Commentary on:
Implications for practice and research
Lung cancer may potentially be added to the list of cancers directly related to diabetes or insulin treatment.
Current evidence is insufficient to consider lung cancer risk as the basis for selecting appropriate diabetes therapy.
Diabetes patients who require insulin therapy for metabolic control should continue to be treated with insulin.
Considerable epidemiological evidence suggests that type 2 diabetes is associated with increased risk of developing various types of malignancies, most notably cancers of the liver, pancreas, endometrium, colorectum, breast and bladder. In contrast, type 2 diabetes has previously not been widely thought to be linked with lung cancer.1 …

Intel Corp. said on Tuesday that it had begun sampling of its code-named Sandy Bridge processors with customers in Q1 2010, about a year ahead of the actual commercial product launch. In addition, the company indicated that its 32nm fabrication process technology is the fastest manufacturing process ever.
Thousands of Sandy Bridge Processors Shipping Now
"We began volume sampling [of Sandy Bridge processors] in Q1, shipping thousands of samples to a broad range of customers and we are planning [to begin] volume production later this year," said Paul Otellini, chief executive officer and president of Intel.
The first Intel Sandy Bridge chips will feature two or four cores with Turbo Boost and Hyper-Threading technology as well as integrated graphics processor that will actually be on the same die as the x86 cores, according to previous reports. The chips will address mainstream market segments currently served by Intel Core i7, Core i5 and Core i3 processors, hence, there will be a lot of different models with 65W (dual-core, quad-core) or 95W (quad-core) thermal design power, according to documents seen by X-bit labs. The new processors will use LGA1155 form-factor and will be compatible with platforms based on the Intel 6-series chipsets code-named Cougar Point. It is noteworthy that while the new 6-series mainstream chipsets support Serial ATA-600 and some other innovations, the USB 3.0 does not seem to be a capability of the core-logic.
The key feature of Sandy Bridge Intel AVX (Advanced Vector Extensions) which, when used by software programmers, will increase performance in floating point, media, and processor intensive software, according to the Intel. Key features of Intel AVX include wider vectors, increasing from 128 bit to 256 bit wide, resulting in up to 2x peak FLOPs output; enhanced data rearrangement, resulting in allowing data to be pulled more efficiently, and three operand, non-destructive syntax for a range of benefits. Intel AVX can also increase energy efficiency beyond the increases brought by the micro-architectural innovations, and is backwards compatible to existing Intel processors.
Some reports claim that six-core and eight-core Sandy Bridge-based designs will become available in Q2 2011 or later, hence, Intel is taking the same strategy as with Westmere micro-architecture and plans to initiate production of less complex processors first with higher-end models following later. The SNB processors will be made using proven 32nm fabrication process, which means that production ramp of the chips may be extremely quick.
32nm – Fastest Ramping Process Technology for Intel
While many other companies are struggling with 45nm/40nm process technologies and even cancel 32nm fabrication processes, thanks to new materials that Intel uses to manufacturing its chips using 32nm process technology, the company claims that the 32nm production ramp is the fastest in its history.
"In our manufacturing environment our factory teams have executed the ramp of our 32nm process superbly. We exceeded output expectations with lower costs than originally anticipated and are currently shipping over fifty SKUs on 32nm process. 32nm is our fastest ramping process ever and I am pleased to note we are accelerating the ramp of our third and fourth 32nm factories faster than our original plan, such that by early Q4 we will have four factories in production on 32nm," said Mr. Otellini.
According to Stacy Smith, chief financial officer of the world's largest chipmaker, in the first quarter Intel ended up shipping more 32nm microprocessors than it first planned, which is the result of resurrection of demand towards personal computers.
Intel on Tuesday reported first-quarter revenue of $10.3 billion and operating income of $3.4 billion, net income of $2.4 billion and earning per share of 43 cents.

2009 Big Orange Roundtable: Week 6
This Week's Roundtable is hosted by:
Rocky Top Talk
This week's Big Orange Roundtable is hosted by Rocky Top Talk and serves up another installment of questions burning in the minds of the orange-clad denizens who follow the Tennessee Volunteers.
In the interest of full disclosure, HSH sent me his responses to this week's questions earlier in the week. In theory, I was then supposed assemble a post including my answers along with his. In theory, this sounds simple … in theory. Reality is quite a different matter. I have been woefully unreliable in terms of my posting of late due to my "real life," and more specifically, my "real job."
Thus, as a result of me being completely backed-up in preparation for an upcoming trial (a/k/a "evidence manipulation conference") I am yet again forced to punt—at least for the moment. This is particularly annoying considering how great the questions are this week. Thus, for now the only answers I have to offer are those from HSH—which is probably a good thing considering that he actually knows what he's talking about. I will try to add in my responses later, if possible. Until then, however, here are HSH's thoughts for the week:
Week 6
1) Which newcomer do you expect to play the most total snaps for the Vols this fall?
HSH: Well, by the looks of things, we know for sure it won't be Bryce Brown, though he may be the best talent of the freshmen.
Though I have trouble remembering him actually being a freshman, it almost has to be Montori Hughes at defensive tackle, simply because of the lack of depth at defensive tackle and the sore, wobbly knees of senior end-turned-tackle Wes Brown. With Brown's knees, its almost more a question of when as opposed to if they're going to take him out of action. I have to take this moment to say his never-quit attitude and what he's been saying about his situation has him rapidly climbing up my favorite 2009 Vols.
Back to Hughes, I said he doesn't seem like a freshman because of three things: first, he's obviously from the 2008 class out of Siegel High School in middle Tennessee, but didn't qualify. Secondly, he enrolled in January, so he was in for the spring, so it's like he's been at UT for longer than the other freshman. Finally, it's because he's a very large man. Either way, it's clear he's moved up to the third tackle spot, behind Williams and Brown and ahead of Victor Thomas, Rae Sykes and Marlon Walls.
But given the situation at defensive tackle behind Big Dan Williams, Hughes has to be the freshman who will see the most action.
As for the "true" freshman with the most impact, I'll say receiver Marsalis Teague. I went to last Thursday's practice and last Saturday's scrimmage, and Teague had some impressive plays. I think Gerald Jones and Brandon Warren will be the top 2 wideouts, but Teague is my third (and Quintin Hancock fourth), given the injury to Denarius Moore. Also, Teague seems like more a pure receiver than Nu'Keese Richardson in my opinion.
Lawvol: (Long thoughtful pause followed by a longer, yet less thoughtful, sucking sound…)

NFL draft redux : Reprojecting the first round of the 2013 draft
The NFL's 2013 season is just one game shy of being complete, but Super Bowl Sunday is still more than a week away (and no, we're not counting the All-Star farce that is the Pro Bowl). That gives us the perfect vantage point to look back one last time at the first round of April's draft, and consider what would change if we knew then what we know now ?
A few reminders about our annual re-draft of the first round: Rookie season production always carries significant weight in this hypothetical exercise, more so than projection or potential. But it's not everything. If there were first-rounders who underachieved this season, they might still make our re-draft, perhaps just not in the same spot they originally went.
In the span of time, plenty of the picks that were made in 2013 might prove to have been for the best. But as always, using a current version of hindsight, we tried to link up teams with players who would have been useful due to the specific circumstances of the 2013 season. We also again kept the first-round order as it unfolded on the first night of the draft, rather than adding the complicating layer of un-doing trades.
I shouldn't have to say this by now, but don't forget: Your results may vary ...
1. Kansas City Chiefs
(Original pick: Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan)
Re-do pick : Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri
Fisher looked lost at right tackle early in the season and really didn't start playing with much consistency and command of his position until the final weeks of the schedule. But Richardson was a disruptive and productive force from Day 1 for the Jets, and he excelled at stuffing the run, while also proving he could regularly find his way into the backfield (15.5 tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks, 33 quarterback pressures). Richardson, who got my vote for the league's Defensive Rookie of the Year, even turned into a useful Jumbo fullback late in the year and scored a pair of goal-line situation touchdowns.

Love this pack

Comments about CamelBak Pit Boss™:
I bought this pack with an eye towards hiking Tuckerman's next spring with my kids and thought it would help with carrying the skis and my board as well as making it unnecessary to lug along clunky water bottles. I just used it on a regular ski day at the mountain with my kids and wife in snowy conditions with temps -5F to 10F. First I was able to attach my board and both kids skis to the pack. Awesome to not have to carry their skis or to have them drop them as they normally do. Getting to the lifts and back to the car has never been easier. Inside I packed extra hand warmers and layers (it was really cold), 3 liters of water, and all our phones and wallets into the easy to reach top flap. We were all able to get water every lift, the tube only got frozen at the tip once even though I was never able to get the insulator back on the tube (my only complaint about the system, maybe they can come up with a velcro fix for this). it did fine in the therminator harness. If I ski that cold again I might stick a hand warmer in the harness just to make sure. Exceeded my needs and its comfortable and looks good. Perfect
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The European Commission has announced that it had sent a statement of objection (SO) to Microsoft Corp. The Commission believes that Microsoft's tying of its web browser Internet Explorer to its dominant client PC operating system Windows infringes the EC Treaty rules on abuse of a dominant position. As a consequence, the EC claims, other markets of web browsers cannot compete against Microsoft's IE, which reduces consumer's choice.
The SO is based on the legal and economic principles established in the judgment of the Court of First Instance of 17 September 2007 (case T-201/04), in which the Court of First Instance upheld the Commission's decision of March 2004, finding that Microsoft had abused its dominant position in the PC operating system market by tying Windows Media Player to its Windows PC operating system.
The evidence gathered during the investigation leads the Commission to believe that the tying of Internet Explorer with Windows, which makes Internet Explorer available on 90% of the world's PCs, distorts competition on the merits between competing web browsers insofar as it provides Internet Explorer with an artificial distribution advantage which other web browsers are unable to match. The Commission is concerned that through the tying, Microsoft shields Internet Explorer from head to head competition with other browsers which is detrimental to the pace of product innovation and to the quality of products which consumers ultimately obtain. In addition, the Commission is concerned that the ubiquity of Internet Explorer creates artificial incentives for content providers and software developers to design websites or software primarily for Internet Explorer which ultimately risks undermining competition and innovation in the provision of services to consumers.
The Statement of Objections states that the remedies put in place by the U.S. courts in 2002 following antitrust proceedings in Washington, D.C. do not make the inclusion of Internet Explorer in Windows lawful under European Union law.
"We are committed to conducting our business in full compliance with European law. The company is also afforded an opportunity to request a hearing, which would take place after the submission of this response. Under EU procedure, the European Commission will not make a final determination until after it receives and assesses Microsoft's response and conducts the hearing, should Microsoft request one," Microsoft said in its statement.
If the preliminary views expressed in the SO are confirmed, the Commission may impose a fine on Microsoft, require Microsoft to cease the abuse and impose a remedy that would restore genuine consumer choice and enable competition on the merits, said the EC.
It is unclear how consumers are supposed to get competing Internet browsers if they do not have a browser built into the operating system itself.

This past year I've been drinking japanese greens and yancha. I've been receiving emails from various vendors announcing that they've begun to stock 2014 harvest chinese greens and I'm thinking about placing a small order. Has anyone tried tea from this harvest yet?
Tea Trekker labels most of their teas AA or AA+ while Jing labels most of theirs AAA and small quantities are half the price. Even with quick vendor action Tea Trekker teas will arrive in a few days, Jing in a few weeks. The third tea shop I've bought from in recent years is Seven Cups but they don't have any 2014 teas yet.
I'm curious to know who people are buying from and what they're buying. This subject is so much quieter than discussion of japanese greens.

Lessons afloat
By DAVID A. BROWN
Published May 19, 2007
As long as you don't bring a handheld GPS unit to mark his fishing spots, Capt. Mike Locklear gladly will teach you what you need to know for a safe, productive day on the water.
"I don't mind showing people around, but if I think that they're just out there to (identify) my fishing spots, I'll take them to where they can catch jacks and catfish, " Locklear joked.
That's a reasonable expectation - learn the basics, but don't exploit the knowledge and experience a professional guide uses to make a living. Most who lead others on the water feel the same.
The bottom line is this: Learning how to find your own fishing holes is infinitely more valuable than simply running to a spot someone showed you in confidence. Call it business etiquette or common courtesy, but those who hire guides will do well to focus more on the how and when, than on the where.
A day of learning
Recently, Keith Lozott drove to Homosassa from Polk County and met Locklear at MacRae's Marina. Locklear would be his fishing guide, but also his instructor.
"I don't care what we fish for - I just want to learn how to fish this area, " Lozott said as we boarded Locklear's 24-foot tower skiff.
Locklear graciously invited me to tag along, provided that I stayed out of the way and refrained from excessive talking. The deal worked and I noted several nuggets of wisdom during casual conversations.
Where to look
On this day, we faced a morning low tide that prevented us from approaching the island shorelines Locklear wanted to fish. No problem. We kept busy with a warmup exercise.
As we waited for the tide to rise, we drifted across a shallow bay and worked the waters around shallow limestone outcroppings that rose from about 2 1/2 feet to just below the surface.
Locklear kept watch for snagging hazards and occasionally advised us to modify our retrieves accordingly. "Keep your rod tips up guys, we're coming up on a bunch of rocks, " he said.
He also told us to look for changes in water color when targeting our casts. Actually, it's often the bottom composition showing through the shallow brine, but Locklear said that understanding the difference between the deep browns of rocks and the white tones of sand will help keep you in the strike zone.
"One shade off the white is what you want, " Locklear said in reference to the trout's preference for the perimeter of rock structures.
"Now these trout have soft mouths, so you don't want to lay into them, " he said.
The trick, Locklear said, is to fish soft plastic jerk baits with the hooks exposed. That improves hookups and eliminates the need for stern hook sets that often result in lost trout.
When the tide rose sufficiently, Locklear began working island shorelines. As we rounded the tip of a particular key, the captain instructed Lozott to keep his eyes peeled for movement.
A broad, sandy area attracts large stingrays and their foraging stirs up crustaceans that free-loading cobia gobble. Find the rays, Locklear pointed out, and you often find cobia.
Later, we made our way out to the St. Martin's Keys, northwest of the Homosassa River Channel. The wind was blowing about 10-15 knots, but Locklear instinctively targeted the leeward shores.
"As soon as we get around this corner, it'll be a lot calmer and those redfish will probably be stacked up in there, " Locklear said.
As we rounded an island point, the wind-driven water transitioned through a rippled sand ridge and quickly dropped into placid brine. We peeked into the shoreline pocket and immediately saw the blue tails and silver-white belly flashes of active reds
One of the reasons Locklear runs a towerboat is the inherent vantage point. From his elevated perch, he pointed out the smattering of treacherous rock clusters scattered randomly throughout area waters.
Rocks represent a blessing and a curse. They attract plenty of fish, but they also claim a lot of propellers.
As Locklear noted, newcomers are wise to stay in the marked channels. And if you see a lone PVC pipe standing in the middle of an open area, you can bet some benevolent soul has placed it there to warn others of a rock they probably found the hard way.
By day's end, Lozott had boated a half-dozen redfish, a handful of trout and released his first flounder.
"This is just a great fishery, " he said of Locklear's classroom.
Who said school isn't cool?

What you should know about the HPV-cervical cancer connection, and how to protect yourself against this common sexually transmitted infection.
When a woman's Pap smear�a test for detecting precancerous or cancerous cervical cells�is abnormal, and she is diagnosed with human papilloma virus (HPV), she may feel pretty worried. After all, each year, American women develop more than 20,000 HPV-related cancers. Cervical cancer is the most common, but HPV is also associated with other cancers such as vulva, vaginal, penile, anal and throat cancer. While a HPV diagnosis is troubling�and certainly nothing to take lightly�in most cases, there is no need to panic. The HPV virus appears to be able to "clear" on its own in young, healthy women, so a woman who receives an abnormal Pap one year may have a normal one the following year. �At least 80 percent of young women will be HPV positive at some point,� says Mary Jane Minkin, MD, clinical professor at�Yale School of Medicine�s Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences and author of�A Woman's Guide to Sexual Health. In other words, most instances of the virus won't progress to full-blown cancer. Still, no one can assume her body will clear the virus�particularly women ages 30 and older. Additionally, while most types of HPV resolve spontaneously, certain strains of the virus are more likely to persist and cause precancerous cell changes that can lead to cervical lesions. So the more you know about HPV and how to avoid it, the safer you�ll be. Below are ways to guard yourself against this ubiquitous sexually transmitted infection. Get vaccinated.�The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved two HPV vaccines.�Gardasil�protects against four strains of the virus (out of more than 100), says Minkin: �The high-risk �baddies� are strains 16 and 18, which account for about 70 percent of cervical cancers.� Strains 6 and 11 are responsible for yucky warts. That�s why Gardasil protects against those four.� The other vaccine,�Cervarix, protects against HPV 16 and 18 but not HPV-related warts. Both are given in three injections over six months. �All kids�girls and boys�need to be immunized,� says Minkin. Both vaccines are approved for ages 9-25. It�s best to get the vaccine before becoming sexually active. Some insurance plans cover the vaccines, as does Medicaid, and both manufacturers also offer help for those who can�t afford them (about $130 per dose).� The vaccines are not approved for people over age 26 because studies have not shown them to be effective in older people, but women 26+ can protect themselves by getting regular screenings for HPV, following up on abnormal results, having limited sexual partners (one, preferably), and making sure any sexual partner is infection-free.� Stop smoking.��That�s the best possible [step],� says Minkin. �There�s a strong association between cervical cancer and smoking.� A 2008 study at�Pennsylvania State University College of Medicine�found in a lab experiment that exposure to a high concentration of a key carcinogen in cigarette smoke resulted in a ten-fold increase in one of the HPV strains, HPV 31. Insist on condoms.��Always use condoms, if you are not in a mutually monogamous situation,� says Minkin. �If a teenager tells me she�s only having sex with one boy, I ask who the boy was with before her. If she answers �Susie�and she�s a �ho��I gently remind her that without a condom she�s having sex with Susie also.� Still, condoms can�t protect you completely: HPV can be spread by oral, anal or genital contact. Get regular Pap smears.��Most of the time in young healthy women, HPV does clear with the help of the woman�s immune system,� says Minkin. �That�s why we no longer do Paps in women under 21.� According to the�National Cancer Institute, women should have a Pap test every three years from age 21 on.� However, women who are HIV-positive need Pap smears once or twice a year. And women who have had an HPV vaccine still need to have regular Pap smears. Know the treatments.�If your Pap test indicates some mild cell irregularities, your doctor will follow you more closely, says Minkin, hoping they clear up.� If they don�t, there are a number of treatment options your physician might consider. One, a procedure called�loop electrosurgical excision procedure�(LEEP), involves cutting away abnormal tissue. �But recent data shows that women who have LEEPs may have pregnancy difficulties such as pre-term deliveries,� says Minkin. �We only do LEEPs or a cone biopsy��the removal of a cone-shaped tissue sample from the cervix to test for cancer��if we see precancerous changes.� This article originally appeared as on Spry Living

The old tools are the best tools...
It's funny how one's musical aspirations become all frisky when you take on board the potential offered by a new leap in computer performance. Loads more number-crunching power means I can do loads more things more quickly. That's the usual mind-set. And yet, while prepping a remix of a client's heavy metal tracks the other day, I found myself reaching for the same old tools and using them in the same old ways.
I recall, way back when, the excitement generated by such programs as Cubase for Audio and Cakewalk Pro and their simultaneous audio/MIDI-handling capabilities, as mentioned in a recent FM retrospective on issue 7. And there was a new buzz to be had every time developments at Intel or Apple led to more powerful computers becoming available. This, accompanied by each new version of such programs as Logic, Cubase, Reason and the like, was enough to keep one's ambitions continually ramping up, with ever more outrageous musical concepts becoming ever more feasible.
I'll confess that I reached a fuse-blowing moment a few days ago, what with Cubase 4 to master and Live 6 to shake down in the usual magazine-deadline-looms-so-get-them-sorted-quick kind of way. That, along with porting all of my plug-ins from my now dead PC to my Mac and updating them to the latest versions, started to hurt my brains. Then came word of Apple's plan to not only incorporate 3TB of storage into its next-gen MacPro workstations, but to use eight-core processors. Not dual or quad core – they've been and gone and done that already. Eight cores? Much as I like technology, things have been getting a little heavy lately.
Hence it was refreshing to dip into some heavy metal, all rendered as wave files, give it some light EQ and a splash of ambience, then just compress the shit out of it. No samplers, virtual synths, mixer automation or nowt, just straight-ahead rock music that uses a mere fraction of the Mac's capabilities when mixing.
The metal client said "cor" when he saw the amount of technology I could deploy and I didn't have the heart to tell him that I was planning to use only a wee bit of it for the session. It did make me think, however. Often, the old tools are the best tools because they've been proven to work. The greater flexibility offered by many updates is sometimes not needed, although enhanced stability is always welcome. And one doesn't always need an extra 2GB of RAM, a certain ROMpler library, the latest capabilities of a sequencer or the fastest processor available to adequately realise a musical idea. Keeping up with the latest technology is part of my job as a journalist, but as a musician I can afford to slow down and smell the roses. Technology, or rather the lack of it, need not hinder one's aspirations. It's a case of getting on and doing it with what you have, even if it does take a little more time and effort. News of new tech does create a sense of anticipation, but it shouldn't be an excuse to put things off until you can afford to buy in.
Right, how much for another PowerCore?

Chief executive officer of Advanced Micro Devices said that the chip designer was not looking for a strategic investor, however, the company would be "happy" to discuss any potential deals that may be of interest to the company's current shareholders. Mr. Meyer was responding to an assumption that Oracle could buy AMD.
"AMD is not for sale, but we are happy to listen to any proposal which is in the interest to our shareholders," said Dirk Meyer at industry conference, reports Reuters news-agency.
The assumption that Oracle could acquire AMD was said by a financial analyst after Larry Ellison, chief exec of Oracle, an enterprise software and hardware company, said that the industry giant was looking forward acquiring semiconductor companies in order to boost its technology portfolio.
Even though AMD may look a compelling target from server and high-performance computing perspective, the company is unlikely to fit Oracle. The lion's share of AMD's revenue comes from consumer hardware and Oracle is a company that will hardly jump onto those markets. Obviously, paying billions for AMD and then dropping their primary businesses does not seem to be a good idea. Moreover, even server chips of AMD are likely to drop in popularity among server makers should AMD lose its neutrality.
It is noteworthy, however, that while AMD is not for sale, its head would be "happy" to listen to proposals about selling off the chip design company.

One thing I notice right off the bat is the yeast: they are using cake yeast and no sugar. They are adding salt, which I heard kills the yeast? Also, I'd like to hear comments on what yeast you use and please indicate where I can get it.
Thanks - Mark

I use Instant yeast. SAF brand. I got the idea from Alton Brown pizza episode when it first aired (as I'm sure some other around here did too). Anyway, check your local grocery store to see if they carry it. If not it can be ordered online from several sources. One of them being:
It supposedly will last a year (frozen?) but the bag I have is about 15 months old and its still good. I took Alton Browns advice and keep it in the freezer. He says he keeps some in the fridge and reinforcement in the freezer. I keep it all in the freezer and just add it to the flour. No need to worry about it being frozen.
Edit and P.S. I have read somewhere (possibly on here) that all commercial yeast is the same strain. If this is true then it doesn't matter what brand/type you use other than methods of use and convenience.

The classic Neapolitan dough as it is generally made in Italy today uses a 00 flour (like the Caputo 00 flour), water, compressed cake yeast and salt. That's it. No sugar and no olive oil.
Salt and yeast have a love-hate relationship, but they need each other to make a good dough. It is considered best not to combine the salt and yeast in water because salt is indeed injurious to the yeast. In the woodstone piece, the salt and water are combined and then the yeast and flour are added. However, the time of contact of the yeast and salt is momentary and unlikely to cause any harm to the yeast. In the U.S, and possibly in Italy as well, the cake yeast is sometimes crumbled right into the flour, without any proofing in water.
Cake yeast can be replaced by either active dry yeast (ADY) or instant dry yeast (IDY). To convert from cake yeast to ADY, divide the weight of the cake yeast by 1/2; to convert from cake yeast to IDY, divide the weight of the cake yeast by 1/3. ADY typically needs to be proofed (rehydrated) in water before using. IDY doesn't need proofing before using. It is mixed dry directly into the flour. ADY and IDY can be found in most supermarkets, in the baking section, under names such as Fleischmann's, SAF, and Red Star. If you plan to do a lot of baking, it is usually far cheaper on a unit basis to buy a one-pound bag of it. Many of our members have been able to find the one-pound bags in places like Costco's or Sam's, but they are also available from places like King Arthur and several other places online. I have gone almost exclusively to IDY. Many professional pizza operators use the cake yeast, mainly for cost reasons (it's cheaper than the other forms), but even they are increasingly moving toward IDY because of the convenience and also because IDY is far less perishable than cake yeast, which must be used quickly, before it goes bad.

Salt & Yeast: Osmotic pressure
Reply #4 on:
March 21, 2005, 07:17:12 AM »
I keep hearing that salt and yeast cannot be combined in the water before adding the flour.
Before saying that, people should consider what actually the salt does to the yeast.
Basically, salt exerts what is called osmotic pressure, which means that salt attracts the water present in the environment around it. Sugar has a similar effect, even if at a lesser extent.
At the same time, the osmotic pressure slows down the action of yeast in a dough.
We should also consider that different salt types, have different hydroscopic properties (the capacity of be dissolved in water), with the sea salt being the best.
Now, if you dissolve the salt in the water, and then into this "brine" dissolve the yeast (like Neapolitan have been doing for ages) the osmotic pressure will be the same as if you add the two separate, as well as the salt will be already dissolved and have absorbed enough water, which will have reduced its osmotic pressure.
The only other thing to consider, would be the effect of salt on the formation of gluten, but this is another story.
I hope to have helped to understand one more aspect of Neapolitan dough.

Thank you all for the replies. I would like to try IDY or cake, as I have no experience with using them. I ordered my 00 flour last night and also the 6-in-1 tomatoes. Only thing left is finding the cheese!

Thank you for your explanation on yeast and salt.
My practice, based on what I have read from people like Tom Lehmann of the AIB and elsewhere, is not to directly combine yeast and salt, whether alone or in water, and certainly not for a prolonged time. As I noted recently at another thread (see Reply #48 at
), I experimented recently with combining and mixing yeast, water and salt for several minutes and did not detect any noticeable harm to the yeast. I attributed this to the better and more durable yeasts that yeast producers now produce. But the concern I have noted from my reading is the osmosis concern, with the salt, especially if there is too much of it, drawing water from the yeast due to its hygroscopic nature and degrading the performance of the yeast. It would seem to me that to avoid all possible problems, one should keep the salt and yeast separate as much as possible. Doesn't that make sense as a general guideline, especially to people who may abuse the process? Most pizza operators and home pizza makers aren't aware of the chemistry involved.
Sometime when you have a chance, I would like to hear your explanation on the role of salt and gluten. Also on the effects of salt on the rate of fermentation and duration of fermentation and the quality of the finished crust (apart from the salt flavor). I have noted that many recipes I have seen for Neapolitan style doughs seem to call for a fair amount of salt, as high as 2.8% (baker's percent). Is that typical and is there a specific reason for it?

Hi Peter
I don't have much time now, but I will briefly cover few points, then maybe I'll start a different tread to continue.
I don't agree with you that adding the yeast and salt separate it is better, but I'll cover it later. Test on the brine example are explained in Pyler book, that with no offence, I believe is a much more reliable source then Lehmann or anybody else. In fact I believe it is the bible of Baking science.
Yes, Neapolitan dough does have a lot of salt (I would say in average 45-55g per litre of water), and that is for various reasons:
-Gluten development
-Effect on the ripening (maturation) of the dough (effect on enzymes), extending the usability of the dough.
We need also to consider the strenght of flour used, the hardnes of the water, etc.
However there are some negative aspects when adding too much salt. As I said before, the quality of the dough shows when the pizza become cold.
Too much salt, as for example 60g per litre, added in the water before mixing, will result in a gummy crumb once cooled.
I need to go now, but I ll try to continue on a different tread, tonight.

On the matter of yeast and salt, I found this excerpt from a baking website, at
"It's perfectly fine to add yeast and salt at the same time. Despite the common myth, salt will not kill the yeast. Perhaps it was a problem in the past, but today's yeast are hearty enough that they aren't harmed by contact with the salt. (However, don't scale and combine yeast and salt in advance, or allow them to come in contact with each other for an extended period, because that could cause harm)."

Quick reply.
Almost everyplace I worked mixed the yeast into salt water.
More later.

Vote yes to let judges serve until age 80
Proposition 6 is the last question New Yorkers will be asked on their ballots on Nov. 5. It's a state constitutional amendment to raise the mandatory retirement age for state judges from 70 to 80. We recommend you vote yes.
Currently, elected judges can get three two-year extensions to serve until a maximum age of 76, as long as they're healthy. For appointed judges, however, like those on the state Court of Appeals, 70 is the firm cutoff. That forced former Court of Appeals Chief Judge Judith Kaye to retire in 2008, even though she said she wasn't ready to. She continues to have a productive career in private legal practice.
How many other 70-somethings do you know who continue to have their act together enough to continue careers and, in some cases, to be better than ever at their jobs? We know many and see no reason to force them out to pasture.
Of all jobs, this is one that requires wisdom and insight – qualities traditionally seen as increasing as one ages, as long as dementia or other ailments are held at bay. Certainly a 70-year-old judge who's completed his or her term is entitled to retire, if desired, but if not, it shouldn't be mandated.
This is especially true now that people are living so much longer than in 1869, when the age cap was passed. It's an outdated law that's due for a change. Today's 70 is probably 1869's 55.
Thirty-two states plus Washington, D.C., have mandatory retirement ages for judges, mostly instituted at a time when there was not yet a process for getting rid of judges who were in mental or physical decline.
There is no age limit for New York legislators, governors or heads of state agencies; they can hold their jobs until they die. Why judges?
Plus, it's generally more expensive for taxpayers to force a state employee to retire and draw a pension, only to be replaced by another salaried employee. We're paying them either way – a pension or a salary – and if they want to keep giving the people their hard work in return for the money, why stop them?
Some Republicans took issue with the timing of this amendment, since it would allow Jonathan Lippman, the current chief judge of the Court of Appeals and a reliable liberal, to continue after he turns 70 in May 2015. This is not just about him, though. The Office of Court Administration estimates that it might let up to 40 judges remain on the bench within the next four years. Over the ensuing decades, it may affect hundreds of judges, of all predispositions.
The New York City Bar Association adds another reason to vote yes: "Despite growing caseloads, the number of positions authorized for trial level judges has remained constant and there is little prospect that more positions will be authorized. By ensuring that experienced, productive judges continue to serve, the amendment provides the clearest path to increase judicial capacity in the foreseeable future."
We're not sure an age cap for judges is necessary at all, but if it can't be eliminated, it should be pushed back.

Do the Jackets make their first ever playoff appearance?
I say they eek into the playoffs but not without some drama along the way. If they drop back to back to Chicago and the St. Louis game should be a hell of a battle.

AT&T posted gains in revenue and net income for the third quarter of 2013, with gains in mobile phone and U-verse TV subscribers driving the growth.
AT&T has reported revenue of US $31.4 billion for the first quarter of 2013, down slightly from a year earlier, although net income was up slightly, with a sagging wireline business division nearly offsetting mobile and wired broadband growth.
AT&T reported revenue of US $31.5 billion for the third quarter of this year, flat compared to the third quarter of 2011, while net income was up slightly to $3.6 billion.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

I gave this the other try last night using some material off a Fu brick and some milk on the stove. It was vile.
SO, while the basics are pretty self explanatory - simmer milk, put in tea - vital details are missing; the ratio of milk to dry mass, whether or not pu (or fu) should be blanched first, how long it's to be simmered at a minimum.
I was playing it by ear and the result was hilariously toxic.
I've heard this method is one of two common ways Fu is prepared in Tibet (the other being a reduction of the leaves to a syrup, which is mixed with butter and milk to make Tibetian Butter Tea), so I'm interested in this method mostly within the context of using Fu. However, that's not the only tea possible (strongly cooked Assam in milk is the base for some forms of masala chai), so I'm leaving this in "General" unless Chip says otherwise.
En avant!

Diamond Aircraft denied loanTuesday, May 17th, 2011
Diamond Aircraft was notified May 17 that it will not get the $35 million loan ($36 million U.S.) that was characterized by the company as critical for the future of the D-Jet and the future of the company. The company laid off half its workers while waiting on news about the loan. The company says it has "other doors" to try where funding might be available–even in a recession. One of those is the China option (maybe a purchase?), where Diamond has a plant. Workers previously laid off will continue to be picked off by other aerospace companies while top officials look for ways to fund the jet program. Hopefully one of the doors Diamond is knocking on will open soon.

Acorn, Milton
Acorn, Milton 1923–
Acorn is a Canadian poet and editor. His work is often political in content, revealing the poet's leftist and nationalist sympathies. The poet's concern for establishing the rhythms of the human voice in his work is reflected in a poetic diction stressing common speech and idiomatic expressions. A native of Prince Edward Island, Acorn creates poetry informed by the natural beauty of the Canadian landscape. His finest work is characterized by its driving rhythms and vivid natural imagery.
Milton Wilson
Milton Acorn's The Brain's the Target … deserves the place of hour among Ryerson Press's current crop of chapbooks…. Mr. Acorn's work has been getting better and better during the past five years, and he seems about to become a very convincing and solid writer indeed. Such "solidity" is most obvious in his habits of speech—in the crushed rhythms, heavy alliterations, and words like boulders which have become his trademark…. The verse wrests whatever freedom it has from a rhythm of hard blows against an unyielding texture. But for Mr. Acorn society too is a dialectic of will and resistance; only here the struggle can be mutually destructive. As in that T.V. ringside poem "The Fights," "the brain's the target," whittled away until nothing human is left. I wish that Ryerson (or the author) had seen fit to represent the poet of society and the poet of ideas more adequately. In The Brain's the Target the Maritime regionalist (admirable in himself) is allowed to overshadow the debater, and Mr. Acorn's development seems truncated. That development displays a solidity of its own and has proceeded not by a process of reaction or attrition, but by accumulation like a snowball. The lyricist, the regional scene painter, the sketcher of people, the social protester, the muscle-bound arguer, these don't exclude one another; as a poem like "Mike" makes clear, nothing poetic or geographical has been finally rejected on the roads between Charlottetown and Toronto and Montreal. Because Mr. Acorn stands so obviously apart from the characteristic fashions of recent Canadian verse, one is likely to overrate his potentialities. Still, if, in due course, he doesn't produce one of the best books of the Canadian 60's, I shall be much surprised. (p. 395)
Milton Wilson, "Letters in Canada: 1960," edited by F. W. Watt, in University of Toronto Quarterly (reprinted by permission of University of Toronto Press), Vol. XXX, No. 4, July, 1961, pp. 380-401.
Dorothy Livesay
[Many poets of the sixties] seem to be becoming somewhat fatigued by cerebral and mythopoeic poetry. There is a return to Imagism; and with that return lyricism inevitably canters alongside. (p. 33)
Of all contemporary Canadian poets, Milton Acorn is most at home as a part of this development…. As he describes it, he grew into poetry the hard, unschooled way:
I started to write in iambic patterns…. Iambic was theoretically based on the 'natural' rhythms of the English language…. But among the great majority of people living on the North American continent the speech patterns (stress and rhythm) have changed. Iambic no longer fits.
Acorn first began to break with the iambic pattern from listening to seamen talk…. His aim was "a line that flowed more in terms of their own natural idiom". [He] began to grow away from the iambic pattern, while yet maintaining a unity of structure based essentially on strong-stress (ballad) rhythms. (pp. 33-4)
Notable in [his poem "Charlottetown Harbour"] is the lack of overt emotion and the absence of metaphor or symbol. We are presented with a still-life painting in the Imagist tradition. Generally Acorn's early work seems to follow this Imagist pattern of minute detail, enclosing an internal movement which is created by the use of phrasal rather than clausal utterances. Yet Acorn is a poet unable to sit still for long: man interacting on scene is what really interests him. (p. 35)
Even in his first book it is apparent that Acorn's poetry is beginning to eschew description, or even simile and metaphor, in favour of a more dramatic presentation. The landscape is now acted upon, as in the poem, "Old Property"…. There is no internal juncture [in this poem as there is in some of Acorn's work] and even end-juncture is disguised by run-on lines…. The effect is to emphasize word or phrase at the beginning of the line. From now on, this will be one of Acorn's chief technical devices…. [In parts of this poem] he extends himself farther than imagism, into symbolism. And from there on he questions, questions. (pp. 35-6)
[There] are three aspects to Acorn's style, evident in both his early and his late poems. These are: vivid imagery, rhythmic progression, and the ability to create a synthesis of what has gone before…. [The] poet works on his material, activates it and re-creates it into a new synthesis. He succesfully integrates form and content. (p. 37)
It is as an experimentation with form that Milton Acorn's poems...

George Bowering
Al Purdy and Milton Acorn have a lot in common, especially in the recent history of Canadian poetry. They both came to maturity at about the same time in the early sixties, not at an early age for either of them. They edited a magazine together in Montreal where Purdy was working in a mattress factory and Acorn was selling his carpenter's tools. Acorn was flopping at Purdy's flat, reading Purdy's library, and being introduced to Purdy's poet-influences, Layton, Dudek, et al. More than one reader thought at the time that Acorn was a pen-name for Purdy. That was all more than ten years ago. Now it is fitting, not to mention fortunate for Acorn, that Purdy edits the selected poems of his old pal [in I've Tasted My Blood: Poems 1956 to 1968]. (p. 84)
Having so many good poems together in one book convinces me that Acorn is not only honest and exciting, as no one has ever doubted, but also very much accomplished as an artist, not so much the natural beast as he has often been envisioned:
so man's truest home is the wind
created of his breath
and he breathes deepest in mystery.
That kind of imagination has as much root in Acorn's earlier trade of carpentry … as does his celebrated socialism. He is still resolved to make his lines run true, to make the sounds render their finest possibilities lying in rime...
(The entire section is 563 words.)
Robin Endres
The title of [More Poems for People] is from Poems for People by Dorothy Livesay, to whom it's dedicated, and who "began in this book the tradition of Canadian poets who dedicated their poems and their lives to the working class."… It consists of 47 poems, one prose allegory "The Garbageman is Drunk", and two essays, "On Not Being Banned by the Nazis" … and "What are the Odds?" (a discussion of the possibilities and tactics of resistance should the American Empire invade Canada). Over two thirds of the poems are explicitly political…. Some, like "The Schooner Blue Goose" and "The Microscopic Army Ants of Corsica" are witty political allegory. There are also about a half dozen love lyrics, and an equal number of poems about poetry and the craft of writing.
When Acorn views the Canadian landscape … it isn't a barren wasteland of unnamed horrors, but a land inhabited by the people who work it—miners, Indians, northern Québécois. And there's more than a semantic difference between seeing these people as victims and seeing them as the exploited producers of surplus value in our resource-extracted economy. Some of the landscape or nature poems which don't describe people seem deceptively lyrical, out of place in this book, because of their quite different calm and meditative tone. Actually, Acorn is making a political point in a poem such as "The Mine is Also of Nature":

"I can't wait to" ... this is the tag line for this year's Girl Scout recruitment activities. Last Sunday, First Lady Michelle Obama was featured in a public service announcement for Girl Scouts on the importance of volunteering. Please find this video on our website at www.girlscoutssa.org or at www.girlscouts.org.
Those of us who work for Girl Scouts know our volunteers are wonderful. There isn't a day that goes by that I don't have some amazing moment or insight brought to me by a GSSA volunteer. But our problem is always the same - finding adults who are willing to take the time from their busy calendars to become a volunteer. This year, we are running behind where we were last year in recruitment, and not because we don't have interested girls. We have lists of girls in every area who want to participate, but we haven't identified adults who will share their time. If you know someone who might be interested, please have her check out the First Lady's video and the opportunities to volunteer on our website.
GSUSA is conducting a contest for councils, and the council with the most people who visit www.girlscouts.org and express an interest in volunteering will win $5,000 for their council. There are lots of things we can provide the girls with for $5,000. That would make possible some exciting programs that are currently beyond our budget. Or we could purchase another zip line installation or three stand-up paddle boards for camp.
Please help us make the world a better place by encouraging adults you know, who have an interest in girls, by encouraging them to volunteer by going to www.girlscoutsorg and clicking on volunteer. It will take them to the volunteer page on our website where there is information on how to join us in growing girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place!.

Water quality standards pose challenge for treatment plant
MARSHALL – The agenda at Tuesday night's meeting of the Marshall City Council included several informational presentations. However, not all the news presented to council members was good. In one item of business, Marshall wastewater treatment plant superintendent Bob VanMoer and Marshall City Engineer Glenn Olson said the city faces big challenges related to water-quality standards for the Redwood River.
VanMoer gave council members an update on the process to renew the wastewater plant's permit to discharge water into the Redwood River. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency has proposed new, lower limits for chemicals like chlorides, copper and phosphorus in wastewater that won't be easy for the plant to meet.
"No matter what we do, it's going to cost us a lot of money," VanMoer said. "There's no fast or easy solution."
VanMoer and Olson said the city will be working with the MPCA and engineering consultants Bolton & Menk to try and work out solutions.
New limits for chlorides, copper and phosphorus in discharged water were proposed for the Marshall wastewater plant in March. In particular, VanMoer said, the limit on chlorides in discharged water "is going to be a hard one." Marshall wastewater carries a lot of chlorides, primarily from the salt used in residential and commercial water softeners.
Currently, the limit for chlorides in water discharged into the river is 700 parts per million, VanMoer said. The proposed new limit is 261 parts per million.
It won't be simple to bring down the salt levels in discharged water, VanMoer said.
"Apparently, RO (reverse osmosis) systems are the only way we can remove chlorides," he said. But the equipment and maintenance for a reverse osmosis system would be expensive. Another possible option could be for Marshall Municipal Utilities to soften raw water at the city water plant.
VanMoer said the proposed new limits for substances like copper and phosphorus would also be expensive. For example, treating water with phosphates helps cut down on the amount of copper from pipes that flakes off into wastewater, but then the phosphates would have to be removed before the water could be discharged into the river. Meanwhile, cutting down on phosphorus in discharged water to comply with the new, lower limits would cost Marshall about $300,000 a year, VanMoer said. The cost to comply with the current phosphorus limit is about $40,000 a year.
Olson and VanMoer said Marshall isn't alone in struggling with more stringent water-quality standards. The challenge is statewide For example, the city of St. Peter installed a costly reverse osmosis system at its water treatment plant in recent years, they said.
VanMoer said the city will be asking the MPCA for more time to do water testing and come up with possible solutions to the compliance problem. Hopefully the extension would give time to pinpoint the source of copper in Marshall wastewater and to explore doing additional water softening at the MMU water treatment facility.
Council members also heard an update on Avera Marshall Regional Medical Center from Avera Marshall CEO and President Mary Maertens. Maertens said Avera Marshall continued to grow in 2013, with the addition of 13 new physicians and new clinic locations opened in Redwood Falls and Ivanhoe, as well as new programs like palliative care. The number of local clinic visits had also gone up compared to 2012, she said.
Raising funds and breaking ground for the new cancer institute were two big achievements for Avera Marshall in the past year, Maertens said. Construction of the institute is under way, and Maertens said the hospital was in the process of commissioning a linear accelerator, the machine that will provide radiation therapy treatments for cancer patients.

Fly fishing festival coming to Keene Valley
The Mountaineer gear shop in Keene Valley is widely known among the Adirondack hiking, climbing and skiing community. Now, it's trying to re-establish its foothold in the fly fishing world.
On Saturday, it will take a big step in that direction by hosting the inaugural Adirondack Fly Fishing Festival.
Mike "Kaz" Kazmierezak, who heads up the The Mountaineer's fishing department, said the store is trying to get back to its fishing roots. The fishing aspect of the store was a big passion of George McClelland, the original owner who passed away in 2010 at the age of 91. His son, Vinny, now runs the store.
Being in charge of the department is a natural fit for Kazmierezak because he used to be a fly fishing guide and run the fishing department in a store in Potsdam. He's guided trips on many northern Adirondack rivers, including the St. Regis, Salmon and West Branch of the St. Regis.
"For me, personally it's been fun to re-engage with it, connect with a lot of people that I used to work with," he said.
Kazmierezak said he thought the festival would be a good way to engage the public and promote the activity. The Mountaineer has a strong history of running outdoor sports-related events. Currently, they host three other events. One for mountaineering and ice climbing, a backcountry skiing festival and a trail run. All have been very successful and have served as fundraisers for various nonprofit causes. The fly fishing festival will raise funds for the AuSable and Boquet River associations.
This festival is expected to be smaller than some of the other events, but there will be several opportunities for the public to learn about fishing.
There will be rod demonstration, free casting clinics led by local guide Ken Kalil, and local fly tying demonstrations. No registration is required for the free demos and clinics.
Those looking for more in-depth instruction can register for the all-day Fly Fishing School led by local guide and Federal of Fly Fishers Casting Instructor Stan Oliva. Oliva will cover the basics of equipment, fly selection and fishing knots.
Half of the day will be spent in the classroom and half will be spent outside practicing casting techniques, including the overhead cast, false cast and roll cast. Pre-registration is required for the Fly Fishing School. The price for this full-day of instruction is $100.
The Festival will cap off with a fly fishing film and reception at the Keene Arts Playhouse, located on Route 73 in Keene (between Stewart's and Town Hall). The main movie will be "SOULFISH 2" by Mikey Wier, a Patagonia fly fishing ambassador.
Tickets are $10 at the door, with proceeds benefiting the AuSable and Boquet River Associations.
There will also be a raffle of gear provided by sponsors Patagonia, The Drake, Loon Outdoors, ECHO, Cortland, Ex Officio and Chota.
More detailed registration information is available at www.mountaineer.com/fly-fishing-festival.

Rated 1 out of 5�by aaguirr Jump Rope? More like Stupid Rope. This jump rope is great! You flick your wrists, the rope goes up, and 45 minutes later, when the yarn-esque rope decides to float back down to earth, you get to jump over it and repeat the process! The non-swiveling attachments to the balsa wood handles, create a pleasant nightmare in trying to get the fluffy line moving in the first place! I suggest this product as a Christmas present to your least favorite child. May 27, 2016
Rated 1 out of 5�by asdfgh A piece of yarn with handles I bought this product expecting it to be an actual jump rope. Unfortunately its just yarn with wooden handles. I would recommend a jump rope with a rubber rope. August 1, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5�by pjalcan47 doesn't hold up to multiple use I have had this rope for a few years but used it sporadically. This January I started a 30 day challenge that progressively added 1 minute of jump rope at the first day of each week and jump that time daily throughout the week. By the second week the metal parts were twisting and sticking during the 2 minutes of jumping...I was able to work through that but by the 3rd week the handle on one side started to come off so I wasn't able to jump for 3 minutes straight. I tried to bend the parts to reattach the handle but it's not working. Time to get a different rope for my workouts. January 24, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by czarczar88 Like that fact that is just a rope - not plastic. I looked everywhere to buy just a jump rope that isn't plastic. I was so happy when the sales person at Dicks sporting goods mentioned that we can order a rope one on-line at the store so we did. January 19, 2015

1994 BMW 750iL ProblemsMushy Road Feel and/or Shuddering in the Steering Over Bumbs
Loss of Power Steering Fluid Due to Leaking Hoses
The front thrust rod bushings—also referred to as tension strut bushings—are known to fail occasionally. The oil-filled rubber mounts weaken and crack over time, causing a mushy road feel and shuddering in the steering wheel when going over bumps.
A fluid leak may develop from one or more power steering hose. When a leak is being repaired, it is not uncommon for multiple hoses to be replaced.
