Baked brie, figs and Moscato | #appetizer #recipe
Brie and Figs paired with Moscato www.TheWinePrincess.com #wine #cheese #food
Ingredients 1 tablespoon orange zest ¼ cup fig jam 2 tablespoons grated piloncillo (brown sugar can be substituted) 1 (8-ounce) Brie cheese round 4 fresh figs cut in half 1 box plain water crackers 1 bottle of Moscato white wine from Columbia Crest Directions Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Cut the brie in half, creating two rounds. Mix orange zest, fig jam, and piloncillo, and spread onto one of the brie rounds. Carefully place the other brie half on top. Place the brie on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Heat in the oven for about 10-15 minutes. Don't over cook the brie or you will have a gooey hot mess. This step is optional: While the brie is baking, place figs on a hot comal (griddle) for a quick sear. This gives them a warm smokiness and goes oh so well with the warm brie. Place the baked brie on a cutting board and serve with water crackers, sliced figs, and a chilled glass of Moscato wine. Salud!

Mmmm... this inspires me to think of so many different versions of spring rolls I can try. Tender curried chicken & creamy avocado with crisp romaine lettuce is the first thing that jumps to mind. Baby spinach, munster cheese, and sauteed portabella mushrooms with a tomato basil dipping sauce. Oh, and I would love to try making a version of my Peanut Pad Thai as a spring roll. Mmm, yum.

How often have you almost stepped in — or actually stepped in —
dog poop that was left on the ground? Pet waste that isn't properly disposed of isn't just a hazard waiting to happen to your favorite pair of shoes, and it doesn't just disappear (unless you have a friendly neighborhood pet waste disposal person).
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers pet waste a "nonpoint source pollutant." This type of pollution is caused by runoff from rainfall or snowmelt moving over the ground, picking up the pollutant and depositing it into natural bodies of water and underground drinking water. Herbicides and insecticides are found in the same category.
When pet waste is left on the ground, it can have a devastating impact on
lawns and, more important, on the larger environment as well. It also poses a threat to people and other animals.
Two of the greatest dangers of unattended pet waste are the parasites and bacteria found inside it.
Roundworm eggs last for years, and [because of this], dog waste should not go in compost that will end up as vegetable garden fertilizers.
Hookworms are a concern in sandy areas where people are on the beach or barefoot in parks and playgrounds since these worms will migrate under the skin, causing scars," says Steve B. Thompson, DVM, DABVP, clinical associate professor at
Purdue University's College of Veterinary Medicine and director of the Pet Wellness Clinic at Purdue. "These two worms are the primary reason for 'pooper scooper' laws at beaches and public parks."
Other bacteria and
parasites that can survive in dog and
cat waste include
Giardia and
Escherichia coli (
E. coli)
Cat feces can also contain
Toxoplasma gondii, which can lead to the disease
If waste is not picked up, people and pets are at risk for being infected or reinfected with these parasites. Pets who walk through your house after being in an area with unattended waste can also increase your exposure to these dangers because they may track that waste into your home. For the same reason, children who play outside in areas frequented by dogs or
cats should always wash their hands afterward, just in case they came in contact with pet feces.
Although waste that gets into the water can spread these parasites and bacteria, waste's high concentrations of nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus can also harm aquatic ecosystems. It can contribute to the nutrient pollution that causes
algal blooms, which kill aquatic life and plants and can make people and pets sick.
According to the
EPA, "2 to 3 days of droppings from a population of 100
dogs contribute enough bacteria, nitrogen and phosphorus to temporarily close a bay to swimming and shellfishing."
While some people think pet waste acts as a good fertilizer because of these nutrients, leaving waste on your lawn can have the opposite effect, causing "lawn burn" and killing grass.

Venture out of the dry comfort of your house for a weekend of steam powered distraction!
Your emotions today are like a piece of bacon dropped into a hot frying pan: They`re twitching, popping and sizzling. You`re stuck in this spot for now, but there`s a lot you can do to distract yourself. Keep busy physically. Active hands and plenty of movement will counteract your emotional state and could even mute the effect enough to give you long stretches of peace. By the time you get a chance to share your feelings, you`ll have a better handle on them.
An elaborate dinner party involves a considerable amount of work but is a deeply satisfying way to share quality time with friends and family. Go all out on your preparations. You may even want to set this event up as a formal occasion or give it a special theme. The creativity you demonstrate in designing the menu and table settings, preparing the food and serving it with flair will stimulate other ideas for equally enjoyable ways to express your artistry.
You`ve got money on your mind today and nothing can dislodge your financial concerns from their place of prominence. Worrying over this is going on primarily inside your head, but family members will be able to tell from the set of your mouth and the occasional snappish response that something`s bugging you. Woe to the child or spouse who asks for extra money, especially if you consider the purchase frivolous and ill timed. Are you being too controlling?
A strong sense of anticipation follows you all day. It`s as if you`re on the brink of a major discovery or significant personal breakthrough. Nothing seems impossible right now, but at the same time you may be feeling somewhat emotional with a heightened sense of the importance of your nearest and dearest to your life. Remember that hugging your child for no obvious reason or whispering endearments to your partner are good practices for everyday, and not just when you are feeling so blessed.
It`s not all that often that you find yourself cast in the role of mediator, but today your temperament is just right for handling a touchy situation. With careful words and a friendly smile, you can make inroads where others cannot because the combatants appreciate that you are trying to be fair. Keep trying even if you secretly think you`re in over your head. Good results will crown your efforts.
Everybody decides to visit you, so forget about trying to impose any structure on your day. So what if dust bunnies fly across the floor every time someone walks through the living room or the newspapers are piled up in three-foot stacks beside the couch? No one`s here to critique your housekeeping; they`re here to spend a few hours in friendship and conversation. Pull out the beverages, throw together a plate of quick snacks and relax and enjoy a sociable afternoon.
You know that long list of stuff you wanted to do today? Forget about it. One thing after another comes up to thwart your plans. You`ll be miles ahead if you surrender early on to spontaneity. Whether chauffeuring the kids all over town to activities you didn`t know about, picking up a parent whose car won`t start or handling another half-dozen impromptu requests, keep your humor and your family will cherish you even more for your laid-back approach.
"You could luck out and find a fabulous sale today. Something you`ve had your eye on for a while could be marked down so drastically that you can buy it without feeling the least bit guilty. It`s fun to treat yourself to something really special now and again, but guard against the temptation to indulge even more. You`ll find it much harder to justify additional purchases. Something different for lunch sounds good.
Problem-solving is not on the agenda in your household today. Everybody seems to be speaking a different language, so communication could be all but impossible. You won`t be able to agree on how to spend the afternoon, either. Some will be eager for physical activity, while others think the movie theater is a perfect destination. Split up into camps according to your inclinations and then share your experiences over dinner.
You could be right in the middle of an interesting story in the morning paper when a totally unexpected and out-of-the-blue verbal spat practically knocks you off the couch. Responding with anger and irritation is a sure way to escalate the conflict. If you listen, though, you will soon discover that what you initially perceived as an attack is simply another`s way of opening a dialogue about a situation that has very little to do with you. You`d rather read the paper, but compassion will carry the day.
You really can`t put off a home repair much longer. You may as well dig out the tools and tackle it today, whether it`s a dripping faucet, a loose floorboard, a running toilet or some other minor annoyance. Sure, you`d much rather spend the afternoon lazing around or taking a drive, but look on this exercise as a challenge to your tendency for procrastination. Be truthful with yourself: Have you been challenging yourself enough lately?
You and your special someone are as inseparable as peanut butter and jelly today and just as sweet. Instead of spending the afternoon doing the same kinds of things that you usually do, suggest something completely different. Maybe you`ll want to go hang-gliding, take a horse and buggy ride through the historic section of your city or pack a wine-and-cheese picnic for a romantic spot by the river. Maybe you`ll want to do all of those things. The point is to think creatively.

If you do not currently own a pet and are getting the itch to own one, I encourage you to consider a few things first.
I already owned my dog, Riggs (aka: Riggles/Rigsy) when starting the program, but pets can be a large responsibility. So consider how much time you will be able to devote to your pet during the program, especially if it is a dog. If you're considering a dog, will you have to train them? Will they be crated or not? What are the traits of the specific breed (i.e. are they prone to anxiety, are they high energy, etc.)? The answers to these questions will impact how much time you will need to devote to them and ensuring they have healthy outlets to exert their energy. If you plan on balancing work, school (classes, studying, group work) and a social life (including events before or after class), are you okay with knowing that you may have to rearrange your schedule sometimes to meet the needs of your pet? In addition, you will need to consider whether your student budget can cover the cost of vaccinations, vet visits, food, and toys.
On the flipside, I completely understand wanting to come home to a cuddly, fluff ball. They can become quite the companion too. Heck, Riggs is like a son to me (yes, I just admitted that). A pet can bring life to a home even when you have no energy left after work or school. In addition, having to walk a dog can be surprisingly relaxing. I have come to use the walks as refreshing study breaks to clear my head and relax. One of the many benefits to living in Columbus is that it is really pet friendly. There are quite a few dog parks and scenic areas to walk your dog. There are also several places to board your pet if needed, and several daycares (If you live near Grandview or Upper Arlington…I highly recommend Puptown Lounge!). Some extra perks are that there are several food establishments that are pet friendly. DQ has "pup-cups" (Vanilla Ice Cream w/ a Milkbone) for dogs AND if you bring your dog to Graeter's on the first Thursday of the month during the spring/summer months they will give you a FREE Frosty Paw Treat (dog ice cream)! Needless to say, but Columbus is pretty great!
Between work and school, I definitely find myself rearranging my schedule to ensure I am able to meet the needs of Riggs. This means that sometimes I can't go out after class or I can't just relax on campus between my job and class. In my opinion, it's totally worth it. However, not all people would agree. So consider what is practical and feasible to maintain while pursuing the MHRM program.

Congress Joins Weinstein's 'Bully' Rating Fight With MPAA as 20 Members Sign Teen's Petition
A powerful force has waded into what is becoming an ugly Hollywood brawl.
The advocacy tools website Change.org announced on Monday that 20 members of Congress have signed on to a petition asking the MPAA to lower the R rating it gave to director Lee Hirsch's documentary Bully.
"We are writing to express our sincere disappointment in the MPAA's decision to issue an 'R' rating for the soon-to-be-released documentary Bully," the bipartisan group, led by Rep. Mike Honda (D-CA) wrote in a letter accompanying the press announcement. "This important project shows the real life anguish of many teenagers in this country who are tormented, harassed, and bullied by their peers. This truth should be shared with as wide an audience as is appropriate and possible. We believe an R-rating excludes the very audience for whom this film is desperately important."
PHOTOS: Oscars 2012 Executives Red Carpet Arrivals
The petition, started by high school student Katy Butler, has garnered over 275,000 signatures, helped by public support from Ellen Degeneres and New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees. Its uplifting grassroots message has worked in tandem with a harder approach from the film's executive producer, Harvey Weinstein, who has threatened to pull out from the ratings board over the matter.
The film has been given a PG rating in Canada, but the MPAA has held firm, while the National Association of Theater Owners have threatened to treat Weinstein's future releases as it would NC-17 films if he leaves the ratings board.
Monday's announcement comes days ahead of what will be a short ceasefire in the battle, when Weinstein and the MPAA co-host a showing of the film for Washington DC-area principals and educators. After the screening, Weinstein and MPAA Chairman Chris Dodd will participte alongside educators and childhood health advocates on a panel about the film's message.

I'm writing a number of batch jobs with Spring Batch which mostly do export/import from/to database. The Spring Batch job repository database and target database(from/to which I'm read/write data) are located on different machines.
My question is should I use XA transactions in this configuration?
I wondering about the scenario when at some point of time link to the job repository db brakes, will it potentially corrupt the data? Like this:
- Job started (write to job repository)
- Read/process/write in target db within transaction
- Link to job repository db brakes and job fails
And finally I have updated target db but job is failed so same data will be processed again upon the job restart.

The girlfriend quilt...
I mentioned in LindaOH's post that I was making a quilt for my son's girlfriend. I finished the binding last night, so all that's left is the label.
I used a basketweave pattern in a large size, and once again, I don't want to give it away, LOL.
Beautiful - she will love it! This looks like an easy pattern - I need to have some easy designs to keep on hand for when I need a quick quilt (like now).
Your choice of Batiks, the binding, and of course the quilting makes it very special. Very nice present.
Mary, for the binding-How wide did you cut each strip of the 2 different fabrics? I'm assuming you used your method of cutting/seaming straight grain strips before cutting on the bias to make french binding. Do you determine the spacing to keep the color spaces even when joining the tails?
Mary, the quilt is lovely. I was especially taken by your binding. I assumed it was just pieces sewn together on the diagonal as I do all my bindings, but Marsha's post makes me think otherwise. Can you explain the process, please. I also was thinking how precise your calculations must be for joining. Wonderful job!
Thanks all for the compliments!
Marsha, I'm sure there is some way to crunch the numbers and have it all work out - but I'm much too lazy to even attempt it. I've had it serendipitously work out occasionally, but it didn't for this quilt. The binding ends are joined with a straight seam at the center bottom, because diagonals didn't work out, and it left roughly the same amount of red showing.
In this case I used the same strip width (6.5") as I used in the blocks, mainly because they were already cut, LOL, and that was the absolute end of the red fabric.
Loisf, I use bias binding 98% of the time, but you could actually do it with straight of grain, joined as you suggest. But that's a whole lot more seams, and more waste.
I have some photos of how I do the binding. I lay the strips out, staggering them so I have very little waste.
Laying the strips out:
Trimming and cutting:
Thanks Mary - I looked very good to find where you joined the seams, and could not see it - good idea to use a straight seam to make it work. I was thinking of using this on my Goodbye Irene quilt, since I'm not sure I have enough of the inner border to use as the binding. Combining the the inner and outer border will solve the problem easily and add some interest - thanks!
I really like your quilt. If she doesn't like it......maybe she isn't the right girlfriend.......quote from Teresa - spoken only as a Mother of Son(s) can speak!!!!!hahahaha
Thanks Rebecca!
The large strips are cut 6.5", the white strips are cut 1.5". Then the strip sets are cut into 8.5" blocks, so they finish at 8". The inner white border is 1", and the outer border is 6".
I think the basketweave effect is much more pronounced with a smaller block and dark sashing, but I like this effect also.
This larger block really works better with the batiks.
I bought this same Batik at Mary Jo's as a wide backing in a hunter green, burgundy, dark gold - very intense warm color combo. I'm going to have leftovers - it would make up in this design for a nice fall quilt. Thanks!

When the BMW F15 X5 was released, it was a subtle refresh for an already stylish looking SUV. The stunning lines, aggressive looking body design and a range of BMW's latest design cues all made this an attractive and high selling vehicle. So with hundreds of thousands of X5 models on the road, how does one differentiate from the flock? The quick answer is: aftermarket parts. Thus, the owner of this BMW xDrive 35i decided to take his SUV to Wheels Boutique, for some aftermarket goodies and a set of custom ADV.1 Wheels.This BMW X5 has been equipped with a set ADV005 Track Spec CS wheels. These three-piece wheels come in sizes of 22×10.5 in the front and 22×12.5 in the rear. The finish on these is a combination of the Stainless Aluminum with a Clearcoat finish for the face of the wheels and Polished Aluminum with a Clearcoat for the lips. The result is a set of wheels that fits the vehicle well and doesn't warrant particularly pinpoint driving. This X5 is now perfect for those Miami roads, beach restaurants and ocean drives as well. The BMW xDrive 35i comes equipped with a 3.0 liter BMW TwinPower Turbo engine developing 300 horsepower. Enough to take this beast from 0-62 mph (0-100km/h) in just 6.1 seconds. For a rather heavy and large vehicle, the performance is impressive. The article Alpine White BMW X5 xDrive35i On ADV.1 Wheels by Wheels Boutique appeared first on BMW BLOG

After the launch of the BMW 2 Series Active Tourer, BMW announced a plug-in hybrid configuration to be released at a later. The BMW 223e SAT (acronym for Sport Active Tourer) is built under the internal name XB2149M0, using the same powertrain as the one in the BMW Concept Active Tourer Outdoor, a front wheel-drive platform with an electric motor powering the rear wheels. Combined power output of the gasoline and hybrid motor should be somewhere over 200 horsepower, allowing the hybrid to achieve some efficient, yet not breathtaking performance. BMW 223e SAT will also get the new ZHP 9-speed automatic transmission. The petrol engine in the car is the 3-cylinder 1.5 liter TwinPower turbo. The fuel consumption is said to be around 2.2 liter per 100 km and the CO2 emissions below 50g/km. In 100% electric mode, the 223e SAT should have a range between 30 and 35 kilometers.
Other specific details of the 2 Series Active Tourer are the roof wing that helps with aerodynamics and a "mysterious" metal box on the rear axle. The interior should be the same as conventionally-powered Active Tourer. The model will benefit from the latest technology from BMW: a revamped version of Connected Drive, LED headlights, Automatic air conditioning, control of charging process via mobile app and various driving modes. BMW will premiere the 2 Series Active Tourer eDrive at the 2015 Frankfurt Auto Show.

Is E46 M3 Convertible Better Than Mazda MX-5 And M235i?

With Mazda's announcement of a MX-5 Club Edition, I got to thinking about small, sporty convertibles. When it comes to sporty roadsters, nothing this side of a Porsche Boxter can really top the MX-5 in terms of driving enjoyment. The MX-5 also costs under $25,000 to start, so it's fantastic value as well. And then I got to thinking about the 2 Series, and I started to wonder whether or not I'd prefer it to an MX-5. That sounds odd, doesn't it? Preferring a Mazda to a BMW for a sports roadster car? Madness. Or maybe not. BMW still makes some of the best sports cars out there, no doubt. The 2 Series is an incredible machine, one filled with the sort of fizz-inducing character missing from so many cars lately. But at what cost? The cheapest convertible BMW currently makes is the 228i convertible, which starts $37,900, or nearly $13,000 more than the MX-5. Granted, the 228i has a far more powerful, turbocharged engine, a power folding roof and an 8-Speed auto. It's also nicer on the inside and better built. But the actual enjoyment had from both cars is far closer than that, with the Mazda possibly besting the 2er 'vert.
Another knock against the 228i 'vert is the gearbox. A sporty BMW convertible with no manual option? I can see that in the M4 convertible maybe, because that's a hardcore driving machine and the DCT improves performance. But in a 228i convertible with a 2.0 liter engine? Cmon, that's the picture perfect car for a row-your-own gearbox. Page one, chapter one of the sports car bible clearly states that all small, sporty, rear-wheel drive cars must come with a manual transmission available. There is a manual available in the lethal M235i convertible, however, the starting price of that tire-scorching car is, wait for it…$47,700! The 435i Coupe is cheaper than that to start.
BMW could learn a lot from little ole Mazda. Make the car as simple and pure as possible, give it a willing engine and a manual gearbox and it will live on in sports car history forever. I'm not saying that the 2 Series convertibles are bad cars, but they are a bit too expensive and complicated. Admittedly, BMW customers are used to having certain luxuries, like a power soft top and an automatic gearbox, but those things inflate the price to a level far too high for such a small car. I spec'd out a 228i convertible to how the average BMW customer would and it was nearly $50,000. If you have $50,000 to spend on a soft top sports car, the Porsche Boxter starts at $51,000. The 228i convertible may be a fantastic driving car, but is it as good as a Boxter? So how does the everyman, like you or I, get themselves into a small, sporty roadster with a manual gearbox without having to sell a child? If you need a brand new car, the answer is simple. The Mazda MX-5. But being BMWBLOG, I'm sure that's not the answer you wanted to hear, nor did I, frankly. So, if you're in the market for a soft top BMW sports car, look in your local classifieds and find an E46 M3 convertible.
The E46 M3 one of the best sports cars to ever grace tarmac. It had tons of power, a wonderful, high-revving engine, the joy of three-pedal shifting and some of the best handling you'll ever feel. It perfectly encapsulated the joys of an MX-5 but with more power, a better sound and better handling. Being able to drop the top might not make you look very manly, if you are indeed a man, but it'll give you an open-air driving experience like no other. Plus you'll be able to hear that glorious 3.2 liter inline-six even better. Finding one with low mileage is tough but they're out there. You might have to spend a pretty penny for one, but it'll be peanuts to the $50,000 of an M235i and it'll be better to drive as well. Just make sure to skip the SMG gearbox and get the manual.

The dark red Ruby Red II color is one of the extremely rare to find color on a BMW, and its beautiful red tone is certainly an eye catcher. This BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe with the Red Ruby II paint job was spotted at the BMW Park Lane in London. Along with the classy color, the M Sport Package gives the 4 Series Gran Coupe an exquisite and sporty look. The four-door coupe also sits on 19-inch double-spoke wheels, while inside the cabin has been garnished with Dakota Leather upholstery in Ivory White. The drive fits perfectly with the luxurious sporty look: Under the hood of the 435i Gran Coupe operates a 306 horsepower inline-six 3.0 liter engine, which brings the four-door coupe to 5.2 seconds from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h). The engine is mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission with shift paddles on the steering wheel, which ensure a benefit of 0.3 seconds compared to the manually shifted model.
An M Sport suspension with a firmer spring/damper set-up and more robust front and rear anti-roll bars is available as an option for the new BMW 4 Series Gran Coupe, and can also be ordered separately from the M Sport package. In the U.S., the MSRP for the 435i Gran Coupe is $46,750 while the BMW Individual colors retail for $5,000.

One of the most prestigious names in the automotive world is the Continental. Lincoln's famous sedan started life in 1939 and was an immediate success. The most famous model came in the '60s, which came with the iconic rear suicide doors. The Continental was owned by many famous people including Frank Sinatra and Elvis Presley. It even has a bit of a dark stain on its history, being the car that president John F. Kennedy was shot and killed in. When the eighth generation came out in the late '80s, it switched to front-wheel drive and was starting to lose its luster. After that, the Continental continued on a downward spiral until it was discontinued in its ninth generation, ending in 2002. Ever since then, Ford has been sprinkling rumors of a new Continental which was to get back to taking on the best luxury cars from England and Germany. These rumored Continentals never got past the concept phase, and eventually people started disregarding them, not believing Ford and Lincoln would ever make such a car again.
Turns out, FoMoCo proved once again that, I believe the phrase goes, "haters gonna hate", and just released images of the upcoming Lincoln Continental. The new Conti is a massive, imposing thing, with its massive wheels and wheel arches and upright grill. Bye, bye is the split-wing grille of current Lincolns as all new Lincolns will ditch the split-wing as well. Instead the Continental will use a much larger, deeper set mesh grille with a Lincoln badge big enough to be on a 90's rapper's chain. The headlights have LED "ice cubes" in them, that represent the Lincoln badge, which fade on as you approach with the smart-key. The beltline is high, which gives the Conti a tall, imposing look, and it follows to the rear which almost looks Audi-esque.
The rear has a squat to it that almost suggests Lincoln went back to its rear-wheel drive roots, but sadly that's not the case. The Continental will be based on the same CD4 platform, shared with the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ, so it will be front-wheel drive based and be available with all-wheel drive. The continued use of FWD in luxury cars by American brands (I'm look at you, Cadillac XTS) still baffles me, but I guess if Audi can pull it off, Lincoln can as well.
The Continental will use a 3.0 liter, turbocharged EcoBoost V6 under the hood, though no word on power or economy numbers. There will also be a 2.7 liter EcoBoost V6 available as the base engine. It's understandable to offer a smaller displacement engine as the base, but having a 3.0 liter V6 as the highest level engine in Ford's most luxurious car is a bit troubling. While it is true that Ford and Lincoln are looking to focus more on "quiet luxury" than performance, it's the silky smooth waves of torque from big V8s that everyone misses about American luxury cars. Hopefully there will be one down the line. While the exterior of the Conti is a bit underwhelming, as Lincoln says the car is about being quiet and not shouty, the interior is quite incredible actually. While not nearly as aesthetically pleasing to the eye as, say, a Mercedes S-Class or BMW 7 Series, the Continental's interior is nothing short of impressive. All of the sumptuous leather and chrome trim brings back memories of the American luxury cars of the '50s and '60s yet looks completely modern. Ford has taken out 50 patents for the seats alone. They feature 30-way adjustability with 11 air bladders in the cushions. The seats also have wings that can cradle passengers if they wish. It even has a champagne cooler and two flutes, like a Maybach. Admittedly, the ergonomics and aesthetics look a bit messy and convoluted, but it's bound to be a luxurious and comfortable environment.
Overall the Continental looks like it will be an interesting car in the luxury sedan segment. No word on pricing, but knowing Ford, it will probably be priced similar to the upcoming Cadillac CT6 and undercut the 7 Series, S Class, Jaguar XJ and Audi A8. At a lower price range and with the prestigious name, it isn't impossible for Ford and Lincoln to steal some sales away from the big German and English rivals. I just can't wait for the Matthew McConaughey commercials for it. Alright, alright.

The opening round of the 2015 MotoGP World Championship in Qatar marked the start of a 17th season as "Official Car of MotoGP" for BMW M. BMW has been involved in MotoGP since 1999 and provides the official fleet of vehicles. BMW M Division's commitment also incorporates many other activities, including the presentation of the coveted BMW M Award. As a long-term partner of MotoGP organiser Dorna Sports, BMW M Division is once again introducing a number of new features this season. These include a technical innovation: at the Qatar Grand Prix, at the "Losail International Circuit", the BMW M4 MotoGP Safety Car took to the track with innovative water injection for the first time. With this new technology, the engineers at BMW M Division have achieved a tangible boost in performance from the high-performance engine of the BMW M4 Coupé (431 bhp/317 kW in the production version, combined fuel consumption of 8.8-8.3 l/100 km, combined CO2 emissions of 204-194 g/km). This is due to the fact that water injection makes it possible to raise the upper performance limits, which have otherwise been restricted thermally. Following intense testing within the MotoGP World Championship, the water injection system will also be employed in a BMW M production model in the near future.
"Millions of fans around the world are captivated by MotoGP. Therefore, it provides us with an outstanding opportunity to present our brand, technology and products to an international audience that is enthusiastic about racing," said Frank van Meel, President of BMW M Division. "BMW M has always been synonymous with technological innovations, and we are delighted to be able to present the innovative water injection as another new highlight this year. When it comes to leading a field of high-performance racing prototypes safely in any conditions, technology gleaned from the world of motorsport and innovative ideas are indispensable. That is precisely why BMW M is the 'most powerful letter in the world'. The new water injection is just one example of this. The 2015 season marks the 17th year of BMW M as 'Official Car of MotoGP'. The successful cooperation with Dorna Sports has grown consistently over the years and is set to continue in the long term. In 2019 we will celebrate the 20th anniversary of BMW M in MotoGP. We are proud of this partnership, which spans decades and is extremely rare in international high-performance sport."
The new water injection sees the engineers make use of the water's physical effect during the vaporisation process to extract the energy required from the environmental medium. Water is injected into the intake module's collector as a fine spray, thus significantly cooling the exhaust air during vaporisation. This lowers the discharge temperature in the combustion changer and thus reduces the tendency for knocking. The turbo engine can thus be operated with a higher charging pressure and an earlier ignition point. The lower process temperatures also reduce the formation of hazardous substances, in particular nitrogen oxide (NOX). This way, the innovative technology increases performance and torque, while at the same time ensuring outstanding consumption and emission figures.
Another highlight of the MotoGP Safety Car fleet is the new BMW X5 M, which makes its debut as the Medical Car this season. With the new BMW X5 M (575 PS/423 kW; combined fuel consumption: 11.1 l/100 km; combined CO2 emissions: 258 g/km), BMW M Division is once again setting benchmarks in the sector for high-performance Sports Activity Vehicles (SAV) and Sports Activity Coupés (SAC). It combines the characteristic features of the successful BMW X family – exclusivity, robustness, agility and road capability – with the high-performance approach typical of M. As with all the vehicles in the Safety Car fleet, the BMW X5 M was prepared for its outings as MotoGP Medical Car in the BMW M factory. In total, the fleet of official MotoGP vehicles comprises six BMW M and M Performance models. As well as the BMW M4 Coupé, the BMW M3 and BMW M6 Gran Coupé are also employed as Safety Cars. A BMW M5 is available for the Safety Officer, while the new BMW X5 M and the BMW M550d xDrive Touring are used as Medical Cars. BMW Motorrad also provides two BMW S 1000 RRs as Safety Bikes. You can find more information on the 2015 Safety Car fleet online at: www.bmw-m-safetycar.com Among the many other activities that make up BMW M Division's commitment to MotoGP is the BMW M Award, which will be presented for the 13th time in 2015. This award is presented at the end of each MotoGP season to the rider with the best overall result in qualifying. The winner receives an exclusive BMW M automobile. The BMW M MotoGP Experience sees guests of BMW M Division experience an unforgettable race weekend. They are given an exclusive glimpse behind the scenes by BMW M MotoGP experts Loris Capirossi and Alex Hofmann. Furthermore, BMW M Division also presents its latest high-performance automobiles and other models of car from the various brands within the BMW Group on Grand Prix weekends.

BMW releases a video highlighting the charging process of the new BMW X5 xDrive40e. The first plug-in hybrid production car from the BMW core brand is a Sports Activity Vehicle. Permanent all-wheel drive and the BMW EfficientDynamics eDrive technology endow the BMW X5 xDrive40e with sportiness and supreme poise on the one hand and outstanding efficiency on the other. With a total system output of 230 kW/313 hp generated by a four-cylinder petrol engine with BMW TwinPower Turbo technology and a synchronous electric motor, the BMW X5 xDrive40e achieves a combined fuel consumption of 3.4 – 3.3 liters per 100 kilometers (83.1 – 85.6 mpg imp) and a combined electricity consumption of 15.4 – 15.3 kWh over the same distance. CO2 emissions come in at 78 – 77 grams per kilometer (figures according to EU test cycle for plug-in hybrid vehicles, may vary depending on the tire format specified).
The Lithium-ion high-voltage battery has 96 cells and a capacity of 9.0 kWh. The electric motor produces 113 horsepower. This allows the luxury X5 hybrid model to deliver a remarkable performance. The car accelerates from 0-62mph (0-100km/h) in 6.8 seconds. This is accomplished thanks to a max torque of 184lb-ft available from 0 rpm from the electric motor. Top speed is electronically limited to 130mph (210mph) or 75mph (130km/h) when running on electric power. According to Gerhard Thiel, Project Leader, the X5 hybrid can be recharged at a standard household outlet in less than four hours; he doesn't specify if that's a US outlet or European.

have 4 pans so far--
I have been in desperate crazy need of new pans and decided that since they are to be new that I want USA or other than China made. In the last few days I have purchased with coupons/coupons/store deals, so have had good prices, a 3.5 qt sauce pan, a 3.5 quart soup pot (have used both pots and they are not redundant), a 12" and a 10" non-stick fry pans. Next I want a 5 qt. Le Ceuseat (sp?) stockpot and a 10 (12?)"?? Chantel pan--and cannot find this last one on-line but saw it in the store--it is enamel inside and $$$ but very nice
From eGullet's Understanding Stovetop Cookware:
Enameled Carbon Steel
- Thin carbon steel with a coating of enamel inside and out to render the pan nonreactive.
- Extremely prone to buckle and warp, which often causes the enamel to chip. Relatively poor thermal conductivity and heat retention result in hot spots and inferior browning capabilities.
- Light.
- Extremely inexpensive.
- Common uses: Sauce pans, steamers, coffee pots. Cookware of this design is only useful for boiling water.
- Representative manufacturers: These pans are not particularly associated with any manufacturers, and they are all more or less the same.
Short answer: Pass on the Chantal, you can do better.
Chantal makes a brand new, very expensive, copper infused non-stick that allows you to use metal utensils and wash in dishwasher. However, this is all according to a salesperson who dragged me over to see a pan. I have absolutely no idea if this is all true. I would be surprised if eGullet has experience with it.
"I would be surprised if eGullet has experience with it."
Actually, the author of the eGullet article dismisses all of the current copper clad cookware, whether it's from All-Clad or Chantal. The copper layer is too thin to convey any of it's desirable properties, so it just ends up being window dressing to attract suckers, er... buyers.
If you want to experience the real benefits of cooking with copper, you need to but Falk, Mauviel, Bourgeat, etc. Full copper pans with an interior lining of stainless steel, with no cladding on the exterior. You can not put them in the dishwasher, but life is full of trade-offs...
It's not copper clad. Supposedly, there's copper in the enamel. I'm only repeating what I was told, not promoting Chantal, which I do not own. I use Mauviel and Bourgeat copper and Le Creuset. I have read eGullet extensively and agree with the great part of what is written there. The cookware in question just came out, however.
It is copper clad. You should watch Chantal's own promotional video before continuing to make that claim. The salesperson you spoke with is either uninformed or looking to make a sale.
From the Chantal literature:
Chantal's Copper Fusion provides superior versatility and performance with Copper Fused Technology and stick resistant cooking surfaces. Copper-Fused technology 6-layer cookware has the following layers:
- Easy Clean Top Enamel interior
- Durable Base Enamel
- Carbon Steel
- Fused Copper Alloy
- Carbon Steel
- Durable Base Enamel exterior
Features of Chantal Copper Fusion cookware include:
* The copper plate that is fused to the carbon steel core is an excellent conductor of heat, resulting in a pan that heats very quickly and evenly without hotspots.
* The enamel interior is the most stick resistant surface you can get that has no chemical or nonstick coating (with no PTFE or PFOA).
* Rivetless Stainless Steel handles stay cool.
* Broiler safe.
* Dishwasher safe.
* Suitable for use on all cooking surfaces (including induction).
* Safe for food storage.
* Does not react with acid or alkali foods.
* Made in Germany.
If you watch the video, you will clearly see the process where they weld ("fuse") a ridiculously thin sheet of copper to the bottom of the pan. It will offer NO benefits of cooking with real copper cookware.
"The cookware in question just came out, however."
Chantal makes two lines of enameled steel cookware, the standard and the Copper Fusion garbage. The OP didn't refer to either one, and I am contending you shouldn't waste your money on either line.
I want to repeat Eandhl's question of what it is you are looking for in the 10" and/or 12" size. Is it a fry pan you want in those sizes? Are you looking at enamel coating for the non-stick properties? Then buy a cheap non-stick fry-pan like a Cuisinart which are pretty good, and reasonably priced. If you are looking to spend $180 on a real (not non-stick) fry pan, you shouldn't be looking at the Chantal. If I had $180 to spend on a fry pan, I'd buy a Demeyere Atlantis Proline 11" skillet, just $15 more at $195. Or the fabulous Demeyere Apollo Multiline 11" skillet at $162.
Really, if it is fry pans you are looking for, don't get the Chantal. You can do better. For example, if the Demeyeres don't appeal to you, or you want to spend less, you can get an All-Clad fry pan that is an "irregular" for a reasonable price at Cookewarenmore.com. I bought an All-Clad 8" fry pan there, and can find no flaw in it, even though it is supposedly an "irregular". A 10" All-Clad stainless fry pan is $71.40 there.
Hey-thanks everyone. The Chantel info was very helpful. I think I will pass. The piece I looked at was their newest line and has two handles and can go from the stove to the oven to the table.
Also,thanks for the info about Cookewarenmore.com. I had been wondering what "flaws" there might be--so glad to hear that they are fine. I am in love with my All-Clad. I use things for a long time and I am determined to get pans not made in China.
I found some feedback on line at chowhound.com which has positive reviews for the Chantal Copper Fusion cookware. I've linked it below. Noodlesportland, as I mentioned in your other thread, you will get more results searching on line if you spell Chantal correctly, with an "a" (Joe_Blowe posted the spelling correction too, but you keep spelling it wrong, so you won't be able to find it online). You might even find better prices than the $180 "sale" price the salesman quoted you. Check out Amazon; they usually have good prices on cookware.
I too am curious as to which 10" (12"?) Chantal pan you were considering. $180 does sound like a lot so can you say which one it was?
Here is a link that might be useful: Chantal Copper Fusion Discussion on Chowhound.com
Noodles, I think I may be done here. You started off asking about a 10 in. or 12 in. Chantel [sic] "pan" (which most people would think you're looking at a frying pan or skillet), and now you're looking at an 8 in. "dutch oven" (832-200, which is 20 centimeters, or 7.87 inches), which appears to be redundant to the 3.5 qt. "soup pot" you've already purchased.
If you won't tell us what you plan on doing with this pan, we will not be able to help you any further.
