Japanese landscape design has become one of the most popular exterior design themes of contemporary day. There is something about a Japanese garden that invites peace and tranquility in your outdoor space. To create a Japanese landscape design, you will use the elements in nature you are provided with, and arrange them to reflect the peaceful reality you seek. Whereas Western gardens use more flora and fauna to create this harmony, a Japanese garden will use them in more natural and subtle ways.
For example, a tortoise statue believe it or not is a Japanese symbol that can add an incredible omen to your outdoor space. The tortoise is believed to be a symbol of immortality in the Eastern world, and when incorporated into a garden, provides support, good luck, and longevity to its owner.
Ponds and hills are also a common theme in Eastern gardens, as these represent tranquil elements of nature. You can use an Asian inspired outdoor garden water fountain to accomplish this goal, or create a pond in your outdoor area if you have the space. As well, religious outdoor statues are symbols of significance in Japan, and are used frequently for dwellers to invite blessings from the heavens into their indoor or outdoor space. A religious statue outside near your entrance will beckon the gods of your choice to bless peace on your garden and home.
When it comes to Japanese landscape design, Japanese principles and your imagination are all you need to incorporate the peace of mind you seek into your garden.

Halloween gift tag clip
I was playing around with my Tag Makers recently and stumbled upon the idea to attach the tag to a gift bag with a small wooden clothes peg rather than to tie it with twine through the hole at the top. This discovery was perfect timing since I've got some Halloween gift bags to make up.
Tag Maker Banner
I'm sure you've seen the new Tag Maker punches which enable you to create handmade tags easily and quickly. They even feature a centered hole punch and eyelet setter – all in the same tool! As I'm sure you are aware, tags can be used for so many purposes beyond gift packaging labels. Check out the gallery of projects over at Fiskars.com for more ideas on how to use your tags.
Geometric Felt Coasters
I'm still more than a little bit in love with the whole geometric trend. It's such a strong, bold look and can be used in so many different ways. I was recently inspired by these modular coasters, spotted on the Purl Bee website and there's always a place for new coasters in my home! I wanted to give mine a more autumnal feel, using a mix of rich berry and oranges.I made a few changes from the original coasters, which were stitched up by hand. For the sake of speed and efficiency, I used a zig zag stitch on my machine for all the inside seams. After cutting out felt squares measuring 4.75″ on each side, I then cut smaller squares and triangles and arranged them in position on a piece of white wool felt.
Reusable lunch bags
We are coming to the last few days of summer vacation, and I must admit I'm feeling nostalgic for the days when we still had a long, hot summer ahead of us. I think the kids are, in some ways, starting to feel ready to get back to school, but I'm feeling a little sad! To keep myself occupied, I'm trying to craft my way to school preparedness, starting with this vinyl, reusable lunch bag.I used this pattern by Pretty Prudent, with a couple of modifications. Firstly, I used a vinyl material with a wipedown wrong side. A quick rinse under a tap should keep this lunch bag clean inside and out. Second, I used Velcro for the seal, instead of a button or tie. Velcro is so easy for small fingers to manage, and I really like how you can roll down the top edges to make a neat closure and avoid spillages.

Thick, colorful, safe sisal rope toy satisfies your pet's desire to throw things while keeping him entertained. Perfect for tossing, rattling, and chewing. 6" long. For: Rabbits, guinea pigs, and smaller.
Please click on "More Information" for safety precautions and toy suggestions for rabbits.
|Toys for Rabbits
Drs. Foster & Smith Educational Staff
Rabbits love to chew and explore. Not providing adequate means of chewing and exploring not only creates boredom, but also goes against their very nature and instincts. Most owners are quickly enamored by their rabbit's curious nature, and see it as a way for their pet to acquire mental and physical stimulation, as well as necessary tooth wearing.
Rabbits like to explore many textures and toys at once, and you will need to be careful about the types of toys you provide. Make sure they are made of non-toxic materials because it is likely your rabbit will chew on them. Make sure there are no small pieces that may come loose and become a choking hazard. Remove and replace any toys that show signs of wear. Also, if you are allowing your rabbit some play time outside the cage, make sure he cannot access electrical cords, heating/cooling vents, wood furniture, or anything else that might be dangerous or off-limits in your home. (Remember, rabbits think those things are just as much fun as toys.)
Every few days, it's a good idea to rotate the toys you allow your rabbit to play with to add more variety. The following are some of the toy options that rabbits love to toss, dig at, explore, or chew, and you may already have some of these items around the house.

What you need to know to make the most of the new healthcare law.
John Nichols explains why he is excited about the possibilities for progressive reform to the healthcare bill.
Legal experts say constitutional challenges to the healthcare reform legislation don't have a leg to stand on. But as politics, these suits could be a roaring success.
The healthcare reform debate exposed the weakness of the prochoice movement. What now?
Fourteen states have filed suit challenging the healthcare overhaul, particularly the individual mandate, as unconstitutional. Christopher Hayes asks Columbia law professor Gillian Metzger whether this argument holds up.
Republicans sure know how to make Barack Obama look good. What are they going to do now, threaten to repeal a law that forces insurance companies to cover the sick?
Last night, the House of Representatives passed comprehensive healthcare reform. The sweeping legislation will extend coverage to 32 million Americans, curb the worst abuses of the private insurance industry, and attempt to contain spiraling health care costs.
We support passage of the healthcare legislation, even as we urge the progressive community to begin the struggle immediately to correct its many flaws and improve its protections.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi has laid out a strategy to pass healthcare reform in the next couple of days. As usual, progressives are fretting that winning will make them look bad, while conservatives are baying for blood and calling for revolution.

DUBUQUE, Iowa - It sounds like the beginning of a joke. A man, a zebra, a parrot walk into a bar.
A Cascade man was arrested outside of a Dubuque bar on Sunday night with a pet zebra and a macaw parrot in the front seat of his truck.
Officers charged Jerald Reiter, 55, with OWI. Police reports say officers stopped him in the parking lot of the Dog House Lounge as he drove away in his truck. According to police, field sobriety tests showed Reiter had a blood alcohol level of .14. The legal limit in Iowa is .08.
Reiter tells KCRG.com that he and his girlfriend, Vickey Teters, see the animals like their kids and often take them for rides. On Sunday night, they say they took the zebra and the macaw to the bar because it often lets people bring their animals inside.
Reiter says the owner told him they were serving food that night and he couldn't bring a zebra inside the bar. Bar owners tell KCRG.com that no animals are ever allowed inside the establishment.
At that time he went outside to put the animals in his truck and several people were in the parking lot taking pictures. He believes one of those people called police.
Reiter disputes the charges and says he realized he was too drunk to drive and was about to let a passenger in the truck to take the wheel when he was arrested.
Online records show Mr. Reiter was released from the Dubuque County Jail May 21, 2012.

Uraeus with Solar Disk
Many deities in the official Egyptian pantheon can be recognized by their headdresses. The Double Crown of the beneficent goddess Mut, whose name means "mother," characterizes her as a conveyor of kingship and the divine mother of pharaoh. Amun, whose name means "hidden," is portrayed as a man wearing a tall, plumed crown. When he appears with a solar disk at the base of the crown, he is known as Amun-Re, who possesses both hidden and solar creative powers. When shown in tightly enveloping garb and with an erection, he may be called Amun-Re-Kamutef, associated with fertility and regeneration. An amulet in this virile attitude would have held the promise of eternal rebirth after death. Monthly rebirth is also invoked by the full and crescent moons of Khonsu, the divine heir of Amun and Mut.
In popular religion the protection of pregnancy and birth was entrusted to such deities as Taweret and Bes. The appearance of Taweret, "The Great One," as a pregnant hippopotamus with lion and crocodile features is a dramatic symbol of protective motherhood. The dwarf with a lion's face and legs likely represents Bes, who was worshipped in the home as a protector of motherhood, birth, and rebirth.

Oh and would you look at that, downgraded back to 3.8 and all my sound options comes back.
I'm not even blaming the arch team for this, now it seems the kernel team are incompetant.
Getting so tired or actual idiots 'fixing' or 'improving' things when they haven't got a clue and they just break everything, gonna format this and install debian stable later I think.
For anyone else on arch that needs a fix, go to the arch linux release mirror thing and find linux-3.8.11, pacman -U <package name>, reboot and all will be fine again.

If you've got arch, and have upgraded it without ever having problems then you are doing something wrong unless you do a brand new install every so often.
Posted 12 May 2013 - 21:46
*sigh* don't blame the distro or the kernel maintainers. Blame yourself, what chipset is the audio card you have, have you read the changelog for kernel 3.9 have you read Arch documentation before upgrading to 3.9? Did you try loading the needed kernel modules after the upgrade?
The kernel maintainers are strict with their releases, its not their fault. As for Arch im an Arch user and have had no problems with any upgrades because i don't upgrade blind, with rolling release distros you need to read things first before you upgrade to ensure that things wont break and if they do you will then know how to reconfigure them correctly.
did you try recompiling a custom 3.9 kernel to ensure you have the correct modules loaded?
Posted 12 May 2013 - 22:38
Yeah that's right they fully documented that when they first switched to systemd, it wasn't actually complete and lots of things didn't work... OH NO WAIT, they didn't!
Wait.... What!?
I would say they are actually reading the change notes and not indiscriminately applying all updates, also known as doing it right.
Posted 12 May 2013 - 22:52
So I had a pretty much fine arch linux 64 bit install with KDE, I had pulseaudio and using alsamixer I could see the full range of my card's audio devices, master, front, left, side, mic, line, etc. and all was great...
I've been looking just now though and alsamixer's sound has been reduced to what I will consider utter garbage that makes it pretty much unusable. Master, headphone (there is no headphone slot), speaker (there is no internal speaker), PCM, Mic Boost, Beep, Auto+Mute Mode, Independant HP...
Now, I've no idea what auto+mute is nor what independant HP is, but what's really ****ed me off is I can no longer get mic or line or play either out through my speakers. I frantically removed pulseaudio and reinstalled it a few times thinking I'd somehow messed that up but it wasn't that, looking through the pacman upgrade log the only thing I see that has anything to do with sound is upgrading from kernel 3.8 to 3.9 earlier...
So does this mean it's the doing of the 3.9 kernel or what? Has the kernel been bastardised now so that it's just a pile of garbage? And most importantly, how the hell do I go about getting back a usable sound system instead of this unworkable system?

He should blame himself for something that should work but doesn't? Yeah, somehow that doesn't make sense. I only run Linux in a VM and this is an example why that makes more sense. I feel for some of you troopers that have to go all through this pain to get stuff to work.
Should I waste my life away and my time away on just getting basic things to work or should I just get work done that needs to get done? hmmmm.
Posted 13 May 2013 - 20:02
I think you're getting a bit confused between using the normal arch linux repos and the TESTING arch linux repos.
He's using a bleeding edge rolling-release power-user focused distro, if you use a bleeding edge distro you will run into regressions from time to time after updates, its simply the nature of running cutting-edge software. And if you run cutting edge software you should be prepared to report bugs instead of freaking out every time you encounter one. Most distros do not do major kernel updates in between releases (only smaller security and bugfix updates), so this type of thing is much more rare.
From the threads I've seen from him lately, he should blame himself for choosing a distro that clearly does not fit his needs.

Never use testing apps or OS (beta or public preview release) on your primary system... you will need a backup system for testing to make sure they work... if so, you can upgrade or fresh install on your primary.

ONE of the most important collections of watercolour paintings in the world is heading our way.
More than 40 works from the exquisite holdings of Sir Hickman Beckett Bacon (1855-1945), an avid collector of English watercolours between 1895 and the First World War, will be on show at Abbot Hall Art Gallery, from January 12 until April 14.
Now owned by Sir Nicholas Bacon, the precious paintings will be loaned to the Kendal gallery for its next exhibition - Turner and his Contemporaries: The Hickman Bacon Watercolour Collection.
Abbot Hall chief executive Gordon Watson was thrilled at the prospect of the eminent display, which should have the eyes of the nation's arts world focused on the important regional gallery.
In fact, a fitting time to stage such a grand show as Abbot Hall celebrates a half century since its opened its celebrated doors.
Gordon added: "Fifty years ago on September 28, 1962, Her Royal Highness Princess Margaret officially opened the gallery and since then Abbot Hall has established itself as one of the most significant and ambitious galleries in the north of England."
Rarely aired in public, the collection will be shown alongside highlights from Abbot Hall's own permanent collection of watercolours.
Sir Nicholas said that he was delighted to be able to lend the paintings to Abbot Hall.
He continued: "My great uncle Sir Hickman Bacon (Hicky) had unusual tastes for his time and thus the collection is very strong in the type of late, ethereal Turner watercolours that only became widely popular with the advent of abstract painting in the 1940s and 50s. Equally, John Sell Cotman, an artist who had only just emerged from total obscurity, was of particular interest.
"Hicky's collection represents English watercolour painting at its greatest; like so many collectors he was not interested by the fashion of the day, but he was committed to collecting those objects which fulfilled his heartfelt love of beauty."
Born in 1855 into a family of landed gentry, Sir Hickman was educated at Eton. He joined the army, later returning to his old-fashioned family mansion. He suffered from ill health early in his life, and remained a bachelor until he died in 1945. He also collected fabrics, wall hangings, ceramics and Japanese prints – a collection he gave to the Japanese Government.
Abbot Hall collections manager Nick Rogers said that an exhibition of watercolours from the 'remarkable' Hickman Bacon collection was a cause for celebration wherever it was held. He added: "That it is taking place in Kendal, Cumbria, is particularly appropriate, as this is an area that played a significant role in the development of watercolour as the medium of choice for the itinerant artist in the late 18th and early 19th Century."
A BLAZE of colour filled the heavens above Kendal Castle as scores of unusually-shaped kites were flown during a two-day festival.
Hundreds of people turned out to see the skies above the central town landmark transformed into a kaleidoscope of colour.
The free event saw kites of all descriptions performing aerial acrobatics. There was a 16ft hippopotamus, flying dogs, super-sized fish and many more, all organised by SmileFactor10 and Kendal United Junior Football Club.
Event organiser Craig Harby, who attends kite festivals regularly, said he wanted to bring the joys of the event to his home town.
"I do it for smiles. If you get someone looking at your kite and smiling then that's why you do it really," said Mr Harby. "It's one of those things you either enjoy or not. It's a peaceful thing flying a kite."
Emma Whitanney, of Windermere, who was at the event with her eight-year-old son, Isaac, said: "It's fab for the area to have something like this. It's a really fun family day out."
There was also a Kendal United two-day car boot sale where a selection of kites, air toys, novelties and balloons were available to buy and fly.
Other activities included a bouncy castle, face painting, children's play area and a BMX track.
Proceeds from the kite extravaganza will go towards Kendal's Junior Football Club.
Anyone with photographs from the day should send them to firstname.lastname@example.com for a chance of winning a seven-foot delta flow tail kite.

Nancy Pelosi, the Minority Leader of the United States House of Representatives, expressed support for raising additional taxes as a part of any negotiation for deficit reducing measures. On the CBS Sunday program, Face The Nation, Leader Pelosi was quoted as saying the recent fiscal cliff tax increase of $620 billion was "Not nearly enough on the revenue side."
Congressman Markwayne Mullin (OK-2) issued the following statement in response to Leader Pelosi's call for raising taxes on more Americans:
"Government needs to curb its endless appetite for continued reckless spending. In just the past few days we've seen taxes go up $620 billion and already the entrenched special interests are hungry for more. For too long Congress has said we want to create jobs, but this proposal will have the opposite effect. Instead of continuously passing spending measures that are not paid for and demanding more taxes, we need to cut government waste and excess."
In the coming weeks, Congress will be dealing with sequestration cuts, a vote on the debt ceiling and a budget resolution.

The rear window wiper may not fully contact the rear window. Our technicians tell us that replacing both the wiper blade and wiper arm will generally correct this issue.
Vacuum Leak From Intake Manifold O-Ring Gaskets
The intake manifold O-ring gaskets commonly leak, causing stalling and poor idle quality; the Check Engine Light will illuminate.
Dry Excluder Seals May Cause Squealing in Front Wheels Under 30 MPH
4wd vehicles may develop a squealing noise coming from the front wheels when driving below 30 mph. This is generally caused by dry excluder seals, lubricating the seals will commonly correct this concern.
Heater Stuck on Hottest Setting Due to Broken Heater Blend Door
A failed heater blend door or actuator can cause the temperature control for the HVAC system to stop working. A clicking sound from the dash area would commonly indicate an actuator fault. If the heater gets stuck on the hottest setting, the heater blend door may be broken requiring replacement of the heater box to repair the issue.
Rear Wiper Not Working
The rear wiper may stop working. This could be due to a rear wiper motor that has failed requiring replacement.
Ticking Type Noise Due to Cracked Exhaust Manifold
A ticking noise may develop from the engine due to a cracked exhaust manifold. Damaged exhaust manifolds will require replacement to correct this issue.

We Need More Tax Brackets
Income taxes have gone up for the first time in 20 years, but as the Huffington Post reports, only 1 percent of taxpayers are affected:
Forget the 1 percent, the fiscal cliff deal is all about the .7 percent. That's the slice of Americans who will be affected by Congress' new definition of "wealthy," according to a new analysis from the Tax Policy Center, a nonprofit tax research group.
The centerpiece of the deal passed by Congress on Tuesday includes higher income taxes on individuals who make at least $400,000 and couples who make more than $450,000. The tax rate for those groups jumps to 39.6 percent from the current 35 percent.
Of course, income taxes were only ever going to go up on the wealtiest Americans: There was, and is, no appetite for significant middle-class tax hikes, though they will be necessary in the medium-term.
With that said, I'm a little disappointed that there wasn't more creativity with regards to how we're raising taxes on the rich. I've said this before, but it makes no sense to include all income above a given limit in the same tax bracket. In 1960, there were 17 brackets above $35,000—roughly $250,000 in today's dollars—going up to $400,000 in annual income, or $3 million, adjusted for inflation. Now, there's a single one.
This presents an obvious problem for liberals—by placing every high income person in one bracket, it binds the interests of the sorta-rich, the rich, and the super-rich. Instead of a small number of truly wealthy people pushing for lower tax rates, you have a broader coalition of the well-off. Which is to say that if tax reform is on the table this year, then there needs to be a push for more brackets at higher incomes. It wouldn't make tax calculation complicated—it would still be a matter of simple arithmetic to figure out your unadjusted income tax burden—and it would move things in a small, but meaningfully, progressive direction.
Thu, 2013-01-03 12:27
No more brackets.
And no, I'm not suggesting a flat tax. Rather, a curved tax. Start a 0% up to, say, $15,000 (whatever) and curve it up to 50% at $2m based on a simple, constant derivative. Anyone with precalculus knows how to do this in the abstract and once it's decided upon it's simple arithmetical operations as well.
It's simple, but it's not flat.
Fri, 2013-01-04 18:29
@sj660, exactly. When filing income tax, everyone either reads their tax off a tax table or lets the software calculate their tax -- the formula could be simple or complex, but they're still just going to plug in the number that's calculated for them. Even most members of Congress don't understand how marginal rates work, so why not ditch the concept completely and get something that's more progressive and works the way most people think marginal rates work already?

Recipe by springfield70
"This is a wonderful alternative to those standard cinnamon-walnut-streusel coffee cake recipes. It's perfect for a brunch or a special family gathering. Prepping the batter in a food processor makes it quick and easy to assemble. You can substitute different preserves - apricot, cherry and blueberry all work well."

2 1/4 cups
all-purpose flour
3/4 cup
white sugar
3/4 cup
unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon
baking soda
1/2 teaspoon
baking powder
1/4 teaspoon
3/4 cup
sour cream
1 teaspoon
almond extract
1 (8 ounce) package
cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup
white sugar
1/2 cup
raspberry preserves
1/2 cup
sliced almonds
This coffee cake was AwEsOmE! Moist, creamy and just enough sweet. I used plastic sandwich bags across my fingers when working with the dough to spread it up the sides and again I used one to hold the jam, snipped an end off and piped the jam onto the cream cheese filling. Baked up pretty and I was proud enough to bring it into work to share. This cake was very well received! Kinda like the famous one by "E" but so much better because it's fresh. I used lower fat cream cheese and sour cream with no problems. (recipe made for *RECIPE GROUP*)
This cake was a total flop for me. The batter is too thick to spread (time consuming). The almond flavoring overpowers the taste of the cake, I cut the cream cheese in 1/2 and was still too creamy for our liking and I also ended up baking it for another 20 minutes and the centre didn't set up nicely.
I have quite a few clients that I bake for and my hubby is my tester of all new recipes that I try. His comment was " you can't serve this to anybody"....enough said.

This is a terrific coffee cake. It's moist and flavorful. Love the almond extract. It took longer than an hour for mine to bake in the center when the outer crust was getting dark. It turned out fine. I used Blueberry Sauce, a recipe from AR, instead of the raspberry jam. Drizzled white icing on it made with confectioners sugar and milk. Great Cake!
Made this for Recipe Group...LOVED IT! The biggest pain for me was trying to 'spread' the batter in the pan, but I just kept spraying my hand w/ cooking spray and that helped. Also, as far as trying to spread the filling over the cheese layer, I just spooned small dollops all over the top (I may have used a bit more preserves than called for b/c I didn't measure it), and that worked out great. This was not too sweet, but just right, perfect amount of cheese, raspberry and dough, IMO. This was wonderful w/ the raspberry preserves, but I can't wait to try it w/ other fruit flavors. This is a definite keeper! Thanks for sharing. :)
This is a keeper. Whole family enjoyed it. It's a little time consuming. I used a can of raspberry Solo filling found in the baking isle. I used an angled spreader to smear out the dough, then cc filling, then raspberry filling, worked great. I had to count the carbs for our family so from my guesstimating it was roughly 400 carbs for the entire dish.
Outstanding! I'd give it 10 stars if I could. My boss brought this in for us this morning and I must say it's the best coffee cake I've ever had. Absolutely delicious. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe with us - and thank you Angie for making it!
This was amazing. So moist and just the right amount of sweet. The hardest part was waiting the hour for it to cool. Thanks for a great recipe!
Well, its in the oven as I write this. This was a tricky recipe for me. I found spreading the dough was a sticky mess, even oiling my fingers and using the wrapper from the butter. I wound up wetting a serving spoon and that finally worked for me. I sure hope it doesn't affect the rising of the cake with the extra moisture/water. Also, I was tempted to put preserves on the batter and then pour the cream cheese mixture over. But I followed the recipe instead, and it was such a mess trying to spread 1/2 cup preserves over. I am sure the preserve layer won't be as pretty, because it mixed too much with the cream cheese layer when spreading.

Building and Programming Instructions for the NXT Gymnast
The following note is from Eugene Tsai, coach of the team who created the NXT Gymnast:
"I'm located in Taipei and run an after-school classroom teaching kids LEGO Mindstorms.
I coached an elementary school team to build the first gymnastic robot using RCX in September 2005 for the 2005 WRO (World Olympiad Robotics), Open Category competition – Robot in Sport. The robot was shown in Taipei's competition in September and Bangkok's competition in November of 2005. The robot was a 3-link design with two active links. At that time, people asked if the robot could swing over the bar.
After the first NXT arrived in my classroom last August, I was able to build a 2-link robot with a simpler structure and make it swing over the bar."
Eugene sent me building and programming instructions for the NXT gymnast in PDF form. For a limited time, you'll be able to download the instructions by going to the following site:

Mr. Keyu Chou helped me to make the 3D drawings.
I made notes on What Next:
1.Make predictable giant loop.
2.Make continual giant loops
3.Try better sensor for triggering the swinging – a gyro or an acceleration sensor?
I hope we will soon see more interesting works about the subject of gymnastic robot.

This would seem like a foolish question, were it not for the fact that I have found many people who have not done so. Take for in¬ stance, you may have insurance of $4500 or $1000 or more on your furni¬ ture, yet if you would take an inven¬ tory, putting down what it would cost you to replace the articles you have insured, in many cases you would find that you have not insurance to cover one-half of what your losa would be in case of your home Deing burned. It seems peculiar, but there are many pwople who have not one cent of insurance on their furniture, evidently preferring to take the chances of the place catching fire, or not thinking about it at all. If this item will in duce some man or woman who cannot aflfcrd to lose their savings in case of fire, to see their insurance agent and get out a poliey-at once, I will feel re¬ paid for having written it. Aa I have remarked in this column before, the cost is not very much. Take for instance to insure your furni¬ ture for $1000 for 3 years, the price is $5, an average of less tban 4 cents per week.

Product Description
Ferment just about any vegetable in a mason jar in three easy steps.
No mold, no slime, no worries!
About the product:
The ideal solution for anyone who's a little creeped out by the fuzzy stuff that can grow on top of an open fermentation system (like a bucket or crock), this little set locks out the air and all the yeast and mold that come with it. Carbon dioxide escapes through the top of the airlock but nothing is allowed in.
Set Includes:
- Two fermenting lids
- Two stoppers
- Two airlocks
- Instructions for using the sets
- Recipes
- Gift Box
Attach the set to any wide mouth mason jar – fits a half-gallon jar for larger batches and down to a half pint for tiny little test batches.
Includes two full setups (jars not included) – two ReCAP lids, instructions and recipes, two stoppers and two airlocks so you can make two batches of yummy lacto-fermented goodies at once!
Watch our Kickstarter video to learn more.
Lacto-fermentation in three easy steps with this kit!
1) Add chopped produce to any wide mouth mason jar.
2) Pour salt-water solution over the produce.
3) Attach FARMcurious Fermentation Set and set it on your counter for 3-6 weeks!
Wholesale inquiries contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Buy two or more 2-pack sets and get free shipping (US orders only)! Use the code "RecapFreeShip" at checkout.

Yes, we ship to Canada!
Our website can't currently process international orders but if you email us at firstname.lastname@example.com with your shipping address and the number of sets (minimum 2) you'd like we'll get back to you with a shipping price and and invoice via PayPal (you don't need a PayPal account to pay it – just a credit card). You can also call us to place your order over the phone at 510.410.3761. At this point, we're unable to ship to other countries beyond Canada.
What type of jar does this fermenting set fit?
The lid fits onto any wide mouth mason jar (like Ball, Mason or Kerr).
If you're outside the US and want to try to match them up with jars you have, they fit the wide mouth U.S. Mason jars which have a 3 inch (76 mm) inner [3 3⁄8 inch (86 mm) outer] diameter regardless of volume of the jar. Many European jars have lug threads instead of the continuous threads of the US Mason jars so be sure the threading on the rim is continuous (uninterrupted). It's my understanding that you can get Ball jars in Europe.
