Finding space for everything you'd like to pack into your commercial kitchen can be difficult. Having a few shortcuts up your sleeve, like one or two refrigerated chef base drawers doing some heavy lifting, can help save space, while increasing your output. Most refrigerated chef base drawers have a sturdy stainless steel top that you can stack other equipment on top of, and combining the right pieces with your chef base can create an area in the kitchen where your staff can do just about anything. Keep your cold foods cold and your floor space open with a few refrigerated chef base drawers giving you some support.

Editor's Note: this is a free edition of The Technical Indicator, a daily MarketWatch subscriber newsletter. To get this column, including 100 technical stock picks every month, click here.
CINCINNATI (MarketWatch) — Technically speaking, the major U.S. benchmarks have taken flight.
And though near-term overbought — every day can't be an up day — the longer-term path of least resistance points higher.
Before detailing the U.S. markets' wider view, the S&P 500's hourly chart highlights the past two weeks.
As illustrated, the S&P has rallied to resistance at the 1,500 mark, and stuck there.
Constructive price action.
From current levels, initial support spans from 1,486 to 1,491, and is followed by a deeper floor at the 2012 peak of 1,474.
Meanwhile, the Dow industrials' near-term view is similar.
In its case, the blue-chip benchmark has reached its next technical target spanning from 13,895 to 13,930, detailed last week.
Looking ahead, modest support holds just under the 13,800 mark, though its first significant floor rests at the 2012 peak of 13,662.
And the Nasdaq Composite's backdrop remains jagged, but technical.
The index topped Monday at 3,161 — matching the January peak — and has initially drawn sellers.
Widening the view to six months adds perspective.
On this wider view, the Nasdaq's near- to intermediate-term target continues to hold at the October peak of 3,171.
Beyond this, significant resistance holds at the 2012 high of 3,197.
Moving to the Dow, the blue-chip benchmark has taken flight.
Though near-term overbought, its nearly straightline January spike is longer-term bullish.
Looking ahead, the 2012 peak of 13,662 marks the Dow's first significant support.
And the Standard & Poor's 500 Index has also broken out.
From current levels, the S&P's first notable support holds at the 2012 peak of 1,474, and the first retest of this area would be expected to draw buyers.
The bigger picture
As detailed above, the major U.S. benchmarks have taken flight.
To start, the Russell 2000 Index and the S&P 400 MidCap Index have sustained a break to all-time highs. Both benchmarks were profiled last week.
Meanwhile, the more widely-tracked S&P 500 Index, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average, have extended to five-year highs.
In the process, the S&P 500 has reached an intermediate-term target at the 1,500 mark, initially detailed in the Jan. 14 review.
And as always, it's the response to resistance that's worth tracking.
To the extent that the S&P holds tightly to the 1,500 mark, the chances of an incremental leg higher improve.
On further strength, its next technical target spans from 1,545 to 1,552 — matching the 2000 peak — and is closely followed by the S&P's all-time high of 1,576.
Against this backdrop, the major benchmarks are near-term overbought — and due to consolidate — though the longer-term path of least resistance points firmly higher.
Significant support holds at the S&P's five-year breakout point, the 2012 peak of 1,474, and the first pullback to this area would be expected to draw buyers.
Setting aside specific technical levels, all trends technically point higher.
Tuesday's Watch List
The charts below detail names that are technically well positioned. These are radar screen names -- sectors or stocks poised to move in the near term. For the original comments on the stocks below, see The Technical Indicator Library.

Cheatgrass, an invasive weed, is choking out native sagebrush in the Great Basin -- and setting the stage for hotter, more catastrophic fires there. Jen Pierce, an expert on ancient fires, and Mike Pellant, of the Great Basin Restoration Initiative, talk about how fires are reshaping landscapes in the American West.
In the video: Post-fire debris flow in Cochiti Canyon, New Mexico
In an interview with Science Friday, fire expert Jen Pierce said "fire-related debris flows are these slurries of rocks and soil and ash and charcoal, which are produced following large stand-replacing fires."

Kauai is known for its spectacular sights on land that include brilliant gardens and cascading falls, but there is no shortage when it comes to magnificent underwater sights that can be explored by beginning and experienced scuba divers alike.
Just a few of the wonders found in the warm waters of the Garden Isle include reef creatures, arches, pinnacles, caverns and an abundance of tropical fish, with more than 25% of the species occurring nowhere else on the entire planet. You'll also likely encounter Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles, prolific here as their main food source, algae, is plentiful in the area with Kauai being one of the wettest places in the world.
Most dive operators offer introductory dives for beginners who are not certified. The maximum depth that non-certified divers are allowed to dive is 40 feet, with no more than four non-certified divers for each instructor.
You can get certified while you're on vacation in Kauai, but you may want to do all of the pool work in addition to learning basic skills, reading the PADI, taking quizzes and tests, etc. at home first so that when you arrive, all you need is your open water dives to complete the certification. Otherwise, you'll spend a lot of your precious vacation time studying.
If you're working through the PADI Open Water Diver course online, once you've completed all of the segments you can just print the eLearning record and bring it in to Seasport Divers in Koloa, starting your underwater adventure there.
Diving with Seasport Divers
Seasport Divers offers two boat trips off Kauai's South Shore every day of the year. Boat dives are led by highly trained, experienced guides who take small groups of a maximum of seven certified divers per guide on guided tours. High quality equipment rentals and dive computers are used for all certified divers who are diving from the boat with a video of each dive shot during the excursion.
Morning trips, catered to more experienced divers, meet at 7:30 a.m. in the Poipu shop. These are meant for divers who are totally comfortable in the water and with diving. The afternoon trips meet at 12:45 p.m., also at the Poipu shop, and are for new divers, those who aren't certified, or divers who are a bit rusty. The pace is slower and the dive sites are more shallow.
One of the popular dive sites here includes Sheraton Caverns which is considered a must for Kauai divers with its ancient lava tubes made up of beautiful archways and overhangs as the home of many Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles as well as large whitemouth moray eels, conger eels and a wide variety of Hawaiian reef fish. Divers also are treated to Brennecke's Ledge, a lava shelf that extends for several miles parallel to the South Shore with large branches of black coral where you'll find all types of marine life, including turtles, cowry, octopus as well as an abundance of tropical fish and even a resident white tip reef shark.
Shore diving tours are also available from Koloa Landing which was voted one of the best shore dives throughout the Pacific by Scuba Diving magazine. The site features lots of interesting coral formations and nearly every fish that can be found on a Hawaii fish cart. Hire an experienced dive guide for a tour of Koloa Landing, or get a briefing on the site as well as equipment rentals at the Seasport Divers Poipu shop.

Inverters: Using Your Power
Batteries deliver direct current, or DC, when you ask them for power. As long as the voltage of your battery and load match, you can tap this energy to run any DC lights or appliances directly. Normal household appliances won't run on DC though, and DC appliances are usually more expensive, smaller in capacity and harder to find.
Only DC power can be stored, so all your storage happens on the DC side of your system in the batteries. AC power has to be generated on demand. To meet this highly variable demand you need a device called an inverter. The inverter converts low-voltage DC from the battery into high-voltage AC as fast as your household lights and appliances demand it. The appropriate inverter depends on the type of loads you need to run, and how many you need to run at the same time. You want one that will deliver enough wattage to start and run all the AC appliances you might turn on at the same time, but no bigger than necessary.
A second consideration is the quality of the power that comes from the inverter. Usually inexpensive inverters produce a hybrid waveform called a modified sine wave. Most appliances will accept it and hardly know the difference. There are some notable exceptions to this rosy picture, however; ceiling fans, audio equipment, portable power tool chargers and other equipment can underperform or be damaged. Computing equipment generally is okay, though power dips from other loads can cause unexpected crashes.
Pure sine wave inverters have been available since the mid-1990s. A variety of high-efficiency, moderate-cost pure sine wave inverters are available now. Pure sine wave inverters deliver top-quality AC power and are almost always a better choice for household use. Many of the larger, household-size inverters come with built-in battery chargers that come on automatically anytime outside AC power becomes available from starting a generator or plugging into an electric vehicle.

Influence of Thyroid Hormones on the Woundhealing Process

- How to Read a Study Record
Main goal of this clinical investigation is to investigate different cytokines in wound fluids of euthyroid vs. hypothyroid patients. As a primary endpoint we want to evaluate if different cytokine levels in euthyroid vs. hypothyroid patients exist and to what extent these cytokines differ. Our targeted cytokines are: IL6, IL10, TNFa and MCP-1. From the literature these 4 factors seem to be the most reasonable to measure and to focus on. Additionally we focus on these 4 factors for financial reasons, technically there wouldn't be a problem to measure more, which is correlated with higher costs. Besides, more than 6 factors would mean larger amounts of sample fluids needed, which would cause technical problems. These factors don`t have to change in the same direction. Secondarily, we believe that differences in cytokine profiles of hypothyroidism vs. euthyroidism will correlate to differences in duration and clinical characteristics of the wound healing process.

Even though baby items are small, keeping them organized isn't always a small task. Diapers and wipes tend to get scattered throughout the house. Extra outfits, bibs and burp cloths find homes in the living room, kitchen and bedroom. And, in rare cases, finger nail clippers and nasal aspirators go to live in the couch cushions, only to be found weeks (and sometimes months) later. So, how is a parent supposed to keep these items organized and handy? With a Storage Caddy from Trend Lab, of course!

BURLINGTON–Whitney Bernier scored nine seconds into the second period and Mikaella Doran stopped twenty-eight shots as the North Country girl's hockey team avenged an earlier 3-1 loss, defeating Division I So. Burlington 1-0 on Wednesday night.
"It was a slow start for us, and Mikealla really kept us in the game until we found our stride," said coach Claude Paul.
Indeed it was a rough start for the Falcons, as So. Burlington posted 14 shots on Doran in the first.
As the game went on, the Falcons got better.
In the second, the shot margin improved, as NCU allowed 12 shots, but countered with six of their own and Bernier's goal.
The goal came as Whitney was jamming at the puck in the So. Burlington crease and it popped up and over the Rebel-Cougar netminder.
By the time third period hit, North Country found their groove and allowed just two shots, while putting four on the opposition net.
"We really went into shut-down mode later in the game, and the girls did an excellent job turning the other team away," said Paul.
The win gives the girls a 2-1 record for the year, and they will look to keep things moving in the right direction on Saturday when the face Harwood at 5:00.
The game is the first half of a double-header with the boy's team, kicking off another Hockey Night in Jay Peak, which should serve to help fill the void left in the hockey loving community's schedule on Saturday nights.

We bought the Cuisinart Portable Grill at TJ Maxx for $19.99. It is a 14 inch grill that has 150 inches of grilling space. Just add your charcoal and light it up. It comes with a lid that locks on and is vented as well.
We cooked up some burgers, dogs and steaks. It was easy to use, lightweight, small and portable. It also did a great job. We gave the product two thumbs up.

Comments about Outdoor Research Incandescent Hoody (Men's):
This jacket barely adds any weight to your pack and compresses to a size slightly larger than a nalgene bottle. I feel like the durability is not very high just because the jacket is so lightweight, but it's a fair trade off. The jacket is also very warm. Not as warm as a giant, himalayan parka, but warm enough for almost anything in the lower 48.

Toronto 80, Clippers 77
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Tue, 12/18/07, 11:53pm:
The Clippers operate efficiently in the first half. They work a couple of sets for Corey Maggette with some weak side screens; The two-man game with Brevin Knight and Tim Thomas runs smoothly in the first; The Raptors yield the perimeter and the Clips hit their shots; Chris Kaman manages to maneuver low against Rasto Nesterovic. Thornton throws down a monstrous dunk on a drive after moving off the ball to an open space at the right elbow.
So things basically work - though hitting open jumpers makes it a lot easier.
The second half was an entirely different story. The Clips convert four FGMs in the entire third quarter. They get called for a shot clock violation twice in about a two minute span:
- [3rd, 5:48] The Clips are fielding their starters: Knight, Richie Frahm, Maggette, Thomas, and Kaman. Knight brings it up deliberately and finally makes his first pass - over to Corey above the arc on the right side - at :15. It takes Kaman a while, but he eventually frees himself for an entry pass against Nesterovic way off the right mid-post. The ball goes into him at :11. Kaman backs Nesterovic in toward the lane with a couple of left-handed dribbles. Then, at about :08 as Maggette moves to the weak side, his man, Jamario Moon, slides over to double-team Kaman. Kaman sees Frahm across the court out on the left wing beyond the arc. Kaman tries to pass out of the double-team, but Moon deflects the pass out of bounds with :07. The Clippers take timeout.
The Clips will inbound under their own basket. Kaman tries a back screen for Frahm on Anthony Parker, but Parker runs right above it and is fully recovered on Frahm once Frahm gets the ball on the inbound from Knight in the corner. Frahm dribbles along the arc back up top. Corey meets him at the top of the arc and Frahm shuttles the ball over to him at :04. So it's Corey holding it up top at :03 against Moon. Corey has to create. He begins a drive toward the gut of the lane, but Parker has moved off Frahm and is waiting for Corey at the foul line. Corey simultaneously heaves up the ball while trying to draw contact against Parker. Corey has Richie Frahm behind him all alone at the top of the arc if he wants him. The ball squirts out of Maggette's hand; before it's recovered by anyone, we're at :00.
The first fundamental problem is that, for a team that's having trouble getting decent looks in the halfcourt, the Clippers are taking an awfully long time getting set. I don't think they have to throw up the first shot they see, but Knight might want to distribute the ball for the first time before nine seconds have expired on the shot clock. Second, out of the timeout, Kaman has to give Frahm a better screen than the one he offered. But he seems more concerned about rolling off and getting himself free underneath.
Ultimately, it's like most of the second half - the Clips can't do anything off the ball to free themselves up to the open spaces on the floor.
- [3rd, 3:36] Here it is again: Knight's first pass is to Tim Thomas, about 28 feet from the basket at the top of the arc being guarded by Chris Bosh. Thomas gets it, hold it, then returns it to Knight at :13 - about 26 feet from the hoop. Knight dumps it into Kaman off the right mid-post at about :10. The double team comes immediately this time - from Knight's man, Calderon. Knight dives to the hoop, but Parker picks him up. Frahm is now the open man, but he's way, way over on the left wing. Kaman, to his credit, manages to take a dribble that way and free himself up to make the skip pass to Frahm at :06. But Parker closes very quickly and the Toronto rotation resets nicely. Frahm shoots the ball over to Maggette at the top of the arc with about :05. It's Maggette off the dribble against Moon. Again, Maggette drives toward the gut of the lane and, again, Parker slides over to double team. Maggette splits the defenders. As he meets Calderon at about the smiley-face, Corey heaves the ball up, hoping to draw the foul. No call. The ball deflects over to Tim Thomas who isn't mindful of the time. If he's quick, he's got a shot from about 20. But Thomas takes a dribble in. By the time he elevates for his shot, the shot clock has expired.
With only a couple of exceptions, the Clips' defensive rotation is fluent all night. Thomas, with a sprained ankle, does fairly well against Bosh, though the big man misses at least five shots he normally hits.
Most of the turnovers aren't all that careless; they're the result of the Clippers' inability to find shots. It's asking a lot for Kaman to perform against swift double-teams 17 feet away off the mid-post every single night. Maggette can create, but collapsing defenses are starting to get wise to it, especially late in possessions. Until some of the big names return, I'm not sure how the Clippers are supposed to get looks.

REDONDO BEACH, Calif. – NASA's James Webb Space Telescope continues to move ahead rapidly, with Northrop Grumman completing engineering design of the structure that supports the sunshield and keeps it aligned.
The sunshield support structure has passed its Critical Design Review and is now ready to be manufactured. The structure will hold the sunshield in rigid alignment with the spacecraft so that Webb's primary mirrors stay in the sun's shadow and are able to remain cold to detect very faint infrared light.
"This sunshield support structure balances the sunshield's weight and tension so that it remains stable. The structure is very strong, yet quite light, weighing only 63 kilograms or 139 pounds, while supporting the sunshield itself, which weighs 700 kilograms or 1,543 pounds," explained Andy Cohen, Webb spacecraft manager, Northrop Grumman Aerospace Systems. "The spacecraft is the foundation for the entire observatory and it provides the stability, strength and vibration suppression that allows the telescope to operate as designed."
The sunshield support structure also serves to align and stabilize the 30-foot-long sunshield deployment palettes on either side of the telescope. As the telescope unfolds in space after launch, the palettes move from vertical to horizontal and provide a platform for the sunshield layers to unfurl. Keeping the sunshield's alignment from drifting is critical to ensuring that the mirrors stay in the sun's shadow.
Work on Webb's spacecraft continues to move forward with a primary spacecraft model completed at the company's engineering and manufacturing facility in Redondo Beach. The model will be used for integration and access planning and development.
Northrop Grumman is under contract to NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md. for the design and development of Webb's sunshield, telescope and spacecraft.
Successor to the Hubble Space Telescope, the James Webb Space Telescope is the world's next-generation space observatory. It will be the most powerful space telescope ever built. Webb will observe the most distant objects in the universe, provide images of the very first galaxies ever formed and study planets around distant stars. The Webb Telescope is a joint project of NASA, the European Space Agency and the Canadian Space Agency.

THE MORNING SKATE: Red Wings Hangover Edition
In case you missed it, here's Mike Babcock freaking about the Isles' timeout with :20 to go complete with golf clap. It's gold, Jerry! Gold!
I'd like to see Capuano pull this again, if only for the YouTube factor. I don't have too much of a problem with the timeout itself. The Wings didn't have to touch the iced puck if they were interested in ending the game and skipping town. Once they did ice it, I don't have a problem with the time out. My issue is with the first line being out there in the first place. I understand that they were probably looking for a Moulson hat trick but up four you should know Detroit isn't pulling Conklin and a hat trick is unlikely. More importantly, even though Detroit isn't a very physical or dirty team I wouldn't put the team's best players on the ice late in a blowout. If Cap is about preventing injuries — that's another way injuries happen. The safest scenario is one where Tavares & Co. are on the bench, encased in bubble wrap.
Fornabaio has an interview with Garth Snow about the non-reporting and suspended Anton Klementyev. Klementyev was loaned to the Idaho Steelheads of the ECHL and never showed, prompting a suspension from the Islanders.
Would Snow bring him back to Bridgeport? "There'd have to be a lot of conversations going on. I can't give you an informed answer without talking through it with all the parties, Anton, his agent, Brent (Thompson), with the players in the locker room. I don't think it's a positive situation when a player packs up and leaves his teammates."
I mean, how many of us would show up if our job transferred us to Idaho? Seriously though, it's kind of odd when a kid up and disappears like this. It's hard enough trying to cut it as a professional hockey player at 21-years old but factor in doing that on the other side of the world and riding buses around the Northeast while being scratched most nights. Not exactly fun times. It's not hard to see what may be going through his mind here. The Islanders still retain his rights but — just speculating here — I wouldn't be surprised if he pops up in Russia some time soon.
See if you can spot the mixup in this photo (via HF).
Man, haven't seen this one before…
Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano is seeking a private developer for the Nassau Hub, including the 77 acres surrounding Nassau Coliseum, according to Hofstra University president Stuart Rabinowitz.
Mangano is preparing a Request for Qualifications, or RFQ, for the site, Rabinowitz, who is co-vice chairman of the Long Island Regional Economic Development Council, said in an interview after the Council's meeting Tuesday.
Yawn. Wake me when something actually happens. I'm not going to get much into the arena situation during the season — there's plenty of time for that in the summer — but jeez. Welcome to Nassau County; "Eternally chasing our tail."

The comet ISON, discovered by two amateur astronomers last year, will zoom past the Earth next fall. But where did it come from? Astronomer Andrew Fraknoi says a passing star could have flung the comet our way from the Oort Cloud, a distant realm of ice chunks at the outer limits of the solar system.

- 22 of 23
We've mentioned we're digging the textured bob this summer. Hairstylist Tauni Dawson sprayed Oribe's Dry Texture Spray ($39) all over the actress' air-dried locks. Using a one-inch curling iron, she made loose curls in alternating directions. "Don't overwork the hair with the iron--less is more with this look," Dawson says.
- 23 of 23
Once cool, Dawson gave Hough's hair a shake with her hands to make the actress' locks look lived-in. "A deep side part feels sexy," Dawson says. A mist of Oribe's Superfine Strong Hair Spray ($36) secured everything in place.

"Great value for the price."
It has been a year since I bought this retractable leash in Large. I has lasted me this long and I am pleased with this product's performace. The leash holds up well to my 3 year old American Bulldog. It is durable and for the price you pay this leash cannot be beat. Never had any problems with it not retracting properly, which was one of my concerns before buying it. Overall I can say this is a good product and lasts if you take care of it. The only thing that could be improved is the durability of the rubber around the handle which is peeling a bit but does not affect the overall performace.
