8 Great Protein Snacks
8 Great Protein Snacks
By Lynn Prowitt
Have you ever wondered why experts recommend eating protein at every meal and snack? Protein is arguably the most important of the three macronutrients (protein, fat, carbs), but did you know a percentage of the protein you eat gets turned into glucose? It turns out that the process is labor intensive (your liver does the conversion work) and so the rise in your blood sugar is slow and hardly noticeable compared to blood-sugar-spiking carbs.
The other thing about protein is it's filling and satisfying. "In my practice, I've noticed that when people consume healthy, protein-rich snacks like unsalted nuts or nut butters, they simply consume fewer carbs," says dietitian Susan Weiner, MS, RDN, CDE, a member of dLife's medical advisory board and author of The Complete Diabetes Organizer (Spry, September 2013). Weiner likes to recommend high-protein snacks that aren't thought of as snack foods: "For example, rolled up, fresh turkey dipped in hummus can be a great afternoon snack."

Because I wear my Dexcom on my arm, I've slowly adjusted to the fact that people will ask me about it. Sometimes it's the rude and inquisitive "What's that?" and sometimes it's somewhat sincere curiosity "Is that a (insert random type of medical device that they assume)?" Sometimes it bothers me more than others depending on how they ask and how they respond once I've told them what it is. I have limits to how much myth-busting I want to do in everyday conversation and how much rudeness I can...

Land of 1000 Temples
... pretentious thing I've ever read in my life.
That day, we just wandered to a few temples near the station. Kyoto is just teeming with temples and shrines. The two we stopped at were siblings: the Higashi Hongwan-ji (the East Hongwan Temple) and the Nishi Hongwan-ji (the West Hongwan Temple). They were very similar in style, both were huge and wooden. The Eastern one had a lot of restoration going on so most of it was covered unfortunately, but ...

Faster Than A Speeding Bullet (Japan)
The Shinkansen Train in Japan, commonly known as the "Bullet Train" travels at more than 200 mph. I had a little time before catching my train this morning and got to talking to the man attending the desk at the hostel in Tokyo. It was early morning (around 5:30 a.m.) and no other customers to deal with, so we had a chance to talk some. He is an older man that traveled some when he was younger. One place he was really impressed with was Taiwan. He ...

So I've been brewing for a while but have had problems getting or understanding how to read and calculate this.
I'll try to post a pic but it looks like my reading is riht under 1.050 am I reading this right? And of so, when I'm finished I will take another reading and subtract the previous and that will be my apx abv, is this right? Please help, lol. I made a stout with some pretty fair amount of fermentables and added 1 1/2 cup of pruning sugar to boost the abv then pitched adnnees Belgian yeast.
Open up this link to the ABV chart:http://www.howtobrew.com/section1/chapter9-4.html
The OG (original gravity) numbers are across the top. When you find the FG number after fermentation, just look across your FG row and read the ABV in your OG column.
There is an equation somewhere, but this is easier for me.
Sometimes, the OG measurement can be in error if the wort is settled somewhat. I usually get the OG from adding the gravity points of the various fermentables.
"Why must it always be pandemonium?" - George Mueller/Nelson Van Alden
"Beer. Good." - Words of House Grogdrinking: Wojtkowiak Piwo, CLB's Barleywine, 8Hearted Pale Ale, O'Rob's Dry Irish Stout, DB8PT Session Ale, Wojtkowiak Grodziskie - bottle conditioning: Otto M. Gourd Pumpkin Barleywine, Jewel Thieves Apple Wine, CLB's Barleywine 1.2
I can't see your lines on your hydrometer, but it looks like you are reading it correctly. You are right around 1.049 or 1.050. Now do the same measurement when you think you are done (then again a few days later to ensure you are done) and the two numbers - entered into a calculator -will give you the ABV of your final product.
Without seeing the marks between 1.040 and 1.050 it is tough to read exactly where you're at, but you are correct that it looks close to 1.050, though I would bet it is closer to 1.048 or even 1.046.
ABV = (OG -FG) x 131
Try putting a flashlight up to the testing jar.

|Foreword to the Second Edition
|Next »
It is now two years since the first edition of this work was presented to the Christian public. Its reception has been far more favourable than the author had expected. Many have notified him of the help and blessing received from a perusal of his attempts to expound what is admittedly a difficult subject. For every word of appreciation we return hearty thanks to Him in Whose light we alone "see light." A few have condemned the book in unqualified terms, and these we commend to God and to the Word of His grace, remembering that it is written, "a man can receive nothing, except it be given him from Heaven" (John 3:27). Others have sent us friendly criticisms and these have been weighed carefully, and we trust that, in consequence, this revised edition will be unto those who are members of the household of faith more profitable than the former one.
One word of explanation seems to be called for. A number of respected brethren in Christ felt that our treatment of the Sovereignty of God was too extreme and one-sided. It has been pointed out that a fundamental requirement in expounding the Word of God is the need of preserving the balance of Truth. With this we are in hearty accord. Two things are beyond dispute: God is Sovereign, and man is a responsible creature. But in this book we are treating of the Sovereignty of God, and while the responsibility of man is readily owned, yet, we do not pause on every page to insist on it; instead, we have sought to stress that side of the Truth which in these days is almost universally neglected. Probably 95 per cent of the religious literature of the day is devoted to a setting forth of the duties and obligations of men. The fact is that those who undertake to expound the Responsibility of man are the very ones who have lost 'the balance of Truth' by ignoring, very largely, the Sovereignty of God. It is perfectly right to insist on the responsibility of man, but what of God?-has He no claims, no rights! A hundred such works as this are needed, ten thousand sermons would have to be preached throughout the land on this subject, if the 'balance of Truth' is to be regained. The 'balance of Truth' has been lost, lost through a disproportionate emphasis being thrown on the human side, to the minimising, if not the exclusion, of the Divine side. We grant that this book is one-sided, for it only pretends to deal with one side of the Truth and that is, the neglected side, the Divine side. Furthermore, the question might be raised: Which is the more to be deplored-an over emphasising of the human side and an insufficient emphasis on the Divine side, or, an over emphasising of the Divine side and an insufficient emphasis on the human side? Surely, if we err at all it is on the right side. Surely, there is far more danger of making too much of man and too little of God, than there is of making too much of God and too little of man. Yea, the question might well be asked, Can we press God's claims too far? Can we be too extreme in insisting upon the absoluteness and universality of the Sovereignty of God?
It is with profound thankfulness to God that, after a further two years diligent study of Holy Writ, with the earnest desire to discover what almighty God has been pleased to reveal to His children on this subject, we are able to testify that we see no reason for making any retractions from what we wrote before, and while we have re-arranged the material of this work, the substance and doctrine of it remains unchanged. May the One Who condescended to bless the first edition of this work be pleased to own even more widely this revision.

Northwoods League: Willmar ties NWL record in 9-3 victory Saturday
WILLMAR -- Home runs by Kenny Roberts and Zach Benson gave Willmar 59 for the season, tying the Northwoods League record for most roundtrippers in a single season by a team, set in 1997 by St. Cloud.
Roberts' grand slam in the first inning Saturday marked the first of the two home runs, and it also gave the Stingers a lead they would never relinquish for the remainder of the game.

The odds of growing up aren't good for baby sand dollars.
Smaller than the head of a pin, the larvae drift in the ocean — easy prey for anything with a mouth.
But a University of Washington graduate student has discovered the tiny animal has a surprising survival strategy: Faced with the threat of being gobbled up, it makes like Dr. Evil from the "Austin Powers" movies and clones itself.
The resulting "mini-me" may escape hungry fish because it is even teenier than the original — and harder to see.

"If you are eaten, but the smaller version of you survives, you're still a winner from an evolutionary standpoint," said Dawn Vaughn.
Vaughn's discovery is reported in this week's issue of the journal Science, a distinction most researchers rank higher than an appearance on "Oprah." It's unusual for a student to make the cut for one of the world's top science publications, but Vaughn's doctoral adviser urged her to aim high.
"I expected the paper to be rejected in record time," Vaughn said, laughing.
But what editor could resist a tale of fish slime and plucky invertebrates?
"They really are cool," said Vaughn, whose fascination with the tango of predator and prey was inspired by nature shows. She never expected to fall in love with creatures so small it takes a microscope to see them.
Familiar inhabitants of Washington's subtidal zone, sand dollars start life through the chance encounter of sperm and egg, simultaneously released into the water by mature adults. The larvae free-float for about six weeks before metamorphosing into miniature sand dollars that settle in colonies and eventually grow to full size.
"They're so tiny, we call them sand dimes," Vaughn said.
The white shells that wash up on the beach are the creatures' external skeletons. Living sand dollars are covered with velvety, purple spines used to grab food particles.
Vaughn knew many other marine invertebrates shift their shape to avoid being eaten. Colonial animals called bryozoans grow spikes when voracious sea slugs crawl across them. Barnacles take on a bent posture to repel snails. Vaughn's previous research showed periwinkle larvae narrow their shell openings to keep out marauding crab larvae.
Sand-dollar larvae, which look nothing like the adults, have multiple, spiky arms. Vaughn suspected those spikes might lengthen when predators were in the neighborhood.
She set out to test the notion at the UW's Friday Harbor Laboratories on San Juan Island, where sand dollars are in plentiful supply.
"They are pretty much the lab rats of larval biology," Vaughn explained. "They're really easy to rear."
But how to fool the infant sand dollars into thinking a predator was near?
Vaughn decided to add fish slime to the shot glasses where she kept her larvae.
Scraped from the back of a species called Dover sole — or slime sole — the mucus might be a chemical cue the larvae would recognize and respond to, Vaughn reasoned.
Still, she was floored when she came into her lab the next day and saw the larvae budding off clones.
"I remember saying out loud: 'It worked!' "
The larvae that were not exposed to fish slime did not clone themselves.
Over the next six weeks, she tracked development of the clones and the original larvae.
One of the most startling things was that by creating clones, the larvae were actually shrinking themselves down instead of trying to look bigger.
"The general assumption is that bigger is safer," said UW marine biologist Richard Strathmann, Vaughn's co-author and adviser. "But on the other hand, if there are a lot of predators out there that need to see their prey to eat it, being smaller might be safer."
The theory still needs a lot of work, both researchers agreed.
Thomas Ebert, an expert on marine invertebrates who discovered some sea urchins can live more than 100 years, cautioned against reading too much into the evolutionary significance of the clones.
"It could simply be a response to a harsh stimulus in the environment," said Ebert, professor emeritus at San Diego State University.
Vaughn was heading back to her Friday Harbor lab this week, where she'll try to figure out how fast the larvae can bud off clones, and whether the clones really are more likely to escape being eaten by fish.
She'd also like to get out of the lab more to enjoy the splendor of the San Juans. But with so many questions yet unanswered, that may not happen.
"I spend most of my time looking through a microscope."

Kukla's Korner Hockey
Now What New York Islanders?

from Arthur Staple of Newsday,
Jack Capuano said he wants to see a little more effort from the few veterans still left on the active roster for Sunday's season finale here.
"I would hope they're aware," Capuano said of the evaluations he, his coaching staff and general manager Garth Snow are performing on what remains of the team that muddled through this lottery-bound season. "I would hope they know they're still being watched closely, because obviously this season wasn't good enough."
So who will still be an Islander when the team convenes in September for the 2014-15 season? Who is on the bubble? Here are educated analysis/guesses on what the team may look like next season:
As long as Charles Wang controls the Islanders, Garth Snow is his man as general manager. Despite the negotiations of late -- and it's believed that Wang is hoping for other suitors besides Philadelphia wealth manager Andrew Barroway to be involved- - nothing seems imminent, so Snow isn't going anywhere.

Barry did not say which add he was referred to, the grammer was odd, plus my adds fully described the goods for sale so the only contact needed was to ring me to view the goods.
I replied to Barry asking which add he referred to, and told him it was best to ring me.
Barry responded a week later. He asked me to create a pay pal account and send him a copy of the email used for the registration so he can pay in. Again the writer used strange grammer

As the EFCA movement seriously embraces a multiethnic focus, we encounter complex issues. Virtually everybody agrees that the subject of undocumented immigrants is a quandary in the United States. The exact problem, however, is passionately debated. It is an issue that can be described in one word: messy.
Take the story of Juan and Maria Alvarado (their real names have been removed to protect their identities). Their patchwork life in their native Mexico consisted of working long hours at whatever jobs they could find. When their first child was born, crossing the border illegally seemed the most logical move for a better life.
After all, American companies were begging for workers. But a legal work visa took years to obtain, and the baby didn't have years to wait for food, clothing and shelter. The Alvarados chose to slip into California, find jobs and start anew.
Soon, friends in their new land invited them to church, where Juan and Maria met Christ. Salvation changed their worldview, and not having legal documentation bothered them. So they entered the process to become documented, legal workers. Continue Reading…

So like most of my hobbies, my brewing equipment has quickly blown out of control.
I recently picked up a 15G pot and started doing all-grain recipes. While having the spigot on the pot is an enormous improvement over lifting the 5G of wort and pouring it into a funnel on my fermenter (read: my last brew day), I still have to lift large quantities of liquid around to gravity feed everything.
So after scratching a plan to make a teeter-tottering brew rig to lift various things (but it would have been EPIC) I'm considering picking up a March pump.
I'd like to do a single-tier build, as I already have some heavy-duty racks that would be ideal for it. The thing is, I only have one big kettle. I do have a smaller, 7G kettle.
What I do now is:
Heat strike water in either BK. Mash in.
Heat the sparge water in 15G BK during the mash.
Drain first runnings into 7G BK.
Drain sparge water into MLT.
Put first runnings into 15G BK.
Drain second runnings into 15G BK.
So I'm trying to work out how this will go with the pump. The only real question I guess is lautering. I'm using a s/s braid to lauter. Can a pump be used on the output of this, or does it not run fast enough to keep up?
Am I missing some simple thing that would make this all easier?
Not really an answer to your question, but here's how I've been doing it. (FYI I have a march pump but rarely use it before I cool the wort after boiling)
I have a 15g kettle & a 13.2g kettle and 2 burners.
- Heat mash water in 15g BK on one burner
- Use a large pot to scoop water into MLT cooler until I can comfortably lift & pour the rest
- Heat sparge water in 13.2g kettle on other burner during mash
- Drain directly into 15g kettle with burner on low for mashout temp
- Use the large pot again to scoop water from 13.2g sparge kettle to MTL for each batch sparge
- Drain each running directly into 15g kettle
There have been times where I've set up the march pump to fly sparge after the 1st batch sparge.
just add 2 kegs and add not one march pump but two and you will have a Brutus. All of your problems will be solved and it will be in keeping with your out of control brewing problem.
hhahaa thanks for the suggestion I'm trying to keep things under control for the time being. I just spent $279 on a kettle, so buying more kettles would not be conducive to a happy home.
I think I'll go with a 3-tier for now. All I need to buy is one more burner for the HLT, and as my plumber brother pointed out: you can always depend on gravity.
You could turn a large rectangular cooler into your HLT. You would heat the strike water in your BK, pump into mash tun. When you're about 1/2 way through the mash, get your sparge water to proper temp, then pump into the HLT, freeing up the BK.
*midpost edit* Yeah this is a two tier setup
Then either pump the sparge water into the MLT, or pump the wort into the BK, depending on how you see a two tier setup in your head. Gravity does one transfer and the pump does the other. And you have a single burner, single kettle, two tier, easily upgraded system.

Atomic Robot Brewing- Beware the Robot Uprising!!http://robotarmageddon.com/wp-conten...t-Uprising.jpg
Ok, I'm sold on a pump. I talked with a homebrewing friend last night and he says the pump is the best bit of brewing hardware he's bought so far. I'm sure I could cook up a way to use it to whirlpool and speed up chilling to help justify my expenditure
I like the idea of using the HLT as a storage tank and not directly firing it. I had never thought of that.
So I can either have a two tier system or a 3-tier system where I don't need to climb a ladder to fill the HLT.
I guess the advantage of the 3-tier system is twofold. I can still use it if my pump explodes because everything is gravity fed, and I only have to pump water from one place (BK) to one place (HLT), requiring less plumbing.

Beggar's Lice: Hedge Parsley (Torilis arvensis). Help!
We have quite a few acres of oak savannah, and this weed, with it tiny little burrs that stick in your socks, your dog's coat, etc, is a pain in the butt and needs to be eradicated. We would appreciate any advice from those who may have experience with this weed. There is far to much of it to pull out of the ground (plus, it is hard to see), and it is intermixed with wild grasses. The land is without irrigation. Please let me know your thoughts. Our goal is to have 5 acres surrounding our home that is free of this pesky weed.
Options I can think of:
1. Massive spraying: would wipe out everything, but new weeds would be able to come in. Plus...very costly to buy that much Round-Up.
2. Plow or till the land, and over-seed it with a dry land pasture mix, hoping that the new grasses would crowd out the weed.
3. Just mow it down before it goes to seed each year. The only problem with this is that you may have to mow it (brush hog) it more than once. Tractor work can be costly.
4. Combinations of the above.
5. Will goats eat this stuff? One forum I went to implied that they do not eat it--which seems dubious given the fact that goats will eat just about anything, including star thistle.
Thanks for reading!
This is simazine for germination control of Beggar weeds spray cover spray before comes up in spring 2 weeks before. 4 quarts per acre give good control for about 4 months then do it again. A pint roundup to acre with crop oil give control young weeds not necessary to spray large amount after 4 months you may want do pint roundup again. In 3 years control should be good color of grass loose some green color but kill young weeds some grass thin out but recover. ATV boom sprayer all needed to get total broadcast spray. Your mowed area easier to mow less work on mower.

Paxton healthy, building for regular season
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- James Paxton has been a little behind this spring after getting a delayed start due to a bruised left forearm, but the Mariners left-hander said he should be just fine for the regular season despite a bit of a rocky go in Friday's 5-1 loss to the Royals.
Paxton lasted just 3 2/3 innings on a night he struggled with his command, giving up five runs (two earned) on four hits, three walks and a wild pitch. But the positive side is he feels 100 percent healthy now and went to the bullpen at Surprise Stadium afterward to build his final pitch count to 80 after throwing 68 in the game.

For a few months out of the year I'll probably record 20 shows a week.
Most will be watched right away and then deleted, others may need to stay on the box a while, I say this for disk space requirements.
Will I be able to use my current PC?
What do you suggest for disk space?
What's the current best capture card?
Will I be able to stream the video via wireless?
MythTV the best?
And whatever advice you can give that I havn't thought of would very much

That's word from federal officials who looked into a complaints that his campaign had violated the Hatch Act, which bars workers from running for an office that is connected to federal funding.
The lone Republican on the council works for Connections Community Support Program.
That's a nonprofit that provides housing, health care and employment services which gets millions of dollars

This may have been mentioned earlier but I couldn't find it. What cocoa powder did you use? I am having problems finding the fat free variety.
This is what I use:
I get it at a food coop. If you can't find it, then get whatever you can that has the lowest fat content. Other folks have used regular cocoa powder and reported they still got decent head, but you might as well try to give yourself every advantage you can.
"Science + beer = good!"
-Adam Savage
Really just looked at this big grain bill. I don't think my 5 gallon pot could handle it at 1.5 qt/lb it comes out to about 4.5 gallons or 1.25 qt/lb it comes out to about 3.77 gallons..
Before I set up my beverage cooler mashtun, I made this using a standard pasta pot. Filled it to the brim, but it worked!
I'd cold brew it in the fridge and add it... I dunno. Maybe in secondary?
Sounds good to me, thanks bud.
Just had my first one of these its only been two weeks since bottling but I was curious I ended up using about half the coco powder that the recipe called for because i forgot to add it during the boil so I boiled it up seperatly and raked into secondary on top of it. It has a very strong chocolate nose and it finishes with a slight coco taste but it is not all chocolate in your face which is good. Even after two weeks in the bottles one made me want to have a few more.
If it's not all chocolate in your face, you did it wrong.
But if you like it that way, then all's well that ends well. Glad you like it.
Im completely new to making recipes, or what goes into them, but this sounds absolutely delicious.
I''ve read through a number of pages in this thread, has someone posted a all-grain version of this, or can tell me what to replace the extract with? And will it change much of the flavour of this beer?

gable vent ...AND ridge vent?
My new construction, brick, galvalume roof, story and a half home, has three gable ends. Ridge vents will run along the roof, with perforated hardy board soffets. We have three standard vinyl round gable vents ready to install also. My builder suggests that we use them as purely decorative (no hole to make them functional).
I live on the gulf coast, hurricane country,...one friend said gable vents can let in water during heavy winds. But these vents are new and hopefully engineered to stop wind driven rain,....I'd like some extra ventilation.... thoughts?
Ridge vents work in conjunction with eave vents. Doing anything else is counter productive for roof ventilation. No gable vents. No power vents. The aire flow is from the unobstructed eaves (with insulation chutes to maintain clearance) through the underside of the roof and out the ridge.
However, in warm climates, having a sealed attic with zero venting would be the best choice for the home. Especially if you have ducting planned for the attics.
I think we are past having a "sealed attic" at this point. And this being a story and a half, the "attic" is a rather small area at the very peak of the roof. Roof trusses are 2x8's... the cross ties that define the small attic are 2x8's also. We will have insulation chutes/spacers between the roof and the fiberglass. A silver galvalume roof will be used.
baffles in rafter bays dedicate pathways for
cooler air to enter soffit ventilation areas.
why builders mix ventilation strategies in
attics, I'll never know or understand.
there are three methods of venting
attics, each are stand alone methods.
not mix and match.
gable end venting.
soffit and ridge venting
soffit and passive vents
some areas are outlawing pav's, with good
reason. Georgia is the latest to do so..see
article below.
as pav's pull hot air out of attic, they also
pull cool air from duct leaks & from holes in
floor of attic from conditioned space below.
do they cool off the attic..you bet ya. by
robbing conditioned air that you pay to cool.
pav's..never a good idea for the person who lives
in the house & pays the bills.
undoubtably unvented attics benefit hurricane areas
more thatn vented attics. putting insulation on the
roofline puts ducts & equipment in semiconditioned
space, and minimizes problems caused by holes in
air barrier at attic floor.
but for those who don't go that route, proper attic
ventilation is important. just as important is sealing
holes in attic floor. ICAT recessed cans, sealed supply
boxes that penetrate attic floor, sealing oversized
cuts at bath vent fans and so on.
insulation doesn't work when air moves through it.
creating an air tight barrier between attic and living
space is crucial.
Georgia Pulls the Attic-Ventilator Plug
"The state residential code allows only solar-powered versions; plug-in powered attic ventilators will no longer be allowed
Posted on Aug 31 2011 by Richard Defendorf
Building science target. The money that would have been spent purchasing and installing one of these attic fans could pay for a more cost-effective upgrade, which would include more ceiling insulation and proper air sealing.
Attic ventilator fans have taken a whupping in the court of building science, played starring roles on useless-products lists, and gotten roughed up in the comments sections of blogs. Now they�re gadget non grata in Georgia�s supplement to the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code.
Actually, as energy consultant and Energy Vanguard blogger Allison Bailes points out, that particular part of Georgia's code supplement contains a loophole. In its list of mandatory "Systems" requirements, Georgia allows solar-powered attic ventilators, but attic ventilators designed to use grid power "shall not be connected to the electric grid." In other words, you can have one, as long as it's not plugged in.
Dealing with the heat
Despite the compromise, the rap on attic ventilators is now anchored in code. Promoters of these machines say the devices help cool attics by exhausting hot air to the outside. However, attic-fan critics say the fans often draw makeup air from a home's interior. During the summer, there's obviously a major energy penalty if your attic fan is pulling air-conditioned indoor air from the living space into the attic through leaks in the ceiling.
Frequently cited research results from a study conducted in 1993 and one conducted by the Florida Solar Energy Center show that attic exhaust fans also can depressurize the living area to the extent they create potentially hazardous backdrafting conditions, particularly in homes with atmospherically vented gas appliances.
Energy consultants like Bailes and building scientists from FSEC and the Building Science Corporation suggest that, for most homes, the most cost-effective and safe approach to address high heat in attics is to perform air-sealing work at the ceiling and to insulate deeply. "
best of luck.
Ha. Just built in Georgia with power vents. Passed code. Not solar power. I understand the thought process behind no power vents (but didn't read them until after they were installed and we moved in). However, we moved in in late July. Our upstairs heat pump never kept up. Went on for several months and was troubleshooted (or troubleshot;)). I was in the attic and noticed the roof vents were never hooked up to electricity. They were hooked up, a/c immediately cooled and worked much less, bill went down 350.00.
Wonder why? Temperatures were consistent. We do have quite a bit of attic insulation but only blown in cellulose (a lot of it though). Perhaps that sealed any holes where air could be sucked in.
It was not the result I was expecting but am very glad for it.
atricle is recent. would not have been in effect
in july.
good for you landngarage.
make sure that a/c supply boxes are sealed to sheetrock
ceilings, oversized cuts at bath fans are sealed
and recessed lights are ICAT and not just IC.
best of luck.

Latest Pistol Star Stories
Astronomers have taken an important step toward establishing a weight limit for stars. Studying the densest known cluster of stars in our galaxy, the Arches cluster, astronomers determined that stars are not created any larger than about 150 times the mass of our Sun, or 150 solar masses.
Latest Pistol Star Reference Libraries
Eta Carinae -- Eta Carinae is a very large (100-150 times as much mass as the Sun) and bright (about 4 million times as bright) star, in the constellation Carina (right ascension 10 h 45.1 m, declination -5941m). The star is surrounded by a large, bright nebula, known as the Eta Carinae Nebula, the Keyhole Nebula, or NGC3372 One remarkable aspect of Eta Carinae is its changing brightness. When it was first catalogued in 1677 by Edmond Halley, it was of the 4th magnitude, but later it...

New York Magazine's The Cut sent Swiss photographer Namsa Leuba a trunk of designer clothes and let her run free with them. Leuba did just that, and then some. African Queens is the magnificently ornate and creative result—a high fashion representation of African statuettes.
Leuba, born to a Guinean mother, has been researching and exploring African identity throughout much of her work. Shot in Paris, Leuba selected her models from off the street and adorned her statuettes in the designer clothing that she modified in a variety of ways using rope, wooden planks and African-inspired artifacts. Her models channel the powers that such a statuette might represent; vitality, power, fecundity, protection.
Leuba is currently based in Paris and was chosen as one of British Journal of Photography's 20 photographers to watch in 2013.

Featured from the Pharmacist:Types of Pain Medications
For what conditions are pain medications used?
Virtually any disease as well as most injuries and surgical procedures involve some degree of pain. It's not surprising, then, that pain medications, also known as analgesics, are among the most commonly used drugs in the U.S. Pain can range from minor, acute complaints, such as a muscle sprain, to chronic, severe pain, such as that sometimes experienced by cancer patients. Some drugs used for other conditions also are effective at relieving certain types of pain. These drugs include certain drugs used for depression, epilepsy, and anxiety.
What are the differences among the types of pain medications?
Pain medications can be broadly classified into two categories: prescription and nonprescription. In the latter category are several mild anti-inflammatory drugs (ibuprofen, naproxen), as well as acetaminophen. These are mainly meant for use with short-term, acute pain -- menstrual cramps,...Read the Types of Pain Medications article »

Freeze protection
Randy31513(Georgia 8b)April 8, 2012
If you have something like T-post on hand and can find the stretchy plastic like they use to hold things on shipping pallets then make a fence around what you want to protect then wrap with that plastic twice then cover the top with what ever you have. You may have to lay hay around the bottom of the plastic.
I bought a box of the stretchy plastic with handles a few years ago and it works well for this.

Bart befriends a Muslim boy named Bashir, but Homer suspects Bashir and his family to be terrorists. Meanwhile, Lisa buys a Mapple [=MyPod=] and runs up a $1200 bill from downloading songs.
!!This episode contains examples of: ([[YMMV/TheSimpsonsS20E7MypodsAndBoomsticks YMMV Examples here]])
* ActorAllusion: In Homer's fearful nightmare following his suspicions of Bashir's family, [[{{Disney/Aladdin}} Genie]] appears and transforms Springfield into a stereotypical Muslim caricature. Homer's voice actor Dan Castellaneta was the replacement voice for Robin Williams' Genie in ''The Return of Jafar'', the Aladdin animated TV show, and the ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' video game series.
* BlandNameProduct: The "Mapple" Bar with its [=MyPods=] and [=MyPhones=].
* JackBauerInterrogationTechnique: Homer sees it in a ''[[Series/TwentyFour 24]]'' parody.
* MistakenForTerrorist: The source of conflict when Homer assumes that Bashir's father is a terrorist
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: The episode's Itchy and Scratchy segment "diePod Slaylist" features Scratchy feeling guilty over having tested the atomic bomb. He goes in a time machine to stop himself but gets killed by Itchy planting a bomb in his past self's body
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Homer tries to move the bombs under the belief that Bashir's father is plotting to suicide bomb the Springfield Mall but instead ends up blowing up the bridge leading to the Duff Brewery.
* ScamReligion: Apparently Moe started one to get out of jury duty much to Kearney's disdain
* ShoutOut: The title is a reference to BedknobsAndBroomsticks
** When Bart makes it seem Steve Mobs is insulting his clients, Comic Book Guy charges and swings a sledgehammer at the screen akin to the "1984" Apple commercial.
** During the dream where Genie transforms Springfield, a music store is changed to only have aisles of [=CDs=] by Cat Stevens (though ever since his conversion to Islam, he now goes by Yusuf).
* UnfortunateNames: Bashir's last name is [[OsamaBinLaden Bin Laden]].
* WhatTheHellHero: To a point, as Homer was perfectly tolerant of Bashir and his family until Moe and his friends basically told him to be intolerant and jingoistic ''for no reason at all'' (other than the fact that what they believe about Muslims is a reflection of what most people believe about Muslims in RealLife, ''especially'' in a post-9/11 world). Homer's actions also merit this.

This was the first Steppenwolf album I bought, and it really got me hooked.
Ride With Me, Move Over, Rock Me, Magic Carpet Ride, and one of the first metal songs ever made and easily recognizable rock anthem Born To Be Wild.
I cannot say anymore but to get it if you get the chance to purchase this item!
