But I have no idea if this mold is toxic or not and finding out will cost hundreds of dollars when I'm thinking we just dispose of it. Is this right? Can we just put sheetrock out with the trash, even if it doesn't fit into the garbage and even if it has 12"x12" sections that are clearly discolored? (It is mostly grey and black mold).
And I wonder if this means our cellar has potential air quality or other mold issues. My sense is that it was contained but some of the floor under where the sheetrock was has black soot (the floor is cement painted grey- I have no idea why the prior owners painted the cement as paint won't stick to floor cement so it is peeling and yucky). I have an environmental firm I can call but figured to ask online first.
Your city location poses a problem. The rain has ruined the drywall. It may only have been mildewed and could have been washed and installed- but not now. Fungus spores are EVERYWHERE-- fact of life. If I was educated, I would say they are omnipresent. They do not grow at 50% humidity or less. So even new sheets will soon mildew in damp environments.
The EPA has insane rules about the disposal. Gypsum is an excellent soil conditioner and I just break it up and scatter it in my fields around my house in this rural area. The EPA says that paper must be removed first. It biodegrades here and also conditions the soil.
"I carried it outside of the house carefully, and now it is leaning against an outside fence outside our house waiting for me to figure out what to do with it. It got rained on this weekend so hopefully dissipated some of the mold."
We understood this the first time.

No. Water is what mould needs to thrive!
Businesses in NYC must recycle drywall. It looks like residents can put it aside in bags as construction waste. Call 311 to be sure.
Interestingly, some municipalities, such as Toronto, Canada, provide a few convenient locations for small dropoffs such as yours, where the materials are then recycled.
As for the dangers, not likely unless someone has special environmental sensitivities.

the drywall is now OUTSIDE, not in our basement, so getting rained on is kind of irrelevant to our interior at this point, and I've confirmed that NYC doesn't have special requirements for disposing of drywall, even with some mold growing on it (go figure), so off it will go

Good cookware on a budget?
[cross-posting from the 'Cooking' forum]
I bought a Kitchen Aid stockpot w/steamer insert not long ago at a local warehouse store; got it for a great price. It's big, 8-quart size, and I love using it for lots of things -- soups, stews, chili, boiling large quantities of most anything. And I really like to steam broccoli and other veggies in it.
The bottom is aluminum encapsulated with stainless steel, and the pot and steamer are also stainless steel. It cooks like a dream. Heat conduction is so awesome, a full pot of water boils in less than 5 minutes! And it sits absolutely flat on my smooth cooktop.
I would really like to have a set of cookware just like it, including a few medium and large saucepans, at least one saute' pan, and a 12-inch frying pan (which I realize I may have to buy separately).
I've been searching high and low online, at the KA website, at different store websites -- Kohl's, Sears, J.C. Penney, Macy's, etc. But I cannot seem to find a set like my stockpot.
Does anyone have a suggestion? I cannot spend a fortune. $150 - $200 would be the very most I would want to spend, and of course I'd love to spend less if I can.
Still haven't decided yet?!?
I have 2 sets of tri-ply stainless steel plus various cast iron cookwares (plain and enameled) that I use for non-stick purposes.
One of my SS set is Calphalon and the other one is Concord/Leisureman (a German company). Both of these sets are made in China but still of good quality. My exact Concord 10-piece set is no longer available online. I got it through eBay which was a little cheaper than at Overstock.com. However, Overstock.com has a new similar 10-piece set at your price range, (link below). I believe the price has been reduced also.
Each piece of the Concord, as also the Calphalon, is made of one whole piece of the tri-ply stainless steel material. In other words, it cooks more evenly. The heat distributes and maintains not only at the bottom but at the sides as well. These cookware is also heat conducting in case that's what type of stovetop you have.
The only thing with this set is that it has a 10-inch covered saute/fry pan instead of 12-inch which you can purchase separately as you've realized already. I like this saute/fry pan better than the more traditional frying pan. Just recently, I made some meat spaghetti sauce. After I sauteed the meat, I added the tomato sauce into the pan. It worked great since it is deeper than the traditional frying pan. The lid that comes with it, allowed me to simmer food.
While you're at the link below, you may want to read my reviews (entity). It has more information on how to use and clean stainless steel cookware.
Hope this helps your decision.

Much of the opposition during the review meeting chaired by Deputy Commissioner A.B. Ibrahim, stemmed from "bitter experiences" from the petrol pipeline that was laid there by HPCL/Petronet in 2001.
Even after promises of higher compensation and better restoration of land, residents of Mangalore taluk whose land falls under the proposed Mangalore-Bangalore gas pipeline have expressed opposition to the project.
Much of the opposition during the review meeting chaired by Deputy Commissioner A.B. Ibrahim here on Saturday, stemmed from "bitter experiences" from the petrol pipeline that was laid there by HPCL/Petronet in 2001. The new-proposed Rs. 660-crore LPG pipeline – from Mangalore to Bangalore – runs parallel to this.
Kishore Rao, from Kandawara village, Gurupura, said the compensation offered was "too low"; while, Sheikh Sharif, from Kenjar village, said the land with the pipeline was a white elephant as no buyer would be interested in it.
As the land will be temporarily acquired under the Petroleum and Minerals Pipeline (Right of User in Land) Act, 1962 – that is, and after the laying of the underground pipe, the land will be handed back – the land losers are given just around 10 per cent of the guidance value.Low compensation
Even though Special Land Acquisition officer Krishna Murthy said the guidance value was being increased four times to ensure higher compensation, the amount works to a little more than Rs. 4,000 per cent. "The market value is around Rs. 25,000 per cent. We demand at least Rs. 22,500 as compensation," said Mr. Rao.
He said after the laying of the pipe, the land returned was of "no use". "The top soil is completely eroded, while the soil is full of rocks that have been blasted through. There cannot be cultivation on this land," he said. He added that as the work is given to a contractor, who sub-contracts it further, the original plans are not implemented.
The land-losers were sceptical of assurances by HPCL that the "new" method of laying pipes involved restoring the top soil intact. "For two years after the project, HPCL will compensate for lowering agricultural yields on the land acquired," said an official, who claimed of greater supervision of work in this project.
Unlike the last project, the contractor will get money only after residents have given their no objection certificate, said the HPCL official.
There was stringent opposition at a similar meeting conducted on Saturday at Neriya in Belthangady taluk, where 7.12 acres is to be acquired for a pump house.

I brewed something similar to Fullers London Brown Porter a while ago and really love the taste of it. Today I was reading the BJCP descriptions of Brown Porters and noticed that historically they may have used Brett:
From BJCP 12A:
"Comments: Differs from a robust porter in that it usually has softer, sweeter and more caramelly flavors, lower gravities, and usually less alcohol. More substance and roast than a brown ale. Higher in gravity than a dark mild. Some versions are fermented with lager yeast. Balance tends toward malt more than hops. Usually has an "English" character. Historical versions with Brettanomyces, sourness, or smokiness should be entered in the Specialty Beer category (23). "
Has anyone tried this style with Brett, and what Brett did you use? What flavors did you get, and did it get sour?
I'd like to try a 10 gal batch of the brown porter this winter and split them into 2 - 5 gal batches. I'd ferment them both with WLP002 (I love that yeast). Then I'd try making my first Brett beer by adding Brett to 1 of the batches and aging it for a while.
Is there any info out there on how brown porters were made historically, and how the Brett was used?JAN 16 2012 EDIT:
To make it easier to find, here's the recipe I ended up using for this brew. I kegged 5 gal of it after fermentation was complete, and the other 5 gal is in a glass carboy with Brett C where it will remain there for a few more months. The actual SG for me was 1.061 and the FG was 1.017 (I got higher than expected efficiency). Considering the higher gravity and ABV I had and the roasty, coffee finish I'm tasting I think this probably would fall into the Robust porter class instead of a Brown porter.
11 gal 80% Eff.
IBUs 36
17 lbs Maris Otter (Muntons) (3.5 SRM) Grain 5 81.0 %
3 lbs Brown Malt - Home Oven Toasted maris otter (375 degrees in oven for 45 minutes) (65.0 SRM) Grain 6 14.3 %
1 lbs Black Patent(Muntons) (500.0 SRM) Grain 7 4.8 %
3.00 oz Goldings, East Kent [5.90 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 8 26.7 IBUs
2.00 oz Goldings, East Kent [5.90 %] - Boil 15.0 min Hop 9 8.8 IBUs
1.0 pkg London Ale III (Wyeast Labs #1318) [124.21 ml] Yeast 12 -
1.0 pkg Brettanomyces Claussenii (White Labs #WLP645) [50.28 ml] [Add to Secondary]
Mash temp 154
Ferment at 68
Add Brett to 5 gal in secondary
Here's what the brew looks like - it's a tasty one. The London Ale III yeast left a pleasant, full bodied brew with smooth and a slightly dry coffee finish comes from the black patent. I plan to enter into a March competition, so I'll report back on the results:
I've never done a porter with brett, but considering how often I brew brown porters, this is definitely something I need to do ASAP.
There is surprisingly a good bit of info on historical porter recipes out there, thanks to ron (Shut up about Barclay Perkins) but I've haven't read much about how the brett interacted with the beer, if they wanted the brett character, how long it aged, and so forth. I would assume the brett of choice here would be Brett C, as it seems to have been the type found in aged English beers.
If you don't mind, I'll do some more research and post back here what I've found or how I'll approach this. This sounds like a fun project.
Ok, I'm pretty much going all in with this. I'll be to be making my own fire kilned brown malt this weekend - something I've wanted to do for a while now - and I've come across a few recipes that might be good for this type of thing. Something with Pale, brown, and black malt. Approaching the london-type vatted porters of the early/mid 1800's.
This is what I made previously, but I'd like to replace the Briess malts with some true English crystal and chocolate malts for the next batch.
Let me know what recipe you go with - I may copy you when I try this.
5.5 gal
IBUs 33
7 lbs Pale Ale (Crisp) (4.0 SRM) Grain 5 72.3 %
1 lbs Brown Malt (Crisp) (65.0 SRM) Grain 6 10.3 %
14.0 oz Caramel Malt - 60L (Briess) (60.0 SRM) Grain 7 9.0 %
12.0 oz Chocolate Organic (Briess) (350.0 SRM) Grain 8 7.7 %
1.75 oz Fuggles [4.00 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 10 24.2 IBUs
1.25 oz Fuggles [4.00 %] - Boil 15.0 min Hop 11 8.6 IBUs
1.0 pkg English Ale (White Labs #WLP002) [1500.00 ml] Yeast
Mash at 148
Pitch at 64, raise to 68 until fermentation is done, drop to 64 for a few days and then cold crash and keg
Very cool. I used a bunch more brown malt when I brewed a historic porter a few weeks back - sample tasted great. I didn't use any crystal (was told on this site it wasn't a big deal).
Subscribed to this thread to find out how it goes!
Geography in a Glass:http://beergeography.blogspot.com/
Recipes look good. I was thinking over the mash temps today and I still haven't settled on one or another. I like the idea of mashing high to leave some sugars for the brett, but I don't want to leave so much that the brett goes crazy and dries out the beer. In the 11-11-11 brew I'm pretty sure the brett we used was claussenii and it did take my FG of 1.018 down to 1.007 in the secondary. A bit too far for what I was looking for. I'd really like this beer to have some residual sweetness.
Also, I'll be going historical with my batch as I'd really like to try and make something that resembled the vatted porters of the time. The grist will look something like 80% pale (probably golden promise) 15-17% brown malt, and 3% black malt. I'll be kilning my brown malt over a hornbeam fire in a close approximation to how they made the malt back in the day. From what I have been reading, the brown malt around this time (1810-30's) was basically a somewhat smokey, charred malt that had a very unique flavor. Modern brown malt (which I love using) is supposedly just lightly roasted and quite different.
I've also been considering my yeast choices and I've narrowed it down to wy1968 and wy1318. I like the fullers strain, though I'm not to sure how the yeast will hold up with prolonged aging and how the esters will mix with the brett. I'm leaning more towards the 1318 as it is sufficiently malty and I think the natural yeast sweetness will hold up well to the brett character/acidity.
Looking forward to brewing this one!
can you throw out a recipe for extract with grain for me please....

The True Jesus of the Gospels - Part 3
Commentary by Father Raniero Cantalamessa
VATICAN CITY, MAY 17, 2007 (Zenit) - Here is a translation of the Italian-language commentary by Capuchin Father Raniero Cantalamessa, preacher of the Pontifical Household, on the book "Inchiesta su Ges�" (An Investigation on Jesus) by Corrado Augias and Mauro Pesce.
Parts 1 and Part 2 appeared Tuesday and Wednesday on Catholic Online.
* * *
5. Who is responsible for his death: the Sanhedrin, Pilate, or both?
The chapter of Corrado Augias' and Mauro Pesce's book on the trial and condemnation of Christ deserves a special discussion. The central thesis is not new; it began to be circulated after the tragedy of the Shoah and it was adopted by those who in the '60s and '70s proposed the thesis of Jesus who was a Zealot and a revolutionary.
On this view, the responsibility for Christ's death falls principally, indeed exclusively, on the shoulders of Pilate and the Roman administration, which indicates that the motive of Christ's condemnation was more political than religious. The Gospels acquitted Pilate and accused the Jewish leaders so as to pacify the Roman authorities in their regard and make friends with them.
This thesis was born from a just concern that today all of us share: To cut off at the root every pretext for anti-Semitism, which has procured for the Jewish people much evil at the hands of Christians. But the gravest mistake that can be made for the sake of a just cause is to defend it with erroneous arguments.
The struggle against anti-Semitism should be put on a firmer basis than that of a questionable (and questioned) interpretation of the Passion narratives. The innocence of the Jewish people, as such, of responsibility for the death of Christ rests on a biblical certainty that Christians have in common with Jews, but which, unfortunately, for many centuries has been strangely forgotten: "Only the one who sins shall die. The son shall not be charged with the guilt of his father, nor shall the father be charged with the guilt of his son" (Ezekiel 18:20). The doctrine of the Church knows only one sin that is transmitted by heredity from father to son, original sin, no other.
With this rejection of all anti-Semitism in place I would like to explain why the thesis about the complete innocence of the Jewish authorities of Christ's death and the essentially political nature of this death cannot be accepted. Paul, in the earliest of his letters, written around the year 50, gives the same fundamental account of Christ's death as the Gospels. He says that "the Jews have put Jesus to death" (1 Thessalonians 2:15), and he must have been better informed than we moderns about what took place in Jerusalem shortly before his arrival in the city, having once approved and "doggedly" defended the condemnation of the Nazarene.
During this earliest phase Christianity considered itself to be directed principally to Israel; converted Jews made up the majority membership in those communities in which the first oral traditions that came together later in the Gospels were formed; Matthew, as Augias and Pesce note, is concerned to show that Jesus came to fulfill, not abolish, the law. If there had been an apologetic worry, it would have been to present the condemnation of Jesus as the work of the pagans rather than the Jewish authorities with the scope of reassuring the Jews of Palestine and the Diaspora about the Christians.
On the other hand, when Mark, and certainly the other Evangelists, write their Gospel, Nero's persecution had already happened; this would have made Jesus appear to be the first victim of Roman power and the Christian martyrs as sharing in the fate of the Master.
We have a confirmation of this in the Book of Revelation, written after the persecution under Domitian, where Rome is the object of a ferocious invective ("Babylon," the "Beast," the "prostitute") because of the blood of the martyrs (cf. Revelations 13ff.). Pesce is right to perceive an "anti-Roman tendency" in John's Gospel (p. 156), but John is also the one who more accentuates the responsibility of the Sanhedrin and of the Jewish leaders in Christ's trial: How do we reconcile these things?
We cannot read the accounts of the Passion while ignoring everything that precedes them. The four Gospels attest, we can say on every page, to a growing religious contrast between Jesus and an influential group of Jews (Pharisees, doctors of the law, scribes) on the observance of the Sabbath, on the attitude toward sinners and publicans, on the clean and unclean.
Joachim Jeremias has shown the anti-Pharisaic motivation present in almost all of Jesus' parables. The Gospel data is ...

Article: Carotenoids in the egg yolks of collared flycatchers (Ficedula albicollis) in relation to parental quality, environmental factors and laying order[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Birds may influence the fitness of their offspring by transmission of different amounts of carotenoids to their eggs. Carotenoids play crucial roles in antioxidant protection and immune defence mechanisms, but they may be available to females in limiting amounts. Therefore, their allocation to the eggs may be influenced by the female's condition, age and environmental circumstances. Furthermore, the quality of the male parent, which affects the reproductive value of the offspring, may also influence this investment. In this correlational study, we investigated proximate and ultimate factors that may lead to variation in yolk lutein, zeaxanthin and β-carotene concentrations among and within clutches of a wild passerine, the collared flycatcher (Ficedula albicollis). We found that carotenoid concentration was positively associated with caterpillar supply at the time of egg formation, which suggests a proximate constraint of carotenoid availability on yolk composition. Neither female condition, body size, age, nor male plumage ornamentation, age and body size correlated with carotenoid deposition. Yolk β-carotene concentration was found to be positively linked to yolk testosterone concentration. We suggest that females allocated more β-carotene to their eggs to mitigate the potentially detrimental effects of elevated steroid concentration. We found that concentration of β-carotene increased with laying order. The possible function of this pattern may be to enhance the resistance to oxidative stress and pathogens of the disadvantaged last-hatching nestling, suggesting that collared flycatchers pursue a compensatory, "brood survival" strategy.Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology 01/2007; 61(4):541-550.

ABSTRACT: In this study we report on the preparation of 3'-oxolutein (1) by MnO2- and NiO2-oxidation of lutein (2) and the complete structure elucidation of this carotenoid by spectroscopic (UV/VIS, IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, CD, MS) methods and chemical reaction (NaBH4 reduction). The complete assignment of the 13CNMR spectrum of this carotenoid will be presented for the first time. A new carotenoid with alternative structure (8) is the major product of NiO2-oxidation of lutein (2) and partial spectroscopic characterization supports a structural assignment in which the β-end group has undergone extensive oxidation with concomitant ring opening.Letters in Organic Chemistry 09/2006; 3(10):723-734.

ABSTRACT: Carotenoids and fat-soluble vitamins play crucial roles in several physiological processes. Yolk carotenoid composition may be influenced by the bird's dietary intake and by the possible discrimination during carotenoid metabolism. Information regarding the pigment composition of passerine eggs is very limited. In the present 2-year study, we determined the carotenoid and vitamin concentrations and the percentage profile of carotenoid components in collared flycatcher (Ficedula albicollis) eggs. The major carotenoid was lutein in both years, followed by cis-lutein, zeaxanthin and beta-carotene as other significant components. Carotenoid concentration was higher in 2000 than in 2001. As caterpillar abundance and ambient temperature was lower in 2001 than in 2000, we suggest that the decreased availability of carotenoid-rich resources and the elevated antioxidant demand of the female restricted the carotenoid allocation to the eggs. Our study is the first to indicate that the concentration and profile of yolk carotenoids may considerably vary in the same wild bird population between breeding seasons with different environmental conditions. Compared to other birds, the yolk of this species was relatively rich in vitamins A and E. Vitamin E concentration was positively correlated with total carotenoid concentration, which may be beneficial for the nestlings as these antioxidants synergistically provide better protection.Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B Biochemistry and Molecular Biology 03/2006; 143(2):145-52.

ABSTRACT: Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy was used to distinguish between the isomeric (all-E)-configured 3′-epilutein (2) and 6′-epilutein (8) to establish the absolute configuration of epilutein samples of different (natural and semisynthetic) origin, including samples of 2 obtained from thermally processed sorrel. Thus, the CD data of lutein (1) and epilutein samples (2) were compared. Our results unambiguously confirmed the (3R,3′S,6′R)-configuration of all epilutein samples. Compound 2 was thoroughly characterized, and its 13C-NMR data are published herewith for the first time.Helvetica Chimica Acta 08/2004; 87(8):2159 - 2168.

ABSTRACT: In the present work, we show that in processed sorrel, the lutein (1) can convert to 3-epilutein (2) – 3-stereoisomer of lutein – by epimerisation reaction, as well as to anhydrolutein I (3) and II (4) by dehydration reaction. The newly formed anhydrolutein I (3) and II (4) were detected and identified by HPLC-DAD and HPLC-MS techniques and co-chromatography with authentic samples. The compounds 1 and 2 were also isolated from cooked sorrel by column chromatography and characterized by NMR spectroscopy.Chromatographia 06/2004; 60:S101-S105.

ABSTRACT: Lutein can convert to 3'-epilutein and anhydrolutein I in acidic medium as well as during different cooking methods. To our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of the epimerisation and dehydration of lutein in native samples. During different cooking processes the lutein content of the processed vegetables and fruits dramatically decreases, thus the bioavailability of processed plant food may also decrease. The occurrence of 3'-epilutein in processed food may be important regarding the application of synthetic lutein as food additive.Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 03/2004; 14(4):925-8.

ABSTRACT: The authors report on the HPLC investigation of the carotenoid composition of the steams, leaves, petals and pollens of Calendula officinalis L. In the petals and pollens, the main carotenoids were flavoxanthin and auroxanthin while the stem and leaves mostly contained lutein and beta-carotene. Five different herbal tea and two tinctures made from the flower of C. officinalis L. were also investigated and the carotenoid composition of the industrial products was compared to the starting material.Journal of Biochemical and Biophysical Methods 10/2002; 53(1-3):241-50.

ABSTRACT: FT-IR spectroscopy was applied to investigate 15 different carotenoids. The following compounds were examined: beta-carotenone (1); semi-beta-carotenon-epoxide (2); beta-apo-8'-carotenal (3); ethyl-beta-apo-8'-carotenoate (4); beta-citraurin (5); 5,6-Epoxy-beta-caroten-8'-al (6); beta-citraurin-epoxide (7); apo-10'-violaxanthal (8); persicaxanthin (9); capsylaldehyde (10); capsanthylal (11); retinol (12); retinal (13); retinoic acid (14); and bixin (15). Some characteristic functional groups (Cz.dbnd;C, Cz.dbnd;O, CHO, OH, etc.) were identified. We focused on the influence of conjugation of the keto-, aldehyde- and ester groups on the absorption of the Cz.dbnd;C bonds. This method is useful in the fast analysis of the biologically important carotenoids especially if there are small samples available.Journal of Biochemical and Biophysical Methods 10/2002; 53(1-3):251-8.

ABSTRACT: Water-soluble complexes of the dietary carotenoid psi,psi-carotene (lycopene 1) with cyclomaltohexaose (alpha-cyclodextrin, alphaCD) and cyclomaltoheptaose (beta-cyclodextrin, betaCD) have been prepared and characterized via multiangle light scattering (MALS), ionspray/electrospray ionization (IS/ESI) mass spectrometry (MS) and tandem MS. MALS experiments point out that large aggregates of particles, on the nanometer-size scale, are present in water, with meaningful differences in the shape of the alphaCD/1 aggregates with respect to betaCD/1 analogues. The true 1:1 alphaCD/1 inclusion complex has been observed by IS/ESIMS and confirmed by tandem MS. The structure of CD/1 aggregations in water is proposed which are consistent with the combined MALS and MS experimental results.Carbohydrate Research 07/2002; 337(12):1129-36. · 1.97 Impact Factor

- Allow the tea to steep as desired.
- Pressing the plunger pushes the tea leaves below the infusion holes and cuts off access between the water and the tea leaves, completely stopping the brewing process.
- With this press-pot method, the infuser does not need to be removed in order to prevent bitter over-brewing.
- If a second pot is desired, simply lift plunger and add hot water to re-use tea leaves.
- Tea bags may also be used instead of loose leaves.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — More than five months after Oregon's botched health-insurance exchange failed to go live, concern is mounting for another, less visible state IT project that was built in conjunction with the exchange, using the same technology.
APNewsBreak: Oregon to review another IT project
Officials say they are about to launch a formal review of the so-called modernization program, a multimillion-dollar Department of Human Services project meant to improve online access to public benefits, to see if it hides serious flaws similar to those of the Cover Oregon exchange.
The exchange was once a part of modernization, and both projects were designed by the same technology contractor, Oracle Corp., on a foundation of the same Oracle software and hardware.
The state has since blamed Oracle for Cover Oregon's fiasco, including critical issues with its website coding. What's not known is whether the Department of Human Services project may have similar problems. Independent analysts had raised red flags about that project before it was put on hold last fall, but it has never been fully tested.
"When I hear IT and Oracle, I think we have to be careful," said state Sen. Alan Bates, a Medford Democrat who co-chairs the committee overseeing the human services budget. "Oracle has not been a good partner, and I think everybody understands that."
For over five years, Oregon has worked to replace its outdated internal computer systems for the Department of Human Services and the Oregon Health Authority. Modernization's grand vision, supported by federal dollars and state bonds, was to build a one-stop-shop for people seeking food stamps, cash assistance for families with children, Medicaid and other benefits.
When the federal government gave Oregon $48 million in February 2011 to start building a health insurance exchange, that project was tacked on to the modernization work.
Because overall modernization was originally envisioned as one multiservice portal — an online house with many doors — the state chose to purchase an array of Oracle products and hired Oracle to do all the development work. There was no separate bidding process for the exchange, and a lot of the technology was shared among the projects.
Modernization, not including the health exchange, was projected to cost more than $140 million in federal and state money, according to records obtained by The Associated Press. Thus far, the Department of Human Services has spent about half of that sum on the project, said Jim Scherzinger, the department's chief operating officer.
The spending includes $48 million for Oracle products and development for modernization, records show. The figure does not include the more than $130 million paid to Oracle by Cover Oregon, which eventually split off from modernization to install its own software environment and become an independent platform.
Modernization was eventually scaled back to focus on food-stamp benefits, with the goal of later adding other programs and features. It was slated to launch in October alongside the exchange, records show.
